“Keep your eyes on your paper” is one of the rules that Mrs. Archer has taught us. It’s a simple rule, 1 it’s not a rule everybody chooses to follow.
This morning, I felt 2 was watching my paper too closely during an English exam. I turned my head quickly and saw James, who sat 3 me. My eyes caught his and he said in a low voice, “Let me see your 4 !”
I gave him a 5 , not sure if he was joking, and returned to my test. This time I moved a little more 6 towards my paper. “I can’t see!” James said.

3、 阅读理解(共12小题;每题2分,满分24分)
A
From Linda
I’m a Grade 9 student. I’m not good at English, especially speaking and grammar. I’m too shy to talk in class and always forget new words. Can anyone share good ways to improve English? Thanks!
From Tom
I think listening and speaking are key! I practice by watching English movies and singing English songs every day. It helps me with pronunciation and feeling more confident. Also, I try to talk to my classmates in English during breaks. Don’t be afraid of mistakes!
From Sally
Grammar and vocabulary are important. I make flashcards to remember new words and take notes in class. I also read English books every night. If I don’t understand something, I ask my teacher or classmates for help right away.
From David
I use apps to learn English. They help me practice listening, reading, and even speaking. I set a goal to learn 10 new words each day. Besides, I joined an English club to chat with others. It’s fun and useful!
( ) 1.What is Linda’s main problem with English?
A.She doesn’t have time to study. B.She can’t remember grammar rules.
C.She is poor at speaking and feels shy. D.She does not like her English teacher.
( ) 2.Who suggests using apps and joining a club to learn English?

B
①I teach English in Russia. For some reason I really don’t like that class “Talk about your family”. The students say, “There are five people in my family. My mother, my father...” It sounds like that all families are the same.
②Our families are one and only. All have their stories, jokes, nicknames and so on. They’re the place where our personalities were made.
③We know our families so well that we even think they’re boring. Not a bit of it. Families are the most special things. If you dig (挖) enough into your own, you will get everything you want for a great book.
④My mother started making our family tree years ago, not expecting to get far. However, reading the old records (记录) and visiting libraries, she got back 300 years. She found some old stories. What happened to the big family farm? Where did the family fortune (财富) go in the 1870s?
⑤I’m the traveler in my family, and I love travelling. I always think I got it from a great-grandfather. My two favorite family heirlooms (传家宝) are a photo of him on a horse and a postcard from China. If you look at your family, you open a window on the past.
⑥When my mother, still putting the family tree together, asked me for a few names from my Russian wife’s family, my wife got on the phone to check a name or two. But she was still talking an hour later. So you can see that start some people talking about their family stories and they might never stop.
⑦To go back to that English class, let’s look at some interesting ways to talk about families. English is rich in idioms (习语) to talk about family life. The black sheep of the family is someone who brings family trouble. If you’re true to your family, you can say “blood (血) is thicker than water”. “Who wears the trousers in your family?” means “Who’s the head of your family?”. And stories behind them are what I want to hear.
( ) 1.The writer’s mother read the old records and visited libraries to ________.
A.make their family tree B.find their family fortune
C.get the family heirlooms D.talk about the family
( ) 2.We can infer (推断) that _________ .
A.the writer doesn’t really like his teaching job in Russia
B.every family in Russia is the same with five people
C.some people might never stop when talking about family stories
D.one of the writer’s great-grandfathers liked travelling
( ) 3.Jerry’s mother decides almost everything in the family, so ________ .
A.she is the black sheep of the family B.her blood is thicker than water
C.she wears the trousers in the family D.she is the breadwinner of the family
( ) 4.If we put the passage into four parts, which one is the best?
A.①②/③/④⑤⑥/⑦ B.①/②③/④⑤/⑥⑦
C.①/②③/④⑤⑥/⑦ D.①②③/④⑤/⑥/⑦
C
Success does not belong to a select group of individuals(个人). Success belongs to those who are willing to go after it and try their best to do what they have to do. Here are some useful practical ways for you if you want to be a success.
Desire. Desire is the strong wish to achieve a goal. Without desire you have nothing. Before you can run with desire, your goal must be plain, clear, and it must also be exciting.
Show up. Seventy percent of success in life is showing up. You can't have a best seller, if you have never written a book. You can't get your dream job, if you' re afraid to turn in an application. Showing up doesn't guarantee(保证) success, but if you don't show up, you won't succeed.
Fail. Unless you' re willing to have a try, fail unhappily, and have another try, success won't happen.To have success you have to do things the right way, but often the only way to do something right is to first fail at it. As Thomas J. Watson said, a simple formula(公式) for success is to double your rate of failure(失败). So welcome failure, become a student of failure, learn from failure, and soon you will succeed.
Work Harder. Everyone runs, but everyone is not willing to run for an hour every day. Success is not about doing what the common person can't do. It's about doing what the common person is unwilling to do.And on a deeper level, it's about creating habits that the common person is unwilling to create. It's the habit of doing things with excellence that causes success.
Enjoy the Journey. Success is a journey, not a destination(终点). Success is not a certain car or a certain house or a certain happy marriage. Success is the enjoyment of the journey. You have to enjoy the journey.
Someone once said, “Unless you change how you are, you will always have what you' ve got.” You have to change... you will change, you will succeed.
( ) 1. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in achieving success?
A. Working hard. B. Good education.
C. Strong desire. D. Enjoying failure.
( ) 2. What does the writer really mean by saying“Everyone runs, but everyone is not willing to run for an hour every day.”?
A. It's not easy for people to develop their health.
B. You are sure to meet with some difficulty in your life.
C. Keeping working harder is necessary when you go after success.
D. Most people don't want to spend too much time running.
( ) 3. What does the writer mostly want to tell us in the fourth paragraph?
A. Failure is the mother of success. B. Many hands make light work.
C. Every dog has its day. D. Actions speak louder than words.
( ) 4. Which of the following is TRUE about success according to the passage?
A. If you want to succeed, you should have special talents.
B. If you want to succeed, you'd better not show up.
C. Success is about doing what the common person can't do.
D. Success means the enjoyment of your gain or loss on the journey.
( ) 5. The best title of the passage might be .

Learning Chinese may seem difficult to foreigners outside China. 1 , Daisy Raffan, an 18-year-old girl in Britain, hopes to bring the language to the young people.
Daisy has been learning Putonghua since the age of five. Two years ago, after she decided to pass on 2 she had learned, she came up with the idea for the website, kidschineseclub.com.
She said, “People are afraid 3 (learn) Putonghua. One of the main 4 (reason) is that they think it’s a(n) 5 (possible) language to learn, but I have had fun 6 (do) it. And I hope what I have done is easy and fun.”
Daisy’s website has 7 (win) the support of several important persons—the teenager says she has received a letter praising her work from Gordon Brown, who is the British Prime Minister. She said, “I 8 (write) to him and told him what I was doing and got a letter 9 him. He said that what I was doing was a really good idea. I thought it was amazing. I was 10 (excite) that someone so important was supporting what we were doing.”

七、阅读表达。(共4小题;满分10分)
Studying in groups is helpful to our study. It becomes popular in class and has many good sides. For example, we can not only save time but also encourage each other when we study in groups.
I still remember when I was in Grade 8, my physics was very poor. I had a really hard time with it. Once in class, the teacher asked us to discuss questions with each other. Because I was very shy, I could not do that. My physics teacher encouraged me to face others and talk with someone else. Then I studied with some classmates together. When I did not understand any questions, they could give me some suggestions and I could quickly find out the ways to deal with the problems. After that I felt very relaxed and asked my classmates a lot of questions about physics. Finally, I finished my homework by myself for the first time. How excited I was!
Because of studying in groups, I am not worried about physics learning any more. With my classmates’ help, I get more confidence (自信). It also gives me more chances to improve myself in many ways. So let’s study more in groups.
1.How was the writer’s physics when he was in Grade 8?
2.Could the writer discuss questions with others at first?
3.What did the writer’s physics teacher encourage him to do in class?
4.Do you like studying in groups? Why or why not?
