初三英语阅读理解20练 1. The worst tourist in the world is Nicholas Scottie of San-Francisco. Once he flew from the U.S. to his hometown in Italy to see someone at home. The plane made one-hour stop to get oil at Kennedy Airport of New York. As he thought he had arrived home. Mr. Scottie got off the plane. He thought he was in Rome. When nobody was there to meet him, Mr. Scottie thought maybe they were held up by heavy traffic. While looking for their address, Mr. Scottie found that the old “Rome” had changed a lot. Many old buildings were replaced by high modern ones. He also found that many people spoke English instead of Italian and that many streets were written in English. Mr. Scottie knew very little English, so he asked a policeman the way to the bus station. He happened to meet a policeman who was also born in Italy and answered him in the same language. After twelve hour’s traveling round on a bus, the driver handed him over to a second policeman. He asked the policeman why the Rome police employed so many people as policemen speaking English instead of Italian. Mr. Scottie did not believe he was in New York when he was told so. To get him on a plane back to San Francisco, he was sent to the airport in a police car with sirens (警报) on. “Look,” said Scottie to his interpreter (翻译), “I know I’m in Italy. That’s how they drive.” 1. When Mr. Scottie arrived at the airport, nobody met him because _______. A. he was in New York B. he was not in Rome C. policeman could help him D. both A and B 2.

Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is a little bit cold. As the world has changed, the world has had many different meanings. “Cool” can be used to express feelings of interest in almost anything. When you see a famous car in the street, maybe you will say, “It’s cool.” You may think, “He’s so cool,” when you see your favourite footballer. We all maximize (扩大) the meaning of “cool”. You can use it instead of many words such as “new” or “surprising”. Here’s an interesting story we can use to show the way the word is used. A teacher asked her students to write about the waterfall (瀑布) they had visited. On one student’s paper was just the one sentence, “It’s so cool.” Maybe he thought it was the best way to show what he saw and felt. But the story also shows a scarcity (缺乏) of words. Without “cool”, some people have no words to show the same meaning. So it is quite important to keep some credibility (可信性). Can you think of many other words that make your life as colourful as the word “cool”? I can. And I think they are also very cool. 6. We know that the word “cool” has had ________. A. only one meaning B. no meanings C. many different meanings D. the same meaning 7. In the passage, the word “express” means “____________.” A. see B. show C. know D. feel 8.

Worlds like these are planets. But there are other stars, other suns, not only thousands of them, but millions of them. Do different stars have planets? We can see the planets round our own sun. but we haven’t been anymore. The stars are too far away from us. Stars give out light, but the planets don’t have any light of their own. So we can’t see them. They are too far, and too dark. Still, we can tell that some stars have planets. While a big planet goes round, it pulls its star to one side. And sometimes we can see this. Then we know that the star has a planet. For example, Barnard’s Star is a small red star. And it is the quickest star in the universe. But sometimes it moves slower, and then quicker again. We have known Bernard’s Star for many years, and now we are sure it has a planet. 16. A star is a large body in the universe. It _________.

We were going to play against a team from a country school. They didn’t come until the last minute. They looked worse than we had thought. They were wearing dirty blue trousers and looked like farm boys. We sat down for a rest. We felt that we didn’t need any practice against a team like that. The game began. One of us got the ball and he shot a long pass to our forward （前锋）. From out of nowhere a boy in an old T-shirt stopped the ball and with beautiful style （姿势）he shot and got two points. Then another two points in a minute. Soon the game was all over. We were beaten by the country team. After that, we thought a lot. We certainly learned that even though your team is very good, you can’t look down upon the others and still need to do you best.

Long long ago people made fires from lightning(闪电)。 But they had to keep the fire burning, for they couldn’t start it again if there was no lightning. Later, they found out hitting two piece of stone together could make a spark (火花). The spark could fire dry leaves. In this way they could make the fire again if it went out. Them people also learned to make a fire by rubbing. They made a hole on a big piece of wood and put a smaller stick into the hole. They turned the stick again and again. After a few minutes they got a fire. As years went by, people learned other ways to make a fire. Sometimes they used the heat from sun. they held a piece of glass in the right way and made a piece of paper on fire. About two centuries ago, people began to make matches (火柴). Matches brought people a quick and easy way to make fire. Today matches are still being used, but people have more new ways to make fires. One of them is to use an electric fire starter.

French and American doctors have done an operation (手术) together in which the doctors were outside the operating room. This kind of operation is known as robotic operation. Doctor Marescaux did the operation in an office in New York City last month, while a sixty-eight-year-old woman patient was in a hospital in Strasbourg, France. A doctor in Strasbourg got the patient ready. He placed medical tools and a small video camera in her stomach area (谓部). Doctor Marescaux in New York watched the patient on a video screen. Then he used the computer to send messages to the robot machine. The robot moved the tools that cut the woman’s gallbladder (胆囊) away. The woman got well soon after the operation and left the hospital two days later. Experts say the main problem with such a robotic operation is based on high-speed telecommunications (通讯系统) between the doctor and the robot. Technology must be able to send a doctor’s order to a robot to move the tool quickly. Experts also say a successful robotic operation will improve an operation. For example, the robot can make such smaller movements (动作) than a person can. A robot machine can turn tools in ways that a doctor’s hand cannot. Doctors say such a robotic operation will make possible safer and better operations in the future. They say it will improve doctor training. It will also mean that doctors could do an operation on people in dangerous places far away. And it could mean that people could have operations done by top doctors without having to travel to the city where the doctors work. 36. The underlined phrase “ robotic operation” means “________.” A. a special kind of robot invented by doctors B. something done to mend a robot. C. an operation done by French and American doctors D. an operation done far away with the help of a robot. 37. We use the robot in the operation because _________. A. it can send messages in a high speed B. even a top doctor can’t do the operation himself C. it can make the operation safer and better D. operations can be done without and doctors. 38.

Which of the following is NOT right? A. Robotic operation has been used in the USA. B. Robotic operation is good for doctor training C. Experts speak highly of robotic operation. D. The robot is used to watch the patient clearly. 40. What’s the best title for this passage? A. An Operation B. Robotic Operation C. How to Do A Robotic Operation D.

About the year 1900, a dart-haired boy named Charlie Chaplin was often seen waiting outside the back entrances of London theatres. He looked thin and hurry. He was hoping to get work in show business. He could sing and dance, and above all, he knew how to make people laugh. But he couldn’t get work and therefore wandered about the city streets. Sometimes he was sent away to a home for children who had no parents. But twenty years later, this same Chaplin became the greatest, best-known, and best-loved comedian (喜剧演员) in the world. Any regular visitor to the cinema, must have seen some of Charlie Chaplin’s films. People everywhere have sat and laughed at them until the tears ran down their faces. Even people who don’t understand English can enjoy his films, because they are mostly silent. It isn’t what he says that makes us laugh. His comedy doesn’t depend upon (依靠) words or language. It depends upon little actions which mean the thing to people all over the word.

Key: 1—5 CADDD 15． In general (一般来说) people talk about two groups of colours: warm colours and cool colours. Scientists think that there are also two groups of people: people who prefer warm colours and people who prefer cool colours. The warm colours are red, orange and yellow. Where there are warm colours and a lot of light, people usually want to be active. People think that red example is exciting sociable (善交际的) people, those who like to be with others like red. The cool colours are green, blue and purple. These colours unlike warm colours, are relaxing. Where there are cool colours, people are usually quiet. People who like to spend time alone often prefer blue. Red may be exciting but one scientist says that time seems to pass more slow in a room with warm colours than in a room with cool colours. He suggested that a warm colour such as red or orange, is a good colour for a living room or a restaurant. People who are relaxing or eating don’t want time to pass quickly. Cool colours are better for offices of factories as the people who work there want time to pass quickly. Scientist don’t know why people think some colours are warm and other colours are cool.

Every country is trying to find ways to turn salt water into fresh. Why aren't there many factories like the Symi factory? In some places, the sun isn't hot enough, or it doesn't shine every day. In these places other ways to heating(加热) sea water can be used. These ways cost more money, but they work faster than the sun. By boiling(煮沸) sea water with high heat，a lot of fresh water can be made quickly. But heating is not the only way to get fresh water from salt water. Other ways are tried. One way is freezing(冷冻). The fresh part of salt water freezes first. To get fresh water, the pieces of ice are taken out. Which way is best? The one that gives the most water for the least money. It may be a different way for each place. Symi's way seems very good for small, hot places. It doesn't make very much water at a time. But the factory is easy to build and cost little.

The world is not only hungry, but it is also thirsty for water. This may seem strange to you, since nearly 70% of the earth's surface is covered with water. But about 97% of that is sea water, or salt water. Man can only drink and use the other 3%——the fresh water from rivers, lakes, underground, and other sources. And we can not even use all of that. Even worse, some of it has been made dirty. However, as things stand today, this fresh water is still enough for us. But our need for water is becoming larger and larger quickly——almost day by day. We should take steps to do with this problem now and in this way we can get away from a serious world wide water shortage (缺少) later on. We all have to learn how to stop wasting our valuable water. One of the first steps is to develop ways of reusing it. Today in most l arge cities, water is used only once and then sent out into a sewer system(下水道). From there it returns to sea or runs into underground places. But even if every large city reused its water, we still would not have enough. All we'd have to do to make use of sea water in the world is to remove the salt. If we take these steps we'll be in no danger of drying up. 16. The world is thirsty for water because . A. man hasn't got enough food to eat B. we haven't got enough fresh water C. only 70% of the earth's surface is water D. more water is sent into sewer systems 17.The underlined word valuable means . A. much and saltyB. fresh and enoughC. dear and usefulD. clean and helpful 18. What should we do if we want to have enough fresh water? (a) Make full use of the sea water. (b) Carry salt water into lakes or rivers. (c) Try to save the fresh water as much as possible. (d) Do our best to use the water again. (e) Drink and use all the water on the earth's surface. A.(c)and(e)B.(a)and(d)C.(a),(c)and(d) D.(b),(d)and(e) 19.The best but the most difficult way to solve (解决) the water problem of the world is to . A. remove the salt from sea water B. make the water in cities clean C. take water from underground D. make the need for water smaller 20. What's the best title (标题) for this passage? A. The Importance of the WaterB. The World's Water Problem C. The Thirsty World D. Fresh Water and Sea Water Keys:16.Ｂ17.C18.C19.Ａ20.Ｂ 22. Last July, Mr Johnson's 12yearold car died on California's Santa Ana Freeway. It was an hour before the sun went down, and he was 25 miles from home. He couldn't reach anyone to pick him up, so he decided to take a bus. Not knowing the routes(路线), he thought he'd just head east. A bus pulled up, and he asked the driver how far she was going, "Four more lights", she said. There was another bus he could take from there. “This clearly was going to be a long night." Mr Johnson said to himself. She dropped Mr Johnson off at the end of her route and told him which bus to look for. After waiting 30 minutes, he began to think about a very expensive taxi ride home. Then a bus pulled up. There was no lighted number above its windshield(挡风玻璃). It was out of service. But the door opened, and he was surprised to find that it was the same driver. “I just can't leave you here," she said. “This isn't the nicest place. I'll give you a ride home." “You'll drive me home in the bus?" he asked, perplexed(困惑的). “No, I'll take you in my car," she said. “It's a long way," he protested. “Come on," she said. “I have nothing else to do." As they drove from the station in her car, the driver began telling him a story. A few days earlier, her brother had run out of gas. A good Samaritan picked him up, took him to a service station and then back to his car. “I'm just passing the favor along," she said. When Mr Johnson gave her money as a thankyou, she wouldn't hear of it. “That wouldn't make it a favor," she said. “Just do something nice for somebody. Pass it along." 21.

A. he didn't know the routes B. no driver would give him a ride C. he perhaps would have to take a taxi D. he wondered how long he had to wait for the next bus 22. According to (根据)the story, the place where Mr Johnson waited for the second bus was . A. a little darkB. neither quiet nor niceC. a little unsafeD. neither clean nor beautiful 23.

A. she did as her brother had told herB. she happened to go in the same direction(方向) C. she wanted to get more money from him D. she wanted to do something good for other people 25. What can we learn from the story? A. We should only help the person who helped us. B. We should remember him if someone helped us. C. We should help other people as the bus driver did. D.
