2020中考英语“停课不停学”阅读理解练习（三）及答案
Passage A
（2019中考日常生活类训练）
Have you ever seen a car without a driver? It sounds crazy, but these computer-driven driverless cars will soon be filling roads near you. Companies like Google and Tesla have been designing and testing these cars, and the technology is there.
So how? The cars have sensors（感应器）all around which can find other cars and objects in the road. Road signs are read by cameras, and satellite navigation systems（卫星导航系统）are used so the car knows how to get where you want to go. All you have to do is type in the address! Finally, a central computer system takes in all the information that it receives from the sensors and cameras and works out when to speed up, stop and turn.
Sound like your idea of heaven（天堂）? Sitting back, looking out of the windows and even watching a film or reading a book while ‘driving’ would be possible with this new technology. You wouldn’t have to worry about remembering directions to where you’re going. In addition, computers would also drive more safely than people — they would obey the rules and have quicker action times when in dangerous situations.
However, there are many drawbacks of driverless cars. Computers would have difficulties making ethical（道德的）decisions: if a child ran into the road, would the computer choose to hit the child or turn suddenly and potentially kill the car’s passengers? Moreover, I personally find driving fun –I’d miss never driving a car myself. There would also be many other decisions to be made –should children, or drunk people, be allowed in a driverless car by themselves? Or would there need to be a person with a driving license in the car at all times?
I’m not certain I’d want a driverless car – but it’s only a matter of time before they’ll become more affordable and popular on our roads.
1. When using a driverless car, you need only ????.
A. read the road signs carefully????????? ? B. check the cameras
C. put the address into the computer??? D. remember the directions
2. The third paragraph mainly tells us about the ????of driverless cars.
A. instructions????????? B. standards?????????? C. advantages ???????D. tests
3. The underlined word “potentially” in Paragraph 4 means “??? “.
A. possibly????????? B. successfully???????? C. especially?????? D. naturally
4. What’s the writer’s opinion about future driverless cars?
A. They’ll cause more accidents.????????????B. They’ll be less expensive.
C. They’ll use less energy.???????????????????? D. They’ll run much faster.

Passage B
Do you like to meet new people? Do you like to talk, or are you shy? Whatever your answers are, these tips can help you.
★Have some topics ready to start a conversation.
Say something about the weather or the place where you are. Talk about the weekend that people all have something to say about.
★Make the conversation interesting.
Read the latest news. Read restaurant and movie reviews. Find out about the popular music or what's new in fashion or sports.
★Be a good listener.
Keep eye contact(眼神交流) and say，“Yes.”“Hmm，”“Uh?huh，”“Right，” and “I know.” And say, “Really? That's interesting.” It encourages people to talk.
★Don't be boring.
Don't just say, “Yes” or “No” when you answer a question. Give some interesting information, too.
★Don't talk all the time.
Ask, “How about you？” and show you are interested in the other person, too. People love to talk about themselves!
★Ask information questions.
Ask questions like “What do you do in your free time？” or “What kind of food do you like？” Use follow?up questions to keep the conversation going. But don't ask too many questions, or it will be an interrogation!
★Be positive.
Those negative comments can sound impolite. And if you don't want to answer a personal question, simply say, “Oh, I'm not sure I can answer that, ”or “I'd rather not say that.”

Passage C
（2019中考日常生活类训练）
Ted, my little brother, is in Grade One. Last Friday he came back from school with a letter. The letter was from his teacher. “I got a red flower today. Could you please sign this note?” he said to mum. The note showed that he had been talking in class.
Ted hardly gets top scores in his school work. The best he gets is “OK”, but he often gets “You can do better than this.” Mum knows what it means. She tells me “You can do better than this” means “Extremely bad” in China.
In the USA, teachers never say anything too bad about their students, even if the students are making trouble in class or not working hard enough. The worst they might say is “Please be nicer tomorrow”. Many parents are satisfied with a B-grade for each subject.
But things in Chinese schools are quite different. Parents have high expectations for their children. I sometimes felt that my second-grade cousin spend more time on homework than I did when I was 6th grade in the US! Yet his parents and teachers didn’t think he worked hard enough.
Is it too strict in China? Or is it not strict enough in the USA? Maybe both are true.
1.Why did Ted come home with a letter last Friday?
??????? A. Because the teacher wanted to visit his mother.
??????? B. Because he did something wrong.
??????? C. Because the teacher was happy with his progress.
??????? D. Because the teacher thought he was too lazy.
2.If a student in the USA gets “OK” in his schoolwork, it means ________.
??????? A. he gets top scores?????????????? B. he gets medium scores
??????? C. he gets extremely bad scores????? D. he gets the worst scores
3. American parents will be ________ when their children get a B-grade in their school.
??????? A. excited??????? B. sad????????? C. angry???????? D. happy
4. The underlined words “high expectations” in this passage means “________”.
?????? ?A. 很高的待遇??? B. 很多的自由??? C. 很高的期望??? D. 很多的关爱
5. The writer mainly wants to tell us ________.
??????? A. the differences between Chinese education and American education
??????? B. Chinese students are better than American students
??????? C. American parents are not strict enough with their children
??????? D. what’s the best way to educate child

Passage D
（2019中考教育类选练）
Last week, 169 Junior 1 students at No. 35 Middle School of Shenyang took their first no-teacher exam. After the teacher handed out the exam paper, he left the room and never came back. A student collected in the papers when the exam ended.
"That test was not only a test of knowledge, but also a test of moral (道德). We wanted to show students how important honesty (诚实) is," said the school's headmaster. The school says no cheating (作弊)happened in the test. Next year, it wants 80% of its exams to be without teachers. But students have different ideas.
"I was happy and excited during the exam because my teachers trusted (信任) me," said Lang Yudan, a 13-year-old girl in Class 11.
"Schools must trust students a lot not to use invigilators (监考人). But I think it is too early. Some students will cheat if there are no invigilators. And the students will not be able to ask for help when needed,” said Hua Sha.
"I don' t like having invigilators in exams. When they walk around the classroom, they make me nervous. I would get higher marks without them in the room because I would feel more relaxed," Liu Qingxi said.
"I think it's very important to have invigilators in exams. Many students want to check their answers with each other after they have finished papers. And they can also keep the classroom in order when something unusual happens. They may make me nervous, but I still think we need them," Shangguan Yuan said.
Not using invigilators may be a good idea. But before using it, schools must tell students the importance of honesty and try to find ways to solve something unusual in exams.
(?? ) 1. The passage mainly (主要地) talks about ______________.
A. how to pass an exam??????????? B. how to make students honest
C. whether there is cheating in exams?? D. whether invigilators are needed in exams
(? )2. No. 35 Middle School of Shenyang held a no-teacher exam to _________.
A. let the students have a good rest?? B. teach the students in a better way
C. help all the students pass the exam? D. find whether the students were honest
(?? ) 3 From what the students have said, we know _____________
A. invigilators really help them a lot??? B. all of them think it is a good idea
C. something unusual never happens in exams
D. not all of them agree with the headmaster
(?? )4. In the sentence "And they can also keep the classroom in order when something unusual happens" "they" refers to (指)_____________.
A. students??????? B. headmasters????? C. invigilators????? D. schools
(?? )5. Do? you think it’s a good idea to have no-teacher exams at your class?Why?
