In the first quarter of 2024, a survey among 1,500 people shows that 97 percent of the reviews (评论) are five-star ratings. Could you imagine being in a car driven by a computer, not a human? Recently, China has made a big step toward self-driving technology. Since August, driverless taxis can run on roads in Wuhan, Chongqing and Shenzhen. First, passengers can download an app to their smartphones and tell the App where they are and where they want to go. Then, a car will appear. With cameras placed all over the car, a computer takes full control of the drive. Because of 5G coverage and BDS services, driverless taxis develop quickly in China. However, people think differently about self-driving taxis.Agree: *Driverless taxis use computers to sense the things around them and make better use of space. This means fewer traffic jams (堵塞). *Driverless taxis can provide 24-hour service, cutting down passengers’ travel costs. *Self-driving technology will speed up the development of the transportation industry. Disagree: *If something unexpected on the road happens, driverless taxis can’t react (反应) as fast as a human driver could. *Bad weather like heavy snow will make it hard for driverless taxis to see road lines. It will be difficult for sensors (传感器) to get right information about road situations, which might lead to an accident. *The popularity of driverless taxis will cause many taxi drivers to lose their jobs. *It’s clear self-driving taxis can make trips easier and more fun, but there is a lot of work to do to make self-driving taxis a common and safe transportation on our roads. 1．If you’re at Center Street and you want to go to Xinhua Bookstore, what should you do first to get a driverless taxi? 2．How many people in the survey give five-star ratings to driverless taxis? 3．Why can driverless taxis develop quickly in China? 4．How does bad weather influence driverless taxis? 5．If possible, what kind of transportation would you like to choose when you go around, traditional taxis or driverless taxis? Why? Passage 7 （山西省晋中市寿阳县多校2024-2025学年九年级上学期期中测试英语试题）请阅读下面语篇，根据其内容回答问题。 Have you watched the TV drama Meet Yourself? Since it became a huge hit on TV and online, the topic of living in the city or in the country has brought great discussion among the public. Although these two types of living differ from each other by environment, job opportunities (机会) and cost of living, they have something in common such as daily routine (日常事务), values, and people living and working in these areas. Everyone has a different lifestyle. Their choices depend on their ages, jobs, hometowns and so on. What are young people’s choices? Here is some voice from all over the world.

Martin, America I grew up on a very small farm in the country. I enjoyed the clean air and the wild life around but it was boring.

Byran, Canada I think that living in the city would be so much better than living in the country. I like being active, and I like going out. So for me, living in the country would be boring.

Every piece of work shows China’s rich culture and the talent of Chinese artists. Like tea and silk, ceramics were key products that China exported (出口) to other countries long ago. Ceramics have such a fascinating history. It might seem far away from our everyday lives. However, this art form is closely linked to the present day. The two students shared their stories about ceramics. One day, I took my Canadian friend to watch an amazing ceramic show. She was attracted (吸引)deeply by it. I introduced her something about ceramics carefully. China’s rich culture and history never fail to surprise people from other countries. When I was a kid, I joined a fun ceramic-making activity. As I shaped the clay, it slowly turned into tiny bowls and cups. Every touch of the clay brought me a sense of achievement. But the real magic came when they were added the glaze (釉). Some turned clear, while others shimmered as if they held a hidden light. How amazıng China’s ceramic culture is!

Just like the old saying goes, “New-born calves do not fear wolves.” However, in their parents’ eyes, they are not experienced enough. Parents are used to giving them lots of advice when teenagers need to make important decisions. They hope teenagers can do as they wish. The fact is that teenagers prefer to try different things in their own ways. Parents’ hope Teenagers’ choice Sports ping-pong or table tennis (one hour a week; relaxing, safe) basketball (at least thirty minutes every day; exciting) Instruments the violin or the piano (elegant) the drums or the guitar (cool, exciting) Clothes T-shirts (clean) baggy sweaters (cool) Hair black colored Chart While having disagreements, some parents are always trying to persuade (劝说) their children to follow their ideas. In such a situation, the children have fewer and fewer chances to think about things and fight for their own ideas. They will be too lazy to think about anything. Some scientists believe teenagers should be allowed to make their own decisions in their life. In some situations, parents should take it easy when children have different ideas from them rather than be nervous. For example, the children can choose what to wear while hanging out. They should also be allowed to decide when to finish their homework by themselves. If they are allowed to make a choice or a decision, they will… So it’s high time for parents to learn to accept the fact that their children are growing up and they are able to deal with a lot of things in a proper way.

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? How can we do that? Passage 3 （山西省忻州三校2024-2025学年九年级上学期期末联考英语试题）请阅读下面短文，按要求完成所给任务，并将答案填写在答题卡相应的位置上。 Language is special. Learning or forgetting a language means knowing or not knowing a way to talk. Although we don’t use our dialect (方言) very often, it still influences all of us. Since language diversity (多样性) is something we all share, it’s our responsibility to protect it. Technology can protect languages, like helping us record and save languages, spread them around and study them. But we need to be careful and work hard to protect language diversity. —Adapted from a Conference (Chart I) Dialect is a tool that people use to talk with each other. Usually, it can fully express what the speaker wants to say and achieve the goal of communication. This kind of dialect has enough power. However, nowadays, many people mainly use Putonghua in their daily lives. Even in some places where people seem to use dialects, many expressions of new things in society are mixed with the pronunciation of Putonghua, and sometimes even the whole sentence is changed to Putonghua. Home is the last place where dialects are used. According to a survey, from the communication terms used by three generations in the families of Suzhou locals, we could find the reasons that influence the use of language. First, social and cultural background including a person’s values, beliefs and customs can influence the way he or she communicates. The second is about the educational background, which can influence a person’s skilled use of language and the type of language he or she uses. We can do something to keep the family’s language tradition. For example, we can create a good environment where the family’s language is spoken and used regularly. Besides, grandparents teach children their dialect and culture, while children teach grandparents new words and expressions. Artificial intelligence (AI) uses some interesting pictures to give power to the Suzhou dialect. It hopes that the familiar local accent (口音) can bring back memories of the dialect from people’s childhood and make them feel more connected to their hometown. It also hopes that more young people will take action to protect the dialect, develop an interest in it, speak the dialect and tell more Suzhou stories in Suzhou dialect. The more a language is used, the more alive it becomes. Artificial intelligence protects the dialect through intelligent voice innovation (智能语音创新). It brings the dialect closer to young people. 1．What does “learning or forgetting a language” mean? 2．Why is technology mentioned when talking about the language in Chart I? 3．What can we know from Chart II? 4．Please fill in the blank in Chart III? 5．Do you often use dialects in your daily life? What do you think of using dialects? Passage 4 （山西省长治市2024-2025学年九年级上学期期末适应性训练英语试题）请阅读下面的图文内容，按要求完成所给任务，并将答案写在答题卡的相应位置上。 The fan is a tool for cooling off in summer. But the traditional Chinese fan is not just a tool. It’s an important part of Chinese culture. The history of the Chinese fan started over 3,000 years ago, during the Shang Dynasty. One of the earliest known “fans” was named Shanhan. They were tied to a horse-drawn carriage (马车) to keep passengers off from the strong sunshine and the rain. Then Shanhan developed into a long-handled (长柄的) fan called Zhangshan. This type of fan was mainly used by the emperor. Yushan was introduced during the Zhou Dynasty. It was expensive and was a symbol of wealth in ancient China. During the Han Dynasty, more cheap bamboo fans were invented. That increased the popularity of fans among common people. Around this time, a new kind of silk fan was also introduced. Loved by young women, the silk fans were round and looked like the moon. They were also called Tuanshan. Zheshan appeared in the Song Dynasty. The fan was welcomed as it could be folded into a shape that was easier to carry. Zheshan became really popular in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Over time, the value and meaning of Chinese fans have developed. They have become a carrier of people’s ideas and feelings. Each type of fans symbolizes (象征) something different. For example, the round silk fan means happiness and reunion. The paintings on the fans give meaning to the fans, too. For example, those with paintings of birds and flowers symbolize beauty. Others have calligraphy (书法), and this symbolizes wisdom. As a traditional gift, sending a fan is a symbol of valuable friendship. In Chinese history, there are many friendships that are expressed through the fans. 1．What was Shanhan used to do? 2．Please fill in the blanks ①and② ①   ② 3．Why was Zheshan welcomed? 4．Besides a tool for cooling off, what’s the value and meaning of Chinese fans? 5．If Mary is an exchange student and will return to Canada, what kind of fan would you like to send her?

In the first quarter of 2024, a survey among 1,500 people shows that 97 percent of the reviews (评论) are five-star ratings. Could you imagine being in a car driven by a computer, not a human? Recently, China has made a big step toward self-driving technology. Since August, driverless taxis can run on roads in Wuhan, Chongqing and Shenzhen. First, passengers can download an app to their smartphones and tell the App where they are and where they want to go. Then, a car will appear. With cameras placed all over the car, a computer takes full control of the drive. Because of 5G coverage and BDS services, driverless taxis develop quickly in China. However, people think differently about self-driving taxis.Agree: *Driverless taxis use computers to sense the things around them and make better use of space. This means fewer traffic jams (堵塞). *Driverless taxis can provide 24-hour service, cutting down passengers’ travel costs. *Self-driving technology will speed up the development of the transportation industry. Disagree: *If something unexpected on the road happens, driverless taxis can’t react (反应) as fast as a human driver could. *Bad weather like heavy snow will make it hard for driverless taxis to see road lines. It will be difficult for sensors (传感器) to get right information about road situations, which might lead to an accident. *The popularity of driverless taxis will cause many taxi drivers to lose their jobs. *It’s clear self-driving taxis can make trips easier and more fun, but there is a lot of work to do to make self-driving taxis a common and safe transportation on our roads. 1．If you’re at Center Street and you want to go to Xinhua Bookstore, what should you do first to get a driverless taxi? 2．How many people in the survey give five-star ratings to driverless taxis? 3．Why can driverless taxis develop quickly in China? 4．How does bad weather influence driverless taxis? 5．If possible, what kind of transportation would you like to choose when you go around, traditional taxis or driverless taxis?

Passage 3 （山西省忻州三校2024-2025学年九年级上学期期末联考英语试题）请阅读下面短文，按要求完成所给任务，并将答案填写在答题卡相应的位置上。 Language is special. Learning or forgetting a language means knowing or not knowing a way to talk. Although we don’t use our dialect (方言) very often, it still influences all of us. Since language diversity (多样性) is something we all share, it’s our responsibility to protect it. Technology can protect languages, like helping us record and save languages, spread them around and study them. But we need to be careful and work hard to protect language diversity. —Adapted from a Conference (Chart I) Dialect is a tool that people use to talk with each other. Usually, it can fully express what the speaker wants to say and achieve the goal of communication. This kind of dialect has enough power. However, nowadays, many people mainly use Putonghua in their daily lives. Even in some places where people seem to use dialects, many expressions of new things in society are mixed with the pronunciation of Putonghua, and sometimes even the whole sentence is changed to Putonghua. Home is the last place where dialects are used. According to a survey, from the communication terms used by three generations in the families of Suzhou locals, we could find the reasons that influence the use of language. First, social and cultural background including a person’s values, beliefs and customs can influence the way he or she communicates. The second is about the educational background, which can influence a person’s skilled use of language and the type of language he or she uses. We can do something to keep the family’s language tradition. For example, we can create a good environment where the family’s language is spoken and used regularly. Besides, grandparents teach children their dialect and culture, while children teach grandparents new words and expressions. Artificial intelligence (AI) uses some interesting pictures to give power to the Suzhou dialect. It hopes that the familiar local accent (口音) can bring back memories of the dialect from people’s childhood and make them feel more connected to their hometown. It also hopes that more young people will take action to protect the dialect, develop an interest in it, speak the dialect and tell more Suzhou stories in Suzhou dialect. The more a language is used, the more alive it becomes. Artificial intelligence protects the dialect through intelligent voice innovation (智能语音创新). It brings the dialect closer to young people. 1．What does “learning or forgetting a language” mean? 2．Why is technology mentioned when talking about the language in Chart I? 3．What can we know from Chart II? 4．Please fill in the blank in Chart III? 5．Do you often use dialects in your daily life? What do you think of using dialects? 【答案】1．It means knowing or not knowing a way to talk. 2．To show that technology can protect the languages. 3．We know that the old use dialect more often than the young. 4．Educational background. 5．Yes, I often use dialects in my daily life. I think it can help us communicate with the local people better. (开放性试题，言之有理即可) 【导语】本文主要讨论了语言多样性的重要性以及保护方言的必要性，特别强调了人工智能和技术在保护和传承方言中的作用。 1．根据“Learning or forgetting a language means knowing or not knowing a way to talk. ”可知，学习或忘记一门语言意味着知道或不知道一种说话方式，故填It means knowing or not knowing a way to talk. 2．根据表格I中“Technology can protect languages, like helping us record and save languages, spread them around and study them.”可知，文中提到技术是为了表明技术可以保护语言，故填To show that technology can protect the languages. 3．根据表格Ⅱ中的数据可知，老年人比年轻人更常使用这种方言。故填We know that the old use dialect more often than the young. 4．根据“The second is about the educational background, which can influence a person’s skilled use of language and the type of language he or she uses.”可知，教育背景是影响语言使用的另一原因，故填Educational background. 5．开放性试题，言之有理即可，参考答案为Yes, I often use dialects in my daily life.

But the traditional Chinese fan is not just a tool. It’s an important part of Chinese culture. The history of the Chinese fan started over 3,000 years ago, during the Shang Dynasty. One of the earliest known “fans” was named Shanhan. They were tied to a horse-drawn carriage (马车) to keep passengers off from the strong sunshine and the rain. Then Shanhan developed into a long-handled (长柄的) fan called Zhangshan. This type of fan was mainly used by the emperor. Yushan was introduced during the Zhou Dynasty. It was expensive and was a symbol of wealth in ancient China. During the Han Dynasty, more cheap bamboo fans were invented. That increased the popularity of fans among common people. Around this time, a new kind of silk fan was also introduced. Loved by young women, the silk fans were round and looked like the moon. They were also called Tuanshan. Zheshan appeared in the Song Dynasty. The fan was welcomed as it could be folded into a shape that was easier to carry. Zheshan became really popular in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Over time, the value and meaning of Chinese fans have developed. They have become a carrier of people’s ideas and feelings. Each type of fans symbolizes (象征) something different. For example, the round silk fan means happiness and reunion. The paintings on the fans give meaning to the fans, too. For example, those with paintings of birds and flowers symbolize beauty.
