Shake hands, give a hug or bow? Let’s try to learn more about the greeting ways.

Of course not. A popular choice in recent years is the fleece (摇粒绒). But where did the material come from? And how did it take over our wardrobes (衣橱)? In fact, fleece wasn’t sold to the public until 1981. Before fleece, there was wool. People who lived around the Alpine Lakes in Switzerland used wool for clothing as far back as the 7th century BC． Historians believe that it has been keeping our bodies warm before recorded history. But wool has some disadvantages. First, it takes in water. And when it does, it smells funny. It’s also slow to dry and difficult to clean. Don’t even mention that it makes you feel itchy (痒的). And people began to search for a better substitute. The ideal material would have none of those problems but would still be able to keep us warm. In the early material produced by Patagonia, a clothing company, a fleece of poor quality was used. The idea came from a fabric (布料) found in a store in Canada. From there, the search for the perfect fabric continued. The choice fell on a material found in a warehouse in Los Angeles. The fabric was being used to make table covers. It looked nothing special but had an interesting texture (质地). Patagonia then turned to fabric factory Malden Mills. Engineers at Malden Mills tested it. They turned polyester yam (聚酯纤维纱线) into a fabric with high quality. In 1981, Polar Fleece was successfully developed. The fabric could do what wool could, and more. It quickly became a must-have for outdoor protection. Soon after, the world fell in love with the light yet strong fleece. It also started getting fashionable as more clothing companies created their own kinds. It even became a popular material for pet clothing! 1．What is a popular material to keep warm recently? A．Furs.

Doctor can judge their physical condition (身体状况) by using it. A dentist can use X-rays to look at teeth. And airport workers use an X-ray machine to check objects before a plane leaves. Nowadays, X-ray technology is widely used in medicine and other fields. X-rays were first discovered by a German scientist, Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen (1845—1923). He found them quite by accident in 1895. One day, he discovered that an unknown kind of radiation could hardly pass through hard objects like bones. Later, Röntgen took a photo of his wife’s hand. It clearly showed her ring and her bones. That was the first X-ray photo in the world. Why is there an “X” in the word X-ray? It’s because Röntgen couldn’t explain exactly how it worked. He just knew that X-rays were new and useful for science. In fact, X-rays soon became an important tool in medicine. With the help of X-rays, doctors could see inside the human body for the first time without surgery, which could bring great pain to patients.

On February 27, 2024, an eVTOL aircraft finished its first test flight in Guangdong and got a lot of attention from around the world. The flight started from Shekou Cruise Home Port in Shenzhen to Jiuzhou Port in Zhuhai. The distance (距离) between these two places is about 60 kilometers. The whole trip took about 20 minutes by the eVTOL aircraft. It will be a faster choice for passengers travelling between Shenzhen and Zhuhai in Guangzhou. Travelling by car, however, usually takes about two to three hours. The eVTOL aircraft looks like a small plane. Unlike a plane, it doesn’t need a long runway to take off and land on the ground. Instead, it can go straight up and down. This new aircraft is powered by electricity. It can travel 250 kilometers on a single charge. It can carry up to five people at a speed of up to 200 kilometers per hour. The eVTOL aircraft was developed by a high-tech company named Prosperity. The company is applying for a permit (许可证) for an operation. If everything goes well, it hopes that the aircraft will start carrying passengers in 2026. Moreover, Guangzhou is making efforts to encourage low-altitude flights (低空飞行), which will be used in many areas such as low-altitude tourism, delivery (运输), and farming in the future. Many experts believe that the achievements of low-altitude flights will make a great contribution to the city’s development. 1．What did the eVTOL aircraft do on February 27, 2024? A．It took a trip on a plane. B．It had a low-altitude flight. C．It finished its first test flight. D．It carried 5 people to Guangdong. 2．The word “It” in paragraph 2 refers to ________ . A．The whole trip B．The first test flight C．The car for travelling D．The eVTOL aircraft 3．Which paragraph tells us what the “air taxi” look like? A．The second paragraph. B．The third paragraph. C．The fourth paragraph. D．The fifth paragraph. 4．Which are some possible uses for low-altitude flights in the future? a. low-altitude tourism      b. delivery      c. fishing industry      d. farming A．a, b, c B．b, c, d C．a, b, d D．a, c, d 5．What’s the main theme of the passage? A．Technology B．Culture C．Sports D．Health 主题01 人与自然——植物与生态 Passage 6 (24-25九上·云南曲靖·期末) There’s nothing better than a walk in the countryside for lifting our spirits. Connecting with nature can help our mental health (心理健康). For many people, it feels great to take a walk through a forest, but as we admire the trees around us, it’s worth knowing these trees are doing more than just being nice things to look at. We have already noticed that trees play an important role in taking care of our world—they produce oxygen and clean the air we breathe by taking in about a quarter of all human-caused carbon dioxide emissions (二氧化碳排放). But there’s more to these trees than we might think. Researchers have discovered that they are actually very smart. It’s thought that trees use a fungal network (真菌网络) to talk and share resources right under our feet. Under the ground are tree roots, bacteria and super fine threads of fungi. And research has shown that they are all mixed together. They can help each other by sharing “food”, and they can even tell them some coming dangers. Scientists say it’s like the trees are talking to one another. Ecologist Suzanne Simard has called this network the Wood Wide Web. She discovered that parent trees use this network to help their children. She also found that trees are smart enough to change their behaviour to live in a changing environment. So it seems trees really are the stars of our natural world, and with around three trillion of them on our planet, it’s time to show them some respect if we want them to grow better. 1．What can trees do in taking care of our world according to paragraph 2? ① Produce oxygen. ② Clean the air. ③ Produce carbon dioxide. ④ Provide food. A．①② B．②③ C．①④ D．②④ 2．What does the underlined word “they” in paragraph 3 refer to? A．Scientists. B．Ecologists. C．Trees. D．Humans. 3．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A．Ecologist Suzanne Simard does quite a lot of research on mental health. B．It’s thought that trees talk and share resources by using a fungal network. C．Trees take in three quarters of human-caused carbon dioxide emissions. D．Trees never change their behavior to live in a changing environment. 4．Where can we probably read this passage? A．In a book review. B．In a travel guide. C．In a medical report. D．In a science magazine. 5．What’s the best title for the passage? A．Ways to Clean Air B．The Importance of Trees C．Ways to Protect Nature D．Planting Trees More 主题03 人与自然——太空探索 Passage 7 (24-25九上·云南昭通市永善县·期末) If you watch the sky for about an hour after the sun goes down, you may see some “moving stars”. But they’re not real stars. They’re man-made satellites (人造卫星) . And the biggest of all is the International Space Station (ISS) . From May to July is the best season to watch the ISS flying over the earth. And people can see it with their eyes. The ISS is the biggest satellite and scientists want to live on it. They think that the best way to learn more about space is to live there. When the space station is finished, it will be like a city in space. People will stay and study there with many of the things they have at home. Laboratories, living rooms and power stations are being built. The ISS is the most expensive space program. Billions of dollars are being spent on it every year. Scientists hope that the ISS will be a stepping stone for future space exploration (探测). “The ISS will help us understand the human body better, explore space and study the earth. It can help us make life on the earth better,” said Kathryn Clark, an ISS scientist. Sixteen countries are parts of the program: the US, Russia, Canada, Japan, Brazil and 11 European countries. China isn’t an ISS country, but it has helped with some of the experiments. In 2003, China sent some rice up to the ISS to find out what space would do to it. 1．The International Space Station ________. A．is really a big city in space B．is the biggest man-made satellite C．can only help us explore space D．is mainly built by the USA and Russia 2．From the passage we know that ________.

D．The ISS costs the members of 16 countries plenty of money every year. 主题03 人与自然——环保行动 Passage 8 (24-25九上·玉溪市峨山彝族自治县·期末) Big news! This year on Tree-planting Day, a Shanghai woman paid 8,000 yuan to adopt a cypress tree (认养一棵柏树) online. The cypress tree is 80 years old and is in Guyiyuan, a beautiful place in Shanghai. The tree adoption program started in 2017. It lets people adopt trees online across Shanghai. Some trees are very expensive to adopt. Other trees, however, are cheap. Usually, one needs to spend around 90 yuan adopting a tree. When people adopt a tree, they get a special certificate (证书) online. The adoption program is very popular. Many people like it and they adopt different kinds of trees. The most popular trees for adoption are the ones with beautiful flowers. Some people also love famous old trees. These years, Shanghai is promoting the tree adoption program and trying to get more people to join. They also make it easy for people to adopt trees on the Internet.

They can’t talk. They can’t walk. And they can’t think like us. Then what can they do? A new TV program, The Green Planet, shows the wonderful way that plants behave. Each plant has its own ways of protecting itself. In the rainforest, different kinds of plants compete for sunlight. Some plants spread their big leaves to reach light. But they are caught up in a vine (藤本植物) that tries to get a ride. As the tree has smooth hairs on its leaves, the vine can’t catch up. Similarly, some trees try to protect themselves in other ways. Plants also help each other and even communicate. In deserts, the roots (根) of Euphrates poplar trees (胡杨树) are connected. If a Euphrates poplar tree finds water, it will share it with others through the roots. Studies also show that plants use fungus (真菌) as a way to “talk” to each other. If a tomato plant gets a leaf disease, it can tell nearby plants about it. How amazing the plants are! The TV show not only lets us amaze at the magic plant world but also pushes us to understand that plants are important. “Plants are the needs of all life including ourselves.” said David, the host of the show. It’s time to pay attention to and protect plants. 1．What’s the purpose of the program The Green Planet? A．To tell where wonderful plants live. B．To show people how to grow plants. C．To explain why plants can’t talk and think. D．To introduce wonderful way that plants behave. 2．How does the writer support the main idea of Paragraph 3? A．By giving examples. B．By listing numbers.

The 25 ethnic (少数民族的) groups enrich its culture as well. Kunming, the capital of Yunnan, is also known as the Eternal Spring City, and as “the City of Flowers” around the world. The reason why Kunming is the flower center is because of the pleasant weather in Yunnan and the soil is perfect for growing flowers. Every year, a large number of people come to this city to revel in its sea of colors. Dounan Flower Market is the largest flower trading market in Asia which is almost five football fields in size, selling nearly 1,600 kinds of flowers. In the southern most point of Yunnan, there are wild Asian elephants living with the local people in the tropical rainforest in Xishuangbanna. And it is the most well-protected ecosystem in China. Pu’er is widely known for tea and it is grown on the side of the mountains. When the tea leaves are ready, they are picked leaf by leaf with hand and sent for processing. And then the tea is sent to many different countries and places around China. The tea ceremony (茶道) is getting more and more popular, and it’s also a very important part of business in Yunnan.

We again find ourselves deciding what to wear to protect us against the cold. Animal furs? Of course not. A popular choice in recent years is the fleece (摇粒绒). But where did the material come from? And how did it take over our wardrobes (衣橱)? In fact, fleece wasn’t sold to the public until 1981. Before fleece, there was wool. People who lived around the Alpine Lakes in Switzerland used wool for clothing as far back as the 7th century BC． Historians believe that it has been keeping our bodies warm before recorded history. But wool has some disadvantages. First, it takes in water. And when it does, it smells funny. It’s also slow to dry and difficult to clean. Don’t even mention that it makes you feel itchy (痒的). And people began to search for a better substitute. The ideal material would have none of those problems but would still be able to keep us warm. In the early material produced by Patagonia, a clothing company, a fleece of poor quality was used. The idea came from a fabric (布料) found in a store in Canada. From there, the search for the perfect fabric continued. The choice fell on a material found in a warehouse in Los Angeles. The fabric was being used to make table covers. It looked nothing special but had an interesting texture (质地). Patagonia then turned to fabric factory Malden Mills. Engineers at Malden Mills tested it. They turned polyester yam (聚酯纤维纱线) into a fabric with high quality. In 1981, Polar Fleece was successfully developed. The fabric could do what wool could, and more. It quickly became a must-have for outdoor protection. Soon after, the world fell in love with the light yet strong fleece. It also started getting fashionable as more clothing companies created their own kinds. It even became a popular material for pet clothing! 1．What is a popular material to keep warm recently? A．Furs. B．Wool. C．Fleece. D．Polyester. 2．Which statement is TRUE about wool according to Paragraph 2 & 3? A．Wool was first used by people in Switzerland. B．Wool does not smell so good after it gets wet.

D．How fleece was produced. 5．What can be the best title for the text? A．The Company’s Ideal Material B．How Fleece Took Over the World C．Fleece or Wool, Which do You Prefer D．The Must-have for Outdoor Protection 【答案】1．C 2．B 3．A 4．D 5．B 【导语】本文主要介绍了摇粒绒的产生以及其用于制作服装的优点。 1．细节理解题。根据第一段中的“A popular choice in recent years is the fleece (摇粒绒).”可知，最近流行的保暖材料是摇粒绒。故选C。 2．细节理解题。根据第三段中的“But wool has some disadvantages. First, it takes in water. And when it does, it smells funny.”可知，羊毛吸水后有异味。故选B。 3．词句猜测题。根据“And people began to search for a better substitute. The ideal material would have none of those problems but would still be able to keep us warm.”可知，人们开始寻找更理想的材料来代替羊毛，所以划线部分的含义是“替代 ”。故选A。 4．主旨大意题。根据第四段中的“In 1981, Polar Fleece was successfully developed.”并通读本段可知，本段主要介绍了摇粒绒是如何产生的。故选D。 5．最佳标题题。根据第一段中的“A popular choice in recent years is the fleece (摇粒绒). But where did the material come from? And how did it take over our wardrobes (衣橱)?”并通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了摇粒绒的产生以及其用于制作服装的优点，所以B项“摇粒绒是如何征服世界的”最符合。故选B。 主题01 人与社会——历史文化 Passage 3 (24-25九上·云南昆明官渡区·期末) In 1929, an old farmer in Sichuan found the Sanxingdui Ruins (三星堆遗址)accidentally.

It’s one of the oldest types of music in the world. Chinese ancient music was different from modern pieces. The ancient Chinese played instruments, but they didn’t have a lot of songs with words. A lot of the music was for ceremonies and big events. The most famous instrument in ancient China was the guqin. It’s a kind of stringed instrument (弦乐器). People thought the guqin was very beautiful. They believed it could make people happy or sad, and even change the weather! In the Tang Dynasty (618—907), there were many kinds of instruments. Music was important to the government. As a result, there were lots of musicians at the palace. Some of them came from other countries. They played their own music and sometimes they taught the Chinese how to play new instruments. During the Song Dynasty (960—1279), the Chinese developed new instruments. One of these was the pipa. It’s a kind of guitar with four strings. Musicians wrote over 200 songs for it. These songs are still popular today. In the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) and the Qing Dynasty (1644—1912), there were many new styles of music. Some music was for the theatre. Other music was for the home. Beijing Opera is a traditional form of Chinese theater. It uses many different instruments, including the guqin and the xun. Today, Chinese music is a mix of traditional and modern music. There are many pop stars in China and people listen to music from all over the world. But traditional Chinese music is still popular, too. 1．What was the most famous instrument in ancient China? A．The guzheng. B．The pipa. C．The guqin. D．The erhu. 2．How many songs did the musicians write for the new instrument, the pipa? A．Just 20 songs. B．About 150 songs. C．Less than 200 songs.

Doctor can judge their physical condition (身体状况) by using it. A dentist can use X-rays to look at teeth. And airport workers use an X-ray machine to check objects before a plane leaves. Nowadays, X-ray technology is widely used in medicine and other fields. X-rays were first discovered by a German scientist, Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen (1845—1923). He found them quite by accident in 1895. One day, he discovered that an unknown kind of radiation could hardly pass through hard objects like bones. Later, Röntgen took a photo of his wife’s hand. It clearly showed her ring and her bones. That was the first X-ray photo in the world. Why is there an “X” in the word X-ray? It’s because Röntgen couldn’t explain exactly how it worked. He just knew that X-rays were new and useful for science. In fact, X-rays soon became an important tool in medicine. With the help of X-rays, doctors could see inside the human body for the first time without surgery, which could bring great pain to patients. Röntgen was awarded the first Nobel Prize in physics in 1901 for his discovery. He gave away his Nobel Prize money to his university (大学). And he never took out any patents (专利权) on X-rays, to make sure that the world could freely make use of his discovery. 1．According to the text, what can an X-ray be used for? a. Looking at teeth.        b. Checking objects. c. Studying new medicine.    d. Judging physical condition. A．a, b, c B．a, b, d C．b, c, d D．a, c, d 2．Whose hand was in the first X-ray photo? A．Röntgen’s. B．Röntgen’s wife’s. C．Röntgen’s patient’s. D．Röntgen’s student’s. 3．Why did Röntgen name the radiation “X-ray”? A．Because he knew X-ray very well. B．Because he followed his wife’s advice. C．Because he thought “X” was a lucky letter. D．Because he couldn’t explain exactly how it worked. 4．What does the underlined word “surgery” in paragraph 3 probably mean in Chinese? A．医学仪器 B．特效药物 C．外科手术 D．病情介绍 5．What can be the best title for the text?

On February 27, 2024, an eVTOL aircraft finished its first test flight in Guangdong and got a lot of attention from around the world. The flight started from Shekou Cruise Home Port in Shenzhen to Jiuzhou Port in Zhuhai. The distance (距离) between these two places is about 60 kilometers. The whole trip took about 20 minutes by the eVTOL aircraft. It will be a faster choice for passengers travelling between Shenzhen and Zhuhai in Guangzhou. Travelling by car, however, usually takes about two to three hours. The eVTOL aircraft looks like a small plane. Unlike a plane, it doesn’t need a long runway to take off and land on the ground. Instead, it can go straight up and down. This new aircraft is powered by electricity. It can travel 250 kilometers on a single charge. It can carry up to five people at a speed of up to 200 kilometers per hour. The eVTOL aircraft was developed by a high-tech company named Prosperity. The company is applying for a permit (许可证) for an operation. If everything goes well, it hopes that the aircraft will start carrying passengers in 2026. Moreover, Guangzhou is making efforts to encourage low-altitude flights (低空飞行), which will be used in many areas such as low-altitude tourism, delivery (运输), and farming in the future.

Connecting with nature can help our mental health (心理健康). For many people, it feels great to take a walk through a forest, but as we admire the trees around us, it’s worth knowing these trees are doing more than just being nice things to look at. We have already noticed that trees play an important role in taking care of our world—they produce oxygen and clean the air we breathe by taking in about a quarter of all human-caused carbon dioxide emissions (二氧化碳排放). But there’s more to these trees than we might think. Researchers have discovered that they are actually very smart. It’s thought that trees use a fungal network (真菌网络) to talk and share resources right under our feet. Under the ground are tree roots, bacteria and super fine threads of fungi. And research has shown that they are all mixed together. They can help each other by sharing “food”, and they can even tell them some coming dangers. Scientists say it’s like the trees are talking to one another. Ecologist Suzanne Simard has called this network the Wood Wide Web. She discovered that parent trees use this network to help their children. She also found that trees are smart enough to change their behaviour to live in a changing environment. So it seems trees really are the stars of our natural world, and with around three trillion of them on our planet, it’s time to show them some respect if we want them to grow better. 1．What can trees do in taking care of our world according to paragraph 2? ① Produce oxygen. ② Clean the air. ③ Produce carbon dioxide. ④ Provide food. A．①② B．②③ C．①④ D．②④ 2．What does the underlined word “they” in paragraph 3 refer to? A．Scientists. B．Ecologists. C．Trees. D．Humans. 3．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A．Ecologist Suzanne Simard does quite a lot of research on mental health. B．It’s thought that trees talk and share resources by using a fungal network. C．Trees take in three quarters of human-caused carbon dioxide emissions. D．Trees never change their behavior to live in a changing environment. 4．Where can we probably read this passage? A．In a book review. B．In a travel guide. C．In a medical report. D．In a science magazine. 5．What’s the best title for the passage? A．Ways to Clean Air B．The Importance of Trees C．Ways to Protect Nature D．Planting Trees More 【答案】1．A 2．C 3．B 4．D 5．B 【导语】本文讲述了树木在自然界中的重要性，包括其净化空气、通过真菌网络交流及适应环境变化的能力，以及我们应给予尊重以促进其更好生长。 1．细节理解题。根据“...that trees play an important role in taking care of our world —they produce oxygen and clean the air we breathe...”可知，树木能产生氧气并净化空气。故选A。 2．词义猜测题。根据“But there’s more to these trees than we might think. Researchers have discovered that they are actually very smart.”可知，此处“they”指代上句的“trees”，表示“树木实际上非常聪明”。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据“It’s thought that trees use a fungal network (真菌网络) to talk and share resources right under our feet.”可知，人们认为，树木通过我们脚下的真菌网络进行交流并共享资源。故选B。 4．推理判断题。通读全文可知，本文讲述了树木在自然界中的重要性，适合出现在科学杂志中。故选D。 5．最佳标题题。通读全文可知，本文讲述了树木在自然界中的重要性，最佳标题应是“树木的重要性”。故选B。 主题03 人与自然——太空探索 Passage 7 (24-25九上·云南昭通市永善县·期末) If you watch the sky for about an hour after the sun goes down, you may see some “moving stars”. But they’re not real stars. They’re man-made satellites (人造卫星) . And the biggest of all is the International Space Station (ISS) . From May to July is the best season to watch the ISS flying over the earth. And people can see it with their eyes. The ISS is the biggest satellite and scientists want to live on it. They think that the best way to learn more about space is to live there. When the space station is finished, it will be like a city in space. People will stay and study there with many of the things they have at home. Laboratories, living rooms and power stations are being built. The ISS is the most expensive space program. Billions of dollars are being spent on it every year. Scientists hope that the ISS will be a stepping stone for future space exploration (探测). “The ISS will help us understand the human body better, explore space and study the earth. It can help us make life on the earth better,” said Kathryn Clark, an ISS scientist. Sixteen countries are parts of the program: the US, Russia, Canada, Japan, Brazil and 11 European countries. China isn’t an ISS country, but it has helped with some of the experiments.

They can’t talk. They can’t walk. And they can’t think like us. Then what can they do? A new TV program, The Green Planet, shows the wonderful way that plants behave. Each plant has its own ways of protecting itself. In the rainforest, different kinds of plants compete for sunlight. Some plants spread their big leaves to reach light. But they are caught up in a vine (藤本植物) that tries to get a ride. As the tree has smooth hairs on its leaves, the vine can’t catch up. Similarly, some trees try to protect themselves in other ways. Plants also help each other and even communicate. In deserts, the roots (根) of Euphrates poplar trees (胡杨树) are connected. If a Euphrates poplar tree finds water, it will share it with others through the roots. Studies also show that plants use fungus (真菌) as a way to “talk” to each other. If a tomato plant gets a leaf disease, it can tell nearby plants about it. How amazing the plants are! The TV show not only lets us amaze at the magic plant world but also pushes us to understand that plants are important. “Plants are the needs of all life including ourselves.” said David, the host of the show. It’s time to pay attention to and protect plants. 1．What’s the purpose of the program The Green Planet? A．To tell where wonderful plants live. B．To show people how to grow plants.
