Agnes was known far and wide for her kindness. She would spend her days tending to her garden, always making sure that she had enough flowers and vegetables to share with her neighbors. Her house was never empty; it was always filled with the laughter of children who came to hear her stories, and the grateful presence of those who needed a helping hand or a warm meal.One winter, a terrible snowstorm hit the village, leaving many without food or heat. Agnes opened her home to anyone in need, sharing what little she had. Despite the harsh conditions, her generosity kept everyone’s spirits high. The storm lasted for weeks, but eventually, it passed. When the snow melted, the villagers found themselves surrounded by an abundance of wildflowers, something they had never seen before. It was as if nature itself was thanking Agnes for her kindness.Years later, when Agnes passed away, the villagers decided to honor her memory by planting a garden in the center of the village. They called it “Agnes’ Garden,” and every year on the anniversary of her death, they gathered there to celebrate her life and the power of kindness.Questions:1.What was Agnes known for in her village?Answer: Agnes was known for her kindness, which manifested in her generous acts towards her neighbors, including sharing from her garden and opening her home during the winter storm.2.How did Agnes help her community during the snowstorm?Answer: During the snowstorm, Agnes opened her home to anyone in need, sharing her food and providing warmth, keeping the villagers’ spirits high despite the ha rsh conditions.3.What did the villagers find after the snowstorm had passed?Answer: After the snowstorm, the villagers found their surroundings covered in an abundance of wildflowers, which they believed was nature’s way of thanking Agnes for her kindness.4.How did the villagers decide to honor Agnes after her passing?Answer: The villagers honored Agnes by planting a garden in the center of the village and naming it “Agnes’ Garden.” They gathered there annually to celebrate her life and the impact of her kindness.5.What lesson does this story convey about kindness?Answer: This story conveys that kindness can have a profound and lasting impact on a community, leading to a cycle of generosity and gratitude, as demonstrated by Agnes and the subsequent actions of the villagers.Each question is worth 4 points.五、作文(30分)Let’s title this section as follows:Part V: Writing (Total 30 points)Instructions: For this part, you are required to write a composition entitled “My Ideal Vacation”.

It opens doors to new worlds, exposes us to different cultures, and enriches our imagination. As we delve into the pages of a book, we embark on a journey of discovery, learning, and sometimes even self-reflection. In the following article, we explore the various benefits of reading, particularly for junior high school students in their first semester of Grade 9.Firstly, reading improves academic performance. Studies have shown that students who read regularly perform better in subjects like language arts, mathematics, and science. This is because reading enhances vocabulary, comprehension skills, and critical thinking abilities, all of which are essential for academic success.Secondly, reading fosters empathy and emotional intelligence. By stepping into the shoes of characters in books, students learn to understand and appreciate diverse perspectives. This not only broadens their minds but also cultivates empathy, allowing them to better connect with others.Moreover, reading reduces stress and promotes relaxation. In today’s fast-paced world, students often feel overwhelmed with academic pressure and social demands. A good book can provide an escape from reality, allowing the mind to unwind and recharge.Lastly, reading inspires creativity and imagination. The worlds created byauthors are boundless, and they inspire readers to think outside the box and imagine possibilities beyond their immediate surroundings. This can lead to new ideas, innovative solutions, and a lifelong love for learning. Questions:1.What is the main purpose of the passage?A)To entertain readers with interesting stories.B)To promote the benefits of reading for junior high school students.C)To criticize the lack of reading among students.D)To explain the history of reading.Answer: BExplanation: The passage explicitly states its purpose in the first paragraph by exploring the various benefits of reading, particularly for junior high school students in their first semester of Grade 9.2.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT a benefit of reading?A)Improved academic performance.B)Increased stress levels.C)Cultivated empathy.D)Inspired creativity.Answer: BExplanation: The passage mentions several benefits of reading, including improved academic performance (A), cultivated empathy (C), and inspired creativity (D). However, it does not state that reading increases stress levels (B). In fact, it says the opposite, that reading reduces stress and promotes relaxation.3.How does reading help in developing empathy and emotional intelligence?A)By providing practical advice on how to interact with others.B)By allowing students to experience different perspectives through characters inbooks.C)By teaching students to memorize complex emotional terms.D)By encouraging students to engage in debates and arguments.Answer: BExplanation: The passage states that reading fosters empathy and emotionalintelligence by stepping into the shoes of characters in books, thereby learning tounderstand and appreciate diverse perspectives (B). This allows students to developempathy and better connect with others. The other options do not accurately describe how reading helps in developing empathy and emotional intelligence.三、完型填空(15分)Cloze Test (For Grade 9, First Semester, Foreign Language Teaching and Research Press Edition)Passage:It was a cold winter morning. The sun was shining, but the wind was blowing hard. I was walking to school, trying to keep my hands warm in my pockets.Suddenly, I heard a strange sound coming from a nearby bush. Curious, I went closer to investigate.As I approached, I saw a small bird lying on the ground, struggling to get up. It had obviously fallen from its nest and was injured. Without hesitation,I picked it up gently and examined its tiny wings. They were trembling, butnot 1 broken.I knew I had to do something to help this little creature. So, I wrapped it in my scarf to keep it warm and continued my walk to school. Arriving at school, I immediately went to see the school nurse, Mrs. Lee. She was very kind and helped me 2 the bird in a small box with soft cotton inside. Mrs. Lee suggested that I take the bird to the local wildlife rescue center after school. I agreed and spent the rest of the day thinking about the little bird’s 3.After school, I rushed to the rescue center and handed over the bird. The staff there were very appreciative of my efforts and promised to take good care of it.

However, some people believe that studying English in China is more beneficial. Here are some reasons why studying English in China is a good choice.Firstly, studying English in China allows students to immerse themselves in an English-speaking environment. They can practice their English skills with native speakers every day, which will help them improvetheir speaking and listening abilities. Moreover, students can participate in various English activities, such as clubs, competitions, and cultural exchanges, which will enhance their confidence and communication skills.Secondly, studying English in China is more cost-effective. The cost of studying abroad is usually much higher than studying in China. Students can save a lot of money by studying in their home country.

Once a dish comes, instead of lifting our chopsticks, we take out our mobiles and click. Later, we post the photos onto Weibo or WeChat, waiting to be “liked”. Then we check our mobiles from time to time during the meal, to see whether we get “liked” or not. We just cannot leave our mobiles for only a meal.Does that sound familiar to you? Do you do that often? If not, how do you feel when others do that when having dinner with you?A recent study suggests that what we are used to doing is not so good. Spending time taking photos of food makes the food less pleasant. To test this, some researchers did an experiment. Some people were asked to take photos before they could enjoy food. As a result, it showed that the more photos they took, ▲. So, why not stop taking photos and just enjoy the food in front of you?Besides the scientific result, there are also some other bad influences of taking photos of food before meals. After posting the photos onto the Internet, one will not be able to control himself and check his mobile many times. “Does everyone like my photos? I hope a lot of people like them!” It seems that your mobile secretly calls your name all the time, even when you are with real people.So, next time you go out to have dinner with your family or friends, how about not taking photos of food? Let the food be delicious as it is and share your life with people around you. Trust me, and it will be a wonderful time.41. From the passage, what happens a lot at the dinner table nowadays?A. People talk about their Weibo or WeChat.B. People learn from each other how to cook dishes.C. People like taking photos with friends or families.D. People take photos of food and post them before eating.42. Which of the following can be put in the ▲in Paragraph 3?A. the less cheerful they becameB. the less delicious the food seemed to themC. the more interested they were in the foodD. the more “liked” they got on Weibo or WeChat43. What does the fourth paragraph talk about?A. The reasons for checking your mobiles.B. The ways of posting the photos onto the Internet.C. The tips(提示) of making others like your photos on Weibo.D. Some other bad influences of taking photos of food before meals.44. Which of the following is the writer's opinion?A. We take our mobiles and click when a dish comes.B. We check our mobiles from time to time during the meal.C. Spending time taking photos of food makes the food less pleasant.D. Some people were asked to take photos before they could enjoy food.45. What can we learn from the passage?A. Take photos of food in order to have a wonderful life.B. Take photos of delicious food and share them with others.C. Remember to have dinner with our family and friends at home.D. Enjoy the life with people around us instead of taking photos of food.B【2020·甘孜州】I love singing.

Reach expressions on your face can be one of them.A smile on your face showed that you're happy. Tears in your eyes tell others that you are sad or excited. Body languages can do the same job. When you put your hand up in class, the teacher knows that you want to say something or you may have some questions to ask. You shake your head from side to side and people know you are saying "no" orrefuse others' requirements. When you nod, people will understand that you're saying "yes" or agree to others' opinions or suggestions.Other forms can also carry different messages. For example, a sign at the bus stop gives passengers instruction on which bus to take. The flag language made by soldier can pass a different orders. Sound from the school bell tells the students and teachers went to begin or end a class. A photographer can use the photos he has taken to tell others about what he thinks of the world around him. Music and films also can convey the feelings and the ideas of musicians the directors.So next time when you see a piece of art or listen to some music, take it as communication with its creator and try to get the meaning behind it.26.According to the passage, you just need to if you agree to others’ suggestions.A. close your eyesB. put up your handC. move your head up and downD. shake your head from side to side27.Through a photo, we may know .A. which bus can be takenB. what the orders mean for soldiersC. how the photographer sees the worldD. when the students should have a class28.The best title for this passage may be .A.

Suggestions on Communication(B)Tokyo,March 11,2011People left their houses near Sendai,northern Japan on March 11th.A man and child look out over destroyed homes after a tsunami(海啸) and earthquake.Nuclear crises(核危机) in Japan's power plants(核电站).Could it have been worse?More than a minute before the earth under their feet began to shake,many millions of Japanese people got cell phone alerts; TV networks interrupted (打断,中断) their broadcasts and turned to the latest announcement of Japanese government; loud speakers started suddenly to warn people of the coming tsunami; bullet trains came to a stop. The earthquake on March 11 was the first test of the nation's earthquake early-warning technology (地震预警技术). However,in the fight of Man vs Nature,Nature won again. Hundreds,if not thousands of people,lost their lives in Japan. Scientists believe it is the fifth-strongest quake in the world since 1900 and the most powerful on record ever to hit Japan.Lin tells of calm survivorsWhen the office began to shake,his friends were calm and still working. But the shaking became stronger. People shouted at him: “Run out of the building,now!" This was Lin Jia's first experience of an earthquake. Lin,26,has been in Japan for three months,working as a software engineer in Shinagawa,Tokyo. Lin stayed with others in a bus station all afternoon. Buildings were shaken by a series(系列) of aftershocks. He was nervous,but the people around him were so calm and organized that he gradually (逐渐) calmed down.29. What does the underlined word “alert" mean?A. 闹钟B. 警报C. 短信D. 铃声30. Which of the following is NOT true?A. Lin Jia has never met with an earthquake in Japan.B. There have been five earthquakes in Japan since 1900.C. The earthquake is the most powerful on record ever to hit Japan.D. The local government warned people of the coming earthquake in some ways.31. What is the most important after an earthquake according to the article?A. Keep away from the nuclear power plants.B. Running out of the building.C. Keep calm and organized.D. Get the cell phone alerts32. Where does this article probably come from?A.a newspaperB.an advertisementC.a diaryD.a novel(C)A young girl raises her hand in class to answer the teacher's question. She loudly says the right answer but hears somebody call her a "know-it-all" and sees someone else roll his eyes. She doesn't feel comfortable enough to speak up again because confident women are thought to be "bossy(专横的)".The stereotype that confident men are leaders and confident women are bossy gave rise to the 2014"Ban Bossy" campaign (“禁用专横”运动)This campaign encourages young girls to become leaders and stay confident in the face of being called "bossy".Laila Farah, from DePaul University, US, says she believes this stereotype(成见)comes from history."there is an old idea that girls are not as clever as boys." Farah says, "There is also another old idea that women act according to their feelings. “Gender(性别)stereotypes come from nearly everywhere." Farah says,"It is learned when people were babies, from the toys chosen, to saying girls aren't good at math."In a study done by the Girls Leadership Institute, many girls said that the biggest thing holding them back from taking part in class was getting judged(评判). Girls learn to know their ideas and leadership skills to themselves.Maybe instead of never using-the word bossy, we need to forget the idea that being bossy is a bad thing. At the end of the day, bossy people get the job done.33. Which of the following shows the gender stereotypes from someone in class?A.Speaking up again.B. Rolling one's eyes.C. Raising one's hand.D.Answering the question.34. In Farah's opinion, gender stereotypes started_________.A.before girls learnt mathB.before girls went to schoolC.when people were babiesD.when people played with toys 35. According to the study done by the Girls Leadership Institute, girls_______ . A. can be really good leaders B.can understand the biggest thing C.are too confident to be leaders D.are easy enough to get judged 36. The writer seems to think that gender stereotypes are________.A.cruelB.unfairC.impossibleD.acceptable(D)Humans' Greatest AchievementsThe Earth is 4.5billion years old,but the human race has lived on it for just 200,000years.In that short time,we have achieved some amazing things.____37______The list is almost endless.The invention of the airplane has changed our lives.The discovery of antibiotics (抗生素)Has saved the lives of millions of people.Can you imagine living without electricity?What about the printing press (印刷术)?Without the printing press,you wouldn't be reading this.In the last 50 years,there have been great achievements in communication,such as radio,TV,computers,the Internet,and smartphones (智能手机). _____38_____.What about the arts?The arts have brought pleasure to many people,but are the Beatles and Bach more important than antibiotics?Finally,we must not forget humans' early achievements.____39_____ We can't imagine modern life without cooked food and cars.What are humans 'greatest achievements?To answer the question,we need to decide what we mean by"great".____40____ Or is it just something that makes us say"Wow,"like the Great Wall?What do you think?
