中考真题2024年甘肃省兰州市阅读理解B-三伏天的常识与养生
The dog days, also called Sanfutian in Chinese, refer to the hottest and most humid days of the year. This hottest period can be different from year to year. It starts in July and lasts for about 30 to 40 days. It has three stages: Chufu. Zhongfu and Mofu. Zhongfu is usually the hottest of the three.
Because of the high temperatures, people may feel uncomfortable and have a poor appetite (胃口). Some even get sick from eating too many cold foods.
To stay healthy, it is important to choose the proper foods during the dog days. Foods which are easy to digest (消化) and full of protein (蛋白质), are good choices, such as various vegetables, chicken, eggs and peanuts. It’s better not to eat uncooked, cold or spicy foods. Besides choosing the proper foods, the taste of a dish is also important. Sour taste can improve the appetite and bitter taste makes people feel refreshed.
As a saying goes, “Eating a chicken at the beginning of the dog days will keep you healthy for a whole year.” Therefore, as soon as the dog days arrive, it will be better for you to choose proper foods to keep healthy.
1.1. Which of the following statements can describe the dog days properly?
A The warmest days of the year.
B The coolest days of the year.
C The hottest days of the year.
D The coldest days of the year.
解析：选C。C 细节理解题。原文首句明确指出三伏天是一年中最热、最潮湿的日子，A（最温暖）、B（最凉爽）、D（最冷）均与原文不符。
2.2. What can people choose to eat during the dog days in the passage?
A Cold foods.
B Spicy foods.
C Uncooked foods.
D Foods full of protein.
解析：选D。D 细节理解题。原文第三段提到易消化、富含蛋白质的食物是三伏天的好选择，同时明确建议不吃生冷、辛辣、生食，故A、B、C均排除。
3.3. How many days are there in Zhongfu this year according to the picture?
A 10.
B 20.
C 30.
D 40.
解析：选B。B 细节理解题。结合三伏天的常识，中伏通常为20天（题目提及图片但无图，按三伏天常规时长作答），10天多为初/末伏，30、40天并非中伏时长。
4.4. What is the Chinese meaning of the underlined sentence in paragraph 4?
A “起伏吃只鸡，一年好身体。”
B “中伏食仙草，酷暑绕道走。”
C “头伏吃三宝，健康少不了。”
D “末伏吃三宝，不劳郎中跑。”
解析：选A。A 句意理解题。原句意为“在三伏天开始时吃一只鸡，能让你一整年都保持健康”，“beginning of the dog days”对应“起伏/头伏”，核心是“吃鸡保健康”，其余选项均与原句内容无关。
5.5. What is the passage mainly about?
A The saying about the dog days.
B The feeling of the dog days.
C The knowledge about the dog days.
D The weather during the dog days.
解析：选C。C 主旨大意题。全文围绕三伏天展开，介绍了其定义、时段、高温的影响、饮食建议和相关俗语，A（仅俗语）、B（仅身体感受）、D（仅天气）均为文章片面内容，无法概括主旨。
