They can teach us important lessons about life if we take the time to observe them. My grandfather often told me that we should learn from nature. He said, “Every plant has a secret to 16________.” Bamboo is one of my favourite examples. It grows very tall and is 17________ enough to survive strong winds and typhoons. What’s more surprising is that bamboo is hollow inside. It looks 18________ on the outside, but it has a strong inner structure. This reminds me that we should not 19________ a book by its cover. A person may look simple or ordinary, but they can have extraordinary 20________ inside. Another plant I admire is the lotus flower. It grows in muddy water, yet it produces beautiful, clean blossoms. The lotus shows us that no matter where we come from or what 21________ we face, we can still grow into something beautiful. We don’t have to let our 22________ define us. We can rise above our circumstances. Cacti are remarkable plants too. They live in the desert where water is 23________. To survive, cacti store water in their thick stems and use it very 24________ during long dry periods. This teaches us the importance of 25. We should learn to manage our resources wisely and not waste what we have. My grandfather used to plant these flowers in our garden. He would say, “Watch how they grow. They don’t rush. They don’t 26________. They just grow at their own 27________. That’s what we should do too.” I think he was right. In today’s fast-paced world, we often feel pressured to succeed quickly. But plants teach us that growth takes time. The best things in life — friendship, skill, character — cannot be 28________ overnight. They require patience, effort, and perseverance. I have started keeping a small garden in my balcony. Every morning, I 29________ the plants and observe their progress. It’s a small reminder that life, like plants, is a journey of growth. Each stage has its own beauty and purpose. We don’t all grow at the same speed, and that’s perfectly 30________. 1. A. study　　B. share　　C. hide　　D. discover 【答案】B 【解析】share 意为”分享”，每个植物都有秘密可以分享。 1.

I was certain I would become a doctor, get married young, and live happily ever after. But life had other plans for me. My first year at medical school was a disaster. I failed three courses and barely passed the others. I was miserable. I thought I had wasted my time and disappointed my parents. I wanted to quit, but my mother said, “You don’t have to have everything figured out right now. Take a break and think about what makes you happy.” So I did. I took a semester off and travelled to a small village in Yunnan Province. I worked as a volunteer teacher at a local primary school. The children there had almost no resources — no textbooks, no computers, not even enough chairs. But they were the happiest kids I had ever met. They laughed, played, and learned with such enthusiasm that I found myself smiling again. One day, a little girl asked me, “Teacher, what does your heart want to do?” I was stunned. I had never asked myself that question. I had been so focused on meeting others’ expectations that I had forgotten what I truly wanted. I stayed in the village for another six months. When I returned home, I transferred to the education programme. I am now training to become a primary school teacher. I may not earn as much money as a doctor, but I wake up every morning feeling excited about the day ahead. My journey taught me that self-discovery is not a one-time event. It’s a lifelong process. We change, grow, and learn new things about ourselves every day. It’s okay not to have all the answers. What matters is that we keep asking the questions and have the courage to follow our hearts. 1.

Interesting — they made many friends 【答案】B 【解析】细节理解题。由第二段”I failed three courses and barely passed the others”可知。 1. Why did the author take a semester off? A. To travel abroad with family B. To recover from an illness C. To volunteer and see what they wanted D. To prepare for entrance exams 【答案】C 【解析】细节理解题。由第三段”I took a semester off and travelled to a small village”可知。 1. What did the little girl’s question make the author realise? A. That they should work harder B. That they had forgotten their true passion C. That teaching is more important than medicine D. That children can be wiser than adults 【答案】B 【解析】推理判断题。由第四段”I had been so focused on meeting others’ expectations that I had forgotten what I truly wanted”可知。 1. What is the main message of the passage? A. Medical school is too difficult for most people B. Children in rural areas need more help C. Self-discovery is a lifelong journey, not a one-time event D. Parents should choose careers for their children 【答案】C 【解析】主旨大意题。文章主题是自我发现是终身的旅程。 C（共4小题；每小题2分，满分8分） The Science of Happiness What makes people truly happy? This question has puzzled philosophers for centuries, but now scientists are finding some surprising answers. According to recent research, happiness depends less on external circumstances than we might think. Studies show that after people reach a basic level of financial security, additional money does not significantly increase their happiness. A person earning ￥100,000 per year is not much happier than someone earning ￥50,000, as long as both can afford their basic needs. This finding challenges the common belief that wealth equals happiness. Instead, researchers have identified three factors that consistently lead to greater happiness: relationships, experiences, and purpose. Relationships: People who have strong social connections — with family, friends, and community — are happier than those who are socially isolated. A study from Harvard University followed a group of people for 80 years and found that the quality of relationships was the strongest predictor of happiness and health in later life. Experiences: Spending money on experiences (travel, concerts, courses) brings more lasting happiness than spending it on material possessions. A new car gives a temporary boost, but people quickly adapt to it. A trip to a new place creates memories that continue to bring joy for years. Purpose: Having a sense of purpose in life — feeling that what you do matters — is essential for long-term happiness. This doesn’t mean you need to change the world. Purpose can come from raising a family, doing meaningful work, or contributing to your community. The good news is that happiness is not fixed. We can increase it by investing in relationships, seeking out new experiences, and finding purpose in our daily lives. Happiness is not a destination — it’s a journey we can choose to take every day. 1. What did the Harvard study find after following people for 80 years? A. That wealth was the key to happiness B. That relationships were the best sign of happiness. C. That people became less happy as they aged D. That fame and success were more important than love 【答案】B 【解析】细节理解题。由第三段”the quality of relationships was the strongest predictor of happiness”可知。 1. Why do experiences bring more lasting happiness than possessions? A. Because experiences are cheaper B. Because people can show off their experiences C. Because people make more friends through experiences D. Because people adjust to new things fast but memories last 【答案】D 【解析】细节理解题。由第五段”people quickly adapt to new possessions but memories endure”可知。 1. What does the author say about having a sense of purpose? A. Only famous people can find purpose B. Purpose is only found in careers C. Purpose can come from many aspects of life D. Purpose is something you are born with 【答案】C 【解析】推理判断题。由第六段”Purpose can come from raising a family, doing meaningful work, or contributing to your community”可知。 1. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Money is the most important factor for happiness B. Happiness depends entirely on external circumstances C. Scientific research reveals the key factors to happiness D. Philosophers have all the answers about happiness 【答案】C 【解析】主旨大意题。文章主题是科学研究揭示持久幸福的关键因素。 D（共4小题；每小题2分，满分8分） The Art of Patience In our modern world, patience seems to be disappearing. We want everything instantly — instant coffee, instant noodles, instant information. We get frustrated when a website takes more than two seconds to load or when we have to wait in line for more than five minutes. But patience is actually a valuable skill that can improve many aspects of our lives. Learning to wait is difficult, especially for teenagers who are used to getting what they want quickly. But practicing patience can bring surprising benefits. Students who are patient tend to perform better on exams because they take their time and avoid careless mistakes. People who are patient in relationships have stronger bonds because they listen more and react less. Even physical health can improve — studies show that impatient people have higher blood pressure and are more prone to stress-related illnesses. Patience is especially important when learning new skills. Mastering a musical instrument, a new language, or a sport requires months or even years of practice. Without patience, many people would give up before they see results. The great violinist Itzhak Perlman once said, “If you want to build a violin, you don’t start with the strings — you start with the wood.” This reminds us that good things take time and that we need to trust the process. One way to develop patience is to practice mindfulness — paying attention to the present moment without judgment. When we focus on what is happening now instead of worrying about the future or regretting the past, we naturally slow down and become more patient. Simple activities like breathing exercises or meditation can help train our minds to be more patient. Patience is not about doing nothing or being passive. It’s about recognising that some things take time and being willing to wait for them. It’s about having faith in the process, even when we can’t see the end result. In a world that values speed, patience is a rare and precious quality. Those who master it will find that it enriches every area of their lives. 1. What does the passage suggest about patience in modern society? A. It is becoming more common B. It is fading as people want results at once C. It is only important for older people D. It is no longer a valuable skill 【答案】B 【解析】细节理解题。由第一段”patience seems to be disappearing. We want everything instantly”可知。 1. What benefit of patience is mentioned for students? A. They get better grades on tests B. They make more friends C. They learn musical instruments faster D. They have better physical health 【答案】A 【解析】细节理解题。由第二段”Students who are patient tend to perform better on exams”可知。 1. What does Itzhak Perlman’s quote about building a violin mean? A. Violins are difficult to build B. You need good materials to build anything C. Great achievements require time and patience. D. Music is the most important art form 【答案】C 【解析】推理判断题。由第三段”good things take time and that we need to trust the process”可知。 1. What is the main idea of the passage? A. People should reject modern technology B. Patience is a skill that must be cultivated through practice. C. Teenagers are naturally more patient than adults D. Speed is more important than quality 【答案】B 【解析】主旨大意题。文章主题是耐心是需要练习的宝贵技能。 四、词汇运用（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分） 用括号内所给单词的正确形式填空。 1.

In my opinion, a meaningful life is not about how much money you earn or how famous you become. It’s about making a positive difference in the lives of others. My neighbour, Grandpa Li, lives such a life. He is an ordinary retired teacher, but he tutors students from poor families for free every weekend. He has been doing this for over ten years. He never expects anything in return. When I asked him why he does it, he said, “Education can change lives. If I can help just one child, my life has meaning.” Grandpa Li’s example teaches me that meaning doesn’t come from grand achievements. It comes from the small, consistent acts of kindness. I have made up my mind to volunteer at the local library this summer, helping children with their reading. I may not change the world, but I can make a small difference in someone’s life. And that, to me, is what makes life meaningful. 评分标准 · 优秀（17-20分）： 内容完整，覆盖全部要点；语言流畅，句式多样；有个人观点表达 · 良好（13-16分）： 内容较完整，覆盖大部分要点；语言基本准确；有少量语法错误 · 合格（9-12分）： 内容基本完整，覆盖部分要点；语言较简单；语法错误较多 · 待加强（5-8分）： 内容不完整，遗漏多个要点；语言表达不清楚 · 较差（0-4分）： 内容无关或严重缺失，无法阅读 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 译林2026版九年级上册 Unit 4 单元测试卷 考试时间：90分钟　满分：120分 一、单项选择（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 1.

They can teach us important lessons about life if we take the time to observe them. My grandfather often told me that we should learn from nature. He said, “Every plant has a secret to 16________.” Bamboo is one of my favourite examples. It grows very tall and is 17________ enough to survive strong winds and typhoons. What’s more surprising is that bamboo is hollow inside. It looks 18________ on the outside, but it has a strong inner structure. This reminds me that we should not 19________ a book by its cover. A person may look simple or ordinary, but they can have extraordinary 20________ inside. Another plant I admire is the lotus flower. It grows in muddy water, yet it produces beautiful, clean blossoms. The lotus shows us that no matter where we come from or what 21________ we face, we can still grow into something beautiful. We don’t have to let our 22________ define us. We can rise above our circumstances. Cacti are remarkable plants too. They live in the desert where water is 23________. To survive, cacti store water in their thick stems and use it very 24________ during long dry periods. This teaches us the importance of 25. We should learn to manage our resources wisely and not waste what we have. My grandfather used to plant these flowers in our garden. He would say, “Watch how they grow. They don’t rush. They don’t 26________. They just grow at their own 27________. That’s what we should do too.” I think he was right. In today’s fast-paced world, we often feel pressured to succeed quickly. But plants teach us that growth takes time. The best things in life — friendship, skill, character — cannot be 28________ overnight. They require patience, effort, and perseverance. I have started keeping a small garden in my balcony. Every morning, I 29________ the plants and observe their progress. It’s a small reminder that life, like plants, is a journey of growth. Each stage has its own beauty and purpose. We don’t all grow at the same speed, and that’s perfectly 30________. 1. A. study　　B. share　　C. hide　　D. discover 1.

I was certain I would become a doctor, get married young, and live happily ever after. But life had other plans for me. My first year at medical school was a disaster. I failed three courses and barely passed the others. I was miserable. I thought I had wasted my time and disappointed my parents. I wanted to quit, but my mother said, “You don’t have to have everything figured out right now. Take a break and think about what makes you happy.” So I did. I took a semester off and travelled to a small village in Yunnan Province. I worked as a volunteer teacher at a local primary school. The children there had almost no resources — no textbooks, no computers, not even enough chairs. But they were the happiest kids I had ever met. They laughed, played, and learned with such enthusiasm that I found myself smiling again. One day, a little girl asked me, “Teacher, what does your heart want to do?” I was stunned. I had never asked myself that question. I had been so focused on meeting others’ expectations that I had forgotten what I truly wanted. I stayed in the village for another six months. When I returned home, I transferred to the education programme. I am now training to become a primary school teacher. I may not earn as much money as a doctor, but I wake up every morning feeling excited about the day ahead. My journey taught me that self-discovery is not a one-time event. It’s a lifelong process. We change, grow, and learn new things about ourselves every day. It’s okay not to have all the answers. What matters is that we keep asking the questions and have the courage to follow our hearts. 1. What was the author’s first year at medical school like? A. Excellent — they topped all their classes B. Difficult — they didn’t pass three courses C. Average — they passed everything easily D. Interesting — they made many friends 1. Why did the author take a semester off? A. To travel abroad with family B. To recover from an illness C. To volunteer and see what they wanted D. To prepare for entrance exams 1. What did the little girl’s question make the author realise? A. That they should work harder B. That they had forgotten their true passion C. That teaching is more important than medicine D. That children can be wiser than adults 1. What is the main message of the passage? A. Medical school is too difficult for most people B. Children in rural areas need more help C. Self-discovery is a lifelong journey, not a one-time event D. Parents should choose careers for their children C（共4小题；每小题2分，满分8分） The Science of Happiness What makes people truly happy? This question has puzzled philosophers for centuries, but now scientists are finding some surprising answers. According to recent research, happiness depends less on external circumstances than we might think. Studies show that after people reach a basic level of financial security, additional money does not significantly increase their happiness. A person earning ￥100,000 per year is not much happier than someone earning ￥50,000, as long as both can afford their basic needs. This finding challenges the common belief that wealth equals happiness. Instead, researchers have identified three factors that consistently lead to greater happiness: relationships, experiences, and purpose. Relationships: People who have strong social connections — with family, friends, and community — are happier than those who are socially isolated. A study from Harvard University followed a group of people for 80 years and found that the quality of relationships was the strongest predictor of happiness and health in later life. Experiences: Spending money on experiences (travel, concerts, courses) brings more lasting happiness than spending it on material possessions. A new car gives a temporary boost, but people quickly adapt to it. A trip to a new place creates memories that continue to bring joy for years. Purpose: Having a sense of purpose in life — feeling that what you do matters — is essential for long-term happiness. This doesn’t mean you need to change the world. Purpose can come from raising a family, doing meaningful work, or contributing to your community. The good news is that happiness is not fixed. We can increase it by investing in relationships, seeking out new experiences, and finding purpose in our daily lives. Happiness is not a destination — it’s a journey we can choose to take every day. 38. What did the Harvard study find after following people for 80 years? A. That wealth was the key to happiness B. That relationships were the best sign of happiness. C. That people became less happy as they aged D. That fame and success were more important than love 39. Why do experiences bring more lasting happiness than possessions? A. Because experiences are cheaper B. Because people can show off their experiences C. Because people make more friends through experiences D. Because people adjust to new things fast but memories last 40. What does the author say about having a sense of purpose? A. Only famous people can find purpose B. Purpose is only found in careers C. Purpose can come from many aspects of life D. Purpose is something you are born with 41. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Money is the most important factor for happiness B. Happiness depends entirely on external circumstances C. Scientific research reveals the key factors to happiness D. Philosophers have all the answers about happiness D（共4小题；每小题2分，满分8分） The Art of Patience In our modern world, patience seems to be disappearing. We want everything instantly — instant coffee, instant noodles, instant information. We get frustrated when a website takes more than two seconds to load or when we have to wait in line for more than five minutes. But patience is actually a valuable skill that can improve many aspects of our lives. Learning to wait is difficult, especially for teenagers who are used to getting what they want quickly. But practicing patience can bring surprising benefits. Students who are patient tend to perform better on exams because they take their time and avoid careless mistakes. People who are patient in relationships have stronger bonds because they listen more and react less. Even physical health can improve — studies show that impatient people have higher blood pressure and are more prone to stress-related illnesses. Patience is especially important when learning new skills. Mastering a musical instrument, a new language, or a sport requires months or even years of practice. Without patience, many people would give up before they see results. The great violinist Itzhak Perlman once said, “If you want to build a violin, you don’t start with the strings — you start with the wood.” This reminds us that good things take time and that we need to trust the process. One way to develop patience is to practice mindfulness — paying attention to the present moment without judgment. When we focus on what is happening now instead of worrying about the future or regretting the past, we naturally slow down and become more patient. Simple activities like breathing exercises or meditation can help train our minds to be more patient. Patience is not about doing nothing or being passive. It’s about recognising that some things take time and being willing to wait for them. It’s about having faith in the process, even when we can’t see the end result. In a world that values speed, patience is a rare and precious quality. Those who master it will find that it enriches every area of their lives. 1. What does the passage suggest about patience in modern society? A. It is becoming more common B. It is fading as people want results at once C. It is only important for older people D. It is no longer a valuable skill 1. What benefit of patience is mentioned for students? A. They get better grades on tests B. They make more friends C. They learn musical instruments faster D. They have better physical health 1. What does Itzhak Perlman’s quote about building a violin mean? A. Violins are difficult to build B. You need good materials to build anything C. Great achievements require time and patience. D. Music is the most important art form 1. What is the main idea of the passage? A. People should reject modern technology B. Patience is a skill that must be cultivated through practice. C. Teenagers are naturally more patient than adults D. Speed is more important than quality 四、词汇运用（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分） 用括号内所给单词的正确形式填空。 1. One of the most important life skills is learning how to ______ (patience) in difficult situations. 1.
