I am an English teacher living in Beijing. My field of study is family education. Tell me what’s on your mind and I’ll see how I can help you. Dear Jakub, My parents plan everything for me. They plan my schoolwork, my free time and even my holidays. I told them that I want to make my own plans, but they do not listen. What should I do? Li Lingling, 14 Hi, Lingling, Our parents always see us as their little children. They want to take care of us. But sometimes they forget that we are growing up and can start to make our own choices. Maybe it is still too early for you to live or travel alone. But there are many small actions you can do to show your parents you are more independent. For example, you can do chores like cleaning the bathroom after you take a shower, cooking a meal or washing clothes on the weekends. These small actions show that you don’t wait for your parents to do everything. The same is true for hobbies. If you want to learn painting or sports, you can look for a school and offer to pay part of the cost. To do this, you can use your allowance (零花钱) you have saved up. This is a good way to show adults you are becoming more independent. And then maybe from time to time your parents can allow you to make your decisions. Jakub 11. Why does Li Lingling ask Jakub for help? A. Because she isn’t good at English. B. Because she doesn’t have good friends. C. Because she wants to find a good job. D. Because she wants to make her own decisions. 12. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. Being a teacher is hard. B. Small actions can show you are ready. C. Doing chores is helpful. D. Different hobbies can make you happy. 13. Where can you read the passage? A. In a magazine. B. In a novel. C. In a travel guidebook. D. In a book report. B China has completed its BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (北斗卫星导航系统), or BDS, becoming another one in the world with a global navigation network (导航网络), and the other three are GPS of the US, GLONASS of Russia and Galileo of the European Union. As the name suggests, the global navigation system (全球导航系统) provides navigation and location services 24 hours a day. From what we have known so far, building a good satellite system costs a lot. Besides, the other systems have been set up. Why does China have a new one if there is nothing special? The other three systems have 24 satellites (卫星). Besides the 24 satellites, China’s new BeiDou-3 (BDS-3) has six more satellites. They can improve BDS’ accuracy (精准性). BDS has another strong point—the short message service. It allows users to have a two-way communication. In areas not covered by communication signals, BDS can make the short message service available in some uninhabited areas, such as deserts, forests, and mountains. With this service, users who are in danger can tell the rescue team (救援队) their location and condition. In fact, BDS is also good business. It’s important for China to have its own navigation satellite system to meet the needs of the country’s development. BDS plays an important role in our country’s progress. 14. BDS is the ________ global navigation network in the world. A. third B. fourth C. fifth D. sixth 15. What does the underlined word “uninhabited” in Paragraph 4 mean? A. It describes a high place. B. It describes a place with lots of animals. C. It describes a crowded place. D. It describes a place where no people live. 16. What is TRUE about China’s BDS? A. BDS can only be used in danger. B. BDS has only one way of communicating. C. BeiDou-3 has 30 satellites in all. D. BDS was invented earlier than GLONASS. 17. What is the best title? A. Do you know China’s BDS? B. Do you know who invented BDS? C. How is China developing? D. Why should we develop science and technology? C If you’ve ever cried during a movie, you might have been called too emotional (情绪化的). ____18____ Scientists aren’t sure exactly what happens when we cry, but they know it can help us feel better. A study found that 50 percent of participants (参与者) felt happier after crying. Also, when people see us cry, they are willing to help us. Professor (教授) Ad Vingerhoets, an expert, says that crying makes others feel empathy (同感), so they want to support and be kind to us. “That is to say, tears (眼泪) connect, ” Professor Vingerhoets says. Research shows that people who cry are seen as warmer, nicer, more reliable (可靠的) and honest. ____19____ While some people might feel worse after crying or get a headache, many feel better. Another expert, Anna Mathur explains, “Crying is how our body lets out strong feelings. When we hold a lot of emotions, we can become like a pressure cooker (高压锅), until our body finds a way to let things go. ” ____20____ Or that crying after hitting your foot makes the pain go away faster? This is because of your body’s response (反应) to crying. “By letting tears go, you are welcoming happy hormones (荷尔蒙),” says Mathur. Some of them can even make pain feel less strong. So, the next time you feel stressed about your exams or study, remember that it’s perfectly okay to cry. Sometimes letting those tears go can be the first step to feeling better, clearing your mind, and finding the strength to try again. ____21____ A. Have you noticed that after crying, you feel more relaxed? B. We mustn’t cry when we lose or feel sad. C. A little cry might just help you wash away the stress and welcome a fresh start. D. They are people we like as friends, neighbors or partners. E. But crying is normal, and it can actually be good for us. D 阅读访谈材料，将学生提问的5个问题与中国日报China Daily双语记者彭译萱的答复A-E进行匹配。 ____22____ How did you start vlogging (拍视频博客)? ____23____ Have you been refused during interviews? ____24____ What has the job of being a journalist (记者) brought you? ____25____ What do you do every day as a new media (媒体) journalist? ____26____ Is there any advice you’d like to give to those new journalists? A. It helps me make many new friends. Also, it makes me see the necessity and power of international communication. In the past few years, we have seen a change in Chinese media. We went from telling stories from abroad to telling the world stories. I feel quite proud. B. It was quite by accident. When I suggested recording the Two Sessions (两会) in the form of a vlog, everyone on the team was unsure about this idea. We finally decided to give it a try, and surprisingly, the vlog became popular online. C. Well, they need to have great skills and knowledge, and react (做出反应) quickly to the latest news. Also, it’s important to care. Only when they actually care about the people and the topic they are covering, will they make the interviewees open up and touch the hearts of their audience (观众). D. Many times! That’s why I think a good way of asking is important. Once I tried to interview a foreigner. I saw him refuse many journalists before me. I knew I must change. I said, “You look so cool! Are these traditional clothes from your country?” That got him to start talking to me. E. My team and I need to discuss what to cover, who to interview and so on. Then I write a text. When filming, I need to reach out to different people. I do the editing (剪辑) part too. Making vlogs is much easier. I just think of what to ask, and go to talk to people with my phone. 第Ⅱ卷（非选择题） 三、选词填空 根据短文内容，选择适当的单词填空，使短文意思完整。每个选项只用一次，有两项剩余。 one in and traditional who develop that but over finally life took From National Treasure to The Chinese Poetry Competition and then Everlasting Classics (经典咏流传), there are a growing number of TV shows about traditional Chinese culture and they’ve caught much attention. Now a new music show about ____27____ folk music, Flowers Bloom in Spring (春天花会开), has won praise since it first met the public in March, 2022.

The story is about a sailing ship called the Mary Celeste and the strange disappearance (消失) of all the people on the ship. ____37____ November 7th, 1872, the ship Mary Celeste left New York for Italy. The captain (船长), his wife and daughter, and seven sailors (海员) ____38____ (be) on this ship. But something terrible happened. The captain of another ship found Mary Celeste floating (漂浮) in the sea on December 4th, 1872. However, there wasn’t ____39____ (somebody) on the ship. The captain, his wife and daughter, and the sailors were never found. ____40____ happened? Why did the captain, his family and the sailors leave the ship? Mary Celeste was not ____41____ (break). Everything was good. There was enough food and drinking water. There were signs that all the people had left the ship in a hurry. We could tell all these because there was half-eaten food on the table. The sailors also left all ____42____ (they) clothing behind. Even their shoes were beside their beds. How and when did the people leave the ship? Some people said that the lifeboat (救生艇) was still on the ship but others said it was missing. The captain’s diary ____43____ (find) on the ship and the last passage was written on November 24th. So we could only ____44____ (guess) that something happened during the period between November 24th and December 4th. A man went on the ship several ____45____ (time) to search for the answers to all these questions. ____46____ he couldn’t find any. It is still a mystery. No one else has solved it yet. 五、阅读表达 阅读短文，根据短文内容简要回答问题。 Did you hear one side of a story about a person and judge (评价) the person right away? It’s so common that we’ve probably done that. If your friend just had an argument with someone and told you the person’s faults (错误), you might begin to develop a sense of hate against the person. But here’s the truth: every argument has more than one side that needs to be considered. What’s the connection between having arguments and watching movies? When you only listen to one side of a story, it’s like watching a movie, but only some certain scenes. This way, you’ll miss many parts that can influence your understanding of the whole story. By learning both sides of a story, you can get a clearer picture of it and a better understanding of people’s relationships. For example, your sister is now upset because she didn’t get the invitation to her friend’s birthday party. After listening to her side, you might think of her friend as unfriendly. But, what if her friend only invited her family to the party? Her friend didn’t want your sister to feel embarrassed at the party, so she didn’t invite her. Then you’ll understand how thoughtful (体贴的) her friend is. You no longer think of her friend as unfriendly but understanding. Remember that there are two sides of a story. It’s certainly not wise to consider only one side of the story. Judging someone before hearing the whole story is dangerous. In doing so, you might miss the truth and make serious mistakes. Don’t make such mistakes and never judge others before walking in their shoes. 47. How do people feel if their friend tells them someone else’s faults in the passage? _________________________________________________________________________ 48. What’s Paragraph 2 mainly about? _________________________________________________________________________ 49. Why does the writer give an example in Paragraph 3? _________________________________________________________________________ 50. What will happen if people judge someone before hearing the whole story in the passage? _________________________________________________________________________ 51. What can you learn from the passage? _________________________________________________________________________ 六、书面表达 52. 明天英语课“Daily Report”环节，老师让同学们分享自己最喜欢的音乐或者电影。假设你是李华，请以“My favorite ________ (music/movie) ”为题，写一篇100词左右的英语发言稿，明天课堂进行展示。 提示：1. 你喜欢的音乐或者电影类型； 2. 你喜欢的一部具体作品； 3. 你喜欢它的主要原因。 要求：1. 要点齐全，适当发挥，语言流畅，书写整洁； 2. 文中不得出现姓名、班级、学校的真实信息。 _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 温馨提示：请同学们将所有答案写到答题卡相应位置！ 2025—2026学年度第一学期期中学业水平检测 初四英语试题 注意事项： 考生将第Ⅰ卷各小题的答案用2B铅笔把答题卡上相应题目的答案标号涂黑。第Ⅱ卷必须写在答题卡各题目指定区域内的相应位置。 第Ⅰ卷（选择题） 一、完型填空 【1~10题答案】 【答案】1.
