No. 1 中考英语阅读理解·“老”字趣谈每个国家都有各自的文化习惯;而这种文化上的差异往往会引起一定的误会;不过只要熟悉对方的风俗习惯做到入乡随俗;一切就OK啦When my family moved to America in 2010 from a small village in Guangdong; China; we brought not only our luggage; but also our village rules; customs and culture. One of the rules is that young people should always respect尊敬elders. Unluckily; this rule led to my very first embarrassment in the United States.I had a part-time job as a waiter in a Chinese restaurant. One time; when I was serving food to a middle-aged couple; the wife asked me how the food could be served so quickly. I told her that I had made sure they got their food quickly because I always respect the elderly. As soon as I said that; her face showed great displeasure. My manager; who happened to hear what I said; took me aside and gave me a long lecture about how sensitive敏感Americans are and how they dislike the description “old”. I then walked back to the table and apologized to the wife. After the couple heard my reason; they understood that the problem was caused by cultural differences; so they laughed and were no longer angry.In my village in China; people are proud of being old. Not so many people live to be seventy or eighty; and people who reach such an age have the most knowledge and experience. Young people always respect older people because they know they can learn from their rich experience. However; in the United States; people think “growing old” is a problem since “old” shows that a person is going to retire or that the body is not working well. Here many people try to keep themselves away from growing old by doing exercises or jogging; and women put on makeup; hoping to look young. When I told the couple in the restaurant that I respect the elderly; they got angry because this caused them to feel they had failed to stay young. I had told them something they didn’t want to hear.After that; I changed the way I had been with older people. It is not that I don’t respect them any more; I still respect them; but now I don’t show my feelings through words.By Jack1.

Standing by her chair; looking at the ink bottle; pens; and white paper;I decided that the act of writing must be the more wonderful thing in the world.

中考英语阅读理解训练及答案AWe’ve talked about snails (蜗牛) and their slow move. But much of the time snails don’t move at all. They are in their shells (壳) —sleeping.Hot sun will dry out a snail’s body. So at the least sign of hot sun, a snail draws its body into his shell. A snail will die in a heavy rain. So when it rains, a snail does the same thing, too. A snail can sleep for as long as it needs to. It spends all the winter months in its shell, asleep.In the spring the snail wakes up. Its body, about three inches long, comes out from the shell. When hungry, the snail looks for food. Its eyes, at the end of the top feelers (触角), are very weak. But its sense (感觉) of smell is very strong. It helps the snail to find food and the new greens.A snail’s mouth is no bigger than the point of a pin (大头针). Yet it has 256,000 teeth! The teeth are very small, and you can’t see them. If you put a snail in a hard paper box, it will eat its way out! And if a snail wears out its teeth, it will grow new ones.1.

If you don’t, you may get lost. If you really get lost, thisis what you should do. Sit down and stay where you are. Don’t try to find your friends—let them find you by staying in one place.There is another way to help your friends or other nearby people to find you. Give them a signal (信号) by shouting or whistling (吹口哨) three times. Any signal given three times is a call for help.Keep up shouting or whistling always three times together. When people hear you, they will know that you are not just making noise for fun. They will let you know that they have heard your signal. They give you two shouts, two whistles, or two gun-shots (枪声). When someone gives you a signal, it is an answer to a call for help.If you don’t think that you will get help before night comes, try to make a little house---cover up to the holes with branches (树枝) with lots of leaves. Make yourself a soft bed with leaves and grass.What should you do if you get hungry or need drinking water? You would have to leave your little house to look for a river. Don’t just walk away. Pick off small branches and drop them as you walk so that you can find your way back. The most important thing to do when you are lost is—stay in one place.6.
