Passage 1
(23-24九年级上·辽宁沈阳·铁西区期末)
Sometimes when the rain falls hard and fast on you, it might hurt a little. But what happens when it hits a mosquito (蚊子)? A 2012 study says when a raindrop falls on a mosquito, it’s like when a bus hits a person. Besides, the little insect is hit by a raindrop about once every 20 seconds. 1
A mosquito is as big as a raindrop, but it is much lighter — 0.002g only. 2 Because the mosquito is so light, when it is hit by a raindrop, it won’t experience a force (力量) that is strong enough to kill it.
The study also found that when a mosquito is hit by a raindrop, the insect is pushed by the raindrop and falls together with it. 3 Why? Because it is covered with hairs which keep off water. After dropping about 6 cm, it will roll (翻滚) off the raindrop and fly away.
4 If the mosquito flies too low when it is hit by the raindrop, it won’t have time to fly off. Then it will hit the ground and meet its death.
A.A mosquito will die when it rains.
B.This saves its life in raindrop attacks.
C.But the mosquito doesn’t get wet easily.
D.However, this trick isn’t always successful.
E.So why don’t we see many dead mosquitoes after it rains?

Passage 3
(23-24九年级上·辽宁沈阳·沈河区期末)阅读短文,从文后所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,其中有一个多余的选项。
OCTOPUSES are famous for their round bodies, big eyes and eight arms. 1 But one thing about them is the same: They are good at disguising (伪装) themselves. Octopuses can change their appearance in less than a second!
An octopus can do this in three ways. One is by using color. An octopus’s skin (皮肤) has special cells (细胞). These cells are full of yellow, brown and red pigments (色素). When an octopus moves its muscles (肌肉) in a certain way, the cells become large. These cells produce colorful spots (斑点) and other patterns (图案) on the octopus’s skin. 2 Under blue light, for example, an octopus’s skin will look blue. With these cells, an octopus can produce many different skin colors and patterns.
An octopus can also change the texture (结构) of its skin. When the octopus moves its muscles, its skin can go from smooth to spiky (有尖刺的). It might then look like a plant. 3 Some octopuses, for example, roll their bodies into balls so they look like rocks. One type of octopus can change its shape to look like other sea animals-especially dangerous ones, such as sea snakes.
Why are octopuses so good at changing their looks? They have to be. 4 Because they have no bones in their bodies, octopuses are like large pieces of meat. Many other sea animals want to eat them. To hide from these animals, octopuses have developed this amazing ability.
A.The cells can also reflect (反射) light.
B.The ocean is not a safe place for them.
C.What should we do to protect octopuses?
D.There are many different kinds of octopuses.
E.Another way an octopus uses is to change its shape.
Passage 4
(23-24九年级上·辽宁沈阳·和平区期末)People have painted pictures for at least 30,000 years.
The earliest pictures were painted by people who hunted animals. They used to paint pictures of the animals they wanted to catch and kill. Pictures of this kind have been found on the walls of caves in France and Spain. No one knows exactly why they were painted there. 1 About 5,000 years ago, the Egyptians and other people in the Near East began to use pictures as a kind of writing. 2 And also they represented the sounds of their language. The signs these people used became a kind of alphabet (字母表).
3 When an important person died, scenes and stories from his life were painted and carved on the walls of the place where he was buried. Some of these pictures are like modern comic strip stories. 4 But, for the Egyptians, pictures still had magic power. So they did not try to make their way of writing simple. The ordinary people could not understand it.
A.The old have difficulty understanding some of them.
B.So it is said that Egypt is the home of the comic strip.
C.They drew simple pictures or signs to represent things and ideas.
D.Perhaps the painters thought that their pictures would help them to catch these animals.
E.The Egyptians used to record information and to tell stories by putting writing and pictures together.

Passage 6
(24-25九年级上·辽宁沈阳·沈北新区期末)Shi Xiangzi was a music master, and he was very good at playing the guqin (古琴). One of his students was Confucius.
When Confucius began his first lesson, he kept playing the same piece of music for many days. Shi Xiangzi wanted to know why.
One day, Shi Xiangzi told Confucius, “You play this piece well. 1 ” Confucius said, “Thank you, but I have to master its technique (技巧).”
After some days, Confucius could play with the technique. His teacher said, “You can start to learn new pieces.” “Let me practice more. I want to know its conception (构思)” he said.
2 Shi Xiangzi listened to his playing and enjoyed it a lot. He asked, “Now that you’ve learned its conception, why don’t you learn the next piece?” “But I still don’t know who composed (创作) ,” Confucius answered.

Passage 7
(24-25九年级上·辽宁沈阳·铁西区期末)We usually think fish can’t talk. 1 In fact, scientists believe that all sea animals—at least 250,000 kinds—can “speak”!
2 There are now thousands of recorders in the ocean. They help scientists match sounds with sea life.
A healthy coral reef (珊瑚礁) is one of the noisiest places in the ocean. Scientists can tell if it’s healthy by listening to it. A healthy coral reef should be full of clicks made by shrimps (小虾) . When some coral reefs died in 2015 and 2016, they became quiet. 3
By listening to the ocean, scientists start to understand sea animals’ languages.
Strong clownfish make short “chirp (啁啾声)” sounds when going after small clownfish. 4 Mother dolphins can use a special voice to talk to their babies. They are saying “I’m here” to comfort the baby dolphins.
A.But there are a lot of sounds under the ocean.
B.They do this to show they are more powerful.
C.This is because they don’t have their own language.
D.In the past years, scientists used sound recorders to hear fish’s “voices”.
E.After people set up the protected areas, scientists heard the animals come back.

(2024·辽宁沈阳·一模)阅读短文, 从方框内所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项, 其中有一个多余的选项。
No one can deal with all the problems on his own. We all have to ask for favors (寻求帮助) sometimes. But it can be a difficult thing to do, even when you ask a good friend. So how can you ask for a favor and be sure to get a positive response (正面回应)? Here are some suggestions.
Be a nice person. When you ask someone for a favor, you’re really asking the person to go out of his or her way to help you. Show the person that you understand he or she is doing something especially nice for you. If people think you’re friendly, they’re more likely (可能的) to want to help. 1 And, of course, a smile goes a long way.
2 How do people respond to requests (请求) like this one, “Hey, lend me your car!”? They probably refuse. How can you avoid this problem? Be especially careful with how you show your request. For example, say, “Mike, would you mind doing me a favor?” Mike will probably respond like this, “Maybe. What do you need?” 3 People are more likely to agree to help you when they know the whole story.
Show your respect (尊重). If someone agrees to do you a favor, allow the person to choose when he or she helps you. Be respectful of the other person’s time, and try not ask for too much. 4 Don’t make a habit of asking for favors, and always make sure you’re ready to do someone a favor in return.
A.Now you have his attention and can explain the situation.
B.Choose your words carefully.
C.If someone refuses your request, you should accept the answer politely.
D.Thank them sincerely (真诚地) when they help you.
E.Try your best to help the one who did you a favor once in your way.

The moon is at its brightest on the 15th day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar (阴历). On this day, people celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival. It has been enjoying great popularity all over the country.

I noticed that a community school was offering Chinese evening classes. Without much thought, I signed up (报名) for a Chinese class.

After each lesson, I felt it too difficult to continue. Luckily, after a few months, I got used to this. Between classes, I would try to review what I had learned until I understood it. Gradually (逐渐地), I began to realize that the more work I put into Chinese study, the more interesting I found it.
To make further progress, I planned to find a Chinese student to help me with my Chinese. Soon I met my new Chinese friend, Li Hua. He helped me practice my spoken Chinese and go over everything I had learned in class. Finally, I made it.

In Japan’s big cities, there are small restaurants that serve coffee, called cafés. First there were pet cafés, and then cat cafés. The latest trend is a café that has pigs.
“It was wonderful, very relaxing and enjoyable,” said Brad Loomis, an engineer from the US. He was talking about his recent visit to Tokyo’s Mipig Café with his daughter.
The animals are known as “micro pigs”. They are not bigger than a small dog, even when they are fully grown. These small pigs move around the room, looking for a comfortable place. They are surprisingly quiet, making little snorts (哼哼声) now and then. And they are very clean and do not smell bad. These little things don’t like to be alone. So, this makes them good company for people.
“Each pig is special. Each one has his or her own personality. You may notice one may be strong-headed and another may be gentle,” said Shiho Kitagawa, a manager at Mipig Café.
Experts say interacting (沟通) with animals can increase people’s happiness.
1.Which Café did Brad Loomis visit with his daughter?
2.What are the pigs called?
3.Why do people like to go to Cafés with pet animals?

Every day, Mr. Zhao would get up early and spend hours in his workshop. He would choose pieces of wood carefully, measure (测量) them one by one and start designing. He required that every piece of furniture he made should be perfect.
Over the years, Mr. Zhao has faced many challenges. Sometimes, the wood would crack (破裂), or pieces of wood couldn’t match each other. He always took great pains to fix the problem, even though it meant starting again. His patience and attention to the details made his work better and better.
One day, Mr. Zhao was asked to make a special table for a museum. It had to be perfect and be finished in a period of ten days. He worked on it all day and all night, checking every detail to make sure everything was right. When the table was on show in the museum, it was highly admired. People came from far to enjoy this wonderful table.

I joined a band (乐队) as a drummer in my middle school. I thought it would be fun playing the drum and meeting new friends. At first it was easy, but a month later, it got difficult. I was the only one who couldn’t keep pace (节奏) with the other players.
Our teacher, Angie, singled me out to keep practicing while everyone else got to relax. I felt ashamed (羞愧的) as my teammates watched me fail so many times. Finally I got so tired of practicing that I didn’t care about doing it right.
“Are you giving up on me, Steve?” Angie asked.
“Yes, I am,” I shouted. Angie sent me inside the music room where I cried out. Then she came in and said. “Don’t be sad. I believe you can make it!” She told me never to give up. She left me alone and I realized Angie was right—by giving up, I was also giving up on the team and myself.
With her comfort, I decided to go on practicing. However, I still couldn’t play well. Knowing my difficulties, my teammates gave me a hand. They spent three more hours practicing with me every week. Thanks to their support and help, I began to keep pace with them. Later, we performed wonderfully in an important show.
In the whole process, I was taught that although we each had our own job to do in a show, it would take all of us working together to make the show great. I felt accepted and made great progress. I love everyone in the band. I can’t imagine what my school life would be like without them.
2.What did Steve think of playing the drum one month after he joined the band?
3.Why did Steve want to give up playing the drum?
4.How did Steve make great progress in playing the drum?
5.What do you think is the most important when we work as a team? Why? (at least 30 words)

Passage 1
(23-24九年级上·辽宁沈阳·铁西区期末)
Sometimes when the rain falls hard and fast on you, it might hurt a little. But what happens when it hits a mosquito (蚊子)? A 2012 study says when a raindrop falls on a mosquito, it’s like when a bus hits a person. Besides, the little insect is hit by a raindrop about once every 20 seconds. 1
A mosquito is as big as a raindrop, but it is much lighter — 0.002g only. 2 Because the mosquito is so light, when it is hit by a raindrop, it won’t experience a force (力量) that is strong enough to kill it.
The study also found that when a mosquito is hit by a raindrop, the insect is pushed by the raindrop and falls together with it. 3 Why? Because it is covered with hairs which keep off water. After dropping about 6 cm, it will roll (翻滚) off the raindrop and fly away.
4 If the mosquito flies too low when it is hit by the raindrop, it won’t have time to fly off. Then it will hit the ground and meet its death.
A.A mosquito will die when it rains.
B.This saves its life in raindrop attacks.
C.But the mosquito doesn’t get wet easily.
D.However, this trick isn’t always successful.
E.So why don’t we see many dead mosquitoes after it rains?
【答案】1.E 2.B 3.C 4.D
【导语】本文介绍了雨滴对蚊子的影响。
1.根据上文“A 2012 study says when a raindrop falls on a mosquito, it’s like when a bus hits a person. Besides, the little insect is hit by a raindrop about once every 20 seconds.”可知,雨滴落在蚊子身上就像公共汽车撞到人一样,而且蚊子大约每20秒就会被雨滴击中一次。选项E“那么,为什么下雨后我们看不到很多死蚊子呢?”符合语境。故选E。
2.根据下文“Because the mosquito is so light, when it is hit by a raindrop, it won’t experience a force (力量) that is strong enough to kill it.”可知,解释了雨滴击中蚊子却不会致死的原因是蚊子很轻。选项B“这在雨滴攻击中挽救了它的生命。”符合语境。故选B。
3.根据下文“Why? Because it is covered with hairs which keep off water.”可知,解释了蚊子不容易被弄湿的原因是它覆盖着可以防水的毛发。选项C“但是蚊子不容易被弄湿。”符合语境。故选C。
4.根据下文“If the mosquito flies too low when it is hit by the raindrop, it won’t have time to fly off. Then it will hit the ground and meet its death.”可知,蚊子被雨滴击中时飞得太低还是会迎接死亡。选项D“然而,这个技巧并不总是成功的。”符合语境。故选D。

OCTOPUSES are famous for their round bodies, big eyes and eight arms. 1 But one thing about them is the same: They are good at disguising (伪装) themselves. Octopuses can change their appearance in less than a second!
An octopus can do this in three ways. One is by using color. An octopus’s skin (皮肤) has special cells (细胞). These cells are full of yellow, brown and red pigments (色素). When an octopus moves its muscles (肌肉) in a certain way, the cells become large. These cells produce colorful spots (斑点) and other patterns (图案) on the octopus’s skin. 2 Under blue light, for example, an octopus’s skin will look blue. With these cells, an octopus can produce many different skin colors and patterns.
An octopus can also change the texture (结构) of its skin. When the octopus moves its muscles, its skin can go from smooth to spiky (有尖刺的). It might then look like a plant. 3 Some octopuses, for example, roll their bodies into balls so they look like rocks. One type of octopus can change its shape to look like other sea animals-especially dangerous ones, such as sea snakes.
Why are octopuses so good at changing their looks? They have to be. 4 Because they have no bones in their bodies, octopuses are like large pieces of meat. Many other sea animals want to eat them. To hide from these animals, octopuses have developed this amazing ability.
A.The cells can also reflect (反射) light.
B.The ocean is not a safe place for them.
C.What should we do to protect octopuses?
D.There are many different kinds of octopuses.
E.Another way an octopus uses is to change its shape.
【答案】1.D 2.A 3.E 4.B
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了章鱼如何伪装自己来躲避敌人。
1.根据下文“But one thing about them is the same: They are good at disguising themselves.”可知,此处是指章鱼种类众多,但善于伪装这一点是相同的;选项D“有许多不同种类的章鱼。”符合语境。故选D。
2.根据上文“These cells produce colorful spots and other patterns on the octopus’s skin.”和下文“Under blue light, for example, an octopus’s skin will look blue.”可知,在蓝光下,章鱼的皮肤看起来是蓝色的,说明章鱼的细胞能反射光;选项A“这种细胞还可以反射光。”符合语境。故选A。
3.根据下文“Some octopuses, for example, roll their bodies into balls so they look like rocks. One type of octopus can change its shape to look like other sea animals-especially dangerous ones, such as sea snakes.”可知,章鱼可以变形状,让自己像石块,像海蛇等;选项E“章鱼的另一种方法是改变形状。”符合语境。故选E。
4.根据上文“Why are octopuses so good at changing their looks? They have to be.”可知,此处是指因为章鱼的生存环境不安全,章鱼必须有擅长改变自己外貌的能力,才能生存下来;选项B“海洋对它们来说不是安全的地方。”符合语境。故选B。
Passage 4
(23-24九年级上·辽宁沈阳·和平区期末)People have painted pictures for at least 30,000 years.
The earliest pictures were painted by people who hunted animals. They used to paint pictures of the animals they wanted to catch and kill.

The signs these people used became a kind of alphabet (字母表).
3 When an important person died, scenes and stories from his life were painted and carved on the walls of the place where he was buried. Some of these pictures are like modern comic strip stories. 4 But, for the Egyptians, pictures still had magic power. So they did not try to make their way of writing simple. The ordinary people could not understand it.
A.The old have difficulty understanding some of them.
B.So it is said that Egypt is the home of the comic strip.

No one can deal with all the problems on his own. We all have to ask for favors (寻求帮助) sometimes. But it can be a difficult thing to do, even when you ask a good friend. So how can you ask for a favor and be sure to get a positive response (正面回应)? Here are some suggestions.
Be a nice person. When you ask someone for a favor, you’re really asking the person to go out of his or her way to help you.

For example, say, “Mike, would you mind doing me a favor?” Mike will probably respond like this, “Maybe. What do you need?” 3 People are more likely to agree to help you when they know the whole story.
Show your respect (尊重). If someone agrees to do you a favor, allow the person to choose when he or she helps you. Be respectful of the other person’s time, and try not ask for too much. 4 Don’t make a habit of asking for favors, and always make sure you’re ready to do someone a favor in return.

The moon is at its brightest on the 15th day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar (阴历). On this day, people celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival. It has been enjoying great popularity all over the country.
In ancient China, that day was a harvest (收获) festival because crops (庄稼) were harvested during that period. It was a time for relaxation and celebration.
Just like Thanksgiving in Western countries, families also try to get together for the Mid-Autumn Festival in China. Usually, no matter how far away or how busy they are, people will try to return home for the celebration.
The Mid-Autumn has its own special food just as other traditional Chinese holidays. People eat moon cakes with fillings such as sugar and eggs. The round shape of the cake makes it look like the full moon. The full moon and moon cakes stand for family reunion (团聚).

Our teacher, Angie, singled me out to keep practicing while everyone else got to relax. I felt ashamed (羞愧的) as my teammates watched me fail so many times. Finally I got so tired of practicing that I didn’t care about doing it right.
“Are you giving up on me, Steve?” Angie asked.
“Yes, I am,” I shouted. Angie sent me inside the music room where I cried out. Then she came in and said. “Don’t be sad. I believe you can make it!” She told me never to give up. She left me alone and I realized Angie was right—by giving up, I was also giving up on the team and myself.
With her comfort, I decided to go on practicing. However, I still couldn’t play well. Knowing my difficulties, my teammates gave me a hand. They spent three more hours practicing with me every week. Thanks to their support and help, I began to keep pace with them. Later, we performed wonderfully in an important show.
In the whole process, I was taught that although we each had our own job to do in a show, it would take all of us working together to make the show great. I felt accepted and made great progress. I love everyone in the band. I can’t imagine what my school life would be like without them.
