When she got her admission letter from Wuhan University, she could 1 believe it. Tian is from a remote mountain village in Hubei Province. In recent years, few students there have entered top universities in China. What makes her story more 2 is that she was born with osteogenesis imperfecta (成骨不全症). Even a light bump could bring her 3 and she needs months to recover (恢复). Most of her childhood was spent indoors. 4 Tian couldn’t go to primary school, she turned to books for joy. “Words can take me to places my body can’t reach,” she said. “Even if I stay still, my 5 can fly freely.” Yuan Hui, a volunteer teacher who taught her at home, said Tian was very 6 in learning. She never used “secret study skills”. 7 , she got good grades by watching life carefully—she noticed the smell of soil after rain and the shape of flowers by the road. In junior high school, Tian finally went back to the classroom. She slowly became more 8 and made friends. Her 9 also came from teachers’ support. For six years when she couldn’t go to school, her teacher, Mr. Yuan, walked miles on mountain roads to teach her, no matter if it rained or snowed. He even 10 better-paid jobs, saying, “If I don’t help her, no one will.” Now, she gets ready for college and hopes to join student clubs, learn to live on her own and, most importantly, gain knowledge to help others later. 1．A．nearly B．hardly C．certainly D．rarely 2．A．special B．interesting C．common D．boring 3．A．sadness B．happiness C．pain D．joy 4．A．Since B．While C．If D．Until 5．A．books B．action C．study D．thoughts 6．A．confident B．generous C．active D．modest 7．A．Therefore B．Moreover C．Otherwise D．Instead 8．A．beautiful B．creative C．hard-working D．open 9．A．scholarship B．achievement C．movement D．friendship 10．A．refused B．replied C．required D．received Passage 2 （25-26九年级上·江苏南京·期中）In English, when someone is very angry, we say this person “sees red”, like a bull goes wild after seeing a red cloth. Now it turns out that “seeing red” is not just an expression for angry people, 1 a scientific fact. Researchers at North Dakota State University in the US found that there is a 2 between the color red and anger. Angry people really do “see red” where others don’t. And a preference for red over blue may 3 suggest a more hostile (怀有敌意的) personality. The study includes a number of experiments. In the first test, researchers asked a group of people which color they 4 , red or blue. Participants (参加者) then did personality tests. Results showed that those who chose red tended to be more hostile. During a second test, participants looked at faded images that could be regarded as either red or blue. Those who saw red 5 25 percent higher on hostility in the personality test. “Hostile people have hostile thoughts; hostile thoughts are connected with the color red. 6 , hostile people see this color more often,” the researchers told The Independent. 7 , the participants were told about imaginary situations in which they could take different actions. Results showed that in these situations, red-preferring people were 8 likely to show that they would harm another person than those who preferred blue. “An important message from this research is that 9 can send psychological (心理的) meanings,” the researchers said. Where does this connection between the color red and anger come from? Scientists said it might be a matter of evolution (进化). In 10 times, poisonous plants and insects could cause wounds and bleeding: So it may have become instinctive (本能的) for our ancestors (祖先) to link the color red with danger and threats. 1．A．and B．but C．because D．so 2．A．balance B．celebration C．connection D．difference 3．A．ever B．just C．still D．even 4．A．preferred B．practiced C．protected D．provided 5．A．scored B．kept C．found D．put 6．A．However B．For example C．Anyway D．As a result 7．A．Certainly B．Luckily C．Finally D．Importantly 8．A．much B．little C．more D．less 9．A．moods B．colors C．minds D．shapes 10．A．history B．future C．ancient D．modern Passage 3 （25-26九年级上·江苏南京·期中）阅读下面短文，从各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 On my 14th birthday, I gave myself a skateboard. For me, it was a special gift, 1 I got over the terrible accident two years ago. Back then, I accidentally fell down from a 12-meter tree and broke my legs. I went from a wheelchair to crutches (拐杖), then walked a block, and finally walked miles alone. To me, taking exercise became far more 2 . So why not make it enjoyable? I’ve wanted to skate since childhood, 3 I used to spend all my time dancing. To me, skating was like it—both need rhythm (节奏), body control and 4 —so I hoped what I learned would help. For a long time, I tried learning alone and always felt 5 when many strangers saw me skating. That fear of being judged (评判) often stopped me from 6 . Then one day, my friend Monica 7 me to meet members of GRLSWIRL, a skateboarding club. They were happy to help and excited to see me overcome (克服) challenges. Little by little, I became confident and my 8 got better soon. Because of that accident, even a small trip made my heart beat fast—I was afraid of getting hurt again. But since 9 is a big part of skating, the more I learned about it, the better my body and mind understood that it was OK and that I could drop and get up again. Although I started skating for exercise, I never 10 it to help me with this problem and open up a new world for me. So, you see, life is like a roller-coaster, full of ups and downs, allowing us to take on challenges and see how strong we are. 1．A．agreeing B．meaning C．worrying D．imagining 2．A．important B．wonderful C．popular D．useless 3．A．and B．but C．or D．so 4．A．rest B．race C．balance D．progress 5．A．homeless B．bored C．uncomfortable D．tired 6．A．practising B．preparing C．producing D．pronouncing 7．A．warned B．allowed C．taught D．advised 8．A．arms B．teeth C．legs D．feet 9．A．falling B．catching C．pushing D．throwing 10．A．offered B．forced C．advised D．expected Passage 4 （25-26九年级上·江苏南京·期中）阅读下面短文，从短文后所给各题的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 When we look at pretty things like art, our brain’s reward system is turned on to give us a feeling of happiness. And it’s not just art—even staying in a pretty room can make us feel happier. When we feel happy, it 1 how we feel about other experiences, too. For example, studies have found that being in a bright, lively room makes food and drinks taste even 2 to us. So it’s not surprising that one of the big home design trends on TikTok right now is “dopamine décor” (多巴胺装饰)—dopamine, one of our brain’s 3 chemicals (化学成分). It uses happy, cheerful colors and textures to make us feel good about 4 we are! As Designer Joyce Huston said, “After going through COVID-19, people have developed a deeper understanding of how their 5 environments influence their moods.” Using dopamine décor to bring fun into your own home is easy, too. There aren’t real rules you need to follow, 6 here are some important things for you to think about and try. First, it’s not necessary to change your 7 home. Start small by adding fun colors with small pieces of furniture, or by painting things like doors and shelves—either using many bright colors, or just the one you really 8 . Try putting different patterns (图案) on your walls with paint or wallpaper, or even just with picture frames. You could also 9 fun patterns into a room by using blankets, cushions and rugs. What matters most is that when you walk into a room, you 10 !

My name is Adam and I’m a freshman in senior high school. Going from junior high school to senior high school is a really big difficulty. The first week was a little 1 . First, I had to think very carefully about which 2 I wanted to take. I spent hours looking through the course list, marking possible choices with a yellow marker and crossing out (删掉) ones that didn’t 3 my schedule, until my desk was covered in crumpled notes. The school adviser helped me choose the suitable ones: Maths, English, Chemistry, World History, and Chinese. I know that Chinese is a very 4 language, but I hope to be fluent and get an A when I graduate. My adviser recommended I sign up for advanced literature since I like English and I’m good at it. I had to choose extra-curricular activities, too. I tried to join the school football team, but the coach told me that I didn’t play well enough. During the tryout, I 5 an important pass that would have made a goal. The coach said I had courage but needed more practice, which hurt more than I wanted to say. There is no doubt that I was unhappy, but I won’t stop trying. I’ll find a way to 6 on my own so that I can make the team next year. I joined a volunteer club instead. Every Wednesday, we work at a soup kitchen and 7 food to homeless people in the community. Last week, I was serving hot soup 8 the old man began telling me his army stories, and the work suddenly allowed me to meet more people from different backgrounds. I know I’ll have to study harder as a senior high school student and get used to being responsible for a lot more. I’m a bit worried about keeping up with the other students in my advanced course, 9 since some of them already seem to know the material really well, and it’ll be quite difficult to get used to all the homework. Still, I’m 10 to be here. Studying hard isn’t always fun, but I’ll be well prepared for university or whatever else comes in the future. 1．A．peaceful B．boring C．colourful D．challenging 2．A．tasks B．courses C．hobbies D．methods 3．A．fail B．mix C．fit D．mention 4．A．simple B．ancient C．difficult D．practical 5．A．received B．caught C．kicked D．missed 6．A．decide B．finish C．improve D．promise 7．A．hand out B．pick up C．put away D．try out 8．A．which B．when C．after D．that 9．A．finally B．greatly C．hardly D．especially 10．A．calm B．pleased C．stressed D．lonely Passage 6 （25-26九年级上·江苏南京·期中）Are you worried about how to study and make your study more effective (有效的)?

Every day you need to go out for a walk or visit some friends or some nice places. It’s 3 for your study. When you 4 to your studies, your mind will be refreshed and you’ll learn more and study better. Psychologists (心理学家) 5 that learning takes place this way. Here take English learning as an example. First you make a lot of 6 and you will feel happy. Then your language seems to stay the same. So you will think you are learning 7 and you may give up. This can 8 for days or even weeks, yet you can’t give up. Later your language study will again take another big 9 . You will see that you really have been learning all along. If you get enough sleep, food, rest and exercise, studying English can be very effective and 10 . Don’t give up along the way.

In 1938, when Tomie dePaola was just four years old, he already knew what he wanted to do when he grew up. He told everyone his great plans to write stories and draw illustrations (插画) for books.

I will never forget those strangers who helped me when I had difficulties. My husband was in the Navy (海军). He was always 1 and hardly came home. He had already missed the birth of our son and would miss his first Christmas. We were really 2 by this. It was in late November, my husband happened to be on 3 and had to spend nights on the ship. He said he could return home before Black Friday to celebrate Christmas with family members in advance (提前). Back then we had very little money. 4 , I really wanted to decorate the house a little for Christmas and get us a tiny tree. I maybe had $40 for both a tree and decorations. So I went to a certain home improvement 5 and unluckily, they would only start selling their real trees on Black Friday, and my husband would leave by then. I found a saleswoman and 6 my situation. I also asked if they could possibly sell me one 7 . The lady talked to her manager for a minute, then led me outside to the locked tree area. I asked her which one was the cheapest, then she told me that her manager said to let me have any tree I wanted 8 ! Because of their kindness, I was able to give my husband a (an) 9 first Christmas with our son. When he walked in and saw 10 decorated, the look on his face was really priceless.

My friend asked the daily routine question, “How are you doing?” However, rather than give the 1 reply, “Good, how about you?” I decided to erupt (爆发) with my dissatisfaction with traffic, people who can’t 2 their cellphones at traffic lights, poor vision in the rain and everything else about my 3 journey to work. Instead of showing sympathy, my friend asked a 4 question, “What would have happened if your guardian angel hadn’t 5 those traffic problems?” The inference was that I might have been spared 6 much worse than being late for a meeting. My immediate reaction was to laugh and walk on, but later I began to 7 what he had asked. Over the next few days, the more I thought about this question, the more 8 I was able to see in it. I thought about my family experiences as well as the things that had happened to me, and the 9 he had planted started to grow. I remembered my uncle who was late for a flight and the flight he had forgotten crashed down. I remembered when delays kept me from accidents on the same road I was traveling on.

After I 1 from college, I decided to find a job in radio as a sports announcer (广播员). I went to Chicago and knocked at the door of every station. But 2 , I was refused every time. At one station, a kind lady told me 3 big stations wouldn’t hire (雇佣) an inexperienced person and suggested that I try my luck at smaller stations. Following her 4 , I went back to Dixon, where I had grown up. There were no radio-announcing jobs in Dixon, and my father said a newly-opened store wanted a local athlete to work for it. I applied for the job, but I was 5 again. “Everything happens for the best,” Mom reminded me. Dad offered me the car to 6 a job. I tried WOC Radio in Davenport, Iowa. The program director, Peter MacArthur, said they had hired an announcer. As I left his office, my frustration (挫败感) boiled over. “ 7 can I become a sports announcer if I can’t get a job in a radio station?” I asked aloud. While I was waiting for the elevator, I heard someone 8 my name. It was MacArthur. “What was that you said about sports? Do you know anything about football?” Then he asked me to broadcast (广播) an imaginary game. 9 with my performance, he offered me a chance to work there.

His teachers often 1 that he lacked motivation (动力), and his report card, term after term, was covered with the same discouraging comments: “could do better,” “needs to 2 more in class,” and “appears uninterested in schoolwork.” The general 3 that he was lazy and unambitious was about to change when the school announced its annual charity festival. Each class was required to design and run a booth (摊位) to raise money for children living in remote mountain villages. While his classmates argued heatedly about what to sell, how much to charge, and how to decorate their booth, Chen Yao sat quietly in the corner, 4 something on his tablet with a focus no one had ever seen in him. After about ten minutes, he stood up, walked to the front, and turned the screen around. The room fell 5 . It was a detailed design of a booth shaped like a giant open book, complete with a glowing digital donation board that could track contributions in real time, a small stage for student performances, and even a suggestion box powered by a simple online form. “Where did you learn to do this? This is truly remarkable,” his teacher asked, genuinely 6 . “I've been teaching myself coding and graphic design (平面设计) online for nearly two years,” Chen Yao replied 7 , scratching the back of his head and waving a hand as if it were no big deal. “It's really nothing special. I just never thought anyone would be interested in what I was doing.” The booth turned out to be an enormous (巨大的) 8 . On the day of the festival, long queues (队伍) snaked across the playground in front of the book-shaped booth, and the digital board lit up repeatedly with donations from students, parents, and visiting teachers. By the end of the afternoon, their class had raised more money than any other class in the school. The experience taught everyone a valuable 9 about the danger of judging people by their surface behaviour. Chen Yao was not lazy or 10 at all; he simply thought and worked in a different way, one that the traditional classroom, with its emphasis on following rules and visible effort, had not yet learned to recognize or value. 1．A．thought B．agreed C．proved D．pretended 2．A．appear B．compete C．work D．succeed 3．A．excuse B．lesson C．pattern D．impression 4．A．describing B．designing C．directing D．discovering 5．A．silent B．asleep C．apart D．behind 6．A．confused B．bored C．shocked D．impressed 7．A．proudly B．excitedly C．modestly D．nervously 8．A．challenge B．success C．difference D．celebration 9．A．lesson B．subject C．skill D．method 10．A．dishonest B．uninterested C．impatient D．disorganized Passage 13 （26-27九年级上·江苏南京·阶段检测）“Your mom’s not here yet, Bella”, the school bus driver said. “Do you want to wait for her?” Bella 1 herself to slow down and speak clearly, as her speech teacher had taught her. “I know the way, and I can walk by myself now,” Bella said.

I’m sure they’re fine.” “But they’re my friends!” Bella didn’t 5 . “Please?” “All right,” Mom said. They went to the Rodans’ house and rang the bell. “Bella, what a 6 !” Mrs Rodan shouted happily. There was a bandage (绷带) wrapped around her ankle. “Did you hurt your foot?” Bella asked. Before Mrs Rodan could answer, Mom spoke. “Bella was 7 when she didn’t see you outside, so we came to check on you.” “How 8 ,” Mrs Rodan said. “We’ve had a terrible week. I fell off a ladder and then Finn caught a cold. I don’t have any family in town, so I have been on my own.” “Bella and I could help you do some shopping, or take care of Finn,” Mom 9 .

He was curious about everything in his grandma’s house. One night, he stole into the store room where his grandma kept her valuable collections. He knew she did not like anyone to touch her treasures, 1 her cup for skating. Luke walked around on tiptoe and felt the treasures one after another with excitement. He found the cup wasn’t there. “Where is it?” he thought to himself. He raised his head and found it! 2 it was high up on the top of a shelf, he wanted to feel the cup. With the help of a ladder, Luke reached the cup. It was much heavier than it seemed. Luke 3 the cup and tried to get it down. While climbing down, Luke’s elbow struck against the ladder. He lost his 4 and fell down to the ground heavily. The 5 cup slipped out of his hands and broke into two halves. Luke was too nervous to feel the 6 . He stood up quickly and felt heartbroken. He picked up the broken pieces with his shaking hands, put them back to the shelf and left the store room quickly. That night was so long. He woke up and looked at the clock many times. Time seemed to go much slower. Early in the morning, Luke knocked on grandma’s door with 7 . Grandma hugged Luke thoughtfully and said, “That cup was presented to me when I was only ten years old. I won the first prize in my 8 competition.” Luke followed grandma to the store room. “I’m really sorry, grandma.” Luke said sadly. With a smile, grandma took down the broken glass cup and used glue to stick the broken pieces together. The cup was repaired miraculously! She continued, “When I was young, I once messed my uncle’s priceless painting. I was not as 9 as you. I didn’t tell the truth at first. It made me feel upset day and night.

Walking by Mr. Smith’s yard was the best part of our morning walk. And also the 1 . The sweet smell of the beautiful roses in Mr. Smith’s yard was absolutely the best. The worst, came from Mr. Smith, an ice-cold man. “Hello, Mr. Smith.” I greeted him as usual, and he didn’t 2 , as usual. But I knew he was there, at the door. I could hear him take a few steps back. Without eyesight, my 3 were like my “eyes” and even better than them sometimes. I heard him 4 the door quickly and everything went silent. I wondered 5 Mr. Smith always ignored (忽视) me. “Why 6 two people who both like roses be friends?” The question circled in my mind for long. Maybe because I’m blind? Disabled people sometimes do make people 7 . They are different from common people and some even look strange. But I heard him playing chess with Jimmy who’s in a wheelchair. Maybe local people dislike foreigners? But he and my brother Joe get on well. Maybe because I’m a girl? But when my friend Helen greets him, he says hello to her warmly. So Mr. Smith likes Jimmy, Joe and Helen, but not me and Coco! Wait! I 8 seemed to understand the reason. I just needed to prove it. I tied Coco to a tree, felt my way and moved slowly. Without Coco leading the way, I was not sure about each step. I heard his gate open. “Jenny! Be 9 !” Mr. Smith shouted worriedly and the next second, he took me by the arm. “Mr. Smith, I didn’t think you liked me. Now I guess I’ve found out the secret—you are afraid of Coco?” I asked him in a low voice. “Yeah, Jenny.

When she got her admission letter from Wuhan University, she could 1 believe it. Tian is from a remote mountain village in Hubei Province. In recent years, few students there have entered top universities in China. What makes her story more 2 is that she was born with osteogenesis imperfecta (成骨不全症). Even a light bump could bring her 3 and she needs months to recover (恢复). Most of her childhood was spent indoors. 4 Tian couldn’t go to primary school, she turned to books for joy. “Words can take me to places my body can’t reach,” she said. “Even if I stay still, my 5 can fly freely.” Yuan Hui, a volunteer teacher who taught her at home, said Tian was very 6 in learning. She never used “secret study skills”. 7 , she got good grades by watching life carefully—she noticed the smell of soil after rain and the shape of flowers by the road. In junior high school, Tian finally went back to the classroom. She slowly became more 8 and made friends. Her 9 also came from teachers’ support. For six years when she couldn’t go to school, her teacher, Mr. Yuan, walked miles on mountain roads to teach her, no matter if it rained or snowed. He even 10 better-paid jobs, saying, “If I don’t help her, no one will.” Now, she gets ready for college and hopes to join student clubs, learn to live on her own and, most importantly, gain knowledge to help others later. 1．A．nearly B．hardly C．certainly D．rarely 2．A．special B．interesting C．common D．boring 3．A．sadness B．happiness C．pain D．joy 4．A．Since B．While C．If D．Until 5．A．books B．action C．study D．thoughts 6．A．confident B．generous C．active D．modest 7．A．Therefore B．Moreover C．Otherwise D．Instead 8．A．beautiful B．creative C．hard-working D．open 9．A．scholarship B．achievement C．movement D．friendship 10．A．refused B．replied C．required D．received 【答案】 1．B 2．A 3．C 4．A 5．D 6．C 7．D 8．D 9．B 10．A 【导语】本文讲述了患有成骨不全症的湖北女孩田艳青，在老师帮助下刻苦学习，最终考入武汉大学的励志故事。 1．句意：当她收到武汉大学的录取通知书时，她几乎不敢相信。 前文提到她所在的偏远山村很少有学生考上顶尖大学，拿到武大录取通知书时她几乎不敢相信。hardly意为“几乎不”，符合语境；。nearly“几乎”、certainly“当然”、rarely“很少；不常”不符合惊喜语境。 2．句意：让她的故事更特别的是她天生患有成骨不全症。 她本身是少见的考上顶尖大学的山村学生，还天生患有成骨不全症，这让她的故事格外“特别”，应用special。interesting“有趣的”、common“常见的”、boring“无聊的”无法体现故事的特殊性。 3．句意：即使轻微的碰撞也会给她带来疼痛，她需要数月恢复。 成骨不全症的特点是骨头极脆弱，轻微碰撞就会带来“疼痛”，需要数月恢复，应用pain。sadness“悲伤”、happiness“快乐”、joy“喜悦”不符合生理反应。 4．句意：由于田艳青不能去上小学，她转向书籍寻找乐趣。 根据前后文逻辑，不能上学是读书的原因，可知表因果关系，应用Since“由于”。其他选项逻辑不通。 5．句意：即使我静止不动，我的思想也能自由飞翔。 前文她说文字能带自己去身体到不了的地方，哪怕身体不动，她的“思想”也能自由飞翔，应用thoughts。其他选项不符合对比逻辑。 6．句意：在家教她的志愿者老师袁辉说，田在学习上非常积极。 根据后文她仔细观察生活学习可知她学习主动“积极”，应用active。confident“自信的”、generous“慷慨的”、modest“谦虚的” 未体现学习状态。 7．句意：相反，她通过仔细观察生活取得好成绩——她注意到了雨后泥土的气味和路边花的形状。 根据前后句意转折，否定前者肯定后者，可知用Instead“相反”。Therefore“因此”、Moreover“此外”、Otherwise“否则”逻辑不符。 8．句意：她慢慢变得更加开朗并交了朋友。 前文提到她童年大部分时间都在室内度过，初中终于回到教室后慢慢变得更“开朗、外放”，交到了朋友，应用open。其他选项与交友无直接关联。 9．句意：她的成就也来自老师的支持。 根据上文考入大学可知这是她的“成就”，应用achievement。scholarship“奖学金”、movement“运动” 、friendship“友谊”范围过窄或不符逻辑。 10．句意：他甚至拒绝了更高薪的工作，说：“如果我不帮她，没人会。” 根据为了帮田艳青而留在山区可知他“拒绝”了高薪工作，应用refused。replied“回复”、required“要求”、received“收到”不符合牺牲精神。 Passage 2 （25-26九年级上·江苏南京·期中）In English, when someone is very angry, we say this person “sees red”, like a bull goes wild after seeing a red cloth. Now it turns out that “seeing red” is not just an expression for angry people, 1 a scientific fact. Researchers at North Dakota State University in the US found that there is a 2 between the color red and anger. Angry people really do “see red” where others don’t. And a preference for red over blue may 3 suggest a more hostile (怀有敌意的) personality. The study includes a number of experiments. In the first test, researchers asked a group of people which color they 4 , red or blue. Participants (参加者) then did personality tests. Results showed that those who chose red tended to be more hostile. During a second test, participants looked at faded images that could be regarded as either red or blue. Those who saw red 5 25 percent higher on hostility in the personality test. “Hostile people have hostile thoughts; hostile thoughts are connected with the color red. 6 , hostile people see this color more often,” the researchers told The Independent. 7 , the participants were told about imaginary situations in which they could take different actions. Results showed that in these situations, red-preferring people were 8 likely to show that they would harm another person than those who preferred blue. “An important message from this research is that 9 can send psychological (心理的) meanings,” the researchers said. Where does this connection between the color red and anger come from? Scientists said it might be a matter of evolution (进化). In 10 times, poisonous plants and insects could cause wounds and bleeding: So it may have become instinctive (本能的) for our ancestors (祖先) to link the color red with danger and threats. 1．A．and B．but C．because D．so 2．A．balance B．celebration C．connection D．difference 3．A．ever B．just C．still D．even 4．A．preferred B．practiced C．protected D．provided 5．A．scored B．kept C．found D．put 6．A．However B．For example C．Anyway D．As a result 7．A．Certainly B．Luckily C．Finally D．Importantly 8．A．much B．little C．more D．less 9．A．moods B．colors C．minds D．shapes 10．A．history B．future C．ancient D．modern 【答案】 1．B 2．C 3．D 4．A 5．A 6．D 7．C 8．C 9．B 10．C 【导语】本文主要讲述了英语中“seeing red”这一表达不仅是形容愤怒的习语，更被科学证实与愤怒情绪存在关联，研究发现偏爱红色的人可能更具敌意，且这一联系可能源于人类进化史。 1．句意：现在事实证明，“看到红色”不仅是形容愤怒的人的一个表达，而且是科学事实。 上文“not just an expression”与下文“a scientific fact”构成递进关系，not just...but...为固定搭配，意为“不仅是……而且是……”。and表并列、because表原因、so表结果，均不符。 2．句意：美国北达科他州立大学的研究人员发现，红色与愤怒之间存在联系。 下文“between the color red and anger”表明研究的是颜色与情绪间的关联，connection“联系”符合语境。balance“平衡”、celebration“庆祝”、difference“差异”均不符。 3．句意：并且，相较于蓝色更喜欢红色甚至可能暗示更具敌意的性格。 上文提到偏爱红色与敌意有关，此处进一步强调这种偏好甚至能暗示性格，even“甚至”表递进符合语境。ever“曾经”、just“仅仅”、still“仍然”语义不当。 4．句意：在第一次测试中，研究人员询问一组人他们更喜欢哪种颜色，红色还是蓝色。 下文“Results showed that those who chose red”表明参与者需做出颜色选择，preferred“更喜欢”符合语境。practiced“练习”、protected“保护”、provided“提供”均不符。 5．句意：那些看到红色的人在人格测试中的敌意得分高出25%。 下文“higher on hostility”表明敌意评分更高，scored“得分”符合语境。kept“保持”、found“发现”、put“放置”语义不通。 6．句意：因此，怀有敌意的人会更频繁地看到这种颜色。 上文“怀有敌意的人有敌意想法，敌意想法与红色相关联”与下文“他们更频繁看到红色”构成因果关系，As a result“因此”符合语境。However“然而”表转折、For example“例如”表举例、Anyway“无论如何”表让步。 7．句意：最后，参与者被告知了假想情境，在这些情境中他们可能采取不同行动。 上文描述前两个实验，此处进入第三个实验环节，Finally“最后”表顺序符合语境。Certainly“当然”、Luckily“幸运地”、Importantly“重要的是”均不符。 8．句意：结果显示，在这些情境中，偏爱红色的人比偏爱蓝色的人更可能表现出会伤害他人。 下文“than those who preferred blue”表明比较关系，结合研究结论“偏爱红色者更具敌意”，more likely“更可能”符合语境。much/little不能用于比较级前修饰likely，less“更少”与结论矛盾。 9．句意：这项研究的一个重要信息是，颜色可以传递心理含义。 上文全篇围绕颜色（尤其是红色）与情绪心理的关系展开，colors“颜色”是核心主题。moods“情绪”、minds“思想”、shapes“形状”均偏离主旨。 10．句意：在远古时代，有毒的植物和昆虫可能导致伤口和流血。 下文“our ancestors”表明涉及远古祖先，ancient times“远古时代”符合语境。history“历史”（名词）、future“未来”、modern“现代的”均不符。 Passage 3 （25-26九年级上·江苏南京·期中）阅读下面短文，从各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 On my 14th birthday, I gave myself a skateboard. For me, it was a special gift, 1 I got over the terrible accident two years ago. Back then, I accidentally fell down from a 12-meter tree and broke my legs. I went from a wheelchair to crutches (拐杖), then walked a block, and finally walked miles alone. To me, taking exercise became far more 2 . So why not make it enjoyable? I’ve wanted to skate since childhood, 3 I used to spend all my time dancing. To me, skating was like it—both need rhythm (节奏), body control and 4 —so I hoped what I learned would help. For a long time, I tried learning alone and always felt 5 when many strangers saw me skating. That fear of being judged (评判) often stopped me from 6 . Then one day, my friend Monica 7 me to meet members of GRLSWIRL, a skateboarding club. They were happy to help and excited to see me overcome (克服) challenges. Little by little, I became confident and my 8 got better soon. Because of that accident, even a small trip made my heart beat fast—I was afraid of getting hurt again. But since 9 is a big part of skating, the more I learned about it, the better my body and mind understood that it was OK and that I could drop and get up again. Although I started skating for exercise, I never 10 it to help me with this problem and open up a new world for me. So, you see, life is like a roller-coaster, full of ups and downs, allowing us to take on challenges and see how strong we are. 1．A．agreeing B．meaning C．worrying D．imagining 2．A．important B．wonderful C．popular D．useless 3．A．and B．but C．or D．so 4．A．rest B．race C．balance D．progress 5．A．homeless B．bored C．uncomfortable D．tired 6．A．practising B．preparing C．producing D．pronouncing 7．A．warned B．allowed C．taught D．advised 8．A．arms B．teeth C．legs D．feet 9．A．falling B．catching C．pushing D．throwing 10．A．offered B．forced C．advised D．expected 【答案】 1．B 2．A 3．B 4．C 5．C 6．A 7．D 8．C 9．A 10．D 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了作者在经历严重事故后，通过学习滑板克服了内心的恐惧。这不仅锻炼了身体，还让作者变得更加自信，从而明白了生活充满起伏，我们要勇于接受挑战。 1．句意：对我来说，这是一份特别的礼物，意味着我克服了两年前那场可怕的事故。 根据“I got over the terrible accident two years ago”，可知这个礼物代表或意味着作者克服了事故的阴影，meaning“意味着”符合。agreeing“同意”、worrying“担忧”、imagining“想象”，不符合逻辑。 2．句意：对我来说，锻炼变得重要得多。 根据前文“I went from a wheelchair to crutches, then walked a block, and finally walked miles alone.”，可知作者经历了艰难的康复过程，因此锻炼对他来说变得非常重要，important“重要的”符合。wonderful“精彩的”、popular“受欢迎的”、useless“无用的”，不符合逻辑。 3．句意：我从小就想滑板，但我过去把所有的时间都花在了跳舞上。 根据“I’ve wanted to skate since childhood”和“I used to spend all my time dancing”，可知前后句表示转折关系，想滑板但是时间都花在跳舞上了，but“但是”符合。and“和/并且”、or“或者”、so“所以”，不符合前后文逻辑。 4．句意：对我来说，滑板就像跳舞一样——两者都需要节奏、身体控制和平衡。 根据常识和“both need rhythm, body control”，可知滑板和跳舞都需要身体的平衡感，balance“平衡”符合。rest“休息”、race“比赛”、progress“进步”，不符合语境。 5．句意：很长一段时间，我尝试独自学习，当许多陌生人看到我滑板时，我总是感到不自在。 根据后文“That fear of being judged”，可知作者害怕被别人评判，所以被陌生人看着会觉得不自在，uncomfortable“不舒服的/不自在的”符合。homeless“无家可归的”、bored“无聊的”、tired“疲倦的”，不符合语境。 6．句意：那种害怕被评判的恐惧经常阻止我练习。 根据前文“I tried learning alone”，可知作者在练习滑板，因为害怕被评判而停止了练习，practising“练习”符合。preparing“准备”、producing“生产”、pronouncing“发音”，不符合前后文逻辑。 7．句意：后来有一天，我的朋友莫妮卡建议我去见见滑板俱乐部GRLSWIRL的成员。 朋友应该是建议作者去接触俱乐部成员以克服恐惧，advise sb. to do sth.意为“建议某人做某事”，advised“建议”符合。warned“警告”、allowed“允许”、taught“教”，不符合语境。 8．句意：渐渐地，我变得自信了，我的腿也很快好起来了。 根据前文“broke my legs”，可知作者之前摔断了腿，通过滑板锻炼，腿部恢复得更好了，legs“腿”符合。arms“胳膊”、teeth“牙齿”、feet“脚”，不符合前文逻辑。 9．句意：但由于摔倒在滑板运动中占很大一部分，我对它了解得越多，我的身心就越明白这没关系，我可以摔倒然后再站起来。 根据后文“I could drop and get up again”，可知滑板中经常会摔倒，falling“摔倒”符合。catching“抓住”、pushing“推”、throwing“扔”，不符合语境。 10．句意：虽然我开始滑板是为了锻炼，但我从未预料到它能帮我解决这个问题，并为我打开一个新世界。 根据语境，作者一开始只是为了锻炼，未曾预料到会有这么大的收获，expected“预料/期望”符合。offered“提供”、forced“强迫”、advised“建议”，不符合语境。 Passage 4 （25-26九年级上·江苏南京·期中）阅读下面短文，从短文后所给各题的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 When we look at pretty things like art, our brain’s reward system is turned on to give us a feeling of happiness. And it’s not just art—even staying in a pretty room can make us feel happier. When we feel happy, it 1 how we feel about other experiences, too. For example, studies have found that being in a bright, lively room makes food and drinks taste even 2 to us. So it’s not surprising that one of the big home design trends on TikTok right now is “dopamine décor” (多巴胺装饰)—dopamine, one of our brain’s 3 chemicals (化学成分). It uses happy, cheerful colors and textures to make us feel good about 4 we are! As Designer Joyce Huston said, “After going through COVID-19, people have developed a deeper understanding of how their 5 environments influence their moods.” Using dopamine décor to bring fun into your own home is easy, too. There aren’t real rules you need to follow, 6 here are some important things for you to think about and try. First, it’s not necessary to change your 7 home. Start small by adding fun colors with small pieces of furniture, or by painting things like doors and shelves—either using many bright colors, or just the one you really 8 .

My name is Adam and I’m a freshman in senior high school. Going from junior high school to senior high school is a really big difficulty. The first week was a little 1 . First, I had to think very carefully about which 2 I wanted to take. I spent hours looking through the course list, marking possible choices with a yellow marker and crossing out (删掉) ones that didn’t 3 my schedule, until my desk was covered in crumpled notes. The school adviser helped me choose the suitable ones: Maths, English, Chemistry, World History, and Chinese. I know that Chinese is a very 4 language, but I hope to be fluent and get an A when I graduate. My adviser recommended I sign up for advanced literature since I like English and I’m good at it. I had to choose extra-curricular activities, too. I tried to join the school football team, but the coach told me that I didn’t play well enough. During the tryout, I 5 an important pass that would have made a goal. The coach said I had courage but needed more practice, which hurt more than I wanted to say. There is no doubt that I was unhappy, but I won’t stop trying. I’ll find a way to 6 on my own so that I can make the team next year. I joined a volunteer club instead. Every Wednesday, we work at a soup kitchen and 7 food to homeless people in the community. Last week, I was serving hot soup 8 the old man began telling me his army stories, and the work suddenly allowed me to meet more people from different backgrounds. I know I’ll have to study harder as a senior high school student and get used to being responsible for a lot more.

His teachers often 1 that he lacked motivation (动力), and his report card, term after term, was covered with the same discouraging comments: “could do better,” “needs to 2 more in class,” and “appears uninterested in schoolwork.” The general 3 that he was lazy and unambitious was about to change when the school announced its annual charity festival. Each class was required to design and run a booth (摊位) to raise money for children living in remote mountain villages. While his classmates argued heatedly about what to sell, how much to charge, and how to decorate their booth, Chen Yao sat quietly in the corner, 4 something on his tablet with a focus no one had ever seen in him. After about ten minutes, he stood up, walked to the front, and turned the screen around. The room fell 5 . It was a detailed design of a booth shaped like a giant open book, complete with a glowing digital donation board that could track contributions in real time, a small stage for student performances, and even a suggestion box powered by a simple online form. “Where did you learn to do this? This is truly remarkable,” his teacher asked, genuinely 6 . “I've been teaching myself coding and graphic design (平面设计) online for nearly two years,” Chen Yao replied 7 , scratching the back of his head and waving a hand as if it were no big deal. “It's really nothing special. I just never thought anyone would be interested in what I was doing.” The booth turned out to be an enormous (巨大的) 8 . On the day of the festival, long queues (队伍) snaked across the playground in front of the book-shaped booth, and the digital board lit up repeatedly with donations from students, parents, and visiting teachers. By the end of the afternoon, their class had raised more money than any other class in the school. The experience taught everyone a valuable 9 about the danger of judging people by their surface behaviour. Chen Yao was not lazy or 10 at all; he simply thought and worked in a different way, one that the traditional classroom, with its emphasis on following rules and visible effort, had not yet learned to recognize or value. 1．A．thought B．agreed C．proved D．pretended 2．A．appear B．compete C．work D．succeed 3．A．excuse B．lesson C．pattern D．impression 4．A．describing B．designing C．directing D．discovering 5．A．silent B．asleep C．apart D．behind 6．A．confused B．bored C．shocked D．impressed 7．A．proudly B．excitedly C．modestly D．nervously 8．A．challenge B．success C．difference D．celebration 9．A．lesson B．subject C．skill D．method 10．A．dishonest B．uninterested C．impatient D．disorganized 【答案】 1．A 2．C 3．D 4．B 5．A 6．D 7．C 8．B 9．A 10．B 【导语】本文讲述了看似懒惰的学生陈耀在慈善活动中展现设计才华，扭转了师生对他的印象，告诉大家不要以貌取人。 1．句意：他的老师经常认为他缺乏动力。 根据“his report card…was covered with the same discouraging comments: ‘could do better,’ ‘needs to…more in class,’ and ‘appears uninterested in schoolwork.’ ”可知，是老师观察到的行为，是老师的主观看法。thought（认为）符合语境。 2．句意：需要在课堂上更用功。 根据“he was lazy and unambitious”可知，此处指需要在课堂上更用功（work more）。lazy对应need to work。 3．句意：人们普遍认为他懒惰且胸无大志，而就在学校宣布一年一度的慈善节时，这种看法即将发生改变。 根据上下文大家对他的看法“His teachers often…that he lacked motivation (动力), and his report card, term after term, was covered with the same discouraging comments: ‘could do better,’ ‘needs to…more in class,’ and ‘appears uninterested in schoolwork.’”可知，此处指印象（impression）。 4．句意：当同学们激烈争论要卖什么、定价多少以及如何布置摊位时，陈耀安静地坐在角落里，在平板电脑上设计着什么，那份专注是众人从未在他身上见到过的。 根据“turned the screen around…It was a detailed design of a booth”可知，是设计（designing）。 5．句意：房间陷入了一片寂静。 根据“Where did you learn to do this?

He found the cup wasn’t there. “Where is it?” he thought to himself. He raised his head and found it! 2 it was high up on the top of a shelf, he wanted to feel the cup. With the help of a ladder, Luke reached the cup. It was much heavier than it seemed. Luke 3 the cup and tried to get it down. While climbing down, Luke’s elbow struck against the ladder. He lost his 4 and fell down to the ground heavily. The 5 cup slipped out of his hands and broke into two halves. Luke was too nervous to feel the 6 . He stood up quickly and felt heartbroken. He picked up the broken pieces with his shaking hands, put them back to the shelf and left the store room quickly. That night was so long. He woke up and looked at the clock many times. Time seemed to go much slower. Early in the morning, Luke knocked on grandma’s door with 7 . Grandma hugged Luke thoughtfully and said, “That cup was presented to me when I was only ten years old.

Walking by Mr. Smith’s yard was the best part of our morning walk. And also the 1 . The sweet smell of the beautiful roses in Mr. Smith’s yard was absolutely the best. The worst, came from Mr. Smith, an ice-cold man. “Hello, Mr. Smith.” I greeted him as usual, and he didn’t 2 , as usual. But I knew he was there, at the door. I could hear him take a few steps back. Without eyesight, my 3 were like my “eyes” and even better than them sometimes. I heard him 4 the door quickly and everything went silent. I wondered 5 Mr. Smith always ignored (忽视) me. “Why 6 two people who both like roses be friends?” The question circled in my mind for long. Maybe because I’m blind? Disabled people sometimes do make people 7 . They are different from common people and some even look strange. But I heard him playing chess with Jimmy who’s in a wheelchair. Maybe local people dislike foreigners? But he and my brother Joe get on well. Maybe because I’m a girl? But when my friend Helen greets him, he says hello to her warmly. So Mr. Smith likes Jimmy, Joe and Helen, but not me and Coco! Wait! I 8 seemed to understand the reason. I just needed to prove it. I tied Coco to a tree, felt my way and moved slowly. Without Coco leading the way, I was not sure about each step. I heard his gate open. “Jenny! Be 9 !” Mr. Smith shouted worriedly and the next second, he took me by the arm. “Mr. Smith, I didn’t think you liked me. Now I guess I’ve found out the secret—you are afraid of Coco?” I asked him in a low voice. “Yeah, Jenny. You know, … your Coco is such a … big dog.” Mr. Smith laughed, feeling embarrassed (尴尬的) like a child being caught. “Your fear of Coco may be big, but our 10 is BIGGER! I’ll help you.

The worst, came from Mr. Smith”，可知这件事同时有好和坏两面，应选用B“worst”表示“最糟糕的”，和前文“best”形成对照。 2．句意：我像往常一样和他打招呼，而他像往常一样没有回复。 根据上文Mr. Smith是一个冷漠的人及“greeted him... didn’t...”可知，我向他问好，他没有作出回应，应选用C“reply”表示 “回复、回应”。move移动、notice注意、escape逃跑，不符合打招呼的语境。 3．句意：失去视力，我的耳朵就如同我的眼睛，有时甚至比眼睛还要好用。 根据“Without eyesight”和后文“I heard him take a few steps back”可知，作者依靠听觉感知周围，应选用B“ears”表示“耳朵”。作者已经看不见，eyes眼睛、hands手、feet脚，和听到脚步声的线索不匹配。 4．句意：我听见他迅速关上门，然后一切归于寂静。 根据后文“everything went silent”，关门之后才会一片安静，应选用A“shut”表示“关上”。“open打开”和“silent”矛盾；“repair修理”、“answer应答”语义和句子无关。 5．句意：我想知道为什么史密斯先生总是无视我。 根据后文大量猜想“Maybe because…”，作者在思考对方无视自己的原因，应选用B“why”表示 “为什么”。 6．句意：为什么两个都喜欢玫瑰的人不能成为朋友？ 这是作者内心的疑问，表达“不能够”成为朋友，应选用A“can’t”表示“不能”。mustn’t禁止；needn’t不必；won’t将不会，语气不符合此处疑问。 7．句意：残疾人有时确实会让人们感到害怕。 作者在猜测被无视的原因，根据“different... strange”可知，与众不同可能让人产生“害怕”心理，怀疑残疾的身份让别人心生畏惧，应选用D“afraid”表示“害怕的”。excited兴奋的、lucky幸运的、angry生气的，和作者猜测的心理不符。 8．句意：等等！我似乎突然明白了缘由。 根据“Wait”及灵光一闪的语境可知，表示忽然想通，应选用B“suddenly”表示“突然”。certainly当然；recently最近；naturally自然地，体现不出顿悟的感觉。 9．句意：“珍妮！小心！” 史密斯先生担忧地大喊，下一秒他就一把抓住我的胳膊。 根据前文我没有导盲犬带路，每一步都没有把握，他担心我出事，应选用D“careful”构成“be careful小心”。honest诚实的、polite礼貌的、confident自信的，和担心女孩摔倒的语境无关。 10．句意：你对Coco的恐惧或许很强烈，但我们的友谊更加重要！ 根据全文主旨及前文“be friends”可知，此处指向两人建立友好关系，应选用C“friendship”表示“友谊”。dream梦想、happiness幸福、surprise惊喜，不符合文章主旨。 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 $
