Surrounded by miles of winding stonewalls, the house and barn provided endless hours of fun for a city kid like me. I was used to parlors (客厅) neat as a pin that seemed to whisper (低声说), “Not to be touched!” I can still remember one afternoon when I was eight years old. Since my first visit to the farm, I’d wanted more than anything to be allowed to climb the stonewalls surrounding the property. My parents would never ____34____. The walls were old; some stones were missing, others loose and crumbling. Still, my desire to climb across those walls grew so strong. One spring afternoon, I ____35____ up all my courage and entered the living room, where the adults had gathered after dinner. “I, uh, I want to climb the stonewalls,” I said hesitantly (犹豫地). Everyone looked up. “Can I climb the stonewalls?” ____36____, a chorus (齐声) went up from the women in the room. “Heavens, no!” they cried. “You’ll hurt yourself!” I wasn’t too ____37____; the reply was just as I’d expected. But before I could leave the room, I was stopped by my grandfather’s voice. “Hold on just a minute,” I heard him say, “Let the boy climb the stonewalls. He has to learn to do things for himself.” “Scoot (疾走),” he said to me with a wink (眨眼), “and come and see me when you get back.” For the next two and a half hours I ____38____ those old walls and had the time of my life. Later I met with my grandfather to tell him about my ____39____. I’ll never forget what he said. “Fred,” he said, smiling, “you made this day a special day just by being yourself. Always remember, there’s only one person in this whole world like you, and I like you exactly as you are.” Many years have passed since then, and today I host the television program Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood seen by millions of children throughout America. There have been changes over the years, but one thing remains the same: my ____40____ to children at the end of almost every visit, “There’s only one person in this whole world like you, and people can like you exactly as you are.” 33.

B 34. D 35. A 36. B 37. D 38. A 39. C 40. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了作者童年获得爷爷鼓励坚持做自己的经历，长大后他也把这个道理传递给更多孩子。 【33题详解】 句意：小时候，我最喜欢在宾夕法尼亚西部爷爷的农场度过周日下午。 根据“I can still remember one afternoon”可知，后文回忆爬墙经历以下午为时间背景，结合全文语境，作者习惯周日下午在农场玩耍，应用afternoons。mornings“早上”、evenings“晚上”和nights“晚上”逻辑不符。 34题详解】 句意：我的父母永远不会同意。 根据后文大人说“Heavens, no!”和“You’ll hurt yourself!”可知，父母担心危险，不会同意他爬石墙，应用agree。discuss“讨论”、care“在意”、decide“决定”不符合句意。 【35题详解】 句意：一个春天的下午，我鼓起全部勇气走进客厅，大人们吃过晚饭都聚在那里。 此处为“get up...courage”，固定搭配，表示“鼓起勇气”，应用got。hurried“匆忙”、made“制作”、gave“给”搭配不当。 【36题详解】 句意：立刻，房间里的女人们齐声反对。 根据上下文，作者刚提出请求，大家马上就出声阻止，应用Immediately“立刻”。Happily“开心地”、Slowly“慢慢地”、Sadly“难过地”不符合语境。 【37题详解】 句意：我并没有太失望。 根据“the reply was just as I’d expected”可知，结果和预料一样，所以不感到失望，应用disappointed。afraid“害怕的”、worried“担心的”和pleased“高兴的”逻辑不通。 【38题详解】 句意：在接下来的两个半小时里，我爬了那些古老的石墙，度过了我一生中最愉快的时光。 前文一直提到“climb the stonewalls”，此处对应前文，应用climbed。watched“观看”、crossed“穿过”和jumped“跳”不符合动作描述，故排除。 39题详解】 句意：后来我去找爷爷，告诉他我的冒险经历。 根据前文可知，爬石墙对小男孩来说是一次冒险，应用adventure。journey“旅行”、parade“游行”和invention“发明”不符合文意。 【40题详解】 句意：这些年来发生了变化，但有一件事是不变的：我在几乎每次节目结束时给孩子们的信息。 根据“There’s only one person in this whole world like you, and people can like you exactly as you are.”可知，后文是一句鼓励的话，属于传递的信息、寄语，应用message。warning“警告”、reply“回复”和order“命令”，这几个用词的情感与内容均不符。 四、阅读理解(共26分，每小题2分) A 信息匹配。下面的材料分别介绍了不同的活动，请根据所描述的Jack, Sally和Bill三人的各自特点和需求，选择适合的活动。并将对应的序号ABCD填写在相应位置上。 A.

It’s next to a landfill where, every day, about 3 million pounds of rubbish are left. Cateura doesn’t have much to offer its local people, and there’s very little opportunity for the children here. Favio Chavez wanted to change that. “I went to work in Cateura as an environmental engineer,” Chavez says. “I saw that there were a lot of children, and I had the idea to teach them music in my free time.” He began giving lessons with donated (捐赠的) instruments. The classes became so popular that the instruments quickly ran out. So, he asked Cola to use the neighbourhood’s only thing, rubbish, to create new ones. Cola found the broken shell of a violin in the landfill and decided to restore (修复) it. Then he decided to make other instruments made from recycled materials. Violins were made from cans, wooden spoons and forks. Cellos were made from large oil drums. Trumpets were made from bottle tops and old pipes. Everything came from the landfill. And so, the Recycled Orchestra was born. The orchestra’s first concert was held for the proud parents of its members. But word spread about these talented musicians. Soon, they performed around Paraguay, and later, they travelled to Brazil for a concert. Before long, their music was being played around the world. “The orchestra has changed some members’ lives,” says violinist Ada Rios. “When I play the violin I feel like I am somewhere beautiful else.” Rio s now teaches other children how to play, and she hopes to be a violin teacher. Chavez doesn’t think that music is the answer to all the problems facing Cateura’s young people. But he knows that the music lets children experience something special. It’s motivating (激励) them to imagine life beyond Cateura. “The kids playing in the Recycled Orchestra are creating something out of nothing,” Chavez says. There’s a saying that “One person’s rubbish is another’s treasure”, and the Recycled Orchestra proves that it’s true. 44. Why did Chavez ask Cola to create new instruments? A. Because the children broke the old ones. B. Because the old ones ran out too quickly. C. Because the new ones were much more popular. D. Because the children wanted to play the new ones. 45. Who did the orchestra first perform for? A. Parents of the orchestra’s members. B. Teacher Chavez. C. People around Paraguay. D. Talented musicians in Brazil. 46. How did the Recycled Orchestra help the children in Cateura? A. They moved from their old town. B. They got support from musicians. C. They restored the old instruments. D. They created the new from nothing. 【答案】44. B 45. A 46. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了Favio Chavez为改变环境，利用垃圾制造的乐器来演奏音乐的乐队的故事。 【44题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“He began giving lessons with donated (捐赠的) instruments. The classes became so popular that the instruments quickly ran out.”可知，课程很受欢迎，乐器很快就用完了。故选B。 【45题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“The orchestra’s first concert was held for the proud parents of its members.”可知，乐团的第一场音乐会是为其成员父母演出的。故选A。 【46题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The kids playing in the Recycled Orchestra are creating something out of nothing”可知，再生乐团的孩子们正在从无到有地创造一些东西，即他们从无到有创造了新东西。故选D。 C At one point or another, you’ve probably heard someone speak with confidence on a topic that they hardly know anything about. Psychologists have studied this topic, and they’ve come up with an explanation known as the Dunning-Kruger Effect. In 1999, Dunning and Kruger from Cornell University did a set of studies testing people’s abilities in certain areas, including grammar, humor, and logic. The people were also asked to grade their own abilities in each area. They found that people who scored very low on the tests were more likely to overestimate (高估) their abilities. In other words, those who don’t know much think they know more than they actually do. In an interview, Dunning explains that “the knowledge and intelligence required to be good at a task are often the same needed to recognize that one is not good at that task.” For example, it might be easy for a top dancer to tell that A dances a lot better than B, but if you know little about dancing, A and B probably look equally good in your eyes. Another reason that may explain this effect is that people wish to be better than others in as many areas as they can, and when someone really wants something to be true, it can be hard for them to admit that it isn’t. The opposite of this effect also happens when a skilled person feels as if they are faking (假装) their skills though they know exactly what they are doing. It’s called the Impostor Syndrome (假冒者综合征). You may think of the Dunning-Kruger Effect as a problem that other people have, but it may happen to you, too. Everyone has areas where they lack abilities—and the Dunning-Kruger Effect means they may be especially bad at identifying those areas. That’s why it’s important to stay humble and keep learning throughout your life. Keep digging for information even when you think you’ve found answers. Remember to check your ideas with other people. Receiving criticism can hurt, but if you’re willing to listen, it can help you grow. 47. Which of the following shows the Dunning-Kruger Effect? A. The math teacher says the math test is not difficult at all. B. The top student in your grade says she isn’t as good as you think she is. C. You work hard but your parents always think all other kids do better than you. D. You know little about acting but believe you can perform better than the actors. 48. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A. What the Dunning-Kruger Effect is. B. Why the Dunning-Kruger Effect happens. C. How the Dunning-Kruger Effect affects people. D. How the Dunning-Kruger Effect was discovered. 49. What is the writing purpose of this passage? A. To introduce the Dunning-Kruger Effect and how it is bad for people. B. To introduce the Dunning-Kruger Effect and why it is important for people. C. To introduce the Dunning-Kruger Effect and encourage life-long learning. D. To introduce the Dunning-Kruger Effect and build up the readers’ confidence. 【答案】47. D 48. B 49. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了邓宁-克鲁格效应的定义、产生原因，说明该效应对每个人都可能发生，最后呼吁人们保持谦逊、坚持终身学习。 【47题详解】 根据第二段第四句“In other words, those who don’t know much think they know more than they actually do.”可知，知之甚少的人往往认为自己知道的比实际更多，这就是邓宁-克鲁格效应。对应选项D“你对表演知之甚少，却相信自己能比演员演得更好。” 【48题详解】 根据第三段“Dunning explains that…Another reason that may explain this effect is that…”可知，第三段从两个角度介绍了邓宁-克鲁格效应产生的原因。 【49题详解】 根据最后一段“That’s why it’s important to stay humble and keep learning throughout your life.”结合全文内容可知，本文先介绍了邓宁-克鲁格效应的相关信息，最终目的是鼓励人们终身学习。 D “Oh, my God! Did I really just send that text?” Most people have said something that they wish they could take back. And if they had paused (暂停) to think about it first, they probably would have acted differently. Pausing doesn’t pay off just when you speak. Scientific studies have shown that making a habit of pausing before you do something can actually have a big effect on how your life turns out. In making decisions we depend on two areas of the brain. One area creates and processes emotions (情感); the other governs logical (逻辑的) thoughts. The type of decision, how we feel about it, and how prepared we are to deal with it help decide which brain area has the most influence. But our age also plays an important role. Thinking through the results of one’s actions is actually harder for teens because the area controlling logical thoughts is not fully developed until around age 25. This is why teens often feel a strong emotional drive to act impulsively—it’s how their brains are structured! Though this tendency (倾向) to act without considering the results can lead to problematic situations, impulsivity during the developmental years evolves (进化) because it makes teens more open to new experiences and ideas. This openness helps teens to become independent adults. The key to making impulsivity work for you instead of against you is to train your brain by practising pausing. This doesn’t mean you stop taking risks or being open to new experiences. But you won’t know if the risk is worth it until you think it through. Deciding to take a risk based on logic shows self-control, not impulsivity. What are different ways to pause? You might take a deep breath, count to 10, or ask “Is this worth it?” Different strategies (策略) work for different people. Whatever works for you, keep doing it! By practising pausing, you can actually change your brain. This means that over time, pausing, instead of immediately reacting, becomes your “natural” response (反应). And with this change, people are on their way to enjoying the life rewards (回报) that come with high levels of self- control—even if they weren’t natural-born pausers! 50. What challenges teenagers? A. Giving a natural response. B. Making logical decisions. C. Acting before in-depth thinking. D. Choosing brain-training strategies. 51. The word impulsively in Paragraph 3 probably means ______. A. carefully showing self-control B. unwillingly planning without thinking C. calmly weighing the differences D. suddenly acting without considering the effects 52. What can we learn from the passage? A. Scientific studies have shown that pausing works well when you speak. B. An impulsive person tends to stop considering and accepting new ideas. C. Training the brain by practising pausing can reduce the influence of emotional drive. D. By practising pausing, people can become natural-born pausers with good self-control. 53. What is the best title for the passage? A. Push the Pause Button B. Impulsivity Works Well C. Discover the Brain Function D. Crying Over the Spilt Milk 【答案】50. B 51. D 52. C 53. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了养成做事前暂停思考的习惯对人生的积极影响，解释了青少年更易冲动行事的生理原因，同时说明了练习暂停可以训练大脑，帮助人们提升自控力，收获生活的回报。 【50题详解】 根据文章第三段第二句“Thinking through the results of one’s actions is actually harder for teens because the area controlling logical thoughts is not fully developed until around age 25.”可知，对青少年而言，想清楚自身行为的后果实际上更为困难，因为控制逻辑思维的脑区直到25岁左右才会发育完全，故控制逻辑思维的脑区未发育完全，让做出符合逻辑的决定成为青少年需要面对的挑战。 【51题详解】 根据前文提到青少年受情绪驱动、逻辑思维尚未发育完全，结合第三段第四句“act without considering the results can lead to problematic situations”可知，impulsively指不考虑影响就贸然行动，对应D选项的释义。 【52题详解】 根据第四段第一句“The key to making impulsivity work for you instead of against you is to train your brain by practising pausing.”可知，通过练习暂停来训练大脑可以减少情感驱动的影响。 【53题详解】 根据全文多次强调“pausing”、“pause before you do something”可知，全文围绕“做事前先暂停思考”这一核心展开，介绍了它的作用、训练方法和好处，核心主题是养成主动暂停思考的习惯，“Push the Pause Button（按下暂停键）”符合核心主旨。 五、阅读表达。 阅读下面短文，并根据短文内容回答问题。 Many students have problems with vocabulary when preparing for some tests. Last week, TEENS offered advice on how to memorize new words. If you’re now familiar with those methods, why not try moving on to the next stage by using the following tips to build up your English vocabulary. Repeated encounters (反复遇见) The usual way of “memorizing” new material is through repeating it while it’s still in your mind. However, simply repeating a word seems to have little long-term effect. But one kind of repetition is effective: repetition of encounters with a word. Words stand a good chance of being remembered if they’ve been met at least seven times in your reading, at intervals (相隔一段时间). So, read English magazines, newspapers, and websites regularly. Spacing and review It’s better to distribute (分配) memory work over a period of time rather than do it in a single session (一段时间). This is known as the “principle of distributed practice”, where new vocabulary introduced in one lesson is reviewed in the next, and then in later lessons. Use it or lose it By putting new words to use in interesting ways you can add them to your long-term memory. In a study of vocabulary learning, students are asked to make up their own sentences with new words and read them aloud. The result showed that they remembered them better than those who learned the words separately and silently. Besides, the researchers also asked the students to silently imagine a picture in their minds to go with a new word, and it turned out to be very effective. So it might help if learners link words with a mental image. Mix it up Let’s face it—learning words can be really boring, but it doesn’t have to be. Thanks to the Internet, there are more interesting ways to get the job done. Try watching videos from English-speaking social media celebrities and copying the way they speak. You could even upload your own videos and try becoming a star yourself. 54. What kind of repetition is effective? ____________________________________________________ 55. When is it better to distribute memory work, over a period of time or in a single session? ____________________________________________________ 56. In the study of how to put new words to use in interesting ways, what were the students asked to do? ____________________________________________________ 57. Which tip do you like best? Why? (Please give at least 2 reasons) ____________________________________________________ 【答案】54. Repetition of encounters with a word. 55. Over a period of time. 56. They were asked to make up their own sentences with new words and read them aloud, and silently imagine a picture in their minds to go with a new word. 57. I like the tip “Repeated encounters” best. First, reading English magazines or newspapers regularly is easy to do in daily life. Second, meeting words many times can help me remember them for a long time. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要针对如何扩大英语词汇量、有效记忆新单词介绍了四个实用的技巧。 【54题详解】 根据Repeated encounters部分“But one kind of repetition is effective: repetition of encounters with a word.”可知，有效的重复是重复遇到一个单词。 【55题详解】 根据Spacing and review部分“It’s better to distribute (分配) memory work over a period of time rather than do it in a single session (一段时间).”可知，在一段时间内分配记忆任务会更好。 【56题详解】 根据Use it or lose it部分“In a study of vocabulary learning, students are asked to make up their own sentences with new words and read them aloud…Besides, the researchers also asked the students to silently imagine a picture in their minds to go with a new word…”可知，学生们被要求用新单词自己造句并大声朗读，以及在脑海中默想一幅与新单词相关的图。 【57题详解】 开放性题目，答案不唯一，但观点要基于文章事实，且注意至少陈述两点原因，言之有理即可。 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 北京三帆中学2025—2026学年度第二学期开学检测试卷 九年级英语 班级： ______分层班级： ______学号： ______姓名： ______成绩： ______ 注意事项 1.本试卷共8页，五大题，57小题，作答时长60分钟，满分60分。 2.在试卷和答题卡上，准确填写班级、姓名、学号。 3.试题答案一律填涂填写在答题卡上，在试卷上作答无效。 4.考试结束后请将考试资料一并交回。 一、假期短语考查。根据句意选择最佳短语。(共10分，每题0.5分) 1. —What do you think of the new novel? —It’s great!

Surrounded by miles of winding stonewalls, the house and barn provided endless hours of fun for a city kid like me. I was used to parlors (客厅) neat as a pin that seemed to whisper (低声说), “Not to be touched!” I can still remember one afternoon when I was eight years old. Since my first visit to the farm, I’d wanted more than anything to be allowed to climb the stonewalls surrounding the property. My parents would never ____34____. The walls were old; some stones were missing, others loose and crumbling. Still, my desire to climb across those walls grew so strong. One spring afternoon, I ____35____ up all my courage and entered the living room, where the adults had gathered after dinner. “I, uh, I want to climb the stonewalls,” I said hesitantly (犹豫地). Everyone looked up. “Can I climb the stonewalls?” ____36____, a chorus (齐声) went up from the women in the room. “Heavens, no!” they cried. “You’ll hurt yourself!” I wasn’t too ____37____; the reply was just as I’d expected. But before I could leave the room, I was stopped by my grandfather’s voice. “Hold on just a minute,” I heard him say, “Let the boy climb the stonewalls. He has to learn to do things for himself.” “Scoot (疾走),” he said to me with a wink (眨眼), “and come and see me when you get back.” For the next two and a half hours I ____38____ those old walls and had the time of my life. Later I met with my grandfather to tell him about my ____39____. I’ll never forget what he said. “Fred,” he said, smiling, “you made this day a special day just by being yourself. Always remember, there’s only one person in this whole world like you, and I like you exactly as you are.” Many years have passed since then, and today I host the television program Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood seen by millions of children throughout America.

It’s next to a landfill where, every day, about 3 million pounds of rubbish are left. Cateura doesn’t have much to offer its local people, and there’s very little opportunity for the children here. Favio Chavez wanted to change that. “I went to work in Cateura as an environmental engineer,” Chavez says. “I saw that there were a lot of children, and I had the idea to teach them music in my free time.” He began giving lessons with donated (捐赠的) instruments. The classes became so popular that the instruments quickly ran out. So, he asked Cola to use the neighbourhood’s only thing, rubbish, to create new ones. Cola found the broken shell of a violin in the landfill and decided to restore (修复) it. Then he decided to make other instruments made from recycled materials. Violins were made from cans, wooden spoons and forks. Cellos were made from large oil drums. Trumpets were made from bottle tops and old pipes. Everything came from the landfill. And so, the Recycled Orchestra was born. The orchestra’s first concert was held for the proud parents of its members. But word spread about these talented musicians. Soon, they performed around Paraguay, and later, they travelled to Brazil for a concert. Before long, their music was being played around the world. “The orchestra has changed some members’ lives,” says violinist Ada Rios. “When I play the violin I feel like I am somewhere beautiful else.” Rio s now teaches other children how to play, and she hopes to be a violin teacher. Chavez doesn’t think that music is the answer to all the problems facing Cateura’s young people. But he knows that the music lets children experience something special. It’s motivating (激励) them to imagine life beyond Cateura. “The kids playing in the Recycled Orchestra are creating something out of nothing” Chavez says. There’s a saying that “One person’s rubbish is another’s treasure”, and the Recycled Orchestra proves that it’s true. 44. Why did Chavez ask Cola to create new instruments? A. Because the children broke the old ones. B. Because the old ones ran out too quickly. C. Because the new ones were much more popular. D. Because the children wanted to play the new ones. 45. Who did the orchestra first perform for? A. Parents of the orchestra’s members. B. Teacher Chavez. C. People around Paraguay. D. Talented musicians in Brazil. 46. How did the Recycled Orchestra help the children in Cateura? A. They moved from their old town. B. They got support from musicians. C. They restored the old instruments. D. They created the new from nothing. C At one point or another, you’ve probably heard someone speak with confidence on a topic that they hardly know anything about. Psychologists have studied this topic, and they’ve come up with an explanation known as the Dunning-Kruger Effect. In 1999, Dunning and Kruger from Cornell University did a set of studies testing people’s abilities in certain areas, including grammar, humor, and logic. The people were also asked to grade their own abilities in each area. They found that people who scored very low on the tests were more likely to overestimate (高估) their abilities. In other words, those who don’t know much think they know more than they actually do. In an interview, Dunning explains that “the knowledge and intelligence required to be good at a task are often the same needed to recognize that one is not good at that task.” For example, it might be easy for a top dancer to tell that A dances a lot better than B, but if you know little about dancing, A and B probably look equally good in your eyes. Another reason that may explain this effect is that people wish to be better than others in as many areas as they can, and when someone really wants something to be true, it can be hard for them to admit that it isn’t. The opposite of this effect also happens when a skilled person feels as if they are faking (假装) their skills though they know exactly what they are doing. It’s called the Impostor Syndrome (假冒者综合征). You may think of the Dunning-Kruger Effect as a problem that other people have, but it may happen to you, too. Everyone has areas where they lack abilities—and the Dunning-Kruger Effect means they may be especially bad at identifying those areas. That’s why it’s important to stay humble and keep learning throughout your life. Keep digging for information even when you think you’ve found answers. Remember to check your ideas with other people. Receiving criticism can hurt, but if you’re willing to listen, it can help you grow. 47. Which of the following shows the Dunning-Kruger Effect? A. The math teacher says the math test is not difficult at all. B. The top student in your grade says she isn’t as good as you think she is. C. You work hard but your parents always think all other kids do better than you. D. You know little about acting but believe you can perform better than the actors. 48. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A. What the Dunning-Kruger Effect is. B. Why the Dunning-Kruger Effect happens. C. How the Dunning-Kruger Effect affects people. D. How the Dunning-Kruger Effect was discovered. 49. What is the writing purpose of this passage? A. To introduce the Dunning-Kruger Effect and how it is bad for people. B. To introduce the Dunning-Kruger Effect and why it is important for people. C. To introduce the Dunning-Kruger Effect and encourage life-long learning. D. To introduce the Dunning-Kruger Effect and build up the readers’ confidence. D “Oh, my God! Did I really just send that text?” Most people have said something that they wish they could take back.
