C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要介绍了传奇科学家珍·古道尔的一生。她致力于研究黑猩猩，改变了人们对动物和自然的认知，并创立研究所保护环境，激励了全世界的年轻人。 【15题详解】 句意：2025年10月1日，珍·古道尔研究所的创始人、联合国和平使者在加利福尼亚平静地去世，享年91岁。 后文“In 1977, she founded the Jane Goodall Institute”明确提到1977年她创立了珍·古道尔研究所，对应这里的身份是该研究所的创始人，应用founder。lover“爱好者”、educator“教育家”、director“主管”都不符合后文给出的事实。 【16题详解】 句意：珍·古道尔1934年出生于伦敦，她一生都在非洲研究黑猩猩。 固定搭配“spend time doing sth”表示“花时间做某事”，此处应填入动名词studying。to study是不定式、study是动词原形、studied是动词过去式或过去分词，均不符合此搭配。 【17题详解】 句意：在贡贝的丛林中，凭借惊人的耐心和敏锐的观察力，她消除了人类与动物之间的隔阂。 根据后文她的研究打破了人类对动物的固有认知可知，是消除了人与动物间的隔阂，“bridge the gap”是固定短语，意为“消除隔阂”，应用bridged。built“建立”、required“要求”、discovered“发现”均无法和“隔阂”构成合理搭配。 【18题详解】 句意：她给黑猩猩起名字，比如Fifi、Flo和David Greybeard，而不是给它们编号。 根据语境，起名字和编号是两种不同的记录方式，她选择了起名字而不是编号，应用rather than。because of“因为”、thanks to“多亏了”、according to“根据”均不符合逻辑。 【19题详解】 句意：在当时，这被认为是一种不科学的方法。 “be regarded as ...”是固定搭配，意为“被认为是……”，应用as。of“……的”、in“在……里”、for“为了”均无法构成该固定搭配。 【20题详解】 句意：她发现黑猩猩使用工具捕捉昆虫、吃肉，甚至表现出与人类相似的情感。 固定搭配“similar to”表示“与……相似”，此处指黑猩猩会表现出和人类相似的情感，应用similar。same需搭配the才能表示“相同的”，不符合此处用法；strange“奇怪的”、shocked“震惊的”均不符合语义。 【21题详解】 句意：她的研究表明，人类并不是唯一能够使用工具的物种，这更新了全世界的生物课本。 此处是非限制性定语从句，指代前文整句话的内容，只能用关系代词which引导。that和why不能引导非限制性定语从句；who指代人，不符合语法规则。 【22题详解】 句意：在科学之外，她成为了一个努力保护环境的人。 根据后文她创立机构保护野生动物栖息地、科普自然知识，可知她的工作核心是保护环境，应用environment。humans“人类”、chimpanzees“黑猩猩”、members“成员”都过于片面。 【23题详解】 句意：她的“根与芽”项目激励了120多个国家的年轻人去保护动物和地球。 根据项目的公益属性可知，是鼓舞年轻人投身环保，应用inspires。explains“解释”、causes“引起”、makes“制作”均不符合项目的正向引导作用。 【24题详解】 句意：联合国在2002年授予她和平使者的荣誉，以表彰她一生的努力。 根据前文“spent her whole life”以及“Even at 90, she traveled 300 days a year”可知，她为保护动物和环境付出了一生的努力，应用lifelong。different“不同的”、proper“合适的”、special“特殊的”均不符合语境。 三、阅读理解 阅读下面的短文，然后根据短文内容，在每小题所给的四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Horse Facts Have you ever wondered how horses sleep?

Twenty years ago we agreed to meet here tonight. He was my best friend and we grew up together here in New York, like two brothers. I was eighteen and Jimmy was twenty. The next morning, I was to start for the West. He thought New York was the only place on earth. We agreed that night that we would meet here again in twenty years.” “Interesting,” said the cop. “Have you heard from Jimmy since you went to the West?” “Yes,” said the man. “But after a year or two, we stopped. The West is big. I moved around everywhere and had to fight for my success. But I know that Jimmy will meet me here if he can. In New York a man doesn’t change much. So I came a thousand miles to stand here tonight.” The waiting man took out a fine watch. “Three minutes to ten,” he said. “It was ten that night when we said goodbye here.” “I’ll go on my way, ”the cop said, “I hope your friend comes all right. If he isn’t here at ten, are you going to leave?” “I am not! ”said the man. “I’ll wait half an hour, at least. If Jimmy is alive on earth, he’ll be here by that time. Goodbye, officer.” “Goodbye,” said the cop, and walked away. About twenty minutes later, a tall man in a long coat came hurrying across the street. “Is that you, Bob?” he asked, doubtfully. “Is that you, Jimmy Wells? ”cried the man at the door. “I never thought you were so tall.” “Oh, I grew a little after I was twenty. ” The new man took the man’s hands in his. “It’s Bob! It surely is. Twenty years is a long time. Come on, Bob, let’s have a good talk about old times. ” The two men started along the street, arm in arm. At the corner stood a shop bright with electric lights. When they came near, each turned to look at the other’s face. The man from the West stopped suddenly and pulled his arm away. “You’re not Jimmy Wells,” he said.... The man from the West opened the little piece of paper. His hand began to shake a little as he read. Bob: I was at the place on time. I saw the face of the man wanted by Chicago cops. I didn’t want to arrest you myself.

Solar (太阳的) energy lights the days, warms the air and land, and drives the planet’s climate. The simplest way to get energy from the sun is from direct exposure (暴露) to its rays. In ancient China, clothes and books were taken out of homes and placed in the sunshine. This helped reduce damage from moisture (潮湿) and insects. Another clever use of solar energy is in architectural designs. This can be traced back as far as 6000 years ago. During this period, homes were built with their openings facing south. This meant that even in winter, the low rays of sunshine would reach and warm their insides. By 2000 BCE, cities were designed with streets running east to west. This ensured that each house had a south-facing section receiving the most sunlight. The ancient Chinese also created clever tools to capture energy from the sun. One notable example was yangsui (阳燧), or the “burning mirror”. This bronze, concave fire-starting tool was first used during the Western Zhou Dynasty (1046-771 BCE). The ancient Chinese knew bronze to be a reflective metal. The concave shape of yangsui also demonstrates that they understood how to gather sunlight. When the rays hit the surface of yangsui, they reflected into a single focal point. The high temperature at that focal point was sufficient to set dry plant fibers on fire. Yangsui was a particularly useful tool for cooking Indeed, The Book of Rites described how at the start of each day, the son of each household would attach yangsui to his belt. This way, he could easily start the family fire. Nowadays, solar energy is used across the country in more efficient ways. Solar water heaters, which absorb (吸收) energy from the sun, have become popular in modern-day China. These water systems arc not only cheaper and more efficient than coal or wood-burning stoves, but also help reduce CO₂. Turning sunlight into electricity is another application of solar technology. In recent years, China has added more solar power capacity than any other country. In the northwest of China, there is a first-of-its-kind, panda-shaped solar power plant. It is steering the city of Datong —previously known as the “capital of coal” —towards a greener path. Consisting of 170, 000 panels, the “panda power plant” generates 80 million kilowatt hours of solar-powered electricity each year. This is equal to the total annual electricity consumption of over 30, 000 households. 31. How does the writer explain the use of solar energy from ancient China to the present? A. By providing examples. B. By giving causes. C. By comparing conditions. D. By listing numbers. 32. Which picture below shows the working process of yangsui? A. B. C. D. 33. The following paragraph can best go after ________ Heat from the sun was also used to preserve food, such as rice, fish, meat and vegetables —a practice that continues to the present day. A. Paragraph 2 B. Paragraph 3 C. Paragraph 4 D. Paragraph 5 34. What can we learn from the passage? A. In ancient China, people had no idea of using solar energy. B. China has been using solar energy for a very short period of time. C. Solar energy has recently been used in China in cheaper and greener ways. D. Ancient Chinese built homes with north-facing openings for more sunlight. 【答案】31. A 32. D 33. A 34. C 【解析】 【原文】本文主要介绍了太阳能相关知识。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据“The simplest way to get energy from the sun is from direct exposure (暴露) to its rays. In ancient China, clothes and books were taken out of homes and placed in the sunshine. This helped reduce damage from moisture (潮湿) and insects.”可知，作者通过提供古代到现代的例子来解释太阳能的使用。故选A。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据“One notable example was yangsui (阳燧), or the “burning mirror”. This bronze, concave fire-starting tool was first used during the Western Zhou Dynasty (1046-771 BCE).”可知，是一个青铜凹面镜子，故选D。 【33题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“Heat from the sun was also used to preserve food, such as rice, fish, meat and vegetables —a practice that continues to the present day.”可知，太阳的热量还被用来保存食物，如大米、鱼、肉和蔬菜——这种做法一直延续到今天。讲述了古人利用太阳能所做之事，与第二段契合，故选A。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Nowadays, solar energy is used across the country in more efficient ways.”可知，太阳能已经能够被有效利用，且以环保的方式进行，故选C。 四、单词拼写 根据句意和，写出括号内所给单词的适当形式。 35.

The next day he appeared with a letter, written in his “best handwriting”, asking Lego if he could work for them. He wisely shared that he’d be available to help with designing Lego after school, on weekends, and in the holidays—and that his sister would be keen to do the same. His mom put the letter in the mail but also tried to manage his expectations. She told Thomas that the company probably wouldn’t respond though Lego would appreciate his letter. According to Catherine, “He looked disappointed.” Then a package arrived from Christian Pau, the vice president and general manager of Lego U.K. and Ireland. Inside was a Lego kit (模型套装) and a handwritten letter that said: “Seeing my son light up with pride at the beautifully crafted (制作精美的) letter,” Catherine wrote, “was something I won’t forget.” And neither will Thomas. Christian Pau didn’t know how Thomas might react to his letter. He simply took the time to respond. It was a small moment to him, but actually a big moment for Thomas. As Catherine wrote, “Thank you… for making my son see that it’s always worth trying.” 55.

In my journey of growth, I have learnt a great deal. When I was young, I was so shy that I couldn’t talk with others freely and loudly. But as I grow, I learn to face fear bravely and am willing to make some new friends. (In Grade 7, I was afraid of trying something new. However, with my friends’ encouragement, I have become more and more confident. And I’m glad to take on new challenges any time.) When I have difficulty achieving the balance between hobbies and schoolwork. I often ask my teachers for help. First, I make a list of things I need to do and work out how much free time I have. Then I choose my hobbies according to the time. I can manage time better and get more organized. Looking back, I realize that growth is not just about getting taller and older. It’s about getting over difficulties bravely and learning to be independent. Also, it helps us learn to take more responsibilities and be a better person. Growth is like a path with ups and downs, but I’m ready for it. 【解析】 【详解】【总体分析】 ①题材：本文属于议论文写作，为材料作文； ②时态：时态以“一般过去时”和“一般现在时”为主； ③提示：根据图片提示完成写作，介绍你成长过程中遇到的问题和解决办法，你发生的巨大的变化和你认识到的成长的意义。注意要点齐全，无单词和语法错误。 【写作步骤】 第一步，开篇点题（已给出）； 第二步，具体阐述你在成长过程中遇到的困难和问题是什么，以及怎样克服和解决的； 第三步，总结你从问题中学到了什么和你认为的成长的意义。 【亮点词汇】 ① be willing to do sth. 愿意做某事 ② with one’s encouragement 在某人的鼓励下 ③ have difficulty doing sth. 做某事遇到困难 ④ ask sb. for help 寻求某人的帮助 【高分句型】 ① When I was young, I was so shy that I couldn’t talk with others freely and loudly.（when引导时间状语从句） ② Looking back, I realize that growth is not just about getting taller and older.（that引导宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 九年级上学期英语期中考试卷 一、单项选择 在A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 1.

A. how horses sleep B. where horses sleep C. when horses sleep B The cop suddenly slowed his walk. Near the door of a darkened shop a man was standing. As the cop walked toward him, the man spoke quickly. “It’s all right, officer,” he said. “I’m waiting for a friend. Twenty years ago we agreed to meet here tonight. He was my best friend and we grew up together here in New York, like two brothers. I was eighteen and Jimmy was twenty. The next morning, I was to start for the West. He thought New York was the only place on earth. We agreed that night that we would meet here again in twenty years.” “Interesting,” said the cop. “Have you heard from Jimmy since you went to the West?” “Yes,” said the man. “But after a year or two, we stopped. The West is big. I moved around everywhere and had to fight for my success. But I know that Jimmy will meet me here if he can. In New York a man doesn’t change much. So I came a thousand miles to stand here tonight.” The waiting man took out a fine watch. “Three minutes to ten,” he said. “It was ten that night when we said goodbye here.” “I’ll go on my way, ”the cop said, “I hope your friend comes all right. If he isn’t here at ten, are you going to leave?” “I am not! ”said the man. “I’ll wait half an hour, at least. If Jimmy is alive on earth, he’ll be here by that time. Goodbye, officer.” “Goodbye,” said the cop, and walked away. About twenty minutes later, a tall man in a long coat came hurrying across the street. “Is that you, Bob?” he asked, doubtfully. “Is that you, Jimmy Wells? ”cried the man at the door. “I never thought you were so tall.” “Oh, I grew a little after I was twenty. ” The new man took the man’s hands in his. “It’s Bob! It surely is. Twenty years is a long time. Come on, Bob, let’s have a good talk about old times. ” The two men started along the street, arm in arm. At the corner stood a shop bright with electric lights. When they came near, each turned to look at the other’s face. The man from the West stopped suddenly and pulled his arm away. “You’re not Jimmy Wells,” he said.... The man from the West opened the little piece of paper. His hand began to shake a little as he read. Bob: I was at the place on time. I saw the face of the man wanted by Chicago cops. I didn’t want to arrest you myself.

Which is the best title for this story? A. A Challenging Job B. Before the Arrest C. Two Good Brothers D. After Twenty Years C Nearly all life on the earth relies on one source of energy —the sun. Solar (太阳的) energy lights the days, warms the air and land, and drives the planet’s climate. The simplest way to get energy from the sun is from direct exposure (暴露) to its rays. In ancient China, clothes and books were taken out of homes and placed in the sunshine. This helped reduce damage from moisture (潮湿) and insects. Another clever use of solar energy is in architectural designs. This can be traced back as far as 6000 years ago. During this period, homes were built with their openings facing south. This meant that even in winter, the low rays of sunshine would reach and warm their insides. By 2000 BCE, cities were designed with streets running east to west. This ensured that each house had a south-facing section receiving the most sunlight. The ancient Chinese also created clever tools to capture energy from the sun. One notable example was yangsui (阳燧), or the “burning mirror”. This bronze, concave fire-starting tool was first used during the Western Zhou Dynasty (1046-771 BCE). The ancient Chinese knew bronze to be a reflective metal. The concave shape of yangsui also demonstrates that they understood how to gather sunlight. When the rays hit the surface of yangsui, they reflected into a single focal point. The high temperature at that focal point was sufficient to set dry plant fibers on fire. Yangsui was a particularly useful tool for cooking Indeed, The Book of Rites described how at the start of each day, the son of each household would attach yangsui to his belt. This way, he could easily start the family fire. Nowadays, solar energy is used across the country in more efficient ways. Solar water heaters, which absorb (吸收) energy from the sun, have become popular in modern-day China. These water systems arc not only cheaper and more efficient than coal or wood-burning stoves, but also help reduce CO₂. Turning sunlight into electricity is another application of solar technology. In recent years, China has added more solar power capacity than any other country. In the northwest of China, there is a first-of-its-kind, panda-shaped solar power plant. It is steering the city of Datong —previously known as the “capital of coal” —towards a greener path. Consisting of 170, 000 panels, the “panda power plant” generates 80 million kilowatt hours of solar-powered electricity each year. This is equal to the total annual electricity consumption of over 30, 000 households. 31. How does the writer explain the use of solar energy from ancient China to the present? A. By providing examples. B. By giving causes. C. By comparing conditions. D. By listing numbers. 32. Which picture below shows the working process of yangsui? A. B. C. D. 33. The following paragraph can best go after ________ Heat from the sun was also used to preserve food, such as rice, fish, meat and vegetables —a practice that continues to the present day. A. Paragraph 2 B. Paragraph 3 C. Paragraph 4 D. Paragraph 5 34. What can we learn from the passage? A. In ancient China, people had no idea of using solar energy. B. China has been using solar energy for a very short period of time. C. Solar energy has recently been used in China in cheaper and greener ways. D. Ancient Chinese built homes with north-facing openings for more sunlight. 四、单词拼写 根据句意和，写出括号内所给单词的适当形式。 35. The best way to be well-organized is to place things in ________ (顺序) of importance. 36.
