But it is also true that many children today are using computers at schools before they can write. What does this mean for the future? Are these children lucky or not? Many people who do not know about computers think of them as machines that children play with. They worry that children do not learn from experience but just from pressing a button and that this is not good for them. They think that children are growing not knowing about the real world.But people who understand more about computers say that computers can be very good for children. A computer can help them to learn about the real world more quickly, to learn what they want to learn and think for themselves. And for the future, don’t we need people who can think clearly, who know how to get information quickly and use it well?

Teenagers need nine to ten hours. Andpre-school children need more than 10 hours of sleep a night.Experts say the quality（质量）of our sleep becomes poor as we grow older. This happens because the brain unit that controls sleep begins to weaken slowly as we age.Experts say the change starts in our 30s. By the time we reach our 50s, a person may have lost 50 percent of his or her ability to have a restful sleep.These people have trouble falling and staying asleep through the night. From middle age on, these problems only get worse, and they can have a bad effect on their health.Signs that show you may not be getting enough sleep:You’re always hungry or you’ve got unwanted weight.

The idea is that we will be happier if we often do inexpensive, easy-to-do activities.However, the problem for many of us is that we don’t know what makes us happy.When I was in college, my mother gave me some wise advice. She said,“Before you get married and live with another person, you need to spend some time living by yourself. You need to get to know yourself.”So I did exactly that. For almost two years, I lived by myself. I found that I loved to spend hours looking around in bookstores. I also loved to spend an afternoon just walking around the city. And every so often, I needed the moments of pure silence.But, of course, we all don’t enjoy the same things.A simple pleasure for me would be to spend an hour reading a book in my backyard. However, that same activity would give my husband no pleasure. We are all so different.Sometimes, we already know what makes us happy. However, as life gets busier and we get older, we put aside our simple pleasures.For example, I had to give up playing the flute（长笛）when I started working and had family responsibilities. Playing my flute seemed selfish（自私的）when no one else in my family could join, but three years ago I returned to playing the flute. I regret having ever stopped.Simple pleasures are neither simple nor universal（普遍的）.Our simple pleasures are a reflection（反映）of who we are. They are different activities that give each of us joy.Certainly there are some common topics—such as being out in nature, doing something creative, or enjoying music and literature—but beyond that, each of us has to find out what it is that feeds our souls（灵魂）.That isn’t always easy in a world in which we have to consider other people’s needs and opinions as well asour own, but enjoying simple pleasures is something that each of us deserves（应得）.Think of it as your right, and say to yourself, “Today, I’m going to discover what my simple pleasures are.”12.What is the writer’s opinion about simple pleasures?A.They change as we grow older.B.They can reflect our characters.C.It’s expensive to achieve them.D.People with no responsibilities can enjoy them.13.What does the writer want to tell by sharing her experience of living alone?A.Wise people often take their mothers’advice.B.A couple don’t necessarily share the same interests.C.It’s necessary to live alone before getting married.D.It’s worth spending time alone enjoying simple pleasures.14.What can we learn from the writer’s experience of playing the flute?A.We should develop an interest that others can take part in.B.Making our family happy is better than making ourselves happy.C.Keeping our interests alive is a good method to make ourselves happy.D.Family responsibilities are more important than our own interests.15.In the last two paragraphs, the writerA.suggests readers pay no attention to others’opinionsB.encourages readers to get simple pleasures activelyC.teaches readers to balance others’needs with their own needsD.reminds readers to realize simple pleasures are the most important part of life参考答案A1-3DACB[主旨大意] 本文是一篇说明文,阐述了不同年龄段的人每晚需要多长时间的睡眠以及睡眠不足有哪些表现。

2019中考英语阅读理解编习题（十二）【实战训练】 A（2019中考选练）Are you a good receiver? It might sound like a funny question but it is an important one that each of us should ask ourselves.Strangely, most of us are better givers than receivers. We give to our family, our friends and even charities, and opposite to what we might think, most of us are actually very good at giving. But receiving is another matter. We often feel a little uneasy when receiving, although it is not very noticeable. Even praise gets deflected（转向）when it comes our way. When someone praises us for helping him move or clean up the house, we will possibly say, “Ah, it was nothing.” When someone praises the coat we are wearing, we may mention how we bought it at a discount instead of simply enjoying t he praise. Actually, the praise is a gift to us, and when we don’t receive it properly, we are dishonoring the giver.Giving is easy, as there is much pleasure in giving, but receiving is an art that takes practice. To be a good receiver requires a sense of close relationship with the giver. It is always a pleasure for a giver to see the gift received in a pleasant way. And this is also the best way for a receiver to honor the giver and give him something back.Many relationships are not so good not because people are not giving to each other, but because they are not receiving from each other well. We should receive the love, respect the praise, and give thanks every time giving happens. We should practice receiving all the pleasures that happen to us every day, instead of taking them for granted. Think of how many simple everyday gifts we are being given all the time: the beauty of nature, art and inspiring（激励人的）conversations. But are we truly receiving them when they happen to us, or are we busy with other matters, not noticing? We should master the art of receiving: accept the gifts life offers us and show our appreciation for them.We are taught that it is better to give than to receive. But this suggests that there is something wrong with receiving. There is nothing wrong with receiving. It is better to give and receive. Let life shower us with gifts, pleasures, joys, surprises, both large and small, and let us take notice of all these things and accept them happily and thankfully. The more we can receive, the more we can give back, but giving more does not necessarily mean receiving more. We must remember it is harderto receive than to give, and try to practice receiving. This practice will benefit us greatly, making us become good receivers as well as good givers.1. According to Paragraph 2, what do we possibly do when we are praised?A. Honor the giver publicly.B. Show our pleasure clearly.C. Receive the praise uncomfortably.D. Express our disagreement properly.2. The expression “taking them for granted” probably means “_______”.A. looking for them with expectationB. depending on them with satisfactionC. getting away from them without regretD. benefiting from them without appreciation3. What can we learn from the passage?A. People usually can receive more by giving more.B. People usually try to receive as much as possible.C. People should give a gift back when receiving one.D. People can improve relationships by receiving well.4. What is the best title for the passage?A. Be a Good Receiver and GiverB. Better to Give Than to ReceiveC. Better to Give, Better to ReceiveD. Be a Receiver Rather Than a Giver参考答案1. C 2. D 3. D 4. A【实战训练】 BWhen you are learning English, you find it not clever to put an English sentence, word for word, into your own language. Take the sentence “ How do you do?” as an example. If you look up each word in the dictionary, one at a time, what is your translation? It must be a wrong sentence in your own language.Languages do not just have different sounds, they are different in many ways. It’s important to master(掌握) the rules(规则) for word order in the study of English, too. If the speaker puts wordsin a wrong order, the li stener can’t understand the speaker’s sentence easily. Sometimes when the order of words in an English sentence is changed, the meaning of the sentence changes, But sometimes the order is changed, the meaning of the sentence doesn’t change. Let’s see the d ifference between the two pairs of sentences.“She only likes apples.”“Only she likes apples.”“I have seen the film already.”“I have already seen the film.”When you are learning English, you must do your best to get the spirit(精神实质) of the language and use it as the English speaker does.1. From the passage we know that _______when we are learning English.A. we shouldn’t put every word into our own languageB. we should look up every word in the dictionaryC. we need to put every word into our own languageD. we must read word by word2. The writer thinks it is _______ in learning English.A. difficult to understand different soundsB. possible to remember the word orderC. important to master the rules in different waysD. easy to master the rules for word order3. We can learn from the passage that ________.A. the meaning of an English sentence always changes with the order of the wordsB. The order of words can never change the meaning of an English sentenceC. sometimes different order of words has a different meaningD. if the order of words is different, the meaning of the sentence must be different4. “She only likes apples.” ________.A. is the same as “Only she likes apples.”B. is different from “Only she likes apples.”C. means “She likes fruit except apples.”D. means “She doesn’t like apples.”5. Which is the best title (标题) for this passage?A. Different Orders, Different MeaningsB. How to Speak EnglishC. How to Put English into Our Own LanguageD. How to Learn English【答案及解析】1. A. 从整篇文章我们知道，在学习英语翻译句子时，我们不能逐字逐词译成母语，这样做是不明智的，结果是译成错误的句子。

2019中考英语：阅读理解（限时:30分钟）AHave you ever been on a student exchange program? How useful was it? We asked three people for their opinions.EllenI spent 8 days in Germany when I was studying for my Level A. I went to school every day, and spent the evenings with a family. It was great because I had to speak German all the time. However, the most useful thing was that I was paying more attention to communicating in the language, instead of speaking perfectly correct German. I was really glad that people could understand what I was saying. I’d certainly introduce it to other students studying languages.FrankI went on an exchange with my class for a week in Japan. Before the exchange, I thought my understanding of grammar was pretty good, but I had much trouble in listening and speaking. So, what I thought most meaningful was that I had no choice but to use everyday language skills, rather than the language from books. If I had the opportunity, I’d certainly take part in another language exchange.AliceI took part in a French exchange. It lasted two weeks, and I stayed with my exchange family in a small town just outside Paris. I’m quite a shy person,so in the first few days, I was kind of nervous, but then it was fine. I love French and my French has always been good. But the exchange really helped develop my speaking skills, and made me a much more confident（自信的）person. It felt great to be able to talk with French people. I also found that everyone who took part in the exchange did a lot better in their end-of-year exams.1.How long did Frank stay in Japan?A.For a week.B.For eight days.C.For two weeks.D.For half a year.2.What did Alice think about her exchange?A.It developed her listening skills.B.It made her more confident.C.It taught her exam skills.D.It took too much of her time.3.All three people would most likely describe their exchangeas .A.tiringB.excitingC.boringD.helpful4.Who will be interested in the passage above?A.Students who are learning a foreign language.B.Students who want to work as teachers later.C.Students who are interested in traveling abroad.D.Students who are not doing well in their studies.BThere are different ways to celebrate Teachers’Day in different countries across the world.China （September 10）In China, Teachers’Day is celebrated on September 10. It was first celebrated in 1931. In 1939, the day was set on August 27, Confucius’birthday. In 1985, it was decided that the day was to be celebrated on September 10. The day is celebrated in almost all schools in the country where the students show their appreciation to the teachers, such as presenting the gifts including cards and flowers.Malaysia （May 16）In Malaysia, Teachers’Day is known as “Hari Guru”and is celebrated every year on May 16. The celebrations are usually held on May 16, or earlier if it falls on a Saturday or Sunday.

They were on their way to the airport to catch the early flight to Orlando.As soon as the plane took off, Nancy started to complain about getting an earache caused by the pressure change（气压变化）, while John was so busy looking out of the window, and telling his mom that the cars on the highway looked so tiny from the plane. About half an hour later, they were both sound asleep. They slept throughout the flight, and woke up only when their mother told them that the plane was about to land.Once they landed, John asked, “Are we going to Disneyland now, Daddy?”“No, not now, John. We’ll go tomorrow,”the father replied.“But why not now, Daddy?”Nancy asked.“Because we have to check into the hotel first, and then get something to eat, and by then, it’ll be too late to go to the park,”her mother said.The next morning, John got up at 6:00 a.m. and woke everyone up. “Up, up, everyone! We have to go. We don’t want to be late,”he shouted.So, all of them woke up, took their showers, had their breakfast at a nearby restaurant, and went to Disneyland.

You probably see at least one of them every day and, over your lifetime, they may influence you more than anyone else you will meet.Moms and Dads need to care for their kids from the minute they were born. It’s a parent’s job to love and help kids—and most parents will try their best to do this, even when the “kids”grow up and have children of their own. That means you have many years ahead to share with your mom and dad.Here are some ways you can stay close, get along, and build a strongrelationship（关系）.Spend time together. Don’t play a computer game or watch TV by yourself. Ask your mom and dad to play with you, go outside together, play a game, or read a book out loud. Try to spend more time together.Share your feelings and ask for help. Many kids say they’d like their parents to help them when they’re unhappy. Tell them if you’re sad or have a problem. They’ll be happy to help you.Be kind and caring. Little things might mean a lot to your mom or dad. You can brighten a parent’s day with a hug, a card, or a joke. It’s also lovely when a kid cleans up his or her room without being asked. It’s important to show that you care for each other. Kids and parents show their love by respecting（尊重）each other, and being caring, polite and thoughtful.Do your best at whatever you do. You don’t have to be perfect, but when you do your best, you make your parents proud. It makes them happy to see how you’re turning into a great kid. Why? Because it lets them know you’re doing a good job.12.Your parents are two of the most important people in your life because they .A.see you every dayB.have a duty to care for youC.need your helpD.influence you more than anyone else13.Most parents even when their kids have grown up.A.stop helping their kidsB.try their best to help their kidsC.leave their kidsD.are busy doing exercise14.What should kids do when they’re unhappy?A.Watch TV by themselves.B.Play a game with their parents.C.Tell their parents and ask for help.D.Be kind to their parents.15.Which can be the best title of the passage?A.Getting Along with Your ParentsB.Talking to Your ParentsC.When Your Parents FightD.Spending More Time with Your Parents参考答案A[主旨大意] 本文讲述了三名学生对交换生活动的看法。

2019年中考英语：阅读理解优编题（10）及答案【实战训练】 A（2019中考教育类选练）Last week, 169 Junior 1 students at No. 35 Middle School of Shenyang took their first no-teacher exam. After the teacher handed out the exam paper, he left the room and never came back. A student collected in the papers when the exam ended."That test was not only a test of knowledge, but also a test of moral (道德). We wanted to show students how important honesty (诚实) is," said the school's headmaster. The school says no cheating (作弊)happened in the test. Next year, it wants 80% of its exams to be without teachers. But students have different ideas."I was happy and excited during the exam because my teachers trusted (信任) me," said Lang Yudan, a 13-year-old girl in Class 11."Schools must trust students a lot not to use invigilators (监考人). But I think it is too early. Some students will cheat if there are no invigilators. And the students will not be able to ask for help when needed,” said Hua Sha."I don' t like having invigilators in exams. When they walk around the classroom, they make me nervous. I would get higher marks without them in the room because I would feel more relaxed," Liu Qingxi said."I think it's very important to have invigilators in exams. Many students want to check their answers with each other after they have finished papers. And they can also keep the classroom in order when something unusual happens. They may make me nervous, but I still think we need them," Shangguan Yuan said.Not using invigilators may be a good idea. But before using it, schools must tell students the importance of honesty and try to find ways to solve something unusual in exams.( ) 1. The passage mainly (主要地) talks about ______________.A. how to pass an examB. how to make students honestC. whether there is cheating in examsD. whether invigilators are needed in exams ( )2.

Where is the 10?”“I don’t know where the 10 is. Let’s just subtract 179 from 202. Nine from two is three. You carry one and add it to seven. Eight from zero is two. The answer is 23.”“We can’t do it that way. We have to use the 10.”“Well, I’m going to call your teacher to see how she subtracts 179 from 202.”Over the telephone, I said that I was having a bit of trouble with the homework she had given to my d aughter. The teacher said, “In the right-hand column (栏) we have units of one. The two in that column counts for two ones. The zero in the center countsfor zero tens. The two in the left-hand column counts for hundreds. Are you clear?” But I didn’t think I was clear.I hung up and found my way to the medicine box. My head was now hurting.

Are you different because you are the first, second, or third child in your family—or maybe the last of nine?A study found that first­borns have an average(平均的) IQ that is three points higher than people who fall into a different place in the birth order, perhaps because first­borns often help younger brothers and sisters, which improves their ow n skills. In 2007, an international organization of CEOs found that 43% of CEOs are first­borns, 33% are middle children, and 23% are last­borns. First­borns are more likely (可能的) to be doctors and astronauts and get higher pay.If first­borns are more successful, last­borns are generally more agreeable. They are also more likely to be funny, possibly to get attention from all the bigger people at the dinner table. Mark Twain and Stephen Colbert were both the youngest in large families, and Jim Carrey was the youngest of four. According to a 2007 Time magazine article “The power of Birth Order.”，last­borns are more likely to be artists and successful businessmen.Then there are the middle children: we have not ignored(忽视) them! Many middle children are short of one­on­one time with their parents. They often feel short­changed: the oldest gets more rights, and the youngest is spoiled(宠坏的). Though they may be ignored, middle children are more likely to grow into easygoing adults.Many factors(因素) make us who we are, but if the research is correct, birth order may be one of the most important factors.1．Who is most likely to be a CEO?A．A first­born.B．A second­born.C．A third­born.D．A last­born.2．What can we learn about Jim Carrey?A．He was likely to be given low pay.B．He was likely to be agreeable.C．He was a first­born.D．He was a middle child.3．We can learn from the research that birth order ．A．has no influence on IQB．matters a lot at the dinner tableC．may decide who we areD．is a factor in making us powerful4．The underlined word “short­changed” means “” in Chinese.A．受亏待的B．受控制的C．受宠爱的D．受欢迎的5．What would be the best title for the text?A．Where Is Your Place in the Family?B．Who Improves Your Social Skills?C．What Makes You Successful in Life?D．How Can You grow into a Big Man?BLittle stream ran down from a high mountain through many villages and forests. Thenit reached a desert，“I went through so many difficulties. I should have no problem crossing the desert，” she thought. As she started, she found herself slowly disappearing into the sand. After many tries, she still failed. “Maybe I can't reach the ocean，” she said sadly to herself.At this time, a deep voice said，“If a breeze(微风) can cross the desert, so can a river.”It was the voice of the desert. But the little stream answered, “A breeze can fly, but I can't.” “That's because you can't give up what you are. Let yourself evaporate(蒸发) into the breeze, and it can take you across，” said the desert. “Give up what I am now? No! No！” The little stream could not accept this idea. “The breeze can carry the vapor(蒸汽) across the desert and let it leave as rain. The rain will form a river again，” said the desert. “And whether you are a river or vapor, your nature never changes.” Hearing this, the little stream went into the open arms of the breeze. It carried her to the next stage of her life.The course of our lives is like the experience of the little stream. If you want to go through difficulties in your life to head for success, you should also change the way you are.6．The little stream planned to reach ．A．the forest B．the riverC．the desert D．the ocean7．The little stream before she crossed the desert.A．didn't meet any difficultiesB．was confident about herselfC．was worried about herselfD．knew well about the desert8．At first, the little stream didn't accept the desert's advice because ．A．she failed many timesB．she was afraid of the natureC．she wasn't able to change her natureD．she wouldn't change the way she was9．The little stream finally crossed the desert by ．A．evaporating into the breeze B．forming a riverC．disappearing into the sand D．changing her nature10．What does the story mainly tell us?A．The road to success isn't always easy and smooth.B．Whatever others say, we should always be ourselves.C．To succeed, we should think about things in a different way.D．To succeed, we should follow others' advice.C阅读C篇，判断正(A)误(B)。
