专题02 阅读理解（说明文） 主题01 人与社会——科普知识 Passage 1 （24-25九年级上·吉林省长春市朝阳区长春外国语学校·期末） In small towns, people are used to saying hello to their neighbors in stores, on the streets and in front of their homes. In today’s city life, people may feel uncomfortable talking to neighbors they do not know well in line at the supermarket. But greeting your neighbors is actually good for you, especially if you say hello to six people, according to a recent survey. Saying hello to people increases well-being (幸福), but six is the magic number. The well-being score increases from zero to six and then there are no further increases. These results are part of the Gallup National Health and Well-Being Index which studies overall well-being and is calculated on a scale of  (在……范围内) 0 to 100. The survey was carried out from May 30th to June 6th, 2023 and was based on the answers from 4,556 Americans. It covered social well-being, physical well-being, community well-being and more. People who said they didn’t say hello to anyone in their neighborhood scored a 51.5. People who greeted six neighbors had a score of 64.1. You might think that saying hello to neighbors is only about social well-being, but that actually isn’t the case. In fact, regular (经常的) greetings also improve a person’s physical well-being and community well-being. ▲ You will be more likely to speak to people if you think your community is safe. Your physical well-being can improve if you are getting out and walking around your neighborhood. “We don’t require that you know the person well; just stop and talk to him,” said Dan Witters, the survey’s director, “But the more people to whom you say hello, the greater the probability is that you’re actually going to start a conversation with them.” While this is just a survey for now, saying hello on a regular basis is a good way to improve your own well-being. 根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。 1．How does the writer introduce the topic? A．By telling a story. B．By doing research. C．By raising a question. D．By comparing different scenes. 2．Which of the following may show the change in the well-being score? A．B．C． D． 3．Which sentence can be put in ________? A．That’s because all of these are connected. B．It’s best to greet your neighbors in the morning. C．You can even make friends by greeting neighbors. D．Different neighbors can greet you in different ways. 4．What can we learn from Dan Witters’ words? A．People should greet each neighbor. B．Neighbors don’t need to know each other. C．Saying hello helps people start a conversation. D．Nothing improves happiness more than conversations. 5．What’s the best title of the passage? A．The Power of Saying Hello B．The Advantages of Living in Small Towns C．How to Make Friends with Neighbors D．The Connection Between Greetings and Safety 【答案】1．D 2．B 3．A 4．C 5．A 【导语】本文讲述了向邻居打招呼对提升个人幸福感（包括社交幸福感、身体健康幸福感和社区幸福感）的积极影响。 1．推理判断题。根据“In small towns, people are used to saying hello to their neighbors in stores, on the streets and in front of their homes. In today’s city life…”可知文中首先通过对比小镇和城市的问候文化引入话题，故选D。 2．细节理解题。根据“The well-being score increases from zero to six and then there are no further increases.”可知幸福感会随着向邻居问候人数的增加而提高，直到六人后不再上升，所以选B图示符合这种变化趋势。故选B。 3．推理判断题。根据“In fact, regular (经常的) greetings also improve a person’s physical well-being and community well-being.”可知事实上，定期问候还可以改善一个人的身体健康和社区幸福感，接下来应解释原因，选项A“那是因为所有这些都是相互关联的。”符合，故选A。 4．细节理解题。根据“But the more people to whom you say hello, the greater the probability is that you’re actually going to start a conversation with them.”可知Dan Witters认为问候有助于人们开始对话，故选C。 5．最佳标题题。文章主要讨论了问候对幸福感的影响，所以最佳题目是A，“问候的力量”。故选A。 Passage 2 （24-25九年级上·吉林省长春市朝阳区·期末） FIRST AID FOR BURNS Degree of burns I      Ⅱ      III TreatmentIf you have a first-degree burn, follow these steps：①Cool the burn area under cool running water. ②Remove jewellery (去除配饰) and any clothing unless stuck to the burn. ③Apply (涂抹) a burn ointment or aloe vera.

It is the first solar-powered car that can travel off-road for long distances (距离) without needing a charging station (充电站). ②The students are known as Solar Team Eindhoven, and the car they invented is called Stella Terra. In order to create a car that could deal with the kind of difficult driving the team was planning for, the students had to design the whole car, from top to bottom. ③There are solar panels (太阳能电池板) on the top of the car. Most solar panels are only about 20% efficient. That means they waste about 80% of the sunlight they get. But Stella Terra’s solar panels are 97% efficient. They waste far less sunlight than even the best solar panels you can buy. ④Like most electric cars, Stella Terra stores energy in a battery (电池). Thanks to its powerful solar panels and its battery, when it’s sunny, the car can run for 710 kilometers a day. ⑤Several days ago, the team took the car on its biggest test—a 1,000-kilometer test drive across Morocco. The car had to travel through forests as well as dry riverbeds. It had to drive across the desert and up the mountains. The car succeeded in doing all of these—and all without ever stopping at a charging station. But the students think it will take 5—10 years before car companies are able to build a similar car. “We are pushing the limits of technology,” said Wisse Bos, the team’s manager. 根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。 1．What does Stella Terra run on? A．Solar energy. B．Wind energy. C．Water energy. D．Heat energy. 2．What does the underlined word “efficient” mean in this passage? A．Doing something well with no waste of energy. B．Doing something well with no waste of time. C．Doing something well with no waste of money. D．Doing something well with no waste of love. 3．How much more efficient is Stella Terra’s solar panel compared with most solar panels? A．17%. B．60%. C．77%. D．88%. 4．What can we infer (推断) from this passage? A．The price of Stella Terra will become higher and higher. B．More and more people will stop buying solar-powered cars. C．Stella Terra may stand for the future of new energy cars. D．Stella Terra will disappear in five-ten years. 5．What is the best structure of the passage? A．①/②③④/⑤ B．①②/③④/⑤ C．①/②③④⑤ D．①②③/④⑤ 【答案】1．A 2．A 3．C 4．C 5．C 【导语】本文讲述了一组荷兰学生设计并制造了一辆名为Stella Terra的太阳能汽车，该车能够在没有充电站的情况下长距离越野行驶。 1．细节理解题。根据“It is the first solar-powered car that can travel off-road for long distances (距离) without needing a charging station (充电站).”可知，Stella Terra是一辆使用太阳能作为动力的车。故选A。 2．词句猜测题。根据“Most solar panels are only about 20% efficient. That means they waste about 80% of the sunlight they get.”以及“But Stella Terra’s solar panels are 97% efficient.”可知，此处描述太阳能板的效率。故选A。 3．细节理解题。据“Most solar panels are only about 20% efficient. That means they waste about 80% of the sunlight they get.”以及“But Stella Terra ’s solar panels are 97% efficient.”可知，大多数太阳能电池板的效率只有20%左右，但是Stella Terra的太阳能电池板的效率是97%。故97%-20%=77%。故选C。 4．推理判断题。根据“But the students think it will take 5—10 years before car companies are able to build a similar car.”及“‘We are pushing the limits of technology,’ said Wisse Bos, the team’s manager.”可以推断，这种太阳能汽车可能代表了新型能源汽车的未来趋势。故选C。 5．篇章结构题。通读全文可知，第一段先引出主题，讲述了一组荷兰学生设计并制造了一辆的太阳能汽车。第二、三、四、五段，分别介绍了这辆太阳能汽车的设计、太阳能板、功能以及通过的测试。故这篇文章的结构为“总—分”结构。故选C。 Passage 2 （24-25九年级上·吉林省长春市新区·期末） Could you imagine being in a car driven by a computer, not a human? Recently, China has made a big stop toward self—driving technology. Since August, 2024, driverless taxis can run on roads in Wuhan, Chongqing and Shenzhen. Why do we develop self-driving cars? Self-driving cars bring us many benefits. They use computers to sense the things around them and make better use of space. This means fewer traffic jams and better parking of cars. For blind or disabled people, self-driving cars can also help them get around more easily. According to official statistics, each year, more than 1.35 million people are killed on roads around the world, and more are injured. It’s reported that self-driving cars could reduce (减少) road accidents by 90% and save governments a lot of money. The main cause of car accidents is the human mistakes. By using computers, self-driving cars don’t make poor decisions or lose focus like humans do. But self-driving cars aren’t perfect. If something unexpected on the road happens, self-driving cars can’t react (反应) as fast as a human driver could. Also, during weather events like heavy snow, self-driving cars wouldn’t see the lines on the road easily. It might lead to an accident. The car’s computer system would be broken by someone, causing it to crash or change its direction. It’s clear that there is still a long way to go to make self-driving cars a common and sate sight on our roads. And China is taking the lead in making this happen, said China Daily. 根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。 1．What’s NOT the benefit (好处) of self—driving cars? A．They don’t make poor decisions. B．They can react as fast as a human driver could. C．They can make the road accidents fewer and fewer. D．They use computers to sense the things around them and make better use of space. 2．What does the underlined word “them” in paragraph 3 refer to? A．Self-driving cars. B．The computer system. C．Blind or disabled people. D．Traffic jams. 3．We can infer (推断) that China ________ in self-driving technology. A．will make greater progress B．helped many other countries C．is going to cut its total costs D．is skilled in making cars 4．The writer writes the text to ________. A．encourage more people to buy self-driving cars B．tell people several good points of self-driving cars C．introduce the present situation of self-driving cars D．tell people the bad points of self-driving cars 5．In which part of a newspaper can we see the passage? A．Technology B．Sports C．Culture D．Environment 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．A 4．C 5．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了自动驾驶汽车的现状、好处以及存在的问题。 1．细节理解题。根据“But self-driving cars aren’t perfect. If something unexpected on the road happens, self-driving cars can’t react as fast as a human driver could.”可知，如果路上发生意外情况，自动驾驶汽车的反应速度无法像人类司机那样快，因此选项B“它们可以像人类司机一样快速反应”是不正确的。故选B。 2．词句猜测题。根据“For blind or disabled people, self-driving cars can also help them get around more easily.”可知，对于盲人或残疾人来说，自动驾驶汽车也可以帮助他们更轻松地出行。这里的“them”指的是盲人或残疾人。故选C。 3．推理判断题。根据“It’s clear that there is still a long way to go to make self-driving cars a common and safe sight on our roads. And China is taking the lead in making this happen”可知，要让自动驾驶汽车成为我们道路上常见而安全的景象，还有很长的路要走，中国正在率先实现这一目标，由此可知，中国将在自动驾驶技术方面取得更大的进步。故选A。 4．主旨大意题。根据“Self-driving cars bring us many benefits.”和“But self-driving cars aren’t perfect.”可知，本文主要介绍自动驾驶汽车的现状，包括自动驾驶汽车的优势和劣势。故选C。 5．推理判断题。这篇文章主要介绍了自动驾驶汽车的现状、好处以及存在的问题，属于科技类话题。因此，我们可以推断这篇文章会出现在报纸的科技版块。故选A。 主题03 人与社会——中华文化 Passage 1 （23九年级上·四川省遂宁市·中考） Peng Jingxuan, a 26-year-old Chinese girl, is now studying in a music university in Paris.

It can help people to get on well with others. As children, we laugh when our parents make faces. Then we start to make others laugh like this. That’s how we learn to play jokes. But is playing jokes only humans’ ability? Scientists have found that some animals also have the ability. Sometimes we see dogs play jokes on each other. They come near slowly and then quickly run away. They may just want to have fun. It is also said that they could deal with their stress this way. Scientists say they have watched young apes (类人猿) play jokes. The young apes quietly follow adult apes and touch them secretly to surprise them. Then they playfully wait and watch what the adults would do. This action is similar to what human children do. Next time, when you find your pets doing something strange around you, maybe they are playing jokes on you. 根据短文内容，判断下列各句正（T）、误（F）。 1．As a universal language, laughter can help people to get on well with others. 2．Not only humans but also some animals have the ability to play jokes. 3．Four kinds of animals are mentioned in the passage. 4．The young apes run away quickly after they touch the adult apes secretly. 5．When we find our pets doing something strange around us, they must be playing jokes on us. 【答案】1．T 2．T 3．F 4．F 5．F 【导语】本文讲述了笑声作为全世界的语言，不仅能帮助人们和睦相处，而且有些动物也具备开玩笑的能力。 1．细节理解题。根据“Laughter is a universal (全世界的) language for humans.

What is an animal sign? It is known as Chinese zodiac (生肖) which is shown by 12 animal signs. In order, they are the Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog and Pig. Western zodiac signs are marked by 12 months according to the calendar, while Chinese animal signs are defined by a 12-year circle (lunar calendar). Chinese zodiac years begin or end on Chinese New Year. Each year in the repeating zodiac cycle of 12 years is shown by a zodiac animal, each with its own traits (特征). 2024 is the year of the Dragon and 2025 is the year of the Snake, starting from January 29th, 2025 and ends on February 16th, 2026. Most Chinese people talk about animal signs because they believe that a person’s personality (性格) and relationships are closely connected to his or her Chinese zodiac sign.

In today’s city life, people may feel uncomfortable talking to neighbors they do not know well in line at the supermarket. But greeting your neighbors is actually good for you, especially if you say hello to six people, according to a recent survey. Saying hello to people increases well-being (幸福), but six is the magic number. The well-being score increases from zero to six and then there are no further increases. These results are part of the Gallup National Health and Well-Being Index which studies overall well-being and is calculated on a scale of  (在……范围内) 0 to 100. The survey was carried out from May 30th to June 6th, 2023 and was based on the answers from 4,556 Americans. It covered social well-being, physical well-being, community well-being and more. People who said they didn’t say hello to anyone in their neighborhood scored a 51.5. People who greeted six neighbors had a score of 64.1. You might think that saying hello to neighbors is only about social well-being, but that actually isn’t the case. In fact, regular (经常的) greetings also improve a person’s physical well-being and community well-being. ▲ You will be more likely to speak to people if you think your community is safe. Your physical well-being can improve if you are getting out and walking around your neighborhood. “We don’t require that you know the person well; just stop and talk to him,” said Dan Witters, the survey’s director, “But the more people to whom you say hello, the greater the probability is that you’re actually going to start a conversation with them.” While this is just a survey for now, saying hello on a regular basis is a good way to improve your own well-being. 根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。 1．How does the writer introduce the topic? A．By telling a story. B．By doing research. C．By raising a question. D．By comparing different scenes. 2．Which of the following may show the change in the well-being score? A．B．C． D． 3．Which sentence can be put in ________? A．That’s because all of these are connected. B．It’s best to greet your neighbors in the morning. C．You can even make friends by greeting neighbors. D．Different neighbors can greet you in different ways. 4．What can we learn from Dan Witters’ words? A．People should greet each neighbor. B．Neighbors don’t need to know each other. C．Saying hello helps people start a conversation. D．Nothing improves happiness more than conversations. 5．What’s the best title of the passage? A．The Power of Saying Hello B．The Advantages of Living in Small Towns C．How to Make Friends with Neighbors D．The Connection Between Greetings and Safety Passage 2 （24-25九年级上·吉林省长春市朝阳区·期末） FIRST AID FOR BURNS Degree of burns I      Ⅱ      III TreatmentIf you have a first-degree burn, follow these steps：①Cool the burn area under cool running water. ②Remove jewellery (去除配饰) and any clothing unless stuck to the burn. ③Apply (涂抹) a burn ointment or aloe vera.

It is the first solar-powered car that can travel off-road for long distances (距离) without needing a charging station (充电站). ②The students are known as Solar Team Eindhoven, and the car they invented is called Stella Terra. In order to create a car that could deal with the kind of difficult driving the team was planning for, the students had to design the whole car, from top to bottom. ③There are solar panels (太阳能电池板) on the top of the car. Most solar panels are only about 20% efficient. That means they waste about 80% of the sunlight they get. But Stella Terra’s solar panels are 97% efficient. They waste far less sunlight than even the best solar panels you can buy. ④Like most electric cars, Stella Terra stores energy in a battery (电池). Thanks to its powerful solar panels and its battery, when it’s sunny, the car can run for 710 kilometers a day. ⑤Several days ago, the team took the car on its biggest test—a 1,000-kilometer test drive across Morocco. The car had to travel through forests as well as dry riverbeds. It had to drive across the desert and up the mountains. The car succeeded in doing all of these—and all without ever stopping at a charging station. But the students think it will take 5—10 years before car companies are able to build a similar car. “We are pushing the limits of technology,” said Wisse Bos, the team’s manager. 根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。 1．What does Stella Terra run on? A．Solar energy. B．Wind energy. C．Water energy. D．Heat energy. 2．What does the underlined word “efficient” mean in this passage? A．Doing something well with no waste of energy. B．Doing something well with no waste of time. C．Doing something well with no waste of money. D．Doing something well with no waste of love. 3．How much more efficient is Stella Terra’s solar panel compared with most solar panels? A．17%. B．60%. C．77%. D．88%. 4．What can we infer (推断) from this passage? A．The price of Stella Terra will become higher and higher. B．More and more people will stop buying solar-powered cars. C．Stella Terra may stand for the future of new energy cars. D．Stella Terra will disappear in five-ten years. 5．What is the best structure of the passage? A．①/②③④/⑤ B．①②/③④/⑤ C．①/②③④⑤ D．①②③/④⑤ Passage 2 （24-25九年级上·吉林省长春市新区·期末） Could you imagine being in a car driven by a computer, not a human? Recently, China has made a big stop toward self—driving technology. Since August, 2024, driverless taxis can run on roads in Wuhan, Chongqing and Shenzhen. Why do we develop self-driving cars? Self-driving cars bring us many benefits. They use computers to sense the things around them and make better use of space. This means fewer traffic jams and better parking of cars. For blind or disabled people, self-driving cars can also help them get around more easily. According to official statistics, each year, more than 1.35 million people are killed on roads around the world, and more are injured. It’s reported that self-driving cars could reduce (减少) road accidents by 90% and save governments a lot of money. The main cause of car accidents is the human mistakes. By using computers, self-driving cars don’t make poor decisions or lose focus like humans do. But self-driving cars aren’t perfect. If something unexpected on the road happens, self-driving cars can’t react (反应) as fast as a human driver could. Also, during weather events like heavy snow, self-driving cars wouldn’t see the lines on the road easily. It might lead to an accident. The car’s computer system would be broken by someone, causing it to crash or change its direction. It’s clear that there is still a long way to go to make self-driving cars a common and sate sight on our roads. And China is taking the lead in making this happen, said China Daily. 根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。 1．What’s NOT the benefit (好处) of self—driving cars? A．They don’t make poor decisions. B．They can react as fast as a human driver could. C．They can make the road accidents fewer and fewer. D．They use computers to sense the things around them and make better use of space. 2．What does the underlined word “them” in paragraph 3 refer to? A．Self-driving cars. B．The computer system. C．Blind or disabled people. D．Traffic jams. 3．We can infer (推断) that China ________ in self-driving technology. A．will make greater progress B．helped many other countries C．is going to cut its total costs D．is skilled in making cars 4．The writer writes the text to ________. A．encourage more people to buy self-driving cars B．tell people several good points of self-driving cars C．introduce the present situation of self-driving cars D．tell people the bad points of self-driving cars 5．In which part of a newspaper can we see the passage? A．Technology B．Sports C．Culture D．Environment 主题03 人与社会——中华文化 Passage 1 （23九年级上·四川省遂宁市·中考） Peng Jingxuan, a 26-year-old Chinese girl, is now studying in a music university in Paris.
