(D) Have you ever wondered where a memory goes when you learn something new?The answer lies in your brain.Learning isn't magic.51 九年英语第5页共8页 Imagine your brain is a forest.When you learn something for the first time,it's like walking through the grass and creating a new path(小路)，If you only walk that path once,.the grass will spring back(恢复原状). 52 This is what happens when you forget. But if you walk the same path again and again-by practising a math problem,reviewing vocabulary,or playing a song on the piano,the path will be clear,wide,and lasting.It becomes a road. In your brain,these "roads"are real connections between brain cells called neurons ()The more you use a connection,the stronger it gets.53This term comes from two words:"neuro"(related to the brain)and "plasticity"(the ability to change)-which means your brain is"plastic". What makes these connections strong?There are two key factors (involved.One factor is focusing. 54 Your brain lets out a chemical that acts like"glue"()when you pay close attention.It can make the new connection stronger.And while you sleep,your brain is busy replaying the day's learning and using the new roads repeatedly.So a good night's sleep isn't lazy.It's the other factor that makes the connection stronger. 55 Every time you learn something new,your brain actually grows and forms new connections. So learning isn't just about trying hard-it's about knowing how your brain works and using that to make new knowledge stick. 根据短文内容，从下面方框内的选项中选出能填入文中空缺处的最佳选项，使文章意思通顺、内容完 整，其中有一个选项是多余的。(5分) A.The path will disappear.

(F) Do you often forget things,like your address or passwords?Don't worry.You can train your brain.Here are three useful techniques. To start with,sleep well.Sleep is to the brain what fuel is to an engine.Without enough sleep,your memory gets tired and wears out easily.Scientists find that people who sleep well are more iikely to remember new things the next day. Second,use pictures.Your bramn reacts better to images,than to long word lists.When you read a passage, try to draw a gaph or organze the main ideas as a chain of pictures,or make an outline before you start.When you retell the story with the pictures,you will understand and remember it fully.This is an effective technique to bocst both your shorl-term and long-term memory. Third,put small tools to good use.Keep a small notebook in a fixed position,for example,by your bed.Tick off each task after you finish it,and review your notes in your free time,for example,when you are waiting in iine at the mall.You can keep important information,such as addresses,passwords and your bank account number,in the notebook.in this case,even if one day you forget a password,you can find it there.These little habits can also reduce anxiety before exams and help increase your memory power. There is no one-size-fits-all way to improve memory,so break the tips into small steps and try them one by one.In the writer's view,a good memory starts with good daily habits. 根据短文内容，回答下列问题。(10分) 66.According to the passage,what is sleep to the brain? 67.What should you do when you read a passage? 68.Where can you keep a small notebook? 九年英语第7页共8页 69.What can these little habits also reduce before exams? 70.What is the passage mainly about? 三、写作（15分) VI.根据要求，完成写作。 71步入九年级，紧凑的学习节奏让我们学会高效规划，在挑战中沉淀知识，在坚持中磨练意志， 收获满满的成长。.请以“The Changes That Have Taken Place in Me'”为题讲述你的成长故事与感悟。 内容提示： 1.刚升入初中时自己的学习状态与遇到的困难： 2.一位你敬佩的人带给你的影响，你发生的变化（学习、心态等）； 3.你掌握的学习方法以及对九年级学习生活的期待。 要求： 1.词数100左右： 2.要点齐全，语句通顺，逻辑连贯，书写规范： 3.文中不得出现真实的人名、校名。 The Changes That Have Taken Place in Me 九年英语第8页共8页
