They warn that anger can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches, emotional problems and even cancer. Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time. Some people express anger openly in a peaceful and reasonable way. Some people are so angry that they shout or cry to show their anger. But other people keep their anger inside. They can not or will not express it. This is called repressing (压抑性的) anger. In the past many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a person’s health than expressing it. They said that when a person is angry, the brain produces the same hormones (荷尔蒙). Their hearts beat faster and blood pressure goes up. In general the person feels excited and ready to act. Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe if you express anger with strong emotion, you may develop heart disease, and they believe if you keep the anger inside, you may face a greater danger of high blood pressure. Doctors say we have to learn how to deal with anger. They say the first step is to agree that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about. If it is, they say, “Do not express your anger while angry. Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself peacefully and reasonably.” Doctors say that the best way to deal with anger is to find humour in the situation that has made you angry. They said that laughter is much healthier than anger. 1．Anger can’t lead to some disease, can it? . 2．How many ways do people usually react (反应) if they are angry? . 3．Why do some people shout and cry? . 4．What may happen to you if you express anger with strong emotion? . 5．What is the best way to deal with anger? . 6．How do you deal with anger? (List one way of dealing with anger and give your reasons) . (24-25九上·上海市北初级中学·期中) Sally woke with a sudden movement. She heard strange sounds; she could smell smoke. The room was full of smoke. She coughed. What was happening? Her bedroom door opened with a bang and her mother ran in, her face white. “Get up Sally, we have to go! Get dressed now!” Her mother disappeared back into the house. Sally jumped from her bed and opened the window. Screams and cries came from the streets below. Sally watched people throw their things into carts, horses threading the ground, keen to leave. “Hey, what’s happening?” Sally yelled. “Fire!” her neighbour shouted back. “Coming from Pudding Lane! Get out now Sally! No one is safe!” Sally pulled her window shut and got changed as quickly as she could. Downstairs, she found her father, mother and sister jamming their things into a handcart. They watched people trying to put out the big fire with leather buckets full of water. It didn’t seem to make any difference, as the fire jumped from one building to the next. “The houses are so close tighter and made of wood!” Sally noticed, as she tripped over candlesticks, burnt pans and odd bits of furniture that people had dropped in the streets. The grocer’s boy, Tom Winter, saw Sally and said, “Some people are going to St. Paul’s Cathedral to stay safe. Made of stone. Won’t burn like wood.” Sally nodded, but followed her parents down the dark street. They walked and walked. Finally, they arrived at Moorfields. It was a wide-open space with no buildings to burn.

(24-25九上·上海奉贤区·期中) Karlsson, a Swedish teacher at Beijing Union University (BUU), has lived in China for over 15 years. The seeds (种子) of his China journey were sown when he joined in a program for East Asian studies at Lund University in Sweden in 1997. Back then, cellphones and the Internet hadn’t yet come into wide use. Learning Chinese meant using textbooks, heavy dictionaries and audio tapes. He would read the dictionary carefully for hours to understand a one-page Chinese article. “In those days, it was a real challenge,” he said. In 2006, with a high score in the official Chinese language test, he won a scholarship for a five-week summer program at Beijing Language and Culture University. After finishing the study program, Karlsson was offered a Beijing-based job as a market researcher. In 2008, the year Beijing succeeded in hosting the Summer Olympic Games, he got married. In the next year, he started to teach business at BUU. Life in Beijing has been a wonderful adventure (异乎寻常的经历), especially as a witness to the great achievements China has made. It has offered him many chances for personal growth. Today, thanks to high-speed broadband and 5G, he can connect with students at BUU’s partner universities in Russia, Montenegro or Mexico while riding on the Beijing subway. “When you open your eyes to these great projects, it is impossible not to want to be part of them or at least support them somehow,” he said. Although he was busy on teaching days, Karlsson applied for a full-time scholarship at the University of International Business and Economics in Beijing. In 2022, at 44 years old, he got his Ph.D．in economics. “I am quite interested in blockchain technology, and I know that China is quickly becoming the leader in blockchain applications outside the cryptocurrency space.

At that time, he had no thought that he would spend the rest of his life in Xiamen and enjoyed his life there so much. Now as a professor of management at Xiamen University, William has been teaching business studies since 1989. In 1988, William arrived in Xiamen with his family—his wife and two sons. Xiamen in the 1980s was not a nice place to live in. People burned coal and the air was polluted. Besides, the electricity was awful. William said what made him stay in Xiamen was the people there. “In the 1980s, Chinese people used food coupons (粮票) to get meat, vegetables and oil.” But foreigners had no such tickets, and we could not use cash, either,” William said. “Many Chinese teachers sold their tickets to me, not to make money, but to offer a little kind help to a foreigner.” “During such festivals as the Spring Festival and the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Chinese teachers would invite my family to their homes. Even though they were not rich, they shared everything with us. Just once a year later, I decided to live here permanently (永久地).” Looking back, William said the improvements in Xiamen were great. “I knew the difficult time would pass, but I didn’t expect that the city would improve so fast. The city now has good transportation and wonderful nightlife similar to Las Vegas.” Over the past years, William has taken his family travelling across China. They are surprised at the variety of China’s natural beauty. But in William’s eyes, nowhere is more beautiful than his hometown in China—Xiamen. Once, William made a speech in Xiamen Tourism Festival. When he was asked to say something to this city, “________” William said proudly. 1．William Brown moved to Xiamen in 1988, didn’t he? 2．What is William Brown’s job in Xiamen? 3．How could people get meat, vegetables and oil in 1980s China? 4．What made William decide to stay in Xiamen permanently? 5．How is the city Xiamen now in William Brown’s eyes? 6．What can probably be filled in the blank?

Some only jump once, while others go on to experience lifelong adventures, flying and turning over through the air. Skydiving is a method of leaving an airplane and returning to the earth with the help of gravity (重力), then slowing down by using a parachute (降落伞). It may include more or less free-fall, a time during which the parachute has not been used and the body gradually accelerates (加速) to the highest speed. There are three choices for the beginners. However, before you try skydiving, a ground course on safety is required. The first method is accelerated free-fall. You jump out of the plane while being held by two coaches, one on either side. They hold onto you until you open your parachute. The second method is called static line. After jumping out, you will experience free-fall for a second or two. Then the weight of your body will pull the line tight, opening the parachute. Tandem (串联) is the most popular because it is the easiest. You and the coach are tied together, the coach behind, with you in front. You jump out of the plane together, and the coach takes care of opening the parachute. For each of these three methods, the coaches give instructions in the air with hand signals or a radio. If you want to try something challenging and would love to feel the freedom of flying, skydiving might be an adventure for you. Who knows? With risk and excitement mixed together, skydiving might just change your life. 1．Do thousands of people try skydiving each year, don’t they? 2．For the beginners, how many methods can they choose? 3．Why do most of the beginners choose tandem? 4．How do the coaches give instructions in the air? 5．What does the writer want to tell us in the passage? 6．What do you think of skydiving? Why do you think so? (23-24九上·上海浦东模范中学·期中)Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答问题) Sun Ruifeng, a mother in Beijing, changed some of her plans for her 8-year-old son’s summer vacation. She looked for an English training course, but in the end, she changed it to a swimming training class. “Due to the stricter regulations (规定) on subject-training classes, many parents like me choose sports or other projects for developing interests instead,” Sun said. Sun’s choice is part of the result of the government’s growing efforts to lighten the academic pressure (学业压力) on young students. On July 24 last year, Chinese government introduced a guideline (意见) to ease the burden (负担) of excessive homework and off-campus training for primary and junior high school students. It lists requirements in areas such as reducing the amount and the difficulty of homework and improving the quality of education and after-class services provided by schools. For example, homework for children below the third grade is not allowed, while homework for junior high school students should take no longer than 90 minutes to finish. According to the guideline, training institutions (机构) cannot teach students content that is too advanced for the school curriculum. No training courses can be taught on weekends, national holidays or during winter and summer vacations. According to Global Times, more than 75 percent of Chinese urban children, from Grade 1 to Grade 12, attend training programs. However, some training institutions take part in anxiety marketing, selling unnecessary programs that increase the burden on students. Many parents showed their support for the new moves. “Subject learning is enough at school and we hope to improve the children’s overall quality of life during holidays.” a parent surnamed (姓) Zhou in Guangzhou told Xinhua. However, there are also some concerns. A parent surnamed Chen in Shanxi said that although she agreed on new moves, she worried that/if . 1．Sun Ruifeng didn’t choose the swimming training class for her son at last, did she? 2．What does the guideline require primary and junior high schools to do on homework? 3．How long does it take the children in the junior high school to finish their homework? 4．Who increases the burden on students by selling unnecessary programs? 5．Why did many parents show their support for the new move? 6．What might be filled in the blank in the last paragraph? (24-25九上·上海七宝实验中学·期中)根据短文内容回答下列问题 A live-streaming app (直播应用) that monitors (监控) students in classrooms in some middle schools has raised a lot of online discussion. It was reported that any user of the app Shuidi could see inside classrooms. Some parents have praised the app for giving them the chance to monitor their children, while others worry about privacy (隐私) problems. Do you think the app is a good idea? I strongly support this app. Nowadays, children play an important role in the whole family, and parents always want to care for their children, wherever they are. This new platform (平台) helps parents see what their children are doing in classes. It’s also a good way to make students behave themselves in school. —— Linda I’m in favor of this app if parents get their children’s permission (准许) first. The app could help parents focus on children’s bad habits. It could also be used as a tool to prevent bullying (霸凌). However, parents should get their permission first to protect their privacy. —— Jeff I think this app is a bad idea. Schools should be a pleasant and relaxing place for students to study and play. But we will feel uncomfortable if cameras are watching us all the time. We should pay attention to our privacy. Our lives shouldn’t be watched by the public. —— Betty Any form of privacy invasion (侵犯) shouldn’t be allowed. Although some parents want to know more about their children, they should do it in a better way. Being under the eye of strangers is too dangerous. —— David 1．Does the living-streaming app monitor students in classrooms in some middle schools? 2．In Linda’s opinion, what does this new platform help both parents and students? 3．According to Jeff, what are the advantages of this app if parents get their permission first to protect their privacy? 4．Why does Betty think this app is a bad idea? 5．What form does David think is too dangerous? 6．Are you in favor of (支持) having monitoring equipment in your school? Why? (24-25九上·上海杨浦区·期中) The moon was low in the sky as Mia finished loading her pickup truck. She led her two-year-old dog, Buddy, to his cage in the back of the truck. It was two in the morning. Three days earlier, 12-year-old Jake had gone missing from his Boy Scout camp in the Blue Mountains. Many people searched for him, but they found very few clues. So, they phoned the Search and Rescue Dog Association. Mia and Buddy were part of it. They had trained for a year to help find lost people. Mia remembered what her husband, Dave, had said before she left that morning. “Don’t get your hopes up,” he had warned. But Mia was determined. “Jake has been out there for three days. Buddy can help!” she replied. When Mia arrived at the meeting point, the rescuers explained that the ground was very rough. They had to move on their hands and knees at times, and none of their dogs had found a smell. Mia let out a breath; it would be a tough job. At 6 a.m, Mia and the other searchers learned more about Jake. She studied his photo, wanting to remember his face. “Jake is alive,” she told Buddy. “We’re going to find him.” Mia took out a piece of Jake’s clothing for Buddy to smell. With his nose up, Buddy started down the path. Suddenly, Mia saw Buddy’s head lift. He ran ahead, and Mia quickly followed. Then she saw Jake in a red jacket, looking weak. “Jake, is that you?” Mia yelled. He nodded slowly. Mia climbed up to him and sat him next to Buddy. “Do you like dogs?” she asked. He nodded again. While Mia called the base camp, Jake ate some peanut butter crackers. Buddy eagerly ate the leftovers. Back at the base camp, Mia called Dave. “You won’t believe what Buddy did! He found Jake!” “Really?” Dave said, surprised. Mia smiled, happy that Buddy had proven him wrong. 1．Mia and Buddy were leaving for the Blue Mountains at about 2 a.m, weren’t they? 2．Why were Mia and Buddy included in the search? 3．What difficulties did the rescuers face when searching for Jake? 4．What did Mia do to help Buddy locate Jake? 5．How was Jake’s condition when Mia and Buddy found him during the search? 6．Give two reasons why Dave thought it almost impossible to find the missing boy. (24-25九上·上海黄浦区·期中) Allen's First Marathon (马拉松) One of Allen's ankles was injured one month before his first time to compete in a marathon. This meant he could not run or train for two weeks. Yet, Allen made up his mind to go ahead. Allen remembers back to his first year in the school. He was only seven at that time. In his first P. E. class, his teacher required them to run laps and then hit a ball. He didn't do either well. He was later told that he was "not athletic"—he had no talent in sports. The idea that he was not athletic went with him for years. When he started running in his thirties, he realized running marathon was not about competition or whether he was physically strong and active. He thought that . The night before his first marathon, he dreamed that he couldn't even find the finish line. He woke up sweating (冒汗) and nervous, but ready to prove something to himself. Shortly after crossing the star line, his shoe laces (鞋带) became untied. So Allen stopped to tie them. Not the start he wanted! At mile 3, Allen passed a sign: "GO FOR IT, RUNNERS!" By mile 17, he became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt badly. When he felt the pain, he tried to slow down and walked a bit and then ran again. As Allen approached mile 25—near the finish line, he saw his wife waving a sign to encourage him. She is Allen's biggest fan. She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 5 a.m. or questioned his money on running. Allen was one of the final runners to finish. But he finished! And he also got a medal. In fact, he got the same medal as the one that the man who got in first place. Allen made up his mind to be himself and moved forward. He can now call himself a real winner. 1．Allen was injured a month before his first marathon, wasn't he? 2．What was Allen's decision after he was injured? 3．When did Allen know he was not good at sports? 4．Who waved a sign to support Allen near the finish line? 5．How was Allen's first marathon? 6．What can be filled in the blank in Paragraph 3?

And it might take you that long to lace up your sneakers. But on August 4, swimmer Pan Zhanle swam 100 meters in 45.92 seconds. With their amazing speed, he and his teammates redefined (重新定义) the game. They became the first non-American team to win the Olympic men’s 4×100m medley relay in more than 40 years. That was just one of China’s many breakthrough moments from this summer’s Olympics. Three days earlier, Pan had shocked the world in the men’s 100m freestyle. Like a flying fish, he touched the wall in 46.40 seconds. It was a new world record. Outside the pool, “Queen Wen,” or Zheng Qinwen, won China’s first Olympic tennis gold. Deng Yawen bagged China’s first gold medal in BMX freestyle. One thing that struck me was how young these champions are. Most of them were born this century. Diver Quan Hongchan already has three Olympic gold medals, yet she is only 17 years old. I spend my days writing for kids, but now, I’m finding myself writing about many of them because, even at their young age, they’re already making waves on the world stage. The gold medalists certainly got the most attention. Some athletes, however, made history even without winning medals. One of them is skater Cui Chenxi. In the women’s skateboarding street final, the 13-year-old finished fourth. It was China’s best result so far in this Olympic event. Naturally, while some cried tears of joy, others shed tears of regret. Swimmer Zhang Yufei returned home with one silver and five bronze medals but no gold. The 26-year-old isn’t sure about her chances for the 2028 Games. All athletes want gold medals, but “it’s a competitive world.” Zhang said in an interview. “You can’t always get what you want even if you’ve done your best.” It will be another four years until the next Olympics, but our athletes are already dreaming big. Do you also have a dream? How about chasing it alongside your favorite sports heroes? 1．Which country’s team did Pan Zhanle and his teammates defeat in the Olympic men’s 4×100m medley relay after more than 40 years? 2．Pan Zhanle set a new world record with a time of 46.40 seconds, didn’t he? 3．What Olympic achievement did Zheng Oinwen make? 4．How did 13-year-old skater Cui Chenxi perform in the women’s skateboarding street final? 5．Why did Swimmer Zhang Yufei return home in tears of regret? 6．Do you think winning gold medals is a good way to measure an athlete’s success? Why or why not? (24-25九上·上海崇明区·期中) Frida Kahlo (弗里达·卡罗) was a Mexican artist. She was born in Coyoacán, near Mexico City, in 1907. Frida grew up in a bright blue house called La Casa Azul with her parents and sisters. When she was six years old, she became ill with polio (小儿麻痹症). The illness left her right leg shorter than her left. Frida spent a lot of her life in and out of hospitals. She had many health problems, and she suffered a lot of pain. When she was eighteen, she was in a bus accident. She broke a lot of bones and spent many months recovering (康复). It was at this time that Erida started to paint.

Both artists continued their work and became successful at home and abroad. After they got married, Frida started to wear traditional Mexican clothes and became interested in Mexican folk art. This influenced her paintings, which are very bright and colorful, with a style that was very personal to Frida. However, they continued to show the pain and sadness which she experienced during her life. Frida’s health condition became worse in 1950. That year she was diagnosed with gangrene (坏疽) in her right foot. She had to lie in bed for the next nine months and had several operations. But with great persistence (毅力), Frida continued to work and paint. Sadly, Frida died on July 13, 1954, after suffering more and more health problems. Her husband died three years later. Today, Frida and Diego’s home, La Casa Azul, is a very popular museum. It displays paintings by Frida and Diego, as well as many objects from their lives.

Besides helping animals in pain, the SPCA also runs a very active education program in schools. Meet Ms Ann Lek, our Education Officer. Her job is to help more people understand animals so that they will be treated (对待) better. Reporter: What is your job duty in the SPCA, Ann? Ms Ann Lek: I give talks at schools and in many other places to help people learn more about animals. I pay visits at our shelter once a week to teach people what they should consider before getting a pet. Besides weekly talks and visits, I also help educate the public about responsible pet ownership. Reporter: When did you decide to become an Education Officer? Ms Ann Lek: I always love animals and want to make this world a better place for them. I started as a volunteer with the organization, when I was still attending university. It is so enjoyable to work with those who feel the same as I do. After volunteering for four years, I wanted to do more. I decided to join them full-time when they needed an Education Officer. Reporter: What is the most unforgettable experience you have met while working for the SPCA? Ms Ann Lek: Looking after pets and being able to bring them to work! I really appreciate (感激) the fact that I can bring my pets with me into the office when I want to. They’re my joy and give me the energy at work. Being able to bring my dogs or cats to work and having my workmates worry about them and shower them totally makes my day. Reporter: Which misunderstanding of pets would you like to change most? Ms Ann Lek: I really hate it when people are unhappy when I talk about pets, or when taxi drivers refuse to take me because I’m travelling with my dog. Whenever I speak to them and ask why, they always give the same terrible reason: “They’re dirty.” They work and travel closely with human beings every day and share all kinds of public things, but why should we get worried about contracting (感染) a kind of illness from the friendly neighbourhood pets? So I think education is the key! 1．Is Ms Ann Lek an Education Officer in the SPCA? 2．How does Ann help people learn more about animals? 3．How often does Ann pay visits at the shelter? 4．What does the underlined “more” mean? 5．According to Ann, why do those taxi drivers refuse to take her in trips? 6．Do you agree on Ann’s words “education is the key” in the last sentence? Why or why not? Give TWO reasons. (23-24九上·上海静安区协和双语培明中学·期中)Answer the questions Have you ever recycled? To recycle is to take rubbish and make it into something new. Recycling is good for our planet because it makes junk into something that we can use again. Recycling also helps to clean up the litter that makes our streets look dirty. All kinds of things can be recycled. The most common materials like glass, plastic, paper, metals, cloth are all recyclable. Sometimes these products are broken down to make the same kinds of products (产品). An example of this type of recycling is using paper to make more paper. Rubbish can also be broken down to make completely new items as well! Some items, like glass, can be recycled forever! We can use glass items, then break them down and use them again and again. Aluminum (铝) cans are one of the most successful recycled metals. They can be recycled again and again and nearly 60% of all aluminum cans have been recycled. The average family of four can produce nearly 2,000 pounds of rubbish each year. As time goes on, we have fewer places to put all of this rubbish in. Recycling is one way to limit (限制) the amount of rubbish we need to put into the land. The next time you toss a can or bottle into the rubbish can, look to see if there is a recycling triangle on the label. It is the international sign for recycling.

Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time. Some people express anger openly in a peaceful and reasonable way. Some people are so angry that they shout or cry to show their anger. But other people keep their anger inside. They can not or will not express it. This is called repressing (压抑性的) anger. In the past many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a person’s health than expressing it. They said that when a person is angry, the brain produces the same hormones (荷尔蒙). Their hearts beat faster and blood pressure goes up. In general the person feels excited and ready to act. Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe if you express anger with strong emotion, you may develop heart disease, and they believe if you keep the anger inside, you may face a greater danger of high blood pressure. Doctors say we have to learn how to deal with anger. They say the first step is to agree that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about. If it is, they say, “Do not express your anger while angry. Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself peacefully and reasonably.” Doctors say that the best way to deal with anger is to find humour in the situation that has made you angry. They said that laughter is much healthier than anger. 1．Anger can’t lead to some disease, can it? . 2．How many ways do people usually react (反应) if they are angry? . 3．Why do some people shout and cry? . 4．What may happen to you if you express anger with strong emotion? . 5．What is the best way to deal with anger? . 6．How do you deal with anger? (List one way of dealing with anger and give your reasons) . 【答案】1．Yes, it can. 2．Three ways. 3．To show their anger. 4．It may develop heart disease. 5．To find humour in the situation that has made you angry. 6．By watching a funny movie.

Some only jump once, while others go on to experience lifelong adventures, flying and turning over through the air. Skydiving is a method of leaving an airplane and returning to the earth with the help of gravity (重力), then slowing down by using a parachute (降落伞). It may include more or less free-fall, a time during which the parachute has not been used and the body gradually accelerates (加速) to the highest speed. There are three choices for the beginners. However, before you try skydiving, a ground course on safety is required. The first method is accelerated free-fall. You jump out of the plane while being held by two coaches, one on either side. They hold onto you until you open your parachute. The second method is called static line. After jumping out, you will experience free-fall for a second or two. Then the weight of your body will pull the line tight, opening the parachute. Tandem (串联) is the most popular because it is the easiest. You and the coach are tied together, the coach behind, with you in front. You jump out of the plane together, and the coach takes care of opening the parachute. For each of these three methods, the coaches give instructions in the air with hand signals or a radio. If you want to try something challenging and would love to feel the freedom of flying, skydiving might be an adventure for you. Who knows? With risk and excitement mixed together, skydiving might just change your life. 1．Do thousands of people try skydiving each year, don’t they? 2．For the beginners, how many methods can they choose? 3．Why do most of the beginners choose tandem? 4．How do the coaches give instructions in the air? 5．What does the writer want to tell us in the passage? 6．What do you think of skydiving?

She looked for an English training course, but in the end, she changed it to a swimming training class. “Due to the stricter regulations (规定) on subject-training classes, many parents like me choose sports or other projects for developing interests instead,” Sun said. Sun’s choice is part of the result of the government’s growing efforts to lighten the academic pressure (学业压力) on young students. On July 24 last year, Chinese government introduced a guideline (意见) to ease the burden (负担) of excessive homework and off-campus training for primary and junior high school students. It lists requirements in areas such as reducing the amount and the difficulty of homework and improving the quality of education and after-class services provided by schools. For example, homework for children below the third grade is not allowed, while homework for junior high school students should take no longer than 90 minutes to finish. According to the guideline, training institutions (机构) cannot teach students content that is too advanced for the school curriculum. No training courses can be taught on weekends, national holidays or during winter and summer vacations. According to Global Times, more than 75 percent of Chinese urban children, from Grade 1 to Grade 12, attend training programs. However, some training institutions take part in anxiety marketing, selling unnecessary programs that increase the burden on students.

So, they phoned the Search and Rescue Dog Association. Mia and Buddy were part of it. They had trained for a year to help find lost people. Mia remembered what her husband, Dave, had said before she left that morning. “Don’t get your hopes up,” he had warned. But Mia was determined. “Jake has been out there for three days. Buddy can help!” she replied. When Mia arrived at the meeting point, the rescuers explained that the ground was very rough.

Yet, Allen made up his mind to go ahead. Allen remembers back to his first year in the school. He was only seven at that time. In his first P. E. class, his teacher required them to run laps and then hit a ball. He didn't do either well. He was later told that he was "not athletic"—he had no talent in sports. The idea that he was not athletic went with him for years. When he started running in his thirties, he realized running marathon was not about competition or whether he was physically strong and active. He thought that . The night before his first marathon, he dreamed that he couldn't even find the finish line. He woke up sweating (冒汗) and nervous, but ready to prove something to himself. Shortly after crossing the star line, his shoe laces (鞋带) became untied. So Allen stopped to tie them. Not the start he wanted! At mile 3, Allen passed a sign: "GO FOR IT, RUNNERS!" By mile 17, he became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt badly. When he felt the pain, he tried to slow down and walked a bit and then ran again. As Allen approached mile 25—near the finish line, he saw his wife waving a sign to encourage him. She is Allen's biggest fan. She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 5 a.m. or questioned his money on running. Allen was one of the final runners to finish. But he finished! And he also got a medal. In fact, he got the same medal as the one that the man who got in first place. Allen made up his mind to be himself and moved forward.

A computer might take 46 seconds to start up. And it might take you that long to lace up your sneakers. But on August 4, swimmer Pan Zhanle swam 100 meters in 45.92 seconds. With their amazing speed, he and his teammates redefined (重新定义) the game. They became the first non-American team to win the Olympic men’s 4×100m medley relay in more than 40 years. That was just one of China’s many breakthrough moments from this summer’s Olympics. Three days earlier, Pan had shocked the world in the men’s 100m freestyle. Like a flying fish, he touched the wall in 46.40 seconds. It was a new world record. Outside the pool, “Queen Wen,” or Zheng Qinwen, won China’s first Olympic tennis gold. Deng Yawen bagged China’s first gold medal in BMX freestyle. One thing that struck me was how young these champions are. Most of them were born this century. Diver Quan Hongchan already has three Olympic gold medals, yet she is only 17 years old. I spend my days writing for kids, but now, I’m finding myself writing about many of them because, even at their young age, they’re already making waves on the world stage. The gold medalists certainly got the most attention. Some athletes, however, made history even without winning medals. One of them is skater Cui Chenxi. In the women’s skateboarding street final, the 13-year-old finished fourth. It was China’s best result so far in this Olympic event. Naturally, while some cried tears of joy, others shed tears of regret. Swimmer Zhang Yufei returned home with one silver and five bronze medals but no gold. The 26-year-old isn’t sure about her chances for the 2028 Games. All athletes want gold medals, but “it’s a competitive world.” Zhang said in an interview. “You can’t always get what you want even if you’ve done your best.” It will be another four years until the next Olympics, but our athletes are already dreaming big. Do you also have a dream? How about chasing it alongside your favorite sports heroes? 1．Which country’s team did Pan Zhanle and his teammates defeat in the Olympic men’s 4×100m medley relay after more than 40 years? 2．Pan Zhanle set a new world record with a time of 46.40 seconds, didn’t he? 3．What Olympic achievement did Zheng Oinwen make? 4．How did 13-year-old skater Cui Chenxi perform in the women’s skateboarding street final? 5．Why did Swimmer Zhang Yufei return home in tears of regret? 6．Do you think winning gold medals is a good way to measure an athlete’s success? Why or why not? 【答案】1．The American team. 2．Yes, he did. 3．Zheng Qinwen won China’s first Olympic tennis gold. 4．Cui Chenxi finished fourth in the women’s skateboarding street final. 5．Because she won one silver and five bronze medals but no gold. 6．No. Winning gold medals is not the only way to measure an athlete’s success because success can also be defined by personal improvement, breaking records, or inspiring others. 【来源】上海市进才实验中学2024-2025学年九年级上学期期中英语试题 【导语】本文介绍了几名中国体育运动员的成就。 1．根据“They became the first non-American team to win the Olympic men’s 4x100m medley relay in more than 40 years.”可知，潘展乐和他的队友们击败了美国队。故填The American team. 2．根据“Like a flying fish, he touched the wall in 46.40 seconds.

Frida grew up in a bright blue house called La Casa Azul with her parents and sisters. When she was six years old, she became ill with polio (小儿麻痹症). The illness left her right leg shorter than her left. Frida spent a lot of her life in and out of hospitals. She had many health problems, and she suffered a lot of pain. When she was eighteen, she was in a bus accident. She broke a lot of bones and spent many months recovering (康复). It was at this time that Erida started to paint. Many of her paintings from this time are self-portrairs (自画像) that show her pain and suffering. In 1929, Frida married Diego Rivera, a Mexican artist who was famous for huge paintings on walls. Both artists continued their work and became successful at home and abroad. After they got married, Frida started to wear traditional Mexican clothes and became interested in Mexican folk art. This influenced her paintings, which are very bright and colorful, with a style that was very personal to Frida. However, they continued to show the pain and sadness which she experienced during her life. Frida’s health condition became worse in 1950. That year she was diagnosed with gangrene (坏疽) in her right foot. She had to lie in bed for the next nine months and had several operations. But with great persistence (毅力), Frida continued to work and paint. Sadly, Frida died on July 13, 1954, after suffering more and more health problems. Her husband died three years later.

(23-24九上·上海静安区协和双语培明中学·期中)Answer the questions Have you ever recycled? To recycle is to take rubbish and make it into something new. Recycling is good for our planet because it makes junk into something that we can use again. Recycling also helps to clean up the litter that makes our streets look dirty. All kinds of things can be recycled. The most common materials like glass, plastic, paper, metals, cloth are all recyclable. Sometimes these products are broken down to make the same kinds of products (产品). An example of this type of recycling is using paper to make more paper. Rubbish can also be broken down to make completely new items as well! Some items, like glass, can be recycled forever! We can use glass items, then break them down and use them again and again. Aluminum (铝) cans are one of the most successful recycled metals. They can be recycled again and again and nearly 60% of all aluminum cans have been recycled. The average family of four can produce nearly 2,000 pounds of rubbish each year. As time goes on, we have fewer places to put all of this rubbish in.
