Passage 25

Dear Editor,

I used to be a doctor in the children’s department of a local h 1 . Sometimes I treated children w 2 have been poisoned(中毒) by medicine for older family members. The children can easily o 3 the bottle that we now use in China. Some days ago I talked about medicine w 4 an American. He showed m 5 a plastic pill bottle that is “Childproof”(防儿童的). The design was s 6 simple that I’m sure our Chinese factories could produce these b 7 easily. The top of the bottle locks, but can be o 8

by pressing down on it while turning. This is d 9 for most young children to do, b 10 adults can open them without any difficulty.

I’m sure that the expense of making such tops would be very low. As a doctor, I’d love to see this done. And most parents would be grateful.

Passage 26

Climbing a mountain is hard work. But one step after another finally brings a person

to the t 1 . Along the way, he can stop and look a 2 . And the h 3 he climbs, the more wonderful his view(视野) is. If he keeps climbing, he will have

a new world before him. He will have a new way of t 4 everything.

Now learning a f 5 language is something like climbing a mountain. This new language can give you a new view of life. And it is more than a look at the surface(表面) of things. It can open the way into people’s minds and hearts, into a culture(文化) very d 6 from the one of your own. This will make you richer, e 7 in things that money can’t buy. E ven though you never set foot on a ship or a plane, you can be an armchair w 8 through books.

Like the mountain climber who stops now and then to l 9 at the scenery around him, everyone who is interested in reading will find p 10 in books as he fights

on to learn more and more of that new language.

Passage 27

It was getting dark. Some children and two Canadian women were still s 1 on the ice near a big hotel. They were having a good time.

t 4 and skated over to get the boy out of the water.

The ice was t 5 . The two Canadians fell into the water, too. But they tried their best to r 6 the little boy. They knew they must be q 7 . If they didn’t push him up onto the ice, he would soon die.

Many people ran over to h 8 . Some of them had ropes and poles(绳和竹竿). A young man jumped into the water to wave to the o 9 people.

The boy and the two Canadian women were out of water at last. One of the women didn’t feel well. She was sent to the h 10 at once. But she felt very happy because the boy was safe.

Passage 28

Most American families are smaller than the families in other countries. Most American families have one or two p 1 and one or two children each. Children in the US will leave their parents’ home when they grow up. They usually live f 2 from their parents because they want to find good jobs. They often write to their parents or t 3 them. And they often go to v 4 their parents

on holiday.

Parents usually l 5 their children choose their own jobs. Americans think i 6 important for young people to decide on their lives by t 7

Children are a 8 to do some work around their house. And in many families, children are p 9 for doing some housework so that they learn how to make money for their own u 10

Passage 29

Most people want to work, but it has become m 1 difficult in today's world

to find work for e 2 The economies(经济)of the world n 3 to grow

by 4% each year just to keep the old number of jobs for people. Often this is not

p 4 and so more people are w 5 work. Some people have no

jobs now because new machines can d 6 the work of many people in a shorter time. Also, machines don't ask for more money and l 7 holidays. In all of

the countries of the world machines are taking work from people, not only in factories

but also on f 8 One machine can often do the work of forty people. About 75000 people are m 9 to the cities a day to look for jobs, but o 10 70% of them can find jobs.

Passage 30

Someone says, “Time is money,” but I think time is even more i 1 than money. Why?

Because when money is s 2 we can get it b 3 However, when time is g 4 it’ll never return. That’s w 5 we mustn’t waste(浪费) time. It’s sure

that the t 6 is usually limited(有限的).Even a second is very important.

We should make full use of our time to do something u 7 But some people

don’t know the importance of time. They spend their limited time smoking, drinking

and playing. They do not know that wasting time means wasting part of their own l

8

In a word, we should save time, we sh ouldn’t l 9 today’s work for tomorrow. Remember we have no time to l 10 .

Passage31

Can animals be made to work for us? Some scientists think that one day animals may

be t 1 to do a number of simple jobs. They s 2 that in a film or on TV

we may see elephants, monkeys, dogs, bears, or other animals doing a lot of things. If you w 3 carefully, you may find that those animals are given something to eat in return for d 4 them. The scientists say that many d 5 animals may be taught to do a number of simple jobs if they will get something to

eat.

Of course, as we know, dogs can be used to guard a house, and elephants can be

used to do some heavy j 6 And we can also teach animals to work in f 7 . Apes, for example have b 8 used in America to help make cars and scientists

b 9 that these monkeys may one day get in crops and e 10 drive trains. Passage32

If you don’t use your arms or your legs for some time, they will become weak; when

you start using them again, they will gradually （逐渐地）become stronger again. Everybody knows this. Yet many people do not seem to know that it is the s 1 with memory. When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he d 2 give it enough chance to become stronger.

If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we k 3 that it is his own fault.

But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his p 4 are

to blame, and f 5 of us know that it is just his own fault.

Have you e 6 found some peopl e can’t read or write but they usually have b 7 memories? This is b 8 they cannot read or write and they h 9 to remember things; they cannot write them down in a little notebook. They must remember dates, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the whole time being exercised.

So if you want a good memory, l 10 from these people : practise remembering.

Passage33

When I was walking down the street one day, I s 1 a small bag on the ground. I picked it up and opened it to see w 2 I could find out the owner’s name. There was n 3 inside it except some dollars and a picture of a woman and a young girl about twelve years old. I put the photo back and took the bag to the police station. Before I left, the policeman wrote down my name and my a 4 . He thought the owner might want to thank me.

That evening I went to have dinner with my aunt and uncle. They had also asked a young woman to have dinner with us. Her face was familiar, but I couldn’t r 5

where I had seen her. D____6____ our talk, the young woman happened to say that she had l 7 her bag that afternoon. All at once I remembered w 8 I had seen her. She was the young girl in the photo, though she looked now much o 9 than the girl in the picture. She was very s 10 , of course, when I told her about the bag. After dinner we went to the police station and got back her bag. The policeman said to me, “It’s a wonderful thing. You found not only the bag, but also the owner of the bag. ”

Passage34

Only mother love is true love. It gives e 1 everything all his life.

When you are still a baby, mother takes good care of you as much as possible. In your waking hours she always holds you in her arms. When you are ill, she stops her work right now to look after you day and n 2 and forgets about herself. When you are growing up day by day, she feels very happy.

When you are old e 3 to go to school, mother still looks after you all the t 4 . On cold

winter days, she always tells you to p 5 on more clothes. She always stands in the wind waiting for you back from school every day. When you hurry to leave home for school with little b 6 , she always feels worried about you at home. She u 7 knows about your study and spend much money on your school things. When you do well at school, you will see the brightest s 8 on her face. Mother can do everything for you day after day.

Mother is always ready to give everything she has to her children, not to receive. What true love that is in the w 9 ! We will r 10 Mother Love for ever! Passage35

人教版初中英语阅读填词专项训练讲课教案

人教版初中英语阅读填词专项训练 解题技巧】 阅读填词又叫综合填空。考查方式是给出一段短文，在文中挖出数空，要求考生根据短文意思，在每一空缺处分别填入一个适当的单词。为降低难度，一般给出了所填单词的第一个字母。 阅读填词题是目前中考试题中综合性最强、难度最大的一种主观性题型。本文谈谈做这类题的一般方法。 首先，把握文意。阅读填词兼有阅读理解与完形填空两种题型的主要特点，类似补全对话，但又不同于以考查口语应用为主的补全对话题。做这类题，关键是阅读。文章意思清楚了，才可能根据文意进行合理的判断，从而有可能突然产生“灵感”，将断层点的意义信息比较准确地反映出来。 其次，注意精读。如果第一遍只是浏览，即使粗略把握了文章大意，对所填单词印象也会过于模糊。因为这类题没有可供选择的答案，所给文章也没有见过，粗略读过，很可能一个单词也填不出来，等于白读。如果第一遍读得细致，初步确定了部分答案，再精读第二遍、第三遍时，因对文章整体内容已有了较具体而连贯的理解，个别细节处也容易作出合理判断。 第三，反复琢磨。做这类题，即便精读一、两遍，一般情况下，总会有几空难以确定填哪个词。这时，不必再看全文了，就抓住空词句及其前后的句子反复推敲、再三琢磨就可以了。 第四，填写准确。这里的“准确”应包括：①符合要求。即所填单词必须以规定字母开头。②符合意思。既符合整篇文章基调，更符合所在句子的含义，不可出现意义断层。说东道西情况。③符合语法。意义相符了，单词选准了，还要注意所填单词是否要作词形变化：如名词是否要用复数，形容词是否要用比较级，动词是否要变时态等。 It is a Chinese traditional custom that people eat moon cakes at the time of the Mid-Autumn Festival.
