When he was 22,he lost his right leg in an accident on a business trip.In 2018,Cai began using a prosthetic (and relearned to walk.But stepping outside was another fight for him. The stares (he received made him uncomfortable. A turning point came through Wei Qing,who is a member of a local disabled persons' organization.Wei visited Cai repeatedly,gently inviting him to attend group outings.Cai finally went.“I realized I wasn't alone,.”he said.. Around 2020,Cai tried starting a fried chicken delivery (business but failed."Don't rush.Take your time,"his mother told him.Hearing her words,Cai stepped back and poured himself into training programs.In 2023,he won a national championship for persons with disabilities in tea art-an achievement that gave him the confidence to start his prosthetics company the same year. As a prosthetic user himself,Cai could better understand his customers."Traditional companies fit you and send you away,"he said."We provide whole life cycle service:pre-fitting training,fitting,and future suppert." His athletic career has also taken off.In 2025,Cai was chosen for China's disabled park golf (team.When he isn't on the green or in the company,he travels as a speaker for schools across Zhejiang province.

D.Face challenges bravely. B It is easy to be worried about the future of our planet.Forests are disappearing.Water cycles are breaking down.Pollution is harming cities.But I am still a little bit hopeful about our planet's future. Nature is making a comeback in many places.Even in the worst landscapes,nature is developing and regaining(its own land.Wolves are moving across Europe and there are nore tigers in India.I am not saying we should stop worrying about losing biodiversity(生物多样 )but the good news is that nature isn't so fragile.And in many parts of the world,we are giving it more room to do its thing.For example,farmers are returning land to nature in some areas. The population is getting smaller.We used to think a continuing baby boom(生育高峰)was a danger to the planet.But today,couples are having half as many children as half a century ago. In fact,the fear in much of the world is that the population is becoming smaller. Our modern world depends less on materials.This century,the UK's consumption (of materials has fallen from 16 tonnes a year per head to 11 tonnes.Why?We make much more with less by using modern ways of producing goods.And today's wealthy people spend less money on materials and more on lifestyle experiences:eating out,taking exercise,attending concerts and so on. I agree that the worst could still happen.To avoid it,we have no choice but to act.And that means staying positive. 45.How does the writer explain people's worries about the planet in paragraph 1? A.By telling stories.B.By describing facts.C.Byoffering advice D.By comparing ideas. 46.What does the underlined word"fragile"probably mean in paragraph 2? A.active. B.light. C.weak. D.quiet. 47.According to the passage,today's wealthy people may spend more moneyA. A.doing sports B.buying clothes C.producing goods D.holding concerts 48.What is the passage mainly about? A.How we can protect our future planet.B.How we can control population growth. C.Why we should reduce the use of materials.D.Why we should stay hopeful about the earth. I am a free dog called Johannes.I live in a large park by the sea.Freya is one of the three Bison(野牛)who live in an area with a fence(篱笆)within the park.Recently,I wanted to set them free and I almost succeeded. Towards the end of the journey,Freya said to me,"We can't go on that ship." “But it's right down there,,”I said..“We've already done the hard part.The goats(羊)have performed their duties,jumping and crying and making chaos()all around,so you wouldn't be found when you hid among them.Everything's ready."I was worried,for the sky was growing brighter,and it would be more difficult for the goats to hide the Bison from humans as they went down the hill. 九年级英语第5页共8页 "No,"Freya said."We're not going.We thought we could,but this short journey has already proven we are not ready for more.We can't make it." "But why let me-let all of us-go through all this trouble?"I asked. "You needn't be angry,"Freya said."Or sad.Or even surprised.Look at us.We're slow and old.We couldn't go across the sea in strange boats.Seeing this is enough." She was still looking at the morning sea,which had grown brighter and whiter.She turned to me then."Thank you,Johannes."She turned to the goats."We are so thankful.We have lived quiet lives.But you have freed our eyes and our minds.What you did today mattered a great deal. You gave us the sea.And we will not forget it." I tried to organize my thoughts.Was all this for nothing?And would we all have to go back to the park?I stood on the top of that small mountain,wondering what to do. Then one of the goats said to me,"You could come with us.We will protect you,and when you reach the mainland,you can stay with us,or simply run free.There are a million free dogs like you.You can run with them and see places and things." I thought about this.I knew it was true.I knew I would go. 49.What did Freya think of their journey? A.It was worth it. B、It-was too long. C.It was boring. D.It was smooth. 50.What can we infer from paragraph 3? A.The goats haven't performed their duties. B.Their plan was very well-organized. C.The Bison were at the foot of the hill. D.Their secret was discovered by humans. 51.What would Johannes do in the end? A.Protect the goats. B.Join the Bison(野牛)， C.Continue the journey with the goats. D.Return to the park. 52.What is the theme of the story? A Some friends cannot be trusted. B.Humans can make friends with animals.

We use it to have a chat,play a game,tell jokes,ask for help,and do a thousand other things. 53 The everyday use of language is to have conversations with each other. Having a conversation seems like the most natural thing in the world.We don't think twice about it now.But it wasn't always that way.We had to learn how to do it.We had to learn rules. What's the most basic rule of having a successful conversation?We take turns.I speak and then you do and then I do and then you do.54In an argument,we do sometimes hear a lot of people speaking together.But once the argument ends,everyone takes turns again. This is especially important if there are several people taking part in a conversation. Imagine:you're in the street talking to three other people about the latest film Dear You.55 If it's going to be a successful conversation,then all four of you need to get the chance to have your say.If that happens,everyone's happy.If that doesn't happen,you can end up feeling quite mad. 九年级英语 第6页共8页 _5 We have to learn how to do it.And babies start that learning process very early on,during the first year of life.They hear their mother talking...they coo or babble... the mother replies...they coo or babble again...the mother replies again. Listen-speak-listen-speak-listen.That's the key of any conversation.We have to learn to be listeners as well as speakers. A.We don't speak at the same time B.Some people are always cutting in. C.Turn-taking doesn't come naturally D.Everyone has got something to say about it. E.None of these could happen without language. F.We have learned all the sounds in our language. 六、阅读短文回答问题，每题答案不超过10个单词（共3小题，分别为1、1、2 分，满分4分) Sometimes,students may have back or neck pain after class.Their pain might be a result of chairs too low for their height.When they sit uncomfortably for too long,they may get tired during classes.And this makes it difficult for them to take an active part in learning activities. One way to solve this problem is to adjust (the height of their chairs.Adjustable chairs are designed to help students sit straight with their feet flat (on the floor and their knees at a 90-degree angle().Each student can choose their own chair height to fit their body and desk height.Proper chair height can help students reduce pain on the neck,shoulders,and lower back. Students spend hours sitting on their chairs every day.The chair becomes a silent partner in their development.The right chair allows students to focus better.But some students prefer to sit at a lower height than normal.This is not good for their health as well as their study.They need to know that a balanced sitting position can make a big difference. 57.What may happen if students sit uncomfortably for too long? 58.How can students reduce()back or neck pain according to the passage? 59.What else can be a"silent partner"in your life?How does it make a difference to you? 七、综合填空（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） The Mogao Caves are famous for their ancient wall paintings.In Cave 257,a painting made during the Northern Wei Dynasty 60(telr)atouching story and attracts many tourists.
