【中考真题汇编】核心考点专项训练：03阅读单选-2025年中考英语
（2024·山东济南·中考真题）In the early 1900s, Austrian scientist Karl Von Frisch discovered the “waggle dance” of honey bees. They dance to communicate where to find food showing an advanced form of communication. His discovery suggested that bees seem to “think” much like humans. Bees can count up to four and even use knowledge learned in one situation in new ones. This amazing ability they have is similar to that of a few mammals (like dolphins, rats, and some monkeys)—metacognition (元认知).
Studying bees’ brains is challenging, but scientists have found ways. One such scientist is Clint Perry from Queen Mary University of London. He designed experiments (实验) where bees chose between two spots, one above and one below a black bar. If they landed above, they got a sweet drink below a terrible one. Perry made the test easier or harder by moving the landing spots further from or closer to the black bar. Perry found that bees avoided difficult tests and tried when it was easy, suggesting they can judge (判断) their chances of “passing”.
This ability to make decisions according to their chances of success before is similar to how humans choose whether to take a test. However, Perry admits we can’t be sure if bees are truly judging by their own knowledge or just avoiding an unpleasant taste.
Although there is much uncertainty, the discovery of metacognition in bees opens up new possibilities. It suggests that bees’ tiny brains may be quite capable (有能力的). It could be that skills such as simple math and navigation take far less actual brainpower than we thought. While bees aren’t as smart as mammals in memory and language, studying their brains could help us understand how our own brains process information.
We may also have to rethink how we view the rest of the insect world. There are an awful lot of small insects flying around in the garden and crawling underground. Who knows what those tiny minds might be capable of

（2024·黑龙江哈尔滨·中考真题）With the development of society, technology has greatly influenced our daily life.
If we want to have delicious food cooked in the restaurant, we can order food through mobiles. In the future, our kitchens might be even smarter. For example, our fridges will tell us to eat vegetables while they are still fresh.
Smart home technology has greatly improved our living space. A smart speaker uses AI (人工智能) technology to control lights, heat and more. What we need to do is to talk to the speaker. A smart lock allows us to open the door with our mobile phones. A smart doorbell allows us to see who is at the door on our mobile phones.
Today, a smart watch can connect to our mobile phones and do many things. It can count our steps when we go running. We can share the route with others, so they will know where we are. It also supports messaging and phone calls. Scientists have developed a smart jacket with a special sleeve (袖子). Once it is connected to our mobile phones, it can start or stop music and give directions. It can also read or send text messages and answer calls. All we need to do is to touch the sleeve.
Technology has managed to change the way we shop for clothes. Today, we can choose to buy things in a store, or shop online if we don’t want to go out. Technology allows us to see whether the clothes fit us before we buy them online. That way, we don’t need to worry about buying the wrong size online. Without doubt, the development of technology will continue to make shopping easier and more fun.

（2024·内蒙古通辽·中考真题）The scientific method is used for simple experiments (实验) that students may do in the classroom or very difficult experiments that scientists are doing throughout the world. It is a way of thinking that helps you to avoid drawing incorrect conclusions. There are usually four steps in the scientific method, including observation (观察), hypothesis (假设), experiment and conclusion.
The first step is usually observation and asking a question about your observation. For example, you had a sick stomach and ate a piece of chocolate. Two hours later, you observed that you felt better. Here you can ask a question such as “What makes a sick stomach feel better ”
The next step is to state a possible hypothesis, such as “A piece of chocolate makes a sick stomach feel better.” A good hypothesis includes three things: it can explain the observations; it can be tested and it will usually predict new conclusions.
The third step is the experiment, to test the hypothesis. An experiment is a test which will either support or challenge the hypothesis. The hypothesis will then be true or false.
The final step is to think about what happened when you tested the hypothesis and draw a conclusion. The conclusion will either clearly support the hypothesis or it will not. If the results support the hypothesis, a conclusion can be written. If they don’t support the hypothesis, you may choose to change the hypothesis or write a new one based on what was learned during the experiment.
21．The scientific method can help you ________.
A．get rid of a sick stomach B．pass a test
C．draw correct conclusions D．feel better
22．What does a good hypothesis include
①explaining the observations ②being tested
③doing experiments ④predicting new conclusions
A．①②③ B．②③④ C．①③④ D．①②④
23．What can we learn about the experiment from the passage
A．An experiment can offer you a learning method.
B．An experiment is a test to either support or challenge a hypothesis.
C．An experiment is only used when scientists are trying to prove a hypothesis.
D．An experiment does not have to be part of the scientific method.
24．What does the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refer to
A．The conclusion.B．The observation.
C．The hypothesis. D．The question.
25．Which sentence can best express the main idea of the passage
A．What makes a sick stomach feel better
B．The conclusion will sometimes clearly support the hypothesis.
C．How do the four basic steps in the scientific method work
D．Learning the scientific method may help students succeed in science.

（2024·湖北·中考真题）So far, China has successfully sent a large number of satellites (卫星) and spaceships into space. Space scientists have been greatly inspired (赋予灵感) by the old stories and ancient famous people when giving them names.
Since thousands of years ago, Chinese people have dreamed of going to the moon. Chang’e Flies to the Moon is one of the most popular stories. As you can see, China’s first man-made satellite to circle around the moon was named Chang’e I. More interestingly, the moon rover (巡视器) was named after the Jade Rabbit, who is the partner of Chang’e in the story. These old stories carry people’s best wishes and dreams. With the development of science and technology, our scientists have made them come true.
Kua Fu Runs After the Sun is another story to show how much ancient Chinese people wanted to know about the unknown world. Now, Kua Fu is going with the scientists to “visit” the sun, because we have a space project called KuaFu Mission.
Besides the ancient stories, space scientists also get ideas from ancient famous people. For example, Mozi, an ancient scientist, discovered that light travels in a straight line over 2, 000 years ago. His discovery made space study take a big step at that time. So, China’s first quantum (量子) science satellite was named Mozi, making China the first country in the world to achieve quantum communication between satellites and the ground.
From such simple things as giving names to the satellites, we can see how great our traditional culture is and what influence it has on our modern science and technology.
46．In China, space scientists get ideas from ________ when naming satellites.
①old stories ②traditional projects
③ancient famous people ④ popular inventions
A．①② B．①③ C．②④ D．③④
47．What do we know about Chang’e I according to the passage
A．It moves around the moon. B．It protects the Jade Rabbit.
C．It “visits” the sun with the scientists. D．It is the world’s first man-made satellite.

(①=Paragraph 1 ②=Paragraph 2,…)
A． B．
C． D．
50．What’s the writer’s main purpose of writing the passage
A．To spread the traditional Chinese culture.
B．To explain how our scientists develop the space industry.
C．To introduce the achievements in our science and technology.

【中考真题汇编】核心考点专项训练：03阅读单选-2025年中考英语
（2024·山东济南·中考真题）In the early 1900s, Austrian scientist Karl Von Frisch discovered the “waggle dance” of honey bees. They dance to communicate where to find food showing an advanced form of communication. His discovery suggested that bees seem to “think” much like humans. Bees can count up to four and even use knowledge learned in one situation in new ones. This amazing ability they have is similar to that of a few mammals (like dolphins, rats, and some monkeys)—metacognition (元认知).
Studying bees’ brains is challenging, but scientists have found ways. One such scientist is Clint Perry from Queen Mary University of London. He designed experiments (实验) where bees chose between two spots, one above and one below a black bar. If they landed above, they got a sweet drink below a terrible one. Perry made the test easier or harder by moving the landing spots further from or closer to the black bar. Perry found that bees avoided difficult tests and tried when it was easy, suggesting they can judge (判断) their chances of “passing”.
This ability to make decisions according to their chances of success before is similar to how humans choose whether to take a test. However, Perry admits we can’t be sure if bees are truly judging by their own knowledge or just avoiding an unpleasant taste.
Although there is much uncertainty, the discovery of metacognition in bees opens up new possibilities. It suggests that bees’ tiny brains may be quite capable (有能力的). It could be that skills such as simple math and navigation take far less actual brainpower than we thought. While bees aren’t as smart as mammals in memory and language, studying their brains could help us understand how our own brains process information.
We may also have to rethink how we view the rest of the insect world. There are an awful lot of small insects flying around in the garden and crawling underground. Who knows what those tiny minds might be capable of
1．Why do bees do the “waggle dance”
A．To count numbers. B．To show their amazing dancing skill.

3．What is the value of studying bees’ brains
A．It helps us study human brains. B．It reminds us to protect animals.

4．Why does the writer end the text with a question
A．To add information about bees. B．To get readers interested in insects.
C．To show doubts about the research. D．To express opinions about animal testing.
5．What is the text mainly about
A．Bees’ special communication skills. B．How bees process important information.

（2024·黑龙江哈尔滨·中考真题）With the development of society, technology has greatly influenced our daily life.
If we want to have delicious food cooked in the restaurant, we can order food through mobiles. In the future, our kitchens might be even smarter. For example, our fridges will tell us to eat vegetables while they are still fresh.
Smart home technology has greatly improved our living space. A smart speaker uses AI (人工智能) technology to control lights, heat and more. What we need to do is to talk to the speaker. A smart lock allows us to open the door with our mobile phones. A smart doorbell allows us to see who is at the door on our mobile phones.
Today, a smart watch can connect to our mobile phones and do many things. It can count our steps when we go running. We can share the route with others, so they will know where we are. It also supports messaging and phone calls. Scientists have developed a smart jacket with a special sleeve (袖子). Once it is connected to our mobile phones, it can start or stop music and give directions. It can also read or send text messages and answer calls. All we need to do is to touch the sleeve.
Technology has managed to change the way we shop for clothes. Today, we can choose to buy things in a store, or shop online if we don’t want to go out. Technology allows us to see whether the clothes fit us before we buy them online. That way, we don’t need to worry about buying the wrong size online. Without doubt, the development of technology will continue to make shopping easier and more fun.

（2024·内蒙古通辽·中考真题）The scientific method is used for simple experiments (实验) that students may do in the classroom or very difficult experiments that scientists are doing throughout the world. It is a way of thinking that helps you to avoid drawing incorrect conclusions. There are usually four steps in the scientific method, including observation (观察), hypothesis (假设), experiment and conclusion.
The first step is usually observation and asking a question about your observation. For example, you had a sick stomach and ate a piece of chocolate. Two hours later, you observed that you felt better. Here you can ask a question such as “What makes a sick stomach feel better ”
The next step is to state a possible hypothesis, such as “A piece of chocolate makes a sick stomach feel better.” A good hypothesis includes three things: it can explain the observations; it can be tested and it will usually predict new conclusions.
The third step is the experiment, to test the hypothesis. An experiment is a test which will either support or challenge the hypothesis. The hypothesis will then be true or false.
The final step is to think about what happened when you tested the hypothesis and draw a conclusion. The conclusion will either clearly support the hypothesis or it will not. If the results support the hypothesis, a conclusion can be written. If they don’t support the hypothesis, you may choose to change the hypothesis or write a new one based on what was learned during the experiment.
21．The scientific method can help you ________.
A．get rid of a sick stomach B．pass a test
C．draw correct conclusions D．feel better
22．What does a good hypothesis include
①explaining the observations ②being tested
③doing experiments ④predicting new conclusions
A．①②③ B．②③④ C．①③④ D．①②④
23．What can we learn about the experiment from the passage
A．An experiment can offer you a learning method.
B．An experiment is a test to either support or challenge a hypothesis.
C．An experiment is only used when scientists are trying to prove a hypothesis.
D．An experiment does not have to be part of the scientific method.
24．What does the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refer to
A．The conclusion.B．The observation.
C．The hypothesis. D．The question.
25．Which sentence can best express the main idea of the passage
A．What makes a sick stomach feel better
B．The conclusion will sometimes clearly support the hypothesis.
C．How do the four basic steps in the scientific method work
D．Learning the scientific method may help students succeed in science.

（2024·湖北·中考真题）So far, China has successfully sent a large number of satellites (卫星) and spaceships into space. Space scientists have been greatly inspired (赋予灵感) by the old stories and ancient famous people when giving them names.
Since thousands of years ago, Chinese people have dreamed of going to the moon. Chang’e Flies to the Moon is one of the most popular stories. As you can see, China’s first man-made satellite to circle around the moon was named Chang’e I. More interestingly, the moon rover (巡视器) was named after the Jade Rabbit, who is the partner of Chang’e in the story. These old stories carry people’s best wishes and dreams. With the development of science and technology, our scientists have made them come true.
Kua Fu Runs After the Sun is another story to show how much ancient Chinese people wanted to know about the unknown world. Now, Kua Fu is going with the scientists to “visit” the sun, because we have a space project called KuaFu Mission.
