She told him that she would bring him the water in 10 minutes. Thirty minutes later, the passenger rang his service bell and the air hostess hurried to him. She was so busy that she had forgotten about his water. So the passenger had to wait longer to take his medicine. She hurried over to him with a glass of water, but he refused it. Over the next few hours, each time the air hostess passed by the passenger, she would ask him with a smile if he needed anything. But the passenger never paid attention to her. When he was going to get off the plane, the passenger asked the air hostess to hand him the passengers’ booklet (手册). She was very worried. She knew that he would write something bad about her, but with a smile she handed it to him. Once he was off the plane, she opened the booklet and smiled, because the passenger wrote, “On the flight, you smiled and asked me 12 times if I needed help. How could I refuse your 12 sincere smiles?” 29. After the plane took off, the passenger asked the air hostess for ________. A. his medicine B. food C. a glass of water D. another blanket 30. Why didn’t the passenger pay attention to the air hostess? A. Because she hurt his feelings. B. Because he wasn’t happy about her service. C. Because she never brought him the thing he asked for. D. Because he was very sick. 31. What’s the main idea of this story? A. Always remember passengers’ needs. B. Don’t hurt people’s feeling. C. Be polite to people who work for you. D. A sincere smile is hard to refuse. C The weather is getting hotter. You are thirsty after playing basketball or riding home from school. A cold drink may be just the thing. But be careful of what you are drinking. Something that looks cool may not be good for our health. There are plenty of “energy drinks” on the market. Most of them have beautiful colours and cool names. The lists on them tell you they are helpful to your health. Sounds great But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks have lots of caffeine (咖啡因) in them. These drinks are especially aimed at young people students, busy people and sports players. Producers sometimes say their drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awake. But be careful not to drink too much. Caffeine makes your heart beat fast. Because of this, the International Olympic Committee has limited its use. Caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as strong as that in a cup of coffee. Possible health dangers have something to do with energy drinks. Just one box of energy drink can make you feel nervous, have difficulty sleeping and can even cause heart problems. Scientists say that teenagers should be discouraged from taking drinks with a lot of caffeine in them. 32. Most energy drinks have lots of ________ which makes your heart beat fast. A. sugar B. salt C. caffeine D. water 33. Many people like energy drinks because of the following EXCEPT that ________. A. they can make people feel nervous B. they are said to be helpful to health C. they have beautiful colours and cool names D. they keep them awake and better at sports 34. Which can take the place of the underlined word “discouraged”? A. encouraged B. stopped C. helped D. disliked 35. What’s the best title for the passage? A. Energy drinks —Useful to players B. Energy drinks —Bad for teenagers C. Energy drinks —Be careful D. Energy drinks —Good for health D During the Tang Dynasty (618-907), Emperor Taizong asked the official Feng Deyi to recommend talented (有才能的) people. However, several months passed. Feng didn’t recommend anyone. “I tried my best, but there are no unusual and well-rounded people at all,” Feng said. “People are like containers. What we need to do is to make good use of their strengths. You should feel ashamed of not noticing talented people. How can you say that there are no talented people in our country?” said the emperor. In fact, each tool has a special use. A knife is made to cut things while chopsticks are made to pick up food. We can’t use a knife as a chopstick. Like a tool, each person has his own strength. Nobody is perfect. We can’t expect a person to be good at everything. With this idea in mind, Emperor Taizong discovered many talented people of different backgrounds. He offered them important jobs, which helped them make the most of their talents. The talented people helped the society develop and created a “golden age”. A good example is Ma Zhou, who grew up in a poor family. Ma gave a lot of useful advice, so Emperor Taizong offered him a job and he rose many times. Ma helped the emperor deal with difficult problems and became a well-known person in history. 36. Why couldn’t Feng Deyi find any talented people in Taizong’s opinion? A. He didn’t try his best. B. There were no talented people. C. His standards were wrong. D. He was afraid of losing his job. 37. What does the underlined phrase “make the most of” mean? A. Come up with something. B. Have something in common. C. Put something to good use. D. Bring good luck to something. 38. Ma Zhou is one of those people who ________. A. show talent in the right field B. are rich and useful at first C. know when to take a chance D. have no talent at all 39. What can we know about the talented people Taizong discovered? A. They were promoted (升职) many times. B. They helped the society develop a lot. C. They were offered unimportant positions. D. They were people of the same background. 40. What can we learn from the story? A. Chances only come to those who are well prepared. B. Discover someone’s strength and make good use of it. C. Where there is a will, there is a way. D. Gold will shine everywhere. B) 阅读短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。 Are you the kind of person who likes to move with music especially the music with a rhythm you like? ____41____. Even little children start jumping up and down when they hear music. Scientists say that animals dance, too. ____42____. The “dances” of animals send messages to other animals. But when people dance, they express feelings about life and love, or about these very human experiences. Dances are really good for you in many ways. For one thing, dancing is good for you physically. It makes your heart work and makes you breathe fast. ____43____. If you go dancing often, you can keep physically fit. You may feel very tired after dancing, but you’ll probably also feel relaxed and happy. This is another important point about dancing. It gives you a chance to express your feelings and feel better about yourself. ____44____, dancing helps those feelings go away. ____45____. Some dances are for couples and some are for groups. But all kinds of dances give you a chance to meet new people or to do something enjoyable with friends. A. But their dancing is different B. And finally, it’s a social activity C. It’s a natural thing to do D. If you are angry or upset about something E. It also makes you use your arms and legs F.

A study in 2018 compared more than 30 countries and found that 3.8 people per 100,000 died in traffic accidents in the UK. This number was lower than any other country. So, what did British drivers do to achieve this? What are they doing differently? Here are five top tips for drivers who are planning a trip to the UK. People in Britain drive on the left side of the road. In fact, a long time ago people drove on the left in most countries, but now only a few countries have this. Don't forget that this also means you must drive the other way around roundabouts ( 环岛) . British people feel that waiting should be fair for everybody. If you are in a queue of traffic, then don't try to push past the cars in front of yours. This is called "jumping the queue". You must wait for your turn; otherwise people may get angry with you. You must stop at the traffic lights when they are red. In many countries. it is OK to go past the red lights if you are turning a corner or if there isn't any other traffic around. In the UK you could have a lot of trouble if you do this. If another driver flashes (闪烁) his cars lights at you, he is probably trying to tell you that he will wait for you to go first. British people don't like to use their car horn ( 喇叭) much and they think people who do so are rude. If you get in an accident, don't try to pay the police. The police in the UK never take money, and if you try to offer them some, you could end your holiday visiting British prison. 回答下面5个问题，每题答案不超过六个词。 61. How many tips are mentioned in the passage? __________________________________________________________ 62. Which side do British people drive on? __________________________________________________________ 63. If you jump the queue, how will other drivers feel? __________________________________________________________ 64. What does the driver probably mean if he flashes his car's lights at you? __________________________________________________________ 65. If you give the police money, what will happen to you? __________________________________________________________ 六、书面表达（满分20分） 66. 2025新款校服的设计工作即将拉开帷幕，设计小组成员正在招募中。你的好朋友Mike对设计工作非常感兴趣，请帮助他给吴老师写一封自荐信。要点如下： 1.介绍个人的性格特点（至少2点）并举例说明； 2.介绍个人对校服配色的选择（至少2种颜色）及理由。 要求：1.词数不少于90词； 2.文中不得出现真实的姓名等相关信息； 3.根据所给信息适当发挥，条理清楚，语意连贯，句式多样，字迹工整。 ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 2024—2025学年第一学期第一次学情调研 九年级英语试题 （全卷共140分，时间90分钟） 一、选择填空（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分） 【1题答案】 【答案】B 【2题答案】 【答案】D 【3题答案】 【答案】C 【4题答案】 【答案】B 【5题答案】 【答案】B 【6题答案】 【答案】A 【7题答案】 【答案】C 【8题答案】 【答案】C 【9题答案】 【答案】D 【10题答案】 【答案】C 二、完形填空（共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分） 【11~25题答案】 【答案】11.
