2019年罗渡中学中考英语：阅读理解优编题（8）附答案
第一篇
（2019中考日常生活类训练）
Ted, my little brother, is in Grade One. Last Friday he came back from school with a letter. The letter was from his teacher. “I got a red flower today. Could you please sign this note?” he said to mum. The note showed that he had been talking in class.
Ted hardly gets top scores in his school work. The best he gets is “OK”, but he often gets “You can do better than this.” Mum knows what it means. She tells me “You can do better than this” means “Extremely bad” in China.
In the USA, teachers never say anything too bad about their students, even if the students are making trouble in class or not working hard enough. The worst they might say is “Please be nicer tomorrow”. Many parents are satisfied with a B-grade for each subject.
But things in Chinese schools are quite different. Parents have high expectations for their children. I sometimes felt that my second-grade cousin spend more time on homework than I did when I was 6th grade in the US! Yet his parents and teachers didn’t think he worked hard enough.
Is it too strict in China? Or is it not strict enough in the USA? Maybe both are true.
1.Why did Ted come home with a letter last Friday?
A. Because the teacher wanted to visit his mother.
B. Because he did something wrong.
C. Because the teacher was happy with his progress.
D. Because the teacher thought he was too lazy.
2.If a student in the USA gets “OK” in his schoolwork, it means ________.
A. he gets top scores B. he gets medium scores
C. he gets extremely bad scores D. he gets the worst
8
scores
3. American parents will be ________ when their children get a B-grade in their school.
A. excited B. sad C. angry D. happy
4. The underlined words “high expectations” in this passage means “________”.
A. 很高的待遇 B. 很多的自由 C. 很高的期望 D. 很多的关爱
5. The writer mainly wants to tell us ________.
A. the differences between Chinese education and American education
B. Chinese students are better than American students
C. American parents are not strict enough with their children
D. what’s the best way to educate child

第五篇
Imagine one day, the water taps(水龙头) in your house stop running. You have to buy water from shops. And still there isn’t enough for everyone. Your mother has to save the family’s shower water to do other things. Would you be able to stand that kind of life?
Probably not. But that’s what kids in Yemen are experiencing. Experts said Yemen is going to be the first country in the world to run out of water. According to a report, the capital, Sana, will run out of drinking water as early as 2025.
Because of the shortage, the government often cuts the water supply(供应). Hannan, an 18-year-old from Lahej, told Times: “In a good week we’ll have a water supply all week. But then the following week there will be water only for a day or two.”
Hannan said only rich people have enough water to use. They can buy water from the shops or from the water trucks. Private companies own the trucks. They travel around the city every day to sell water—at very high prices. “A lot of people can’t afford it,” she said.
The average (平均) person in Yemen uses 100 to 200 cubic（立方）meters of water per year. That is far below the international water poverty(贫困) line of 1,000 cubic meters.
The government is thinking of making use of seawater. But it will cost a lot and it

试题分析：这篇短文给我们讲述了现在水资源的缺乏，尤其提到了也门这个国家，根据一项报告，也门的首都萨那到2025年的时候，就将没有饮用水了。也门政府也正在想办法解决这个问题。
1．A细节理解题。短文第二段中提到了Yemen这个国家，然后根据According to a report, the capital, Sana, will run out of drinking water as early as 2025.可知，Yemen的首都是Sana，因此选A。

2025.的这句话可知，根据一项报告，也门的首都萨那将在2025年用尽饮用水，也就是到2025年的时候，就没有饮用水了。故选B。
3．B词义猜测题。本题要求我们猜测shortage这个单词的意思，根据这个单词我们找到短文的第三段，Because of the shortage, the government often cuts the water supply，政府减少水供应，可见也门这个国家的水出现了短缺。shortage短缺，故应选B。
