一、九年级中考英语阅读理解（人生百味）（含答案详细解析）
1．阅读理解

    As a young woman， my mother worked in the kitchen of a large farm owned by Fanny Cratty. She was hardworking and had a special skill in making delicious strawberry jam.
    Aunt Fanny was single and had no children. She didn't like to share love with others. I thought she was very lonely， although she didn't mind it. She had a workshop where my mother helped her make the best strawberry jam， and everyone in our town bought it. But aunt Fanny asked my mother not to tell the recipe（秘方） of making the strawberry jam to others.

    When the strawberries were ripe， my family would pick them together. We talked and laughed， experiencing the fun of picking strawberries. But aunt Fanny never joined us. She just asked us to pick strawberries quickly and make more strawberry jam to make more money for her. Each person in our town said that she just paid attention to money rather than anything else. What a poor woman! It's no use having too much money because she had no family and friends to share her happiness during her lifetime.
    Maybe it was the recipe that brought success to aunt Fanny. But to me， it was just a common recipe. Money can make you feel rich for a while， but it is the beautiful days spent with family and friends that truly make you rich.

（3）—What does the last word “rich” mean in this passage?

—It means ________.

Several months later, I couldn't get through a conversation without coughing.
    Finally, I went to see a doctor. He told me I had COPD（慢肺阻）. He said I had to stop smoking. I wasn't sure I could make it. To be honest, I wasn't sure I wanted to. He said that it would get harder to breathe if I didn't stop smoking, and that one day I might have to be seriously ill in bed. That made me so scared enough that I decided to give a try. However, after a few days, I failed. I knew it would be harder when I spent a lot of time with my best friend who was a smoker.
