Well, I think you might be able to help me.”可知，然后是乔布斯打电话给比尔寻求帮助；根据“Bill invited Steve to his office and a few days later, Bill gave Steve what he needed.”可知，接下来是比尔邀请乔布斯到他的办公室；根据“Their first step was to come up with a name for the company.”可知，最后是乔布斯和朋友为公司想出一个名字。因此正确的顺序是c—b—a—d。故选D。 【62题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Steve told him that he was twelve.”及“Eight years later, Steve Jobs set up a company with his close friend, Steve Wozniak”可知，乔布斯在20岁时和最亲密的朋友创立了自己的公司。故选C。 C Do you love to live in a big house or a small one? “Tiny homes”—houses that are around 40 or fewer square meters—have become more popular in recent years, with 53% of Americans saying they would consider buying one. Tiny homes are found all over the world, but they’re the most popular in the US, where there are over 10,000. Pre-built (预先建好的) tiny houses are available, though many people choose to build their own. Inside, they often look like regular houses, but much smaller. There might be a small open kitchen and a living area, a bathroom and a bed that can be reached by a ladder (梯子). Most houses are built on trailers, making it easy for people to change the location. And this kind of tiny house is very popular in the US. One big advantage of a tiny house is cost. According to a study, in 2018 the average cost of an 8.5-meter-long tiny home was＄65,000, while a normal home in the US cost an average of ＄272, 000. Some people also like tiny homes because they are good for the environment. They need less energy to heat, and they often use sun’s energy, or are built using green and local materials. Some people choose to live in a tiny house because they want a smaller home after they retire (退休) or because they’re trying to cut down their cost of living. For many, though, they just can’t afford anything bigger. Carwyn Lloyd Jones, who teaches a course on building tiny homes in the UK, thought that these types of houses seem to become popular to young people. “It’s because they want to have that space to live in, but they are not necessarily able to afford the land to build a full-size house,” he said. 63. In what way does the writer tell us how popular tiny houses are in recent years? A. By using numbers. B. By giving examples. C. By writing about his own experiences. D. By comparing the different types of houses. 64. What can’t be found in a tiny house? A. A bed. B. A kitchen. C. A bathroom. D. A swimming pool. 65. What does the underlined word “trailers” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Countries. B. Floors. C. Rooms. D. Trucks. 66. What’s the advantage of a tiny house? A. It costs too much money. B. People usually sell it after they retire. C. It is harmful to the environment. D. Some people are able to afford to build it. 67. What would be the best title for the passage? A. How do Americans Protect the Environment? B. Why do People Choose to Live in Tiny Homes? C. How do People Save Money to Build a House? D. What will Young People’s Life Be Like in the US? 【答案】63. A 64. D 65. D 66. D 67. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了近年来流行的小型住宅的相关情况，包括其流行程度、结构特点、成本优势、环保特性以及受欢迎的原因等。 【63题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“‘Tiny homes’—houses that are around 40 or fewer square meters—have become more popular in recent years, with 53% of Americans saying they would consider buying one. Tiny homes are found all over the world, but they’re the most popular in the US, where there are over 10,000.”可知，作者通过使用具体的数字（53%的美国人表示会考虑购买，美国有超过10,000所小型住宅）来告诉我们近年来小型住宅的流行程度。故选A。 【64题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Inside, they often look like regular houses, but much smaller. There might be a small open kitchen and a living area, a bathroom and a bed that can be reached by a ladder.”可知，小型住宅内通常会有一个小型开放式厨房、一个客厅、一个浴室和一张可以通过梯子到达的床。而游泳池并没有在文中提及。故选D。 【65题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章第二段“Most houses are built on trailers, making it easy for people to change the location.”可知，大多数小型住宅都是建在“trailers”上，这使得人们可以很容易地改变住宅的位置。结合常识，能够方便移动的住宅通常是建在拖车（trucks）上的，因此可以推断“trailers”在此处意为“拖车”。故选D。 【66题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“One big advantage of a tiny house is cost...Some people choose to live in a tiny house because they want a smaller home after they retire or because they’re trying to cut down their cost of living. For many, though, they just can’t afford anything bigger.”可知，小型住宅的一个显著优势是成本较低，这使得一些人能够负担得起建造或购买它。故选D。 【67题详解】 最佳标题题。根据文章内容可知，本文主要介绍了近年来流行的小型住宅的相关情况，并探讨了人们选择居住在小型住宅的原因。因此，B选项“Why do People Choose to Live in Tiny Homes?”（为什么人们选择居住在小型住宅里？）是最佳标题。故选B。 D Hosting a dinner party can be difficult.

Good hosting begins with good invitations.”可知，通过制作好的邀请函，你可以给客人一个好的第一印象。故选C。 【70题详解】 篇章结构题。文章第一段总述了举办晚宴的困难以及提出了一些成为一名更好宴会主人的方法；接着第二段到第六段分别从制作邀请函、了解客人、餐桌布置、交谈艺术和表达感谢等五个方面具体阐述了这些方法。因此，文章的结构是总分结构，对应选项D（①为总述，②③④⑤⑥为分述）。故选D。 【71题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“make them with warmth”以及后文提到的通过有意义的交谈创造温暖和友谊的氛围，可以推断出让客人感到温暖是更好的做法，所以B选项正确。故选B。 【72题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Setting the table helps to create the atmosphere for the meal.”可知，布置餐桌的目的是为了为用餐创造一个好的氛围。故选B。 E You must have heard of “city bu city” (meaning city or not city). ____73____ Millions of foreigners (外国人) are visiting China and posting their travel videos.

It shows how kindness can create a cycle of love and support. When Chen needed help, the villagers selflessly offered it, and later he repaid them by helping them become wealthy. This teaches us that helping others is not only a virtue but also a way to build a better society. I once experienced similar warmth. Last year, I fell off my bike on my way to school. A stranger stopped, helped me up, and even bandaged my knee. Though I never saw him again, his kindness stayed with me. Later, I volunteered to tutor a classmate who struggled with math. Seeing her improve made me realize how small acts can change lives. From these experiences, I learned that helping others brings joy to both sides. In the future, I will continue to spread kindness, whether by supporting friends or helping strangers. 【解析】 【详解】[总体分析] ①题材：本文是一篇材料作文； ②时态：一般现在时与一般过去时为主； ③提示：写作要点已给出，考生注意不要遗漏要点，并适当添加细节，突出重点。 [写作步骤] 第一步，介绍对这个故事的看法； 第二步，介绍你生活中难忘的互帮互助的经历； 第三步，谈谈你的收获及打算。 [亮点词汇] ①not only…but also不仅……而且 ②similar相似的 ③continue to继续去 [高分句型] ①It shows how kindness can create a cycle of love and support.（宾语从句） ②Later, I volunteered to tutor a classmate who struggled with math.（定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 丰城中学2024-2025学年下学期初三期中考试试卷 英语 一、听力测试(每小题1分,共20分) A)请听下面5段对话,每段对话后有一小题,从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后,你都将有10秒钟的时间回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话读两遍。 1.

Setting off firecracker Firecrackers have a history of more than 2,000 years. It is said that people burnt bamboo joints (节) to make it blast (爆炸) to drive away the beast named Nian in ancient China.

Ring!” The telephone rang for a long time in Bill Hewlett’s big house. Bill was the boss of a large computer company called Hewlett-Packard. At that time computers had already existed (存在) but they were big machines that cost a lot of money. Bill answered the telephone angrily. He did not like being troubled while he was reading his newspaper. A young voice on the other line said, “My name is Steve Jobs. I’m a member of the Hewlett-Packard Explorers’ Club. I went to visit one of your company’s labs and was greatly surprised by the 9100A computer. I’ve never seen anything so wonderful!” He stopped for a while and continued, “I’m looking for some computer parts to build a frequency counter (计频器). Well, I think you might be able to help me.” There was a short silence. Then, Bill asked the young boy about his age. Steve told him that he was twelve. There was another silence. Impressed by the boy, Bill decided to help this boy. Bill invited Steve to his office and a few days later, Bill gave Steve what he needed. Steve was also offered a vacation job in one of Bill’s labs. Eight years later, Steve Jobs set up a company with his close friend, Steve Wozniak. Their first step was to come up with a name for the company. It is said that Steve Jobs loved apples and had worked on an apple farm before.

C Do you love to live in a big house or a small one? “Tiny homes”—houses that are around 40 or fewer square meters—have become more popular in recent years, with 53% of Americans saying they would consider buying one. Tiny homes are found all over the world, but they’re the most popular in the US, where there are over 10,000. Pre-built (预先建好的) tiny houses are available, though many people choose to build their own. Inside, they often look like regular houses, but much smaller. There might be a small open kitchen and a living area, a bathroom and a bed that can be reached by a ladder (梯子). Most houses are built on trailers, making it easy for people to change the location. And this kind of tiny house is very popular in the US. One big advantage of a tiny house is cost. According to a study, in 2018 the average cost of an 8.5-meter-long tiny home was＄65,000, while a normal home in the US cost an average of ＄272, 000. Some people also like tiny homes because they are good for the environment. They need less energy to heat, and they often use sun’s energy, or are built using green and local materials. Some people choose to live in a tiny house because they want a smaller home after they retire (退休) or because they’re trying to cut down their cost of living. For many, though, they just can’t afford anything bigger. Carwyn Lloyd Jones, who teaches a course on building tiny homes in the UK, thought that these types of houses seem to become popular to young people. “It’s because they want to have that space to live in, but they are not necessarily able to afford the land to build a full-size house,” he said. 63. In what way does the writer tell us how popular tiny houses are in recent years? A. By using numbers. B. By giving examples. C. By writing about his own experiences. D. By comparing the different types of houses. 64. What can’t be found in a tiny house? A. A bed. B. A kitchen. C. A bathroom. D. A swimming pool. 65 What does the underlined word “trailers” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Countries. B. Floors. C. Rooms. D. Trucks. 66. What’s the advantage of a tiny house? A. It costs too much money. B. People usually sell it after they retire. C. It is harmful to the environment. D. Some people are able to afford to build it. 67. What would be the best title for the passage? A. How do Americans Protect the Environment? B. Why do People Choose to Live in Tiny Homes? C. How do People Save Money to Build a House? D. What will Young People’s Life Be Like in the US? D Hosting a dinner party can be difficult. Here are some ways to be a better host and make sure that guests have a great time at your party. Make invitations by yourself. Invitations are the first impression (印象) your guests will have for your party. Good hosting begins with good invitations. Whether using computers or traditional paper invitations, make them with warmth. Don’t just make your invitations only show the time and place, and put in some fun jokes or illustrations (插图)! Your guests will be more excited about the dinner. Know your guests. Understanding your guests’ interests helps you create an experience that resonates (引起共鸣) with each guest. There is so much to learn about each guest. Not only the food they enjoy, but also music tastes and drink choices are needed considering. Table setting. Setting the table helps to create the atmosphere (氛围) for the meal. As you prepare for dinner, pay attention to fresh flowers, fine plates, fine glasses and so on. Whether your dinner party is a family activity or a common party, the good table setting becomes a necessary part of the visual (视觉) experience, inviting guests to enjoy the festive atmosphere. The art of conversation. Hosting is an artful dance of conversations and letting guests have talks with one another. As the party begins, create an atmosphere of warmth and friendship through meaningful conversations. Be really interested in your guests, creating discussions that bring joy and fun. Be thankful. As the party comes to an end, show thanks for your guests’ coming. Send a simple thank-you and give a more personal touch, such as a follow-up message. Doing these can do good to the friendships between you and your guests. 68. What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A. Friendships. B. Conversations. C. Invitations. D. Impressions. 69. How can you give your guest a good first impression according to the passage? A. By creating discussions. B. By giving a follow-up message. C. By making good invitations. D.
