Unit 1 阅读理解专项练习 2026-2027学年 外研版英语九年级上册（学生版） Passage 1 Li Hua used to think Beijing Opera was boring. Like many teenagers, he preferred pop music and often changed the TV channel when Beijing Opera was on. He thought it was only for old people. Everything changed when his school organized a Beijing Opera club. Every Friday afternoon, a professional actor came to teach the students. They learned about the four main roles: Sheng, Dan, Jing and Chou. They also practiced basic movements like walking on stage and waving long sleeves. “At first, the singing style was strange to me. The rhythm was hard to follow,” Li Hua said. “But after a few weeks, I began to understand the stories behind the operas. Some are about historical heroes, and some are about beautiful poems.” Now Li Hua and his classmates enjoy Beijing Opera very much. They often discuss the stories during breaks. “I used to think traditional art was old-fashioned, but now I know it is part of our culture. We should protect it,” Li Hua said. “If we don’t learn about it, this art may disappear. It is our duty to pass it on.” Through the club, Li Hua found the beauty of Beijing Opera. He hopes more teenagers will try it. “Understanding our traditional art makes us proud of our country,” he said with a smile. 1．What was Li Hua’s attitude towards Beijing Opera at first?

Passage 2 At the age of 17 years 64 days, Mack Rutherford has become the youngest person to fly around the world alone! Mack’s journey around the world lasted five months and he flew across 52 countries in total. His record-breaking flight began in Sofia, the capital of Bulgaria, on 23 March, 2022. He was 16 years old when he took off and celebrated his 17th birthday by himself in his plane. Mack faced many challenges during his adventure. Because of his small-sized aircraft, he had to land whenever the weather got too terrible. However, at some points he couldn’t land, such as when flying non-stop for 10 hours over an ocean. At other points, he faced extremely hot weather, such as in Dubai. In Sudan, a country in Africa, Mack also faced sandstorms which made it hard for him to see where he was going. Mack battled strong winds and pouring rain during his flight, but he never stopped smiling, joking and updating his followers on his social media account along the way, and managed to fly his plane to safety. And if Mack’s surname “Rutherford” sounds familiar, it’s because his elder sister Zara also flew around the world earlier this year, and still holds the female version of the record! The Rutherford siblings (兄弟姐妹) were inspired by their parents to become pilots. “I have known for certain I wanted to fly since I was eleven,” Mack said, “My dad Sam is a professional ferry pilot, my mum Beatrice is a recreational private pilot.” Mack hopes to inspire young people to begin working towards their own goals, “No matter what background you have, I believe it is never too early to work towards your dreams and you shouldn’t limit yourself by others’ expectations.” With both feet firmly back on the ground now, it’s time for Mack to turn his attention towards catching up on his schoolwork! 4．What challenges did Mack face? A．Limitation of flight hours. B．Darkness and safety issues. C．Bad weather and long distance. D．Loneliness of flying alone. 5．Why did Mack and his sister want to be pilots? A．To live up to their parents’ expectations. B．To encourage each other to dream big. C．To serve as examples for their siblings. D．To model themselves on their parents. 6．What words can we use to describe Mack? A．Patient and caring. B．Talented and persistent. C．Optimistic and strong-willed. D．Adventuresome and careful. Passage 3 Have you heard of the gas station (加油站) workers in Tibet? These workers built “energy blood stations” on the high plateau, having watched great changes in Tibet over 60 years. Tibet is a high-altitude (高海拔) place with thin air and terrible weather. Many gas stations stand at over 4,000 meters above sea level. For example, the Shuanghu Gas Station is at an average altitude (平均海拔) of 5,000 meters. Station manager Suowang often helps drivers in trouble, even driving hundreds of kilometers in heavy winds to send gas. Now, the station has a “driver’s home” and a café, making people’s trips easier. These workers face many difficulties. Some live apart from their families for a long time, and some even risk their lives to protect the gas stations. When an earthquake hit Dingri County, they worked day and night to send gas to the disaster area, bringing hope to people there. Today, CNPC (China National Petroleum Corporation) runs over 200 gas stations in Tibet, offering more than 80% of the area’s needs of gas. Roads are now everywhere, and people can easily get fuel (燃料). These “energy blood stations” not only meet local people’s daily needs but also support Tibet’s development. The workers’ effort has helped Tibet make great progress in just several years. 7．What did the gas workers build on the Tibetan plateau? A．Hospitals. B．“Energy blood stations”. C．High blood test station. D．Airports. 8．What does Suowang often do for drivers? A．He helps them out of trouble. B．He teaches them to drive. C．He sells cars to them. D．He cleans their cars. 9．What does the writer think of these gas workers? A．Lazy and careless. B．Humorous but believable. C．Helpful and hard-working. D．Brave but impolite. Passage 4 Ayi is a 22-year-old girl from Kashgar, Xinjiang. She became well-known in a new season of the TV programme, which tells people how young people build their careers after leaving school. The programme followed 12 students who studied Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). As the youngest one, Ayi at first was unnoticed. By the end of the season, however, she surprised all with her great progress. Ayi was not from a family of doctors. Her earliest interest in traditional medicine was awakened in her old town. In that place, people believed mutton soup cured illness faster than seeing doctors in hospital. When her grandmother died of illness, she realized good doctors are needed in this place. That was when she decided to become one to serve the people there. In 2018, thanks to an education program for Xinjiang middle school students, Ayi had a chance to study in a Shenzhen high school. Three years later, she was accepted by Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine. However, the road to becoming a TCM doctor was never easy. For her, it’s especially difficult to understand ancient Chinese medical books. “Terms (术语), like yin and yang, were totally a new way of thinking. So I was always half a step behind my classmates,” Ayi said. To catch up, she put in more time and developed a study method of her own. Along with her schoolwork, Ayi got practical experience by taking part in more than 13 volunteer activities. Ayi’s greatest dream is to return to Xinjiang and use her TCM knowledge to serve local people. “Back in Kashgar, I know many people don’t look for medical care, so I believe it’s deeply meaningful to use TCM, which is simple, cheap and works well,” Ayi said. 10．Why did Ayi become famous in the TV programme? A．Because she made great progress. B．Because she learned TCM by herself. C．Because she is the youngest one. D．Because she got best scores in the school. 11．What made Ayi decide to be a doctor? A．The dream of her family. B．The medical needs in her hometown. C．The advice from her grandmother. D．The visit to the local hospital. 12．Which word can best describe Ayi? A．Honest. B．Friendly. C．Hard-working. D．Humorous. 13．What is the best title of the text? A．A Journey into TCM. B．The changes in TCM. C．A Programme About Dreams. D．The Meaning of Volunteer Work. Passage 5 Dr. Wang, a famous scientist from Tsinghua University, visited a middle school in Beijing last month. She gave a talk to the students about science and life. Dr. Wang dressed casually and spoke in a friendly way. She wanted to tell the students that scientists are not just serious people in white coats.

She also talked about the challenges in scientific research. “Success doesn’t come easily. Scientists often face failures. Learning to deal with disappointment is an important part of our job,” Dr. Wang said. During the talk, Dr. Wang did some simple experiments with the students. She encouraged them to ask questions and think independently. “The earlier you develop an interest in science, the better. It will help you make wise choices in the future,” she told the students. The visit was part of a national program called “Scientists into Classrooms”. The program aims to bring more science role models to teenagers and inspire them to pursue science careers.

Zhang was born with a weak heart. Doctors said he might never be able to do sports like other children. However, he refused to let his condition define his life. Instead of giving up, he focused on his studies and discovered a talent for computer programming. At the age of 12, Zhang started learning coding by himself. He watched free online courses and practiced for hours every day. His hard work paid off when he won a national programming competition at 14. His achievement attracted the attention of a local tech company, which offered him a scholarship to attend special training classes. Now, Zhang is developing a mobile app to help people with disabilities communicate more easily. “Technology has changed my life,” he said. “I want to use my skills to help others who face similar challenges.” Zhang’s story has inspired many teenagers in his hometown.

Family pressure may come from parents’ high expectations. Social pressure involves fitting in with friends and keeping up with popular trends. Too much pressure can cause mental health problems like anxiety and sadness. So how can teenagers deal with pressure? First, talk to someone you trust, such as parents, teachers or friends. Sharing your feelings can make you feel better. Second, do something you enjoy, like playing sports, reading or drawing. Hobbies can help you relax and reduce stress. Third, learn to manage your time well. Make a plan for study and rest, and stick to it. Remember, pressure is normal, but you don’t have to face it alone.

These dreams can be very big, like becoming the winner of the Nobel Prize. Or they can be small—you may just want to become one of the best students in your class. For example, you want to be a reporter. But you’re not very good at some school subjects, and you don’t do well in talking with others. So it is not easy for you to become a reporter. At a moment like this, never tell yourself it’s impossible. As you know, these kinds of ideas can stop you from making your dream come true. Andrew Matthews, an Australian writer, tells us that it is life’s biggest challenge to make our dreams come true. No matter what your dream is, if you find one, try to make it come true. The first thing you must do is to remember what your dream is. Don’t let it leave your heart. Keep telling yourself what you want and want to be. Then, do this step by step because a big dream is made up of many small ones. Also, you must never give up your dream. There will be many difficulties on the road to your dreams. You need to decide what is the most important. Working hard will bring you better exam results, but wasting time never will. Maybe this can make you get closer to your dream. 26．What can we know about teenagers’ dreams from Paragraph 1? A．Teenagers’ dreams are always very big.

B．We don’t need to care about difficulties in our life. C．We should make our dream come true step by step. D．Wasting time sometimes helps us get closer to dreams. 30．What is the main idea of the passage? A．How teenagers can make their dreams come true. B．Different kinds of teenagers’ dreams. C．Why teenagers have so many different dreams. D．What teenagers’ biggest life challenge is. Passage 9 Hobbies are an important part of a teenager’s life. They not only help teenagers relax but also help them develop important skills. For example, playing a musical instrument can improve a teenager’s memory and attention. It also teaches them patience and discipline. Painting helps teenagers develop their creativity and ability to think critically. Sports like basketball or swimming can keep teenagers healthy and teach them teamwork. Many teenagers say that their hobbies help them deal with stress. When they do something they love, they forget about their school problems. Hobbies also help teenagers make friends. They can join clubs or groups with people who share the same interests. But some teenagers don’t have hobbies because they think they are “not good enough” at something. Dr. Wang says that it doesn’t matter if you are not perfect. “The most important thing is to enjoy the activity and learn something new,” he says. 31．What can playing a musical instrument improve?

Many young inventors are creating things to help their communities. For example, a group of high school students in India developed a low-cost water purifier (净化器) for villages with dirty water. Another teenager, from the UK, invented a special app that helps people with hearing loss to “feel” sounds through vibrations (振动). These young creators are not just thinkers; they are doers. They see a problem and take action. They are not afraid to fail and learn from their mistakes. Many educators believe that encouraging curiosity (好奇心) is more important than just teaching facts. They say that if we give teenagers the space to explore, they will surprise us with their bright ideas. One of the greatest examples is a 16-year-old boy from Australia who used his knowledge of coding (编程) to make a website that connects lonely elderly people with young volunteers for chats. This not only helps the elderly feel less lonely but also helps teenagers understand the value of responsibility and care. As one teacher said, “So full of energy are our teenagers that they can truly change the world for the better.” 36．What is the main idea of the passage? A．Teenagers can only be thinkers, not doers.

A．发明 B．探索 C．解决 D．隐藏 40．The Australian teenager’s website is to ________. A．help teenagers make money B．connect lonely elderly with young volunteers C．help people with hearing loss D．teach people how to code 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ Unit 1 阅读理解专项练习 2026-2027学年 外研版英语九年级上册（教师版） Passage 1 Li Hua used to think Beijing Opera was boring.

This pressure comes from school, family and society. School pressure includes exams, homework and the need to get good grades. Family pressure may come from parents’ high expectations. Social pressure involves fitting in with friends and keeping up with popular trends. Too much pressure can cause mental health problems like anxiety and sadness. So how can teenagers deal with pressure? First, talk to someone you trust, such as parents, teachers or friends. Sharing your feelings can make you feel better. Second, do something you enjoy, like playing sports, reading or drawing. Hobbies can help you relax and reduce stress. Third, learn to manage your time well. Make a plan for study and rest, and stick to it. Remember, pressure is normal, but you don’t have to face it alone. Ask for help when you need it. 22．Where does teenagers’ pressure come from?

These dreams can be very big, like becoming the winner of the Nobel Prize. Or they can be small—you may just want to become one of the best students in your class. For example, you want to be a reporter. But you’re not very good at some school subjects, and you don’t do well in talking with others. So it is not easy for you to become a reporter. At a moment like this, never tell yourself it’s impossible. As you know, these kinds of ideas can stop you from making your dream come true. Andrew Matthews, an Australian writer, tells us that it is life’s biggest challenge to make our dreams come true. No matter what your dream is, if you find one, try to make it come true. The first thing you must do is to remember what your dream is. Don’t let it leave your heart. Keep telling yourself what you want and want to be. Then, do this step by step because a big dream is made up of many small ones. Also, you must never give up your dream. There will be many difficulties on the road to your dreams. You need to decide what is the most important. Working hard will bring you better exam results, but wasting time never will.

Many young inventors are creating things to help their communities. For example, a group of high school students in India developed a low-cost water purifier (净化器) for villages with dirty water. Another teenager, from the UK, invented a special app that helps people with hearing loss to “feel” sounds through vibrations (振动). These young creators are not just thinkers; they are doers. They see a problem and take action. They are not afraid to fail and learn from their mistakes. Many educators believe that encouraging curiosity (好奇心) is more important than just teaching facts. They say that if we give teenagers the space to explore, they will surprise us with their bright ideas. One of the greatest examples is a 16-year-old boy from Australia who used his knowledge of coding (编程) to make a website that connects lonely elderly people with young volunteers for chats. This not only helps the elderly feel less lonely but also helps teenagers understand the value of responsibility and care. As one teacher said, “So full of energy are our teenagers that they can truly change the world for the better.” 36．What is the main idea of the passage? A．Teenagers can only be thinkers, not doers. B．Teenagers today are making a positive difference through inventions and actions. C．All inventions made by teenagers are for the elderly. D．It is impossible for teenagers to create useful things. 37．What did the students in India develop? A．An app to feel sounds. B．A website for lonely people. C．A low-cost water purifier.

C．Asking teenagers to finish more tests. D．Teaching teenagers to be wealthy. 39．What does the underlined word “explore” in Paragraph 2 mean? A．发明 B．探索 C．解决 D．隐藏 40．The Australian teenager’s website is to ________. A．help teenagers make money B．connect lonely elderly with young volunteers C．help people with hearing loss D．teach people how to code 【答案】36．B 37．C 38．B 39．B 40．B 【导语】本文讲述了青少年通过发明创造和实际行动积极改变世界，并列举了印度学生发明低成本净水器、英国少年开发帮助听障人士的应用程序以及澳大利亚少年创建网站连接孤独老人与年轻志愿者等事例。 【详解】36．第一段首句指出：“Teenagers are often seen as the future of a country, but they are also making a difference today.”以及第二段“Many young inventors are creating things to help their communities.”，这些内容共同说明青少年通过发明和行动产生积极影响。 37．第一段明确说明：“a group of high school students in India developed a low-cost water purifier for villages with dirty water”，说明学生发明了一种低成本的净水器。 38．第二段指出：“Many educators believe that encouraging curiosity is more important than just teaching facts.”，说明建议是鼓励学生们的好奇心。 39．第二段中“if we give teenagers the space to explore, they will surprise us with their bright ideas”中“explore”意为“探索”，与“发明”“解决”“隐藏”不符。 40．第三段说明：“a 16-year-old boy from Australia used his knowledge of coding to make a website that connects lonely elderly people with young volunteers for chats”，网站的作用是连接孤独老人和年轻志愿者。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
