An important question about eating out is who pays for the meal. If a friend of yours asks you to have lunch with him. You may say something like this, “I’m afraid it’ll have to be some place cheap, as I have very little money.” The other person may say, “OK, I’ll meet you at McDonald’s.” This means that two agree to go Dutch, that is, each person pays for himself. He may also say, “Oh, no. I want to take you to lunch at Johnson’s”, or “I want you to try the steak(牛排) there. It’s great.” This means the person wants to pay for both of you. If you feel friendly towards this person, you can go with him and you needn’t pay for the meal. You may just say, “Thank you. That would be very nice.” American customs about who pays for dates(约会) are much the same as in other parts of the world. In the old days, American women wanted men to pay for all the meals. But, today, a university girl or a woman in the business world will usually pay her own way during the day. If a man asks her to dinner or a dance outside the working hours, it means “come as my guest”. So as you can see, it is a polite thing to make the question clear at the very beginning.

英语阅读理解及答案4
If U.S. software companies don’t pay more attention to quality, they could kiss their business good-bye. Both India and Brazil are developing a world-class software industry. Their weapon is quality and one of their jobs is to attract the top U.S. quality specialists whose voices are not listened to in their country.
Already, of the world’s 12 software houses that have earned the highest rating in the world, seven are in India. That’s largely because they have used new methodologies rejected by American software specialists. For example, for decades, quality specialists, W. Edwards Deming and J. M. Juran had urged U.S. software companies to change their attitudes to quality. But their quality call mainly fell on deaf ears in the U.S. -but not in Japan. By the 1970s and 1980s, Japan was grabbing market share with better, cheaper products. They used Deming’s and Juran’s ideas to bring down the cost of good quality to as little as 5% of total production costs. In U.S. factories, the cost of quality then was 10 times as high: 50%. In software, it still is.
Watts S. Humphrey spent 27 years at IBM heading up software production and then quality assurance. But his advice was seldom paid attention to. He retired from IBM in 1986. In 1987, he worked out a system for assessing and improving software quality. It has proved its value time and again. For example, in 1990 the cost of quality at Raytheon Electronics Systems was almost 60% of total software production costs. It fell to 15% in 1996 and has since further dropped to below 10%.
Like Deming and Juran, Humphrey seems to be wining more praises overseas than at home. The India government and several companies have just founded the Watts Humphrey Software Quality Institute at the Software Technology Park in Chennai, India.
Let’s hope that U.S. lead in software will not be eaten up by its quality problems.
EXERCISE:
1. what country has more highest-rating companies in the world than any other country has?
A) Germany.
B) The U.S.
C) Brazil
D) India
2. Which of the following statements about Humphrey is true?
A) He is now still an IBM employer.
B) He has worked for IBM for 37 years.
C) The US pays much attention to his quality advice.
D) India honors him highly.
3. By what means did Japan grab its large market share by the 1970s and the 1980s?
A) Its products were cheaper in price and better in quality.
B) Its advertising was most successful.
C) The US hardware industry was lagging behind .
D) Japan hired a lot of India software specialists.
4.What does the founding of the Watts Humphrey Software Quality Institute symbolize?
A) It symbolizes the US determination to move ahead with its software
B) It symbolizes the India ambition to take the lead in software.
C) It symbolizes the Japanese efforts to solve the software quality problem.
D) It symbolizes the Chinese policy on importing software.
5.What is the writer worrying about?
A) Many US software specialists are working for Japan.
B) The quality problem has become a worldwide problem.
C) The US will no longer be the first software player in the world.
D) India and Japan are joining hands to compete with the US.

【—初三英语阅读理解综合练习及答案详解三】同学们，Several years ago，a television reporter was talking to three of the most important people in America，我们一起来看看下面老师整理的这个阅读理解综合练习及答案详解吧。
阅读理解综合练习
Several years ago， a television reporter was talking to three of the most important people in America. One was a very rich banker， another owned one of the largest companies in the world， and the third owned many buildings in the center of New York.
The reporter was talking to them about being important.
“How do we know if someone is really important?” the reporter asked the banker.
The banker thought for a few moments and then said， “I think anybody who is invited to the Whiter House to meet the President of the United States is really important.”
The reporter then turned to the owner of the very large company. “Do you agree with that?” she asked.
The man shook his head， “No. I think the President invites a lot of people to the White House. You‘d only be important if while you were visiting the President， there was a telephone call from the president of another country， and the President of the US said he was too busy to answer it.”
The reporter turned to the third man. “Do you think so?”
“No， I don‘t，” he said. “I don’t think that makes the visitor important. That makes the President important.”
“Then what would make the visitor important?” the reporter and the other two men asked.
“Oh， I think if the visitor to the White House was talking to the President and the phone rang， and the President picked up the receiver， listened and then said， ‘It’s for you.‘ ”

Not long ago, people thought babies were not able to learn things阅读理解答案
Not long ago, people thought babies were not able to learn things until they were five or six months old. Yet doctors in the United States say babies begin learning on their first day of life. Scientists note that babies are strongly influenced by their environment. They say a baby will smile if her mother does somethin the baby likes. A baby learns to get the best care possible by smiling to please her mother or other caregiver. This is how babies learn to connect and communicate with other human beings.
One study shows that babies can learn before they are born. The researchers placed a tape recorder on the stomach of a pregnant (怀孕的)woman. Then, they played a recording of a short story. On the day the baby was born, the researchers attempted to find if he knew the sounds of the story repeated while in his mother. They did this by placing a device in the mouth of the newborn baby.
The baby would hear the story if he moved his mouth one way. If the baby moved his mouth the other way, would hear a different story. The researchers say the baby clearly liked the story he heard before he was born. They say the baby would move his mouth so he could hear the story again and again.
Another study shows how mothers can strongly influence social development and language skills in their children. Researchers studied the children from the age of one month to three years. The researchers attempted to measure the sensitivity of the mothers. The women were considered sensitive if they supported their children’s activities and did not interfere ( 干预)unnecessarily. They tested the children for thinking and language development when they were three years old. Also, the researchers observed the women for signs of depression.The children of depressed women did not do as well in tests as the children of women who did not suffer
from depression. The children of depressed women did poorly in tests of language skills and understanding what they hear.
These children also were less cooperative and had more problems dealing with other people. The researchers noted that the sensitivity of the mothers was important to the intelligence development of their children. Children did ter when their mothers were caring, even when they suffered from depression.
52.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT the factor that influences intelligence development in babies
A. The environment.
B. Mother's sensitivity.
C. Their peers (同龄人)
D. Education before birth.
53.What is the purpose of the experiment in which newborn babies heard the stories
A. To prove that babies can learn before they are born.
B. To prove that babies can learn on the first day they are born.
C. To show mothers can strongly influence intelligence development in their babies.
D. To indicate early education has a deep effect on the babies' language skills.
54.Which group of children did the worst in tests of language skills
A. The children of depressed mothers who cared little for their children.
B. The children of women who did not suffer from depression.
C. The children of depressed but caring mothers.
D. Children with high communication abilities.
55.What is the main idea of the passage
A. Scientific findings about how babies develop before birth.
B. Scientific findings about how time has an effect on babies' intelligence.
C. A study shows babies are not able to learn things until they are rice or six months old.
D. Scientific findings about how intelligence develops in babies.

Nowadays more and more people care about the exploitation(开采)of the naturalresources, such as oil. Though there’re many kinds of resources, with the fast increase of population and the appearance of many more factories, the more we use, the fewer there will be left for the future, Oil is getting less and less year after year. It’s said that oil can last for only 50 years. Natural gas perhaps will last about 38 years.
Oil can be used in many ways and it’s difficult to imagine what the modern world will be like without oil. But oil isn’t easy to find and get out of the earth. Men must study the rocks. When they think the rocks in a certain place may have oil, a metal tower is built, A machine in the tower cuts a hole down into the ground. At the same time, a steel pipe(钢管)is pushed down to stop the sides from falling in and to keep out water. At last if the men are right, usually the oil rushes up the sides with great force(力量)by the pressure(压力)of the gas in the top of the rock, and it rushes high into the air. If the oil catches a light, there will be a terrible fire. So a kind of cover is fixed on the top of the pipe, and the oil can run out through taps(活塞).
If we make a well near the middle of the oil field, we can also get gas. Such gas is sent through pipes to towns far away and used in houses and factories like coal gas.
Today oil is under pressure as never before. The price of oil keeps rising all the time. In many countries, the governments encourage people to save oil as much as possible.
46.The word “resources” in the passage means ____.
A.资源B.现象C.商品
47.Which is the right order of the exploitation of oil?
a. Push down a steel pipe. b. Study the rocks.c. Build a metal tower. d. Oil rushes up.
A. b,c,d,a B. b,a,c,d C. b,c,a,d
48.Which of the following can be true according to(根据)the passage?
A. Coal gas can’t be used in houses and factories.
B. Oil is very important in the modern world.
C. Many governments encourage people to waste oil as much as possible.
49.According to the passage, the right picture to show the tendency(趋势)to the amount (数量) of oil on the earth is ____.
50.The best title for the passage is____ .
A. The Exploitation of Oil. B. The Use of Oil C. The Price of Oil

英语阅读理解及答案10
Experts believe that there are more than 8 million restaurants in the world today. So it might surprise you to learn that restaurants, as we know them, have only existed for a few centuries. Before 1765, there were no restaurants. That is, there were no places that provided the restaurant experience. There was nowhere in which a waiter brought you food and drink that you picked from a menu. In fact, there were no menus anywhere. There were eating places travellers could go to centuries before that. The countryside was full of inns that would serve food. And there were taverns where one could get drinks. The rich could also eat special meals prepared by private cooks. But none of them could be called a “restaurant”.
A man called Boulanger changed that. In 1765, he opened a place in Paris that sold soups(汤). On his sign he used the word "restaurant" to describe what he was selling. At that time, soups were considered something that could help "restore"(恢复)your health- in French the word "restore" is “restaurer”--- so he called the soups "restaurants". Soon, people started buying Boulanger's soups even when they were not ill. And over time, people began to use the word "restaurant" to refer to a place selling soup rather than the soup itself. More "restaurants" opened in France, and people began to buy soups more often.
Later, restaurants in Paris began to serve other food besides soup. In the 1790s, menus started to appear. By the mid-1800s, there were many types of restaurants throughout the world. The United States offered coffee shops. Tea houses became popular throughout China. Paris created beautiful restaurants for the rich. The British began to copy the French, and the restaurant idea spread throughout the British Empire. Today cities are filled with all types of restaurants. Diners have millions of options from which to choose. 1. What is the passage mainly about? A. How restaurants developed B. What made a good restaurant. C. Who created the first restaurant D. Why restaurants became popular. 2. According to the first paragraph, what made restaurants different from earlier eating places? A. Restaurants only served food B. Restaurants were more expensive C. Restaurants were mainly in cities D. Restaurants had a list of meal choices 3. Who did Boulanger expect to come and eat at his restaurant? A. Rich people B. Sick people. C. Travellers. D. Workers. 4. When it was first used. what did the word "restaurant" refer to? A. A person. B. A place. C. Illness. D. Soup. 5. When did restaurants begin to grow internationally? A. In the 1600s. B. In the 1700s.
C. In the 1800s. D. In the 1900s.

英语阅读理解及答案15
When I was growing up in America, I was ashamed of my mother's Chinese English. Because of her English, she was often treated unfairly. People in department stores, at banks, and at restaurants did not take her seriously, pretended not to Understand her, or even acted as if they did not hear her.
My mother has realized the disadvantages of her English as well. When I was fifteen, she used to have me call people on phone to pretend I was she. I was forced to ask for information or even to yell at people who had been rude to her. One time I had to call her stockbroker (股票经纪人).I said in a voice that was not very convincing,“This is Mrs.Tan.”And my mother was standing beside me, whispering loudly,“Why he doesn't send me the cheek. It's already two weeks late.”
And then ,in perfect English I said:“I'm getting rather anxious .You agreed to send the check two weeks ago, but it hasn't arrived.”Then she talked more loudly. “What does he want? I'll come to New York and say it in front of his boss.”And so I turned to the stockbroker again,“I can't accept any more excuses. If I don't receive the check immediately, I have to speak to your manager when I am in New York next week.”
The next week we ended up in New York. While I was sitting there red-faced, my mother, the real Mrs.Tan, was shouting to his boss in her broken English.When I was a teenager, my mother's broken English embarrassed me. But now, I see it differently. To me, my mother's English is perfectly clear, perfectly natural. It is my mother tongue. Her language, as I hear it, is clear and direc t. It was the language that helped me form the way I saw things, expressed ideas, and made sense of the world.
