（精品，值得下载练习)

[答题技巧]

阅读理解着重测试学生理解性阅读的能力。这种阅读要求考生掌握事实、了解细节，同时也要求考生领会深层含义、把握主旨。

1．快读全文，掌握大意

阅读理解与完形填空题一样，属“语篇理解”题型，宜先通读全文，初步了解短文的整体框架、主旨大意及作者意向，以获取主要信息和各段中心内容。

2．细读题目，有的放矢

细读文后的题目在于审读这些题目是针对什么设计的。带着问题进行有目的地阅读，可以边阅读边选出考查表层情况试题的答案，从而提高效率。

3．再读全文，掌握细节

在初读文章和了解题目要求后细读全文，可用铅笔做标记，把有关的人物、事件、时间、地点、起因划出来。例如，凡逢人物就圈起来，看后一数，有几个圈就是几个人，一目了然。经过这样的处理，对文章的内容和细节便会胸有成竹，对事态的发生、发展和解决有了更深入的理解。

4．试选答案，先易后难

对那些深度理解的题目(多为主观判断题)，应在查阅短文、找出

依据、仔细推敲后，再确定正误。在选择答案时，有些选项干扰性很强，这时可以采用排除法进行选择；有一部分试题的答案在文中无法直接找到，而要求考生根据已有的常识结合文章来进行判断。考生在推理时，切不要加入自己的主观印象或加入自己的情感。在未完全读懂文章时不要匆忙选定答案，抓紧时间在尚未读懂的地方细读几遍，力争通过上下文的联系理解文章再选定答案。

5．复读全文．核对答案

要用全文的主题思想核对各题，上下对照，研究其内在的联系和逻辑关系，并依次审核各道题目的答案。

Mary was waiting for the airplane to take off. She was happy to get a seat by herself. Just then, an air hostess came up to her and asked, "Would you mind changing your seat? A man would like to sit with his wife." The only available seat was next to a girl with her arms broken, a

black-and-blue face, and a sad expression. "I don't want to sit there," Mary thought immediately. But a soft voice spoke, "She needs help." Finally, Mary moved to that seat.

The girl was named Emily. She had been in a car accident and now was on her way for treatment.

When the snack and juice arrived, Mary realized that Emily could not feed herself. Mary considered offering to feed her but hesitated (犹豫), as it seemed too impolite to offer a service to a stranger. But then Mary realized that Emily's need was more important. Mary offered to help her eat. Although Emily was uncomfortable to accept, she agreed. They became closer and closer in a short time. By the end of the five-hour trip, Mary's heart had warmed, and the time was really better spent than if she had just sat by herself.

We usually believe what our brain tells us, but there are some amazing facts which show that the brain tricks us. As a result, we think we can see something that is not actually there or we ignore (忽视) things that actually are there.

Each group had three members. Simons and Chabris asked the participants to count how many times the white team passed the ball.

In the past, many people used horses for traveling, farming and other kinds of work. A lot of people still like to ride horses. And horse racing is also popular. So it is not surprising that Americans use this animal when they talk.

Long ago, rich or important people rode horses which were very tall. Today, if a girl acts like she is better than everyone else, you might say she should get off her high horse.

Yesterday my children wanted me to take them to the playground. But I had to finish my work, so I said, "Hold your horses. Wait until I finish what I am doing." My two boys like to

compete against each other and play in a noisy and not very careful way. I always tell them to stop horsing around or someone could get hurt.

Last night, I got a telephone call while I was watching my favourite TV show. I decided not to answer it because wild horses could not drag (拖，拽) me away from the television. There was nothing that could stop me from doing what I wanted to do.

Sometimes you get information straight from the horse's mouth. Let us say your teacher tells you there is going to be a test tomorrow. You could say you got the information straight from the horse's mouth.

You can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make him drink. That means you can give someone advice but you cannot force him to do something he does not want to do.

He picked up the brush and started painting slowly and carefully. Soon, his friend Ben Rogers appeared,eating an apple. Tom pretended (假装) not to see him.

What do you call work?"

"Isn't that work?" Ben asked.

"Well, no. Does a boy get the opportunity to paint a fence every day? You've never painted a fence, have you? Auntie says I have to do it with great care!"

"Please, Tom. Let me do a little," said Ben.

"No, Ben. If you do, you'll do it wrong. You can't paint very well. '

"I won't do it wrong. I'll be really careful. I'll give you my apple." Tom gave him the brush and paint with a sad face, but in his heart he was glad. His trick had worked.

After Ben got tired and left, other boys came along and Tom said the same things to them. Soon, the whole fence was painted white, but not by Tom.

2018年中考英语题型专项复习任务型阅读20篇与答案

2018年中考英语题型专项复习任务型阅读20篇与答案 Passage 1 The Art of the Elephants If your cat walked across something you were painting and left footprints behind, would you consider your cat an artist? What if your bird held a colored pencil in its beak（喙）and painted on a piece of paper? Most people may think of animal art as a joke, but some people have been taking it very seriously. Elephants were used for hundreds of years in Thailand’s logging industry(伐木业). They moved wood from forests in areas where there were no roads. At the beginning of this century, when the forests of Thailand began to quickly disappear, the government put a stop to logging. All of a sudden, many elephants in Thailand no longer had a way to make a living. Some elephants were treated badly. Others had to try to live on thei r own and couldn’t find enough food to eat. There were once tens of thousands of elephants in Thailand. Today, there are less than five thousand. When two Russian American artists, Vitaly Komar and Alex Melamid, first heard about the troubled elephants in Thailand, they knew that something had to be done to forever change the way people treated Thai elephants. Then, they came up with an idea to help these elephants. Komar and Melamid visited elephant camps in Thailand and began to show the elephant trainers how to teach the elephants to paint. At first, the trainers had to guide the elephants’ trunks. The elephants became more comfortable doing this with practice—and lots of sweet snacks—and finally started to paint on their own. The strange idea that Komar and Melamid had to save the elephants actually began to work. They even helped

2018年中考英语试卷分类解析：阅读理解之环保问题(含答案)

环境保护 (2017〃浙江衢州)D Heritage(遗产)is traditional customs, culture and beliefs(信仰). We use the world “heritage” in many different ways. People talk about their family heritage, their city’s heritage, and their country’s heritage. Today, heritage is changing. The Internet connects people around the world. In many ways this is a good thing, because we can learn about the heritage of other countries, and we can show our own heritage to the world. However, some people worry that traditional heritage is disappearing. Think about it. In many ways, countries are becoming more and more alike(相似的). In just about every country around the world, you can find MacDonald’s, Nike Shoes, Starbucks coffee, and American movies. Some people think this is a good change, and others don’t like it. You can decide whether or not you think it’s a good thing. However, everyone wants to protect their traditional heritage, and sometimes this is hard. For example, when a new MacDonald’s opens in your town, a traditional restaurant might have to close. This is why heritage protection is so important. Heritage protection is a simple idea. It means keeping your country’s or your city’s heritage alive. People do this in many ways. The biggest part of heritage protection is probably preserving(保护)old buildings. A few other examples of heritage protection are making sure your children speak your traditional language, and teaching your heritage to children. The world is changing very fast. This change brings a lot of good things. But as the world is changing, it is important to remember the heritage of our parents and our grandparents. 42. The examples in the second paragraph are used to__________. A. describe people’s love for heritage[来源:中%^国教育出~版网#&] B. show the importance of heritage

阅读理解 （一）（2017年荆州中考） A People in Los Angeles are known for their love of cars. The city is very large, and its public transportation is slow. So people drive everywhere. But now, a group of bicyclists are trying to get people out of their cars and on bikes. Devon Fitzgerald says he has to be careful when he rides his bike in the streets. “A lot of people are in a rush, and it's very difficult to keep careful, for they would rather care for their speed than your safety.” Although riding a bike to work can be dangerous, he prefers it to a car. “It's much simpler than driving a car.

Or you can easily get into an accident. " To make bicycling safer, some people who live and work near each other are riding to work together, which they call a "bike train". Nona Varnado helped create the group L. A. Bike Trains. "You're in a big group. If you're afraid of riding alone, you can now ride with experienced riders.

2018年中考英语任务型阅读专题复习(含答案)

任务型阅读 （一） A little stream(小溪) ran down from a high mountain through many villages and forests. Then it reached a desert. “I went through so many difficulties. I should have no problem crossing the desert,” she thought. As she started, she found herself slowly vanishing(消失)into the sand. After many tries, she still failed. “Maybe I can’t reach the ocean,” she said sadly to herself. At this time, a deep voice said, “If wind can cross the desert, so can a river.” It was the voice of the desert. But the little stream answered, “That’s because the wind can fly, but I can not.” “That’s because you can’t give up what you are. Let yourself evaporate(蒸发)into the wind and it can take you across me,” said the desert. “Give up what I am now? No! No!” The little stream could not accept this idea. “The wind can carry the vapor(蒸汽)across the desert and let it leave as rain. The rain will form a river again,” said the desert. “And whether you’re a river or vapor, your nature never changes.” After hearing this, the little stream went into the open arms of the wind. It carried her to the next stage of her life. The course of our lives is like the experience of the little stream. If you want to go through difficulties in your life to head for success, you should also change the way you are. Answer the following questions according to what you read. 1. Did the little stream want to reach the ocean or the desert at last? ____________________________________________ 2. Was the little stream able to cross the desert at first? ____________________________________________ 3.Who gave the advice to the little stream? ____________________________________________ 4.What did the little Stream do after hearing the desert's words? ____________________________________________ 5.
