We need to pass down Chinese culture for several reasons. Chinese traditional culture is our pride. It has a long history and influences the world greatly. To protect it, we can use modern ways like social media. We can also tell Chinese stories in English. My favorite form is paper-cutting. Made by hand, it shows beautiful patterns of animals and flowers. I will share it with my foreign friends. In short, everyone should help pass down our culture. Let the world understand and love it more. 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司1 / 14 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $………………○………………外………………○………………装………………○………………订………………○………………线………………○……………… ………………○………………内………………○………………装………………○………………订………………○………………线………………○……………… 此卷只装订不密封 ………………○………………内………………○………………装………………○………………订………………○………………线………………○……………… ………………○………………外………………○………………装………………○………………订………………○………………线………………○……………… … 学校：______________姓名：_____________班级：_______________考号：______________________ 2026-2027学年九年级上册英语单元自测 Unit 1 Information and Media·培优冲刺卷 学校:___________班级：___________姓名：___________分数：___________ 一、语法选择。(本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) Dear Sam, In your last e-mail, you said you had some problems in keeping good manners online.

Nowadays, short-distance local travel has become a new 11 for young people in Guangdong. People don’t prefer travelling far away. 12 , they choose one-day trips that let them slow down and enjoy local Lingnan culture that has been passed down for hundreds of years. Guangdong has rich intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产), which is still active in people’s daily life. In Chaozhou, visitors have chances to experience the traditional Gongfu tea with 13 people. Through it, people can learn about the warmth and patience that the tea carries. In Foshan, tourists can learn paper-cutting and kung fu, which are two 14 symbols of southern Chinese culture and show the beauty and strength of folk traditions. Many old streets in Guangdong are newly 15 . They mix ancient houses with modern shops. This special mix makes cultural travel more lively. Local food is also a big 16 . If travelers taste traditional snacks, they will surely fall in love with the delicious taste of Lingnan life. Local governments are also working hard to develop cultural tourism. They use new media and short videos to 17 local culture to more people who have never known about these traditions. Thanks to these efforts, more and more teenagers begin to 18 traditional culture and even take part in activities to pass it on. It helps more people all over the world 19 and protect our heritage. If we take good care of our Lingnan traditional culture, short-distance local cultural travel will become more 20 and shine forever. 11．A．hobby B．choice C．habit D．rule 12．A．However B．Therefore C．Instead D．Besides 13．A．local B．strange C．ancient D．public 14．A．modern B．foreign C．common D．special 15．A．built B．improved C．created D．fixed 16．A．problem B．surprise C．reason D．secret 17．A．share B．compare C．introduce D．offer 18．A．wait for B．look for C．give up D．care about 19．A．doubt B．hide C．understand D．refuse 20．A．careful B．peaceful C．meaningful D．colorful 三．阅读理解(本大题共25小题，每小题2分，共50分) A Before the internet, people got most of their information from print media like newspapers and magazines, or from radio and TV. They had to wait for the next day’s newspaper to know what happened the day before. Now, things are very different. With the internet and social media, we can get news instantly (立刻). We can read articles, watch videos, or listen to podcasts (播客) at any time. We can also share information with friends quickly. But there are problems too. Not all online information is true. Some people spread fake news to trick others. Also, spending too much time on social media can make people feel stressed or lonely. So, it’s important to use media wisely. We should check if the information is from a reliable source, and we should balance our time between using media and doing other things. 21．Where did people get most information before the internet? A．From social media. B．From print media, radio and TV. C．From podcasts. D．From online videos. 22．What does the word “instantly” mean in the second paragraph? A．Very slowly. B．At once. C．With difficulty. D．Every day. 23．What is one problem of using online media? A．We can get news quickly. B．We can share information with friends. C．Some online information is not true. D．We can listen to podcasts at any time. 24．What should we do to use media wisely? A．Only get information from social media. B．Spend all our time on online media. C．Check if the information is from a reliable source. D．Believe all online information. 25．What is the main idea of the passage? A．The history of print media. B．The advantages of social media. C．How to make fake news. D．Changes in media and how to use it wisely. B In many areas of life, people compete even when it does not benefit them. Office workers stay late at work to avoid looking lazy. On social media, people feel pressed to post perfect photos. These situations all come from a problem called the theater effect, which explains why people find it hard to stop competing, even when it is unnecessary. The theater effect happens when one person tries to do better, forcing others to follow. In the end, everyone works harder, but no one truly benefits. Imagine watching a movie—if the people in front stand up, those behind must stand too. Finally, everyone is standing, but the view remains the same. A well-known experiment at Stanford University tested this idea. Researchers invited 200 people to bid (竞标) for a $100 bill. The highest bidder won, but the second-highest still had to pay. At first, bids were small, but as the price neared $100, people refused to stop. Some even bid more than $100 just to avoid losing their earlier bids. This irrational behavior shows that once competition begins, people realize that it’s hard to stop competing, even when it no longer makes sense. The theater effect comes from early human survival instincts (本能). Back then, the dopamine system (多巴胺系统) in our brain made us feel good about short-term success, like catching food, because it ensured survival. Today, this same system drives us to aim for victory in competitions—even when the results are meaningless. However, modern life is different. Today, while basic needs are no longer a big problem for us, we should learn to think clearly. Then how can we stop this kind of useless competition? First, we should know that we don’t need to win all the time to prove our value. Real growth means doing better than before, not better than others. Second, we should take a moment to ask ourselves, “Are we doing it because we truly enjoy it, or just because we are afraid to be left behind?” Another important point is to aim for meaningful goals, not just to win. Focus on what truly matters, and feel peace in your heart—that is how we find real happiness. So next time you feel pressed to “stand up”, just because others do, ask yourself: Is this really the best choice for me? 26．According to the passage, which is probably the example of the theater effect? A．A family enjoys a quiet dinner without surfing the internet. B．A company gives praise to workers for their continual efforts. C．People set a long-term goal to exercise more for better health. D．Students sign up for more classes because others are doing so. 27．What does the word “irrational” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean? A．Unreasonable. B．Worthless. C．Meaningful. D．Beneficial. 28．Why does the writer mention the Stanford University experiment? A．To show how people can wisely manage their money in competitions. B．To prove that people are naturally good at avoiding financial losses. C．To explain how competition can push people into making unwise decisions. D．To explain why being the highest bidder is always a bad idea. 29．The writer probably agrees that ________. A．joining in competitions is a good way to show your value B．it is wise to stop and think before joining in a competition C．competition is important and always helps us move forward D．following others is a safe way to avoid making wrong choices 30．What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A．To compare research findings on over-competition. B．To guide people to go for more successful achievements. C．To encourage people to care less about their basic needs. D．To advise readers to make choices that truly suit themselves. C In an art studio in Paris, a 20-year-old French college student, Emily, deeply focuses on learning traditional Chinese painting, known as guohua. Her interest in this art form began during a cultural exchange trip to China. She visited the Palace Museum in Beijing. 1 The beautiful landscapes and bright flowers painted with traditional brushes and ink (墨水) amazed her. This inspired her to learn more. After coming back to Paris, Emily joined a guohua class taught by Mr. Zhang, a master of this art. 2 He taught her the basic skills, from holding the brush to mixing ink. After months of practice, Emily completed a painting of a bamboo forest. Mr. Zhang praised her work, saying it was full of energy and spirit, which made her very proud. She realized that Chinese paintings are not only about skills, but also about emotional (情感的) expression and connection with nature. Emily decided to share her knowledge with others. She organized a small show at her home, explaining the history and importance of guohua to her friends. Her introduction inspired her friends to join her in learning the art. Together, they formed a guohua study group. 3 Emily also began sharing her learning journey on social media. She posted videos and gave lessons online. Emily dreams of spreading guohua around the world. She believes sharing its beauty can bring people closer. “Chinese paintings are like a window to another world. 4 And they also let me better understand Chinese culture,” she says. Through her hard work, Emily has not only learned a new skill but also built a bridge between cultures. She hopes her love for guohua will inspire others to explore and value China’s rich cultural heritage (遗产). 31．What made Emily want to learn traditional Chinese painting? A．A class she took in Paris. B．A book about Chinese history. C．A trip to the Palace Museum. D．A friend who learned Chinese painting. 32．Which of the following shows the correct order of the story? a. Emily completed a painting of a bamboo forest. b. Emily joined a guohua class taught by Mr. Zhang. c. Emily organized a small show at home to introduce guohua. d. Emily shared her learning journey on social media to inspire others. A．bacd B．badc C．dbac D．dbca 33．What does Emily think Chinese paintings are like? A．A difficult skill to learn. B．A window to another world. C．A way to make more friends. D．A tool to teach painting lessons. 34．Where can we put the sentence “They help me see the beauty in everyday moments and the balance in nature.” ________? A．1 B．2 C．3 D．4 35．What can be the best title for the passage? A．Exploring the History of Painting. B．Discovering Western Culture. C．Enjoying the Learning Process. D．Connecting Cultures Through Art. D The Shenzhen-produced dance drama “Wing Chun” (《咏春》) shows a traditional Chinese kung fu style. It was set to be performed in Paris from Oct. 4 to 6, 2024, with four performances over these three days, according to Shenzhen Daily. France Soir, a French national newspaper, highly praised the dance drama to its readers. According to the report, people who like Chinese martial arts (武术) and dance, will find “Wing Chun” very worth attending. The reporting team did a careful study of making “Wing Chun”. In order to show what it was like behind the stage, they traveled to Shenzhen to watch shows. During their visit to the Pingshan Theatre in Shenzhen in late June, the reporters were impressed by the production, saying that “the sets have nothing to envy Broadway theaters, and the stage is completely modern.” Wing Chun is one of the martial arts inherited (传承) from Shaolin. Yip Man (叶问) is the third generation inheritor. He began teaching Wing Chun in Hong Kong in 1949. Yip Man later introduced Wing Chun to the country. Today, Wing Chun is the second most popular martial art after Tai Chi. All this is because of Yip Man. In 2014, Wing Chun was added to the national intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) list. It has also become popular worldwide through action films. A post on a French blog said this show was a cultural feast (盛宴) for the eyes and the soul. It reported “Wing Chun” would meet the growing interest in the dance drama in France. This production was rich in traditional Chinese culture. It was expected to greet local audiences and leave an impression on the local arts scene, after its successful overseas performances in the UK and Singapore. 36．How does the writer start the passage? A．By telling a story. B．By raising a question. C．By showing a piece of news. D．By listing some numbers. 37．What does “it” in paragraph 3 refer to? A．“Wing Chun”. B．A careful study. C．The reporting team. D．A Chinese kung fu style. 38．How does Wing Chun become popular all over the country? A．Through action movies. B．Through martial arts schools. C．Through Tai Chi shows. D．Through Yip Man’s introduction. 39．What can we infer about the dance-drama “Wing Chun”? A．“Wing Chun” would cost people a lot in France. B．“Wing Chun” would only be performed in France. C．“Wing Chun” would have little effect on the local scene in France. D．“Wing Chun” would be better introduced internationally. 40．What’s the best title of the passage? A．Wing Chun Leads Fashion in Hong Kong B．Wing Chun Becomes a National Cultural Feast C．“Wing Chun” Gains Attention from French Media D．“Wing Chun” Makes the Most Popular Chinese Show E Many of us have had the same “pleasant surprise”. After you mark a song as a favorite on a music app (程序), it suggests songs of the same kind to listen to. 41 Big data (数据) is a lot of sets of information that are put together so they can be used by a computer program. It can have different kinds of information from many sources (来源), such as information that comes from schools, social media sites, companies, and governments. 42 Another set can have what they like, where they go to school, and how much time they spend on the computer. 43 The government uses it to understand how many people travel on buses or trains. The information is then used to make bus or train systems better. Companies use big data,too. It helps them understand who buys their products. For example, one company uses weather data to see when people eat the most ice cream. Big data can be used for good reasons. Some hospitals use big data to predict if a baby who is born too early will get sick. The hospital can then take extra steps to take care of that baby so he or she does not get sick. 44 It can be used to predict which kinds of people are likely to break the law or hurt others, even if they have not done anything wrong. 45 It is because the computer programs used to look at big data and understand it are written by people. People think a certain way. Because they think a certain way, they build a model of those ideas. These ideas are then used to look at the data. Sometimes, these ideas are helpful for people or businesses. Other times, bad ideas can cause problems for certain groups of people. 阅读短文，从所给的七个选项中选出五个能够填入空缺处的最佳选项，使短文内容完整、连贯。其中有两项是多余选项。 A．Big data can be used in many ways. B．Why do we use big data for bad things? C．Big data can also be used for bad reasons. D．How can big data be used for good and bad things? E．One set of data can have people’s names and addresses. F．In fact, this magic, mind-reading power depends on data. G．Big data can’t be used in many fields. 四．语法填空（10分） 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。 For many people, graduation is more than a personal success; it’s the result of teamwork and family support. This was especially true for Brazilian student Lorenzo Monfardini.

It serves as 54 reminder that behind every important life journey stands a community of supporters, and that gratitude can be as powerful as the 55 (achieve) itself. 五．任务型阅读（10分） 阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 Teen mental health: What role does social media play? Rates of low spirits, anxiety and other mental illnesses have been increasing in young Gen Z’ers, who were born after 1995. And in recent years, scientists and psychologists have often pointed out social media as one possible cause. New data confirm it could be a contributor. But how big a role it plays also depends on how teenagers choose to use it. In recent years, the internet has done some great things. It has brought people closer together. It has helped people form big communities that can reach over the world. And it can be an important place for people to find support and connection. No surprise, Gen Z is living online more than ever. But some teens can be exposed (暴露) to content that is harmful or upsetting. For instance, one survey in 2022 found that nearly half of all teens have been hurt or targeted online. And nearly two in every three Gen Z’ers came across negative content (内容) on social media. Social media is also a space where people are constantly comparing themselves to others. Am I pretty enough? Strong enough? Smart enough? Cool enough? One study of teens found that almost half reported that time spent on social media made them feel worse about their bodies. Only about one in every seven said viewing social media made them feel better. The good news is that you can take control. “The key is that social media use needs to be intentional (有意识的),” says Whitlock, a research psychologist. She means using it for some purposeful goal, not just to pass the time or as entertainment. In May 2023, the U.S. Surgeon General issued an official warning on teens’ social-media use. There’s still not enough evidence to say social media is safe for teens. But there was more than enough evidence, it said, to warn teens that they should take care when using it. Whitlock asks teens she works with to put together a “menu of practices” that improve good mental health. It should include little things they enjoy. She also suggests that if teens feel anxious, they should go back to that menu again and do something from their list—instead of turning to their phones and social media. Linked to both good and harm, social media should be used carefully. 56．What decides how big a role social media plays for teenagers? 57．What great things has the internet done in recent years? 58．Why may social media be harmful to teenagers’ mental health? 59．What is a wise way for teenagers to use social media? Why? (Please give two reasons.) 六．书面表达（10分） 60．现在越来越多的年轻人十分热衷于传承中国文化，主要体现在书法篆刻，绘画，戏剧，服装，烹饪，刺绣，剪纸，泥塑等方面。他们用有趣潮流的方式表达着对传统文化的热爱。请你根据以下要点提示，以“How to Pass Down Chinese Traditional Culture”为题，写一篇英语短文。 1. 阐述传承中国传统文化的原因 它是中国人的骄傲，有着悠久历史；它对世界文化有着极大的影响。 2. 说明传承传统文化的方法 我们要保护文化遗产，并且用现代方式介绍中国文化，例如利用社交媒体平台推广；用英语讲中国传统故事。 3. 介绍一种自己最喜欢的传统文化 包括名称、材料、传承方法等 4. 总结 大家都应参与其中。让世界上越来越多的人能够理解并且热爱中国文化。 注意：1. 词数80词左右（开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数）； 2. 可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯； 3. 不能出现自己的真实信息。 参考词汇：社交媒体social media；推广promote；元素element How to Pass Down Chinese Traditional Culture Chinese traditional culture is very rich and colorful, and there are many forms with Chinese elements. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 试题 第3页（共8页） 试题 第4页（共8页） 试题 第1页（共8页） 试题 第2页（共8页） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026-2027学年九年级上册英语单元自测 Unit 1 Information and Media·培优冲刺卷 学校:___________班级：___________姓名：___________分数：___________ 一、语法选择。(本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) Dear Sam, In your last e-mail, you said you had some problems in keeping good manners online.

Today, this same system drives us to aim for victory in competitions—even when the results are meaningless. However, modern life is different. Today, while basic needs are no longer a big problem for us, we should learn to think clearly. Then how can we stop this kind of useless competition? First, we should know that we don’t need to win all the time to prove our value. Real growth means doing better than before, not better than others. Second, we should take a moment to ask ourselves, “Are we doing it because we truly enjoy it, or just because we are afraid to be left behind?” Another important point is to aim for meaningful goals, not just to win. Focus on what truly matters, and feel peace in your heart—that is how we find real happiness. So next time you feel pressed to “stand up”, just because others do, ask yourself: Is this really the best choice for me? 26．According to the passage, which is probably the example of the theater effect? A．A family enjoys a quiet dinner without surfing the internet. B．A company gives praise to workers for their continual efforts. C．People set a long-term goal to exercise more for better health. D．Students sign up for more classes because others are doing so. 27．What does the word “irrational” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean? A．Unreasonable. B．Worthless. C．Meaningful. D．Beneficial. 28．Why does the writer mention the Stanford University experiment? A．To show how people can wisely manage their money in competitions. B．To prove that people are naturally good at avoiding financial losses. C．To explain how competition can push people into making unwise decisions. D．To explain why being the highest bidder is always a bad idea. 29．The writer probably agrees that ________. A．joining in competitions is a good way to show your value B．it is wise to stop and think before joining in a competition C．competition is important and always helps us move forward D．following others is a safe way to avoid making wrong choices 30．What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A．To compare research findings on over-competition. B．To guide people to go for more successful achievements. C．To encourage people to care less about their basic needs. D．To advise readers to make choices that truly suit themselves. C In an art studio in Paris, a 20-year-old French college student, Emily, deeply focuses on learning traditional Chinese painting, known as guohua. Her interest in this art form began during a cultural exchange trip to China. She visited the Palace Museum in Beijing. 1 The beautiful landscapes and bright flowers painted with traditional brushes and ink (墨水) amazed her. This inspired her to learn more. After coming back to Paris, Emily joined a guohua class taught by Mr. Zhang, a master of this art. 2 He taught her the basic skills, from holding the brush to mixing ink. After months of practice, Emily completed a painting of a bamboo forest. Mr. Zhang praised her work, saying it was full of energy and spirit, which made her very proud. She realized that Chinese paintings are not only about skills, but also about emotional (情感的) expression and connection with nature. Emily decided to share her knowledge with others. She organized a small show at her home, explaining the history and importance of guohua to her friends. Her introduction inspired her friends to join her in learning the art. Together, they formed a guohua study group. 3 Emily also began sharing her learning journey on social media. She posted videos and gave lessons online. Emily dreams of spreading guohua around the world. She believes sharing its beauty can bring people closer. “Chinese paintings are like a window to another world. 4 And they also let me better understand Chinese culture,” she says. Through her hard work, Emily has not only learned a new skill but also built a bridge between cultures. She hopes her love for guohua will inspire others to explore and value China’s rich cultural heritage (遗产). 31．What made Emily want to learn traditional Chinese painting? A．A class she took in Paris.

D The Shenzhen-produced dance drama “Wing Chun” (《咏春》) shows a traditional Chinese kung fu style. It was set to be performed in Paris from Oct. 4 to 6, 2024, with four performances over these three days, according to Shenzhen Daily. France Soir, a French national newspaper, highly praised the dance drama to its readers. According to the report, people who like Chinese martial arts (武术) and dance, will find “Wing Chun” very worth attending. The reporting team did a careful study of making “Wing Chun”. In order to show what it was like behind the stage, they traveled to Shenzhen to watch shows. During their visit to the Pingshan Theatre in Shenzhen in late June, the reporters were impressed by the production, saying that “the sets have nothing to envy Broadway theaters, and the stage is completely modern.” Wing Chun is one of the martial arts inherited (传承) from Shaolin. Yip Man (叶问) is the third generation inheritor. He began teaching Wing Chun in Hong Kong in 1949. Yip Man later introduced Wing Chun to the country. Today, Wing Chun is the second most popular martial art after Tai Chi. All this is because of Yip Man. In 2014, Wing Chun was added to the national intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) list. It has also become popular worldwide through action films. A post on a French blog said this show was a cultural feast (盛宴) for the eyes and the soul. It reported “Wing Chun” would meet the growing interest in the dance drama in France. This production was rich in traditional Chinese culture. It was expected to greet local audiences and leave an impression on the local arts scene, after its successful overseas performances in the UK and Singapore. 36．How does the writer start the passage? A．By telling a story. B．By raising a question. C．By showing a piece of news. D．By listing some numbers. 37．What does “it” in paragraph 3 refer to? A．“Wing Chun”. B．A careful study. C．The reporting team. D．A Chinese kung fu style. 38．How does Wing Chun become popular all over the country? A．Through action movies. B．Through martial arts schools. C．Through Tai Chi shows. D．Through Yip Man’s introduction. 39．What can we infer about the dance-drama “Wing Chun”? A．“Wing Chun” would cost people a lot in France. B．“Wing Chun” would only be performed in France. C．“Wing Chun” would have little effect on the local scene in France. D．“Wing Chun” would be better introduced internationally. 40．What’s the best title of the passage? A．Wing Chun Leads Fashion in Hong Kong B．Wing Chun Becomes a National Cultural Feast C．“Wing Chun” Gains Attention from French Media D．“Wing Chun” Makes the Most Popular Chinese Show E Many of us have had the same “pleasant surprise”. After you mark a song as a favorite on a music app (程序), it suggests songs of the same kind to listen to. 41 Big data (数据) is a lot of sets of information that are put together so they can be used by a computer program. It can have different kinds of information from many sources (来源), such as information that comes from schools, social media sites, companies, and governments. 42 Another set can have what they like, where they go to school, and how much time they spend on the computer. 43 The government uses it to understand how many people travel on buses or trains. The information is then used to make bus or train systems better. Companies use big data,too. It helps them understand who buys their products. For example, one company uses weather data to see when people eat the most ice cream. Big data can be used for good reasons. Some hospitals use big data to predict if a baby who is born too early will get sick. The hospital can then take extra steps to take care of that baby so he or she does not get sick. 44 It can be used to predict which kinds of people are likely to break the law or hurt others, even if they have not done anything wrong. 45 It is because the computer programs used to look at big data and understand it are written by people. People think a certain way. Because they think a certain way, they build a model of those ideas. These ideas are then used to look at the data. Sometimes, these ideas are helpful for people or businesses. Other times, bad ideas can cause problems for certain groups of people. 阅读短文，从所给的七个选项中选出五个能够填入空缺处的最佳选项，使短文内容完整、连贯。其中有两项是多余选项。 A．Big data can be used in many ways. B．Why do we use big data for bad things? C．Big data can also be used for bad reasons. D．How can big data be used for good and bad things? E．One set of data can have people’s names and addresses. F．In fact, this magic, mind-reading power depends on data. G．Big data can’t be used in many fields. 四．语法填空（10分） 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。 For many people, graduation is more than a personal success; it’s the result of teamwork and family support.

Rates of low spirits, anxiety and other mental illnesses have been increasing in young Gen Z’ers, who were born after 1995. And in recent years, scientists and psychologists have often pointed out social media as one possible cause. New data confirm it could be a contributor. But how big a role it plays also depends on how teenagers choose to use it. In recent years, the internet has done some great things. It has brought people closer together. It has helped people form big communities that can reach over the world. And it can be an important place for people to find support and connection. No surprise, Gen Z is living online more than ever. But some teens can be exposed (暴露) to content that is harmful or upsetting. For instance, one survey in 2022 found that nearly half of all teens have been hurt or targeted online. And nearly two in every three Gen Z’ers came across negative content (内容) on social media. Social media is also a space where people are constantly comparing themselves to others. Am I pretty enough? Strong enough? Smart enough? Cool enough? One study of teens found that almost half reported that time spent on social media made them feel worse about their bodies. Only about one in every seven said viewing social media made them feel better. The good news is that you can take control. “The key is that social media use needs to be intentional (有意识的),” says Whitlock, a research psychologist. She means using it for some purposeful goal, not just to pass the time or as entertainment. In May 2023, the U.S. Surgeon General issued an official warning on teens’ social-media use. There’s still not enough evidence to say social media is safe for teens. But there was more than enough evidence, it said, to warn teens that they should take care when using it. Whitlock asks teens she works with to put together a “menu of practices” that improve good mental health. It should include little things they enjoy. She also suggests that if teens feel anxious, they should go back to that menu again and do something from their list—instead of turning to their phones and social media. Linked to both good and harm, social media should be used carefully. 56．What decides how big a role social media plays for teenagers? 57．What great things has the internet done in recent years? 58．Why may social media be harmful to teenagers’ mental health? 59．What is a wise way for teenagers to use social media? Why? (Please give two reasons.) 六．书面表达（10分） 60．现在越来越多的年轻人十分热衷于传承中国文化，主要体现在书法篆刻，绘画，戏剧，服装，烹饪，刺绣，剪纸，泥塑等方面。他们用有趣潮流的方式表达着对传统文化的热爱。请你根据以下要点提示，以“How to Pass Down Chinese Traditional Culture”为题，写一篇英语短文。 1. 阐述传承中国传统文化的原因 它是中国人的骄傲，有着悠久历史；它对世界文化有着极大的影响。 2. 说明传承传统文化的方法 我们要保护文化遗产，并且用现代方式介绍中国文化，例如利用社交媒体平台推广；用英语讲中国传统故事。 3. 介绍一种自己最喜欢的传统文化 包括名称、材料、传承方法等 4. 总结 大家都应参与其中。让世界上越来越多的人能够理解并且热爱中国文化。 注意：1. 词数80词左右（开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数）； 2. 可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯； 3. 不能出现自己的真实信息。 参考词汇：社交媒体social media；推广promote；元素element How to Pass Down Chinese Traditional Culture Chinese traditional culture is very rich and colorful, and there are many forms with Chinese elements. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司1 / 14 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026-2027学年九年级上册英语单元自测 Unit 1 Information and Media·培优冲刺卷 学校:___________班级：___________姓名：___________分数：___________ （时间：90分钟，满分：100分） 一、语法选择。(本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) Dear Sam, In your last e-mail, you said you had some problems in keeping good manners online.

They had to wait for the next day’s newspaper to know what happened the day before. Now, things are very different. With the internet and social media, we can get news instantly (立刻). We can read articles, watch videos, or listen to podcasts (播客) at any time. We can also share information with friends quickly. But there are problems too. Not all online information is true. Some people spread fake news to trick others. Also, spending too much time on social media can make people feel stressed or lonely. So, it’s important to use media wisely. We should check if the information is from a reliable source, and we should balance our time between using media and doing other things. 21．Where did people get most information before the internet? A．From social media. B．From print media, radio and TV. C．From podcasts. D．From online videos. 22．What does the word “instantly” mean in the second paragraph? A．Very slowly. B．At once. C．With difficulty. D．Every day. 23．What is one problem of using online media? A．We can get news quickly. B．We can share information with friends. C．Some online information is not true. D．We can listen to podcasts at any time. 24．What should we do to use media wisely? A．Only get information from social media. B．Spend all our time on online media. C．Check if the information is from a reliable source. D．Believe all online information. 25．What is the main idea of the passage? A．The history of print media. B．The advantages of social media. C．How to make fake news. D．Changes in media and how to use it wisely. 【答案】21．B 22．B 23．C 24．C 25．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，对比互联网出现前后人们获取信息媒介的变化，介绍网络新媒体的优势与存在的问题，最后告诉我们应当理性、明智地使用媒体。 【详解】21．根据文章第一段第一句“Before the internet, people got most of their information from print media like newspapers and magazines, or from radio and TV.”可知，在互联网出现之前，人们主要从印刷媒体（如报纸和杂志）以及广播和电视获取信息。 22．根据文章第二段第二句“...we can get news instantly (立刻).”可知，文中括号内已给出中文提示“立刻”。结合上下文“随时阅读文章、观看视频”，说明获取新闻的速度很快。选项B“At once”意为“立刻、马上”，与instantly含义相符。 23．根据文章第三段第二句“Not all online information is true.”以及“Some people spread fake news to trick others.”可知，使用在线媒体的问题之一是并非所有信息都是真实的，存在假新闻。 24．根据文章最后一段第二句“We should check if the information is from a reliable source...”可知，为了明智地使用媒体，我们应该检查信息是否来自可靠的来源。 25．文章第一段和第二段对比了互联网前后媒体获取信息方式的变化，第三段指出了网络媒体存在的问题，第四段提出了明智使用媒体的建议。选项D“媒体的变化以及如何明智地使用它”涵盖了文章的主要内容。 B In many areas of life, people compete even when it does not benefit them. Office workers stay late at work to avoid looking lazy. On social media, people feel pressed to post perfect photos. These situations all come from a problem called the theater effect, which explains why people find it hard to stop competing, even when it is unnecessary. The theater effect happens when one person tries to do better, forcing others to follow. In the end, everyone works harder, but no one truly benefits. Imagine watching a movie—if the people in front stand up, those behind must stand too. Finally, everyone is standing, but the view remains the same. A well-known experiment at Stanford University tested this idea. Researchers invited 200 people to bid (竞标) for a $100 bill. The highest bidder won, but the second-highest still had to pay. At first, bids were small, but as the price neared $100, people refused to stop. Some even bid more than $100 just to avoid losing their earlier bids. This irrational behavior shows that once competition begins, people realize that it’s hard to stop competing, even when it no longer makes sense. The theater effect comes from early human survival instincts (本能). Back then, the dopamine system (多巴胺系统) in our brain made us feel good about short-term success, like catching food, because it ensured survival. Today, this same system drives us to aim for victory in competitions—even when the results are meaningless. However, modern life is different. Today, while basic needs are no longer a big problem for us, we should learn to think clearly. Then how can we stop this kind of useless competition? First, we should know that we don’t need to win all the time to prove our value. Real growth means doing better than before, not better than others. Second, we should take a moment to ask ourselves, “Are we doing it because we truly enjoy it, or just because we are afraid to be left behind?” Another important point is to aim for meaningful goals, not just to win. Focus on what truly matters, and feel peace in your heart—that is how we find real happiness. So next time you feel pressed to “stand up”, just because others do, ask yourself: Is this really the best choice for me? 26．According to the passage, which is probably the example of the theater effect? A．A family enjoys a quiet dinner without surfing the internet. B．A company gives praise to workers for their continual efforts. C．People set a long-term goal to exercise more for better health. D．Students sign up for more classes because others are doing so. 27．What does the word “irrational” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean? A．Unreasonable. B．Worthless. C．Meaningful. D．Beneficial. 28．Why does the writer mention the Stanford University experiment? A．To show how people can wisely manage their money in competitions. B．To prove that people are naturally good at avoiding financial losses. C．To explain how competition can push people into making unwise decisions. D．To explain why being the highest bidder is always a bad idea. 29．The writer probably agrees that ________. A．joining in competitions is a good way to show your value B．it is wise to stop and think before joining in a competition C．competition is important and always helps us move forward D．following others is a safe way to avoid making wrong choices 30．What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A．To compare research findings on over-competition. B．To guide people to go for more successful achievements. C．To encourage people to care less about their basic needs. D．To advise readers to make choices that truly suit themselves. 【答案】26．D 27．A 28．C 29．B 30．D 【导语】本文主要介绍了“剧场效应”这一现象——人们在竞争中盲目跟随他人，即使对自己没有真正好处也难以停止，并分析了其成因（人类生存本能）以及如何避免这种无益的竞争。 【详解】26．根据第二段“The theater effect happens when one person tries to do better, forcing others to follow.”（剧场效应发生在一个人试图做得更好，迫使其他人跟随的时候）可知，核心特征是“因他人行为而被迫跟随”。选项 D“学生因为别人这样做而报名更多课程”符合这一特征。 27．根据第三段实验描述“Some even bid more than $100 just to avoid losing their earlier bids.”（有些人甚至出价超过 100 美元，只是为了避免失去之前的出价）可知，为了赢100美元而花费超过100美元是不理智、不合理的行为。选项A“Unreasonable”意为“不合理的”，符合题意。 28．第三段引用斯坦福大学的实验，描述了人们为了竞标100美元甚至出价超过100美元的现象。作者紧接着指出“This irrational behavior shows that once competition begins... it’s hard to stop competing, even when it no longer makes sense.”（这种不理智的行为表明，一旦竞争开始……即使不再有意义，也很难停止竞争）。因此，提到该实验是为了说明竞争如何促使人们做出不明智的决定。 29．根据第五段“we should take a moment to ask ourselves...”（我们应该花点时间问问自己……）以及最后一段“ask yourself: Is this really the best choice for me?”（问问你自己：这真的是对我来说最好的选择吗？）可知，作者主张在参与竞争前应冷静思考，审视自己的真实需求。选项B“在加入竞争前停下来思考是明智的”符合作者观点。 30．通读全文，文章首先介绍了“剧场效应”及其弊端，分析了其产生的原因，最后在第五、六段重点提出了建议。因此，作者的主要目的是建议读者做出真正适合自己的选择，避免无意义的竞争。 C In an art studio in Paris, a 20-year-old French college student, Emily, deeply focuses on learning traditional Chinese painting, known as guohua.

It was set to be performed in Paris from Oct. 4 to 6, 2024, with four performances over these three days, according to Shenzhen Daily. France Soir, a French national newspaper, highly praised the dance drama to its readers. According to the report, people who like Chinese martial arts (武术) and dance, will find “Wing Chun” very worth attending. The reporting team did a careful study of making “Wing Chun”. In order to show what it was like behind the stage, they traveled to Shenzhen to watch shows. During their visit to the Pingshan Theatre in Shenzhen in late June, the reporters were impressed by the production, saying that “the sets have nothing to envy Broadway theaters, and the stage is completely modern.” Wing Chun is one of the martial arts inherited (传承) from Shaolin. Yip Man (叶问) is the third generation inheritor. He began teaching Wing Chun in Hong Kong in 1949. Yip Man later introduced Wing Chun to the country. Today, Wing Chun is the second most popular martial art after Tai Chi. All this is because of Yip Man. In 2014, Wing Chun was added to the national intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) list. It has also become popular worldwide through action films. A post on a French blog said this show was a cultural feast (盛宴) for the eyes and the soul. It reported “Wing Chun” would meet the growing interest in the dance drama in France. This production was rich in traditional Chinese culture. It was expected to greet local audiences and leave an impression on the local arts scene, after its successful overseas performances in the UK and Singapore. 36．How does the writer start the passage?

C．“Wing Chun” would have little effect on the local scene in France. D．“Wing Chun” would be better introduced internationally. 40．What’s the best title of the passage? A．Wing Chun Leads Fashion in Hong Kong B．Wing Chun Becomes a National Cultural Feast C．“Wing Chun” Gains Attention from French Media D．“Wing Chun” Makes the Most Popular Chinese Show 【答案】36．C 37．A 38．D 39．D 40．C 【导语】本文介绍了深圳舞剧《咏春》2024 年 10 月将登陆巴黎演出，多家法国媒体盛赞该剧舞台精良、饱含中华传统文化，讲述咏春拳传承与叶问的故事，作为国家级非遗，它此前已在英、新海外巡演收获成功，在法国广受期待。 【详解】36．文章开头 “The Shenzhen-produced dance drama ‘Wing Chun’... was set to perform in Paris from Oct. 4 to 6, 2024, with four performances over these three days, according to Shenzhen Daily.”，是以一则新闻开头。 37．第三段提到：“The reporting team did a well careful study of making ‘Wing Chun’. In order to show what it was like behind the stage...”，“it” 指代前文提到的 “Wing Chun”。 38．第五段提到：“Yip Man later introduced Wing Chun to the country.

All this is because of Yip Man.”，可知咏春在全国流行是通过叶问的推广。 39．最后一段提到：“after its successful overseas performances in the UK and Singapore. It was expected to greet local audiences and leave an impression on the local arts scene”，可推断《咏春》舞剧会在国际上得到更好的推广。 40．文章重点讲述 “法国《法兰西晚报》高度评价《咏春》舞剧、法国博客报道其为文化盛宴”，核心是《咏春》舞剧获得法国媒体关注。 E Many of us have had the same “pleasant surprise”. After you mark a song as a favorite on a music app (程序), it suggests songs of the same kind to listen to. 41 Big data (数据) is a lot of sets of information that are put together so they can be used by a computer program. It can have different kinds of information from many sources (来源), such as information that comes from schools, social media sites, companies, and governments. 42 Another set can have what they like, where they go to school, and how much time they spend on the computer. 43 The government uses it to understand how many people travel on buses or trains. The information is then used to make bus or train systems better. Companies use big data,too. It helps them understand who buys their products. For example, one company uses weather data to see when people eat the most ice cream. Big data can be used for good reasons. Some hospitals use big data to predict if a baby who is born too early will get sick. The hospital can then take extra steps to take care of that baby so he or she does not get sick. 44 It can be used to predict which kinds of people are likely to break the law or hurt others, even if they have not done anything wrong. 45 It is because the computer programs used to look at big data and understand it are written by people. People think a certain way. Because they think a certain way, they build a model of those ideas. These ideas are then used to look at the data. Sometimes, these ideas are helpful for people or businesses. Other times, bad ideas can cause problems for certain groups of people. 阅读短文，从所给的七个选项中选出五个能够填入空缺处的最佳选项，使短文内容完整、连贯。其中有两项是多余选项。 A．Big data can be used in many ways.

Rates of low spirits, anxiety and other mental illnesses have been increasing in young Gen Z’ers, who were born after 1995. And in recent years, scientists and psychologists have often pointed out social media as one possible cause. New data confirm it could be a contributor. But how big a role it plays also depends on how teenagers choose to use it. In recent years, the internet has done some great things. It has brought people closer together. It has helped people form big communities that can reach over the world. And it can be an important place for people to find support and connection. No surprise, Gen Z is living online more than ever. But some teens can be exposed (暴露) to content that is harmful or upsetting. For instance, one survey in 2022 found that nearly half of all teens have been hurt or targeted online. And nearly two in every three Gen Z’ers came across negative content (内容) on social media. Social media is also a space where people are constantly comparing themselves to others. Am I pretty enough? Strong enough? Smart enough? Cool enough? One study of teens found that almost half reported that time spent on social media made them feel worse about their bodies. Only about one in every seven said viewing social media made them feel better. The good news is that you can take control. “The key is that social media use needs to be intentional (有意识的),” says Whitlock, a research psychologist. She means using it for some purposeful goal, not just to pass the time or as entertainment. In May 2023, the U.S. Surgeon General issued an official warning on teens’ social-media use. There’s still not enough evidence to say social media is safe for teens. But there was more than enough evidence, it said, to warn teens that they should take care when using it. Whitlock asks teens she works with to put together a “menu of practices” that improve good mental health. It should include little things they enjoy. She also suggests that if teens feel anxious, they should go back to that menu again and do something from their list—instead of turning to their phones and social media. Linked to both good and harm, social media should be used carefully. 56．What decides how big a role social media plays for teenagers? 57．What great things has the internet done in recent years? 58．Why may social media be harmful to teenagers’ mental health? 59．What is a wise way for teenagers to use social media? Why? (Please give two reasons.) 【答案】56．How teenagers choose to use it. 57．It has brought people closer together, helped form big communities and can be a place to find support and connection. 58．Because teens can be exposed to harmful content and constantly compare themselves to others. 59．Use it intentionally. Because purposeful use can improve mental health and help avoid negative effects such as harmful content or endless self-comparison. 【导语】本文主要讲述了社交媒体对青少年心理健康的影响，并就青少年如何明智地使用社交媒体提出了建议。 【详解】56．第一段说明了社交媒体在青少年生活中扮演的角色大小的决定因素是“depends on how teenagers choose to use it”如何选择使用社交媒体。因此答案是原文直接信息。 57．第二段讲述了互联网的多种积极作用“It has brought people closer together… helped people form big communities…can be an important place for people to find support and connection”。答案几乎是原文引述。 58．此答案是对第三段和第四段信息的概括总结。第三段“But some teens can be exposed to content that is harmful or upsetting.”和第四段“…constantly comparing themselves to others”分别表达了社交媒体对青少年心理健康的危害主要源于接触有害内容和持续的自我比较。 59．开放题，答案不唯一。第六段提到Whitlock认为社交媒体使用需要有意识，即有目标地使用，而不是用来消磨时间或娱乐“social media use needs to be intentional...for some purposeful goal, not just to pass the time or as entertainment”。原因部分需结合文中提到的维护心理健康（第八段）、社交媒体可能带来的负面内容（第三段）以及自我比较（第四段）等，合理即可。 六．书面表达（10分） 60．现在越来越多的年轻人十分热衷于传承中国文化，主要体现在书法篆刻，绘画，戏剧，服装，烹饪，刺绣，剪纸，泥塑等方面。他们用有趣潮流的方式表达着对传统文化的热爱。请你根据以下要点提示，以“How to Pass Down Chinese Traditional Culture”为题，写一篇英语短文。 1. 阐述传承中国传统文化的原因 它是中国人的骄傲，有着悠久历史；它对世界文化有着极大的影响。 2. 说明传承传统文化的方法 我们要保护文化遗产，并且用现代方式介绍中国文化，例如利用社交媒体平台推广；用英语讲中国传统故事。 3. 介绍一种自己最喜欢的传统文化 包括名称、材料、传承方法等 4. 总结 大家都应参与其中。让世界上越来越多的人能够理解并且热爱中国文化。 注意：1. 词数80词左右（开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数）； 2. 可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯； 3. 不能出现自己的真实信息。 参考词汇：社交媒体social media；推广promote；元素element How to Pass Down Chinese Traditional Culture Chinese traditional culture is very rich and colorful, and there are many forms with Chinese elements. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________【答案】范文： How to Pass Down Chinese Traditional Culture Chinese traditional culture is very rich and colorful, and there are many forms with Chinese elements.
