2016中考英语阅读理解分类练习：健康保健类
Have you heard of ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) “Kong Nao” A new word appears on the Internet recently. In fact, it refers to some passengers who behave badly by plane and could endanger flight safety. On December 11, on the airline flight from Bangkok Thailand to Nanjing, two tourists conflicted with an air attendant. The male tourist poured garbage in the aisle(过道) and said something bad to the flight attendant. The female tourist threw a whole cup of hot water over the flight attendant. At last the plane was forced to turn back. On January 10, 2015, a passenger on Flight MU2036 opened an emergency exit without permission because of dissatisfaction with the flight delay. At last the plane was forced to turn back.
These things not only affect the normal order of flight but also have a bad international influence.
The improvement of living standards means more Chinese can take a plane. But many of them don’t behave well in public. A report by Living Social website in March 2012 even listed Chinese as the world’s second worst tourists after Americans.
If you want to change those bad behaviors and become a civilized passenger, remember to avoid the followings：
●Don’t spit in public or throw away trashes here and there.
●Never cut in line or snatch bus seats.
●Don’t laugh or speak loudly.
●Don’t take off shoes or smoke in public.
●Say something polite and do something civilized.
Whenever and wherever you are, you need to respect others. In this way, you'll win compliments（称赞） for yourself.
【小题1】Why do more and more Chinese people take the plane
A．Because Chinese people want to see more of the world.
B．Because taking the plane is more and more popular around the world.
C．Because of t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he growth in the industry and the improvement of living standards.
D．Because Chinese people do better and better in public manners.
【小题2】________ were ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )reported the worst by Living Social website in March 2012.
A．Chinese B．Thais C．Phuketers D．Americans
【小题3】What does the underlined phrases “air attendant” mean
A．空姐 B．护士 C．船长 D．经理
【小题4】According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE
A．“Kong Nao” refers to some passengers with good behaviors.
B．Chinese travelers should stop such bad manners as speaking loudly.
C．Four pieces of advice are mentioned to become a civilized visitor.
D．On December 11, 201 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )4, the airline flight had to return because of weather.

阅读下列短文，从每题所给出的四个选项 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。When I was a kid in Minnesota, watermelon was expensive. One of my father’s friends, Bernie, was a rich businessman, who owned a large store in St. Paul.
Every summer, whe ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n the first watermelons arrived, Bernie would call. Dad and I would go to Bernie’s place. We’d sit on the edge of the dock(码头), feet dangling（摇晃）, and got ready for a big meal.
Bernie would take his ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) knife, cut our first watermelon, hand us both a big piece and sit down next to us. Then we’d bury(埋) our faces in watermelon, eating only the heart—the reddest, juiciest, firmest, sweetest, most seed-free part—and throw away the rest.
Bernie was my fat ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )her’s idea of a rich man. I always thought it was because he was such a successful businessman. Years later, I realized that it was not Bernie’s wealth itself but his way of dealing with it that my father liked. Bernie knew how to stop working, get together with friends and eat only the heart of the watermelon.
What I learned from ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) Bernie is that being rich is a state of mind. Some of us, no matter how much money we have, will never be free enough to eat only the heart of the watermelon. If you don’t take the time to dangle your feet over the dock and enjoy life’s small pleasure, your work is probably hurting your life.
For many years, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )I forgot that lesson I’d learned as a kid on the loading dock. I was too busy making all the money I could.
Well, I’ve relearn ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ed it. I hope I have time left to enjoy the success of others and to take pleasure in the day. That’s the heart of the watermelon. I have learned again to throw the rest away.
1. How did the writer and his father eat the watermelon
A. They ate it in a polite way. B. They only ate its best part.
C. They ate every part of it. D. They shared only one piece.
2. In the eyes of the writer’s father, Bernie ______.
A. was just a rich businessman B. worked hard all the time
C. lived a rich but healthy life D. knew how to make money
3. The underl ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ined part “the heart of the watermelon” in the last paragraph refers to(指代) ______.
A. the best part of the watermelon B. the writer’s busy life
C. the writer’s deci ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )sion of making money D. the writer’s hope of enjoying life
4. It can be learned from the passage that ______.
A. one has to wor ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )k hard to reach his goal B. a friend in need is a friend in deed
C. watermelon is th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e healthiest fruit D. one should keep work-life balance

The time has ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) come for me, however, to make a change. Recent health problems have made it difficult for me to continue coaching.
I must say, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )I'm looking forward to my retirement (退休) with mixed feelings. I'm certainly ready for a long rest, but I'm a bit worried about what I'll do with all my spare time. You might find me coming down to watch the games from time to time. If you can still remember me, you might say hello.
Thank you everyone. I'll miss you all.

The best way of ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) learning a language is by using it. The best way of learning English is using English as much as possible. Sometimes you will get your words mixed up(迷惑的)and people won't understand. Sometimes people will say things too quickly and you can't understand them.
But if you keep your sense of humor( 幽默感),you can always have a good laugh at the mistakes you make.
Don't be unhappy if the people seem to(好象) laugh at your mistakes. It’s much better for people to laugh at your mistake than to be angry because they don't know what you are saying. The most important rule for learning English is "Don't be afraid of making mistakes. Everyone makes mistakes."

To master a langua ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ge one must be able to speak and understand the spoken language as well as to read and write. Lenin and his wife Krupskaya translated a long English book into Russian. But when they went to England in 1902, English people couldn’t understand a word they said and they couldn’t understand what was said to them. These days more and more foreigners are coming to China and more Chinese are going out to foreign countries to work or study. So the spoken language is becoming more and more important.
Speaking, of course, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) can’t go without listening. If you want to pronounce a word correctly, first you must hear it correctly. Thy sounds of the Chinese and English languages are not exactly the same. If you don’t listen carefully, you’ll find it difficult or even impossible to understand the native speakers.
Well, what ab ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )out writing Like speaking, it’s to exchange ideas. People generally use shorter words and shorter sentences in their writing. The important thing is to make your idea clear in your head and then to write it in clear lively language.
Chinese students re ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ad far too slowly. If you read fast, you understand better. If you read too slowly, by the time you have reached the end of a page you have forgotten what the beginning is about. When you meet with new words, don’t look them up in the dictionary. Guess the meaning from the context. You may not guess quite correctly the first time, but as new words come up again and again in different contexts, their meaning will become clearer and clearer. If you look up every word, you’ll never finish a book.
Students of a fore ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ign language need a particular knowledge, the knowledge of the life, history and geography of the people whose language they are studying. They should study these subjects in the foreign language, not only in translation. In this way one can kill two birds with one stone: learn a foreign language and get some knowledge of the foreign country at the same time.
1. How many points are there in the passage
A. Two B. Three C. Four D. Five
2. In his first point the writer told us ____________.
A. how to speak English
B. how to read and write
C. why spoken English is important
D. why English people couldn’t understand Lenin
3. In his last point the writer advised us ____________.
A. to kill two birds with one stone
B. to learn two languages at a time
C. to study all the subjects in a foreign language
D. to get some knowl ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )edge of the foreign country whose language you are studying

A. how to read faster

C. how to look up new words in the dictionary
D. how to grasp the general meaning of a passage

A 12-man Chinese ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )team landed on the Antarctic icecap(南极冰盖最高点) peak on January 18. They are the first people to reach the peak of Dome A (海穹A). It is 4,039 meters above sea level (海拔).
The team built a station there to study the changes of the weather, get ice samples (标本) from 150 meters to 200 meters below, and do other studies. So far, the team has got nearly 100-meter long ice samples from a place about 300 meters under the icecap peak.
It is the first time that people have been able to get samples from the icecap peak in Antarctica and it is very important for people to study the weather changes and environmental changes in this area(地区).
The Chinese scientists have also built a weather study system (系统) at the peak. The system can send out information about temperature, how strong the wind is, and many other things about the weather.
The Antarctic icecap makes up 70% of the earth's freshwater (淡水). By studying Dome A, scientists can get the lowest temperature of the earth and other information about the world's weather changes. We can't get this information from other places on the earth because Dome A is the best place for this kind of studies. So it is very important to land on the peak of Dome A.
