"This is much better than cleaning!"He walked across the field until he reached a river. For the first time in his life,the Mole saw a river.It was shining and dancing in the sun,full of life and little happy waves.It seemed to play with everything it touched.He was completely amazed.

Something bright and small seemed to shine from it.Then,out of the hole jumped a little brown face with whiskers(胡须).It was the Water Rat!! “Helo,Mole!”'said the Rat.“Hello,.Rat!”said the Mole. “Would you like to come over?”asked the Rat..“Oh,it's easy for you to sav,”said the Mole, feeling nervous,for the river was so new,wonderful but big to him. The Rat said nothing,but he picked up a long rope that was lying near the bank.With a quick,smooth movement,he pulled a little wooden boat out from some thick plants."That's how we cross,"he said cheerfully."Jump in-or,let me come across for you!"In a moment,the boat touched the grass where the Mole sat.Shaking with excitement but full of trust,he stepped carefully into the boat and began his very first joumney on the river,and a friendship that was to 九年级英语试题第3页（共8页） grow with every passing day. 一一Adapted from The Wind in the Willows 29.Why did the Mole suddenly rush out of his house?

C You might see headlines of"raising lobster"recently online,but the "lobster"is not the kind you'd find on the dining table.It's a new AI agent called OpenClaw.Using a red lobster as its symbol,it was. developed by Austrian programmer Peter Steinberger.In China,many people have set up this AI on their computers,which they jokingly call"raising lobster We've already had AI tools like ChatGPT and DeepSeek.They can advise us on what to do,but they can't reach into the real world to do it for us.Also,they only "talk"when asked.OpenClaw,on the other hand,"actually does things".For example,it can send emails and buy plane tickets for us. OpenClaw also has a long "memory".Over time.it learns what you like and follows your plans.You can wake up in the morning to a message about your top three tasks without even having to ask the AI first. This proactiveness(主动性)is made possible by something called a“heartbeat'”,according to Claire Vo,a US scientist.She explained that a heartbeat is a timer that goes off regularly With each"heartbeat",the AI checks what comes next. However,OpenClaw collects a lot of personal information from users.In February, researchers found that some important information from OpenClaw had been put online without telling the users.Hackers (could use this to control users'computers. The Chinese government has given its first-ever warnings about this kind of Al,telling people to be careful while using it. 33.What question does the first paragraph mainly answer? A.What is"raising lobster"? B.Who developed OpenClaw? C.Why is OpenClaw special? D.How does OpenClaw work? 34.How is OpenClaw different from other AI tools? A.It owns a real heart.

B.It gives out users'private information. C.Users have spent too much money on it. D.Setting it up on computers is very difficult. D Have you ever wondered why we say maidongxi instead of mainanbei,shangcesuo instead of xiacesuo,and yijianxiangzuo instead of yijianxiangyou?Many Chinese words have directions in them,and there is lots of history and culture hidden behind. East or West When going shopping,Chinese people say maidongxi instead of mainanbei.A theory says that in the Tang Dynasty,there were two popular markets in Chang'an,the national capital at that time.One was called the East Market,and the other was called the West Market.When shopping, people usually went to the East Market first,and then went to the West Market.As time went by, people started to describe shopping as maidongxi. Up or down We use shangcesuo to mean "go to the bathroom"and xiachufang to mean "go to the kitchen".Why?In ancient times,houses were laid out (in a certain way.The gate of the house would face south,with the bathroom in the northeastern part of the house and the kitchen in the southeastern part.On maps,north is usually at the top while south is at the bottom.In Chinese, we talk about the north as shang and the south as xia.So people would say they're going up to the bathroom and down to the kitchen. Ancient Chinese not only used shang and xia to refer to directions but also social positions For example,people used huangshang to refer to the emperor and dianxia to refer to princes who had a lower position than the emperor. Left or right Most people today are right-handed.They feel uncomfortable if they try to use their left hand to write or use chopsticks.This was true in old times as well.So in ancient China,"left"means something different,such as in yijianxiangzuo. When shaking hands,it's important to know which hand to use.In most cultures,the right hand is generally used for a handshake.For example,in some countries,such as India and Nepal, the left hand is considered unclean.However,if you are in a culture where the left hand is used, you'd better do as the locals do. 37.Why does the writer mention shangcesuo and yijianxiangzuo at the beginning? A.To share a story. B.To solve a mystery. C.To give an example. D.To start the topic. 38.Which picture shows the layout of houses in ancient China according to the passage? gate: bathroom:L kitchen:L B 九年级英语试题第5页（共8页） 39.Which Chinese phrase shows the cultural meaning mentioned in the passage? A.左顾右盼 B.七上八下C.日落西山 D.旁门左道 40.Which of the following may be the best title for this passage? A.Changes in the use of words for directions in Chinese. B.Differences between Chinese and English for directions. C.History and culture behind Chinese words for directions. D.Social position hidden behind Chinese words for directions. 第二节：请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项， 使短文通顺流畅，其中有两项是多余项。 Adolescence (is a difficult time for teenagers.It takes place when you are aged between thirteen and nineteen.41.Everyone will go through these changes.For example, you used to be happiest in the company of your parents.But now you need your own space and some privacy.In the past,your parents made most decisions for you,but now you want to decide things for yourself. 42.But it is important to remember that they will influence your relationship with your parents.So what can you do to make life easier and make sure that you stay on good terms with your parents?

Celebrated on the second day of the second lunar month,the Dragon Head Raising Festival gets its meaning from ancient ideas about nature.In Chinese 九年级英语试题第7页（共8页） stories,the dragon wakes up with spring thunder,bringing life back to the land.For many people, the day marks a fresh start and carries the promise of a good harvest. Well-loved traditions continue across the country.Many choose to get a haircut,a practice meant to welcome new chances.Special"dragon-themed"foods are also widely enjoyed:spring pancakes for dragon scales,Longxumian,and Huntun for dragon eyes.These dishes carry sincere wishes for health and good luck.Some families use herbs to drive away insects,expressing hopes for health and successful farming. The Spring Equinox,one of China's 24 Solar Terms,arrives as the sun crosses the equator ()making day and night almost equal in length around the world.As temperatures rise, swallows return,and thunder becomes more common.With good weather,enough rain and bright sunshine,crops grow quickly,making the equinox very important for farming. The coming together of these two events carries double meaning.The festival stands for rain, energy and the start of spring farming.The equinox represents balance,harmony and natural growth.Together,they show the deep connection between Chinese culture and nature,and express people's common hope for good weather and fruitful years. 66.How often does the special meeting take place? 67.Where does the Dragon Head Raising Festival get its meaning? 68.Why do many people get a haircut at the Dragon Head Raising Festival? 69.What does the Spring Equinox represent? 70.How should we treat the various traditions? 七、书面表达（共1小题；满分25分） 71.在成长过程中，每个人都会遇到压力与烦恼，也常常会因为觉得自己不够完美而焦虑。 你校英语社团以“It's OK Not to Be Perfect”为主题开展征文活动。请你写一篇英文短文 进行投稿。 要点包括： (1)谈谈你曾经因哪个方面的不完美而烦恼（如学习、性格或生活中的某一方面）； (2) 结合一次具体经历，说明你如何改变看法并逐渐悦纳自己； (3) 表达你的感受并对同学们提出建议。 注意： (I)紧扣要点，可适当发挥，使文章连贯； (②)词数90左右（开头已给出，不计入总词数）； (3)文中不得出现与考生相关的真实校名和姓名等信息。 It's OK Not to Be Perfect Nobody in the world is perfect,including me. 参考答案 一、 单项选择 1-5 CBCAA 6-10 BADDB 二、完形填空 11-15 BBCAB 16-20 DCADC 21-25 BAADB 三、阅读理解 26-28 CBA 29-32 ABDC 33-36 ABCB 37- 40 DBDC 41-45 GBEFA 四、词汇运用 46.possible 47.alive 48.written 49. history 50.turn 51. serve 52. provides 53.Since 54. considered/consider 55.easier 五、选词填空 56.to cut in 57.has made a difference 58.enjoying 59.will be set up 60.wealthier 61.is looking through 62.were handed out 63.successfully 64.was preparing for 65.by accident 六、阅读表达 66.About every 19 years. 67.From ancient ideas about nature. 68.To welcome new chances. 69.Balance,harmony and natural growth 70.Protect and pass them on./言之有理即可。
