专题2025中考备考初中英语阅读理解人与社会主题语境相关真题精选专项训练 A The scientific method is used for simple experiments that students may do in the classroom or very difficult experiments that scientists are doing all over the world.It is a way of thinking that helps you to avoid drawing incorrect conclusions. There are usually four steps in the scientific method，including observation（观察），hypothesis（假设），experiment，and conclusion.The steps may not always be completed in the same order，but the first step is usually observation and asking a question about your observation.For example，you had a sick stomach，and ate a candy bar.An hour later，you observed that you felt much better.Here，you can ask a question，such as，"What makes a sick stomach feel better？" The second step is to state a possible answer to the question，or a hypothesis，such as， "______"A good hypothesis includes three things：The explanation for the observations，it is able to be tested，and it will usually predict new outcomes or conclusions. The third step is the experiment，to test the hypothesis.An experiment is a test which will either challenge or support the hypothesis.The hypothesis will then be true or false. The final step is to think about what happened when you tested the hypothesis and draw a conclusion.The conclusion will either clearly support the hypothesis or it will not.If the results support the hypothesis，a conclusion can be written and you can share it with the rest of the world.If it does not support the hypothesis，you may choose to change the hypothesis or write a new one based on what was learned during the experiment. 1.Which sentence best expresses the main idea of the passage？ ______ A.

B That night，July 11，2022，Nick Bostic was driving down the streets of Lafayette，Indiana，when he found a two-story house was on fire. Flames（火焰） were climbing up the front porch.Without pausing for a moment to think about the danger，Bostic stopped his car and ran from the back door into the burning building，which belongs to the Barrett family. Bostic had just started climbing the stairs when he looked up and saw four faces appear from a room at the top of the stairs and look down at him，their eyes wide."Your house is on fire，you need to go!"Bostic yelled. Bostic hurried the four girls into the fresh air."Anybody else in there？"Bostic asked. "Kaylani is in there!We can't find her!"Seionna，the eldest of the girls，screamed，referring to her six-year-old sister.Without hesitating，Bostic ran back inside. By now，the whole side of the house was in flames Bostic went upstairs.He searched every bedroom.No kid.The smoke was thick now.He lifted his T-shirt，trying to cover his mouth and nose when he heard the sound of crying，from the dark smoke below. Bostic felt about in the blackness and beat，moving downstairs toward the sound.Then suddenly Kaylani was in front of him，Bostic quickly lifted the girl into his arms.Where is the front door？Bostic remembered seeing a window on the side of the house where the fire hadn't reached.

The lions dance to the beat of a drum (鼓). Of course, they are not real lions. They are dancers in lion costumes (服饰). Lion dancing first started in China centuries ago. It is meant to bring good luck in the coming year. Usually, a lion is made up of two dancers. One dancer controls the head. The other controls the tail. “I think of it as a sport,” says Anthony Huang, aged 16. He is a member of the New York Chinese Freemasons Athletic Club. Anthony acts as the lionˈs head. It can weigh 20 pounds. Lion dancing is important to Anthony. “This tradition really lifts me up,” he says. In the past, lion dancing was performed mostly by men. But it is different today. Lion Dance Me is a lion dancing group in San Francisco, California. There are boys and girls on its team. They dance together. “Anyone can take up lion dancing. You have to believe that you can do it,” says Ananda Tang-Lee, a 17-year-old girl. Lion dancing will continue to evolve. But a teamˈs sense of community will never change.     “We call it a family,” Ananda says, “Itˈs really great, because we always have each otherˈs backs.” 9.Why do people perform lion dancing? A. To sell lion-dancing costumes. B. To wish for a lucky new year. C. To protect the lions in the wild. D. To show skills of playing the drum. 10.Which role does Anthony play in lion dancing? A.

They live together in a big family. D. They support each other like a family. D The night sky is our earliest library.There,we stored our knowledge,and passed it down around the fire,before we invented the written word. I remember going to the local university for an astronomy（天文学） night when I was a child.That night,I saw Saturn,one of the planets,and its rings with my own eyes for the first time.The rings shone bright against the blackness of space and suddenly the universe（宇宙） wasn't something that you only read about or imagined in your head.It was right there,and you were a part of it.That moment is priceless. While starlight is good,light pollution here on Earth can be a real problem.For the past 200 years or so,we have used too much electricity（电） to make the night brighter.However,brighter doesn't usually mean better,especially when a lot of that light shines up into the sky where no one needs it. Luckily,some cities have taken actions,like setting up new downward-directing lights along the streets.I hope that more cities will join in and continue the practice of controlling unnecessary lighting,so that more of us can watch the night sky in a way humans have for thousands of years. 13.What is the night sky compared to？ ______ A. A book. B. The earth. C. A library. D. The universe. 14.How did the writer find the astronomy night？ ______ A. It opened his eyes. B. It controlled his mind. C. It was a real problem. D. It took him too much time. 15.What does the writer hope for？ ______ A. A brighter night. B. Less use of lighting. C. More personal space. D. A better education. E When the famous scientist Albert Einstein was 16 years old，he imagined himself riding alongside a beam （束） of light.He used this picture in mind to help him when working out the"theory of relativity （相对论）"."Imagination is more important than knowledge，" said Einstein. Daydreaming，called "thought experiments"by Einstein，can make you have wild imaginings，like flying around in space.It lets your mind walk slowly around ideas，memories and experiences that aren't happening right now.It means thinking ahead to a holiday or remembering how much you enjoyed a birthday party.According to China's health authorities （权威机构），daydreaming for a while each day can improve your health and creativity. Disappearing into a daydream lets your mind escape when things are difficult.It helps you deal with worries and fears.For example，imagining how you're going to speak up in class is like practicing the scene in your head，which can make you feel calmer.Daydreaming also inspires creativity and lets you find new worlds where there are no limits （限制） to what you can do or who you are.Guo Qiang，an expert in thoughts and feelings，thinks we should all make time to daydream."Thinking for pleasure can be a powerful tool to shape our feelings."he said. However，try not to let your mind be absent when you need to focus（聚焦） in class or cross the road.Instead，find a time when you don't have to focus on anything，like going for a walk or brushing your teeth.Guo suggests you can start by focusing on a happy memory or imagining a future success，like scoring a goal in the World Cup. To encourage creativity，think about interesting ideas and see where your mind takes you.Research shows that people often come up with more solutions to problems after they've taken a break.So next time you're stuck with homework，stop for a moment and see where your daydreams take you. 16.Which writing skill is used in paragraph 1？ ______ A. Giving an example. B. Raising a question. C. Listing numbers. D. Comparing facts. 17.Daydreaming can make people ______ . A. fly around B. walk slowly C. think freely D. be absent-minded 18.Guo Qiang first suggests ______ . A. escaping from the hard time B. looking for new worlds C. finding time to imagine D. focusing on success 19.What is mentioned in paragraph 4？ ______ A. The steps to daydream. B. The things to daydream of. C. The reasons for daydreaming. D. The meanings of daydreaming. 20.Daydreaming is talked about ______ . A. to remind people to have a mind break B. to suggest living at the moment C. to find solutions to homework problems D. to show a science research result F       What makes you fall asleep? Tine main cause is your body clock, a time-keeper inside your body. But how to control and use your body clock? Scientists suggested having a shower before bed. Jumping into the shower around an hour before bed could mean you sleep better.       A warm shower helps you relax, and then after it warns you up, your core (核心) body temperature drops. This encourages you to fall asleep more quickly and sleep more soundly. A study in 2019 said that a water temperature of 40℃ to 42.4℃ produces the best-quality (最优质的) sleep. After people lie down, most of them take about 20 minutes to fall asleep. However, if you have a shower one to two hours before going to bed, you will fall asleep 10 minutes earlier.       Core body temperature drops naturally before you sleep, then drops further during the night. It rises again as you wake up. It is thought that taking a warm shower will speed up the drop in temperature before bed, as it brings blood to the surface of the body, and then the heat is given off. 21.What did scientists suggest people do before bed to sleep better? A. Sleep an hour earlier. B. Jump into bed. C. Have a warm shower. D. Set a time clock. 22.What does the underlined word "soundly" probably mean? A. Deeply. B. Poorly. C. Kindly. D. Slowly. 23.Which water temperature produces the best-quality sleep according to the study? A. 44.2℃. B. 41.5℃. C. 36.4℃. D. 32.4℃. 24.In which part of a newspaper can you find the text? A. Art. B. Weather. C. History. D. Health. G The Search-for-Lost-Birds list has come to public attention recently.It lists ten kinds of birds that have not been seen in the wild for at least fifteen years.The list is calling on people to search for the rarest（最珍稀的） birds on Earth. There could be several reasons for the long disappearances of the birds on the list.Maybe there have been no studies in areas where they live.Maybe people don't know where or how to find them.Maybe there are changes to their natural homes because of human activities. This year,four expeditions（考察队） are planning to find eight kinds of birds.If any of these lost birds are found,ways can be found to protect them and help their populations grow.This has happened with birds like the Madagascar pochard.The number of this once-lost kind of bird is now increasing. 25.How many kinds of birds are on the Search-for-Lost-Birds list？ ______ A.
