精品解析:上海市华东师范大学第二附属中学2023-2024学年九年级下学期3月月考英语试题(解析版)
ed toB.preferredC.got used toD.would rather
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:虽然花了很长时间,但我们终于习惯了和村里其他人一样早起。
考查动词短语辨析。used to过去常常,常用used to do sth的结构;preferred更喜爱,常用prefer to do的结构;got used to习惯于,常用get used to doing sth的结构;would rather宁愿,常用would rather do sth的结构。根据“Although it took a long time, we finally...getting up as early as everyone else in the village.”可知,很长时间后习惯了早起,故选C。
2.Once upon a time there was _______ old man who had _______ one-year-old grandchild.
A.an; aB.an; anC.a; aD.the; the
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:从前有一位老人,他有一个一岁大的孙子。
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:这些机器人也可以帮助医生给病人动手术。
考查动词不定式作宾语补足语。operate做手术,动词原形;be operated动手术,被动语态;operate on给(某人)动手术;operate to表示给人动手术时,用介词on,不用to。根据“patients”可知此处用动词短语operate on sb表示“给某人动手术”。故选C。
考查动词短语和感官动词。looks看起来;taste尝起来;looks like看起来像;taste like尝起来像。根据“chocolate ice cream”可知,第一空指看起来像巧克力冰淇淋,用looks like;再根据“sweet”为形容词可知,第二空应用感官动词taste,表示“尝起来是甜的”。故选B。

Crowd crush isn’t something new. How can we stay safe in large crowds?1. Dressproperly Choose a pair of comfortable shoes. Make sure they won’t fall off or cause you to trip when you run.2. Look around and know when to leave This maybe the most important step. Once the number of people reaches 6 people per square meter (每平方米) or more, it becomes very dangerous and you may not be able to get out easily. Leave right now if you find there are too many people in the place.3.Stay at the edge (边缘) of a crowd Staying at the edge of a crowd allows you to get away more quickly. However, if you find yourself in the middle of a dangerous crowd, there is something to remember:★Go with the crowd, not against itMove with the crowd; fighting against it might make you fall.★Keep standing and do not fallWhatever you do, do not go down to the ground. Once you fall down, people will fall on you. You won’t be able to get back up.★Lie on your left side if you fallIf you fall down, try to lie on your left side to protect your heart and lungs (肺).

If foreigners visit a Chinese family, they would be surprised at the warmth that they would receiveas guests.When you visit a Chinese family, the host usually makes tea for you. Then he will serve you snacks like biscuits or candy.Someone in the family will also chat with you, never letting you feel lonely.At the same time, other family members will prepare a meal for you. Chinese people treat their guests with a big meal. They always present more food than the guest can eat. At table, guests are supposed to start eating first.Perhaps one of the things that surprises a Western guest most is that the Chinese host likes to pick up food for visitors, which won’t happen at Western tables. The Chinese family go out of their way to make you feel at home. As you are done eating, the host usually says, “It seems that you didn’t eat much.Please have more.”Being warm and hospitable has long been an important part of Chinese culture and tradition. As Confucius said thousands of years ago: To meet friends from farHow happy we are!1. Which of the following is true according to thepassage?A. Chinese people are more hospitable than the other peoples.B. Foreigners would be surprised when eating Chinese food.C. Chinese people like having meals as guests with foreigners.D. Foreigners will be treated warmly when visiting a Chinese family.A. at homeB.lonelyC. tiredD. at a loss3. Why are guests supposed to start eating first?A.Because they are hungrier than the host.B.Because it’s one of the Chinese table manners.C.Because the host is busy preparing the meal.D.Because it’s one of the Western table manners.4. What does the passage mainly talk about?A.What Confucius said thousands of years ago.B.What foreigners should do in a Chinese family.C.Chinese people are warm and hospitable.D.The differences between Chinese table manners and Western table manners.BIf we are asked exactly what we were doing a year ago, we should probably have to say that we could not remember. But if we had kept a book and had written it in an account(陈述) of what we did each day, we should be able to give an answer to the question.It is the same in history. Many things have been forgotten because we don’t have written account of them. Sometimes men did keep a recordof the important happenings in their country, but it was often destroyed by fire or in a war. Sometimes there was never any written record at all because the people of that time and place did not know how to write. For example, we know a great deal about the people who lived in China 4,000 years ago, because they could write and leave written records for those who lived after them. But we know almost nothing about the people who lived even 200 years ago in central Africa because they had not learnt to write.Sometimes, even if the people cannot write, they may know something of the past. They have heard about it from older people and often songs and dances and stories have been made about the most important happenings, and those have been sung and acted and told for many generations(代), for most people are proud to tell what their fathers did in the past. This we may call“remembered history”. Some of it has been written history because words are much more easily changed when used again and again in speech than when copied in writing. But where there are no written records, such spoken stories are often helpful.5.Which of thefollowing ideas is NOT included in the passage?A. “Remembered history” is less reliable than written history.B. Written records of the past play an important role in our learning of the human history.C. A written account of our daily activities helps us to be able to answer many questions.D. If there are no written records, there is no history.6. We know very little about the central Africa 200 yearsago because ________.A. there was nothing worth writing down at that timeB. the people there paid no attention to the importance of keeping a recordC. the written records were perhaps destroyed by fireD. the people there did not know how to write7. “Rememberedhistory” is considered as valuable only when ________.A. it is written downB. there is no written accountC. it proves to be rightD. people are interested in it8. The passage suggests that we could have learned much more about our past than we do now if the ancient people had ________.A.kept a record of every past eventB.not burnt their written records in warsC.told the exact stories of the most important happeningsD.made more songs and dancesCIn early November of 1503, during Christopher Columbus’ fourth and final trip to America, his ship was seriously damaged in a storm.Columbus and his men had to live on a small island for several months while they tried to repair their ship and return to Spain.At first, the local people on the island were very kind to the European visitors, giving them all the food and clothes they needed to survive. However, as the months passed, the local people became more and more unhappy with their guests,who were tricking and stealing from them. Finally the locals decided to stop helping.Without food or any way to leave the island, Columbus’ group was soon in serious trouble.Luckily for Columbus, he had a book about the stars and planets on his ship. It described the movements of all the objects in the night sky. The book, written by a well-known German scientist, said there would be a total lunar eclipse on the evening of February 29, 1504 and how long it would last.Columbus worked out the difference in time between Germany and North America. He then had a meeting with the local leaders just before the eclipse would take place. In this meeting, Columbus told them his god was angry because the local people were no longer giving food. So his god would take away the moon to punish them. At the moment Columbus finished talking, just as he had planned, the moon began disappearing.The local leaders grew frightened and quickly agreed to provide Columbus with food and anything else he wanted. But first, Columbus’god had to return the moon.Columbus told them he would have to discuss the idea with his god on his ship.Knowing the moon would stay completely hidden for about 48 minutes, Columbus returned just before the moon began to reappear. From that day on, until they finally left, Columbus and his men no longer had any trouble getting the food they needed.9. At first, the local people helped Columbus and his menby__________.A.giving them foodB. building ahouse for themC.repairing their shipD. providingthem with a book10. The local people became angry because the Europeans__________.A.looked very differentB. hadnothing to tradeC. were cheats and thievesD. wanted totake their land11. What did Columbus do after returning to his ship on the night of the meeting?A. He discussed the problem with his god.B. He waited for the eclipse to finish.C. He read about the stars and planets.D. He told his men what happened.12. What can we learn about the Europeans from the passage?A. They all believed in god.B. They never returned to Spain.C. They admired the local people.D. They caused their own problems.四、词汇根据括号中所给的汉语提示写出单词,每空一词.1. They had built ______________(暸望塔)to protect the village from robbers.2. It is a suitable ____________(地点)for a new school.3.

They also said that their grandfather paid much attention to their English and math studies.Yuan Longping loved playing the violin, swimming and driving. What's more, he had a special habit—playing Mahjong(麻将) with friends for an hour every evening to train his brain.

It starts with voices in the yard. When I come out to check on Daniel, his face is pressed on the fence.The woman says, “You wait right here, I’ll be right back.”She return s with a saw (锯子). There’s a whirring. A circle in the wooden fence drops out of sight.“Dad! Sandy just drilled out a hole in the fence. So Sandy and me can talk!” Daniel spins around.I hadn’t known her name was Sandy. We’ve lived here a month before Daniel was born.Daniel’s and Sandy’s murmuring voices continue. Whenever Daniel is outside, he circles near the fence that isn’t a fence any more. Some days my son just goes to stand at the hole, yelling,“Sandy! Saaaaandyyyyy!” Sometimes I hear bits of their talk.“We painted a ghost at school.”Or: “Wheeler and Jackson were playing football, and they told me. I couldn’t play.”“That wasn’t very nice,” says Sandy. “Did that hurt your feelings? Did you let them know that?”I can’t hear how he replies. A moment of envy runs through me. He never talks about his school things with me.Daniel and Sandy not only keep chatting through the hole, they also exchange gifts. A coloring book, then a Hot Wheels car. It’s unclear what Daniel gives Sandy in return.One afternoon, I hear Sandy’s voice floating over the top of the fence with the hole. “I thought maybe Daniel could come for a play date.”We ring the bell on Sandy’s porch. She’s a middle-aged woman with smilin g eyes. Sandy’s yard is sweet with the smell of flowers. We have a pleasant afternoon with Sandy, my son’s adult friend, the first friend Daniel has made on his own. ________A month later, Sandy leaves to care for her mother in Kansas. She left behind a box of presents: a coloring book, sidewalk chalk, the missing orange part in the Hot Wheels track. When I look at Daniel, he’s looking down at his shoes.He sometimes wanders down to the fence. Instead of calling “Sandy! Saaaaandyyyyy!” he cries. “Hello!

D.He does not want to be Sandy’s friend any more.37. What’s the main theme of the story?A.Parents are children’s best friends.B.Trust and friendship can go beyond ages.C.A good fence makes a good neighbour. D.Grass is greener on the other side of thefence.①It’s known that green tea is a symbol of Chinese culture. Also, it helps to improve health in so many ways that some people think of it as a kind of medicine. Perhaps that is why the Chinese have been using it for more than 4,000 years to treat all kinds of medical problems. Today, scientists know that there are catechin, caffeine, vitamin C and theanine in green tea that are good for health.②Catechin is helpful for lowering (降低) cancer (癌症) risk. It protects the body from cancer-causing substances (物质) and slows the growth of cancer. Besides fighting cancer, catechin prevents serious health problems like heart disease.③Caffeine causes the heart to beat faster. That’s why it was once thought that caffeine was not very healthy, but studies suggest that there are also good reasons for drinking caffeine. Specifically, caffeine has to do with a lower risk for Parkinson’s disease and l iver (肝脏) disease. Yet, caffeine also has some weaknesses. It can influence sleep and make people nervous, so experts advise teenagers not to have more than 100 ml of caffeine a day. This is about the caffeine of a small cup of coffee.④Vitamin C is something that the human body cannot make enough by itself. So we have to get it through food and drink. The vitamin may play a role in improving physical conditions to colds and the flu. Also, it helps people to get well more quickly from those illnesses.⑤Theanine is another healthy substance found in tea. It has been shown to lower stress, both mental and physical, and increase mind abilities. It is also used for preventing some brain diseases.⑥As you can see, green tea has many good values. Drinking it may help you stay healthy. Of course, as with any healthy substance, it is important to check if there are any bad influence as well.38. Why have the Chinese been using tea for over 4,000 years according to the passage?A.Because it’s delicious for us to dri nk. B.Because it helps to deal with illnesses.C.Because it’s a symbol of Chinese culture.D.Because it’s made into different drinks. 39. Why is caffeine in green tea good for our health?A.It lowers cancer risk. B.It makes the heart to beat faster.C.It lowers liver disease risk. D.It makes people less stressed.40. What does the writer mainly want to tell us?A.Tea can take the place of medicine. B.We should drink as much tea as possible.C.Tea has some bad influence on our health. D.Drinking tea may help people to stay in health.41. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?A.B.C.D.When someone has a sharply different viewpoint from our own, we naturally choose two common ways, either avoiding a conversation with that person or trying to convince (说服) them they are wrong. Research shows there is another way: using receptive (接纳性的) language, showing that we are truly interested in a new point of view.Many of us try to avoid disputed (有争议的) discussions. We prefer to talk with someone with similar opinions. This happens because we usually think that talking to someone who has disagreements will be more unpleasant than it actually is. When we do have to talk with people holding different views, we typically try to convince them to give up their belief because we think we are right and try to “win” the argument. And the other side is likely to think the same way, which leads to even more difficult problems to walk through.A more effective method is being conversationally receptive. Research shows that when we appear receptive to others’ different views, our arguments sound more convincing. Receptive language can also make those with whom we disagree more receptive in return. It makes us more likable, and others more interested in partnering with us.Researchers suggested three tips that can help us improve conversational receptiveness in even the most heated disagreements.Recognize the other person’s point of view. Say “I understand that…or”, “I believe what you’re sayin g is…” to show that you take an active part in the conversation and find value and even trust in their points.Hedge your statements. When we talk, we usually hold the opinion that we should be strong and confident and express our views in a direct, forceful way. But if we show that we are not so sure about our belief, our views will be better received.Express your arguments in an acceptable way. You might say, “Let’s consider the possible benefits of having fewer people working on the project “rather than”, “We should not add more people to the project.” The second sentence sounds unpleasant, showing that the speaker is not open to the possibility of further discussion.By following these tips in our communication, we’ll be more likely to have an effective conversation and bridge the differences.42. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?A.Why people dislike those with different opinions.B.How people convince others to give up their belief.C.How people communicate to deal with difficult problems.D.Why people use two common ways when facing disagreements.43. According to the passage, what can being conversationally receptive lead to?A.Effective communication. B.Creative statements.C.Increased confidence. D.Divided opinions.44. What does the words “Hedge your statements” in Paragraph 6 probably mean?A.Explain your reasons clearly. B.Raise your questions politely.C.Voice your ideas less forcefully. D.Express your excuses more directly.45. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?A.To stress the importance of productive communication.B.To introduce a better way to deal with disagreements.C.To explain the reasons for using receptive language.D.To provide three effective tips to win an argument.下面文章中共有5处(第1-5题)需要添加小标题。

People from different cultures may have differentanswers: shaking hands, nodding, kissing...But have you ever wondered how animals “say hello” to others?We know how similar chimpanzees (黑猩猩) are to humans. It’s no surprise that their greetings are also close to ours. Chimpanzees usually greet each other with a hand touch, a hug or sometimes a kiss. Some of them can also communicate through simple sign language (手语).Some animals seldom make loud sounds, for example, giraffes. Male giraffes often use their necks to greet each other. Their necks can reach up to two meters. When two giraffes meet, they may “shake” their necks and rub (摩擦) them against each other. This is to feel how strong and tall the other is.Dolphins greet one another with whistles (哨叫声). They can hear other dolphins from many kilometers away. Every dolphin has a different whistle. It tells information about the dolphin, such as its age and health. When two groups of dolphins meet, they each choose a member of the other group to “talk” to. The two groups can then join up and travel together. 5.According to the text, chimpanzees may greet each other ________.A.by saying “hello”B.by touching handsC.through a real language D.through a simple sound6.What can we know about giraffes?A.Giraffes often communicate mainly through loud sounds.B.Giraffes greet each other by rubbing their noses together.C.When a male giraffe runs into another one, they use necks to hit each other.D.Giraffes learn about the strength and height of each other through greeting. 7.When two groups of dolphins meet, they ________.A.use their tails to greet each other B.compete to decide the new leaderC.each select a member of the other group to “talk” to D.avoid talking to any members of the other group8.How is the text organized?(① = Paragraph 1, ① = Paragraph 2, ...)A.B.C.D.DeWitt Boyd is a loving father in Georgia, U.S.A.When his children were young, he played pebble (鹅卵石) house game with them. They used pebbles to make little houses in their yard. The father started out making pebble houses for his children, but it grew into a longtime hobby of his own.In 2007, DeWitt retired from his job and had more free time. This creative man wanted to take his hobby to the next level. He bought a large area of grass and decided to create a rock garden there.DeWitt worked with his wife to build the “Pebble Village”. It has all kinds of buildings and different vehicles (交通工具) that travel on land. The most amazing works are the replicas (复制品) of some places of interest, such as the Roman Colosseum (罗马斗兽场) and Notre-Dame de Paris (巴黎圣母院). They spent a long time building each piece. The replica of Notre-Dame de Paris, for example, took them about 27 months to complete.After DeWitt and his wife had built over 50 pebble houses and castles, they opened this rock garden to the public for free. Now, many visitors come from near and far to view its beauty. People can even book the garden for their weddings!9.DeWitt Boyd started building pebble houses ________.A.to invite more visitors to his yard B.to bring pleasure to his childrenC.as a new hobby after he had retired D.as a hobby for him and his wife 10.DeWitt and his wife’s works may include the following things except for ________.A.houses B.apartments C.trains D.boats 11.According to the text, which of the following statements is true?A.DeWitt retired from his job not long ago.B.Some people have held weddings in the fantastic rock garden.C.People need to pay to visit the rock garden.D.It took 27 months to build the replica of the Roman Colosseum.12.What’s the main idea of the text?A.The general introduction of the rock garden.B.The amazing advantage of the rock garden.C.The rapid development of the rock garden.D.The serious challenge of the rock garden.In 2016, Agent, a British company, tested five-hour working days for a month. The hope was that the people in the company would feel happier with reduced working hours. However, the results of the experiment were mixed.“Lots of good things happened,” says Agent CEO Paul Corcoran. “We looked at tasks in terms of time: Do this in 15 minutes and that in half an hour. We wasted no time. People were missing the worst of the traffic because they were coming in at 10 a. m. instead of 8:30 a. m.”Problems, however, quickly came up. “People used to have eight hours to finish their jobs. Now, they only had five hours,” Corcoran explains. “The idea was to give people more freedom, but they ended up feeling more stressed.”In most companies around the world, an employee works for eight hours every workday. But many researchers have looked at the links between working hours and productivity (生产效率). They found that most people could only be productive for five hours each day.Some companies have been experimenting with shorter working days. In these companies, people work from 8 a. m. to 1 p. m. with no breaks. In order to have the afternoons to themselves, they become much more focused than before. Their productivity increases by 50 percent.But just like Corcoran, many managers have seen problems with reduced working hours. In addition to the added pressure to complete tasks on time, people are losing something on the relationship level. Since they no longer have time for small talk, it has been harmful for team culture.It’s hard to say how long the perfect working day should be. Reduced working hours sound great, but having to do more work in less time is tiring. Which would you prefer, five-hour working days or traditional eight-hour ones?13.When Agent decided to test five-hour working days, it expected ________ results.A.encouraging B.mixed C.lasting D.harmful 14.What problem did people in Agent face when the company tested five-hour working days?A.They had much more work to do.B.They suffered from the worst traffic.C.They had to spend more time communicating with each other.D.They were under more pressure to complete their jobs on time.15.The underlined word “employee” probably means ________ in Paragraph 4.A.a person who receives a reward from a company B.a person who does a research for a companyC.a person who is asked to learn from a company D.a person who is paid to work for a company16.What is the writer’s attitude towards “reduced working hours”?A.Supportive.B.Negative.C.Neutral (中立的).D.Uninterested.For thousands of years, humans have been looking up at the night sky. 17 Today, we know about the orbits (轨道) of stars. You may also have heard about the “unlucky” moment of the stars—retrograde (逆行).What is retrograde? 18 All the planets in our solar system (太阳系) travel around Sun. From Earth, we can find out the orbits of the other planets. Usually, they appear to move in the same direction. If you record their orbits night after night, however, you’ll find that they sometimes seem to go backwards in their orbits. This is called retrograde.Why are the planets going backwards?19 Those closest to Sun travels faster than those farther out. When a planet completes its orbit once, a year has passed on that planet. For example, one year is 88 Earth days on Mercury (水星) and 687 on Mars (火星).For this reason, some planets will lap (领先一圈或数圈) others from time to time. Those faster-moving planets will pass their slower-moving neighbors. Mercury, for example, laps Earth about three times a year. And Earth laps Mars every two years.When the Earth and another planet pass each other, an optical illusion (视错觉) is created. From Earth, it looks like that the other planet changes direction. 20 What else about space are you interested in? Let’s learn more about our stars and the sky!A.It has to do with the way the planets move.B.The planets seem tired of their same old orbits.C.In doing so, we have made many interesting discoveries.D.All the planets in our solar system travel at different speeds.E.However, in fact, both planets are still moving on the same orbit.二、完形填空阅读短文,理解其大意,从A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

Yes, age is very sensitive subject to many Americans, especially to women over age 30. In this youth upheld culture, the thought of growing older is a painful one and most of us, if possible, would like to have nothing to do with it. So many Americans work hard to _____21_____ a youthful appearance. The _____22_____ thingthey want to be asked is the unthinkable, “How old are you exactly?”Weight. This is one of the touchiest subjects. In America, it is okay, even _____23_____, to be thin but it is a sin and a huge _____24_____ to be overweight. In fact, the thinner you are, the prettier you are considered. Looking through any American fashion magazines, you’ll notice that most models are nothing more than skin and bones. Believer it or not, the tall and thin look was the hottest look of the 1990s.Americans very much mind their weight and _____25_____ disclose how much they weigh, even if they are thin and in great shape. Therefore, you’d best not to ask. But if you _____26_____ have to comment on this subject, it’s always safe to say, “Oh, you look like you have lost weight” than “Oh, you look like you put on few pounds”. However, if you would like to be honest but not hurtful, I recommend you _____27_____ your words carefully, perhaps bu saying, “Hey, you look great. Very healthy looking.” And always remember, it’s not fat. It’s muscular.Matters of the Heart. This is a tricky one.Sometimes you’ll run into people who cannot wait to _____28_____ their hearts to you. Then there are those who make sure their personal business stays behind closed doors. The general rule is not to get too personal, too fast. You don’t want others to thinks that you are looking into their lives. Therefore, try not to ask too many questions about someone’s love life, marriage and family until you have a friendship with this person. Even then, you’d better wait for your friend to come to you with the matters of their heart.Anyhow, it’s difficult to always avoid conversation landmines, so be ____29____, watch your steps and try not to open a can of worms.III.

The limited amount of land and land resources will soon be unable to support the huge population if it continues to grow at itspresent rate.So why is this huge increase in population taking place? It is really due to the spread of the knowledge and practice of what is becoming known as “Death Control”. You have no doubt heard of the term “Birth Control”. “Death Control” is something rather different. It recognizes the work of the doctors and scientists who now keep alive people who, not very long ago, would have died of a variety of then incurable diseases. Through a wide variety of technological innovations that include farming methods and the control of deadly diseases, we have found ways to reduce the rate at which we die. However, this success is the very cause of the greatest threat to mankind.If we examine the amount of land available for this ever-increasing population, we begin to see the problem. If everyone on the planet had an equal share of land, we would each have about 50,000 square metres. This figure seems to be quite encouraging until we examine the type of land we would have. More than three-fifths of the world’s land cannot produce food.Obviously, with so little land to support us, we should be taking great care not to reduce it further. But we are not! Instead, we are consuming its “capital”—its nonrenewable fossil fuels and other mineral deposits that took millions of years to form but which are now being destroyed in decades. We are also doing the same with other vital resources not usually thought of as being nonrenewable such as fertile soils, groundwater and the millions of other species that share the earth with us.It is a very common belief that the problems of the population explosion are caused mainly by poor people living in poor countries who do not know enough to limit their reproduction. This is not true. The actual number of people in an area is not as important as the effect they have on nature. Developing countries do have an effect on their environment but it is the populations of richer countries that have a far greater impact on the earth as a whole.58. The word “incurable” in Paragraph 2 means _______.A. commonB. widespreadC. unknownD. untreatable59. There isn’t enough land to support human beings because _______.A. most of the world’s land is unusableB. there are more seas than land in the worldC. the world’s land has already been taken upD. the world’s land is not distributed equally60. What does “to limit their reproduction” in the last paragraph mean?A. To control death.B. To produce less goods.C To practice birth control. D. To increase.,.61. What do you think the writer is really concerned about?A. Long life spans (跨度).B. Population increase.C. The success of “Death Control”.D. Overuse of resources.Part III Reading and Writing (37%)C. 14%When accidents become inventionsHave you ever notice the little accidents in your life? Sometimes accidents are g____62____. They can even change your life—many useful things were invented by accident.For example, at first, jeans were o____63____ for workers. They were very s____64____ and people didn’t make them become weak easily. But other people found they could last for a long time without breaking or getting weaker as well. Later on, jeans became popular all over the world.When you see colorful fireworks, you probably don’t think about the Chinese cook who invented them in old times by accidents. He mixed together some common things from the kitchen. The m____65____ burnt and made a beautiful light.The invention of the Band-Aid was also a surprise. About 90 years ago, Earle Dickson worked at Johnson & Johnson. His wife was always accidentally cutting her fingers in the kitchen, but she couldn’t bandage herself up. Dickson decided to make something to help his wife cover her cuts. So he used a piece of gauze and put it on some tape. Later, his boss made this into a popular product: the Band-Aid.Nowadays, microwave ovens are popular around the world. But in the b____66____, people invented the microwave for the war. American Percy Spencer found that microwaves could cook. He saw a candy in his pocket getting soft when he worked b____67____ the microwaves. Spencer then did many tests to p____68____ that microwaves could cook food. In 1947, the first microwave oven in the world came into being.D. 8%The West began to take more notice of the East. The fifth volume of an enormous work re-assessing the Chinese contribution to science and technology is to be published next year. The first volume, which was published twenty years ago, set the tone for the whole work. In it, evidence was given to show that many inventions which, until then, western historians had claimed for Europe, were made first in China. The attempt to rewrite the intellectual history of the world was not received without protest by some respectable historians. However, the evidence that has been presented so far in the first four volumes has persuaded many historians who were doubtful at first. China’s invention of paper, printing, the magnetic compass and gunpowder has never been quarreled, but this new history has added advanced bridge design, mechanical clocks, paddle boats and many other inventions tothe list.In the four volumes published so far no attempt has been made to explain why China has not kept up with the West in science and technology in modern times. It is probable that the answer is to be found in the social and economic history of China, where an unchanged society under a relatively kind regime (政治制度) of upper classes contrasts with the potentially revolutionary and energetic society of the West at the end of the Middle Ages. In recent years, the Chinese government has been making every effort to catch up with the West again, and there is little doubt that the gap is being reduced year by year. But will China avoid the West’s mistakes?69. So far, how many volumes have been published?70. When was the first volume published?71. ________ are the four inventions of ancient China that are generally recognized by western historians.72. The subject of this five-volume work is ________.73. Write at least 60 words on the topic “An interesting ______” (以“一位有趣的人或一件有趣的事或一次有趣的旅行或一本有趣的书或一部有趣的电影”为题写一篇不少于60词的短文,标点符号不占格。

The then-CEO (时任首席执行官), Sun Dongxu, criticized (批评) Dong. That made Dong’s fans upset.Surprisingly, this controversy made Dong even more popular. In just one week, his Douyin followers increased by over 3 million, while East Buy lost more than 2 million followers. Sun was no longer the CEO and Dong became vice president (副总裁) of New Oriental’s cultural and tourism business. But he said, “I am not good-looking or tall. I don’t know why I have so many supporters.”However, Xu Hanze, a professor at Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronantics (南京航空航天大学), believes that Dong got more attention because of his talent and intelligence, thanks to his habit of reading.In the age of consumerism (消费主义), Dong does not trick customers into buying unnecessary products, but encourages them to be rational (理性的) when shopping online. He also puts more effort into educational activities and events to help farmers.He believes that people should not wish to be the next Dong Yuhui. “I want to tell other young livestreamers that they do not need to be me, as each story is moving in its own way.”15.What raised the controversy?A.East Buy cheated the customers.B.Dong was impolite while hosting livestreaming.C.Sun Dongxu criticized the team in a livestreaming.D.East Buy said Dong’s success was because of team efforts.16.What happened to Dong because of the controversy?A.He was kicked out of the company.B.He got even more Douyin followers.C.He became the CEO of East Buy.D.He took Sun Dongxu’s place. 17.What made Dong stand out (突出) among so many livestreaming hosts?a.His being well-read.b.His different methods of shopping.c.His talents.d.His encouraging of people to be rational with online shopping.A.abc B.abd C.acd D.bcd 18.What did Dong express in the last paragraph?A.Not everyone can be a good salesperson.B.Copying his way of selling products is unnecessary.C.Differences are the key to making livestreamers stand out.D.People should be rational when facing controversy.Two parrots built a nest in a tree. They lived with their two young ones, which they took good care of. The parrot parents went out to gather food in the morning and came back home by evening.

More and more classes are being held online today, so it’s important for us to have an understanding of the rules of online etiquette (礼仪). 27Firstly, being polite on the Internet should be as common as in real life.

If you wouldn’t say it to someone’s face, don’t say it online either.When you speak online, saying too many unnecessary words can result in your point getting lost in the text. 29 Then people will be able to understand your point more easily and there will be less chance of misunderstanding.Treat others’ private information the same way you would want someone to deal with yours. 30 This means being careful with passwords, private conversations and pictures. Of course, the same is true for information about yourself, as it can be dangerous to give others any of it without caution (谨慎).The online community has its own set of rules, which prove helpful with any online communication you have. For the most part, you should be polite, express yourself clearly and protect private information.A.You shouldn’t give the private information of your classmates or teachers to anyone online.B.So, don’t say too much about yourself on the Internet.C.So, it’s best to use short and clear sentences when trying to explain something online.D.These rules help you to have good communication and keep healthy relationships.E.It leads to them writing what they would never say in public.三、短文填空According to some old Chinese stories, there once was 31 ancient emperor named Shennong.

I knocked on the door and asked, "Hey ,Kevin, do you want to talk" No answer.I tried again, "Why don't you come out" Again, no answer.So, joking around, I took a stack of(—摞)cards and a pencil and wrote, "If you don't want to talk, we can write notes to each other."An hour later I was still sitting on the floor outside the bathroom with two stacks of cards in front of me. One was blank(空白) and one was cards from Kevin on which he had translated all his yucky feelings into words for me. As I read one of Kevin's notes, tears came to my eyes. It said, "Nobody in this family cares about me. I'm not the youngest, and I'm not the oldest. Tommy thinks I'm silly and Dad pays more attention to playing basketball. And you're never around to even notice me."Tears came to my eyes as I wrote back to him. "You know, Kevin, I really do love you and I'm sorry I don't always show it. I am here for you and you are loved in this family."There was no answer for a while, but then I heard a tearing sound coming from inside the bathroom.
