专题05 阅读理解之记叙文（解析版） （1） （2025·山西·中考真题）请阅读下面语篇，从每小题所给的A、B、C三个选项中，选出一个最佳选项。 Bell used to work as a children’s bookseller and helped young people of all ages find their perfect books. During lunch breaks, she wrote her first book, which came out in 2016. Then she published (出版) a series of magic books. In the 2024 book, we meet a boy. He is taken into a secret world filled with strange animals with magic. He soon discovers he can call out those animals by using his energy connected with different feelings. The idea behind the book came from Bell’s strong wish to learn more about the mysteries of science. Bell says, “Even though the book has magic, it is rooted in science.” Bell’s favorite subject at school was science, and she has always believed that magic has a lot to do with science. “People study science. It is full of mystery and the unknown. That feels a lot like magic,” she says. In the 2025 book, we join the boy again as he learns how to improve his skills to call out the animals at a school. Bell says that if she could choose any animal to call out, it would be an “everwing”, which is born from hope. “I can fly, on its back! Hope and imagination have great power. They give me wings to realize my dream.” Bell says science also comes from human curiosity (好奇心) and imagination, which are similar to the hope that creates magic in the story. She hopes her books can encourage young readers to learn more about science. 1．When did Bell’s first book come out? A．In 2016. B．In 2024. C．In 2025. 2．Which can best explain the underlined words “is rooted in”? A．Gets ideas from. B．Pays attention to. C．Makes progress in. 3．Why would Bell like to choose “everwing”? A．Because it can teach her to fly. B．Because it can lead her to achieve more. C．Because it can take her away from her busy life. 4．How does Bell feel about the relationship between science and magic? A．Science depends on magic. B．Magic can be turned into science. C．Science and magic have something in common. 5．What is Bell’s purpose of writing the two magic books? A．To open the door to the magic world for readers. B．To guide readers to enjoy magic and value science. C．To tell readers science is the most important school subject. 【答案】1．A 2．A 3．B 4．C 5．B 【导语】本文讲述了Bell的创作经历和她的两本魔法书，通过这些魔法书，Bell展示了科学和魔法之间的联系。 1．细节理解题。根据“During lunch breaks, she wrote her first book, which came out in 2016”可知Bell的第一本书是在2016年出版的。故选A。 2．词义猜测题。根据“Even though the book has magic, it is rooted in science”可知尽管这本书有魔力，但它植根于科学，故此处划线部分意为“植根于，从……获得灵感”，和gets ideas from意义相近。故选A。 3．细节理解题。根据“Bell says that if she could choose any animal to call out, it would be an ‘everwing’, which is born from hope...They give me wings to realize my dream’”可知，Bell选择“everwing”是因为它象征着希望和想象力，能够帮助她实现梦想。故选B。 4．细节理解题。根据“Bell says science also comes from human curiosity (好奇心) and imagination, which are similar to the hope that creates magic in the story”可知Bell认为科学和魔法有许多共同之处，都源于人类的好奇心和想象力。故选C。 5．细节理解题。根据“She hopes her books can encourage young readers to learn more about science.”可知Bell写这两本魔法书的目的是引导读者享受魔法并重视科学。故选B。 （2） （2024·山西·中考真题）请阅读下面语篇，从每小题所给的A、B、C三个选项中，选出一个最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 For Emma, PE class was the most difficult part.

The day I heard that the Bright Bookstore was closing, I was sad. The bookstore had been in the neighborhood for 50 years, and it was a great place where people could connect through their love of books. When I met Old Tim, the store’s owner, he told me it was difficult to run（运营）a traditional bookstore. Most young people preferred reading e-books and more people bought books online. Childhood memories came back to me so clearly. A group of us kids often went to the store. We looked at the new books, or just talked with Tim. We spent hours reading there. Tim encouraged us to share our ideas by writing them on a large board. A few months later, I was back and was surprised to see that the Bright Bookstore was still open for business. It was still old, but inside it was like a different world. In an area, a book reading was going on. Nearby, some readers were sharing their ideas on a screen instead of the large board. Some were reading on computers. It even had a coffee shop selling nice food. Clearly, the Bright Bookstore was in good, creative hands. Tim told me that there were more community events in the coffee shop such as book readings and even concerts and movie nights. The bookstore was turned into a place where the book lovers got together and shared ideas and experiences. “Well, as you can see, technology and creativity have brought my old bookstore into the 21st century!

One dog’s sensitivity (敏感) to sound taught him the importance of communicating with the pets and deeply understanding their behaviors to keep safe, comfortable relationships with them. But being a pet sitter isn’t always easy. In-home pet care includes pet sitters entering other people’s houses when they are away, which may raise concerns about property security (财产安全). “Before starting the pet-sitting, I will ask the owner to lock away their valuable things and even use cameras for security,” said Cao. Besides, pet sitters usually register on platforms with their personal information. So if there’s any problem, it can be solved directly. Cao keeps open communication with his customers to avoid getting into trouble. The income of pet sitters is likely to change all the time, and most pet sitters take this work as a part-time job. However, Cao remains hopeful about the future pet-sitting market. “People are starting to care more about their pets’ health and happiness. There will be lots of new chances in the future,” said Cao. 1．What does a pet sitter do? A．Taking care of pets. B．Looking after sick pets. C．Teaching pet owners. 2．If Cao Ting works three times a week, how much money can he make at most? A．150 yuan. B．210 yuan. C．360 yuan. 3．What does Cao Ting learn from the pets? A．He should make the pets feel comfortable. B．People have safe relationships with their pets. C．It’s important to understand the pets’ behaviors. 4．How does Cao Ting avoid getting into trouble with his customers? A．By communicating openly. B．By working with the owners. C．By bringing a camera himself. 5．What is Cao Ting’s attitude to the job of pet-sitting? A．He is full of hope for his job. B．He will pay more attention to his health. C．He may find chances to get a part-time job. 【答案】1．A 2．B 3．C 4．A 5．A 【导语】本文体裁是记叙文 。主要介绍了成都28岁的宠物保姆曹婷从事该工作三年，讲述其提供的服务、工作报酬，分享从照顾宠物中获得的感悟，提及工作中面临的财产安全等问题及应对措施，还表明他对宠物保姆市场未来充满希望。 1．细节理解题。根据“I offer services like feeding, bathing, walking dogs, playing with the pets, and other tasks as requested by the owners”可知，宠物保姆的工作是照顾宠物。故选A。 2．细节理解题。根据“Every time Cao works for 40 minutes to an hour, he is paid 50 to 70 yuan”，曹 Ting 一周工作三次，每次最多按一小时、70元计算，一周最多收入3×70=210元。故选B。 3．细节理解题。根据“One dog’s sensitivity to sound taught him the importance of communicating with the pets and deeply understanding their behaviors to keep safe, comfortable relationships with them”可知，曹 Ting 从宠物身上学到理解宠物行为很重要。故选C。 4．细节理解题。根据“Cao keeps open communication with his customers to avoid getting into trouble”可知，曹 Ting 通过开放沟通来避免与客户产生麻烦。故选A。 5．观点态度题。根据“Cao remains hopeful about the future - pet - sitting market”可知，曹 Ting 对宠物保姆这份工作充满希望。故选A。 （6） （2025·山西晋中·三模）请阅读下面语篇，从每小题所给的A、B、C三个选项中，选出一个最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 It was a bright, sunny Saturday.

The telescope, which only cost 70 yuan to make, helps him to see the moon’s surface. His interest in physics and space made him create this telescope. After learning about telescopes in his physics class, he decided to make one himself. He didn’t have a lot of money so he had to be creative to find the materials. He bought lenses online, and collected recyclable materials for the rest. Ma faced many difficulties along the way. First, he used cardboard to make a lens cone, as taught in class, but it didn’t work well. With his teacher’s advice, he used a plastic pipe (管). When he set up the eyepiece, which was much smaller than the pipe’s opening, he had to try many times to make sure it fit and could be adjusted (调整) easily. After failing many times, Ma finally succeeded. His telescope has a magnification (放大镜) of 90 times, allowing him to clearly see the moon’s surface. This is more powerful than many common telescopes. Most of them usually have a magnification of 20 to 50 times. “Seeing the moon’s surface through my telescope made me feel so excited and proud,” said Ma. “With enough effort, even with little money, anyone can create something amazing.” 1．Why did Ma make a telescope by himself? A．Because his teacher asked him to do that. B．Because he took part in a science competition. C．Because he had an interest in physics and space. 2．How did Ma get most materials?

At first, I thought Lucy was able to ride her bike along the track, but she quickly found that her bike was too low to the ground and kept getting stuck on the top of the bumps. Lucy looked at me with fear because she was still a biking newbie (新手). I tried to encourage her, but really, I was thinking this is going to be a disaster. Because I thought she would get hurt. More because I didn’t think she would be able to pick up enough speed to balance. And then she would get really discouraged and give up quickly. I imagined her throwing her bicycle to the ground and then crying all the way home. But I was only half right. Lucy did have a lot of trouble riding the bike. She couldn’t find her balance. She fell many times. At one point, she almost started crying because younger kids were getting angry that she was slowing everyone else down. But she did not give up. She kept picking herself up and trying again. She even took the bike off the track and into the main park to practice pushing off and picking up speed on a flat ground. When she felt more confident, she came back. Then she did it over and over again until she finally reached her goal of going around the whole track without falling once. Then she didn’t want to leave and everyone was cheering her on. This was not a day that ended in a disaster. It was a day when Lucy learned that perseverance would pay off. 1．Why did Lucy’s bike get stuck on the bumps? A．The track was too narrow. B．Her bike was too low to the ground. C．The bumps were too slippery. 2．What did Lucy do to improve her biking skills? A．She asked for help from younger kids. B．She chose a new bike to practice again. C．She practiced pushing off and gaining speed on flat ground. 3．Why did the author think the day might become a disaster? A．Lucy was scared of the park. B．The author worried Lucy would lose confidence. C．The bike track was closing early. 4．What does the underlined word “perseverance” mean in the story? A．Continuing to try difficulties. B．Practicing only once. C．Being afraid of challenges. 5．What does the story want to tell readers? A．Bike tracks are fun but dangerous. B．Never giving up helps overcome challenges. C．Younger kids are often unkind. 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．B 4．A 5．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了Lucy在公园骑自行车时遇到困难，但通过坚持不懈的练习最终成功的故事。 1．细节理解题。根据第一段“she quickly found that her bike was too low to the ground and kept getting stuck on the top of the bumps”可知，自行车被卡住的原因是离地面太近。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据第三段“She even took the bike off the track and into the main park to practice pushing off and picking up speed on a flat ground.”可知，Lucy通过平地上的练习提升了技能。故选C。 3．推理判断题。根据第二段“More because I didn’t think she would be able to pick up enough speed to balance. And then she would get really discouraged and give up quickly.”可知，作者认为Lucy没有足够的速度来保持平衡，这会导致她不断失败，然后她会变得非常沮丧，很快放弃。由此推知，作者认为这一天可能会变成一场灾难，是因为作者担心Lucy会因失败而失去信心。故选B。 4．词义猜测题。根据第三段“But she did not give up. She kept picking herself up and trying again. She even took the bike off the track and into the main park to practice pushing off and picking up speed on a flat ground. When she felt more confident, she came back. Then she did it over and over again until she finally reached her goal of going around the whole track without falling once.”可知，在困难面前，Lucy并没有放弃，而是不断练习、不断尝试，最终获得了成功；结合最后一段“It was a day when Lucy learned that perseverance would pay off.”可推知，Lucy学会了在困难中持续努力会有回报。因此，perseverance意为continuing to try difficulties。故选A。 5．主旨大意题。通过全文Lucy克服困难的过程可知，故事想传达“永不放弃才能战胜挑战”的道理。故选B。 （10） （2025·山西晋中·二模）请阅读下面材料，从每小题所给的A、B、C三个选项中，选出一个最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 When it comes to kindness, we often say it’s the thought that matters. This story about an old man and his lamp perfectly shows why true kindness needs no reason. In a small mountain village, there lived an old man who always carried a lamp wherever he went. What seemed strangest was that he carried it even when the sun was bright. Children would follow him, laughing and asking, “Grandpa, why carry a lamp in daytime?” The old man would stop, adjust his glasses, and give his usual answer: “Child, this light isn’t for sunny days. It’s for when the darkness comes suddenly.” Then came the night that showed he was right. One stormy night, thick clouds covered the moon. The whole village became pitch black. People moved around in the dark, calling out in fear. Suddenly, they saw a warm yellow light moving through the streets. It was the old man, walking slowly with his lamp, lighting the path for everyone. One by one, villagers followed the light to safety. The bread maker brought his family toward it. The teacher gathered her students near its glow. Even the village doctor used it to find his way to a sick child’s home. At that moment, the villagers understood. The lamp had never been for the old man - it was his way of caring for others before they even knew they needed help. Now, the village elders tell this story to children. “Kindness isn’t about waiting until someone asks,” they say. “Like the old man’s lamp, the best help comes from seeing others’ needs first.” The old man’s simple lamp teaches us that true kindness shines brightest when given without waiting for thanks. 1．Why did the old man carry a lamp during sunny days? A．Because he was afraid of the dark. B．Because the village had no electricity at night. C．To be ready to help others when darkness came. 2．What can we infer about the old man’s personality from the story? A．He didn’t like talking to other villagers. B．He enjoyed being the center of attention. C．He was thoughtful and always prepared to help. 3．What might have happened if the old man hadn’t carried his lamp that night? A．The storm would have stopped sooner. B．People might have gotten hurt in the darkness. C．The villagers would have found other light sources. 4．The author described the detail about the children laughing at the old man to _______. A．explain why the old man lived alone B．show how children can be cruel sometimes C．make the old man’s later actions seem more meaningful 5．What does the storm in the story symbolically represent? A．The changing of seasons. B．The anger of the villagers. C．The challenges and difficulties in life. 【答案】1．C 2．C 3．B 4．C 5．C 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲了一位老人总在晴天携带灯，最终在暴风雨夜用灯光帮助村民安全度过黑暗，这一故事告诉我们真正的善良是提前察觉他人需求并无私给予帮助，无需等待感恩。 1．细节理解题。根据“The old man would stop, adjust his glasses, and give his usual answer: ‘Child, this light isn’t for sunny days.

During lunch breaks, she wrote her first book, which came out in 2016. Then she published (出版) a series of magic books. In the 2024 book, we meet a boy. He is taken into a secret world filled with strange animals with magic. He soon discovers he can call out those animals by using his energy connected with different feelings. The idea behind the book came from Bell’s strong wish to learn more about the mysteries of science. Bell says, “Even though the book has magic, it is rooted in science.” Bell’s favorite subject at school was science, and she has always believed that magic has a lot to do with science. “People study science. It is full of mystery and the unknown. That feels a lot like magic,” she says. In the 2025 book, we join the boy again as he learns how to improve his skills to call out the animals at a school. Bell says that if she could choose any animal to call out, it would be an “everwing”, which is born from hope. “I can fly, on its back! Hope and imagination have great power. They give me wings to realize my dream.” Bell says science also comes from human curiosity (好奇心) and imagination, which are similar to the hope that creates magic in the story. She hopes her books can encourage young readers to learn more about science. 1．When did Bell’s first book come out? A．In 2016. B．In 2024. C．In 2025. 2．Which can best explain the underlined words “is rooted in”? A．Gets ideas from. B．Pays attention to. C．Makes progress in. 3．Why would Bell like to choose “everwing”?

A．Science depends on magic. B．Magic can be turned into science. C．Science and magic have something in common. 5．What is Bell’s purpose of writing the two magic books? A．To open the door to the magic world for readers. B．To guide readers to enjoy magic and value science. C．To tell readers science is the most important school subject. （2） （2024·山西·中考真题）请阅读下面语篇，从每小题所给的A、B、C三个选项中，选出一个最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 For Emma, PE class was the most difficult part.

The bookstore had been in the neighborhood for 50 years, and it was a great place where people could connect through their love of books. When I met Old Tim, the store’s owner, he told me it was difficult to run（运营）a traditional bookstore. Most young people preferred reading e-books and more people bought books online. Childhood memories came back to me so clearly. A group of us kids often went to the store. We looked at the new books, or just talked with Tim. We spent hours reading there. Tim encouraged us to share our ideas by writing them on a large board. A few months later, I was back and was surprised to see that the Bright Bookstore was still open for business. It was still old, but inside it was like a different world. In an area, a book reading was going on. Nearby, some readers were sharing their ideas on a screen instead of the large board. Some were reading on computers. It even had a coffee shop selling nice food. Clearly, the Bright Bookstore was in good, creative hands. Tim told me that there were more community events in the coffee shop such as book readings and even concerts and movie nights. The bookstore was turned into a place where the book lovers got together and shared ideas and experiences. “Well, as you can see, technology and creativity have brought my old bookstore into the 21st century! I’m so glad to see that everything I wanted it to offer to the community is still here,” said Tim. No matter how times change, there are always people who love reading. With the development of technology, traditional bookstores should also change in a creative way. 1．What made the writer sad about the old Bright Bookstore? A．No kids read in it. B．It was closing. C．It moved to another place. 2．Why did the writer miss the old bookstore? A．Because he had a good time working there. B．Because the owner often read stories to him. C．Because it brought him back to the good old days. 3．How was the bookstore different a few months later? A．The board helped people share ideas easily. B．The coffee shop brought people closer together. C．The new look from the outside surprised people. 4．What did Old Tim want the bookstore to offer? A．A way for the neighbors to sell food. B．A chance for the kids to show their skills. C．A place for the book lovers to read and share. 5．What does the writer want to remind us? A．E-books will take the place of paper books.

C．Traditional bookstores will disappear in the future. （4） （2021·山西·中考真题）请阅读下面短文，从每小题所给的A, B, C三个选项中，选出一个最佳选项，并在答题卡上将选项涂黑。 When looking at a pair of old chopsticks, most people would see nothing but waste.

In the past, most people would ask their friends to take care of their pets. But now, you can also find professionals who offer in-home pet-sitting services, known as “pet sitters”. Cao Ting, 28, is a pet sitter from Chengdu who has been working as a pet sitter for three years. “I offer services like feeding, bathing, walking dogs, playing with the pets, and other tasks as requested by the owners,” said Cao. Every time Cao works for 40 minutes to an hour, he is paid 50 to 70 yuan. While caring for pets, Cao realized how special each pet is. One dog’s sensitivity (敏感) to sound taught him the importance of communicating with the pets and deeply understanding their behaviors to keep safe, comfortable relationships with them.

Besides, pet sitters usually register on platforms with their personal information. So if there’s any problem, it can be solved directly. Cao keeps open communication with his customers to avoid getting into trouble. The income of pet sitters is likely to change all the time, and most pet sitters take this work as a part-time job.

There will be lots of new chances in the future,” said Cao. 1．What does a pet sitter do? A．Taking care of pets. B．Looking after sick pets.

The telescope, which only cost 70 yuan to make, helps him to see the moon’s surface. His interest in physics and space made him create this telescope. After learning about telescopes in his physics class, he decided to make one himself. He didn’t have a lot of money so he had to be creative to find the materials. He bought lenses online, and collected recyclable materials for the rest. Ma faced many difficulties along the way. First, he used cardboard to make a lens cone, as taught in class, but it didn’t work well. With his teacher’s advice, he used a plastic pipe (管). When he set up the eyepiece, which was much smaller than the pipe’s opening, he had to try many times to make sure it fit and could be adjusted (调整) easily. After failing many times, Ma finally succeeded. His telescope has a magnification (放大镜) of 90 times, allowing him to clearly see the moon’s surface. This is more powerful than many common telescopes. Most of them usually have a magnification of 20 to 50 times. “Seeing the moon’s surface through my telescope made me feel so excited and proud,” said Ma. “With enough effort, even with little money, anyone can create something amazing.” 1．Why did Ma make a telescope by himself?

At first, I thought Lucy was able to ride her bike along the track, but she quickly found that her bike was too low to the ground and kept getting stuck on the top of the bumps. Lucy looked at me with fear because she was still a biking newbie (新手). I tried to encourage her, but really, I was thinking this is going to be a disaster. Because I thought she would get hurt.

This story about an old man and his lamp perfectly shows why true kindness needs no reason. In a small mountain village, there lived an old man who always carried a lamp wherever he went. What seemed strangest was that he carried it even when the sun was bright. Children would follow him, laughing and asking, “Grandpa, why carry a lamp in daytime?” The old man would stop, adjust his glasses, and give his usual answer: “Child, this light isn’t for sunny days. It’s for when the darkness comes suddenly.” Then came the night that showed he was right. One stormy night, thick clouds covered the moon. The whole village became pitch black. People moved around in the dark, calling out in fear. Suddenly, they saw a warm yellow light moving through the streets. It was the old man, walking slowly with his lamp, lighting the path for everyone. One by one, villagers followed the light to safety. The bread maker brought his family toward it. The teacher gathered her students near its glow. Even the village doctor used it to find his way to a sick child’s home. At that moment, the villagers understood. The lamp had never been for the old man - it was his way of caring for others before they even knew they needed help. Now, the village elders tell this story to children. “Kindness isn’t about waiting until someone asks,” they say. “Like the old man’s lamp, the best help comes from seeing others’ needs first.” The old man’s simple lamp teaches us that true kindness shines brightest when given without waiting for thanks. 1．Why did the old man carry a lamp during sunny days? A．Because he was afraid of the dark. B．Because the village had no electricity at night. C．To be ready to help others when darkness came. 2．What can we infer about the old man’s personality from the story? A．He didn’t like talking to other villagers. B．He enjoyed being the center of attention. C．He was thoughtful and always prepared to help. 3．What might have happened if the old man hadn’t carried his lamp that night? A．The storm would have stopped sooner. B．People might have gotten hurt in the darkness. C．The villagers would have found other light sources. 4．The author described the detail about the children laughing at the old man to _______. A．explain why the old man lived alone B．show how children can be cruel sometimes C．make the old man’s later actions seem more meaningful 5．What does the storm in the story symbolically represent?
