中考真题2020年江苏省苏州市阅读理解D篇-人生哲理


“This is John,” said Mr Turner. The boy standing next to him was tall, with a friendly face. I noticed Adam and Chen give each other the thumbs (大拇指) up. That meant they were going to invite him to join the cool group. They smiled at him and he smiled back.

Mr Turner always gave new students a buddy with the same hobbies as them. I was sure he wouldn’t choose me. I wasn’t one of the cool kids.
“Hyun, I want you to be John’s buddy this term,” said Mr Turner. Me? I couldn’t believe my ears! Everyone in the class looked in my direction. Adam and Chen even looked unhappy.
John walked over to my desk and sat down beside me. He smiled at me. “Hello,” he said in a confident voice.
“Hello,” I replied, not looking at him.
All morning I could feel the boys in the cool group looking angrily at me, but John didn’t seem to notice.
Finally the bell rang for a break. I had butterflies in my stomach. I knew that Adam and Chen were going to make fun of me in front of John, and that John would decide that he’d rather be buddies with them.
Sure enough, as soon as we got outside, Adam and Chen swaggered (大摇大摆地走) up to us.
“Mr Turner says you’re a good basketball player, John,” said Adam.“How’d you like to play with us at lunch break? Hyun doesn’t know anything about basketball."
“No thanks,” said John.“I’d rather play chess with Hyun, if he doesn’t mind. Mr Turner says he’s an excellent player.”
I was walking on air as John and I crossed the playground. I remembered the saying we learnt in class about not judging (判断) a book by its cover. I completely misjudged John.

1.The underlined “him” in Paragraph 1 refers to _______.

A Adam

B Mr Turner

C Chen

D John

解析：选D。D 词义猜测题。Adam亚当；Mr Turner特纳先生；Chen陈；John约翰。根据上文中“This is John”可知，特纳先生向我们介绍了约翰，亚当和陈竖起大拇指，他们想要邀请约翰加入这个很酷的团体，所以此处使用him代替John。故选D。

2.The sentence “I was walking on air…” in the last paragraph shows that the writer felt_______.

A happy

B nervous

C calm

D lonely

解析：选A。A 细节理解题。根据上文中“I’d rather play chess with Hyun, if he doesn’t mind. Mr Turner says he’s an excellent player.”可知，约翰宁愿和作者下象棋，因为特纳先生说作者是一个优秀的棋手，所以约翰的这一席话让作者感到很开心。故选A。

3.What can we learn from the story?

A Adam and Chen were not only cool but also friendly.

B Hyun realized appearance didn’t always tell the truth.

C John didn’t want to make friends with Hyun at first.

D Hyun was a cool kid and good at playing basketball.

解析：选B。B 主旨大意题。根据最后一段中“I remembered the saying we learnt in class about not judging (判断) a book by its cover. I completely misjudged John.”并结合全文可知，本文讲述了班里来了新同学约翰，作者认为约翰不会选择自己作为朋友，但是后来发现约翰并不是自己所想的那样，他们成了很好的朋友，所以作者意识到不能依靠外表判断一个人，因为外表不能说明真相。故选B。
