专题 08 阅读理解之议论文

（2023·四川眉山·统考中考真题）Do you like to travel alone? Or do you think it’s better to travel with

friends? If you’re still deciding, please read on. I will explain the advantages of both ways.

One of the great things about traveling alone is that you make the rules about where you go and what you eat.

You’ll be surprised at what you discover about yourself without any influence.

Traveling alone really shows you what you’re made of and helps you to discover inner strength ( 内心的力

量) you didn’t know you had. Besides, it also gives you time to think, learn and grow. When your eyes are wide

open, you’ll get a whole new outlook on the world.

It’s easy to think that traveling alone is lonely. Although that may sometimes be true, you’re hardly ever

alone. When you travel in a one-person team, this can provide a chance for you to enjoy the most interesting part

of travel—communicating with the locals and meeting travelers from all corners of the world.

In fact, traveling to know more about the world is not easy. There’s research to be done, flights to be booked

and choices to be made, not to mention that things can—and often do—go wrong. One of the main advantages of

traveling with friends is being able to share these things and support each other through the process, even if it’s

just someone who will wait with your bag when you go to the bathroom.

Just as your mother always says, it’s true that traveling with others can give you a sense of safety, especially

if you’re new to travel. You know that if you get lost or have your wallet stolen, there’s someone to hold your

hand when you try to explain your situation in a foreign police station.

There’s no right or wrong way to travel. Whether you travel alone or team up with friends, it depends on you.

1．How does the writer introduce the topic of the passage in Paragraph 1?

A．By telling a story. B．By giving examples.

C．getting support easily D．having a sense of safety

4．What’s the structure of the passage?

( =Paragraph 1 =Paragraph 2… )① ②

（2023·广东广州·统考中考真题）Computer scientist Mary has an idea for a new robot to help her work

with children. How should it look? The robot should have arms to be able to lift things. And if it is going to

communicate with people, it will also need a face. Scientists believe that giving a robot a face can make it seem

more friendly. Humans would also like to pay more attention to robots with faces. But what kind?

For Mary, she wants to make sure that her new robot doesn’t look too much like a human. She wants people

to just treat it as a machine-person. If it looks more like a human than a machine, she thinks users might find it a

bit creepy and feel afraid. Mary also believes that robot faces don’t need to look a lot like ours. Her research

shows that we can enjoy communicating with robots whether or not they look like humans, because our brains are

able to look for faces. Just put two circles on top of a robot’s body, and we will see a face.

Dave feels differently. He believes that although at first we might be afraid when seeing a robot with a

lifelike face, we may soon get used to it. If robots are going to work closely with humans, they should look as

much like us as possible. After all, faces are an important part of the way we communicate.

To make his robots look as much like real people as possible, Dave invented a special skin ( 皮肤) for their

faces. With this skin, robots can show human-like expressions and appear to be angry, sad, happy or surprised.

Dave’s robots are also programmed to copy expressions. How? Just imagine his robot is looking at you. The

cameras in its eyes send pictures of your face to its central computer!

5．Why do scientists think a robot needs a face?

A．It will become more beautiful. B．It can do better in lifting things.

C．It will pay more attention to children. D．It can better communicate with people.

6．What does the underlined word “creepy” mean in paragraph 2?

A．Uncomfortable to look at. B．Impossible to touch.

C．Boring to talk to. D．Difficult to understand.

7．Which of the following would Dave most probably agree with?

A．People should treat robots as humans.

B．Robots need to express their own feelings.

C．Robots shouldn't look too much like humans.

D．People can easily accept robots with a human face.

8．What is the purpose of the passage?

A．To explain the reasons why robots should have faces.

B．To suggest what humans can do with robots with faces.

C．To share ideas on what kind of faces robots should have.

D．To show how scientists invent robots with different faces.

（2023·湖南长沙·统考中考真题）It is commonly believed that children are too young to fully appreciate

(欣赏 ) the experience and knowledge of their elders, while many think that old people don’t understand the

young. But actually (事实上), both groups have a lot to learn from each other.

James Smith runs the Smith’s Care Home in my city. It is mainly an organization ( 机构 ) for serving the

elderly. But not all of its visitors are old people. The home also includes a childcare center for pre-school kids.

There is a playground in the care home, where the elderly can play with the kids. In this way, they can learn more

about each other, and respect (尊重) and understand one another.

I suppose this is quite an interesting idea. For one thing, we live in a world where there are more and more

old people. The world is facing this problem and its population ages. It will be important for young people to be

able to understand and care for the elderly in the coming years.

Regretfully, my own grandparents weren’t around when I was little, as they had already passed away. I never

got to learn what the world was like through their eyes, or what kinds of problems they might have faced when

they were my age. To me, their lives will always be a mystery — hard to understand or explain.

However, I think I can still learn from other people of older generations (辈). I might find some of their ideas

out of date, and they might believe that my generation’s way of thinking is strange or incorrect. But we can still

learn from each other anyway.

9．What is special about the Smith’s Care Home?

A．It is only a childcare center actually.

B．The elderly look after kids carefully there.

C．It accepts both the elderly and pre-school kids.

10．In the writer’s opinion (观点),what problem is the world facing?

A．There are more and more old people.

B．The world’s population is dropping rapidly.

C．The world is short of care homes for old people.

11．What does the underlined word “mystery” mean in Paragraph 4?

A．笑话 B．悲剧 C．谜团

12．How does the writer develop his/her idea in this text?

A．By giving examples. B．By listing numbers. C．By raising questions.

13．What is the main purpose of the text?

A．To explain why the world’s population ages.

B．To encourage different generations to learn from each other.

C．To show that older generations’ ways of thinking are incorrect.

（2023·浙江·统考中考真题） Roger Federer, a world-famous sports star, quit( 放弃) the 2020 Olympic

Games to deal with his knee problem. It was a hard decision because no one wanted to be a quitter. But finding the

courage to let go can be good for you.

Nothing is fun all the time. Sticking at something difficult teaches us important skills like perseverance( 毅

力). However, learning to let go when things aren’t right is important too. Maybe your heart isn’t in playing the

piano any more, or you only play football because your friends do and you want to try a different sport instead.

Making the decision to walk away can free up time and energy to spend on something you really enjoy. In fact,

studies show that letting go of goals you can’t reach, or don’t really want, can build up your confidence and help

you lead a happier and healthier life.

But how can you know it’s time to stop and move on? Eric Bean is an expert in sports psychology( 心理学)

who helps athletes and teams understand their feelings. He says, “Quitting is never a matter of black and white.”

He suggests thinking carefully about why you aren’t enjoying something any more. Is it because you’ve argued

with a teammate or can’t get on with a new art teacher? Talk about this with a trusted adult or friend. That can

help you decide whether you should stay and stick, or quit and move on.

Quitting doesn’t have to mean totally giving up, though. For example, playing an instrument might be more

fun if you take away the pressure of exams. If you do decide to give up an activity, Bean suggests picking up

another where you can still enjoy things like teamwork, creativity, and exercise.

14．The writer mentions “Roger Federer” in Paragraph 1 to show that ________.

A．we should never give up B．we should get away from trouble

C．it’s all right to stop and quit D．it’s difficult to win Olympic medals

15．According to Paragraph 2, learning to let go is important because we can ________.

A．learn about perseverance B．have enough money to spend

C．live a busier and fuller life D．feel more confident in ourselves

16．By saying the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3, Eric Bean means that ________.

A．it’s not good to stick at things we don’t like

B．we should think twice before quitting an activity

C．we don’t have to take exams to show our true abilities

D．it’s wiser to pick up a new hobby than to keep the old one

17．Which could be the best title for the passage?

A．Knowing When to Stop B．Working Hard to Move on
