Mrs. White is 98 years old and nobody has finished high school at an older age.Mrs. White dropped out of school(退学) in the 10th grade, but her ability to learn has clearly not been reduced after she left school for 80 years.

Suddenly, I heard the sound of a guitar.I followed the sound and found out that was a band. I recognized the guitar player at my first sight and so did he.“Hey, you’re Cassie from my class!” his voice surprised me.“I’m sorry,” I said. “I just haven’t heard any live music in this town before! You sound great—did you guys write that song?”“Yeah—well, we’re still working on it. I’m Matt.” He stood up and held out his hand.“Mind if I listen in?” I asked in a low voice.“Not at all,” Matt said, smiling. “Maybe you can give us some suggestions!”The song was pretty good and I could really improve it with my drum skills.

Unlike fossil fuels, which are finite and contribute to global warming when burned, solar power is clean and virtually inexhaustible. The technology behind harnessing solar energy has improved dramatically over the past few decades, making it more efficient and affordable for many people around the world.Solar panels, which are used to collect sunlight and convert it into electricity, are typically made up of photovoltaic (PV) cells. These cells are usually made from silicon, a material abundant in the Earth’s crust. When sunlight hits the PV cells, it excites the electrons within the silicon atoms, causing them to move and generate an electric current. This process is known as the photovoltaic effect.Installing solar panels not only helps reduce reliance on non-renewable energy sources but also can significantly lower electricity bills for homeowners and businesses. Furthermore, solar energy projects have the potential to create jobs and stimulate local economies, especially in rural areas where large solar farms are often constructed.1.What is the main advantage of solar energy over fossil fuels according to the passage?2.How do solar panels generate electricity?3.List two benefits of installing solar panels mentioned in the text.Answers:1.The main advantage of solar energy over fossil fuels is that it is clean and virtually inexhaustible, whereas fossil fuels are finite and contribute to global warming.2.Solar panels generate electricity through the photovoltaic effect, wheresunlight excites electrons within the silicon atoms in PV cells, causing them to move and generate an electric current.3.Two benefits of installing solar panels are that they help reduce reliance on non-renewable energy sources and can lower electricity bills. Additionally, solar energy projects can create jobs and boost local economies.以上就是阅读理解题目及其答案，请根据实际教学大纲调整难度和内容。

During sleep, the brain is actively involved in strengthening the connections between neurons, which is essential for memory formation. Research has shown that the quality of sleep directly impacts the ability to retain information.One study focused on the effect of sleep on memory retention. Participants were divided into two groups: one group was allowed to sleep after studying new information, while the other group was kept awake. After a period of time, both groups were tested on the new information. The group that was allowed to sleep performed significantly better on the test than the group that was kept awake.The study also examined the role of sleep stages in memory consolidation. It was found that deep sleep, also known as slow-wave sleep (SWS), is particularly important for memory consolidation. During SWS, the brain is less active, allowing for the strengthening of neural connections. In contrast, during REM (rapid eye movement) sleep, the brain is more active and involvedin other cognitive processes, such as dreaming and problem-solving.Moreover, the amount of sleep is also a factor in memory retention. Studies have shown that getting enough sleep is crucial for memory consolidation. Inadequate sleep can lead to difficulties in recalling information, while sufficient sleep can enhance memory performance.Questions:1.What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To explain the importance of sleep in memory consolidation.B. To compare different types of sleep on memory performance.C. To describe a specific study on the effect of sleep on memory.D. To provide tips on how to improve sleep quality.2.According to the passage, which type of sleep is most important for memory consolidation?A. REM sleepB. Deep sleep (SWS)C. WakefulnessD. Light sleep3.How does the passage suggest that sleep affects memory retention?A. By increasing brain activityB. By reducing neural connectionsC. By allowing the brain to rest and strengthen connectionsD. By preventing neural connections from formingAnswers:1.A. To explain the importance of sleep in memory consolidation.2.B. Deep sleep (SWS)3.C. By allowing the brain to rest and strengthen connections三、完型填空（15分）Passage:In the small town of Willow Creek, there was a legend about the old, abandoned lighthouse on the rocky shore. Many believed that the lighthouse was haunted, but young Emma was determined to prove them wrong. One crisp autumn evening, she decided to explore the lighthouse on her own.As she climbed the steep, winding staircase, Emma felt a chill run down her spine. She could hear the wind howling outside, but the inside of the lighthouse was surprisingly warm. She reached the top and was greeted by a grand view of the ocean. The lighthouse had three windows, one on each side, and a large, round window at the front.Emma noticed that the windows on the sides were smaller than the one at the front. She remembered her history teacher talking about the importance of light in guiding ships at night. She realized that the smaller windows were to reduce the amount of light scattered, allowing the beam of the lighthouse to be more focused and visible to ships far away.Suddenly, she heard a faint whisper behind her. She spun around, but therewas no one there. She dismissed it as her imagination and continued her exploration. She reached the lighthouse keeper’s room and found a small, old diary. As she began to read, she learned about the lighthouse keeper’s life and the stories he had collected from passing sailors.One entry particularly caught her attention:“October 15th, 1923 - Last night, I saw a ghostly figure standing by the lighthouse. It looked like an old sailor, but his face was twisted in pain. I couldn’t understand what he was trying to say. I hope I can solve this mystery before it’s too late.”Emma knew she had to find out what had happened to the sailor. She decided to search the lighthouse for clues. She looked in every corner, behind every piece of furniture, and even checked the attic. Finally, she found a small, dusty box hidden behind a loose board in the attic.Inside the box, she found a collection of old maps, a worn-out compass, and a faded photograph of a sailor. The photograph showed a young man standing by the lighthouse, his eyes filled with sorrow. Emma knew she was on the right track.She looked at her watch and realized it was getting late. She had to get back home, but she promised herself she would come back the next day to continue her investigation. As she left the lighthouse, she couldn’t shake the feeling that she was being watched.Questions:1.Why did Emma decide to explore the lighthouse on her own?A) She was curious about the legend.B) She was bored and wanted to have an adventure.C) She wanted to prove the legend was true.D) She had a personal connection to the lighthouse.2.What did Emma realize about the lighthouse’s windo ws?A) They were all the same size.B) The smaller windows were to reduce light scattering.C) The large window was to allow more light into the lighthouse.D) The windows were all covered with thick curtains.3.What did Emma find in the lighthouse keeper’s room?A) A collection of old maps and a worn-out compass.B) A photograph of a happy sailor.C) A letter from a friend.D) A list of the lighthouse’s past keepers.4.What did the entry in the diary suggest?A) The lighthouse was not haunted.B) The lighthouse keeper was crazy.C) The lighthouse had a ghostly figure.D) The lighthouse was abandoned.5.What did Emma promise herself after finding the box?A) She would forget about the lighthouse.B) She would come back the next day to continue her investigation.C) She would tell her friends about her adventure.D) She would never set foot in the lighthouse again.Answers:1.A2.B3.A4.C5.B四、语法填空题（本大题有10小题，每小题1分，共10分）1、In the summer vacation, we__________(go) to the beach every day.

请根据以下提示，用英文写一篇短文，介绍你们学校的做法和取得的效果，希望更多人加入到这个行动中。
提示：关灯，植树，骑行，垃圾分类。
Dear all,I'm Li Hua from Class 3 Grade 9. I'd like to share with you what our school has done to reduce carbon emissions and its positive effect.Firstly, we turned off the lights when we left the classroom or office, which saved a lot of electricity. Some students even brought candles to school and used it when the lighting was not needed.Secondly, we planted about 120 trees around the school. It not only provided us with fresh and pure air, but also beautified our environment.Thirdly, we encouraged students to ride bikes or walk to school instead of driving or taking buses. It alleviated traffic pressure and improved health conditions.Last but not least, our school carried out garbage sorting to reduce the amount of waste. We classified the waste into different bins labeled "recycling", "food waste" and "other waste". It's really a good way to protect the environment, isn't it?All in all, by joining this action, we gained more mutual understanding with each other and also secured a cleaner and more pleasant campus. I hope this pleasant change can be promoted in the society and contributed to global sustainable development.Yours sincerely,Li Hua。

Trees not only produce oxygenand help clean the air we breathe by absorbing pollutants such as carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide, but they also provide numerous benefits that are often overlooked.Firstly, trees contribute to reducing urban heat. They act as natural air conditioners, working all day to cool the air through evaporation from their leaves. This cooling effect can reduce temperatures in cities by several degrees, making them more comfortable places to live.Secondly, trees play a vital role in the water cycle and soil conservation. Their roots bind the soil, preventing erosion, and the fallen leaves enrich the soil with nutrients when they decompose. Moreover, trees help maintain the water table by facilitating the infiltration of rainwater into the ground.Lastly, trees have a positive impact on mental health. Studies have shown that spending time around trees and green spaces can lower stress levels and improve mood. In addition, trees can enhance the beauty of our surroundings and provide habitats for wildlife, contributing to biodiversity.Given these benefits, it is clear that planting and maintaining trees should be a priority for individuals and communities alike.Comprehension Questions:1.What are two ways that trees help improve air quality?2.How do trees contribute to reducing urban heat?3.According to the passage, what is one benefit of trees related to human health?Answers:1.Trees help improve air quality by producing oxygen and absorbing pollutants like carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide.2.Trees contribute to reducing urban heat by acting as natural air conditioners, cooling the air through evaporation from their leaves.3.One benefit of trees related to human health is that spending time around trees can lower stress levels and improve mood.This exercise can be used to assess the stu dent’s ability to comprehend key points from a given text and to practice summarizing information accurately.三、完型填空（15分）Section III: Reading Comprehension (15 points)Complete the following passage by choosing the most appropriate word or phrase from the options given below.If you’re looking for a way to improve your health, 1)_______exercise regularly is a great start.

A few hours into the trip, we took a wrong turn. But our trusty GPS pulled up a map of the area and got us back. It made me wonder: Who created maps in the first place? After some searching online, I learned that people who map out roads, mountains, oceans, and other places around the world are called cartographers.What does a cartographer do?Cartographers, also called mapmakers, study geographic information. They use this information to make maps of places around the world. Some of these maps are digital. They are often used in GPS. Other maps are printed in books. To do their work, cartographers put together information from many different places. They also use ground surveys (调查). Some do ground surveys themselves. Most cartographers, however, depend on surveyors for this important information. Surveyors collect information for mapmaking. They measure (测量) land, air space, and water areas.What does it take to be a cartographer?Most cartographers have a bachelor’s degree. The degree might be in cartography, geography, or something similar. Students who are interested in becoming cartographers should learn as much as they can about geography. It also helps to take courses in math and computer science.With the rise of computer-based tools such as GPS, cartographers need stronger computer skills than they did in the past.___________In the US, jobs for cartographers are expected to grow. This is due to the increasing use ofmaps in the armed forces. Also, digital maps have increasingly become a main part of GPS.According to what I’ve read about cartographers, I’d say that their work is very important to a lot of people. Next time a map keeps me from getting lost, I’ll be sure to thank a cartographer! 31．In Paragraph 1, the writer included his experience in order to show ________.A．the GPS is only needed when driving to another placeB．it is common to get lost on a tripC．a mapmaker’s work is importantD．the GPS is not always useful32．The writer talked about cartographers from ________ aspects.A．two B．three C．four D．five 33．Surveyors can do all these following things except (除了) ________.A．doing ground surveys B．collecting informationC．doing some mapping D．doing some measuring34．Which of the following best fits the blank in the passage?A．Will more cartographers be needed?B．Will the cartographers be replaced by robots?C．Why is it hard for cartographers to find jobs?D．Why do cartographers make different maps?【D】What is the best place you have ever visited?◎Japan in April during the Cherry Blossom Festival (樱花节). April is the most beautiful time to go there and it’s a great time to see the sights and learn about the culture.◎Have your eyes ever rested upon the pyramids in Egypt?
