2011年中考英语阅读理解（还原短文）

【2011北京】七、阅读短文，根据短文内容，从文后的五个选项中选出能填入空白处的最

佳选项，选项中有一项为多余选项。（共8分，每小题2分）

Kenny and Bobbi McCaughey live in Iowa. They have a big family. Mikayla is the

oldest child in the family. She is six years old. The other children are Brandon,

Joel, Kelsey, Kenny. Natalie, Alexis and Nathan. They are all five years old. Why

are they all the same age? __6l_They are septuplets!

It is hard work to look after seven babies at the same

time, 62_. In the beginning, many people helped them.

They helped to feed, clean, and dress the babies. Every week,

the septuplets used about 170 diapers (尿布) ! _63 .

Now the children are older. The septuplets started

school this year. But they go to school at home, like their

big sister, Mikayla. When Mikayla was ready for school,

Kenny and Bobbi decided to teach her at home. 64 . Now

Bobbi is the teacher for all eight of her children.

A. They drank a lot of milk, too

B. Because they were born together

C. Last year, Bobbi was Mikayla's teacher

D. Kenny and Bobbi are interested in cooking

E. But Kenny and Bobbi didn't look after them alone

61. 正确答案B. 我们发现有关键词"Born"与age、five years old相呼应。再看空格的前

两句内容提到They are all five years old. Why are they all the same age? 结合常

理我们能够得到他们应该是同时出生的。分析五个选项，排除不符合前后文意思内容的选项。

再通过后文说They are septuplets!(七胞胎)第二个选项明显符合先后文的因果关系，故

选B。

62. 正确答案E.先看单词，look after复现。看空的前后，前文说同时照顾七个宝宝是个

艰辛的工作，后文说起初有很多人帮助他们。前后逻辑是相反的，所以中间应该有转折。再

看选项，把各个选项实在带入只有E符合前后行文顺序其它的内容均与该空无关，故选E。

63. 正确答案A. 首先注意关键词they 的指代，前文说到他们每天需要大量的尿布，而把

所有选项带入后发现只有A选项与原文空格位置逻辑顺序相符。故选A。其他选项与前文所

描述内容不能有效联系，所以不选。

64. 正确答案C.关键词复现：Bobbi和关键词替换原文中的teach与选项中的teacher,从

逻辑看，带入C，去年Bobbi 是 Mikayla的老师，与下文现在她是所有孩子的老师成顺承

关系。同时注意空格后一句的内容。把选项C带入前后文所描述的内容一致。故选C。其它

选项与本题前后内容描述不一致逻辑不一致，故不选。

（2011桂林）C

A hobby can be almost anything that a person likes to do in his spare time.

Hobbyists raise pets, watch birds, paint pictures, play the piano and grow flowers.

66 They collect everything from books to butterflies and from boxes to stamps.

People take up hobbies because these activities offer enjoyment, friendship and

relaxation. Hobbies help people relax after a long time of hard work, and provide

a balance (平衡) between work and play. Hobbies offer interesting activities for

the old. Some hobbies can make a child grow as a person, develop his interest and

help him learn new skills. 67 Doctors have found that hobbies are useful in

helping patients (病人) recover (恢复) from illness. Hobbies give patients who

can’t move around something to do, and provide interests that keep them from

thinking about themselves. Many hospitals treat (治疗) patients by having them take

up interesting hobbies. 68

In early times, most people were too busy making a living to have many hobbies.

But some persons who had spare time did enjoy hobbies. 69 People today have more

time than ever before for hobbies. Machines have now reduced much time that people

must spend on their jobs.

70 Those who have developed hobbies never need to worry about what to do with

their newly-found free time hours.

Sir William Osler, a famous Canadian doctor expressed the value (价值) of hobbies

by saying, “No man is really happy or safe without a hobby.”

请根据以上内容，从下列五个选项中选择适当的句子还原到短文中，使短文完整与正确。

将其标号在答题卡上涂黑。（每小题2分，共10分）

A. More people retire at an earlier age than before.

B. Hobbies can also help a patient to keep healthy.

C. The ancient Egyptians played games with balls made of wood.

D. They also go to concerts, climb mountains, go fishing, skate and swim.

E. Anyone, old or young, sick or well, rich or poor, can follow a good hobby,

in spite of his age, health or money.

【主旨大意】本文介绍了爱好。人们能有各种各样的活动作为自己的爱好，爱好能帮助人

们放松，帮助病人保持健康。在以前人们忙于工作而没有时间拥有爱好，现在人们有更多的

时间去拥有更多的爱好。没有人没有爱好是幸福和安全的。

【2011•河南省】D

You know you have to read "between the lines" to get the most out of anything.

I want to tell you something important during your reading.

You shouldn't mark a book which isn't yours. 61 If you think it useful to mark

books, you will have to buy them.

There are two ways in which one can own a book. The first is to get the right

by paying for it, just as you pay for clothes and furniture. But full ownership comes

only when you have made it a part of yourself. 62

There are three kinds of book owners. The first has all the best sellers — unread

and untouched. The second has a great many books. 63 The third has a few dog-eared

(翻折的) books, which are marked from front to back.

Why is marking a book necessary? First, it keeps you awake. In the second place,

reading is thinking. 64 The marked book is usually the thought-through book. Finally,

writing helps you remember the thoughts you had, or the thoughts the writer

expressed.
