【英语】 阅读理解（人生百味）质量检测试题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
One day I got in a taxi, and we left for the airport. We were driving in the right lane（车道）when, suddenly, a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver stopped his car at once. The tire（轮胎） made a very loud noise, and at the very last moment our car stopped just one inch from the back of the other car.
I was frightened. But then I couldn't believe what happened next. The driver of the other car, the guy who almost caused a big accident, turned his head and started yelling at us. I couldn't believe it! But my taxi driver just smiled at the guy. So I asked, “Why did you just do that? This guy almost sent us to hospital.”
This is when my taxi driver taught my what I now call, “The Law of the Rubbush Truck（垃圾车法则）.” He explained that many people are like rubbish trucks. They run around full of rubbish, full of anger and full of bad feelings. As their rubbish piles up, they look for a place to throw it away and sometimes they'll throw it at you. Don't take it personally. Just smile, wish them well, and move on. Don't take their rubbish and spread it to other people at work, at home or on the streets.
Successful people never let rubbish trucks change their moods. Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets, so love those who love you and pray（祈祷）for those who don't.

A. The writer went to the airport by taxi that day. B. The taxi driver stopped his car in time.

（2）The underlined word yelling in the second paragraph means in Chinese.

A. Because he was in a bad mood. B. Because his car was full of rubbish.

A. Fight with people like rubbish trucks. B. Make friends with people like rubbish trucks. C. Have a quarrel with people like rubbish trucks. D. Don't let rubbish trucks change our moods. 【答案】 （1）C （2）C （3）A （4）B （5）D

Now some women are spending a weekend at Mother's Camp（营地）. There, husbands and children are not allowed. Why would a woman want to take a vacation without her family?Some women say they need time to be alone.
At Mother's Camp a woman has room for herself. She can sleep, read or watch TV, and no one will bother her. No children will ask, “Mom, what's for dinner?” No husband will say, “Oh, dear, I can't find any clean socks.” In fact almost 50% of women in the United States work outside the home. Many of them work full-time and then come home for a second job—taking care of their homes and families. These working women say one of their biggest problems is housework. In the United States, working wives do about 75% of the housework. Many of their husbands say they want to help. But then they burn the rice or they can't find the pans. They ask so many questions that their wives decide it is easier to do the job themselves.
Some women go to Mother's Camp just to get a break from housework. For two days they don't cook, they don't clean and they don't look after their children and husbands.

The following are some tips for becoming a successful businessman by Michael Bloomberg. They are based on his experience of building a company from the ground up, leading New York City as mayor（市长）, and so on. Take Risks
Life is too short to spend your time avoiding failure.
In 1981, at the age of 39, I lost my job. The next day I took a big risk and began my own company. In 2001, when I was debating whether to run for mayor, most people advised me not to do it. But one person said, “If you can imagine yourself giving a concession（败选）speech, then why not go for it?” That was the best advice I received, and I followed it.
In order to succeed, you must first be willing to fail— and you must have the courage to go for it anyway.
Make your own luck
Luck plays a part in success. The harder you work, the luckier you get.
Whatever you choose to do, even if it's not the job of your dreams, always work hard at it. Be the first person at work in the morning and the last to leave at night. Hard work creates chances. Never stop learning
The most powerful word in English language is “why”. There is nothing so powerful as an open, inquiring mind（探究精神）. Whatever field you choose for starting a business — be a lifelong student. Give back
You are responsible for your success and failure, but you only succeed if you share the reward with others.
My first donation was a $ 5 check to my alma mater （母校） . And while the checks（支票）may be bigger today, they come with the same spirit.
You don't have to be wealthy to give back. You can give back by giving your time and talents. （1）In this passage, Michael Bloomberg is the name of a .
A. newspaper B. place C. company D. person （2）What did the writer do at the age of 59?
A. Lost his job. B. Ran for mayor. C. Built a company. D. Became a teacher. （3）From the passage, we can infer that the writer . A. is a young mayor B. seldom cares about others C. is lucky all the time D. is a hard-working man （4）Which of the following isn't mentioned in the tips?
A. Failure is the mother of success. B. It's never too old to learn. C. Money is everything. D. Luck comes from hard work. （5）In which of the following columns（栏目）can you find the article? A. Family Life B. Interesting Stories C. Experience Sharing D. Adventures 【答案】（1）D （2）B （3）D （4）C （5）C
【解析】【分析】文章大意：短文介绍了成功的商人迈克尔·布隆伯格获取成功的一些秘诀。包括勇于承担风险；创造出自己的运气；学习永不放弃；要回报社会等等。 （1）细节推断题，根据短文的第一段中出现的句子“They are based on his experience”可知，这里的his指的是Michael Bloomberg这个人。故选D。
