一、初三英语阅读理解（含答案详细解析） 1．阅读理解
Some people think only school children do not agree with their parents, however, it is not true. Communication is a problem for parents and children of all ages. If it's hard for you to communicate with your parents, don't worry about it. Here are some advice for you to bridge the generation gap （代沟）.
Don't argue （争辩） with your parents. Don't get to your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably won't consider your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you can't express yourself well if you are angry. Go someplace to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you don't think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter.
Try to reach a compromise （和解）. Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Michael's mother didn't agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days.
Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect （尊敬） to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong.
Talk about your values. The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care about, and why. Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life.
A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person. It is worth having a try!

7．阅读理解
These days haze（雾霾） is around us here and there. In fact, everyone has the power to change their living habits to help reduce it. Many local governments call on their people to take action to make the air cleaner.
Transport is one of the biggest contributors（促成物） to haze. When, where, bow, why and what you drive all affect air quality. When one drives to work for one year, he uses as much energy as a bus rider uses in 10 years. So walk or ride your bicycle to work or school whenever possible. If it is necessary, you can use public transport instead of your car. Each person using public transport for a year instead of a car can save nearly a tonne of pollutants, including CO2, from going into the atmosphere.
Carpooling is another way to reduce carbon emissions （排放）. Carpooling is the sharing of car journeys so that more than one person travels in a car. It immediately reduces your car's emissions by half.
What you do inside your living space can have a big effect on the air quality outside it. You can do a lot of things inside and around your home that will help you pollute less and save some money.
A large amount of our energy supply comes from burning coal, another contributor to haze. By cutting down your electricity use, you are cutting down on haze. So you may try to reduce your use of electricity by turning off lights, using your air conditioner wisely during the summer months, or updating some of your electrical appliances to low-energy models. For example, you can use energy-saving lamps that require less energy and last 10 times longer than common bulbs.
（1）Which does the writer think should play an important role in reducing haze? A. City cleaners. B. Haze producers. C. Local governments. D. Common people. （2）We can infer（推断） from the passage that the writer thinks . A. cars can be used only when people have to B. cars should be given up as soon as possible C. cars must be improved to reduce air pollution D. cars may cause the most serious pollution of all
（3）We should reduce the use of electricity mainly because . A. we can save a lot of money by using less energy B. coal is now becoming rarer and rarer on our planet C. harmful things come out while electricity is produced D. electrical appliances send out something harmful to our air （4）Which can be the best title for the passage?
A. What Are Causing Haze Around Us B. What You Can Do to Reduce Haze C. How Dangerous Haze Is to Our Life D. How Important It Is to Reduce Haze 【答案】 （1）D （2）A （3）C
（4）B
【解析】【分析】文章大意：文章主要介绍了几种减少雾霾的方法，第一种为尽量使用公共交通工具外出，第二种为尽量拼车出行，第三种为减少电力的使用。
（1）细节题。结合第一段第二句 In fact, everyone has the power to change their living habits to help reduce it. 可知，每个人都有能力通过改变自己的生活习惯来减少雾霾。因此，作者认为在减少雾霾上，普通人应该发挥重要作用， 故选D。
（2）推断题。由第二段 So walk or ride your bicycle to work or school whenever possible. If it is necessary, you can use public transport instead of your car. 可知，尽可能步行或骑自行车，必要时乘坐公共交通工具也不要开车。因此作者认为仅当不得已的时候才应该才去开车，故选A。
（3）细节题。结合第五段第一句 A large amount of our energy supply comes from burning coal, another contributor to haze. 可知，发电时，我们需要烧煤等，而这会释放出有害物质，进而污染空气。C项意为“当生产电力时会释放有害物质”，符合题意，故选C。 （4）主旨题。通读全文，文章主要介绍了几种减少雾霾的方法，第一种为尽量使用公共交通工具外出，第二种为尽量拼车出行，第三种为减少电力的使用。故文章主旨在于普通人可以做些什么、采取什么措施来减少雾霾，故选B。

10．阅读理解
I opened the door. \"Where are you going, Mom?\" my elder son asked me. And his little brother asked, \"Can we come, too?\" \"I'm going for a coffee,\" I answered. \"And no, you can't come.\" Then I ran away before they could say something. But the guilt（内疚的） feelings slowly went away. Being a mom is hard work. There's always something new to do to make my kids happy. Sometimes, I need to do something just for me. It teaches my kids an important lesson: I matter, too.
I know parenting articles often tell us it's OK to take time for ourselves. But it's so much harder to walk the talk. Of course, we should put ourselves first sometimes. And not just when we are sick. I'm talking about putting ourselves first in other ways. For example, tell the baby that after thirty minutes of reading to them, you are going to read your own book or eat at your favorite restaurant. These selfish moments are good ways to teach our children that we are important too. When you ask my kids \"What does mom like?\" They can answer with some of my interests and favorite things: reading books, watching movies, taking care of animals and them. They often see me do the things I enjoy, so they understand me and would stay with Dad. This understanding is good for our children. \"She's a mom\" shouldn't be the only way your child describes you. If it is, it's time to be a little selfish, Moms.
（1）Why did the woman leave her children quickly?
A. She had little time left that day. B. She tried not to change her mind. C. She didn't want to explain herself. D. She had many things to do that day. （2）What does the underlined part in Paragraph 3 mean? A. It's easier said than done. B. It's harder to make a start. C. It's harder to keep our word. D. It's not easy to take a walk. （3）Why do the women's kids know her favorites?
A. They have the same interests. B. They often do things together. C. They often see what she's doing. D. Their dad tells them about her interests. （4）What's the purpose of the passage? To tell Moms______________. A. How to be a good mother at home. B. to enjoy staying with their kids. C. How to become a cool mom to your kids. D. to stop always putting their kids first. 【答案】 （1）B
（2）A （3）C （4）D
【解析】【分析】文章大意：本文介绍了妈妈在日常生活中，在照顾孩子的同时，应该有自己的兴趣和爱好，不应该总是把孩子放在第一位置，这样做对孩子有好处。
（1）推断题。根据 Then I ran away before they could say something. But the guilt（内疚的） feelings slowly went away.可知妈妈怕自己感到不带孩子感到内疚，会改变主意，所以很快离开，故选B。

13．阅读理解
Stonehenge means \"hanging stones\". They stood in a circle, with 30 more stones lying on top to form a ring of rocks. There was also an inner circle built with similar stones. The stones set up in a trilithon（巨石牌坊） pattern.
A trilithon is made of two stone pillars with a stab of rock laid across the top. The stones weigh up to 20 tons each. People wonder how the huge rocks were placed that way.
Historians agree that Stonehenge was built in three different stages. The first stage took place about 5, 000 years ago. At that time, a large circular earth wall was made. Historians believe the wall was dug and cut with tools made form anglers（鹿角） of red deer. The earth wall was about 98m in diameter（直径） a 5-meter-tall stone was placed near the center. Then, they had to transport the large blue stones （up to 4 tons） 384 kilometers to Stonehenge. Experts think they might be moved across ice and snow. The ground in winter in this area is usually full of ice and snow, making it easier to move the rocks. The next task was to stand the stones up. The most difficult task was putting the top stones in place. Each one of these tasks took a lot of planning and a lot of strength, but the workers of Stonehenge were excellent builders.
Why was the monument built? Some scientists think it's a burial ground. There are over 400 graves （burial sits） nearby. A man was buried with two gold earrings which are the oldest gold ever found in Britain （dated to 2470 BC）. Others think Stonehenge was built by early astronomers. Scientists believe that when a person stands in the center of the monument, the changing of seasons can be seen. Certain stones mark the location of the rising and setting moon in midwinter. Other stones mark the rising and setting sun in midsummer. The ancient people held religious ceremonies on these days. These ceremonies probably asked the gods to bring good weather for crops and to protect the people from bad weather.
Stonehenge is an engineering success. Thousands of years later, it still stands. As a calendar, Stonehenge is very accurate. It shows that early people had a deep understanding of the movements to the sun and the moon. They didn't have machines or computers, but Stonehenge shows people could do many things using only their muscles and their brains. （1）he first building stage of Stonehenge was ________. A. to dig and cut the earth wall B. to move the blue stones across the ice C. to stand the stones up D. to put the top stones in place
（2）Which evidence（证据） is given to support the idea that Stonehenge was a burial ground? A. Stonehenge was made of stones. B. It is a place for celebrating ceremonies. C. The passing of seasons can be seen there.
D. Two gold earrings were found in a grave.
（3）The underlined word \"accurate\" in the last paragraph probably means \"________\". A. correct B. strange C. huge D. heavy （4）Stonehenge was probably NOT originally built for ________.
A. tourists B. religious reasons C. a burial ground D. telling the seasons 【答案】 （1）A （2）D （3）A （4）A

Have you noticed your life becoming a little easier? Now, when you go to a certain shopping mall, you can enjoy its free Wi-Fi there. When you want to take a taxi, you can book one with your phone. In fact, all these can be seen as the basic parts of a smart city.
The idea of a smart city was brought up by US company IBM in 2010. Generally, a smart city is a city that uses digital technologies such as the Internet to improve city planning, save money and resources, and make our life convenient. How smart can a city be? Here are great examples that we can learn from.
In 2009, Dubuque became the first smart city in the US. The city used smart water meters to take the place of traditional water me tens. They can detect （探测） water waste and leakage （泄漏） and send data to let the house owner know. The same system is used for other city resources like electricity and natural gas. In this way, people know how they use their resources and are glad to help reduce waste.
Santander in Spain also gives us a look at the future. If people point a phone toward a nearby bus stop, the phone immediately shows all bus lines that serve the stop as well as their arrival times. The government organized a research team and provided an App （应用程序） that
collects data on almost everything: light, temperature, and the movements of cars and people. Opening the App near a supermarket provides immediate information on special offers. （1）The underlined word \"convenient\" is closest in meaning to \"______\". A. useful B. normal C. suitable D. easy （2）Compared with traditional water meters, smart water meters do better in ______. A. cleaning water B. supplying water C. saving water D. producing water （3）The example of Santander shows the use of smart systems in aspects （方面） EXCEPT ______.
A. business B. health care C. traffic controlling D. public transportation （4）What's the main idea of the passage? A. Digital technologies help improve city planning. B. Smart cities will make our future life better and smarter. C. Smart cities are very common in both Dubuque and Santander. D. Spain and the US take the leading position in building smart cities. 【答案】 （1）D （2）C （3）B （4）B
【解析】【分析】文章大意：文章主要对智能城市进行了基本介绍，又通过迪比克和桑坦德的例子介绍了智能城市为生活所带来的便捷。
（1）猜测词句题。由语句Generally, a small city is a city that uses digital technologies such as the Internet to improve city planning, save money and resources 可知，总的来说，小城市就是使用数码科技例如互联网去提高城市计划，节省金钱和资源。由此可推知，节省金钱、能源，可以使我们的生活更加轻松便捷。easy 意为“轻松的”，符合题意。useful 意为“有用的”，normal 意为“普通的”，suitable 意为“适合的”，均不符合题意。故正确答案为D。 （2）细节理解题。由文中语句This way, people know they use their resources and are glad to help reduce waste 可知，通过这种方式，人们就可以知道他们使用的资源并愿意减少资源的浪费。由此可知，智能水表可以在节约水资源方面做的比传统水表更好。save water 意为“节约水资源”，符合题意。故正确答案为C。
（3）细节理解题。A项，由第四段第四句 Opening the App near a supermarket provides immediate information on special offers 可知，在超市旁边打开这个应用程序，可以马上推送特价商品的信息。由此可推知，智能系统在商业（business）中有所应用。B项，health care 意为“健康管理”，文章没有提及。C项，由第四段第二句 If people point a phone toward a nearby bus stop, the phone immediately shows all bus lines that sever the stop as well as their arrival times 可知，如果人们用手机指向一个附近的公交车站，手机就会马上展示出所有的会在这站停的公交车路线。由此可推知，智能系统在交通控制（traffic controlling）方面有所应用。D项，由第四段第二句 If people point a phone toward a nearby bus stop, the phone immediately shows all bus lines that sever the stop as well as their arrival times 可知，如果人们用手机指向一个附近的公交车站，手机就会马上展示出所有的会在这站停的公交车路线。由此可推知，智能系统在公共交通（public transportation）方面有所应用。故正确答案为
B。

15．阅读理解
The other day, I got into a car accident, which was clearly not my fault. The other driver was so busy on his phone that he went right through a red light and hit my car.
A traffic policeman arrived and started taking statements. I explained that my speed was about 55 km/h. \"So you were going about 50 km/h, my lady?\" he asked. \"No, I said I was going about 55 km,/h,\" I said. \"Right, so you were driving at a speed of about 50 km/h?\" he asked again. I was a little annoyed because I felt he wasn't listening to me carefully. So I shouted, \"No! I was going about 55 km/h.\"
\"OK, if that's the way you want it,\" the officer simply replied. Because the city speed limit is 50 km/h, I only got paid from my insurance （保险） company for the damage to my car, but the other driver's insurance company couldn't pay me due to my speed. I didn't realize it at the time, but it turned out I was getting him wrong.
He didn't mention the 5 km/h, but he certainly knew something about the rules of the insurance. Suddenly, I realized that the traffic policeman had been trying to help me out. （1）The best expression to explain the main idea of the passage is. A. the more slowly, the better B. a careless woman driver
C. a traffic policeman tried to offer help D. no lies to anybody else
（2）What happened to the writer that day? A. She went right through a red light. B. A traffic policeman came near to stop her. C. She made a call while she was driving. D. Her car was hit by another car.
（3）Why couldn't the other driver's insurance company pay the writer? A. Because the traffic policeman had recorded the wrong speed B. Because she drove the car over the speed limit. C. Because the other driver didn't admit to the car accident. D. Because the accident was the writer's fault.
（4）Although it was her choice to insist on telling the truth, the writer ______. A. understood that it was impolite to be angry with others B. would not believe anybody else except herself C. remembered the exact rules of insurance for ever
D. should say \"thank you\" to the traffic policeman instead of acting rudely 【答案】 （1）C （2）D （3）B （4）D

（2）细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句 “The other driver was so busy on his phone that he went right through a red light and hit my car.”可知，作者的车被另一辆车撞了，故选D。 （3）细节理解题。根据文中语句“Because the city speed limit is 50 km/h... but the other driver's insurance company couldn’t pay me due to my speed.”以及上文“I explained that my speed was about 55 km/h.”可知，因为作者超速，另一个司机的保险公司没有赔付，故选B。
（4）推理判断题。根据文中语句“...but it turned out I was getting him wrong.”并联系上文推理可知，保险的赔付让 作者明白自己错怪了交警，应对他表示感谢，而不是之前的粗鲁行为，故选D。
