It’s now one of the most famous places of interest in China. Looking down on the Forbidden City, you’ll be surprised to find that it’s a symmetrical layout (对称布局). The Taihe Hall, the Zhonghe Hall and the Baohe Hall make up the Forbidden City’s central line (中轴线). There are more than 70 palaces with over 9,000 rooms on both sides of it. Yellow is its dominant color, and many things are painted with this color. The Taihe Hall is the biggest palace of China, and it is made of wood. There is wide open space in front of it, surrounded (围绕) by railings (栏杆). Under the railings, there are some stone dragons. During the rainy season, you can see a wonder of thousands of dragons spitting (吐) water. In recent years, the 600-year-old Forbidden City has become famous through the Internet.

Is it possible that you’ve been looking at math in the wrong way? March 14 is International Day of Math. Teenagers interviewed Li Xing, a math professor (教授) at NingXia University. We asked if math can be beautiful and fun. Here’s what he said. Numbers are beautiful Many people today want to have beautiful looks. But there is math hidden in beautiful human bodies. Measure (测量) the length (长度) from your head to your belly button (肚脐) and from your belly button to your feet. The ratio (比例) of these two numbers is always around 0.618. This is the golden ratio (黄金比例), which can be seen everywhere, like in nature, music and paintings. In Chinese poems (诗歌), we can also see the beauty of numbers. As Li Bai wrote, “I’ve sailed a thousand miles through Gorges in a day (千里江陵一日还)”, “My skiff has left ten thousand mountains far away (轻舟已过万重山)”. “A thousand miles in one day”, “ten thousand mountains”—all these numbers show how fast Li Bai traveled and how happy he felt. Numbers give us freedom (自由) to imagine. Formulas (公式) are beautiful There are many amazing formulas. For example, in a right-angled triangle (直角三角形), the square (平方) of the longest side is equal (等于) to the sum (和) of the squares of the other two sides. How neat (简洁的)! Just as the Chinese-American mathematician (数学家) Shiing-shen Chern said, “Math is fun!” 16. How much is the golden ratio? A. 0.618. B. 0.681. C. 6.18. D. 0.168. 17. If the ratio of a thing is around 0.618, ________. A. it has a golden color B. it will look like a human body C. it is as long as a person’s leg D. it can bring us a sense (感觉) of beauty 18. Why does the writer mention Li Bai’s poem in the passage? A. To tell Li Bai is good at math. B. To tell us Li Bai loved travelling fast. C. To show the beauty of numbers in poems. D. To show Li Bai is a good poet. 19. Which formula did the underlined sentence describe in the last paragraph? A. a2-b2=(a+b)(a-b) B. a2+b2=c2 C. (a+b)2=a2+2ab+b2 D. (a-b)2=a2-2ab+b2 20. What is the passage mainly about? A Math is hard and important. B. The life of a math professor. C. Math is beautiful and fun. D. The International Day of Math. C 阅读短文，根据短文内容，从短文后面的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。 As we all know, if we want to become a successful learner, it’s quite important to listen to teachers in class. But how should we listen to teachers in class? ___21___ One of the things we need to do is to make sure that our mind doesn’t wander (漫游). It’s easy to start thinking about other things, especially when you’re not interested in the subject. ___22___ Next, listen for the main ideas. If you want to catch every little piece of information, you’ll feel tired and bored. ___23___ Not only does this show respect (尊重) to the teacher, it also helps stop your mind from wandering. What makes you wander? ___24___ Or it could just be someone talking to their neighbors who shouldn’t be. It can even be some birds outside the classroom window, or a group of kids who are talking loudly as they pass the door to your room. Finally, you need to take notes because you can not remember everything the teacher says. You’ll have to take down the notes so that you can study them after class. ___25___ Listening isn’t always easy, but if you follow these simple steps, you’ll be much more successful in your classes.

So make yourself pay attention to what the teacher is saying. D 阅读材料，把五位学生的不好的学习习惯与相应的解决办法A—E进行匹配。 ____26____ Alisa likes doing homework with the TV on. She often stops studying halfway and moves on to interesting TV shows. ____27____ Eric is afraid to ask teachers questions. He just leaves his difficult problems unsolved. ____28____ Jason always finishes his homework in a hurry every time. He seems to be busy with lots of things, but most of them are just a waste of time. ____29____ Cindy always holds the book close to her eyes when she reads. And she can’t see things far from her clearly without wearing her glasses. ____30____ Mark is a quick learner. He’s able to understand what he has learned in a short time. But he forgets it quickly because he seldom (很少) practices it. A. You need to sit upright (挺直地) to make sure that your eyes are not too close to the book.

Small talk means the little things we talk about at the start of a ___31___. In English-speaking countries, people often make small talk about the ___32___: “Nice, isn’t it?” “Terrible weather, isn’t it?” But there is something special about small talk. It must be about something which both people have the same ___33___ about. The purpose (目的) of small talk is to let both people agree on something. This makes meeting people ___34___ and more comfortable. People usually agree about the weather, so it is a ___35___ subject for small talk. But people often disagree about religion (信仰) or politics (政治), so these are not suitable (合适的) subjects for small talk. The subjects for small talk also depend on ___36___ the conversation is taking place (发生). At football matches, people make small talk about the game they are watching: “Great game, isn’t it?” ___37___ bus stops, people may talk about the transportation (交通): “The bus service is terrible, isn’t it?” Greetings and small talk are important parts of conversation in any language. The way people greet each ___38___ and the things they talk about, however, may be ___39___ from one language to another. This shows that there is much more to learn when we learn a language than just the words and the ___40___ of the language. We also have to learn the social behavior (社交行为) of the people who speak it. 五、语法填空（每小题1分, 共10分） 阅读短文，在空白处填入适当的内容（不多于3个单词）或括号内单词的适当形式。 As young students, you have many dreams. These dreams can be very big, such as becoming famous scientists. They can also be small, such as winning ____41____ first place in the race in class. ____42____ you have a dream, what will you do? Do you ever try to achieve your dream? In fact, everyone can make his dream ____43____ (come) true. The first thing you must do ____44____ (be) to keep what your dream is.

There will be difficulties on the way ____47____ your dream. But the biggest difficulty comes from ____48____ (you). You need to decide what is the ____49____ (important) of all. Certainly, studying instead of ____50____ (watch) TV will help you get better result. As you get close to your dream, you may change a lot. It is really good for you to have your own nice dream. 六、阅读表达（每小题2分, 共10分） Think of somebody you really admire. You will probably find that their success didn’t come easily. As “Father of Hybrid Rice (杂交水稻)”, Yuan Longping overcame (克服) great difficulties and spent his whole life working to reduce world hunger and helping to feed the country with the largest population. Wu Mengchao, the “Father of Chinese Hepatobiliary Surgery (肝胆外科)”, worked hard on saving people’s lives for nearly eighty years. He performed more than 16,000 operations (手术) during his life. He held the surgeon’s knife for such a long time that the shape of his fingers changed. Wu once said, “It would be my greatest happiness if I could work at the operating table until my dying day.” In 1969, in order to solve the problem of treating malaria (疟疾), Tu Youyou, a pharmacologist (药学家) took on the job as head of a research team. She and her teammates performed different kinds of experiments (实验). However, the results were disappointing (令人失望的). Instead of giving up, they kept trying. Finally, in 1972, they made it! In 2015, at the age of 85, she received the Nobel Prize. Thomas Edison, the inventor of the light bulb (电灯) believed that every failure (失败) was a step towards success. He once said, “If I find 10,000 ways something won’t work, I haven’t failed. I am not discouraged (泄气), because every wrong try is another step forward.” Sometimes, their success was a surprise, even to themselves. The famous scientist Alexander Fleming said, “When I woke up just after daybreak on 28th September, 1928, I certainly didn’t plan to revolutionize (变革) all medicine by discovering the world’s first antibiotic (抗生素). But I guess that was exactly what I did.” Some people only became successful after their deaths. Not like Pablo Picasso who became famous and very rich during his lifetime, the famous artist Vincent Van Gogh only sold one painting all through his life and that was to a friend. But he kept painting and he painted more than 2,000 artworks in the following ten years. Now his paintings are very popular and they sell for millions of pounds. One thing all these people have in common is holding on to their goals (目标) no matter what happens. 51. How many great people are mentioned (被提及) in the passage? ________________________ 52. How many operations (手术) did Wu Mengchao perform during his life? ________________________ 53. When did Tu Youyou receive the Nobel Prize? ________________________ 54. What do all these great people have in common? ________________________ 55. What can we learn from these great people? ________________________ 七、书面表达（15分） 56. 假如你叫李华, 非常喜欢并擅长英语，而你的同班同学王林却认为英语很难学：背不过单词，背过就忘；总是在语法方面出错；因为发音差而不敢问问题。他为此很烦恼。请你写一封邮件给他一些具体的建议，帮帮他。 要求：针对他的烦恼给出建议。 字数80词左右，邮件的开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数；不要出现真实姓名和学校名称。 Dear Wang Lin, I’m sorry to hear that you have so many difficulties in learning English _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours truly, Li Hua 2024-2025学年度第二学期期中学业水平检测 初三英语试题 第Ⅰ卷（选择题, 共65分） 一、听力（每小题1分, 共15分） （一）录音中有五组对话, 每组对话听两遍, 然后从每小题A、B、C中选出能回答每个问题的正确答案。 1.
