2025年中考英语复习阅读理解题专项集训之科技创新 一．阅读理解（共15小题） 1．（2023•巴中） Most of us spend all day at school or work.After a long and busy day，all we want to do is to return to a comfortable home.Smart technology can turn any home into a nicer place to live in. Smart homes have been around for some time.A company called Pico Electronics invented a type of technology called X10 in 1975.As the earliest smart home technology，it allows household devices（家用设备），such as lights and alarms，to communicate with each other by using radio waves. Of course，5 G network connectivity has made smart homes much more complicated（复杂的） than X10.Perhaps the most popular smart home technology is the voice﹣activated assistant.Users are allowed to communicate with almost any device in their homes simply by speaking a few words.This is especially convenient for children and people with disabilities，as the devices can help them finish tasks that would normally be too difficult. Common household devices can become"smart"as well.For example，smart fridges can create dinner recipes with the vegetables that are being kept inside. But smart homes are not just about convenience. They are also good for the environment.By regularly checking your energy use and automatically（自动地） turning off lights and other devices that you're using，smart homes can lower much electricity you use.Using less energy means that we use fewer natural resources（自然资源），which is good for the environment. （1）The earliest smart home technology is 　 　. A.X10 B.radio waves C.smart fridges D.5 G network （2）The underlined word "voice﹣activated" in Paragraph 3 means" 　 　"in Chinese. A.听觉的 B.声控的 C.视觉的 D.手动的 （3）A smart fridge can 　 　 according to the passage. A.order food online B.tell you how to cook C.help you keep things fresh D.create a dinner recipe （4）What does the underlined word "They" in Paragraph 5 refer to（指代）？ 　 　 A.Smart homes. B.Natural resources. C.Networks. D.Devices. （5）The passage is mainly about 　 　. A.5 G network can completely change the world B.smart homes make people live better C.smart fridges make people's lives convenient D.smart homes make people use more energy 2．（2023•明光市二模）Have you ever read the book The Sounds of Life：How Digital Technology Is Bringing Us Closer to the Worlds of Animals and Plants？It talks about how AI is helping us to understand animals. All around the animal kingdom，there are sounds that we can hardly pick up and decipher（破译）.Elephants，for example，talk with each other，but we can't hear—far below our human sound.Coral in the ocean also sends sound waves（波） to pull baby coral to safer areas to grow.This is surprising as coral doesn't have any ears!Scientists have placed listening equipment（设备） into these environments to pick up the sounds humans cannot hear. After the sounds are recorded，AI can study their meanings.For example，researchers used AI to translate bats'15，000 calls.They found that more than 60 percent were arguments about four things：food，sleep positions（姿势），personal space，and unwanted love. This technology can not only understand the animals but communicate back to them.For example，bees use dances to communicate.A research team in Germany，therefore，put the bee language AI system into a robot bee.They asked the robot to create a dance routine（路线） to tell the bees where the nectar（花蜜） was. （1）What is the book mainly about？ 　 　 A．How AI helps people do translations better. B．How AI helps people better understand animals. C．Why animals need help from human beings.

B．By asking a robot bee to teach them a new language. C．By creating a certain sound with AI. D．By making a robot bee tell the bees about the route by dancing. 3．（2023•临安区二模）ChatGPT，a new chatbot（chatting robot） model developed by a US company OpenAI，has quickly become a hit all over the world because of its advanced（高级的） abilities. The online chatbot has been trained a lot.It can have a human﹣like conversation answering questions，finding out mistakes and refusing any improper questions.Experts say it can be used to write essays and even solve computer coding （解码）. So far，it has been used by more than 1 million users after it first appeared on November 30，2022.Gina Homolka，a food blogger，got it to write a recipe for healthy chocolate﹣chip cookies.Riley Goodside，a film﹣maker，asked it to write the script（剧本） for a Seinfeld episode.Roxana Daneshjou，a researcher at Stanford University，asked it some professional medical questions.New research found that the chatbot GPT﹣3 was able to pass the final exam for the school's Master of Business Administration （MBA） program and even got a "B". However，there were other voices about the use of ChatGPT.A large number of students are using ChatGPT for homework assignments，creating challenges around cheating and learning.89% in the survey report that they have used it to help them finish the homework. In the United States，public schools in New York and Seattle have decided to stop ChatGPT from their devices and WiFi networks.In France，the famous Sciences Po university in Paris has also just announced a strict ban（禁令） on its use. Actually，it's too soon to say what kind of influence ChatGPT will have on our lives.It has along way to go and big ideas yet to discover.We will stumble along the way，but we are sure to learn a lot if using it wisely.After all，it has opened a door to the future. （1）Which of the following shows the structure（结构） of the passage？ （P＝Paragraph） 　 　 A． B． C． D． （2）How does the writer show the advanced abilities of ChatGPT in Paragraph 3 ？ 　 　 A．By listing reasons.

People who have hearing problems can't listen to music as normal people do，but they can feel it.Sound is made up of microphone vibrations.Deaf people can feel vibrations with the help of some part of the brain which normal people use for hearing. How does this amazing shirt work？Cute Circuit sets microphones around Newcastle United stadium to receive the sound of the people cheering and singing.A computer program analyses（分析） the sounds picked up and changes them into data（数据）.Then it will be sent to the football shirts.Little motors（发动机）inside the shirts would vibrate.Finally，the wearer will feel the sounds of the people. Deaf and hard﹣of﹣hearing people can also use the shirts to feel live music in the concert.The very deep musical sounds of instruments like drums and basses vibrate close to the stomach.Higher sounds from instruments like the violin，the guitar or the dizi vibrate higher around the neck and arms.Besides，the shirts can be used to feel sounds while playing video games. The football shirts were used for the first time at St James' Park，Newcastle United stadium，on April 13th.They will be available for deaf or hard﹣of﹣hearing fans at all Newcastle matches that are played at the stadium from now on. （1）Cute Circuit created the new football shirts to help 　 　.

After he left college，Steven worked as a video game designer.He worked there for only several months and then he went to India.He hoped that the trip would give him some new ideas and give him a change in life. Steven lived on a farm in California for a year after he returned from India. In 1975，he began to make a new type of computer.He designed the Apple Computer with his friend in his garage（车库）.He chose the name "Apple" just because it could help him to remember a happy summer he once spent in an apple tree garden.

Basketball star LeBron James，soccer great Cristiano Ronaldo and boxing champion Floyd Mayweather Jr.have all tried it.The therapy works like this.You take off everything but your underclothes.Then you put on warm socks and gloves and step into a room that looks like a shower，except your head sticks out the top.Once you're locked in，air cooled to below ﹣200℉（﹣129 ℃） fills the room.That's colder than Antarctica.You stay in for two to three minutes. Supporters believe the freezing air helps muscles get well faster and cut down soreness other body pain.After his first cryotherapy，Phil McKenzie，a professional football player，felt noticeably better.He told Scientific American， "I felt well right away.My sleep was better. "Soon，he was using the room four times a week.Those who support cryotherapy make all kinds of wild claims about its advantages.Supposedly that freezing air can increase focus，improve the color of skin，make you happier，lose weight，slow aging，and much more . Is there any evidence to support these unbelievable claims？No.Several small scientific studies have tried to prove whether the therapy can help muscles get well after exercise，with encouraging results.But there just isn't enough evidence to show that the therapy works.The good sides some people experience may just be the placebo effect.When a patient expects that the treatment will work well and he believes it will，he will probably think his illness has been cured after the treatment. The US Food drug administration has actually reported a warning about whole﹣body cryotherapy.It warns that the thing that is used to cool the room may make it difficult to breathe Frostbite is another possible risk，which is why patients who try the therapy wear gloves and socks What do you think？Is a chance for a better athletic performance worth the risk？ （1）When you are about to receive a whole﹣body cryotherapy，you 　 　.

Another set can have what they like，which school they go to，and how much time they spend on the computer. Big data can be used in many ways.The government uses it to understand how many people travel on buses or trains.This information is then used to make bus or train systems better.Some schools use big data to understand which children may need extra help in class.The teacher can then give certain students more help or support so those students can succeed in school.Companies use big data，too.It helps them understand who buys their products.For example，one company uses weather data to see when people eat the most ice cream. Big data can be used for good reasons.Some hospitals use big data to predict if a baby who is born too early will get sick.The hospital can then take extra steps to take care of that baby so he or she does not get sick.Big data can also be used for bad reasons.It can be used to predict which kinds of people are likely to break the law or hurt others，even if they have not done anything wrong. How can big data be used for good and bad things？It is because the computer programs used to look at big data and understand it are written by people.People think in a certain way.Because they think in a certain way，they build a model of those ideas.These ideas are then used to look at the data.Sometimes，these ideas are helpful for people or businesses.Other times，bad ideas can cause problems for certain groups of people. （1）This reading is about 　 　. A．what big data is and how it is used B．which schools and hospitals people like C．where important data is collected and stored D．how big data is controlled by governments and companies （2）One company uses weather information to 　 　.

A．sad and personal B．personal and scientific C．informative but silly D．scientific and informative. 15． Robots Are Now Teaching English! 　　Get ready.Robots are about to invade our classroom.From Korea to Japan to the United States，schools are putting English﹣speaking robots in front of their students.In Korea，robots are the new teaching assistants in a number of preschools and kindergartens.The young students say that the robots are fun，but are these children really learning anything？ 　　I don't think a computer will ever be able to do what a teacher does.A teacher has to be able to respond to students as individuals（个体）.▲　，and a teacher has to change his or her teaching style to fit the needs of the students.I seriously doubt that a computer will ever be able to do this even though the big data（数据） is widely used in the world. Sara says： 　　In my opinion，schools should spend money training human teachers rather than buying robots.Research shows that children learn more from real speakers than from recorded conversations. Keiko says： 　　I don't think you can learn a language without real human interaction.After all，robots cannot think as humans do. Hassan says： 　　Robots might be able to help people learn a language，but I don't think they should replace teachers because robots are just machines without human feelings. Nancy says： 　　I think robots might be very helpful in the classroom.A child might be less afraid to make a mistake in front of a robot than in front of a real person. （1）The underlined word "invade" in Para.1 probably means 　 　.

Smart homes have been around for some time.A company called Pico Electronics invented a type of technology called X10 in 1975.As the earliest smart home technology，it allows household devices（家用设备），such as lights and alarms，to communicate with each other by using radio waves. Of course，5 G network connectivity has made smart homes much more complicated（复杂的） than X10.Perhaps the most popular smart home technology is the voice﹣activated assistant.Users are allowed to communicate with almost any device in their homes simply by speaking a few words.This is especially convenient for children and people with disabilities，as the devices can help them finish tasks that would normally be too difficult. Common household devices can become"smart"as well.For example，smart fridges can create dinner recipes with the vegetables that are being kept inside. But smart homes are not just about convenience. They are also good for the environment.By regularly checking your energy use and automatically（自动地） turning off lights and other devices that you're using，smart homes can lower much electricity you use.Using less energy means that we use fewer natural resources（自然资源），which is good for the environment. （1）The earliest smart home technology is 　A　.

Big data can be used for good reasons.Some hospitals use big data to predict if a baby who is born too early will get sick.The hospital can then take extra steps to take care of that baby so he or she does not get sick.Big data can also be used for bad reasons.It can be used to predict which kinds of people are likely to break the law or hurt others，even if they have not done anything wrong. How can big data be used for good and bad things？It is because the computer programs used to look at big data and understand it are written by people.People think in a certain way.Because they think in a certain way，they build a model of those ideas.These ideas are then used to look at the data.Sometimes，these ideas are helpful for people or businesses.Other times，bad ideas can cause problems for certain groups of people. （1）This reading is about 　A　.

2.精准定位：在找到关键词后，考生需要快速浏览文章，找到与题目中询问的内容相关的段落。注意，题目中的细节可能会出现在不同的段落中，因此考生需要仔细阅读每个段落，尤其是包含关键词的句子及其周围的句子。 3.理解细节内容：在找到相关段落后，考生需要仔细阅读该段落的每一句话，理解其具体含义。对于其中的时间、地点、人物、事件、原因等细节信息，考生需要特别注意。同时，考生还需要注意段落中的逻辑关系，这有助于理解细节信息的真正含义。 4.对比选项：一般来说，正确答案会在原文中直接给出或者根据原文中的细节信息进行推理得到。考生要注意选项中的细节是否与原文一致，尤其要注意那些在原文中被特别强调的信息。 5.排除干扰项：有些选项可能会给出与原文相似但不完全一致的信息，或者给出一些原文中没有提到的信息。考生要学会识别这些干扰项，从而排除它们，找到正确答案。 7．主旨大意 【考点介绍】 主旨大意题是指考生需根据文章整体内容，概括出文章的主题、主旨或者核心观点。这类题目要求考生能够理解和把握文章的宏观结构，同时能够从文章中获取关键信息并对其进行归纳总结。主旨大意题在英语阅读考试中十分常见，且通常作为考试的最后一道题目出现。 【解题思路】 1.快速浏览全文：对文章的内容和结构有一个大致的了解。在阅读过程中，要注意抓住文章的关键段落和语句。 2.寻找主题句：主题句通常位于文章的开头或结尾，能够概括文章的主要内容。考生要学会识别主题句，它通常是具有概括性、总结性的句子，有时还可能包含文章的主题词。 3.归纳总结：如果文章没有明确的主题句，考生需要通过理解全文内容，归纳总结出文章的主旨大意。要特别注意那些反复出现的关键词和强调的内容。 4.比对选项：在确定主旨大意后，考生需要比对选项，找到最能概括文章主旨的那一个。注意选项中是否包含关键词、是否忠于原文、是否过于片面或绝对。 5.排除干扰项：有些选项可能会偏离文章主题，或者包含与文章无关的信息，考生要学会排除这些干扰项，找到最符合文章主旨的选项。 8．推理判断 【考点介绍】 推理判断题是英语阅读中的高级题型，它要求考生在理解文章的基础上，根据文章中的线索和提示，推断出作者未明确表述的观点或态度。推理判断题不仅要求考生对文章有深入的理解，还要求考生具备分析、推理和判断的能力。推理判断题通常会以两种形式出现：直接推理题和间接推理题。 【解题思路】 1.理解全文：首先，考生需要理解全文的大意和结构，了解作者的观点和态度。要特别注意那些表明作者观点或态度的关键词和语句，如形容词、副词、动词等。 2.抓住细节：要特别注意那些与文章主题相关的细节，如数据、事实、例子等。 3.分析推理：需要根据文章中的线索和提示，运用逻辑推理和分析判断的能力，推断出作者未明确表述的观点或态度。 4.比对选项：注意选项中是否与文章内容相符、是否符合逻辑、是否忠于原文。 5.排除干扰项：有些选项可能会偏离文章的主题或作者的意图，或者包含错误的信息，考生要学会排除这些干扰项，找到最符合文章内容和作者意图的选项。 9．词句猜测 【考点介绍】 词句猜测题是英语阅读中的常见题型之一，它要求考生在遇到生词或难以理解的句子时，能够通过上下文的信息进行推断和理解。这种能力对于阅读理解能力的提高非常有帮助，因为在实际的阅读过程中，我们经常会遇到一些不认识的单词或无法理解的句子。因此，考生需要学会利用上下文信息来猜测词句的意思。 1．词义猜测这种题经常是以以下的方式进行： The word in paragraph can best be replaced by… The underlined word most probably means..． By saying ，the author means… The expression is closest to… According to the passage，the phrase suggests… The underlined part （in Para． ） means … 2．词义猜测的方法 （1）利用构词法猜测词义 Failure at this later stage is unthinkable． 我们可以将 unthinkable 这个词拆成 un，think，able，其中 think 是词根，意为"想，认为"，un 是前缀，表示否定意义，able 是"能……的，可……的"，因此 unthinkable 的意思是"不可想象的"． （2）利用文中的定义猜测词义 A correspondent is a person with whom another person exchanges letters regularly．根据其定义不难猜出其意为"通信者"． （3）利用同义词或近义词猜测词义 The old woman has a strange habit to keep over 100 cats in her house．Her neighbours all called her an eccentric lady．通过上下文可知 strange 为 eccentric 的同义词，由此我们可以猜出其意为 "怪的，古怪的"． （4）利用反义词猜测词义 Unlike her gregarious sister，Alice is a shy，unsociable person who does not like to go to parties or to make new friends．此句把 Alice 和她姐姐进行对比，说 Alice 性格腼腆、不爱交际，而她姐姐却与之相反，这样可知 gregarious 为 unsociable （不爱好交际的） 的反义词，意为爱好交际的． （5）利用文意来猜测词义 The door was so low that I hit my head on the lintel．根据句意"门很矮，我的头撞在……"来看，头一定是撞在"横梁"上了． （6）利用举例或实例猜测词义 David is often voracious．One day he ate as much as three pounds of meat．通过实例，可猜出 voracious 为"狼吞虎咽的"． （7）利用常识或生活经历猜测词义 All the houses in this town collapsed during the strong earthquake．经验告诉我们，强烈的地震会使房屋倒塌，这样容易猜出 collapsed 意为"倒塌"． （8）利用词义重复猜测词义 My uncle was a nomad，an incurable wander who could never stay in one place．后半句其实是对前半句的重复表达，这样可以猜出 nomad 就是 wanderer（流浪者）的意思． （9）利用词义转折来猜测词义 This little girl is not stupid，on the contrary，no one could be more intelligent．根据 on the contrary 可以推出 intelligent 与 stupid 意思相反，意为"聪明的，有才能的"． （10）利用上下文逻辑关系猜测词义 She brought out a lot of things for us to eat﹣apples，pears，bananas，grapes， mangoes and some biscuits．依据上文"她拿出许多东西给我吃"以及 apples，pears，bananas 等词，很容易猜出这些词是食物． 【解题思路】 1.上下文阅读：尤其是与待猜测的单词或句子相关的内容。要特别注意那些能够提供线索的关键词和语句，如形容词、副词、动词等。 2.语境分析：即作者所描述的情境和情感等。 3.猜测推测：可以先根据上下文的逻辑关系，尝试理解单词或句子的意思；如果无法直接猜测，可以借助同义词、反义词等常见的语言现象进行推断。 4.排除干扰项：有些选项可能会偏离正确的意思，或者包含错误的信息，考生要学会排除这些干扰项，找到最符合文章内容和上下文线索的选项。 5.选择正确答案：注意选项中是否与自己猜测的意思相符、是否符合逻辑、是否忠于原文。 10．观点态度 【考点介绍】 态度观点题是英语阅读中的高级题型，它要求考生在理解文章的基础上，洞察作者或文中人物的观点、态度、情感等。这类题目不仅要求考生对文章的内容有深入的理解，还要求考生能够准确地把握作者或特定人物的情感色彩和态度倾向。通常，态度观点题会以直接或间接的方式出现。 【解题思路】 1.抓住主题：首先，考生要抓住文章的主题或主题思想，理解文章主要讨论的内容和观点。这可以通过寻找主题句或关键词来实现。 2.分析作者语气：注意那些表达肯定、否定、怀疑、赞扬、批评等感情色彩的词语和句子。 3.寻找关键证据：包括作者引用的研究、事实、例子等。 4.推理判断：需要根据文章的线索和提示，进行推理和判断，得出作者的态度或观点。 5.比对选项：找到与自己推断相符的选项。注意选项中是否符合文章内容、是否忠于原文、是否表述准确。 6.排除干扰项：有些选项可能会混淆视听，或者包含错误的信息，考生要学会排除这些干扰项，找到最符合文章内容和作者意图的选项。 第1页（共1页） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
