Whether you’re doing international business, social work, or just on holiday abroad, the ability to communicate with anyone in their own language is of great help and importance. Using AI technology, two famous Japanese inventors have developed a more high-tech language translation device (设备) a timely translator called MUAMA. The translator makes it easier for people to communicate with each other and is widely used in different areas. Learning a new language takes months or even years of hard work and practice, while MUAMA can easily translate what you are saying into over 40 languages in quite a short time, using only a few touches of fingers. An experienced human translator is more expensive and must be paid for more than once. But MUAMA requires only a single payment for widely chosen languages, which cost you much less to use. MUAMA is more convenient and simpler because of its lightweight design and small size, and it is also easy to carry around in a pocket or a bag, as well as being there when one needs it. It works well even in noisy and crowded places since it has a perfect sound quality, which is powerful enough to be heard clearly. And text translation service can be used as well. MUAMA was first created for travelers. With a MUAMA translator abroad you can ask for directions, order a meal, or just have a friendly conversation in 40 different languages! Take your next foreign trip to a whole new level you’ve never experienced before. Language problems should no longer trouble you. Moreover, it has become popular even among people in other areas. What has amazed us is that more and more international social workers and aid workers, as well as volunteers, choose MUAMA to make their work easier. After using the translator, people greatly raised the quality of work. 51. What ability does the writer think is important in the beginning? A. Making a plan for a holiday. B. Starting international business. C. Doing important social work. D. Communicating with foreigners. 52. What do we know about MUAMA according to paragraph 3? A. It is cheap but inconvenient. B. It is lightweight but large. C. It can help to clear up noise. D. It can translate speech and text. 53. The invention was first created for ________. A. foreign travelers B. social workers C. exchange students D. volunteers abroad 54. Which of the following is the structure of the text? 　 　 （①＝Para.1 ②＝ Para.2 ③＝ Para.3 ④＝ Para.4 ⑤＝ Para.5 ） A. B. C. D. 55. What’s the text mainly about? A. The tools for learning foreign languages. B. The skills to communicate with foreigners. C. The characteristics of a translator and its wide use. D The methods of translating languages. 【答案】51. D 52. D 53. A 54. A 55. C 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了MUAMA 的用途和功能特点。 【51题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Mastering a foreign language is probably a skill that’s in high need. Whether you’re doing international business, social work, or just on holiday abroad, the ability to communicate with anyone in their own language is of great help and importance.”可知，这段主要强调了掌握一门外语和外国人沟通的能力的重要性。故选D。 【52题详解】 细节理解题。根据“It works well even in noisy and crowded places since it has a perfect sound quality, which is powerful enough to be heard clearly. And text translation service can be used as well.”以及前文可知，MUAMA 不仅可以翻译语言还可以翻译文本。故选D。 【53题详解】 细节理解题。根据“MUAMA was first created for travelers.”可知，MUAMA 最初为旅游者设计的。故选A。 【54题详解】 篇章结构题。根据“Mastering a foreign language is probably a skill that’s in high need. Whether you’re doing international business, social work, or just on holiday abroad, the ability to communicate with anyone in their own language is of great help and importance.”可知，这段主要强调了掌握一门外语和外国人沟通的能力的重要性。第二段“Using AI technology, two famous Japanese inventors have developed a more high-tech language translation device (设备) a timely translator called MUAMA.”可知，两位著名的日本发明家利用人工智能技术开发了一种更高科技的语言翻译设备，名叫MUAMA的即时翻译。3-5段介绍了MUAMA的特点及其广泛使用。因此选项A正确。故选A。 【55题详解】 主旨大意题。根据“while MUAMA can easily translate what you are saying into over 40 languages in quite a short time, using only a few touches of fingers.”以及“With a MUAMA translator abroad you can ask for directions, order a meal, or just have a friendly conversation in 40 different languages!”以及结合上下文可知，文章主要介绍 MUAMA 的用途和功能特点。故选C。 C Some animals can easily find their way home after a long journey. How do they make it? Scientific research shows that they are born with certain unusual abilities for direction. A certain kind of ants, for example, can count their steps to avoid getting lost. They can go as far as 110 metres and bring food home. These ants live in the open desert (沙漠), so they have nothing to guide them along the way. It’s like someone walking six kilometres through a dark forest. Some fish have an unbelievable sense of smell. They can smell even a single drop of their home water in a large sea area. Some sea birds have a similar ability. They are able to make a smell map of their flying area. Some animals can sense the earth’s magnetic field (磁场), while humans can’t. This magnetic field guides a certain kind of fish when they swim a long way to a place and then back. How can this kind of fish do that? It is still a mystery. Scientists have no good answers yet. However, animals with such unusual abilities still have difficulty dealing with environmental changes caused by human activities. For example, many birds depend on stars for direction, but they get lost easily at night when city lights are kept on all night. To solve this problem, we can simply turn off some lights at night. Clearly, one small act of humans may mean a lot to animals. 56. Where is this passage most probably from? A. A storybook. B. An art magazine. C. A guidebook. D. A science magazine. 57. How can a certain kind of ants find their way? A. By imagining the way. B. By counting their steps. C. By bringing food together D. By walking through a forest. 58. What does the underlined word “mystery” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Secret. B. Choice. C. Reason. D. Feeling. 59. What are people advised to do according to the last paragraph? A. To help animals. B. To travel at night. C. To keep city lights on. D. To develop unusual abilities. 60. Which can be the best title for the passage? A. Birds’ Sense of Light B. Fish’s Sense of Smell C. Animals’ Sense of Direction D. Animals’ Sense of Magnetic Field 【答案】56. D 57. B 58. A 59. A 60. C 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了动物天生就具有某些不寻常的方向感。 【56题详解】 推理判断题。本文是围绕“动物的方向感”展开，可以在科学杂志上看到。故选D。 【57题详解】 细节理解题。根据“A certain kind of ants, for example, can count their steps to avoid getting lost.”可知一些蚂蚁可以通过数步数来避免迷路。故选B。 【58题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“It is still a mystery.

As she walked toward the crowd, she saw a boy lying in a pool of blood near a crashed motorbike. His leg was almost cut off at the knee. Luckily, when Helen asked about his condition, the young man could still talk, even though he was in great pain. Helen had knowledge of first aid and had also taken a British Red Cross first aid course. She used her training to make a quick assessment (评估) of the situation. Then she ran back inside her home to get several thick towels to stop the bleeding. As Helen returned to the scene with the towels, someone from the crowd had called an ambulance, but the young man was still bleeding heavily. “On my return, I could see that the other people were afraid to come forward and help. I used the towel as best I could to apply pressure to the wound until help arrived,” Helen recalled. Then she successfully managed to control the bleeding and comforted the young man while waiting for help to arrive. Before long, the ambulance team arrived at the scene. Unluckily, doctors weren’t able to save the man’s leg, but they did save his life and Helen’s actions played a key role. Without the simple but effective first aid skills Helen used, the results of this accident could have been far worse. “Knowing first aid gave me the confidence to look at the situation, to stay calm, and most importantly, to step forward to help in an emergency situation when others wouldn’t. I feel so happy that my first aid knowledge helped me save a stranger’s life,” Helen said. 61. Where did Helen see the boy? A. At a crossroads. B. Behind her garden. C. In front of her house. D. Outside her neighbor’s house. 62. Why did Helen dare to deal with the situation? A. She used to be a doctor. B. She had a similar accident. C. She had dealt with this before. D. She had been trained to do that. 63. Helen was quite ________ when she gave the young man first aid. A. calm B. worried C. helpless D. uncertain 64. Which of the following is TRUE about the young man? A. He didn’t get professional treatment. B. He would never walk on his legs again. C. He got quite better under Helen’s care. D. He lost his leg because of no timely help. 65. What does the author want to tell us through the story? A. One is never too old to learn. B. It is necessary to learn first aid. C. Everyone must follow the traffic rules. D. Giving sometimes produces nice results. 【答案】61. C 62. D 63. A 64. B 65. B 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了Helen Cowan运用急救知识帮助因事故受伤的男孩的故事，强调了急救技能的重要性。 【61题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“But as she walked to the front of the house, she saw a small crowd gathered on the sidewalk outside.”以及第二段“As she walked toward the crowd, she saw a boy lying in a pool of blood near a crashed motorbike.”可知，海伦是在她家房子前面看到那个受伤的男孩的。故选C。 【62题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Helen had knowledge of first aid and had also taken a British Red Cross first aid course. She used her training to make a quick assessment of the situation.”可知，海伦了解急救知识，并参加过英国红十字会的急救课程。因此，她敢于处理这种情况是因为她受过训练。故选D。 【63题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Then she successfully managed to control the bleeding and comforted the young man while waiting for help to arrive. Before long, the ambulance team arrived at the scene.”以及最后一段“Knowing first aid gave me the confidence to look at the situation, to stay calm, and most importantly, to step forward to help in an emergency situation when others wouldn’t.”可知，在救护车到来之前，海伦在面对伤者大量出血这样危急而且紧张的状况时，能够有条不紊地运用自己所学的急救知识成功地控制住出血情况，据此可以推断，海伦在给年轻人实施急救时是很冷静的。故选A。 【64题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Unluckily, doctors weren’t able to save the man’s leg, but they did save his life and Helen’s actions played a key role.”可知，男孩的命虽然保住了，但他的腿未能保住。故选B。 【65题详解】 主旨大意题。根据“I feel so happy that my first aid knowledge helped me save a stranger’s life”以及全文内容可知，作者通过这个故事想告诉我们学习急救的重要性。故选B。 第二节 (共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分) E China is the country that eats the most watermelons in the world.

Here are the results of the survey. 85% of the students would like to have computer­ aided tests because listening and speaking abilities are really important for language learners. Besides, students will be provided with more chances to practice listening and speaking rather than doing endless grammar exercises. However, other students think differently. They are afraid of taking such tests because they may get nervous easily when talking to a machine. Moreover, their oral English is so poor that they are likely to fail in the tests. As for me, I like to have computer­ aided tests because it’s a good way to show my spoken English. We should have confidence in ourselves and practice more. 【解析】 【详解】[总体分析] ①题材：本文是一篇材料作文； ②时态：时态以“一般现在时”为主； ③提示：写作要点已给出，考生应注意不要遗漏自己的观点和建议，可适当添加细节，并突出写作重点。 [写作步骤] 第一步，引出针对人机对话的调查； 第二步，分别介绍学生们喜欢人机对话和不喜欢人机对话的理由； 第三步，表达自己的观点和建议。 [亮点词汇] ①would like to do sth.想做某事 ②rather than而不是 ③be afraid of害怕 ④as for至于 [高分句型] Moreover, their oral English is so poor that they are likely to fail in the tests.(so…that引导结果状语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$null 福州屏东中学2024-2025学年第一学期适应性练习 (四) 九年级 英语 (满分：150分；完卷时间：120分钟) 命题人 李如燕 张鑫婕 审题人 段樱 赵怡然 I. 听力 (共三节,20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分) 第一节 听句子 听下面五个句子，从每小题所给的A、B、C三幅图中选出与句子内容相关的选项。(每个句子读两遍) 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 A.

In this experiment, you will use electricity to split (分离) water into hydrogen (氢) and oxygen (氧). What You Need two 2B pencils with no erasers at the ends scissors one piece of thin cardboard one teaspoon salt small clear glass, half full of warm water two 20cm pieces of electrical wire (线) one 9 volt battery How You Do It 1.

In which section of a magazine can you probably read the text? A. Science. B. Health. C. Cooking. D. Sports. B Mastering a foreign language is probably a skill that’s in high need. Whether you’re doing international business, social work, or just on holiday abroad, the ability to communicate with anyone in their own language is of great help and importance. Using AI technology, two famous Japanese inventors have developed a more high-tech language translation device (设备) a timely translator called MUAMA. The translator makes it easier for people to communicate with each other and is widely used in different areas. Learning a new language takes months, or even years of hard work and practice, while MUAMA can easily translate what you are saying into over 40 languages in quite a short time, using only a few touches of fingers. An experienced human translator is more expensive and must be paid for more than once. But MUAMA requires only a single payment for widely chosen languages, which cost you much less to use. MUAMA is more convenient and simpler because of its lightweight design and small size, and it is also easy to carry around in a pocket or a bag, as well as being there when one needs it. It works well even in noisy and crowded places since it has a perfect sound quality, which is powerful enough to be heard clearly. And text translation service can be used as well. MUAMA was first created for travelers. With a MUAMA translator abroad you can ask for directions, order a meal, or just have a friendly conversation in 40 different languages! Take your next foreign trip to a whole new level you’ve never experienced before. Language problems should no longer trouble you. Moreover, it has become popular even among people in other areas. What has amazed us is that more and more international social workers and aid workers, as well as volunteers, choose MUAMA to make their work easier. After using the translator, people greatly raised the quality of work. 51. What ability does the writer think is important in the beginning? A. Making a plan for a holiday. B. Starting international business. C. Doing important social work. D. Communicating with foreigners. 52. What do we know about MUAMA according to paragraph 3? A. It is cheap but inconvenient. B. It is lightweight but large. C. It can help to clear up noise. D. It can translate speech and text. 53. The invention was first created for ________. A. foreign travelers B. social workers C. exchange students D. volunteers abroad 54. Which of the following is the structure of the text? 　 　 （①＝Para.1 ②＝ Para.2 ③＝ Para.3 ④＝ Para.4 ⑤＝ Para.5 ） A. B. C. D. 55. What’s the text mainly about? A. The tools for learning foreign languages. B. The skills to communicate with foreigners. C. The characteristics of a translator and its wide use. D. The methods of translating languages. C Some animals can easily find their way home after a long journey. How do they make it? Scientific research shows that they are born with certain unusual abilities for direction. A certain kind of ants, for example, can count their steps to avoid getting lost. They can go as far as 110 metres and bring food home. These ants live in the open desert (沙漠), so they have nothing to guide them along the way. It’s like someone walking six kilometres through a dark forest. Some fish have an unbelievable sense of smell. They can smell even a single drop of their home water in a large sea area. Some sea birds have a similar ability. They are able to make a smell map of their flying area. Some animals can sense the earth’s magnetic field (磁场), while humans can’t. This magnetic field guides a certain kind of fish when they swim a long way to a place and then back. How can this kind of fish do that? It is still a mystery. Scientists have no good answers yet. However, animals with such unusual abilities still have difficulty dealing with environmental changes caused by human activities. For example, many birds depend on stars for direction, but they get lost easily at night when city lights are kept on all night. To solve this problem, we can simply turn off some lights at night. Clearly, one small act of humans may mean a lot to animals. 56. Where is this passage most probably from? A. A storybook. B. An art magazine. C. A guidebook. D. A science magazine. 57. How can a certain kind of ants find their way? A. By imagining the way. B. By counting their steps. C. By bringing food together D. By walking through a forest. 58. What does the underlined word “mystery” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Secret. B. Choice. C. Reason. D. Feeling. 59. What are people advised to do according to the last paragraph? A. To help animals. B. To travel at night. C. To keep city lights on. D. To develop unusual abilities. 60. Which can be the best title for the passage? A. Birds’ Sense of Light B. Fish’s Sense of Smell C. Animals’ Sense of Direction D. Animals’ Sense of Magnetic Field D Helen Cowan had decided to sit in the garden one evening when she heard a loud noise. At first, she thought something had fallen from her recently renovated (翻新的) house. But as she walked to the front of the house, she saw a small crowd gathered on the sidewalk outside. As she walked toward the crowd, she saw a boy lying in a pool of blood near a crashed motorbike. His leg was almost cut off at the knee. Luckily, when Helen asked about his condition, the young man could still talk, even though he was in great pain. Helen had knowledge of first aid and had also taken a British Red Cross first aid course. She used her training to make a quick assessment (评估) of the situation. Then she ran back inside her home to get several thick towels to stop the bleeding. As Helen returned to the scene with the towels, someone from the crowd had called an ambulance, but the young man was still bleeding heavily. “On my return, I could see that the other people were afraid to come forward and help. I used the towel as best I could to apply pressure to the wound until help arrived,” Helen recalled. Then she successfully managed to control the bleeding and comforted the young man while waiting for help to arrive. Before long, the ambulance team arrived at the scene. Unluckily, doctors weren’t able to save the man’s leg, but they did save his life and Helen’s actions played a key role. Without the simple but effective first aid skills Helen used, the results of this accident could have been far worse. “Knowing first aid gave me the confidence to look at the situation, to stay calm, and most importantly, to step forward to help in an emergency situation when others wouldn’t. I feel so happy that my first aid knowledge helped me save a stranger’s life,” Helen said. 61. Where did Helen see the boy? A. At a crossroads. B. Behind her garden. C. In front of her house. D. Outside her neighbor’s house. 62. Why did Helen dare to deal with the situation? A. She used to be a doctor. B. She had a similar accident. C. She had dealt with this before. D. She had been trained to do that. 63. Helen was quite ________ when she gave the young man first aid. A. calm B. worried C. helpless D. uncertain 64. Which of the following is TRUE about the young man? A. He didn’t get professional treatment. B. He would never walk on his legs again. C. He got quite better under Helen’s care. D. He lost his leg because of no timely help. 65. What does the author want to tell us through the story? A. One is never too old to learn. B. It is necessary to learn first aid. C Everyone must follow the traffic rules. D. Giving sometimes produces nice results. 第二节 (共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分) E China is the country that eats the most watermelons in the world.
