精品解析：江苏省沭阳县如东城区2025-2026学年九年级上学期初中联考12月份英语试卷

2025~2026学年度第一学期第四次定时作业 初三年级英语学科 一、单项填空（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） 从A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 1. —$40 together, please! 10% will be added to your bill for ________. —All right, thanks. A. help B. support C. service D. change 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：——一共40美元！10%将添加到您的服务账单中。——好的，谢谢。 考查名词辨析。help帮助；support支持；service服务；change零钱。根据“10% will be added to your bill”可知，此处指餐厅常见的服务费。故选C。 2. If you see anything unusual, please contact ________ the police ________ 33309843. A. on; on B. with; on C. /; on D. with; with 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：如果你看到任何不寻常的事情，请拨打33309843与警察联系。 contact是及物动词，后面直接接宾语，无需介词，故第一空不填；on后接电话号码表示联系方式。应选/; on。 3. My new pen ________. I have looked for it everywhere but still ________ it. A. lose; don’t find B. is missing; doesn’t find C. lose; haven’t found D. is missing; haven’t found 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：我的新钢笔不见了。我已经到处找它了，但仍然没有找到它。 lose丢失；is missing不见了。第一空主语是“My new pen”，lose是及物动词，钢笔不能发出“丢失”的动作，应用is missing表示“不见了”的状态，排除A、C；第二空根据前句“have looked”可知应用现在完成时，强调对现在的影响，应用haven’t found。 4. They did all they could, but the result did not ________ to be as good as they expected. A. run out B. find out C. turn out D. break out 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：他们尽了最大努力，但结果并不像他们预期的那么好。 考查动词短语辨析。run out用完；find out查明；turn out结果是；break out爆发。根据“the result did not...to be as good as they expected”可知，此处说的是结果不是他们预期的那么好，“turn out to be”意为“结果是”，符合语境。故选C。 5. —Listen! There's someone knocking at the door. — Oh, _________ must be Jim. It's time for him to get home now. A. he B. this C. it D. that 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：——听！有人正在敲门。——哦，一定是Jim。现在是他到家的时间了。 考查人称代词。he他，主格；this这个；it它；that那个，根据当不确定性别时，可以用it代指人，故选C。 6. Though the temperature ________ a lot in the daytime , we still felt a bit cold. A. raised B. rose C. fell D. dropped 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：虽然白天气温升高了很多，但我们还是觉得有点冷。 考查动词辨析。raised（原形raise）举起，上升（强调人为因素），是及物动词，后面要加宾语；rose（原形rise）升高，上升（强调事物自身），是不及物动词，后面不加宾语；fell（原形fall）落下，跌倒；dropped（原形drop）落下，下降。此处表示气温升高了但还是冷，应用不及物动词rose，指气温自然上升。故选B。 7. Li Ming says he loves singers ________ their own music. A. whom writes B. that writes C. whose write D. who write 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：李明说他喜欢自己写音乐的歌手。 考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知，此处是定语从句，从句缺少主语，且先行词singers指人，所以用关系代词who引导定语从句，排除A和C；又因为关系代词在从句中作主语时，其谓语动词的单复数应与先行词保持一致，先行词singers是复数，所以谓语动词用原形write，排除B。故选D。 8. David was charged robbing a bank. In fact, he wasn't guilty it. A. of; with B. of ; of C. with; of D. with; with 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意“大卫被指控抢劫银行，但事实上，他是无罪的”。本题考查动词的固定搭配。be charge with被指控；be guilty of犯罪。根据句意，故选C。 9. The kidnapping in West Town between 8 p. m. and 9 p. m. yesterday. A. took place; sometimes B. was taken place; some time C. was happened; some times D. happened; sometime 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：这起绑架昨天晚上8点到9点之间的某个时候发生在西城。took place发生，是过去式形式；was taken place是被动语态，形式错误，take place和happen都是发生的意思，都不能用于被动语态，故排除B 和C。sometimes有时候；some time一段时间；some times一些次；sometime某时。根据句意可知，绑架发生的时候并不是很确定，所以是8点到9点之间的某个时候，故应选D。 10. —This TV play is really boring. — ________. You will find it more and more interesting as the story goes on. A. I can’t agree more B. That’s true C. I don’t think so D. Of course it is 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：——这部电视剧真的很无聊。——我不这样认为。随着故事的发展，你将发现它越来越有趣。 考查情景交际。I can’t agree more我很同意；That’s true那是真的；I don’t think so我不这样认为；Of course it is当然它是。根据“This TV play is really boring.”和“You will find it more and more interesting as the story goes on.”可知，前文和后文是相反的意思，故空处应填写转折I don’t think so。故选C。 二、完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给各题的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Tim had always struggled with his weight.

One day, a group of his classmates decided to play a ____12____ on him. They secretly entered him for the school’s long-distance race. They thought it would be fun to watch him ____13____. On the race day, as Tim was about to ____14____ his classmates to watch the race in the stands (看台) , he saw some of them holding posters of his face with big words “The Big Runner” and “Go Tim”.

C 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述体重超标的Tim被同学捉弄参加长跑，但他坚持跑完全程，最终赢得尊重，证明了力量源于内心。 【11题详解】 句意：每天，他都希望自己能像其他孩子一样，跑得快，轻松地参加体育运动，但这似乎总是遥不可及。 前文交代Tim受体重困扰，but转折说明“像普通孩子一样运动”，这对他是困难的，所以他希望像别人一样“轻松地”（easily）做运动。safely“安全地”，quickly“快速地”，properly“适当地”均不符合此处对比困难的语境。 【12题详解】 句意：有一天，他的一群同学决定捉弄他。 play a trick on sb为固定搭配，“捉弄某人”；后文“They secretly entered him for the school’s long‑distance race”印证同学在捉弄他。game“游戏”，part“部分”，record“记录”无此搭配且不符语境。 【13题详解】 句意：他们觉得看他失败会很有趣。 同学捉弄Tim，偷偷给他报名长跑，内心想看他比赛失利（fail）出糗。cry“哭泣”，smile“微笑”，succeed“成功”不符合捉弄者的恶意心理。 【14题详解】 句意：比赛那天，正当Tim准备和同学们一起在看台观看比赛时，他看见一些同学举着印有他头像的海报。 根据“to watch the race in the stands”可知，他原本打算作为观众“加入”同学们。join sb表示“和某人一起、加入某人”。find“找到”，cheer“欢呼”，help“帮助”不符合此时他作为旁观者的身份。 【15题详解】 句意：他僵在那里，感到十分尴尬。 知道自己被算计被迫参赛，“He froze there”体现Tim难堪窘迫的情绪，embarrassed意为“尴尬的”，符合语境。relaxed“放松的”，excited“兴奋的”，disappointed“失望的”不能准确表达当众被捉弄的心情。 【16题详解】 句意：比赛开始，令所有人惊讶的是，Tim开始慢跑起来。 大家原本以为他不会跑或跑不下来，结果他开始跑了，这一情况让大家感到“惊讶”。to everyone’s surprise固定短语，意为“令所有人惊讶的是”。joy“喜悦”，shame“羞愧”，anger“愤怒”不符语境。 【17题详解】 句意：他一直向前移动，尽管他几乎跟不上其他赛跑选手。 他坚持前进，虽然跟不上其他人，前后存在让步关系。though引导让步状语从句，表示“尽管”。since表原因/自从，when表时间，until表直到无法引导让步状语从句。 【18题详解】 句意：随着比赛继续，事情发生了变化。 下文“A few students started cheering for him”说明同学们的态度发生转变（changed）。stopped“停止”，worked“起作用”，disappeared“消失”不符合气氛转变的语境。 【19题详解】 句意：他们的鼓励让Tim感觉轻松了许多。 原本Tim窘迫难堪，听到大家加油后心理负担减轻。lighter表示“更轻松的”，符合语境。healthier“更健康的”，luckier“更幸运的”，cooler“更酷的”均不如lighter能体现心理负担的减轻。 【20题详解】 句意：比赛不再关乎输赢，而是向自己证明他可以跑完。 Tim坚持跑下去的目的是“证明”自己有能力完成比赛。prove to oneself表示“向自己证明”。suggesting“建议”，explaining“解释”，promising“承诺”不符合通过行动展示能力的语境。 【21题详解】 句意：当他冲过终点线时，他倒在地上，完全喘不上气。 此处描述他“穿过”终点线这一动作，cross the finish line固定表达，“冲过终点线”。saw“看见”，missed“错过”，left“离开”不符合完成比赛的动作描述。 【22题详解】 句意：曾经嘲笑他的同学们，现在都在鼓掌，呼喊他的名字。 前文同学们捉弄他、叫他“Big Tim”等内容可知，曾经同学们是“嘲笑”他的，laughed at“嘲笑”符合语境。argued with“与……争吵”，competed with“与……竞争”，cared about“关心”不符合前文关系。 【23题详解】 句意：他没有赢得比赛这件事已经不重要。 后句“He had finished”强调完成比赛的意义，与之对比，说明是否“赢得”比赛不重要，won“赢得”符合语境。entered“报名参加”，completed“完成”，watched“观看”均与后文 finished构不成转折对比。 【24题详解】 句意：他坚持跑完比赛，这远超他从前认为自己有可能做到的事。 根据他完成比赛这件事超出了他之前认为自己能做到的“可能性”范围，possible“可能的”符合语境。necessary“必要的”，interesting“有趣的”，important“重要的”不符合自我认知突破的语境。 【25题详解】 句意：Tim向所有人证明力量不在于体型——而在于内心。 根据前文围绕他因体重问题被捉弄展开可知，这里说的是力量不是由“体型”决定的，size“体型”符合语境。speed“速度”，height“身高”，time“时间”与文章核心冲突且与体重无关。 三、阅读理解（共20小题；26-40小题，每小题2分；41-45小题，每小题1分，满分35分） 阅读下列材料，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项。 A Come One, Come All, to the Amazing Maize Maze! Make your way through a cornfield that has been transformed into a living maze for all ages. Our cornstalks tower 6 feet (2m) high, making this maze a real challenge! Find a way through the maze alone, or use a whistle to call a trained guide to help you through it. Attention: children under 10 CAN’T explore alone! Over 16: $20 Under 16: half price Save 10% if you buy more than one ticket at a time! √Take Bus 7 or 36 to Polk Road. √Self-drive (The signs on McClintock will help you) Word Bank: 1. transform: 改变; 2. cornstalk: 玉米秆; 3. whistle: 口哨 26. The reading material above is a (n) ________. A. test paper B. map C. notice D. advertisement 27. Amy, a 13-year-old girl, wants to take part in the activity with her mother. How much should they pay? A. $27. B. $30. C. $18. D. $40. 28. What can we learn from the text? A. Mike aged 8 can play the game himself. B. There are 3 buses to the Maze. C. High cornstalks make the maze difficult. D. It’s better to find our way alone. 【答案】26. D 27. A 28. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文，主要讲述了神奇玉米迷宫活动的详细信息，包括迷宫的特点、票价优惠、年龄限制及交通方式。 【26题详解】 本文介绍了玉米迷宫游玩项目的特色、票价、出行方式，目的是吸引游客前来参与，属于宣传招揽顾客的广告。 【27题详解】 根据票价规则“Over 16: $20 Under 16: half price Save 10% if you buy more than one ticket at a time!”可知16岁以上票价20美元，16岁以下是半价，也就是10美元。13岁的Amy票价10美元，成年妈妈票价20美元，总价原本是30美元，同时规则说明一次性买多张票可以减10%，30美元优惠10%后最终支付27美元。 【28题详解】 根据原文内容“Our cornstalks tower 6 feet (2m) high, making this maze a real challenge!”可知两米高的玉米秆让迷宫变得很有难度。 B Have you ever noticed a mirror (镜子) in a lift? Next time you take it, look closely! It’s not there without a reason! It does amazing things when the lift moves. Let’s find out about it! A lift is a small, closed place. There isn’t much fresh air inside. For some people, being in a lift might make them feel scared or uneasy. They may even breathe fast sometimes. They can’t see what’s happening outside as the lift doors close and it starts moving. When they look at the mirror in the lift, it can make them feel there is more space and it can help to reduce worry. The mirror in the lift also helps you see what others are doing. For example, you can see others’ facial expressions and what their hands are doing. This makes you feel safer too. Because of this, it can help stop someone from stealing. It’s easy to get bored in a lift, especially when it stops often. So the mirror is a great way to have fun. You can fix your hair in the mirror. Or you can quickly check if your clothes are tidy. Without a mirror, everyone would have to stare (盯着) at the floor. When you “play” with the mirror, time passes quickly. You don’t feel like you are wasting your time in the lift. 29. Why is the mirror helpful for some people in the lift? A. It reduces their worry. B. It provides fresh air. C. It makes doors open fast. D. It shows floor numbers. 30. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 3 refer to? A. The closed lift. B. The mirror in the lift. C. Someone who steals. D. Others’ facial expressions. 31. When do people easily feel bored in the lift? A. When there’s light. B. When doors are open. C. When it stops often. D. When it moves slowly. 32. What is the main purpose of writing this text? A. To tell why there are mirrors in lifts. B. To recommend places to put mirrors. C. To explain the problem of small lift space. D. To teach people how to use mirrors in lifts. 【答案】29. A 30. B 31. C 32. A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了电梯里安装镜子的原因和功能，包括减少乘客的焦虑感、增加安全感、防止偷窃以及帮助消磨时间。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。 根据“When they look at the mirror in the lift, it can make them feel there is more space and it can help to reduce worry.”可知，镜子能减轻人们在电梯里的焦虑。故选A。 【30题详解】 词句猜测题。 根据“The mirror in the lift also helps you see what others are doing…Because of this, it can help stop someone from stealing.”可知，此处的“it”指代前文提到的镜子。故选B。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。 根据“It’s easy to get bored in a lift, especially when it stops often.”可知，电梯频繁停靠时人们容易感到无聊。故选C。 【32题详解】 主旨大意题。 通读全文，文章开头提出问题“电梯里为什么有镜子？”，接着各段分别说明了镜子的作用：减轻焦虑、增加安全感、防止偷窃、消磨时间。因此，本文的主要写作目的是解释电梯里安装镜子的原因。故选A。 C Are you feeling lonely and in need of a companion (伙伴)? Do you want a friend who can be with you anytime, anywhere? Meet Friend, a new wearable AI companion that you wear around your neck, can help. Meet Friend comes at a time when more and more people feel lonely. Studies show that 6.1% of young people in the US feel very lonely. Meet Friend’s founder (创始人), Schiffmann says their product doesn’t mean to take the place of real friends. Instead, it can help when you can’t be with people. People have different opinions about AI friends. Some, like Schiffmann, believe they can help with loneliness. But others worry that if people depend too much on AI for company, they might stop trying to make real human friends, which could make them feel even lonelier in the long run. ________ Drake Maples at Stanford University surveyed more than 1,000 students who used the AI chatbot Replika and studied their feelings of loneliness and social support. About half of these users reported reduced anxiety and a feeling of social support. Nearly a quarter of those surveyed said they are more able to deal with stress in their relationship because of Replika’s advice. It is still a new field though, and Drake Maples says there needs to be guidelines. “I strongly believe that you do need to have guidelines around AI companions pushing people back towards human relationships when suitable,” she says. These could be gentle reminders like “Hey, you should go chat with somebody about that” or “Go practice this now with a real human.” 33. What is Meet Friend aimed at? A. Taking the place of real humans. B. Increasing the productivity at work. C. Offering a new way to connect. D. Examining mental illness early. 34. Which sentence can be put in the ________? A. As a result, studies have shown that this worry is completely reasonable. B. However, research on actual user experiences tells a different story. C. Because of this, most people have now stopped worrying about the problem. D. Unluckily, this fear has prevented students from trying AI friends. 35. Which of the following best describes the “guideline” suggested by Drake Maples? A. Rules that stop people from using their AI friend for too long. B. Advice that encourages people to talk to other humans. C. Instructions to make sure that the AI product works safely. D. Warnings that tell people AI friends are bad. 36. Who in the following poems needs Meet Friend most? A. 举杯邀明月，对影成三人。 B. 海内存知己，天涯若比邻。 C. 劝君更尽一杯酒，西出阳关无故人。 D. 桃花潭水深千尺，不及汪伦送我情。 【答案】33. C 34. B 35. B 36. A 【解析】 【导语】本文探讨了AI陪伴产品在缓解人类孤独感方面的积极作用与潜在隐患，并强调AI应作为辅助，最终目的是引导人们回归真实的人际交往。 【33题详解】 根据第二段中“Schiffmann says their product doesn’t mean to take the place of real friends. Instead, it can help when you can’t be with people.”可知，这款产品并不取代真实朋友，而是给孤独的人们提供陪伴，也就是提供一种新的连接方式。 【34题详解】 第三段末尾“But others worry that if people depend too much on AI for company, they might stop trying to make real human friends, which could make them feel even lonelier in the long run.”提到人们担心过度依赖AI会让人更孤独；第四段空白后引用的研究结果显示用户焦虑减少、获得了社会支持，这与之前的担心相反。因此空白处需要表示转折的句子，B选项“However, research on actual user experiences tells a different story.”符合上下文逻辑。 【35题详解】 根据最后一段“...pushing people back towards human relationships...Go practice this now with a real human”可知，Drake Maples建议的准则是鼓励人们去和真人交流。 【36题详解】 “举杯邀明月，对影成三人”描述的是诗人非常孤独，只能和月亮、影子作伴的状态，最需要随时相伴的AI伙伴。 D The Marionette, as soon as his hunger was appeased (平息), started to grumble and cry that he wanted a new pair of feet. But Mastro Geppetto, in order to punish him for his mischief (淘气), let him alone the whole morning. After dinner, he said to him: “Why should I make your feet over again? To see you run away from home once more?” “I promise you,” answered the Marionette, sobbing, “that from now on I’ll be good...” “Boys always promise that when they want something,” said Geppetto. “I promise to go to school every day, to study, and to succeed.” “Boys always sing that song when they want their own will.” “But I am not like other boys! I am better than all of them and I always tell the truth. I promise you, Father, that I’ll learn a trade, and I’ll be the comfort and staff of your old age.” Geppetto, though trying to look very stern, felt his eyes fill with tears and his heart soften when he saw Pinocchio so unhappy. He said no more, but taking his tools and two pieces of wood, he set to work diligently. In less than an hour the feet were finished, two slender, nimble little feet, strong and quick, modeled as if by an artist’s hands. “Close your eyes and sleep!” Geppetto then said to the Marionette. Pinocchio closed his eyes and pretended (假装) to be asleep, while Geppetto stuck on the two feet with a bit of glue melted in an eggshell, doing his work so well that the joint could hardly be seen. As soon as the Marionette felt his new feet, he gave one leap from the table and started to skip and jump around, as if he had lost his head from very joy. “To show you how grateful I am to you, Father, I’ll go to school now. But to go to school I need a suit of clothes.” Geppetto did not have a penny in his pocket, so he made his son a little suit of flowered paper, a pair of shoes from the bark of a tree, and a tiny cap from a bit of dough. Pinocchio ran to look at himself in a bowl of water, and he felt so happy that he said proudly: “Now I look like a gentleman.” “Truly,” answered Geppetto. “But remember that fine clothes do not make the man unless they be neat and clean.” “Very true,” answered Pinocchio, “but, in order to go to school, I still need something very important.” “What is it?” “An A-B-C book.” Putting on his old coat, full of darns and patches (补丁), he ran out of the house without another word. After a while he returned. In his hands, he had the A-B-C book for his son, but the old coat was gone. The poor fellow was in his shirt sleeves and the day was cold. “Where’s your coat, Father?” “I have sold it.” “Why did you sell it?” “It’s too warm.” Pinocchio understood the answer in a twinkling, and, unable to restrain his tears, he jumped on his father’s neck and kissed him over and over. ——Adapted from The Adventures of Pinocchio 37. According to the story, which of the following character relationships is correct? A. Geppetto is Marionette’s son. B. Pinocchio is Geppetto’s father. C. Geppetto is Pinocchio’s father. D.

What is the correct order of what happened in the story? a. Geppetto was deeply moved. b. Geppetto made a suit out of paper. c. Marionette cried for a new pair of feet. d. Marionette made promises to be a good man. A. a-c-d-b B. c-b-d-a C. c-d-a-b D. a-d-b-c 40. What can we learn from the story? A. Fathers are always strict with their children. B. Beautiful clothes are the most important thing. C. Parents’ love for their children is selfless. D. Promises are easily made but hard to keep. 【答案】37. C 38. A 39. C 40. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇故事节选，改编自《木偶奇遇记》，主要讲述了木偶匹诺曹向父亲杰佩托索要新脚、承诺变好，杰佩托被感动后为他制作新脚、用纸做衣服，甚至卖掉自己的旧外套为他买识字课本的故事。 【37题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章“ ‘I promise you, Father, that I’ll learn a trade, and I’ll be the comfort and staff of your old age.’ ”以及文章整体内容可知，杰佩托是匹诺曹的父亲。故选C。 【38题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章“Geppetto, though trying to look very stern, felt his eyes fill with tears and his heart soften when he saw Pinocchio so unhappy.”可知，杰佩托虽然努力表现得很严厉，但看到匹诺曹不开心时眼里充满了泪水，心也软了，所以“stern”意为“严肃的”，与“serious”意思相近。故选A。 【39题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“The Marionette, as soon as his hunger was appeased (平息), started to grumble and cry that he wanted a new pair of feet.”，第三段“ ‘I promise you,’ answered the Marionette, sobbing, ‘that from now on I’ll be good...’ ”，第七段“Geppetto, though trying to look very stern, felt his eyes fill with tears and his heart soften when he saw Pinocchio so unhappy.”，第十三段“Geppetto did not have a penny in his pocket, so he made his son a little suit of flowered paper...”可知，事件顺序是：木偶哭着要新脚（c）→木偶承诺做个好人（d）→杰佩托被深深感动（a）→杰佩托用纸做了一套衣服（b）。故选C。 【40题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章“Putting on his old coat, full of darns and patches (补丁), he ran out of the house without another word. After a while he returned. In his hands, he had the A-B-C book for his son, but the old coat was gone.”可知，杰佩托为了给匹诺曹买识字课本卖掉了自己满是补丁的旧外套，由此可看出父母对孩子的爱是无私的。故选C。 第二节（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 Usually great people encourage themselves and everyone around them toward better things.

Do you know the man of ________ (中等的) height? 【答案】medium 【解析】 【详解】句意：你认识那个中等身高的男人吗？固定搭配of medium height意为中等身高，括号内词义“中等的”对应的英文形容词是medium，修饰名词height，符合固定短语搭配的语法规则与句子语义要求。 47. Thanks to the ________ (发明) of ChatGPT, we can search for more useful information effectively. 【答案】invention 【解析】 【详解】句意：多亏了ChatGPT的发明，我们能够高效检索更多有用的信息。空格前有定冠词the，空格后搭配介词of，此处需要名词，括号内中文提示“发明”，对应名词invention。固定搭配：the invention of sth表示“某物的发明”。 48. Astronauts collected Moon rocks to take back to the Earth for ________ (进一步) research. 【答案】further 【解析】 【详解】句意：宇航员们收集了月球岩石带回地球做进一步的研究。further“进一步的”，为形容词，作定语修饰后面的名词“research”。故填further。 49. Nothing is more important than the ________ (安全) of the pupils. 【答案】safety 【解析】 【详解】句意：没有什么比学生们的安全更重要。根据中文提示“安全”可知，此处应用名词safety。定冠词the后需要使用名词，the safety of the pupils意为“学生们的安全”。 50. When travelling to Suqian, I prefer ________ (pay money to use sth for a short time) a bike and ride around the countryside to enjoy the beautiful views. 【答案】to hire 【解析】 【详解】句意：当我去宿迁旅行时，我更喜欢租一辆自行车，骑着自行车绕着乡村欣赏美丽的景色。根据“pay money to use sth for a short time”可知，讲述的是“租用”，hire符合句意；prefer to do sth“更喜欢做某事”，故填to hire。 51. His strange behaviour has made him lots of ________（people who hate you or speak and act against you）. 【答案】enemies 【解析】 【详解】句意：他的古怪行为使他树敌众多。根据提示“people who hate you or speak and act against you讨厌你或对你言行不一的人”可知，此处指的是敌人，表达“敌人”用单词enemy，lots of+可数名词复数，enemy的复数形式为enemies。故填enemies。 52. The victim’s parents are offering a r________ of $100, 000 for useful information. 【答案】 reward##eward 【解析】 【详解】句意：受害者的父母悬赏10万美元征集有效线索。固定搭配：a reward of+金额，表示“一笔……数额的悬赏金”。offer a reward for... 表示“为…… 提供悬赏”。结合首字母r和语境，reward表示“赏金，报酬，悬赏金”，空前有不定冠词a，因此填单数名词，故填reward。 53. The spaceship has already l________ on the Moon. 【答案】 landed##anded 【解析】 【详解】句意：宇宙飞船已经降落在月球上了。句子中“has already”表明是现在完成时，空格处需填入动词过去分词形式。根据语境，动词应表达“着陆、落地”等含义。动词land翻译为“着陆”符合语境，此处需填入其过去分词。故填landed。 五、（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） 阅读短文，用括号内所给词的正确形式填空或填入适当的词，使短文完整。 As ____54____ (teenager) , you have many dreams.

In the UK, 99% of kids aged 8 to 15 play video games. They spend almost 14 hours gaming a week. This information tells us that the benefits and dangers of video games must be carefully considered. For many people, video games are fun. They have bright lights, funny cartoons and exciting stories. Everywhere you look, you can see children playing these games. They play on buses and trains, in restaurants and even at school. Video games are educational too. They make kids think in a creative way, and they have to move their hands and eyes quickly. This can improve the way that a child’s brain works. What’s more, video games make children use their imagination. The player has to do many creative things, like drawing, telling stories and building things. Video games are also good for children to learn about technology because they can learn how computers and other devices work while they play. However, a recent study suggests that video games can also be bad for children. First, children can download many games for free. This means that parents often don’t know if their children are playing violent (暴力的) or scary (恐怖的) games. Second, many children spend too much time playing games on computers, and this can lead to health problems. Third, if children spend too much time playing games instead of doing homework, they can have problems at school and get bad grades. Finally, video games can affect children’s social skills. If children spend too much time playing video games by themselves, they might not learn how to play with their friends. In conclusion, it seems clear that video games have some advantages and some disadvantages. Parents should know what games their children are playing and how much time they spend on them. Parents should also make sure their children get enough exercise and spend time with other children. 64. How long do kids aged 8 to 15 in the UK spend on video games a week? _______________________________________________________________ 65. Why are video games fun for many people? _______________________________________________________________ 66. What do you think of video game playing? Why do you think so? (Please give two reasons.) _______________________________________________________________ 【答案】64. Almost 14 hours. 65. Because they have bright lights, funny cartoons and exciting stories. 66. I think it has both advantages and disadvantages, because it helps children learn about technology, but spending too much time affects children’s social skills. (回答合理即可) 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了电子游戏的优点和缺点，并给父母提出了建议。 【64题详解】 第一段指出“They spend almost 14 hours gaming a week.”，英国8至15岁的孩子每周花近14小时玩电子游戏。 【65题详解】 第二段提到“They have bright lights, funny cartoons and exciting stories.”，电子游戏有明亮的灯光、有趣的卡通和激动人心的故事。 【66题详解】 第三段开头直接给出了电子游戏的教育意义：“Video games are educational too.”，它们也具有教育意义。第4段提到“video games can affect children’s social skills.”，电子游戏会影响孩子的社交技能。本题是开放性问题，可同时考虑电子游戏的益处和危害。 七、书面表达（满分15分） 67. 临近期末，学校在学习小组内开展了年终自评和组评活动，假设你是Moonlight小组的组长，请根据下面表格中的信息和提示，为你的组员Tommy进行综合素质的评价，写一份素质报告。 Name Tommy（一个十五岁的初三学生） Characteristics 聪明、大方、乐于助人 Hobbies 不仅喜欢看侦探小说，而且喜欢看关于体育新闻的电视节目。 Study 自从本学期他把绝大部分精力投放到学习中，他取得了很大进步。 Honour 他成功地帮助Detective Lu解决了绑架的案子。今年，学校授予了他见义勇为奖（award for bravery） Problems 面临考试，遭受压力和痛苦，他没有充足的睡眠。 Your suggestions 要求： 1. 表达清楚、语法正确、上下文连贯； 2. 要点必须包括所有相关信息，并作适当发挥，但不得出现真实班级、姓名等； 3. 词数：90词左右。 Tommy is a member of my team called Moonlight. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 参考范文 Tommy is a member of my team called Moonlight.

It does amazing things when the lift moves. Let’s find out about it! A lift is a small, closed place. There isn’t much fresh air inside. For some people, being in a lift might make them feel scared or uneasy. They may even breathe fast sometimes. They can’t see what’s happening outside as the lift doors close and it starts moving. When they look at the mirror in the lift, it can make them feel there is more space and it can help to reduce worry. The mirror in the lift also helps you see what others are doing. For example, you can see others’ facial expressions and what their hands are doing. This makes you feel safer too. Because of this, it can help stop someone from stealing. It’s easy to get bored in a lift, especially when it stops often. So the mirror is a great way to have fun. You can fix your hair in the mirror. Or you can quickly check if your clothes are tidy. Without a mirror, everyone would have to stare (盯着) at the floor. When you “play” with the mirror, time passes quickly. You don’t feel like you are wasting your time in the lift. 29. Why is the mirror helpful for some people in the lift? A. It reduces their worry. B. It provides fresh air. C. It makes doors open fast. D. It shows floor numbers. 30. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 3 refer to? A. The closed lift. B. The mirror in the lift. C. Someone who steals. D. Others’ facial expressions. 31. When do people easily feel bored in the lift? A. When there’s light. B. When doors are open. C. When it stops often. D. When it moves slowly. 32. What is the main purpose of writing this text? A. To tell why there are mirrors in lifts. B. To recommend places to put mirrors. C. To explain the problem of small lift space. D. To teach people how to use mirrors in lifts. C Are you feeling lonely and in need of a companion (伙伴)? Do you want a friend who can be with you anytime, anywhere? Meet Friend, a new wearable AI companion that you wear around your neck, can help. Meet Friend comes at a time when more and more people feel lonely. Studies show that 6.1% of young people in the US feel very lonely. Meet Friend’s founder (创始人), Schiffmann says their product doesn’t mean to take the place of real friends. Instead, it can help when you can’t be with people. People have different opinions about AI friends. Some, like Schiffmann, believe they can help with loneliness. But others worry that if people depend too much on AI for company, they might stop trying to make real human friends, which could make them feel even lonelier in the long run. ________ Drake Maples at Stanford University surveyed more than 1,000 students who used the AI chatbot Replika and studied their feelings of loneliness and social support. About half of these users reported reduced anxiety and a feeling of social support. Nearly a quarter of those surveyed said they are more able to deal with stress in their relationship because of Replika’s advice. It is still a new field though, and Drake Maples says there needs to be guidelines. “I strongly believe that you do need to have guidelines around AI companions pushing people back towards human relationships when suitable,” she says. These could be gentle reminders like “Hey, you should go chat with somebody about that” or “Go practice this now with a real human.” 33. What is Meet Friend aimed at? A. Taking the place of real humans. B. Increasing the productivity at work. C. Offering a new way to connect. D. Examining mental illness early. 34. Which sentence can be put in the ________? A. As a result, studies have shown that this worry is completely reasonable. B. However, research on actual user experiences tells a different story. C. Because of this, most people have now stopped worrying about the problem. D. Unluckily, this fear has prevented students from trying AI friends. 35. Which of the following best describes the “guideline” suggested by Drake Maples? A. Rules that stop people from using their AI friend for too long. B. Advice that encourages people to talk to other humans. C. Instructions to make sure that the AI product works safely. D. Warnings that tell people AI friends are bad. 36. Who in the following poems needs Meet Friend most? A. 举杯邀明月，对影成三人。 B. 海内存知己，天涯若比邻。 C. 劝君更尽一杯酒，西出阳关无故人。 D. 桃花潭水深千尺，不及汪伦送我情。 D The Marionette, as soon as his hunger was appeased (平息), started to grumble and cry that he wanted a new pair of feet. But Mastro Geppetto, in order to punish him for his mischief (淘气), let him alone the whole morning. After dinner, he said to him: “Why should I make your feet over again? To see you run away from home once more?” “I promise you,” answered the Marionette, sobbing, “that from now on I’ll be good...” “Boys always promise that when they want something,” said Geppetto. “I promise to go to school every day, to study, and to succeed.” “Boys always sing that song when they want their own will.” “But I am not like other boys! I am better than all of them and I always tell the truth. I promise you, Father, that I’ll learn a trade, and I’ll be the comfort and staff of your old age.” Geppetto, though trying to look very stern, felt his eyes fill with tears and his heart soften when he saw Pinocchio so unhappy. He said no more, but taking his tools and two pieces of wood, he set to work diligently. In less than an hour the feet were finished, two slender, nimble little feet, strong and quick, modeled as if by an artist’s hands. “Close your eyes and sleep!” Geppetto then said to the Marionette. Pinocchio closed his eyes and pretended (假装) to be asleep, while Geppetto stuck on the two feet with a bit of glue melted in an eggshell, doing his work so well that the joint could hardly be seen. As soon as the Marionette felt his new feet, he gave one leap from the table and started to skip and jump around, as if he had lost his head from very joy. “To show you how grateful I am to you, Father, I’ll go to school now. But to go to school I need a suit of clothes.” Geppetto did not have a penny in his pocket, so he made his son a little suit of flowered paper, a pair of shoes from the bark of a tree, and a tiny cap from a bit of dough. Pinocchio ran to look at himself in a bowl of water, and he felt so happy that he said proudly: “Now I look like a gentleman.” “Truly,” answered Geppetto. “But remember that fine clothes do not make the man unless they be neat and clean.” “Very true,” answered Pinocchio, “but, in order to go to school, I still need something very important.” “What is it?” “An A-B-C book.” Putting on his old coat, full of darns and patches (补丁), he ran out of the house without another word. After a while he returned. In his hands, he had the A-B-C book for his son, but the old coat was gone. The poor fellow was in his shirt sleeves and the day was cold. “Where’s your coat, Father?” “I have sold it.” “Why did you sell it?” “It’s too warm.” Pinocchio understood the answer in a twinkling, and, unable to restrain his tears, he jumped on his father’s neck and kissed him over and over. ——Adapted from The Adventures of Pinocchio 37.

Promises are easily made but hard to keep. 第二节（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 Usually great people encourage themselves and everyone around them toward better things.

In the UK, 99% of kids aged 8 to 15 play video games. They spend almost 14 hours gaming a week. This information tells us that the benefits and dangers of video games must be carefully considered. For many people, video games are fun. They have bright lights, funny cartoons and exciting stories. Everywhere you look, you can see children playing these games. They play on buses and trains, in restaurants and even at school. Video games are educational too. They make kids think in a creative way, and they have to move their hands and eyes quickly. This can improve the way that a child’s brain works. What’s more, video games make children use their imagination. The player has to do many creative things, like drawing, telling stories and building things. Video games are also good for children to learn about technology because they can learn how computers and other devices work while they play. However, a recent study suggests that video games can also be bad for children. First, children can download many games for free. This means that parents often don’t know if their children are playing violent (暴力的) or scary (恐怖的) games. Second, many children spend too much time playing games on computers, and this can lead to health problems. Third, if children spend too much time playing games instead of doing homework, they can have problems at school and get bad grades. Finally, video games can affect children’s social skills. If children spend too much time playing video games by themselves, they might not learn how to play with their friends. In conclusion, it seems clear that video games have some advantages and some disadvantages. Parents should know what games their children are playing and how much time they spend on them. Parents should also make sure their children get enough exercise and spend time with other children. 64.
