2019中考（人新）英语八下U9阅读练习及答案

一、阅读理解。

A

It was another day to jump rope in gym class. Lynn and Mike turned the long rope in big, slow circles. The whole class hurried to get in line to wait for their turn to jump. Millie stood at the back of the line and frowned.

Nick went first. He watched the rope and ran in at just the right time. Everyone counted. He made it all the way to 30 jumps. One after another, the kids watched the rope, ran in, and jumped. Then it was Millie’s turn. She watched the rope go around and around, but she didn’t move. She felt like everyone was looking at her.

Millie’s friends cheered. “Go, Millie, go!”

Millie’s face turned red. At last, she gave it a try, but she failed.

The truth was that Millie had been jumping rope at home every day. With a short rope, she could jump 100 times without missing. She just didn’t know how to run in and start jumping with a long rope. Since she was the only kid on her street, there was no one to help turn the long rope.

Just then, Ms Miles, the gym teacher, brought out a bunch of short jump ropes.

"Let's see how long each one of you can jump without missing," she said as she gave each student a short rope, "Ready, set. Go!"

Millie smiled for the first time ever in gym class. As she jumped, she sang rhymes quietly to herself.

After a while, Millie realized that everyone was cheering, "Go, Millie, go!"

She was the only one still jumping rope! The surprise almost made her miss a step, but she kept going. When at last she was too tired to go on, she stopped. The whole class cheered. Everyone was looking at her and smiling. Millie smiled back!

【解析】

试题分析：这篇短文讲述的是Millie的一节体育课，老师让学生们跳长绳，Millie不知道怎样跳，她试了一次，但是失败了。其实Millie会跳绳，只是因为没有人给她摇绳，所以她不会跳长绳。体育老师看到了这一幕，她让学生们比赛跳短绳，Millie最后赢了，她很开心。

1．C词义猜测题。根据短文的开头Millie stood at the back of the line and frowned以及Millie’s face turned red. At last, she gave it a try, but she failed.可知，Millie不会跳长绳，所以她排在队伍的后面。再根据下文Millie smiled for the first time ever in gym class可知，Millie会跳短绳，而且跳得很好，所以她笑了。由此可知frown和smile的相反意思的词，故选C。

2．D 细节理解题。根据短文中Millie’s face turned red. At last, she gave it a try, but she failed.以及She just didn’t know how to run in and start jumping with a long rope可知，Millie不知道怎样跳进去开始跳长绳，所以她失败了。由此可知选D。

3．A 细节理解题。根据短文中Millie smiled for the first time ever in gym class. 和She was the only one still jumping rope!可知，Millie擅长跳短绳，她跳得时间最长，所以她第一次在体育课上笑了。由此可知选A。

4．B细节理解题。根据短文的最后一段的内容可知，Millie和其他同学比赛跳短绳，她跳得很好，其他同学都掉了，但是只有她还在继续跳着，故应选B。

5．A推理判断题。根据短文的最后可知，She was the only one still jumping rope…The whole class cheered，Millie和其他同学比赛跳短绳，她跳得很好，坚持到了最后。她是跳得最好的一个，全班同学都为她欢呼，因此她应该感到非常自豪，故选A。

参考答案1—5 CBCAA

D

Trinity Faith Moran, the 11-year-old fifth grader who stole the spotlight at Naeem Khan Fall 2016 Runway Show, has died.

Stylish Mary Alice Stephenson, who worked with Khan to dress Trinity for the catwalk, announced the sad news on Instagram.

“My heart is broken. It is with great sorrow that I share this news with you today. My beautiful, inspiring friend and shining light Trinity passed away,” read Stephenson's caption. “She went to heaven two weeks ago after a very brave battle.”

In 2016, among all the models wearing super-sparkly dresses in Naeem Khan Fall 2016 fashion show, one new face stood out:Trinity Faith Moran. That's because at the age of 11, Trinity was much younger than the standard runway model. She was also not a professional!

Trinity suffered from a kind of life-threatening cancer, but she wasn't letting that hold her back from pursuing a career in fashion.

“A lot of people told me that I'm really pretty and that I should be a model sometime, so I decide to make it my wish,” Trinity said.

“She loves fashion very much, and the designer got down on the floor with her, listened to her and started sketching ideas,” Kimberly Rasmus, Trinity's mother, said. “They drew three different designs together and talked about what would look good on her. It was beyond our wildest dreams.”

“It's very rare for a designer to say yes to actually let a girl get up and walk the runway. The designer of the show was so open-hearted. He didn't even blink(眨眼),” said Mary Alice Stephenson. “Pretty clothes come and go, but the prettiest thing is making a difference in someone's life.”

1. What did she do when Trinity Faith Moran died?

A.A designer.　 B.A student.　 C.A model.　 D.A writer.

C.The process of designing. D.The decision to be a model.

4. Which word can best describe the designer for Trinity Faith Moran?

A.Stylish. B.Wild.

C.Shining. D.Open-hearted.
