2019年中考英语:阅读理解优编题(五)附答案
第一篇
(2019中考训练题)
Dear Mr Scott,
I expect you may be slightly surprised to receive a letter from your next-door neighbor, but I have to raise a theme that it will be easier for me to discuss in writing. You may have noticed that I have a line of apple trees running along the fence(栅栏)that separates our two gardens. You may also have felt happy when you see your two children sitting on your grass by the fence. And you may also have noticed that my apple trees bend over the fence and seem to look down at your children with interest. It is only natural that your children should sometimes seem to return that interest. And it is quite legal(合法的)for them to show that interest by picking all the apples that hang over on your side of the fence. But to tell you the truth, Mr Scott, I am tired of seeing your children, day after day, destroy the branches of every one of my apple trees. And it seems that a war has been fought on one side of my apple trees. Besides, I am more tired of waking up on these fine autumn mornings to find even the apples on MY side of the fence much less in number. I know this too is the work of your children, since last night I was woken at midnight by the noise they were making when climbing one of my trees, and (as they may have told you) I drove them away.
Yours sincerely,
Becky Aldrin

And it is quite legal(合法的)for them to show that interest by picking all the apples that hang over on your side of the fence.这两句话站在对方的角度想问题,这些语言都让我们能够看出Becky是很礼貌、很认真的讲述问题,故应选A。

Greg Woodburn, a university student, spends a lot of time cleaning sports shoes. Some of them once belonged to him; some belonged to his friends. But soon the shoes will have new owners, poor children in the USA and 20 other countries, thanks to Greg’s Share Our Soles(鞋底) (S. O. S) charity.
Greg was a high school running star in a small town in California. He had to stop running for months because his knee was injured. “I started thinking about all the things I got from running, the health, the friendships and the confidence, ” he says. “And I realized there are children who don’t even have shoes. ”
Greg collected his own sports shoes and then called his friends and the town. His aim was to have 100 pairs by Christmas 2006. When the number climbed to more than 500 pairs, Greg knew that he could collect sports shoes all the year round.
Now he has set up collection boxes in his town. So far, S. O. S has collected and donated more than 3, 000 pairs of shoes. And Greg has cleaned almost all of them. “People think of it as dirty work, ” he says, “but I like doing it, because I feel happy

when I’m doing it. It’s not work I want to pass on to someone else. ”
In just three years, Greg has started three branches(分部) of S. O. S and there are more and more sports shoes.
For many poor children receiving the shoes means opportunity. Two young boys in southern California used to go to school on alternate days(隔日) because they both shared a pair of shoes. They were too big for one boy and too small for the other. Thanks to S. O. S, each brother received his own pair of shoes. The boys now go to school every day. When they graduate, they say they will help others, just as Greg helped them.
1. Who will Greg donate these sports shoes to?

5. What did the two boys in southern California learn from Greg?

参考答案:
1. He will donate them to poor children in the USA and 20 other countries. /Poor children in the USA and 20 other countries.
2. He realized there’re children who don’t even have shoes. /There’re children who don’t even have shoes.
3. S. O. S has collected and donated more than 3, 000 pairs of shoes so far. /More than 3, 000 pairs of shoes.
