广东中考英语总复习——阅读理解

2024年中考英语二轮复习专题：阅读理解之记叙文（广东广州专用）ANow, studying online has become a common way of learning. The biggest difference between studying online and studying in school is that our teachers can’t ▲ us all the time, so we should be able to control ourselves. I didn’t know this at first. During our online classes, I often got distracted by my mobile phone.For this reason, I didn’t do well in the midterm exam. At that time, I realized that I had to do something to improve my online study habits, so I made up my mind to concentrate (集中注意力) on the online classes. Finally, I made much progress in the final exam. Now I want to offer you some ways I used to improve my learning during the online classes. Firstly, make a list of what you should do and what you shouldn’t do. Try your best to follow it. Don’t set your aims too high at first, because proper aims can help you to make the list work. Secondly, keep your mobile phones out of your reach when you study. Give them to your parents if necessary. Thirdly, make efforts to review and overcome your shortcomings in the process of review. You can ask your teachers for help or work with your classmates.In general, we should stick to keeping good learning habits all the time. I hope that all students can study better both online andoffline.1．Which word can be put in ____ ▲ ___ in paragraph 1 A．direct B．protect C．follow2．The writer improved his learning by ________.①setting a high aim at the beginning of his learning② making a list of what he should do and what he should n’t do③ making efforts to review and overcome his shortcoming④keeping the mobile phones away from him when he studied A．①②③ B．①②④ C．②③④3．The writer writes the passage to ________.A．introduce good ways about how to reviewB．tell us the advantages about studying onlineC．share experience and give advice about online learning 4．What’s the correct structure of this passageA．B．C．【答案】1．C 2．C 3．C 4．B【导语】本文主要讲述了在线学习的常见方式以及与传统学校学习的区别。

2020广东省中考英语专题训练阅读理解一Would you like to live in a city where buildings turn the lights off for you, and self-driving cars will find the nearest parking space themselves? Although it might sound a little far from you, living in a “smart” city like this could happen sooner than you think.Great changes have taken place in towns that we have lived in for centuries, while completely new cities are being built. One such place is the city of Songdo. Every home there will have a “telepresence” system (远程遥控系统)—allowing users to control the heating and looks, take part in video meetings, and receive education, health care and government services. Around the city, escalators (自动扶梯) will only move when someone is on them, and offices and schools will all be connected to the system.The great mind behind Songdo is from the company Cisco. In fact, technology companies around the world such as IBM, Siemens and Microsoft are already in the business.About 75% of the world's population will live in cities by 2050, so cities will need to be more modern to deal with the coming problems. “Making cities smarter is one way out, and I think this will in turn make cities greener,” said Dan Hill, head of a research company.()1. According to the text, living in a“smart”city ____.A. is not a green wayB. will be far from youC. will soon become trueD. is completely impossible()2. Paragraph 2 is mainly about ____.A. a city of the futureB. a meeting in SongdoC. a plan to build a houseD. a report on public health()3. Which company offers the great mind to build Songdo?A. Cisco.B. IBM.C. Siemens.D. Microsoft.()4. Dan Hill thinks that making cities smarter is one way to ____.A. drive people out of citiesB. control the world's populationC. develop his own companyD. solve the cities' coming problems()5. Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?A. Future EducationB. Smart CitiesC. Government ServicesD. Famous Companies二A new kind of burger is now popular in the United States. It looks and tastes thesame as any other burger. Butcompany behind the burger, Impossible Foods, uses peas and potatoes to make the“beef”. They take coloring,()1. People can use stem cells to grow the following meat EXCEPT ____.A. chickenB. beefC. porkD. mutton()2. The “beef” burger is now popular in ____.A. ChinaB. JapanC. AmericaD. Britain()3. Which is NOT the advantage of algae?A. The price is low.B. It grows quickly.C. It is very healthy.D. It tastes very good.()4. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. There are four steps to make lab-grown burgers.B. “Beef” burger looks different from any other burger.C. People use more water and land to make meat out of plants.D.

To tell people how to make lab-grown meat.D. To show why people should eat less meat.三People from north China are different from people in south China in many ways. For example, most people in the north tend (倾向) to prefer to eat meat, while southerners prefer vegetables. But where do these differences come from?A study of over 140,000 Chinese people has shown that genetics (遗传学) might hold the answer. Scientists from BGI-Shenzhen, a gene study center in China, found that six genes can cause genetic differences between people from different parts of China. This is a result of natural choice, which leads to different eating habits.According to the study, more people from north China carry the FADS2 gene than those fromsouth China. This gene helps to metabolize (代谢) fat in the human body. Therefore, people from north China are better able to digest (消化) meat and fat. This helps them live more easily in northern areas where there is more meat and fewer vegetables.Moreover, the study also showed that people from the south are more immune (有免疫力的) to certain illnesses than people from the north. For example, malaria (疟疾) was once widespread in some parts of south China. So people’s genes changed so that they could better resist the illness. However, there are also downsides. People from the south are more likely to have a certain kind of blood illness. The gene G6PD, which causes this illness, is more common in people from the south than those from the north. It seems that nature has a way of balancing itself out.()1. ______ cause people to have different eating habits.A. Their genesB. The weatherC. The food they growD. The houses they live()2. According to the passage, FADS2 ______.A. helps people put on weightB. helps people digest meatC. can help people live longerD. can cause a blood illness()3. From the passage, we know that people from the south ____.A. don't carry the gene G6PDB. are more immune to malariaC. are less likely to get blood illnessesD. have more healthy eating habits()4. The underlined word “resist” might mean ____ in Chinese.A. 抵抗B. 治疗C. 研究D. 传播()5. The passage mainly talks about ____.A. why Chinese people prefer to eat meatB. how people have different ways of digesting foodC. how genes can influence our habits and preferencesD. the progress Chinese scientists have made in studying genetics四Have you ever tried 3-D printing? A team of seven students from No. 34 Middle School in Zhengzhou, Henan, have won awards for their creative 3-D printing works. Two of the team's works took the top prize at the International Youth Innovation Design Competition, which was held in France this summer. One of their works had the theme “China's New Era (时代)”. The other work was an ancient Chinese palace, which they sent as a gift to local officials in Lille, France.The team members learned how to print in their school's 3-D printing club. They took classes twice a week to learn 3-D printing. To make 3-D-printed items, they first draw a blueprint. Then, they use a computer to design models of the pieces they need. After that, they use a 3-D printer to print the pieces and put them together.But knowing how to use the tools is just one part of mastering 3-D printing. One also has to have imagination. To show the theme “China's New Era”, they printed out items(项目) representing(代表) high-speed trains, bike sharing, cashless payment and online shopping. They placed these items around a dragon, which represented China. They made this work within just three hours, winning a national 3-D printing competition in China and later the international competition.When they got to the international competition, they wanted to present something that represented traditional Chinese culture. They were inspired(得到灵感) by a trip to the Palace Museum. “When we saw the buildings there, we thought ‘that's it'!” said Zhang Jiuxing, 14. They took photos of the buildings and did a lot of research to make their 3-D-printed works more realistic. The students will continue to learn about this technology and make more creative things.()1. Where have the students won the prize at the International Youth Innovation Design Competition?A. In Zhengzhou.B. In Henan.C. In France.D. In China.()2. The underlined word “blueprint” in Paragraph 2 means ___.A. 油画B. 蓝图C. 打印机D. 蓝牙()3. Paragraph 3 mainly talks about ____.A. the importance of tools in 3-D printing competitionB. the importance of creation in 3-D printing competitionC. the importance of imagination in daily lifeD. the importance of competition in daily life()4. What did they do to represent Chinese culture in the international competition?A. They had a trip to the Palace Museum.B. They took photos and did a lot of research.C. They made more creative things.D. They made an ancient Chinese palace.()5. Where can we read this passage?A. In a newspaper.B. In a novel.C. In a notice.D. In an advertisement.五六七2019 International Wild Bird Photo CompetitionEvery year, as part of the Bird and Nature Festival, an international photo competition dedicated (献给) to wild bird is organized.

However, many of our animal friends may not be around for much longer.According to the Living Planet Report released by the World Wildlife Fund(WWF)in October, populations of several animals, including mammals(哺乳动物), birds and fish, had fallen by about 60 percent since 1970.As the report said, one of the biggest causes of wildlife loss is human activity. Three quarters of the world’s land has been affected by human activity. Many natural habitats have been destroyed to create farmland.About 300 mammal species(种类)are dying out because humans are over-eating them. Another example is the industrial over-fishing of the oceans, The Guardian noted.The challenge we face is to find ways to meet the needs of our growing population whileprotecting the environment, the WWF said. It has called on world governments and businesses to make efforts together to protect people and nature.The situation in China is not positive, either. According to a report by China Daily in November, Chinese paddlefish (白鲟) may be dying out. And there are now less than 500 green peafowl (孔雀) in the wild, CCTV reported in June.To protect endangered animals, measures have been taken in China and progress has been made. For example, China has banned(禁止)the use of rhino horn (犀牛角) and tiger bones, as well as banned ivory trading, China Daily reported. It has also held some activities to increase public awareness(意识).()1. What do we know from the Living Planet Report?A. Animals are destroying natural habitats.B. The human population is increasing.C. Many animal species are dying out.D. Humans and animals are equal in terms of their population.()2. According to the passage, what leads to wildlife loss?①creating farmland①over-eating of mammals①air pollution①industrial over-fishingA. ①①①B. ①①①C. ①①①D. ①①①()3. The underlined word “It” in Paragraph 5 is about ____.A. the governmentB. the populationC. the environmentD. the challenge()4. The Chinese meaning of “positive” in Paragraph 6 is____.A. 乐观的B. 积极的C. 严峻的D. 糟糕的()5. Paragraph 7 was written to show ____.A. which animal species are endangered in ChinaB. how Chinese people deal with environmental problemsC. how to increase public awareness to protect animalsD. what efforts China has made to protect endangered animals十If you skip a meal, do you ever notice yourself starting to get angry or annoyed very easily? Well, this is often known as being “hangry” or being angry because you are very hungry.But as it turns out, it's not just a funny phrase, but it is scientifically true! Scientists found this feeling of anger usually comes from having low glucose(葡萄糖)levels in the blood. Glucose is put into the body after you eat.The brain also needs this to work correctly. When the body is low in glucose, the brain sends hormones(激素)to increase the amount of glucose in the body. Brenda Bustillos, a dietitian (营养学家) at Texas A & M University, the US, said, “Hunger leads to high stress hormones, which makes it hard to control our emotions.”The brain even starts to feel like you are dealing with a life-threatening(威胁生命的)situation if you don't get enough glucose. Another problem is that the brain will also use neuropeptide (神经肽) to send a message saying you should eat. But this is the same chemical that manages anger.Amanda Salis, PhD, University of Sydney, says that we may also be able to thank our ancestors for our hanger. Salis says that long ago when there was not much food, people had to be aggressive to eat as much as they could to get enough food to live. So even now when most people have enough food to eat, there is still that aggressive feeling toward needing food.()1. If you are“hangry”, you ____.A. get hungry because you are angryB. get hungry easily when you are tiredC. get angry because you are hungryD. get angry easily when you are tired()2. According to the scientists, the feeling of anger usually results from ____.A. low glucose levelsB. high blood pressureC. low hormonesD. controllable emotions()3. The underlined word “aggressive” in Paragraph 5 means ___.A. 爱吵闹的B. 有闯劲的C. 善战的D. 有见地的()4. From the passage, we can learn that neuropeptide ____.A. is a chemical that sends a message saying we are fullB. is a stress hormone that controls our emotionsC. is a chemical that helps us deal with hard situationsD. is a chemical that manages our anger()5. The passage is mainly talking about ____.A. the reasons for being angryB. the results of staying hungryC. the ways to control our emotionsD. the relationship between anger and hunger十一十二十三For a long time, a couple of Chinese parents were allowed to have only one child in order to control China's population. However, after China's two-child policy came out, the number of newly-born babies didn't rise rapidly as some experts expected.The same situation does not happen only in China, but also in other countries. There has been a remarkable global decline in the number of children women are having, according to a study published in The Lancet. The study looked at birth trends in several countries from 1950 to 2017.In 1950, women had an average of 4.7 children in their lifetime. The number was 2.4 children per woman in 2017. The researchers said that the findings were a “huge surprise”. This means that nearly half of the countries they looked at are now facing a “baby bust (婴儿荒)”. There are not enough children to maintain (保持) the countries’ population size, according to a report published by the BBC.“As women have gotten more educated and participated more in the workplace, many women prefer to have fewer children. So there is no surprise that fertility has come down tremendously (非常地),” said study author Christopher Murray. “And it comes down faster in younger women.”Getting married later in life is another factor. “The age at which women are getting married is increasing,” James Kiarie, coordinator for the World Health Organization, told CNN.()1. Before the two-child policy, a couple of Chinese parents were allowed to have ____.A. one childB. two childrenC. three childrenD. four children()2. According to The Lancet, the study shows that ____.A. more women prefer to have fewer childrenB. more women don’t want to get marriedC. more women decide to give up workingD. more women want to make lots of money()3. Which of the following is NOT a reason for the “baby bust”?A. Women get more educated.B. Women prefer to get married later.C. Women want to have more free time.D. Women participate more in the workplace.()4. The underlined word “fertility” probably means ____ in Chinese.A. 失业率B. 离婚率C. 犯罪率D. 生育率()5. What's the main idea of the passage?A. China has a new policy.B. Many countries face the “baby bust”.C. There is a remarkable decline in the world's population.D. A magazine published a study on the world's population.十四When throwing away waste, do you know which bin it should go in? Have you ever noticed the differently-colored bins on the street? Some of you might not be able to answer these questions. However, it's actually quite important to know how to sort (将……分类) your waste.If you don't sort your waste, all of it will go to a landfill (垃圾填埋场) and be buried together. These landfills can take up large areas of ground that could have been used for planting trees or crops. The electronic waste you throw away, such as batteries (电池), can pollute the soil and groundwater. Other waste, like the metal part of a pen, can be used to make other things if they are properly recycled.With this in mind, many cities in China have been running waste-sorting activities. For example, Shanghai announced in July that within three years, all the people in Shanghai should sort their waste into four groups: wet, recyclable, harmful and dry.Wet waste is also known as household waste. They are things that you don't want but pigs can eat. Paper, metal, glass and other things that can be reused are recyclable waste. Harmful waste includes things like medicine and batteries. Finally, any waste that's not wet, recyclable or harmful will go into the “dry waste” bin.Many other Chinese cities plan to use this method too. Now that you know this, perhaps you can do your part to protect the environment and encourage others to sort their waste.()1. The underlined word “buried” probably means ____ in Chinese.A. 掩埋B. 焚烧C. 分拣D. 清洗()2. What will probably happen if we don’t sort our waste according to the passage?①Some waste will hurt animals.①It will waste some useful things.①Some waste will pollute the soil and groundwater.①It will waste areas of ground to deal with the waste.A. ①①①B. ①①①C. ①①①D. ①①①①()3. From the passage we know wet waste refers to the things ____.A. that can be reusedB. that are sent to a landfillC. that we don't want but pigs can eatD. that are harmful to the environment()4. Recyclable waste includes the following things EXCEPT ____.A. paperB. metalC. glassD. medicine()5. What does the author mainly want to tell us?A. We should avoid wasting things.B. We should learn to sort our waste.C. We should protect groundwater.D. We should support waste-sorting activities.答案一CAADB二DCDAB三ABBAC四CBBDA五FEDAB六BCEFA七CDBDC八BCCBA九CBDAD十CABDD十一DBEGA十二DCFEG十三AACDB十四ACCDB21。

2023广东版英语中考复习题--专题十七阅读选择2023 广东版英语中考专题十七阅读选择五年中考分类训练一记叙文Passage 1 (2023 广东,B)Jerry is a world-famous mountain climber. He has climbed many high mountains in the world. Starting in 2023, he and his friends spent two years on an adventure (探险) in South America, covering 7,800 miles. He was even named Adventurer of the Year by a famous geography magazine in 2023. Although Jerry had achieved great success, he didn“t feel fulfilled. He asked himself, “Is it enough to climb the highest mountains? Am I doing something helpful? How can I turn my adventures into something that can help the world?” Jerry learned that scientists need plants, rocks and water samples(样本) from places far away to do research. But scientists can“t get there themselves as such places are hard to reachonly the bravest adventurers can make it. Jerry thought hecould do something to help. He then came up with an idea. He set up a team of top adventurers to collect samples for scientists. By studying the samples, scientists could know more about the earth and find ways to protect it. Recently Jerry and his adventurer friends have discovered a special plant life on Mount Qomolangma. The samples they brought back have helped scientists learn how plants live in extreme (极端的) conditions. For Jerry, this kind of adventure is most satisfying. “Such adventures have made us see life in a different way. Now, being the best climber isn“t important for me. What matters is doing something helpful while climbing mountains. There is still much more we can do,” Jerry said to a newspaper. 1.What is Paragraph 1 mainly about?

广东中考英语阅读理解习题及答案During all this time I never stopped thinking about escape. When Itraveled across to the other side of the island, I could see the other islands, and I said to myself, “Perhaps I can get there with a boat. Perhaps I can get back to England one day.”So I decided to make myself a boat. I cut down a big tree, and then beganto make a long hole in it. It was hard work, but about six months later, I had a very fine canoe 独木舟. Next, I had to get it down to the sea. How silly I was! Why didn't I think before I began work? Of course, the canoe was too heavy. I couldn't move it! I pulled and pushed and tried everything, but itdidn't move. I was very unhappy for a long time after that.That happened in my fourth year on the island. In my sixth year I did make myself a smaller canoe, but I did not try to escape in it. The boat was too small for a long journey, and I did not want to die at sea. The island was my home now, not my prison, and I was just happy to be alive. A year or two later, I made myself a second canoe on the other side of the island. I also built myself a second house there, and so I had two homes.My life was still busy from mo rning to night. There were always things to do or to make. I learnt to make new clothes for myself from the skins of dead animals. They looked very strange, it is true, but they kept me dry in the rain.I kept food and tools at both my houses, and also wild goats. There were many goats on the island, and I made fields with high fences to keep them in. They learnt to take food from me, and soon I had goats' milk to drink every day. I also worked hard in my corn 玉米 fields. And so many years went by.1.
