My grandmother always took me to the orchard (果园) on the hill. At that time, they had to carry water from the river at the foot of the hill to halfway up the hill. Even though we worked so hard, the production level of fruit was still low, because it was short of water there. One day, two young men led a group of workers to our village. They learned about the difficulties we faced, and later, canals (灌溉渠) and other projects began to be built in my village. “Who are they?” I asked. “They are good men from our government,” my grandma replied. Shortly afterwards, I moved to another city for my junior high school. The only reason I ever came back to my hometown was my grandmother. One day, my family and I made time to return. We were surprised because everything had changed. The canal ran past every orchard so villagers didn’t have to go up and down the hill anymore. The river was now so clean that fish swam happily in it. When we arrived home, my grandma took out some fresh pears and apples. She told us that after the water conservation project (水利工程) was completed, a policy (政策) was made to encourage more people to increase the fruit production with clean water in the river. Thanks to those good men who have devoted themselves to the development of our countryside. Nowadays, people work hard to live in a big city.

It was all because of a childhood accident-falling into a pond and struggling (挣扎) to breathe. Years passed, and the fear remained. In PE class, while her classmates laughed and jumped into the pool, Lily just sat on the bench. Her teacher, Ms. Carter, noticed her and asked her the reason. Knowing what happened to her, Ms. Carter decided to help Lily. One weekend, Ms. Carter invited Lily to a swimming club. At first, Lily only dipped (浸) her toes in. Then Ms. Carter encouraged her to hold onto the poolside and kick her legs. “Focus on the movement, not the fear,” she said. Each day, Lily challenged herself to do a little more. During the practice, Lily felt nervous. Her arms flailed (摆), and water filled her mouth. But instead of giving up, she remembered Ms. Carter’s words and calmed down. Lily made it back to the surface. From then on, she made slow, small progress. Months later, Lily surprised everyone. She signed up for the school swimming competition. At the final, as she jumped into the pool, she felt no fear but exhilaration. She swam faster and faster like a fish. As Lily touched the finishing line, a thought struck her: fear isn’t something to be avoided but something to be faced. Just like learning to swim, dealing with challenges requires taking small steps, believing in oneself, and never giving up. The pool once was a fear in her mind, but now it is a place where she found freedom. 根据语篇内容,选择正确的答案。 76．What made Lily fear water? A．A childhood accident. B．A swimming competition.

He has been making Longjing tea for more than forty years. Longjing tea leaves are famous for their color, taste and shape. “You have to touch the leaves with your hands to feel how much water should be removed (去除),” Fan said.“If we remove too much water, the leaves will break into pieces. But if not, the tea will taste bitter (苦的).” This traditional technique dates back (追溯) to the Ming and Qing dynasties. It not only makes the tea taste good, but also has become an important part of Chinese tea culture. However, more people are using machines to do the job nowadays.“It’s easier but the quality is not good,” Fan said.“Machine-made tea floats (浮) longer in water and tastes more bitter.” In March last year, when President Xi Jinping visited Hangzhou, he watched Fan roast tea. Fan changed the strength and movement of his hands as he roasted leaves. His skill was highly praised. The things made by two palms (手掌) cannot be replaced by modern technology. Fan is now teaching some young men. His son, a college graduate, is one of them.“It’s a famous traditional technique.

Passage 8 （广西壮族自治区南宁市天桃实验学校2025-2026学年九年级上学期期中英语试题）Many high school students in Hong Kong would like to take part-time jobs to make money during the summer holiday. However, I chose a different way: I joined the Care and Community Project in a poor country in East Africa. Each day, we would travel to a school to teach the children simple English and math. Although the classrooms were small, the students would always sit quietly, waiting for their teachers to arrive, and their strong wish to learn new things was clearly easy to see. There was a girl named Afia who had trouble writing the number six. So I took her hand and showed her how to write it step by step. After trying many times, she finally succeeded in writing it by herself. I felt very proud of her, and it seemed that my help had made a great difference in her life. Besides teaching, we also worked together to fix the school’s dining hall. This was really hard because we had to work under the hot sun, where the temperature was very high. Even so, we never slowed down or gave up, for we all knew that the work we did would create a better place for the children to learn and grow. I know that my two-week stay in Africa may not have caused big changes to the school or the children’s lives. But I do believe that the small things I did were able to help them in some way.

Swimming, running? Bob likes climbing very much. However, there wasn’t a climbing club in his school at first, so he felt sad. At the beginning of the second year of middle school, his school offered rock climbing lessons in order to encourage students to exercise. He was so happy that he joined at once. In the first lesson, the coach (教练) said, “Rock climbing needs strength, speed, courage and persistence (坚持). All these are necessary.” But in Bob’s opinion, rock climbing was just a fun activity. It interested him. During the following classes, the coach asked the students to run 1,000 metres first, and then climb with a rope. When Bob finished running, he almost lost his breath (呼吸) and got bored, and he even did not want to touch the rope. He thought it was less interesting than before. The coach noticed that and asked him, “Why do you want to take rock climbing lessons?” “For fun, of course.” “Is that fun?” he asked. Bob shook his head slowly. The coach then explained patiently, “That’s because you stop halfway. You know, beautiful sights are always on the top.” After hearing the words, Bob made up his mind to finish his journey. When he got to the top in the end, he felt really excited. Sometimes it’s hard to reach the top of the mountain, but it’s a pity to stop halfway, so don’t give up. 根据语篇内容，选择最佳选项。 11．Why did Bob feel sad at first? A．Because he liked climbing. B．Because there was no climbing club in his school. C．Because he didn’t have any friends. 12．How far did the coach ask the students to run first in the rock climbing lessons? A．100 metres. B．100 kilometres. C．1,000 metres. 13．What does the underlined word “it” refer to in Paragraph 4? A．Running. B．Rock climbing. C．Taking lessons. 14．How did Bob’s feelings change according to the passage? A．Sad→happy→bored→excited. B．Excited→sad→bored→happy. C．Happy→sad→excited→bored. 15．What can we learn from this passage? A．Climbing is not interesting. B．It’s a pity to stop halfway, so don’t give up. C．Running is more important than climbing. 【答案】11．B 12．C 13．B 14．A 15．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了男孩Bob学习攀岩的经历。 【详解】11．根据第一段“However, there wasn’t one climbing club in his school at first, so he felt sad.”可知，Bob起初感到难过是因为学校里当时没有攀岩俱乐部。 12．根据第四段“During the following classes, the coach asked the students to run 1,000 metres first...”可知，教练要求学生们先跑1000米。 13．根据第四段语境，Bob跑完步后觉得累且无聊，甚至不想碰绳子，紧接着文中提到“He thought it was less interesting than before.”。这里的“it”指代的是他原本非常喜欢的“攀岩运动”本身，因为他原本认为攀岩只是有趣的活动，但现在觉得没意思了。 14．梳理Bob的情感变化线索：第一段：“so he felt sad”；第二段：“He was so happy that he joined at once”；第四段：“got bored... thought it was less interesting”；第五段：“he felt really excited”。因此，顺序为：Sad→Happy→Bored→Excited。 15．文章最后一段点明了主旨：“Sometimes it’s hard to reach the top of the mountain, but it’s a pity to stop halfway, so don’t give up.”，可知有时候到达山顶很难，但半途而废很可惜，所以不要放弃。 Passage 4 （广西壮族自治区南宁市江南区联盟校2025-2026学年九年级上学期11月期中英语试题）Some kids hate being home alone—they feel bored or even scared (惊恐的). But I see it as a super chance to learn to do things by myself. Last month, my parents went to Shanghai on business for three days. “Cook simple meals, feed Ah-Fu, and don’t stay up late,” Dad said. “We trust you!” On the first day, I tried to cook eggs, but I forgot to turn down the heat, so they turned black. “Yuck!” I said. I ended up eating some biscuits and bananas instead. What was worse, I forgot to give the cat, Ah-Fu, her lunch. She looked at me with big green eyes, as if she were saying, “Bad food, no care!” The next day started better. I remembered to feed Ah-Fu in the morning, but after school, I got lost in playing a video game and forgot Ah-Fu’s lunch again. She cried loudly “Miao!” and walked round my feet again and again. I felt very sorry and gave her more fish snacks. On the third day, I set an alarm for 6:30 a.m. and cooked eggs again. This time they were perfect. Both Ah-Fu and I finished our breakfast happily and I even cleaned the kitchen! When Mom and Dad came back, they saw the clean floor and Ah-Fu’s full bowl. Mom hugged me proudly and said, “Our son can look after himself now!” Now I love being home alone—it makes me confident and shows I am already growing up! 根据语篇内容，选择最佳选项。 16．How long was the writer home alone according to the passage?

My beauty is so fantastic that no one can think of you at sunrise or sunset.” Red shouted out, “I’m the ruler (统治者) of you. I’m the colour of life and love.

They just listen and follow.” Finally, indigo spoke slowly. “I stand for thought and reflection (反省). Yet all of you just need them.” Suddenly, the sky became dark and rain started to pour down. The colours all gathered (聚集) in fear. Rain began to speak, “Join hands and come to me.” The colours did as they were told. Rain added, “Don’t you know you each are made for a certain purpose?

He wanted to raise $1,000 for charities (慈善机构). Now, five years later, Arsh has sold 500 paintings and brought in $15,000. Almost every dollar of this income (收入) has gone to charities. When Arsh was a little boy, his parents introduced him to many activities. The boy, however, was interested in none of them. Things changed when he got a watercolor set for his eighth birthday. Arsh began to spend all his free time in front of an easel (画架). “That was how I started painting.” he said. Soon, Arsh finished many paintings. They took up a lot of space in his room. The boy decided to give them away to his friends. Around the same time, Arsh visited a nursing home (养老院). The experience made him think about selling his artworks to help other people. So he began his money-raising project. He sells his paintings at local art shows, restaurants and libraries, as well as on the Internet. He sells small pieces for $10 each and larger ones (about 150 cm tall and wide) for more than $800 each. “How amazing Arsh is!” said Jolene Schaver, one of Arsh’s neighbors. “It’s hard to believe that this is being done by a child.” The woman has five of Arsh’s paintings hanging in her home.

It was all because of a childhood accident-falling into a pond and struggling (挣扎) to breathe. Years passed, and the fear remained. In PE class, while her classmates laughed and jumped into the pool, Lily just sat on the bench. Her teacher, Ms. Carter, noticed her and asked her the reason. Knowing what happened to her, Ms. Carter decided to help Lily. One weekend, Ms. Carter invited Lily to a swimming club. At first, Lily only dipped (浸) her toes in. Then Ms. Carter encouraged her to hold onto the poolside and kick her legs. “Focus on the movement, not the fear,” she said. Each day, Lily challenged herself to do a little more. During the practice, Lily felt nervous. Her arms flailed (摆), and water filled her mouth. But instead of giving up, she remembered Ms. Carter’s words and calmed down. Lily made it back to the surface. From then on, she made slow, small progress. Months later, Lily surprised everyone. She signed up for the school swimming competition. At the final, as she jumped into the pool, she felt no fear but exhilaration. She swam faster and faster like a fish. As Lily touched the finishing line, a thought struck her: fear isn’t something to be avoided but something to be faced.

However, I chose a different way: I joined the Care and Community Project in a poor country in East Africa. Each day, we would travel to a school to teach the children simple English and math. Although the classrooms were small, the students would always sit quietly, waiting for their teachers to arrive, and their strong wish to learn new things was clearly easy to see. There was a girl named Afia who had trouble writing the number six. So I took her hand and showed her how to write it step by step. After trying many times, she finally succeeded in writing it by herself. I felt very proud of her, and it seemed that my help had made a great difference in her life. Besides teaching, we also worked together to fix the school’s dining hall. This was really hard because we had to work under the hot sun, where the temperature was very high. Even so, we never slowed down or gave up, for we all knew that the work we did would create a better place for the children to learn and grow. I know that my two-week stay in Africa may not have caused big changes to the school or the children’s lives. But I do believe that the small things I did were able to help them in some way.
