The speaker was delivering a speech about happiness. However, after a few hours, people gradually lost their attention. The speaker came up with an idea. He stopped his speech and asked all of the people to join in a group activity. He gave a single balloon to each person in the room. Each person was asked to write his or her name on the balloon with a black marker pen. Then, all of the balloons were collected and moved to another room. The 50 people were then let into the room and told to find the balloon that had their name written on it. Everyone rushed around, wildly searching for their balloon. People were bumping into and tripping (绊倒) over each other. But even after five minutes of searching, no one could find their own balloon. After seeing this, the speaker asked each person to collect a balloon and try to find the person whose name was written on it. Everyone started talking to each other and asking each other for their name. Within minutes, everyone had his or her own balloon. “Can you see what happened?” the speaker said. “The balloons are like the happiness we seek in our own lives. Everyone is busy looking for their own happiness, not caring what happens to others. But sometimes the best way to find happiness is to help others. Help them find happiness and you can find your own.” 1．Where did these 50 people write their names? 2．What do the balloons stand for in the story? 3．Do you agree with the speaker’s words? Why or why not? 【答案】1．They wrote their names on the balloons. 2．The balloons stand for the happiness we seek in our own lives. 3．Yes, I do.

Sometimes, people may be too busy with their own problems to have the time or energy to help others. And finding one’s own happiness may require self-exploration and personal growth rather than just helping others.）（言之合理即可） 【解析】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了一个演讲者通过一个小游戏让听众意识到，帮助别人就能让自己快乐的道理。 1．根据“Each person was asked to write his or her name on the balloon with a black marker pen.”可知，50个人用黑色记号笔把名字写在气球上。故填They wrote their names on the balloons. 2．根据“The balloons are like the happiness we seek in our own lives.”可知，气球代表着我们在生活中追寻的幸福。故填The balloons stand for the happiness we seek in our own lives. 3．本题为开放性问题，同意或不同意均可。同意的理由可围绕帮助他人能带来成就感和快乐，进而更容易找到自己的幸福；不同意的理由可以是人们自身事务繁忙，无暇帮助他人，且寻找幸福更多依靠自我探索和成长。可填Yes, I do.

Passage 2 （24-25九年级上·江苏扬州·期末） An about 2-metre-wide alley, or “Liu Chi Xiang” in Chinese, now attracts a large number of visitors in Tongcheng, Anhui. There is an ancient story behind it. During the Qing Dynasty, Minister Zhang Ying received a letter from his family back in his hometown of Tongcheng one day. From the letter, Zhang learned that his family had quarrelled with their neighbour Wu and his family over the boundary between their houses. Since both families held strong power in Tongcheng, the disagreement was never solved. Zhang’s family wrote the letter hoping that Zhang could make their neighbour give in. However, Zhang replied with a poem saying, “Writing a letter from home, miles away, just for a wall. All that fuss (大发牢骚) over one metre or two. Look at the long Great Wall. Long gone is its builder Emperor Qinshihuang.” His reply made the family members realize that the wall was only a temporary (暂时的) matter and that the close relationship with their neighbour was more important. So, they decided to move their wall back about one metre. In turn, the Wu family was deeply touched by this act and moved back another metre while building their wall. It created an about two-metre-wide narrow “alley” between the houses. Today, Tongcheng has become a national historical and cultural city. And the alley shows the values of tolerance and harmony (宽容与和谐) that are widely admired in China. 根据短文内容回答问题（每小题答案不超过10个单词）。 1．How wide is “Liu Chi Xiang”? 2．Where is Zhang Ying’s Hometown? 3．Why did Zhang Ying’s family write to him? 4．Who built the long Great Wall? 5．What do you think “Liu Chi Xiang” represents? Passage 3 （24-25九年级上·江苏盐城·期末）A new collection has put the spotlight on qipao. Hu Sheguang, known for his creative designs and amazing shows, presented 100 fancy qipao dresses at the CP Center in Beijing during the 2024 AW Beijing Fashion Week. There are four different styles: Flowery Woman, French-style Elegance, Rock’n’ Roll, and Neo-Chinese Style. These new designs changed how people viewed the traditional Chinese dress that had been around for a century and gave a new look to the old-fashioned Chinese dress. Qipao first appeared in the 1920s as a loose dress like the one-piece gowns that men wore and then became popular among young women. About ten years later, the dress was changed to fit women’s bodies better, making it a must-have among fashionable women, especially in Shanghai, which was considered the fashion capital of China. In the 1940s, qipao became more form-fitting (合身的) with a high collar and tight sleeves. By the 1950s, it had become a symbol of elegance. Today, many women in China still wear qipao for formal occasions. Traditional qipao dresses are usually made of silk, which can be expensive. However, Hu’s designs used different materials, including cotton, linen and leather, to make sure that more women could afford qipao. Hu also made a change to the dress’s buttons (纽扣). Instead of the traditional knot buttons, which can be difficult to tie and untie, he used zippers (拉链) in his designs. “Chinese qipao is usually custom-made to show the wearer’s individuality. Qipao is also so inclusive that it can be worn for different events, allowing every woman to be fashionable,” Hu said. 回答下面5个问题，每题答案不超过6个词。 1．What is Hu Sheguang known for? 2．How many styles are in Hu’s qipao designs? 3．When did Qipao become more form-fitting? 4．How did Hu make sure that more women could afford qipao? 5．What do you think of Qipao? 主题01 人与自我——个人经历 Passage 1 （24-25九年级上·江苏扬州·期末）Unluckily, the Nautilus hit a reef and stopped.

Then we walked into the forest and found some breadfruit trees. Ned cooked some of the breadfruit, which tasted just like real bread. We found fruits like bananas and mangoes. Ned still wanted some meat, but it was time to go back to the Nautilus. We brought the food that we had found back with us. We returned to the island the next day and hunted birds.

He stopped his speech and asked all of the people to join in a group activity. He gave a single balloon to each person in the room. Each person was asked to write his or her name on the balloon with a black marker pen. Then, all of the balloons were collected and moved to another room. The 50 people were then let into the room and told to find the balloon that had their name written on it. Everyone rushed around, wildly searching for their balloon. People were bumping into and tripping (绊倒) over each other. But even after five minutes of searching, no one could find their own balloon.

Everyone started talking to each other and asking each other for their name. Within minutes, everyone had his or her own balloon. “Can you see what happened?” the speaker said. “The balloons are like the happiness we seek in our own lives.

I said sorry to him, and he said, “Excuse me too, I wasn’t even watching for you.” We were very polite, this stranger and I. Then we went on our way after saying goodbye. Later in the kitchen at home, as I cooked our meal, my daughter Betty walked up to me, very quietly. When I turned around, I nearly knocked her down. “Get out of the way!” I shouted angrily. She ran away, crying. That night, when I lay in bed, my husband said to me, “You were so rude to Betty. Go and look around on the kitchen floor, and you’ll find some flowers there. Betty brought those for you. She picked them herself—pink, yellow, and your favorite blue.” When I heard this, I thought deeply: “While meeting with a stranger, I was calm and polite; but with my daughter, I was not patient.” I felt sad and tears began to fall. I quietly went to Betty’s bed, “Wake up, my dear.” I said, “Are these the flowers you picked for me?” She smiled, “I found them by the tree. I knew you’d like them, especially the blue.” I said, “I am so sorry that I treated (对待) you that way today.” And she whispered (悄声说), “Mommy, that’s okay—I still love you anyway. ” I kissed her and said, “I love you too and I do love the flowers.” That day Betty gave me a lesson on how to get along with each other in the family.

This spring she thought of building a go-kart (卡丁车) to enter for the Go-Go Race, so she asked her dad for help. “Well,” he said, “how about designing a go-kart after you do some research first?” A week later, Sally brought her notes and drawings to Dad. She named her go-kart “Blue Lightning”. Dad looked over her work, thinking. “Well, that’s interesting,” he said. “Have a try. Just build Blue Lightning as you’ve designed.” After three weekends of hard work, Sally turned her design into a real, working go-kart and painted it light blue. Dad asked her to take it for a test drive. Sally agreed. After she did that, Sally drove back to Dad. “Well,” she said, “now I know why you wanted me to have a test drive.” “Oh, do you?” he said, “please share.” “When I drove fast, there was a lot of push back,” she said. “I think it’s because of the lightning bolt (闪电) shape.” “Very good!” Dad said. “So, why didn’t you tell me about that problem in the first place?” Sally asked. Dad laughed. “Where’s the fun in that? If you give a man a fish, he’ll eat it for a day. But if you teach a man to fish, he’ll eat for a lifetime.” Sally said, “I see. Anyway, designing is half the fun and the other half is putting the design into practice!” Dad smiled. “Good. Sometimes, learning happens during the process. Next you can go on trying although you’ll make mistakes along the way.” That encouraged Sally and she worked even harder. When she showed Dad her new go-kart, he nodded with pride.

Even if you don’t need anything, you still leave the store with bags of new clothes. This doesn’t seem so bad. However, there are a lot of other costs behind the low price. It’s clear that the fashion industry is terrible for the earth. It uses a lot of resources (资源) and pollutes the environment with waste. Fashion is one of the least sustainable (可持续的) industries. We’ve all become our own waste managers, collecting fashion waste in our homes. It doesn’t just take up space but also ends up in landfills (垃圾场). Three out of every five pieces of clothing are sent to landfills. Luckily, second-hand clothing is becoming popular. It’s cheaper. More and more people choose to buy second-hand clothing. The value of the second-hand market may reach $80 billion by 2029, an increase of 185% compared to the value at present. In fact, there is still an even better choice. It’s not to shop at all. Making full use of what you have already had is the best choice of shopping. 1．Where will most of our clothing end up? 2．Why is second-hand clothing becoming popular? 3．How much may the value of the second-hand market reach by 2029? 4．What’s the best choice of shopping according to the passage? 5．What do you think of the fashion industry? Passage 2 （24-25九年级上·山西临汾·期末）Seventy percent of our planet is covered by the ocean. In 2008, the UN regarded June 8 as World Oceans Day. It is so important that it is now celebrated in over 100 countries around the world. It’s a day to think about the important role that the ocean plays in our lives, the dangers that our oceans are facing and the action we can take to protect the ocean. 2 ·It is home to many plants and animals on earth. ·Sea plants provide us with 70 % of the oxygen we breathe. ·It controls our climate (气候), providing heat in winter and cool air in summer. ·It also provides us with food and medicine. When people talk of exploring (开发) the sea, there are two different points. No: Sea exploration has caused many problems and will continue to cause more. More exploration means more pollution. One of the worst is plastic pollution. Many birds and fish died of this. Mining for resources (资源开采) harms a lot, especially in the Arctic. The thickest, oldest and hardest sea ice around it is melting. Climate change is warning us that something is very wrong. Overfishing is another problem. Whales and dolphins are also killed for their meat or for so-called research. Although this was not allowed in 1982, some countries are still hurt these clever animals. Yes: To truly understand our planet, we must explore the oceans. For example, some research can help answer some important questions such as climate change. We need to understand what is happening to our planet so that we can take action. Therefore, more research is necessary. Understanding more about the sea will also help us manage its resources better. It may help us discover new medicines, as well as new sources of food and energy. Getting to the deep ocean may also help us to predict events such as earthquakes. The population of the world is growing and we need new resources for future development. There are probably more resources under the sea and ice, not just oil and gas but also valuable minerals. As we all know, the ocean is the treasure to our life. Now it is crying out for our help! Remember, only when we get on well with nature, like respecting the ocean, can our world be a better place. Let’s take action now and make a difference for our future. 1．When is the World Oceans Day? 2．What’s the best title of the Chart 1? 3．What’s the worst pollution that the sea exploration cause? 4．What can we get from the sea exploration? 5．Do you think which is more important, the sea exploration or sea protection?
