A. in a cartoon book B. in a story magazine C. in a novel D. in a travel guidebook B I never saw my father home from work late or ill, nor did I ever see my father take a “night out with the boys”. He had no hobbies but just took care of his family. For 22 years, since I left home for college, my father called me every Sunday at 9:00 am. He was always interested in my life-how my family was doing. The calls even came when he and my mother were in Australia, England or Florida. Nine years ago when I bought my first house, my father, 67 years old, spent eight hours a day for three days, painting my house. He would not allow me to pay someone to have it done. All he asked, was a glass of iced tea, and that I hold a paintbrush for him and talk to him. But I was too busy, for I had a law practice to run, and I could not take the time to hold the paintbrush, or talk to my father. Five years ago, my 71-year-old father spent five hours putting together a swing set (秋千) for my daughter. Again, all he asked was that I get him a glass of iced tea, and talk to him. But again, I had laundry to do, and the house to clean. On the morning of Sunday, January 16, 1996, my father telephoned me as usual. This time he seemed to have forgotten some things we had discussed the week before. I had to get to church, and I cut the conversation short. The call came at 4:40 am. That day my father was sent to hospital in Florida. I got on a plane immediately, and I vowed (发誓) that when I arrived, I would make up for the lost time, and have a nice long talk with him and really get to know him. I arrived in Florida at 1:00 am, but my father had passed away at 9:12 pm. This time it was he who did not have time to talk, or time to wait for me. In the years since his death I have learnt much about my father, and even more about myself. As a father, he never asked me for anything but my time. Now he has all my attention, every single day. 31. We know from the reading that the father ________ A. liked to paint houses B. had no friends around him C. was not healthy in his youth D. thought of his family as his all 32. When her father painted her first house, the daughter ________ A. could only afford a glass of iced tea B. was too busy to talk to her father C. could do nothing but hold a paintbrush D. spent eight hours a day working with her father 33. On January 16, 1996, the daughter felt that her father ________ A. seemed to be a little different B. had no time to phone her as usual C. became interested in church D. had forgotten to discuss some things. 34. In the reading the underlined phrase “get to know him” most probably means. A. get him to know her B. know more about him C. get him to know himself D. make him well-known 35. Which is the best title of the reading? A. Painting Houses B. Daughter’s Family C. Father and I D. Father’s phone call C Like detectives, archaeologists use evidence to solve mysteries. Detectives look for clues to solve crimes. Archaeologists look for clues to help them understand how people lived long ago. In fact, the word “archaeology” means “the study of ancient things”. One type of evidence used to learn about the past is pottery. People have used pottery for thousands of years all over the world. Old pottery is usually found in pieces called “potsherds”. Sometimes potsherds found in the same place can be put back together to recreate the original pot. Even in pieces, old pottery can teach us about the past. When examining pottery, archaeologists consider not only its appearance but what it was made of and how it was made. With this knowledge, they can get information about people’s lives in ancient times. ① Pottery is made by first adding water to a kind of soil called clay. When wet, clay can be formed into shapes. It is then heated. This hardens (使变硬) the clay and allows it to keep its shape. To make clay easier to shape and heat, potters (制陶工) use something called “temper”. Different materials can be used as temper. An archaeologist can tell where a pot came from by the types of clay and temper that were used. Sometimes a pot found in one location might have materials from another place. ② Some of the earliest pots were made quite simply. A piece of clay was hollowed (掏空) out and shaped into a bowl. It was then heated at a low temperature. The finished pot was rough (粗糙), and often undecorated. This type of pot might be used for cooking. ③ Later, coiled pots were made. These were made by first rolling the clay into a long snake shape. The coil was then wound (绕) in circles to form a pot. They were often decorated in different ways. These pots were heated at high temperatures. The higher the temperature, the harder and longer-lasting the pot. Further improvements in pottery-making developed in different times and places. ④ A pot’s shape and decoration can provide clues about the past. Painted pictures might show events from daily life or from ancient stories. Archaeologists know certain shapes and styles that were common in different times and places. Archaeologists study the differences in types of pottery closely. Because of their work, these daily objects can tell some of the mysteries of the past. 36. When examining pottery, archaeologists consider not only its appearance but what it was made of and how it was made. The word “examining” means “________” in English. A. studying B. displaying C. searching D. discovering 37. Why are the words “potsherds” and “temper” written in quotation marks (引号) in Paragraphs 2 and 3? A. To remind readers that both words are very useful. B. To make sure readers understand the words correctly. C. To show that these words come from other languages. D. To introduce the words that may be unknown to readers. 38. When is temper added to the clay? A. Before the clay is shaped. B. After the pot is heated. C. While the pot is being decorated. D. When the clay is hollowed. 39. We can put the sentence “This can provide clues about how people traded or travelled.” in Blank ________ A. ① B. ② C. ③ D. ④ 40. What is the main idea of this passage? A. People have used pottery for thousands of years all over the world. B. Pots are decorated with pictures that show events from ancient stories. C. Ancient pottery can tell about the lives of the people who made and used it. D. Archaeologists look for clues to solve mystories in different times and places. 阅读短文，从短文后选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 In ancient times, people usually wrote from right to left in vertical columns (竖列). But now, we write from left to right in horizontal rows (横行).Why did this change? This has to do with the writing tools and habits that people had back then. ____41____ The thin slips were connected by small pieces of string. People wrote from top to bottom on one piece and then another. The slips were then connected together into one long passage. ____42____ While opening a roll, people usually held it with their right hand and opened it with their left hand. ____43____ Near the end of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) some scholars began to spread Western ideas and suggested that Chinese people follow the Western writing habit. In 1917, linguist (语言学家) Qian Xuantong wrote a letter to the New Culture Movement leader Chen Duxiu, suggesting writing Chinese characters from left to right. He said that if we used our right hands to write, it would be easier to begin from the left. It would be more comfortable to read, too. ____44____ In the early 1950s, famous overseas Chinese businessman and philanthropist (慈善家) Chen Jiageng and Chinese writer Guo Moruo raised this suggestion again. Gradually, the texts of newspapers, magazines and books were printed in horizontal rows. ____45____ A. It’s better to write from the left-hand side. B. People got used to writing from left to right in rows. C. After being connected, the slips were rolled up (卷起来). D. Before paper was created, people wrote on bamboo slips (竹简). E. However, this idea wasn’t widely accepted. F. Nowadays, more and more people are interested in writing on bamboo slips. G. Therefore, it made more sense to start writing from the right-hand side. 五.词汇运用（共15小题，每小题1分，满分15分） 选用方框内的单词或词组填空，其中有一个单词或词组是多余选项。 courage research through to my surprise force achievement 46.

Soon her smile took away my ____54____ (happy). “Do you think I can go to college?” I didn’t know why I ____55____ (ask) such a question.

I believe you are the best!” I ____57____ (move) deeply by her words. I decided ____58____ (study) hard. She often helped me with my study in her free time. In the end, I did well in my studies and went to a good college. Her words have kept me ____59____ (go) forward.

But there is a rule: As you pass through the factory, you cannot turn back. You must pick the sweet as you go forward only.” The student went to the sweet factory. As he walked through, he saw one sweet was wrapped (包装) nicely. He really liked it, but he thought that he could find a better one later. So, he walked further, and then he saw another sweet. But again, he thought the same. When he started to reach near the end of the factory, he couldn’t see any sweets as big as the one he didn’t pick earlier and started to regret his decision of letting it go. Finally, he gave up. He went back to the teacher with an empty hand and gave an explanation of what he had done. The teacher told him, “You did like the first sweet very much, but still you kept looking for a better one. And later you realized that what you let go of was the best sweet you could find there. That is called greed.” In our life, we let go many good things because of our greed of having even better ones. This is human nature: We always want something better. But we let go of many good things which can give us similar satisfaction and make us happy. Learn to make your choice wisely. 回答下面5个问题。 61.

He had no hobbies but just took care of his family. For 22 years, since I left home for college, my father called me every Sunday at 9:00 am. He was always interested in my life-how my family was doing. The calls even came when he and my mother were in Australia, England or Florida. Nine years ago when I bought my first house, my father, 67 years old, spent eight hours a day for three days, painting my house. He would not allow me to pay someone to have it done. All he asked, was a glass of iced tea, and that I hold a paintbrush for him and talk to him. But I was too busy, for I had a law practice to run, and I could not take the time to hold the paintbrush, or talk to my father. Five years ago, my 71-year-old father spent five hours putting together a swing set (秋千) for my daughter. Again, all he asked was that I get him a glass of iced tea, and talk to him. But again, I had laundry to do, and the house to clean. On the morning of Sunday, January 16, 1996, my father telephoned me as usual. This time he seemed to have forgotten some things we had discussed the week before. I had to get to church, and I cut the conversation short. The call came at 4:40 am. That day my father was sent to hospital in Florida. I got on a plane immediately, and I vowed (发誓) that when I arrived, I would make up for the lost time, and have a nice long talk with him and really get to know him. I arrived in Florida at 1:00 am, but my father had passed away at 9:12 pm. This time it was he who did not have time to talk, or time to wait for me. In the years since his death I have learnt much about my father, and even more about myself. As a father, he never asked me for anything but my time. Now he has all my attention, every single day. 31. We know from the reading that the father ________ A. liked to paint houses B. had no friends around him C. was not healthy in his youth D. thought of his family as his all 32. When her father painted her first house, the daughter ________ A. could only afford a glass of iced tea B. was too busy to talk to her father C. could do nothing but hold a paintbrush D. spent eight hours a day working with her father 33. On January 16, 1996, the daughter felt that her father ________ A. seemed to be a little different B. had no time to phone her as usual C. became interested in church D. had forgotten to discuss some things. 34. In the reading the underlined phrase “get to know him” most probably means. A. get him to know her B. know more about him C. get him to know himself D. make him well-known 35. Which is the best title of the reading? A. Painting Houses B. Daughter’s Family C. Father and I D. Father’s phone call 【答案】31. D 32. B 33. A 34. B 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了一位父亲默默为家庭付出、始终关心女儿生活，而女儿因忙碌多次错过与父亲相处的机会，直到父亲突然离世后才深刻体会到父爱的珍贵与遗憾的故事。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据“He had no hobbies but just took care of his family”可知，父亲没有爱好，一心只照顾家人，说明他将家庭视为一切。故选D。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据“But I was too busy, for I had a law practice to run, and I could not take the time to hold the paintbrush, or talk to my father”可知，父亲帮女儿刷房子时，女儿因太忙没时间和父亲说话。故选B。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据“On the morning of Sunday, January 16, 1996, my father telephoned me as usual. This time he seemed to have forgotten some things we had discussed the week before”可知，1996 年 1 月 16 日，父亲像往常一样打电话，但似乎忘了之前讨论过的事，这让女儿觉得父亲和平时有点不一样。故选A。 【34题详解】 词句猜测题。根据前文女儿一直因忙碌没时间和父亲交流，以及“I vowed that when I arrived, I would make up for the lost time, and have a nice long talk with him and really get to know him”可知，女儿想通过长时间聊天弥补失去的时光，进而更了解父亲。故选B。 【35题详解】 最佳标题题。根据全文围绕女儿与父亲之间的故事展开，从父亲日常照顾家人、打电话关心女儿，到帮女儿刷房子、装秋千，再到父亲离世后女儿的感悟，核心是“父亲与我（女儿）”的关系。故选C。 C Like detectives, archaeologists use evidence to solve mysteries. Detectives look for clues to solve crimes. Archaeologists look for clues to help them understand how people lived long ago. In fact, the word “archaeology” means “the study of ancient things”. One type of evidence used to learn about the past is pottery. People have used pottery for thousands of years all over the world. Old pottery is usually found in pieces called “potsherds”. Sometimes potsherds found in the same place can be put back together to recreate the original pot. Even in pieces, old pottery can teach us about the past. When examining pottery, archaeologists consider not only its appearance but what it was made of and how it was made. With this knowledge, they can get information about people’s lives in ancient times. ① Pottery is made by first adding water to a kind of soil called clay. When wet clay can be formed into shapes. It is then heated. This hardens (使变硬) the clay and allows it to keep its shape. To make clay easier to shape and heat, potters (制陶工) use something called “temper”. Different materials can be used as temper. An archaeologist can tell where a pot came from by the types of clay and temper that were used. Sometimes a pot found in one location might have materials from another place. ② Some of the earliest pots were made quite simply. A piece of clay was hollowed (掏空) out and shaped into a bowl. It was then heated at a low temperature. The finished pot was rough (粗糙), and often undecorated. This type of pot might be used for cooking. ③ Later, coiled pots were made. These were made by first rolling the clay into a long snake shape. The coil was then wound (绕) in circles to form a pot. They were often decorated in different ways. These pots were heated at high temperatures. The higher the temperature, the harder and longer-lasting the pot. Further improvements in pottery-making developed in different times and places. ④ A pot’s shape and decoration can provide clues about the past. Painted pictures might show events from daily life or from ancient stories. Archaeologists know certain shapes and styles that were common in different times and places. Archaeologists study the differences in types of pottery closely. Because of their work, these daily objects can tell some of the mysteries of the past. 36. When examining pottery, archaeologists consider not only its appearance but what it was made of and how it was made. The word “examining” means “________” in English. A. studying B. displaying C. searching D. discovering 37. Why are the words “potsherds” and “temper” written in quotation marks (引号) in Paragraphs 2 and 3? A. To remind readers that both words are very useful. B. To make sure readers understand the words correctly. C. To show that these words come from other languages. D. To introduce the words that may be unknown to readers. 38. When is temper added to the clay? A. Before the clay is shaped. B. After the pot is heated. C. While the pot is being decorated. D. When the clay is hollowed. 39. We can put the sentence “This can provide clues about how people traded or travelled.” in Blank ________ A. ① B. ② C. ③ D. ④ 40. What is the main idea of this passage? A. People have used pottery for thousands of years all over the world. B. Pots are decorated with pictures that show events from ancient stories. C. Ancient pottery can tell about the lives of the people who made and used it. D. Archaeologists look for clues to solve mystories in different times and places. 【答案】36. A 37. D 38. A 39. B 40. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了考古学家如何通过研究陶器来了解古代人类的生活方式，包括陶器的制作工艺、材料分析及其所反映的历史信息。 【36题详解】 词义猜测题。根据“When examining pottery, archaeologists consider not only its appearance but what it was made of and how it was made.”可知，考古学家通过研究陶器的外观、材料和制作方法来获取信息。examining在此处意为“研究”。故选A。 【37题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段和第三段的内容，potsherds和temper是专业术语，可能对读者来说较为陌生，因此用引号标注以引起注意。故选D。 【38题详解】 细节理解题。根据“To make clay easier to shape and heat, potters use something called ‘temper’.”可知，temper是在陶土成型和加热之前添加的。故选A。 【39题详解】 逻辑推理题。句子“This can provide clues about how people traded or travelled.”应放在第二段末尾的空白处②，因为前文提到陶器材料可能来自不同地区，这与贸易或迁徙的线索相关。故选B。 【40题详解】 主旨大意题。全文围绕陶器如何帮助考古学家揭示古代人类的生活展开，强调陶器作为历史证据的重要性。故选C。 阅读短文，从短文后选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 In ancient times, people usually wrote from right to left in vertical columns (竖列). But now, we write from left to right in horizontal rows (横行).Why did this change? This has to do with the writing tools and habits that people had back then. ____41____ The thin slips were connected by small pieces of string. People wrote from top to bottom on one piece and then another. The slips were then connected together into one long passage. ____42____ While opening a roll, people usually held it with their right hand and opened it with their left hand. ____43____ Near the end of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) some scholars began to spread Western ideas and suggested that Chinese people follow the Western writing habit. In 1917, linguist (语言学家) Qian Xuantong wrote a letter to the New Culture Movement leader Chen Duxiu, suggesting writing Chinese characters from left to right. He said that if we used our right hands to write, it would be easier to begin from the left. It would be more comfortable to read, too. ____44____ In the early 1950s, famous overseas Chinese businessman and philanthropist (慈善家) Chen Jiageng and Chinese writer Guo Moruo raised this suggestion again. Gradually, the texts of newspapers, magazines and books were printed in horizontal rows. ____45____ A. It’s better to write from the left-hand side. B. People got used to writing from left to right in rows. C. After being connected, the slips were rolled up (卷起来). D. Before paper was created, people wrote on bamboo slips (竹简). E. However, this idea wasn’t widely accepted. F. Nowadays, more and more people are interested in writing on bamboo slips. G. Therefore, it made more sense to start writing from the right-hand side. 【答案】41. D 42. C 43. G 44. E 45.

But there is a rule: As you pass through the factory, you cannot turn back. You must pick the sweet as you go forward only.” The student went to the sweet factory. As he walked through, he saw one sweet was wrapped (包装) nicely. He really liked it, but he thought that he could find a better one later. So, he walked further, and then he saw another sweet. But again, he thought the same. When he started to reach near the end of the factory, he couldn’t see any sweets as big as the one he didn’t pick earlier and started to regret his decision of letting it go. Finally, he gave up. He went back to the teacher with an empty hand and gave an explanation of what he had done. The teacher told him, “You did like the first sweet very much, but still you kept looking for a better one. And later you realized that what you let go of was the best sweet you could find there. That is called greed.” In our life, we let go many good things because of our greed of having even better ones. This is human nature: We always want something better. But we let go of many good things which can give us similar satisfaction and make us happy. Learn to make your choice wisely. 回答下面5个问题。 61.

He went back to the teacher with an empty hand”可知，学生空手回到老师身边，没有带任何糖果。故填None. 【64题详解】 根据“The teacher told him, ‘You did like the first sweet very much, but still you kept looking for a better one. And later you realized that what you let go of was the best sweet you could find there. That is called greed.’”可知，老师认为学生行为背后的原因是贪婪。故填Greed. 【65题详解】 开放性试题，答案合理即可。参考答案为We should not be greedy. 七、书面表达（20分） 66. 时间在不经意中从指尖划过，转眼我们已是九年级的学生。蓦然回首，成长的路上留下一串串或深或浅的脚印，记载着忧伤，伴随着我们一路走来。请你根据以下思维导图的提示，分享你的成长故事。 注意：1.词数90左右，短文开头已给出，不计入总词数。 2.表达中请勿提及真实校名及姓名 Growing up How time flies!

Now we are Grade Nine students. I feel happy and sometimes sad when growing up. Here is what I’d like to share with you. First, I’ve known that persistence leads to progress. Last year, I failed a math test. I tried to deal with the problem calmly. I analyzed my mistakes and asked my teachers for help. Gradually, my grades improved. Another important lesson was getting on with others. I used to argue with my classmates over small things. Later, I learned to understand their perspectives. Now, we work together harmoniously. In addition, I have developed new hobbies such as reading books and playing basketball, which bring me excitement and enhance my teamwork skills. Though growing up isn’t always easy, I’ve become more responsible and ready to embrace my future. 【解析】 【详解】[总体分析] ①题材：本文是一篇材料作文； ②时态：主要为“一般过去时”和“一般现在时”； ③提示：写作提示已给出，考生应注意结合具体语境使用正确的时态，适当发挥，使上下文连贯。 [写作步骤] 第一步，由于短文开头已给出，故接下来具体分享你的成长经历； 第二步，具体描写你遇到的困难和采取的措施，以及最后取得的进步或感悟； 第三步，谈谈你的收获。 [亮点词汇] ①persistence坚持 ②improve提高 ③perspective观点 ④responsible负责的 [高分句型] ①In addition, I have developed new hobbies such as reading books and playing basketball, which bring me excitement and enhance my teamwork skills.（which引导的非限制性定语从句） ②Though growing up isn’t always easy, I’ve become more responsible and ready to embrace my future.（though引导的让步状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
