B Over the past ten years, China has achieved excellent development, and its high-speed railway system clearly proves it. On December 29, 2025, four new high-speed railway lines—Xi’an-Yan’an, Shanghai-Chongqing-Chengdu, Wuhan-Yichang and Hangzhou-Guizhou—started services. With these new lines, China’s total high-speed rail network (网络) is over 50,000 kilometres, which is more than the total length of all high-speed railway lines in the rest of the world. Today, the high-speed railway network covers 97% of Chinese cities with a population of over 500,000, completely changing people’s travel experience. Travelling between cities within 500 kilometres takes only one to two hours, and a 1,000-kilometre journey takes about four hours. An average of 16 million passengers take the high-speed railway every day. This is a far cry from the past, when buying train tickets during busy seasons was a headache and the average train speed was only 60 kilometres per hour. The high-speed railway now connects big cities with medium and small ones, driving tourism and local industries. For example, after the Hangzhou-Changsha high-speed railway opened in 2014, Jiangxi Province, located between the two cities, saw a huge growth of 248 million tourists in ten years. Besides, China has shared its technology and experience with over 40 countries. From importing (引进) technology to becoming a worldwide leader, China’s high-speed railway is a proud symbol of the country’s progress, and faster maglev (磁悬浮) trains are being studied for even better development in the future. 6. When did China’s high-speed railway network reach over 50,000 kilometres? A. In 2025. B. In 2024. C. In 2014. 7. Which city is most probably covered by China’s high-speed railway? A. A city with 100,000 people. B. A city with 600,000 people. C. A city with 400,000 people. 8. What do the underlined words “a far cry from” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Pretty similar to. B. Very different from. C. The same as. 9. Which of the following is TRUE? A. A 1,000-kilometre high-speed rail trip takes about 2 hours. B. China shares high-speed rail technology with less than 40 countries. C. 97% of Chinese cities with over 500,000 people are covered by high-speed rail. 10. What is the best title for the passage? A. The History of China’s High-speed Railway Technology B. China’s High-speed Railway’s Achievements and Influences C. Why China’s High-speed Railway Is So Strong C Nowadays, many people are sharing photos of their books on social media. They use colourful pens to write notes and draw in the margins (页边空白). This practice, called “marginalia”, is now a hot topic. Is it a bad habit, or is it actually helpful? Marginalia is not new. Famous thinkers like Leonardo da Vinci filled their notebooks with ideas in the margins. Well-known writers also did this, leaving behind notes that tell us more about their thoughts. Even today, some writers annotate their own books, sharing their understanding with readers. But does it help our brains? Science says yes. Studies show the act of writing by hand helps us remember and understand what we read better than just typing. Experts explain that writing in the margins can help us think more deeply about the text and form our own opinions. Of course, the colourful, special handwriting, which is popular online, looks different from the notes students make at school. But the goal is the same: ▲ . For example, colouring favourite lines might help a reader understand why they love them so much. The most important thing is that it helps the reader. In the end, if using colourful pens makes reading easier for you, then you should. Making notes in margins is a personal way to understand books. It is also a useful tool that can greatly improve your understanding and memory of what you read. So, if you haven’t tried annotation yet, give it a try! You may find a better and more enjoyable way to learn. 11. How does the writer start the passage? A. By making a comparison. B. By asking a question. C. By using a saying. 12. What does the underlined word “annotate” mean in Paragraph 2? A. Write notes in. B. Make marks in. C. Write the whole text against. 13. According to experts, how can writing in the margins help us? A. By allowing us to use special pens. B. By making our books more colourful. C. By helping us think deeply and have opinions. 14. Which of the following can be put in “ ▲ ”? A. to take beautiful photos of the book B. to remember all the words in the book C. to understand the book better 15. Which is the best title for the passage? A. The History of Marginalia B. The Power of Colourful Notes C. A Helpful Way to Read Better. D A mindset is the way of thinking. Your mindset can affect almost every part of your daily life. Dr. Carol Dweck, a scientist who studies how the mind works, has discovered that people with a fixed mindset deal with problems in a different way from those with a growth mindset. Imagine that two students, Anna and Amy, are taking a really hard math test in September. Anna has a fixed mindset, which means she believes that a person’s intelligence is fixed. You’re either smart or stupid, and if you’re smart, everything is easy for you. Amy has a growth mindset, which means she believes that intelligence can grow. Not everyone can become a genius, but they can improve the skills they have and develop new ones. So, which is right? It’s Amy, since, believe it or not, research shows that you really can get smarter by working hard, practising, and challenging yourself. As you know, your brain is made up of billions of neurons (神经元). They are all connected and send messages to each other. Scientists have found that when we learn, neurons make new connections and old connections grow stronger. But if connections aren’t used, they will break down. So, learning is like exercise for your brain. The more you work it out, the stronger and smarter your network of neurons will become. According to Dr. Carol Dweck’s studies, people with a fixed mindset worry about grades. They’re afraid of looking stupid when they make mistakes. People with a growth mindset care about learning not grades. They learn from their mistakes and try to find different ways of solving problems. They ask for help when necessary. In only two years, babies learn to walk, talk and feed themselves. They never worry about looking stupid when learning. If they make mistakes, they just try again. Dweck’s team also discovered that, with some work, kids can choose to have a growth mindset. They can do better in school. The trick is to notice what mindset you have. If you ever think you are stupid, it’s not true. You just have not learned how to do something yet. 16. Which of the following is true about neurons? A. Learning is not always helpful to them. B. All of them are connected to each other. C. The connections among them will never break down. 17. What might a man with a growth mindset agree about? A. If people are smart enough, they can do everything easily. B. People will look foolish when they make mistakes studying. C. Everyone can get smarter by working hard and practising more. 18. The writer mentions babies learning to walk and talk in Paragraph 5 mainly to ______. A. explain people can gain progress through making mistakes B. prove babies make more mistakes than grown-ups C. show babies seldom feel worried in daily life 19. How did the writer develop his main idea? A. By listing numbers. B. By comparing the differences. C. By showing reasons and results. 20. What can we learn from the last paragraph? A. Kids are born with a natural growth mindset. B. It is possible for kids to develop a growth mindset. C. Grades are more important than the process of learning. 三、完形填空 (每题1分，共10分) “The best way to know the unknown is to go there, experience it and feel it with your heart,” Du Mengran told Nature. As a deep-sea scientist, she plays a big role in the ____21____ of the world’s deepest-known animal ecosystem. And she was named on Nature’s 2025 list of 10 science-shaping people.

But when someone else is speaking, are we showing them the same politeness? Listening well doesn’t come naturally to most people. ____31____. This also means we often don’t really focus (集中) on what people are saying. One way to listen with more care and attention is to practice active listening. ____32____. Active listening is not only hearing someone’s words but also taking notes of their nonverbal (非口头的) communication. Nonverbal communication can include body language, the tone (语气) and their talking speed. By practicing active listening, we can hold onto important information better and show care to others. This useful skill makes others want to discuss things with us. To get better at active listening, give the speaker your complete attention. ____33____, it is easier said than done. Stopping thinking about your phone and clearing your mind of your own thoughts are the first steps. ____34____, it’s easier to give your complete attention to the speaker. Another way to practice active listening is to notice body language. Research shows that 55% of face-to-face communication is nonverbal, 38% vocal (噪音的) and 7% words. ____35____. With that in mind, you can give proper replies like nodding, smiling or looking at them politely. Now do you know how to listen actively? A. By forgetting those things that could influence you B. Although this may seem clear and easy to notice and understand C. This means we don’t pay attention to what someone is expressing D. When someone is speaking, their body language is giving information, too E. Because most of us live in a busy world, we care about certain things and miss the rest F. Active listening is focusing on what someone is communicating and giving your understanding 五、语法填空 (共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分) The well-known lesson between Helen Keller and Anne Sullivan came at a spring (泉眼).

At that moment, the communication wall ____38____ (break). Sullivan’s hand gestures were sign language, a form of hand alphabet (字母表) used by people who are deaf or lose their voices. But people who have no hearing ____39____ (able) have an advantage that Helen did not: They can see the person using sign language. Sullivan used the hand alphabet and the touch to spell letters and words into Helen’s hand. In that way, Helen learned that every object had a name. Like spoken languages, sign languages are different from country to country. Even English-speaking people do not share the same signs. The British Sign Language (BSL) uses two hands for its alphabet, ____40____ the American Sign Language (ASL) alphabet uses one hand.

This understanding allowed Helen to go ____42____ her world and communicate much ____43____ (effect). Helen’s journey was not easy, but with Sullivan’s encouragement, she dealt with many ____44____ (difficult). Helen’s story marks the importance of keeping trying and the power of communication.

But for generations, the poor mountain soil produced little, and families often went hungry during the dry season. Young people left their villages in large numbers, hoping to find work in the cities, because they saw no future in farming. In 2006, a team of Chinese agricultural experts arrived with a strange gift: a grass-like plant called JUNCAO (菌草), which Chinese scientist Lin Zhanxi had spent years developing. The name means “fungus grass”, because the plant can be used to grow mushrooms. It grows quickly even in poor soil, needs little water, and what amazed the local farmers most, one planting can be harvested for years. At first, few villagers believed that a grass could change their lives. So the Chinese experts did not just hand out seedlings (幼苗)—they stayed and worked in the fields side by side with the farmers, teaching them how to plant, water and harvest. They also trained young Rwandans to grow mushrooms, which had never been a part of the local diet, and helped them find markets for this new food. Slowly, changes took place. Mushrooms became popular across the country, and today more than 30,000 Rwandan farmers, over half of them women, make a living from JUNCAO. Some young people who once left their villages have returned and started their own mushroom farms. “In the past, I could not even afford school fees for my children,” says Mukamana, a mother of three. “Now they are all in school, and I have built a new house.” Today, the little green plant grows in more than 100 countries. What travels with those little green seedlings is more than a technology—it is a seed of hope, quietly growing into a better tomorrow! 46. Why did many young Rwandans leave their villages before JUNCAO arrived? ______________________________________________ 47. What can the plant JUNCAO be used for? ______________________________________________ 48. How did the Chinese experts win the villagers’ trust at first? ______________________________________________ 49. What does the writer mean by “a seed of hope” in the last paragraph? ______________________________________________ 50. What do you think of the Chinese experts like Lin Zhanxi? ______________________________________________ 三、书面表达 (满分20分) 51. 假定你是李华，你的笔友Fu Xing发邮件抱怨九年级英语学习变难、时间紧，甚至想放弃。请你用英语给他写一封回信，内容包括： 1. 表示理解：面对变化感到焦虑是正常的； 2. 建议方法：建议利用科技工具 (如APP、播客等) 利用碎片时间高效学习； 3. 自身改变：简述你通过“智慧学习”取得的进步和变化 (如视野开阔、口语提升等)； 4. 表达祝愿。 注意：1. 词数100左右 (开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数)；2. 须涵盖所有要点，可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯；3. 文中不得出现真实的人名、校名等信息。 ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 初三英语单元监测 (一) 一、听力 (每小题1分，共20分) 第一节 听短对话答题，每段对话读两遍 (共5分) 1.
