外研版英语九年级阅读理解试题及答案Scientists have worked for twelve years to develop what they call Green Super Rice. The “green” in Green Super Rice means environmentally friendly. “Super” means the rice can grow well in bad soil conditions and keep away insects and diseases. Researchers say it will produce at least as much grain as other rice plants but with fewer inputs.Modern rice plants produce two to three times more grain than that was possible before the 1960s. but they also require large amounts of water and chemical fertilizers. In the 1960s, scientists created crops that produced bigger harvests in what became known as the Green Revolution. It helped many people to get rid of hunger. But modern rice plants require too much water and too much use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides that can hurt the environment. And farmers may be too poor to buy these things to grow modern rice plants.The developers of Green Super Rice do not use genetic engineering. In that way they avoid the high costs as well as the problems connecting with getting permission to plant genetic crops. Anna McClung leads a rice-breeding center for the United States Agriculture Department. She praises the researchers working on Green Super Rice. But she also says that combining many different genes into one plant without genetic engineering requires a lot of plant breeding.The research is still going on. The researchers on the Green Super Rice project continue to help farmers produce more with less.( )1. When did the scientists begin to work on Green Super Rice?A. In the late 19th century.B. In the early 20th century.C. In the late 20th century.D. In the early 21st century.( )2. What does the second paragraph tell us?A. The beginning of modern ricde.B. The advantages and disadvantages of modern rice.C. The ways of creating and growing modern rice.D. Modern rice and our everyday life.( )3. Why isn’t genetic engineering used to develop Green Super Rice?A. Because doing so can reduce the costs.B. Because scientists don’t want to do so.C. Because the technology isn’t perfect.D. Because this kind of rice doesn’t need it.( )4. What does Anna McClung think of Green Super Rice?A. She thinks the researchers should use genetic engineering.B. She thinks different greens should be combined into more than one plant.C. She thinks we needn’t develop Green Super Rice.D. She thinks it is not easy to develop Green Super Rice.( )5. What is the main difference between modern rice and Green Super Rice?A. Modern rice is better for the environment.B. Green Super Rice is better for the environment.C. Modern rice is much more important than Green Super Rice.D. Green Super Rice doesn’t taste delicious.CDADB1. 请闭上眼睛无五分钟，好好休息一下。

Remember to carry one when you go to 2 . It will help you translate the menu and 3 with the service staff when they ask a question you don’t understand. When you have a seat you can say, “Per favore?” (“ 4 ”). The waiter will bring you a menu and ask you what you’d like to drink. Decide what you want for the appetizer, first course, second course and vegetable side dish. If you just order one course, the 5 may say, ”E dopo?” (“And then?”J) Let him know you finish 6 by saying “E tutto” (“That’s all”). When you’ve done with the meal, the waiter may ask what you’d like for dessert. Say “Non capisco” (“I don’t understand”) if the waiter asks you a question you can’t translate . They’ll usually either slow down or attempt to say it in English.Look up your phrase book for the pronunciation of the 7 words listed above. You don’t have to memorize them—you can write out a cheat sheet and keep it in your 8.9 slowly. Even if you pronunciation isn’t correct, your attempt will be appreciated. You can always just point to what you want on the menu. If you don’t know what something on the 10 is, you can say “Que cosa?” (“What’s this?”).

In fact, Driscoll has won the wheelchair division of the Boston Marathon seven times. She has also won medals in shorter races at the Olympics and the Paralympics（残运会）. She is a star basketball player.As a child Driscoll wore leg braces （脚支架）to help her walk. However, she enjoyed sports with other kids and taught herself to ride a bike. When Driscoll was 14, she fell off her bike and injured her hip（臀部）. After that she had to use a wheelchair.At first Driscoll feared that being in a wheelchair meant giving up sports. Then a friend talked her into trying wheelchair soccer. Driscoll loved it. By the time she went to college, Driscoll was a good athlete in wheelchair sports such as soccer, tennis, and ice hockey.Driscoll’s college coach told her to try racing marathon distances — more than 26 miles. Driscoll won the 1990 Boston Marathon on her first try. In 1994 she lowered her time by almost ten minutes. To do this, Driscoll sometimes reached downhill speeds of nearly 50 miles per hour!Years of walking with crutches gave Driscoll a strong upper body. She trains hard six days a week. In the gym Driscoll lifts 200-pound weights, almost twice her body weight.Outdoors, Driscoll races along in her chair for 25 miles at a stretch.

Many things changed when you arrived. We needed a teacher, and you were there.It wasn’t very long before we realized that you were teaching us much more than English. You taught us that it was repectable to be blind. You taught us that with hard work we could get any aims we set for ourselves. We needed a good model, and you were there.As we grow older, many of us joined the organized blind movement in the 1960’s. We looked at you, and you moved bravely forward, leading us moving forward. We needed a leader, and you were there.There are no words to describe the influence that you personaly have had on the lives of tens of thousands of blind people, youg and old, rich and poor. Because of you, many of us have achieved our aims. We needed a friend, and you were there.I love you because of what you have meant to my life personally.

Most of the students took turns to show their ideas actively.One boy put up his hand and shouted, “I want to be a doctor.” Another girl said, “I want to be a businesswoman.” And so it went on. The teacher smiled and said, “我很高兴你们都有梦想.”However, the boy sitting in the back of the classroom looked confused and didn’t say anything. The teacher noticed that and asked, “ How about you, Jimmy? ” Jimmy answered, “ I don’t know what I want to do in the future.” And his classmates started to laugh. The teacher stopped them and said, “Boys and girls, listen! 问这一问题的目的是让你考虑一下自己的将来。

Her parents told her that when they moved from their last house, they would have a new and shiny(亮闪闪的) house. But the house is small and old.Many people live in Mango Street, in a big old house, Esperanza lives behind it with her family. A lot of the people who have come from Mexico don't speak English. Many miss their home country. Esperanza understands their sadness, but she also feels at home in America. She is an American, but her roots(根) will always be Latino. Esperanza is young. Like her friends, she has to grow up fast. She is stuck between being a girl and being a woman. In the poor and dangerous area where she lives, this is difficult for her. Mexican people usually live in a close neighbourhood. This means that people live packed(挤塞的) in together. Everyone knows everyone else. So Esperanza knows other older girls that do things she is not comfortable doing. It is just a fact of her life.But Esperanza has good friends too. She becomes friends with two sisters named Lucy and Rachel. They ride bikes and have adventures(冒险) together. Esperanza is also friends with a girl named Alicia.

Many experts use it to tell people it's important to have a good eating habit. For example, too much sweet food makes a person overweight. To avoid being fat, kids are told to keep off sweet food. But, a team of American scientists have found something new about eating sweet food."When we say some people are 'sweet', we mean they are kind and friendly to us. Perhaps this word can help us learn more about people's feelings and acts," said Brian Meier, a scientist from the study team. "Taste is something we experience every day. What we have done is find whether we can know someone's character and behaviour according to his or her taste."In one of their experiments, students were asked questions about their character - whether, for example, theywere soft- hearted or not. Then they were asked to make a list of their favourite food. According to their answers, the scientists found that the students who liked sweet food were nicer.In their another experiment, the scientists found that people who preferred sweet food, such as cookies and chocolate, were more willing to help other people in need, and those who ate non-sweet food such as chips weren't. For example, people with a sweet tooth were more likely to volunteer to clean up their city, visit sick children in hospital and so on.The result of the experiments is that people's helpfulness or being nice has something to do with their taste for sweet food. So eating sweet food is a useful way to make people nice and helpful. Next time, try some ice-cream. （1）The underlined word "it" refers to "________________".A. the sweet foodB. the eating habitC. the American teamD. the English saying（2）According to the result of the experiments, sweet food makes people ________________.A.overweightB.excitedC.relaxedD.friendly（3）The scientists found that people who preferred _________________ were less helpful.A.ice-creamB.chocolateC.chipsD.cookies（4）According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A.There is some relationship between someone's character and his or her taste.B.Kids are told to eat more sweet food.C.What you put in your mouth will show your character.D.If people want to be kind or friendly, they can try some sweet food.（5）It can be learnt from the passage that ________________.A.scientists asked college students questions about their futureB.scientists told college students not to eat sweet foodC.people with a sweet tooth are more willing to help othersD.people's character has nothing to do with their taste（1）Who is writing the postcard?A.

This competition, which we have had twice, has been a huge success. But this year, we have had more entries(参赛作品) than ever before!We have received many wonderful suggestions, including one that suggested there should be a festival of shoes! This was certainly a creative idea, but not surprisingly, our judges(裁判) liked other suggestions more!The winning suggestion was from Henry Chan, who suggested that there should be a festival of bicycles. It was the judges' favourite. Henry, who is in Grade Eight, said that he went to school by bicycle every day and enjoyed taking bicycle trips very much. He added that so many public bicycles were in use in our city that it would be a shame not to celebrate them.As part of the festival a bicycle trip will be organized in the city. Then students will hold a ten-metre bicycle riding competition in which anyone who can ride the slowest wins. What's more, you students are called on to ride bicycles to school as often as possible.The Bicycle Festival will start on June 18th and last two days.

In fact, everyone has the power to change their living habits to help reduce it. Many local governments call on their people to take action to make the air cleaner.Transport is one of the biggest contributors(促成物) to haze. When, where, bow, why and what you drive all affect air quality. When one drives to work for one year, he uses as much energy as a bus rider uses in 10 years. So walk or ride your bicycle to work or school whenever possible. If it is necessary, you can use public transport instead of your car. Each person using public transport for a year instead of a car can save nearly a tonne of pollutants, including CO2, from going into the atmosphere.Carpooling is another way to reduce carbon emissions (排放). Carpooling is the sharing of car journeys so that more than one person travels in a car. It immediately reduces your car's emissions by half.What you do inside your living space can have a big effect on the air quality outside it. You can do a lot of things inside and around your home that will help you pollute less and save some money.A large amount of our energy supply comes from burning coal, another contributor to haze. By cutting down your electricity use, you are cutting down on haze. So you may try to reduce your use of electricity by turning off lights, using your air conditioner wisely during the summer months, or updating some of your electrical appliances to low-energy models. For example, you can use energy-saving lamps that require less energy and last 10 times longer than common bulbs.（1）Which does the writer think should play an important role in reducing haze?A. City cleaners.B. Haze producers.C. Local governments.D. Common people.（2）We can infer(推断) from the passage that the writer thinks .A. cars can be used only when people have toB. cars should be given up as soon as possibleC. cars must be improved to reduce air pollutionD. cars may cause the most serious pollution of all（3）We should reduce the use of electricity mainly because .A. we can save a lot of money by using less energyB. coal is now becoming rarer and rarer on our planetC. harmful things come out while electricity is producedD. electrical appliances send out something harmful to our air（4）Which can be the best title for the passage?A. What Are Causing Haze Around UsB. What You Can Do to Reduce HazeC. How Dangerous Haze Is to Our LifeD. How Important It Is to Reduce Haze9.阅读理解Cross- country skier Man Dandan won the women's 1.4 km individual sprint here on Monday, earning China's first gold at the eighth Asian Winter Games in 2017."I was in good form today," said the 28 year-old girl after winning the title in the final round with 3 minutes and 48. 29 seconds.

Some people think it is healthy and clean. Others drink bottled water because it's easy--you can carry it around with you. In hot countries, like Greece, we often buy bottles of cold water in the summer.However, making tots of plastic is not a good idea for many reasons. First of all, we need a lot of oil for plastic products. We usually use oil as a source(资源) of energy. If we reduced the number of bottles we made, we wouldn't need so much oil. Plastic bottles also pollute the environment. If we recycled all our plastic bottles, we wouldn't need so much space for rubbish dumps. But in Greece, we don't recycle much of the plastic we use. In2006, Greeks recycled only about 10% of plastic waste. The rest became rubbish on land and in rivers and seas.So next time you want to throw away a plastic bottle in the litter bin, stop and think. If you recycled it, you would help the environment. But what can you do when there isn't a recycling bin near you? Well, there are lots of useful ways that you can use your bottles again. For example, an empty bottle makes a great piggy bank for your pocket money, and if you cut a bottle in half, you will have a plant pot. Go green! You can make a difference. （1）What is not mentioned about bottled water in this passage?A. It's healthy.B. It's clean.C. It's easy.D. It's expensive.（2）Which is the best way to deal with used plastic bottles?A. To recycle them.B. To make a piggy bank.C. To make a plant pot.D. To drop them into the river.（3）The underlined part in this passage tells us " ".A. To make a different life, you'd better go outsideB. To look different, you'd better wear green clothesC. To protect the environment, you can do somethingD. To go green, you should use plastic products答案解析部分一、阅读理解1.答案：（1）A（2）B（3）A（4）C（5）A解析：主要讲了Esperanza住在美国芝加哥一个贫穷的拉丁美洲街区，房子又小又旧，及其危险困难的生活。

外研版英语九年级下册阅读理解、完形填空试题及答案6Imagine the world without bridges. We wouldn’t get across rivers easily. In fact, we have a long history of using bridges.The first bridges were provided by nature. A tree that fell across a stream or a river simply became a wooden bridge. It was strong enough for a person or two to walk on at a time, but not for too many people. Then people began to make bridges with thick ropes. In China and other places, rope bridges are still used. They’re strong enough for more people to walk on.Later, people built arch bridge with stones. Arch bridges are among the strongest. Some were built more than 1,500 years ago and they are still in use. Even today, people build arch bridges, but usually of steel.Years later, the suspension bridge appeared. It is a modern type of bridge. It’s very common type of bridge. It’s very strong and each of its steel cables can hold thousands of pounds of weight. Probably the most familiar suspension bridge is California’s Golden Gate Bridge, with a main span of 1,280 meters. When it was finished in 1937, it was the world’s longest suspension bridge. In 1964, New York’s Verrazano Narrows Bridge beat it with a span of 1,298 meters. Then, in 1981, the record was broken by England’s Humber Bridge, with a span of 1,410 meters.

Not getting enough sleep can make us sick.Sleep and our immune(免疫)systemThe immune system protects the body fro m diseases and infections(传染). Not getting enough sleep hurts this protective system.The Mayo Clinic is a research hospital in the United States. Its website explains that when we sleep our bodies produce proteins(蛋白质)that support sleep and help us fight infections. They add that infection-fighting antibodies(抗体)are reduced during periods when you don't get enough sleep.A new study from the University of Washington in the U. S. seems to confirm this. Dr. Nathaniel Watson was the lead writerof the study. Watson says his study shows that the immune system works best when the body gets enough sleep. For the study, Watson and his team studied 11 pairs of twins. This is an important difference from other sleep studies. Other research did not study twins. Researchers found that the twin who slept less had a weaker immune system.Watson says his study showed for the first time that a long-term lack(缺乏)of sleep shuts down parts of the immune system. He says parts that move white blood cells around the body are influenced. White blood cells fight infections in the body.Watson's study provides more evidence(证据)that sleep is important to"overall health". And sleep is especially important to immune health.The researchers published their findings in the magazine Sleep.How much sleep is enough?To stay in good health, experts at the Mayo Clinic say that adults should get 7 to 8 hours of sleep. Teenagers need 9 to 10 hours. And school-aged children may need more than 10 hours of sleep a night.Experts say our sleep becomes poor in our 30s. By the time we reach our 50s, the average person has lost 50 percent of their ability to have a restful sleep. These people also have trouble falling asleep and staying asleep through the night. From middle age on, they say these problems only get worse, and they can influence our health.Signs you may not be getting enough sleep●You're always hungry or you've gained weight.●You have trouble making decisions.●You have trouble remembering things. ●Your skin doesn't look good.●You are having trouble seeing.( )1.

Here are some suggestions to him and other teenagers in this situation.Don't feel worried. It's not your fault(过错)! Being bullied can make you feel very lonely and angry, but you are not alone. Don't feel that you have to hide the problem. You should find a person you can trust, and tell them. It might be your teacher, your parents, or even your friend's parents. After you tell someone, you will get some support and feel some relief (解脱).Speaking to an adult might make you nervous, but here are other things you can do.

Include all the details about what the bullies (欺人者) do, as well as when and where the bullying happens. You can use it as proof to show what is going on. And it is a wonderful idea to show your letter or diary to a teacher or another responsible adult.

It's a common belief that over time, pet owners start to look like their animals. Now comes theterrifying news that cats look up to their owners as role models and copy their behaviour.Next time you reach for your fridge, think twice. If your cat is watching, she will probably overeat aswell.In a new study from the University of Messina, it turns out that indoor cats who live closely to their owners "mirror" the lives of their caregivers. They sleep at the same time, eat at the same time, and can even become more or less social depending on the behaviour of their owners."Cats are clever animals with a long memory," Jane Brunt, director of the Catalyst Council, told Discovery News. "They watch and learn from us, noting the patterns of our actions, knowing where their food is kept and what time to expect to be fed, how to open the cupboard door that's been improperly closed, and where their feeding and toileting areas are." Because cats copy our habits, if you spend a lot of time raiding(搜刮)the fridge, your cat will return to its food bowl for that midnight snack, too. According to the study, this explains why "human and cat overweight rates often seem to match".There's no word if drinking green tea and making sure you go to yoga will benefit (使受益) your cat, but based on the study, it sounds like sticking to a healthy eating and sleeping habit is best for both of you.There's a lot we can learn from our cats in return. "When they sit softly breathing , eyes half closed, the sense of peace and calm that comes over us is like a private less on in inner meditation(冥想), "Brunt said. They're probably pretty good at remaining calm.So, according to science, though we think that cats are not close to us all these years, it turns out they are in fact learning from us and looking up to us.

THIS year the US Mint will honor one of the country's most famous writers."Mark Twain", the pen name of Samuel Clemens(1835-1911) is loved by American readers for his novels Tom Sawyer(1876) and The Adventures of Huckberry Finn(1844).Now he is going to have his life and work commemorated(纪念) with special gold and silver coins.But does Twain need to be commemorated? It doesn't seem like people in the US will forget him. Twain once joked that a lack(缺少)of money is the root of all evil(邪恶)" but a lack of money with Twain's famous face on it wouldn't have made people forget about him.The Adventures of Huckberry Finn is thought to be his greatest works.Motherless Huck Finn is a young boy who shows the spirit of freedom. But it could be said that Huck's freedom really comes from Huck wanting to fly. When Huck gets away from his violent(暴力的) father, he isn't really looking for freedom, but survival.It's even more of a problem for a slave. Jim, the escaped(逃跑的) slave who Huck helps, makes Huck's life seem even better. It's easier not to be able to deal with someone who wants to force you to go to school than to have to fight a law that says you are a piece of property(财产).Huck and Jim's friendship, as shown by Mark Twain, is one of the great stories in American literature because it shows a white character, Huck, who gets an idea of the African American experience.Mark Twain is famous and would still be famous without any special coins. Anyway, the coins could be a reason to look again at the work of a writer who got under the skin of the US in the 19th century.With the race issue(种族问题) far from dead in the US today, perhaps Twain still has something to teach today's readers.( )1. How many novels is mentioned written by Mark Twain in this passage?A. OneB. TwoC. ThreeD. Four( )2. Why is The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn considered Twain's greatest works?A. It talks about how a black slave runs away from his violent owner.B. It describes an everlasting friendship between people of different races.C. It describes the social problem that a lack of money is the root of all evil.D. It talks about a white American understanding the African American experience. ( )3. According to the passage, which statement is NOT true?A. Huck gets away from his father for survival.B. Jim escapes from his slave owner for freedom.C. Twain dug deeply into American society of his times.D. Without the special coins, he'll probably be forgotten.( )4. The underlined phrase "far from dead" probably means _______.A. still being there.B. Becoming more serious.C. Being in danger.D. Gone for a long time.( )5. What's the main purpose of the article?A. To tell the story of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.B. To tell readers about the special coins created to honor Mark Twain.C. To explore why the US still remembers and honors Mark Twain.D. To draw readers' attention to the many race issues in the US today.6. 阅读理解；阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的四个选项(A. B. C. D)中, 选出最佳选项。

外研版英语九年级阅读理解试题及答案Scientists have worked for twelve years to develop what they call Green Super Rice. The “green”in Green Super Rice means environmentally friendly. “Super”means the rice can grow well in bad soil conditions and keep away insects and diseases. Researchers say it will produce at least as much grain as other rice plants but with fewer inputs.Modern rice plants produce two to three times more grain than that was possible before the 1960s. but they also require large amounts of water and chemical fertilizers. In the 1960s, scientists created crops that produced bigger harvests in what became known as the Green Revolution. It helped many people to get rid of hunger. But modern rice plants require too much water and too much use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides that can hurt the environment. And farmers may be too poor to buy these things to grow modern rice plants.The developers of Green Super Rice do not use genetic engineering. In that way they avoid the high costs as well as the problems connecting with getting permission to plant genetic crops.Anna McClung leads a rice-breeding center for the United States Agriculture Department. She praises the researchers working on Green Super Rice. But she also says that combining many different genes into one plant without genetic engineering requires a lot of plant breeding.The research is still going on. The researchers on the Green Super Rice project continue to help farmers produce more with less.( )1. When did the scientists begin to work on Green Super Rice?A. In the late 19th century.B. In the early 20th century.C. In the late 20th century.D. In the early 21st century.( )2. What does the second paragraph tell us?A. The beginning of modern ricde.B. The advantages and disadvantages of modern rice.C. The ways of creating and growing modern rice.D. Modern rice and our everyday life.( )3. Why isn 't genetic engineering used to develop Green Super Rice?A. Because doing so can reduce the costs.B. Because scientists don't want to do so.C. Because the technology isn 't perfect.D. Because this kind of rice doesn 'n t eed it.( )4. What does Anna McClung think of Green Super Rice?A. She thinks the researchers should use genetic engineering.B. She thinks different greens should be combined into more than one plant.C. She thinks we needn't develop Green Super Rice.D. She thinks it is not easy to develop Green Super Rice.( )5. What is the main difference between modern rice and Green Super Rice?A. Modern rice is better for the environment.B. Green Super Rice is better for the environment.C. Modern rice is much more important than Green Super Rice.D. Green Super Rice doesn't taste delicious.CDADB1•请闭上眼睛无五分钟，好好休息一下。

THIS year the US Mint will honor one of the country's most famous writers."Mark Twain", the pen name of Samuel Clemens(1835-1911) is loved by American readers for his novels Tom Sawyer(1876) and The Adventures of Huckberry Finn(1844).Now he is going to have his life and work commemorated(纪念) with special gold and silver coins.But does Twain need to be commemorated? It doesn't seem like people in the US will forget him. Twain once joked that a lack(缺少)of money is the root of all evil(邪恶)" but a lack of money with Twain's famous face on it wouldn't have made people forget about him.The Adventures of Huckberry Finn is thought to be his greatest works.Motherless Huck Finn is a young boy who shows the spirit of freedom. But it could be said that Huck's freedom really comes from Huck wanting to fly. When Huck gets away from his violent(暴力的) father, he isn't really looking for freedom, but survival.It's even more of a problem for a slave. Jim, the escaped(逃跑的) slave who Huck helps, makes Huck's life seem even better. It's easier not to be able to deal with someone who wants to force you to go to school than to have to fight a law that says you are a piece of property(财产).Huck and Jim's friendship, as shown by Mark Twain, is one of the great stories in American literature because it shows a white character, Huck, who gets an idea of the African American experience.Mark Twain is famous and would still be famous without any special coins. Anyway, the coins could be a reason to look again at the work of a writer who got under the skin of the US in the 19th century.With the race issue(种族问题) far from dead in the US today, perhaps Twain still has something to teach today's readers.( )1.

According to the passage, which statement is NOT true?A. Huck gets away from his father for survival.B. Jim escapes from his slave owner for freedom.C. Twain dug deeply into American society of his times.D. Without the special coins, he'll probably be forgotten.( )4. The underlined phrase "far from dead" probably means _______.A. still being there.B. Becoming more serious.C. Being in danger.D. Gone for a long time.( )5. What's the main purpose of the article?A.
