江苏省无锡市各地2019届九年级上学期12月英语月考试卷精选汇编:任务型阅读
任务型阅读惠山区七.阅读填空: 先通读短文,在短文后表格中的空格内填入适当的单词(共5分)You probably know you should say “please” and “thank you” at restaurants. You probably know the rules of a library. You know you should respect and be nice to your classmates. But do you have music manners?Keep It Down! You have to notice the volume of your music. You should not play your music so loud that everyone around you can hear it. Some people might even get angry. Usually, when you play the music loud on an MP3 player, other people can’t hear th e words of the song. They just hear a loud sound. No one wants to listen to this. Very loud music can also be bad for your ears, so even if you are alone when listening to your MP3 player, you shouldn’t have it turned up too high.Take Them Off! You need to know when to turn your MP3 player off and put it away. Libraries and schools don’t allow MP3 players. There are other places, like museums, which don’t have rules, but it would be rude to have your MP3 player on. Why would you listen to music at a play, a movie or a sporting event? You would miss what is going on and others would wonder why you even came.Take One Out!Once in a while it’s OK just to take out one earphone and not the other. Imagine you are listening on your MP3 player when someone asks you the way. It would not be disrespectful to take out one earphone, tell him the way, and put back the earphone and continue listening. You can also do this when you order food at a fast-food restaurant or when you answer the telephone and it’s not f or you.It’s Y our Choice! There are times when you need to decide what is best. For example, some people can listen to music on their MP3 players when reading books, while others think it is unpleasant. In cases like this, you need to do what seems right for you.1.______ ___2._________3._________4._________5._________七、任务型阅读(本大题共5分,每小题1分)1.

During the crowded holiday shopping, keep an eye on your bags and pockets and always pay attention to what's going on around you.B e careful of unsafe Wi-Fi networks. If you use a free network in the coffee shop, other users on the network can get what you see and what you send. Then, most of your personal information will be caught by others. Experts suggest using a virtual private network (VPN) instead of the public networks and try to change the settings on your mobile device so it can't connect to nearby public Wi-Fi without your permission(许可).Please think carefully about providing your information. Mobile shopping Apps are convenient, but they can store your name, address, phone number, email, and other personal information. Look for Apps that can clearly show you about how they keep your data safe. Never provide secret information tied to your identity, like your Social Security number or bank account number.Don't send cash carelessly . If someone asks you to send money right now for a deal that seems too good to be true, or saying you get an award but need to send them some money to receive it.

Garrison nodded,hoping Pa wouldn't say that he was too old to be fooling around with pencils and paper."When I was ten,I wanted to work on my father's ship," Pa said,"When Thomas was ten,he asked me to let him plant the corn."Garrison's throat (嗓子)tightened."I know I'm not like either of you." Pa looked at the drawing again."No,you are like both of us.You work hard,like Thomas.And you're like me,too.I have wandering feet,but you have a wandering mind.We need to see things differently.Garrison frowned."I'd rather love the land,like Thomas,or the sea…"Pa patted his hand."Thomas cares about our family very much-that's why he's worked so hard to bring us food.And my love for the sea makes good money.But there's more in life than food and money.There's happiness,for one.Does it make you happy to draw?"Garrison nodded."And it makes me happy to look at your drawings.Not many folks can catch happiness on a piece of paper.Some might say drawing's a waste of time,but they don't understand how things are.Why,asking you to stop drawing like asking Thomas to stop farming,or me to stop going to sea.It would be like asking us to stop breathing,wouldn't it?"Garrison considered this,then replied,"No,sir.Not quite like breathing.If I couldn't draw any more,it would be…like someone took away my voice." He hung his head.In his mind he could hear Thomas laughing,"It's not like you ever speak up,anyway."But Pa patted his shoulder and said,"That would be a pure shame.Your voice is important,Garrison,whether it's out loud or on paper.And speaking of paper…" Pa smiled."Take a look in my bag." Garrison reached into the bag and found a sketchbook.For a moment he was speechless happiness seemed to fill his body and stick in his throat.Then he managed to find his voice."Oh,Pa-thank you." 31.Why did Garrison's throat tighten?A.Because he felt thirsty.B.Because he felt very scared.C.Because he knew he was not like Pa or Thomas.D.Because he thought Pa would stop him drawing.32.When Garrison frowned,he most probably felt .A.unhappy B.worried C.afraid D.ashamed33.What can we infer from the passage about Garrison?A.He lived in a big wealthy family.B.He was his father's favourite son.C.He would go on with his drawing.D.He would learn to work on the farm.DIn 1845,a deadly disease struck the farms of Ireland,killing all the Lumper potato plants.In another place or time,the death of single crop species (物种)might not have been so important.But in Ireland,in 1845,people depended almost solely on the patato for food.The death of one species caused a terrible famine(饥荒).Now,some scientists are worried that such a famine could happen again,but on a much wider scale.Over the centuries,farmers have discovered thousands of different species of food crops.Each species has special qualities.Some can be grown in very hot or cold climates.Others are not affected by certain diseases.However,you won't find many of these species in your local supermarket.To feed the seven billion people on Earth,most farmers today are growing only species of plants and farming only species of animals that are easy to produce in large numbers.For example,in the Philippines,there were once thousands of varieties of rice:now fewer than 100 are grown there.In China,90 percent of the wheat varieties grown just a century ago have disappeared.Scientists believe that over the past century,we have allowed more than half of the world's food varieties to disappear.One solution to this problem is to collect and store the seeds (种子)as many different plant varieties as we can before they disappear.The idea was first suggested by Russian scientist Nikolay Vavilov.In the 1920s and 1930s,he collected around 400,000 seeds from five contients.More recently,others are continuing the work he began.In the U.S.state of Iowa,Diane Ott Whealy wanted to protect historicplant varieties,like the seeds her great -grandfather brought to theU.S.from Germany more than a hundred years ago.She and her husbandstarted a place called Heritage Farm,where people can store and trade seeds.More importantly,the people at Heritage Farm don't just store the seeds;they plant them.By doing this,they are reintroducing foods into the marketplace that haven't been grown for years.These food species are not just special in terms of appearance or taste.They also offer farmers food solutions for the future,from the past.34.What is this passage mainly about?A.The need to protect different food species.B.How to increase the number of food species.C.The fact that many food species are dying out.D.How to prevent food species from disappearing.35.Why are some scientists worried that such a famine could happen again?A.Because people depend on certain species of food crops.B.Because the same deadly disease may attack crops again.C.Because the world's population is larger than that in 1845.D.Because farmers grow the same potatoes as those in the past.36.The following sentence would best be placed at the end of .Meanwhile,thousands of other species are dying out.A.Paragraph 1 B.Paragraph 2 C.Paragraph 3 D.Paragraph 437.What can we learn from the passage?A.The disease spread very quickly and killed thousands of people in Ireland.B.Around 80 percent of the rice varieties in the Philippines have disappeared.C.People have been storing seeds to save plane varieties for less than 100 years.D.Heritage Farm is the first place in the U.S.for people to store and trade seeds.第Ⅱ卷(主观题共40分)四、词汇运用(本大题共8小题,每小题1分,共8分)(A)根据句意和汉语注释,在答题卡对应题号的横线上,写出单词的正确形式.38.Don't worry.The storm won't (持续)long.39.I've had a lone (累人的)day.I need a good rest.40.Please put all the books back in the right (顺序)before you leave.41.This is not the first time for the two teams to play (对抗)each other.(B)根据句意,在答题卡对应题号的横线上,写出括号内所给单词的适当形式.42.You told me you had (deal)with these letters.Why are they still here?43.The mother said goodbye with a smile,but her eyes couldn't hide her (sad).44.Look at you!

It seems to be strange to you there is a blind spot on the eyes. Here is an interesting experiment that canmake something disappear, when one eye is open.Make a card about the size of a postcard and write two English letters L and R on it, L on the left and Ron the right. First, hold the card about 80 cm away and you see both the letters. Then close your right eye andlook at the letter R only with your left eye. And now,as you move the card slowly towards you, you’ll find the letter L disappearing. But if you move the card nearer to your face, the letter will be seen again. Now do thesame experiment with your left eye closed, you’ll find the letter R disappearing.Why does the letter disappear? It is because there is a blind spot on the eye. When the image (影像) of the letter falls on the blind spot, it won’t be seen.

Alan was allowed to sit up in his bed and his bed was next to the room’s only window. Henry hadto spend all his time flat on his back.The men talked for hours, of their wives, families, their homes and their jobs. And every afternoon when Alan, inthe bed next to the window, could sit up, he would pass the time by describing to his roommate all the things he could see. Ducks and swans played on the water whilechildren sailed their model boats. Lovers walked arm in arm among flowers. Trees and skyline could be seen in the distance. As he described all this, Henry, on the otherside of the room, would close his eyes and imagine the scene.One warm afternoon Alan described a parade passing by. Although Henry could not hear the band, he could see itin his mind. Unexpectedly, a strange though t entered his head: W hy should he have all the pleasure of seeing everything while I never got to see anything? It doesn’t seem fair. Henry felt ashamed at first. But as the days passed and he missed seeing more sight, his envy grew and soon let him down. He began to find himself unable to sleep. He should be by that window ---and that thought now controlled his life.Late one night, as he lay look ing at the top of the room . Alan began to cough. He was choking (窒息的) . Henry watched in the d ark room as the struggling man tried hard to reach for the button to call for help. Listening fromacross the room, he never moved, never pushed his ownbutton which would have brought the nurse running. In less than five minutes, the coughing and choking stopped, along with the sound of breathing. Now, there was only silence---deathly silence.As soon as it seemed suitable , Henry asked if he could be moved next to the window. The nurse was happy to make the switch (交换) and after making sure he was comfortable,she left him alone.Slowly, painfully, he struggled to take his first look. Finally, he wouldhave the joy of seeing it all himself. He looked out, but faced a black wall.1.What finally happened to Alan?A. He was moved to another room.B. He died.C. He switched his bed with Henry.D. He was very sick.2. Henry, who had his bed switched, had expected _______.A. to see the blank wallB. to feel the joy of seeing the outside worldC. to feel the joy of breathing fresh airD. to see more than Alan3. Which of following words could be used to describe Alan?A. Kind-hearted and imaginative.B. Inactive and humorous.C. Impatient and funny.D. Cold-hearted and selfish.20. A situation in which a student is troubled by his parents ask ing him to go into a job area that makesgood money but he doesn’t want to go into, is a bad situation. The question is whether he should go into this job or not.To start with, you need to go for what is best for YOU , even if there would be some negative (消极的)result s. You can’t be happy if you don ’ t make decisions thatare right for you. If you do not make your own decisions and make decisions that will be good for you, your life would be a big lie to yourself , which is not a signthat you have done something you wanted to do.Living a lie would not be a very good life. The truthis much better than living a lie. If your whole life isa lie, then it is not a very beautiful life at all. In the song Lyin’ Eyes, the woman is living a lie by pretending (假装) she loves the old man, while in reality she was just in it for money. As a result, her life is miserable (悲惨的) and a big lie.A nd finally, m oney cannot buy happiness. A good exampleof this is also from the song Lyin’ Eyes. The onlyreason why the woman married the old man was for the money and gifts she would receive. This results in herlife are not happy at all. This just goes to show that no matter how much money you have, your life still might not be happy. It takes a lot more than a bunch ofgreen paper to make your life a good one.In conclusion, doing what you want is best. If you don’t do what you want to, you won’t be happy with your life.1.What is the passage mainly about?A. Parents should not ask their children to live a lie.B. There is something more important than money in life.C. Young people should make their own career decisions.D. Young people are happy to make their own decisions.2. The underlined part a bunch of green paper in Paragraph 4 refers to(指)_______.A. gifts ______________B. dreamsC. imagination___________D. money3. Which of the following arguments is NOT used to support the w riter’s conclusion?A. It’s best to do what you want.B. You need to make your own decisions.C. Money doesn’t mean happiness.D. Living a lie would not be good.四、单词拼写21. 单词拼写1. what a __________(令人愉快的) place!

We see with our eyes and taste with our tongues. Ears are for hearing,skin is for feeling and noses are for smelling. Would anyone say that ears can smell, or that tongues can see? Actually, yes. Paul Bach-y-Rita, a scientistat the University of Wisconsin, believes that the senses can changeable. For example, a tongue can be used for seeing. The brain, as we know, is a complex organ(复杂的器官). Even when part of it is hurt, it will try to carry out thesame function by sending the function to another area of the brain.A college student was asked to take part in an experiment. In the experiment, his eyes were covered with a smallvideo camera. The camera was connected to a long plasticline which went into his mouth. A computer would changethe video’s picture.

A team of US psychologists(心理学家) have found that talking to another person for ten minutes a day helps with memory.“Socializing(交际) is just as effective as more traditional kinds of mental exercise in boosting memory andintellectual(智力的) performance,” Oscar Ybarra, a psychologistat the University of Michigan Institute for Social Research, said in a statement.In one investigation, they analyzed data on 3610 people,aged 24 to 96.They found that the higher their level of socialinteraction(交流), the better their cognitive(认知的) functioning. Social interaction includes getting together or having phonechats with relatives, friends and neighbors.In another experiment, the researchers conducted laboratorytests on 76 college students, aged 18 to 21, toevaluate(评估) how social interactions and intellectual exercises affected the results of memory and mental performance tests.The students were divided into three groups: the social interaction group had a discussion of a social issue for10 minutes before taking the tests; the intellectualactivities group completed three tasks (including a reading comprehension exercise and a crossword puzzle) before the tests; and a control group(对照组) watched a 10-minute clip(电影片段) of the Seinfeld television show.“We found that short-term social interaction lasting forjust 10 minutes improved participants’ (参与者) intellectual performance as much as engaging in (从事) so-called‘intellectual’ activities for the same amount of time,” Ybarra said.The study was expected to be published in the February issue of the journal Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin.1.What does the underlined word “ boosting ” in the second paragraph probably mean?A.
