阅读理解-推理判断题【错题回顾】错题一．Are You Right Handed or Left Handed?Which hand do you use when write? About 8 to 15 percent of people are left handed. They often have to use tools that are designed for right-handed people. So it is difficult for left-handers to use most tools. If you are right handed, try this experiment: Take a knife with your left hand and try cutting a potato into pieces. Don’t be surprised if you feel awkward（别扭的）.In the past, people thought it was strange to use the left hand. Young students looked down upon their left-handed classmates. Some children were even punished for using their left hand to write. But these days parents and teachers have accepted that. In almost every school in the world, left-handed students can use their left hand to write.What causes people to be left handed or right handed? Experts have searched long and hard on this. They conclude（得出结论）that left-handed people are left handed for the same reason that right-handed people are right handed. One out of every ten people just is a left-handed people are right handed. One out of every ten people just is a left-hander. It’s simply like the color of our eyes – some people have brown eyes, while some others have black eyes.However, may researchers think that left-handers and right-handers are different in some aspects. Right-handers are more talkative and outgoing than left-handers. Many right-handed people understand spoken words better. For example, after they listen to directions to a supermarket, they can find it easily. Right-handers are good at organizing people, too. They are also better basketball guards. Just ask Yao Ming.Research shows that left-handers are creative and artistic. Many famous performers, like Jim Carrey and Paul McCartney, are left handed. Many left-handers learn better visually（在视觉方面）. In art, both Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo were left handed. In music, Ludwig van Beethoven was left handed. In science, you find Newton and Einstein. The left-handed people are also really good at tennis and other single sports.If you prefer one hand, but you are still good at writing with the other, you are mixed. Research shows mixed-handers can remember everyday things better than other people. What did you eat for lunch two weeks ago? If you’re mixed handed, you can probably remember.52. From the passage, we can learn that left-handers .A. may be more talkative and outgoingB. are ordinary people like right-handersC. might remember everyday things betterD. no longer need to use right-handed tools学生解答：52. D正确答案：52. B解析：全文并没有明确的信息判断。

2025中考备考初中英语阅读理解人与自我主题语境相关真题精选专项训练AAuggie's StorySleepI'd been reading for over an hour and sleep still didn't come. It was almost two a. m. Everyone else was asleep. I had my flashlight (手电筒) on under the sleeping bag. Maybe the light was why I couldn't sleep, but I was too afraid to turn it off. What had happened kept coming back to my mind.When we got back to the camp, no one noticed we'd been gone. The teachers and all the other kids were still watching the movie. They didn't know how something bad had just happened to me and Jack. It's so strange how that can be, how you could have a night that's the worst in your life, but to everybody else it's just a usual night.Amos, Miles and Henry brought us back to our seats. Then they returned to their own seats. In a way, everything was exactly as we had left it. The sky was the same. The movie was the same. Everyone's faces were the same. Mine was the same.But something was different. Something had changed.Home"So, do you want to hear about the bad part or the good part first?" I asked Mum."Whatever you want to talk about," she answered."Well, except for last night, I had a fantastic time," I said. "I feel like they ruined (毁坏) the whole trip for me." "No, sweetie. Don't let them do that to you. You were there for more than forty-eight hours, and that awful part lasted one hour. Don't let them take that away from you, okay?""I know." I nodded. "But do I always have to worry about bad guys like that? Like when I grow up, is it always going to be like this?""There are always going to be bad guys in the world, Auggie," she said, looking at me. "But I really believe there are more good people on this earth than bad people, and the good people watch out for each other and take care ofeach other. Just like Jack was there for you. And Amos. And those other kids.""Oh yeah, Miles and Henry," I answered. "They were amazing, too. It's very strange because Miles and Henry haven't even really been very nice to me at all during the year.""Sometimes people surprise us," she said, rubbing the top of my head.1.Why couldn't Auggie fall asleep?A.

They were Auggie's best friends.BAs we know, eating vegetables is good for us. Why do some people like them but others don't? A new study has found that other people's likes and dislikes could be a reason. According to the research, people who eat vegetables and show a clear dislike for them can influence others.People may make facial expressions (面部表情) when eating. How does it affect a person watching them? A team of scientists in the UK did a study. They asked more than 200 young women to watch videos of other adults eating broccoli (西兰花). The people in the videos had different expressions while eating. They would smile, seemneutral (neither happy nor sad), or look disgusted.The study found that when people in the videos look disgusted while eating broccoli, people watching them began to like broccoli less. The opposite was not true, however. When someone had a smile while eating broccoli, people watching them did not like broccoli more.By watching others, humans learn which behaviors will be good for them. Scientists believe that people might avoid food that looks terrible. In this way, people can protect themselves from eating something bad or dangerous. The research focused only on adults, but the team believe that the results could also work for children. This means, if children see their parents not enjoying certain foods, including vegetables, they might not want to eat them either.How does the behavior of adults influence children's choices of food? The team said they hope to understand more about it. This could help find ways to encourage children to eat more healthy foods.5.What does the underlined word "disgusted" in paragraph 2 mean?A. Excited.B. Amazed.C. Unhappy.D. Untidy.6.What's the result of the study?A. People may prefer the food others like.B. Children dislike eating certain vegetables.C. Young women are easily affected by others.D. People may not choose the food others dislike.7.The team may do further study on _________.A. the safety of children's foodB. the wish to understand childrenC. the influences of parents' behaviorD. the ways to produce healthy foods8.What is the best title of the text?A. Videos affect choices of foodB. Studies on vegetables help a lotC. Expressions prevent possible dangersD.

As one of the members of a pop group, Gill had lived a busy life but the farmgave him a way to relax.Although farming was new to him, Gill took the challenge and his experiences helpedhim write his book Ace and the Animal Heroes. The story follows Ace, whose lifechanges greatly when he moves to the countryside. After trying on a pair of magicalwellies (长筒靴), Ace realizes he can speak to the animals, who make up their minds toprotect the farm.Gill says that if he had his own pair of magical wellies, he would love to speak to wildlife, especially the wild deer(鹿) that sometimes appear near his farm. As they have no owners, Gill feels like he's sharing their home. "It's really interesting to hear what they're thinking and know where they're at," he said.Gill got his ideas for writing from the animals on his family farm. His children, Ace and Chiara, helped out withhis book. Together, Gill's family made sure that the pictures in the book looked like the animals they'd been based on. He said, "All of those have been really great to piece the whole book together."25.What did Gill decide to do ten years ago?A. Live a busy life.B. Start his own farm.C. Move to the city.D.

According to the United Nations (UN), every year around the world, about one billion (十亿) tons of food is wasted. At the same time, there are nearly one billion people who go hungry. Simply 1/4 of the food wasted is enough to keep them out of hunger. In addition, the wasted food produces over three billion tons of carbon dioxide (CO2), which speeds up climate (气候) change. What can we do to solve this food waste problem?One effective solution is balancing food production with demand (需求). In hotels and other similar places, special instruments should be used so that cooking specialists just prepare and cook food as it is ordered.Another effective solution is starting programs to reduce (减少) food waste. Stores and buyers can try their best to be creative in food waste reduction. For example, stores can provide customers with instructions telling them how to make full use of food. Buyers can try not fixing their eyes only on food of the best quality (质量). Sometimes, the food of non-top quality is also good enough to eat, or can be bought and then used to make delicious dishes.One of the hardest solutions to achieve is for each and every one to buy and prepare food with a plan of their own so that less food is wasted. Challenging as it is, the use of meal plans in preparing food can play an important role in ending food waste in the family.Food recycling is one of the known solutions. Efforts are now already in progress. Food that is not safe for humans to eat is recycled into other products such as animal feeds and clothing. Yet, there is still a long way to go and much for improvement in this area.In a word, food waste has been one of the biggest problems in the world that have influenced us greatly. Many solutions have been found and many more are yet to be worked out. If each of us can put in more efforts, food waste is sure to be reduced for the good of our future.29.According to the passage, what is a possible result of food waste?A. The problem of worldwide hunger.B. A big increase in food production.C. The speed-up of climate change.D. A sudden drop in population.30.What can we learn from the passage?A. Food recycling has been hugely successful.B. Buyers should give up non-top quality food.C. Stores should train people to make delicious dishes.D. Meal plans in the family are hard to put into practice.31.What is the passage mainly about?A. Benefits of reducing food waste.B. Solutions to the food waste problem.C. The importance of fighting food waste.D. The attitude to the food waste problem.IWhen considering the kind of experience that makes life better, most people first think that happiness depends on experiencing pleasure: good food, good jobs, all the comforts that money can buy. If we couldn't have these, we might as well sit in front of the television on a quiet evening.Pleasure is an important part of the quality of life, but by itself it doesn't bring happiness. When people think further about what makes a worthy life, they tend (倾向于) to move beyond pleasant memories and begin to remember other events, other experiences that overlap (有重叠) pleasurable ones but fall into a group with a separate name: enjoyment. Enjoyable events take place when people have not only satisfied a need or met someearlier expectation, but also achieved something unexpected.Enjoyment is characterized by a sense of curiosity, of achievement. Playing a tennis game that improves one's ability is enjoyable, as is reading a book that shows things in a new light, as is having a conversation that leads us to express ideas we didn't know we had. None of these experiences may be especially pleasurable when they are taking place, but when we think back on them afterwards, we would say, "That really was fun" and wish they would happen again. After an enjoyable event we know that we have changed, and grown.Experiences that give pleasure can also give enjoyment, but the two feelings are quite different. For example, everybody takes pleasure in eating. However, to enjoys food is more difficult—you have to pay enough attention to a meal, so as to sense and tell its various tastes. As this example suggests, we can experience pleasure without any psychic energy, while enjoyment happens only as a result of full attention. A person can feel pleasure without any effort, as long as certain parts in his brain are stimulated (刺激). But it's impossible to enjoy a tennis game or a book without full attention. It's for this reason that pleasure does not last long, nor does it make us grow. Growth requires full attention to goals that are new, that are relatively challenging.Without enjoyment, life will go on, and it can even be pleasant. But it depends heavily on luck and the external (外部的) environment. To achieve personal control over the quality of experience, however, we need to learn how to build enjoyment into what happens day in, day out.32.You will most probably experience enjoyment when you ________.A. buy expensive shoesB. order a delicious mealC. talk with friends for new ideasD. sit quietly in front of a television33.What do you know about pleasure and enjoyment from the passage?A. Enjoyment grows out of pleasure.B. Pleasure and enjoyment come hand in hand.C. Pleasurable experiences are part of enjoyable ones.D. Some experiences provide both pleasure and enjoyment.34.The words "psychic energy" in Paragraph 4 are closest in meaning to ________.A. attentionB. interestC. abilityD. knowledge35.The writer probably agrees that ________.A. feeling pleasure stops people from achieving growthB. feeling enjoyment comes with achieving growthC. a worthy life depends on luck and environmentD. pleasure is the key to a happy and worthy lifeJA young man with excellent grades wanted to get a job in a big company，He met the manager for the interview.The manager asked， "Who paid for your education？""My parents."

中考英语阅读理解专项训练（含答案）“Why do I live? Why do I wish for anything, or do anything? Is there anything in my life that will not be destroyed by my death?” Like Leo Tolstoy, the famous Russian writer, many people ask these difficult questions. Tolstoy spent his whole life trying to answer these difficult questions.As a young man, he thought people could achieve perfection if they tried hard enough, so he worked very hard to be the best in everything. He thought that he would find meaning and truth in success.In the 1850s, Tolstoy wrote his first stories. He wrote about his life in the army. He also told stories about his childhood. These works were published, and Tolstoy became a well-known writer.He earned the respect he always wanted. Many rich and smart men met and talked with Tolstoy. Some of them were writers like him. They talked a lot about faith (信仰) and the meaning of life, but soon Tolstoy recognized that these men were not perfect. Now he knew they could not answer his questions about faith.So, in the 1860s, Tolstoy tried a different way to find the meaning of life. He opened a school for the children of his serfs—the people who worked on his land. These workers were very poor. He wanted to help them because he thought they were more honest than the rich people he knew.Tolstoy learned a lot from his workers. He understood how they worked hard to support their families. He began to believe that marriage and family would give his life meaning. So in 1862, Leo Tolstoy married a young woman named Sonya Behrs.The next 15 years were the best years of Tolstoy’s life. It was during this time that he wrote his most famous books-War and Peace and Anna Karenina. Many experts say that War and Peace is one of the greatest books ever written. In these books, Tolstoy believed humans should live a simple life and take care of their families. Tolstoy thought this would satisfy him and bring him happiness.Leo Tolstoy is still a very respected writer today. His faith and writings have influenced many people all over the world.1．Which is the correct order of the following events?①Tolstoy served in the army.①Tolstoy got married.①Tolstoy wrote War and Peace.①Tolstoy opened a school.①Tolstoy became a well-known writer.A．①①①①①B．①①①①①C．①①①①①D．①①①①①2．Why did Tolstoy want to be the best in everything when he was young?A．To prepare for his books.B．To achieve perfection.C．To make a lot of money.D．To show his wisdom.3．Tolstoy thought he would learn a lot from his workers because they were ________.A．poor B．honest C．friendly D．Patient4．Which of the following is TRUE about Tolstoy?A．He wrote books about his childhood and army life.B．He believed the rich people understood his faith.C．He opened a school for the workers on his land.D．His earliest books showed his value for family life.5．What does the passage mainly talk about?A．Leo Tolstoy: Living for writing.B．Leo Tolstoy: Influencing the world.C．Leo Tolstoy: Being the best in everything.D．Leo Tolstoy: Searching for the meaning of life.In ancient times, there was a king who loved flowers. His palace was always decorated with beautiful orchids (兰花) and other flowers. As the king grew older, he knew that one day he would have to give up throne (王位). So he had to find someone to rule the country.The other day, the king had an idea. He asked his servants to travel to every part of the country and give every person a single orchid seed. He then announced that the person who grew the most beautiful orchid would take his throne.Everyone in the country then got their own seed. One young man named David was especially excited about the news because he had experience in growing flowers himself.David planted his seed in a pot and put it in place where there was a lot of sunlight. He watched it carefully every day, but as hard as he tried, his flower simply would not grow.Finally, it was time for everyone to give their flowers to the king.

I like meeting people. I couldn’t keep a secret if you told me and I like discovering new things and telling everyone about them. So I became a journalist(记者).Sounds simple and easy, right? But the life of a journalist is more exciting and much harder than that. It can come with pain and frustration (挫折).Once I ran around in a dark, dangerous-looking street in the snow. I was trying to find a woman who (my editor had told me) “woke in the night to find water pouring on her head”. Somehow I found her. I took photos. I interviewed her, the building owner and the firemen. I wrote the story…Then I opened the paper to find it at the back, with no name on it, only 100 words long. Strangely, though, it made me want to keep going. If you succeed, the rewards of journalism are truly great.I once wrote about an old people’s home. People there, including a 90-year-old blind man, were living in rooms that were full of fleas (跳蚤). They were told to do their own repairs. A week after the story was published, people there phoned me, full of joy. The managers had said sorry to them and promised to change their ways.Journalism can be dangerous and boring, with long and changing work hours. And the pay (at least in the UK) is terrible. But it’s also one of the most exciting, rewarding jobs. For me, there is no better career than making a difference—and telling the world about it.16．According to the writer, what can’t she do being a journalist?A．Writing different kinds of stories.B．Meeting different people. C．Discovering new things.D．Staying away from pain and frustration. 17．According to the third paragraph, how might the writer feel when she saw her story in the paper?A．Disappointed.B．Happy.C．Scared.D．Encouraged. 18．What does the underlined word “rewards” mean in Paragraph 3?A．回报B．惩罚C．编辑D．帮助19．What does the fourth paragraph mainly talk about?A．How a journalist writes a good story.B．A journalist can sometimes help others and bring about changes in people’s lives.C．A journalist works long hours.D．It’s necessary for a journalist to care more about the poor.20．What can we learn from the article?A．Working in journalism is easy.B．Journalists are usually well-paid.C．The writer loves her job as a journalist.D．The writer encourages people to work in journalism.Close your eyes and picture a scientist. Does an image of a man show up in your mind?It is hard to ignore that even in the 21st century, the “scientist equals male” stereotype(成见) is still there. In the science world, women’s voices are often unheard.According to UNESCO, only 35 percent of global STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) students in higher education are women. In pursuing science and technology careers, women are more likely to be treated unfairly because of their motherhood and skin color, noted Teen V ogue.In November, at the 4th World Laureates Forum(世界顶尖科学家论坛) held in Shanghai, some of the world’s top female scientists announced an initiative(倡议), encouraging institutions around the world to promote gender equality(性别平等) in STEM areas.“Role models of women scientists need to be better represented on important international stages and allow their voices to be heard as a way to encourage youths,” Lenore Blum, a female scientist from the US, said at the forum.In December, Talk With Lu Jian, a Chinese TV show, launched a series of programs under the title of She Power in Tech. The show interviewed Chinese female scientists, includinggeneticist(遗传学家) Fu Qiaomei at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Lü Zhi, a professor of life sciences at Peking University, and Rong Yi, a chief designer of the Long March 2F rocket.“These female scientists share a strong passion for science,” said Lu Jian, the TV show’s host. “They are making a pathway(通道) for the next women scientists.”Actions should also be taken to create a better environment for women working in the field ofscience and technology, noted Science and Technology Daily. For example, they should be given more resources, join in decision-making and gain support for their research during maternity(生育).21．According to UNESCO, the number of women who study STEM is ________ the number of men.A．equal to B．far more than C．much less than D．close to 22．Lenore Blum thinks that ________.A．more female scientists should find different jobs B．women scientists are good role models C．scientists should be known by more people D．women are good at studying science 23．She Power in Tech is a program that ________.A．shares stories of women scientists B．teaches basic scientific knowledge C．picks up future women scientists D．spreads the latest scientific developments 24．What problems are female scientists facing now?a. Having fewer resources than male scientists.b. Bearing no hardships compared with males.c. Lacking opportunities to make decisions.d. Being unable to work while having a baby. A．abc B．abd C．acd D．bcdChina’s Twenty-four Solar Terms is considered to be the country’s fifth great invention. It has been added to UNESCO’s List of Intangible Cultural Heritage (联合国教科文组织非物质文化遗产名录).The Twenty-four Solar Terms was invented by ancient Chinese. At that time, most people were farmers. They had to learn about the movement of the sun in a year and do the farming accordingly. The Twenty-four Solar Terms shows the changes of climate, seasons and some biological phenomena (生物现象).

Start of Spring, Start of Summer, Start of Autumn and Start of Winter are openings of the four seasons. Awakening of Insects is between arch 5th and March 6th. During this period, many living things come out after a long winter of silence.The Twenty-four Solar Terms shows ancient Chinese people’s wisdom. Now it is added toUNESCO’s heritage list. This means that it is accepted and will be accepted by more and more people in the world.25．Why did ancient Chinese invent the Twenty-four Solar Terms?A．Because they wanted to tell the differences of four seasons.B．Because they wanted to learn something about the sun.C．Because they wanted to help them do the farming.D．Because most of them were farmers.26．When is Rain Water?A．It is between February 18th and March 20th.B．It is between February 18th and February 20th.C．It is between March 5th and March 6th.D．It is between March 18th and March 20th.27．What happens when Awakening of Insects comes?A．Summer begins.B．The temperature goes down.C．There will be more and more snow.D．The snake comes out after a long winter sleep.28．How many solar terms are mentioned in the article?A．Two solar terms are mentioned.B．Four solar terms are mentioned.C．Five solar terms are mentioned.D．Six solar terms are mentioned. 29．According to the passage, which of the following is Not True?A．The Twenty-four Solar Terms shows that ancient Chinese people were wise.B．The Twenty-four Solar Terms is one of the four great inventions.C．The Twenty-four Solar Terms is added to UNESCO’s heritage list.D．The Twenty-four Solar Terms is accepted in the world.Movie-making factories are called studios. Like all other businesses, they have to follow the rules of good business. There is a person, called “the top man”, running the studio. He is usually someone with a powerful personality. His power of character is necessary so that the “boss” can deal with famous stars and rich investors(投资者). Some movie stars can only contract(签合同) with one studio. They cannot work for another. Big studios like Columbia, Fox,Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer are the most important movie-making companies in Hollywood.Making a film takes a long time and is very hard work. Writing the story for the film needs many weeks. Shooting a film often takes at least six months. Actors and cameramen work from very early in the morning until late at night. Each scene has to be acted and reacted, filmed and refilmed, until it is just right. Sometimes the same scene has to be acted many times.The film studio is like a large factory, and the indoor stages are very big indeed. Scenery of all kinds is made in the studio. Churches, houses, castles, and forest are all built of wood and cardboard(纸板盒). Several hundred people work together to make one film. Some of these people are actors and actresses. The director of the film, however, is the most important person in a film studio. He decides how the scenes should be filmed and how the actors should act.Most people go to see a film because the film stars they like are in it. Sometimes the film may be very poor. It is best to choose a film made by a good director. Some famous directors make their films very real. People feel that they themselves are among the people in the film. 30．How many big studios are mentioned in the passage?A．3B．4C．5D．631．The scenes have to be reacted and refilmed many times because ________.A．it takes time to make a film B．it is difficult to make them realC．it is not easy to make them good enough D．several hundred people work together 32．Who is the most important person in a film studio?A．The top man running the studio.B．An experienced cameraman.C．An excellent actor.D．The director of the film.33．According to the passage, most people go to see a film because ________.A．they like the scenes in it B．their favourite film stars are in itC．they want to know who is the director D．they want to learn its story34．We can probably see the passage in a(n) ________.A．newspaper B．magazine C．advertisement D．storybookOn a wild mountain, two goats met on a road just over a high cliff (悬崖). The road was so narrow that there was neither room for them to pass each other nor to turn round and go back. What do you think the two goats did?One of them with great care lay himself down on the narrow road, pressing as close to the rock as he could. Then the other goat softly walked on his friend, till, safely past him, he could lightly jump away.The goat that had lain down then stood up slowly from his place, safe and sound, free to jump again from rock to rock, and enjoyed the sweet grass on the hills happily.However, two other goats met on the banks of a rushing river. A tree had fallen across the river, and became a bridge from one side to the other.The two goats looked at each other, and each wished to pass over first.They stood for a while with one foot on the tree, each thinking that the other would turn back. But neither of them would give way, and they met at last on the middle of the narrow bridge!They then began to push and fight with their horns (角), until at last their feet slipped, and both the goats fell into the running river.Both might have been saved, if either of them had known how to give way at the right time. 35．How did the first two goats pass the narrow road safely?A．One goat turned around and went back.B．One goat jumped over the other and walked away.C．One goat lay down on the road so that the other could first leave.D．They stood there and passed the road carefully together.36．What was the bridge made of?A．A tree.B．A stone.C．Some stones.D．Some trees. 37．What happened when the two goats met on the middle of the bridge?A．They pushed and fought.B．They lay on the bridge.C．They looked at each other.D．They stood on the bridge.38．The underlined word “slipped” in Paragraph 7 means ________ in Chinese.A．浸湿B．打滑C．磨损D．断裂39．The passage tells us that ________.A．we should face the challenge in life B．we should be careful to cross the bridge C．we should give way to others at the right time D．we should be brave to climb the mountainsThe first time I saw Kai, she was sitting in my front yard, hugging my dog Harley.

Her voice was always full of happiness.It didn’t take long before Kai was beloved by everyone in our neighborhood. Children and adults visited her home often.

Sometimes I would read her my stories and she would always encourage me to keep writing.All of this time, though, Kai was slowly dying from cancer. She told me the first time we talked that she was terminal (晚期). But she lived each day with a positive attitude. Still, she died on a cold winter day with heavy snow falling down.During the short time we had together, I learned so much from Kai about how to truly live.

In China, there are many stories about the exploration of space.Thousands of years ago, there was a lady named Chang’e who flew to the Moon and lived there. It’s a story just living in myths (神话). In the Ming Dynasty, a man named Wan Hu used the machine which was made of a chair, some fireworks and a kite as a rocket. He wanted to go into the space but failed. He wasconsidered as the first human to try to explore the space.In 2003, when Shenzhou V successfully set off, Yang Liwei’s words “ask for instructions to go to the war” brought tears (眼泪) to our eyes. Carrying the flying dream of the Chinese nation for thousands of years, the first “space visitor” of China, excellently completed his task. It started the space age for the Chinese. In 2008, Zhai Zhigang, Liu Boming and Jing Haipeng returned to space by Shenzhou VIl. Zhai achieved the success of the first Chinese spacewalk. “I am out of the capsule (太空舱), I feel good,” he told the world proudly.In the following years, China kept on making its way to explore more about the space. Especially in the recent two years, China has launched (发射) Shenzhou XIII and Shenzhou XIV. Six astronauts have been sent into the space.From 2003 to 2022, China’s manned space-flight has gone through about twenty years of hard, but successful journey. With the take-off again and again, Chinese people go farther and farther in space, but our dream is getting closer and closer.In the near future, Chinese people will be sent to the Moon and land on it.5．How did the writer show people’s imagination of the space in China?A．By telling stories.B．By giving numbers.C．By asking questions.D．By showing pictures.6．What made Zhai Zhigang feel proud?A．He pushed the Chinese technology.B．He took the first Chinese spacewalk.C．He finished the invention of the Shenzhou VIl.D．He got the safe returning to the space.7．What is the right order according to this passage?①The space age for the Chinese started.②The first Chinese spacewalk was achieved.③Shenzhou V successfully set off.④Shenzhou XIII and Shenzhou XIV were launched.A．①③②④B．①③④②C．③②①④D．③①②④8．In which part of the magazine can we read this passage?A．Health.B．Culture.C．Science.D．Business.（三）Wang Yaping, together with Zhai Zhigang and Ye Guangfu, went into space on October 16th, 2021. Wang became the first Chinese woman astronaut to enter Tiangong space station.Wang was born in January 1980. Her space dream started in 2003, when China sent its first astronaut Yang Liwei into space. At that time, Wang was a pilot in the Chinese army. After having safe flights for 1,600 hours over nine years, Wang was a strong candidate (候选人) to become an astronaut in 2010. She pushed herself hard, getting the same training as men. “The space environment won't change because you are a woman,” she said.The hardest part is the high-G training. Sitting in a spinning (旋转的) machine, Wang would become blind for a while because her brain was short of blood. “There’s a red button,” said Wang. “If you can’t stand it, you can press it to stop.” But Wang never used it. “There is no such red button in my heart.” That strong spirit finally made her dream come true in 2013. She joined the team for the Shenzhou X mission (任务).Wang said that as astronauts, women have their own advantages. “Women may be more patient and can better deal with loneliness.”Wang Yaping went a long way before becoming the first woman to enter the Tiangong space station. She sets a good example for all women who dream of going to space.9．How old was Wang Yaping when she first enter Tiangong space station?A．19.B．38.C．40.D．41.10．What was Wang Yaping’s job in 2003?A．She was a pilot.B．She was a worker.C．She was a teacher.D．She was an astronaut.11．What do Wang Yaping’s words mean in Paragraph 2?A．The space environment is easy to change.B．Only men can go to space station in the world.C．Men and women will face the same difficulties in space.D．Both men and women astronauts can go to space bravely.12．Why would Wang become blind for a while when training?A．Because she was in a dark room.B．Because her brain was short of blood.C．Because there was something wrong with her ears.D．Because she is a woman, she couldn’t stand the training.13．Which of the following is TRUE?A．Wang is the first woman astronaut in the world.B．Wang dreamed of being an astronaut in 2003.C．It was a short time before Wang made her dream come true.D．Wang pressed the red button when she became blind after the high-G training.（四）The rockets take astronauts and man-made satellites into space. The satellites are used for communication, weather monitoring and research. But how do satellites stay up without falling down?There are two opposite forces (力量) acting on the satellites. One of them is the force of gravitation (地心引力), whiç．h tries to pull the satellites towards the earth. The other force is created by the rotation (旋转) of the satellite around the earth. This force tries to take the satellite away from the earth. With these two forces, the satellite goes round and round. The gravitational pull of the earth (the force which pulls everything towards the ground) is like a rope which keeps the satellite from flying away.Everything that goes up has to come down. It is only a matter of time before a satellite comes back to the earth. As time goes by, the satellite loses its speed, which makes the gravitational pull stronger than the force pulling it away. This makes the satellite crash (坠落) down to the earth.根据短文内容，选择正确答案。

哈尔滨中考英语阅读理解训练中考英语专项训练含答案解析一、中考英语阅读理解训练1．阅读理解I opened the door. "Where are you going, Mom?" my elder son asked me. And his little brother asked, "Can we come, too?" "I'm going for a coffee," I answered. "And no, you can't come." Then I ran away before they could say something. But the guilt（内疚的） feelings slowly went away. Being a mom is hard work. There's always something new to do to make my kids happy. Sometimes, I need to do something just for me. It teaches my kids an important lesson: I matter, too.I know parenting articles often tell us it's OK to take time for ourselves. But it's so much harder to walk the talk. Of course, we should put ourselves first sometimes. And not just when we are sick. I'm talking about putting ourselves first in other ways. For example, tell the baby that after thirty minutes of reading to them, you are going to read your own book or eat at your favorite restaurant. These selfish moments are good ways to teach our children that we are important too. When you ask my kids "What does mom like?" They can answer with some of my interests and favorite things: reading books, watching movies, taking care of animals and them. They often see me do the things I enjoy, so they understand me and would stay with Dad. This understanding is good for our children. "She's a mom" shouldn't be the only way your child describes you. If it is, it's time to be a little selfish, Moms.（1）Why did the woman leave her children quickly?A. She had little time left that day.B. She tried not to change her mind.C. She didn't want to explain herself.D. She had many things to do that day.（2）What does the underlined part in Paragraph 3 mean?A. It's easier said than done.B. It's harder to make a start.C. It's harder to keep our word.D. It's not easy to take a walk.（3）Why do the women's kids know her favorites?A. They have the same interests.B. They often do things together.C. They often see what she's doing.D. Their dad tells them about her interests.（4）What's the purpose of the passage? To tell Moms______________.A. How to be a good mother at home.B. to enjoy staying with their kids.C.

Walking together, my father and I used to have a lot of conversations through whic h I learned lessons from his experiences. He always told me, “You should have goals (目标) like climbing the mountain. ” Without the mountain-climbing that we both enjoyed, we couldn’t have enough time to spend together because my father was very busy. I really got a lot from mountain-climbing. It gave me time to talk with my father and to be in deep thought as well as develop my patience(耐力).Once we climbed a very high mountain. It was so challenging for me because I was only ten years old. During the firs t few hours of climbing, I enjoyed the flowers and trees, and the birds’ singing; but as time went by, I got a pain in both of my legs. I wanted to quit climbing. In fact, I hated it at that moment, but my father said to me, “You can always see a beautiful sky at the top of the mountain, but you can’t see it before you reach the top. Only there at the top, can you see all of the nice things, just like in life. ”At that time, I was too young to understand his words. But later after that, I got new hope and confidence.

It’s also used to unloc k phones or doors.Now, a similar technology, known as facial detection (探测), is entering a new field: the business of advertising (广告).Such systems are going through tests in a small number of stores. One facial detection system can judge (判断) a person’s “happiness” or “fear” level. Another system can detect whether someone is wearing eyeglasses. If so, stores can send advertisements for new glasses to him.Facial detection technology is also placed inside some large advertising boards. Cameras in thos e boards can detect information like people’s ages and five levels of feelings —from “very happy” to “very unhappy”.Supporters of the technology say it could improve buyers’ experience by showing products they might like or by offering them products at lower prices.Some are against the idea of using such systems. Pam Dixon, the head of a privacy (隐私) group, is one of them. She thinks ________. For example, a store could raise the price of a product according to a person’s age and feelings.However, on e store testing the technology explained people’s information like names or ages wouldn’t be stored.

He is a scholar （学者）who lived during the 3rd and 2nd centuries BC．Thanks to this scholar, we have the chance to enjoy the great book Shangshu, one of the “five classics” of Confucianism （儒学）.The TV show is named China in the Classics （典籍里的中国）. The wonderful program was presented by CCTV. In its first episode （集）, Fu Sheng’s story was turned into a stage show. After watching it, people not only showed great interest, but also were deeply moved by him. He lived a simple life and made his efforts to protect and pass on a country’s culture.The art director of the show is Tian Qinxin. It was not an easy task for him to turn an ancient classic into a one-hour stage show that connects with the people of today. However, he made it and the show received high praise from people.The TV show tells one classic Chinese book of ancient times in teaching episode, letting rich history shake hands with modern expressions. It is enjoyed by young people and makes classics “alive”.“Through the classics, we can see the foundations （基础）of modern China, ” said Tian. “No matter how the human history has developed, they still have a great influence on us.

Recently, he celebrated his 31st birthday. All his human friends wanted to make it a day to remember. On this special day, the seal got a large ice fish cake as a birthday gift.Yulelogs once lived in a marine park （海洋公园）in the north of England when he was just a baby. Later the park closed and he was put into the wild. However, after living with humans for years, Yulelogs was not ready to take care of himself. But he had good luck and was saved by an organization in England in 1993. He has lived there happily since then.Normally, male （雄性的）grey seals live to be around 25 years old in the wild, but under the good care of the organization, Yulelogs just turned 31. This birthday was a big milestone （里程碑）for him and the organization as well.To mark the milestone, workers there surprised him with a special gift—a large ice cake filled with delicious fish. Yulelogs was excited to see the cake, and he was there to show his joy. “Yulelogs really loved his birthday cake,” a worker said. “It’s also a challenge for him as it requires a bit of thinking on how to get the fish out of the cake!”35．Why was Yulelogs put into the wild?A．He liked living in the wild.B．The park that he once lived in closed.C．He was ready to take care of himself.36．What’s the right order of what happened to the seal?①He was put into the wild.②He was saved by an organization.③He lived in a marine park.A．①②③B．②③①C．③①②37．What can we infer （推断）from the passage?A．The birthday cake was made of ice and fish.B．Yulelogs may not have lived so long without the help of human.C．The seal’s 31st birthday was a milestone for him and the organization.38．What can be the best title of the passage?A．A seal’s birthday party.B．A marine park for seals.

Some of them can even drive themselves. Now, our roads have followed suit （跟着做）. In the United Kingdom alone, there are around 650 kilometers of “smart roads” in use. Across the world, many more are being built. Some new technologies are being put to use.Roads that recharge（充电）Global warming has made us search for new energy sources. Why not look to the roads? With the right technologies, cars around the world could be producing energy as they go. Piezoelectricity ads mix traditional asphalt（柏油）with new material. They use vibrations（振动）from passing cars to produce electricity. In fact, piezoelectricity is nothing new. It was invented in 1880. However, it has never been widely used before now. The UK’s Lancaster University is going to change that. It has been improving the technology, including developing roadside batteries that can store the electricity.Roads that never freeze________ A tech company in Israel has developed the Snowless roads. When they detect snow or ice on their surfaces, the roads will heat themselves up, melting the snow or ice away. The project has been successfully tested on a few Canadian roads and in some of its car parks.Built-in brainRoads of the future may be able to know how many people are on them. They could send them updates（实时信息）on weather and traffic jams, and recharge electric cars as they drive. This seems to be a dream, but one American company has almost made it come true. By sensing the weight of a vehicle, the company’s smart roads can track（跟踪）the speed of each wheel. “We are basically making very large touchpads,” says Tim Sylvester, CEO of the company. “but instead of looking for fingers, our roads look for tires.” After having collected traffic data, the roads will send it to the drivers.40．According to the passage, “smart roads” ________.A．haven’t been developed yet B．have made cars drive themselvesC．have been widely built before D．have been used in some countries41．Which of the following sentences can be put in the “________”?A．Many people like to drive smart cars.

Gene editing (基因编辑) is one way in which we could do this. But this method has also created some discussion.In an online video posted on Nov. 26, 2018, He Jiankui, a researcher at the Southern University of Science and Technology, said that he had helped to make the world’s first genetically edited babies.The babies are twin girls who were born in November. Their father had HIV. The twins’ genes were edited in order to prevent them from suffering from the HIV virus.He said he chose to do this because HIV is widespread in China. “I feel such a strong duty not only to be the first to do this, but also to set an example,” he told AP.But his actions caused many questions. Although gene editing may help to prevent disease, many people are wondering if it is safe and ethical to use it on humans.Some believe that gene editing could be useful to HIV patients. HIV is “a large and growing pub lic health problem”, according to Harvard Medical School genetic professor George Church. Using gene editing for HIV is “a good idea”, Church told AP.However, others think that gene editing is still in its experimental periods and could result in terrible changes. “It could cause genetic problems later in life, including the development of cancer,” Julian Savulescu from the University of Oxford told BBC News.Others fear that people might use gene editing technology to make “designer (设计的)babies”. It would give parents the ability to choose everything from their baby’s eye colour to their IQ.“You could find wealthy parents buying the latest ‘upgrades’ for their children, leading to even greater unfairness than we already live with,” Marcy Darnovsky, direc tor of the San Francisco Center for Genetics told BBC News.44．What do we know about He Jiankui?A．He was the first person to edit genes.B．He made the twins suffer from HIV when he edited their genes.C．He made the world’s first genetically edited babies.D．He was the first person whose genes were edited.45．Who agreed that gene editing could be helpful to HIV patients?A．George Church.

阅读单选Why the Best Things in Life are All BackwardsThere’s a part of Navy SEAL training called “drown-proofing” (抗溺水训练) where they bind your hands behind your back, tie your feet together, and dump you into a 9-foot-deep pool. Your job is to survive for five minutes.Most people who try drown-proofing fail. Many of them panic and scream. But some make it. And they do so because they understand a counterintuitive (违反直觉的) lesson: the more you struggle to keep your head above water, the more likely you are to sink (下沉).With your arms and legs bound, it’s impossible to keep yourself at the surface for the full five minutes. Even worse, your limited efforts to keep your body afloat will only cause you to sink faster. The trick to drown-proofing is to actually let yourself sink to the bottom of the pool. From there, you lightly push yourself off the pool floor and carry you back to the surface. Once there, you can have a quick breath of air and start the whole process over again.Strangely, surviving drown-proofing requires no superhuman strength. It doesn’t even require that you know how to swim. However, it requires the ability to not swim. This skill—the ability to let go of control when one wants it most—is one of the most important skills anyone can develop. And not just for SEAL training. For life.Most people suppose the relationship between effort and reward (回报、奖励) is one-to-one. We think that working twice as long will produce twice the results.This is almost never true. Most of the world does not exist on a linear curve. Linear relationships only work for mindless or repetitive tasks—driving a car, filling out paperwork, cleaning the bathroom, etc. In all of these cases, doing something for two hours will double the output of doing it for one hour. But that’s simply because they require no thought or creativity.Most activities in life do not operate along the linear effort/reward curve because most activities in life are not basic nor mindless. Most activities are complex (复杂的), mentally oremotionally involved. Therefore, most activities produce a diminishing returns curve.Diminishing returns means that the more you experience something, the less rewarding it becomes. The classic example is money. The difference between earning $20,000 and $40,000 is life-changing. The difference between $120,000 and $140,000 means your car has nicer seat heaters. The difference between earning $127,020,000 and $127,040,000 is basically nothing.Friendship has diminishing returns, as does eating, sleeping, working out at the gym, reading books, studying for an exam—the examples are endless.But there’s another curve, the inverted curve, where effort and reward have a negative relation—the more effort you put into doing something, the more you will fail to do it.Drown-proofing exists on an inverted curve. The more effort you put into rising to the surface, the more likely you will be to fail at it.Few things in life work on an inverted curve. But the few things that do are important. In fact, the most important experiences and goals in life all exist on an inverted curve.Going after happiness takes you further away from it. The longing for greater freedom is often what causes us to feel stuck and trapped. The need to be loved and accepted prevents us from loving and accepting ourselves.The harder we try to do something, the less we shall succeed. This is “The Backwards Law”: desiring a positive experience is itself a negative experience; accepting a negative experience is a positive experience. The goal is to take your mind and teach it to stop chasing its own tail. To stop chasing meaning, freedom and happiness because those only serve to move it further away fromitself. To show it how the only way to reach the surface is by letting itself sink.You lean into the fear and uncertainty, and just when you think you’re going to drown, just as you reach the bottom, it will launch you back to your salvation (拯救).1．The key to survive drown-proofing is to ________.A．sink down and lift up B．have enough practiceC．hold your breath for long D．move smartly underwater2．What can we know about the three curves?A．Linear curve shows the possibility of success.B．Diminishing returns tells us the less the better.C．Inverted curve works when we have spiritual needs.D．There is no direct link between the action and the result.3．According to the three curves, which application is probably true?A．The more friends we have, the happier we will feel.B．Cleaning works better in the first hour than the second.C．Confidence increases when we try, and then stops increasing.D．The more we want respect from others, the less they will respect us.4．The writer suggests that we should ________.A．build mind power to live betterB．shape values for positive outcomesC．give up struggle to gain what we desireD．accept negativity because we are not perfectOnce upon a time, there was a girl named Heather. She loved her home. It was a big,two-floored house. She had lived there for practically her whole life. “Heather, will you please come downstairs? I need to talk to you about something important.” Her mother said, from downstairs. It was a chilly winter night. “Yes, mother!” Heather said, then came downstairs. “What’s up?” She asked her parents, sitting down on the sofa, beside them.“Dear, I want to talk to you about something important. It’s about this house. You see, month by month, this place has been hard to repair, because it’s so old. We have decided to move houses.” Her mother said. Heather was shocked to hear this. “But, mother, it’s fine! I will donate my moneyto repair this house! Please! Let’s not move!” she said, desperate to change her mother’s mind.Before her mother could reply, she stormed upstairs to her room. She sat on her bed and cried. “I don’t want to shift! This house isn’t all that old!” After some time, she lay down on her bed and slept.The next day, at the breakfast, her mother sat down across from her. “Heather, I promise, you will like your new home! You’ll be used to it before you know it!” Her mother said, trying to make Heather feel better. “Ok. I hope you’re right.” Heather mumbled（咕哝）. “We will move into an apartment, just 45 minutes away from this house. The house may not have as many rooms which we have here, but it has two balconies（阳台）, which have spectacular views!” Her mother said excitedly.Heather could see that her mother was excited to move. “That sounds promising! Maybe I will like it there!” she said to her mother, trying to sound cheerful. “I’m sure you will!” Her mother said.Before Heather knew it, Sunday had come. Her packing was done, and so was her parents’. She looked around. Her house was empty. It reminded her of the first time she stepped in it when she was about 5 years old. The house was empty then, too. Nine years later, that moment repeated itself. She didn’t know why, but this seemingly unimportant moment was very heart-touching for her. She smiled. Heather went to every room, saying her goodbyes.“Dear house, I have enjoyed our time here. But, now it’s time for me to leave. Don’t be sad! We might meet someday, again. Let us both await it. I love you! You have made my life more special, with just your presence in it. I hope you work that magic of yours on every future resident （住户）to live here. Goodbye!” She said to her house.5．Why did Heather’s parents want to move to a new house?A．Because they had enough money to live there.B．Because the old house was too old to be repaired.C．Because the new house was close to the work places.D．Because they wanted to give a better future to Heather.6．Which of the following statements is true about the new house?A．It had wonderful views with two balconies.B．It was very big and had two floors inside.C．It was not far away from Heather’s school.D．It was only 5 years old and still empty now.7．In Heather’s eyes, what is so meaningful in the old house?A．The long history.B．The promising resident.C．The unforgettable moments.D．The heart-touching goodbyes.The basic scientific method includes the steps scientists use and follow when trying to solve a problem or prove or disprove a theory. The methods are used by scientists all over the world.There are usually four steps which are a part of the scientific method. The steps can appear in any order, but the first step is usually observation. An observation is the use of one or more of the five senses, which include seeing, hearing, feeling, smelling, and tasting. The five senses are used to learn about or identify an event or object the scientist wants to study. For example, while observing a spider, a scientist may observe the pattern or size of the spider’s web.The second step of the scientific method is the question being researched, the hypothesis. It is the question that is turned into a statement about an event or object the scientist would like to research. A good hypothesis includes three things: The explanation for the observations, it is able to be tested by other scientists, and it will usually predict new outcomes or conclusions (结论). The scientist observing the spider building the web may have a question about the strength of the web. An example of the hypothesis might be: The larger the spider, the stronger the web. This hypothesis includes the explanation for the observation. It can be tested, and new conclusions may be reached.The third step of the scientific method is the experiment. An experiment is a test which will either challenge or support the hypothesis. The hypothesis will then be true or false. Using the spider hypothesis, a scientist may experiment by measuring spider webs in relation to a spider’s size. Often, even when a hypothesis is disproved, much can still be learned during the experiment. For example, while measuring the strength of spider webs, the scientist may discover something new about them.The final step in the scientific method is the conclusion. The conclusion will either clearlysupport the hypothesis or it will not. If the results support the hypothesis, a conclusion can be written. If it does not support the hypothesis, the scientist may choose to change the hypothesis or write a new one based on what was learned during the experiment. In the example, if the scientist proves that larger spiders build stronger webs, then that is the conclusion. If it was not proven, the scientist may change the hypothesis to: The size of a spider does has no bearing on the strength of its web.The scientific method is used for simple experiments. Students may do in the classroom or difficult experiments being done all over the world. The spider experiment may be done by any scientist in the world.In summary, the scientific method includes the steps scientists use to solve a problem or to prove or disprove a theory. There are four basic steps involved with the scientific method. The usual steps include observation, hypothesis, experiment, and conclusion. The steps may not always be completed in the same order. Following the four steps, the results of the experiment will either support the hypothesis or will not support the hypothesis. Scientists are always free to change or write a new hypothesis and start the four steps all over again. The scientific method is used for simple experiments or for more difficult experiments.8．Which of the steps in the scientific method would a scientist use for seeing, hearing, feeling, smelling, and tasting?A．Conclusion.B．Observation.C．Experiment.D．Hypothesis. 9．According to Paragraph 4, which of the following statements is true?A．Spiders and their webs are supplies in scientific experiments.B．Measuring the size of spiders is the first step of the experiment.C．Scientists are likely to discover something new from disproved hypothesis. D．Hypothesis plays an important role in performing the experiment.10．The underlined word “bearing” in Paragraph 5 probably means ________.A．relation B．direction C．agreement D．condition 11．What can we learn from the passage?A．Scientific method should be used in fixed order for experiments.B．Observation can help scientists get ready for new conclusion.C．Experiments are performed in order to prove the hypothesis is right.D．Conclusion includes the results of the experiment or new hypothesis.Tips for How to Work TogetherThere are many times in school and beyond when you will need to work with other people. You may be working together to complete a project, make a decision, discuss a book, or achieve a goal.No matter the situation, there are four words that will make your experience of working together the best it can be: prepare, listen, respect, and respond. Here are some guidelines to get you started.12．According to the passage, you may be working together to ________.A．play a game B．take a tripC．discuss a book D．attend a class13．If you want to get prepared, you should ________.A．have an open mind B．express your views clearlyC．look at people as they speak D．research your topic14．When you give your coworker a thumbs up, you ________.A．respect others’ comments B．use encouraging body languageC．know your role in the group D．have some questions to askClose your eyes. Try to bring back a memory of taking an exam in your worst subject with your strictest teacher. Probably you remember looking at the paper, feeling you didn’t know any of the answers. Your heart was beating fast...Not surprisingly, you think of that experience as all bad, a long-lasting discomfort.But maybe it didn’t have to be that way. A paper in Nature reports that a one-time online mindset exercise（思维模式训练）improved the way young people thought about stressful events and their uncomfortable responses（反应）. The exercise is based on two mindsets: first, ability is not fixed but can be improved with effort and support; second, body responses to stress can be helpful. As students work through the exercise themselves, they read information about how the brain builds on experience and how the body uses stress——a fast-beating heart sends more blood to the brain to help you think. The exercise also suggests ways to succeed in stressful situations, and it asks students to write about what they might do differently next time.Researchers invited thousands of high school and college students to take the exercise. The findings show that this exercise appears to be able to change our understanding of the world around us and our responses to it. Compared with those who didn’t take the exercise, students who took part thought about stress differently, turning it into a way of energizing the motivation（激活动力）to achieve a goal. What’s more, the exercise changed their body responses for the better, preparing the body to respond to events as a challenge rather than a threat（威胁）.“Difficulty and struggle are your friends,” says Christopher Bryan, a social psychologist and one of the researchers. “Those experiences don’t feel good in the moment, but it’s the path anyone who became truly excellent at anything had to travel.”The exercise could be put into further use. It could be specially made for athletes or office workers in the future. Once it has been fully tested, the exercise could be ready for use in high schools and colleges nationwide.The researchers don’t just want young people to rethink about stress; they want adults to rethink about young people. “Our studies suggest that we might not teach young people that theyare too weak to get over difficulties, but that we might, instead, provide them with resources and guidance so that young people can show their skills and creativity in dealing with big problems,” they write in the paper.15．According to Paragraph 2, the mindset exercise may help you ________.A．forget about your stressful momentsB．find ways to slow down your heartbeatC．record what you have been through beforeD．understand how the brain builds on experience16．What can we learn about the exercise?A．It is now helping teenagers nationwide.B．It is especially helpful to office workers.C．It aims to help teenagers get better grades.D．It can change students’ responses to events.17．The writer would probably agree that ________.A．difficulties are part of growth for young peopleB．motivation plays the key role in achieving a goalC．teenagers are too weak to get through difficultiesD．adults should show their skills and creativity first18．What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?A．To question the influence of stress.B．To explain the importance of stress.C．To introduce a way to look at stress.D．To compare two mindsets about stress.Last fall, I signed up for a four-month program for teenagers in Mountain High School. I went there because hikes, art, and fields of corn sounded fun to me.When I set out in August, I hugged my parents’ goodbye. “See you in December!” I said.My parents nodded. They were worried — I could tell. It was because they knew me so well. They knew that I had trouble reaching out. They knew that I was shy and I made friends slowly.My dad looked worriedly at me and my mom’s voice shook as she said, “You’re going to bejust fine, baby girl.”The first two weeks were difficult. I made half-hearted small talks at meals, and I cried in the shower. For me, being around people all the time was more tiring than a five-mile race. I was out of my comfort zone, and I couldn’t go back.One day during the third week, I spent two hours collecting corn with one of my classmates. My feelings matched the darkening sky. I wanted to be alone. After a while, she asked, “Where are you from again?” Half an hour passed, “How many brothers or sisters do you have?”Finally, my classmate said the three magic words in the English language: I LOVE READING. Soon I found myself talking about books I enjoyed reading. I started to relax. A few bricks (砖) fell down from my wall of shyness.A few more fell. I started to reach out. The bricks fell and fell and fell. By the end of the program, I was totally different. I ran through the dining hall, I jumped on the chairs, I sang, and I made friends.That was the wonderful thing about a comfort zone: once you are out of it, it doesn’t take long to find a new normal. When I arrived, people tired me. When I left, I couldn’t stand leaving them.19．The writer’s parents worried about her because ________.A．she disliked the program B．she was always a shy girlC．she feared to leave home D．she was a very slow reader.20．The writer started to relax after ________.A．calling her parentsB．running a hard raceC．talking about booksD．crying in the shower21．From her experience, the writer learned about ________.A．the benefits of living by oneselfB．the joy of leaving a comfort zoneC．the value of having a new hobbyD．the importance of making friendsFrom football to volleyball, “ball” is part of the sport’s name in many cases. However, if you watch an ice hockey game for the first time, you will probably notice that, unlike many sports, there’s no ball.In ice hockey, it’s all about the puck: the little round black object that flies around the ice. As two teams skate rapidly on the ice, they fight with sticks to get the puck into the net. They skate so fast and shoot the puck with such force that it’s almost impossible to keep track of it.Hockey pucks are flat and round. Made of black rubber, they are about 7.62 centimeters across and 2.54 centimeters thick. Each puck weighs about 170 grams. Have you ever seen a hockey puck up close? If so, you’ve probably noticed that there are raised patterns on the edge of the puck. A completely smooth puck would be hard to shoot. The raised patterns give the hockey stick something to hold onto when a player takes a shot.The hockey puck first appeared in 1875, though it’s unclear who actually invented it. Experts believe the first hockey puck was likely just a rubber ball cut in half. This provided players with an object with a flat side that would slide（滑行）across the ice.Today, hockey pucks are only made in four countries: Canada, Russia, China, and the Czech Republic. At large factories, workers mix rubber with a special material first. Next, they add carbon black to the mixture. Then, they pour the mixture into a mold（模具）and press it. After that, special logos can be added to each side through a step called silk screening. About 5,000 logoed pucks can be made in a week.Hockey pucks are really cool. They are kept frozen so that they slide on the ice and don’t bounce（弹跳）around. Once the players tie their ice skates, they’re off running after the puck, which can reach speeds of up to 160 kilometers per hour or more!22．The expression “keep track of” in Paragraph 2 probably means “________”.A．follow B．collect C．lead D．cross23．What can we learn from the passage? ________A．It takes four steps to produce a logoed puck.B．The first hockey puck was a round rubber ball.C．The pucks are kept frozen to bounce around the ice.D．Raised patterns make it hard for players to take shots.24．Which of the following could be the best title of the passage? ________A．Slide on the Ice with PucksB．Get to Know All about PucksC．Have Fun Playing Ice HockeyD．Take a Close Look at Ice HockeyAre you interested in helping your kids take up a new hobby? Here are some ideas for you.25．Gardening ________ .A．requires a private gardenB．provides a good way to work outC．teaches kids to save moneyD．helps kids keep their hands clean26．What can improve kids’ creative thinking skills? ________A．Gardening.B．Bread-making.C．Calligraphy.D．Paper-folding.27．The passage is written for________.A．teachers B．students C．parents D．visitorsYou should time your meals, because a full stomach can be the reason why you can’t get to sleep at night. A light snack at bedtime can promote (提升) sleep, but too much food can cause digestive (消化的) discomfort that leads to wakefulness. Moreover, you’d better not drink coffee or tea in the evenings. Any food or drink that contains caffeine can disturb (扰乱) sleep, especially if you are sensitive to caffeine.People’s body is easily influenced by light and darkness. Doctors strongly suggest darkening the bedroom before you go to sleep. So, start from turning down the lights in your bedroom. Turn off laptops, TVs and other sources of light in our bedroom. These things send out blue light which can cause wakefulness at night and break up the body’s natural inclination to sleep. Moreover, close your curtains (窗帘) and blinds at night, so you will be able to sleep calmly.It’s important to change your sleep cycle gradually in order to avoid stress and different sleep disorders. The most suitable way is to do it in 15-minute amount of increase. If you have to wake up earlier, try to fall asleep 15 minutes earlier each evening. It may be difficult to fall asleep at once, take some relaxing activities like a bubble bath. I think a few nights will be enough for you to feel comfortable with the new schedule (时间表). You should stick to the same sleep and wake up schedule. Don’t forget about weekends! It is allowed to have an extra hour on Saturday, but you are to be back on track for Sunday. It will help your body get used to this new routine.If you have done all possible things to fall asleep and you are still tossing and turning, you should get up and start doing things you have no time to do during the day. Don’t torture (折磨)yourself! Do something low-stress and boring until you discover that you are tired. As a rule, 30 minutes of boring activities will be enough to bring you back to bed. A good night’s sleep is an indispensable (不可或缺的) part of your life. It can refresh and restore your body. I hope these tips will help you change your sleep schedule.28．What can we learn from the passage?A．Some boring activities can make it difficult to fall into sleep.B．The blue light in the bedroom is helpful to get to sleep easily.C．The sleep schedule should be changed according to work time.D．Eating a light snack before going to bed could be good for sleep.29．What does the writer mainly tell us in the passage?A．The advantages of carrying out the sleep schedule every day.B．Some effective suggestions that can help to fall asleep in bed.C．Several kinds of relaxing sports should be taken before sleep.D．A few practical methods to save electrical energy in bedrooms.30．The phrase “inclination to sleep” in Paragraph 2 probably means “________”.A．state of being eager for sleep B．steps of forming a sleep cycle C．process of falling into sleep D．conditions of sleeping in bed31．What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?A．To discuss the relationship between sleep and health.B．To introduce the bad effects caused by sleep disorders.C．To advise on how to drive wakefulness away from sleep.D．To introduce a suitable diet for a good night’s sleep.The Power of DreamAs Tony walked with his family along the river, he saw a man playing the saxophone (萨克斯管) by the river.

最新中考英语阅读理解题汇总（共20篇附答案）Passage 1Nowadays, many teens are badly addicted to using phones.It probably won’t surprise you that teens are texting more than ever before.Instead of sleeping, Kenny Alarcon, 16, often texts with his friends through the night.Frances Garcia, a high school senior, sends and receives about 1000 texts each day.Both Frances and Kenny wake up several times during the night to text.Kenny even sleeps with his phone under his pillow.Dr.Elizabeth Dowdell, a professor at Villanova University in Pennsylvania, says that it’s common for teens to be interrupted by texts while sleeping.“If they often lose sleep,”Dr.Dowdell says, “teens may become angry, or depressed.A lack of sleep can lead to weight gain and even obesity because many people turn to junk food for quick energy when they are tired.”Some experts are worried about how texting is affecting teenagers’lives.One concern is that students might not learn correct grammar and spelling if most of the writing they do is made up of text messages.Some people also worry that teens don’t spend enough time talking with othersface-to-face, which could be hurting their relationships with friends and family.Moreover, all that texting takes away hours that could be spent studying, exercising, taking up a hobby, or just relaxing.According to Dr.Dowdell, teens need to learn that they can and should turn off their phones sometimes.She had Kenny and Frances do an experiment.These were the rules: No phone for 48 hours.No computer or Internet either, unless it was for schoolwork.After 48 phone-free hours, Kenny and Frances were interviewed.“Wow, it was pure torture(折磨),”Kenny joked.Kenny missed his friends, and he was sad at times.But he also felt relief from the constant texting.He spent time reading books and talking with his family, which he really enjoyed.Frances had an even happier result.“I loved it!”she said, “I was going to the gym and hanging out with friends and playing basketball.I had a wonderful experience.”Frances decided to continue the experiment for a while.“I think I’ll be so much smarter and healthier,”she explained, “everybody in the world should try it.”1.If teens keep waking up to text while sleeping, they may _____.A.get overweightB.become happierC.disturb their parentsD.feel more relaxed2.What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?A.Mistakes in teens’text writing.B.Time wasted on meaningless texting.C.Worries about how texting affects teens.D.Encouragement to teens’talking face-to-face.3.The writer mentions the experiment on Frances and Kenny to _____.A.advise people what to do without phonesB.show teens can live well without phonesC.explain phones are important in teens’livesD.introduce how they make good use of phones【主旨大意】本文是一篇议论文, 文中主要谈到了手机对青少年的不良影响, 并通过一个实验表明, 离开手机, 青少年也能过得很好。
