Last term,I had a big problem with English vocabulary.I spent lots of time repeating words,yet I could hardly keep them in mind for long.I felt upset and wanted to change it.Then I came up with a creative plan.I made colourful mind maps,grouping words by topics and linking them with simple pictures.I also recorded myself reading these words and sentences,so I could listen to them on my way to school.Besides,I reviewed the maps before bedtime,because I knew sleep helps with memory.Gradually,my word memory improved a lot.I could use new words freely in sentences. From this experience,I realize that there is never one perfect way to study.If a method does not work,we can try to create our own.Small creative changes can bring big progress. 2026年秋季学期期中学业诊断 九年级英语 注意事项： 1．本试卷共8页，满分120分，考试时间120分钟。 2．答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在本试卷相应的位置上。 3．答卷全部在答题卡上完成，答在本试卷上无效。 4．考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 听力部分（共20分） 一、情景反应（每小题1分，共5分） 本题共有五个小题，每小题你将听到一组对话。请从每小题所给的A、B、C三幅图片中，选出与你所听到的信息相关联的一项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 1 A.

He got a national patent（专利）for it. It helps people who move with difficulty, especially old people, to go up stairs and hills. Wang made this machine for his grandma. He liked staying with her, but when she grew older, her legs got weak. She could hardly walk up the stairs to their home on the sixth floor. To help his grandma and other people like her, Wang began to study how people walk up stairs. “I first thought lifting the upper（上部分）leg was the hardest part,” said Wang. He tried this: he asked his parents to lift his upper leg when he climbed stairs, but it did not help much. Wang watched short videos to learn more. He found two main steps in each climb: lifting the upper leg and standing straight. “I finally found the most important point. The leg on the higher step holds the body's weight, and it needs much help,” Wang said. Wang met many hard problems when he invented the machine. He decided to make a tool to help people when they stand straight. With his dad's help, Wang built the tool with wheels and small engines. He put a special button. When the leg stands straight, the tool stops working so it will not hurt the user. In the future, Wang wants to start a small company to sell ExoLimb. “I think business helps engineering a lot. Mixing them together can make new things,” Wang said. 39. Who is the ExoLimb mainly for? A. Old people. B. Blind people. C. Silk children. 40. What BIG question does Paragraph 2 answer? A. When did Wang fall in love with invention? B. How difficult Wang's grandma's life was? C. Why did Wang invent this device? 41. How did Wang solve the problems in the process of his invention? A. By asking his grandparents for help. B. By watching short videos. C. By doing lots of climbing practice. 42. Which of the following is TRUE about Wang Guanxi? A. His dream of invention started from his childhood. B. His great invention is warmly welcomed by businessmen. C. He plans to bring his invention to the market in the future. 43. What can be the best title of the passage? A. A Creative boy's Growing Experience B. A Useful Climbing Helper Made by a Teenager C. A Grandson's Deep Love for His Grandma （C） 请阅读下面语篇，从每小题所给的A、B、C三个选项中，选出一个最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Huang Xuhua, a great Chinese scientist, passed away on February 6th, 2025. But his great achievements and strong spirit will always stay in our hearts and keep lighting up China's way forward. Huang was born in Guangdong Province in 1926. When he was young, he saw the hard times of China. Then he studied hard and decided to make the country strong with his knowledge. In the 1950s, China started to develop nuclear submarines（核潜艇）, but it was a very difficult task. Huang wasn't afraid and stepped forward bravely. At that time, there wasn't much advanced technology or many resources. The task was almost impossible. However, Huang and his team took on this challenge. To keep the project secret, they stopped keeping in touch with the outside world—even with their families. During the design process, Huang and his team met lots of problems. They couldn't get help from foreign experts, so they could only depend on their own research. They used simple tools like abacuses to calculate and do experiments with great effort. Another problem was to make sure the submarine was stable under the water. After many tests, they slowly solved all the problems. Finally, in the 1970s, China's first nuclear submarine was built and tested successfully. It made China one of the few countries that had this ability. But Huang didn't stop after this big success. He went on to help with the development of China's submarine technology. His hard work and devotion（奉献）won him many honours, including the Medal of the Republic in 2019. 44. What do we know about Huang Xuhua? A. He was born in the 1950s. B. He was the greatest scientist in China. C. He will be remembered by Chinese people. 45. What can we infer（推断）from Paragraphs 3–4? A. Huang and his team achieved a lot through their hard work. B. Huang's success was largely because of his family's support. C. Many foreign countries owned nuclear submarines at that time. 46. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about? A. The effect of China's first nuclear submarine. B. The development of China's nuclear submarines. C. Huang Xuhua's main achievements in his lifetime. 47. Which of the following words can best describe Huang Xuhua? A. Smart and kind. B. Creative and hard-working. C. Curious and responsible. 48. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To call on more people to work for China. B. To encourage people to learn from Huang Xuhua. C. To introduce a great Chinese scientist Huang Xuhua to us. （D） 请阅读下面语篇，根据其内容，从方框内所给的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，使其意思通顺，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有一项为多余选项。 For years, scientists have known that sleep is important for memory. But exactly how the brain organizes memories during sleep remained a mystery—until now. In March 2026, a research team from New York University published a new study in “Science”. ＿＿＿49＿＿＿ The study found that during deep sleep, a seahorse-shaped part deep in the brain sends new memories to another brain area for long-term storage. The team asked people to learn some navigation tasks, and then watched their brain activity while they slept. Surprisingly, their brains replayed these tasks at about 20 times normal speed. This replay helps strengthen brain connections for new memories. Dr. György Buzsáki, the lead researcher, explained, “＿＿＿50＿＿＿ Your brain works hard, going through daily experiences and choosing what to keep and what to throw away.” The study also shows sleep quality is more important than how long you sleep. ＿＿＿51＿＿＿ However, those people who slept the same hours but woke up often has a poor performance. “It is not just eight hours. It has to be good sleep,” Dr. Buzsáki said. ＿＿＿52＿＿＿ Education researcher Dr. Sarah Chen says the study proves what many teachers have thought. Students with good sleep learn better. Schools may start later to help students follow natural sleep habits. For students hoping to improve memory, the advice is simple: put away phones, turn off screens and sleep well at night. ＿＿＿53＿＿＿ This good habit may help have a better memory and do better at school. A. Your brain will finish the memory work. B. These results matter a lot for students and teachers. C. How much do you know about our memories? D. Sleep is not a rest state, it is an active process for memory. E. Those with continuous deep sleep remembered things much better. F. For the first time, they watched how the brain replays memories in deep sleep. （E） 请阅读下面语篇，根据其内容回答问题，并将答案写在答题卡相应的位置上。 Shanxi is a province which is famous for its long history and rich culture. In recent years, it has taken big steps to develop. Great changes can be seen in many areas, especially traffic and tourism. Better transport makes it easier for people to get around, and more people come to enjoy its heritage（遗产）and natural beauty. Here is some information about these exciting changes. Great progress has been made in Shanxi's traffic. More high-speed railways connect major cities. It used to take hours to travel between cities, but now high-speed trains make many trips much faster. The “Three No.1 Tourism Roads” are famous. They are over 13,000 kilometres long. These beautiful roads link villages, ancient buildings and places of interest. There are rest stops and viewing platforms（观景台）along the roads. More tourists choose self-driving trips here. Buses and special tourist lines also take visitors straight to popular places. Shanxi is well-known for its ancient wooden buildings. In the past, many wonderful heritage sites were hard for visitors to reach. Now things are different. Lots of old towns and temples get better protection. Pingyao Ancient City, Jinci Temple and Yungang Grottoes welcome more visitors every year. Many visitors come to learn about history and local culture. Local people open homestays（民宿）and sell special local food. Tourism helps villagers make more money. Many schools also organize study trips to these historic places. What do visitors say about the changes in Shanxi? Let's read some reviews of them. I came to Shanxi last summer. I took the high-speed train to Pingyao. The trip was smooth. The ancient city was amazing. I also drove along the Taihang No.1 Road. The mountains and old villages surprised me. I never thought there could be so much amazing changes in Shanxi. — Lu Yanpeng, visitor from Shaanxi This is my second visit to Shanxi. Years ago, it took me nearly a whole day to get to the Yungang Grottoes. Now the high-speed train saves lots of time. These great changes in Shanxi amazed me a lot.
