武汉市中考英语 英语阅读理解专题练习(及答案)

一、英语阅读理解专项练习试卷

1．阅读理解

As a child, I was really afraid of the dark and of getting lost. These fears were very real and

caused me some uncomfortable moments.

Maybe it was the strange way things looked and sounded in my own room at night that scared

me so much. There was never complete darkness, but always a street light or car lights, which

made clothes on the back of a chair take on the shape of a wild animal. Out of the corner of my

eye, I saw the curtains（窗帘） seem to move when there was no wind. A very low sound in the

dark would seem a hundred times louder than in the day. My imagination（想象） would run

wild, and my heart would beat fast. I would lie very still so that the "enemy（敌人）" would not

discover me.

Another of my childhood fears was that I would get lost, especially on the way home from school.

Every morning I got on the school bus right near my home. That was no problem. After school,

though, when all the buses were lined up along the street, I was afraid that I would get on the

wrong one and be taken to some other strange places. On school or family trips to a park or a

museum, I wouldn't let the leaders out of my sight.

Perhaps one of the worst fears of all I had as a child was that of not being liked or accepted by

others. Being popular was so important to me then, and the fear of not being liked was a serious

one.

One of the processes（过程） of growing up is being able to realize and overcome our fears.

that of not being liked or accepted by others. 可知作者还害怕不被别人喜欢或者不被被人接受，故答案是C。

2．阅读理解

That year, I was a Junior 2 student. Falling off the stairs hurt me in the head. Almost everyone

thought I was dead. But they were wrong. However, it was difficult to get back to normal (正常的)

life. I had to leave school and learn everything, walking, talking, and yes, maths.

To help me with that task, Mrs. Pillar volunteered to come to the hospital and later to my

house once a week. We began with basic maths skills. As time passed by, I made progress.

I remembered very vividly how she came to my home on Sundays, sat with me at the kitchen

table, and threw different coins on the talbe. She asked me to show her 38 cents, 17 cents, 63

cents. It was challenging, but she also made it fun.

After a year and a half, I had progressed a lot, both in body and mind, to return to school.

Seven years later, I graduated from the University of Texas at the top of my class.

As year went by, I always kept in touch with Mrs. Pillar. Unluckily, one day my parents told me

that Mrs. Pillar had been in hospital because she suffered a stroke(中风).

Now it was my turn to help her. Mrs. Pillar lay in bed, unable to speak and know anybody

around. I pulled some coins out of my pocket, dropped them on her bed, and asked her to show

me 12 cents. The nurse thought that my action was very strange until one day Mrs. Pillar smiled happily as I began working with her—just as she had worked with my years before. She make
