And 250 million children of primary school age have no basic reading and writing skills. However, reading makes everything p 1 in life: education, work and escaping poverty (贫困). Considering that, the Global School Community aims to bring digital books to all the children of the world and their families. Digital technology makes a real difference. It can reach across the world and is fairly inexpensive. The Global School Community makes e-books available to children all around the world, e 2 through mobile phones, Ipads or computers, saving the cost of making books and transport. Technology also helps improve our communication skills. Through the use of technology, teachers and children around the world can meet online to s 3 lessons and discuss ideas.

Have you felt as if people were looking at you, talking about you, laughing at you? If so, then you’ve come to the right place. Today we’re going to speak about how to d 1 with this sort of social anxiety. Here are two tips to help overcome this problem. One tip is to understand the spotlight effect (聚光灯效应). Most of people believe that others are paying attention to them much more than they actually are. In fact, everyone is thinking that they’re being judged over a hundred times w 2 it may only be once or twice. By keeping this in mind, we can look at others and think to ourselves, “ah, they’re probably thinking about themselves right now”. Whenever you start feeling anxious outside, you can remind y 3 of this principle. This will help you become b 4 in your future social interactions (互动). The o 5 tip is exposure therapy (暴露疗法). You need to expose yourself to the things that make you anxious. If you run away from a fear, it will only get bigger. On the other hand, if you face your fears over time, your body will start to realize that it is not a life-threatening situation and the amount of anxiety that you feel should gradually decrease over time. You can take small s 6 here. If you feel extremely anxious, you can start off by saying thank you to people who naturally have to talk with you such as cashiers or bus drivers. Then when you don’t feel so anxious, you can move on to making small talk with strangers who happen to be around you. For example, making a comment when waiting in line for something, you can gradually increase the amount of interactions and also the depth of these interactions over many months at a speed that you find c 261 （23-24九年级上·上海浦东新·期中）在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通顺，首字母已给，每空格限填一词 When a new cell phone starts to be sold in stores, many people rush out to buy one. We all want the n 1 , latest things. But what should we do with our old cell phones? Mike Townsend works at Total Recall, a cell phone recycling company. “Don’t throw your old phone away. Send it to us and we will recycle it,” he says. “If you throw it away, it goes with other rubbish to become landfill. In other words, it is put in a big hole in the g 2 —and it becomes a big problem.” Cell phones contain some harmful materials, like lead, mercury and cadmium. If your phone goes to a landfill, these toxic materials can get out and get into the water under the ground. That’s the water we need to drink or water that goes into rivers or the ocean. Millions of cell phones are t 3 away every year. That results in a lot of landfill and produces a lot of harmful materials. “At Total Recall, we take the old phones a 4 . Most of the materials in a cell phone can be recycled and used again,” explains Mike. “We sell the parts and they are used to make new p 5 . For example, phone batteries contain nickel and cadmium. The nickel is used to make steel, and the cadmium can be used to make new batteries. The plastic cases of the phones are made into plastic fence posts.” Mike says recycling your old phone is e 6 . “You can usually just take it into a cell phone shop and they will send it to us.” So, b 7 you throw that old cell phone away, use it one last time: search for a recycler near you and give them a call. （23-24九年级上·上海闵行·期中）Who is the greatest teacher in Chinese history?

Today, people still follow Confucius’ l 4 . He told us that each person has something worthy to learn and teach. “When I am w 5 three people, one of them must be better than me in some areas. I select their good qualities and follow them. I take their bad qualities and change them in myself.” He also taught us that thinking is very important in study. “All study but no thinking makes people p 6 . All thinking but no study makes people lazy.” Confucius is not only a great teacher, but also a famous thinker with wise thoughts about the world and society.

I dreamed of being a football star. I played a little bit, but spent most of my time on the bench. Over that summer, I found a special d 1 that bodybuilders used to gain weight. Drinking a lot of whole milk and eating plenty of beef every day added an extra 1lkg of muscle on my body. By the time the football season started, I felt ready. I was soon disappointed, though, when I saw that I was s 2 smaller and slower than most of the other boys. I found m 3 on the bench again. That was to change during one of our first games of the season. We had built up a lead (领先) and the coach felt secure enough to send me in for a while to play halfback (前卫). I was so e 4 . On the very first game, I met with challenges. When the quarterback (四分卫) handed the ball off to me, I thought it was my time to show off. However, I was soon hit by three of the other team’s p 5 . They hit me hard to the ground. I got up and walked off the field, back to the bench. Over the years, I had lost count of how many times I had dreamed of achieving something, only to find that the world had other plans. I h 6 this for a long time. It was not until I became a football commentator (评论员) that I finally r 7 that maybe the world’s plans for me were better than my own. （23-24九年级上·上海黄浦·期中）在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通顺，每空格限填一词，首字母已给。 I didn’t cry when I learned I was the parent of a disabled child. “Go ahead and cry,” the doctor advised kindly, but I couldn’t cry then, nor during the days that followed. When Jenny was old enough, I sent her to a kindergarten. On the first morning, Jenny spent hours playing by herself. It seemed that she felt very l 1 . However, to my joy, Jenny’s classmates always encouraged her, “you got all your spelling words right today!” In fact, her spelling list was the e 2 . Later she faced a very painful problem—at the end of the term, there was a game which had something to do with physical education. But Jenny was way behind in it. My husband and I were anxious about the day. I wanted to keep her home. Why let Jenny fail in a gym filled with parents, students and teachers? But my heart wouldn’t let me off that easily. So I pushed a pale, unwilling Jenny onto the school bus. At the kindergarten, I was quite worried because of her slow action. Jenny would probably hold up (阻碍) her team. The game went on well u 3 it was time for the sack (麻袋) race. Surely Jenny would find it difficult. Now each child had to climb into a sack, jump to the finishing line, return and climb out of the sack. I noticed Jenny standing near the end of her line of players. But as it was her turn to join, a c 4 took place in her team. The tallest boy behind Jenny placed his hands on her waist (腰). Two other boys stood ahead of her. The moment the player before Jenny stepped out from the sack, those two boys picked up the sack quickly and held it o 5 while the tall boy lifted Jenny and dropped her into it. A girl in front of Jenny took her hand and supported her, making sure Jenny gained her balance. Then she jumped f 6 , smiling and proud. In the cheers of teachers, schoolmates and parents, I silently thanked Heaven for the warm, understanding people in life who make it p 7 for my disabled daughter to be like her fellow human beings. Then I finally cried. （22-23九年级上·上海徐汇·期中）在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通顺，每空格限填一词，首字母已给。 Small business big treats A 12-year-old girl starts her own business selling dog treats(零食).

But the fire that followed burned up hundreds of m 1 of dollars’ worth of buildings. Not in history has a modern city been so completely destroyed. San Francisco is gone. Nothing remains of it b 2 memories. On Wednesday morning at a quarter past five came the earthquake. By Wednesday afternoon, half the heart of the city was gone.

Have you ever wondered why? Locusts（蝗虫）are super delicious f 1 for birds, but it is not always an easy job for birds to catch them. It is neither because locusts are good jumpers or runners nor because they are smarter than their enemies. The reason is that the colors of locusts c 2 with the colors of crops. When crops are young, locusts look green. But when autumn comes, locusts change to the yellow and brown color as crops do. Brown bears, tigers and other animals move quietly through forests. They can’t be seen e 3 by their enemies. This is because they have colors similar to the trees. For the same reason, polar bears that live on a land of snow and ice are white. Butterflies and bees living among the flowers are colorful like flowers. Soil insects are mostly dark-colored and they live under the soil（土壤）in a dark and wet e 4 . However, insects with colors different from plants can easily be found and eaten by others.

As Christmas drew nearer, she kept thinking about how she would not make her daughter d 1 . Finally, Helen had thought of having Luna send a letter to Santa Claus (圣诞老人) by balloon, saying Santa would catch the balloon during his flight through the air on his sled (雪橇). Helen helped Luna write down all the things she dreamed-candies, a Spider-Man ball, a doll, etc., and then put the p 2 into a red balloon. It was a cold morning. As they released the wishes to the sky, Luna whispered, “Dear Santa, please do find and take my balloon with you soon, will you?” The thing was, Helen herself hadn’t expected anyone to find the balloon. After a simple Christmas, the calendar turned to another year. One day in January, a friend called Helen e 3 , “Log onto (登录) Facebook! Guess what? A man called Alvin found Luna’s balloon! He wants to send Luna gifts!” In surprise, Helen logged onto Facebook and then she saw Alvin had posted (发布) the pictures of Luna’s red balloon and note, asking about Luna. Thousands of people from all over the country reposted them. Some commented in Alvin’s page, “Back then we were just like Luna. We had also hoped in our childhood that magic Santa would show up in front of us and realize our dream after hearing our pray. Why don’t we just act as Santa o 4 this time and bring magic to little Luna? Alvin, please count us in!” Helen went over all the posts in tears. Loneliness and helplessness had tailed her all the way, but they were g 5 for the first time. A stream of warmth flowed inside her. Helen contacted Alvin who had gone all the way to find her family for the past one month and told Luna, “Santa d 6 your balloon by accident. But how lucky you are! One of his elves (精灵) found it and will help realize your dream!” Who could have ever imagined that a balloon would bring the s 7 this close? In April, Alvin headed to Helen. That morning, just as chilly as the day Luna released her balloon, in front of Helen’s house, Alvin and his wife got out of the car with a box full of gifts in their hands. Luna ran out to meet them happily. “Is this what you wanted for Christmas, Luna?” Helen asked. “Absolutely!” Luna exclaimed. （22-23九年级上·上海奉贤·期中）Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words (在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通顺，每空格限填一词，首字母已给) Anger(生气) is a kind of feeling. In our daily life, we will meet many things which can make you lose your temper. When your teacher gives you too much homework, when your team loses an important game, when your friend b 1 your favourite thing and then breaks it, you may get really angry. Actually, your body will tell you when you are angry. For example, you breathe much f 2 , your face turns red, and you may want to break something or hit someone, but sometimes, you hide your anger. For example, you may hide it in your h 3 to become your secret. The problem is that if you do this, you may get a headache or your stomach may hurt. In fact, it’s not good to hide your anger, and it’s normal for you to get angry sometimes. But anger must be let out in the right way, without hurting o 4 or yourself. Let me give you some advice. When you get angry, you can talk about it with other people. It’s helpful to talk about your anger with other people, such as p 5 , teachers, good friends etc. When you talk about anger, those b 6 feelings can start to go away.

Remember that how you act when you are anger can make everything better or worse and it will also be harmful to your health. Anyway, anger is just a kind of feeling. If we can deal with it well, we can have a better life.

Have you felt as if people were looking at you, talking about you, laughing at you? If so, then you’ve come to the right place. Today we’re going to speak about how to d 1 with this sort of social anxiety. Here are two tips to help overcome this problem. One tip is to understand the spotlight effect (聚光灯效应). Most of people believe that others are paying attention to them much more than they actually are. In fact, everyone is thinking that they’re being judged over a hundred times w 2 it may only be once or twice. By keeping this in mind, we can look at others and think to ourselves, “ah, they’re probably thinking about themselves right now”. Whenever you start feeling anxious outside, you can remind y 3 of this principle. This will help you become b 4 in your future social interactions (互动). The o 5 tip is exposure therapy (暴露疗法). You need to expose yourself to the things that make you anxious. If you run away from a fear, it will only get bigger. On the other hand, if you face your fears over time, your body will start to realize that it is not a life-threatening situation and the amount of anxiety that you feel should gradually decrease over time. You can take small s 6 here. If you feel extremely anxious, you can start off by saying thank you to people who naturally have to talk with you such as cashiers or bus drivers. Then when you don’t feel so anxious, you can move on to making small talk with strangers who happen to be around you. For example, making a comment when waiting in line for something, you can gradually increase the amount of interactions and also the depth of these interactions over many months at a speed that you find c 261 【答案】1．(d)eal 2．(w)hile 3．(y)ourself/(y)ourselves 4．(b)etter 5．(o)ther 6．(s)teps 7．(c)omfortable 【导语】本文主要介绍了克服社交焦虑的方法。 1．句意：今天我们来谈谈如何应对这种社交焦虑。根据“how to…with this sort of social anxiety”及首字母可知，此处用deal with表示“处理，应对”，动词不定式符号to后接动词原形，故填(d)eal。 2．句意：事实上，每个人都认为自己被评判了一百多次，而实际上可能只有一两次。“everyone is thinking that they’re being judged over a hundred times”与“it may only be once or twice.”是转折关系，结合首字母w可知，应填while表示“然而”，故填(w)hile。 3．句意：每当你在外面感到焦虑时，你可以提醒自己这个原则。根据“you can remind …of this principle”及首字母可知，提醒你自己/你们自己这个原则，yourself“你自己”/yourselves“你们自己”，故填(y)ourself/(y)ourselves。 4．句意：这将帮助你在未来的社会交往中变得更好。根据“This will help you become…in your future social interactions”及首字母可知，在未来的社会交往中变得更好，better“更好”，故填(b)etter。 5．句意：根据“The o… tip is exposure therapy”及首字母可知，此处介绍另一个建议，the other“另一个”，故填(o)ther。 6．句意：你可以采取小步骤。根据“You can take small … here.”及下文的内容可知，建议要采取这样的步骤，step“步骤”，此空应填复数形式，故填(s)teps。 7．句意：例如，在排队等候时发表评论，你可以在几个月的时间里以你觉得舒服的速度逐渐增加互动的数量和深度。根据“also the depth of these interactions over many months at a speed that you find”及首字母可知，以你觉得舒服的速度逐渐增加互动的数量和深度，comfortable“舒服的”，故填(c)omfortable。 （23-24九年级上·上海浦东新·期中）在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通顺，首字母已给，每空格限填一词 When a new cell phone starts to be sold in stores, many people rush out to buy one. We all want the n 1 , latest things. But what should we do with our old cell phones? Mike Townsend works at Total Recall, a cell phone recycling company. “Don’t throw your old phone away. Send it to us and we will recycle it,” he says. “If you throw it away, it goes with other rubbish to become landfill. In other words, it is put in a big hole in the g 2 —and it becomes a big problem.” Cell phones contain some harmful materials, like lead, mercury and cadmium. If your phone goes to a landfill, these toxic materials can get out and get into the water under the ground. That’s the water we need to drink or water that goes into rivers or the ocean. Millions of cell phones are t 3 away every year. That results in a lot of landfill and produces a lot of harmful materials. “At Total Recall, we take the old phones a 4 . Most of the materials in a cell phone can be recycled and used again,” explains Mike. “We sell the parts and they are used to make new p 5 . For example, phone batteries contain nickel and cadmium. The nickel is used to make steel, and the cadmium can be used to make new batteries. The plastic cases of the phones are made into plastic fence posts.” Mike says recycling your old phone is e 6 . “You can usually just take it into a cell phone shop and they will send it to us.” So, b 7 you throw that old cell phone away, use it one last time: search for a recycler near you and give them a call. 【答案】1．(n)ewest 2．(g)round 3．(t)hrown 4．(a)part 5．(p)roducts 6．(e)asy 7．(b)efore 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了扔掉旧手机的危害以及如何处理旧手机。 1．句意：我们都想要最新、最潮的东西。结合上文“When a new cell phone starts to be sold in stores, many people rush out to buy one.”和首字母“n”可知，此处是指人们都追求最新的东西；考查new“新的”，形容词；根据空前“the”和空后“latest”可知，这里也应用最高级形式newest。故填(n)ewest。 2．句意：换句话说，它被放在地上的一个大洞里——这就成了一个大问题。结合上文“it goes with other rubbish to become landfill”和首字母“g”可知，此处是指地上挖一个洞，然后填埋废物；考查ground“地，地面”，名词；in the ground“在地里”，介词短语。故填(g)round。 3．句意：每年有数百万部手机被丢弃。结合上文“Don’t throw your old phone away.”和首字母“t”可知，此处是指许多手机被扔弃；考查throw away“扔掉，丢弃”，动词短语；主语“Millions of cell phones”与动词短语“throw away”是被动关系，且空前有“are”，因此这里是一般现在时的被动语态，其结构为are done，动词throw的过去分词为thrown。故填(t)hrown。 4．句意：在手机回收公司Total Recall，我们把旧手机拆开。结合下文“We sell the parts”和首字母“a”可知，此处是指把旧手机拆开；考查take apart“拆开”，动词短语，其中apart“散开地”，副词。故填(a)part。 5．句意：我们出售零件，它们被用来制造新产品。结合下文“The nickel is used to make steel, and the cadmium can be used to make new batteries.

Later she faced a very painful problem—at the end of the term, there was a game which had something to do with physical education. But Jenny was way behind in it.
