(2018·四川广安中考)People read books less often in these days. With the invention of radio, television and most recently, the Internet and computer games, it seems that reading books is no longer a popular activity. However, I believe that books are an important part of our lives.

Books offer an outstanding wealth of learning and at a cheaper price than taking a

course. Books can make people cleverer, because heavy readers have greater knowledge of how things work and who or what people were.

Everything in today's society requires reading. Imagine trying to do something as simple as reading the directions on a medicine bottle without good reading skills. Someone could not understand them and become very sick or even die.

Even something as simple as walking or driving through the city could become very dangerous without enough reading. Sometimes, you must be able to understand what is written and explain the meaning of them.

Some people say that reading is a waste of time and we can do better things with our time. Even if we don't read books, we still read every day, and reading books can strengthen(加强) our abilities. Reading is one of the greatest things we can do in our spare time.

With a book, you can travel anywhere you want, do anything you want, and talk to anyone you want. Reading is very important in our lives, no matter your age. So I think people should read books.

penicillin(青霉素). It kills germs. By killing germs, it saves lives. Suppose you are

This is how penicillin was found. But here's the real miracle(奇迹). There are thousands of kinds of molds. But only one kind can kill staph. The mold must have fallen into the dish a few days before.

China during the 18th century. It is a scenic(戏剧的) art integrating music, performance, literature, aria, and face painting.Theatrical art forms in many other countries do not present singing, dancing and spoken parts in one single drama. An

(2018·湖北宜昌中考)Is there an important exam right around the corner? You might be starting to fear, thinking that there's no way for you to get a good grade

because o f the little time left to study. This is something all students may worry about.

But you should accept the fact that you have to take the exam no matter how much you want to avoid it.

(2017·北京中考)

Buying Is Doing?

How important is shopping to you? How much time do you spend buying things? And how much time do you spend organizing these things in your home? In the future，how much time will you spend in movie theaters, at amusement parks, at shopping malls, or at convenience stores? When you add it all up，you will probably see you spend a lot of your life consuming(消费) things.Consuming products is not necessarily bad.However, if we spend too much time doing it, we should look at it carefully.

Imagine that you have a week off from school.You don't have to go to

class.However, in this week, you cannot spend any money—no shopping，no movies，no eating out.How would you spend your time? What things would bring you happiness? Perhaps you would take a walk with your best friend.Perhaps you would help a child read.Or you might spend time with your family.

When we look back，it is likely that non-consuming experiences like these will be our most important memories.Why? Non-c onsuming activities are active, not passive.They don't come in a package.You make the experience yourself.For example, each person who reads to a child will have a different experience.The experience changes with the reader, the child, and the book. Similarly, when you have a conversation with a friend，you are actively creating an experience.The conversation that you have with your friend cannot be experienced or recreated by anyone else.However，if you watch a movie with a friend，you will each have a

packaged experience.It requires no action and little interaction between the two of you.

The environment we live in encourages us to have packaged experiences.We feel that we must consume because we believe that buying is doing.However, we can start a personal revolution(变革) against consumerism.How? By consuming less.We can ask ourselves what experiences bring us the greatest satisfaction.Then we can organize our lives so that we have more of those kinds of experiences.

1．If consuming products takes too much time, we should .

A．spend less money

B．think about it carefully

C．organize our things

D．go to convenience stores

2．According to the passage, the writer believes that .

A．we can say no to consumerism by consuming less

B．buying things can bring us the greatest satisfaction

C．the environment seldom influences our shopping choices

D．consuming experiences will be our most important memories

3．What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage?

A．To introduce some ways of enjoying our spare time.

B．To encourage people to have more active experiences.

C．To explain reasons behind people's shopping behavior.

D．To share his personal experience in consuming products.

【英语】中考英语阅读理解经典题型带答案一、初三英语阅读理解（含答案详细解析） 1．根据短文理解，选择正确答案。 A Some people think only school children do not agree with their parents, however, it is not true. Communication is a problem for parents and children of all ages. If it's hard for you to communicate with your parents, don't worry about it. Here are some suggestions for you to bridge generation gap（代沟）. Don't argue with your parents. Don't get to your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably won't consider your ideas if you are shouting at them You can't express（表达）yourself well if you are angry. Go to some place to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you don't think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter. Try to reach a compromise （和解）. Perhaps you and your parents disagree（有分歧） on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Michael's mother didn't agree with him about buying a car. They argued over it, but finally they came to a compromise. Michael bought the car, but only drove it on certain days. Of course your parents might refuse to compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect （尊敬） to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong. Talk about your values. The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care about, and why. Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life. A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person. It is worth having a try. （1）From the passage we know_______ have a communication problem.
