She used to work as a teacher in a rural primary school for more than 40 years. She never made much money, yet she helped hundreds of kids realize their dreams. She often says teaching means spreading hope rather than chasing fame. Even after retiring, she volunteers in the library and reads stories to children every weekend. I learn patience, kindness and selflessness from her. She lets me know a valuable life lies in serving others. Her spirit shapes my future choice. I hope to major in education in college and become a helpful teacher just like her. $ 2026-2027学年九年级上册英语单元自测 Unit 4 Life is beautiful·基础通关 学校:___________班级：___________姓名：___________分数：___________ （时间：90分钟，满分：120分） 一、单项选择。(本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) 1．—More and more tourists are coming to this small town. —Yes. Its old streets and local food are quite ________ to visitors. A．familiar B．similar C．attractive D．grateful 【答案】C 【详解】句意：——越来越多的游客来到这个小镇。——是的。它的古老街道和当地食物对游客相当有吸引力。 familiar熟悉的；similar相似的；attractive有吸引力的；grateful感激的。根据“More and more tourists are coming to this small town.”可知游客越来越多，推测出古老街道和食物对游客是有吸引力的。故选C。 2．—How does your new laptop ________ your old one? —It’s much lighter and runs a lot faster. A．deal with B．compare with C．agree with D．start with 【答案】B 【详解】句意：——你的新笔记本电脑和旧的相比怎么样？——它轻得多，运行也快得多。 deal with处理；compare with与……比较；agree with同意；start with以……开始。根据答语“It’s much lighter and runs a lot faster”可知，这是在将新电脑与旧电脑进行对比，指出新电脑的优势。应填compare with。 3．—Did the journalists get anything new about the company’s secret deal? —Yes, they managed to ________ some surprising facts. A．dig up B．give up C．make up D．take up 【答案】A 【详解】句意：——记者们得到有关公司秘密交易的新消息了吗？——是的，他们设法挖掘出了一些令人惊讶的事实。 dig up挖掘、发现；give up放弃；make up编造；take up占据、开始从事。根据上文“get anything new about the company’s secret deal”可知记者是在调查秘密交易，下文回答“Yes”表示“成功找到了事实”，“dig up facts”意为“挖掘出事实”，符合语境。 4．—Your sister is so outgoing. She makes friends wherever she goes. —Yeah. ________ her, I’m quite shy and prefer staying at home. A．Unlike B．Against C．Except D．Besides 【答案】A 【详解】句意：——你姐姐真外向。她走到哪里都能交到朋友。——是啊。不像她，我很害羞，更喜欢待在家里。 Unlike不像/与……不同；Against反对/倚靠；Except除了……之外；Besides除……之外（还）。根据答语后半句“I’m quite shy...”可知，说话者的性格与姐姐截然相反，此处是在进行对比，应用Unlike，符合语境。 5．—How do you feel about your new job, Mark? —Well, the pay isn’t high, but the work itself is quite ________, so I’m really ________ with it. A．satisfied; satisfying B．satisfying; satisfying C．satisfied; satisfied D．satisfying; satisfied 【答案】D 【详解】句意：——Mark，你觉得你的新工作怎么样？——嗯，薪水不高，但工作本身很令人满意，所以我对它真的很满意。 satisfied感到满意的，常修饰人；satisfying令人满意的，常修饰物。根据第一空的主语“the work itself”可知，此处修饰事物本身的特征，需用形容词satisfying作表语；根据第二空的主语“I”以及固定短语be satisfied with“对……感到满意”可知，此处表示人的主观感受，需用形容词satisfied，应填satisfying; satisfied。 6．— Are you busy now? Can you help me with this math problem? — Sure! Give me ________ minutes. I’ll be free soon. A．a couple B．a couple of C．couple of D．couples of 【答案】B 【详解】句意：——你现在忙吗？你能帮我解决这道数学题吗？——当然！给我几分钟，我很快就闲下来。 a couple一对/几个（后面不能直接接名词）；a couple of几个（后接可数名词复数，正确用法）；couple of几个（缺少冠词a，搭配错误）；couples of几对/几个（couples为复数，通常不用于此搭配）。minutes为可数名词复数，表示“几分钟”应用a couple of minutes。 7．________ peanuts teaches us to be plain and useful people. A．Grow B．Growing C．Grew D．Grows 【答案】B 【详解】句意：种花生教会我们做平凡且有用的人。 分析句子结构可知，空格处在句中作主语，谓语动词是teaches，动词作主语应用动名词形式。 8．—Bamboo is so strong that even a typhoon cannot break it.   —________. I agree with you. A．So it is B．So is it C．Neither it is D．Neither is it 【答案】A 【详解】句意：——竹子如此坚固以至于连台风都折不断它。——确实如此。我同意你的观点。 So it is确实如此；So is it它也一样；Neither it is确实不；Neither is it也不。“So+主语+谓语”表示“确实如此”，是对上文内容的肯定；“So+谓语+主语”表示“……也是如此”。根据“I agree with you.”可知，是同意对方的观点，表示确认事实，应用“So+主语+谓语”结构。选项C、D的Neither相关结构用于回应否定句，但前句是肯定句，直接排除。故选A。 9．________ enough sleep is important, and I found it really ________ to have a good night’s sleep after a long day at school. A．Getting; relaxing B．Getting; relaxed C．To get; relaxed D．Got; relaxing 【答案】A 【详解】句意：获得充足的睡眠很重要，而且我发现经过学校漫长的一天后，睡个好觉真的很放松。 第一空：此处作主语，应用动名词Getting，表示“获得充足睡眠”这件事，符合日常表述习惯；不定式作主语常表某次具体动作或将来的动作。第二空：固定搭配“find it + adj. + to do sth.”。此处it是形式宾语，真正的宾语是后面的动词不定式短语“to have a good night’s sleep”。形容词用来描述“have a good night’s sleep”这件事的性质，即这件事是“令人放松的”，应用-ing形式的形容词relaxing。 10．— I can’t believe we missed the last bus home! — ________. Now we’ll have to walk all the way in the rain. A．What a pity B．What a surprise C．What fun D．What a mess 【答案】A 【详解】句意：——真不敢相信我们错过了回家的末班车！——真可惜。现在我们不得不在雨中走全程了。 What a pity真可惜；What a surprise真惊讶；What fun真有趣；What a mess真糟糕。根据上文“missed the last bus”和下文“walk all the way in the rain”可知，错过了末班车还要在雨中走路，这是一件令人遗憾的事情，应表示惋惜。 二、完形填空。(本大题共15小题，每小题1分，共15分) 通读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后在各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中选出一个最佳选项。 What does it mean to be a responsible teenager?

In her opinion, being responsible is not a burden but a 25 to grow and learn. 11．A．making B．taking C．doing D．having 12．A．forgets B．decides C．refuses D．fails 13．A．care B．worry C．complain D．talk 14．A．help B．leave C．miss D．change 15．A．joins B．volunteers C．lives D．studies 16．A．stories B．letters C．newspapers D．poems 17．A．get B．make C．take D．have 18．A．late B．ready C．responsible D．famous 19．A．lazy B．quiet C．reliable D．funny 20．A．stick B．add C．reply D．turn 21．A．success B．challenges C．achievements D．surprises 22．A．unless B．although C．if D．before 23．A．play B．make C．put D．set 24．A．so B．because C．but D．or 25．A．chance B．problem C．mistake D．joke 【答案】 11．A 12．B 13．C 14．A 15．B 16．A 17．B 18．C 19．C 20．A 21．B 22．C 23．A 24．B 25．A 【导语】本文讲述广州14岁女孩张梅的故事，阐释一名有责任感的青少年意味着什么。 【详解】11．句意：对于许多年轻人来说，有责任感意味着做出正确的选择，并为未来考虑。 about为介词，后面接动名词形式，make good choices是固定搭配，意为“做出好的选择”，making符合语法要求。taking“拿”、doing“做”、having“拥有”均不符合固定搭配。 12．句意：她每天放学后都决定照顾弟弟，因为她的父母都工作到很晚。 decide to do意为“决定做某事”，主语she是第三人称单数，decides符合语境。forgets“忘记”、refuses“拒绝”、fails“未能”和文意相反。 13．句意：她并不抱怨这件事。 固定搭配complain about意为“抱怨”，结合后文她反而感到自豪，可知她从不会抱怨照顾弟弟这件事，complain符合文意。care“在意”、worry“担心”、talk“谈论”无法贴合语境。 14．句意：相反，她为自己能够帮助家人而感到自豪。 help her family意为“帮助家人”，贴合张梅承担家庭责任的行为。leave“离开”、miss“想念”、change“改变”无法体现为家庭分担的含义。 15．句意：张梅还在帮助老年人的社区团体做志愿工作。 volunteers in意为“在……做志愿者服务”，符合后文她每周看望独居老人的志愿行为。joins“加入”、lives“居住”、studies“学习”不符合志愿活动的含义。 16．句意：她给这位独居老人读故事，还帮忙采购物品。 read stories to sb. 是固定表达，意为“给某人读故事”，符合志愿者陪伴老人的场景。letters“信件”、newspapers“报纸”、poems“诗歌”不符合陪伴老人的常规行为。 17．句意：她说：“我享受这份志愿工作，因为我能给别人的生活带来改变。” 固定短语make a difference意为“有影响、带来改变”，情态动词can后接动词原形make。get“得到”、take“拿走”、have“拥有”无法构成该固定短语。 18．句意：在学校，张梅对自己的课题作业和家庭作业认真负责，总能按时完成任务。 固定搭配be responsible for意为“对……负责”，responsible符合语境，对应后文她从不拖延作业。late“迟到的”、ready“准备好的”、famous“著名的”无法和for构成该固定搭配。 19．句意：她的老师说她是一名可靠的学生。 前文描述她按时完成所有课业任务，reliable意为“可靠的”，是老师对她的评价。lazy“懒惰的”、quiet“安静的”、funny“有趣的”没有原文情节支撑。 20．句意：她回答：“我每天早上制定待办清单，并且坚持执行。” 固定搭配stick to意为“坚持、恪守”，and连接并列谓语，stick to it指代坚持执行自己的清单。add“添加”、reply“回复”、turn“转向”无法和to构成贴合句意的短语。 21．句意：当然，她也面临许多挑战。 后文提到她有时感到疲惫想要放弃，说明她在承担责任的过程中也会遭遇难题，challenges意为“挑战、困境”。success“成功”、achievements“成就”、surprises“惊喜”和后文想要放弃的情节不对应。 22．句意：她相信如果现在努力奋斗，她就会拥有更加光明的未来。 if引导条件状语从句，表示“如果”，连接努力当下和美好未来的逻辑关系。unless“除非”、although“虽然”、before“在……之前”逻辑关系不匹配。 23．句意：她还认为青少年应该在社会中发挥积极作用。 固定搭配play active roles意为“发挥积极作用、扮演积极角色”，情态动词should后接动词原形play。make“制作”、put“放置”、set“设置”无法构成该固定搭配。 24．句意：青少年应当积极参与社会事务，因为他们是未来的希望。 前后句子为因果关系，前半句提出观点，后半句解释原因，because意为“因为”。so“所以”、but“但是”、or“或者”逻辑关系不符。 25．句意：在她看来，承担责任不是一种负担，而是成长和学习的机会。 chance意为“机会”，和前文burden“负担”形成对比，契合全文主旨。problem“问题”、mistake“错误”、joke“玩笑”无法形成对比关系。 三、阅读理解。(本大题共20小题，每小题2分，共40分) A Once upon a time, there lived a girl in ancient China named Mulan. Her father used to be a general who was too old and weak to fight, but not too old to teach her how to ride a horse and use a sword. Girls usually did not learn these skills at that time. But Mulan’s father believed everyone should know how to fight, even girls. And Mulan also believed that girls could be as brave as men. One day, the emperor (皇帝) sent soldiers to Mulan’s village. Because war was coming, men were needed for the army. The military leader of the soldiers put up a list of names in the village square. Each name represented one man from each family. Mulan saw her father’s name on the list. She knew her father couldn’t fight in a war. Mulan’s brother was a little child. There was only Mulan who could take her father’s place. But the army did not take girls as replacements for fighting men. Quietly, the next morning, before her father could report for duty, Mulan stole her father’s armor (盔甲). She dressed herself up as a man. The soldiers accepted “him” in her father’s place. Mulan was very careful and fought as bravely as other soldiers over the years. No one found that she was a girl. When the war was over, Mulan received a special award from the emperor for her courage. The emperor gave her a horse and a bag of treasure. Her family greeted her with joy. Her brother was pleased with the gift of her military clothes. Mulan dressed once again in the clothes of a woman. That evening, Mulan and her family got together to watch the sunset. Two of the men who had worked with Mulan in the war stopped by her home on their way home. When Mulan greeted them, they could not believe their eyes. One of them shouted, “Are you really Mulan?” After recalling many moments, they finally believed that Mulan was a woman. They spread Mulan’s story across China and it inspired many young women, who wanted to ride a horse and use a sword. 26．What’s the correct order of Mulan’s joining the army? ________ a. Mulan stole her father’s armor and dressed herself up as a man. b. Mulan saw her father’s name on the list. c. The military leader of the soldiers put up a list of names in the village square. d. The emperor sent soldiers to Mulan’s village. e. The soldiers accepted Mulan in her father’s place. A．d-c-b-a-e B．d-c-a-b-e C．b-c-a-d-e D．b-a-c-d-e 27．The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refers to ________. A．the memory B．Mulan’s story C．the war D．China 28．The writer wanted us to learn about ________ in the story. A．care for old people B．fear of war C．women’s importance D．Mulan’s bravery 【答案】26．A 27．B 28．D 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了古代中国女孩花木兰代父从军的故事，展现了她勇敢、智慧和不输男子的精神。 【详解】26．根据文章内容，木兰从军的正确顺序是：皇帝派兵到村庄（d）→ 军官在村广场张贴名单（c）→ 木兰看到父亲的名字（b）→ 木兰偷走盔甲并扮成男子（a）→ 士兵们接受木兰代替父亲（e）。因此正确顺序为 d-c-b-a-e，故选A。 27．最后一段中“They spread Mulan’s story across China and it inspired many young women”中的“it”指代前文提到的“Mulan’s story”，即木兰的故事激励了许多年轻女性。 28．全文围绕木兰代父从军、在军中勇敢作战多年未被发现、最终获得皇帝嘉奖的故事展开，重点突出木兰的勇敢和坚毅，作者意在让读者学习木兰的勇敢精神。 B Life is beautiful, but it is not always sweet. Everyone will face trouble, sadness or loss. The beauty of life does not mean we never meet difficulties. It means we can still find warmth and hope even in hard times. Some people expect life to be perfect. When bad things happen, they feel disappointed and give up quickly. In fact, difficulties are also part of real life. They teach us to be braver and more patient. Small actions can bring beauty even in terrible days. You may talk with your trusted friend, enjoy a warm drink, or keep doing your small hobbies. These little things cannot solve all your problems at once, but they can bring you comfort. Remember: The beauty of life lies not in perfect conditions, but in our attitude towards life. It depends on whether we can love life and keep moving forward, no matter what comes to us. 29．What does life’s beauty really mean in Paragraph One? A．We will never have any trouble. B．We can find hope even in hard times. C．Everything in our life must be perfect. D．We can stay away from sadness forever. 30．What can difficulties bring us according to the passage? A．They make us give up all dreams. B．They teach us to be braver and more patient. C．They make our life completely terrible. D．They bring us lots of perfect conditions. 31．What is the main idea of the passage? A．Perfect life is the real beautiful life. B．We should stay away from all difficulties. C．Our attitude decides whether we can find life’s beauty. D．Small actions can solve all problems quickly. 【答案】29．B 30．B 31．C 【导语】本文是一篇议论文，探讨生活之美，告诉我们生活并非总是一帆风顺，面对困境的态度才是发现生活美好的关键。 【详解】29．原文第一段写明：“It means we can still find warmth and hope even in hard times.”，生活之美的真正含义是即使身处艰难时刻，我们依旧可以找到希望。 30．原文第二段写明：“They teach us to be braver and more patient.”，困难可以教会我们更加勇敢、更有耐心。 31．原文第四段写明：“The beauty of life lies not in perfect conditions, but in our attitude towards life.”，生活的美好不在于完美境遇，而在于我们对待生活的态度。 C Imagine this. There’s an apple and a piece of cake on a table. Which one would you like? The delicious cake or the healthy apple? A bestseller, Willpower: Rediscovering the Greatest Human Strength, suggests that willpower (意志力) is the ability to make decisions that are better for us in the long term, rather than in the short term. Here is a famous experiment in the book: the Marshmallow Test. From 1968 to 1970, Professor Walter Mischel tested the willpower of 600 four-year-olds to six-year-olds. In the experiment, each child was left alone in a room for fifteen minutes with a marshmallow (棉花糖) on a table in front of them. They were given two choices: they could either eat it or, if they waited fifteen minutes, they’d be given a second one(and then they could eat both). So, what did the kids do? Well, as you can imagine, 70% ate the first marshmallow within the fifteen minutes. But the other 30% showed willpower—they controlled themselves and waited for the second marshmallow. But then Mischel discovered something really interesting. Twenty years later, he got in touch with the children, who, by then, were in their early twenties. And he found that those who had strong willpower were getting better marks at university and were more popular. Willpower is like a muscle (肌肉), and the more you exercise it, the stronger it gets. So, if you do daily “self-control exercises”, such as making your bed or brushing your teeth, you’ll improve your overall willpower. And daily willpower exercises will help you with those bigger goals, such as studying for an exam or training for a marathon. Be careful though. Just like any muscle, your “willpower muscle” can get tired. If you’ve had to do lots of things that require willpower, take a break or give yourself a treat. That way, you’ll build up your willpower again. And one last thing, the writer mentions people who learn foreign languages usually have a lot of willpower. So, congratulations! 32．How does the writer start the text? A．By offering advice. B．By giving an example. C．By telling a story. D．By listing numbers. 33．How many children got two marshmallows in the Marshmallow Test from 1968 to 1970? A．180. B．240. C．420. D．600. 34．What can we get from the text? A．All the language learners usually have stronger willpower. B．Willpower can’t be improved by doing some daily things. C．Young kids don’t need to practise willpower like grown-ups. D．People with strong willpower can achieve their goals more easily. 35．Which of the following would the writer probably agree with according to the text? A．Practice makes perfect. B．East or west, home is best. C．Where there is a will, there is a way. D．The early bird catches the worm. 【答案】32．B 33．A 34．D 35．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了以棉花糖实验讲解意志力的定义、锻炼方式与作用，意志力如同肌肉可以通过日常小事不断变强，拥有意志力更容易达成目标。 【详解】32．根据第一段“Imagine this. There’s an apple and a piece of cake on a table. Which one would you like? The delicious cake or the healthy apple?”可知，作者通过举二选一的生活例子引出意志力话题。 33．根据第二段“From 1968 to 1970, Professor Walter Mischel tested the willpower of 600 four‑year‑olds to six‑year‑olds.”以及文章第 三段“Well, as you can imagine, 70% ate the first marshmallow within the fifteen minutes. But the other 30% showed willpower—they controlled themselves and waited for the second marshmallow.”可知，总人数600，30%等待拿到两颗棉花糖，600×30%=180。 34．根据第四段“And daily willpower exercises will help you with those bigger goals, such as studying for an exam or training for a marathon.”可知，意志力强的人更容易达成目标。 35．本文围绕意志力展开，强调了意志力的重要作用，棉花糖实验证明拥有意志力的人日后发展更好，意志力如同肌肉，可以锻炼强化，强大的意志力能够帮助人们实现远大目标。选项C“Where there is a will, there is a way. ”，will对应文中willpower“意志力”，指拥有意志就会找到出路、实现目标，契合全文主旨。 D Ordinary Heroes Many ordinary people live meaningful lives just like peanuts and Fan Jinshi. One of them is Zhang Guimei. She was born in Northeast China and travelled to poor mountain villages in Yunnan when she was young. Seeing many village girls had no chance to go to school, she made up her mind to build a free girls’ high school. For over twenty years, she raised money everywhere and worked day and night. She never cared about praise or fame. All she wanted was to help poor girls receive education. Just like peanuts that never show off their value above the ground, she devoted all her energy to others quietly. Thanks to her hard work, thousands of village girls could go to college and change their fate. Zhang Guimei never thinks she has done anything great. She believes every small effort can create value for society, as long as we stick to our goals and serve others. 36．Where did Zhang Guimei carry out her education work? A．Beijing. B．Yunnan mountain villages. C．Shanghai. D．Dunhuang. 37．Why did she decide to build a free high school for girls? A．She wanted to win much praise. B．Girls there couldn’t afford school education. C．She loved collecting donations. D．She planned to become famous. 38．How long has she stuck to this public service work? A．Over ten years. B．More than twenty years. C．Thirty years. D．Less than five years. 39．What’s the similarity between Zhang Guimei and peanuts? A．They like bright flowers. B．They chase high rewards. C．They create value quietly without showing off. D．They all work in cultural protection. 40．What is the main idea of the passage? A．How to build schools in mountains. B．Ordinary people can live valuable lives through silent devotion. C．The history of Dunhuang caves. D．Ways to get online praise. 【答案】36．B 37．B 38．B 39．C 40．B 【导语】本文通过讲述张桂梅的事迹，告诉我们普通人默默奉献，也能拥有有价值、有意义的人生。 【详解】36．根据文章第一段“She was born in Northeast China and travelled to poor mountain villages in Yunnan when she was young…she made up her mind to build a free girls’ high school.”可知，张桂梅是在云南的贫困山村开展她的教育工作的。 37．根据文章第一段“Seeing many village girls had no chance to go to school, she made up her mind to build a free girls’ high school.”可知，她看到许多乡村女孩没有机会上学(因贫困无法接受教育)，所以决定建立免费高中。 38．根据文章第二段“For over twenty years, she raised money everywhere and worked day and night.”可知，她坚持这项公益事业已经超过了二十年。 39．根据文章第二段“Just like peanuts that never show off their value above the ground, she devoted all her energy to others quietly.”可知，她与花生的相似之处在于默默奉献，不炫耀自己的价值。 40．文章标题为“Ordinary Heroes”，第一段提到“Many ordinary people live meaningful lives”，最后一段强调“every small effort can create value for society”，整篇文章旨在说明普通人可以通过默默奉献创造有价值的人生。 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的七个选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺、连贯，意思完整。 Different plants carry totally different cultural meanings in our textbook. 41 Roses have bright colourful petals but create little real value for people. 42 Peanuts look plain but hide fruit under soil and offer nuts and oil. Many people ignore ordinary volunteers around us. 43 If you always look for online likes, you will feel empty inside. 44 We can learn lessons from both flowers and peanuts and keep a right view of life. 45 A．Admiring plain ordinary workers teaches us true life value. B．Growing roses only brings beautiful outer appearance. C．Growing peanuts tells us to value inner silent devotion. D．Sunflowers love to show themselves to everyone in sunshine. E．Chasing public praise will never bring lasting satisfaction. F．Most students only pay attention to good-looking plants. G．We should balance appearance and inner spirit in life. 【答案】41．F 42．B 43．A 44．E 45．G 【导语】本文通过对比玫瑰与花生的不同特点，探讨外表与内在的价值差异，引导学生形成平衡外在美与内在精神的人生观。 【详解】41．第一段“Different plants carry totally different cultural meanings in our textbook.”为总起句，引出植物文化意义的话题。F项“Most students only pay attention to good-looking plants.”说明多数学生只关注外表好看的植物，引出下文对外表与内在的价值的讨论。 42．第二段“Roses have bright colourful petals but create little real value for people.”描述玫瑰仅有鲜艳花瓣但实际价值低，因此应匹配描述玫瑰外观特点的选项。B项“Growing roses only brings beautiful outer appearance.”强调种植玫瑰仅带来美丽外表，与原文“bright colourful petals”和“little real value”形成对应。 43．第三段“Peanuts look plain but hide fruit under soil and offer nuts and oil.”描述花生外表朴素但内在有益，空白前“Many people ignore ordinary volunteers around us.”将花生与志愿者类比，指出平凡劳动者的价值。A项“Admiring plain ordinary workers teaches us true life value.”强调赞美普通劳动者能体现人生真谛，与原文“ordinary volunteers”和“plain”呼应。 44．第四段“If you always look for online likes, you will feel empty inside.”指出追求网络点赞会带来内心空虚，与追逐公众赞誉无法满足的主题一致。E项“Chasing public praise will never bring lasting satisfaction.”说明追求公众赞扬无法带来持久满足，与原文“look for online likes”和“feel empty”同义替换。 45．第五段“We can learn lessons from both flowers and peanuts and keep a right view of life.”总结应从玫瑰和花生中汲取教训，保持正确人生观。G项“We should balance appearance and inner spirit in life.”提出应在生活中平衡外表与内在精神，是对全文主旨的提炼。 四、短文填空(本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) Fan Jinshi is a true peanut-like role model for all teenagers.

Her father used to be a general who was too old and weak to fight, but not too old to teach her how to ride a horse and use a sword. Girls usually did not learn these skills at that time. But Mulan’s father believed everyone should know how to fight, even girls. And Mulan also believed that girls could be as brave as men. One day, the emperor (皇帝) sent soldiers to Mulan’s village. Because war was coming, men were needed for the army. The military leader of the soldiers put up a list of names in the village square. Each name represented one man from each family. Mulan saw her father’s name on the list. She knew her father couldn’t fight in a war. Mulan’s brother was a little child. There was only Mulan who could take her father’s place. But the army did not take girls as replacements for fighting men. Quietly, the next morning, before her father could report for duty, Mulan stole her father’s armor (盔甲). She dressed herself up as a man. The soldiers accepted “him” in her father’s place. Mulan was very careful and fought as bravely as other soldiers over the years. No one found that she was a girl. When the war was over, Mulan received a special award from the emperor for her courage. The emperor gave her a horse and a bag of treasure. Her family greeted her with joy. Her brother was pleased with the gift of her military clothes. Mulan dressed once again in the clothes of a woman. That evening, Mulan and her family got together to watch the sunset. Two of the men who had worked with Mulan in the war stopped by her home on their way home. When Mulan greeted them, they could not believe their eyes. One of them shouted, “Are you really Mulan?” After recalling many moments, they finally believed that Mulan was a woman. They spread Mulan’s story across China and it inspired many young women, who wanted to ride a horse and use a sword. 26．What’s the correct order of Mulan’s joining the army? ________ a. Mulan stole her father’s armor and dressed herself up as a man. b. Mulan saw her father’s name on the list. c. The military leader of the soldiers put up a list of names in the village square. d. The emperor sent soldiers to Mulan’s village. e. The soldiers accepted Mulan in her father’s place. A．d-c-b-a-e B．d-c-a-b-e C．b-c-a-d-e D．b-a-c-d-e 27．The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refers to ________. A．the memory B．Mulan’s story C．the war D．China 28．The writer wanted us to learn about ________ in the story. A．care for old people B．fear of war C．women’s importance D．Mulan’s bravery B Life is beautiful, but it is not always sweet. Everyone will face trouble, sadness or loss. The beauty of life does not mean we never meet difficulties. It means we can still find warmth and hope even in hard times. Some people expect life to be perfect. When bad things happen, they feel disappointed and give up quickly. In fact, difficulties are also part of real life. They teach us to be braver and more patient. Small actions can bring beauty even in terrible days. You may talk with your trusted friend, enjoy a warm drink, or keep doing your small hobbies. These little things cannot solve all your problems at once, but they can bring you comfort. Remember: The beauty of life lies not in perfect conditions, but in our attitude towards life. It depends on whether we can love life and keep moving forward, no matter what comes to us. 29．What does life’s beauty really mean in Paragraph One? A．We will never have any trouble. B．We can find hope even in hard times. C．Everything in our life must be perfect. D．We can stay away from sadness forever. 30．What can difficulties bring us according to the passage? A．They make us give up all dreams. B．They teach us to be braver and more patient. C．They make our life completely terrible. D．They bring us lots of perfect conditions. 31．What is the main idea of the passage? A．Perfect life is the real beautiful life. B．We should stay away from all difficulties. C．Our attitude decides whether we can find life’s beauty. D．Small actions can solve all problems quickly. C Imagine this. There’s an apple and a piece of cake on a table. Which one would you like? The delicious cake or the healthy apple? A bestseller, Willpower: Rediscovering the Greatest Human Strength, suggests that willpower (意志力) is the ability to make decisions that are better for us in the long term, rather than in the short term. Here is a famous experiment in the book: the Marshmallow Test. From 1968 to 1970, Professor Walter Mischel tested the willpower of 600 four-year-olds to six-year-olds. In the experiment, each child was left alone in a room for fifteen minutes with a marshmallow (棉花糖) on a table in front of them. They were given two choices: they could either eat it or, if they waited fifteen minutes, they’d be given a second one(and then they could eat both). So, what did the kids do? Well, as you can imagine, 70% ate the first marshmallow within the fifteen minutes. But the other 30% showed willpower—they controlled themselves and waited for the second marshmallow. But then Mischel discovered something really interesting. Twenty years later, he got in touch with the children, who, by then, were in their early twenties. And he found that those who had strong willpower were getting better marks at university and were more popular. Willpower is like a muscle (肌肉), and the more you exercise it, the stronger it gets. So, if you do daily “self-control exercises”, such as making your bed or brushing your teeth, you’ll improve your overall willpower. And daily willpower exercises will help you with those bigger goals, such as studying for an exam or training for a marathon. Be careful though. Just like any muscle, your “willpower muscle” can get tired. If you’ve had to do lots of things that require willpower, take a break or give yourself a treat. That way, you’ll build up your willpower again. And one last thing, the writer mentions people who learn foreign languages usually have a lot of willpower. So, congratulations! 32．How does the writer start the text? A．By offering advice. B．By giving an example. C．By telling a story. D．By listing numbers. 33．How many children got two marshmallows in the Marshmallow Test from 1968 to 1970? A．180. B．240. C．420. D．600. 34．What can we get from the text? A．All the language learners usually have stronger willpower. B．Willpower can’t be improved by doing some daily things. C．Young kids don’t need to practise willpower like grown-ups. D．People with strong willpower can achieve their goals more easily. 35．Which of the following would the writer probably agree with according to the text? A．Practice makes perfect. B．East or west, home is best. C．Where there is a will, there is a way. D．The early bird catches the worm. D Ordinary Heroes Many ordinary people live meaningful lives just like peanuts and Fan Jinshi. One of them is Zhang Guimei. She was born in Northeast China and travelled to poor mountain villages in Yunnan when she was young. Seeing many village girls had no chance to go to school, she made up her mind to build a free girls’ high school. For over twenty years, she raised money everywhere and worked day and night. She never cared about praise or fame. All she wanted was to help poor girls receive education. Just like peanuts that never show off their value above the ground, she devoted all her energy to others quietly. Thanks to her hard work, thousands of village girls could go to college and change their fate. Zhang Guimei never thinks she has done anything great. She believes every small effort can create value for society, as long as we stick to our goals and serve others. 36．Where did Zhang Guimei carry out her education work? A．Beijing. B．Yunnan mountain villages. C．Shanghai. D．Dunhuang. 37．Why did she decide to build a free high school for girls? A．She wanted to win much praise. B．Girls there couldn’t afford school education. C．She loved collecting donations. D．She planned to become famous. 38．How long has she stuck to this public service work? A．Over ten years. B．More than twenty years. C．Thirty years. D．Less than five years. 39．What’s the similarity between Zhang Guimei and peanuts? A．They like bright flowers. B．They chase high rewards. C．They create value quietly without showing off. D．They all work in cultural protection. 40．What is the main idea of the passage? A．How to build schools in mountains. B．Ordinary people can live valuable lives through silent devotion. C．The history of Dunhuang caves. D．Ways to get online praise. 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的七个选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺、连贯，意思完整。 Different plants carry totally different cultural meanings in our textbook. 41 Roses have bright colourful petals but create little real value for people. 42 Peanuts look plain but hide fruit under soil and offer nuts and oil. Many people ignore ordinary volunteers around us. 43 If you always look for online likes, you will feel empty inside. 44 We can learn lessons from both flowers and peanuts and keep a right view of life. 45 A．Admiring plain ordinary workers teaches us true life value. B．Growing roses only brings beautiful outer appearance. C．Growing peanuts tells us to value inner silent devotion. D．Sunflowers love to show themselves to everyone in sunshine. E．Chasing public praise will never bring lasting satisfaction. F．Most students only pay attention to good-looking plants.

Will you leave angrily or argue with him/her? Two college students from Shijiazhuang acted differently. The story took place on March 24th, 2024. The two college students, Wang Haoran and Wang Ning, were on their way to school by car. Suddenly, the driver stopped the car and asked them to get off. That made them feel quite strange, but they had to leave. When they were about to call for another ride, they found that the driver didn’t cancel (取消) the order. So they turned back, only to find the driver was shaking with sweat (汗). Seeing that, they knocked on the window and asked if he was all right. But the driver was unable to say anything. They realized that the driver was in bad condition. Without thinking twice, they got into the car at once. Wang Haoran drove the driver to a clinic (诊所), and Wang Ning called 120. Thanks to the two students, the driver was sent to hospital in time. After treatment, he was finally out of danger. Later, his family came to the college to thank them for saving his life. The two college students won high praise for their kindness, bravery and calmness in a serious situation. And the driver had a strong sense of responsibility (责任) to his passengers. Their kind actions touched the hearts of many people. 66．What did the driver ask the two college students to do on their way to school? 67．Why did the driver do so? 68．What did Wang Haoran do after realizing the situation? 69．Who came to the college to thank the two students? 70．What are the two college students like? 七、书面表达(25分) 假设你是九年级学生李华，你校英语社团正在举办主题为“A Person Who Has Influenced Me Most”的征文活动。请你写一篇英语短文参赛，介绍一位对你影响最深的人。 内容包括： 1.这个人是谁 (家人、老师、名人等均可)； 2.他/她做过什么令你印象深刻的事； 3.你从他/她身上学到了什么品质； 4.他/她如何影响了你的人生选择。 要求： 1.90-110词； 2.语句通顺，意思连贯，条理清楚； 3.不得出现真实的人名、校名等相关信息。 A Person Who Has Influenced Me Most ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 试题 第3页（共8页） 试题 第4页（共8页） 试题 第1页（共8页） 试题 第2页（共8页） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026-2027学年九年级上册英语单元自测 Unit 4 Life is beautiful·基础通关 学校:___________班级：___________姓名：___________分数：___________ （时间：90分钟，满分：120分） 一、单项选择。(本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) 1．—More and more tourists are coming to this small town. —Yes.

Her father used to be a general who was too old and weak to fight, but not too old to teach her how to ride a horse and use a sword. Girls usually did not learn these skills at that time. But Mulan’s father believed everyone should know how to fight, even girls. And Mulan also believed that girls could be as brave as men. One day, the emperor (皇帝) sent soldiers to Mulan’s village. Because war was coming, men were needed for the army. The military leader of the soldiers put up a list of names in the village square. Each name represented one man from each family. Mulan saw her father’s name on the list. She knew her father couldn’t fight in a war. Mulan’s brother was a little child. There was only Mulan who could take her father’s place. But the army did not take girls as replacements for fighting men. Quietly, the next morning, before her father could report for duty, Mulan stole her father’s armor (盔甲). She dressed herself up as a man. The soldiers accepted “him” in her father’s place. Mulan was very careful and fought as bravely as other soldiers over the years. No one found that she was a girl. When the war was over, Mulan received a special award from the emperor for her courage. The emperor gave her a horse and a bag of treasure. Her family greeted her with joy. Her brother was pleased with the gift of her military clothes. Mulan dressed once again in the clothes of a woman. That evening, Mulan and her family got together to watch the sunset. Two of the men who had worked with Mulan in the war stopped by her home on their way home. When Mulan greeted them, they could not believe their eyes. One of them shouted, “Are you really Mulan?” After recalling many moments, they finally believed that Mulan was a woman. They spread Mulan’s story across China and it inspired many young women, who wanted to ride a horse and use a sword. 26．What’s the correct order of Mulan’s joining the army? ________ a. Mulan stole her father’s armor and dressed herself up as a man. b. Mulan saw her father’s name on the list. c. The military leader of the soldiers put up a list of names in the village square. d. The emperor sent soldiers to Mulan’s village. e. The soldiers accepted Mulan in her father’s place. A．d-c-b-a-e B．d-c-a-b-e C．b-c-a-d-e D．b-a-c-d-e 27．The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refers to ________. A．the memory B．Mulan’s story C．the war D．China 28．The writer wanted us to learn about ________ in the story. A．care for old people B．fear of war C．women’s importance D．Mulan’s bravery B Life is beautiful, but it is not always sweet. Everyone will face trouble, sadness or loss. The beauty of life does not mean we never meet difficulties. It means we can still find warmth and hope even in hard times. Some people expect life to be perfect. When bad things happen, they feel disappointed and give up quickly. In fact, difficulties are also part of real life. They teach us to be braver and more patient. Small actions can bring beauty even in terrible days. You may talk with your trusted friend, enjoy a warm drink, or keep doing your small hobbies. These little things cannot solve all your problems at once, but they can bring you comfort. Remember: The beauty of life lies not in perfect conditions, but in our attitude towards life. It depends on whether we can love life and keep moving forward, no matter what comes to us. 29．What does life’s beauty really mean in Paragraph One? A．We will never have any trouble. B．We can find hope even in hard times. C．Everything in our life must be perfect. D．We can stay away from sadness forever. 30．What can difficulties bring us according to the passage? A．They make us give up all dreams. B．They teach us to be braver and more patient. C．They make our life completely terrible. D．They bring us lots of perfect conditions. 31．What is the main idea of the passage? A．Perfect life is the real beautiful life. B．We should stay away from all difficulties. C．Our attitude decides whether we can find life’s beauty. D．Small actions can solve all problems quickly. C Imagine this. There’s an apple and a piece of cake on a table. Which one would you like? The delicious cake or the healthy apple? A bestseller, Willpower: Rediscovering the Greatest Human Strength, suggests that willpower (意志力) is the ability to make decisions that are better for us in the long term, rather than in the short term. Here is a famous experiment in the book: the Marshmallow Test. From 1968 to 1970, Professor Walter Mischel tested the willpower of 600 four-year-olds to six-year-olds. In the experiment, each child was left alone in a room for fifteen minutes with a marshmallow (棉花糖) on a table in front of them. They were given two choices: they could either eat it or, if they waited fifteen minutes, they’d be given a second one(and then they could eat both). So, what did the kids do? Well, as you can imagine, 70% ate the first marshmallow within the fifteen minutes. But the other 30% showed willpower—they controlled themselves and waited for the second marshmallow. But then Mischel discovered something really interesting. Twenty years later, he got in touch with the children, who, by then, were in their early twenties. And he found that those who had strong willpower were getting better marks at university and were more popular. Willpower is like a muscle (肌肉), and the more you exercise it, the stronger it gets. So, if you do daily “self-control exercises”, such as making your bed or brushing your teeth, you’ll improve your overall willpower. And daily willpower exercises will help you with those bigger goals, such as studying for an exam or training for a marathon. Be careful though. Just like any muscle, your “willpower muscle” can get tired. If you’ve had to do lots of things that require willpower, take a break or give yourself a treat. That way, you’ll build up your willpower again. And one last thing, the writer mentions people who learn foreign languages usually have a lot of willpower. So, congratulations! 32．How does the writer start the text? A．By offering advice. B．By giving an example. C．By telling a story. D．By listing numbers. 33．How many children got two marshmallows in the Marshmallow Test from 1968 to 1970? A．180. B．240. C．420. D．600. 34．What can we get from the text? A．All the language learners usually have stronger willpower. B．Willpower can’t be improved by doing some daily things. C．Young kids don’t need to practise willpower like grown-ups. D．People with strong willpower can achieve their goals more easily. 35．Which of the following would the writer probably agree with according to the text? A．Practice makes perfect. B．East or west, home is best. C．Where there is a will, there is a way. D．The early bird catches the worm. D Ordinary Heroes Many ordinary people live meaningful lives just like peanuts and Fan Jinshi. One of them is Zhang Guimei. She was born in Northeast China and travelled to poor mountain villages in Yunnan when she was young. Seeing many village girls had no chance to go to school, she made up her mind to build a free girls’ high school. For over twenty years, she raised money everywhere and worked day and night. She never cared about praise or fame. All she wanted was to help poor girls receive education. Just like peanuts that never show off their value above the ground, she devoted all her energy to others quietly. Thanks to her hard work, thousands of village girls could go to college and change their fate. Zhang Guimei never thinks she has done anything great. She believes every small effort can create value for society, as long as we stick to our goals and serve others. 36．Where did Zhang Guimei carry out her education work? A．Beijing. B．Yunnan mountain villages. C．Shanghai. D．Dunhuang. 37．Why did she decide to build a free high school for girls? A．She wanted to win much praise. B．Girls there couldn’t afford school education. C．She loved collecting donations. D．She planned to become famous. 38．How long has she stuck to this public service work? A．Over ten years. B．More than twenty years. C．Thirty years. D．Less than five years. 39．What’s the similarity between Zhang Guimei and peanuts? A．They like bright flowers. B．They chase high rewards. C．They create value quietly without showing off. D．They all work in cultural protection. 40．What is the main idea of the passage? A．How to build schools in mountains. B．Ordinary people can live valuable lives through silent devotion. C．The history of Dunhuang caves. D．Ways to get online praise. 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的七个选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺、连贯，意思完整。 Different plants carry totally different cultural meanings in our textbook. 41 Roses have bright colourful petals but create little real value for people. 42 Peanuts look plain but hide fruit under soil and offer nuts and oil. Many people ignore ordinary volunteers around us. 43 If you always look for online likes, you will feel empty inside. 44 We can learn lessons from both flowers and peanuts and keep a right view of life. 45 A．Admiring plain ordinary workers teaches us true life value. B．Growing roses only brings beautiful outer appearance. C．Growing peanuts tells us to value inner silent devotion. D．Sunflowers love to show themselves to everyone in sunshine. E．Chasing public praise will never bring lasting satisfaction. F．Most students only pay attention to good-looking plants.
