初中英语阅读理解训练及参考答案（通用9篇）中考英语阅读理解及解析篇一Advertisers Perform a Useful Service to the CommunityAdvertisers tend to think big and perhaps this is why they’re always coming in for criticism. Their critics seem to resent them because they have a flair for self-promotion and because they have so much money to throw around. ‘It’s iniquitous,’ they say, ‘that this entirely unproductive industry (if we can call it that) should absorb millions of pounds each year. It only goes to show how much profit the big companies are making. Why don’t they stop advertising and reduce the price of their goods? After all, it’s the consumer who pays…’The poor old consumer! He’d have to pay a great deal more if advertising didn’t create mass markets for products. It is precisely because of the heavy advertising that consumer goods are so cheap. But we get the wrong idea if we think the only purpose of advertising is to sell goods. Another equally important function is to inform. A great deal of the knowledge we have about household goods derives largely from the advertisements we read. Advertisements introduce us to new products or remind us of the existence of ones we already know about. Supposing you wanted to buy a washing machine, it is more than likely you would obtain details regarding performance, price, etc., from an advertisement.Lots of people pretend that they never read advertisements, but this claim may be seriously doubted. It is hardly possible not to read advertisements these days. And what fun they often are, too! Just think what a railway station or a newspaper would be like without advertisements. Would you enjoy gazing at a blank wall or reading railway byelaws while waiting for a train? Would you like to read only closely printed columns of news in your daily paper? A cheerful, witty advertisement makes such a difference to a drab wall or a newspaper full of the daily ration of calamities.We must not forget, either, that advertising makes a positive contribution to our pockets. Newspapers, commercial radio and television companies could not subsist without this source of revenue. The fact that we pay so little for our daily paper, or can enjoy so many broadcast programmes is due entirely to the money spent by advertisers. Just think what a newspaper would cost if we had to pay its full price!Another thing we mustn’t forget is the ‘small ads.’ which are in virtually every newspaper and magazine. What a tremendously useful service they perform for the community! Just about anything can be accomplished through these columns. For instance, you can find a job, buy or sell a house, announce a birth, marriage or death in what used to be called the ‘hatch, match and dispatch’ column but by far the most fascinating section is the personal or ‘agony’ column. No other item in a newspaper provides such entertaining reading or offers such a deep insight into human nature. It’s the best advertisement for advertising there is!1. What is main idea of this passage?A. Advertisement.B. The benefits of advertisement.C. Advertisers perform a useful service to communities.D. The costs of advertisement.2. The attitude of the author toward advertisers isA. appreciative.B. trustworthy.C. critical.D. dissatisfactory.3. Why do the critics criticize advertisers?A. Because advertisers often brag.B. Because critics think advertisement is a “waste of money”。

一、中考英语阅读理解汇编1．阅读理解Parents can be very important teachers in our lives. However, they are not always the best teachers. Parents may be too close to their children emotionally（情感上）. Sometimes they can only see their children through the eyes of a protector. For example, a teacher might see a trip to a big city as a valuable experience. However, it might seem too dangerous to a parent.Another problem is that parents may expect their children's interests to be similar to their own.If they love science, they may try to force（强迫） their child to love science, too. But what if their child's true love is art writing, or car repair?Parents usually want to pass on their values to their children. But should children always believe what their parents do? When children are young, they believe that their parents are always right. But when they get older, they will have different ways of thinking.The most important thing to realize is that we all have many teachers in our lives. Our parents teach us, our teachers teach us, and our friends teach us. Books, newspapers and television also teach us. All of them are valuable.（1）________might see a trip to a big city as a valuable experience, according to the passage.A. A parent.B. Either a teacher or a parent.C. A teacher.D. Neither a teacher nor a parent.（2）The underlined phrase "pass on" in the 3rd paragraph means________.A. 路过B. 继承C. 传递D. 领悟（3）When children get older, they________.A. don't believe their parents any moreB. should always believe what their parents doC. believe that their parents are always rightD. begin to have their own ways of thinking（4）What is the best title of the passage?A. Never grow upB. Believe your parents foreverC. Are parents always the best teachers?D. How many teachers can we have in our lives【答案】（1）C（2）C（3）D（4）C【解析】【分析】文章大意：本文主要讲述了作者很高兴与父母的关系很好，同时讲述了父母是孩子生活中最重要的老师。

重庆市中考英语英语阅读理解试题（附答案）一、英语阅读理解专项练习试卷1.阅读理解As a young woman，my mother worked in the kitchen of a large farm owned by Fanny Cratty. She was hardworking and had a special skill in making delicious strawberry jam.Aunt Fanny was single and had no children. She didn't like to share love with others. I thought she was very lonely，although she didn't mind it. She had a workshop where my mother helped her make the best strawberry jam，and everyone in our town bought it. But aunt Fanny asked my mother not to tell the recipe（秘方）of making the strawberry jam to others.When the strawberries were ripe，my family would pick them together. We talked and laughed，experiencing the fun of picking strawberries. But aunt Fanny never joined us. She just asked us to pick strawberries quickly and make more strawberry jam to make more money for her. Each person in our town said that she just paid attention to money rather than anything else. What a poor woman! It's no use having too much money because she had no family and friends to share her happiness during her lifetime. Maybe it was the recipe that brought success to aunt Fanny. But to me，it was just a common recipe. Money can make you feel rich for a while，but it is the beautiful days spent with family and friends that truly make you rich.（1）Who owns the recipe of making the best strawberry jam?A.

No. 1 中考英语阅读理解·“老”字趣谈每个国家都有各自的文化习惯;而这种文化上的差异往往会引起一定的误会;不过只要熟悉对方的风俗习惯做到入乡随俗;一切就OK啦When my family moved to America in 2010 from a small village in Guangdong; China; we brought not only our luggage; but also our village rules; customs and culture. One of the rules is that young people should always respect尊敬elders. Unluckily; this rule led to my very first embarrassment in the United States.I had a part-time job as a waiter in a Chinese restaurant. One time; when I was serving food to a middle-aged couple; the wife asked me how the food could be served so quickly. I told her that I had made sure they got their food quickly because I always respect the elderly. As soon as I said that; her face showed great displeasure. My manager; who happened to hear what I said; took me aside and gave me a long lecture about how sensitive敏感Americans are and how they dislike the description “old”. I then walked back to the table and apologized to the wife. After the couple heard my reason; they understood that the problem was caused by cultural differences; so they laughed and were no longer angry.In my village in China; people are proud of being old. Not so many people live to be seventy or eighty; and people who reach such an age have the most knowledge and experience. Young people always respect older people because they know they can learn from their rich experience. However; in the United States; people think “growing old” is a problem since “old” shows that a person is going to retire or that the body is not working well. Here many people try to keep themselves away from growing old by doing exercises or jogging; and women put on makeup; hoping to look young. When I told the couple in the restaurant that I respect the elderly; they got angry because this caused them to feel they had failed to stay young. I had told them something they didn’t want to hear.After that; I changed the way I had been with older people. It is not that I don’t respect them any more; I still respect them; but now I don’t show my feelings through words.By Jack1.

中考英语阅读理解真题及答案（1）Edward rose early on the New-year morning. He looked in every room and wished a Happy New Year to his family. Then he ran into the street to repeat that to those he might meet.When he came back, his father gave him two bright, new silver dollars.His face lighted up as he took them. He had wished for a long time to buy some pretty books that he had seen at the bookstore.He left the house with a light heart, expecting to buy the books. As he ran down the street, he saw a poor family.“I wish you a Happy New Year.” said Edward, as he was passing on. The man shook his head.“You are not from this country.” said Edward. The man again shook his head, for he could not understand or speak his language. But he pointed to his mouth and to the children shaking with cold, as if (好像) to say, “These little ones have had nothing to eat for a long time.”Edward quickly understood that these poor people were in trouble. He took out his dollars and gave one to the man, and the other to his wife.They were excited and said something in their language, which doubtless meant, “We thank you so much that we will remember you all the time.”When Edward came home, his father asked what books he had bought. He hung his head a moment, but quickly looked up.“I have bought no books”, said he. “I gave my money to some poor people, who seemed to be very hungry then.” He went on, “I think I can wait for my books till next New Year.”“My dear boy,” said his father, “here are some books for you, mor e as a prize for your goodness of heart than as a New-year gift”“I saw you give the money cheerfully to the poor German family. It was nice for a little boy to do so. Be always ready to help others and every year of your life will be to you a Happy New Year.”48.

The weather is getting hotter. You are thirsty playing basketball or riding home from school. A cold drink may be just the thing. But be careful what you are drinking. 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. Scientists say that teenagers should be discouraged from taking drinks with a lot of caffeine in them.（）6.

Which of the following can be the best title（标题）of the passage?A. What's the Use of Energy Drinks?B. Who Can Drink Energy DrinksC. What's That in Energy Drinks?D. Why Can't We Buy Energy Drinks?As a child, I was really afraid of the dark and of getting lost. These fears were very real and caused me some uncomfortable moments.Maybe it was the strange way things looked and sounded in my own room at night that scared me so much. There was never complete darkness, but always a streetlight or passingcar lights, which made clothes on the back of a chair take on the shape of a wild animal. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw the curtains（窗帘）seem to move when there was no wind. A very low sound in the floor would seem a hundred times louder than in the day. My imagination （想象）would run wild, and my heart would beat fast. I would lie very still so that the "enemy（敌人）" would not discover me.Another of my childhood fears was that I would get lost, especially on the way home from school. Every morning I got on the school bus right near my home. That was no problem. After school, though, when all the buses were lined up along the street, I was afraid that I would get in the wrong one and be taken to some other strange places. On school or family trips to a park or a museum, I wouldn't let the leaders out of my sight.Perhaps one of the worst fears of all I had as a child was that of not being liked or accepted by others. Being popular was so important to me then, and the fear of not being liked was a serious one.One of the processes（过程）growing up is being able to realize and overcome our fears. Understanding the things that scared us as children helps us achieve greater success later in life. （）11.

But what is health? “Health” means eating well, getting enough exercise, and having a healthy weight. Let’s read the following rules. They can help you stay healthy.（1）. Eat a variety of food, especially fruit and vegetables. We all know that eating fruit and vegetables can help us stay healthy, but many of us only eat our favorite food. Remember that we can only get the nutrition （营养）we need by eating different kinds of food, especially fruit andvegetables.（2）. Drink water and milk most often. Everyone knows that water is important. Besides that, kids need plenty of calcium （钙）to grow strong bones, and milk is rich in it. Every day, you should drink at least three cups of milk, when you are 9 years old or older. You should also try to have less sugary drinks, like soda and coca. They include a lot of sugar. Sugar only includes calories （热量）, not important nutrition.（3）. Listen to your body. When you are eating, notice how your body feels. When your stomach feels comfortably full, stop eating. Eating too much makes you feel uncomfortable. If you do it too often, it can make you unhealthy and fat.（4）. Limit screen time. What’s screen time? It’s the amount of time you spend watching TV, movies and playing computer games. The more time you spend on these sitting-down activities, the less time you spend playing sports, like basketball, and doing other activities like riding and swimming. Try to spend no more than 2 hours a day on screen time.（）6.

His shirt was really a fashionable colour.”But of course there are fashions in many things, not only in clothes. There are fashions in holidays, in restaurants, in films and books. There are even fashions in school subjects, jobs…and in languages.Fashions change as time goes.

A group of Americans who taught English in other countries recently discussed their experiences.

They answered with many different nods and shakes of the head. He thought some people had not understood, so he explained again. When he asked again, they did the same thing~ He soon found out that his students did understand. In India, people nod and shake their heads in different ways depending on where they come from.

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 bookusing 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.
