Every time when the scores came out, her scores wouldn’t be the first or second but last. Dark clouds always flashed in her eyes. When I invited her to the teachers’ office, we never talked about studies or scores but I would make some jokes instead.The exam results finally came out and she did pass! Since then she had never been heard from again.Two days before the Spring Festival Eve, I was shopping in a supermarket. Suddenly an excited voice came into my ear, “Hello, Mr. Deng.”I looked up and there she stood, working part-time during her college holidays. From her happy face, I could see she was busy and happy. “Mr. Deng, I am in the second year of my college. You helped me get through my darkest time.

Recently, an app competition for middle school students was held in Shanghai, China. A group of middle school students from around China presented their inventions at the competition.Zhang Shalin, who studies in WFLMS(上海市世界外国语中学), has invented an app called Health Helper. His app is very useful. It tells people when and how to do exercise every day.Zhang Jichen, a Grade Nine student from Beijing, was troubled by bad air, so he invented an app that can calculate PMa.5.“It is difficult to make an app. You have to be really careful and patient. Sometimes, you have to try again and again. But I enjoy doing it. It’s so interesting,”said Zhang Yuqi, another student from WFLMS. Many interesting apps have left a deep impression on the engineers from Google at the competition.What kind of app do you want to make? You may try to make one, too!根据短文内容，回答下列问题。

When the coach started pitching, hitting became 1 for me. I missed every single pitch. From the side, I heard my teammate Emily laughing at me. My face got hot and my throat felt like it had a softball stuck in. At that moment, I was starting to 2 playing softball.The next afternoon, when Mum said it was time to play the game, I told her I was 3 . She allowed me to lie down for a while. So I went to my room and 4 myself in bed. This was difficult for me because I was fine.Soon Mum came in and said, "Time to go!" She didn't even ask if I felt 5 . I imagined Emily laughing from the sideline, and 6 I really did feel sick to my stomach. I began crying loudly. Still, Mum pulled my team T-shirt over my head. She said, "You have to play for the rest of the season, and only after that we can talk about 7 you′ll continue next year." She added that practice was what I needed, not giving up. She promised to practice with me.I got two hits that afternoon, and Emily didn't make a 8 .

But sleeping can also be dangerous because other animals may hurt those who are sleeping. This leads to many different ways of sleeping that help them stay safe. Some of these ways may surprise you!Almost all bats sleep upside down. They hang from a branch of a t ree or the ceiling of a cave. Up high, bats are safe from most other animals. If they are in danger, they just fly away.A dolphin sleeps with just half its brain at a time. It must stay awake to breathe and to watch for danger. Dolphin mothers and babies can go without sleep for as long as two months to stay safe.Some ducks sleep with just half their brains, too. These ducks often sleep in a line. The ducks at both ends help to keep the group safe. They keep one eye open to watch for danger. The ducksin the middle sleep deeply with both eyes closed.Seals breathe air, but that doesn’t stop some of them from sleeping underwater. They hold their breath and dive deep to sleep for up to twenty minutes at a time. Sleeping deep underwater helps these seals stay safe from animals that hunt them near the surface.Horses often sleep standing up. Their legs lock in place so they don’t fall over. If a horse is lying down, it needs a long time to get up. A horse can run from danger more quickly if it is already standing.A flamingo can sleep while standing on one leg. The standing leg locks so it stays straight. The other leg remains close to the flamingo’s body. Its head rests on its back. A flamingo lives (and sleeps) near many other birds to stay safe.Some seabirds can sleep while they fly. These large birds spend most of their lives over the ocean. They are in danger on the water, but they are safe in the air. They fly for many hours without flapping（拍打）their wings. Sometimes they sleep while they are flying.Would you like to sleep how they sleep?1. The animals that sleep with half their brains are _______.A. ducks and sealsB. dolphins and ducksC. bats and dolphinsD. flamingos and seabirds2. Horses often stand up when they sleep because _______.A. they can run from danger quicklyB. they are afraid of falling overC. this helps them to sleep deeplyD. it takes them a long time to go to sleep3. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. How animals sleepB. Sleep to stay healthyC. Sleep as animals doD. What sleeping animals are likeBLizzie's diary from Antarctica(南极洲)Day 3:Tuesday December 2We planned to go to Rothera that morning. We'd be staying there for the next two weeks. Because Antarctica is the windiest place on earth，sometimes you can't fly at all.We had a nervous wait over breakfast to find out if we'd be leaving that day. People have to stay in Stanley for weeks while the pilots wait for good weather.It turned clear at 9:30 and we took off at 10:30 on a little red plane called a Dash-7. But even when we were in the air，there was still a chance we wouldn't be able to fly the whole day.Day 4:Wednesday December 3After waking up in the Antarctic for the first time today I can understand why everybody who comes here falls in love with the place. It is really beautiful.We're staying at Rothera Survey base with mountains of ice all around. It's about minus 2℃today, which for me is very cold, but the regulars(常客)here are often seen walking around in T-shirts!Day 5:Thursday December 4I woke up to another beautiful sunny day here in the Antarctic. I'm told it's a bit colder today，about minus 5℃，but it's not very windy so it feels warmer. Those of us who are new to the base have to do a special training course before we're allowed to go off base to other stations or to go snowboarding over the nearby hill.Day 7:Saturday December 6Not a cloud in the sky and it's warm enough to sit outside(in a jacket).The most amazing thing about this place is how the scenery(风景)changes every day. At first I thought I was going mad. I'd step outside in the morning and think，"I'm sure that big mountain of ice wasn't there yesterday." It's because the sea ice is always moving一slowly thankfully!4. Lizzie sat outside wearing a jacket on .A. TuesdayB. WednesdayC. ThursdayD. Saturday5. What could stop Lizzie from leaving Stanley for Rothera?A. Strong winds.B. Thick clouds.C. Mountains of ice.D. Low temperatures.6. How did Lizzie feel during her stay in the Antarctic?A. Afraid.B. Nervous.C. Amazed.D. Bored.7. What impressed Lizzie most about Rothera was that .A. people walked around in T-shirtsB. there was a special training courseC. the weather was sometimes warmD. the scenery changed every dayCNowadays more and more children seem to get lost in a "sea of digital(数字) technology". As they use digital technology too much, they are losing their ability to do simple things. They can't make toys themselves with hands or help Mum cook dinner. And worst of all, they seem to be losing interest in communicating with others."I have talked with a number of teachers. They care about the increasing numbers of young pupils who can play with computers or smart phones, but have few or no skills to make things." said a teacher, Colin Kinney. "Many pupils can't communicate with other pupils but their parents talk proudly of their ability to use a computer or a smart phone."Instead of playing with other children, more and more children are choosing to stay indoors and quietly play on a tablet (平板电脑)on weekends and fter scriool. How can a child grow up to be a very good artist if he doesn't learn how to use a paintbrush and develop his painting skill? How can a child learn to make friends as he gets older if he doesn't learn to communicate with others at a young age?Digital technology can be used for good or bad. We can use a stone to either break a window or build a house. We shouldn′t blame the children. We should help them make right choices. It is certainly necessary for children to know how to use digital technology in today's world, but whatis more important, we should encourage them to develop social abilities which will do them good when they grow up.8. What's the worst problem that is mentioned in the first paragraph?A. Children can't make things themselves.B. Children make too many friends online.C. Children don't want to communicate with others.D. Children don't like helping Mum cook meals at home.9. According to Colin Kinney, which of the following is TRUE?A. Teachers don't notice that young pupils have few skills to make things.B. Many parents are very happy that their kids can use digital technology.C. Many teachers don't care if young pupils can play computers or tablets.D. Some parents are worried that their kids use digital technology too much.10. What do many young children choose to do on weekends and after school?A. To play on a tablet indoors.B. To paint with their paintbrushes.C. To play with other children.D. To make friends with other children.11. What does the underlined word "blame" mean in Chinese?A.表扬B.原谅C.评价D.责怪12. What does the writer mainly want to tell us?A. It's very important for children to have social skills.B. It's very helpful for children to do some housework.C. It's necessary for parents to learn to use digital technology.D. It's difficult for teachers to make right choices for their pupils.四、词汇检测(10分)1. His last public concert will be on in Shanghai in a (几个)of months.2. He has much (经验)as an engineer.3. This writer (接到)thousands of letters every month in the past.4. She looked up for a while, and then (继续)writing her paper.5.—Where's Miss Ma? —She is answering an (国际的)call next door.6.

I just saw the cleaning woman a few times. She was tall with golden hair and about fifty years old, but how would I know her name? It was not my business. I handed in my paper, leaving the last question empty. Just before our class ended, one student asked if the last question would count towards our quiz grade. “Of course it will,” said the teacher. “In your life, you will meet many people.

He has been taking photos of rocker launches (火箭发射) for different magazines since 2016, as well as selling them to different buyers. He’s even traveled to California just to take photos of two different rocket launches.He started his journey in early 2015. At that time he was a 15-year-old boy living in Satellite Beach, Florida, near the Kennedy Space Center. He had used his birthday and Christmas easy to buy a DSLR camera and began practising by shooting rocket launches. Living on Florida’s Space Coast gave him many chances to practise.However, he wasn’t sure his hobby was going to be his life’s work. “When I first started in early 2015, photographing rockets was just like ‘Oh, look, there’s a launch tomorrow night I guess I’ll take photos!” Kraus wrote.But online attention and increasing photo sales led him to take a look deeper at his bobby. Could he really tum his hobby into his career? After graduating high school, he decided to work as a full-time photographer. Kraus spoke about some of the challenges of deciding what kind of job he wanted to do.“Parents, teachers and all of those around us often say we should know as soon as possible what we want to do with our life,” he said. “It’s okay to not know what you want to do! Bur it’s important to try new things. Never pass down a chance to try or experience something new. You’ll never know when you find the aim of your life; it could be right in front of you.”( ) 21.
