She was there and comforted me and we kept it a 8 , since I didn’t want people to 9 . From then on, through thick and thin(患难与共), it was just me, my car and my best friend.High school is a time of 10 , but I couldn’t understand for a long time11 we became so distant. Finally, my friend got her dream car. With its 12 , the passenger seat of my car became 13 . Our car trips became less frequent until I didn’t 14 drive down her street.It’s funny how a car can change a relationship so much. I had wanted her to get a car, but once she did, I 15 it.

They were friends. One mouse lived in the country; the other mouse lived in the city. After many years the Country mouse saw the City mouse; he said, "Do come and see me at my house in the country." So the City mouse went. The City mouse said, "This food is not good, and your house is not good. Why do you live in a hole in the field? Y ou should come and live in the city. You would live in a nice house made of stone. You would have nice food to eat. Y ou must come and see me at my house in the city."The Country mouse went to the house of the City mouse. It was a very good house. Nice food was set ready for them to eat. But just as they began to eat they heard a great noise. The City mouse cried, "Run! Run! The cat is coming!" They ran away quickly and hid.After some time they came out. When they came out, the Country mouse said, "I do not like living in the city. I like living in my hole in the field.

The 9th graders are going to graduate soon. We invite them to write about their school memories. Let’s share some of them. —Ms. Rosen1.Who dislikes tests among the four students?A.Brita B.Jay C.Rocky D.Angel2.How many of the four students mentioned Ms. Rosen?A.One. B.Two. C.Three. D.Four.3.What can we learn from the given information above?A.The four students will be in Grade 9 next term.B.The four students do not enjoy school very much.C.The four students all think it’s important to work hard.D.Their favourite memories are all about trips.C15、Do you know how it is when you see someone yawn (打哈欠) and you start yawning too? Or how hard it is to be among people laughing and not laugh yourself? Well,obviously it’s because we have mirror neurons (神经元) in ourbrains.Put simply,the presence of mirror neurons suggests that every time we see someone else do something,our brains model after it,whether or not we actually perform the same action. This explains a great deal about how we learn to smile,talk,walk,dance or play sports. But the idea goes further:mirror neurons not only appear to explain physical actions,they also tell us that there is a biological basis for the way we understand other people.Mirror neurons can undoubtedly be found all over our brains,but especially in the areas which relate to our ability to use languages,and to understand how other people feel. Researchers have found that mirror neurons relate strongly to language. A group of researchers discovered that if they gave people sentences to listen to (for example:“The hand took hold of the ball”),the same mirror neurons weretriggeredas when the action was actually performed (in this example,actually taking hold of a ball).Any problems with mirror neurons may well result in problems with behavior. Much research suggests that people with social and behavioral problems have mirror neurons which are not fully functioning (行使职责). However,it is not yet known exactly how these discoveries might help find treatments for social disorders.Research into mirror neurons seems to provide us with ever more information about how humans behave,communicate and spend time together. Indeed,it may turn out to be nearly the same important thing for neuroscience as what Einstein’s theory of relativity (相对论) was for physics. And the next time you have the strong feeling to coughin the cinema when someone else does – well,perhaps you’ll understand why.1.Mirror neurons can explain ______.A.why we cry when we are hurtB.why we cough when we catch a coldC.why we smile when we see someone else smileD.why we yawn when we see someone else get up late2.The word “triggered” in Paragraph 3 probably means “______”.A.set off B.cut offC.broken out D.found out3.We can learn from the passage that mirror neurons _______.A.relate to human behavior and communicationB.decide our knowledge and language abilitiesC.result in bad behavior and social disordersD.control human actions and appearances4.What is the passage mainly about?A.Ways to find mirror neurons.B.Problems of mirror neurons.C.Discovery of mirror neurons.D.Functions of mirror neurons.D16、Have you ever heard your own voice? “Of course,” you say. Has anyone else ever heard your voice? Again you say, “Of course.”But that’s not quite true. Nobody else has ever heard your voice—the way you hear it. When you talk, you set up sound waves(声波). The air outside your head carries the sound waves to your outer ears. But, of course, the sound of your voice begins inside your head. The bones(骨头) of your head pick up the sound waves, too. They carry the sound waves straight to your inner(里面的) ears. You get the sound from the outside and the inside too. Other people get just the sound waves from the outside. That’s why they don’t hear your voice the way you do.1.The sound of your voice begins ________.A.inside your head B.outside your headC.in your inner ears D.in your outer ears2.When you talk, other people hear your voice _______.A.through the bones of your headB.from the outsideC.from the insideD.all of the above3.The phrase “pick up” here means ________.A.to raise B.to getC.to choose D.to pull4.The passage is mainly about _________.A.waves in the airB.the way you hear your own voiceC.voice gets around far and wideD.the different ways you and others hear your voiceE17、Pocket money means that you have money in your pocket(口袋)that you can spend. You may get a regular amount of money from your parents or grandparents , for example , every week or once a month.How much pocket money should you get ? That depends on what your parents or grandparents can afford, how many kids there are in your family and how old you are . A little primary school kid may get one yuan , but older childrenwould get more . Each family is different.Many parents or grandparents give kids pocket money so that their kids can :★use the money to buy things that they want .★learn to find out how much things cost .★learn to look after money well .★learn to shop around for the best price★ learn to save their pocket money for the future.★ learn what is worth (值得)buying.It is difficult tohandlemoney . If you spend all of your money too quickly ,you will not be able to buy the necessary things that you will need in the future life . If you always save money , you will not get many nice things that you really like . Try to use your pocket money in the right way and you will always get something good.1.Usually kids can get their pocket money from their _____.A.parents B.friendsC.parents or grandparents D.Teachers2.What can not influence how much pocket money kids get ?_____.A.The kids' ages B.The kids' gradesC.The salary (薪水)D.the number of kids in a family .3.The underlined word “ handle ” means _____.A.pick up B.deal with C.buy D.save4.Parents hope that their children _____instead of only buying what they want .A.learn to handle their pocket moneyB.save their pocket moneyC.learn to buy thingsD.know how to shop5.The writer writes the passage mainly to tell us _____.A.what pocket money meansB.we should get more pocket moneyC.to save more and more pocket money.D.handling pocket money is useful.F18、First Aid,Learn It by Y ourselfWhen we are injured or suddenly feeling unwell, what we need to do is to treat it in the right way. How can we do that? First aid (急救) is here to help.First aid is the first steps you can take to care for someone who’s injured. It includes keeping safe, helping someone feel better and staying calm. It also includes getting help, either by telling an adult or calling 120.Sept 14 is World First Aid Day. It’s time for us to learn about this useful life skill.NosebleedAsk the person to lean (倾斜) forward and pinch (捏) his/her nosefor five to six minutes. Do not move the head backward, as the bloodcan run into their mouth or even lungs.ChokingStand behind the choking (因噎住而窒息) person, put your arms around their waist and lean him or her forward. Make fists with your hands and thrust (猛烈施压) your fists into their stomach. Do this up to five times. You can also do back blows – firmly slap (拍打) their back with your hand. If the object sti ll doesn’t come out, call 120.Broken boneIf the bone is broken, keep it still. You can support it with yourhands or clothes to stop movement. Then, find an adult or call 120 forfurther help.BurnQuickly cool the burned area with cold running water. You shoulddo this for at least 10 minutes. Then, call an adult for help or go to thehospital.

Believe it or not, that's exactly what world leaders did at a lunch held by the United Nations in 2015.During the meal, the world leaders enjoyed dishes like salads and burgers made with thrown-away vegetables and fruits. Chef Dan Barber, who helped create the meal, hoped that the experience would make the leaders pay more attention to the issue of food waste.It is a huge problem. One out of nine people on the Earth does not get enough food. Yet every year over one third of the food produced worldwide goes to waste!Why is so much food wasted? Firstly, food is often thrown away before it reaches customers because too much of it is produced, or because it is not kept properly in farms. Secondly, shops and supermarkets usually throw away unsold food. Finally, customers often buy more food than they need, so a lot of uneaten food is wasted.How can you waste less food? When eating out, you may ask for less food and take home what is left. Visit fast food restaurants less often, since they are usually more wasteful. Encourage your favourite restaurants to give unsold food to food banks.You can also waste less food at home. Use smaller rice bowls so that you serve less rice.Encourage family members to use unfinished rice to make rice puddings. Tell family members to make a shopping list and buy only what is on the list when shopping for food.Food waste is a growing problem and we, either farmers or food sellers or customers, must take this problem more seriously and do what we can to help.37. What did world leaders do at a lunch held by the United Nations in 2015?A. They threw away food as waste during the meal.B. They made dishes with waste vegetables and fruits.C. They ate food made with waste vegetables and fruits.D. They helped Chef Dan Barber create the special meal.38. The underlined word "issue" in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ___________.A. resultB. problemC. causeD. beginning39. The writer organizes Paragraph 4 by asking a question and ___________.A. giving examplesB. using numbersC. listing reasonsD. telling a story40.

I never 7 and put one in a bottle as some kids did because I never wanted to hurt these messengers of light. Their time on this earth was so 8 as it was.

It always made me feel sad when they disappeared in the fall and it always made my heart sing when they reappeared the next summer.We are like them in a lot of ways. Our 9 here on the earth is brief.

As one of the best-selling books in history,it has been sold as many as 200 million copies in 253 languages and dialects(方言).Now, around seventy years after the birth of the book,an American director has found a way to make it into a 3D animatedfilm(动画片).The book tells the story of a pilot,called The Aviator, who crashes(撞击)into the desert and meets a young prince there. However, in the film,the story starts years after the crash when The Aviator is much older.

The pages are complete with the pictures in the book,speaking about his time in the desert and taking The Little Girl to an amazing world where anything is possible.China is the first country in the world to see the film in two versions一in Chinese and English. The film shows The Little Girl's life and tells The Little Prince's story at the same time in a beautiful way.Huang Lei,who voices the film together with his 9-year-old daughter, says the film is like a childhood dream which is lost by most adults in this stressed-out society."The most touching part is that every one of us was a good-natured kid like the Little Prince,and it's a pity that this good characteristic(品质)goes away as flies,"he says.26.

In the year 2500,we are able to travel through time to any year in the history of the earth. This year is your last chance to change your lifestyle to save the earth.Beginning in the middle of the 20th century, a few people were worried about polluting the earth's water and air,but most people did not change their way of life. Instead, they continued to pour(倒)dangerous chemicals(化学物品)and other waste into lakes and seas,to drive more and more cars and trucks,and to cut down trees.By the year 2200,the earth's water was completely polluted. People could no longer drink water, and they had to use other types of liquids(液体).Scientists said that in the future there might be too many people on the earth. But not enough was done.So by the year 2300,there were so many people that food became scarce. There was no water to grow food and all of the fish in lakes and seas died because of pollution. Terrible wars broke out between the rich and the poor. Scientists were working very hard to find another planet in space where humans could live on.By the year 2400,the air was too polluted for humans to breathe. So we had to leave the earth. But only the rich were able to leave. Where did we go? Nowhere. You see scientists did not find another safe planet,so now we must travel around the universe in our space ships. We are still looking for a place to call our home.So it is up to you to change history. There is still hope. You must change your lifestyle now, before it is too late.30 .Which problem is NOT talked about in Paragraph2?A. Water.B. Air.C. Lifestyle.D. Food.31. The underlined word "scarce" means " ".A.昂贵的B.充足的C.缺乏的D.特殊的32. Which of the following is NOT true?A. Only a few people changed their lifestyle in the 20th century.B. There was no clean water for people to drink by the year 2200.C. All the fish died because of the pollution by the year 2300.D. We found a new home in another planet by the year 2400.33. What's the best title of the passage?A. Stop pollutingB. Change or leaveC. Look for new homeD. Return to the earthC"Listen carefully to what I say, " the time traveller said. "I shall tell you something that you will not agree. ""Why will we not agree" I asked."Because the science and mathematics you know are not correct,"he said. "You believe there are only three dimensions(三维空间)-length, breadth(宽)and thickness. ""There is nothing to agree with that, " the youngest member of our little group said."Exactly! " the time traveller answered. "But there is also a fourth dimension-time. ""We all know about time, " another member of the group said. "Time passes. ""I do not agree, " the time traveller said. "Length, breadth and thickness do not pass. They stay in the same place in space. We move about them. I can prove that time is the same. It does not pass. We move in time the same way that we move in length, breadth and thickness. "None of us believed the time traveller, and we argued with him for many hours."If we could travel back in time, " the scientist said." We could do things to change the future.""If we could travel forward in time," the doctor(博士)said. " We could do things that change our present. "The time traveller smiled. "It is clear, " he said. "That there is only one way I can show you that I am right. We must do an experiment. Please wait here.”He left the room and soon returned, carrying what looked like a clock."This is a model of a time machine. It took me two years to make it," the time traveller said. "I want all of you to understand that when I start the machine, it will immediately travel in time and disappear from present. "He turned to the youngest of us. "Give me your hand," he said.The young man put out his hand. The time traveller took it and placed it on the machine. Immediately, there was a sudden wind, and the little machine disappeared.I was certain this was not a trick, but the doctor was not so sure"Are you asking us to believe, " he said. "That the machine is now in the different time""Certainly! In my laboratory, a full-sine machine is almost complete. As soon as it is complete, I shall send myself on a journey through time. Would you like to see my machine" "Are you serious about this" the doctor asked."I have never been more serious about anything, " the time traveller said. "Come. "We followed him to his laboratory. There, we saw the actual machine,not quite complete, but large enough for a man to sit in.34. How long did it take the time traveller to make his model time machine?A. Two years.B. Two months.C. Twenty years.D. All his life.35. Which is the right order of what happened in the story?a. The model time machine disappeared with a wind.b.

The buyer doesn’t know which one they’ve gotten until they open the package. In recent years it becomes big business in China.During the Double 11 shopping day, Pop Mart, a leading blind box company in China, sold 55,000 Labubu dolls on Tmall in just 9 seconds, according to a Tmall report.One reason for their popularity is the appealing (诱人的) appearance inside the boxes. They’re like small cartoon characters. They can be placed anywhere in your home as a decoration. But another, perhaps more important reason people like them is the fun of being surprised.“The most interesting thing about blind boxes is the gap between what you expect and what you get,” said wen Xi, a blind box collector from Beijing.Last year, over 200,000 Chinese customers spent more than 20,000 yuan collecting blind boxes. Most of them were Generation Z, or those born after 1995, according to a report by Tmall.21.What can you get from a blind box?A.The toy printed on the box.B.A cartoon character you choose. C.One of the toys in a series.D.A decoration just for your house. 22.Why are the blind boxes so popular?A.The toys Pop Mart makes are people’s favourite.B.People enjoy the surprise before opening the box.C.Blind box collectors has made a great influence.D.These boxes are really a good choice as presents.Have you ever bought something and then changed your mind? For Alison Jenson, 15, this used to happen several times a week. Alison was a shopaholic. She just couldn’t stopshopping and she loved special offers.Alison’s bedroom is full of stuff. “I’ve been to every shop in Birmingham, I think,” says Alison. She picks up some earrings. The labels are still on them. “These were half price,” she says. “I’ve never won them.” Alison’s problem wasn’t just jewellery. She also bought a lot of clothes, though not many shoes, because they were usually too expensive. She has also bought lots of other small things-like 20 new covers for her phone. She hasn’t used any of them.According to experts, we all feel excited after we buy something new. For shopaholics, it’s a little different. Soon after they buy something, they think they’ve made a mistake and start to feel unhappy. So they buy themselves something else to feel happier.Psychologists(心理学家) first described the problems of shopaholics in 1915. However, there was very little research on the subject until recently. Now, doctors think thousands of people suffer from the problem, and the situation is getting worse. There are also more teenage shopaholics now, although most young people don’t have enough money to go shopping very regularly.Alison knew she had a problem. “I often bought something every day. Usually it was something small, but I just needed to buy it,” she says. “I spent money that I got for my birthday, and when I was short of cash, I borrowed money from friends or my parents. When I couldn’t go shopping, I felt anxious. Then one day, my parents just looked at all the stuff in my room and said, ‘This is crazy!’I knew they were right. I needed some big changes in my life.”Alison now gets help with her problem and feels she has changed. She no longer thinks she’s a shopaholic. “When I want to buy something in a shop, I ask myself two questions,” she says. “Do I need it? Can I afford it? The answer to both questions is usually ‘no’, so I walk away. It’s great!”23.The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 5 refers to ________.A.psychologists B.doctors C.Alison’s friends D.Alison’s parents24.Which word can best describe Alison’s feeling at the end of the passage?A.Glad.B.Worried.C.Embarrassed.D.Moved. 25.What do experts say about shopaholics?A.Shopaholics feel sad when they are shopping.B.Shopaholics feel more excited than other people when they shop.C.Shopaholics soon feel unhappy after they have bought something.D.Shopping is the only way shopaholics can feel happy.26.The best title for the passage above might be ________.A.Shop Till You Drop!B.Shopping Makes Me Happy! C.You’d Better Shop Less!D.I Can Stop Shopping Now!Walking towards the house slowly, Emma stopped to cut off fading flowers or dead leaves now and then. There were few weeds (杂草). Yuki had spent many hours of her two-week visit weeding in the garden. Emma wondered if Yuki had spent so much of her time outside because she wanted to avoid talking to her.But Yuki must have wanted very much to see us, Emma told herself. She had visited in the last weeks of June, as soon as her college was out for the summer.She said she wanted to stay longer but couldn’t because she had to work. Moreover, she needed to use the studio at her college for photography and she had to go to the library to read.“Why do you have to go to college to study art?” Emma asked her. “All the great artists didn’t go to college.”Yuki shook her head. “That was a different time. It’s hard to explain.”“I was thinking you could live with us all year round and still be an artist. This is a nice quiet place to live.”“I don’t know. How would I support myself here?” “You can always give lessons.” Emma said.“But I don’t want to spend a long time looking at kids’ drawings.”“What will you do after you graduate, anyway? Will you become a teacher somewhere else then?”“Grandma, I don’t know.” Y uki sighed.“What is the use of going to college if you don’t know what you’re going there for?” “Maybe I’m going because I don’t know. I just want to study art now. I don’t want to think that far ahead.”The minute Emma was going to point out that this was too careless a way to live, Yuki suddenly stood up and put on her straw hat.“I’m going to the garden to weed your flowerbed,” she said, “Let me know if there’ssomething else I can do.”On Yuki’s visit, Emma felt strained when they talked, and she was sure Yuki also felt it. But Y uki was never rude or irritable (易怒的). Even when they disagreed, her face was always full of patience.27.We know from the article that Yuki was _________.A.a gardener B.an artist C.an art teacher D.a college student28.From the underlined sentence, we can infer (推断) that Yuki wanted to _________. A.weed the flowerbed B.finish the dialogueC.leave Emma’s garden D.take some photos29.It can be learnt from the passage that _________.A.Emma and Yuki had very different ideas about collegeB.Emma wasn’t satisfied with Yuki’s work in the gardenC.Emma and Yuki agreed on living together all the yearD.Yuki studied art because she wanted to be a teacherVisiting outer space is still a far dream for anyone who isn’t an astronaut, but a day trip to the stars is already open for people to order!A new company (公司), Space Perspective, is planning tests with passengers. It has big plans to run up to 500 flights from different places across the USA by 2024. If successful, reaching the outer side of space could be as easy as flying abroad in a few years’ time. The plan will be for spacemen and up to eight passengers to travel in Neptune, a capsule (太空舱) tied to a balloon the size of a football field.They will move slowly upwards right to the side of space, 30 km away from the Earth. There, space tourists will be able to look back at the Earth and out to dark space and the sight of millions of stars. Although the price is yet to be fixed, the expensive flight, which will take six hours, is likely to cost over £100, 000. Because the capsule remains within the Earth’s atmosphere (大气层), no special clothing or training are needed. It means that older people or those with health problems will be included.One problem may be the method of landing back on the Earth. The balloon moves back down from space until it falls down in the sea. Passengers, spacemen, capsule and balloon are then gotten back by ship.Now Neptune faces competition from the Stratollite, a balloon being developed by a company called World View Enterprises, while the super-rich Richard Branson, Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk are all pouring money into developing business space flying machines. The advantage of the balloon is that it will be cheaper than a space plane or rocket.Space travel may soon be a reality (现实), but how visitors get there is still a very open question.30.We can see from the passage that Space Perspective ________.A.has completed over 500 tests B.makes it easier for us to fly abroad C.has quite a long history D.wants to use Neptune to carry people 31.According to Space Perspective’s plan, space tourists ________.A.should wear special clothing B.can watch the Earth from space C.will land back on the ground D.must keep in good health32.The writer implies (暗示) in the passage that ________.A.the race to get tourists into space is becoming hotB.there will be only four ways for visitors to reach spaceC.the Stratollite is popular with space passengersD.Richard, Jeff and Elon are all short of money四、阅读还原7选5How to Handle Being the New Kid at SchoolBeing the new kid at school can be a terrible experience!

Today, doctors have rediscovered more medicinal(药用)values of some plants.Let's look at some examples.Foxglove is a common plant. People have used it to make the heart slow down. Recently scientists have developed another drug(药)from it. This new drug helps prevent other heart problems.In some areas, malaria has been a problem.

Scientists have been working with it to develop new drugs against malaria.In Germany, some scientists studied garlic(大蒜)for four years. They found thatit helps prevent the build-up of plaque(血小板)because too much plaque is bad for health. This very common plant continues to be studied.As we know, there are about 250,000 kinds of flowering plants in the world.

I sent him to the school adviser, and I even begged(恳求)him. Nothing worked.One night I felt so powerless that I got down on my knees and pleaded for help. "Please God, I can't do anything more for my son. I'm at the end of my rope. I'm giving the whole thing up to you."I was at work when I got a phone call. A man introduced himself as the headmaster. "I want to一talk to you about Karl's absences." Before he could say another word, I choked up (硬咽)and all my disappointment and sadness over Karl came pouring out into the ears of this stranger. "I love my son but I just don't know what to do. I've tried everything to get Karl to go back to school and nothing has worked. It's out of my hands. "For a moment there was silence on the other end of the line. The headmaster seriously said, "Thank you for your time" and hung up.Karl's next report card showed a marked improvement in his grades. Finally, he even made the honor roll. In his fourth year, I attended a parent-teacher meeting with Karl. I noticed that his teachers were quite surprised at the way he had turned himself around. On our way home, he said, “Mum, remember that call from the headmaster last year?" I nodded. "That was me. I thought I'd play a joke but whenI heard what you said, it really hit me how much I was hurting you. That's when I knew I had to make you proud."( )33.

Social interaction includes getting together or having phone chats with relatives, friends and neighbors.In another experiment, the researchers conducted laboratory tests on 76 college students, aged 18 to 21, to evaluate(评估)how social interactions and mental exercises influenced the results of memory and intellectual performance tests. The students were divided into three groups: the social interaction group hada discussion of a social issue for 10 minutes before taking the tests; the mental activities 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 film of the Seinfeld television show."We found that short-term social interaction lasting for just 10 minutes improved the students' intellectual performance as much as working on so-called ‘mental' 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.( )37.
