I was really worried, so I went back to look for it. I knew how small the chances were of finding it, but I still wanted to give it a try. As I was fixing my eyes on the ground, I ran into an old gentleman by accident. “What’s the matter, love?” he asked nicely. “Sorry that I ran into you,” I said. “But I lost something. I’m really worried.” I explained about the missing diamond and showed him the hole in my ring. “That’s not going to be easy to find it,” he said. “Tell you what, love, I take a walk here every day. I’ll keep my eyes open for it.” I thanked him, expecting nothing. A few days later, my husband and I met the old man again in the park. “Guess what,” he said. “I found your diamond!” I couldn’t believe what I saw when the gentleman handed the diamond back to me. Then my husband offered him money for his help, _____________. The old man could have easily kept the diamond or sold it, as it’s worth several thousand dollars. But he didn’t. Now thanks to this man, I’ll spend more time trying to do something equally nice for other people.

Tigers, for example, play an important cultural role in many Asian countries. In the book Life of Pi, the writer chose a Bengal Tiger as the partner for the Indian boy Pi on his exciting journey in the Pacific Ocean. In Western countries, although lions are regarded as the king of all the animals, and even brave soldiers are given the name “the lion”, tigers are also seen as a very powerful animal. In English, if you want someone to calm down, you can say to them, “easy tiger”. Another famous phrase is “Eye of the Tiger”, which means power and strength. And when children plan to climb the tree for birds’ eggs, parents often warn them by saying “Don’t try to pull a tooth from the tiger’s mouth.” ___________. The animal zodiac system (十二生肖) is one of the examples. 2022 is the Year of the Tiger. Do you know anyone born in the Year of the Tiger? What’s their personality like? Are they brave, strong, and also sympathetic (富有同情心)? If so, then they are a typical “tiger”. Tigers are considered the king of all the animals in China. They are a symbol of power, energy and protection. That’s why people put up pictures of tigers on the walls of temples (寺庙) and houses in the hope of being protected from danger. Besides the animal zodiac system, Chinese people also show their connection with animals in other ways. 28. In the West, what animal is thought to be the king of all the animals? A. The tiger. B.

To start with, people were not able to travel such a long distance in such a short time in the past. Planes were not very popular at that time, because taking a plane used to be a very expensive way to travel. Nowadays, we have fast, comfortable vehicles, such as cars and high-speed trains. Secondly, in the past, people had to work much harder because they did not have the tools that we have today. Today, most of the difficult and dangerous work is done by computers and machines. Thirdly, in the past, the living conditions were not as good as they are now. There were no bathrooms or running water in many houses, and many people could not buy things like fridges, TV sets or washing machines. Now, most families have several of these things. Lastly, communications have become much easier than before. In the past, we kept in touch with others by writing letters or sending faxes, but now we have many other ways to choose from, such as making a phone call, sending e-mails or messages and chatting online. Moreover, we can even see the people whom we are making a phone call with through mobile phones, and we can see each other while chatting online. The most surprising thing is that we can make a phone call with the astronauts and see them when they are in space. What a magical thing! Thanks to the technology, especially the Internet, our lives have become much easier and happier than before. I’m sure they will become more wonderful in the future. Don’t you think so? 56. Why were planes not so popular many years ago? ________________________________________ 57. Can computers help people do some work now? _______________________________________ 58. What couldn’t many people buy in the past? _______________________________________ 59. Did people keep in touch with others by writing letters or chatting online in the past? _______________________________________ 60. 把划线的句子翻译成中文。 _______________________________________ 第二节 书面表达（满分15分） 61. 中国在飞速地发展，人民的生活越来越好。我们也在不断地成长，现在你已经是一名九年级的学生了，你感觉自己和以前相比有变化吗？请根据自己的体会，多角度多方面谈谈自己的变化。请以“How I Have Changed!”为题写一篇文章。 要求： 1. 至少谈三个方面的变化； 2. 语句通顺、连贯； 3. 词数 80 左右（短文题目和开头已给出，不计入总词数）。 How I Have Changed!

Did you use paper money to buy it? If so, you can thank the Chinese. ____34____ The government began using paper notes as money because there wasn’t enough copper (铜) to make coins. ____35____ We use paper in many different ways.

To start with, people were not able to travel such a long distance in such a short time in the past. Planes were not very popular at that time, because taking a plane used to be a very expensive way to travel. Nowadays, we have fast, comfortable vehicles, such as cars and high-speed trains. Secondly, in the past, people had to work much harder because they did not have the tools that we have today. Today, most of the difficult and dangerous work is done by computers and machines. Thirdly, in the past, the living conditions were not as good as they are now. There were no bathrooms or running water in many houses, and many people could not buy things like fridges, TV sets or washing machines. Now, most families have several of these things. Lastly, communications have become much easier than before. In the past, we kept in touch with others by writing letters or sending faxes, but now we have many other ways to choose from, such as making a phone call, sending e-mails or messages and chatting online. Moreover, we can even see the people whom we are making a phone call with through mobile phones, and we can see each other while chatting online. The most surprising thing is that we can make a phone call with the astronauts and see them when they are in space. What a magical thing! Thanks to the technology, especially the Internet, our lives have become much easier and happier than before. I’m sure they will become more wonderful in the future. Don’t you think so? 56.
