2025年中考英语（人教版）阅读表达（任务型阅读）专项练习课件

(1) 阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 Recently, I started to use an app to keep a record of my running. Each run I wanted to go a little farther, run a little faster and burn more calories (卡路里). Last night I finished an 8.3-km run in 46 minutes and burnt 468 calories. In comparison, my run two days ago was 8.6 km in 46 minutes with 483 calories burnt. This inner self-comparison left me feeling disappointed. I became so focused (专注的) on the numbers that I forgot to consider what I achieved. These tiny differences in numbers kept me away from the bigger picture: how did I actually feel after completing my most recent run? Well, honestly, I was completely tired out. What good is running to beat your top score if you don’t feel on top? We should exercise for the purpose of building our confidence. And working out harder and faster may serve that purpose. But confidence building comes with being able to do more in our day-to-day life, experiencing less pain and more freedom in movement, and feeling good after a workout. Fitness should help us with our quality (质量) of life, the ability to sleep, good memory, among other things. Fitness should not just come with the eagerness for the success in numbers. In our busy lives, we only have limited time for fitness. When we do physical exercise, we should value what feels good over what looks or sounds good. Sometimes what serves us and our health is coming home and doing a light workout, like going on a short bike ride. Sometimes what serves us is simply going to sleep at 9:30 p.m. instead of forcing ourselves into a workout. Apps of this kind are a great wayfor us to keep an eye on our health. But don’t read into the numbers to the point where you lose out on feeling proud that you are taking care of yourself. So my advice is: when you do physical exercise, make sure you feel good about yourself over feeling good about the numbers. 问题： 1. Why did the writer start to use the app? 2. Did this inner self-comparison leave the writer feeling disappointed? 3. What did the writer forget to consider when he became too focused on the numbers? 4. According to the writer, what should be our purpose of doing exercise? 5. When you do physical exercise, which do you think is more important, feeling good about yourself or feeling good about the numbers? Why? (Please give two reasons.) 参考答案： To keep a record of his running. Yes, it did 3. He forgot to consider what he achieved. 4. Building our confidence. 5. Feeling good about yourself is more important than feeling good about the numbers. Because exercise should improve our quality of life and feeling good about yourself is more motivating and sustainable. 2 (2) 阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 From September to February each year, Dazhong Mountain in Chuxiong, Yunnan is home to more than 50,000,000 migratory birds (候鸟). People used to call the mountain Daqueshan, which means bird-hunting mountain. The villagers used to hunt birds on the mountain. Then one year, they couldn’t hear birds singing. People started to worry if migratory birds would return again. In 1984, the Hongtupo Forest Police Station was set up. The officers worked on the mountain, trying to find migratory birds and stop people from hunting them. The job was really difficult. They might lose their way or meet dangerous animals. The officers also tried to tell villagers the importance of protecting birds and other wild animals. They visited the villagers door to door and helped them with farm work. They even organized activities in schools to get their messages across to children. Now, even children know that birds are to be loved. The mountain is greener, the water is clearer, and more and more animals come to live here. It has become a bird-protecting mountain. Many people have opened bed-and-breakfasts (民宿) for birdwatchers. “The village has changed a lot, and we don’t hunt birds anymore,” people say. Since people have stopped hunting, the police station now mainly works to save injured (受伤的) wildlife. 问题： 1.

However, Meng Tian couldn’t accept the failure and continued to spend time wondering how to improve the brush pen. A few days later, he was having a walk outside for some fresh air. By chance, he found again the rabbit hair brush pen that he had thrown away. He picked it up and found that it had changed and was now soft and wet—holding water. Meng Tian got inspiration at once.

When this happens, it’s not good to react immediately, but after you’ve calmed down, look at the positive (积极的) qualities in that person. I’m not asking you to be a doormat (受气包) or simply look at the positive qualities when someone is being unkind to you. Instead, I’m suggesting that you take a look at the positive qualities in addition to everything else. Here’s an example: Let’s say you’re taking your son or daughter to a basketball game. You’ re in the line and the guy behind you, who is also with his child, starts pushing. You ask him to back off and he gets angry, and perhaps starts shouting. All of this is taking place in front of your child and his child. Finally things calm down. Perhaps you’ re still angry and silently cursing (咒骂) him as you sit in your chair. But can you see anything positive in that person? Most people would say no. But at least he was trying to spend some time with his kid just like you did. You don’t know anything else about the person but you just find some positıve qualities. Too often we focus only on a person’s negative (消极的) qualities and forget the good things. By looking at the positive, you get your mind to move its attention. It now begins to see things differently and thus (所以) sends a different message and different energy to your sense. This will bring positive situations to you. It’s that old saying:” What goes around comes around. “ You focus on the good things in other people, and other people will see the good things in you and you’ ll attract positive situations in your life. For example:When you do this you also let out the anger and unhappiness, thus creating more positive energy. Try doing thus with people you know and don’t know. Creating positive energy is important to your success and happiness. Let’s face it. You certainly don’t want negative energy or a negative lifestyle. 问题： 1. What should you do when a person anger you according to the passage? ________________________________ 2. In the writer’s opinion, what is the positive quality of the guy? _________________________________ 3. What is going to happen if you focus on the good things in other people? _________________________________ 4. Give an example of “What goes around comes around” which happened in your life. _________________________________ 5. Summarize (总结) the passage within 30 words. _________________________________ 参考答案： 1. Calm down and look at the positive qualities in that person. 2. He was trying to spend time with his kid. 3. Other people will see the good things in me and I’ll attract positive situations in my life. 4. Once I helped an elderly person find their way, and later when I was lost, someone helped me in return. 5. The passage discusses how to react calmly, focus on others’ positive qualities, and attract positive energy in life. （5） 阅读下面短文，根据要求完成下面各小题。 Amy Phelps loves giraffes very much.

There is a science about how we copy great ideas from animals and plants to create helpful products. It is called biomimetics (仿生学) .  Some animals such as this sugar glider have wing-like structures (结构) to help them fly from tree to tree. When they jump, they spread out their arms and legs to help them fly down easily. Wing-suits, a kind of clothes, can let people experience flying. The idea of these clothes comes from the sugar glider.  Some animals have structures used for self-protection. An armadillo has a hard cover that can protect it from other dangerous animals. When an armadillo feels that it is in danger, it will change into a ball. Once the dangerous animal goes away, it comes out of the ball. The armadillo has taught people to create a backpack with a hard surface. The surface of the backpack protects things inside from being broken.  Plants have helped people come up with amazing inventions, too. Perhaps the best-known example is Velcro (尼龙搭扣) . It includes two pieces of cloth. They stick to each other when they are pressed together. Velcro is used on everything from handbags to clothes. The idea of Velcro is from burrs (带芒刺的小果实) of a plant. They have special structures to allow themselves to stick to people’s clothing or hair. They are taken to other places in this way.  From these examples, we can see biomimetics is widely used in our daily life. What other problems will nature help us solve in the future? Let’s wait and see! 1、2题完成句子；3-5题简略回答问题。 1. We humans learn a lot from _________. 2. The sugar gliders spread out ______ to help them fly down easily. 3.

What is kindness then? To be exact, kindness is the quality of being friendly. If we give up our seats on the bus, help a classmate solve a math problem, or welcome a new member into a group activity, we are showing kindness. Actually, these acts are done without expectation of reward (回报). We begin to realise that while helping others, we’re in fact helping ourselves. Showing kindness benefits us in different ways. It helps us know about ourselves. It develops our problem-solving skills. It also gives us the chance to be thankful. We can never imagine the power of one simple act of kindness. It may change our day. And that day may change our week. That week may change the rest of the year—or even our whole life. In short, we rise by lifting others. Here are some teenagers’ acts of kindness. Linda: I sat next to a new student at lunch. I was pleased because I made her day. Kayla: In order to raise money and protect wild animals, I held a singing competition. Iwas proud of it. Peter: I opened the door for an old lady. I felt happy because I could help other people. 问题： 1. What is kindness according to the text? _________________________________ 2. List two benefits of showing kindness. _________________________________ 3. What did Linda do to show her kindness? _________________________________ 4. What do you think of Peter’s act of kindness?

Unlike traditional travel, it aims to avoid famous tourist spots and large crowds to get a better experience. [2] Many young people enjoy gathering a couple of good friends and hanging out in the streets when they visit a new city. They can follow a typical city route (路线), exploring old buildings, going window-shopping, drinking a cup of coffee, or enjoying local snacks. [3] In order to show their Citywalk, more and more people prefer to share their experiences and thoughts through social media (媒体). Xiao Yiyi, a young guide in Changsha, recently shared six Citywalk routes of different cities on the Internet, providing experiences for visitors to “walk in open-air museums”. Her Changsha travel route includes more unusual sights such as historical buildings, old streets, and even some snack bars. [4] Citywalk is spreading from the largest cities to smaller ones, encouraging more travelers and event organizers to join. Some places, such as Beijing and Shandong, have included Citywalk in their plans to develop cultural tourism and relaxing tours. Shanghai has set up Citywalk bus routes to help day-trippers reach more faraway areas first, and then continue on foot. [5] Citywalk not only offers a way for young people to explore a city but also provides them with a new social situation, where they can share their interests and ideas and make friends easily. What’s more, Citywalk provides an opportunity for tour guides and travel companies to offer a more professional service to meet the ever-changing market requirements. 问题： 1.

And airport workers use an X-ray machine to check objects before a plane leaves. Nowadays, X-ray technology is widely used in medicine and other fields. X-rays were first discovered by a German scientist, Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen (1845 –1923). He found them quite by accident in 1895. One day, he discovered that an unknown kind of radiation (放射线) could hardly pass through hard objects like bones (骨头). Later, Röntgen took a photo of his wife’s hand. It clearly showed her ring and her bones. That was the first X-ray photo in the world. Why is there an “X” in the word X-ray? It’s because Röntgen couldn’t explain exactly how it worked. He just knew that X-rays were new and useful for science. In fact, X-rays soon became an important tool in medicine. With the help of X-rays, doctors could see inside the human body for the first time without surgery (外科手术). Röntgen was awarded the first Nobel Prize (诺贝尔奖) in physics in 1901 for his discovery. When he was asked what he was thinking at the moment of discovery, he replied, “I didn’t think, I investigated (研究).” Röntgen gave away his Nobel Prize money to his university. And he never took out any patents (专利权) on X-rays, to make sure that the world could freely make use of his discovery. 问题： 1. Where is X-ray technology used? ________________________________ 2. When were X-rays discovered? _________________________________ 3. Whose hand was in the first X-ray photo? _________________________________ 4. Why did Röntgen name the ray “X-ray”? _________________________________ 5. What do you think of Röntgen? And why? _________________________________ 参考答案： 1. In medicine and other fields.     2. In 1895.     3. Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen’s wife.     4. Because he couldn’t explain exactly how it worked.     5. I think he is selfless. Because he gave away his Nobel Prize money to his university. And he never took out any patents on X-rays, to make sure that the world could freely make use of his discovery. （13） 阅读短文，然后根据内容回答问题。 If you have a chance to learn by yourself, what might you do? Perhaps you choose to practice football skills; you would prefer to discuss something together; and you might just read. This is the most important thing of “unschooling”. It is also known as “natural learning” or “independent learning”. For this kind of educational practice, people think differently. Here are their comments (意见). Agree Independent learning teaches children to be responsible for themselves. With no teacher around, children must manage themselves, and this is a really important skill for later life. Unschooling allows children to learn what they are really interested in. If learning is enjoyable, it’s more successful. Very young children learn in a natural way. Without being taught, they know colors and voices, they learn smiling and walking. Why shouldn’t people continue to learn like this? Unschooling gives children more time for sports, volunteering and museum or park visits. They may meet different people who share their interests. Disagree Unschooling requires parents’ support and attention. They need to create a learning space that excites children and remind them of their daily routines. Teachers can push children to learn what they don’t enjoy but can be important later in life. Unschooling sounds too good to be true. It can be helpful when children are very young. But it puts too much pressure on children because they can learn difficult subjects easily only with teachers’ help. Unschooling happens at home, so children could have less contact with others at their age. This means they could end up becoming shy. When deciding how you are going to learn, it’s necessary to think about which works. Choose what is suitable for you and what can have a positive influence on your growth. Know More Schooling is education that children receive at school. Home schooling is the practice of educating that children learn at home with a parent or a tutor. Unschooling is an educational practice that allows children to decide how, what and where they want to learn. 问题： 1. What is the most important thing of unschooling? ____________________________________ 2. Whose support and attention do children need when they experience unschooling? ____________________________________ 3. How can children become successful in learning? ____________________________________ 4. Why are children under too much pressure from unschooling? ____________________________________ 5. If possible, what kind of educational practice would you like to choose? Why? ____________________________________  参考答案： 1. It allows children to decide how, what and where they want to learn.     2. (They need their) parents’ support and attention.     3. By learning what they are really interested in./They can learn what they are really interested in.     4. Because they can’t learn difficult subjects easily without teachers’ help./Because they can learn difficult subjects easily only with teachers’ help.     5. 例一：Schooling. Because school teaches the importance of timekeeping and discipline, which prepares me for future life and work./Because it provides me with chances to have contact with other children of my age./Because at school, teachers can push me to learn what I don’t enjoy but can be important later in life. 例二：Unschooling. Because it may take me out of the stress from the competition with other students at school./Because I need to be responsible for myself, which helps develop my independence./Because it gives me more time for sports, volunteering and museum or park visits. 例三：Home schooling. Because it makes it possible for me to learn at my own pace.   （13） 阅读短文，然后根据内容回答问题。 Born in 1977 in a family of engineers, Xie Xiaohui went to university in 1995. After graduation, he joined the army and was sent to Yong ’an Fire Station in Sanming City, Fujian. He went on thousands of rescue (营救) tasks and saved hundreds of people from fires with his team. Whenever the alarm bell went off, he was always the first to get out, jump onto the fire-fighting truck, and rush to the fire.

After going through hundreds of operations in the following three years, he joined a cycling club in order to get well from the operations. Later, he set up a cycling team to spread fire safety knowledge by cycling around. His team trained nearly 5,500 people within three years as they tried to raise fire safety awareness (意识) among people.

When I miss out on something fun or important that my friends are experiencing, I feel worried. How can I avoid this? Sarah Hi! Sarah, This is a big reason why so many people worry about social media’s influence on teenagers. Feeling worried and lonely as a result of looking through your phone is quite normal, even if it is unhealthy. Quite a lot of people post their pictures or videos on social media. Most of them share the best parts of their lives. You must keep in mind that they do so to share good feelings with others. It’s hard to find people sharing their bad moments, like feeling stressed about their home life or shame after failing a test. If seeing these videos and photos still causes bad feelings, stop connecting for a while. Do something that makes you pleased and relaxed. Try to read or spend some time with your family. You don’t need to impress anyone else. Pat 回答下面5个问题，每题答案不超过6个词。 1. What kind of problems does Pat help teenagers with? __________________________________ 2.
