九年级中考英语阅读理解专练第（一）篇Tea and coffee are two of the most popular drinks in the world. However, people usually like one more than the other. These drinks also have very different uses.Tea drinking started in China over 4,000 years ago. Tea is made from leaves. These days, some people drink tea for health, using it to help with stress(压力) or losing weight. However, most people in tea-drinking countries think of tea as more than just a healthy drink. In fact, tea drinking in some countries is a part of the culture. In Turkey(土耳其), tea is always there when people meet. Whether in someone’s home or a company, tea is always offered as a way of welcoming. In the UK, homes and offices usually have tea time. Tea and other dishes are served at tea time in the afternoon. It is a way of relaxing with friends .Coffee came much later than tea, just over 1,000 years ago. Coffee is made from beans. Something in the coffee beans makes a person feel active. Most people do not drink coffee to relax. Instead, they drink coffee to get going. Many people drink coffee in the morning to help them wake up. Others will also drink coffee during short breaks in the afternoon to keep going through the working day. Some people may visit coffee shops just to meet and talk with friends. However, many people in coffee shops drink coffee while working on their computers.Is tea or coffee more common in your country? Between the two, which do you like to drink more?1.

Take famous poet Li Bai for example. His family nam e, which came from his father’s name, was Li. His given name was Bai, and his courtesy name was Taibai.People used their given names when they were among family members. But in social life, they called each other by their courtesy names to show respect. This was mostly done among people of similar age. If you were talking about yourself, or if your elders were talking about you, the given name would be used instead of the courtesy name.Men would get their courtesy names when they turned 20. It was a symbol of adulthood (成年礼). Women would get their courtesy names after getting married.One’s courtesy name often had something to do with one’s given name. For example, the name of Mencius was Meng Ke. His courtesy name was Ziyu. Both Ke and Ziyu mean “carriage (马车)”. Zhuge Liang’s given name was Liang, which means “bright”. His courtesy name was Kongming, which means “very bright”.1. How many parts are there in people’s names in ancient China?A. three.B. four.C. five.D. six.2.

Even though snowflakes are related to winter, she let others feel warmth, hope and light through her performance. “I’m also disabled and I want to do something for them with my music,” said Ma.Ma went blind at the age of two because of an illness. She became interested in music when she was young. She started to learn to play the piano at five and the violin at nine, experiencing the “colorful” music through sound and emotion.Ma’s mother Ha Chunyan, a former music teacher in a primary school, helped her memorize the music score (乐谱) before she played the piano. Ma could not see the keys and always played the wrong notes. It took her thousands of tries to play a piece correctly.Learning the violin was more challenging. Ma needed to feel the teacher’s hands, arms and back to learn the movements, and listen to the strings (弦) over and over again to feel the muscles (肌肉) herself.“After three years of learning, she still could not make any sound except terrible noises,” said Ha, who advised her daughter to give up the violin. But Ma said, “As I’ve been practicing so long, it’s hard to give up. I believe I will play better if I persist in practicing.”In 2018, Ma got a chance to follow Sheng Yuan and Cao Yuhan, famous musicians from the CentralConservatory of Music, to study music in Beijing. She left her home in Ningxia to follow her musical dream, though she knew there would be more challenges ahead.Ma expressed her excitement about performing at the big event. “All my hard work has paid off.

What about the erhu? The erhu is a traditional Chinese instrument. It is the most popular of the huqin family, and it has a long history.The modern erhu developed from the xiqin, which was played by many ethnic minorities (少数民族) during the Tang Dynasty. In the Song Dynasty, musicians began to use the erhu to perform different kinds of music, and itbecame quite a popular instrument. With the rise of some forms of folk art, the art of the erhu developed quickly during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It became an important accompanying (伴奏) instrument in different folk music. At present, it is used in both traditional and modern music, such as in pop, rock and jazz. It has even become a solo (独奏) instrument. One of the most famous musical pieces played on the erhu is Erquan Yingyue.As the erhu was mainly played by common people and the playing skills were passed down orally (口头地), there are few written records about the erhu that can be found. To study the history and the development of the erhu, historians (历史学者) usually turn to ancient paintings. The earliest pictures of this instrument were found in Yulin Caves and Eastern Thousand Buddha Caves in Gansu Province, where five erhu pictures were discovered on murals (壁画).1.

Little did he know that he would not only compete for his country but also take home gold. With the great excitement of winning an Olympic gold medal still fresh in his mind, Su wrote a letter to the president, telling him how lucky he felt to have made his dream come true.Su still remembers what Xi wrote in the reply, “The new era is the time for young people to realize their dreams.”“I have always kept those words in my mind,” Su said.“When I made up my mind to be a professional(职业的) snowboarder, I know there is a big gap between my performance(表现) and that of the top sportsmen in the world. But I have been working hard to realize my dream. Now my story shows the fact that hard work will pay off.” Su said.Su believes the sky is the limit. “Find the thing you love, believe in yourself and do your very best.

Most of them cover huge areas of land where nobody lives, and usually far way from cities. However, the National Parks in England include places where people live and work, as well as wild areas where there are few human activities.The National Parks in England are called “England’s Breathing Spaces” because they are places where people can go to be in the open air, away from the dirt and noise of cities. They provide wonderful scenes of mountains, woods, grasslands and wetlands. And there are plenty of activities to do in all of the National Parks in England. Visitors can walk or ride bikes for fun. Many of the parks put on activities for families.Every year there are about 110 million visitors to the parks, bringing many benefits(益处) to the areas. At the same time, it creates problems too. First, life can be difficult for local people. Car parks and roads are too crowded. Gift shops and cafes take the place of many everyday shops. Even house prices in some areas can become too high. Besides, country roads can be damaged, for too many people walk, cycle or ride horses on them. Roads can be rebuilt, but then they look less natural. Another big problem to the National Parks is litter. In the parks it is a danger to wild animals. Broken glass can also cause fires by focusing the rays of the sun. Such fires in wild places can be out of control.How can people help? All National Parks in England are making more rules, which tell people how to take good care of their environment. If these rules are followed, the National Parks will be well kept and continue to give pleasure to many people for a very long time.1.According to paragraph 1, what can we learn about the National Parks?A.There are only several national parks in the worldB.

In geographical newspapers第（八）篇During work hours, among the sounds of machines, the kitche n of Bach’s Bakery (面包房) is especially tidy and quiet, not because of any rules against talking during work hours, but because all of the workers have a hearing disability. They are hard-working and professional in their work, and use sign language to communicate with each other from time to time.Bach’s Bakery lies in Changsha City, Hunan Province. It is run by a German couple, Uwe Brutzer and his wife Dorothee Brutzer, who started it up ten years ago with the purpose of creating more jobs for those disabled in the neighborhood. So far, Bach’s Bakery has trained around 30 hearing disabled people. While some skilled workers found jobs in other bakeries and hotels and have been able to live on their own, several of them have stayed to work atthe bakery after they completed the training.The Brutzers’ work has won the support of many people in China. With the spread of news about the bakery, many Internet users learned about Bach’s Bakery and its inspiring story. As a result, many local people in Changsha as well as visitors from other parts of the country come to buy their products, Uwe said that public attention has encouraged them a lot and helped grow the bakery’s business, resulting in workers getting higher pay. However, what he values more is that, through media (媒体) reports, more people have come to understand that disabled people can work as well as other people when they are given chances.Now, as they are preparing to return to Germany, they have found a German couple teaching in China as the new managers, and handed over the bakery to a public welfare (福利) organization. Their wish is to continue providing free training for the hearing disabled and that the bakery will never be changed into a shop with moneymaking as its main goal.1.

What’s the best title for the passage?A. A Silent BakeryB. A Special WishC. The Success of the DisabledD. The Rules of Bach’s Bakery第（九）篇Scientists are looking for ways that we can effectively use the light and heat from the sun. One idea that has caught their imagination is solar roads. They are expected to produce clean and renewable energy.With solar panels on the surfaces, solar roads cost more than traditional roads. However, besides the functions of traditional roods, they have the panels to receive sunlight and change it into the energy to supply power to homes, factories and street lighting. There are four layers in a solar panel:•Base layer: It is made of insulation material and forms a good grip with the road below this layer.•Middle layer: This is the most important layer. It holds all kinds of power lines connecting all the solar parts in the panel, like LED lights and the heating system.•Top layer: This layer is super-strong glass. It allows the panel to hold the weight of the heaviest vehicles.•Capping: This is the topmost layer used to offer extra protection to the solar parts in the panel. The layer must be rough enough to provide the traction for the safety of vehicles.With the smart design, solar roads can successfully charge the vehicles on them. And the roads have inbuilt LED lights to replace the traditional rood signs and lines, which are usually painted and harmful to humans. What’s more, the heating systems in the solar roads can take care of the snow and ice on the roads for drivers.Test solar roads have been built in several countries (France, China, USA, etc.) since 2014. The first word solar road project, Metrics of Watt Way in France, was set up by a French company called Construction Colas. It was an example of low effectiveness. In the first year, it had been expected to produce around 767 kWh of energy a day, but it only produced 409 kWh. Even so, the production could increase with design improvements. Of course, more time is needed before this technology is put into use.Solar roads may not be widely used in the near future, but they are indeed great for an environment-friendly and energy-saving world.1. Solar roads ________.A. offer power to homesB. get energy from factoriesC. keep the sunlight awayD. cost less than traditional roods2. Which of the following about the layers of a solar panel is TRUE according to the passage?A. The base layer is the most important layer.B. There are many power lines in the middle layer.C. The top layer lies on the top of the solar panel.D. The capping should be smooth enough for drivers.3. The first world solar road project ________.A. was set up in China in 2014B. showed high effectiveness as expectedC. was started by a US companyD. could get better with design improvements4. What is the best title for the passage?A. Solar Roads: A Widely Used InventionB. Solar Roads: A Safety Guard for DriversC. Solar Roads: A New Idea for Clean EnergyD. Solar Roads: A Way to Produce LED Lights5. Which part of newspaper may you read this passage?A. HistoryB. FashionC. SportD. Environment第（十）篇Steven Spielberg is the world’s most famous director.

By his teens Steven had made his first short film, called The Great TrainCrash. Before long the Spielberg house began to look like a film set, with furniture and lights being moved around to prepare for a new film.He is skilled in making a film excite, sadden or amuse people as they watch it. Spielberg understands the life in the countryside, television and fast cars, all of which became more common in his childhood in 1950s America.

If a friend of yours asks you to have lunch with him, you may say something like this,“I’m afraid it’ll have to be someplace cheap, as I have very little money." The other person may say,“OK, I’ll meet you at McDonald’s."This means that the two agree to go Dutch, that is, each person pays for himself. He may also say,“Oh, no. I want to take you to lunch at Smith’s," or“I want you to try the Chinese dumplings there. They’re great." This means the person wants to pay for both of you. If you feel friendly towards this person, you can go with him and you needn’t pay for the meal. You may just say,“Thank you. That would be very nice."American customs（1） about who pays for dates（2） are much the same as in other parts of the world. In the old days, American women wanted men to pay for all the meals. But, today, a university（3） girl or a woman in business world will usually pay her wayduring the day. If a man asks her for a dance outside the working hours, it means “Come, as my guest（4）.” So as you can see, it is a polite thing to make the question clear at the very beginning.Notes:（1）custom/`kstm/n. 风俗（2）date/deIt/n.约会（3）university/、ju：nI`v：sItI/n.大学（4）guest/gest/n. 客人1.The passage tells us .A.how to eat outB.where to eat outC.what to eat outD.who pays for the meal2.If you have little money, .A.you’ll have a cheap mealB.you’ll borrow some from othersC.you’ll ask your friend to pay for your mealD.you won’t want your friends to ask you to dinner3.“Go Dutch" in this passage means .A.去饭馆B.就餐C.订餐D.各自付款4.Sometimes your friend takes you to lunch.

最新英语中考英语阅读理解100及答案经典一、初三英语阅读理解（含答案详细解析）1．阅读理解Some people think only school children do not agree with their parents, however, it is not true.Communication is a problem for parents and children of all ages. If it's hard for you to communicate with your parents, don't worry about it. Here are some advice for you to bridge the generation gap （代沟）.Don't argue （争辩） with your parents. Don't get to your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably won't consider your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you can't express yourself well if you are angry. Go someplace to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you don't think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter.Try to reach a compromise （和解）. Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Michael's mother didn't agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days.Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect （尊敬） to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong.Talk about your values. The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care about, and why. Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life.A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person. It is worth having a try!（1）According to the passage who have a communication problem?A. parents and other peopleB. only school kids and their parentsC. teachers and their studentsD. parents and children of all ages（2）How many pieces of advice does the writer give us to bridge the generation gap?A. 5.B. 4.C. 3.D. 2.（3）The underlined word "bridge" in the passage means "___________".A. 建立B. 消除C. 通过D. 到达（4）If the values of your parents are different from those of yours, you'd better ___________.A. argue with themB. keep away from themC. agree with them all the timeD. tell your parents what you care about（5）The best title for the passage is ___________.A.
