I was looking forward to a quiet view of the art works. A young couple(夫妇) viewing the paintings ahead of me chatted nonstop （不停地） between themselves. I watched them a moment and decided the wife was doing all the talk. I admired the husband’s patience for putting up with her continuous talk. Distracted by their noise, I moved on. I met with them several times as I moved through the different rooms of art. Each time I heard her constant burst of words, I moved away quickly. I was standing a t thecounter ofthe museum gift shop making a purchase when the couplecame near to the exit. Before they left, the man reached into his pocket and pulled out a white object. He extended it into a long stick and then tapped his way into the coatroom to get hiswife’s jacket. “He’s a brave man.”The clerk at the counter said,” Most of us would giveup if we were blinded at such a young age. During his recovery he made a promise that his life wouldn’t chang e. So, as before, he and his wife come in whenever there’s a new art show.”“But what do es he get out of the art?”I asked, “He can’t see.” “Can’t see?You’re wrong.He sees a lot. More than you or I do.” The clerk said, “His wife describes each painting sohe can see it in his head.” I learned something about patience, courage and love that day. Isaw the patience of a young wife describing paintings to a person without sight and the courageof a husband who would not allow blindness to change his life.

The proper western dinner at a fine restaurant is one of manners, focusing on conversation. You are expected to have knowledge of table manners such as what folk or knife to use, as these are essential in western dining. The meal would consist of several courses including a soup or salad, an appetizer, the main dish, and a dessert. The atmosphere (气氛) will be filled with light music that would only serve as background as people communicate with each other. The decorations are usually sparse (稀少) and are only meant to highlight (突出) the atmosphere that is being created by the music. This type of dining is different from the dining experience in most restaurants in China. However, with the increase in international ism (国际性), more restaurants are opening which reflect the more western dining style. The Chinese people, now more wealthy and knowledgeable (有知识的) about international customs, are beginning to join in this dining experience. This is not to say that people have given up the deep richness in culture that Chinese food represents. It only means that more choices and tastes are becoming available to population. This represents a significant improvement as it will change the perception (观念) that the height of western dining is fast food. As cultural communication expands, knowledge of western food will improve.( )1.The proper western dinner focuses on ________.A. atmosphereB. foodC. conversationD. music( )2.What is essential when eating a western meal?A.T able manners.B. Food.C. Wearing.D. Music.( )3.What courses are included in a western meal?A. A soup or salad, the main dish, and tea.B. A soup or salad, an appetizer, the main dish, and a dessert.C. An appetizer, the main dish, and light music.D. An appetizer, the main dish, and dancing.( )4.Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. People use forks and knives in Chinese dining.B. The decorations in western restaurant are colorful.C. The Chinese people have given up their food culture.D. The eating customs in the West is a little different from that in China. ( )5.Why are more restaurants with western style open in China today?A. Because the i nternationalism increases.B. Because they want to make more profit.C. Because Chinese people enjoy western restaurants.D. Because the Chinese people would like to know more about western food customs.。

【英语】九年级上册英语阅读理解专项训练及答案及解析一、英语阅读（日常生活类）1．阅读理解When it comes to helping developing countries, we often think about offering money in order that they can build schools and hospitals, buy food and medicine, or find clean water supplies. These seem to be the most important basic needs in their lives. However, it's far from enough. We have to come up with better ideas.A man called Nicholas Negroponte invented a cheap laptop computer, which he decided to invent after he visited a school in Cambodia. The laptop which Mr. Negroponte has designed is not the same as the normal one that you can buy in the shops. One difference is that it will be covered in rubber so that it is strong and won't be damaged easily. As an electricity supply can be a problem in developing countries, the computer also has a special handle in order that children can wind the computer up to give it extra power when needed.This special laptop computer will cost less than 100 US dollars and Mr. Negroponte wants to produce as many as 15 million laptop computers in the first year. The idea is that these computers will help the children's education as they will be able to access the Internet. These computers might not benefit the people in developing countries immediately, but by improving children's education they should help people to find their own solutions to their problems in the long term.Another idea to help children in developing countries is to recycle old mobile phones so that they can be used again. In the UK. And probably in many other countries too, millions of mobile phones are thrown away every year. The waste crested by throwing away thee old phones is very bed for the environment, so it seems to be an excellent idea to achieve two important goals at the same time. We will reduce the waste we produce and help others. In other words, we will be able to" kill two birds with one "and that is always a good thing.（1）The underlined phrase "wind up" in paragraph 2 means .A. 吹风B. 给……上发条C. 摇上D. 利用空气……使……（2）The laptop computer that Mr. Negroponte has designed .A. will be damaged much easier than the normal oneB. has a special handle to access the InternetC. is cheap and can run with extra powerD. can be helpful to find the people's own solutions（3）According to the passage，what benefit can we get from recycling old mobile phones?A. We can reduce the waste to protect the environment.B. We can help children in developing countries reuse the old mobile phones.C. it is good for the environment and very educative for phone users.D. It not only reduces the waste produced by developed countries but also helps the children in developing countries.（4）Mr. Negroponte's cheap computer is mentioned in the passage to .A. illustrate the kindness of people in the developed countriesB. tell us what high technology can help peopleC. show how to find business opportunities in developing countriesD. give an example of how to help developing countries（5）Which is the best idea the author gives us to help the developing countries?A. We need to help people in developing countries to help themselves，not just throw money at the problem.B. We should spend much money helping people in developing countries build more schools and hospitals.C. We should think about giving help to developing countries more often.D. We should help the people in developing countries by improving children's education immediately.【答案】（1）B（2）C（3）D（4）D（5）A【解析】【分析】主要讲了Nicholas Negroponte发明了一种便宜的手提电脑和循环使用手机来帮助发展中国家。

阅读理解专项训练（27）AHave you ever wondered why birds sing? Maybe you thought that they were just happy. After all, you prob ably sing or whistle(吹口哨) when you are happy.Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy. However they sing most of the time for a very different reason. Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.Do you know what a territory is'? A territory is an area that an animal, usually the male, claims(声明) as its own. Only he and his family are welcome there. No other families of the same species(物种) are welcome. Your yard and house are your territory where only your family and friends are welcome. If a stranger should enter your territory and frighten you, you might shout. Probably this would be enough to frighten him away.If so, you have actually scared the stranger away without having to fight him. A bird does the same thing. But he expects an outsider(外人) almost any time, especially at nesting(筑巢) season. So he is screaming all the time, whether he can see an outsider or not. This screaming is what we ca ll a bird's song, and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.Birds sing louder in the spring when they are trying to attract a mate(配偶) and warn others not to enter the territory of theirs.You can see that birds have a language of their own. Most of it has to do with attracting mates and setting up territories.1 Some scientists believe that most of the time bird's singing is actually _________ .A. an expression of happinessB. a way of warningC. an expression of angerD. a way of greeting2. What does the underlined(划线的) word " territory" mean?A. A place where families of other species are living.B. A place where a bird may shout at the top of its voice.C. An area where birds fight against each other.D. An area which a bird considers to be its own.BPlay is the basic(基本的) business of childhood, and in recent years research has shown the great importance of play in the development of a human being. From earliest infancy(婴儿), every child needs chances and right materials for play, and the main tools(工具) of play are toys. The main function(功能) of toys is to suggest, encourage and play. To succeed in this, they must be good toys, which children will play with often, and will come back again and again. Therefore, it is important to choose suitable toys for different stages(阶段) of a child's development.In recent years, research on baby development has shown that the standard a child is likely to reach, within the range of his inherited(遗传的) abilities, is largely determined in the first three years of his life. So a baby's ability to benefit from the right play materials should not be underestimated(低估). A baby who is encouraged, talked to and shown things and played with, has the best chance of growing up successfully.In the next stage, from three to five years old, curiosity(好奇心) knows no bounds. Every type of suitable toys should be made available to the child, for trying out, experimenting and learning, for discovering his own particular ability: Bricks and jigsaws(七巧板) and construction toys; painting, scribbling(涂鸦) and making things; sand and water play; toys for imaginative and pretending play-the first social games for learning to play and get on with others.But at the third stage of play development-from five to seven or eight years old- the child is at school. But for a few more years play is still the best way of learning, at home or at school. It is easier to see which type of toys the child most enjoys.Until the age of seven or eight, play and work mean much the same to a child. But once reading has been mastered, then book s become the main source(来源)of learning. Toys are still interesting and valuable, which lead up to new hobbies, but their significance has changed to a child of nine or ten years old, toys and games mean, as to adult s, relaxation and fun.5. What does the writer want to tell us in the first paragraph?A. Children should choose toys by themselves.B. Children like playing, but they don't need any toys.C. Children should be given different toys as they grow up.D. Children should be given the same toys as they grow up.CAre you sometimes a little tired and sleepy in the early afternoon? Many people feel this way after lunch. They may think that eating lunch is the cause of the sleepiness. Or, in summer, they may think it is the heat. However, the real reason lies inside their bodies. At that time — about eight hours after you wake up — your body temperature goes down. This is what makes you slow down and feel sleepy. Scientists have tested sleep habits in experiments where there was no night or day. The people in these experiments almost always followed a similar sleeping pattern (模式). They slept for one long period and then for one short period about eight hours later.In many parts of the world, people take naps (小睡) in the middle of the day. This is especially true in warmer climates, where the heat makes work difficult in the early afternoon. Researchers are now saying that naps are good for everyone in any climate. A daily nap gives one a more rested body and mind and therefore is good for health in general. In countries where naps are traditional, people often suffer less from problems such as heart disease.Many working people, unluckily, have no time to take naps. Though doctors may advise taking naps, employers(雇主) do not allow it! If you do have the chance, however, here are a few tips about making use of your nap. Remember that the best time to take a nap is about eight hours after you get up. A short sleep too late in the day may only make you feel more tired and sleepy afterward. This can also happen if you sleep for too long. If you do not have enough time, trya short nap – even ten minutes of sleep can be helpful.9. Why do people feel sleepy in the early afternoon according to the text?A. They eat too much for lunch.B. They sleep too little at night.C. Their body temperature becomes lower.D. The weather becomes a lot warmer.DThere was a story many years ago of a school teacher--- Mrs. Thompson. She told the children on the first day that she loved them all the same. But that was a lie. There in the front row was a little boy named Teddy Stoddard. He didn’t play well with the other children and he always needed a bath. She did not like him.Then Mrs. Thompson got to know that Teddy was actually a very good boy before the death of his mo ther. Mrs. Thompson was ashamed of herself. She felt even worse when, like all her other students, Teddy brought her a Christmas present too. It was his mother’s perfume(香水)。
