外研版九年级上册12篇任务型阅读专项练习 （难度递增） 阅读1：第一张家庭肖像（家庭记忆，难度：★☆☆☆） This is the first family portrait we took with my baby sister, Lily, three years ago. The photo was taken on a warm April morning, right after Lily turned 3 months old. Her cheeks were round and pink, like two ripe peaches, and her big eyes sparkled with curiosity as she stared at the camera. In the photo, Dad sits on our old brown sofa, holding Lily carefully in his arms. Mom stands behind him, her hand gently resting on Dad’s shoulder, a soft smile on her face. My older brother, Tom, kneels on the carpet beside the sofa. He’s sticking out his tongue and waving a small teddy bear—his way of trying to make Lily laugh, though she just blinks at him quietly. Grandma took this photo with her old film camera. “Look at how small she is!” she said, “This is the day our family became complete!” 1.Was the photo taken in winter? ___________________________________________________________ 2.How old was Lily when the photo was taken? ___________________________________________________________ 3.What is Tom doing to make Lily laugh? ___________________________________________________________ 4.Who took the family portrait? ___________________________________________________________ 5.Why does Grandma think the photo is special? ___________________________________________________________ 阅读2：英国的日常礼仪与传统（国家文化，难度：★☆☆☆） The UK is a country with rich cultural traditions. Let’s explore some daily habits and customs that make it special! First, British people are known for their politeness. When meeting someone for the first time, they usually shake hands and say “Nice to meet you!”. Hugging or kissing cheeks is not common—only close friends or family might do this. They also use “please” and “thank you” in almost every situation, even when asking family members for a glass of water. Teachers often tell children, “Manners make the man!” Second, afternoon tea is a beloved custom. At about 3 or 4 p.m., people take a break from work or school. They drink black tea with milk and sugar, and enjoy small sandwiches with cucumber or ham, or sweet cakes like scones. Many British families have a “tea time” together, chatting about their day. Third, weather talk is everywhere! The UK has changeable weather—one minute it’s sunny, the next it’s raining. So people often start conversations with, “Lovely day, isn’t it?” or “It’s pouring today, right?” 1.Do British people often hug when meeting for the first time? ___________________________________________________________ 2.What do they usually eat during afternoon tea? ___________________________________________________________ 3.What time do people have afternoon tea in the UK? ___________________________________________________________ 4.Why do British people talk about the weather a lot? ___________________________________________________________ 5.Is “Manners make the man!” a common saying in British families? ___________________________________________________________ 阅读3：社区垃圾分类（环保行动，难度：★☆☆☆） In many cities across China, waste sorting has gradually become a daily habit for residents. Take Green Garden Community in Shanghai as an example. This community of 1,200 families has practiced strict waste sorting for three years. There are four colors of trash bins: blue for recyclables, red for harmful waste, green for kitchen waste, and gray for other waste. At first, many residents felt confused. Mrs. Li, a 55-year-old retiree, recalled, “I once threw a plastic bottle into the gray bin by mistake! My 12-year-old grandson, Xiao Ming, corrected me. The community held weekly classes, printed guides, and sent volunteers to check bins. Now, I can sort waste in 30 seconds!” Last month, the community collected 2 tons of recyclables, 1.5 tons of kitchen waste, and only 0.8 tons of other waste. 1.Is waste sorting a daily habit in Green Garden Community? ___________________________________________________________ 2.What color bin is used for kitchen waste? ___________________________________________________________ 3.Who first taught Mrs. Li to sort waste correctly? ___________________________________________________________ 4.How much recyclables did the community collect last month? ___________________________________________________________ 5.Why is waste sorting important besides keeping the environment clean? ___________________________________________________________ 阅读4：被遗忘的童年照片（成长回忆，难度：★★☆☆） Last month, I found a yellowed photo in the bottom of my mom’s old suitcase. The photo was a little torn, but I could still see a girl with long braids and a red cotton dress. “Who is this?” I asked Mom. Mom froze, then smiled. “That’s me!” she said, “I was 12 when this was taken. It was the day I won first prize in the city’s painting competition. I was so proud that I wrote my name on the back—Mei, 1998, First Place.” I flipped the photo over. Sure enough, there was Mom’s neat handwriting. “Why did you hide it?” I asked. Mom sighed. “When we moved, the photo fell out and got lost. I thought I’d never see it again.” Now, I’ve put the photo in a shiny new frame on my desk. Mom says, “It’s not just a photo of me—it’s a story of my dream and hard work.” 1.Did the writer find the photo in a desk drawer? ___________________________________________________________ 2.What color was the girl’s dress in the photo? ___________________________________________________________ 3.How old was Mom when the photo was taken? ___________________________________________________________ 4.Why did Mom write her name on the photo? ___________________________________________________________ 5.Where does the writer keep the photo now? ___________________________________________________________ 阅读5：日本的礼仪与樱花季（国家文化，难度：★★☆☆） Japan is a country where tradition meets modernity. Let’s learn about two important parts of its culture: greetings and cherry blossoms. Bowing is a key part of Japanese etiquette. When you meet someone, you bow to show respect. The depth of the bow depends on the situation: 15 degrees for friends, 30 degrees for elders, and 45 degrees in formal situations. Sometimes, people also shake hands, but only with foreigners or in international events. Cherry blossoms, or “sakura” in Japanese, are the national flower. Every spring (late March to early April), the whole country turns pink. People have “hanami” (picnics under cherry trees), bringing bento boxes with sushi, onigiri, and green tea. Children fly kites, and adults sing songs. Sakura blooms for only a week, teaching people to value short, beautiful moments. 1.Is bowing important in Japanese etiquette? ___________________________________________________________ 2.What do people eat during hanami? ___________________________________________________________ 3.When is cherry blossom season in Japan? ___________________________________________________________ 4.Why do cherry blossoms teach people to value short moments? ___________________________________________________________ 5.Do Japanese people only bow, or do they sometimes shake hands? ___________________________________________________________ 阅读6：清洁河流，健康生活（环保行动，难度：★★☆☆） The Xiaohe River once ran through our city as “the black dragon” because of pollution. Ten years ago, the water was dark and smelly—factories poured wastewater into it, and residents threw plastic bags, food waste, and even old furniture from bridges. Fish died in batches, and no one dared to walk near the riverbank. In 2020, the government launched the “River Cleaning Project”. They closed illegal factories, built a sewage treatment plant, and pulled out 50 tons of rubbish. To purify the water, they planted water lilies and reeds along the banks. Local schools formed “River Guardians” groups—students wear yellow vests to check the river every weekend, recording water color, taking photos of pollution, and reporting problems. Ms. Chen, a 42-year-old fisherwoman, said, “Eight years ago, I caught nothing but plastic bags! Now, the water is clear, and I catch 5-10 fish a day—carp, crucian, even shrimp!” 1.Was the Xiaohe River called “the black dragon” ten years ago? ___________________________________________________________ 2.What did factories do to the Xiaohe River in the past? ___________________________________________________________ 3.When did the government start the “River Cleaning Project”? ___________________________________________________________ 4.What do the “River Guardians” do every weekend? ___________________________________________________________ 5.Why did Ms. Chen sell vegetables eight years ago? ___________________________________________________________ 阅读7：获救海龟的照片（海洋保护，难度：★★★☆） Last summer, my family and I visited Sanya for a beach vacation. One afternoon, we joined a local beach clean-up and met Ms. Li, a marine biologist. She showed us a photo on her phone—a sea turtle with a plastic bottle cap stuck in its mouth. “His name is Greenie,” Ms. Li explained, “We found him two weeks ago, weak and hungry. The plastic cap blocked his throat, so he couldn’t eat. We saved him after a 3-hour operation!” She then showed us another photo: Greenie swimming happily in the ocean, his shell shiny under the sun. I asked, “Why do sea turtles eat plastic?” Ms. Li said, “They often mistake plastic for jellyfish, their favorite food. Every year, 100,000 sea turtles die from eating plastic.” Before we left, I took a photo of Greenie’s two pictures side by side. It tells me: Every piece of plastic we throw away could be a death trap for animals. 1.Did the writer go to Sanya for a summer camp? ___________________________________________________________ 2.What was stuck in Greenie’s mouth in the first photo? ___________________________________________________________ 3.Did Ms. Li save Greenie one week or two weeks ago? ___________________________________________________________ 4.Why do sea turtles eat plastic? ___________________________________________________________ 5.What does the writer’s favorite photo show? ___________________________________________________________ 阅读8：巴西的狂欢节与足球文化（国家文化，难度：★★★☆） Brazil is a country full of energy and joy! Let’s explore two of its most famous traditions: Carnival and football. Carnival is Brazil’s biggest party, held every year in February or March, right before Easter. For five days, cities like Rio de Janeiro turn into a sea of color. People wear feathered costumes, dance samba to loud music, and decorate streets with flowers. The Samba Schools compete in parades—each school has its own theme, like “Under the Sea” or “Ancient Egypt”. Even tourists join in, dancing with strangers and laughing all night. Football is more than a sport in Brazil—it’s a way of life. The country has won the World Cup 5 times, with legends like Pelé and Neymar. Kids start playing at 4 or 5, using old socks as balls if they don’t have a real one. Streets, parks, and even beaches become football fields. Many parents say, “If my child can’t play football, he’s not a true Brazilian!” 1.Is Carnival the biggest party in Brazil? ___________________________________________________________ 2.When does Brazilian Carnival usually happen? ___________________________________________________________ 3.What do Samba Schools do during Carnival? ___________________________________________________________ 4.Why is football important to Brazilians? ___________________________________________________________ 5.If you visited Brazil, would you prefer to watch a Carnival parade or play football on the beach? Why? ___________________________________________________________ 阅读9：拯救雨林（环保行动，难度：★★★☆） The Amazon rainforest, covering 5.5 million square kilometers, is called “the Earth’s lungs”. It produces 20% of the world’s oxygen and is home to 10% of all known animal species, including jaguars, macaws, and tree frogs. However, deforestation has threatened this “green treasure”. People cut down trees to make farmland for cattle and soybeans, or build roads and cities. Scientists warn: “If deforestation continues at the current rate, 25% of the Amazon may become a dry grassland by 2050. Many animals will lose their homes, and the forest will release billions of tons of CO₂, making global warming worse.” But there is hope. Brazil passed a law in 2023: anyone who cuts down trees without permission will be fined $10,000 per hectare. Local tribes also play a key role—they use traditional knowledge to protect the forest, like growing crops without cutting large areas of trees. A recent study shows that deforestation in tribal areas is 50% lower than in other regions. 1.Is the Amazon rainforest called “the Earth’s heart”? ___________________________________________________________ 2.Why do people cut down trees in the Amazon? ___________________________________________________________ 3.Will the Amazon become a dry grassland or a desert if deforestation continues? ___________________________________________________________ 4.What does Brazil’s 2023 law do to stop deforestation? ___________________________________________________________ 5.Do you think local tribes are important for saving the Amazon? Why? ___________________________________________________________ 阅读10：祖父的花园与玫瑰照片（亲情回忆，难度：★★★★） Grandpa passed away last winter, but his garden still blooms with life. This photo, taken three years ago, shows him kneeling in the garden, holding a small red rose between his wrinkled fingers. “This is the first rose of the year,” he said, “and it’s for my favorite granddaughter—you!” Grandpa loved gardening more than anything. He grew juicy tomatoes, sweet carrots, and over 30 kinds of flowers. But his true love was roses. “They’re like people,” he’d say, “beautiful, but they need patience and care.” After Grandpa died, I tried to take care of the garden, but I failed at first. The roses withered, and the tomatoes grew small and sour. Then I found his old notebook in the toolbox. It was full of notes: “Roses need 6 hours of sun daily,” “Tomatoes hate wet soil.” With Grandpa’s guidance, I learned to grow the garden as he did. 1.Is Grandpa’s garden empty now? ___________________________________________________________ 2.What was Grandpa holding in the photo? ___________________________________________________________ 3.Did Grandpa love tomatoes or roses better? ___________________________________________________________ 4.How did the writer learn to take care of the garden? ___________________________________________________________ 5.What’s a photo that makes you feel close to a loved one? ___________________________________________________________ 阅读11：法国的艺术与生活美学（国家文化，难度：★★★★） France is a country of romance and art. Let’s dive into two parts of its unique lifestyle: Paris and bread culture. Paris, the capital, is called the “City of Light”. At night, landmarks like the Eiffel Tower shine brightly, and street lamps light up narrow stone streets. The Louvre Museum is home to the Mona Lisa, a painting by Leonardo da Vinci. People love strolling along the Seine River, stopping at small cafes to drink espresso and read newspapers. Artists sit in squares, painting portraits of tourists for a few euros. Bread is a daily treasure in France. The baguette is the most famous—long, crispy on the outside, soft inside. French people eat it with every meal: for breakfast with butter and jam, for lunch with cheese, and for dinner with soup. Some bakeries open at 5 a.m. to bake fresh baguettes. A French saying goes, “Without bread, there’s no life!” French people also care about “la douceur de vivre” (life’s sweetness). They take time to enjoy meals, chat with friends, and appreciate small beautiful things. 1.Is Paris called the “City of Light”? ___________________________________________________________ 2.What famous painting can you see in the Louvre? ___________________________________________________________ 3.Do French people prefer croissants or baguettes for breakfast? ___________________________________________________________ 4.Why do some bakeries open at 5 a.m.? ___________________________________________________________ 5.If you lived in France, what would you do to enjoy “la douceur de vivre”? Why? ___________________________________________________________ 阅读12：应对气候变化（环保行动，难度：★★★★） Climate change is one of the biggest challenges facing humanity. The Earth’s temperature has risen by 1.1°C since the 19th century, mainly because of CO₂ from burning fossil fuels like coal and oil. This causes ice to melt, sea levels to rise, and extreme weather like floods and heatwaves to become more frequent. But everyone can make a difference! Here are some practical ideas: • Use less energy: Turn off lights when you leave a room. LED bulbs use 75% less electricity than traditional bulbs and last 25 times longer. A family that uses 10 LED bulbs can save 300 yuan on electricity each year. • Eat green: Producing 1kg of beef requires 15,000 liters of water—enough to fill 30 bathtubs! “Meatless Mondays” encourages people to eat vegetables, beans, or tofu instead of meat once a week. • Plant trees: Trees are natural CO₂ absorbers. A single tree can take in 150 kg of CO₂ in a year. In China, the “Great Green Wall” project has planted over 66 billion trees since 1978, slowing desert expansion. 1.Is climate change a small challenge for humans? ___________________________________________________________ 2.Why has the Earth’s temperature risen since the 19th century? ___________________________________________________________ 3.Do LED bulbs use more electricity or less electricity than traditional bulbs? ___________________________________________________________ 4.What does “Meatless Mondays” encourage people to do? ___________________________________________________________ 5.What small action do you take to fight climate change? ___________________________________________________________ 答案与解析 阅读1：第一张家庭肖像 1.No, it wasn’t.
