A young man comes to you and asks for directions. You happen to be going in the same direction. What would you do? You have some choices. First, you may say nothing, just lead him to the place. Second, you may tell him the way and take a different way yourself. Third, tell him that you are going the same way and can go together with him. Your different choices may show different personalities. If you choose the first one, it means you only care about your own feelings. If you choose the second one, it means you are hardly strong-minded. When someone asks you for help, you may feel worried. How about the third choice? If you choose this one, it means you are good at catching any possible chance. You often show respect to others and tend to be responsible and caring.

During the Qing dynasty, kicking a stone ball around was a popular game in the northern part of China, and it was often played in winter to keep warm. In 1999, the sport was included in the competition item in the 6th National Ethnic Group Traditional Sports Meeting held in Beijing. It is a traditional game for children to play hide-and-seek. There are two ways to play: One covers a child’s eyes while other kids run around to tease him or, more commonly, others hide and one child must try to find them. Flying kites was popular around the nation. Kites have quite a long history. The earliest kites were made of wood instead of paper or metal. Nowadays, the three most famous kites are the Beijing kite, Tianjin kite and Weifang kite. Each has its own feature. For example, the swallow-shaped kite is a well-known Beijing style. The closest thing to seeing a film during ancient times was going to watch shadow plays. The artists control puppets behind the screen and tell stories to the music. 1~5BBCCA 6~10ABBCA 11~15ABCAA 16~20CBBCA 21~25:AACCA 26~30DCDBB 31~35:BDBCD 36~40BAADC 41~45BCAAD 46~48ADC 49~52DCBD 53~56ACAC 57~60 BDBA 61~65 EFCAB 66 to interview 67 pleasant 68 matters 69 national70 earlier 71 are given72 have become73 truly 74 difficulties 75 proving 76.

The Journey of Growth Growing up is a process that everyone goes through. In my journey of growth, I have learnt a great deal. When I was young, I was so shy that I couldn't talk with others freely and loudly. But as I grow, I learn to face fear bravely and am willing to make some new friends.( In Grade 7, I was afraid of trying something new. However, with my friends' encouragement, I have become more and more confident. And I'm glad to take on new challenges any time.) When I have difficulty achieving the balance between hobbies and schoolwork. I often ask my teachers for help. First, I make a list of things I need to do and work out how much free time I have. Then I choose my hobbies according to the time. I can manage time better and get more organized. Looking back, I realize that growth is not just about getting taller and older. It's about facing difficulties bravely and learning to depend on ourselves. Also, it helps us learn to make ourselves more valuable and be a better person. Growth is like a path with ups and downs, but I'm ready for it. 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 $$null 2024-2025学年度第一学期第三阶段学业质量联合测试 九年级英语试题 （考试时间135分钟，总分140分） 命题：胡集初中 莫明凤 初审：蔡连梅 复审：隆政初中 杨云 第Ⅰ卷（选择题 共 85 分） 一、听力测试（本大题共20 分，每小题1分，满分20分） 第一部分 听对话回答问题。本部分共有10道小题，每小题你将听到一段对话，每段对话听两遍。 ( )1.

It joined talking and singing together in the local language. It was called xiaogeban(小歌班). Farmers acted out and sang the unusual events of the day and legends (传说) of long ago. At the turn of the 20th century, xiaogeban spread to Shanghai. However, its actors were often laughed at by the locals. This finally led to the creation of Yue opera. The new art form was more formal (正式的) than xiaogeban. It borrowed ideas from other operatic traditions and started using carefully-made sets (布景), costumes and music. Yue opera actors are good at expressing emotions through singing. The romantic stories performed by women attracted more audiences. Over time, the art form became female-dominate(女性主导的). Today, male roles in Yue opera are often taken by female actors. Here follows some of the most famous stories in Yue opera. The Butterfly Lovers (《梁祝》) The Butterfly Lovers. or Liang Zhu, tells the story of Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai. It is a tale of love, devotion and fight. The Yue opera version of this tale is set in Zhejiang. It is one of the best-known versions of the story and was even made into a hit movie in 1953. The Story of the Western Wing(《西厢记》) This romantic story was written by Wang Shifu, a Yuan dynasty play writer, who tells the story of lovers Zhang Sheng and Cui Yingying. They fall in love with each other and try to run away from Yingying's mother. Peach Blossom Fan (《桃花扇》) This sad love story is set in the late Ming dynasty. It was written by Qing dynasty play writer Kong Shangren. In the story, a young scholar Hou Fangyu and courtesan(花魁) Li Xiangjun exchange a fan as a token (信物) of their love. Unfortunately for the two lovers, Hou has to leave the corrupt imperial court(腐败的朝廷) and a powerful official forces Li to marry another man. 46. What does the writer want to tell us in Para. 1-2? A. The origin (起源) of Yue opera. B. The popularity of Yue opera. C.The audience (观众) of Yue opera. D. The achievements of Yue opera. 47. Which of the following statements is true? A. Yue opera was women-dominated at first. B.Yue opera was created in Yuan dynasty. C. Xiaogeban actors were popular in Shanghai. D. There are few male Yue opera actors today. 48. What can we learn about the three most famous stories in Yue opera according to the passage? A. They were created in the same dynasty. B. They all had a happy ending. C. They all told stories of two lovers. D. They were made into films in 1950s. B Scientists have come up with a new way of identifying (识别) animals in an area-by testing DNA in the air. The researchers believe their new method could help scientists keep track of (跟踪) animals that are hard to spot, including endangered animals. Two teams of scientists--one in Denmark and one in the United Kingdom---came up with the same question at about the same time: Could they identify the animals in an area from DNA that was simply floating in the air? Every living thing has DNA that can be used to identify it. They leave bits of DNA behind them wherever they go. DNA left behind like this is called “environmental”DNA, or eDNA. Scientists can use it to tell what kinds of animals are in a certain place. ① But most of the time, scientists look for eDNA in water. Neither team knew that the other group was working on a similar experiment. One collected samples from different locations at Denmark's Copenhagen Zoo, and the other at Hamerton Zoo Park in the UK. The scientists used slightly (稍微) different methods to collect their samples. But basically, both teams used vacuums (真空吸尘器) and fans to collect tiny bits of DNA. In the laboratory, by comparing(对比) their samples with examples of DNA from different animals, the scientists were able to identify many different animals at the zoos. The scientists chose to test in zoos because they had rare animals not naturally found in the area. Each team only discovered about the other experiment after they had written a paper about their own results. The two decided to combine (合并) their results and publish a paper together. Both teams are excited about the ways this new method could be used in the wild. The researchers believe the method could help scientists a lot. Scientists have been looking for better ways to track endangered animals without interfering (干扰) with them. If researchers know where the animals live, they can do a better job of protecting them. The next step is to figure out how to take this method into nature. 49.What is the primary purpose of using eDNA according to the article? A. To prevent DNA of animals from floating in the air. B. To attract rare animals to zoos for better protection. C. To save endangered animals away from all the diseases. D. To identify animals by testing DNA found in the air. 50. Which of the following is TRUE about the two teams of scientists? A. They knew each other very well before. B. They found more rare animals for zoos. C. They worked together to publish a paper. D. They used quite different methods to collect DNA. 51. Which sentence is suitable for ① ? A. It happened at different countries B. Testing for eDNA isn't a new idea C. Bits of DNA is too small to see in the air D. The scientists didn't have high hope for the experiment 52.What is the article mainly about? A.Proper ways of studying rare animals. B.Differences between DNA and eDNA. C.Challenges of protecting endangered animals. D.The eDNA Testing for Animal Identification. C Reading and writing Chinese characters(汉字) is often considered the most ambitious challenge that language learners face in order to achieve fluency (流利).Indeed, the process which has shaped this character system over thousands of years is both complex (复杂的) and long. Although they may appear bewildering at first, Chinese characters are actually made up of different building blocks (块) that form a straight and reasonable structure. Once you catch a basic understanding of the structure of Chinese characters, you will be reading and writing your way across the kingdom of Chinese characters in no time. Read the following and continue along your journey to learn Chinese characters. Unlike the Roman alphabet(字母),Chinese characters are used to show meaning rather than sound. In fact, most characters were firstly used as visual (视觉的) descriptions of physical elements like trees, houses or humans. Their earliest forms, simplified versions of these symbols, known as character radicals (偏旁), serve as the foundation for modern written Mandarin(普通话). Making up about 80% of the Chinese characters, radicals--in addition to Chinese pinyin-are an important starting point for anyone who wants to read or write well in Mandarin. Jump to the list of the 40 most used Chinese radicals and continue learning Chinese characters. When two or more radicals are connected, they work together to create a single character; the radical on the left shows the character's type or meaning, while the radical on the right might show its pronunciation. The most of the written Chinese language is made up of character compounds, in which several characters are connected to make one word. An important rule to note is that characters are written according to a standardized stroke order (笔画顺序), which typically moves from left to right, top to bottom and . Although Chinese characters may seem difficult at first, patterns will quickly appear once you develop a basic foundation. So, review your radicals, know about the most commonly used Chinese characters, and watch as your Mandarin skills grow quickly! 53.What does the underlined word “bewildering” mean in Chinese? A.令人困惑的 B.令人害怕的 C.令人感动的 D.令人害怕的 54. What does the fifth paragraph talk about? A. The role of Chinese characters. B. The popularity of Chinese characters. C. The method of making a Chinese character. D. The difficulties of using Chinese characters. 55. Which of the following can be put into in the last paragraph? A. outside to inside B. end to beginning C. inside to outside D. beginning to end 56.What is the structure of the text ? D Long ago, Damon and Pythias, two close friends on the island of Sicily, faced a test of their friendship. Dionysius, the king of Sicily, was awfully cruel. He had many enemies（敌人） among his people. Pythias was one of them.He planned to kill the king and free Sicily from his rule. Dionysius got wind of it, caught Pythias and sentenced him to death. “Do you have anything to say before you die?" asked Dionysius. “Yes,” said Pythias. “I would ask that you give me five more days of life I want to say goodbye to my family.” “Do you think I am silly?" Dionysius laughed. “How do I know you'll come back?” “You have my word.” “Do you expect me to trust you? I need someone to die in your place if you do not return.“Do you have such a friend?” A loud voice came from the crowd. “Yes!" Damon rushed forward. “I’m his friend Damon. I'll stay in prison until he returns, and I'll die for him if I have to.” Dionysius studied the two friends silently. “Well,” he finally said. “But you're a fool!” “He'll keep his word," Damon replied. Pythias was then allowed to leave and Damon was thrown into prison. After a few days, Pythias hadn't shown up. The king went to the prison to see if Damon regretted his decision. “Your time is almost up." Dionysius laughed. “What a fool you are!” “He'll be back," Damon replied. The final day came. At noon, Damon was taken from his prison. “What do you think of your friend now?" asked Dionysius. “I trust him," Damon calmly answered. “He'll be here.” Five hours passed. The king laughed at Damon again. “You value his life more than yours!” The executioner (行刑人) raised his axe(斧子). But just before the blow, a voice was heard in the distance: “Set Damon free!” Pythias rushed to his friend. “My ship was broken.Some robbers attacked me. I ran as fast as I could. Finally, I'm here!” He turned to Dionysius and said, “Free my friend! I'm ready to meet my executioner." Dionysius found himself strangely moved. “I've never seen such a friendship," said the king. “ ” 57. What does the underlined phrase “got the wind of?” mean?

Zhi Xuanzi was head of a big clan (家族) in the State of Jin(770-476BC). He wanted a clan member, Zhi Yao, to be his successor (继承人). However, another man in the clan, Zhi Guo, was against the idea. Zhi Guo listed some strong points of ZhiYao. For example, he was good at riding and shooting. He was decisive and talkative. But Zhi Guo said that he had a big problem with his morals. He thought he had an unkind heart. Still, Zhi Xuanzi didn't listen to the idea. Zhi Yao became head of the clan. With his leadership abilities, he quickly made his clan the strongest in the State of Jin. However, because of his aggressive style, three other clans worked together to fight against the Zhi clan. Finally, the Zhi clan was beaten. Sima Guang used this story to stress the importance of morals. Having only talent is not enough for a great person. He said that excellent people must have both talent and virtue. Those who have virtue but no talent might work inefficiently. Those who have talent but no virtue might not use their talent properly. Those who have both talent and virtue were called xiancai in ancient times. If you ask which one is more important between the two, it must be virtue. Only if a person has virtue can he or she get on the right track. In 2018, when President Xi Jinping talked with students and teachers at Peking University, he mentioned Sima Guang's ideas. He said good education should develop both a person's virtues and talents. Educators must follow this idea. As students, we can also make it our goal. 86.Who wrote the book History as a Mirror? _______________________________________________________________________ 87In Zhi Guo's opinion, what were Zhi Yao's strong points? __________________________________________________________________________ 88.Why was Zhi Guo against Zhi Yao becoming the new leader? __________________________________________________________________________ 89.What happened to the Zhi clan under Zhi Yao's leadership at last? __________________________________________________________________________ 90.

It joined talking and singing together in the local language. It was called xiaogeban(小 歌班). Farmers acted out and sang the unusual events of the day and legends (传说) of long ago. At the turn of the 20th century, xiaogeban spread to Shanghai. However, its actors were often laughed at by the locals. This finally led to the creation of Yue opera. The new art form was more formal (正式的) than xiaogeban. It borrowed ideas from other operatic traditions and started using carefully-made sets (布景), costumes and music. Yue opera actors are good at expressing emotions through singing. The romantic stories performed by women attracted more audiences. Over time, the art form became female-dominate(女性主导的). Today, male roles in Yue opera are often taken by female actors. Here follows some of the most famous stories in Yue opera. The Butterfly Lovers (《梁祝》) The Butterfly Lovers. or Liang Zhu, tells the story of Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai. It is a tale of love, devotion and fight. The Yue opera version of this tale is set in Zhejiang. It is one of the best-known versions of the story and was even made into a hit movie in 1953. The Story of the Western Wing(《西厢记》) This romantic story was written by Wang Shifu, a Yuan dynasty play writer, who tells the story of 九年级英语 第 5 页 共 11 页 lovers Zhang Sheng and Cui Yingying. They fall in love with each other and try to run away from Yingying's mother. Peach Blossom Fan (《桃花扇》) This sad love story is set in the late Ming dynasty. It was written by Qing dynasty play writer Kong Shangren. In the story, a young scholar Hou Fangyu and courtesan(花魁) Li Xiangjun exchange a fan as a token (信物) of their love. Unfortunately for the two lovers, Hou has to leave the corrupt imperial court(腐败的朝廷) and a powerful official forces Li to marry another man. 46. What does the writer want to tell us in Para. 1-2? A. The origin (起源) of Yue opera. B. The popularity of Yue opera. C.The audience (观众) of Yue opera. D. The achievements of Yue opera. 47. Which of the following statements is true? A. Yue opera was women-dominated at first. B.Yue opera was created in Yuan dynasty. C. Xiaogeban actors were popular in Shanghai. D. There are few male Yue opera actors today. 48. What can we learn about the three most famous stories in Yue opera according to the passage? A. They were created in the same dynasty. B. They all had a happy ending. C. They all told stories of two lovers. D. They were made into films in 1950s. B Scientists have come up with a new way of identifying (识别) animals in an area-by testing DNA in the air. The researchers believe their new method could help scientists keep track of (跟踪) animals that are hard to spot, including endangered animals. Two teams of scientists--one in Denmark and one in the United Kingdom---came up with the same question at about the same time: Could they identify the animals in an area from DNA that was simply floating in the air? Every living thing has DNA that can be used to identify it. They leave bits of DNA behind them wherever they go. DNA left behind like this is called “environmental”DNA, or eDNA. Scientists can use it to tell what kinds of animals are in a certain place. ① But most of the time, scientists look for eDNA in water. Neither team knew that the other group was working on a similar experiment. One collected samples from different locations at Denmark's Copenhagen Zoo, and the other at Hamerton Zoo Park in the UK. The scientists used slightly (稍微) different methods to collect their samples. But basically, both teams used vacuums (真 空吸尘器) and fans to collect tiny bits of DNA. In the laboratory, by comparing(对比) their samples with examples of DNA from different animals, the scientists were able to identify many different animals at the zoos. The scientists chose to test in zoos because they had rare animals not naturally found in the area. Each team only discovered about the other experiment after they had written a paper about their own results. The two decided to combine (合并) their results and publish a paper together. Both teams are excited about the ways this new method could be used in the wild. The researchers believe the method could help scientists a lot. Scientists have been looking for better ways to track endangered animals without interfering (干扰) with them. If researchers know where the animals live, they can do a better job of protecting them. The next step is to figure out how to take this method into nature. 49.What is the primary purpose of using eDNA according to the article? A. To prevent DNA of animals from floating in the air. 九年级英语 第 6 页 共 11 页 B. To attract rare animals to zoos for better protection. C. To save endangered animals away from all the diseases. D. To identify animals by testing DNA found in the air. 50. Which of the following is TRUE about the two teams of scientists? A. They knew each other very well before. B. They found more rare animals for zoos. C. They worked together to publish a paper. D. They used quite different methods to collect DNA. 51. Which sentence is suitable for ① ? A. It happened at different countries B. Testing for eDNA isn't a new idea C. Bits of DNA is too small to see in the air D. The scientists didn't have high hope for the experiment 52.What is the article mainly about? A.Proper ways of studying rare animals. B.Differences between DNA and eDNA. C.Challenges of protecting endangered animals. D.The eDNATesting for Animal Identification. C Reading and writing Chinese characters(汉字) is often considered the most ambitious challenge that language learners face in order to achieve fluency ( 流 利 ).Indeed, the process which has shaped this character system over thousands of years is both complex (复杂的) and long. Although they may appear bewildering at first, Chinese characters are actually made up of different building blocks (块) that form a straight and reasonable structure. Once you catch a basic understanding of the structure of Chinese characters, you will be reading and writing your way across the kingdom of Chinese characters in no time. Read the following and continue along your journey to learn Chinese characters. Unlike the Roman alphabet(字母 ),Chinese characters are used to show meaning rather than sound. In fact, most characters were firstly used as visual (视觉的) descriptions of physical elements like trees, houses or humans. Their earliest forms, simplified versions of these symbols, known as character radicals (偏旁), serve as the foundation for modern written Mandarin(普通话). Making up about 80% of the Chinese characters, radicals--in addition to Chinese pinyin-are an important starting point for anyone who wants to read or write well in Mandarin. Jump to the list of the 40 most used Chinese radicals and continue learning Chinese characters. When two or more radicals are connected, they work together to create a single character; the radical on the left shows the character's type or meaning, while the radical on the right might show its pronunciation. The most of the written Chinese language is made up of character compounds, in which several characters are connected to make one word. An important rule to note is that characters are written according to a standardized stroke order (笔画顺序), which typically moves from left to right, top to bottom and . Although Chinese characters may seem difficult at first, patterns will quickly appear once you develop a basic foundation. So, review your radicals, know about the most commonly used Chinese characters, and watch as your Mandarin skills grow quickly! 53.What does the underlined word “bewildering” mean in Chinese? 九年级英语 第 7 页 共 11 页 A.令人困惑的 B.令人害怕的 C.令人感动的 D.令人害怕的 54. What does the fifth paragraph talk about? A. The role of Chinese characters. B. The popularity of Chinese characters. C. The method of making a Chinese character. D. The difficulties of using Chinese characters. 55. Which of the following can be put into in the last paragraph? A. outside to inside B. end to beginning C. inside to outside D. beginning to end 56.What is the structure of the text ? D Long ago, Damon and Pythias, two close friends on the island of Sicily, faced a test of their friendship. Dionysius, the king of Sicily, was awfully cruel. He had many enemies（敌人） among his people. Pythias was one of them.He planned to kill the king and free Sicily from his rule. Dionysius got wind of it, caught Pythias and sentenced him to death. “Do you have anything to say before you die?" asked Dionysius. “Yes,” said Pythias. “I would ask that you give me five more days of life I want to say goodbye to my family.” “Do you think I am silly?" Dionysius laughed. “How do I know you'll come back?” “You have my word.” “Do you expect me to trust you? I need someone to die in your place if you do not return.“Do you have such a friend?” A loud voice came from the crowd. “Yes!" Damon rushed forward. “I’m his friend Damon. I'll stay in prison until he returns, and I'll die for him if I have to.” Dionysius studied the two friends silently. “Well,” he finally said. “But you're a fool!” “He'll keep his word," Damon replied. Pythias was then allowed to leave and Damon was thrown into prison. After a few days, Pythias hadn't shown up. The king went to the prison to see if Damon regretted his decision. “Your time is almost up." Dionysius laughed. “What a fool you are!” “He'll be back," Damon replied. The final day came. At noon, Damon was taken from his prison. “What do you think of your friend now?" asked Dionysius. “I trust him," Damon calmly answered. “He'll be here.” Five hours passed. The king laughed at Damon again. “You value his life more than yours!” The executioner (行刑人) raised his axe(斧子). But just before the blow, a voice was heard in the distance: “Set Damon free!” Pythias rushed to his friend. “My ship was broken.Some robbers attacked me. I ran as fast as I could. Finally, I'm here!” He turned to Dionysius and said, “Free my friend! I'm ready to meet my executioner." 九年级英语 第 8 页 共 11 页 Dionysius found himself strangely moved. “I've never seen such a friendship," said the king. “ ” 57.

He said that excellent people must have both talent and virtue. Those who have virtue but no talent might work inefficiently. Those who have talent but no virtue might not use their talent properly. Those who have both talent and virtue were called xiancai in ancient times. If you ask which one is more important between the two, it must be virtue. Only if a person has virtue can he or she get on the right track. In 2018, when President Xi Jinping talked with students and teachers at Peking University, he mentioned Sima Guang's ideas.
