㈠ 中学生英语阅读竞赛是比什么的
我初二高二大二都参加过呵呵题型都差不多
先是听力,有选单词,回选答案,选图片,段对答话,长对话和短文,大部分都是只只读一遍,个人觉得挺快的。然后是单选大概是15个左右吧,再后来是阅读,有和一般的阅读理解差不多的,也有选词填空,或者是选句子补充文章的,再后面是完型,我记得是有两个,一个就是我们平常做的选ABCD,另外一个就是选词填空,好像是15选10,再后面我记得是有翻译,5个句子,还有5个脑筋急转弯,用英语作答,最后是作文,有两个。总的来说难度还可以,就是题量有点大,建议你在阅读撒谎那个多下点功夫。祝你好运加油++
㈡ 九年级英语阅读复习研讨竞赛活动有什么毛病吗
这句话出现“句式杂糅”的毛病。建议改为:九年级英语阅读竞赛活动。
这样简洁一些。

Hayao Miyazaki was born in Tokyo on January 5, 1941. As a boy, he liked to read and draw cartoons. After graating from university in 1963, Miyazaki joined the Toei Animation (动画片制作) Company. At Toei, he worked on many animated movies, like the famous Puss in Boots. In 1984, he made Nausicaa of the Valley of Wind, which was based on a comic book he wrote. Because this movie was so successful, Miyazaki was able to start his own animation company, Studio Ghibli.
One of Miyazaki's most loved movies is My Neighbour Totoro, made in 1987. It is a children's movie, but many teenagers and alts like it too. The movie is about two sisters who become friends with a big, supernatural (神奇的) animal named Totoro. It is a very warm-hearted story, with many strange and interesting characters such as Cat Bus, a cat which is also a bus. Miyazaki's
2001 movie, Spirited Away, was even more popular than My Neighbour Totoro.
All of Miyazaki's movies have strange but charming people and creatures. Many of his stories happen in worlds that are different from ours. However, they still show his ideas about real life. He often points out how humans hurt the natural world. He thinks people should change the ways how they live. This may be why so many people like his movies.

Tropical cyclones (热带旋风) are called typhoons (台风) in Asia, and hurricanes (飓风) in North and South America. These storms go around like a wheel(轮子) turning to the left. They have wind speeds of 60 kph or more. They can be very destructive (毁灭性的). In the United States, the Tropical Prediction Centre in Miami, Florida, looks out for hurricanes.
When scientists discover a true hurricane, they give it a name. They can use either a man's or woman's name. Why should hurricanes have names? The names make it easier for people to keep up with information about a hurricane and its dangers.
The World Meteorological Organization (WMO), an international weather group, decides what names will be used. The WMO makes six lists (列表) of names, using the English alphabet. Each list is used for one year. When a hurricane happens, it gets the next name on the list for that year. For example, the first hurricane of the year might have the name Abel, while the second one could be Betty. The name lists do not include (包含) names beginning with the letters O, U, X, Y, and Z, since there are few names that begin with these letters. Asian countries use a different list. This list has a few personal names, but most of the names are of flowers, animals and trees.
56. Why should hurricans have names?
A. It sounds interesting.
B. The names help people get information about a hurricane.
C. The names are only for the WMO.
D. It is traditional.
57. _________ decides what names will be used for hurricanes.
A. The Tropical Prediction Centre B. A scientist
C. The WMO D. Abel
58. Which name would a hurricane never have?
A. Rita. B. Veronica. C. William. D. Yanni.
59. The Fifth hurricane of 2010 might have the name ________.
A. Diana. B. Darren. C. Eric. D. Connie.
60. Asian countries name typhoons after ________.
A. books and buildings B. flowers and animals
C. mountains and rivers D. oceans and rivers
C
DJs (disc jockeys) are the people who play and present music on the radio, or in a nightclub. A VJ (video jockey) is a person who introces music videos on television.
VJs were first seen on television in the early 1980s when MTV went on the air. As MTV became popular and the audience for music videos increased, different kinds of music video channels started broadcasting. By the 1990s, international music video channels like Channel V in Asia and VIVA in Europe had started.
The VJs for the new international stations had to be chosen carefully. Although some VJs showed mostly local content (本地内容), other VJs presented shows for international viewers (电视观众). These VJs, and the material (素材) they presented, needed to be popular in several different cultures.
One successful international VJ in Asia is Asha Gill. She is from Malaysia, but her parents and grandparents are from India, France, and England. She speaks three languages and has fans across Asia.
When asked what makes a good VJ, many successful VJs have given similar answers. To be a good VJ you need to know a lot about music, you need to be funny, and you can't be shy.
61. DJs play music _________, while VJs introce music videos _________.
62. When did VJs first appear on television?
63. VJs for international channels should be chosen carefully because they have to be _________.
64. What kind of people can become good VJs?

“It's really cool to have a dad who flies fighter jets (喷气式战斗机),” thought 11-year-old Casey as she was watching him fly overhead.
Living on an Air Force base (空军基地) was not as bad as some people might think. Casey rather enjoyed being around friends who had something in common with each other. They had their own school, bowling area, and movie theatre. She especially loved it when her dad would come home each day and greet her with a new joke and tickles (搔痒).
Today was different, though. When her dad walked into the room, he looked sad for some reason. He just kissed her on the forehead and told her mum that he needed to talk to her. Casey knew something was wrong.
When her mum and dad came out of the other room, mum was crying. Dad sat down and began to explain that he has been told to go to Iraq to help with the war effort. Casey was so surprised that she couldn't speak for a moment. She began to feel tears in her eyes.
Soon, the day came. Her dad was leaving. It was hard for Casey to believe that she wouldn't be seeing her dad for a whole year. They depended on (依赖) him for so many things. Who would fix the broken window? Who would greet her with jokes and tickles at the end of the day? Casey began to cry more than ever.
68. According to the story, one thing Casey enjoyed on the base was that she and her friends _________.
69. How did Casey know that something was wrong when her dad got home?
70. How long would her dad be away?

From a plane we can see the fields, cities, mountains or seas below. If we go into space, we see more and more of the earth. People and man-made satellites have been sent out into space to look at the earth carefully and people have learnt more about the earth in the last few years.
The sea looks very beautiful when the sun is shining on it. But it can be very terrible when there is a strong wind.
The sea is very big. It nearly covers three quarters of the earth. The sea is also very deep in some places. There is one place and at that place the sea is about 11 kilometres deep. The highest mountain in the world is about 9 kilometres high. If that mountain was put into the sea at that place, there would be still 2 kilometres of water above it!
In most parts of the sea, there are many kinds of fishes and plants. Some live near the top of the sea. Others live deep down. There are also a lot of small living things, and lots of fishes live by eating them.
The sea can be very cold. When people go down, the sea becomes colder and colder. Only some men can go down into the deep sea. But, in 1970, five women scientists (科学家) lived in the deep sea for fourteen days.

I left home for New Zealand to start my new life on my 15th birthday.
My father and mother took me to Hong Kong, where we had to say goodbye. When we were saying goodbye, I suddenly felt afraid that I had never had before.
This was the first time I had traveled so far by myself. And going to a far-away place I have never been before made me feel terrible. I held back my tears until I could no longer see my parents. As I was wiping away(擦去)my tears, I realized(意识到)that, from that moment on, I would have to do everything by myself.
After my arrival in Wellington, my teacher, Ms. Lang, showed me around my new school.
A few days later, I started having classes. There were only 20 students in each class.
Only maths, science, social studies(社会学)and English were compulsory, and students could choose other subjects for themselves, I chose music, Japanese and health.
In New Zealand, students are very active in class. And teachers are not as serious(严肃的). They often let us play games in class. We can sit with anyone we like, and the teacher can sit at her own desk or at a student’s desk. The school had an easy manner, with few rules.
Because there was no homework, we could join clubs(俱乐部)or do anything we liked. I always went to the library after school, where I found a lot of books to help with my studies.
Studying in New Zealand is very different from studying in China. In New Zealand, students depend on(依靠)the library to gain knowledge instead of waiting for what teachers ask them to do.
Time went fast. The two months after I arrived flew by. Then a week of exams began.
I did not have to take these exams, because I had only been at the school for a short time. However, my maths teacher encouraged(鼓励)me to take the maths exam, as she thought I could do well.
Though there wasn’t much pressure(压力)on me, I worked very hard to get ready for the exam because I know that no pain means no gain(收获).
When the day of the exam came, I found that I finished the paper faster than the other students. One week later, my teacher told the whole class who had got the top mark: It was me! I got 94 percent.
All my classmates were very happy and said congratulations to me. It was one of the happiest days of my life.
59. The word “Wellington” in the fourth paragraph(段)is the name of _______.
A. the writer’s new teacher B. the writer’s new school
C. a city in New Zealand D. a person we don’t know
60. When she was wiping away her tears, the writer realized that________.
A. she had already arrived in New Zealand.
B. she could no longer see her parents in Hong Kong.
C. she had to say goodbye to her parents.
D. she would start a new life in New Zealand all by herself.
61. The word “compulsory” in the sixth paragraph means_______ in Chinese.
A. 必修的 B. 选修的 C. 义务的 D. 有责任的
62. The writer always went to the library because ________.
A. the teacher asked her to do so
B. she wanted to gain knowledge with the help of many books
C. she had no homework and had nothing to do
D. she must get ready for the exams
63. The writer didn’t have to take the exams, ________.
A. so she didn’t work hard to get ready for them
B. but she thought she could do well and took the maths exam
C. but she took the maths exam and did best of all in it
D. so she found she finished the paper faster than the others

The advertisement also mentions that the price includes 10 nights accommodation in a five-star hotel. Where exactly in Thailand is the hotel?
Finally, the advertisement mentions that there will be sightseeing tours of Thailand. Will there also be time to go shopping?
Thank you for your help.
Yours faithfully,

B) Possible versions:
a) Have you ever considered becoming a teacher? There are many advantages and disadvantages to doing this kind of job.
One of the main advantages to being a teacher is that it is rewarding because you work with children. Besides, it is exciting as you will teach lots of different things.
Nevertheless, a teacher's job can be difficult sometimes. First of all, it can be stressful because you have to do things in a very short time. Moreover, it is tiring because you have a lot of homework to correct.
All things considered, I think becoming a teacher is a good idea.
b) Have you ever considered becoming a doctor? There are many advantages and disadvantages to doing this kind of job.
One of the main advantages of being a doctor is that it is rewarding as you treat people. Besides, it is well paid because the job takes a lot of skill.
Nevertheless, a doctor's job can be very difficult sometimes. First of all, it can be depressing because you have to be around sick people all day. Moreover, it is a stressful job as you have to work long hours.
All things considered, I think becoming a doctor is a good idea as long as you know the disadvantages.

Question: What time will the party start?

M: I know. That's what I was doing, at Peter's house.
W: OK. Well, there's no traffic, so the bus should be quick.
Question: Why is Jack late?
B) You will hear a dialogue. Choose the best answer to each question. The dialogue will be read twice.
Boy: Summer vacation is finally here!
Girl: This was the hardest school year ever. So, what are you doing this summer?

This is a message for Marco Daniele. My name's David Dolby. I'm sorry I missed your call. I understand that you want some information about the volleyball club. The club meets once a week, on Wednesday evening. There are sometimes matches on Sunday morning, but those are just for our team players. Our meetings begin at a quarter to eight, and are about two and a quarter hours long, so we finish at ten. People like to get home in time for the 10:15 sports programme on television. We meet in the Jubilee Hall in Park Lane, behind the High Street. The hall doesn't have very good heating so you'll need to bring a sweater to put on afterwards. It's also quite expensive to rent, so our players pay £2.75 each week. I hope this answers all your questions and we'll be very pleased to see you at our next meeting!
B) You will hear a passage. Complete each blank according to passage you hear. The passage will be read twice.
Park Keeper: Now, ladies and gentlemen, just a few safety regulations before you drive off. The most important one is, stay in your car at all times. Otherwise you might end up as fast food; and you mustn't feed the animals; sometimes the zebras come close if they see you eating, but they don't need any more food, believe me! Never use flash photography, not even with koala bears hidden in the trees; they might be frightened. Also, you should keep your car windows closed; animals can be very curious! Last week, a monkey jumped into a car and the people were bitten. You are allowed to eat and drink in your cars, of course, but please remember that every car has been given rubbish bags. So throw any rubbish in there and not out of the window. And finally, please, don't make too much noise. If you listen, you will hear beautiful sounds, the animals, the water, the wind in the trees. And now ... [fade]
㈦ 英语阅读竞赛怎么弄
估计是科普类的吧
买书做题
答题的时候 注意拿铅笔划出一些关键词
读题,用圆圈圈出问的是什么 比如问原因 问对错 问主旨什么的
用波浪线划出 形容词比较级最高级 限定词 专有名词 导向性的词(如显然的,可以接受的)这些词是帮助你在文中定位在哪里找答案的
如果你总是看一遍又一遍再答题一定来不及
主要靠练习 还有不要纠结于一个单词
注意每段的首句 第二句 最后一句 里面通常包含 主旨和中心
还有注意一些所谓的提示词 但是 然而 虽然 什么的 它引导的信息通常都很重要 都在这上面出题
