In 1849 gold was 1 in California. Thousands of people rushed to California in hopes of finding gold and becoming 2 . The people hoping to find gold were foolish and greedy. One of those 3 headed for California was Levi Strauss. Strauss was 4 . Strauss was a clever, hard-working man. He was looking for a new start in life. Up to this time, Strauss had worked for his two brothers in New York City. The brothers sold clothes and blankets and other goods. Strauss planned to set up a similar business to his 5 in California. Over the years, Strauss’s business grew. In 1872 he got a letter from one of his customers, a tailor (裁缝) in Nevada. The tailor, Jacob Davis, had a(n) 6 for making better work pants. The pockets on work pants often tore. Jacob Davis 7 metal rivets (铆钉) to the pockets. Rivets are pieces of metal 8 to join things together. The rivets worked well, and the miners liked them. Davis didn’t have enough money to get a patent (专利) for his 9 . He also needed help making the pants. In his 10 , Davis said that if they worked together, the two of them ‘‘could make a very large amount of money’’. Strauss could see that riveted work pants were a good idea. He agreed to help Davis. The two decided to make the pants. They decided to use denim cloth because it is a 11 cloth that doesn’t tear easily and is long lasting. 12 , the riveted denims were called ‘‘dungarees’’. Dungarees is a word from the Hindi 13 of India that means “rough cloth”. 14 they were tough and durable, dungarees were worn by thousands of farmers, miners, builders, and other workers. Later, dungarees came to be called “jeans”. “Jeans” is a better 15 for the pants than “dungarees”. 1．A．discovered B．created C．invented D．hidden 2．A．wealthy B．happy C．satisfied D．energetic 3．A．whom B．who C．which D．what 4．A．creative B．foolish C．smart D．different 5．A．brother B．brothers C．brothers’ D．brother’s 6．A．job B．business C．idea D．opportunity 7．A．preferred B．added C．changed D．returned 8．A．used B．worked C．made D．sold 9．A．discovery B．invention C．creation D．business 10．A．diary B．letter C．book D．invitation 11．A．heavy B．strong C．usual D．cheap 12．A．In addition B．Instead C．At first D．However 13．A．culture B．city C．language D．clothes 14．A．If B．When C．Because D．Though 15．A．meaning B．business C．call D．name 二、阅读理解（共 ２０小题，每小题 ２分，满分 ４０分） A VOLUNTEERS WANTED   Hainan, China If you are: 22—40 years old Free from February 13th to March 15th & able to ▶ teach ▶ take care of children ▶ organize international meetings ▶ or speak Chinese & English Please contact us by calling 777-458 Please join us and take part in our activities   New Delhi.

B How did people tell the time before clocks were invented? At first, the ancient people looked up at the sun and could tell it was the middle of the day when the sun was directly overhead in the sky. They also knew when it was morning or evening. Later, the Egyptians (埃及人) used sticks. These sticks measured (测量) time during the day. The sun shone on the tall stick and the stick made a shadow (阴影). As the sun moved across the sky, the position (位置) of the shadow changed. This would let people tell what time it was. Over time, the Chinese first used sundials (日晷) instead of shadow sticks. The sundial has a type of shadow stick on it. As the sun shines on it, a shadow appears on the numbers. Each number stands for an hour of the day. But sundials don’t work at night or on a cloudy day! There are no shadows unless the sun is out. Water clocks used water to measure time at night. Water dripped (滴落) slowly from one bowl into another. The level of the water in the bowls showed the time. People also used sand-glasses. You may have seen one. Some games still use sand-glasses. The sand falls from the top of the sand-glasses to the bottom. It measures short amounts of the time. The more sand falls, the more time has passed. When the sand has finished falling, you have to turn the sand-glasses over. 21．According to the passage, the Egyptians used ________ to tell the time. A．sticks B．water clocks C．sand-glasses D．sundials 22．Sundials can be used to tell the time when it is ________. A．snowy B．rainy C．cloudy D．sunny 23．What can we know from the passage? A．Each number stands for two hours of the day when using a sundial. B．At night, people can use water clocks to measure time. C．When you use sand-glasses, the more sand falls, it means the less time has passed. D．The ancient people told the time by looking at the moon. 24．What does this passage mainly talk about? A．How to tell the time by looking at the sun. B．Something about sundials. C．How to tell the time before clocks were invented. D．Some inventions in China. 25．Where can we probably find the passage? A．In a poem. B．In a dictionary. C．In a diary. D．In a science magazine. C Once, there lived a washer man named Bheema. He had a donkey (驴) and a horse. The donkey carried clothes to the pond (池塘) and back to his house. The horse sometimes carried Bheena to the market and back. On a bright sunny day, Bheema was going to the pond with the donkey. He took the horse along to give it a drink of water. The donkey was carrying a heavy bundle (捆) of clothes. The horse was carrying nothing. The load was unusually heavy and the donkey’s back was hurting. When the pain became unbearable, the donkey said to the horse, “This bundle of clothes is too much for me, brother! Please take some clothes on your back.” The horse answered rudely, “Eh! Why should I? It’s none of my business.” The proud horse continued on his way. It was getting hotter as the day went on. The donkey felt totally exhausted (精疲力尽的). He tried to move but just could not. The poor donkey collapsed (昏倒) to the ground. The washer man felt very sorry. Immediately he took the load of the donkey and gave some water to the donkey. The donkey felt better now. The washer man then picked up the whole bundle of clothes and placed it on the horses back. “Umf! Umf!” A cry came from the horse’s mouth. “The load is so heavy. I should have helped the donkey. I was wrong just now. I should have taken half the load when the donkey asked me. Now I realize sharing a burden (负担) is easier.” 26．Why did Bheema take the horse along to the pond on that sunny day? A．To let it help the donkey. B．To let it carry him. C．To let it carry clothes. D．To let it drink water. 27．The underlined word “unbearable” means “________” in Chinese. A．可接受的 B．无法忍受的 C．不可置信的 D．令人兴奋的 28．Which of the following is NOT true? A．On that day, the horse carried nothing at first. B．The donkey wanted to share the burden with the horse. C．The horse could carry the bundle of clothes easily. D．The man put the whole bundle of clothes on the horse’s back at last. 29．The horse felt ________ at the end of the story. A．regretful B．happy C．angry D．excited 30．What can we learn from the story? A．Actions speaker louder than words. B．God helps those who help themselves. C．All things are difficult before they are easy. D．Helping others is helping yourself. D In today’s Internet age, slang terms (俚语) are appearing everywhere, making our communication more fun and rich. Here are a few examples. 1. “ kěyǐ méi huó, bù néng bù zhěng huó” “ 31 ” “zhěng huó” means creating fun content (内容), showing skills, or doing creative activities to make things lively or catch attention. 2. “yyds” “yyds” stands for “yǒng yuǎn de shén”, meaning “forever a god.” It shows strong admiration for someone or something. For example, if an player does really well, fans might say, “This player is yyds.” 32 3.“Pò Fáng Le” “Pò Fáng Le” used to mean getting past the other player’s guard in a game. Now, it means someone’s emotional guard has been broken. 33 4. “Fán ěr sài Wénxué” “Fán ěr sài Wénxué” describes a way of speaking that appears humble (谦虚的) but is actually bragging (夸耀). 34 For example, saying, “I’ve been worried; I’ve gained weight and am almost 90 jin” (which could be showing off about not losing weight). These slang terms show a social trend (趋势) and add humor. 35 However, we should use these terms carefully to avoid overusing them. By understanding these terms, we can see how society and people’s feelings change. In this fast-changing online world, slang will keep developing, adding more color and energy to our language and culture. 根据短文内容，将下面的选项还原到文中空白处，使短文内容完整、通顺。(每个选项只能用一次，有一项是多余的) A．People might share their good life or talents in a special way. B．This term is clear and popular for expressing love and respect for someone. C．They provide an interesting way to communicate online, letting people share and connect with each other. D．Actually, we should use these slangs in proper situations. E．“méi huó” means having no creativity or interesting things to show. F．This shows that a person is deeply touched, whether by sadness, surprise, or something moving. 三、选词填空（共 10小题，每小题 1分，满分 １０分） 阅读下面短文，用括号内所给词汇的适当形式填空，使短文语义完整。 add  important  for  environment  difficult  address  speaker  whom  feel  because When you visit a foreign country, how do you ask for help in a way that will make others 36 comfortable? Different countries have different habits. We should do better when we’re in a new 37 . Knowing how to ask for help politely is 38 . For example, you may ask, “Where are the restrooms?” or “Could you please tell me where the restrooms are?” Both of them are requests for directions, but the second one sounds more polite. That’s 39 the first one is a very direct question. Smart English 40 change the way they talk in different situations. The expressions they use depend on 41 they are speaking to. If you ask people questions that you know well, you can ask some direct questions. However, it is impolite to speak too directly when talking to the elders or strangers. It is necessary 42 a language learner to learn polite expressions. It might seem 43 to speak politely than directly. Usually polite questions are longer, and you can 44 expressions, such as “Could you please …?” or “May I ask ...?” When you solve this problem, you may find that your language skills will improve greatly. Maybe next time you can say, “Hello, could you please tell me your e-mail 45 ?” 四、任务型阅读（共 5小题，每小题 2分，满分 １０分） 阅读短文, 并按要求完成下列小题。 These days a discussion about English learning becomes a hot topic. Xu Jin, a national political adviser, said that English should not be a main subject like Chinese and math. More course hours should be given to improve students’ skills in physical education, music and art. He thought English took up about 10 percent of class hours, but less than 10 percent of university students use the language at work. It was a waste of educational resources and students felt great burden (负担) on their shoulders. Moreover, smart devices (设备) can offer translation services and in the age of AI, translators will be among the top 10 professions to be eliminated (淘汰), he added. Some people agreed with his opinion and said they had wasted too much time studying English at school because they didn’t use it in their daily lives. They thought it should be better to spend more time learning Chinese language and culture. However, Zhang Lianzhong, a professor at Beijing Foreign Studies University, said it was wise to make English a compulsory course (必修课) from third grade in 2001. Students can open their mind and improve their language ability through leaning English. English teachers should also focus more on improving students’ language skills, not exam-taking ability. 1-2题完成句子；3-5题简略回答问题。 46．According to Xu Jin, English took up . 47．In the age of AI, will be among the top 10 professions to be eliminated (淘汰). 48．Why did some people think they had wasted too much time studying English at school? 49．When did English become a compulsory course? 50．Should English be a main subject like Chinese and math?

Because students can open their mind and improve their language ability through learning English.  How time flies! It’s over two months since I became a student in Grade Nine. I find that there are many changes during two months.         First, we started to learn chemistry as soon as we were in Grade Nine. It is new and a little difficult. To learn all the subjects better, the ways to learn had to change too. For example, we need to understand knowledge that we have learned. Only memorizing isn’t enough. We must learn to use it too. Just because of new challenges, I am growing up and have made progress in many ways.      Second, I used to argue with my parents. Now I can understand them and know they really care about me. I also get along better and better with my classmates now. Even I make friends with my teachers. They often help me when I have problems studying. I am getting happier and happier though I am very tired every day.      I need to find a better way to learn chemistry well. I believe I can be a better version of myself. 试卷第1页，共3页 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
