Considering this background, Wantang Primary School in Yunnan province really stands out. This is because none of the students at this school suffer from myopia. Parents, teachers and eye experts began discussing whether the school's experience can be used to tackle the rising level of myopia across China. Yang Chenhao is a doctor at the Children's Hospital of Fudan University. He said that while the school is a special case, some of its methods are highly worth learning, such as keeping children away from mobile phones and getting them outdoors more often. Yang Qingyi is a teacher at the school, which has 536 students. He said that all children are required to go outside during class breaks.“Even for quiet kids,we encourage them to take a walk outside.”he said. When the three sports teachers there are busy,teachers of other subjects will work as trainers to teach basketball and table tennis. “If there is one piece of advice that we can share on achieving zero myopia,I would say large amounts of outdoor activities," said Sun Fubiao,the primary school's headmaster. Sun said that a number of his students' parents are working in other areas so the school has fixed six public phones while not allowing use of personal mobile phones. “In teacher-parent WeChat groups, we often remind parents to pay attention to kids' eye health when they are at home for weekends or vacations," he added. 1.How is the first paragraph organized?

B What catches your eye when you're shopping for new shoes?That's what Cheresse Thornhill-Goldson wants to know. She's a sneaker (运动鞋) designer. She has designed footwear for players and many others. Now she advises students to follow in her footsteps. Thomhill-Goldson started drawing sneakers in fifth grade. Her interest in drawing led her to a high school for art and design. There,she met a former (以前的) student. He had gone on to work for a famous sneaker company. He showed her that designing sneakers could be a career(职业). After college,she got a job at that company. Colors, materials,shapes. A lot goes into designing a sneaker.But Thornhill-Goldson mainly pays attention to two things."How is it going to allow someone to perform at their highest level?”she said. She also thinks about what she wants someone to feel when wearing the shoes.“If I want someone to feel like Batman...maybe my color palette(调色板) is all black," she said. Today, Thornhill-Goldson works for a program that teaches people about the sneaker design industry. One of its goals is diversity (多样性). The program opens the door to students who don't have chances of design.“I know the power that one person can have to change someone's life.”she said."And I want to be that for other people.” Her advice to kids is simple.“ Follow the thing that makes you smile.” 6.What can we know about Thornhill.

I was driving down one of those roads last spring. Days of rain made the ground slippery to drive on. As I turned around a curve, I saw a tree that had fallen across the road. It blocked my way. I hit the brakes (刹车) and slowly drove around it. Then I stopped. I knew it was only a matter of time before someone driving faster than I was would run into that tree. I got out of my car and tried to pull the tree into the ditch (沟)，but it was too big and heavy to move. I didn’t know what to do. But 30 seconds later, a white truck appeared and pulled over. Out stepped a young man. “You need a chainsaw (电锯)?” he asked. I said, “Yes!” He pulled one out of the back of his truck. For the next few minutes, he cut the tree into several parts while I carried them across the road and dropped them on the other side. “You never know when you will need a chainsaw,” I joked while my new friend smiled and put his chainsaw back in the truck. I waved goodbye and watched him drive of before heading back to my own car. In this life, you never know when you will need a chainsaw. You do know, however, when you will need a kind and loving heart. 11．What was the road like last spring? A．Curvy and slippery.                             B．Smooth and clean.

D While writing this book, I once asked an expert how he kept from worrying. He replied, “I have always tried to follow the advice: when you have a lemon, make a lemonade (柠檬汁).” That is what a wise man does. But the fool does just the opposite. If he finds that life has given him a “lemon”, he gives up and says, “I’m beaten. I haven’t got a chance.” Then he starts to develop a sense of self-pity. But when the wise man is handed a “lemon”, he says, “What lesson can I learn from the bad luck? How can I improve my situation? How can I turn this lemon into a lemonade?” Here is an interesting story of a woman who did just that. Her name is Thelma. “During the war,” she told me about her experience, “my husband was sent to an Army training camp near the Mojave Desert. I went there to live with him. But I hated the place. I had never felt so terrible before. My husband was ordered out for training, so I was left alone most of the time. Not a friend to talk to but only the local people who couldn’t speak English. The wind never stopped blowing. All the food I ate and the air I breathed were filled with sand, sand, sand! I was so sorry for myself that I wrote to my parents. I said I couldn’t stand it one minute longer. My father answered my letter with just two lines—two lines that completely changed my life: Two men looked out from prison bars (监狱铁窗). One saw the mud (烂泥)，the other saw stars. I read those two lines over and over. I was ashamed of myself. I made up my mind I would find out what was good in my present situation. I would look for the stars.” 15．What will the wise man do if he has bad luck according to the passage? A．He will ask an expert for help.              B．He will write a book. C．He will make a lemonade.                    D．He will make the situation better. 16．Which of the following is TRUE about Thelma? A．She felt lonely most of the time.           B．She liked the food and the air there. C．She made friends with local people.      D．She was sent to an Army training camp. 17．In the letter, Thelma’s father was trying to tell her to ________. A．look at the stars                                   B．come back home C．find out what was good                        D．get out of the prison 18．Which of the following would Thelma most probably write in her next letter to her father? A．“The air I breathed is filled with sand, sand, sand!” B．“I still can’t stand this place. I’m leaving next Monday.” C．“Now when my husband is busy, I will often watch the stars.” D．“I’ve made some friends here, and we often talk and laugh together.” 二、阅读还原6选5（本题共5个小题，每小题3分，共15分） 阅读全文，并从下列的六个句子中选择五个还原到原文中（有一个是多余选项），使原文的意思完整、连贯。 When we talk about science fiction (科幻小说), many people will mention Isaac Asimov, one of the “Big Three” sci-fi writers (along with Robert A．Heinlein and Arthur C． Clarke). ____19____ When Asimov was three years old, he moved to New York City with his family. Though it was more difficult than they had expected, his father managed to buy a candy store. It turned out to be a big influence on Asimov’s future. As Asimov worked long hours in the store, he noticed that the sci-fi magazines kept drawing customers in. ____20____ His father, however, thought that sci-fi magazines were useless. He told his son not to waste time reading about things that “do not exist and never will”. ____21___ Asimov continued to read those magazines — secretly. While they opened the door to a whole new world for the boy, his father gave him a library card. The boy became a regular visitor to the library nearby. As Asimov himself once wrote, “____22____ And I made the most of it. For a poor boy whose family could not afford to buy books, the library was like a door to wonder.” Asimov sold his first sci-fi story when he was still in high school. As his writing kept improving, Asimov’s stories became more and more popular. By the time he was thirty-six, ____23____ He created the word “robotics” and invented the famous “Three Laws of Robotics”. It’s hard to believe that these great achievements all started from a love of “useless” magazines in a candy store. A．Asimov was born in 1920 in Russia. B．Asimov became interested in them very soon. C． This didn’t kill Asimov’s love of science fiction. D．His father bought a lot of sci-fi magazines for Asimov. E. Asimov was considered to be a master of science fiction. F. I can never be thankful enough that I chose to walk into the library. 三、任务阅读（本题共5个小题，每小题3分，共15分） For years, people thought that sleep was unimportant and inactive. Today, we know that sleep is important for good physical and mental (精神的) health. We have also learned that while a person is asleep, the brain is very active. ①By doing this they have learned that there are five stages of sleep. Stage one sleep is very light. During this time, a person wakes up easily. As we move into stage (A)________, our eyes stop moving and our brain waves move more slowly. During stages three and four (often called “deep sleep”) , it is very hard to wake up a person. During this time, the body repairs itself and makes more cells (细胞). In children and young adults,the body makes a chemical used for growing. In the next stage-REM sleep-we begin to breathe faster and our eyes move around quickly, but (B) 我们的身体不动. During this stage, we dream. The amount of sleep each person needs is different, and is often connected to age. ② (C)  In general, babies need fifteen to sixteen hours of sleep a day. Children and teenagers need nine to ten hours, while adults need six to eight. Over time, not having enough sleep-especially deep and REM sleep-can cause one to become sick more easily. Doctors also think that REM sleep is very important for learning, thinking, and memory. ③ Scientists are continually learning more (D) ________ sleep, but one thing they know for sure is this: for humans, it is as important as food and water. 24．在文中 (A) 和 (D) 的空白处填入适当的单词： ________; ________ 25．将文中画线部分 (B) 译成英语： _________________________________________________. 26．将文中画线部分 (C) 改写为： In general, babies need to ________fifteen to sixteen hours ________ a day. 27．将 To understand sleep, scientists study brain waves. 填入文中，① ②③三处中最佳的位置是： ________ 28．从文中找出能说明本文主旨大意的中心词： ____________________________________________________________ 第二部分 写作（34分） 四、书面表达（30分） 29．初中生活已近尾声，我们即将迎来崭新的高中生活。请以“My Plans for Senior High School Life”为题，从以下五个方面谈谈你的打算： 1.尽快适应新环境； 2.合理利用时间，保证充足睡眠； 3.认真对待学习，取得进步； 4.积极加入社团，交更多的朋友； 5.…… 写作要求： （1）内容包括提示信息并适当发挥，文中不得出现真实姓名和地名。 （2）全文字数不少于90词。文章开头已给出，不计入总词数。 （3）卷面整洁，书写工整，条理清楚，句式规范，标点符号和大小写使用正确。 参考词汇：adjust to 适应 My Plans for Senior High School Life My junior high school days are coming to an end.
