2009 年中考英语阅读理解试题汇编 1 含答案A 阅读下面短文, 根据短文的内容判断句子的正误.正确的涂 “A”, 错误的涂 “B”. I have never taken cooking classes. I learned cooking from my mother because she was really interested in teaching me how to cook. The main reason for this was because when my mother got married, she didn't know how to cook anything, not even an egg. My grandmother never allowed her to stay in the kitchen when she was cooking. My mother did not start to cook until she was twenty-five years old. In the beginning, it was very hard for her. Therefore, she had to take cooking classes to prepare(准备)our meals. After having that experience, she decided to teach me how to cook because she didn't want me to have the same experience. I remember when I was seven years old, I started to learn cooking from my mother. Sometimes we prepared the meals that my mother already knew how make, and sometimes we prepared meals from recipes. Thanks to that experience, now I don't need any help to cook a meal. I can cook for myself or f it doesn't matter. I will do the same with my children because I don't want them to have the same experience as my mother. If one day I am not with them, I want to be sure that they can continue their life without me. 61.The author learned cooking from her mother because they all liked cooking. 62.The author?s mother learned cooking by taking cooking classes. 63.The author began to learn to cook when she was seven years old. 64.The author learned cooking only by preparing the meals she knew quite well. 65.The author will do as her mother to make her children know the way of cooking.

My mom always found ways to make leftovers (剩余食 物) taste good. I went to Ilan to learn about some of their special foods. As I was there, I learned about the food and the history of the area. I learned that they don?t waste food, either, and they use leftovers! Many years ago, there was not enough food for everyone. People learned to cook and eat almost everything. They had to think of ways to make special dishes. One of these dishes is kao zha. It?s made with leftovers like meat, soup, oil and fat. That might not sound very good, but it does taste good. Today, kao zha is a special dish at big banquets (宴会). Another famous dish is called zao bing. It?s made with fruit, meat and other things. I really liked it! But I didn?t want to eat too much. It has a lot of fat in it. I smelled something burning and I saw smoke, so I found another special food of the Ilan area─duck meat. The duck meat is put in a big oven (炉子) to cook it. Smoke keeps the meat fresh. I don?t usually eat meat, but this duck meat was delicious! It tasted sweet. Ilan is a great place with delicious food. I hope I can come back again! 56.

But you get really angry every time you think of them. If you don?t let this anger go, it can turn into bitterness (痛苦). Bitterness appears when we can?t forgive (原谅) someone who has hurt us or made us angry. Someone might say or do something that hurts us. But instead of controlling the anger, we keep it deep inside. Before long, a bitter feeling begins to grow. We may think we?re hurting that person by criticizing (指责) him or her often, but we?re really only hurting ourselves. Bitterness can not only lead to serious health problems such as heart disease, but also hurt our relationships with friends and family members. No one enjoys being around an angry person for very long. If you see bitterness in your life, here are some ways to deal with it. ● Accept itInstead of trying to deny your anger, make it clear to yourself and accept it. See your anger for what it is and quickly deal with it. ● Stop making excuses for it You may feel you have a right to be angry. You may think you?re right and the other person is wrong. You may even secretly enjoy making the other person look bad. But in the end, bitterness hurts you much more than the other person. The bitterness will hold you back, and the other person will go on with his or her life. ● Forgive and forget it You probably can?t completely put the anger out of your mind. But you can decide to forgive the other person. Forget it and move on. You?ll enjoy better health and peace of mind. 66. According to the passage, we might get angry when someone __________. A. holds us back B. forgets us C. doesn?t like us D. does hurt us67. Bitterness comes from __________. A. our health problems like heart disease B. the anger that lives deep inside our mind C. the person who says something that hurts us D. our relationships with friends and family members 68.

A. make the person who hurts us look bad B. hate the person who hurts us very often C. accept that you are hurting the other person D. forgive the person who hurts us and forget it 70. What can we learn from the passage?A. We should enjoy someone who hurts us. B. We should pay more attention to our friends. C. The peace of mind is more important than the hurt itself. D. It?s better to let bitterness go along with the other person.六. 09 江西省 B Two months ago, I went to Australia for a meeting with my workmate, Chris.
