外研版初中英语九年级下册M5单元练习题 (考试时间90分钟，满分120分) 一、阅读理解（共4篇，20小题；每题2分，满分40分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A Thanks to the rapid development of medical services, people nowadays are enjoying healthier and longer lives compared to those in the past. A person born in the 21st century can expect to live around 35 years longer than someone who came into the world in the 1800s. Experts even predict that a growing number of people will reach their 100th birthday in the future. To help people achieve this goal of a long and healthy life, here are five practical rules to follow. 1. Stay active and avoid being a couch potato! It’s really cozy to lie on the sofa and binge-watch your favorite TV shows. However, medical experts strongly advise everyone to get up and move around. To maintain a healthy body, you need to take at least 10,000 steps every single day. In the old days, most jobs involved a great deal of physical labor. Farmers had to walk long distances to work in the fields, and workers often carried heavy goods on foot. These daily activities naturally kept them in good shape. Now, ask yourself: Do you get the same level of daily exercise as people did back then? 2. Stick to a healthy diet! Eating fresh and natural food, such as various fruits and green vegetables, is essential for your health. Junk food like fried chicken and hamburgers is harmful and should only be eaten occasionally. Overeating unhealthy food can cause serious damage to your body over time. 3. Make time for proper rest! When we were little babies, we spent most of the night sleeping. Although teenagers don’t need as much sleep as infants, getting about 8 hours of sleep each night is still critical. On weekends, you have more free time — don’t just spend it hanging out with friends; remember to take a break and recharge your energy too. 4. Keep a positive mood and don’t stress out! Numerous studies have shown that happiness plays a key role in maintaining overall health. Being a teenager is not always easy, with pressure from schoolwork, exams and friendship problems. If something is bothering you, don’t keep it to yourself — talk to your parents or teachers, who can offer you helpful advice. 5. Never try smoking! You probably saw this one coming, but it’s worth emphasizing. Smoking is by no means a sign of being “cool”. Instead, it’s an extremely dangerous habit that harms almost every organ in your body. Think about how your family and friends would feel if you started smoking, and consider the terrible impact it would have on your health. 1. How much longer can a person born today live than those born in the nineteenth century? A. About 25 years B. About 35 years C. About 45 years D. About 55 years 2. What does the writer advise people to do to keep fit? A. Watch more TV programs B. Take at least 10,000 steps daily C. Do heavy physical labor like farmers D. Sleep for most of the day 3.

Talk to their teachers or parents D. Ignore the problems completely B Dr. Green is a well-known expert on health and longevity. In a recent speech, she shared her views on why people are living longer now. “The biggest reason is the improvement in health care systems,” she said. “We have better hospitals, more advanced medical equipment and more effective medicines. All these things help people treat diseases more easily.” Dr. Green also mentioned that people’s living habits have changed a lot. “In the past, many people died young because of poor living conditions and lack of food. Now, most people have enough to eat and live in clean and comfortable houses. They also pay more attention to exercise and a balanced diet, which are very important for health.” However, Dr. Green warned that there are also some new health problems. “More and more people are suffering from obesity and high blood pressure because they eat too much junk food and don’t exercise enough. These diseases can shorten people’s lives if they are not controlled properly.” To live a long and healthy life, Dr. Green suggested that people should exercise regularly, eat healthy food, get enough sleep and stay away from bad habits like smoking and drinking. “It’s never too late to start a healthy lifestyle,” she added. 6.

Which of the following is NOT Dr. Green’s suggestion for a healthy life? A. Exercise regularly B. Eat junk food every day C. Get enough sleep D. Stay away from smoking 10. What can we learn from Dr. Green’s speech? A. People can’t live longer without advanced medical equipment B. A healthy lifestyle is important for a long life C. Junk food is the main cause of all diseases D. It’s too late for old people to start a healthy lifestyle C Happiness is not only a feeling but also a key to good health. A recent study by a group of scientists found that happy people are more likely to live longer than unhappy ones. The study followed more than 1,000 people for over 20 years. The results showed that people who were happy and positive about life lived an average of 7.5 years longer than those who were often sad or angry. The scientists explained that happiness can reduce stress, which is harmful to the body. “Stress can cause many health problems, such as heart disease and high blood pressure,” said one of the scientists. “Happy people usually have lower levels of stress, so they are less likely to get these diseases.” Happiness can also boost people’s immune systems. A strong immune system helps the body fight against viruses and bacteria. Happy people are more likely to stay healthy and avoid getting sick. So, how can we become happier? The scientists suggested that we should spend time with family and friends, do things we enjoy, and be grateful for what we have. “Small things like listening to music, reading a book or taking a walk can make us happy,” they added. 11.

Reduce stress C. Improve memory D. Increase appetite 15. Which of the following is NOT a way to become happier? A. Spending time with family and friends B. Doing things we enjoy C. Being grateful for what we have D. Worrying about small things D Smoking is one of the most dangerous habits in the world. Every year, millions of people die from diseases caused by smoking, such as lung cancer and heart disease. Smoking is not only harmful to smokers themselves but also to people around them — this is called second-hand smoke. Second-hand smoke contains more than 7,000 chemicals, many of which are toxic. It can cause serious health problems for non-smokers, especially children and pregnant women. Children who are exposed to second-hand smoke are more likely to get asthma and other respiratory diseases. Pregnant women who breathe second-hand smoke may have babies with low birth weight. Many countries have made laws to ban smoking in public places, such as restaurants, offices and parks. This is to protect non-smokers from the harm of second-hand smoke. Some countries also charge high taxes on cigarettes to discourage people from smoking. If you are a smoker, it’s never too late to quit. Quitting smoking can improve your health immediately. You will have more energy, breathe more easily and reduce your risk of getting lung cancer and other diseases. There are many ways to quit smoking, such as using nicotine patches, joining a support group or asking for help from a doctor. 16. What diseases can smoking cause according to the passage? A.
