【英语】阅读理解（人生百味）易错题集锦-名师教育经典1
一、九年级中考英语阅读理解（人生百味）（含答案详细解析） 1．阅读理解。
Have you ever been sad because you failed in something? If so, please remember, for often, achieving what you expect is not the most important thing. Here is a story to tell you why. One day a little boy decided to dig a hole behind his house after watching a science program. As he was working, a couple of boys stopped by to watch. “What are you doing?” asked one of the visitors. “I want to dig a deep hole all the way through the earth!” the boy answered excitedly. The older boys began to laugh, telling him that it was impossible to do it. Then they left. The little boy kept on digging and digging. Suddenly, a few small colorful stones caught his eyes. He collected them and put them into a glass jar （罐） patiently. Humming （哼唱） a song, he went on digging. The jar was full soon. Then he talked to himself calmly and proudly, “Maybe I can't finish digging all the way through the earth, but look at what I have found in the process （过程） of digging!”
The boy's goal （目标） was too difficult, but it did cause him to go on, in other words, to cause us to keep working!
Not every goal will be achieved. Not every job will end up with a success. Not every dream will come true. But when you can't achieve your goal, maybe you can say, “Yes, but look what I've found along the way! There are so many wonderful things that have come into my life because I tried to do something!” It is in the digging that life is lived. It is the unexpected joy on the journey that really has a meaning.
（1）What did the boy do after watching a program?
A. He bought a glass jar. B. He played with some visitors. C. He started to dig a hole. D. He went on watching the program. （2）What did the older boys think of the little boy?

A. Life is to make a big success. B. Life is difficult but colorful. C. Life is to find the colorful stones. D. Life is on the way to achieve the goal. 【答案】（1）B （2）A （3）D
【解析】【分析】这篇短文主要描述了一个想挖穿地球的小男孩，最终没有挖穿地球。却在挖掘的过程中，挖掘到了多彩的宝石。从而告诉我们虽然努力不一定就能实现目标，但是我们也许会在过程中有很大的收获，我们要珍惜努力的过程。

2．阅读理解
This afternoon, when I was looking for a self-improvement（自我修养） book, I found an aged folder（文件夹）.In this folder, there were some of the examination papers I'd taken during my pre-university days. They were on economics（经济学）, a subject that I didn't really like much then.
I laughed at the silly mistakes I made as I looked through the papers. And memories of the past came to my mind. I saw myself sitting at one of the study tables, working hard for some of my life goals. Back then, it was popular for most students to set life goals, because they thought it was most important.
It was during those times that I first started to set goals for myself. I didn't know much about goal setting then. I didn't use any goal tracking（跟踪） tools, either. All I knew was that I had to go to university. There was no other way that I could give myself. To go through my lecture（演讲） notes, I didn't take breaks. For more revision with my classmates, I stayed back late. One time, I missed the school lock-out hours and I had to climb school gates in order to leave. It was perhaps this attitude（态度） that ignited my decision to go through what I had to do to get this far.
Yes, it may have been hard. But the sweet taste of victory experienced at the point of receiving my final results was so wonderful that I would never forget it for the rest of my life.
I closed the folder and dropped it into the dustbin（垃圾箱） in the room. It's time to get kicking with my next goal. And by writing this, I know I'm getting closer.
（1）When the author（作者）looked through the papers in the folder, he . A. looked for a self-improvement book B. laughed at the silly mistakes he made C. dropped it into the dustbin right away D. sat at the table and set life goals again （2）When the author first started to get goals for himself, he . A. didn't need to enter university B. didn't use any goal tracking tools
C. was sure that he would win the victory D. learned a lot from a self-improvement book （3）Why did the author stay back late after school?
A. To be prepared to enter university. B. To learn more about goal setting.
C. To make his teacher pay attention to him. D. To get the chance of climbing school gates. （4）The underlined word “ignited” means in the passage. A. reduced
（
减
少
）
B. balanced
（
平
衡） C. questioned D. raised
（5）What can we learn about the author from the last paragraph?
A. He regularly（规律地） tidies his room. B. He's not quite good at goal setting C. He is ready for the next goal. D. He hated those papers in the folder. 【答案】（1）B （2）B （3）A
（4）D （5）C
