The future seemed terrible and many were____if they would make it through the storm.Then , I____saw a little girl. It seemed that the storm meant____to her. She sat on her seat reading a book.

I couldn’t believe my eyes. When the plane finally reached New York, I was not surprised to____that all the passengers were hurrying to come out. I stopped and spoke to the girl whom I had____for such a long time.

You, too? I thought I was the only one.”Have you ever said this to someone? If so, you may have ended up becoming friends with this person.It seems that similarity often helps form friendships. The Greek f philosopher (哲学家) Aristotle once said, “Some define (下定义) it ‘friendship’as a matter of similarity; they say that we love those who are like ourselves.”Now, there is some science behind this idea. Scientists from University of California said friends have similar brains, Scientific American reported.The scientists invited 42 university students to take part in an experiment. Each student watched the same set of videos, which included a comedy f a discussion and a soccer match. Meanwhile, scientists study their brains and recorded their brain activity.According to their study, friends who watched the same video clips reacted in similar ways. Similar parts of their brains lit up while watching the videos, especially parts that are connected with motivation (动力), learning and memory.However, people who weren’t friends had different reactions to the same clips. Having close friends whose brains read like ours “may be rewarding because it makes one’s own values, opinions, and interests strength,”lead scientist Carolyn Parkinson told Business Insider.But brain similarity is not the only thing that can result in friendship. Scientists from the University of Leipzig, Germany, found that friendship is also based on how physically close you are to someone.They did an experiment with first-year college students who met in class for the firsttime. In this experiment, students who sat in neighboring seats were more likely to become friends.根据材料内容选择最佳答案。

In fact, you might see similar things in many other cities. Chinese products have been going all over the world.Chinese food has been enjoyed in Western countries for a long time. To meet local people’s tastes, Chinese restaurants have made some changes to the dishes.”One example is the meat,”said Yin Hang, a Chinese student,who is studying m Australia. “We like to eat meat with the bone (骨头)in, but people here don’t. So the local Chinese restaurants provide big pieces of meat without bones, even for fish.”Some Chinese brands(品牌)are also becoming more popular. It is reported that in many cities in Europe, many stores sell TCL televisions, Haier fridges and, Lenovo computers. More than half of US-owned drones(无人机)are Chinese models, according to China Daily. They’re not only made in China, but also designed and developed in the country.In the past, most Western people thought Chinese products were cheap and unreliable. But now, things have changed greatly. More people trust Chinese brands. “Made in China”becomes cool. “They are beautiful and offer something special that American phones don’t have,”an article on CNN once said about Chinese smartphones.As it is said, Chinese government has been trying its best to improve its national brands of all kinds to meet the needs of modern life.16.According to the passage, ________.A.Chinese products are very popular around the worldB.People in Western countries don’t like Chinese foodC.All of US-owned drones are made in AmericaD.Mobike is very popular around the world17.To meet local people’s tastes Chinese restaurants ______ .A.cut the prices of the dishesB.provide big pieces of meat with bones .C.have made some changes to the dishesD.provide free water18.The following brands are Chinese except ______.A.TCL B.Samsung C.Lenovo D.Haier19.The underlined word “unreliable”probably means “______”in Chinese.A.不可信赖的B.不可回收的C.不可思议的D.不真实的20.The passage is probably from ______.A.a storybook B.a school notice C.a newspaper D.a novelYou want to know about my staying in America, right? Well, to tell you the truth, it is really an eye-opening experience study here.In China, I had English classes five times a week since the fifth grade. However, I didn’t know how different textbook English could be from everyday English until I came to a school in Connecticut. When I first studied English, I was told to say, “I am fine.”when people say “How are you ?”But in the US, I found that people say, “I am good.”or “I am tired.”One day , someone greeted me with “What’s up ?”It made me confused. I thought for a moment and then smiled because I didn’t know what to say.Since then, I have discovered more and more differences between Chinese and US cultures.To my surprise, US girls spend a lot of time in the burning sun to get a tan. However, in China, girls try every possible way to get their skin paler, or “whiter.”I also surprised by howhard-working US students are.

Most of BB King’s fans, however, may not know about his recordings for children. They only know that he writes very popular blues(布鲁斯乐曲) songs for adults.BB King, a great blues musician, recorded Rainy Day Blues for a company called Music for Little People.The company began when a man named Leib Ostrow was looking for songs for his children. He looked for them in stores and looked through books. He could not find anything that he really liked, so he decided to begin a recording company of his own. Soon he was recording music for children. Many parents thought it was a great idea. So did many recording artists.Music for Little People is located in northern California. It started as a mail-order business in 1985.Today it is one of the largest children’s musical and educational companies in the United States.根据材料内容选择最佳答案,将其标号填入题前括号内。

Americans say “screen time” when they talk about any time children spend in front of an electronic device.

And avoid using media as a way to comfort your child.λ For children two to five years of age, allow one-hour screen time on “high-quality(质量)programming” a day and watch it with your child. λ For childre n aged 6 and older, don’t spend too mu ch time using media. Also, make sure that screen time does not take the place of healthy sleep, exercising, doing homework and other activities.Make sure to have media-free time together as a family, such as dinner or driving. Also make some areas of the home media-free. Turn off you child’s electron ic devices an hour before bedtime.11.What is “screen time” accordin g to Americans?A.A kind of timing system(系统).B.A survey on electronic mediaC.Any time children spend in front of electronic media.D.Any electronic device children like to play with12.What did AAP do in 2019 after?A.They gave some practical suggestions.B.They told parents how t o reduce their children’s screen time.

Is it the written word that helps us to record information? Is it the telephone that lets us talk to people from all over the world? Is it the car that lets us travel at great speeds to meet others? Umberto Eco, an Italian writer, thinks it is something quite different. He says the most important invention might be bright in front of your eyes. He is talking about a simple pair glasses. Modern eye glasses were invented around 1000 years ago. They were more than just a convenient way to read. Before glasses, writers, scientists or teachers who could not see properly had to memorize everything. After about ten years of poor eyesight, they could not remember well enough and could not work. Glasses meant that people could work in their old age.People who wanted to remember some information could write it down and read it.

His name was Henry Ford.Henry was born in a poor family. He was the eldest of the six children. When he was a boy, he became interested in watches and machines. When he was twelve years old, his mother died. Soon he had to work in a machine shop for two dollars and fifty cents a week.In the evening, he repaired watches for another dollar a week.

They went to Beijing, Xi’an and Chengdu.In a speech at Peking University, Mrs Obama encouraged students to study abroad.“It’s not enough to get good grades in school,” she said in the speech. “It is better to travel 10,000 miles than to read 10,000 books. The experiences in other countries help make our life successful. By learning each other’s languages and by showing such curiosity (好奇) and respect (尊重) for each other’s cultures, you are building bridges of understanding and bonds of friendship,” she said. The US is the top destination (目的地) for Chinese students. More than 200,000 Chinese students are now studying in the US. In 2009, US President BarackObama announced (宣布) his goal of sending 100,000 students to China. Since then, more than 68,000 US students have come to China. What’s more, many kids in the US are now studying Chinese. “Learning Chinese is a cool thing in school. It is good for our future,” said Mason Grabowski, 14, a student from Chicago. “It is a hard language, but it is never too early to start learning it. ”16.In March, members of the Obama family visited China.A.three B.four C.five D.six17.In her speech at Peking University, Michelle Obama encouraged students to .A.get good grades at school B.study in AmericaC.study in other countries D.learn a foreign language18.Over US students have studied in China since 2009.A.two hundred thousand B.one hundred thousandC.sixty-eight thousand D.ten thousand19.The underlined word “goal” means “” in Chinese.A.目标B.进球C.梦想D.麻烦20.We can learn that from the passage.A.Michelle Obama visited four cities in ChinaB.President Obama hopes his daughters can build bridges of understanding by studying abroadC.Mason Grabowski thinks it’s too early for her to learn ChineseD.the US is the most popular destination for Chinese studentsHave you thought of such questions as “Why do I have to study math?” or “I am not interested in history at all. My dream is to be an engineer.Should I give history up?”Maybe you are right. After you leave school, it’s necessary for you to understand such things. Please remember that at school, besides getting knowledge, you should pay attention to some other important things.First, try to find what you are most interested in. At school, you study many subjects. Try to find which you like and which you don’t like. This may be helpful to you in the future. Second, maybe you don’t like math and you want to drop it. But the logical thinking ability from math can help you solve some problems. At school, youshould practice your brain by thinking. Third, you should believe in yourself. Maybe you learn English at school, but you don’t need to speak English in your daily life at all. You should think learning English can prove that you have the ability of learning languages. Suppose you go to France one day and find a job there. Then you can tell yourself, “I can do my job well. At school I learned English well, and now I must be able to learn French well, too.” But if you have no confidence, what will happen?Try to challenge yourself as often as possible. I think many of us like playing computer games. When we fail in a game, we always want to try it again. Why? Because we want to get the highest marks, though it is hard for us to get it. If we want to challenge ourselves, we must face more difficult things and make greatest progress.21.At school you should _________.A.study math harder than any other subjectB.stop learning the subjects you don’t likeC.not only get knowledge but also improve your abilityD.pay mor e attention to math22.You should not drop math because it can help improve your ________.A.ability of learning languagesB.ability of finding a jobC.interest in other subjectsD.ability of logical thinking23.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A.You’ll use everything you learn at school in the futureB.It’s not necessary to know what you like at school.C.Everything you learn at school has some influence on youD.Logical thinking ability is the most important ability24.Learning Engl ish well can help someone ________.A.have confidence in learning languagesB.go to FranceC.study in a good schoolD.get a good result in the exam.25.The last paragraph tells us that ______.A.everyone loves to play computer gamesB.it is not easy to get high marks in computer gamesC.we should do some very difficult thingsD.we should challenge ourselves.wonder of the natural worldWhen I arrived, it was early morning and it was raining. I looked to the east—the sky was becoming grey. I got out of the car, went through a gate and walked along a dark path. There was nothing to see, but I knew it was there. After about a mile, a stranger appeared beside the path. “Am I going the right way?” I asked. He knew where I wasgoing. “Yes,” he replied. “you’ll get there in five minutes.” Finally, I came to some rocks and stopped. I looked over them, but it was silent and there was no sign of it.Suddenly, the rain stopped and the clouds cleared. The sun rose behind me and shone on the rocks. Far below me, the ground fell away and down to a river. I was looking across one of the wonders of the natural world –the Grand Canyon.I looked down to the Colorado River, a silver stream nearly one mile below me. If you put the two tallest buildings in the world on top of each other at the bottom of the canyon, they still would not reach the top. Then I looked across to the other side of the canyon. It was about fifteen miles away, maybe more. Finally, I looked to my left and to my right, and on both sides the canyon went far away for more than 200 miles. The Grand Canyon was not just big. It was huge!I remained by the canyon for about half an hour, and I asked myself, “Is the Grand Canyon the greatest wonder of the natural world?” I certainly know the answer. What do you think?26.Where does the passage most probably come from?A.A magazine B.A grammar bookC.A dictionary D.A storybook27.Why was there nothing to see?A.Because there was nothingB.Because it was too darkC.Because it was rainingD.Because it was in the morning28.

山东省滕州市鲍沟中学20182019学年度周末尖子生培养九年级英语提优试题(2018年11月21日)World famous physicist(物理学家) Stephen Hawking died peacefully at his home in Cambridge on March 14th, 2019.Hawking was born in Oxford, England on January 8th, 1942. He went to school in a small city near London. As he himself admitted, he wasn’t very serious a bout studying. He did very little work, he was never top of his class. However, he still achieved good marks. After leaving school, Hawking first went to Oxford University to study physics. Then he went to Cambridge University to study cosmology(宇宙学).At the age of 21, Hawking noticed something wrong with him. He had a bad illness that stopped him from moving and talking. He couldn’t communicate except by blinking(眨眼). He sat on a wheelchair with a computer by his side. To communicate with others, he moved two fingers to control the computer’s mouse. He chose his words from the screen, which were then spoken by a voice synthesizer(音响合成器). “I’ve had the disease for most of my life,” Hawking once said, “Yet it has not stopped me from being successful at my wor k.”Although Hawking was a disabled man, he made great achievements. He received many awards and prizes for his work, including the Albert Einstein Award—the highest achievement in physics.Hawking worked at Cambridge University as a professor. His story shows that nobody, however bad their situation is, should lose hope. "Life is not fair." he once said, "You just have to do the best you can in your own situation."11.When did Stephen Hawking pass away?A. On January 8th, 1942B. On March 14th, 2019C. On March 24th, 201912.During studying in a small city near London, we know that .A. Stephen Hawking was the best student of his classB. Stephen Hawking didn’t work hard at his lessonsC. Stephen Hawking began to study cosmology13.What happened to Stephen Hawking when he was 21?A. There was something wrong with his headB. He couldn’t even blink to communicate except by moving fingersC. He could neither talk nor move14.How did Stephen Hawking communicate with others after the bad illness?A. By mouthB. By body languagesC. By a voice synthesizer15.Why was Stephen Hawking so successful at his work?A. Because he never hope in his own conditionB. Because life was not fair for himC. Because he had a bad illnessYou may know the English letters A, B and C. But do you know there are people called ABCs? You may like eating bananas. But do you know there are such people with the name of "banana persons"? Are these people from "another planet (星球)"? No. They are just Chinese people like you and me.ABC means American-born-Chinese. An ABC is a Chinese, but was born in the United States. Sometimes, people call an ABC a "banana person". A banana is yellow outside and white inside. So, a "banana person" is white inside -- thinking like a westerner and yellow outside -- looking like a Chinese.Do you know why? Usually, ABCs know little about China or Chinese language. Most of them don't speak Chinese. Also, they are not interested in Chinese politics (政治). But if ABCs can't speak Chinese. can we still call them Chinese people? Yes, of course. They are Chinese. They are overseas (海外的) Chinese. These people may be citizens (公民) of other countries like the US, Canada or Singapore. But they haveChinese blood.

However, some critics(挑剔的人) argue that creating a close relationship with coworkers and superior(上级) plays the most important part. But the defenders(保守的人) assume(认定) that the knowledge they learned at universities decide most. In my opinion, studying hard in school is the major factor(因素) for a satisfying career. To tell the truth, a good relationship with leaders is good for a promotion (提升). When they are close to the leader, they could get an information directly and quickly, and get better chances to be promoted. For instance, a roommate of mine, working in the student’s union, developed a close friendship with the chief. So when he left the union, he promoted her as the chief directly. The ability of her and her fellow workmates is almost of the same standard. With the advantage of successful relationship, she wins at last.The importance of studying hard at school is better than that of good relationship. Real skills make sure of a steady(稳定的) performance in a company. That is, only skillful employees can survive in a company. An uncle ofmine, for example, fight for his future in a company. He is really a cold man, and always serious but hard-workingat school. It is the knowledge which promise him a bright future. Bosses only desire for talented workers who will create profits(利益) for them. When it comes to cutting members, the smart people with relationship will surely be cut firstly, however men with real skills would be the last to be cut.More significantly(意味深长的), hard-working is a special feature even in a company. Hard-working is the deposit(积蓄、积累) of years, it’s a special attitude throughout one’s life. People who study hard at school are more likely to study hard in their career. When we were in a university, hard-working promised a great academic performance(学业成绩). When we are in a company, hard-working made us adapt(适应) better and faster to a new condition. In our life, hard-working get us to continue learning all the time. There is no wonder that graduates working hard at school have better performance in their career.From what have been discussed above, we may safely draw a conclusion (得出结论) that working hard in school is more important. Workers studying hard at school have better ability to solve problems. On the contrary(相反), for people depend on getting along well with others, their career seems to be unsteady.11.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the writer’s view?A.Nowadays, it is becoming more and more difficult for the graduates to get a satisfying job after leaving university.B.As long as you work hard at school, it will be easy for you to get a satisfying job after leaving university. C.Whether to find a satisfying job has much to do with a graduate’s future life.D.The knowledge a graduate learn at university can make sure of a satisfying job after leaving university.12.In fact, a good relationship with leaders is of great help to ________.A.getting a good job B.one’s career C.better performance D.promotion13.In the writer’s opinion, which of the following factors is th e most important in hunting for a job after leavinguniversity?A.Working hard at universities. B.A good relationship with leaders.C.Adapt to the new job better and faster. D.A special attitude in through out one’s life. 14.People studying hard at universities maybe ______________. People who study hard at school are more likelyto study hard in their career.A.study hard in their career B.make sure of great academic performance C.create more profits for their companies D.all the above15.What kind of graduates can solve the problems in one’s work better?A.A graduate with good relationship with others. B.A graduate with a great academic performance. C.A graduate with a good promotion. D.A graduate with a great job.Do you have a good sense of direction?If not, please take with you a compass. But if you forget to take a compass, you can still find your way during the trip.Suppose you are hiking with your family somewhere in the mountain in Dan Xia Mountain, you need to find the direction of south to find your way back. But none of your family members can read the map and actually knows where the family is. Never mind. The sun is shining and it’s still morning. If you don't know the exact time,you can still find out where south is, but you'll need to be patient.①Find a straight stick and put it in the ground in a place where you can mark its shadow.②Try to put the stick as vertically (垂直) as you can. You can check this by making a simple plumb line (铅锤线) with a piece of string (绳子) and weight. You haven't got any string? Ok, use a thread from your clothes with a button tied at the end to act as a weight.③After the stick is put vertically, you can see its shadow on the ground. Mark the end of the shadow.④Wait about half an hour and mark the end of the shadow again.⑤Keep doing this until you have made several marks.⑥The mark nearest the stick will show the shortest shadow when it is midday,because at that time the sun is highest in the sky and pointing to the exact south.⑦Pick a point in the distance along the line between the shortest shadow and the stick.⑧That point is south of where you are.⑨Now you can turn the map, like you did before, and find which way you should choose for traveling.16.To find the direction, we ought to be patient probably because .A.it is not easy to find a proper stickB.it is not easy to put the stick verticallyC.it takes hours to make the marksD.it takes hours to make a plumb line.17.The passage would probably be most helpful to .A.those who draw maps B.those who get lostC.those who make compasses D.those who likes making marks18.According to the passage, which of the following are needed to find the directionof south?①It is a fine day and the sun is shining brightly.②You are travelling with your family.③You have a straight stick, a piece of string and a button.④You mark the shadow every half an hour .⑤You check the marks on the stick.A.①③④B.①②③C.②③④D.③④⑤19.The author tells us how to find the direction of south by .A.telling an interesting story B.doing an experiment himselfC.testing an idea by reasoning D.introducing a useful method20.In which of the following columns(栏目)can you find the article?A.Family Life B.National GeographyC.Experience Sharing D.Science FictionAlthough people everywhere seem to enjoy drinking coffee,they don't all have the same coffee culture. In Europe for example, coffee shops are common places for people to meet friends while they drink coffee. On the other hand, places like this were not as common in North America in the past. Instead, people in North America liked to drink coffee in their homes with friends. The coffee culture in the USA changed, when Starbucks (星巴克) coffee shops spread throughout the country.The first Starbucks coffee shop opened in 1971 in downtown Seattle, Washington,in the USA. It was a small coffee shop that cooked its own coffee beans. The coffee shop's business did well, and by 1981 there were three Starbucks stores in Seattle.Things really began to change for the company in 1981. That year, Howard Schultz met the three men who ran Starbucks. Schultz worked in New York for a company that made kitchen equipment (设备) . He noticed that Starbucks ordered a large number of special coffee makers, which caused his great interest. Schultz went to Seattle to see what Starbucks did. In 1982, the original Starbucks owners hired Schultz as the company's head of marketing (市场营销).In 1983, Schultz traveled to Italy. The special environment of the espresso (浓咖啡) bars there caught his eyes. Back in the USA, Schultz created an environment for Starbucks coffee shops that was comfortable and casual, and customers everywhere seemed to like it. Starbucks began opening more stores in the USA. Then the company opened coffee shops in other countries as well. Today, there are more than 16,000 Starbucks coffee shops all over the world.However,that does not mean Starbucks has not had problems. In fact, many Starbucks stores have closed over the past few years. On the one hand, this is because there were too many coffee shops competing (竞争) for businessin one small area. On the other hand, stores in some countries closed because the coffee culture there did not match with the comfortable environment offered by Starbucks.21.The underlined word "ran" in Paragraph 3 probably means .A.closed B.managed C.made D.sold22.According to the passage, which is the right order for the following sentences?a.This man helped to make Starbucks a huge coffee company.b.Starbucks began as a small coffee company in Seattle in the USA.c.He went to Seattle to learn about the company and later worked for it.d.Howard Schultz found Starbucks ordered lots of special coffee makers.A. a﹣b﹣d﹣cB. c﹣a﹣b﹣dC. b﹣d﹣c﹣aD. d﹣c﹣a﹣b23.Why did so many Starbucks close in small areas?A.Because the coffee in these places was too expensiveB.Because the style of the coffee stores seems the same.C.Because people like to drink coffee at home with friendsD.Because there were too many coffee shops in one place.24.To tell us the story of Starbucks, the writer did the following except .A.introducing how Starbucks became successfulB.showing what Schultz did to help Starbucks become successfulC.telling what difficulties Starbucks facesD.telling what Starbucks did to deal with his problems25.What's the best title for the passage?A.The History of Starbucks B.The Culture of StarbucksC.The Popularity of Starbucks D.The environment of Starbucks三、根据对话内容,从方框内选择恰当的句子填入对话相应的空白处,使对话完整,合乎情景(有两个多余选项),并将所选答案填写在答题卡的相应位置。

It is said that Nian was a fierce monster. Usually it stayed deep in the mountains. But in winter, it couldn’t find enough food. So it entered villages to eat whatever it could catch. Villagers became frightened and moved away. Later the people found that Nian was afraid of three things—the red color, the bright fire and the loud noise. After learning this, they thought of how to prevent Nian from entering their villages. Thus, a tradition was established. People had couplets, lanterns and fireworks for the Spring Festival.Now most people in the countryside still keep these traditional celebrations.

They can be as important as what you will do in the future or as simple as what you will eat for breakfast. Any decision could be the turning point of your life.I made an important decision when I was in Junior 3.Before I made that decision I was one of the boys who tried too hard to act as an adult. I didn’t know that only kids want to show themselves as adults.I didn’t listen to my parents and teachers, and my grades became poor. Then came the high school entrance exam.At the turning point of my life, my mom wanted to have a conversation with me. I wanted to turn it down but when I looked at her eyes, I felt I couldn’t refuse. Instead of asking me to study hard, to my surprise, Mom just asked what I wanted to do in the future. Without thinking too much, I just said I would like to study hard. Mom smiled and asked again: “I asked: what do you WANT to do?”I never seriously thought about the question. So, I kept silent.“Whether you want to go on studying or enter the society,”she went on, “it is your own decision. Your life ought to be decided by you, not by anyone else, including me. ”After saying that, she had tears in her eyes. For the first time in my life I was asked to make my own decision. I sat in my chair and thought about myself, my life and what kind of person I wanted to become.It took me what seemed to be ages to make the biggest decision so far in my life—I wanted to be a man who makes a difference in the world. To achieve that, I needed to study hard.The path to my future became clear to me. I didn’t act rebelliously(叛逆地) any more. With passion (激情) in my heart, I studied hard.Now, I’m 17 and I’m in one of the best schools in my city, in one of the best classes at the school and I am one of the best students in the class.Thanks to that decision, I have become what I am today.11.When did the writer make the important decision?A.After he was 17 years old.

D.When he was studying in Junior 3.12.What was the writer like before the decision?A.His grades became poor.B.He tried too hard not to act as an adult.C.He was one of the top students in his class.D.He did what his teachers and his parents asked him to do.13.How did the writer make the decision?A.It was easy for him to make the decision.B.It was his second time to make the decision.C.He made the decision seriously.D.It was his mother that made the decision for him.14.Why did the writer make the decision?A.Because his teacher talked with him patiently.B.Because he didn’t want to act rebelliously any more.C.Because his mother asked him to study hard as usual.D.Because his father asked him to think about his future by himself.15.Which of the following is TRUE?A.The writer made the decision that he should work hard.B.It took the writer several years to make the decision.C.After hearing his mother’s words, the writer had tears in his eyes.D.At the turning point of his life, the writer wanted to have a conversation with his mother.One day, Tom's teacher, Miss Smith, held a class meeting. "There will be a flag day next Saturday. Does anyone want to join this meaningful event ?”asked Miss Smith. Tom was interested in raising money for homeless children, but he was not brave enough to talk to the strangers, so he kept quiet in his seat. "Tom, you haven't sold flags before, "said Miss Smith suddenly. "Would you like to have a try?" Tom was hesitant(犹豫的), but he finally nodded.On the flag day, Tom and Angela sold flags in a busy street."Excuse me. Could y-o-u pl-ea-se buy...? said Angela softly to the first person she met.The man smiled and put a five-dollar coin into Angela's collection bag. Then she said thanks and put a flag under his shoulder. "I did it! said Angela happily. "It's your turn now.”Feeling nervous, Tom began to shake. Soon, he saw a young lady walking towards him. The lady was smiling and holding a few coins in her hand. She asked, "Are you selling flags for Fund for the Homeless Children?" Tom's face became red and said yes. Then the lady made the donation(捐赠) and Tom gave her a flag. “You made it laughed Angela.In the next couple of hours, Angela and Tom sold flags quickly and bravely. At last, their collection bags were so heavy that they had to hold them with both arms. They felt very proud.16.Why did Tom keep quiet in his seat?A.He had other plans.B.He didn't like Miss Smith.C.He was not interested in the activity.D.He was not brave enough to talk to the strangers.17.When Miss Smith asked Tom to have try, he finally________.A.laughed B.nodded C.refused D.cried18.Where did Tom and Angela sell flags on the flag day?A.In a busy street.

D.Sad.They say that “travel is the best teacher”and there is no better example of this idea than the Ming dynasty travel writer and geographer Xu Xiake (1587-1641). His book The Travel Notes of Xu Xiake, not only encouraged a love of travelling among Chinese people but provided important scientific information about the country's land and geography.Born into a wealthy Jiangyin family, Xu became interested in books about different places at an early age and wanted to travel. When he was 18, however, Xu's father died and so, it seemed impossible for his travelling dreams. He now was responsible for the family farm and taking care of his 60-year-old mother as tradition required.But his mother had different ideas. Understanding her son’s love of travel and valuing the knowledge he could get from such experiences, this modern-thinking woman refused to keep her son at home. She agreed that Xu could travel for three months every year, when there was less farm work.So at the age of twenty and with his mother's support, Xu set off for the first time, leaving behind not only his mother but his new wife as well. He would repeat this goodbye each year for most of the next 30 years. During this time, he travelled throughout the Ming kingdom, carefully studying the lands he passed through and recording his experiences and many discoveries in a diary. This diary, which once had over 500,000 words, would eventually become The Travel Notes of Xu Xiake.Although rich, Xu avoided comfortable travel, preferring to go almost everywhere on foot. This way he could research the environment in detail and get a true picture of the natural world. Many of his trips were to hard-to-reach mountain areas, and through wild forests where few people lived. His willingness to face hardships came at a cost, however. Progress was slow and tiring and he was frequently sick, robbed and beaten during his journeysSadly Xu became seriously ill during his last and longest journey, a 4-year trip through the Southwest of China. He died in 1641, soon after returning to his hometown for the last time. When his diary was finally printed years after his death, much of it had been destroyed or lost. Although incomplete, it still made Xu a travelling legend around the world.21.What is the passage mainly about______.A.The general details of Xu Xiake's life storyB.The difficulties Xu Xiake faced in his travelsC.The important discoveries made by Xu XiakeD.The influence of Xu's book The Travel Notes of Xu Xiake22.Which of the following best describes Xu's mother?A.Strict but interestingB.Kind but uneducatedC.Helpful and hardworkingD.Supportive and open-minded23.Why did Xu prefer walking during his travels?A.It gave him the chance to meet different kinds of people.B.It helped him to save money and travel for a longer time.C.It allowed him to see and study the environment in detail.D.It was the only way to reach the places he was interested in.24.What is true about Xu's book The Travel Notes of Xu Xiake?A.It was only made public after Xu died.B.It made Xu very famous during his lifetime.C.It was the first travel book ever written in China.D.It was mainly about the different people of China.25.What is the correct order for the following events from Xu's life?a. He went on his first journey.b. His book was finally printed.c. He returned to his hometown for the last time.d. He developed an interest in books about other places.e. He started managing the family farm after his father died.A.a-e-d-c-bB.d-e-a-c-bC.d-e-a-b-cD.e-d-a-b-c三、补全短文7选5When Canadian Prime Minister visited China several years ago, where did he take his family? 26..Built to keep enemies from the country, the Great Wall is considered a wonder of architecture(建筑).It was first built in different parts during the Warring period.27.. In the Ming Dynasty, people built many new parts of the Great Wall that are still in good condition today.Being famous for its wonderful view, the Great Wall draws millions of tourists each year. But now the long wall is in danger. 28.. Once Xinhua reported.One reason for that is the old age of the Great Wall. Some parts are over 500 years old. Strong wind and rain has slowly destroyed (毁坏) it. 29.. Some people stole the bricks(砖) of the Great Wall and sold them for money. And some visitors vandalize (肆意毁坏) the Great Wall. On sections of the Wall that many tourists visit, like Badaling, almost every brick is marked by graffiti.Our country is making an effort to repair the Great Wall. 30.. To make sure that the Great Wall remains a great wonder, every one of us should help protect it ourselves.A.To see the Great Wall, of course.B.Another reason is that people haven't realized they have to protect it.C.But it is such a big project that it needs much time to be complete.D.The second reason is that people are educated to protect it.E.How did the Prime Minister come to China at that time?F.Later, Emperor Qin Shihuang connected these walls together into a long one.G.One third of the Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty has disappeared.四、阅读短文,在其后空白处写出各单词的正确形式,单词的第一个字母已给出。

A. not good B . not true C.not easy D. not clear10. A . grow B . have C.teach D . understand二、阅读单项选择We often find that weekends and holidays feel so short while classes and work feel so long.Actually, though, we know that this is not true. But we still wonder where that strange feelingcomes from.In fact, this is one of the ways that we’re tricked by time, according to the website All That Is Interesting. The website lists several wrong impressions we often have about time. Let’ s have a look.First of all, emotions affect our time-keeping abilities. Negative emotions, especially anxiety andboredom, make time seem longer because they make us concentrate more on the passage oftime. However, when we are enjoying ourselves, we pay more attention to what we are doing and are likely to lose track of (失掉⋯⋯的意 ) time.Here is another example. In 2007, a group of scientists carried out a test. In the test, people fell 50meters into a safety net and were then asked about their experience. Although the experiencetook shorter than 3 seconds, the people thought it was much longer than it actually was.This is because of the way our bodies reply to danger, according to the scientists. Our bodiesproduce a chemical called adrenaline (上腺素 ) when we are faced with danger. It allows us to concentrate better so that we can stay alive. As a result, we are able to remember far more details()over a short period of time, which makes it seem like time is going more slowly.Another situation when we make mistakes about time is when we take afternoon naps (午 ). Have you ever had trouble telling what time it is after a long nap? That’ s because the best amount of time for a nap is 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, you enter a new stage of sleep calledslow-wave sleep. If you wake up mid-way in this stage, it will take a while before you can correctlyperceive (感知) time again.Yes, time can be mysterious and there is no way to control it. So, perhaps the best thing to do isto make good use of every minute.11 . According to the passage, what possibly makes people feel so long ?A . weekends and holidaysB .weekends and work C.classes and workD .holidays and work12 . Which is NOT the wrong impressions that we often have about time according to the thewebsite listing?A . negative emotions C.adrenalineB .positive emotions D .scientists13 . According to the passage, in which situation do we make mistakes about time?A . We have many problems left in the test paper, but the time is up.B .We have a math test when we fall down from a high place.C.We may have trouble telling what time it is after a long nap.D. We go to school on the school bus as usual on weekdays .14 . According to the passage , what will NOT happen when we are faced with danger ?A . Our bodies will produce a chemical called adrenaline.B .We are able to feel that time seems to go more slowly.C.Adrenaline will make us concentrate better to stay alive.D. We will forget far more details over a short period of time.15 . Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage ?A . Negative emotions, especially anxiety and boredom, make time seem longer because they make us concentrate more on the passage of time.B .When we are enjoying ourselves, we pay more attention to what we are doing and we are able to feel like time is going more slowly.C.If we wake up mid-way after a long nap, it will take a while before we can correctly perceive time again.D.Time can be mysterious and there is no way to control it.So, perhaps the best thing to do is to make good use of every minute.In Disney movies, you often find a beautiful princess and a handsome prince. They fall in loveand live happily ever after. But in the new Disney animation movie Frozen (《冰雪奇缘》), things are a little bit different.There are two princesses in the movie, Elsa and Anna. They are sisters. Elsa has the magicalpowers to make ice and snow. But she doesn’ t know how to control her powers. She even hurther sister Anna once when they were young.

He tells Anna that he doesn’t really love her. He wants to marry her because he wants to control Anna’ s country.When the prince doesn’t love the princess, how could Anna find“true love ”?

It is a movie about how to find true love.B .Prince Hans loves Anna and wants to marry her. C.The two sisters don’ t get along very well. D .Elsa hurts Anna on purpose.Family traditions are special habits or customs that your family have. For example, in the familyof Bill Gates, his parents keep the tradition of reading with children. And what's the tradition inyour family?Nick, 15, EnglandOn every family member's birthday, we give him or her a surprise. Last Sunday, it was mymother's birthday. And I knew that she wanted to see a film. So I bought a ticket without tellingher first. This made her really happy.Jack, 15, CubaEvery weekend, my parents and I go to my grandparents' home.

Sometimes myparents also join us to play games.Yu Xin, 14, ChinaDuring every summer or winter holiday, we have a family trip across the country. I'm always theone who chooses where to go.

Yu Xin has visited some places EXCEPT ________.A . Xiamen B. Hangzhou C.Beijing D. Qingdao25. The three children are talking about their ________.A . school life B. birthday parties C.holiday plans D. family traditions三、补全短文 6 选 5Courtesy in EnglishCourtesy( 礼貌 ) is an art form that shows our moral character. China's history is one of acivilization( 文明 ) with a highly developed sense of etiquette(礼仪); therefore, we should speakEnglish as politely as possible when we go abroad.26 .Being polite when you ask for something is very important. Beginning your request with "MayI...?""Could I...?" is considered polite. For example, "May I have a latte". It is also politer to say“I’ll have... ” or“I’d like...” instead of“ I want...” . Because it will be considered less direct.27 .We should say“Excuse me” or“ Do you mind if I ask you something?” We should not ask our questions directly. Instead, for example, we should say "Could you tell me where therestrooms are?"28 . Local people in other communities sometimes speak really fast, so it can be hard for us tocatch all the words. In such a situation, we can say "Pardon me?" to ask them to repeat what theysaid. In my opinion, saying "Can you please repeat that? I didn't follow" is the politest way.29 . It is also important to know how to refuse someone's invitation. If we really can't make it, wecan first say "I'd like to." and then say "but l have to work late" for example. Or "I’m afraid I can't"or even "That sounds great, but ...".30 . We can use sentences like "I see what you're saying, but I think..."or "You could be right, butdon't forget that..."or even "Yes, that's true, but I'm not sure that...".These are great ways toexpress disagreement politely by being less direct.A . Refusing an invitation.B ."Please" and "thank you" go along way when we speak to each other.C.Asking for help.D. Ordering meals.E.Expressing disagreement.F. Can't catch what's been said?四、依据句子意思,用所给单词的适合形式填空,或在横线上填入一个适合的词,使短文语义通畅,语法完好。
