2021年中考英语二轮复习：阅读理解重难点题型专项练习题11.I've thought long and hard about how Chinese parents can get away with what they do. I think there are three big differences between the Chinese and Western parental mind-sets.First, I've noticed that Western parents are quite worried about their children's self-esteem（自尊心）. In other words, Western parents care about their children's psyches（心灵）. Chinese parents don't. They find that they are strong, not frail（脆弱的）, and as a result they behave very differently.Second, Chinese parents believe that their kids should thank them for everything. The reason for this is a little unclear, but maybe it's because of Chinese traditional customs and the fact that the parents have done so much for their children.Third, Chinese parents believe that they know what is best for their children. So they don't care about their children.Don't get me wrong: It's not that Chinese parents don't care about their children. Just the opposite. They would give up anything for their children. It's just an entirely different parenting model（养育模式）．（1）According to the passage, how many differences between Chinese parents and Western parents?A.Only one.B.Two.C.Three.D.Four.（2）What do Western parents worry about their children?A.Self-esteem.B.Psyches.C.Grades.D.Both A and B.（3）Do Chinese parents care about their children's psyches?A.Yes, they do.B.No, they don't.C.Not clearly.D.Not mentioned.（4）What does the underlined word "custom" in Paragraph 3 mean in Chinese?A.进步B.模版C.习俗D.设计（5）Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A.Western parents are quite worried about their children's self-esteem.B.Chinese parents believe that their kids should thank them for everything.C.Chinese parents believe that they don't know what is best for their children.D.Chinese parents would give up anything for their children.2.CRAZY BUBBLE RUNThe happiest family activity Ever!Time: 10 a. m.Date: November 3rdA Money-Raising Event for the City Charity ProgramOrganized by United Nations Children's Fund（联合国儿童基金会）★ Come and get your Bubble Run Bag（T-shirt, number plate, hair band, waterproof（防水的）bag, color stickers and water gun）at 9:30 a. m.!★ We will be waiting for you at the Olympic Park in Beijing!★ Registration Fees: ￥120 Student（1）When will the Crazy Bubble Run event begin?A.At 9:30 a. m. on October Ist.B.At 10 a. m. on October IstC.At 9:30 a. m. on November Ist.D.At 10 a. m. on November 3rd.（2）Who started this running event?A.United Nations Children's Fund.B.Beijing Municipal Government.C.City Charity Program.D.The Olympic Park.（3）The participants（参与者）can't get ________ in their Bubble Run Bags.A.sunglassesB.waterproof bagC.hair bandD.T-shirt（4）The 16-year-old twin sisters, Alice and Ann are both high school students.

The boy standing next to him was tall, with a friendly face. I noticed Adam and Chen give each other the thumbs up. That meant they were going to invite him to join the cool group. They smiled at himand he smiled back.Mr Turner always gave new students a buddy with the same hobbies as them.I was sure he wouldn't choose me. I wasn't one of the cool kids."Hyun, I want you to be John's buddy this term," said Mr Turner. Me? I couldn't believe my ears! Everyone in the class looked in my direction. Adam and Chen even looked unhappy.John walked over to my desk and sat down beside me. He smiled at me. "Hello," he said in a confident voice."Hello," I replied, not looking at him.All morning I could feel the boys in the cool group looking angrily at me, but John didn't seem to notice.Finally the bell rang for a break. I had butterflies in my stomach. I knew that Adam and Chen were going to make fun of me in front of John, and that John would decide that he'd rather be buddies with them.Sure enough, as soon as we got outside, Adam and Chen swaggered up to us."Mr Turner says you're a good basketball player, John," said Adam. "How'd you like to play with us at lunch break? Hyun doesn't know anything about basketball.""No thanks," said John. "I'd rather play chess with Hyun, if he doesn't mind. Mr Turner says he's an excellent player."I was walking on air as John and I crossed the playground. I remembered the saying we learnt in class about not judging a book by its cover.

Most of them are widely used in our everyday life. Different maps have different uses. When we are in a new place, a proper map may help us solve the problems easily.Tourist maps, for example, have signs to show places of interest in an area. When tourists read these maps, it is easy for them to find where to go and what to see in a place and it is easy for them to go and find their ways to these places.Road maps show large areas so that people can plan long journeys. Different types of roads are given different numbers. For example, if you want to go to Wood Green, you just follow No.621 Road and keep looking at the road signs.Distribution maps（分布图）use colors or signs to show facts about an area. For example, where different languages are spoken, how many people live in an area, how cold and hot some places are, or whether a place is short of water.Some maps, such as railway maps, use straight lines to show everything. It is easy for people to read them. Trains are fast. People don't have to think about small places they go past. They just need to know the two ends of their trips.（1） How can you tell different roads on road maps?A.By using different colors.B.By finding the numbers.C.By following No. 621 Road.D.By looking at the road signs.（2）Jim is going to Beijing Zoo.

How about the teenagers in big cities? Here is a survey. We asked 4,000 teenagers in China several questions. Half of them come from big cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. The others are from small villages. We made a diagram of the result of our survey. Let's have a look at it. We found out that teenagers from small villages do more chores than those from big cities. Maybe it is because they live a harder life. Our advice to parents in big cities is that parents should give their children some chores to do. Doing chores teaches teenagers to take care of themselves.（1）They surveyed ________ teenagers from small villages.A.1,000B.2,000C.3,000D.4,000（2）There are 1,000 teenagers from the cities who ________.A.take out the trashB.do the dishesC.make the bedD.fold the clothes（3）Fewer than ________ teenagers in big cities sweep the floor and make the bed.A.500B.1,000C.1,500D.2,000（4）The number of teenagers ________ in big cities is bigger than that in small villages.A.making the bedB.taking out the trashC.folding the clothesD.doing the dishes（5）Why did they make the survey?A.Because they don't want teenagers in China to do chores at home.B.Because they thought it'll help teenagers to take good care of themselves to do chores at home.C.Because they wanted to know if teenagers in China do chores at home.D.Because they thought it's not necessary for teenagers to look after themselves.6.Starting on June 20, the e-ticket system will be used on rail lines running at normal speed, with over 1,300 train stations. Chinese passengers will completely say goodbye to paper tickets. Before that, the e-ticket system was only used on high-speed and intercity（城际的）railways.In China, normal-speed trains play an important role in railway transport and also serve as an important choice for passengers. They provide over one-thirdof all railway passengers with trips every year.The e-ticket service first started on the high-speed rail line of Hainan Province in November 2018, and another four high-speed intercity railways were tested in July 2019.After being used on most of the high-speed lines across the country during the fourth quarter last year, the system achieved full coverage on all high-speed and intercity railways in late April.Passengers using the e-ticket system will be able to enter the station and check in with their ID cards and facial recognition（人脸识别）without a paper ticket. The system will also reduce waiting time and there won't be any risk of losing tickets. Also, the time of ticket-checking will be shortened from 3.8 seconds per person to 1.3 seconds."It seems to save only a few seconds for a single passenger. But with the large number of people taking trains, it will greatly ease（舒缓）the rail system,"a professor at Beijing Jiaotong University said.（1）On June 20 this year, the e-ticket system began to be used on________.A.high-speed railwaysB.intercity railwaysC.normal-speed railwaysD.countryside railways（2）What does the underlined word "transport" mean?A.Traffic.B.Center.C.Line.D.Price.（3）Which doesn't belong to the advantages of e-ticket system?A.Passengers don't need to buy paper tickets.B.It's not necessary to carry ID cards.C.Passengers can spend less time waiting.D.Tickets will not be lost.（4）Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.People in Hainan Province could buy e-tickets in 2019.B.E-tickets were used in all high-speed and intercity railways in July 2019.C.Passengers can save 1.3 seconds in checking time if they use e-tickets.D.More and more people will take normal-speed trains in the future.（5）What may be the best title for the passage?A.The Future of Railway TransportB.New Technology in 2020C.An Introduction to Chinese TrainsD.Goodbye, Paper Tickets7.A man who was climbing a mountain thought he was all alone. But suddenly, he was hit by a falling rock and then, a woman climber fell from above, landing right on him. They were both injured badly. His leg was broken. The woman had broken her arm and couldn't climb. What were they going to do?It was very cold and night was coming. They both knew they wouldn't live through the night if they didn't make it down the mountain.The woman had an idea and said, "I have two good legs, and you have two good arms. Together, that makes one healthy body."They tried themselves together so that he was on her back. Slowly, they climbed down, bit by bit. Every step was difficult. They had to stop every minute or so, but he was counting on（指望）her strong legs and she was counting on the strength（力量）in his arms to keep them from falling. When they finally reached the foot of the mountain hours later, they were found and rushed to the hospital.They both learned a good lesson that day. A good team isn't made up of people who can all do the same thing. It must be made up of people who can provide many different skills.Sometimes in life, we must depend on another person's strengths to make upfor（弥补）our weaknesses.（1）What happened when the man was climbing the mountain?A.He broke his leg.B.He hit a woman climber.C.He broke his arm.D.He fell down onto a rock.（2）When climbing down the mountain, the man and the woman________.A.rushed to the foot of the mountainB.stopped many timesC.argued with each otherD.nearly gave up hope（3）What does the passage mainly tell us?A.When we're in trouble, we should have creative ideas.B.We should learn to protect ourselves when we do dangerous sports.C.We should learn from each other when we're in trouble.D.We should offer our skills to overcome common difficulties.8.The four students are talking about their problems in their life. Let's have a look.Michael: When I was a student in France, a local friend invited me to have lunch at her home. During the meal, I found all her family had their hands on the table, except me. Later I learned that it's impolite to put your hands under the table.Adam: When I was a student in the UK, I went to a pub（酒吧）with two local friends. We all had a drink and I drank mine quickly. My friends still had half-full glasses so I bought another drink, just for myself. My friends said, "You can't do that. When in a pub in the UK, you should buy drinks for you and your friends." I was so embarrassed.Sandra: I spent a year studying in Germany. I was shocked the first time I went to a speech. At the end of the speech, all the students started knocking on their desks. How strange! A student told me that in Germany, students don't claptheir hands to show they like something. They knock on their desks instead.Zoe: I love making birthday cards. One day, when I was a student in South Korea, I made a birthday card for a local friend. But when I gave the card to her, she cried, "My name is written in red ink!"

During the next three days, the one that carved（雕刻）the more lovely mouse would be the Best National Carpenter.The two carpenters worked hard day and night. Three days later, they showed the king their carved mice. The king asked all his soldiers to decide the result. Andy's mouse was so wonderful that it looked like a real one while John's was ugly（难看的）. So the king and his soldiers all agreed Andy was the winner. But John disagreed. He shouted, "That's unfair. It should be decided bycats." The king thought it was right, so he asked his soldiers to bring several cats. To everyone's surprise, the cats all jumped on John's mouse. Then the king said John was the final winner. Later, the king asked John, "How did you make the cats all like your mouse?" John said, "It's very simple. I carved the mouse only with a fishbone（鱼骨）. What the cats care about is not its shape, but its taste."（1）It took the two carpenters ________ to finish carving their mice.A.one dayB.two daysC.three daysD.four days（2）According to the passage, we can learn that ________ mouse looked like a real one.A.John'sB.Andy'sC.the king'sD.a soldier's（3）When John heard Andy was the winner, he thought it was ________.A.fantasticB.interestingC.unfairD.boring（4）John's mouse was carved with ________.A.a fishboneB.a piece of woodC.stoneD.several fish（5）John was the final winner because ________.A.his friends helped himB.he gave some money to the soldiersC.he had greater skillsD.he came up with a good idea10.Little Tom is only seven years old.

Dear Alan,Guess what? I have a chance to choose my new place to live! I'm excited and a little nervous. Could you please give me some help?I'm not sure whether I should live in a house or in an apartment. On one hand, a house will be too big for just one person, so maybe I should rent an apartment. On the other hand, if I rent a house, I could find someone else to share with me. The only problem is that a house full of people might be too noisy for me. I prefer to have my own space. The city has some nice apartments, but they are also too expensive. However, if I could find a two-bedroom apartment and get a roommate, that would make it more affordable. I just need to search for a roommatewho is neat and quiet. You know I can't live with someone who is loud and messy. I don't have a car, so I also need to think carefully about the location. I probably need to look for somewherenear a bus stop or an underground station.

My challenge for you is this: to read a book for 15 minutes a day. Let me explain where the challenge came from.I have many things in common with my dad, like music taste and sense of humor, but sadly reading isn't one of them. I can happily spend a whole day reading a book. ________ He reads e-mails, websites and papers for work, but not books. He is a busy person, with a short attention span, so I think that sitting down to read for just 15 minutes a day is a good way to introduce him to reading. Giving yourself a goal or challenge is a good way to change a habit or achieve something, so why not try to develop a new habit of reading?________ Everyone is different and has their own interests, but I think there are lots of benefits of reading, which screen-based activities (games, films,TV) don't have.________ Looking at screens can cause tire eyes, and you should avoid looking at screens for a long time.Another thing I love about reading is being transported to another world. ________ So you go to bed. Because you think more about the world of the book, rather than the real world and the problems you have during the day, so you can truly relax.I also love people. I enjoy hearing what people are doing and finding out what people think.________ It also teaches me to see things from other people's point of view, and understand other people's decisions or opinions.So give it a try! Include 15 minutes of reading in your daily schedule and see the difference you can make.A. Firstly, it's better for your eyes.B. But my dad can't read a book for longer than 5 minutes.C. I often forget the time or things that are going on around me.D. Reading ten thousand books is like travelling ten thousand miles.E.

中考英语英语阅读理解练习题(及答案)100一、英语阅读理解专项练习试卷1．阅读理解Old age may not sound exciting. But recent findings offer good news for older people and for people worried about getting older. Researchers found that people become happier and experience less worry after they reach the age of 50.In fact, they say by the age of 85, people are happier with their life than they were when they were 18 years old.The findings came from a survey of more than 340, 000 adults in the United States. The Gallup Organization questioned them by telephone. At that time, the people were between the ages of 18 and 85.The researchers asked questions about emotions, like happiness, sadness and worry. They also asked about mental（气质） or emotional stress.Arthur Stone in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Science at Stony Brook University in New York led the study. His team found that levels of stress were highest among adults between the ages of 24 and 25.The findings showed that stress levels dropped sharply after people reached their fifties.The study also showed that men and women have similar feeling patterns as they grow older. However, women at all ages reported more sadness, stress and worry than men.Researchers say they do not know why happiness increases as people get older. One theory is that, as people grow older, they grow more thankful for what they have and have better control of their feelings. So they spend less time thinking about bad experiences.Professor Stone says the emotional patterns could be connected with changes in how people see the world, or maybe even changes in brain chemistry.The researchers also considered possible influences like having young children, being unemployed（被解雇） or being single. But they found that influences like these did not affect （影响） the levels of happiness.（1）Who would probably show the greatest interest in the passage?A. Those who are worried about getting old.B. Those who are single and unemployed.C. Those who feel unhappy all the time.D. Those who suffer from mental stress.（2）When may people have the highest level of stress?A. At the age of 20.B. At the age of 25.C. At the age of 35.D. At the age of 40.（3）According to Arthur Stone's idea, old people may .A. control their behaviors betterB. know how to spend money wiselyC. dream about good things every dayD. have a positive attitude towards their life（4）What would be the best title for this passage?A. The Younger, the HappierB. The Young Are Happier than the OldC. Getting Older Means Getting HappierD. Women Are Easier to Be Happy in Life【答案】（1）A（2）B（3）D（4）C【解析】【分析】文章大意：重点介绍的是老年人的幸福感问题，作者通过一个调查研究告诉我们随着年龄的增长，人们的幸福感会越来越强。
