In their eagerness (渴望) to make money form trees, some people have cut trees down in large numbers, only to find that without them they have lost the best friends they had. And besides (此外), they are usually too careless to plant and look after new trees, so the forests slowly disappear.This doesn’t only mean that men will have fewer trees. The results are even more serious: where there are trees, their roots (根) break up soil—allowing the rain to sink in and also bind (固定) the soil, thus (因而) preventing it from being washed away easily, but where there are no trees, the rain falls and carrying away the rich top—soil. When all the top—soil is gone, nothing remains (剩下) but worthless desert.1.

2019年中考英语阅读理解编习题(二)附答案【能力选练】 A(2019中考选练)If you want to become a fluent(流利的)English speaker you should take some advice: There are four skills in learning English. They are reading, listening, speaking, and writing. The most important thing you must remember is that if you want to improve your speaking and writing skills you should first master the skills of reading and listening.Read as much as you can. But your reading must be active. It means that you must think about the meaning of the sentence, the meanings of the unfamiliar words, etc. There is no need for you to pay much attention to grammars or try to understand all the unfamiliar words you come across, but the fact that you see them for the first time and recognize them whenever you see them, for example in other passages or books, is enough. It would be better to prepare yourself a notebook so you can write down the important words or sentences in it_As for listening, there are two choices: besides reading, you can listen every day for about 30 minutes. You can only pay attention to your reading and become skillful at your reading, then you can catch up on your listening. Since you have lots of inputs in your mind, you can easily guess what the speaker is going to say. This never means that you should not practice listening.For listening you can listen to cartoons or some movies that are specially made for children. Their languages are easy. Or if you are good at listening you can listen to VOA or BBC programs every day. Again the thing to remember is being active in listening and preferably taking some notes.If you follow these pieces of advice, your speaking and writing will improve automatically, and you can be sure that with a little effort they will become perfect.1. According to the author, which should you improve first among the four skills?A. Reading and writing.B. Reading and listening.C. Writing andspeaking. D. Speaking and listening.2. The underlined phrase "come across" in Paragraph 2 can probably be replaced by "_______".A. meet byaccident B. discoverC. find on purposeD. look for3. The author seems to agree with the view that_______.A. everyone should listen to VOA or BBC programs every dayB. you needn't practice listening if you keep on reading every dayC. being good at reading is helpful in improving your listeningD. you should take notes of whatever you are hearing4. The passage is mainly about how to_______.A. choose suitable listening materialsB. deal with new words in readingC. read as many English books as possibleD. become fluent in speaking and writing English参考答案BACD【能力选练】 B中考英语阅读理解****浪费可耻Waste can be seen everywhere in the school. Some students ask for more food than they can eat and others often forget to turn off the lights when they leave the classroom. They say they can afford these things. But I don’t agree with them.Waste can bring a lot of problems. Although China is rich in some resources(资源), we are short of(缺乏) others, for example, fresh water(淡水). It is reported that we will have no coal(煤) or oil to use in 100 years. So if we go on wasting our resources,what can we use in the future and where can we move? Think about it. I think we should say no to the students who waste things every day. Everybody should stop wasting as soon as possible.In our everyday life, we can do many things to prevent waste from happening, for example, turn off the water taps(水龙头) when we finish washing, turn off the lights when we leave the classroom, try not to order more food than we need, and so on. Little by little, everything will be changed. Waste can be stopped one day, if we do our best.◆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。

Teenagers need nine to ten hours. And pre-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 sodifferent.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.I t’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 int erests.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.s uggests 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A 1-3 DACB [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。

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年中考英语:阅读理解优编题(七)及答案【实战训练】A(2019中考科普环保类选练)Being able to multitask—doing several things at the same time—is considered (考虑,认为) a welcome skill by most people. But if we consider the situation of the young people aged from eight to eighteen, we should think again.What we often see nowadays is that young people juggle a larger number of electronic devices (电子产品) as they study. While working, they also surf on the Internet, send out emails, answer the telephone and listen to music on their iPods. In a sense, they are spending a large amount of time in fruitless efforts (努力) as they multitask.Multitasking is even changing the relationship between family members. As young people give so much attention to their own worlds, they seem to have no time to spend with the other people around them. They can no longer greet family members when they enter the house, nor can they eat at the family table.Multitasking also has an effect (影响) on young people’s performance at university and in the workplace. When asked about their opinions of the effects of modern gadgets (器具) on their performance of tasks, many young people gave a positive (肯定的) response (回应). However, the response from the worlds of education and business was not quite as positive. Educators feel that multitasking by children has a serious effect on later development of study skills. They believe that many college students now need help to improve their study skills. Similarly, employers (雇主) feel that young people entering the job market need to be taught all over again, as modern gadgets have made it unnecessary (没必要) for them to learn special skills to do their work.1. What does the underlined word “juggle” most probably mean?A. Want to buy.B. Use at the same time.C. Take the place of.D. Search information from.2. In Paragraph 3, the author points out that__________.A. family members do not greet each otherB. family members do not eat at the family tableC. young people get on well with their familiesD. young people hardly communicate with their family members3. What’s the main idea of the last paragraph?A. Young people must learn skills for future jobs.B. Young people benefit (获益) a lot from modern gadgets.C. Multitasking is an important skill to young people.D. Multitasking influences young people’s development seriously.4. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Young people think multitasking is good for their study and work.B. Employers consider it unnecessary for young people to be taught all over again.C. Educators feel that young people don’t need to improve their study skills.D. People from the world of education believe multitasking has a good effect on children’s later study skills.5. The author develops (阐述) the passage mainly by__________.A. providing special examplesB. following the natural time orderC. giving out a cause and analyzing (分析) its effectsD. comparing opinions from different worlds参考答案BDDAC【实战训练】B中考英语阅读理解****顾此失彼许多年前,农民为保护他们的鸡而猎杀了很多老鹰。
2019中考英语阅读理解优练(二)Passage A(2019中考选练)Disasters happen all the time somewhere in the world. Are you ready if one hits your neighborhood next week? Find out what you need to do now before it is too late. Let’s take an earthquake for example.During an earthquake, get under a strong object like the kitchen table. Don’t leave the building during the shaking, or you might be hurt by falling objects from the outside of the building.When you are in bed during the night and an earthquake happens,simply roll off the bed. There will be a safe void around the bed.If you are watching TV and you cannot easily run away by getting out through the door or window, then lie down and curl up(蜷伏) next to a sofa, or a large chair.Never go to the stairs. The stairs are likely part of the building to be broken. Even if the stairs are not destroyed by the earthquake,they may fall down later when people run down.Try to get into an open area away from trees,buildings,walls,advertisement boards and power lines if you are outdoors.If you are driving when an earthquake suddenly happens,just stay in your car until the shaking ends. However, if the footbridge falls and breaks your car,get out of it and sit or lie next to it. All the broken cars have voids 3 feet high next to it.1. What should you do if you are in a building when an earthquake happens?A. Rush out quicklyB. Sit in the kitchenC. Stay below strong objectsD. Go down the stairs2.

By the middle 1950s, he had become one of the best-loved and most successful children's book writers in the world. His books are very popular with young readers. They enjoy the invented words and the pictures of unusual funny animals and plants.In 1954, life magazine published(刊登) a report about school children who could not read. The report said many children's books were not interesting. Doctor Seuss strongly hoped to help children and decided to write books that were interesting and easy to read. He used words with the same ending sound, like fish and wish. He did not receive training in art. Yet, he drew the pictures for most of his books.In 1957, Dr. Seuss wrote The Cat in the Hat. He used less than 230 words to write the book and even a six-year-old should be able to read it. It was a fun story and easy to read. Children loved it. Their parents loved it, too. Today it is still one of the stories they like best. The success of The Cat in the Hat made him want to write more books for children. In 1960, he wrote a book using less than fifty words. The book is called Green Eggs and Ham.In 1984, Doctor Seuss won a Pulitzer Prize (普利策奖). He was honored for the education and enjoyment his books provided American children and their parents. He died at the age of 87, but his influence remains. Millions of his books have been sold worldwide. People say his books helped change the way American children learned to read. Yet, his books are loved by people of all ages. Doctor Seuss once said, "I do not write for children. I write for people.( )11. Doctor Seuss learned from the magazine that _______.A. some school children could not readB. many children's books were interestingC. children wanted to learn to readD. a writer for children was wanted ( )12. People like his books because the books ______.A. are cheap and easy to getB. were written in different languagesC. are easy and interesting to readD. were written with invented words ( )13. He wrote the book The Cat in the Hat at the age of _____.A. 50B. 53C. 56D. 87( )14. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Doctor Seuss wrote Green Eggs and Ham with over 230 words.B. Doctor Seuss wrote books only for children in the United States.C. The Cat in the Hat was written only for six-year-old children.D. His books provided education and enjoyment for Americans.( )15. From the text we know that Doctor Seuss __________.A. won a Pulitzer Prize soon after his deathB. sold millions of his books himself worldwideC. changed American children's way of readingD. wrote the largest number of books in the world阅读理解11—15 ACBDCPassage D飓风Anyone who has experienced a cyclone(飓风) will tell you how scary it can be. High winds and lots of rain can destroy a city in less than an hour. A big cyclone, named cyclone Debbie, hit Australia's east coast at the end of March.The wind was as fast as 236 km/h and destroyed houses, trees, cars and boats. Sea levels rose and flooded coastal towns. While rivers also flooded. Many cities near rivers went underwater.Hundreds of thousands of people had to leave their homes and farms, at least 8 people died, reported Courier Mail. The cyclone lasted for about 3 days. But the flooding was still happening 2 weeks later. Some cities never recover from a cyclone, while it takes years to rebuild.A tropical cyclone begins when a group of thunderstorms meet over warm, tropical waters. Lots of air and water is sucked into clouds from the ocean. Because the earth is rotating, the clouds start to spiral(螺旋式上升). That is why tropical cyclone has curved(使成弧形) shape when you see it on a map. For this reason, tropical cyclone can not form near Equator(赤道) because earth's rotation is not strong enough there. When the wind speed increases to 120 km/h, it changes from a tropical cyclone to a hurricane, typhoon or cyclone.So what is the difference between a cyclone, a hurricane, a typhoon?The answer is actually quite simple.All three are the same. We just use different names for these storms in different places. In the Atlantic and Northeast Pacific Ocean around the US, the term hurricane is used. The same type of storm in the North Pacific Ocean near China is called typhoon. Cyclones occur in the South Pacific and Indian Ocean near Australia.1. When the wind speed increases to ________, it changes from a tropical cyclone toa hurricane.A. 2 km/mB. 3 km/mC. 4 km/sD. 5 km/s2. The underlined word “recover” in Paragraph 3 probably means “________” in Chinese.A. 恢复B. 康复C. 痊愈D. 建造3. Australian hurricanes caused ________.A. many people lost their homeB. trees, cars and boats were destroyedC. sea levels roseD. including A,B and C4. Which of the following is TRUE?A. When the wind speed increases to 125 km/h, it changes from a tropical cyclone to a hurricane.B. A group of thunderstorms meet over cold, tropical waters.C. The earth can rotate.D. Tropical cyclones can be seen near Equator.5. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. A terrible hurricane—Debbie.B. The earth's rotation.C. The formation of cyclone.D. A terrible hurricane and how a hurricane forms. 【主旨大意】本文是一篇说明文。
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. The celebration is mainly in the schools and colleges with students giving greeting cards, flowers, books and other things of appreciation to their teachers.India (September 5)In India, Teachers’Day is better known as “Shikshak Divas”and is celebrated on September 5 every year. It is celebrated in almost every school in India, with teachers and students going to school as usual but the usual activities and classes are replaced(代替)by activities of celebration, thanks and remembrance. Even many former(以前的)students show respect to the former teachers by visiting them and handing a rose.Vietnam (November 20)Teachers’Day is celebrated in Vietnam on November 20 and is betterknown as “Vietnamese Educators’Day”. It was first celebrated in 1958. Today, the holiday provides an opportunity for students to show respect to their teachers. Senior students usually visit their teachers to offer flowers and small gifts. Former students also show respect to their former teachers on this day.5.Which is NOT true about Teachers’Day in Malaysia?A.The celebrations are always held on May 16 every year.B.It is celebrated earlier than May 16 if it comes on weekends.C.It is mainly celebrated in the schools and colleges.D.The students give greeting cards, flowers and books to their teachers.6.When do people celebrate Teachers’Day in India?A.On May 16.B.On September 5.C.On September 10.D.On November 20.7.The passage mainly tells us .A.the different customs to give gifts in different countriesB.what the students give to their teachers on ChristmasDayC.the different ways to celebrate Teachers’Day in different countriesD.how the students appreciate their teachers in different countriesCJohn and Nancy were so excited, because their parents promised them a trip to Disneyland if they did well in school, so the kids were studying hard for their finals. They didn’t know that their father had purchased the plane tickets and booked the hotel already.After weeks of preparing for their tests, John and Nancy passed their tests. 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. John and Nancy loved all the fun rides in the park and had lunch with Mickey. The family had lots of fun visiting Animal Kingdom, Epcot, and Universal Studios throughout the week they spent in Orlando.The kids thought that was the best week because their parents made their dream of taking a trip to Disneyland come true.8.The underlined word “purchased”means .A.boughtB.soldC.looked forD.given up9.The third paragraph mainly tells us .A.what they saw on the planeB.what they did on the planeC.how to deal with an earache on the planeD.how to sleep well on the plane10.Why did John get up so early and wake others up the next morning?A.Because he couldn’t wait to go to Disneyland.B.Because the service in the hotel was bad.C.Because he wanted to take a shower earlier than others.D.Because he was hungry and wanted to get something to eat.11.Which of the following is NOT true about Disneyland according to the passage?A.It’s John and Nancy’s dream to take a trip to Disneyland.B.John and Nancy liked the fun rides in Disneyland.C.John and Nancy had lunch with Mickey.D.When the plane landed, they went to Disneyland at once.DMom and Dad are two of the most important people in your life. 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中考英语阅读理解(编二)含答案【实战训练】 A(2019中考日常生活类训练)Dear Sunday Globe,I am writing to tell you about your article Smartphones Make Life Easier in last Sunday’s newspaper. You did an excellent job explaining the good points of smartphones, but you didn’t talk about their bad points at all. So, I hope you’ll let me give your readers some advice on smartphone etiquette (礼仪). The first point I’d like to address is loudness. When you talk on your smartphone in public, please don’t shout. In fact, the microphones in smartphones are very sensitive (灵敏的). So, you can be heard even if you speak quietly.Another point is about personal space. I don’t think it is polite to make calls in small spaces full of people. This makes others uncomfortable and forces them to listen to your personal business. What’s worse, it stops many face-to-face conversations from ever beginning.Lastly, doing two things at the same time is dangerous. For example, making calls while driving is a bad habit. Pay attention to the road! Similarly, when staying with your friends, turn off your smartphone and enjoy their company.Yours truly,Amber Jala1. Amber Jala wrote the letter to ________ .A. find a goodjobB. provide adviceC. make her lifeeasierD. buy a smartphone2. What does the underlined word “address” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. 致函 B. 称呼 C. 陈述 D. 选址3. According to Paragraph 3, what makes people around you uncomfortable?A. Discussingface-to-face.B. Speaking quietly on your phone.C. Minding your ownbusiness. D. Calling in small spaces full of people.4. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. It is dangerous to drive on the road.B. It is easy to start a company with others.C. It is bad to turn off our phones while driving.D. It is important to use our smartphones properly.参考答案1B 2C 3D 4D【实战训练】 B2016中考英语阅读理解分类练习:记叙文Would you like to visit Britain one day? Our country would like to welcomeyou! Overseas travel can be expensive. But there are ways of visiting Britain cheaply. We hope that we can give you some good ideas.When to come? If you can avoid (避免) the busy months—July and August ,your visit may be cheaper. There will be smaller numbers of visitors. British weather is pleasant from April to the end of September. Of course, you can visit it in winter, but it is often dark by 4 p. m. Many places, such as large houses and castles (城堡), are closed early in winter. However, if you are interested in museums, art galleries or theatres, winter may be a good time to visit.Be prepared.

Something that looks cool may not be good for your health.There are plenty of "energy drinks" on the market. Most of them have beautiful colors and cool names. The lists on them tell you they are helpful to your health. Sounds great!But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks have lots of caffeine (咖啡因) in them. These drinks are especially aimed at young people, students, busy people and sports players. Makers sometimes say their drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awake. But be careful not to drink too much.Caffeine makes your heart beat fast. Because of this, the International Olympic Committee has limited( 限制) its use. Caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as strong as that in a cup of coffee or tea. Possible health dangers have something to do with energy drinks. Just one box of energy drink can make you nervous, have difficulty sleeping and can even cause heart problems.

Many British students also worked there. Their job was washing the dishes. It was an easy job, but the boss said, “You must wash every dish seven times.” At first, Alan was careful. The boss was happy with him. After one month, he found that the boss didn't check very often. He thought there was no difference between five times and seven times. So he just washed five times. He worked very fast. The boss was even happier. One day, a British student asked him why he could wash so fast. Alan told him the secret. The British student was surprised but didn't say anything. A few days later he told the boss about it. The boss fired(解雇) Alan.Alan went to other restaurants, but all of them said, “Go away! You are not honest.

2019年中考英语:阅读理解优编题(二)及答案【实战训练】 A(2019中考保健与健康类选练)Spending two or three hours playing outdoors each day can reduce the chance of becoming short-sighted, a research shows. It challenges the belief(信念) that short-sightedness is caused by computer use, watching TV or reading in weak light.The Australian government researchers believe that the sunlight is good for people’s eyes. They compared the vision(视力) and habits of 100 seven-year-old children in Singapore and Australia. In all, 30% of the Singaporean children were short-sighted—this rate(比率) was ten times higher than Australian children.Both groups spend a similar amount(数量) of time reading, watching television and playing computer games. However the Singaporean children spent an average (平均) of only half an hour a day outdoors—90 minutes less than the Australian children.Professor Ian Morgan, from the Australian Research Council’s vision Centre, said, “Humans are naturally long-sighted, but when people begin to go to school and spend little or no time outdoors, the number of short-sighted people gets larger. We’re also seeing more and more short-sighted children in cities all around the world and the main reason may be that city children spend less time outdoors.Daylight can be hundreds of times brighter than indoor light. But why does playing outside prevent us from becoming short-sighted? Scientists believe that natural light has a special chemical(化学物质) which stops the eyeball from growing out of shape and prevents people from becoming short-sighted.So be outdoors. It doesn’t matter if that time is spent having a picnic or having sports.1. How much time did the Australian children spend outdoors on averageaccording to the research?A. 30 minutes.B. 60 minutes.C. 90 minutes.D. 120 minutes.2. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. If people spend less time outdoors they will certainly become short-sighted.B. There are fewer short-sighted Singaporean Children than Australian children becausethey have more knowledge of protecting their eyesight.C. There will be fewer risks of getting short-sighted if people spend two or threehours a day playing outside.D. When people begin to go to school they will become long-sighted.3. What is the fifth paragraph mainly about?A. Why natural daylight has a special chemical.B. Why daylight prevents people from becoming short-sighted.C. Why daylight is much brighter than indoor light.D. What the special chemical which can stop eyeballs from growing out of shape is.参考答案1. D 2. C 3. B【实战训练】 B中考英语阅读理解----音乐与椅子Do you know how to play a game called “Musical Chairs”? It is easy to play and most people enjoy it. All you need are some chairs, some people and some way of making music. You may use a piano or any other musical instrument, if someone can play it. You may use a tape recorder. You can even use a radio.Put the chairs in a row. The chairs may be put in twos, back to back. A better way is to have the chairs in one row with each chair facing in the opposite direction to the chair next to it.The game is easy. When the music starts, the players walk round the chairs. Everyone goes in the same direction, of course, they should walk in time to the music. If the music is fast they should walk quickly. If the music is slow, they should walk slowly. The person playing music cannot see the people in the game. When the music stops, the players try to sit on the chairs. If a person cannot find a chair to sit on, he drops out. Then, before the music starts again, one chair must be taken away. When the music stops again, one more player will be out.At last, there will be two players and one chair. The one who sits on the chair when the music stops is the winner.◆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年中考英语二轮复习阅读理解优编题(7)(2)第一篇(2019中考科普环保类选练)What will the house of the future look like? Could it have gardens on its walls, or a pool with fish for dinner? Architects believe that they are all possibilities. The only thing for sure is that the houses will be as green as possible.The tree houseMany architects in the world would like to build a “tree house.” Like a leaf, the surface of the house collects sunlight during the day. The energy can be used to heat water, produce electricity, and even create fresh air for the home. The “root” (根) of the house is deep under the ground. It uses the soil (土壤) to the home’s temperature.The Lizard houseLike a lizard (蜥蜴), changing color with the weather is the most important design of a lizard house. When it’s i n the bright sun, the cover of the house will turn dark to protect it from strong heat. During dark days, it turns white and takes in as much light and heat as possible to produce energy.Meals at homeThis design is perhaps as much about the future of food production asarchitecture (建筑风格). It has gardens on the outside wall of the house. People can plant tomatoes, carrots and green tea on them. So every day in the morning, you just need to walk outside and collect your meals.Learning from the pastLooki ng to the future isn’t the only way to be green. Sometimes, ancient techniques (古老的技术) can also help cut down energy use. For example, a chimney (烟囱) can be a useful air conditioner because it is easier of hot air to flow out at the chimney.1. We can heat water, produce electricity or create fresh air for thehome .A. with the root of aleaf. b. with the energy from sunlight.C. with the soil under the groundD. with gardens on its walls.2. What will happen to the cover of the lizard house when it’s in the bright sun?A. It will take inlight.b. It will produce energy.C. It will turndark.D. It will turn white.3. The passage seems to tell us that meals at home in thefuture .A. will be moredelicious.b. need more cooks.C. cost as much aspossible.D. will be greener.4. A chimney can be a useful air conditioner but it used tocause .A. pollution. b.accident. C. noise. D. techniques.5. What is the best title of the passage?A. Green house of thefuture. b. The greener, the better.C. How to build greenhouses. D. Changes of the houses.参考答案BCDAA第二篇For many years scientists have said that the earth is getting warmer. Now they have found something new-hot cities! IFor example, the city of Atlanta in Georgia has rooftop temperatures of up to 50 degrees while it is 27 degrees in the streets! At night, the outsides of the building stay so hot that the heat of the city causes storm over the city.China also has the same kind of problems. Every year more farming land is used for factories or offices. More housing is needed, too. As people ow roads are needed and new car parks are built in the city centers. This all makes the city hotter.It is not easy to change the situation. City planners say that we should plant more trees in the middle of cities. Every new street should have trees on both sides, they say. Trees make the temperatures lower, so we should have more trees in our parks and squares. Also we should paint our roofs white. Ie so hot. Every roof in a hot and sunny country should have solar roof panels. The electricity from these can be used to run the air conditioners in the building.People continue to cut down forests around the cities. This makes the problem worse. Cities are growing faster and faster. By the year 2025, 80% of the world’s population will be living in cities. If we go on like this, there will not be enough farmland to feed everyone in the world.1. The best title for the passage is _______.A. The earth is getting warmerB. More land is neededC.
