With the development of artificial intelligence (AI), the world of art is undergoing a significant transformation. AI painting is changing the way we create and appreciate art. People use computer algorithms to generate (生成) artwork online, which is called AI painting. These algorithms are trained on large databases of existing artwork, sketches, and photographs. One of the key advantages of AI painting is its ability to produce artwork at a much faster pace than a human artist. While it may take a human artist hours or even days to complete a painting, an AI can generate a similar piece in just a few minutes. Another advantage of AI painting is its ability to create artwork that is difficult or impossible for humans to produce. For example, some AI algorithms can generate 3 D models of objects or landscapes based on 2 D images. Additionally, AI can be used to create artwork that combines various styles, resulting in special pieces that would be challenging for a human artist to create alone. However, there are also worries about the influence of AI on the art world. Some people argue that AI-generated artwork is short of the emotional depth of human-created art. They believe that art is not just about creating pleasing images but also about expressing human experiences and emotions. Others worry that the widespread use of AI in art could lead to a homogenization (同质化) of styles. In conclusion, AI painting is redefining the world of art. It is a good tool for artists to explore new ideas. As we continue to explore this exciting new trend, it will be fascinating to see how AI painting evolves (进化) and shapes the future of art. 1．What does AI painting refer to? A．The way we create and appreciate art. B．The use of computer algorithms to produce artwork. C．The large databases of existing artwork. D．The use of paintings, sketches, and photographs. 2．How many key advantages of AI painting are mentioned in paragraph 3? A．Two. B．Three. C．Four. D．Five. 3．Which is NOT the advantage of AI painting? A．AI painting is full of emotional depth. B．AI painting can produce images faster than a human artist. C．AI painting can generate artwork that is difficult for humans to create. D．AI painting can create artwork with various styles. 4．What is the author’s attitude towards AI painting? A．It has more disadvantages than advantages. B．Everyone should use it to produce artwork. C．It will replace human-created art in the future. D．Artists can use it as a tool to explore new possibilities. 5．What is the structure of the passage?

However, just at that moment a small dot (点) appeared in the distance and he tried to see what it was. Bruno remembered a book he had read in which a man was lost in the desert. As he hadn’t had any food or water for several days, he had started to imagine that he saw wonderful restaurants, but when he tried to eat or drink from them they disappeared into nothing just sand. He wondered whether that was happening to him now. But while he was getting closer to the dot in the distance, he saw that it was a boy. He was just sitting there, minding his own business.

When the boy looked at him all Bruno could see was a huge pair of sad eyes staring back. “Hello,” said Bruno. “Hello,” said the boy. “I’ve been exploring,” he said. “Have you?” said the little boy. “Yes.

She realized that directing herself in a 3D space didn’t require both eyes. This surprised her so much that she did some research. And she learned the brain can deal with 3D information with poor vision (视力) or even without any vision. Then the idea for Mind Beacon was born. It uses a thin line of light to collect 3D information about the locations (位置) of walls, furniture and other things. Then the light sends that information back to Mind Beacon, which then raises pins (大头针) to show where those obstacles (障碍物) are. Then blind people can “read” the locations of those pins to understand the locations of obstacles in front and walk around them. When the invention worked for the first time, Seoyoung didn’t believe it. She’d been up all night working on it. To guarantee that there wasn’t a mistake, she turned it off and started it up again and again. It had been seven long months of research and testing. Now this tool can help disabled people create a picture of their living areas in their minds. The heart of Mind Beacon is a 3D depth sensor (传感器) that’s connected to a computer. That computer can control three motors (电动机). Each motor controls a pin that can move up and down. When the sensor finds an obstacle, the pin rises. It can rise to three different heights. Each height shows the height of the obstacle. Someone who runs their hand over the pins can tell where the obstacle is and its height. Mind Beacon won Seoyoung a place at the world’s high school research competition. Right now, she wants to improve it. She imagines in the future it can be connected to a smartphone, with more pins to show the exact height of the obstacle. It will feel like a map showing the location and size of the obstacle in front. 1．What made Seoyoung have the idea of inventing Mind Beacon? A．The blind’s good sense of touch. B．The idea of winning a competition. C．Her wish to bring convenience to the disabled. D．Her ability to pick up a pencil without full vision. 2．How does Mind Beacon help the blind? A．By making it easier for them to use the Internet. B．By letting them know the locations of obstacles. C．By teaching them to describe dangerous obstacles. D．By training them to remember maps of their living areas. 3．What does the underlined word “guarantee” in Paragraph 3 mean? A．Learn about. B．Give up. C．Make sure. D．Depend on. 4．What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about? A．How Mind Beacon works. B．How Mind Beacon was made. C．The role of computers in Mind Beacon. D．The effect of Mind Beacon on the blind. 5．Which of the following best describes Seoyoung? A．Caring but shy. B．Helpful but careless. C．Talented and humorous. D．Creative and hard-working. （23-24九年级上·广东深圳·期中）I decided to visit my grandparents one Saturday afternoon. Grandfather had been ill lately and I knew my visit would certainly cheer him up.

Does friending someone on social media (社交媒体) make him or her your friend in real life? Robin Dunbar, a professor at Oxford University, found that only 15, of the 150 Facebook friends the average user has, could be counted as actual friends and only five as close friends. WeChat may show a similar pattern. Those with whom you attended a course together, looked for the same part­time job and went to a party take up most of your WeChat friends. In chat records, the only message may be a system notice, “You have accepted somebody’s friend request”. Sometimes when seeing some photos shared on “Moments”, you even need several minutes to think about when you became friends. Also, you may be annoyed by mass messages (群发信息) sent from your unfamiliar “friends”. You would have thought about unfriending this type of “friends” and sort out your connections. But actually you did not do that as you were taught that social networking (建立关系网) is valuable to one’s success. Besides, it would be really embarrassing if they found that you have unfriended them already. Then, you keep increasing your “friends” on social media and click “like” on some pictures that you are not really interested in. But the fact is that deep emotional (情绪的) connections do not come with the increasing number of your friends on social media. If the number of your friends reaches 150 on social media, maintaining (保持) these relationships can be difficult for you, and sometimes will even make you anxious. According to Robin Dunbar, 150 is the limit of the number of people with whom one can maintain stable social relationships online. 1．What can we learn from Robin Dunbar’s findings in Paragraph 2? A．A Facebook user has about 250 friends on average. B．Most of the social media friends can be actual friends. C．Among our social media friends, only a few people matter. D．Only 15 people of a person’s Facebook friends can be close friends. 2．What does Paragraph 3 tell us about most WeChat friends? A．People have deep emotional connections with them. B．People benefit a great deal from their mass messages. C．People become friends with them at important events. D．People seldom chat with them after accepting friend requests. 3．What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A．Removing unfamiliar friends on WeChat. B．Building up ties with your WeChat friends. C．Clicking “like” on pictures posted on Moments. D．Keeping increasing your friends on social media. 4．What can we infer from the last 2 paragraphs? A．It is difficult to maintain stable relationships with anxious people. B．If we are good at networking with people, we will certainly succeed. C．We should make friends with more successful people on social media. D．Making more friends online may not make us more emotionally connected. 5．Which is the best title for the passage? A．Ways to Develop Emotional Connections with People B．The Limit of the Number of Friends People Can Have C．How Many Friends People Can Have on Social Media D．Robin Dunbar’s Suggestions on Making Friends Online （23-24九年级上·广东深圳·期中）Thanks to the hard work of companies like California­based Orbital Assembly Corporation (OAC), space tourism is well on its way to coming true. Now, the company is working to provide a chance for space visitors to “get out of the world” by checking into the world’s first true hotel in low Earth orbit (轨道). The Voyager Space Station (VSS) will be made up of two rings. The inside circle will be fitted with spacecraft stations for guests while the outside ring will house the rooms, restaurants, bars, gyms and scientific research labs. The hotel which is powered by the Sun will travel at high speed to create artificial (人造的) gravity, providing tourists with a comfortable stay. When completed, it will have rooms for up to 400 people. Though the idea is attractive, making VSS a reality will cost time and money. Moving the VSS to space will cost thousands of millions of dollars. However, OAC believes that they will recoup the money by asking $5 million per person for each 3­-day stay. Though the cost may seem too high, it is cheap compared to the 55 million it costs to stay on the ISS (International Space Station). Besides, guests at the VSS will be living in the greatest conditions (环境). “You’re going to have the top cooks,” OCA CEO John Blincow told the Washington Post. “There’ll be two shows every night as well.” Visitors will also be able to take part in the activities that are not possible on Earth such as spacewalks which allow visitors to admire views of the Earth and space. If everything goes according to plan, the company plans to start work in 2026 and welcome the first visitors in 2027. 1．What do we know about the Voyager Space Station? A．It will be powered by electricity. B．It will be made up of two squares. C．It can provide relaxing living conditions. D．It can travel fast to get away from Earth’s gravity. 2．What does the underlined word “recoup” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A．Pay off. B．Give away. C．Get back. D．Use up. 3．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A．Moving the VSS to space will cost much money. B．There will be labs in the inside circle of the VSS. C．The VSS plans to welcome the first visitors in 2026. D．The VSS will have rooms for no less than 400 people. 4．Why are John Blincow’s words mentioned in Paragraph 4? A．To speak highly of the hard work of ISS. B．To show the high­end service of the VSS. C．To stress the importance of exploring space. D．To describe what life will be like in the future. 5．What is the main idea of the passage? A．It costs lots of time and money to travel to space. B．Travelling to space has long been humans’ dream.

And they promised to walk her every day. But from the second day, neither thought to walk the dog again. I was slow to accept that I would be the one to feed and clean her. As she looked up at the three new humans in her life, she calculated, “The middle-aged woman is the stupidest one.” Quickly, she and I developed something special. She’d look at me with those sad brown eyes of hers, and then wait, trusting I would understand her, which I almost always did.   Even so, part of me continued to hate the walking duty Joe and Becky had promised to carry out. It nearly drove me mad. “Not fair!” I’d loudly remind everyone I knew. On January 1, 2007, Joe’s doctor said an unthinkable word—leukemia (白血病). With that, I spent eight to ten hours a day with him in the hospital, doing anything and everything I could to ease his discomfort. Every part of my life changed; no part of my old life remained. Save one—Misty still needed walking. At the beginning, when my friends wanted to help walk her, I refused because I knew they were busy. As months went by, I began to realize that I actually wanted to walk Misty. The walk in the morning before I headed to the hospital was a quiet, peaceful time to clear my head. After Joe died in 2009, Misty slept on his pillow. The truth is, after these years, I’ve come to enjoy my walks with Misty.

With the development of artificial intelligence (AI), the world of art is undergoing a significant transformation. AI painting is changing the way we create and appreciate art. People use computer algorithms to generate (生成) artwork online, which is called AI painting. These algorithms are trained on large databases of existing artwork, sketches, and photographs. One of the key advantages of AI painting is its ability to produce artwork at a much faster pace than a human artist. While it may take a human artist hours or even days to complete a painting, an AI can generate a similar piece in just a few minutes. Another advantage of AI painting is its ability to create artwork that is difficult or impossible for humans to produce. For example, some AI algorithms can generate 3 D models of objects or landscapes based on 2 D images. Additionally, AI can be used to create artwork that combines various styles, resulting in special pieces that would be challenging for a human artist to create alone. However, there are also worries about the influence of AI on the art world. Some people argue that AI-generated artwork is short of the emotional depth of human-created art. They believe that art is not just about creating pleasing images but also about expressing human experiences and emotions. Others worry that the widespread use of AI in art could lead to a homogenization (同质化) of styles. In conclusion, AI painting is redefining the world of art. It is a good tool for artists to explore new ideas. As we continue to explore this exciting new trend, it will be fascinating to see how AI painting evolves (进化) and shapes the future of art. 1．What does AI painting refer to? A．The way we create and appreciate art. B．The use of computer algorithms to produce artwork. C．The large databases of existing artwork.

However, just at that moment a small dot (点) appeared in the distance and he tried to see what it was. Bruno remembered a book he had read in which a man was lost in the desert. As he hadn’t had any food or water for several days, he had started to imagine that he saw wonderful restaurants, but when he tried to eat or drink from them they disappeared into nothing just sand. He wondered whether that was happening to him now. But while he was getting closer to the dot in the distance, he saw that it was a boy. He was just sitting there, minding his own business. Although there was a fence separating them, he knew that you could never be too careful with strangers. So he continued to walk towards the boy. When the boy looked at him all Bruno could see was a huge pair of sad eyes staring back. “Hello,” said Bruno. “Hello,” said the boy. “I’ve been exploring,” he said. “Have you?” said the little boy. “Yes. For almost two hours now.” This was not true. Bruno had been exploring for just over an hour but he didn't think that it was lying. It could make him seem more adventurous than he really was. “Have you found anything?” asked the boy. “Well, I found you,” said Bruno after a moment. He stared at the boy and considered asking him why he looked so sad but hesitated because he thought it might sound rude. He had discovered something during his exploration, and now that he was finally talking to one of the people on the other side of the fence he couldn’t cross, it seemed like a good idea to make the most of the opportunity. 1．What does “that” in the first paragraph refer to? A．Bruno turned food and water into sand. B．Bruno read a book about a nice restaurant. C．Bruno felt so hungry that he saw something unreal. D．Bruno got lost in the desert without anything to eat. 2．What attitude did Bruno take towards the boy when he first saw him? A．Afraid but curious. B．Careful but friendly. C．Uninterested but polite. D．Doubtful but concerned. 3．What do we know about the boy? A．He disliked Bruno. B．He was unwilling to talk. C．He looked unhappy. D．He considered Bruno adventurous. 4．Why did Bruno avoid asking the boy about the reason for sadness? A．He had no interest in it. B．He thought it might sound impolite. C．He was annoyed at finding nothing. D．He decided to ask after they became friends. 5．What would probably happen next in the story? A．Bruno would say goodbye and go back home for dinner. B．Bruno would continue his exploration for something else. C．Bruno would cross the fence and play with the boy together. D．Bruno would chat with the boy about the other side of the fence. 【答案】1．C 2．B 3．C 4．B 5．D 【导语】本文讲述了一个名叫Bruno的男孩在探索过程中遇到一个悲伤的男孩，他们开始交谈，Bruno希望通过这次相遇了解更多。 1．词义猜测题。根据“After walking for an hour and starting to feel a little hungry, he thought that it would be time to turn hack. However, just at that moment a small dot (点) appeared in the distance and he tried to see what it was. Bruno remembered a book he had read in which a man was lost in the desert. As he hadn’t had any food or water for several days, he had started to imagine that he saw wonderful restaurants”可知，Bruno在感到饥饿时看到远处有一个小点，并联想到他读过的一本书中描述的在沙漠中迷路的人因饥饿而产生幻觉的情节，因此“that”指的是Bruno感到饥饿而看到不真实的东西。故选C。 2．推理判断题。根据“Although there was a fence separating them, he knew that you could never be too careful with strangers.”和“‘Hello,’ said Bruno.”可知， Bruno在看到男孩时，虽然有篱笆隔着，但他知道对陌生人要小心，所以他继续走向男孩，并向对方打招呼，这表明他对男孩既小心又友好。故选B。 3．细节理解题。根据“He stared at the boy and considered asking him why he looked so sad”可知，男孩看起来很不开心。故选C。 4．细节理解题。根据“He stared at the boy and considered asking him why he looked so sad but hesitated because he thought it might sound rude.”可知，Bruno考虑问男孩为什么看起来那么悲伤，但犹豫了，因为他认为这样问可能显得不礼貌。故选B。 5．推理判断题。根据“He had discovered something during his exploration, and now that he was finally talking to one of the people on the other side of the fence he couldn’t cross, it seemed like a good idea to make the most of the opportunity.”（在探索的过程中，他发现了一些东西，现在他终于和篱笆另一边的一个他无法跨越的人交谈了，充分利用这个机会似乎是个好主意。）可知，Bruno会和男孩聊篱笆另一边的事。故选D。 （23-24九年级上·广东深圳·期中） Japan has started releasing (排放) wastewater into the ocean.

However, neighboring countries and other experts say it remains environmentally harmful that will last generations and may affect ecosystems all the way to North America. Local fishermen, who heavily depend on the ocean’s resources, fear a huge decrease in their marketability. Already, China has decided not to import seafood from the Fukushima region and Tokyo any more. China’s foreign ministry considered this release as a “wrong decision” and expected Japan to reconsider. A spokesperson voiced their opinion, stating, “Japan’s self-interest should not harm the well- being of humanity in the long run.” The release of the wastewater into the sea is a threat to the ocean environment and will damage Japan’s international image.

She realized that directing herself in a 3D space didn’t require both eyes. This surprised her so much that she did some research. And she learned the brain can deal with 3D information with poor vision (视力) or even without any vision. Then the idea for Mind Beacon was born. It uses a thin line of light to collect 3D information about the locations (位置) of walls, furniture and other things. Then the light sends that information back to Mind Beacon, which then raises pins (大头针) to show where those obstacles (障碍物) are. Then blind people can “read” the locations of those pins to understand the locations of obstacles in front and walk around them. When the invention worked for the first time, Seoyoung didn’t believe it. She’d been up all night working on it. To guarantee that there wasn’t a mistake, she turned it off and started it up again and again. It had been seven long months of research and testing. Now this tool can help disabled people create a picture of their living areas in their minds. The heart of Mind Beacon is a 3D depth sensor (传感器) that’s connected to a computer. That computer can control three motors (电动机). Each motor controls a pin that can move up and down. When the sensor finds an obstacle, the pin rises. It can rise to three different heights. Each height shows the height of the obstacle. Someone who runs their hand over the pins can tell where the obstacle is and its height. Mind Beacon won Seoyoung a place at the world’s high school research competition. Right now, she wants to improve it. She imagines in the future it can be connected to a smartphone, with more pins to show the exact height of the obstacle. It will feel like a map showing the location and size of the obstacle in front. 1．What made Seoyoung have the idea of inventing Mind Beacon? A．The blind’s good sense of touch. B．The idea of winning a competition. C．Her wish to bring convenience to the disabled. D．Her ability to pick up a pencil without full vision. 2．How does Mind Beacon help the blind? A．By making it easier for them to use the Internet. B．By letting them know the locations of obstacles. C．By teaching them to describe dangerous obstacles. D．By training them to remember maps of their living areas. 3．What does the underlined word “guarantee” in Paragraph 3 mean? A．Learn about. B．Give up. C．Make sure. D．Depend on. 4．What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about? A．How Mind Beacon works. B．How Mind Beacon was made. C．The role of computers in Mind Beacon. D．The effect of Mind Beacon on the blind. 5．Which of the following best describes Seoyoung? A．Caring but shy. B．Helpful but careless. C．Talented and humorous. D．Creative and hard-working. 【答案】1．D 2．B 3．C 4．A 5．D 【导语】本文讲述了Seoyoung Jun发明了一种可以帮助盲人绕过障碍物的新设备。 1．细节理解题。根据“While doing homework, Seoyoung Jun closed one eye and successfully picked up her pencil. She realized that directing herself in a 3D space didn’t require both eyes.”可知，Seoyoung Jun发现即使没有完全的视力也能在3D空间中导航，这启发了她发明Mind Beacon。故选D。 2．细节理解题。根据“Then blind people can ‘read’ the locations of those pins to understand the locations of obstacles in front and walk around them”可知，Mind Beacon通过让盲人知道障碍物的位置来帮助他们。故选B。 3．词义猜测题。根据“To guarantee that there wasn’t a mistake, she turned it off and started it up again and again.”可知，Seoyoung Jun为了确保没有错误，不断地关闭和重新启动设备。故“guarantee”在此处意为“确保”。故选C。 4．段落大意题。根据“The heart of Mind Beacon is a 3D depth sensor (传感器) that’s connected to a computer”以及后文对其工作原理的描述可知，本段主要讲述了Mind Beacon的工作原理。故选A。 5．推理判断题。根据“TAnd she learned the brain can deal with 3D information with poor vision (视力) or even without any vision.

Grandfather had been ill lately and I knew my visit would certainly cheer him up. In the living room, Grandfather was looking at something on his leg. He seemed to be deep in thought. It was a picture of him and his friends sitting on their motorcycles. Yes, motorcycles. The motorcycle is a topic that I was told never to bring up. Grandpa used to love riding motorcycles.

It was my twelfth birthday and he wanted to take me for a ride on his motorcycle. I was excited as usual! He took me around the neighborhood a couple of times. Just as we were about to complete our last round, something unlucky happened. A cat had crossed our path and Grandfather turned to avoid it. This resulted in his losing control of the motorcycle.

I have something to show you. You will certainly like it.” I followed him. I could not believe my eyes when I saw a new motorcycle.

He seemed to be deep in thought. It was a picture of him and his friends sitting on their motorcycles.”可知，d排最后。故选C。 4．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“I could not believe my eyes when I saw a new motorcycle.”以及最后一段中的“Until now, I still remember the excitement of having my first motorcycle.”可知，当作者收到礼物时感觉惊讶和开心。故选B。 5．最佳标题题。通读全文可知，文章讲述作者的爷爷因为事故而不再骑摩托车并且不允许作者考取摩托车执照，多年后，在作者看望爷爷的过程中，爷爷送给了作者一辆新的摩托车作为礼物，并教会了作者克服根深蒂固的恐惧的重要性，所以A项正确。故选A。 （23-24九年级上·广东深圳·期中）My sister Diana went blind in one eye about 9 years ago.

Does friending someone on social media (社交媒体) make him or her your friend in real life? Robin Dunbar, a professor at Oxford University, found that only 15, of the 150 Facebook friends the average user has, could be counted as actual friends and only five as close friends. WeChat may show a similar pattern. Those with whom you attended a course together, looked for the same part­time job and went to a party take up most of your WeChat friends. In chat records, the only message may be a system notice, “You have accepted somebody’s friend request”. Sometimes when seeing some photos shared on “Moments”, you even need several minutes to think about when you became friends. Also, you may be annoyed by mass messages (群发信息) sent from your unfamiliar “friends”. You would have thought about unfriending this type of “friends” and sort out your connections. But actually you did not do that as you were taught that social networking (建立关系网) is valuable to one’s success. Besides, it would be really embarrassing if they found that you have unfriended them already. Then, you keep increasing your “friends” on social media and click “like” on some pictures that you are not really interested in. But the fact is that deep emotional (情绪的) connections do not come with the increasing number of your friends on social media. If the number of your friends reaches 150 on social media, maintaining (保持) these relationships can be difficult for you, and sometimes will even make you anxious. According to Robin Dunbar, 150 is the limit of the number of people with whom one can maintain stable social relationships online. 1．What can we learn from Robin Dunbar’s findings in Paragraph 2? A．A Facebook user has about 250 friends on average. B．Most of the social media friends can be actual friends. C．Among our social media friends, only a few people matter. D．Only 15 people of a person’s Facebook friends can be close friends. 2．What does Paragraph 3 tell us about most WeChat friends? A．People have deep emotional connections with them. B．People benefit a great deal from their mass messages. C．People become friends with them at important events. D．People seldom chat with them after accepting friend requests. 3．What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A．Removing unfamiliar friends on WeChat. B．Building up ties with your WeChat friends. C．Clicking “like” on pictures posted on Moments. D．Keeping increasing your friends on social media. 4．What can we infer from the last 2 paragraphs? A．It is difficult to maintain stable relationships with anxious people. B．If we are good at networking with people, we will certainly succeed. C．We should make friends with more successful people on social media. D．Making more friends online may not make us more emotionally connected. 5．Which is the best title for the passage? A．Ways to Develop Emotional Connections with People B．The Limit of the Number of Friends People Can Have C．How Many Friends People Can Have on Social Media D．Robin Dunbar’s Suggestions on Making Friends Online 【答案】1．C 2．D 3．A 4．D 5．C 【导语】本文主要介绍了在社交媒体上的好友数量并不会带来深厚的情感联系，研究表明150人是可以在网上保持稳定社交关系的人数上限。 1．推理判断题。根据“Robin Dunbar, a professor at Oxford University, found that only 15, of the 150 Facebook friends the average user has, could be counted as actual friends and only five as close friends”可知在普通用户拥有的150个Facebook好友中，只有15个可以算作真正的好友，只有5个可以算作亲密好友，由此可推知在我们的社交媒体朋友中，只有少数人很重要。故选C。 2．推理判断题。根据“In chat records, the only message may be a system notice, ‘You have accepted somebody’s friend request’”可知在聊天记录中，唯一的消息可能是系统通知，“你已接受某人的好友请求”，即在加了好友之后几乎就不聊天了。故选D。 3．词义猜测题。根据“You would have thought about unfriending this type of ‘friends’ and sort out your connections. But actually you did not do that as you were taught that social networking (建立关系网) is valuable to one’s success”可知你可能会考虑解除这种类型的“朋友”的好友关系，并整理你的关系，但事实上，你并没有这样做，因为你被教导社交网络对一个人的成功很有价值，故此处that指代“删除微信上不熟悉的朋友”。故选A。 4．推理判断题。根据“But the fact is that deep emotional (情绪的) connections do not come with the increasing number of your friends on social media.”可知社交媒体上越来越多的朋友并不会带来深厚的情感联系。故选D。 5．最佳标题题。本文主要介绍了在社交媒体上的好友数量并不会带来深厚的情感联系，研究表明150人是可以在网上保持稳定社交关系的人数上限，故文章的标题可为“人们在社交媒体上可以有多少朋友”。故选C。 （23-24九年级上·广东深圳·期中）Thanks to the hard work of companies like California­based Orbital Assembly Corporation (OAC), space tourism is well on its way to coming true. Now, the company is working to provide a chance for space visitors to “get out of the world” by checking into the world’s first true hotel in low Earth orbit (轨道). The Voyager Space Station (VSS) will be made up of two rings. The inside circle will be fitted with spacecraft stations for guests while the outside ring will house the rooms, restaurants, bars, gyms and scientific research labs. The hotel which is powered by the Sun will travel at high speed to create artificial (人造的) gravity, providing tourists with a comfortable stay. When completed, it will have rooms for up to 400 people. Though the idea is attractive, making VSS a reality will cost time and money. Moving the VSS to space will cost thousands of millions of dollars. However, OAC believes that they will recoup the money by asking $5 million per person for each 3­-day stay. Though the cost may seem too high, it is cheap compared to the 55 million it costs to stay on the ISS (International Space Station). Besides, guests at the VSS will be living in the greatest conditions (环境). “You’re going to have the top cooks,” OCA CEO John Blincow told the Washington Post. “There’ll be two shows every night as well.” Visitors will also be able to take part in the activities that are not possible on Earth such as spacewalks which allow visitors to admire views of the Earth and space. If everything goes according to plan, the company plans to start work in 2026 and welcome the first visitors in 2027. 1．What do we know about the Voyager Space Station? A．It will be powered by electricity. B．It will be made up of two squares. C．It can provide relaxing living conditions. D．It can travel fast to get away from Earth’s gravity. 2．What does the underlined word “recoup” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A．Pay off. B．Give away. C．Get back. D．Use up. 3．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A．Moving the VSS to space will cost much money. B．There will be labs in the inside circle of the VSS. C．The VSS plans to welcome the first visitors in 2026. D．The VSS will have rooms for no less than 400 people. 4．Why are John Blincow’s words mentioned in Paragraph 4? A．To speak highly of the hard work of ISS. B．To show the high­end service of the VSS. C．To stress the importance of exploring space. D．To describe what life will be like in the future. 5．What is the main idea of the passage? A．It costs lots of time and money to travel to space. B．Travelling to space has long been humans’ dream. C．Space tourism has been welcomed since its beginning. D．The world’s first space hotel hopes to welcome visitors. 【答案】1．C 2．C 3．A 4．B 5．D 【导语】本文主要介绍了一个公司正在努力为太空游客提供一个“走出世界”的机会，入住世界上第一家真正的近地轨道酒店。 1．细节理解题。根据“The hotel which is powered by the Sun will travel at high speed to create artificial (人造的) gravity, providing tourists with a comfortable stay”可知这家由太阳提供动力的酒店将高速旅行，创造人造引力，为游客提供舒适的住宿。故选C。 2．词义猜测题。根据“However, OAC believes that they will recoup the money by asking $5 million per person for each 3­-day stay”可知OAC相信他们会通过每人每住3天要价500万美元来收回这笔钱，故此处划线部分和get back意义相近。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据“Moving the VSS to space will cost thousands of millions of dollars.”可知将VSS转移到太空将花费数千万美元。故选A。 4．推理判断题。根据“You’re going to have the top cooks...There’ll be two shows every night as well”可知将拥有顶级厨师，每晚还有两场演出，故从他的话可以看出VSS的服务很好。故选B。 5．主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了一个公司正在努力为太空游客提供一个“走出世界”的机会，入住世界上第一家真正的近地轨道酒店。故选D。 （23-24九年级上·广东深圳·期中）In 2004, when my daughter Becky was ten, she and my husband, Joe, were united because they wanted a dog, Misty. And they promised to walk her every day. But from the second day, neither thought to walk the dog again. I was slow to accept that I would be the one to feed and clean her. As she looked up at the three new humans in her life, she calculated, “The middle-aged woman is the stupidest one.” Quickly, she and I developed something special. She’d look at me with those sad brown eyes of hers, and then wait, trusting I would understand her, which I almost always did.   Even so, part of me continued to hate the walking duty Joe and Becky had promised to carry out. It nearly drove me mad. “Not fair!” I’d loudly remind everyone I knew. On January 1, 2007, Joe’s doctor said an unthinkable word—leukemia (白血病). With that, I spent eight to ten hours a day with him in the hospital, doing anything and everything I could to ease his discomfort. Every part of my life changed; no part of my old life remained. Save one—Misty still needed walking. At the beginning, when my friends wanted to help walk her, I refused because I knew they were busy. As months went by, I began to realize that I actually wanted to walk Misty. The walk in the morning before I headed to the hospital was a quiet, peaceful time to clear my head. After Joe died in 2009, Misty slept on his pillow. The truth is, after these years, I’ve come to enjoy my walks with Misty. She reminded me that no matter how hard the present or unpredictable the future, there’s almost always some joy in my life. 1．What can be inferred (推断) from Paragraph 2? A．The writer was a slow learner. B．Misty was quite smart. C．Misty could solve math problems. D．No one walked Misty the first day. 2．What can we learn from Paragraphs 3 and 4? A．The writer always shouted at Misty while walking her. B．The writer loved Misty, but she didn’t want to walk her. C．The writer always hoped that Misty could understand her. D．The writer didn’t want to walk Misty because it cost time. 3．When did the story come to its turning point? A．When Joe fell ill in 2007. B．When Joe passed away in 2009. C．When Misty tried to please the writer. D．When the writer began to walk Misty. 4．Why did the writer continue to walk Misty while Joe was in hospital? A．Because her friends didn’t want to lend a hand. B．Because the walk provided her with great comfort. C．Because she didn’t want Misty to be others’ companion. D．Because she wanted to do some exercise in the morning. 5．What does the writer want to tell the readers in the passage? A．One should learn to enjoy hard times. B．A disaster can change everything in life. C．People will change when they are in difficulty. D．Moments of joy suggest that there is still hope ahead. 【答案】1．B 2．B 3．A 4．B 5．D 【导语】本文主要讲述了作者和狗Misty之间的经历。 1．推理判断题。根据“As she looked up at the three new humans in her life, she calculated, ‘The middle-aged woman is the stupidest one.’”可知，此处通过狗的心理活动表明了Misty很聪明，故选B。 2．推理判断题。根据“Even so, part of me continued to hate the walking duty Joe and Becky had promised to carry out.”可知，作者和狗发展出了情感，但是还是不怎么愿意遛狗，故选B。 3．细节理解题。根据“On January 1, 2007, Joe’s doctor said an unthinkable word—leukemia (白血病).”可知，作者的丈夫生病后，是故事的转折点，故选A。 4．细节理解题。根据“The walk in the morning before I headed to the hospital was a quiet, peaceful time to clear my head.”可知，去医院之前的散步是一段安静、平和的时间，可以安慰一下作者。故选B。 5．细节理解题。根据“She reminded me that no matter how hard the present or unpredictable the future, there’s almost always some joy in my life.”可知，论现在多么艰难，未来多么不可预测，我们的生活中几乎总会有一些快乐。故选D。 （23-24九年级上·广东深圳·期中）There are many famous people from ancient and modern times, both in China and abroad.
