But Frank never forgot the frozen treat (冰品) that he had discovered. He decided to continue with it. He soon started a business—selling the frozen treats in seven flavours (口味).

The UK government has made plans to ban (禁止) the sale of energy drinks to kids. It is now asking for public suggestions about what age the ban should start at (16 or 18), the BBC reported. An energy drink is a kind of drink that has stimulants (兴奋剂), such as caffeine. Red Bull is one of the most famous energy drinks. The makers of these drinks say that they can give you energy when you feel tired. However, these drinks have very high levels of sugar and caffeine.

It’s important that we do all we can do to make sure children have the best start in life,” UK Prime Minister Theresa May said in a statement. The ban would apply to (应用于) drinks having more than 150 mg of caffeine per liter.

It is made up of thousands of stone jars. More than 90 jar sites have been found there. Each site has from 1 to 400 stone jars. The jars come in different sizes from 1 to 3 meters tall. Scientists have long been perplexed by their original (最初的) use. Not long ago, scientists found ancient things and burial (埋葬的) practices at the Plain of Jars. “This will be the first major effort since the 1930s to try to understand the purpose of the jars and who created them.” Dougald O’Reilly from the Australian National University said. “The jars are empty now, but it is possible that they were once used to hold bodies.” Only a few simple objects, such as a handful of glass beads (玻璃珠), have been found at the burial sites. And scientists think they are from about 500 or 600 BC to 550 AD． An Australia-Laos research team spent a month collecting data (资料) at the site. O’Reilly said, “Though the stone jars remain a mystery (谜), I hope a better understanding of the Plain of Jars will help have it listed as a World Heritage site (世界遗产保护区).” 36．The Plain of Jars is in ________.

People turned off the lights in the city’s tallest buildings after midnight so that thousands of birds could get to their winter homes. Every year in autumn, some birds fly over Chicago on their way to the south, and come back the next spring. Lights mean danger to birds. Birds find their way by looking at the stars in the sky. Lights in tall buildings are so bright that birds may mistake them as stars. This means they can not find the right way to go back home. It’s a pity that a lot of birds even die from lights. This month, about 300 kinds of birds are flying over Chicago to go back to the south to live through the cold winter. Birds fly to warmer places for a few reasons. Many birds cannot live in the cold, so they fly to warmer places. But there are other reasons, too. Birds need to look for food in the south. Another reason is that they want to have baby birds. Many birds like to have their baby birds in the same “house” they lived in last year, so they fly back there. At the same time, birds give their young a better chance of growing up, avoid being eaten by predators (捕食者) .         There are about 9, 000 kinds of birds in the world, and about 600 kinds of birds migrate. Some birds can fly a very long way. Sometimes they fly to other countries. We have fewer birds today because there are fewer places for birds. 36．Why did people in Chicago turn off their lights last week? A．Because they wanted to save money. B．Because they liked the dark night. C．Because they were afraid that birds would make much noise. D．Because they were afraid that birds would lose their home way. 37．How do birds find their way? A．By looking at lights in the city. B．By looking at the stars in the sky. C．By following light from the sun. D．By looking at trees on the road. 38．The underlined word “migrate” means ________ in Chinese. A．重生 B．定居 C．迁徙 D．冬眠 39．Which of the following statements is NOT true? A．All birds fly to warmer places every year. B．Some birds have to fly to warmer places in autumn. C．Some birds can fly a long way to other countries D．About 600 kinds of birds migrate in the world. 40．What is the best title of the passage?

More than half of the teenagers feel sad at least once a month. When you are sad, it feels like it will last for a long time. However, the feeling of sadness usually doesn’t last very long—a few hours or maybe a day or two. When you are sad, the world seems dark and unfriendly. Many times, you cry and it’s hard to stop. Crying usually makes you feel better. When sadness starts to go away, it feels like a heavy stone (石头) is lifted from your heart. You’ll feel relaxed. If sad feelings go on for too long, it’s called depression (抑郁症). Children who have depression may not know it. Often, a parent or a teacher knows the changes of them. When depression happens, it’s important for children to get treatment. When they do, they can get better quickly. Sometimes it means talking to someone who knows about depression. Sometimes it means taking medicine. Sometimes both of these things are used. If you think you have depression, or you just have sadness that will not go away, it’s important to talk to a parent or a teacher. He or she can help you find the right way of treatment. 51．How long may sadness usually last? A．A day or two. B．A week. C．A month. D．A year. 52．How may you feel when sadness begins to go away?

And it became a hit with his friends. When he grew up, Frank Epperson sold land and houses for a living. By 1921 he had to make a living for his wife and five children.

The UK government has made plans to ban (禁止) the sale of energy drinks to kids. It is now asking for public suggestions about what age the ban should start at (16 or 18), the BBC reported. An energy drink is a kind of drink that has stimulants (兴奋剂), such as caffeine. Red Bull is one of the most famous energy drinks. The makers of these drinks say that they can give you energy when you feel tired. However, these drinks have very high levels of sugar and caffeine. Energy drinks have 65 percent more sugar than normal soft drinks. This may explain why obesity rate (肥胖率) have risen among children. Too much caffeine can lead to (导致) health problems, such as headaches and sleeplessness. A 250 ml can of Red Bull has about 80 mg caffeine, three times the level of a can of Coca-Cola, BBC noted. In the UK, more than two-thirds of 10 to 17-year-olds buy energy drinks, according to the government. “Childhood obesity is one of the greatest health Challenge (挑战) this country faces. It’s important that we do all we can do to make sure children have the best start in life,” UK Prime Minister Theresa May said in a statement. The ban would apply to (应用于) drinks having more than 150 mg of caffeine per liter. Under the ban, shops in England that sell the drinks to children would face fines of £ 2,500 (22,070 yuan). 36．From the first paragraph, we can learn that__________.

It is made up of thousands of stone jars. More than 90 jar sites have been found there. Each site has from 1 to 400 stone jars. The jars come in different sizes from 1 to 3 meters tall. Scientists have long been perplexed by their original (最初的) use. Not long ago, scientists found ancient things and burial (埋葬的) practices at the Plain of Jars. “This will be the first major effort since the 1930s to try to understand the purpose of the jars and who created them.” Dougald O’Reilly from the Australian National University said. “The jars are empty now, but it is possible that they were once used to hold bodies.” Only a few simple objects, such as a handful of glass beads (玻璃珠), have been found at the burial sites. And scientists think they are from about 500 or 600 BC to 550 AD． An Australia-Laos research team spent a month collecting data (资料) at the site.

People turned off the lights in the city’s tallest buildings after midnight so that thousands of birds could get to their winter homes. Every year in autumn, some birds fly over Chicago on their way to the south, and come back the next spring. Lights mean danger to birds. Birds find their way by looking at the stars in the sky. Lights in tall buildings are so bright that birds may mistake them as stars. This means they can not find the right way to go back home. It’s a pity that a lot of birds even die from lights. This month, about 300 kinds of birds are flying over Chicago to go back to the south to live through the cold winter. Birds fly to warmer places for a few reasons. Many birds cannot live in the cold, so they fly to warmer places. But there are other reasons, too. Birds need to look for food in the south. Another reason is that they want to have baby birds. Many birds like to have their baby birds in the same “house” they lived in last year, so they fly back there. At the same time, birds give their young a better chance of growing up, avoid being eaten by predators (捕食者) .         There are about 9, 000 kinds of birds in the world, and about 600 kinds of birds migrate. Some birds can fly a very long way. Sometimes they fly to other countries. We have fewer birds today because there are fewer places for birds. 36．Why did people in Chicago turn off their lights last week? A．Because they wanted to save money. B．Because they liked the dark night. C．Because they were afraid that birds would make much noise. D．Because they were afraid that birds would lose their home way. 37．How do birds find their way? A．By looking at lights in the city. B．By looking at the stars in the sky. C．By following light from the sun. D．By looking at trees on the road. 38．The underlined word “migrate” means ________ in Chinese. A．重生 B．定居 C．迁徙 D．冬眠 39．Which of the following statements is NOT true? A．All birds fly to warmer places every year. B．Some birds have to fly to warmer places in autumn. C．Some birds can fly a long way to other countries D．About 600 kinds of birds migrate in the world. 40．What is the best title of the passage? A．Lights Out Plan B．Turn off the Lights C．Different Kinds of Birds D．Migration of Birds 【答案】 36．D 37．B 38．C 39．A 40．D 【导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了芝加哥加入“关灯计划”以帮助鸟类迁徙，以及鸟类迁徙的相关信息。 36．推理判断题。根据第一段“People turned off the lights in the city’s tallest buildings after midnight so that thousands of birds could get to their winter homes.”和第二段“Birds find their way by looking at the stars in the sky. Lights in tall buildings are so bright that birds may mistake them as stars. This means they can not find the right way to go back home.”可推知，芝加哥人上周关闭电灯是因为他们害怕鸟儿会迷失回家的路，故选D。 37．细节理解题。根据第二段“Birds find their way by looking at the stars in the sky.”可知，小鸟通过看天空中的星星来找路，故选B。 38．词义猜测题。根据最后一段“Some birds can fly a very long way. Sometimes they fly to other countries.”可知，有些小鸟可以飞很远的路，有时它们会飞到其他国家去，结合选项可推测，migrate意为“迁徙”，故选C。 39．细节理解题。根据第三段“Many birds cannot live in the cold, so they fly to warmer places.”可知，很多鸟类不能居住在寒冷的地方，因此它们会飞去更温暖的地方过冬，但不是所有的鸟类都会飞去更温暖的地方过冬，所有选项A“所有的鸟每年都会飞去更温暖的地方”表述错误，故选A。 40．标题归纳题。通读全文可知，本文主要讲述了鸟类迁徙的相关信息，所以选项D“鸟类的迁徙”是最佳标题，故选D。 天津市部分区2023-2024学年九年级上学期期末英语试题 四、阅读理解 （A） Everyone gets sad.
