Why does your teacher use songs to teach you English? There is a reason for this. Scientists are studying something between music and remembering a foreign language, like English. “Singing could be a new way of learning, especially for a foreign language. The brain likes to remember things in a catchy and relaxing way. For example, children can remember difficult words quickly when they are in a song” said Dr. Karen Ludke. If children find it difficult to learn foreign languages, this new way may help. On his blog, Dr. Ludke wrote “A listen-and-repeat (重复) singing way can help to learn foreign languages and open the door for future study in this area.” Many language teachers know the importance of music and they often use it in teaching and learning. Hua Zhuying, a teacher at a Chinese language school in Washington DC, likes using songs in teaching Chinese. She said, “I use music all the time to teach children Chinese. For little kids, we use English songs but teach them the Chinese lyrics (歌词). Not only does it work, but it is fun for children.” “Sometimes I think if I learned English that way when I was young, maybe I could speak English much better.” Hua Zhuying adds. Our brain likes music in learning languages, especially for remembering. If you are still having problems in learning a language, why not try singing it out? 1．Why does the writer ask questions in Paragraph 1? A．To tell a story. B．To give an example. C．To answer questions. D．To interest readers (读者). 2．What does the underlined word “they” refer to (指代)? A．Children. B．Difficult words. C．Foreign languages. D．Scientists. 3．What do we know about Hua Zhuying? A．She is an English and music teacher in China. B．She spoke English much better when she was young. C．She teaches little children Chinese lyrics with English songs. D．She teaches Chinese in English language school in Washington DC． 4．What can we learn from the text? A．Learning foreign languages can open the door for future. B．It’s helpful for children to learn foreign languages in music. C．Teachers should have some special ways to teach students. D．Music helps when we have problems in singing foreign songs. 5．What is the structure of the text? (P= Paragraph) A． B． C． D． 【答案】1．D 2．B 3．C 4．B 5．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述了音乐和记忆外语之间的关系，我们的大脑在学习语言时喜欢音乐，因此通过音乐来学习语言对掌握这门语言有很大帮助。 1．推理判断题。根据文中“Scientists are studying something between music and remembering a foreign language, like English.”可知，作者在第一段提问是为了引出下文关于音乐和记忆外语之间关系的科学研究，引起读者的兴趣。故选D。 2．词义猜测题。根据“For example, children can remember difficult words quickly when they are in a song”可知，此处的they指代的是“difficult words”，即孩子们能很快记住歌曲中的难词。故选B。 3．细节理解题。根据“Hua Zhuying, a teacher at a Chinese language school in Washington DC, likes using songs in teaching Chinese. She said, ‘I use music all the time to teach children Chinese. For little kids, we use English songs but teach them the Chinese lyrics (歌词).

People have roots too. If you get to the root of a problem, you will solve it. It’s the same thing with words. Dig deeply into a big, unfamiliar word, and you will understand where it comes from. ②As readers, especially those reading in a second language, we need to deal with the text as if we are detectives (侦探) looking for information to unlock the unknown. Like any good detective arriving on the crime scene, the first thing to do when meeting a new and difficult word is to judge the situation, to look at everything that is known and see if it helps us to understand what it means. ③As you know, prefixes (前缀) and suffixes (后缀) can be added to the beginning or end of words to change their meanings. Know them, and you will have the word building power. But root words are the key. Take time to learn a few of these, put them in your memory, and you will become a master word detective. ④Let’s look at one common root word used in English. “Alter” from the Latin word means “other”. When you meet this root word, you know that the bigger word has something to do with “other”. Examine the word “alternate”. Can you find the Latin root in it? ·If you and your friend like to eat out, first you pay and the other pays the next time. You are alternating paying. ·If you go to the movies on alternate Saturdays, you go on one Saturday, but not the other Saturday. ·If you have no alternative, you have no other choice. ⑤Learn as many root words as possible in the language you are studying. Then use your “rooting for words” skills. Like any new skill, practice and hard work are always paid back. 1．How does the author explain his ideas about root words? A．By giving a fact. B．By taking an example. C．By telling a story. D．By having a discussion. 2．If Jim and Lily go to the movies, which one below is “alternating paying”? A．They each pay half. B．Jim pays every time. C．They take turns to pay. D．Their parents pay for them. 3．“Sen” from the Latin word means “old”. Which word uses this Latin root? A．My brother is my senior by two years. B．He was ill so he was absent from school. C．A criminal was sentenced to death by law. D．60 students were present at the sports meeting. 4．Which of the following shows the structure of the passage? (①= Paragraph 1     ②= Paragraph 2 …) A． B． C． D． 5．What’s the best title for the text? A．Study About Some Root Words B．How to Be a Detective C．A Way to Learn New Words D．Interesting Prefixes and Suffixes 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．A 4．A 5．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，文章围绕单词学习展开，详细介绍了通过了解单词的词根、前缀、后缀等来理解单词含义的方法。 1．细节理解题。根据“Let’s look at one common root word used in English.”可知，在文章的第四段中，作者以“alter”这个常见的英语词根为例进行了详细的解释。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据“If you and your friend like to eat out, first you pay and the other pays the next time. You are alternating paying.”可知，如果你和你的朋友喜欢出去吃饭，第一次你付账，下次他付账。你们是在轮流付账。故选C。 3．推理判断题。根据“My brother is my senior by two years.”可知，我的哥哥比我大两岁，使用了词根“Sen”。故选A。 4．篇章结构题。第一段引入词根的概念；第二段提出阅读时像侦探一样分析词汇；第三段介绍词缀和词根的重要性，第四段举例说明词根“alter”；第五段总结学习词根的方法。故选A。 5．最佳标题题。通读全文可知，文章围绕单词学习展开，详细介绍了通过了解单词的词根、前缀、后缀等来理解单词含义的方法。故选C。 （24-25九年级·江西九江·开学考试）How did you learn to speak Chinese? By copying how the people around you (like your parents) spoke, right? Children throughout the world pick up their first language in this way. The environment is important for you to learn a language. What if you were raised in an environment where people spoke hundreds of languages? Let’s imagine a boy. He grows up in a global airport, talking to visitors from all over the world every day. Could such a child later be able to speak hundreds of languages? According to language researchers, the answer to that question is “probably not”. One problem is time. If you are learning 365 languages in a year, you can’t have more than one full day to learn each one. Nobody can learn a new language within just one day. But there is another more important thing: what you want. Your mind isn’t a sponge. It doesn’t naturally take in everything around you. It pays attention to the world and develops feelings about it. That plays a big role in how you learn. Let’s go back to the imaginary airport above. If the flight is put off suddenly, there are some people who have to stay at the airport. A person is arguing with workers in a strange language, and the child may heed. At the same time, another person is politely talking with workers in a strange language. And he helps other people solve the problem. Everyone praises him. What will the child think of the two people? He may think the second person is cool and may want to learn that person’s language. So to learn lots of languages, you don’t just need a proper environment. Time and a desire to pick up those languages matter a lot, too. 1．What is the common thing about children’s learning their first language? A．They learn everything quickly. B．They don’t know things they learn. C．They are greatly influenced by people around them. D．They usually start from copying everything they hear. 2．How does the writer support his opinion in Paragraph 2? A．By telling stories. B．By listing numbers. C．By using sayings. D．By giving examples. 3．What can we learn from Paragraph 3? A．Learning all the languages is impossible. B．Learning a language needs full attention. C．Learning languages needs time and attention. D．Learning a new language in a day will come true. 4．What does the underlined word “heed” in Paragraph 4 mean? A．hurt B．notice C．break D．show 5．What’s the writer’s purpose for writing the passage? A．To discuss what influence the language learning. B．To introduce which the best way is to learn languages. C．To explain how rules in learning languages developed. D．To show why environment is important in language learning. 【答案】1．C 2．D 3．C 4．B 5．A 【导语】本文讨论了语言学习的重要因素，尤其是环境、时间和学习的愿望对学习语言的影响。通过一个虚构的场景，作者阐述了为什么仅有一个好的环境是不足够的，学习语言还需要足够的时间和内心的渴望。 1．细节理解题。根据“By copying how the people around you (like your parents) spoke, right? Children throughout the world pick up their first language in this way. The environment is important for you to learn a language.”可知，孩子们通过模仿周围人说话来学习第一语言，环境对语言学习很重要，由此可见，孩子们学习第一语言的共同点是深受周围人的影响。故选C。 2．细节理解题。根据“Let’s imagine a boy. He grows up in a global airport, talking to visitors from all over the world every day.”可知，作者通过举例来支持观点，故选D。 3．推理判断题。根据“you don’t just need a proper environment. Time and a desire to pick up those languages matter a lot, too.”可推测，学习语言需要时间和专注，故选C。 4．词句猜测题。根据“a person is arguing with workers in a strange language, and the child may heed”可知，一个人用奇怪的语言和工人们争吵，这个孩子可能会注意到，由此推测，heeding的意思是“注意、留心”，故选B。 5．推理判断题。文章通过讨论环境、时间和兴趣对语言学习的影响，旨在探讨影响语言学习的因素，故选A。 （24-25九年级·山东济南·阶段练习）Julie was worried about her European history test on Friday. She loved poetry but struggled (奋斗) to memorize historical facts and dates. She told her friend Marcus, “I’ve never been good at history.” “Calm down,” Marcus told her. “You’ll do fine!” That night, Julie tried to study with her brother Joey, but she failed to answer Joey’s questions correctly. Her brother said she hadn’t studied enough, so she felt upset. The next day, Julie decided to study in the library. She tried to make sense of all the facts and dates. But she found it impossible for her. Then her classmate Maria came over. “Want to study together?” Maria asked. Julie thought for a while and joined her. There were several index (索引) cards and some colored pencils in front of Maria. Each card showed a colorful doodle (涂鸦). Julie looked at her with doubt. “I thought you were studying history.” “I like art, and the doodles help me recall facts. This is how I study.” said Maria. Maria asked, “What would you call someone who lives in Flanders?” After looking up the answer to the question, she suddenly had an idea. If Maria could use her love of art to study, why couldn’t she use her love of poetry? “See the flamingo (火烈鸟) home to Flanders!” Julie said loudly. Maria looked excited. “Yes! A Fleming lives in Flanders!” Next, Julie read a question about the Spanish Armada (西班牙无敌舰队). The answer was 1588, but Maria said she didn’t know how to remember it. Julie smiled and wrote, “1588 made England celebrate.” “Wonderful!” Maria cheered, “Hey, want to be study partners?” “Of course,” said Julie. Suddenly, studying didn’t seem so impossible after all. 1．What’s the meaning of the underlined phrase “make sense of”? A．Speak loudly. B．Think quickly. C．Listen carefully. D．Understand clearly. 2．How did Maria learn history? A．By using colforful doodles. B．By reading loudly. C．By making colored notes. D．By reciting repeatedly. 3．Which is the correct order of the events? a. Julie and Maria became study partners. b. Julie couldn’t answer Joey’s questions correctly. c. Julie was doubtful about Maria’s study methods. d. Julie had found her own way of learning history. e. Julie was worried about her European history test. A．e-b-c-d-a B．b-e-a-d-c C．e-d-c-b-a D．b-d-a-e-c 4．What do you think of Maria? A．Brave. B．Creative. C．Humorous. D．Strict. 5．What might happen after the end of the story? A．Maria taught Julie how to draw better. B．Julie decided to give up studying together. C．Julie found out she did not like history at all. D．Julie and Maria passed the test with high scores. 【答案】1．D 2．A 3．A 4．B 5．D 【导语】本文主要讲Julie通过与Maria合作，利用自己对诗歌的热爱找到了学习历史的新方法，克服了历史考试的焦虑。 1．词句猜测题。根据“She tried to make sense of all the facts and dates. But she found it impossible for her.”可知她尝试去弄清楚事实，但是发现不可能，“make sense of”与“Understand clearly.”意思相近，故选D。 2．细节理解题。 根据“Maria said, ‘I like art, and the doodles help me recall facts. This is how I study.’”可知Maria通过使用彩色涂鸦来帮助记忆历史知识，因此她学习历史的方式是“By using colorful doodles.”，故选A。 3．细节理解题。 根据文章开头“Julie was worried about her European history test on Friday. ”可知第一个是“Julie担心她的欧洲历史考试”，排除BD；根据第四段“That night, Julie tried to study with her brother Joey, but she failed to answer Joey’s questions correctly.”可知接下来Julie无法正确回答Joey的问题，对应的是b，故选A。 4．细节理解题。根据Maria使用涂鸦来帮助记忆历史知识，并且鼓励Julie用诗歌来学习，可以看出Maria是一个有创造力的人，因此对她的评价是“Creative.”，故选B。 5．推理判断题。 根据文章结尾“Suddenly, studying didn’t seem so impossible after all.”可知Julie和Maria成为学习伙伴，并且Julie突然觉得学习不再那么困难，可以推测她们可能会在考试中取得好成绩，因此最可能发生的事情是“Julie and Maria passed the test with high scores.”，故选D。 （24-25九年级·湖北襄阳·阶段练习）Recently, a woman from Shenyang, Liaoning, became really popular on TikTok.

Today, I decide to write about some challenges when trying to learn just a little Putonghua. When I remember words in pinyin, I’m amazed that most of the words are no more than four letters, which may be easy for speaking but actually doesn’t help with memory. The simpleness makes a lot of words seem similar, in fact, they’re not. Even the same word may have 20 different meanings, not to mention the changes created by the four tones (音调)! Another thing about pinyin is that an English speaker can pronounce most of the sounds just as he or she would speak English. But when he or she meets “he” (huh) or “zi” (zuh) or “qi” (chur), it becomes difficult. Don’t even try those words if you can’t pronounce them well. In the newsroom, I try to learn the Chinese that I usually hear: tou ban (page 1), hao le (it’s done), fa le ba (send it). My goal is to not cause lots of laughter when I try something in Chinese, but let the Chinese listener guess the pronunciation after a three-to-four-second stop. I also find an interesting thing. That is an English speaker who has learnt Putonghua well can’t understand Cantonese (广东话). Sure, people from New York, Boston, Chicago and Atlanta all have different accents (口音), but we can understand each other for the most part. 1．From Paragraph 2, we can know ________. A．The writer can both pronounce Chinese words and remember them B．The writer can neither pronounce Chinese words nor remember them C．The writer finds it not easy to pronounce Chinese words in pinyin D．The writer finds it not easy to remember Chinese words in pinyin 2．Which of the following words best describes the writer’s feeling in the last paragraph?

When you read, you can not only learn some new words, but also learn how to use these English words. When you read, it gives you a good example for writing. Good reading tips: Try to read at the right level (水平). Read something that you can (more or less) understand. If you need to stop every three words to use a dictionary, it is not interesting. Try to increase the number of your new words. If there are four or five new words on a page, write them in your notebook. But you don’t have to write them while you read. Instead, try to guess their meanings as you read: mark them with a pen. Then come back when you have finished reading to look them up in a dictionary and write them in your own vocabulary book. Then try to remember them. Try to read regularly. For example, read for a short time once a day. Fifteen minutes every day is better than two hours every Sunday. Fix (固定) a time to read and keep to it. You could read for fifteen minutes when you go to bed, or when you get up or at lunchtime. Read what interests you. Choose a book or a magazine about a subject that you like, because you are going to spend time and money reading it. So, choose an interesting book. You can also read newspapers.

After moving to a new city, I was looking for things to do which can help me to make some new friends. I noticed that a community school was offering Chinese evening classes. Without much thought, I signed up for a Chinese class. There was one lesson a week, each lasting 90 minutes. Mr. Kong, the teacher, was full of energy. For each class, he would teach us hundreds of new words. After each lesson, I felt it too difficult to continue. Luckily, after a few months, I got used to this. Between classes, I would try to review what I had learned until I understood it. Gradually (逐渐地), I began to realise that the more work I put into Chinese study, the more interesting I found it. To make further progress, I planned to find a Chinese student to help me with my Chinese. The University of Leeds had more than 600 Chinese students. So it was not difficult to find one. Soon I met my new Chinese friend, Li Hua. He helped me practice my spoken Chinese and go over everything I had learned in class. Finally, I made it. Although there are so many words and idioms (习语) in Chinese, I am confident to get over any difficulty and become good at Chinese. 1．Why did the writer learn Chinese? A．To build a community school. B．To make new friends. C．To help with his work. D．To move to China. 2．What can we learn from paragraph 2? A．The writer found the lesson easy at first. B．The writer took the Chinese lesson every day.

But continuing learning after finishing school can help you become a lifelong learner. ② We can benefit a lot from being a lifelong learner. And making the effort pay s off personally and professionally. On a personal level, learning can be fun. It can give you something interesting to talk about. And it is good for your brain. Just as exercise makes your body stronger, your mind becomes sharper (更灵敏的) when you use it. ③ Being a lifelong learner can also help you with your work or job. Knowledge in other areas can help you develop creative ideas in your present job. Also, becoming an expert in an area outside of your present job allows you to take a job in another field if you want to. ④ So how do you become a lifelong learner? First, you need to decide to keep on learning new things even when it isn’t easy. It may help if you find friends who will encourage your learning. Second, you can find time to learn during your day.

It is a way of thinking that helps you to avoid drawing incorrect conclusions. There are usually four steps in the scientific method, including observation (观察), hypothesis (假设), experiment and conclusion. The first step is usually observation and asking a question about your observation. For example, you had a sick stomach and ate a piece of chocolate. Two hours later, you observed that you felt better. Here you can ask a question such as “What makes a sick stomach feel better?” The next step is to state a possible hypothesis, such as “A piece of chocolate makes a sick stomach feel better.” A good hypothesis includes three things: it can explain the observations; it can be tested and it will usually predict new conclusions. The third step is the experiment, to test the hypothesis. An experiment is a test which will either support or challenge the hypothesis. The hypothesis will then be true or false. The final step is to think about what happened when you tested the hypothesis and draw a conclusion. The conclusion will either clearly support the hypothesis or it will not. If the results support the hypothesis, a conclusion can be written. If they don’t support the hypothesis, you may choose to change the hypothesis or write a new one based on what was learned during the experiment. 1．The scientific method can help you ________. A．get rid of a sick stomach B．pass a test C．draw correct conclusions D．feel better 2．What does a good hypothesis include? ①explaining the observations        ②being tested ③doing experiments        ④predicting new conclusions A．①②③ B．②③④ C．①③④ D．①②④ 3．What can we learn about the experiment from the passage? A．An experiment can offer you a learning method. B．An experiment is a test to either support or challenge a hypothesis. C．An experiment is only used when scientists are trying to prove a hypothesis. D．An experiment does not have to be part of the scientific method. 4．What does the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refer to? A．The conclusion. B．The observation. C．The hypothesis. D．The question. 5．Which sentence can best express the main idea of the passage? A．What makes a sick stomach feel better? B．The conclusion will sometimes clearly support the hypothesis. C．How do the four basic steps in the scientific method work? D．Learning the scientific method may help students succeed in science. 【答案】1．C 2．D 3．B 4．A 5．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了科学方法包括四个基本步骤：观察、假设、实验和结论。 1．细节理解题。根据“It is a way of thinking that helps you to avoid drawing incorrect conclusions.”可知，科学方法可以帮助你得出正确的结论。故选C。 2．细节理解题。根据“A good hypothesis includes three things: it can explain the observations; it can be tested and it will usually predict new conclusions.”可知，一个好的假设包括三件事：它可以解释观察结果、它可以被测试、它通常会预测新的结论。故选D。 3．细节理解题。根据“An experiment is a test which will either support or challenge the hypothesis.”可知，实验是支持或挑战假设的测试。故选B。 4．词句猜测题。根据“The conclusion will either clearly support the hypothesis or it will not.”可知，结论要么明确支持假设，要么不支持，因此“it”指代前面的“The conclusion”。故选A。 5．主旨大意题。根据“There are usually four steps in the scientific method, including observation, hypothesis, experiment and conclusion.”可知，本文主要介绍了科学方法的四个步骤，即科学方法的四个基本步骤是如何工作的。故选C。 （2025·江苏扬州·三模） The 2024 Nobel Prize in Physics surprisingly didn’t go to a typical physicist, instead, to two pioneers in machine learning: John J. Hopfield and Geoffrey E. Hinton. What they did was to use principles from physics to make discoveries in machine learning, which pushed the development of Al. This is a perfect example of joining ideas from different subjects to achieve a breakthrough (突破). ________ In simple terms, cross-disciplinary learning is about not sticking to just one subject. It means being curious and open to ideas from different fields—whether it’s science, art, history or technology—and using that knowledge to improve our own understanding. Cross-disciplinary learning is nothing new. We have seen many examples over the centuries. Even the ancient Greeks practiced it. They believed that music, math and astronomy (天文学) were interconnected. This helped them make groundbreaking discoveries. Great minds like Leonardo da Vinci, Isaac Newton and Zhang Heng gave us amazing and influential creations because they were inventors, scientists, mathematicians, engineers and more, all at the same time. These inventors used knowledge from many different fields. As they proved, great achievements often come from thinking beyond the boundaries of a single subject. This is why, nowadays, schools are pushing cross-disciplinary studies. They hope that by drawing from multiple areas, students can contribute to different fields and make a meaningful influence. Cross-disciplinary learning can help you gain new opinions, find creative solutions and, most importantly, better prepare you to deal with the complex challenges of tomorrow. You never know where inspiration (灵感) might come from. Sometimes the best ideas are found in the most unexpected places. So, go ahead, mix it up, learn from everything, and see how far it takes you! 1．Which sentence should go into ________ in Paragraph 1? A．It’s cross-disciplinary learning at its best. B．This means AI is the new start of physics. C．The award brings attention to machine learning. D．The breakthrough is cross-disciplinary learning. 2．What can we learn about cross-disciplinary learning from the passage? A．It was first created and practiced by ancient Greeks. B．It helps find out where your inspiration come from. C．It means being open to science, art, history and technology. D．It contributes to thinking beyond the boundaries of a subject. 3．Why does the writer mention great minds in Paragraph 4? A．To show how clever they were. B．To tell how they made inventions. C．To explain why schools push cross-disciplinary learning. D．To introduce how cross-disciplinary learning developed. 4．Which of the four students is practicing cross-disciplinary learning? A．Chen Xi does physics homework in a geography class. B．Zhang Jia uses math knowledge to solve a biology problem. C．Wang Yi introduces paper-cutting to exchange students in English. D．Li Na likes to listen to music while doing a chemistry experiment. 【答案】1．A 2．D 3．C 4．B 【导语】本文主要介绍跨学科学习。 1．推理判断题。根据“This is a perfect example of joining ideas from different subjects to achieve a breakthrough (突破).”可知，这是一个将不同学科中的观点融合在一起从而取得突破的绝佳范例，此处说的是跨学科学习的最佳状态。故选A。 2．推理判断题。根据“As they proved, great achievements often come from thinking beyond the boundaries of a single subject. This is why, nowadays, schools are pushing cross-disciplinary studies. They hope that by drawing from multiple areas, students can contribute to different fields and make a meaningful influence.”可知，重大成就往往源于超越单一学科范畴的思考，学校推动跨学科研究是希望通过融合多个领域的知识，让学生能够为不同的领域做出贡献，并产生有意义的影响。选项D“它有助于超越主题的界限进行思考”符合语境，故选D。 3．推理判断题。根据“Great minds like Leonardo da Vinci, Isaac Newton and Zhang Heng gave us amazing and influential creations because they were inventors, scientists, mathematicians, engineers and more, all at the same time. These inventors used knowledge from many different fields.”可知，这些发明家运用了来自众多不同领域的知识，作者提到这些名人是为了解释学校为何推行跨学科教学。故选C。 4．推理判断题。跨学科学习指的是不拘泥于一门学科，利用来自不同领域的知识提高自己的理解和找到创造性的解决方案。选项B“张佳用数学知识解决了一个生物问题”与之相符，故选B。 2 助力新课程，周周有练习，月月有重点！ 1 助力新课程，周周有练习，月月有重点！ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2025-2026学年一线教师制作英语同步精品系列资料，名师遴选！ 2025-2026学年一线教师制作英语同步精品系列资料，名师遴选！ 学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________ Unit1 单元话题（学习方法策略） 阅读理解进阶练15篇（真题+模拟） 说明：此专题分三个难度层次，基础入门训练（校考题）<进阶拓展训练（25中考模拟）< 能力综合实践（真题及押题预测），老师根据学生实际情况进行针对性难度训练。 基础入门训练5篇 （24-25九年级上·湖北咸宁·期末）How can you remember a song for a long time? Why does your teacher use songs to teach you English? There is a reason for this. Scientists are studying something between music and remembering a foreign language, like English. “Singing could be a new way of learning, especially for a foreign language. The brain likes to remember things in a catchy and relaxing way. For example, children can remember difficult words quickly when they are in a song” said Dr. Karen Ludke. If children find it difficult to learn foreign languages, this new way may help. On his blog, Dr. Ludke wrote “A listen-and-repeat (重复) singing way can help to learn foreign languages and open the door for future study in this area.” Many language teachers know the importance of music and they often use it in teaching and learning. Hua Zhuying, a teacher at a Chinese language school in Washington DC, likes using songs in teaching Chinese. She said, “I use music all the time to teach children Chinese. For little kids, we use English songs but teach them the Chinese lyrics (歌词). Not only does it work, but it is fun for children.” “Sometimes I think if I learned English that way when I was young, maybe I could speak English much better.” Hua Zhuying adds. Our brain likes music in learning languages, especially for remembering. If you are still having problems in learning a language, why not try singing it out? 1．Why does the writer ask questions in Paragraph 1? A．To tell a story. B．To give an example. C．To answer questions. D．To interest readers (读者). 2．What does the underlined word “they” refer to (指代)? A．Children. B．Difficult words. C．Foreign languages. D．Scientists. 3．What do we know about Hua Zhuying? A．She is an English and music teacher in China. B．She spoke English much better when she was young. C．She teaches little children Chinese lyrics with English songs. D．She teaches Chinese in English language school in Washington DC． 4．What can we learn from the text? A．Learning foreign languages can open the door for future. B．It’s helpful for children to learn foreign languages in music. C．Teachers should have some special ways to teach students. D．Music helps when we have problems in singing foreign songs. 5．What is the structure of the text? (P= Paragraph) A． B． C． D． （24-25九年级·河北邯郸·开学考试）①A tree has roots. People have roots too. If you get to the root of a problem, you will solve it. It’s the same thing with words. Dig deeply into a big, unfamiliar word, and you will understand where it comes from. ②As readers, especially those reading in a second language, we need to deal with the text as if we are detectives (侦探) looking for information to unlock the unknown. Like any good detective arriving on the crime scene, the first thing to do when meeting a new and difficult word is to judge the situation, to look at everything that is known and see if it helps us to understand what it means. ③As you know, prefixes (前缀) and suffixes (后缀) can be added to the beginning or end of words to change their meanings. Know them, and you will have the word building power. But root words are the key. Take time to learn a few of these, put them in your memory, and you will become a master word detective. ④Let’s look at one common root word used in English. “Alter” from the Latin word means “other”. When you meet this root word, you know that the bigger word has something to do with “other”. Examine the word “alternate”. Can you find the Latin root in it? ·If you and your friend like to eat out, first you pay and the other pays the next time. You are alternating paying. ·If you go to the movies on alternate Saturdays, you go on one Saturday, but not the other Saturday. ·If you have no alternative, you have no other choice. ⑤Learn as many root words as possible in the language you are studying. Then use your “rooting for words” skills. Like any new skill, practice and hard work are always paid back. 1．How does the author explain his ideas about root words? A．By giving a fact. B．By taking an example. C．By telling a story. D．By having a discussion. 2．If Jim and Lily go to the movies, which one below is “alternating paying”? A．They each pay half. B．Jim pays every time. C．They take turns to pay. D．Their parents pay for them. 3．“Sen” from the Latin word means “old”. Which word uses this Latin root? A．My brother is my senior by two years. B．He was ill so he was absent from school. C．A criminal was sentenced to death by law. D．60 students were present at the sports meeting. 4．Which of the following shows the structure of the passage? (①= Paragraph 1     ②= Paragraph 2 …) A． B． C． D． 5．What’s the best title for the text? A．Study About Some Root Words B．How to Be a Detective C．A Way to Learn New Words D．Interesting Prefixes and Suffixes （24-25九年级·江西九江·开学考试）How did you learn to speak Chinese? By copying how the people around you (like your parents) spoke, right? Children throughout the world pick up their first language in this way. The environment is important for you to learn a language. What if you were raised in an environment where people spoke hundreds of languages? Let’s imagine a boy. He grows up in a global airport, talking to visitors from all over the world every day. Could such a child later be able to speak hundreds of languages? According to language researchers, the answer to that question is “probably not”. One problem is time. If you are learning 365 languages in a year, you can’t have more than one full day to learn each one. Nobody can learn a new language within just one day. But there is another more important thing: what you want. Your mind isn’t a sponge. It doesn’t naturally take in everything around you. It pays attention to the world and develops feelings about it. That plays a big role in how you learn. Let’s go back to the imaginary airport above. If the flight is put off suddenly, there are some people who have to stay at the airport. A person is arguing with workers in a strange language, and the child may heed. At the same time, another person is politely talking with workers in a strange language. And he helps other people solve the problem. Everyone praises him. What will the child think of the two people? He may think the second person is cool and may want to learn that person’s language. So to learn lots of languages, you don’t just need a proper environment. Time and a desire to pick up those languages matter a lot, too. 1．What is the common thing about children’s learning their first language? A．They learn everything quickly. B．They don’t know things they learn. C．They are greatly influenced by people around them. D．They usually start from copying everything they hear. 2．How does the writer support his opinion in Paragraph 2? A．By telling stories. B．By listing numbers. C．By using sayings. D．By giving examples. 3．What can we learn from Paragraph 3? A．Learning all the languages is impossible. B．Learning a language needs full attention. C．Learning languages needs time and attention. D．Learning a new language in a day will come true. 4．What does the underlined word “heed” in Paragraph 4 mean? A．hurt B．notice C．break D．show 5．What’s the writer’s purpose for writing the passage? A．To discuss what influence the language learning. B．To introduce which the best way is to learn languages. C．To explain how rules in learning languages developed. D．To show why environment is important in language learning. （24-25九年级·山东济南·阶段练习）Julie was worried about her European history test on Friday.

She told her friend Marcus, “I’ve never been good at history.” “Calm down,” Marcus told her. “You’ll do fine!” That night, Julie tried to study with her brother Joey, but she failed to answer Joey’s questions correctly. Her brother said she hadn’t studied enough, so she felt upset. The next day, Julie decided to study in the library. She tried to make sense of all the facts and dates. But she found it impossible for her. Then her classmate Maria came over. “Want to study together?” Maria asked. Julie thought for a while and joined her. There were several index (索引) cards and some colored pencils in front of Maria. Each card showed a colorful doodle (涂鸦). Julie looked at her with doubt. “I thought you were studying history.” “I like art, and the doodles help me recall facts. This is how I study.” said Maria. Maria asked, “What would you call someone who lives in Flanders?” After looking up the answer to the question, she suddenly had an idea. If Maria could use her love of art to study, why couldn’t she use her love of poetry? “See the flamingo (火烈鸟) home to Flanders!” Julie said loudly. Maria looked excited. “Yes! A Fleming lives in Flanders!” Next, Julie read a question about the Spanish Armada (西班牙无敌舰队). The answer was 1588, but Maria said she didn’t know how to remember it. Julie smiled and wrote, “1588 made England celebrate.” “Wonderful!” Maria cheered, “Hey, want to be study partners?” “Of course,” said Julie.

Today, I decide to write about some challenges when trying to learn just a little Putonghua. When I remember words in pinyin, I’m amazed that most of the words are no more than four letters, which may be easy for speaking but actually doesn’t help with memory. The simpleness makes a lot of words seem similar, in fact, they’re not. Even the same word may have 20 different meanings, not to mention the changes created by the four tones (音调)! Another thing about pinyin is that an English speaker can pronounce most of the sounds just as he or she would speak English. But when he or she meets “he” (huh) or “zi” (zuh) or “qi” (chur), it becomes difficult. Don’t even try those words if you can’t pronounce them well. In the newsroom, I try to learn the Chinese that I usually hear: tou ban (page 1), hao le (it’s done), fa le ba (send it). My goal is to not cause lots of laughter when I try something in Chinese, but let the Chinese listener guess the pronunciation after a three-to-four-second stop. I also find an interesting thing. That is an English speaker who has learnt Putonghua well can’t understand Cantonese (广东话). Sure, people from New York, Boston, Chicago and Atlanta all have different accents (口音), but we can understand each other for the most part. 1．From Paragraph 2, we can know ________. A．The writer can both pronounce Chinese words and remember them B．The writer can neither pronounce Chinese words nor remember them C．The writer finds it not easy to pronounce Chinese words in pinyin D．The writer finds it not easy to remember Chinese words in pinyin 2．Which of the following words best describes the writer’s feeling in the last paragraph? A．excited B．tired C．surprised D．bored 3．What does the article mainly tell us? A．Something happens when an English speaker studies Putonghua. B．It’s difficult for an English speaker to learn Putonghua very well. C．An English speaker can understand Putonghua better than Cantonese. D．Some words have many different meanings and tones in Putonghua. 4．What’s the best title of the passage? A．Making My Way to Putonghua B．Reasons for Learning Putonghua C．Teaching others to learn Putonghua D．Suggestions on Learning Putonghua （2025·黑龙江佳木斯·三模）When you are learning English, listening, speaking and writing are important, but reading can also be very helpful.

Good reading tips: Try to read at the right level (水平). Read something that you can (more or less) understand. If you need to stop every three words to use a dictionary, it is not interesting.

Choose a book or a magazine about a subject that you like, because you are going to spend time and money reading it. So, choose an interesting book. You can also read newspapers.

I noticed that a community school was offering Chinese evening classes. Without much thought, I signed up for a Chinese class. There was one lesson a week, each lasting 90 minutes. Mr. Kong, the teacher, was full of energy. For each class, he would teach us hundreds of new words. After each lesson, I felt it too difficult to continue. Luckily, after a few months, I got used to this. Between classes, I would try to review what I had learned until I understood it. Gradually (逐渐地), I began to realise that the more work I put into Chinese study, the more interesting I found it. To make further progress, I planned to find a Chinese student to help me with my Chinese. The University of Leeds had more than 600 Chinese students. So it was not difficult to find one. Soon I met my new Chinese friend, Li Hua. He helped me practice my spoken Chinese and go over everything I had learned in class. Finally, I made it. Although there are so many words and idioms (习语) in Chinese, I am confident to get over any difficulty and become good at Chinese. 1．Why did the writer learn Chinese? A．To build a community school.

It is a way of thinking that helps you to avoid drawing incorrect conclusions. There are usually four steps in the scientific method, including observation (观察), hypothesis (假设), experiment and conclusion. The first step is usually observation and asking a question about your observation. For example, you had a sick stomach and ate a piece of chocolate. Two hours later, you observed that you felt better. Here you can ask a question such as “What makes a sick stomach feel better?” The next step is to state a possible hypothesis, such as “A piece of chocolate makes a sick stomach feel better.” A good hypothesis includes three things: it can explain the observations; it can be tested and it will usually predict new conclusions. The third step is the experiment, to test the hypothesis. An experiment is a test which will either support or challenge the hypothesis. The hypothesis will then be true or false. The final step is to think about what happened when you tested the hypothesis and draw a conclusion. The conclusion will either clearly support the hypothesis or it will not. If the results support the hypothesis, a conclusion can be written. If they don’t support the hypothesis, you may choose to change the hypothesis or write a new one based on what was learned during the experiment. 1．The scientific method can help you ________. A．get rid of a sick stomach B．pass a test C．draw correct conclusions D．feel better 2．What does a good hypothesis include? ①explaining the observations        ②being tested ③doing experiments        ④predicting new conclusions A．①②③ B．②③④ C．①③④ D．①②④ 3．What can we learn about the experiment from the passage? A．An experiment can offer you a learning method. B．An experiment is a test to either support or challenge a hypothesis. C．An experiment is only used when scientists are trying to prove a hypothesis. D．An experiment does not have to be part of the scientific method. 4．What does the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refer to? A．The conclusion. B．The observation. C．The hypothesis. D．The question. 5．Which sentence can best express the main idea of the passage? A．What makes a sick stomach feel better? B．The conclusion will sometimes clearly support the hypothesis. C．How do the four basic steps in the scientific method work? D．Learning the scientific method may help students succeed in science. （2025·江苏扬州·三模） The 2024 Nobel Prize in Physics surprisingly didn’t go to a typical physicist, instead, to two pioneers in machine learning: John J. Hopfield and Geoffrey E. Hinton. What they did was to use principles from physics to make discoveries in machine learning, which pushed the development of Al. This is a perfect example of joining ideas from different subjects to achieve a breakthrough (突破). ________ In simple terms, cross-disciplinary learning is about not sticking to just one subject. It means being curious and open to ideas from different fields—whether it’s science, art, history or technology—and using that knowledge to improve our own understanding. Cross-disciplinary learning is nothing new. We have seen many examples over the centuries. Even the ancient Greeks practiced it. They believed that music, math and astronomy (天文学) were interconnected. This helped them make groundbreaking discoveries. Great minds like Leonardo da Vinci, Isaac Newton and Zhang Heng gave us amazing and influential creations because they were inventors, scientists, mathematicians, engineers and more, all at the same time. These inventors used knowledge from many different fields. As they proved, great achievements often come from thinking beyond the boundaries of a single subject. This is why, nowadays, schools are pushing cross-disciplinary studies. They hope that by drawing from multiple areas, students can contribute to different fields and make a meaningful influence. Cross-disciplinary learning can help you gain new opinions, find creative solutions and, most importantly, better prepare you to deal with the complex challenges of tomorrow. You never know where inspiration (灵感) might come from. Sometimes the best ideas are found in the most unexpected places. So, go ahead, mix it up, learn from everything, and see how far it takes you! 1．Which sentence should go into ________ in Paragraph 1? A．It’s cross-disciplinary learning at its best. B．This means AI is the new start of physics. C．The award brings attention to machine learning. D．The breakthrough is cross-disciplinary learning. 2．What can we learn about cross-disciplinary learning from the passage? A．It was first created and practiced by ancient Greeks. B．It helps find out where your inspiration come from. C．It means being open to science, art, history and technology. D．It contributes to thinking beyond the boundaries of a subject. 3．Why does the writer mention great minds in Paragraph 4? A．To show how clever they were. B．To tell how they made inventions. C．To explain why schools push cross-disciplinary learning. D．To introduce how cross-disciplinary learning developed. 4．Which of the four students is practicing cross-disciplinary learning?
