Later people used dogs for hunting(打猎) of other animals, and the dog didn't eat what they got until their master(主人) agreed. So dogs were used for driving sheep and guarding chickens. But now people in the towns and cities do not need dogs to fight other animals. They keep them to frighten thieves, but the most important reason is that people feel lonely in the city. For a child, a dog is the best friend when he has no friends to play with. For a young wife, a dog is her child when she doesn't have her own.

Have you ever noticed(注意) that there are a lot of signs around you and that you receive messages from them all the time ?People can communicate in many other ways.

阅读理解大全(一)When you are learning English, you find it not clever to translate an English sentence, word for word, into your own language. Take the sentence "How do you do " for 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 don't just have different sounds, they are different in many ways. It's important to master the rules for word order in the study of English, too. If the speakers put words in a wrong order , the listener 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 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 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 languageB. we should look up every word it the dictionaryC. we need to put every word into our own language( )2.We can learn from the passage that .A. if the order of words is different, the meaning of the sentence must be differentB. the order of words can never change the meaning of an English sentenceC. sometimes different order of words has a different meaning( )3.

He must change his reading speed to fit his purpose and the material he is reading, just as a driver does fit the road situation. A good reader may be able to read a thousand words per minute (WPM) , but he won't use that speed for everything he reads. A good reader doing research reading in the library may read at the speed of 1,000 words per minute as he looks for materials for a report. But once he finds something that is useful to him, hemay need to slow down to 100 WPM . A good reader may read newspaper and magazine articles at 600 WPM . But it may take him 150 WPM to read his science or maths text . Just as a driver has a wide change of speed , so has a good reader .( )1.According to the writer , good readers can .A. read at 1,000 WPMB.spend more time readingC.change the speed as needed ( )2.The passage tells us that the speed of reading depends on .a.the number of booksb.the purpose of readingc.the time when you're readingd.the material that you're readinge.the place where you're readingA. a and bB.b and dC. b , c and d( )3.A good reader may use the highest speed of reading when .A. he is trying to find materials for his reportB. he is trying to work out a math problemC. he reads the material most useful to him( )4.The passage suggests that a good driver should .A. be able to driver at a high speedB. be good at driving on a country roadC. be good at changing driving speed( )5.This passage is mainly about .A. the importance of having different reading speedB. the relation(关系)between reading and driving speedC. the difference between driving and reading(二) C B A C A(三)Captain Good FellowDo your children enjoy interesting stories, funny games, and exciting dances Captain Goodfellow will be ready to teach all these things to children at the City Theatre on Saturday morning at 10:00 , free.Films at the MuseumTwo European films will be shown on Saturday afternoon at the Museum Theatre.

It was about 15 miles away on the other side of the hill. There we felt sure that we would find a bed for the night . Darkness fell along the narrow road to the hill. As we climbed higher, it became colder and rain began to fall. It was difficult at times to see the road, so I asked my friend John to drive slowly.Now we traveled for about 20miles but we could not find the town. We were beginning to feel worried. Then the car stopped. We found we were out of petrol, so we decided to spend the night in the car.After eating some bread, I tried to go to sleep at once, but John, a poor sleeper, got out of the car after a few minutes and went for a walk up the hill.

You can use it instead of many words, such as "new" or"surprising".Here's an interesting story we can use to show the way the word is used. A teacher asked her student to write about the waterfall(瀑布) they had visited. On the student's paper was just the one sentence,"It's so cool."Maybe he thought it was the best way to show what he saw and felt.But the story also shows a scarcity(缺乏)of words. Without "cool", some people have no words to show the same meaning. So it is quite important to keep some credibility(可信性).Can you think of many other words that make your life as colorful as the word "cool" I can. And I think they are also very cool.1.We know that the word "cool" has had ________.A. only one meaningB. no meaningC. many different meanings2.In the passage, the word "express" means "_______".A. seeB. showC. know3.If you are ________ something, you may say,"It's cool."A. interested inB. angry aboutC. worried about4.The writer takes an example to show he is ________ the way the word is used.A. pleased withB. strange toC. worried about5.In the passage, the writer suggests(暗示)that the word "cool"___________.A. can be used instead of many wordsB. usually means something interestingC. can make your life colorful(五)C B A A C(六)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 is," said Cai Wenguo , 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, 99 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 tocheck 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 talks about ______________.A. how to pass an examB. how to make students honestC. whether invigilators are needed in exams( ) 2.

In the sentence "And they can also keep the classroom in order when something unusual happens" "they" refers to (指)_____________.A. studentsB. headmastersC. invigilators(六)C B B A C(七)Do you wish you had a magic gourd (葫芦), to help you get everything you want You may think twice and say "no" after you watch the planned Disney film "The Secret of the Magic Gourd"!It's the first project Disney will co-produce in China.

The meeting, the Sixth World Trade Organization (WTO) Ministerial Conference (世界贸易组织第六次部长级会议), will be held from December 13 to 18.Poor countries say that the WTO's international trade rules are not fair. The rules allow rich countries, like the US and those of the EU, to give money, or subsidies (津贴), to their farmers. With the subsidies, farmers are able to sell their crops at lower prices.As a result, world prices go down. Farmers in poor countries that don't have subsidies get less money and even lose their livelihoods.Since China joined the WTO in 2001, for example, lots of subsidized US cotton (棉花) has been sold in the country. Cotton prices fell from about 6 yuan to less than 3 yuan per kg in 2001 and 2002.Every year, rich countries support their farmers with more than US$300 billion. During the coming Hong Kong meeting, poorer nations will ask the rich nations to get rid of the subsidies.Zhang Xiangchen, a senior official from China's Ministry of Commerce (商务部), said China believes that rich countries should end their subsidies by 2010.1. What problem will the Hong Kong meeting try to solveA. Air pollution.B. International trade.C. Agricultural modernization.2. Who might the meeting benefit (有利于)A. Farmers in rich countries.B.

We have to be careful when we drive them or ride in them.It’s always a good idea to put on your seat belt when you’re ina car. Why? Think about this example: You put an egg on a skateb oard and give it a push. If the skateboard hits a stone, it will stop, but the egg won’t.It will fly through the air, hit the gro und and break.Now, think what would happen if you tied the egg to the skateboard. When the skateboard hits a stone, the egg won’t go flying, it wi ll stay safely on the skateboard.Volvo, a famous Swedish carmaker, was the first to use seat belts i n 1849.Air bags are also very important for car safety, because sometimes a seat belt isn’t enough. If the car is going really fast and runs into something, seat belts could even hurt the people who wear the m.Most newer cars have air bags in front of and next to the seats. When a car hits something, its air bags will come out quickly —in less than one second —to keep the people inside safe.。

( A )Whenever the sun dropped and the blue sky came up, my father and I used to climb the mountain near my house. Walking together, my father and I used to have a lot of conversations through which I learned lessons from his experiences. He always told me, “You should have goals like climbing the mountain.” Without the mountain-climbing that we both enjoyed, we couldn’t have enough time to spend together because my father was very busy.

It was so challenging for me because I was only ten years old. During the first few hours of climbing, I enjoyed the flowers and trees, and the birds’ singing. But as time passed, I got a pain in both of my legs. I wanted to quit climbing, but my father said to me, “You can always see a beautiful sky at the top of the mountain, but you can’t see it before you reach the top. Only there can you see all of the nice things, which is just like your life.”At that time, I was too young to understand his words. But later after that, I got to know the meaning of hope in life.

Sometimes, on grey, rainy days, your mood level is lower than on bright, sunny days. Is this a coincidence(巧合), or is there some science behind this? Would you like to know more about how the weather can affect how you feel?According to a recent study, there is a connection between weather and moods. Going to a warm place in the middle of winter can make our moods better. Pleasant weather has been proved to improve moods and memory. However, extremely hot weather can actually make us feel more tired and bored, spoiling our moods.In the study, people who spent time outdoors in warm weather were happier than those who spent all day inside.The best temperature for humans is about 22.2℃. That explains why people in southern California are happy all the time. To improve his or her moods, a person must spend at least 30 minutes outside in warm, sunny weather. Spending time indoors when the weather outside is so nice tends to lower moods.Maybe just the activities connected with being outside affect our moods. Warm weather is connected with the beach, fun outdoor sports and so on. It brings back childhood memories of playing outside all day. Who doesn't love that?Of course, we can wake up every day and decide how we will feel that day. If it's rainy, that won't necessarily make us unhappy. We'll just have to bring our umbrellas out and cheer up those who are feeling sad!(1)According to the study, we may feel on extremely hot days.A. happierB. more boredC. more excitedD. more pleased(2)Warm weather can help improve our moods and according to the passage.A. sightB. memoryC. heightD. hearing(3)Why are people in southern California happy all the time?A.

We see it any place we go and, in fact, almost all of us carry some piece of technology with us every time we leave the house. What I always forget, though, is just how useful and powerful technology can be when we want to help others.There is not a single room in my house that does not have some electronic devices (设备)lying around in it. Whenever I am at home, I am almost always using at least one electronic device. If you walked into my living room on any given day, you would find that, first, I have the television on. At the same time, I usually have my laptop resting on my knee, or I will be using my mobile phone. Even when I'm not at home I am always using my phone, and at work or in cafés, I sit down and connect to the local wireless network on my laptop.I must say that I waste a lot of time on the computer and the time I spend on it could be much better spent if I were to take up a little online volunteering.The technology we carry about everywhere can have a great power to do good for the world and to help others and recently I discovered just how much online volunteering there is to do in the world. From using your language skills to do translations, to developing and managing projects and helping with IT work, there is so much that so many people can do to help people in their own countries and across the world. The United Nations, in fact, has a huge page with "Volunteers Recruited" on its website.This work can support the poor and help charities who cannot pay for staff members. Many organizations only require you to work an hour a week﹣some even less. And the support provided by online volunteers can really help make a difference to those in need.(1)From Paragraph 2, we can know that the writer .A. is a computer engineerB. works in a caféC. uses technology a lotD. likes modern music(2)The underlined word" Recruited" in Paragraph 4 means" ".A. OrderedB. VisitedC. WantedD. Warned(3)In the writer's opinion, people should spend more time with technology.A. working on computer programsB. keeping the Internet safeC. inventing electronic productsD. helping people in need(4)What can be the best title for the passage?A. Online VolunteeringB. Internet OrganizationsC. Website DesignD. Online Translation6.阅读理解My 14-year-old son, John, and I saw the coat at the same time in a second-hand clothing store. It stood out among big and old coats. It was so beautiful and had an unbelievable price, $ 28. I looked at my son and we both said nothing, but John's eyes shone. Dark, woolen coats were popular with teenage boys, but new ones could cost several hundred dollars. This coat was even better. John tried it on and turned from side to side, eyeing himself in the mirror. It fit him so well. John wore the coal to school the next clay. After he came home, I asked. "Did the kids like your coat?""They loved it," he said with a big grin.Over the next few weeks, John changed. He was polite, less argumentative, more thoughtful, and much happier. "Good dinner, Mom," he would say every evening. Without a word of complaining, he would carry in wood for the stove. One day when I suggested that he might start on his homework before dinner, John, who always put things off, said, "You're right. I guess I will." When I mentioned this change to one of his teachers, she joked that the coat must have changed him.John and I both know we should never judge a person by his clothes. But it is true that when wearing beautiful and suitable clothes, we may try to be better in thought, speech and behavior to match what is on the inside to what is on the outside.(1)What can we learn from the first paragraph?A. The price of the coat was too high.B. John liked the coat very much.C. They often went shopping together.D.

Life is full of possibilities when we are young.C. We should not judge people by their appearance.D. It's a good choice to try different things in our lives.7.阅读理解Stonehenge means "hanging stones". They stood in a circle, with 30 more stones lying on top to form a ring of rocks. There was also an inner circle built with similar stones. The stones set up in a trilithon(巨石牌坊) pattern.A trilithon is made of two stone pillars with a stab of rock laid across the top. The stones weigh up to 20 tons each. People wonder how the huge rocks were placed that way.Historians agree that Stonehenge was built in three different stages. The first stage took place about 5, 000 years ago. At that time, a large circular earth wall was made. Historians believe the wall was dug and cut with tools made form anglers(鹿角)of red deer. The earth wall was about 98m in diameter(直径) a 5-meter-tall stone was placed near the center. Then, they had to transport the large blue stones (up to 4 tons) 384 kilometers to Stonehenge. Experts think they might be moved across ice and snow. The ground in winter in this area is usually full of ice and snow, making it easier to move the rocks. The next task was to stand the stones up. The most difficult task was putting the top stones in place. Each one of these tasks took a lot of planning and a lot of strength, but the workers of Stonehenge were excellent builders.Why was the monument built? Some scientists think it's a burial ground. There are over 400 graves (burial sits) nearby. A man was buried with two gold earrings which are the oldest gold ever found in Britain (dated to 2470 BC). Others think Stonehenge was built by early astronomers. Scientists believe that when a person stands in the center of the monument, the changing of seasons can be seen. Certain stones mark the location of the rising and setting moon in midwinter. Other stones mark the rising and setting sun in midsummer. The ancient people held religious ceremonies on these days. These ceremonies probably asked the gods to bring good weather for crops and to protect the people from bad weather.Stonehenge is an engineering success. Thousands of years later, it still stands. As a calendar, Stonehenge is very accurate. It shows that early people had a deep understanding of the movements to the sun and the moon. They didn't have machines or computers, but Stonehenge shows people could do many things using only their muscles and their brains.(1)he first building stage of Stonehenge was ________.A. to dig and cut the earth wallB. to move the blue stones across the iceC. to stand the stones upD. to put the top stones in place(2)Which evidence(证据) is given to support the idea that Stonehenge was a burial ground?A. Stonehenge was made of stones.B. It is a place for celebrating ceremonies.C. The passing of seasons can be seen there.D. Two gold earrings were found in a grave.(3)The underlined word "accurate" in the last paragraph probably means "________".A. correctB. strangeC. hugeD. heavy(4)Stonehenge was probably NOT originally built for ________.A. touristsB. religious reasonsC. a burial groundD. telling the seasons8.阅读理解I'm sure most people like music.

九年级期末题型突破13 阅读理解(C篇)阅读单选(C篇)一Smile Train is a charity (慈善团体) that helps the millions of children around the world, who suffer from a facial defect (缺陷). The defect happens when a baby’s top lip or mouth doesn’t form properly before birth. Eating and drinking is very difficult for these babies. The charity provides free operations, which give these children a new smile, and with it, new hope and a new beginning.Children with the defect need all the help. Although many sufferers are accepted by their families, sadly, others are not. In some countries, children with this defect are often abandoned at birth because their parents feel ashamed of them or cannot afford the operations. The good news is that the operation is not difficult. It takes less than an hour and costs the family nothing. The charity raises money and finds the right medical volunteers to perform the operations.A Smile Train doctor from the UK said, “Each child who has the operation is given a second chance at life. After years of staying at home, the children can finally go to school and be happy. Every year I perform hundreds of operations free of cost through Smile Train. Some of the stories I have heard are quite surprising. One newborn baby girl was found abandoned on a train. Luckily for her, she was found and adopted (收养) by a passenger.

人教版九年级英语阅读理解习题二(含答案)All living things need energy to live and grow. This energy comes first from the sun. Plants use water and sunlight to make their own food. Animals can not make their own food, and they eat plants. Other animals then eat the plant eaters.A food chain shows what eats what. It might show that zebras eat grass and then lions eat zebras.Lions also eat other animals. Zebras eat other kinds of plants. So it takes more than one food chain to show how lions and zebras get their energy.A food web shows how food chains work together. From it we can see how energy moves from plants to animals.Plants and animals that live in hot, dry deserts depend on water as well as food. Creosote bushes have small leaves that hold water. Their seeds provide food and water for kangaroo rats. Kangaroo rats don’t need to drink water. They get all the water they need from the plants they eat. Kangaroo rats keep cool by coming out only at night to look for food. Ringtail cats also come out only at night. Ringtail cats hunt and eat kangaroo rats. Coyotes eat both the kangaroo rats and the ringtail cats.Nothing is wasted in a food wed. Vultures eat dead animals. Vultures are scavengers. Scavengers do not hunt and kill other animals to get food. They eat animals that are already dead. When a ringtail cat or a coyote dies, it makes a meal for the vultures. Scavengers do an important job in keeping the environment clean.1. Where does the energy that living things need first come from?A. Animals.B. Plants.C. The sun.D. Plant eaters.2.
