This is hui nan tian, or lasting humid (湿热的) weather. Hui nan tian is a special weather condition in southern China. It normally appears in spring when the temperature begins to rise and the humidity quickly increases. Before it arrives, there are usually a few cold days, with a temperature below 12℃. As the cold air goes away, warmer air quickly comes and the temperature rises, creating a lot of water vapor (蒸气). Small water drops can be seen on windows and walls. For example, if the temperature is below 12℃ from March 7th to 9th but suddenly rises on March 10th, hui nan tian will appear on March 10th. During hui nan tian, the humid weather makes it easy for bacteria (细菌) to grow. Food goes bad easily and clothes stay wet. It can also make people feel tired and sick. Catching a cold is prevalent during this time, as the temperature changes quickly. Although the weather troubles people a lot, for nature, it can be helpful. Thanks to the humid weather, plants can grow better with enough water and warmer air. To cut down on the trouble caused by the lasting humid weather, scientists suggest that people in the south should close their windows in the morning and evening. At the same time, they should use an air conditioner to take away water from the air. It’s also useful to put newspapers on the floor, on tables, and at the door to take in water and wet air. 1．Where are we most likely to meet hui nan tian? A．The east of China. B．The south of China. C．The west of China. D．The north of China. 2．Which of the following is true about hui nan tian according to the passage? A．It always appears in summer. B．There is heavy rain every day.

A．The Humid Weather B．The Warm Air Rises C．The Growth of Plants D．The Weather Changes （24-25九年级上·广东佛山·期末）New research coming out of Tohoku University suggests that wasabi is good for the ability to remember. Wasabi, a spicy green paste, is eaten in small amounts in sushi and along with other Japanese dishes. It is made from the wasabi plant, a member of the mustard family. A recent study tested people between the ages of sixty and eighty. Some of the test subjects took a wasabi extract nightly before going to bed. The other test subjects were given a placebo. After three months, the people who took the wasabi extract had significantly better results in short-term and long-term memory tests. The placebo-takers did not show any improvement. Wasabi was already known to contain an antioxidant (抗氧化剂) and anti-inflammatory (抗炎物) called 6-MSITC that is rare in other plants. The researchers think that 6-MSITC might affect the hippocampus (海马体) in our brains, the area that is responsible for memory function. They will continue researching with the hope that wasabi can help people that are experiencing dementia. This new research seems to be good news for sushi-eaters, but most wasabi that is served in Japan is not real wasabi. Instead, it is white horseradish, a plant whose root has a strong taste like wasabi plant. Often it has been dyed green so people are likely to regard it as real wasabi, not only from taste but also from color. Real wasabi is difficult to grow and, as a result, is very expensive. It also needs to be grated and served fresh immediately before being eaten. 1．According to Paragraph 1, what is “wasabi”? A．It is a member of the mustard family. B．It is a green plant with a spicy taste. C．It is an eatable paste with a strong taste. D．It is a kind of Japanese dish. 2．What does the underlined word “placebo” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A．Replacement. B．Power. C．Treatment. D．Service. 3．What is the main focus of the researchers’ continued research on wasabi? A．To discover new antioxidants in wasabi. B．To study the 6-MSITC found in wasabi. C．To check the possible benefits of wasabi for people with dementia D．To understand the structure of the hippocampus in people’s brain. 4．Why most wasabi served in Japan is not real wasabi? A．Real wasabi is easy to grow but has a different taste. B．Real wasabi is difficult to grow and very expensive. C．People prefer the taste of white horseradish to real wasabi. D．White horseradish is easier to dye green than real wasabi. 5．What is the best title for the passage? A．The Health Benefits of Sushi B．Wasabi: A Memory-Improving Item C．The Science Behind Japanese Dish D．The Truth About Wasabi in Japan （24-25九年级下·广东中山·开学考试）January 20, 2025, a Chinese tech company named DeepSeek made a new AI called DeepSeek-R1. This smart program can solve math problems, write code (代码), and answer questions like top models such as OpenAI’s GPT-4o, but it costs much less to build. The team spent only $5.58 million (1/70 of OpenAI’s cost) and used 2,048 computer chips (芯片) for two months to make it. This shows that good ideas can beat big money. DeepSeek-R1 learns by trying many times and getting better, like how students practice maths. Other AIs need lots of prepared examples, but R1 improves by itself. In a global math test, it got 79.8% right, a little higher than OpenAI’s model. A simple version (版本) of R1 can even run on low-cost computers, helping schools and small companies. DeepSeek-R1 is free to use and change. On its first day online, over 19,000 programmers worldwide started projects to study it. A German scientist said experiments with R1 cost $10 instead of $300 with other AIs. Even Meta (a famous U.S. tech company) top scientist said, “This kind of free AI could change the world.” U.S. tech companies are worried. Meta planed to spend $65 billion more on AI research. Experts said China was catching up fast. A report in Nature magazine called R1 a “big step forward”, confirming that smart ideas beat expensive tools. As a DeepSeek engineer said, “We want AI to be a friend, not something only rich people can use.” With R1, China shows the world that great things come from new ideas and hard work, not just money. 1．How much did it cost to build DeepSeek-R1? A．$5.58 million. B．$65 billion. C．$10. D．$300. 2．What can we learn about DeepSeek-R1 from paragraph 2? A．It needs programmers to fix mistakes. B．It becomes better through practice. C．It copies answers from other AIs. D．It only works with expensive tools. 3．Why did Meta plan to spend more money on AI research? A．To help Chinese companies. B．To build more computer chips. C．To compete with DeepSeek-R1. D．To hire German scientists. 4．What does the underlined word “confirming” mean in paragraph 5? A．Proving. B．Exploring. C．Refusing. D．Connecting. 5．Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A．Competition between GPT-4o and DeepSeek-R1 B．Comparison of Chinese and American AI Models C．Appearance of Chinese AI Model DeepSeek-R1 D．Disadvantages of Chinese AI Model DeepSeek-R1 （24-25九年级上·广东东莞·期末）In recent years, plank exercise (平板支撑) has become more and more popular.

Scientists say this is because of climate change. This shrinking in size follows a rule called Bergmann’s rule. The rule says that animals in cooler areas are usually larger than those in warmer areas. Larger animals are able to keep warmer. That is the reason why animals in cold areas are larger. As global warming affects (影响) the planet, animals now have to deal with rising temperatures. Some of them shrink in size. Scientists studied over 70,000 species of birds. They discovered that some birds in North America were shrinking in size. Studies on deer, insects and fish also show similar facts. What does this mean for these species? Global warming is happening faster than ever before. So, animals may not be able to change fast enough. And when species shrink, other things get different. When an animal’s body shrinks, it may not be able to give birth to as many young as before—this may affect the size of a species’ population. It is possible that scientists haven’t yet completely understood how changes in size may affect the ability of animals to be alive. This shows the bigger problem with climate change—we aren’t always able to predict what will happen when the earth’s temperatures keep rising. And that is the real danger. 1．The underlined word “shrunk” in this passage means ________. A．become smaller B．disappeared C．increased D．grown 2．Why are animals in cold areas larger than those in warmer areas? A．Because they eat more food. B．Because they sleep longer. C．Because they can keep warmer. D．Because they need to be faster. 3．If a species’ body gets smaller, ________. A．the species’ population may become smaller B．the species may change faster quickly C．the earth may become warmer D．there will be more pollution on the earth 4．The writer thinks the biggest problem with global warming is ________. A．the earth’s temperatures keep rising B．humans can’t predict what will happen C．there will be fewer species on the earth D．there will be more pollution on the earth 5．What can be the best title for this passage? A．How Global Warming Affect the Planet B．Why the Earth’s Temperature Is Rising C．How Animals on the Earth Are Changing D．Why Some Animals Are Getting Smaller （24-25九年级下·广东珠海·开学考试）Looking at the undone homework on his desk always makes David Grey feel uncomfortable. More often than not, David leaves his homework behind and surfs the Internet or watches TV instead, waiting until the last minute. “But the longer I wait,” says David, aged 15, “the more I worry.” Everyone procrastinates (拖延) because they want to feel good now. The way to do that is to avoid the task. You can procrastinate on nearly anything, even enjoyable tasks such as planning a vacation. “Some people procrastinate cleaning. Some people procrastinate by cleaning,” says Professor Peter Stone. Research has shown that the top tasks young people procrastinate are studying and going to bed. “One big cause for procrastination is that people are afraid of failure, of not meeting others’ expectations,” Stone adds. Some people believe that procrastination will make them thrive. But researchers disagree. “I did a study several years ago, asking procrastinators to finish a task in a certain period of time,” says Stone. “They did worse than non-procrastinators: they made more mistakes and it took them longer. But they thought they did better.” No matter what the cause is, procrastination is usually not going to be good for you. For example, bedtime procrastination can lead to sleeplessness, which in turn can cause many other health problems. For those who need some drives to stop procrastinating, the best advice might be to take action first. If you’ve been procrastinating on forming a habit of exercise, just put on your walking shoes. A little bit of progress will get you moving. Next, find something to help you remember to take action. If you want to go to bed at 10:30 pm, you might set a timed dimmer switch (渐暗开关) at 10 pm. When the lights are dimmer, you’ll start going to bed. It works for most people. Finally, reward yourself every time you make progress. For example, after you’ve run 3 km, enjoy your favourite ice-cream. But be careful: it won’t work the other way around. 1．What tasks do young people procrastinate the most? A．Studying and going to bed. B．Surfing the Internet and watching TV. C．Doing homework and cleaning. D．Exercising and planning a vacation. 2．What is one big reason for people’s procrastination? A．They want to avoid doing hard work. B．They fear to lose and let others down. C．They need to finish the top tasks first. D．They plan to do the enjoyable tasks last. 3．The underlined word “thrive” in paragraph 3 most probably means ________. A．spend more time B．give up more easily C．do things better D．make more mistakes 4．What should David do if he wants to stop procrastinating on a writing task? A．Put on some soft music to help think actively. B．Enjoy a favourite ice-cream, and then start to write. C．Search the Internet for enough ideas before starting. D．Pick up a pen and write down possible starting sentences. 5．What can be the best title of this passage? A．A day of a procrastinator. B．Procrastination: yes or no? C．Say goodbye to procrastination.

The Chinese “long” is made up of parts of some kind animals, such as a rabbit’s eyes and an ox’s ears. In Chinesemythology (神话), “long” is able to fly. In addition, it can also spray (喷洒) water from its mouth to create rain. However, in Western culture, a dragon breathes fire and has the body of a snake and big wings of a bat. What’s more, most of the Western dragons are in dark colors because they usually stand for evil (邪恶). As a result, the evil dragon will be beaten by the superheroes. What makes such differences? In fact, they have something to do with the cultural differences. Chinese people think kindness are very important. It is our duty to help each other and live a peaceful life. But western culture prefers individual heroism (个人英雄主义). There is always a super hero standing out and fighting against the enemy, and saving the whole world finally. In recent years, Chinese have tried to translate “long” in another way. For example, some people write “long” as “Loong”. One of the reasons is that Loong sounds the same as the Chinese character long. Besides, the letters “oo” in the word Loong look like the two big eyes of the animal.

Many of them use the Internet for thousands of hours. That’s more time than they spend with teachers at school, and even more than the hours they spend watching TV and reading newspapers. However, some studies show a serious issue in the society: today’s teenagers are short of media literacy (素养). That’s to say, they have difficulty telling the right from wrong about the information. One study was done on middleschool students. It showed that more than 80% of them couldn’t tell the difference between real news and advertisements (广告) that looked like news. Professor Kevin John tried to help his students learn media literacy. He gave an example to show the importance of media literacy. In the example, two news stations report an awful snowstorm. One pays attention to the terrible road conditions. The other pays attention to kids playing in the snow. “News stations tell you their feelings. These depend on the opinions of the news reporter,” said John. “A person who has media literacy will know that each story is just about one part of the event at that time. There is more going on.” Some people think schools are the best place to teach media literacy. Others believe everyone, from parents to reporters, should help teenagers learn it. As for the best time to start learning media literacy, many people suggest the age of twelve. But some ideas can be taught even earlier. “It’s never too early to start learning media literacy,” John said. 1．What is Paragraph 1 mainly about? A．Teachers. B．Teenagers. C．Newspapers. D．The media’s influence. 2．What does the underlined word “issue” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A．Feeling. B．Problem. C．Decision. D．Achievement. 3．Why did Professor John give the example? A．To make his students happy. B．To tell others that there is a snowstorm. C．To show how important media literacy is. D．To tell the difference between right news and wrong news. 4．What can we learn from the last paragraph? A．Children don’t need to learn media literacy. B．Children can learn media literacy at any time. C．Children should be taught media literacy early. D．The age of ten is the best time to learn media literacy. 5．Which can be the best title for the passage? A．A Terrible Snowstorm B．The Wrong Information C．Teenagers’ Media Literacy D．The Opinions of News Reporters （24-25九年级上·广东江门·期末）Which city was the most popular in the winter holiday in 2024? Harbin, the city of northeast China’s Heilongjiang Province, must be on the list. Harbin has long been a famous travel destination in winter in tourists’ eyes. Lots of tourists go there every year. And it received much more attention in the winter holiday of 2024. For example, during the New Year Holiday of 2024, Harbin welcomed nearly 3.05 million tourists within three days. The increase in tourist arrivals is largely thanks to the hard work of Harbin’s service industry (行业), government, and local people. They worked together to provide friendly and caring services to make their guests feel special. As soon as tourists arrived in Harbin, they could enjoy live shows. And there were also dressing rooms for them to change into warm clothing. Many local people offered free car ride to tourists, and local shop owners gave them products like Wuchang rice for free. To help tourists deal with the cold weather, the city built heated rooms where visitors could keep warm and enjoy free hot drinks.

This is hui nan tian, or lasting humid (湿热的) weather. Hui nan tian is a special weather condition in southern China. It normally appears in spring when the temperature begins to rise and the humidity quickly increases. Before it arrives, there are usually a few cold days, with a temperature below 12℃. As the cold air goes away, warmer air quickly comes and the temperature rises, creating a lot of water vapor (蒸气). Small water drops can be seen on windows and walls. For example, if the temperature is below 12℃ from March 7th to 9th but suddenly rises on March 10th, hui nan tian will appear on March 10th. During hui nan tian, the humid weather makes it easy for bacteria (细菌) to grow. Food goes bad easily and clothes stay wet. It can also make people feel tired and sick. Catching a cold is prevalent during this time, as the temperature changes quickly. Although the weather troubles people a lot, for nature, it can be helpful. Thanks to the humid weather, plants can grow better with enough water and warmer air. To cut down on the trouble caused by the lasting humid weather, scientists suggest that people in the south should close their windows in the morning and evening. At the same time, they should use an air conditioner to take away water from the air. It’s also useful to put newspapers on the floor, on tables, and at the door to take in water and wet air. 1．Where are we most likely to meet hui nan tian? A．The east of China. B．The south of China. C．The west of China. D．The north of China. 2．Which of the following is true about hui nan tian according to the passage? A．It always appears in summer. B．There is heavy rain every day. C．There are usually a few cold days before it. D．It is a special weather condition in the north. 3．In which of the following conditions is hui nan tian most likely to appear on the 10th? A． B． C． D． 4．Which word has the same meaning as the underlined word “prevalent”? A．Strange. B．Common. C．Easy. D．Difficult. 5．What is the best title for the passage? A．The Humid Weather B．The Warm Air Rises C．The Growth of Plants D．The Weather Changes 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．A 4．C 5．A 【导语】本文主要介绍一个特殊的气候——回南天。 1．细节理解题。根据“Hui nan tian is a special weather condition in southern China.”可知，回南天是华南地区的一种特殊的天气状况。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据“Before it arrives, there are usually a few cold days, with a temperature below 12℃.”可知，回南天来临之前通常会有几天寒冷的天气。故选C。 3．推理判断题。根据“For example, if the temperature is below 12℃ from March 7th to 9th but suddenly rises on March 10th, hui nan tian will appear on March 10th.”可知，如果3月7日至9日气温都低于12摄氏度，但突然在10日气温骤升，那么回南天就会在3月10日到来。选项A的图表符合语境。故选A。 4．词句猜测题。根据“It can also make people feel tired and sick. Catching a cold is prevalent during this time, as the temperature changes quickly.”可知，因为气温变化大，所以感冒在所难免，也就是很容易感冒，因此prevalent与easy近义。故选C。 5．最佳标题题。本文主要介绍了回南天，这是一种非常潮湿的天气，选项A“潮湿的天气”作为标题最为合适。故选A。 （24-25九年级上·广东佛山·期末）New research coming out of Tohoku University suggests that wasabi is good for the ability to remember. Wasabi, a spicy green paste, is eaten in small amounts in sushi and along with other Japanese dishes. It is made from the wasabi plant, a member of the mustard family. A recent study tested people between the ages of sixty and eighty. Some of the test subjects took a wasabi extract nightly before going to bed. The other test subjects were given a placebo. After three months, the people who took the wasabi extract had significantly better results in short-term and long-term memory tests. The placebo-takers did not show any improvement. Wasabi was already known to contain an antioxidant (抗氧化剂) and anti-inflammatory (抗炎物) called 6-MSITC that is rare in other plants. The researchers think that 6-MSITC might affect the hippocampus (海马体) in our brains, the area that is responsible for memory function. They will continue researching with the hope that wasabi can help people that are experiencing dementia. This new research seems to be good news for sushi-eaters, but most wasabi that is served in Japan is not real wasabi. Instead, it is white horseradish, a plant whose root has a strong taste like wasabi plant. Often it has been dyed green so people are likely to regard it as real wasabi, not only from taste but also from color. Real wasabi is difficult to grow and, as a result, is very expensive. It also needs to be grated and served fresh immediately before being eaten. 1．According to Paragraph 1, what is “wasabi”? A．It is a member of the mustard family. B．It is a green plant with a spicy taste. C．It is an eatable paste with a strong taste. D．It is a kind of Japanese dish. 2．What does the underlined word “placebo” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A．Replacement. B．Power. C．Treatment. D．Service. 3．What is the main focus of the researchers’ continued research on wasabi? A．To discover new antioxidants in wasabi. B．To study the 6-MSITC found in wasabi. C．To check the possible benefits of wasabi for people with dementia D．To understand the structure of the hippocampus in people’s brain. 4．Why most wasabi served in Japan is not real wasabi? A．Real wasabi is easy to grow but has a different taste. B．Real wasabi is difficult to grow and very expensive. C．People prefer the taste of white horseradish to real wasabi. D．White horseradish is easier to dye green than real wasabi. 5．What is the best title for the passage? A．The Health Benefits of Sushi B．Wasabi: A Memory-Improving Item C．The Science Behind Japanese Dish D．The Truth About Wasabi in Japan 【答案】1．C 2．A 3．C 4．B 5．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了东北大学的一项新研究，该研究发现芥末有助于提高记忆力。 1．细节理解题。根据第一段“Wasabi, a spicy green paste, is eaten in small amounts in sushi and along with other Japanese dishes.”可知，wasabi是一种辛辣的绿色糊状物，会少量搭配寿司或其他日本菜肴一起食用，所以它是一种可食用且味道浓烈的糊状物。故选C。 2．词义猜测题。文中提到一些测试对象每晚睡前服用wasabi 提取物，而另一些测试对象则服用“placebo”。根据实验对比的逻辑，服用“placebo”的对象应作为对照组，即服用的是与wasabi提取物作用不同的替代物，所以划线单词“placebo”意思可能是 “替代物”，与“Replacement”同义。故选A。 3．细节理解题。根据第二段“They will continue researching with the hope that wasabi can help people that are experiencing dementia.”可知，研究人员继续研究芥末的主要关注点是检查芥末对患有痴呆症的人可能带来的益处。故选C。 4．细节理解题。根据第三段“Real wasabi is difficult to grow and, as a result, is very expensive.”可知，在日本大多数供应的芥末不是真正的芥末，是因为真正的芥末很难种植，而且非常昂贵。故选B。 5．最佳标题题。综合全文可知，本文开篇指出东北大学的新研究表明芥末对记忆力有好处，接着介绍了相关实验，最后提到日本大部分所谓的芥末并非真正的芥末，全文围绕芥末对记忆力的改善作用展开；选项B“芥末：一种提升记忆力的东西”最适合作为文章的标题。故选B。 （24-25九年级下·广东中山·开学考试）January 20, 2025, a Chinese tech company named DeepSeek made a new AI called DeepSeek-R1. This smart program can solve math problems, write code (代码), and answer questions like top models such as OpenAI’s GPT-4o, but it costs much less to build. The team spent only $5.58 million (1/70 of OpenAI’s cost) and used 2,048 computer chips (芯片) for two months to make it. This shows that good ideas can beat big money. DeepSeek-R1 learns by trying many times and getting better, like how students practice maths. Other AIs need lots of prepared examples, but R1 improves by itself. In a global math test, it got 79.8% right, a little higher than OpenAI’s model. A simple version (版本) of R1 can even run on low-cost computers, helping schools and small companies. DeepSeek-R1 is free to use and change. On its first day online, over 19,000 programmers worldwide started projects to study it. A German scientist said experiments with R1 cost $10 instead of $300 with other AIs. Even Meta (a famous U.S. tech company) top scientist said, “This kind of free AI could change the world.” U.S. tech companies are worried. Meta planed to spend $65 billion more on AI research. Experts said China was catching up fast. A report in Nature magazine called R1 a “big step forward”, confirming that smart ideas beat expensive tools. As a DeepSeek engineer said, “We want AI to be a friend, not something only rich people can use.” With R1, China shows the world that great things come from new ideas and hard work, not just money. 1．How much did it cost to build DeepSeek-R1?

Meta planed to spend $65 billion more on AI research.”和“Experts said China was catching up fast.”可推知，Meta计划再投入更多钱用于人工智能研究是为了与DeepSeek-R1竞争。故选C。 4．词义猜测题。根据画线词上文“A report in Nature magazine called R1 a ‘big step forward’”可知，杂志上的这篇报道是证明（proving）了“聪明的想法胜过昂贵的工具”这一观点。故画线词意思是“证明”。故选A。 5．主旨大意题。通读全文，并根据第一段“January 5, 525, a Chinese tech company named DeepSeek made a new AI called DeepSeek-R1.”可知，文章主要介绍了中国科技公司DeepSeek研发的一款新的人工智能模型DeepSeek-R1，该模型能以较低的成本完成与顶级模型相似的任务，并受到了广泛关注和好评。所以C选项“中国人工智能模型DeepSeek-R1的出现”最适合作为文章标题。故选C。 （24-25九年级上·广东东莞·期末）In recent years, plank exercise (平板支撑) has become more and more popular. It’s easy to find a proper place to do plank exercise. You can even do it with a chair! But you need to use a stable chair to make sure your safety. It is dangerous if the chair moves during exercise. Moreover, doing plank exercise regularly may bring you lots of benefits. Performing plank exercise as a daily home exercise before or after school will not only speed up your metabolism (新陈代谢), but also keep your metabolic rate (速率) high all day long. Doing it regularly will make you burn lots of calories (卡路里). This is especially useful if you have to sit in the classroom for hours every day. A high metabolic rate will help you lose weight and keep in good shape. Have you ever tried standing on one leg? You couldn’t stand straight for more than ten seconds on one leg, right? It’s because your muscles (肌肉) aren’t strong enough to give you the balance you need. Doing plank exercise regularly will improve your balance. Stronger muscles will also help you stand straight longer. ▲ Just think about it: You are sitting all day long. Your muscles get tired, and your legs get heavy. Plank exercise will relax the muscle groups that may cause stress in your body. As a result, it can have a powerful and positive effect on our mood. Considering all the benefits of plank exercise, will you make it part of your everyday life? 1．What does the underlined word “stable” mean? A．Not easily moved. B．Not dirty. C．Not common. D．Not skillful. 2．Which picture shows the change in your metabolic rate after you complete plank exercise? (x=time; y=metabolic rate) A． B． C． D． 3．Why can’t some people stand straight for more than ten seconds on one leg? A．Because they are drunk. B．Because their muscles are tired. C．Because their muscles are weak. D．Because they have fewer muscles. 4．Which of the following can be put in the ▲ in Paragraph 4? A．Everyone needs plank exercise. B．Plank exercise is simple for us. C．Plank exercise is the best way to exercise. D．You will also get some mental benefits. 5．What’s the main idea of the passage? A．The danger of regular plank exercise.

Scientists say this is because of climate change. This shrinking in size follows a rule called Bergmann’s rule. The rule says that animals in cooler areas are usually larger than those in warmer areas. Larger animals are able to keep warmer. That is the reason why animals in cold areas are larger. As global warming affects (影响) the planet, animals now have to deal with rising temperatures. Some of them shrink in size. Scientists studied over 70,000 species of birds. They discovered that some birds in North America were shrinking in size. Studies on deer, insects and fish also show similar facts. What does this mean for these species? Global warming is happening faster than ever before. So, animals may not be able to change fast enough. And when species shrink, other things get different. When an animal’s body shrinks, it may not be able to give birth to as many young as before—this may affect the size of a species’ population. It is possible that scientists haven’t yet completely understood how changes in size may affect the ability of animals to be alive. This shows the bigger problem with climate change—we aren’t always able to predict what will happen when the earth’s temperatures keep rising. And that is the real danger. 1．The underlined word “shrunk” in this passage means ________. A．become smaller B．disappeared C．increased D．grown 2．Why are animals in cold areas larger than those in warmer areas? A．Because they eat more food. B．Because they sleep longer. C．Because they can keep warmer. D．Because they need to be faster. 3．If a species’ body gets smaller, ________. A．the species’ population may become smaller B．the species may change faster quickly C．the earth may become warmer D．there will be more pollution on the earth 4．The writer thinks the biggest problem with global warming is ________. A．the earth’s temperatures keep rising B．humans can’t predict what will happen C．there will be fewer species on the earth D．there will be more pollution on the earth 5．What can be the best title for this passage? A．How Global Warming Affect the Planet B．Why the Earth’s Temperature Is Rising C．How Animals on the Earth Are Changing D．Why Some Animals Are Getting Smaller 【答案】1．A 2．C 3．A 4．B 5．D 【导语】本文主要介绍了一项研究结果显示一些物种的体型正在变小，而造成这种变化的根本原因是气候变暖。 1．词义猜测题。根据“This shrinking in size follows a rule called Bergmann’s rule. The rule says that animals in cooler areas are usually larger than those in warmer areas.”可知，该法则指出，较冷地区的动物通常比较暖地区的动物体型更大。由此可知，由于气候变化，美国有52种常见鸟类的体型在缩小，故划线单词表示“变小”。故选A。 2．细节理解题。根据“Larger animals are able to keep warmer. That is the reason why animals in cold areas are larger.”可知，寒冷的地方动物体型更大是因为它们能够保暖。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据“When an animal’s body shrinks, it may not be able to give birth to as many young as before—this may affect the size of a species’ population.”可知，当物种的体型变小，其种群数量可能会变少。故选A。 4．细节理解题。根据“This shows the bigger problem with climate change—we aren’t always able to predict what will happen when the earth’s temperatures keep rising. And that is the real danger.”可知，全球变暖最大的问题是人类不能预测会发生什么。故选B。 5．最佳标题题。本文主要介绍了一些物种的体型正在变小的原因是全球变暖，因此最佳标题为“为什么有些动物正在变小”。故选D。 （24-25九年级下·广东珠海·开学考试）Looking at the undone homework on his desk always makes David Grey feel uncomfortable. More often than not, David leaves his homework behind and surfs the Internet or watches TV instead, waiting until the last minute. “But the longer I wait,” says David, aged 15, “the more I worry.” Everyone procrastinates (拖延) because they want to feel good now. The way to do that is to avoid the task. You can procrastinate on nearly anything, even enjoyable tasks such as planning a vacation. “Some people procrastinate cleaning. Some people procrastinate by cleaning,” says Professor Peter Stone. Research has shown that the top tasks young people procrastinate are studying and going to bed. “One big cause for procrastination is that people are afraid of failure, of not meeting others’ expectations,” Stone adds. Some people believe that procrastination will make them thrive. But researchers disagree. “I did a study several years ago, asking procrastinators to finish a task in a certain period of time,” says Stone. “They did worse than non-procrastinators: they made more mistakes and it took them longer. But they thought they did better.” No matter what the cause is, procrastination is usually not going to be good for you. For example, bedtime procrastination can lead to sleeplessness, which in turn can cause many other health problems. For those who need some drives to stop procrastinating, the best advice might be to take action first. If you’ve been procrastinating on forming a habit of exercise, just put on your walking shoes. A little bit of progress will get you moving. Next, find something to help you remember to take action. If you want to go to bed at 10:30 pm, you might set a timed dimmer switch (渐暗开关) at 10 pm. When the lights are dimmer, you’ll start going to bed. It works for most people. Finally, reward yourself every time you make progress. For example, after you’ve run 3 km, enjoy your favourite ice-cream. But be careful: it won’t work the other way around. 1．What tasks do young people procrastinate the most? A．Studying and going to bed. B．Surfing the Internet and watching TV. C．Doing homework and cleaning. D．Exercising and planning a vacation. 2．What is one big reason for people’s procrastination? A．They want to avoid doing hard work. B．They fear to lose and let others down. C．They need to finish the top tasks first. D．They plan to do the enjoyable tasks last. 3．The underlined word “thrive” in paragraph 3 most probably means ________. A．spend more time B．give up more easily C．do things better D．make more mistakes 4．What should David do if he wants to stop procrastinating on a writing task? A．Put on some soft music to help think actively. B．Enjoy a favourite ice-cream, and then start to write. C．Search the Internet for enough ideas before starting. D．Pick up a pen and write down possible starting sentences. 5．What can be the best title of this passage? A．A day of a procrastinator. B．Procrastination: yes or no? C．Say goodbye to procrastination. D．Want to feel good now? Procrastinate! 【答案】1．A 2．B 3．C 4．D 5．C 【导语】本文主要介绍了拖延症，以及摆脱拖延症的一些方法。 1．细节理解题。根据“Research has shown that the top tasks young people procrastinate are studying and going to bed.”可知，年轻人拖延最多的事务是学习和睡觉。故选A。 2．细节理解题。根据“One big cause for procrastination is that people are afraid of failure, of not meeting others’ expectations”可知，拖延的一个主要原因是人们害怕失败，害怕辜负他人的期望。故选B。 3．词句猜测题。根据“Some people believe that procrastination will make them thrive. But researchers disagree. ‘I did a study several years ago, asking procrastinators to finish a task in a certain period of time,’ says Stone. ‘They did worse than non-procrastinators: they made more mistakes and it took them longer. But they thought they did better.’ ”可知，一些人认为拖延会让他们……，但研究人员并不认同。一项研究要求拖延者在特定时间内完成一个任务，他们犯的错误比不拖延的人更多，花费的时间也更长，但他们却认为自己做得更好。可以推断“thrive”在文中意为“表现更好”。故选C。 4．推理判断题。根据“For those who need some drives to stop procrastinating, the best advice might be to take action first... A little bit of progress will get you moving.”可知，对于那些需要一些动力来停止拖延的人来说，最佳建议或许是先采取行动，哪怕一点点进展也会让你动起来。如果大卫想在写作任务上不再拖延，他应该先采取行动，拿起笔写下可用于开头的句子。故选D。 5．最佳标题题。本文主要介绍了拖延症，以及摆脱拖延症的一些方法。选项C“向拖延症说再见”与之相符。故选C。 （2024·广东佛山·二模）Some students’ favourite books Bill: My favourite book is The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch (女巫) and the Wardrobe (衣橱) by C． S.

The Chinese “long” is made up of parts of some kind animals, such as a rabbit’s eyes and an ox’s ears. In Chinesemythology (神话), “long” is able to fly. In addition, it can also spray (喷洒) water from its mouth to create rain. However, in Western culture, a dragon breathes fire and has the body of a snake and big wings of a bat. What’s more, most of the Western dragons are in dark colors because they usually stand for evil (邪恶). As a result, the evil dragon will be beaten by the superheroes. What makes such differences? In fact, they have something to do with the cultural differences. Chinese people think kindness are very important. It is our duty to help each other and live a peaceful life. But western culture prefers individual heroism (个人英雄主义). There is always a super hero standing out and fighting against the enemy, and saving the whole world finally. In recent years, Chinese have tried to translate “long” in another way. For example, some people write “long” as “Loong”. One of the reasons is that Loong sounds the same as the Chinese character long. Besides, the letters “oo” in the word Loong look like the two big eyes of the animal. Anyway, no matter how “long” is translated, there is one thing for sure: the Chinese long is different from the Western dragon, and it is a symbol of good luck. 1．Which of the following is the picture of a Western dragon? A． B． C． D． 2．According to Chinese people, what might be the reason for long to spray water? A．To fight against the evil dragon. B．To help the farmers in the dry weather.

Many of them use the Internet for thousands of hours. That’s more time than they spend with teachers at school, and even more than the hours they spend watching TV and reading newspapers. However, some studies show a serious issue in the society: today’s teenagers are short of media literacy (素养). That’s to say, they have difficulty telling the right from wrong about the information. One study was done on middleschool students. It showed that more than 80% of them couldn’t tell the difference between real news and advertisements (广告) that looked like news. Professor Kevin John tried to help his students learn media literacy. He gave an example to show the importance of media literacy. In the example, two news stations report an awful snowstorm. One pays attention to the terrible road conditions. The other pays attention to kids playing in the snow. “News stations tell you their feelings. These depend on the opinions of the news reporter,” said John. “A person who has media literacy will know that each story is just about one part of the event at that time. There is more going on.” Some people think schools are the best place to teach media literacy. Others believe everyone, from parents to reporters, should help teenagers learn it. As for the best time to start learning media literacy, many people suggest the age of twelve. But some ideas can be taught even earlier. “It’s never too early to start learning media literacy,” John said. 1．What is Paragraph 1 mainly about? A．Teachers. B．Teenagers. C．Newspapers.
