He always asks questions about how things work around him. A．energetic B．practical C．curious D．patient 【答案】C 【解析】句意：西蒙非常好奇。他总是询问身边事物是如何运作的。 energetic精力充沛的；practical实际的；curious好奇的；patient有耐心的。根据后句“总是询问身边事物如何运作”的语境，能够对应描述人充满求知欲、对事物感到好奇，应用curious。 2．You can ________ your ideas with your group‑mates, but don’t argue with them. A．provide B．share C．connect D．lead 【答案】B 【解析】句意：你可以和小组成员分享你的想法，但不要与他们争论。 provide提供；share分享；connect连接；lead引领。“your ideas with your group‑mates”此处指和小组成员分享自己的想法，share ideas with sb“和某人分享想法”。 3．—The match is so exciting. Both teams are strong. But I believe in our players. —You’re right. But are you sure ________ our team will win? A．if B．that C．whether D．why 【答案】B 【解析】句意：——比赛太激动人心了。两队都很强。但我相信我们的球员。——你说得对。但你确定我们队会赢吗？ if如果/是否；that无实义；whether是否；why为什么。根据“But are you sure...our team will win?”可知，空后的句子结构完整，应用that引导宾语从句，起连接作用。 4．—Could you please tell me ________? —Sure. It’s on Center Street, next to the bank. A．where is the post office B．where the post office is C．how can I get to the post office D．how I can get to the post office 【答案】B 【解析】——请问你能告诉我邮局在哪里吗？——当然，就在中心街，银行旁边。 分析句子结构可知，空处为宾语从句，需用陈述句语序（引导词+主语+谓语）。根据“Sure. It’s on Center Street, next to the bank.”可知，问句询问地点，故用where引导宾语从句。 5．The teacher reminds us ________ our temper when we have disagreements with family members. A．control B．to control C．controlling D．controlled 【答案】B 【解析】句意：老师提醒我们在与家人发生分歧时要控制脾气。 固定搭配remind sb. to do sth.，意为“提醒某人做某事”，空处应用动词不定式。 6．I feel like ________ about my trouble to my close friend, but my mum makes me ________ my daily review first.

A．I hope so B．All right C．Cheer up D．Believe it or not 【答案】D 【解析】句意：信不信由你，秧歌舞在央视春晚由机器人表演了。 I hope so我希望如此；All right好的；Cheer up振作起来；Believe it or not信不信由你。机器人表演秧歌，是一件让人意外的事，故填Believe it or not。 8．You needn’t open the door with the key because the smart lock can ________ your face and open it by itself. A．recognize B．repeat C．refuse D．review 【答案】A 【解析】句意：你不需要用钥匙开门，因为智能锁可以识别你的脸并自动打开。 recognize识别；repeat重复；refuse拒绝；review复习。根据“the smart lock can... your face and open it by itself”可知，智能锁是通过识别面部特征来自动开门的，recognize符合语境。 9．—Mom, I want to hang out with my friend tomorrow. —No, you can’t. You ________ go out ________ you finish your reading task. A．can; until B．can’t; until C．must; when D．mustn’t;when 【答案】B 【解析】句意：——妈妈，明天我想和朋友出去玩。——不行。直到你完成阅读任务，你才能出去。 根据答语“No, you can’t”可知妈妈拒绝了这个请求，表示“不能”出去，句子要用否定含义；结合“做完任务才能出门”的逻辑，此处匹配“not…until…” 结构，意为“直到……才……”，表示在until后面这件事做完之前，前面的事不能做。应选B。 10．—Grandma, you look so strong and healthy! —Thank you, Dear.

I used to be a naughty boy in class and get really 11 grades. It came as no surprise that I would get an F. And that would make me really 12 . So what I used to do was 13 those grades up—I would turn the F into a B just to 14 my parents. Well, it didn’t work out. Later, I knew I had to 15 that failure and learn from it, and something good really came from it. I started doing better with my grades. That F turned into a B 16 , and that B turned into an A． Since we were little, we have always been taught to believe failure is really a 17 thing and that we must feel sorry and guilty when we fail. So we work hard to 18 commonly-believed success and stay away from failure. However, this is a completely 19 idea. Life is full of ups and downs. From being a kid to 20 into an adult, you fail in many things in life. So it is 21 to pay no attention to it. It is OK when failure happens. In fact, it only tells you about yourself. You get to learn about your 22 abilities, what you are good at, and what you are not. Whenever you 23 failure, don’t think that you’ll never get over it. You must 24 ways to better yourself. Did you know it took Thomas Edison lots of tries to 25 the light bulb? Bill Gates failed many times. Even his first company was a complete failure. These prove that you must learn from your failures, and not run away from them! 11．A．smart B．wonderful C．poor D．special 12．A．scared B．relaxed C．excited D．amazed 13．A．give B．show C．take D．cover 14．A．please B．treat C．discover D．surprise 15．A．manage B．accept C．suggest D．describe 16．A．naturally B．equally C．simply D．separately 17．A．wise B．proud C．shameful D．relaxing 18．A．connect B．develop C．express D．achieve 19．A．wrong B．strange C．popular D．usual 20．A．running B．growing C．looking D．breaking 21．A．glad B．lucky C．impossible D．meaningful 22．A．new B．true C．creative D．powerful 23．A．create B．miss C．forget D．face 24．A．care about B．put out C．come up with D．show off 25．A．repair B．perfect C．paint D．decorate 【答案】 11．C 12．A 13．D 14．A 15．B 16．A 17．C 18．D 19．A 20．B 21．C 22．B 23．D 24．C 25．B 【解析】本文讲述了作者小时候成绩不好，试图掩盖失败，后来学会接受失败并从中学习，最终取得进步的经历。文章借此说明失败是生活中不可避免的一部分，我们应该面对失败、从中学习，而不是逃避。 11．句意：我过去在班上是个淘气的男孩并且取得很差的成绩。 根据“I had trouble with some subjects”，可知成绩不好。poor意为“差的”，符合语境。smart“聪明的”；wonderful“极好的”；special“特别的”，均与语境不符。 12．句意：这会让我非常害怕。 根据“It came as no surprise that I would get an F”，可知拿到不及格的分数内心会担忧害怕。scared意为“害怕的”，符合语境。relaxed“放松的”；excited“兴奋的”；amazed“惊讶的”，均与语境不符。 13．句意：所以我过去所做的就是掩盖这些成绩。 根据“I would turn the F into a B”，可知作者想要遮盖住糟糕的分数。cover意为“覆盖，掩盖”，符合语境。give“给”；show“展示”；take“带走”，均与语境不符。 14．句意：我会把F改成B，只是为了取悦我的父母。 根据常识可知，改分数的目的是不想让父母失望、讨父母欢心。please意为“使……满意，取悦”，符合语境。treat“对待”；discover“发现”；surprise“使惊讶”，均与语境不符。 15．句意：后来，我知道我必须接受失败并从中吸取教训。 根据“and learn from it”，可知先要接纳失败的事实。accept意为“接受”，符合语境。manage“管理”；suggest“建议”；describe“描述”，均与语境不符。 16．句意：那个F自然而然地变成了B，那个B又变成了A。 根据前文作者开始努力学习，可知成绩提升是努力之后顺理成章的结果。naturally意为“自然地”，符合语境。equally“平等地”；simply“简单地”；separately“分别地”，均与语境不符。 17．句意：从小我们就一直被教导，失败是一件可耻的事情，失败时我们必须感到愧疚。 根据“feel sorry and guilty”，可知人们认为失败是丢脸的。shameful意为“可耻的”，符合语境。wise“明智的”；proud“骄傲的”；relaxing“令人放松的”，均与语境不符。 18．句意：所以我们努力去实现人们普遍认为的成功，远离失败。 大众的普遍行为逻辑是：认定失败是坏事之后，就会努力去实现大家公认的成功、远离失败，achieve success是固定搭配，表示“取得、达成成功”，符合行为导向。achieve意为“实现，达到”，符合语境。connect“联系”；develop“发展”；express“表达”，均与语境不符。 19．句意：然而，这是一个完全错误的想法。 开头用转折词However推翻前文提到的“失败可耻、要全力远离失败”的传统认知，后文紧接着提出“人生充满起伏”的新观点，说明作者认为前述的传统认知是完全错误的，wrong意为“错误的”，符合语境。strange“陌生的”；popular“流行的”；usual“平常的”，均与语境不符。 20．句意：从孩童成长为成年人，你在生活中很多事情上都会失败。 前文出现提示线索“From being a kid”（从孩童时期），对应的人生阶段变化是“成长为成年人”，grow into是固定短语表示“成长为、发展为”，匹配从孩童到成人的自然人生轨迹；growing意为“成长”，符合语境。running“奔跑”；looking“看”；breaking“打破”，均与语境不符。 21．句意：所以想要忽视它是不可能的。 根据“Life is full of ups and downs”，可知人生起伏不断，失败在所难免。impossible意为“不可能的”，符合语境。glad“高兴的”；lucky“幸运的”；meaningful“有意义的”，均与语境不符。 22．句意：你可以了解自己真正的能力，知道自己擅长什么，不擅长什么。 根据“what you are good at, and what you are not”，可知失败能让你看清真实的自我水平。true意为“真实的”，符合语境。new“新的”；creative“有创造力的”；powerful“强大的”，均与语境不符。 23．句意：当你面对失败时，不要认为你永远熬不过去。 根据“failure”可知此处指直面失败。face意为“面对”，符合语境。create“创造”；miss“错过”；forget“忘记”，均与语境不符。 24．句意：你必须想出办法让自己变得更好。 根据后面的名词“ways”，可知此处表示想出解决的办法。come up with意为“想出，提出”，符合语境。care about“关心”；put out“扑灭”；show off“炫耀”，均与语境不符。 25．句意：你知道托马斯・爱迪生尝试了很多次才让灯泡趋于完美吗？ 根据爱迪生发明灯泡的常识，可知经过无数次试验完善灯泡。perfect意为“使……完美”，符合语境。repair“修理”；paint“粉刷”；decorate“装饰”，均与语境不符。 三、阅读理解(本题共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分) 第一节 请认真阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的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。 A Never Give Up Summer Camp Are you facing difficulties in your studies or daily life?

What’s your dream job? How much do you know about it? A group of students from Tianjin found that most of them had few ideas about their future jobs due to a lack of support from school or family. To provide helpful guidance(指导), students from TEDA No.1 Secondary School started an activity called “Dian Zhi Cheng Shi, Zhi Yin Wei Lai”. The team interviewed professionals (专业人士) from different fields and published their interviews on the internet. These professionals shared their true stories and opinions on different jobs. “We also invited the professionals to give talks so that students could talk to them face to face,” said Wang Xinran. Wang’s favourite interview was with a photographer. “I used to think being a photographer was cool, but now I realize they face many challenges. For example, they have to talk with different people and keep an eye on the weather. One of the biggest challenges is the awful weather. So I think the job isn’t easy,” the photographer said. Such interviews don’t disappoint (使失望) students because there are still some happy and exciting things at work. “We want to show the beauty in every profession,” said Zhao Yajie. “We believe work should be about love. And we hope the activity can help students understand that.” 29．Why did the students from TEDA No.1 Secondary School start the activity? A．To provide students with useful guidance. B．To get along well with others. C．To interview professionals. D．To share their experiences. 30．What challenges do photographers need to face according to the text? A．They need to carry many things. B．They need to keep an eye on the weather. C．They have to look for beautiful places. D．They have to satisfy many people’s needs. 31．Which of the following would Zhao Yajie agree with? A．People can’t work for money. B．People should do the job they love. C．It’s useless to join in the activity. D．The activity is helpful to teachers. 32．What is the best structure of this text? (①=Paragraph 1, …) A．①/②③/④⑤ B．①/②③④⑤ C．①/②/③④⑤ D．①/②③④/⑤ 【答案】29．A 30．B 31．B 32．C 【解析】本文介绍了天津泰达一中学生因对职业缺乏了解，开展“点职成诗，指引未来”的活动，采访专业人士并分享信息，旨在帮助学生认识职业多样性。 29．根据第二段“To provide helpful guidance, students from TEDA No.1 Secondary School started an activity”可知，开展活动是为了提供有用的指导。 30．根据第四段摄影师所说“For example, they have to talk with different people and keep an eye on the weather. One of the biggest challenges is the awful weather. So I think the job isn’t easy”可知，摄影师需要关注天气。 31．根据最后一段“We believe work should be about love.”可知，赵雅洁认为人们应该做自己热爱的工作。 32．第一段提出问题，即大多数学生对未来工作了解甚少；第二段说明学生开展活动来提供指导；第三、四段通过举例说明活动的具体内容，第五段阐述活动的意义。所以文章结构为①/②/③④⑤。 C When John was driving to work, someone suddenly cut him off in traffic. He screamed and yelled angrily at the driver. The driver, having a bad morning, shouted back in anger as well. All of us, sometimes, at least overreact to small things, but the reality is that it’s not worth it. Overreacting can lead to creating a bigger issue or accident. Stress in our lives can create the conditions for us to overreact. But even though doing so might let out one’s anger in the moment, it doesn’t solve the true source of the stress. All it does is to create more anxiety. Listen, it’s totally okay to feel your emotions and want to express them sometimes, but real issues start to arise when we react much more than necessary. When you overreact, it might be a sign that there are other, deeper problems you aren’t dealing with, which are called emotional triggers (诱因). Everyone has emotional triggers and here are some common ones: events that repeat maddening experiences from one’s past, situations where one feels a sense of disrespect, and moments when one’s loved ones get harmed. If we know what our triggers are, we can learn to be more in control of ourselves. Personally, I overreact whenever I work hard on something but someone is not pleased with it. I feel my ability is under attack and become defensive (防御的) right away. But then I see that my anger comes from always pushing myself to be perfect and being afraid of others’ bad words. Deep down, I feel tired and the sense of unfairness (不公平) is killing me. It may be hard for some to understand how the feeling of not being valued can drain those people who get energy from knowing their efforts are valued. Knowing this about myself, I become more aware of my reactions and try to respond to people more calmly when they offer criticism (批评), which turns out to draw me closer to others. Therefore, when you’re triggered, keep breathing deeply and cool down. Think about what just happened calmly by bringing yourself closer to truth and think about how other people might feel about things. Overreactions sometimes happen when we get over-focused on ourselves and our own emotions. Remember, no one gets a perfect life. If you aren’t totally aware of what your triggers are, it might help to reflect on the past week and all the times when something makes you sad. Understand the things that bother you the most and take action. So when you get annoyed over little things, take a moment to think calmly about what triggers you and try the above tips. By practicing, you can surely hold your temper when you are about to get mad next time. And one day you might find yourself among a closer circle. 33．Who probably shares the same emotional trigger as the writer? A．Lily, who overreacted when she heard bad comments on her report. B．Peter, who overreacted when his classmates joked about his parents. C．Ann, who overreacted when she was invited to play the game she hated. D．Mike, who overreacted when someone ran into him and refused to say “sorry”. 34．What does the word “drain” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A．Look forward. B．Lose heart. C．Improve oneself. D．Keep practising. 35．Which of the following would the writer most probably agree with? A．It’s necessary to overreact sometimes because it can make people feel calm. B．It’s common for people who care more about those around them to overreact. C．Avoiding criticism is helpful for people to keep calm and prevent overreaction. D．Finding emotional triggers helps manage overreactions and improve relationships. 36．Which of the following would be the best title for the text? A．Overreaction: A Guide to Perfect Emotional Control. B．Overreaction: A Terrible Way to Deal with Criticism. C．Overreaction: Knowing Triggers and Finding Calm. D．Overreaction: Managing Anger and Preventing Stress. 【答案】33．A 34．B 35．D 36．C 【解析】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要探讨了过度反应这一现象，分析了其背后的情绪诱因，指出了解自己的情绪诱因有助于控制反应，并提出了应对过度反应的方法，强调通过了解和处理情绪诱因可以更好地管理情绪，改善人际关系。 33．根据第三段“Personally, I overreact whenever I work hard on something but someone is not pleased with it.”可知，作者的情绪诱因是自己付出努力完成的成果得不到他人认可、收到负面评价时就会过激反应，对比选项，A选项中Lily听到针对自己报告的负面评价时过激反应，与作者的诱因一致。 34．根据第三段“It may be hard for some to understand how the feeling of not being valued can drain those people who get energy from knowing their efforts.”可知，对于那些从努力被认可中获取能量的人来说，不被重视的感觉会消耗他们的能量；据此推断，“drain”意为使疲惫、削弱，与“Lose heart”意思相近。 35．根据第三段“Knowing this about myself, I become more aware of my reactions and try to respond to people more calmly…, which turns out to draw me closer to others.”以及全文内容可知，了解自己的情绪诱因有助于更好地管理过度反应，并且能改善与他人的关系。 36．文章主要围绕过度反应展开，介绍了过度反应产生的原因即情绪诱因，以及如何通过了解诱因来保持冷静，避免过度反应；“Overreaction: Knowing Triggers and Finding Calm”符合文章主旨，适合作为文章的标题。 D There was a boy outside the door, with a large letter in his hand. (He was dressed like a boy, but his face was very like a fish, Alice thought.) The Fish-Boy knocked at the door, and a second later a large plate came flying out of an open window. “A letter for the Duchess (公爵夫人),” the Fish-Boy shouted. He pushed the letter under the door and went away. Alice went up to the door and knocked but there was a lot of noise inside and nobody answered. So she opened the door and walked in. She found herself in a kitchen, which was full of smoke. There was a very angry cook by the fire, and in the middle of the room sat the Duchess, holding a screaming baby. Every few minutes a plate crashed (撞击) to the floor. There was also a large cat, which was sitting on a chair and grinning (咧嘴笑) from ear to ear. “Please,” Alice said politely to the Duchess, “Why does your cat grin like that?” “It’s a Cheshire (柴郡) Cat,” said the Duchess. “That’s why.” “I didn’t know that cats could grin,” said Alice. “Well, you don’t know much,” said the Duchess. Another plate crashed to the floor and Alice jumped. “Here!” the Duchess went on. “You can hold the baby for a bit if you like. The Queen has invited me to play croquet (槌球), and I must go and get ready.” She pushed the baby into Alice’s arms and hurried out of the room. “Oh, the poor little thing!” said Alice, looking at the baby, which had a very strange face. She took it outside into the wood and walked around under the trees. Then the baby began to make strange noises, and Alice looked into its face again. Its eyes were really very small for a baby, and its nose now looked very like the nose of a pig. —Excerpted from Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland 37．What did the Fish-Boy bring to the Duchess? A．A plate. B．A baby. C．A letter. D．A cat. 38．What is the right order of the events in this passage? a. Duchess pushed the baby into Alice’s arms. b. Alice took it outside into the wood. c. The Fish-Boy knocked at the door. d. Alice found herself in a kitchen. A．b-a-c-d B．b-d-a-c C．c-d-a-b D．c-a-d-b 39．What can we infer (推断) from the passage about the Duchess? A．She is very happy to have a visitor. B．She is a very careful and loving mother. C．She is a good friend of the angry cook. D．She wants to leave the kitchen very quickly. 40．Why did Alice jump when another plate crashed to the floor? A．She was frightened by the loud noise. B．She wanted to catch the plate. C．She wanted to stop the cook. D．She liked the crashing sound. 【答案】37．C 38．C 39．D 40．A 【解析】本文主要讲了鱼脸男孩送信后，爱丽丝走进厨房，公爵夫人把婴儿交给她便匆匆离开，爱丽丝带婴儿到树林，婴儿样貌变得像猪。 37．第二段指出：“A letter for the Duchess,” the Fish-Boy shouted. He pushed the letter under the door and went away.，这直接说明鱼脸男孩给公爵夫人带来了一封信。 38．梳理全文事件顺序：先是鱼脸男孩敲门（c），然后爱丽丝走进房间，发现自己在厨房里（d），接着公爵夫人把婴儿推到爱丽丝怀里（a），最后爱丽丝把婴儿带到外面的树林里（b），因此正确顺序是c-d-a-b。 39．文中公爵夫人说：“The Queen has invited me to play croquet, and I must go and get ready.”，说完她就把婴儿塞给爱丽丝，匆匆离开房间，能推断出公爵夫人想要尽快离开厨房。 40．文中写到：“Another plate crashed to the floor and Alice jumped.”，盘子摔在地上发出巨大声响，爱丽丝被这个响声吓到，所以跳了起来。 第二节 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的六个选项中选出五个可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Everyone feels afraid sometimes. Brave people are not people who never feel fear. 41 Some think brave people are born that way. They think brave people never worry or doubt. But this is not true. Being brave is acting through fear. It’s choosing to try when we want to stop. 42 It’s standing up when we want to sit down. Life is full of things we can’t control. 43 Some days are good, while some days are hard. Being brave doesn’t mean knowing everything will be OK. Being brave means trying even when we’re not sure. 44 When we’re scared but still take one small step, that’s courage. When we fail but try again, that’s courage. When we say “I need help”, that is courage, too. We don’t need to do big things to be brave. Every time we face something hard instead of running away, we’re being brave. 45 Remember—feeling afraid doesn’t mean we’re not brave. What makes us brave is what we do when we feel afraid. Just take one small step, then another. That’s how courage works. A．We all have courage inside us. B．We never know what will happen next. C．Each time we do this, we grow stronger. D．It’s speaking when we want to stay quiet. E．They know everything and never worry or doubt. F．They are those who keep going even when they are scared. 【答案】41．F 42．D 43．B 44．A 45．C 【解析】本文是一篇议论文，主要讲述了勇气的真正含义，指出勇敢并非没有恐惧，而是在恐惧中依然前行，并通过面对困难不断成长。 41．根据文章第一段“Brave people are not people who never feel fear.（勇敢的人不是从不感到恐惧的人。）”可知，此处应进一步说明勇敢的人是什么样的人，与前句形成对比。选项F“They are those who keep going even when they are scared.（他们是那些即使害怕也继续前进的人。）”符合语境。 42．根据文章第二段“It’s choosing to try when we want to stop.（它是当我们想停止时选择尝试。）”及后句“It’s standing up when we want to sit down.（它是当我们想坐下时站起来。）”可知，此处需保持句式一致，构成排比。选项D“It’s speaking when we want to stay quiet.（当我们想保持安静时，它却是说话。）”符合结构要求。 43．根据文章第三段“Life is full of things we can’t control.（生活充满了我们无法控制的事情。）”可知，此处应表达未来的不确定性，与后文“Some days are good, while some days are hard.（有些日子很好，而有些日子很难。）”相呼应。选项B“We never know what will happen next.（我们永远不知道接下来会发生什么。）”符合逻辑。 44．根据文章第四段“When we’re scared but still take one small step, that’s courage.（当我们害怕但仍然迈出一小步时，那就是勇气。）”等列举的具体表现可知，此处应为段落的主题句，引出勇气的存在。选项A“We all have courage inside us.（我们内心都有勇气。）”适合作为总起句。 45．根据文章第五段“Every time we face something hard instead of running away, we’re being brave.（每次我们面对困难而不是逃跑时，我们就是勇敢的。）”可知，此处应说明这样做带来的积极结果。选项C“Each time we do this, we grow stronger.（每次我们这样做，我们都会变得更强大。）”中“this”指代前文面对困难的行为，符合结尾升华的逻辑。 第Ⅱ卷(非选择题 共55分) 第Ⅱ卷共26小题，请将答案按要求写在答题卡上。 四、词汇运用(本题共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分) 请认真阅读下面短文，根据语篇内容，在空白处填入括号内单词的正确形式，使短文通顺、连贯。 You must have been 15 years old. Do you feel different from that when you were 9 years old? Are you wondering if you 46 (grow) up already? You may be a physical adult before you finish studying. Some people may finish their growing at high school, while others are still growing after they leave school. Being an adult 47 (need) a long time. The more you experience, the 48 (fast) you become an adult. When you get older and you think you are grown-up, you 49 (face) some physical and relationship problems that you should deal with, 50 (include) how to get a good job or how to get along with your friends. Parents are our life-long wealth and they are very 51 (value) for our growth, but they are 52 (able) to do everything for you. Sometimes you might have your own ideas. What they should do is to make sure that you have all the information to make 53 (decide) by yourself. Of course it is necessary 54 (do) it in a right way. In fact, caring parents and family are the best support you can have. Anyway, I wish you to grow up 55 (health) and happily. 【答案】 46．have grown 47．needs 48．faster 49．will face 50．including 51．valuable 52．unable 53．decisions 54．to do 55．healthily 【解析】本文主要介绍了中学生的成长过程会遇到的一些问题，以及父母在其中所起到的作用。 46．句意：你在想你已经长大了吗？根据“already”可知，空处用现在完成时，主语是you，助动词用have，后跟grow的过去分词grown。故填have grown。 47．句意：成为一名成年人需要很长的时间。主语“Being an adult”为动名词短语，时态是一般现在时，此处谓语动词需用第三人称单数形式。故填needs。 48．句意：你经历越多，长大得就越快。根据前文“the more... the...”可知，此处是“the+比较级...，the+比较级...”的结构，表示“越……就越……”所以空处用fast的比较级faster。故填faster。 49．句意：当你长大了，你认为自己已经长大了，你会面临一些你应该处理的身体和人际关系问题，包括如何找到一份好的工作或与朋友相处。根据前文“when you get older”可知，这里是when引导的时间状语从句，时态上遵循主将从现的原则，所以主句用一般将来时，结构是will do。故填will face。 50．句意：当你长大了，你认为自己已经长大了，你会面临一些你应该处理的身体和人际关系问题，包括如何找到一份好的工作或与朋友相处。根据“some physical and relationship problems that you should deal with,... (include) how to get a good job or how to get along with your friends”可知，空后是在解释所要解决的问题包含哪些，所以用include的介词形式including表示补充说明，故填including。 51．句意：父母是我们一生的财富，他们对我们的成长非常有价值，但他们不能为你做所有事情。are 后应该跟形容词作表语， value的形容词是valuable表示“珍贵的，有价值的”。故填valuable。 52．句意：父母是我们一生的财富，他们对我们的成长非常有价值，但他们不能为你做所有事情。根据“but”可知，空后和空前在句意上是转折关系，所以空处表示不能为你做所有事情，此处表示“不能”，需用“unable”。故填unable。 53．句意：他们应该做的是确保你有所有的信息来自己做决定。 动词make后面要用名词来作宾语， make decisions表示“做决定”，固定短语。故填decisions。 54．句意：当然，用正确的方法做这件事是必要的。本句是固定句型it is+形容词+不定式，表示“做某事是怎样的”，本句中it是形式主语，真正的主语是动词不定式，所以空处应填动词不定式。故填to do。 55．句意：不管怎样，祝你健康快乐地成长。修饰动词短语“grow up”应用副词，health的副词是“healthily”。故填healthily。 五、短文填空(本题共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分) 请认真阅读下面短文，并根据各题所给首字母的提示，写出一个合适的英语单词完整、正确的形式，使短文通顺。 Being a Grade 9 student, Sarah dreams of becoming a singer.

The seeds of his China journey were sown when he joined a program for East Asian Art at London University in 1997. Back then, brushes and ink were not easy to get. Learning Chinese writing meant copying model books and using rice paper. He would practice a single stroke for hours to understand its beauty. “In those days, it was a real challenge,” he said. In 2006, with a high score in the official Chinese language test, he won a scholarship for a summer program at Beijing Language and Culture University. After finishing the study program, John was offered a Nanjing-based job as an art researcher. In 2008, the year Beijing succeeded in hosting the Summer Olympic Games, he got married. In the next year, he started to teach art at NNU. Life in Nanjing has been a wonderful adventure, especially as a witness to the great achievements China has made. It has offered him many chances for personal growth. Today, thanks to high-speed broadband and 5G, he can connect with students at NNU’s partner universities in the UK, France or Mexico while riding on the Nanjing subway. “When you open your eyes to these great projects, it is impossible not to want to be part of them or at least support them somehow,” he said. Although he was busy on teaching days, John applied for a full-time scholarship at the China Academy of Art. In 2022, at 44, he got his Ph.D．in fine arts. “I am quite interested in seal carving, and I know that China is quickly becoming the leader in traditional art research. So, I always write my articles in this area,” he said. “There is always time to follow your dreams unless you decide to give up,” he said. “Taking on seemingly impossible challenges and helping those around you are what makes life worth living.” 66．Who is John in this passage? 67．How did John learn Chinese writing in London? 68．When did John start to teach art at NNU? 69．What has offered John many chances for personal growth? 70．What can you learn from John’s experiences? 【答案】 66．He is a British teacher at Nanjing Normal University (NNU)./John is a British teacher at NNU. 67．He learned it by copying model books and using rice paper./By copying model books and using rice paper. 68．In 2009. 69．Life in Nanjing (has offered him many chances). 70．Never give up our dreams/Follow your dreams unless you decide to give up/Taking on challenges makes life worth living.（开放性问题，言之有理即可） 【解析】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了英国教师John在中国学习书法、工作生活并取得个人成长的励志故事。 66．根据文章第1段“John, a British teacher at Nanjing Normal University (NNU)（约翰，南京师范大学的一位英国教师）”可推知他的身份。 67．根据文章第1段“Learning Chinese writing meant copying model books and using rice paper.（学习中国书法意味着临摹字帖和使用宣纸。）”可推知学习方式。 68．根据文章第2段“In 2008...

I used to be a naughty boy in class and get really 11 grades. It came as no surprise that I would get an F. And that would make me really 12 . So what I used to do was 13 those grades up—I would turn the F into a B just to 14 my parents. Well, it didn’t work out. Later, I knew I had to 15 that failure and learn from it, and something good really came from it. I started doing better with my grades. That F turned into a B 16 , and that B turned into an A． Since we were little, we have always been taught to believe failure is really a 17 thing and that we must feel sorry and guilty when we fail. So we work hard to 18 commonly-believed success and stay away from failure. However, this is a completely 19 idea. Life is full of ups and downs. From being a kid to 20 into an adult, you fail in many things in life. So it is 21 to pay no attention to it. It is OK when failure happens. In fact, it only tells you about yourself. You get to learn about your 22 abilities, what you are good at, and what you are not. Whenever you 23 failure, don’t think that you’ll never get over it. You must 24 ways to better yourself. Did you know it took Thomas Edison lots of tries to 25 the light bulb? Bill Gates failed many times. Even his first company was a complete failure.

A group of students from Tianjin found that most of them had few ideas about their future jobs due to a lack of support from school or family. To provide helpful guidance(指导), students from TEDA No.1 Secondary School started an activity called “Dian Zhi Cheng Shi, Zhi Yin Wei Lai”. The team interviewed professionals (专业人士) from different fields and published their interviews on the internet. These professionals shared their true stories and opinions on different jobs. “We also invited the professionals to give talks so that students could talk to them face to face,” said Wang Xinran. Wang’s favourite interview was with a photographer. “I used to think being a photographer was cool, but now I realize they face many challenges. For example, they have to talk with different people and keep an eye on the weather. One of the biggest challenges is the awful weather. So I think the job isn’t easy,” the photographer said. Such interviews don’t disappoint (使失望) students because there are still some happy and exciting things at work. “We want to show the beauty in every profession,” said Zhao Yajie. “We believe work should be about love. And we hope the activity can help students understand that.” 29．Why did the students from TEDA No.1 Secondary School start the activity? A．To provide students with useful guidance. B．To get along well with others. C．To interview professionals. D．To share their experiences. 30．What challenges do photographers need to face according to the text? A．They need to carry many things. B．They need to keep an eye on the weather. C．They have to look for beautiful places. D．They have to satisfy many people’s needs. 31．Which of the following would Zhao Yajie agree with? A．People can’t work for money. B．People should do the job they love. C．It’s useless to join in the activity. D．The activity is helpful to teachers. 32．What is the best structure of this text? (①=Paragraph 1, …) A．①/②③/④⑤ B．①/②③④⑤ C．①/②/③④⑤ D．①/②③④/⑤ C When John was driving to work, someone suddenly cut him off in traffic. He screamed and yelled angrily at the driver. The driver, having a bad morning, shouted back in anger as well. All of us, sometimes, at least overreact to small things, but the reality is that it’s not worth it. Overreacting can lead to creating a bigger issue or accident. Stress in our lives can create the conditions for us to overreact. But even though doing so might let out one’s anger in the moment, it doesn’t solve the true source of the stress. All it does is to create more anxiety. Listen, it’s totally okay to feel your emotions and want to express them sometimes, but real issues start to arise when we react much more than necessary. When you overreact, it might be a sign that there are other, deeper problems you aren’t dealing with, which are called emotional triggers (诱因). Everyone has emotional triggers and here are some common ones: events that repeat maddening experiences from one’s past, situations where one feels a sense of disrespect, and moments when one’s loved ones get harmed. If we know what our triggers are, we can learn to be more in control of ourselves. Personally, I overreact whenever I work hard on something but someone is not pleased with it. I feel my ability is under attack and become defensive (防御的) right away. But then I see that my anger comes from always pushing myself to be perfect and being afraid of others’ bad words. Deep down, I feel tired and the sense of unfairness (不公平) is killing me. It may be hard for some to understand how the feeling of not being valued can drain those people who get energy from knowing their efforts are valued. Knowing this about myself, I become more aware of my reactions and try to respond to people more calmly when they offer criticism (批评), which turns out to draw me closer to others. Therefore, when you’re triggered, keep breathing deeply and cool down. Think about what just happened calmly by bringing yourself closer to truth and think about how other people might feel about things. Overreactions sometimes happen when we get over-focused on ourselves and our own emotions. Remember, no one gets a perfect life. If you aren’t totally aware of what your triggers are, it might help to reflect on the past week and all the times when something makes you sad. Understand the things that bother you the most and take action. So when you get annoyed over little things, take a moment to think calmly about what triggers you and try the above tips. By practicing, you can surely hold your temper when you are about to get mad next time. And one day you might find yourself among a closer circle. 33．Who probably shares the same emotional trigger as the writer? A．Lily, who overreacted when she heard bad comments on her report. B．Peter, who overreacted when his classmates joked about his parents. C．Ann, who overreacted when she was invited to play the game she hated. D．Mike, who overreacted when someone ran into him and refused to say “sorry”. 34．What does the word “drain” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A．Look forward. B．Lose heart. C．Improve oneself. D．Keep practising. 35．Which of the following would the writer most probably agree with? A．It’s necessary to overreact sometimes because it can make people feel calm. B．It’s common for people who care more about those around them to overreact. C．Avoiding criticism is helpful for people to keep calm and prevent overreaction. D．Finding emotional triggers helps manage overreactions and improve relationships. 36．Which of the following would be the best title for the text? A．Overreaction: A Guide to Perfect Emotional Control. B．Overreaction: A Terrible Way to Deal with Criticism. C．Overreaction: Knowing Triggers and Finding Calm. D．Overreaction: Managing Anger and Preventing Stress. D There was a boy outside the door, with a large letter in his hand. (He was dressed like a boy, but his face was very like a fish, Alice thought.) The Fish-Boy knocked at the door, and a second later a large plate came flying out of an open window. “A letter for the Duchess (公爵夫人),” the Fish-Boy shouted. He pushed the letter under the door and went away. Alice went up to the door and knocked but there was a lot of noise inside and nobody answered. So she opened the door and walked in. She found herself in a kitchen, which was full of smoke. There was a very angry cook by the fire, and in the middle of the room sat the Duchess, holding a screaming baby. Every few minutes a plate crashed (撞击) to the floor. There was also a large cat, which was sitting on a chair and grinning (咧嘴笑) from ear to ear. “Please,” Alice said politely to the Duchess, “Why does your cat grin like that?” “It’s a Cheshire (柴郡) Cat,” said the Duchess. “That’s why.” “I didn’t know that cats could grin,” said Alice. “Well, you don’t know much,” said the Duchess. Another plate crashed to the floor and Alice jumped. “Here!” the Duchess went on. “You can hold the baby for a bit if you like. The Queen has invited me to play croquet (槌球), and I must go and get ready.” She pushed the baby into Alice’s arms and hurried out of the room. “Oh, the poor little thing!” said Alice, looking at the baby, which had a very strange face. She took it outside into the wood and walked around under the trees. Then the baby began to make strange noises, and Alice looked into its face again. Its eyes were really very small for a baby, and its nose now looked very like the nose of a pig. —Excerpted from Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland 37．What did the Fish-Boy bring to the Duchess?

Brave people are not people who never feel fear. 41 Some think brave people are born that way. They think brave people never worry or doubt. But this is not true. Being brave is acting through fear. It’s choosing to try when we want to stop. 42 It’s standing up when we want to sit down. Life is full of things we can’t control. 43 Some days are good, while some days are hard. Being brave doesn’t mean knowing everything will be OK. Being brave means trying even when we’re not sure. 44 When we’re scared but still take one small step, that’s courage. When we fail but try again, that’s courage. When we say “I need help”, that is courage, too. We don’t need to do big things to be brave. Every time we face something hard instead of running away, we’re being brave. 45 Remember—feeling afraid doesn’t mean we’re not brave. What makes us brave is what we do when we feel afraid. Just take one small step, then another. That’s how courage works. A．We all have courage inside us. B．We never know what will happen next. C．Each time we do this, we grow stronger. D．It’s speaking when we want to stay quiet. E．They know everything and never worry or doubt. F．They are those who keep going even when they are scared. 第Ⅱ卷(非选择题 共55分) 第Ⅱ卷共26小题，请将答案按要求写在答题卡上。 四、词汇运用(本题共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分) 请认真阅读下面短文，根据语篇内容，在空白处填入括号内单词的正确形式，使短文通顺、连贯。 You must have been 15 years old.

The seeds of his China journey were sown when he joined a program for East Asian Art at London University in 1997. Back then, brushes and ink were not easy to get. Learning Chinese writing meant copying model books and using rice paper. He would practice a single stroke for hours to understand its beauty. “In those days, it was a real challenge,” he said. In 2006, with a high score in the official Chinese language test, he won a scholarship for a summer program at Beijing Language and Culture University. After finishing the study program, John was offered a Nanjing-based job as an art researcher. In 2008, the year Beijing succeeded in hosting the Summer Olympic Games, he got married. In the next year, he started to teach art at NNU. Life in Nanjing has been a wonderful adventure, especially as a witness to the great achievements China has made. It has offered him many chances for personal growth. Today, thanks to high-speed broadband and 5G, he can connect with students at NNU’s partner universities in the UK, France or Mexico while riding on the Nanjing subway. “When you open your eyes to these great projects, it is impossible not to want to be part of them or at least support them somehow,” he said. Although he was busy on teaching days, John applied for a full-time scholarship at the China Academy of Art. In 2022, at 44, he got his Ph.D．in fine arts. “I am quite interested in seal carving, and I know that China is quickly becoming the leader in traditional art research. So, I always write my articles in this area,” he said. “There is always time to follow your dreams unless you decide to give up,” he said. “Taking on seemingly impossible challenges and helping those around you are what makes life worth living.” 66．Who is John in this passage? 67．How did John learn Chinese writing in London? 68．When did John start to teach art at NNU? 69．What has offered John many chances for personal growth? 70．What can you learn from John’s experiences? 七、书面表达(本题满分25分) 71．假设你是九年级学生李华，你收到笔友Tom的来信。他在信中说他最近遇到了很多青少年问题，感到焦虑。请你给他回一封电子邮件，内容包括：1.表示理解他的感受；2.针对他的问题提出至少三条建议（如：向他人倾诉、做运动、制定计划等）；3.鼓励他积极面对问题。 要求： 词数90词左右（开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数）； 内容充实，语句通顺，书写规范。 Dear Tom, I’m sorry to hear that you are having some teenage problems. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours sincerely, Li Hua 2 / 19 1 / 19 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
