2025年中考英语二轮复习任务型阅读创新突破练习(回答问题类)
1. In the wild,wolves with broken legs often face an unlucky fate(命运),waiting for death.Yet,in the Hoh Xil National Nature Reserve(保护区) in Qinghai,one such wolf had a different fate.It grew from a poor and thin one to a fat and happy wolf because tourists in the area often fed it.
This"act of kindness"led people to ask:Should tourists feed the wolf?Supporters argue that without feeding,the wolf would die because it couldn't get food by itself.But those who do not agree with the idea believe that humans should not mess with the natural order.Science,however,provides us with an answer.
Research published in Scientific Reports in June 2019 studied how human feeding affected(影响) the lives of bottlenose dolphins(宽吻海豚) near Bunbury,Australia.Dolphins there can sometimes get food from the Dolphin Discovery Centre.After studying ten years' data,the scientists found that dolphins looking for food from boats had a higher risk of death than those that found food themselves.This is because they may get hit by boats or caught by fishing nets(网).
Feeding wild animals may lead them to depend on humans for food,warned Dai Qiang,a scientist at the Chengdu Institute of Biology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.What's more,sick animals may bring diseases to people who feed them.
So,if we come across a wild animal that seems to need our help,what should we do?Qi Xinzhang,the deputy director of Xining Wildlife Park,said that it's best to report the animal to the authorities(相关部门) instead of just feeding it.
(1)Where is the Hoh Xil National Nature Reserve?
(2)Why do dolphins looking for food from boats have more possibilities to lose their lives?
(3)What may sick animals bring to people who feed them?
(4)In Qi Xinzhang's opinion,what should we do if we want to help a wild animal?
(5)Do you think it's a good idea for humans to feed wild animals?Why or why not?
2.The Qingming Festival is an important festival in China.It falls in early April every year.The Qingming Festival is a traditional day to visit the cemeteries(墓地),so people also call it the Tomb﹣Sweeping Day.Chinese people have it to remember their ancestors(祖先).
The Qingming Festival came from the Hanshi Festival during the Spring and Autumn Period.It was for Jie Zitui,a loyal minister of Jin.The festival later became a more general day to remember ancestors in the Tang Dynasty.It became a public holiday in 2008.People have one day off for that day.
Of course,the main activity of the Qingming Festival is tomb sweeping.Generally,people visit their family cemeteries and offer food,flowers and favorite things of the dead.Chinese people also like to fly kites during the Qingming Festival.That's because people believe that the kite can send their greetings to their ancestors and it can also bring them good luck.Nowadays,many young people do tomb sweeping online,because of their busy work and being far from their hometowns.
(1)When is the Qingming Festival every year?
(2)Why do Chinese people have it?
(3)Which festival did the Qingming Festival come from?
(4)Where do many young people do tomb sweeping now if they aren't free?
(5)What's the title of this passage?
3. As a country strong in math,China has many folk games filled with math wisdom.You may have played many of them before.Let's take a look at two of them.
Luban Lock Luban Lock was first created by Chinese carpenter Lu Ban about 2,000 years ago.It is said that Lu used six wooden pieces to make a toy that looks like a lock for his son.The lock has a lot to do with solid geometry(立体几何).It's hard to separate the six pieces.However,it is usually easier to unlock a Luban Lock than to put it back together.Now,there are Luban Locks made up of nine or more pieces.
Huarong Pass Huarong Pass is a traditional Chinese block﹣moving puzzle.Every block is named after a character in the book Romance of the Three Kingdoms,like Cao Cao,Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun.To succeed in the game,players have to move the blocks to get "Cao Cao" out.This is a test of one's math knowledge,for example,of geometric area(几何面积).According to the Chinese Puzzle website,it takes at least 81 steps to set "Cao Cao" free.

[4]Citywalk is spreading from the largest cities to smaller ones,encouraging more travelers and event organizers to join.Some places,such as Beijing and Shandong,have included Citywalk in their plans to develop cultural tourism and relaxing tours.Shanghai has set up Citywalk bus routes to help day﹣trippers reach more faraway areas first,and then continue on foot.
[5]Citywalk not only offers a way for young people to explore a city but also provides them with a new social situation,where they can share their interests and ideas and make friends easily.What's more,Citywalk provides an opportunity for tour guides and travel companies to offer a more professional service to meet the ever changing market requirements.

7. Earth Day is celebrated every year on April 22 d.It was started by Senator Nelson from Wisconsin on April 22nd,1970.On that day,over 20 million people took part in the very first Earth Day,which was a great success.It was clear that millions and millions of people believed that the Earth was worth protecting and we needed to play a part in it.We live on Earth and we only have one Earth.Today Earth Day is celebrated in at least 193 countries around the world.
Earth Day is a day when we learn about ways to protect the environment.One powerful thing we can all do is recycling.Recycling is a way to reuse certain things to make new things instead of throwing them away.It can help our planet by reducing the amount of waste.Now here's a tip when we recycle things:we need to make sure the things are clean,dry and not messy.Another amazing way to help the Earth is by saving electricity.The more electricity we use,the more resources (资源) we have to use,which is really hard on the environment.So when you save electricity,you're really helping out.And it's so easy to save electricity,like not leaving the lights on in your room,shutting them off when you leave or shutting off your devices (设备) before you go out to play.And of course we can also help our planet by planting trees.Trees are important for the environment.They take in gases and release (释放) oxygen which is needed to breathe.Trees are good for our planet and good for us.
Of course there are many other ways to protect the Earth.A few small actions can make a big difference.Take actions right now!

10. A total of 23 spotted seals (斑海豹) were put back into the waters off the coast of Dalian in Northeast China's Liaoning Province on Tuesday,Dec.12,2023 as part of China's continuous efforts to protect endangered wildlife.
The seals were hunted and sold,but have now been saved and marked for future protection.A fishery law enforcement ship arrived at the sea area near Dalian in the morning,carrying the spotted seals.The seals were let go free one by one into the sea.They swam freely in the water,returning to their natural home.
Spotted seals are nationally protected animals in China.They are the only kind of seals that can breed (繁殖) in Chinese waters.Like migratory (迁徙的) birds,they appear around October every year in Liaodong Bay,and take the long journey back to the Northwest Pacific in May after breeding.They are often considered as the"panda of the sea."
Thanks to China's top﹣class national protection in recent years,the population of spotted seals in Chinese waters has reached around 2,000,while the global population is between 400,000 and 600,000.Studies have shown that these 2,000 spotted seals are of great importance for the study and research on spotted seals.
To protect this rare animal and its ecological environment,the Liaoning Dalian Spotted Seal Wetlands were set up in 1992.In January 2002, they were included in the List of Wetlands of International Importance.Covering an area of 560,000 hectares with a coastline of about 370 kilometers,the wetlands are rich in biological resources.They have become home to nationally protected animals such as the spotted seal,finless porpoise,killer whales,false killer whales,common dolphins,bottlenose dolphins,and East Asian river dolphins.
Since 1992,researchers in Dalian have successfully saved 388 spotted seals and put 299 of them back into the wild.
(1)Where were the 23 spotted seals put back into the sea?
(2)What is the other name of the spotted seal?
(3)With China's protection,what has happened to the spotted seals in Chinese waters?

11. Nature has many ways to solve problems.We humans learn a lot from animals and plants in nature.There is a science about how we copy great ideas from animals and plants to create helpful products.It is called biomimetics(仿生学).
Some animals such as this sugar glider have wing﹣like structures(结构) to help them fly from tree to tree.When they jump,they spread out their arms and legs to help them fly down easily.Wing﹣suits,a kind of clothes,can let people experience flying.The idea of these clothes comes from the sugar glider.
Some animals have structures used for self﹣protection.An armadillo has a hard cover that can protect it from other dangerous animals.When an armadillo feels that it is in danger,it will change into a ball.Once the dangerous animal goes away,it comes out of the ball.The armadillo has taught people to create a backpack with a hard surface.The surface of the backpack protects things inside from being broken.
Plants have helped people come up with amazing inventions,too.Perhaps the best﹣known example is Velcro(尼龙搭扣).It includes two pieces of cloth.They stick to each other when they are pressed together.Velcro is used on everything from handbags to clothes.The idea of Velcro is from burrs(带芒刺的小果实) of a plant.They have special structures to allow themselves to stick to people's clothing or hair.They are taken to other places in this way.
From these examples,we can see biomimetics is widely used in our daily life.What other problems will nature help us solve in the future?Let's wait and see!

12.China has many special forms of traditional art.They are usually used to represent things that are important in life such as love,beauty and family.
It was said that sky lanterns were first used by Zhuge Liang.He sent them out to ask for help when in trouble.They are made of bamboo and covered with paper.Sky lanterns are used at festivals and other celebrations today.They are seen as bright symbols of happiness and good wishes.
Chinese paper﹣cutting has been around for more than 1,500 years.It may sound very easy but is difficult to practise.The paper,usually red,is folded (折叠) before it is cut with scissors.The most common pictures are flowers,animals and things about Chinese history.During the Spring Festival,they are put up on windows,doors and walls as symbols of wishes for good luck and a happy new year.
Chinese clay (泥塑) art is famous because the clay pieces are so small but they look very real.The pieces are carefully shaped by hand from a very special kind of clay and then allowed to air﹣dry.After drying,they are fired at a very high heat.Then they are painted after polishing (抛光).Finally,materials such as wood or paper are added as decorations (装饰).It takes several weeks to complete everything.These small pieces of clay art show the love that all Chinese people have for life and beauty.

It is healthy to live around trees.Trees work as doctors and they keep us healthy.
Many scientists have studied how trees clean the air.For people in large cities,trees can be very important for their health.These days,cities are planting trees not just in parks.They are also planting trees along streets in order to help clean the air.
Some scientists also believe trees help more than just the air.Trees keep our bodies healthy as well.People in hospitals seem to do better when they can see trees from their rooms.People with trees near their homes usually take more exercise.
Scientists have also studied the healthy effects(效果) of trees on our minds.One effect of trees seems to be that they make people feel relaxed.Scientists did some research on city people in an area with few trees.After trees were planted on the street,people walked slower when going home.They said the area was much nicer.
Of course,another good effect is that doctor trees work for free!

Habits of good English language learners
Learning English,or any language,can be challenging but rewarding(有回报的).To be a good learner,you need to put in a lot of effort,but you also need to develop the right habits.Here are four habits that may help you become a successful English learner.
(1) The biggest problem most people face in learning a new language is their own fear.They worry that they won't say things correctly,so they don't talk at all.Don't do that.The fastest way to learn something is to do it—again and again until you learn it.Don't let a little fear stop you from getting what you want.
Let English around you.Take notes in English,put English books around your room,watch English news,movies and television programs and listen to English music. (2) Then you will begin "thinking in English".
Practice as often as possible. (3) The best way to learn any language is to practice every day.By studying things like grammar and vocabulary can help you really improve your knowledge of any language.
(4) Finally,many people think that exercises and tests aren't much fun.However,by doing exercises and taking tests,you can really improve your English.If you test yourself,you will know how much you are progressing.
A.Speak without fear.
B.Practice makes perfect.
C.Do exercises and take tests.
D.Use different ways to improve your English.
E.Speak English with your friends whenever you can.
(5)How do you learn English well?(回答不少于5个单词)
19.阅读下面短文,简略回答所提出的问题。
Bao,an eight﹣minute film,is the winner of the 2019 Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film (奥斯卡最佳动画短片).
The story starts when a lovely baozi comes to life in an old Chinese woman's house.The woman is a lonely mother.Because of the lovely baozi,she gets to revisit the joy of being a parent.As the cute baozi boy grows into a teenager and finally an adult,the mother realizes that her child will not stay cute,and by her side forever.
The director of the short film is Domee Shi,a Chinese﹣Canadian woman.She got the idea for the film from her own life. "I'm an only child with Chinese parents,so I was very protected.I'd always been my mom's 'little dumpling'," Shi said. "It was a challenge to put myself in my mom's shoes and try to understand things from her point of view (视角)." Through making the film,she understood her mom better.
Many Asians were touched by the film.They are so familiar (熟悉的) with the mother's way of showing her love.
"Bao is very similar to me because I am a daughter of a Korean mom and I grew up like this," someone said online.
"I cried watching Bao.It's so beautiful," another said.
Even though something is small,it can be used to do big things.Clearly,Domee Shi knows it.She wanted to tell a great parent﹣child story with the food of baozi.She made it.
(1)How long is the film "Bao"?
(2)What makes the lonely mother revisit the joy of being a parent?
(3)What is the idea of making the film from?
(4)How did Domee Shi understand her mom better?
(5)Who is so familiar with the mother's way of showing her love?
20.Social phobia(社交恐惧症) seems to be common these days.Young people describe themselves as having "social phobia".They prefer not to go out much,and it's hard for them to make new friends or socialize.But is this a "real"disease?
In fact,this is just a reaction(反应) to certain social situations.A famous writer wrote a book that explains that some people don't "read"social situations correctly and they end up feeling uncomfortable.For example,they might be afraid of breaking some kinds of rules.As a result,they start to act embarrassingly.This might make them refuse to socialize or find it hard to do so.They gradually prefer to stay in instead of going out to meet new people.But this doesn't mean they have social phobia.
"Real"social phobia can be described as social anxiety(焦虑) and it's much more serious.People with social anxiety want to go out and communicate with people,but they're so afraid of doing it that they cannot leave their homes. Their brains simply won't allow them to communicate with others in a normal way. People with social phobia disease may experience panic attacks(惊慌失措) and other moments.
Luckily,social anxiety can be treated.Some people simply use self﹣help books to help themselves get more control over their minds.Those who have more serious cases of social anxiety can take medicines to treat their disease.
(1)Young people say they have "social phobia"and it's hard for them to
(2)Why do some people start to act embarrassingly according to the famous writer?
(3)What is the "real"social phobia?

This"act of kindness"led people to ask:Should tourists feed the wolf?Supporters argue that without feeding,the wolf would die because it couldn't get food by itself.But those who do not agree with the idea believe that humans should not mess with the natural order.Science,however,provides us with an answer.
Research published in Scientific Reports in June 2019 studied how human feeding affected(影响) the lives of bottlenose dolphins(宽吻海豚) near Bunbury,Australia.Dolphins there can sometimes get food from the Dolphin Discovery Centre.After studying ten years' data,the scientists found that dolphins looking for food from boats had a higher risk of death than those that found food themselves.This is because they may get hit by boats or caught by fishing nets(网).
Feeding wild animals may lead them to depend on humans for food,warned Dai Qiang,a scientist at the Chengdu Institute of Biology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.What's more,sick animals may bring diseases to people who feed them.
So,if we come across a wild animal that seems to need our help,what should we do?Qi Xinzhang,the deputy director of Xining Wildlife Park,said that it's best to report the animal to the authorities(相关部门) instead of just feeding it.
(1)Where is the Hoh Xil National Nature Reserve?
In Qinghai.
(2)Why do dolphins looking for food from boats have more possibilities to lose their lives?
Because they may get hit by boats or caught by fishing nets.
(3)What may sick animals bring to people who feed them?
Diseases.
(4)In Qi Xinzhang's opinion,what should we do if we want to help a wild animal?
We should report the animal to the authorities instead of just feeding it.
(5)Do you think it's a good idea for humans to feed wild animals?Why or why not?
Yes.Because without feeding,some wild animals would die of hunger./No.Because it may mess with the natural order./Because feeding wild animals may lead them to depend on humans for food.
【考点】议论文;科普知识.
【答案】(1)In Qinghai.
(2)Because they may get hit by boats or caught by fishing nets.
