She put on her clothes,picked up her baseball glove and talked to herself,“I hope I get a hit today.” Emma was a great hitter in practice,but she had never hit a ball during an always struck out(三振出局). 初二英语试卷第4页(共10页) 密 封 内 不 要 答 题 On the way to the field,Emma kept her head down and was silent(默不作声). “Are you feeling okay,Emma?”her mom asked. “I really don't want to strike out,”Emma said. “Don't worry!Just keep your eye on the ball.You can do it,”Emma's mom said. When the game started,Emma cheered loudly for her teammates.She caught a fly ball in the outfield to make an out,and everyone cheered for her.Emma struck out when it was her turn to bat(击球) ,but her team was doing well. The game was tied(平局) ,and it was her team's last chance( 机 会 )to score.Frankie was up first.He hit the ball hard and ran to third base quickly. That meant he could score and win the game if the next batter got a good hit.Next up was Henry,and then Kara,but they both struck out.Emma was next up. Emma could feel all the eyes on her as she went up to the plate.She closed her eyes and swung hard,but missed. “Keep your eye on the ball,Emma!”her mom called from the stands( 看 台). Emma nodded and went back into the batter's box.This time she kept her eyes wide open and took a deep breath before she swung the bat. Crack!Emma hit the ball!Frankie ran home and they won! “Great game,everyone!”said Emma's coach later.“Here is your trophy.” Emma held the shiny trophy high in the air.She felt very proud(骄傲的)of her whole team.Most of all,she couldn't wait to show her mom the big trophy. 24.Emma was good at when she practiced baseball.

You probably know that the world's fastest animal is the cheetah(猎豹) . Cheetahs can run at about 120 kilometers an hour.However,they can only run at that speed( 速 度 )for about 60 seconds.When cheetahs are running at that speed,they spend more time in the air than on the ground. 初二英语试卷第5页(共10页) The largest animal in the world is the blue whale.Here's an interesting fact about these giant animals.They aren't just the largest species(物种)right now. They are the largest animals that have ever existed( 存 在 )on the earth.Blue whales are about 38 meters long,and they weigh around 170 tons.Blue whales eat about 3,600 kilograms of food every day. Of course,the smartest animals in the world are humans.The second smartest animal is the chimpanzee(黑猩猩) .Chimps can make tools and build things.They can also solve( 解 决 )problems.Some scientists have ever taught chimps sign language.Sign language is using your hands to make words and communicate(交流) .Other very smart animals are dolphins and parrots. Most people believe that tortoises live the longest.It's true that tortoises live longer than other animals on land.The oldest tortoises that we know about died at the age of 188.However,some ocean animals live longer.Some koi,a kind of goldfish,can live for more than 200 years.There's even a kind of jellyfish that can change its cells(细胞)and make them new again.This means that whenever the jellyfish gets old and weak,it can make itself young again!The nickname of this jellyfish is“immortal jellyfish” . The most poisonous(有毒的)animal is also a jellyfish.In the last 60 years, box jellyfish have killed more than 5,500 people.If a person is stung by a box jellyfish,he or she must get help at once.Otherwise,that person's chance of survival(存活)is almost zero. 27.What can we know from the passage?

D.Some of the most amazing animals on the earth. 初二英语试卷第6页(共10页) D Sometimes,city streets are jammed(拥堵)with cars and buses crowded with people.Take a closer look,and you might see quite a few people riding their bicycles to work or school.The number of bikes has more than tripled(番三倍) over the last twenty years.All over the world,the factories build three times more bikes than cars. Why do so many Americans like to ride bikes?Biking is a fun way to get outdoors and to exercise.More people have found out that on a bike,they can get in good shape and get where they need to go at the same time.In fact,nearly five million Americans usually go to work on their bicycles. Two major bike-to-work cities are Tucson,Arizona,and San Diego, California.In these areas,warm weather makes year-round biking possible.To our surprise,rainy Seattle,Washington has the second highest number of bicycle users in the country. All the cities are taking the competition to make the ride easier.More bike riders mean fewer cars.Fewer cars mean less of a need for new roads.Creating bike path or“Bike Only”lanes(带)on street is far less expensive than building roads. Governments( 政 府 )in Portland,Oregon,came up with a special idea. They wanted to encourage( 鼓 励 ) people to bike around the town instead of driving cars.So the city rounded up used bikes that people would have just thrown away.They got them repaired(修理)and painted them yellow.Then they put the yellow bikes around the city and spread(扩散)the world that they were free for anyone to use.When borrowers reach the place where they plan to go,they just leave the bike for someone else.People are riding the bikes all over the Portland. The public bike stations are growing quickly as more people offer their old bikes. Will your town be next?About 50 cities have asked Portland how to start their own public pedal-power program! All of these healthy bikers help create a healthier environment(环境) . When it comes to planet-friendly modes of transportation(交通模式),you can't beat a bike.Unlike cars,bikes burn no fossil fuels(燃料)and it can make the air cleaner.So far,computer-aided design and new technologies( 技 术 )have helped create a new type of bicycles that make riding safer,easier,and a lot more fun. 初二英语试卷第7页(共10页) 30.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A.More and more people are using bikes to exercise in the open air. B.It's easy for the people in big cities to buy bikes at the lowest price. C.The weather is very fine for riding bikes in Seattle all the year round. D.American people usually ride bikes to keep away from the traffic jams. 31.The bike riders in America find out that A.taking a car is more expensive than riding a bike in most of the countries B.it's much safer to ride on the bike path or“Bike Only”lane in the cities C.cycling makes them have a good health and travel around the city easily D.it's necessary for everyone to paint bikes yellow and follow the traffic rules 32.From the passage,many cities in America are trying to A.ask people to travel around by public transportation B.learn from Portland to start the pedal-power program C.create new types of cars to take the place of old ones D.build more sports centers to help keep people's health 33.What's the writer's main purpose in writing this passage?密 封 线 内 不 要 答 题 A.To tell the reasons why so many Americans like riding bikes.

When Benissan was a child,he didn't have enough money to buy a musical instrument(乐器) ,so he called on his creativity.He brought an empty coffee can,a string(弦)from a bicycle,and a bow-shaped stick(棒) .He tried to make his own instrument by hand.He began to make a hole( 孔 )in the bottom of the coffee can for the string to go through.Then he tied each end of the string to his 初二英语试卷第8页(共10页) 学 校 班级 姓名 准考证号 密 封 线 内 不 要 答 题 wooden bow.When he played it,he sat on the floor with the can between his legs,and strummed(弹拨)the string with his fingers.The sound he made was beautiful. Benissan uses drums of many shapes(形状)and sizes when he plays.Those different drums,he says,make up a family.His drum family has a father,a mother,an older brother,a daughter,twins,and a baby brother.In Togo, people add a bell( 钟 )to the drum family.These instruments,Benissan says,give music its heartbeat. When the drum family works together,it makes a composition(乐曲)more beautiful than any of the instrument can make alone.Benissan believes that the same idea works for people. “As a member of a community( 社 区 ) in Africa,everybody is very important,”Benissan says.“Whether you are small or big,you can do a good job for the whole group.” Music plays an important role in Togo,which is a country of more than five million people.A master musician in Togo is a performer,a teacher,a historian, a doctor,and a voice for the community.The people of Togo use music to understand and connect to(联接)the past,back to the first musicians centuries ago. Not everyone in Togo can be a master musician like Benissan,but the most Togolese also make music a part of everyday life.When there is a community project to finish,such as building a school,people throughout the community join the work.They come not just with tools(工具)but with instruments and songs. So the music comes together with the work and brings happiness and enjoyment to the task. 34.Why did Benissan create his own instruments? 35.How many instruments are there in the drum family in Togo? 36.What does Benissan ask the people to do for the whole community? 37.Which do you think is more enjoyable,working with music or working only with the tools?Why?(at least two sentences) 初二英语试卷第9页(共10页) 五、文段表达(10分) 38.从下面两个题目中任选一题，根据所给中文和英文提示，完成一篇不少于 50词的英语文段写作。文中已给出内容不计入总词数。所给提示词语仅 供选用。请不要写出你的真实校名和姓名。 ( 题目① ) 假如你是李华，你的笔友 Peter想了解你校上个月开展的“品味中华 美食，传承中华文化”为主题的校园美食节活动情况，请以回复邮件的方 式与他分享本次活动的过程和感受。 提示词语：introduce,traditional,taste,watch,learn 内容提示：①What activities did you have in your school dining hall? ② How did you feel about this Food Festival?
