初二英语阅读理解50篇1When you’re invited to have dinner in a foreigner’s home, please remember the following:At table, when the hostess （女主人）picks up her napkin（餐巾），you may pick up yours and put it on your legs.If a servant（佣人） passes food around, he will pass the dish to you at your left hand so that you can easily serve yourself with your right hand. Never serve yourself while the dish is on your right; it is then the turn of your neighbour on the right.Do not reach across the table or in front of someone to get something---that is not polite. Ask him or her to pass it to you.There are things in the middle of the table, such as bread, butter, and candies. You shouldn’t take any until the hostess tells the servant to pass them to you.Do not leave your seat without saying anything. If you need to leave the table to go to the washroom or do something else, you should say “Excuse me for a moment, please.”41. You should put your napkin on your legs before the hostess picks up hers.42. The dish is passed to you on either of your sides.43. If the food is far from you, you shouldn’t stand up to serve yourself.44. You may take any food at any time.45. When you have to leave your seat, you need to say “Excuse me for a moment, please.”2Dolphins are not fish. They are mammals（哺乳动物）. Theylive in groups and speak to each other in their own language. But they are quite different from almost all land animals. Their brain （大脑）is as big as men’s and t hey live a long life---- at least 20 or 30 years.Like some animals, dolphins use sounds to help them find their way around. They also use these sounds to talk to each other and to help them find food. They do not use their ears to receive sounds, but use the jaw--- the lower part of the mouth.It is strange that dolphins are friendly to men, and for thousands of years, there are many stories about dolphins and men. In the 19th century, in a dangerous part of the sea near New Zealand, there was a dolphin. The seamen liked him very much and gave him a very good name, Jack. From 1871 to 1903, Jack met every boat in the area and showed it the way. In 1903 a passenger on a boat with the name of The Penguin shot and hurt Jack. Luckily the dolphin didn’t die, and after a long time he was well again. He guided the ships through the area for nine more years, but he refused to help theboat The Penguin.Today, some people still kill dolphins, but many countries in the world now protect them. In these places, people are not allowed to kill them.46. The word jaw means _______ in Chinese.A. 下颚B. 嘴巴C. 嘴唇D. 鼻子47. How do dolphins find their way?A. They use their noses to smell the way.B. They use their ears to hear the sounds.C. They use their eyes to see the way.D. They use sounds to find the way.48. Who was Jack?A. The writer.B. A dolphin.C. A seaman.D. The passenger.49.

Suddenly one of her bags dropped from her arms. As she stopped to pick it up, she dropped other bags. He came t o help her. “Thank you, dear! You are a nice little boy!” she said kindly, smiling.A special feeling came to him. These were the first kind words he had ever heard. He watched her until she went far away, and then he whistled （吹口哨）to his dog and went directly to the river nearby.“Thank you, dear! You are a nice little boy!” he repeated （重复）the woman’s words. Then in a low voice he said to his dog, “You are a nice little dog!” Tige raised its ears as if it understood.“Uhum! Even a dog likes it!” he said, “Well, Tige, I won’t say unkind words to you any more.” Tige waved its tail happily.The boy thought and thought. Finally he looked at himself in the river. He saw nothing but a dirty boy. He washed his face carefully. Again he looked. He saw a clean nice boy. He was amazed. From then on, he had a new life.After telling this, the businessman stopped for a while, and then he said, “Ladies and gentlemen, this is the very place where that kind woman planted in me the first seed（种子） of kindness.

事实细节题设题手段单一，常常针对文章中某个容易误解的关键词句或概念，通过移花接木的手段组成是非辨别选择题，难度较小，属浅层理解题。

事实细节题题干常见的提问形式：1)是非判断类型Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage? Which of the following statementsis NOT true?2)特殊疑问词提问类型How many……?What/who/when/where/how/why……?3)排序题类型Which of the orders is correct according to the passage?4)例证题类型The author gives the example in……paragraph in order to ……事实细节题的解题方法：做这类题的一般方法是先要找出题干或是选项中的关键字，一般为数字、大写或人名地名，再通过scanning快速确定该细节在文中的出处(信息源)，仔细对照题干要求，排除或选择。

命题者在出这类题时惯用―偷梁换柱、张冠李戴‖的手法来迷惑考生，即对原句细微处做改动，截取原文词语或结构进行改造，因果倒置，把A的观点说成B的观点等。

所以正确理解题干和信息句的意义是关键。

细节事实题还要十分注意句子的非主干成分，如定语、状语、补语等，这些成分都是出题者常进行误导的落脚点。

是非判断一般都遵循对照选项进行―三对一错或三错一对‖的判断。

若该信息句是长句或难句，要学会找出其主干部分，分析句子结构，正确理解信息句的意义。

一定要注意的是，要所答是所问，不要受到惯势思维的影响，习惯性地去选择正确的细节事实，切记要弄清问题，不要所答非所问。

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 serv ing food to a middle-aged couple, the wife asked me how the food could be served so q uickly. I told her that I had made sure they got their food quickly because I always resp ect the elderly. As soon as I said that, her face showed great displeasure. My manager, w ho happened to hear what I said, took me aside and gave me a long lecture about how s ensitive(敏感) Americans are and how they dislike the description “old”. I then walked ba ck to the table and apologized to the wife. After the couple heard my reason, they unders tood that the problem was caused by cultural differences, so they laughed and were no lo nger 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 e xperience. Young people always respect older people because they know they can learn fr om their rich experience.However, in the United States, people think “growing old” is a problem since “old” s hows that a person is going to retire or that the body is not working well. Here many pe ople try to keep themselves away from growing old by doing exercises or jogging, and w omen put on makeup, hoping to look young. When I told the couple in the restaurant tha t I respect the elderly, they got angry because this caused them to feel they had failed to stay young. I had told them something th ey didn?t want to hear.After that, I changed the way I had been with older people. It is not that I don?t res pect them any more; I still respect them, but now I don?t show my feelings through word s.By Jack根据以上短⽂内容，然后从每题所给的四个选项中选择最佳选项。

2019届中考英语阅读理解50篇(绝对精品训练题，接近实战考题，值得下载练习)1When I was a kid in Minnesota, watermelon was expensive. One of my father’s friends, Bernie, was a rich businessman, who owned a large store in St. Paul.Every summer, when the first watermelons arrived, Bernie would call. Dad and I would go to Bernie’s place. We’d sit on the edge of the dock（码头）, feet dangling（摇晃）, and got ready for a big meal.Bernie would take his knife, cut our first watermelon, hand us both a big piece and sit down next to us. Then we’d bury our faces in watermelon, eating only the heart—the reddest, juiciest, firmest, sweetest, most seed-free part—and throw away the rest.Bernie was my father’s idea of a rich man. I always thought it was because he was such a successful businessman. Years later, I realized that it was not Bernie’s wealth itself but his way of dealing with it that my father liked. Bernie knew how to stop working, get together with friends and eat only the heart of the watermelon.What I learned from Bernie is that being rich is a state of mind. Some of us, no matter how much money we have, will never be free enough to eat only the heart of the watermelon. If you don’t take the time to dangle your feet over the dock and enjoy life’s small pleasure, your work is probably hurting your life.For many years, I forgot that lesson I’d learned as a kid on the loading dock. I was too busy making all the money I could.Well, I’ve relearned it. I hope I have time left to enjoy the success of others and to take pleasure in the day. That’s the heart of the watermelon. I have learned again to throw t he rest away.1. We learned from the second paragraph that the writer and his father were feeling ______.A. relaxedB. worriedC. hungryD. proud2. How did the writer and his father eat the watermelon?A. They ate it in a polite way.B. They only ate its best part.C. They ate every part of it.D. They shared only one piece.3. In the eyes of the writer’s father, Bernie ______.A. was just a rich businessmanB. worked hard all the timeC. lived a rich but healthy lifeD. knew how to make money4. The underlined part “the heart of the watermelon” in the last paragraph refers to ______.A. the best part of the watermelonB. the writer’s busy lifeC. the writer’s decision of making moneyD. the writer’s hope of enjoying life5. It can be learned from the passage that ______.A. one has to work hard to reach his goalB. a friend in need is a friend in deedC. watermelon is the healthiest fruitD. one should keep work-life balance答案：ABCDD2Paul and Jason were brothers who lived and worked on neighboring farms.For 35 years they farmed side by side, sharing machinery and goods as needed, without a single proble.

They fought hard to drive the enemy out of Scotland，but there were too many Romans. It looked as if the Romans would win.One night，the leader of Scots marched his soldiers to the top of a hill. “We will rest here tonight，my men,”he said. “Tomorrow we will fight one more battle. We must win or we will die.”They were all very tired，so they ate their supper quickly and fell asleep. There were four guards on duty，but they，too，were very tired，and one by one，also fell asleep.The Romans were not asleep. Quickly they gathered at the foot of the hill. Slowly they climbed up the hillside，taking care not to make a sound. Closer and closer they came to the sleeping Scots. They were almost at the top. A few minutes more，the war would be over. Suddenly，one of them put his foot on a thistle(蓟). He cried out and his sudden cry woke theScots. In a moment，they were on their feet and ready for battle. The fighting was hard but it did not last long. The Scots wiped out the Romans and saved their country.The thistle is not a beautiful plant. It has sharp needles all over it. Few people like it.

Mr White, an officer of forty, was strict with them and he hardly let them leave the camp.Once Mr White was ill in bed. He couldn’t work and a young officer, Mr Hunt began to train the new soldiers instead of him. He knew the young men well and let nine soldiers go to the nearest town to have a holiday. But night fell and none came back to the camp. He was worried about it and stood at the gate. It was five to twelve when Mr Hunt decided to go to the town and see what was happening to the young men. He started the car quickly and set off. At that moment the nine soldiers came back. It seemed they drank wine. Of course they found the officer was angry.“I’m sorry, sir,” said the first soldier. “I left the town on time. But something was wrong with my bus on my way here.I had to buy a horse and made it run fast. Bad luck!

There are only a few men in all of history, who have changed the lives of other men as much as the inventor of the first useful electric light. But Edison could never be pleased only because someone said he was a genius. “There is no such thing as genius,” Edison said. He thought what people called genius was mostly hard work.But Edison was a dreamer as well as a worker. From his earliest days as a child he wondered about the secrets of nature. He tried to understand them, and then he tried to learn what he could usefully do with them.Edison enjoyed thinking. He knew that most people would do almost anything instead of the difficult work of thinking, especially if they do not think very often. But he knew, too, that thinking could give men enjoyment and pleasure.Edison could not understand how anyone could not be interested in life. As he loved to think, he also loved to work. On the day he became 75 years old, someone asked him what idea he had about life. “Work,” he answered, “Discovering the secrets of nature and using them to make men happier.” He said he had enough inventions in his mind to give him another 100 years of work.1.According to Thomas Edison, what’s genius?A.Hard thinking.B.Hard work.eful dreams.eful inventions.2.After exploring the secrets of nature, Edison always tried to .A.write down what he had learntB.carry out a new experimentC.make them useful in lifeD.share them with others3.Edison could not understand .A.how anybody enjoyed lifeB.how anybody loved workingC.why anybody loved thinkingD.why anybody was tired of life4.The last sentence in the passage means that .A.Edison was born to be a great inventorB.Edison was able to live another 100 yearsC.Edison was ready to make his 100 th inventionD.life was too short for Edison to work for human beings答案：BCDD9I’ve loved my mother’s desk since I was just tall enough to see above the top of it as mother sat doing letters. 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.Years later, during her final illness, mother kept different things for my sister and brother. “But the desk,” she’d said again, “it’s for Elizabeth. ”I never saw her get angry, never saw her cry. I knew she loved me; she showed it in action. But as a young girl, I wanted heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter.They never happened. And a gulf opened between us. I was “too emotional(易动感情的)”. But she lived “on the surface(表面)”.As years passed I had my own family. I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family. I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any wayshe chose that she did forgive(原谅) me.I posted the letter and waited for her answer. None came.My hope turned to disappointment(失望), then little interest and, finally, peace— it seemed that nothing happened. I couldn’t be sure that the letter had even got to mother. I only knew that I had written it, and I could stop trying to make h er into someone she was not.Now the present of her desk told, as she’d never been able to, tha t she was pleased that writing was my chosen work. I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside —a photo of my father and a one-page letter, folded(折叠) and refolded many times.Give me an answer, my letter asks, in any way you choose.

1When you’re invited to have dinner in a foreigner’s home, please remember the following:At table, when the hostess （女主人）picks up her napkin（餐巾），you may pick up yours and put it on your legs.If a servant（佣人） passes food around, he will pass the dish to you at your left hand so that you can easily serve yourself with your right hand. Never serve yourself while the dish is on your right; it is then the turn of your neighbour on the right.Do not reach across the table or in front of someone to get something---that is not polite. Ask him or her to pass it to you.There are things in the middle of the table, such as bread, butter, and candies. You shouldn’t take any until the hostess tells the servant to pass them to you.Do not leave your seat without saying anything. If you need to leave the table to go to the washroom or do something else, you should say “Excuse me for a moment, please.”41. You should put your napkin on your legs before the hostess picks up hers.42. The dish is passed to you on either of your sides.43. If the food is far from you, you shouldn’t stand up to serve yourself.44. You may take any food at any time.45.

But they are quite different from almost all land animals. Their brain（大脑）is as big as men’s and they live a long life---- at least 20 or 30 years.Like some animals, dolphins use sounds to help them find their way around. They also use these sounds to talk to each other and to help them find food. They do not use their ears to receive sounds, but use the jaw--- the lower part of the mouth.It is strange that dolphins are friendly to men, and for thousands of years, there are many stories about dolphins and men. In the 19th century, in a dangerous part of the sea near New Zealand, there was a dolphin. The seamen liked him very much and gave him a very good name, Jack. From 1871 to 1903, Jack met every boat in the area and showed it the way. In 1903 a passenger on a boat with the name of The Penguin shot and hurt Jack. Luckily the dolphin didn’t die, and after a long time he was well again. He guided the ships through the area for nine more years, but he refused to help theboat The Penguin.Today, some people still kill dolphins, but many countries in the world now protect them. In these places, people are not allowed to kill them.46. The word jaw means _______ in Chinese.A. 下颚B. 嘴巴C. 嘴唇D. 鼻子47. How do dolphins find their way?A. They use their noses to smell the way.B.

People always laughed at him. No one showed kindness to him.His only friend was a dog named Tige. He gave his dog enough to eat and drink, but sometimes he was not polite to it.

Suddenly one of her bags dropped from her arms. As she stopped to pick it up, she dropped other bags. He came to help her. “Thank you, dear!

He watched her until she went far away, and then he whistled （吹口哨）to his dog and went directly to the river nearby.“Thank you, dear! You are a nice little boy!” he repeated（重复） the woman’s words. Then in a low voice he said to his dog, “You are a nice little dog!” Tige raised its ears as if it understood.“Uhum! Even a dog likes it!” he said, “Well, Tige, I won’t say unkind words to you any more.” Tige waved its tail happily.The boy thought and thought. Finally he looked at himself in the river. He saw nothing but a dirty boy. He washed his face carefully. Again he looked. He saw a clean nice boy. He was amazed. From then on, he had a new life.After telling this, the businessman stopped for a while, and then he said, “Ladies and gentlemen, this is the very place where that kind woman planted in me the first seed（种子） of kindness.

初中英语阅读理解实战50篇（精品）初中英语阅读理解实战练习(名师详细剖析解题技巧+实战训练，建议下载保存)(绝对精品⽂档，价值很⾼，值得下载打印)1. 单词障碍型单词障碍型是⼤多数同学基本上都会出现的问题，由于词汇量不够，导致⼀个句⼦中过半单词都不认识，如何能够读懂句⼦？同时，除去⼀些难词咱们可能不认识之外，还有可能存在这样⼀种情况，即⼀词多义不清楚。

⽐如，咱们来看⼀句话：Can you can a can like a caner can can a can?这句话冷眼⼀看，so easy啊！不就是can么？但是如果叫你来翻译⼀下，你看⼀看能不能翻译出来呢？是不是在皱着眉头呢？同学们，这就是⼀词多义最常见的体现，can这个单词，除了我们熟悉的作为情态动词表⽰“能，可能”之外，还有很多种意思。

我们在这⾥积累⼀下：can可以作为名词，表⽰“易拉罐，罐，听”的意思；can可以作为动词，同学们知道“名词活⽤为动词”这样的⽤法，因此我们可以轻松推断，can动词表⽰“装罐”的意思；那么caner你是不是猜出来什么意思了呢？-er表⽰“……的⼈”，即“装罐⼯⼈”之意。

现在单词问题解决了，我们来看⼀看这句话怎么理解呢？“你能像⼀个装罐⼯⼈⼀样装⼀个易拉罐吗？”你翻译对了没？单词积累，尤其对于⼀词多义的单词⼀定要重点记忆。

每天⾝边带⼀个⼩本⼦，积累下你不会的单词，坚持下来，就会成就你⾃⼰的词汇城堡。

2. 语法障碍型在长难句解读的过程中，你也会遇到这样⼀种情况：⼀句话所有的单词我都认识，但就是翻译不出来到底是啥意思。

这样的现象出现的原因是语法障碍。

语法不是语⾔学习的全部，但却是语⾔学习的⼯具。

单词全会，句⼦仍然不会，原因就是句中包含了复杂的语法结构，⽐如说三⼤从句“宾语从句”“定语从句”“状语从句”会贯穿在长难句中，⽆法分清什么句⼦类型，便不知道冒出来的⼀句⼀句话都是⼲什么的，那么理解这句话就会出现困难，因此，语法⼀定要学好，尤其是三⼤从句，是我们做阅读完形理解⽂章的重要⼯具。

1When you’re invited to have dinner in a foreigner’s home, please remember the following:At table, when the hostess （女主人）picks up her napkin（餐巾），you may pick up yours and put it on your legs.If a servant（佣人） passes food around, he will pass the dish to you at your left hand so that you can easily serve yourself with your right hand. Never serve yourself while the dish is on your right; it is then the turn of your neighbour on the right.Do not reach across the table or in front of someone to get something---that is not polite. Ask him or her to pass it to you.There are things in the middle of the table, such as bread, butter, and candies. You shouldn’t take any until the hostess tells the servant to pass them to you.Do not leave your seat without saying anything. If you need to leave the table to go to the washroom or do something else, you should say “Excuse me for a moment, please.”41. You should put your napkin on your legs before the hostess picksup hers.42. The dish is passed to you on either of your sides.43. If the food is far from you, you shouldn’t stand up to serve yourself.44. You may take any food at any time.45.

But they are quite different from almost all land animals. Their brain（大脑）is as big as men’s and they live a long life---- at least 20 or 30 years.Like some animals, dolphins use sounds to help them find their way around. They also use these sounds to talk to each other and to help them find food. They do not use their ears to receive sounds, but use the jaw--- the lower part of the mouth.It is strange that dolphins are friendly to men, and for thousands of years, there are many stories about dolphins and men. In the 19th century, in a dangerous part of the sea near New Zealand, there was a dolphin. The seamen liked him very much and gave him a very good name, Jack. From 1871 to 1903, Jack met every boat in the area and showed it the way. In 1903 a passenger on a boat with the name of The Penguin shot and hurt Jack. Luckily the dolphin didn’t die, and after a long time he was well again. He guided the ships through the area for nine more years, but he refused to help the boat The Penguin.Today, some people still kill dolphins, but many countries in the world now protect them. In these places, people are not allowed to kill them.46. The word jaw means _______ in Chinese.A. 下颚B. 嘴巴C. 嘴唇D. 鼻子47. How do dolphins find their way?A. They use their noses to smell the way.B. They use their ears to hear the sounds.C. They use their eyes to see the way.D. They use sounds to find the way.48. Who was Jack?A. The writer.B. A dolphin.C. A seaman.D. The passenger.49.

Dolphins don’t live in groups.C. Dolphins are kind and friendly to people.D. Dolphins can live a long life.3Jim, a successful businessman, told the experience of his childhood.When he was 12, his parents died. He was alone and didn’t get on well with others. People always laughed at him. No one showed kindness to him.His only friend was a dog named Tige. He gave his dog enough to eat and drink, but sometimes he was not polite to it. He didn’t know that an unkind work sometimes could cut one’s heart like a knife.One day as he walked down the street, a young lady was walking in front of him. Suddenly one of her bags dropped from her arms. As she stopped to pick it up, she dropped other bags. He came to help her. “Thank you, dear! You are a nice little boy!” she said kindly, smiling.A special feeling came to him. These were the first kind words he had ever heard. He watched her until she went far away, and then he whistled （吹口哨）to his dog and went directly to the river nearby.“Thank you, dear! You are a nice little boy!” he repeated（重复）the woman’s words. Then in a low voice he said to his dog, “You are a nice little dog!” Tige raised its ears as if it understood.“Uhum! Even a dog likes it!” he said, “Well, Tige, I won’t say unkind words to you any more.” Tige waved its tail happily.The boy thought and thought. Finally he looked at himself in the river. He saw nothing but a dirty boy. He washed his face carefully. Again he looked. He saw a clean nice boy. He was amazed. From then on, he had a new life.After telling this, the businessman stopped for a while, and then he said, “Ladies and gentlemen, this is the very place where that kind woman planted in me the first seed（种子） of kindness.

初中英语阅读理解实战练习(名师详细剖析解题技巧+实战训练，建议下载保存)(绝对精品文档，价值很高，值得下载打印)1. 单词障碍型单词障碍型是大多数同学基本上都会出现的问题，由于词汇量不够，导致一个句子中过半单词都不认识，如何能够读懂句子？同时，除去一些难词咱们可能不认识之外，还有可能存在这样一种情况，即一词多义不清楚。

比如，咱们来看一句话：Can you can a can like a caner can can a can?这句话冷眼一看，so easy啊！不就是can么？但是如果叫你来翻译一下，你看一看能不能翻译出来呢？是不是在皱着眉头呢？同学们，这就是一词多义最常见的体现，can这个单词，除了我们熟悉的作为情态动词表示“能，可能”之外，还有很多种意思。

我们在这里积累一下：can可以作为名词，表示“易拉罐，罐，听”的意思；can可以作为动词，同学们知道“名词活用为动词”这样的用法，因此我们可以轻松推断，can动词表示“装罐”的意思；那么caner你是不是猜出来什么意思了呢？-er表示“……的人”，即“装罐工人”之意。

现在单词问题解决了，我们来看一看这句话怎么理解呢？“你能像一个装罐工人一样装一个易拉罐吗？”你翻译对了没？单词积累，尤其对于一词多义的单词一定要重点记忆。

每天身边带一个小本子，积累下你不会的单词，坚持下来，就会成就你自己的词汇城堡。

2. 语法障碍型在长难句解读的过程中，你也会遇到这样一种情况：一句话所有的单词我都认识，但就是翻译不出来到底是啥意思。

这样的现象出现的原因是语法障碍。

语法不是语言学习的全部，但却是语言学习的工具。

单词全会，句子仍然不会，原因就是句中包含了复杂的语法结构，比如说三大从句“宾语从句”“定语从句”“状语从句”会贯穿在长难句中，无法分清什么句子类型，便不知道冒出来的一句一句话都是干什么的，那么理解这句话就会出现困难，因此，语法一定要学好，尤其是三大从句，是我们做阅读完形理解文章的重要工具。

比如，在这里我们一起来看一个句子：I find my thoughts on how much you have done for me，but I have never stopped and said toyou how much I feel the need to thank you.我相信大多数同学对于这句话中的单词都没有问题，随便就揪出一个一定知道什么意思，然而在经过加工进入不同从句中时，顿时脑子就蒙了。

那么我们应该如何解决这样的问题呢？让我们一步一步走。

拿到一个长难句，看到复杂的句子结构，我们要：找连词，分句子，宾从顺着翻，定从找先行，状从最后看。

我们一起来分析这句话：but告诉我们，前后两句话是并列句，因此我们分开两句话来看。

but前半句中，how much you have done for me是在介词on后的，我们都知道介词后面的句子是宾语从句，知道这点就好办了，直接按顺序翻译，因此前半句我们翻译为：我发现我的一直在想的是你为我做了多少事情；but后半句中你又会发现这句话里还有个and，仍然找连词，分句子，and前是一个简单句直接翻译即可，and后面包含一个什么从句呢？how much I feel the我有多需要去感谢你”是不是作为said的内容？那么我们可以断定这句话是need to thank you.“宾语从句，因此顺翻but后半句：但是我从来都没有停下来去告诉你我有多么的感谢你。

是不是很简单呢？3. 英语语言习惯不熟悉型任何一门语言代表的其实都是一种文化，因为文化的不同，我们很多语言习惯也是不同的。

比如what’s going on there?很多孩子第一次见到这种句子不知道是什么意思，go on是继续的意思？这继续什么了？你会发现无论怎么解释都是不通的，为什么呢？这就是我们所说的习惯用法。

What is going on表达的就是“发生了什么事情”这样的意思，很简单，但如果你不知道，一定会被难住。

为了培语言习惯，我建议大家平时有时间多看一些美剧，欧美电影，跟重要的，保证每周至少翻译一篇文章，在翻译的过程中会强化词汇在语境中的意义，锻炼句子结构分析，更能够让大家习惯英文表达，使得今后在阅读过程中速度提升的同时，更能精准的理解意思。

4. 长难句分析方法对句子的理解一般包含两个层次，第一个层次是对句子本身含义的理解，这需要读者对句子的结构以及高考命题人组织长难句的方法有基本的把握和正确的认识；第二个层次是对句子弦外之音的感悟，理解句子对下文内容和文章结构的指示作用。

这两个层次可以通过语法分析和语义提取得以实现。

长难句的语法分析分析长难句的核心思想就是“提取主干”。

再复杂的句子也是由一个个部分组成的，其中重要的是句子的主干，一般包括主语、谓语和宾语，因为它们是文章在传递信息时的主要载体，而其它成分，不论有多长多复杂，都不过是起辅助作用的成分罢了。

语法分析可以按照下列步骤来操作：1、首先把长难句分解成若干个简单句。

2、找出连词和关键词，确定句与句之间的关系，分清主句和从句。

3、分析主句与从句的成分，识别谓语动词，判断谓语动词的时态语态和语气，接着看该句是否有倒装、省略、插入成分、独立成分、同位成分等。

4、分析主句与从句、从句与从句之间的关系。

同时，考虑上下文、文化背景，从总体上把握句子的字面含义以及字里行间的深层意思。

长难句的语义提取一般来说，除了语言学家，人们对自己母语的语法知识可以说是知之甚少。

然而当我们阅读本族语的时候，也能够很轻易的看懂一些从语法角度来说很复杂的句子，这显然不是语法分析的结果。

这是因为人们对自己的母语有着丰富的语言经验，接触过不计其数的语言材料，对其中信息的提取已经习惯成自然。

同理，我们也可以通过丰富自己的英语语言经验来提高自己阅读英语长难句的能力。

有意识地、有针对性地进行长难句训练，反复进行忽略语法的快速浏览，就能够达到在阅读时对原句各成分自动拆分组合，把零碎的信息点拼成有机的信息流的水平。

实战训练方法1)从真题中选取有代表性的长难句，每篇文章找出2—3个。

2)将这些长难句收集到一起，打印或者抄下下来。

3)反复阅读，最好能够达到熟能成诵的境界，注意在此过程中不进行任何语法分析。

在头脑中把英语句子中各成分拆分，然后把这些概念组合成可以理解的汉语句子就可以了。

4)将真题中的长难句都如此练习一番，长难句就基本攻破了，之后，我们将会进入到一个阅读的新境界！2019届中考英语阅读理解50篇(绝对精品训练题，接近实战考题，值得下载练习)1When I was a kid in Minnesota, watermelon was expensive.

There are only a few men in all of history,who have changed the lives of other men as much as the inventor of the first useful electric light.
