As time passed, I began to 1 to understand Chinese language basics. For example, I didn’t know how to 2 and write the Chinese characters correctly. When I met new Chinese characters, I knew nothing but their meanings. 3 , after high school, I entered a college in China. The Chinese lessons here started with the basics. My Chinese teacher, Mr. Yang, 4 us the basics I never knew before. He guided us very well. He 5 us how to write each Chinese character step by step. The class was online, but I thought it was 6 and interesting. Mr. Yang let us practice pronouncing Chinese words after him. Besides, he always asked us to take a picture of our Chinese character writing and send it to him so that he could correct the 7 for us. If I had a question in class, I could ask him directly. Then he would discuss and explain the 8 with the whole class. I really learnt a lot from his lessons. 9 , listening to the teacher carefully in class is the most important in learning Chinese. Chinese may be the hardest 10 to learn. But as the saying goes, “Where there is a will, there’s a way.” I believe that with a lot of hard work and such a kind teacher’s help, I will learn it well. 1．A．fail B．plan C．repeat 2．A．practice B．pronounce C．provide 3．A．Again B．Luckily C．Instead 4．A．punished B．asked C．taught 5．A．showed B．offered C．admired 6．A．terrible B．difficult C．enjoyable 7．A．examples B．attention C．mistakes 8．A．answer B．secret C．conversation 9．A．However B．In fact C．By accident 10．A．language B．sentence C．grammar 【答案】 1．A 2．B 3．B 4．C 5．A 6．C 7．C 8．A 9．B 10．A 【导语】本文讲述作者中学学中文效果不佳，后在中国大学遇良师，通过努力学好中文的经历，强调了毅力与方法的重要性。 1．句意：随着时间流逝，我开始未能理解中文语言基础。 fail to do sth是固定搭配，意为“没能做成某事”。前文提到中学学中文学不好，后文举例说自己不会读写汉字，符合“依旧没能理解中文基础”的逻辑，应用fail。plan“计划”，repeat“重复”，不符合逻辑。 2．句意：例如，我不知道如何正确发音和书写汉字。 and连接并列动作，后文是write the Chinese characters，此处对应“发音/读”汉字，符合学习汉字的两个基本要求，也和后面“除了意思什么也不知道”呼应，应用pronounce。practice“练习”，provide“提供”，不符合逻辑。 3．句意：幸运的是，高中毕业后，我进入了中国的一所大学。 前文说自己之前学不好中文，后文说到中国上大学、老师从头教基础，这是很幸运的转折，所以用Luckily。Again“再次”，Instead“代替”，不符合逻辑。 4．句意：我的中文老师杨老师教了我们以前不知道的基础知识。 杨老师是语文老师，教给“我”之前没懂的基础，taught符合老师的行为。punished“惩罚”，asked“询问”，不符合逻辑。 5．句意：他一步步向我们展示如何写每个汉字。 show sb how to do sth表示“向某人展示如何做某事”，此处指老师给学生展示书写过程，应用showed。offered“提供”，admired“羡慕”，不符合逻辑。 6．句意：课程是在线的，但我认为它是令人愉快且有趣的。 and连接并列的褒义词，和interesting并列，enjoyable“令人愉快的”符合语境。terrible“糟糕的”，difficult“困难的”，不符合逻辑。 7．句意：此外，他总让我们把汉字书写拍成照片发给他，以便他能为我们纠正错误。 固定搭配correct mistakes意为“纠正错误”，老师收学生写字的照片是为了纠正书写错误，mistakes符合逻辑。examples“例子”，attention“注意力”，不符合逻辑。 8．句意：然后他会与全班讨论并解释答案。 学生提出问题，老师会与全班讨论并解释问题的答案，answer符合语境。secret“秘密”，conversation“对话”，不符合逻辑。 9．句意：事实上，课上认真听讲是学习中文最重要的。 前文说自己收获很多，此处引出自己总结的感悟“事实上，认真听课是学中文最重要的事”，In fact符合逻辑。However“然而”，By accident“偶然”，不符合逻辑。 10．句意：中文可能是最难学的语言。 中文本身是一门语言，此处指中文或许是最难学的语言，language符合语义。sentence“句子”，grammar“语法”，不符合逻辑。 二、阅读理解。 （25-26九年级上·安徽阜阳·期中）①As a ninth-grader, you may face challenges like heavy homework and balancing hobbies. It’s normal to feel stressed, but there are ways to overcome difficulties. ②Millie, a 15-year-old from Sydney, used to struggle (挣扎) with homework. She stayed up late, felt tired in class, and had no time for her hobbies—playing the piano and painting. She thought she had to choose between schoolwork and interests. ③Then her teacher gave her advice. First, make a daily schedule. Millie wrote down tasks and assigned (分配) time to each, organizing her time better. Second, break large tasks into smaller parts. Instead of finishing an article in one night, she wrote an outline (提纲) one day and a paragraph the next. ④ ▲ . She studied with her phone nearby, spending more time checking messages than studying. To fix this, she put her phone in another room and studied at her quiet bedroom desk. ⑤After following these suggestions, Millie finished homework on time, slept more, and had time for hobbies. She felt less stressed and more confident. “Plan your time wisely and stay focused,” she says. “You don’t have to give up your hobbies to do well in school—find a balance.” ⑥If you face similar problems, talk to teachers, parents, or friends for advice.

A．①—②③④⑤—⑥ B．①②③—④⑤—⑥ C．①—②③④—⑤⑥ D．①②—③④—⑤⑥ 【答案】1．C 2．B 3．A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了九年级学生Millie在面对作业压力时，通过制定时间计划、拆分任务、专注学习等方法，成功平衡学业与爱好的故事，传递了合理规划、保持专注的重要性。 1．第三段中老师给出的建议提到：“Second, break large tasks into smaller parts. Instead of finishing an article in one night, she wrote an outline one day and a paragraph the next.”，老师建议把大任务拆成小部分，Millie采纳了这个方法，写文章时先写提纲，再分段完成。 2．第三段讲述了制定时间表和分解任务的建议，第四段紧接着讲述了手机干扰的新问题及解决方法。选项B“Even with a schedule, Millie still faced another problem.”起到了承上启下的作用，引出下文关于手机干扰的具体描述，逻辑最通顺。 3．文章第①段引入话题 (九年级学生面临的挑战)；第②至⑤段详细叙述了Millie的具体案例 (遇到困难、接受建议、解决问题及取得成效)；第⑥段总结全文并向读者提出建议。因此文章结构为“引入—案例主体—总结建议”，即①—②③④⑤—⑥。 （2026·江苏连云港·二模）Have you ever wondered why some people seem to remember everything while others forget things easily? The answer lies in how our brains work. Our brain has a part called the hippocampus (海马体), which is very important for memory. When we learn something new, the hippocampus helps to store the information. But if we don’t use that information again, the brain may slowly forget it. That’s why reviewing what you learn is so important. Scientists have found that there is a good way to remember things better: spaced repetition. This means you review new information at different times, not all at once. For example, if you learn 10 new words today, review them tomorrow, then again after three days, then after a week. This helps the brain move information from short-term memory to long-term memory. Another useful way is to connect new information with things you already know. If you are learning about pandas, think about what you already know—they are black and white, they eat bamboo, they live in China. Making these connections helps your brain create stronger memory paths. Getting enough sleep is also very important for memory. During sleep, your brain organizes and stores what you learned during the day. So don’t stay up late studying—a good night’s sleep will help you remember better the next day. 1．What part of the brain is very important for memory? A．The brain stem. B．The hippocampus. C．The cerebellum. D．The frontal lobe. 2．What does “spaced repetition” mean according to the passage? A．Learning everything in one day. B．Reviewing information at different times. C．Reading information again and again without stopping. D．Writing down everything you learn. 3．How can you create stronger memory paths? A．By learning more new things every day. B．By connecting new information with things you already know. C．By studying for a long time without a break. D．By reading the same page many times. 4．What should you do to remember better according to the passage? A．Stay up late studying. B．Avoid sleeping too much. C．Get enough sleep. D．Study all night before an exam. 5．Which of the following is the best title for this passage? A．How to Be a Good Student B．The Importance of Sleep C．Ways to Improve Your Memory D．How the Human Brain Works 【答案】1．B 2．B 3．B 4．C 5．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了大脑中负责记忆的海马体，并提出了几种提高记忆的方法：间隔重复、联系已有知识以及保证充足睡眠。 1．文章第二段指出“Our brain has a part called the hippocampus, which is very important for memory.”，说明海马体对记忆非常重要。 2．文章第三段指出“This means you review new information at different times, not all at once.”，说明间隔重复是指在不同时间复习信息。 3．文章第四段指出“Making these connections helps your brain create stronger memory paths.”，说明通过将新信息与已知事物联系起来可以创建更强的记忆路径。 4．文章最后一段指出“Getting enough sleep is also very important for memory.”，说明要想记住更好，应该保证充足睡眠。 5．文章介绍了海马体、间隔重复、联系已知知识和充足睡眠等提高记忆的方法，因此最佳标题为“Ways to Improve Your Memory”。 $Unit 3 Smart Learning 课时6 Section B Vocabulary in Use 分层作业 A组 巩固过关 C组 思维拔高 B组 能力进阶 拓展 链接中考 ( 词汇 aloud adv. 大声地 grammar n. 语法 project n. 课题；项目 repeat v. 重复 method n. 方法 dialogue n. 对话 advantage n. 优势 connect v. 联系 step n. 步骤 句型 1.You can read aloud to improve your pronunciation. 你可以大声朗读来提升你的发音。 2.We should connect new knowledge with what we have learnt. 我们应该把新知识和已学内容联系起来。 3.Step by step, you will become an active learner. 一步一步坚持，你会成为一名主动学习者。 ) 一、单词默写。 ( 1 / 6 ) 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 1.________ adv. 大声地 2.________ n. 语法 3.________ n. 优势 4.________ v. 联系 5.________ n. 方法 6.________ n. 对话 二、词组默写 1.________ 大声朗读 2.________ 循序渐进 3.________ 把…… 和…… 联系起来 4.________ 充分利用 5.________ 主动学习者 6.________ 学习方法 三、根据汉语提示完成句子 1.我们可以循序渐进地掌握英语语法知识。 We can learn English grammar knowledge _______________. 2. 你需要把新单词和生活场景联系起来记忆。 You need to _______________ life scenes to memorize new words. 3. 大声朗读是提升英语口语的有效方法。 _______________ is a useful way to improve your spoken English. 一、语法填空。 （25-26九年级上·内蒙古包头·阶段检测）阅读短文内容，在空白处填入一个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 I often hear some students say English is difficult.
