We often face a lot of confusion (困惑) at a young age. There are some of the teenage problems which can come out at every stage of life and those we cannot share with anyone except a few people. Let’s discuss these teenage problems. Uncertainty (无把握) About the Future The problem which is most common among all the teenagers is to choose the right career after school. Young people often find it very hard to choose the right career path, so parents and teachers should advise them on the right career field. Parents can also choose to take their children to experts for suggestions and the counselors (顾问) will advise them on the field according to their likes. Social Media Social media networking is most commonly seen among young people. It is like an addiction (上瘾) of youngsters to spend long hours on laptops and smartphones using social media sites. These sites also post some improper content which does harm to youngsters. The parents should check the activities of their children on social media sites often and suggest the ways to use them less often. Academic (学业的) Problems Many students face problems during schoolwork and exams in schools and colleges. The parents look after the studies of their children. They should sit along with them before exams and help them work out their problems. If your children go to the coaching class, then you should contact the teacher and ask him about the improvement (改善) of your child in studies. Eating Disorders The teenagers, especially girls, care more about their eating habits than guys. Because of the speedy life pattern and heavy studies and workloads, teenagers like junk food better which is quick to cook. It gives rise to many health problems such as indigestion (消化不良), food poisoning, and many other disorders.

Your Voice (不超过20词) What is your biggest problem right now? 9 How will you solve it? 10 Passage 2 （25-26九年级上·江苏南京·期中）阅读下面短文，根据所读内容，在文章后第1—6小题的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词，回答7—8两个问题。 As junior high students, we often face difficult moments: a math test we fail, a speech we struggle with, or a sport we can’t master. How we think about these challenges is important—and that’s where “growth mindset” comes in. A growth mindset means believing our abilities can get better, rather than being unchangeable all the time. People with a growth mindset usually focus on the process, effort and improvement not the result. This is different from a “fixed mindset” where people think “I’m bad at math” or “I’ll never be good at speaking”. With a growth mindset, you say, “I’m not good at this yet — but I can learn”. Let’s take school life as an example. Suppose you get a low score on a science quiz. A fixed mindset makes you feel angry and hopeless: “I’m just not a science person”. But with a growth mindset, you look at your mistakes calmly. You ask the teacher for help, redo the wrong questions, study those topics more and even use the colour therapy. Next time, your score might be improved! It’s not about being perfect now — it’s about trying to get better step by step. Growing this mindset isn’t hard. Above all, use the word “yet” often. Instead of “I can’t do this”, say “I can’t do this yet”. Also, when you face a setback, stay calm and don’t let your feelings like anger or sadness control you. Remember that mistakes are part of learning. Moreover, celebrate small progress. Cheer for your small steps forward after working out a difficult math problem. Having a growth mindset helps us not just in school, but in life. It gives us courage to try new things when we fail. So let’s start thinking “I can grow” — and see how far we can go! As teenagers, we often face difficult moments. Our 1 about hard situations matter a lot—and that’s exactly when “growth mindset” plays a role. The meaning of a growth mindset A growth mindset means thinking our skills can develop instead of being fixed forever. With a growth mindset, people pay more attention to how hard they try and how much they 2 instead of only caring about the result itself. An 3 of a growth mindset People with a growth mindset may face the mistakes in a 4 way. Go to the teacher, redo the wrong questions, study more and even try the colour therapy if he or she gets low marks in science exams. The methods of having a growth mindset ●Use the word “yet” often. Say “I can’t do this yet” instead of “I can’t do this”. ●Stay calm and control your feelings when 5 a setback. ●Celebrate small progress, like 6 one hard math problem. 7. What can a growth mindset give us when we fail? (No more than 8 words) 7 8. Your best friend often gets low marks in Maths exams. As a person with a growth mindset, please give him or her a useful method. 8 Passage 3 （25-26九年级上·江苏南京·期中）One of the biggest challenges in trying to achieve any personal goal is that you put them off until tomorrow, or next week. Unluckily, tomorrow never gets here. If you want to achieve a goal, you have to start on it today. Let’s learn some ways.     One goal at a time. Often the problem is that you try to take on too many goals at once. You have a lot of things you want to complete. Even two goals at once is difficult. For now, one goal at a time. Once that’s finished, you can go to the next one. Make sure you really want it.     Make sure you really want it. It’s not enough to say, “It would be nice to learn French” or “It would be cool to do yoga every morning”. It has to be something you really want. Ask yourself why you set this goal, and how much time you need to spend on it. That’s important to do early, or you won’t make time for it.     Keep it simple. It’s important not to make your personal goal too big. You don’t want to have a huge list of things to do. Instead, focus (关注) on a smaller sub-goal that will lead you to your bigger goal. Another way is to focus first on creating a habit leading you to your goal. For example, focus on forming the habit of walking each day. Once you’ve formed that habit, focus on drinking only water and then on eating fruits instead of junk snacks. And so on, until you’ve reached your goal.     Stay focused. One of the most challenging things to achieve goals is keeping your focus on that goal. You may be attracted by other things, and when you lose focus, you suddenly stop making time for the goal. Therefore, you had better put a poster on your wall, or make your goal your computer desktop picture. Also you can tell others about it and have them help you achieve your goal. How to Make the Time for Your Personal Goals What makes it 1 for you to achieve your goal is that you choose to put it off. However, time 2 for no man. Please start on your goal right now. Setting a goal at a time     You should 3 taking on too many goals at once.     Once you complete one goal, you can go to the next one. Making sure the goal is exactly what you want     Be sure to know the 4 for setting this goal and how long it takes you to achieve the goal.     You won’t make time for it 5 you do it early. Keeping it easy to reach     Begin with the 6 goals and develop a habit that will lead you to your goal step by step. 7 focused on it     Put your goal where you can see it 8 in order not to be attracted by something else.     Tell others about your goal and ask them to encourage you.

Finding your voice helps you feel strong and it also inspires (鼓舞) others. What does finding your voice mean? Finding your voice means building up the confidence to speak up and share your ideas. Being together in lessons, sports teams or any group activity is a chance to ask questions and exchange ideas with each other. To join in, you need to speak in front of other people, which isn’t always easy. When you put up your hand, everyone’s attention is on you—and you take the risk of saying something awkward or wrong. You may feel worried about this. Most people get nervous about doing things they find challenging. What are the advantages? If you’re in a lesson, speaking up is a chance to ask questions and share your thoughts. It also means you’re getting involved in active learning. This is when pupils work together to share ideas and solve problems. As well as making lessons more fun, studies show that active learning helps you understand more clearly and get better results in tests. Finding the strength to speak up also means you’re sharing your ideas, which could inspire someone else and give them the confidence to speak up too. How can I feel more confident? Author and confidence coach Tiwalola Adebayo says that finding your voice means facing fear bravely. “Fear is simply a negative (消极的) thought of something in the future that hasn’t happened yet,” she explains. “If you’re not sure something will go right,” she asks, “how can you be sure it will go wrong?” Another way to feel more confident is to speak to yourself kindly. You might tell yourself not to put your hand up in class because you’ll get the answer wrong and people will laugh at you. However, “You would never say that to a friend, so don’t say it to yourself either,” Adebayo says. “You are just as worthy of all the love and encouragement you give to your friends.” Finding your voice Definition Finding your voice means being 1 to speak up and share ideas in any group activity. It isn’t easy to speak in front of other people because     you may find it 2 to say something awkward or wrong with everyone’s attention on you.     most people might feel nervous when they do something 3 . 4 Asking questions and exchanging thoughts can help you learn 5 .     It makes learning more fun.     It helps us have a 6 understanding and get higher marks in exams.

She was born on April 3, 1934, in London. From a young age, Jane loved animals and wanted to know everything about nature. This strong interest led her to achieve great success in primatology (灵长类动物学). As a child, Jane wished to live in Africa with wild animals around. Her dream came true in 1957 when she visited a friend in Kenya. There, she met Louis Leakey, a famous scientist who studied early humans. Leakey was impressed by Jane’s passion and offered her a job to study chimpanzees in the wild. In 1960, Jane began her important research in Gombe Stream National Park. She was only 26 years old. With great patience, she watched the chimpanzees and wrote down everything she saw. Unlike other researchers, Jane gave the chimps names like David and Flo, which helped her form close relationships with them. Jane made several amazing discoveries (发现). She saw chimpanzees using tools—for example, using sticks to “fish” for termites (白蚁) in their nests. Before this, people thought only humans used tools. Her findings changed how we see animals and their intelligence. In 1965, Jane got a Ph.D．in Ethology from the University of Cambridge. What made this special was that she didn’t go to university before—her experience in the field was the best way she learnt. Besides, Jane started the Jane Goodall Institute in 1977, which works to save chimpanzees and their home. Over the years, Jane has received many awards for what she did to science and conservation (保护). She once said, “You have something in your power to make a difference. Don’t give up.” Jane Goodall—A Pioneer in Primatology Her early life ØJane Goodall was 1 about nature and animals. ØFrom a young age, she 2 of living close to wild animals.

Have you thought about what it will be like in high school? Are you ready for a fresh start in a new environment? Some students from the United States share their tips. Organize and plan your studies “The biggest thing is to stay organized,” says Philip Tubiolo, a graduate from Bayport High School. Tubiolo is now at Stony Brook University. He says that using either paper or online tools can help with your studies. “I would transfer paper notes online and make study guides. Everything was in one spot for finals and midterms.” Find your interests “I knew I was more of a science kid,” says Bayport’s Tubiolo. “I took AP ( Advanced Placement) Biology in 10th grade and I have loved biology since then.” AP classes are college-level classes that high school students can take.

He even decided on a college major (专业), although most students don’t need to make this choice so early. Tubiolo is studying biomedical (生物医学) engineering at his university. Find healthy ways to relieve (缓解) stress and have fun “It’s not just study, study, study,” says Roslyn High School student Todd Warshawsky. “I was a track (田径) runner. That was a stress reliever from study.” Sachem North High School graduate Erin Maryzek agrees. “Though schoolwork is important, you should have a little fun after a hard day’s study.” says the Northeastern University freshman.

Now, he spends most of his time doing the voluntary work in a community called Better Blue. The volunteers in Better Blue are not only made up of diving coaches like Liu, but also pilots, lawyers, doctors and so on. All of them should have the knowledge of the sea. Every year, 12 million tons of plastic waste flows into the ocean (海洋). Sea animals like turtles often lose their lives because of eating plastic or fishing nets. Even humans on land are affected because the fish we eat may have harmful plastic particles in their bodies. So the community Better Blue was started in 2017. It hopes to raise marine (海洋的) protection awareness among the public, invite people to protect the endangered sea animals and encourage people to think about how to make the ocean develop in a friendly way. Dive Against Debris is an activity organized by Better Blue to protect the ocean. The activity needs volunteers with greater diving skills.

The work also includes checking the kind of the area’s common rubbish, doing a research on why this kind of rubbish is the most and making suggestions to reduce the pollution. Marine protection is not limited to collecting rubbish. It also includes marine protection education. On weekdays, Liu volunteers to teach children marine protection in local schools. Volunteers like him teach marine science to make children realize that land-based rubbish can also pollute the ocean. Researchers from local universities also take part in such activities. With diving becoming popular, people are more willing to learn about marine protection. They come with their equipment, dive into the waters, get to know the underwater world and protect it.

There are many local Chinese operas and some enjoy great popularity. Among them, Beijing Opera is the most famous type of opera in China. In the beginning, Beijing did not have its own style of opera. According to legend, Emperor Qianlong (1711—1799) had seen and enjoyed some Huiban performances when he toured Yangzhou, Jiangsu Province. The word “ban” means an opera company, while the word “hui” probably refers to Anhui Province. There were many famous Huiban groups performing in Yangzhou, and they performed various opera styles, including Erhuang and kunqu. Since Qianlong had enjoyed Huiban performances so much, four Huiban groups were invited to perform in Beijing for Qianlong’s 80th birthday celebration in 1790, which proved successful. From then on, they lived in the capital, mostly performing for the palace, and then later also performing for the public. Over the years, Beijing Opera developed and changed, borrowing parts of other opera styles, particularly Kunqu Opera, which had been popular in the palace before 1790. Over time, it developed its own artistic style and a complete performing system (表演体系). It is now considered as the crown of Chinese opera. Singing, recitation, acting, and acrobatic fighting (唱、念、做、打) are the four artistic means and the four basic skills of Beijing Opera. Footwork (腿脚功夫) and other movements express the actions such as riding a horse, rowing a boat, opening a door, going upstairs, climbing a hill, or travelling. Beijing Opera is a number of stylized (非写实的) actions to tell a story or present different characters and their feelings of happiness, anger, sorrow, surprise, fear and sadness. There are many famous masters who are good at performing Beijing Opera. Among them, the Four Famous Dans—Mei Lanfang, Cheng Yanqiu, Shang Xiaoyun and Xun Huisheng are the most well-known. They are experts in performing the role of Dan and each has its own artistic feature. Their wonderful performances are still praised by many people. Beijing Opera is a prized form of theater in China. It continues to bring to life many ancient stories and heroes, which enchants (使陶醉) many Chinese people and foreigners with its artistic charm. As the most influential type of opera in China, Beijing Opera is an important form of expression of the traditional culture of the Chinese nation. It is sure that it is really the treasure of Chinese culture.

You’re not the only one. We did a survey of some kids, and the survey shows that 50% said they worry about their parents’ health, and that 75% of the kids would like their parents to make changes to be healthier. Maybe your mum and dad would be surprised to learn that you care about them. Here are the tips on talking to your parents about their healthy habits. ▲Create a list Try to remember what got you thinking about this topic. Is there an unhealthy thing you’d like to see them stop or reduce often? Is there a healthy habit like exercising or eating fruit and vegetables that you would like them to do more often? Get your list together. And also remember to put relaxing more and getting more sleep in your list—two great and healthy ideas for parents and kids! ▲ Practice how to say it Changing can be hard. And it’s not always easy to hear that someone you love thinks you need to do it. So you’ll want to bring up this topic in just the right way. If your parents wanted you to make a change, how would you like them to ask? A gentle and caring way often works best. ▲Make a decision together Once you bring up the topic, remember that both you and your parents should agree on what steps to take next. Picking many goals is not helpful to them. It can be overwhelming (难以承受的) if you try to make too many changes all at once. If your goal is too general, you don’t have specific steps in mind. ▲Cheer them on Encourage your parents as they start making changes. Tell them you’re proud of them. An extra hug or a home-made card can give them what they need to keep going down the healthy road. What a great way to show how much you care!

Like fingerprints, no two people share the same handwriting. Your handwriting can actually say a lot about what kind of person you are. Try writing out a sentence: The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. Then see what your handwriting says about you. Size of your handwriting Did you know that the size of your handwriting can represent the level of your self-respect and self-awareness (自我意识)? Large handwriting may show that you’re easy to get along with and you want to be noticed by others. On the other hand, small handwriting may mean that you’re shy and careful, and always pay attention to details. Medium-sized handwriting shows that you can get used to a new environment easily. Spacing between words Do you leave a large space between your words when you write? According to a study, the distance between two words can show how close or how far you feel towards others. If you write with wide spacing between your words, it may mean that you enjoy your freedom. On the other hand, people leaving narrow spacing between words may like staying with others. Slant (倾斜) of the words Did you know that the slant in your handwriting can tell how you treat people and things around you? Slanting to the right means you welcome or accept new ideas easily. And you consider your friends and family are more important than anything else. While slanting to the left may show that you think deeply about your own thoughts, feelings or behaviors. And you like to work behind the scenes better. If you write without slanting at all, you may be practical. Although the handwriting analyses (分析) are not always true, we can read them for fun. What matters most is you should write carefully. Introduction Different people have different handwriting. Your handwriting can actually say a lot about your personal qualities. Main body 1 The size of handwriting can stand for the level of self-respect and self-awareness you have. Large You are easy-going. You want to make other people 2 you. Small You are shy and do things carefully. You always pay attention to 3 . Medium-sized It is 4 for you to get used to new environment. Spacing The distance between two words can show how you feel towards others. Wide  5 with wide spacing means you enjoy being free. Narrow You dislike being 6 . Slant The slant of the words can show how you treat what’s around you. Right You are open to new ideas. You think your friends and family are the 7 important in your heart. Left You think twice before doing anything. You like to work behind the scenes. Straight You may be practical. Conclusion You can know the 8 between your handwriting and personality. Though it is not always true, just write carefully. From the passage, what can the size of your handwriting stand for? 9 The writer says “the handwriting analyses are not always true”. Do you agree with his idea? Why? 10 Passage 11 （25-26九年级上·江苏南京·阶段检测）阅读下面短文，根据所读内容，填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填一个单词, This is an unusual truth that anyone older than 25 will already know: as life goes on, time seems to speed up. Think back to childhood when holidays seemed to last forever, and you attended a school for what felt like decades. Now consider last year, by contrast, and it probably raced by. As those in their 30s and 40s will know, the effect gets worse with age—and, for people in their 70s, a year can flash by what seems like days. “Where did the time go?” we wonder. The best reason is that we can keep the important facts in mind longer when our brains have to process more information. Childhood and young adulthood are full of novelty (新奇)—the first time you rode a bike, had a romance, got a job—but, as we get older, things get more routine (常规). You can test this out by remembering a recent experience of novelty in your life, such as travel. A few years back, I went skiing for the first time, and that four-day trip still feels “long”. But I might have difficulty noticing a four-day period in my ordinary life. One way that can work things out, then, is easy to see: try lots of new things. Travel more, if you can, and to strange places. Try new hobbies and meet new people—you’ll be using your brain with a lot of effort, and the result will be a life that feels longer, more meaningful. But small changes work, too: even making a change in the route (路线) you take to the office, reading different kinds of novels, or choosing a different place to buy your sandwich at lunchtime will have an influence on your feelings. But novelty can only go so far. Besides, a fulfilling (令人满意的) life requires routine: you can’t build deep relationships, or rise through the ranks at work, if you always make new friends or get new jobs or even have new husbands or wives. That’s why the Buddhist teacher Shizen Young suggests another method: learn to meditate (冥想). Even a few minutes a day will get you to have better concentration (专注), and the better you get at concentrating, the more information your brain will take in during any experience, no matter how boring. You need to believe in yourself. You’ll be making your whole life a little more novel (新颖的). You’ll be more present and time will pass less quickly; in fact, you’ll make your life longer—without magic pills or creative medical technology. How to stop time 1 up The problem It is not a common truth to anyone who is over 25 years old that time seems to go faster as life goes on. The 2 you get, the faster time races by. The 3 of the problem When things become usual in our life, it might be 4 for you to pay attention to them, and so time passes by. So, experiencing something fresh and special can make you remember things longer. 5 on how to solve the problem ●It takes you a lot of effort to use your brain when trying new things, making you feel that your life is longer and 6 more to you. ●Changing something a little can also make a 7 to your feelings. ●Learning to meditate helps people 8 their concentration and take in more information from boring experiences.

It raises the risk of everything from the mild fever to serious diseases. Usually, we turn stress into the enemy. However, a study has given us a whole new look at it. In the study, if people with lots of stress don’t believe stress can be harmful to them, they will have the lowest risk of dying, including people with a little stress. Science shows when you change your mind about stress, you can change your body’s response (反应) to stress. How you think and act can change your experience of stress. When you consider your stress response helpful, you can create courage. When you are stressed and choose to communicate with others, you can create resilience (韧性). You can get away from the bad influences of stress on your health from time to time. The most amazing thing is that stress makes you social. Your stress response wants to make sure you notice others in trouble. You need to support and care about each other. Also, stress is not useless. It reaches your heart and makes it beat fast. It can bring you strength and energy. If you think of stress in a new way, you will trust yourself to deal with challenges. Of course, you don’t have to face them on your own. How do you make a choice between a stressful-life and a life without stress? Stress comes from in many meaningful things, so it’s really important to go after something meaningful in your life. Then trust yourself to deal with the stress that follows and make friends with it. How to change stress into your 1 Common thoughts Stress is not good for us and makes people get ill more 2 .

It’s a common belief that there are good and bad emotions, and that for successful emotion management, we must live a life free of the bad ones. But Ethan Kross, a famous expert on emotions, says this is wrong. He explains, “In the right proportions(比例), all the emotions are useful.” We can’t stop thoughts and feelings from popping up suddenly, but we can choose how to deal with them. Vicki Botnick, a therapist from California, agrees. She thinks we should try to manage our emotions, not hide them. Instead of pushing feelings away, we should accept them. Don’t call emotions good or bad—think of them as messengers that give you important information. It might be hard to do this. When strong feelings make you feel too stressed, try deep breathing (呼吸). Breathe in slowly, hold your breath for three seconds, and then breathe out slowly. Some people also find it helpful to repeat a simple sentence like “I am calm.” Avoiding problems and negative feelings all the time isn’t good, but getting distracted (注意力分散的) can help sometimes. After a big argument, you can either solve things right away or do something totally different first. When you come back to the problem later, you may have new ideas and a calmer mood. Another way to distract yourself is to change your environment. Going on holiday helps you relax because new places don’t make you think of work. If you can’t travel, try exploring nearby areas. A 2024 study review showed all 27 studies found nature helps with emotion regulation. If there are no green spaces near you, make your home nicer—add houseplants, pictures of beautiful views, or photos of family and friends. Learning to accept, reframe (重构), and manage emotions puts you back in the driver’s seat of your life. And if it feels hard, remember that no feeling lasts forever. Introduction Emotions cannot be 1 into good and bad. We can’t live a life 2 bad ones, but we can choose how to deal with them. Methods      3 emotions is a good choice. It may be helpful to take a deep breath or 4 simple sentences.     Getting distracted is another way. 5 dealing with problems right now.

Passage 2 （25-26九年级上·江苏南京·期中）阅读下面短文，根据所读内容，在文章后第1—6小题的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词，回答7—8两个问题。 As junior high students, we often face difficult moments: a math test we fail, a speech we struggle with, or a sport we can’t master. How we think about these challenges is important—and that’s where “growth mindset” comes in. A growth mindset means believing our abilities can get better, rather than being unchangeable all the time. People with a growth mindset usually focus on the process, effort and improvement not the result. This is different from a “fixed mindset” where people think “I’m bad at math” or “I’ll never be good at speaking”. With a growth mindset, you say, “I’m not good at this yet — but I can learn”. Let’s take school life as an example. Suppose you get a low score on a science quiz. A fixed mindset makes you feel angry and hopeless: “I’m just not a science person”. But with a growth mindset, you look at your mistakes calmly. You ask the teacher for help, redo the wrong questions, study those topics more and even use the colour therapy. Next time, your score might be improved! It’s not about being perfect now — it’s about trying to get better step by step. Growing this mindset isn’t hard. Above all, use the word “yet” often. Instead of “I can’t do this”, say “I can’t do this yet”. Also, when you face a setback, stay calm and don’t let your feelings like anger or sadness control you. Remember that mistakes are part of learning. Moreover, celebrate small progress. Cheer for your small steps forward after working out a difficult math problem. Having a growth mindset helps us not just in school, but in life. It gives us courage to try new things when we fail. So let’s start thinking “I can grow” — and see how far we can go! As teenagers, we often face difficult moments. Our 1 about hard situations matter a lot—and that’s exactly when “growth mindset” plays a role. The meaning of a growth mindset A growth mindset means thinking our skills can develop instead of being fixed forever. With a growth mindset, people pay more attention to how hard they try and how much they 2 instead of only caring about the result itself. An 3 of a growth mindset People with a growth mindset may face the mistakes in a 4 way. Go to the teacher, redo the wrong questions, study more and even try the colour therapy if he or she gets low marks in science exams. The methods of having a growth mindset ●Use the word “yet” often. Say “I can’t do this yet” instead of “I can’t do this”. ●Stay calm and control your feelings when 5 a setback. ●Celebrate small progress, like 6 one hard math problem. 7. What can a growth mindset give us when we fail? (No more than 8 words) 7 8. Your best friend often gets low marks in Maths exams. As a person with a growth mindset, please give him or her a useful method. 8 【答案】1．thoughts 2．improve 3．example 4．calm 5．facing 6．solving 7．Courage to try new things. 8．Ask the teacher for help and redo the wrong questions. 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了什么是“成长型思维”，以及初中生在面对困难和挫折时，如何培养和运用成长型思维来帮助自己不断进步。 1．文章第一段最后一句“How we think about these challenges is important”可推知结论，我们在困难处境中的想法很重要。此处需填入名词作主语，且谓语动词matter为原形，故需用名词复数形式thoughts。 2．文章第二段第二句“People with a growth mindset usually focus on the process, effort and improvement not the result.”可推知结论，人们更关注他们有多努力以及进步了多少。此处需填入动词与how much they构成从句。应填improve“提高”。 3．文章第三段第一句“Let’s take school life as an example.”说明，本段落主要展示的是成长型思维在学校生活中的一个例子，example“例子”符合语境。 4．文章第三段第四句“But with a growth mindset, you look at your mistakes calmly.”可推知结论，拥有成长型思维的人会以平静的方式面对错误。此处需填入形容词修饰名词way。calm“冷静的”符合语境。 5．文章第四段第四句“Also, when you face a setback, stay calm ...”可推知结论，此处表示当面对挫折时，when引导的状语从句中主语you与动词face是主动关系，省略主语时需用现在分词facing作状语。 6．文章第四段最后一句“Cheer for your small steps forward after working out a difficult math problem.”可推知结论，此处表示解决一道数学难题，介词like后需接动名词，且题目要求填入一个最恰当的单词，故用solving替换working out。 7．文章第五段第二句“It gives us courage to try new things when we fail.”直接给出答案，当我们失败时，成长型思维能给我们尝试新事物的勇气。题目要求不超过8个单词，即Courage to try new things. 8．开放性作答，结合实际，言之有理即可。参考答案为Ask the teacher for help and redo the wrong questions. Passage 3 （25-26九年级上·江苏南京·期中）One of the biggest challenges in trying to achieve any personal goal is that you put them off until tomorrow, or next week. Unluckily, tomorrow never gets here. If you want to achieve a goal, you have to start on it today. Let’s learn some ways.     One goal at a time. Often the problem is that you try to take on too many goals at once.

Make sure you really want it.     Make sure you really want it. It’s not enough to say, “It would be nice to learn French” or “It would be cool to do yoga every morning”. It has to be something you really want. Ask yourself why you set this goal, and how much time you need to spend on it. That’s important to do early, or you won’t make time for it.     Keep it simple. It’s important not to make your personal goal too big. You don’t want to have a huge list of things to do. Instead, focus (关注) on a smaller sub-goal that will lead you to your bigger goal. Another way is to focus first on creating a habit leading you to your goal. For example, focus on forming the habit of walking each day. Once you’ve formed that habit, focus on drinking only water and then on eating fruits instead of junk snacks. And so on, until you’ve reached your goal.     Stay focused. One of the most challenging things to achieve goals is keeping your focus on that goal. You may be attracted by other things, and when you lose focus, you suddenly stop making time for the goal. Therefore, you had better put a poster on your wall, or make your goal your computer desktop picture. Also you can tell others about it and have them help you achieve your goal.

Unluckily, tomorrow never gets here.”可知，实现个人目标最大的挑战之一是拖延，这让你很难实现目标，因此空处应填“困难的”。故填difficult/hard。 2．根据文章第一段“If you want to achieve a goal, you have to start on it today.”可知，如果想要实现目标，必须今天就开始，因为时间不等人，因此空处应填“等待”，主语time为第三人称单数，谓语动词用三单形式。故填waits。 3．根据文章“One goal at a time”部分“Often the problem is that you try to take on too many goals at once.”和“For now, one goal at a time.”可知，问题在于一次尝试太多目标，应该避免一次承担太多目标，因此空处应填“避免”，should后跟动词原形。故填avoid。 4．根据文章“Make sure you really want it”部分“Ask yourself why you set this goal, and how much time you need to spend on it.”可知，要确定设定这个目标的原因以及实现目标需要花费的时间，因此空处应填“原因”。故填reason(s)。 5．根据文章“Make sure you really want it”部分“That’s important to do early, or you won’t make time for it.”可知，除非早点做，否则不会为它腾出时间，因此空处应填“除非”。故填unless。 6．根据“Keep it simple”部分“Instead, focus (关注) on a smaller sub-goal that will lead you to your bigger goal.”可知，应该从最小的目标开始，逐步养成引领你实现目标的习惯。故答案为smallest。 7．根据“Stay focused”部分可知，本段主要讲述了要保持专注，且位于句首，首字母需大写。故答案为Staying。 8．根据文章“Stay focused”部分“Therefore, you had better put a poster on your wall, or make your goal your computer desktop picture.”可知，应该把目标放在容易看到的地方，因此空处应填“容易地”，修饰动词see应用副词形式。故填easily。 9．题目询问今年最想实现的目标是什么，可以根据个人情况回答，如：我想在考试中取得好成绩。故填I want to achieve good grades in my exams. 10．题目询问将如何实现目标，可以根据个人情况回答，如：我会制定一个学习计划并坚持下去。故填I will make a study plan and stick to it.

Finding your voice helps you feel strong and it also inspires (鼓舞) others. What does finding your voice mean? Finding your voice means building up the confidence to speak up and share your ideas. Being together in lessons, sports teams or any group activity is a chance to ask questions and exchange ideas with each other. To join in, you need to speak in front of other people, which isn’t always easy. When you put up your hand, everyone’s attention is on you—and you take the risk of saying something awkward or wrong. You may feel worried about this. Most people get nervous about doing things they find challenging. What are the advantages? If you’re in a lesson, speaking up is a chance to ask questions and share your thoughts. It also means you’re getting involved in active learning. This is when pupils work together to share ideas and solve problems. As well as making lessons more fun, studies show that active learning helps you understand more clearly and get better results in tests. Finding the strength to speak up also means you’re sharing your ideas, which could inspire someone else and give them the confidence to speak up too. How can I feel more confident? Author and confidence coach Tiwalola Adebayo says that finding your voice means facing fear bravely. “Fear is simply a negative (消极的) thought of something in the future that hasn’t happened yet,” she explains. “If you’re not sure something will go right,” she asks, “how can you be sure it will go wrong?” Another way to feel more confident is to speak to yourself kindly. You might tell yourself not to put your hand up in class because you’ll get the answer wrong and people will laugh at you. However, “You would never say that to a friend, so don’t say it to yourself either,” Adebayo says. “You are just as worthy of all the love and encouragement you give to your friends.” Finding your voice Definition Finding your voice means being 1 to speak up and share ideas in any group activity.

Leakey was impressed by Jane’s passion and offered her a job to study chimpanzees in the wild. In 1960, Jane began her important research in Gombe Stream National Park. She was only 26 years old. With great patience, she watched the chimpanzees and wrote down everything she saw. Unlike other researchers, Jane gave the chimps names like David and Flo, which helped her form close relationships with them. Jane made several amazing discoveries (发现). She saw chimpanzees using tools—for example, using sticks to “fish” for termites (白蚁) in their nests. Before this, people thought only humans used tools. Her findings changed how we see animals and their intelligence. In 1965, Jane got a Ph.D．in Ethology from the University of Cambridge. What made this special was that she didn’t go to university before—her experience in the field was the best way she learnt. Besides, Jane started the Jane Goodall Institute in 1977, which works to save chimpanzees and their home. Over the years, Jane has received many awards for what she did to science and conservation (保护). She once said, “You have something in your power to make a difference. Don’t give up.” Jane Goodall—A Pioneer in Primatology Her early life ØJane Goodall was 1 about nature and animals. ØFrom a young age, she 2 of living close to wild animals.

There are many local Chinese operas and some enjoy great popularity. Among them, Beijing Opera is the most famous type of opera in China. In the beginning, Beijing did not have its own style of opera. According to legend, Emperor Qianlong (1711—1799) had seen and enjoyed some Huiban performances when he toured Yangzhou, Jiangsu Province. The word “ban” means an opera company, while the word “hui” probably refers to Anhui Province. There were many famous Huiban groups performing in Yangzhou, and they performed various opera styles, including Erhuang and kunqu. Since Qianlong had enjoyed Huiban performances so much, four Huiban groups were invited to perform in Beijing for Qianlong’s 80th birthday celebration in 1790, which proved successful. From then on, they lived in the capital, mostly performing for the palace, and then later also performing for the public. Over the years, Beijing Opera developed and changed, borrowing parts of other opera styles, particularly Kunqu Opera, which had been popular in the palace before 1790. Over time, it developed its own artistic style and a complete performing system (表演体系). It is now considered as the crown of Chinese opera. Singing, recitation, acting, and acrobatic fighting (唱、念、做、打) are the four artistic means and the four basic skills of Beijing Opera. Footwork (腿脚功夫) and other movements express the actions such as riding a horse, rowing a boat, opening a door, going upstairs, climbing a hill, or travelling. Beijing Opera is a number of stylized (非写实的) actions to tell a story or present different characters and their feelings of happiness, anger, sorrow, surprise, fear and sadness. There are many famous masters who are good at performing Beijing Opera. Among them, the Four Famous Dans—Mei Lanfang, Cheng Yanqiu, Shang Xiaoyun and Xun Huisheng are the most well-known. They are experts in performing the role of Dan and each has its own artistic feature. Their wonderful performances are still praised by many people. Beijing Opera is a prized form of theater in China. It continues to bring to life many ancient stories and heroes, which enchants (使陶醉) many Chinese people and foreigners with its artistic charm.

Here are the tips on talking to your parents about their healthy habits. ▲Create a list Try to remember what got you thinking about this topic. Is there an unhealthy thing you’d like to see them stop or reduce often? Is there a healthy habit like exercising or eating fruit and vegetables that you would like them to do more often? Get your list together. And also remember to put relaxing more and getting more sleep in your list—two great and healthy ideas for parents and kids! ▲ Practice how to say it Changing can be hard. And it’s not always easy to hear that someone you love thinks you need to do it. So you’ll want to bring up this topic in just the right way. If your parents wanted you to make a change, how would you like them to ask? A gentle and caring way often works best. ▲Make a decision together Once you bring up the topic, remember that both you and your parents should agree on what steps to take next. Picking many goals is not helpful to them. It can be overwhelming (难以承受的) if you try to make too many changes all at once. If your goal is too general, you don’t have specific steps in mind. ▲Cheer them on Encourage your parents as they start making changes. Tell them you’re proud of them. An extra hug or a home-made card can give them what they need to keep going down the healthy road. What a great way to show how much you care!

Like fingerprints, no two people share the same handwriting. Your handwriting can actually say a lot about what kind of person you are. Try writing out a sentence: The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. Then see what your handwriting says about you. Size of your handwriting Did you know that the size of your handwriting can represent the level of your self-respect and self-awareness (自我意识)? Large handwriting may show that you’re easy to get along with and you want to be noticed by others. On the other hand, small handwriting may mean that you’re shy and careful, and always pay attention to details. Medium-sized handwriting shows that you can get used to a new environment easily. Spacing between words Do you leave a large space between your words when you write? According to a study, the distance between two words can show how close or how far you feel towards others. If you write with wide spacing between your words, it may mean that you enjoy your freedom. On the other hand, people leaving narrow spacing between words may like staying with others. Slant (倾斜) of the words Did you know that the slant in your handwriting can tell how you treat people and things around you? Slanting to the right means you welcome or accept new ideas easily. And you consider your friends and family are more important than anything else. While slanting to the left may show that you think deeply about your own thoughts, feelings or behaviors. And you like to work behind the scenes better. If you write without slanting at all, you may be practical. Although the handwriting analyses (分析) are not always true, we can read them for fun. What matters most is you should write carefully. Introduction Different people have different handwriting. Your handwriting can actually say a lot about your personal qualities. Main body 1 The size of handwriting can stand for the level of self-respect and self-awareness you have. Large You are easy-going. You want to make other people 2 you.

As those in their 30s and 40s will know, the effect gets worse with age—and, for people in their 70s, a year can flash by what seems like days. “Where did the time go?” we wonder. The best reason is that we can keep the important facts in mind longer when our brains have to process more information. Childhood and young adulthood are full of novelty (新奇)—the first time you rode a bike, had a romance, got a job—but, as we get older, things get more routine (常规). You can test this out by remembering a recent experience of novelty in your life, such as travel. A few years back, I went skiing for the first time, and that four-day trip still feels “long”. But I might have difficulty noticing a four-day period in my ordinary life. One way that can work things out, then, is easy to see: try lots of new things. Travel more, if you can, and to strange places. Try new hobbies and meet new people—you’ll be using your brain with a lot of effort, and the result will be a life that feels longer, more meaningful. But small changes work, too: even making a change in the route (路线) you take to the office, reading different kinds of novels, or choosing a different place to buy your sandwich at lunchtime will have an influence on your feelings. But novelty can only go so far. Besides, a fulfilling (令人满意的) life requires routine: you can’t build deep relationships, or rise through the ranks at work, if you always make new friends or get new jobs or even have new husbands or wives. That’s why the Buddhist teacher Shizen Young suggests another method: learn to meditate (冥想). Even a few minutes a day will get you to have better concentration (专注), and the better you get at concentrating, the more information your brain will take in during any experience, no matter how boring. You need to believe in yourself. You’ll be making your whole life a little more novel (新颖的). You’ll be more present and time will pass less quickly; in fact, you’ll make your life longer—without magic pills or creative medical technology. How to stop time 1 up The problem It is not a common truth to anyone who is over 25 years old that time seems to go faster as life goes on. The 2 you get, the faster time races by. The 3 of the problem When things become usual in our life, it might be 4 for you to pay attention to them, and so time passes by. So, experiencing something fresh and special can make you remember things longer. 5 on how to solve the problem ●It takes you a lot of effort to use your brain when trying new things, making you feel that your life is longer and 6 more to you. ●Changing something a little can also make a 7 to your feelings. ●Learning to meditate helps people 8 their concentration and take in more information from boring experiences. Conclusion Trust yourself. You can still live a bit more novel life, and experiencing the slow flow of time actually makes your life longer. Application The article suggests two ways to make life feel longer: trying new things and learning to meditate. Which way do you think is better for students like you? Why? 9 【答案】1．speeding 2．older 3．reason 4．difficult/hard 5．Advice/Suggestions/Tips 6．means 7．difference 8．improve 9．Trying new things, such as a new sport, a different hobby, or even a new way to study, can easily make our lives more interesting. Meditation can be a little difficult for us. We are often busy with homework and exams, and it might be hard to sit still and quiet our minds. Trying new things is more active and fun, which fits a student’s life better. 【导语】本文主要探讨了随着年龄增长，时间似乎加速流逝的现象，分析了其原因，并提出了通过尝试新事物和学习冥想等解决方案来让生活感觉更长久和有意义。 1．根据第一段首句“This is an unusual truth that anyone older than 25 will already know: as life goes on, time seems to speed up.”可知，对于任何超过25岁的人来说，时间似乎随着生活的继续而加速流逝，这是一个都心知肚明的另类真相。故填speeding。 2．根据第一段中“As those in their 30s and 40s will know, the effect gets worse with age—and, for people in their 70s, a year can flash by what seems like days.”可知，随着年龄的增长，这种效应会变得更糟——对于70多岁的人来说，一年可能就像几天一样一闪而过。因此，年龄越大，时间过得越快。故填older。 3．根据第二段首句“The best reason is that we can keep the important facts in mind longer when our brains have to process more information.”可知，最好的理由是，当大脑需要处理更多信息时，我们可以记住更重要的事实更长时间。因此，这里是在解释时间加速流逝的原因。故填reason。 4．根据第二段中“Childhood and young adulthood are full of novelty...but, as we get older, things get more routine (常规).”以及后文的例子可知，当生活中的事情变得平常时，我们可能很难注意到它们，因此时间就悄悄流逝了。故填difficult/hard。 5．根据第三段首句“One way that can work things out, then, is easy to see: try lots of new things.”和第四段首句“But novelty can only go so far. Besides, a fulfilling (令人满意的) life requires routine:...That’s why the Buddhist teacher Shizen Young suggests another method: learn to meditate (冥想).”可知，这里是在给出如何解决时间加速流逝问题的建议或方法。故填Advice/Suggestions/Tips。 6．根据第三段中“Try new hobbies and meet new people—you’ll be using your brain with a lot of effort, and the result will be a life that feels longer, more meaningful.”可知，尝试新事物和结识新朋友需要付出很多努力，这会让你的生活感觉更长久，对你来说更有意义。故填means。 7．根据第三段中“But small changes work, too: even making a change in the route (路线) you take to the office, reading different kinds of novels or choosing a different place to buy your sandwich at lunchtime will have an influence on your feelings.”可知，即使做出一些小的改变，比如改变上班路线、阅读不同类型的小说或选择不同的地方买午餐三明治，也会对你的感觉产生影响。因此，这里是在说小的改变也能带来不同。故填difference。 8．根据第四段中“That’s why the Buddhist teacher Shizen Young suggests another method: learn to meditate (冥想). Even a few minutes a day will get you to have better concentration (专注), and the better you get at concentrating, and the more information your brain will take in during any experience, no matter how boring.”可知，学习冥想可以帮助人们提高专注力，从而在任何经历中吸收更多信息，无论多么无聊。故填improve。 9．这是一个开放性问题，答案因人而异。可以根据文章内容和自身情况来回答。例如“尝试新事物，如一项新的运动、一种不同的爱好，甚至是一种新的学习方式，都能很容易地让我们的生活变得更有趣。冥想对我们来说可能有点困难。我们经常忙于作业和考试，很难静坐并让我们的心静下来。尝试新事物更加积极和有趣，更适合学生的生活。”，具体做法可能因个人情况和习惯而有所不同。故填Trying new things, such as a new sport, a different hobby, or even a new way to study, can easily make our lives more interesting. Meditation can be a little difficult for us. We are often busy with homework and exams, and it might be hard to sit still and quiet our minds. Trying new things is more active and fun, which fits a student’s life better.

Passage 15 （25-26九年级上·江苏南京·期中）阅读下面短文，根据所读内容在文章后小题的空格里填入最恰当的内容。注意：第1—8小题，每空只填1个单词；第9—10小题词数不限。 Sometimes, emotions (情绪) make you angry, cry uncontrollably, or green with envy. It’s a common belief that there are good and bad emotions, and that for successful emotion management, we must live a life free of the bad ones. But Ethan Kross, a famous expert on emotions, says this is wrong. He explains, “In the right proportions(比例), all the emotions are useful.” We can’t stop thoughts and feelings from popping up suddenly, but we can choose how to deal with them. Vicki Botnick, a therapist from California, agrees. She thinks we should try to manage our emotions, not hide them. Instead of pushing feelings away, we should accept them. Don’t call emotions good or bad—think of them as messengers that give you important information. It might be hard to do this. When strong feelings make you feel too stressed, try deep breathing (呼吸). Breathe in slowly, hold your breath for three seconds, and then breathe out slowly. Some people also find it helpful to repeat a simple sentence like “I am calm.” Avoiding problems and negative feelings all the time isn’t good, but getting distracted (注意力分散的) can help sometimes. After a big argument, you can either solve things right away or do something totally different first. When you come back to the problem later, you may have new ideas and a calmer mood. Another way to distract yourself is to change your environment. Going on holiday helps you relax because new places don’t make you think of work. If you can’t travel, try exploring nearby areas. A 2024 study review showed all 27 studies found nature helps with emotion regulation. If there are no green spaces near you, make your home nicer—add houseplants, pictures of beautiful views, or photos of family and friends. Learning to accept, reframe (重构), and manage emotions puts you back in the driver’s seat of your life. And if it feels hard, remember that no feeling lasts forever. Introduction Emotions cannot be 1 into good and bad. We can’t live a life 2 bad ones, but we can choose how to deal with them. Methods      3 emotions is a good choice. It may be helpful to take a deep breath or 4 simple sentences.     Getting distracted is another way. 5 dealing with problems right now. Do something else or return to the problem later to make us 6 down.     Changing the environment is also helpful, such as going on holidays, exploring nearby areas or 7 our homes with plants or pictures. Conclusion Learn to control our emotions and don’t forget that all the feelings will come to an 8 . How can we manage our emotions according to the passage? 9 How do you deal with your emotion when you feel angry? 10 【答案】 1．divided 2．without 3．Accepting 4．repeat 5．Avoid 6．calm 7．decorating 8．end 9．By accepting them, taking deep breaths, getting distracted and changing the environment. 10．I will take a deep breath and repeat “I am calm”. 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了情绪管理的正确观念以及几种具体的管理情绪的方法，如接受情绪、深呼吸、分散注意力和改变环境等。 1．第一段指出“It’s a common belief that there are good and bad emotions. and that for successful emotion management, we must live a life free of the bad ones. But Ethan Kross, a famous expert on emotions, says this is wrong.”可知，情绪不能被划分为好与坏。divide…into表示“把……划分为”，本句为被动语态，故填divided。 2．第一段指出“and that for successful emotion management, we must live a life free of the bad ones.”可知，我们不能过没有负面情绪的生活。free of等同于without，表示“没有”，故填without。 3．第二段指出“She thinks we should try to manage our emotions, not hide them. Instead of pushing feelings away, we should accept them.”可知，接受情绪是一个好选择。accept表示“接受”，此处作主语用动名词形式，句首大写，故填Accepting。 4．第二段指出“Some people also find it helpful to repeat a simple sentence like “I am calm.””可知，深呼吸或者重复简单句子会有帮助。repeat表示“重复”，or连接并列结构，和take形式一致，故填repeat。 5．第三段指出“After a big argument, you can either solve things right away or do something totally different first. When you come back to the problem later, you may have new ideas and a calmer mood.”可知，不要立刻处理问题。Avoid表示“避免”，此处是祈使句用动词原形，句首大写，故填Avoid。 6．第三段指出“When you come back to the problem later, you may have new ideas and a calmer mood.”可知，稍后再处理问题可以让我们冷静下来。calm down表示“冷静”，固定短语make sb. do sth.，故填calm。 7．第四段指出“If there are no green spaces near you, make your home nicer—add houseplants, pictures of beautiful views, or photos of family and friends.”可知，改善家居环境，用绿植图画装饰房屋。decorate表示“装饰”，or连接并列结构，和going、exploring保持动名词形式，故填decorating。 8．第五段指出“And if it feels hard, remember that no feeling lasts forever.”可知，所有情绪都会终结。come to an end为固定搭配，表示“结束，终结”，故填end。 9．根据文章第2、3、4段提到的方法（accept emotions, deep breathing, repeat sentences, getting distracted, changing environment）可总结出答案。 10．这是一道开放性试题，根据文章第2段提到的深呼吸和重复句子等方法回答即可。 2 / 24 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
