The four March sisters were sitting around the fire in the parlor. “Christmas isn’t Christmas without any presents,” Jo said sadly. “I hate being poor!” Meg said, looking at her old dress. “Some girls have lots of nice things, and other girls have nothing at all,” said Amy. “I don’t think it’s fair.” “But we’ve got Father and Mother, and each other,” said Beth. The four sisters looked happy for a moment when they remembered this. Then Jo said “But we haven’t got father.” Their smiles suddenly disappeared (消失). Mr March was far away with the soldiers (士兵). “Mother says our men are suffering and we mustn’t spend money for pleasure,” Meg said, that’s why we can’t have presents this year. “Well, each of us has a dollar to spend, ” said Jo. “What can the army (军队) do with four dollars? Nothing! I don’t expect anything from Mother, but I really would like to buy a book for myself.” Jo had a passion for books. “I want to spend mine on some new music,” said Beth. She played the piano and she loved singing. “I’m going to buy a box of drawing pencils. I really need them,” said Amy. She wanted to be an artist. “Mother didn’t say anything about spending our own money,” cried Jo. “We work hard for it so let’s buy what we want and have a little fun.” It was true. The two older sisters had jobs. Meg worked as a teacher for the King Family and Jo looked after Aunt March, their father’s rich, bad-tempered old aunt. Beth and Amy helped with the housework. Just then the clock struck six. Beth got up and put her mother’s slippers (拖鞋) near the fire to warm. “Those slippers are very old,” said Jo. “Mother needs some new ones.” “I can buy a pair for her with my dollar,” said Beth. “No, I’m the oldest,” Meg said. “I want to buy the slippers for her.” “No, it’s my job,” said Jo. “Father told me to take care of Mother while he was away.” “I have an idea,” said Beth. “Let’s not spend our money on ourselves. Let’s get some presents for Mother.” Her sisters thought that this was a very good idea. —Adapted from Little Women 27. How much money do the four girls have for presents? A. One dollar. B.

It is so named because the umbrella’s surface is made of paper brushed with tung oil (桐油). Although the oil-paper umbrella is now no longer commonly used for rainy days, it has never disappeared from people’s lives. For example, it is still a symbol of romance in many places. For the Yao people living in southwest China, an oil-paper umbrella plays an important role during a marriage proposal (求婚). When a Yao man’s relative visits a Yao woman’s family to propose marriage, the relative will bring a red oil-paper umbrella. If the woman accepts the proposal, she will take the umbrella and hang 12 small cloth bags on the umbrella’s ribs(伞架). Then the relative will return the umbrella to the man to tell him the good news. The oil-paper umbrella made in Fenshui, a town in Luzhou, Sichuan Province is world-famous. To make the umbrella, craftspeople must complete more than 70 steps. It takes a craftsperson about half a month to make an oil-paper umbrella. The umbrella is both beautiful and durable. It can be opened and closed at least 3,000 times. Its surface won’t separate from the ribs even if the umbrella is put in water for 24 hours. Bi Liufu, a native of Fenshuiling, another town in Luzhou, has been creating oil-paper umbrellas for more than 40 years. He has won many prizes in national and international craft competitions. For Bi, making umbrellas is a lifelong pursuit rather than a way to make a living. 31. The oil-paper umbrella still stands for ________ in many places. A. happiness B. romance C. peace D. joy 32. What can we learn from the passage? A. The oil-paper umbrella isn’t popular any more. B. Only the oil-paper umbrella made in Fenshui is famous. C. It is not easy for craftspeople to make an oil-paper umbrella. D. Bi Liufu has made oil-paper umbrellas for over 24 years. 33. What does the underline word “durable” in paragraph 3 mean ? A. Weak. B. Pretty. C. Strong. D. Excellent. 34. What’s the theme of the passage? A. Technology. B. Nature. C. Culture. D. History. (D) What subject do you worry about most at school? Many students worry about math. Some students can’t sleep well the day before a math exam. Others may feel very worried during the exam itself. But there might be a way to make the subject less stressful (有压力的). “For people who worry about math, posture (姿势) makes a big difference,” Erik Peper from San Francisco State University told the Daily Mail. That’s right—sitting up straight can help you do better in math exams. Scientists tested 125 college students. They asked them to do a math test while sitting in a slumped-over (趴倒的) position, or sitting up straight. After the test, 56 percent of students said the exam was easier to do if they were sitting up straight. Students who were not worried about taking the math exam did not do better from better posture. But they did find that it was more difficult to do math while slumping over, Science Daily reported. Good posture isn’t just helpful for taking math exams. Runners, musicians and public speakers can all benefit (获益) from better posture. When you feel stressed out, you can also try to sit up straight or stand tall. It can help you feel more positive and focus (集中) better. 35. How many students found it easier to do the math test when sitting straight? A. 125. B. 70. C. 56. D. 60. 36. What is the structure (结构) of the passage? A. B. C. D. 37. Paragraph 3 tells us sitting up straight can help us do better in math exams by ________. A. giving examples B. presenting numbers C. introducing a science study D. giving reasons V. 根据括号中所给的中文、单词、音标或英文释义，写出空缺处各单词的正确形式。(共8小题；每小题1分，满分8分) 38.

Ⅶ. 任务型阅读 (共15小题；A篇每小题2分，B篇每空1分，满分15分) (A) Every year, the Touching China Award recognizes (认可) people who have made significant contributions (贡献) to society through their work and actions. This year, a group of retired (退休的) professionals in China won the award for their efforts in sharing knowledge through short videos. There are former teachers, scientists and engineers in the group. They created videos on a range of topics, such as literature and science. Wu Yuren, for example, is a retired physics teacher. She became known as “Grandma Wu” on social media because her experiments were humorous and easy. “I made these videos to arouse (引发) young people’s curiosity about daily life and use everyday tools to experience the wonder of science,” Wu told People’s Daily. Wu is in her 70s but still writes her scripts (脚本) and looks for help from other teachers. Another award winner is Wang Pinxian. He is an 87-year-old marine geologist (海洋地质学家) and teacher at Tongji University’ School of Ocean and Earth Science. Over the past two years, Wang has used his videos to share his knowledge of the ocean with viewers. He looks at things like the secrets of the Bermuda Triangle (百慕大三角) and whether sea monsters really exist. The popularity of these videos has been well-tested. Thousands of viewers have watched and shared the group’s content. Many followers expressed their thanks for the opportunity to learn new things and stay in touch with the world around them. According to CCTV, their videos are like “classrooms without walls and universities without barriers (障碍).” In the words of the Touching China Award jury, “The popularity created by gray-haired people has created real energy.” 请根据短文内容，回答下列问题。(答案不超过6个词) 51. How often does the Touching China Award recognize people making significant contributions to society? ________________________________ 52. Why did the group of retired professionals win the award? ________________________________ 53. What makes Wu Yuren famous as “Grandma Wu” on social medial? ________________________________ 54. How old is Wang Pinxian? ________________________________ 55. Did these gray-haired people create popularity or real energy? ________________________________ (B) According to several recent surveys, some people fear public speaking more than anything else. Luckily, this fear can be overcome (克服) with two simple methods: practice and using positive (正面的) energy from the audience. Practicing for a speech is important. After the task of writing the speech is complete, speakers must practice, practice, practice. The more times they practice the speech, the more comfortable they are discussing the topic. Using objects such as mirrors or video recordings as they practice can show speakers what they look and sound like to the audience. Video is very helpful as it can be watched many times, with the presenters focusing on one part at a time. Another way is to use the audience’s positive energy. Speakers need to remember that the audience wants them to succeed. Something like a small nod or a smile from a member of the audience should give confidence to the presenters. While it is easy for nervous speakers to focus only on getting through the presentation, using the audience’s good will (意愿) helps much in making a speech better. All in all, with proper practice and audience empathy (共鸣), it is possible to overcome the fear of public speaking and make a successful speech. So there is no need to fear speaking anymore. 请根据短文内容，在表格中空格内填入最恰当的单词，每空限填1个单词。 How to overcome the fear of public speaking ___56___ of overcoming fear of public speaking Practice ◇Practice for a speech after ___57___ the task of writing. ◇Using objects like video recordings as they practice is helpful because they can ___58___ the videos many times. Using the audience’s positive energy ◇Don’t forget that the audience wants them to succeed. ◇If the audience ___59___ or smiles, the presenters should feel confident. Conclusion ◇Proper practice and audience empathy can make the speech a ___60___, so they needn’t fear it any more. \Ⅷ. 书面表达 (满分15分) 61. 八年级即将接近尾声，阳光中学八(1)班将举行一次主题班会，请同学们谈一谈这一学年来自己的变化与感受。假如你叫Daniel，请根据表格中的信息，为自己准备一份英语演讲稿。 内容 过去 现在 学习 玩太多游戏； 阅读好书；…… 环保 浪费水电； 节约资源；…… 礼仪 大声喧哗； 举止礼貌；…… 展望未来 ……(至少一点) 要求： 1. 内容涵盖所有要点，可适当发挥； 2. 短文中不得出现真实的校名和人名； 3. 词数90左右，开头结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 Hello, I’m Daniel.

The four March sisters were sitting around the fire in the parlor. “Christmas isn’t Christmas without any presents,” Jo said sadly. “I hate being poor!” Meg said, looking at her old dress. “Some girls have lots of nice things, and other girls have nothing at all,” said Amy. “I don’t think it’s fair.” “But we’ve got Father and Mother, and each other,” said Beth. The four sisters looked happy for a moment when they remembered this. Then Jo said “But we haven’t got father.” Their smiles suddenly disappeared (消失). Mr March was far away with the soldiers (士兵). “Mother says our men are suffering and we mustn’t spend money for pleasure,” Meg said, that’s why we can’t have presents this year. “Well, each of us has a dollar to spend, ” said Jo. “What can the army (军队) do with four dollars? Nothing! I don’t expect anything from Mother, but I really would like to buy a book for myself.” Jo had a passion for books. “I want to spend mine on some new music,” said Beth. She played the piano and she loved singing. “I’m going to buy a box of drawing pencils. I really need them,” said Amy. She wanted to be an artist. “Mother didn’t say anything about spending our own money,” cried Jo. “We work hard for it so let’s buy what we want and have a little fun.” It was true. The two older sisters had jobs. Meg worked as a teacher for the King Family and Jo looked after Aunt March, their father’s rich, bad-tempered old aunt. Beth and Amy helped with the housework. Just then the clock struck six. Beth got up and put her mother’s slippers (拖鞋) near the fire to warm. “Those slippers are very old,” said Jo. “Mother needs some new ones.” “I can buy a pair for her with my dollar,” said Beth. “No, I’m the oldest,” Meg said. “I want to buy the slippers for her.” “No, it’s my job,” said Jo. “Father told me to take care of Mother while he was away.” “I have an idea,” said Beth. “Let’s not spend our money on ourselves. Let’s get some presents for Mother.” Her sisters thought that this was a very good idea. —Adapted from Little Women 27. How much money do the four girls have for presents? A. One dollar. B.

It is so named because the umbrella’s surface is made of paper brushed with tung oil (桐油). Although the oil-paper umbrella is now no longer commonly used for rainy days, it has never disappeared from people’s lives. For example, it is still a symbol of romance in many places. For the Yao people living in southwest China, an oil-paper umbrella plays an important role during a marriage proposal (求婚). When a Yao man’s relative visits a Yao woman’s family to propose marriage, the relative will bring a red oil-paper umbrella. If the woman accepts the proposal, she will take the umbrella and hang 12 small cloth bags on the umbrella’s ribs(伞架). Then the relative will return the umbrella to the man to tell him the good news. The oil-paper umbrella made in Fenshui, a town in Luzhou, Sichuan Province is world-famous. To make the umbrella, craftspeople must complete more than 70 steps. It takes a craftsperson about half a month to make an oil-paper umbrella. The umbrella is both beautiful and durable. It can be opened and closed at least 3,000 times. Its surface won’t separate from the ribs even if the umbrella is put in water for 24 hours. Bi Liufu, a native of Fenshuiling, another town in Luzhou, has been creating oil-paper umbrellas for more than 40 years. He has won many prizes in national and international craft competitions. For Bi, making umbrellas is a lifelong pursuit rather than a way to make a living. 31. The oil-paper umbrella still stands for ________ in many places. A. happiness B. romance C. peace D. joy 32. What can we learn from the passage? A. The oil-paper umbrella isn’t popular any more. B. Only the oil-paper umbrella made in Fenshui is famous. C. It is not easy for craftspeople to make an oil-paper umbrella. D. Bi Liufu has made oil-paper umbrellas for over 24 years. 33. What does the underline word “durable” in paragraph 3 mean ? A. Weak. B. Pretty. C. Strong. D. Excellent. 34. What’s the theme of the passage? A. Technology. B. Nature. C. Culture. D. History. 【答案】31. B 32. C 33. C 34. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了油纸伞的相关信息。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据“For example, it is still a symbol of romance in many places.”可知，油纸伞在许多地方仍然是浪漫的象征。故选B。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据“To make the umbrella, craftspeople must complete more than 70 steps. It takes a craftsperson about half a month to make an oil-paper umbrella.”可知，为了制作这把伞，工匠们必须完成70多个步骤。制作一把油纸伞需要工匠大约半个月的时间。由此可知，工匠们要做一把油纸伞并不容易。故选C。 【33题详解】 词句推测题。根据“It can be opened and closed at least 3,000 times. Its surface won’t separate from the ribs even if the umbrella is put in water for 24 hours.”可知，可以把油纸伞打开和关闭至少3000次。即使把伞放在水中24小时，它的表面也不会与肋骨分离。由此可推测“durable”意为“耐用的”，与C选项意思相近。故选C。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。本文介绍了中国传统手工艺品——油纸伞，属于文化范畴。故选C。 (D) What subject do you worry about most at school? Many students worry about math. Some students can’t sleep well the day before a math exam. Others may feel very worried during the exam itself. But there might be a way to make the subject less stressful (有压力的). “For people who worry about math, posture (姿势) makes a big difference,” Erik Peper from San Francisco State University told the Daily Mail. That’s right—sitting up straight can help you do better in math exams. Scientists tested 125 college students. They asked them to do a math test while sitting in a slumped-over (趴倒的) position, or sitting up straight. After the test, 56 percent of students said the exam was easier to do if they were sitting up straight. Students who were not worried about taking the math exam did not do better from better posture. But they did find that it was more difficult to do math while slumping over, Science Daily reported. Good posture isn’t just helpful for taking math exams. Runners, musicians and public speakers can all benefit (获益) from better posture. When you feel stressed out, you can also try to sit up straight or stand tall. It can help you feel more positive and focus (集中) better. 35. How many students found it easier to do the math test when sitting straight? A. 125. B. 70. C. 56. D. 60. 36. What is the structure (结构) of the passage? A. B. C. D. 37. Paragraph 3 tells us sitting up straight can help us do better in math exams by ________. A. giving examples B. presenting numbers C. introducing a science study D. giving reasons 【答案】35. B 36. A 37. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了良好的姿势有助于数学考试，同时可以让人感到积极并集中注意力。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Scientists tested 125 college students...After the test, 56 percent of students said the exam was easier to do if they were sitting up straight.”可知，科学家测试了125名大学生，测试结束后，56%的学生表示，如果他们坐直了，考试会更容易。由此推知，发现坐直了会使考试更容易的学生人数是：125×56%=70人。故选B。 【36题详解】 篇章结构题。第一段提出了很多学生在数学考试之前会感到担忧，为第一部分；第二段讲述了姿势会影响数学考试，为第二部分；第三、四段具体说明了姿势对学生考试的影响，为第三部分；第五段提到了良好的姿势不仅有助于数学考试，为第四部分。故选A。 【37题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Scientists tested 125 college students.”可推知，第三段通过介绍一个科学研究来告诉我们坐直可以帮助我们在数学考试中做得更好。故选C。 V. 根据括号中所给的中文、单词、音标或英文释义，写出空缺处各单词的正确形式。(共8小题；每小题1分，满分8分) 38.

After the task of writing the speech is complete, speakers must practice, practice, practice. The more times they practice the speech, the more comfortable they are discussing the topic. Using objects such as mirrors or video recordings as they practice can show speakers what they look and sound like to the audience. Video is very helpful as it can be watched many times, with the presenters focusing on one part at a time. Another way is to use the audience’s positive energy. Speakers need to remember that the audience wants them to succeed. Something like a small nod or a smile from a member of the audience should give confidence to the presenters. While it is easy for nervous speakers to focus only on getting through the presentation, using the audience’s good will (意愿) helps much in making a speech better. All in all, with proper practice and audience empathy (共鸣), it is possible to overcome the fear of public speaking and make a successful speech. So there is no need to fear speaking anymore. 请根据短文内容，在表格中空格内填入最恰当的单词，每空限填1个单词。 How to overcome the fear of public speaking ___56___ of overcoming fear of public speaking Practice ◇Practice for a speech after ___57___ the task of writing. ◇Using objects like video recordings as they practice is helpful because they can ___58___ the videos many times.

Luckily, this fear can be overcome (克服) with two simple methods: practice and using positive (正面的) energy from the audience.”可知，文中提到了两个克服在公众面前演讲的恐惧的方法：练习和利用观众的正能量。结合表格“...of overcoming fear of public speaking”可知，空格处意为“方法”，英文表达是way或method，名词；此处提到两种方法，所以应用way或method的复数形式，首字母要大写。故填Ways/Methods。 57题详解】 根据“After the task of writing the speech is complete, speakers must practice, practice, practice.”可知，写演讲稿的任务完成后，演讲者必须练习。结合表格“Practice for a speech after...the task of writing.”可知，空格处意为“完成”，英文表达是complete或finish，动词；after是介词，其后接动词-ing形式，所以complete或finish要变成动词-ing形式。故填completing/finishing。 【58题详解】 根据“Video is very helpful as it can be watched many times”可知，视频非常有用，因为它可以多次观看。结合表格“Using objects like video recordings as they practice is helpful because they can...the videos many times.”可知，空格处意为“观看”，英文表达是watch，动词，情态动词can后接动词原形。故填watch。 【59题详解】 根据“Something like a small nod or a smile from a member of the audience should give confidence to the presenters.”可知，观众的一个小小的点头或微笑会给演讲者带来信心。结合表格“If the audience...or smiles, the presenters should feel confident.”可知，空格处意为“点头”，英文表达是nod，在此句中nod是动词；or用于连接并列成分，or后的smiles是第三人称单数形式，所以nod也要变成第三人称单数形式。故填nods。 【60题详解】 根据“All in all, with proper practice and audience empathy (共鸣), it is possible to overcome the fear of public speaking and make a successful speech.”可知，总而言之，通过适当的练习和听众的共情，克服公众演讲的恐惧并做出成功的演讲是可能的。结合表格“Proper practice and audience empathy can make the speech a...”可知，a后接名词的单数形式，所以空格处是名词，且意为“成功的事”，英文表达是success。故填success。 \Ⅷ. 书面表达 (满分15分) 61. 八年级即将接近尾声，阳光中学八(1)班将举行一次主题班会，请同学们谈一谈这一学年来自己的变化与感受。假如你叫Daniel，请根据表格中的信息，为自己准备一份英语演讲稿。 内容 过去 现在 学习 玩太多游戏； 阅读好书；…… 环保 浪费水电； 节约资源；…… 礼仪 大声喧哗； 举止礼貌；…… 展望未来 ……(至少一点) 要求： 1. 内容涵盖所有要点，可适当发挥； 2. 短文中不得出现真实的校名和人名； 3. 词数90左右，开头结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 Hello, I’m Daniel. Back to my life in the last year, I think I have changed a lot in many ways.________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Thanks for your listening! 【答案】例文 Hello, I’m Daniel. Back to my life in the last year, I think I have changed a lot in many ways. First, I used to spend most of my time playing computers games. Now I find it interesting to do some reading because good books help me relax after a busy day. They also open up a whole new world to me. Second, I always forgot to turn off the tap and the power when they were not in use. Sometimes I left the tap running after I washed my hands. I always dropped litter carelessly in the park. But now I have realized the importance of protecting the environment. I always throw the litter into the rubbish bins. Third, I was impolite before. I sometimes shouted loudly or pushed in before others in public places. But now, I can behave politely in public and I often give my seat to someone in need on the bus. I’m sure I will do better and better in Grade 9.
