A.Music B.Business C.Lifestyle D.Fashion B DDo you like blueberries?If so,the next time you're about to eat your delicious berries,take a good look at them.Then ask yourself:Are blueberries really blue? 2For the most part,blueberries aren't blue.If you carefully peel the skin off one,you'll see that the flesh inside is white.If you rub(the inside of the skin on a white piece of paper,you'll see a reddish-purple color.And if you gently rub the outside of a blueberry,the blue color disappears and the berry looks almost black.But the moment you pick one,it does look blue.What's going on? 3Well,there are two ways to create colors.The first is through pigments ()Pigments show the color of the light they don't take in.The most common pigment in plants is chlorophyll,a green pigment.Plant leaves appear green because chlorophyll doesn't take in green light.It sends it out instead while taking in blue and red light.Plants prefer to take in blue light because it has more energy than any other light.In fact,there aren't any"true blue"pigments in the plant world. OThe second way to make color is through"structural color".This happens when the structure of a surface makes some colors of light look different.Have you ever seen the rainbow colors on a CD?These colors show up because of the tiny spaces between the disk's thin layers.These spaces only allow certain colors to reach our eyes. 5Blueberries also create "structural color"in their own way.The berries look black when they're ripe,but the plants build a thin layer of wax ()on their outside.This layer is only four-thousandths of a centimeter thick,but it gives the berries their blue look.The blue color benefits the plants because birds are attracted to the rare color.They eat the berries and spread the seeds far and wide 6Now your bowl of blueberries suddenly looks a lot more interesting.The fruit is beautiful, but its beauty is only skin deep! 49.How does the writer lead in the topic? A.By giving an example. B.By asking questions. C.By listing numbers. D.By describing a scene. 50.What can we learn from Para.3? A.There are few blue pigments in the plant world. B.Plant leaves prefer to give out blue and red light. C.Green pigments can make plants grow much better. D.Plants appear green because they take in green light. 51.What is the underlined phrase"show up"similar to? A.develop B.influence C.balance D.appear 52.Which of the following is True? A.The flesh inside blueberries is black exactly. B.Blueberries take in blue light in a special way. C.The wax on blueberries makes them look blue. D.Rainbow colours can be seen on blueberries. 九年级英语试卷，第6页（共12页） c DFloods are becoming more and more common around the world.The warming climate is leading to heavier rainfall,but could the way that cities are growing be making things worse?Could we design cities in a different way to reduce the risk of flooding? ②As cities get larger,and more and more land is under concrete(混凝土)，less water is taken in and more needs to be carried away by storm drains(雨水渠)and sewerage systems(下水道系统). As there is more water than they can be filled with,the risk of flash flooding increases. 3Could it be that we've been taking the wrong way?Chinese landscape designer Yu Kongjian certainly thinks so..n20l3,he thought of the idea of“sponge cities(海绵城市)"，which are designed to take in water-like a sponge-reducing the risk of sudden floods.Natural solutions are encouraged,using riverside parks and ponds to take in floodwater.Ways inspired by this have been taken by cities across the world.Auckland,in New Zealand,was named the spongiest city in one study.It has built green banks and connected parks instead of the concrete drains around the Oakley creek stream.This has reduced flooding in the nearby housing areas as well as the amount of waste which used to be washed into the sea. Auckland has taken a natural way,but a much more high-tech method can be seen in Amsterdam.The Dutch city has fixed blue-green roofs (on a number of buildings.These roofs have a layer of plants on the outside,and then layers under which collect and store rainwater.This water can be used by people in the building below to water plants or wash toilets.Smart software can even tell the roofs to release water ahead of upcoming storms to make the system take in more rainwater.It can even know which areas of the city are at most risk and take effective action. 5Yu Kongjian describes the sponge city way as using Tai Chi with nature instead of boxing. Questions have been raised as to whether a natural way is enough when faced with increased rain fall globally.What remains to be seen is whether increased size and connection with modern technology can help natural methods save many more people from flooding. 53.Why is rainfall getting heavier around the world? A.Because cities need more rain water. B.Because cities are getting larger. C.Because the climate is getting warm. D.Because cities are under concrete. 54.What's the purpose of"sponge cities"? A.To help cities save water. B.To develop larger cities. C.To build more tourist attractions. D.To protect cities from floods. 55.What is the structure of this passage?(1=Paragraph 1,2=Paragraph 2...) ① ① ① ②③④ B ②③ ④⑤ ④ ⑤ 56.What's the writer's attitude towards the future role of"sponge cities"? A.Worried. B.Hopeful. C.Uncertain. D.Uncaring. 九年级英语试卷，第7页（共12页） D Watson had been watching his friend closely since sitting down to breakfast.Holmes happened to look up and meet his eyes."Watson,what are you thinking about?"he asked. “You.” “Me?m "Yes,Holmes.I was just thinking about how easily you picked up all these tricks of yours." "No doubt,"Holmes answered with a smile."Would you care to give me an example of my method of reasoning?" "With pleasure,"said Watson."I can tell that you were quite absent-minded this morning." “Excellent!'"said Holmes.“How could you possibly know that?” “Because you're usually a neat man,.but today,you've forgotten to shave(刮脸).” "Dear me!"said Holmes."I had no idea.Watson,that you were so clever.Has your eagle eye detected anything else?"

"Just a little that way,I fear.Let's go over your reasoning:I didn't shave because I'd sent my razor out to be repaired.I put on my coat because I have an early appointment with my dentist.His name is Barlow,and the letter was to confirm the time.But go on,Watson!It's a simple trick,and no doubt you'll soon master it." 57.What can you know about Holmes according to the conversation?
