In China alone, over 400million people use such apps. For better or for worse, online food delivery s 72have changed the way we eat, and they are also having a huge influence on oursociety.These apps have no doubt bringing us many benefits. They provide jobs for millions of people and help restaurants find more customers. S 73 the apps are very convenient, they also benefit consumers. We can now have meals delivered at any time of day, which is especially important forpeople who work long hours, as they might not have time to cook. Not only do these apps save time, they also provide us with a wide variety of restaurants to choose from.However, we must not forget the problems of online food delivery. For one thing, they make it even easier to order u 74 food, high in sugar, fat and salt. Food safety is another problem. It can be hard to tell where the food a 75 comes from, and whether the owner is allowed to run a restaurant. As couriers (递送者) need to deliver the orders as quickly as possible, some may pay less attention to traffic rules. These years, there have been a number of terrible traffic accidents because of this. Moreover, the industry is p 76 unbelievable amounts of packaging waste. Over a million tons of online food delivery boxes are thrown away every year.There are many good points of online food delivery, but we need to make sure that we make theright c 77 in the long run. We should do our best to limit waste, especially when it comes to packaging. We also need to think about what we eat and the influence on our health. Next time you want to order in, you should think about whether you really need to. In most cases, it is better to walk over to the supermarket, buy the ingredients you need, and then cook them on your own.71-77 without, services（softwares）, Since, unhealthy, actually, producing, choice2020-2021学年上海市徐汇区九年级上学期期末教学质量测试B.Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words.If you think of the jobs that robots could never do, you would probably put doctors and teachers at the top ofthe list. It’s easy to imagine robot cleaners and factory workers, but others need human connection and creativity. But are we underestimating（低估）what robots can do? In some cases, they already p 71 better than doctors at diagnosing illness. Also, some patients might feel more c 72 sharing their private information with a machine than a person. Could there be a place for robots in education after a ll?British education expert Anthony Seldon thinks so. And he even has a date for the robot takeover of the classroom: 2027. He p 73 robots will do most work of transferring information and teachers will be like assistants. Intelligent robots will read students’ faces, movements and maybe even brain s 74 . Then they will adapt（使…适应）the information to each student. It’s not a popular opinion and it’s unlikely robots will ever understand other people’s feelings and be able to really connect with humans like another human can.One thing is certain, though. A robot teacher is better than no teacher at all. Teachers all over the world are l 75 . In some parts of the world, there aren’t enough teachers and 9 to 16 percent of children under the age of 14 don’t go to school. That problem could be partly solved by robots because they can teach anywhere and won’t suffer from stress, or get t 76 , or move somewhere for an easier, higher-paid j ob.Teaching is generally recognized as difficult and teachers feel overworked. Perhaps the question is not “Will rob ots take the place of teachers?” but “How can robots help teachers?” Office workers can use software to do things like organize and answer emails, arrange meetings and update calendars. Teachers waste a lot of time doing non-teaching work, i 77 more than 11 hours a week marking homework. If robots could cut the time teachers spend marking homework and writing reports, teachers would have more time and energy for the parts of the job humans do best.71. perform 72. comfortable 73. predicts 74. signals75. limited 76. tired 77. including 2020-2021学年上海市长宁区九年级上学期期末教学质量测试C.

Britain, with, travel around, you, a local tour guide, had better. （连词成句）____________________________________________________________Part 3 Reading and WritingVI. Reading comprehensionChoose the best answerMy favorite area in Britain is a country called Northumberland in the north-east of the country. I like it because it has mountains, the sea and history. The mountains are not very high. In China you would probably call them hills rather than mountains as they are less than 1,000 meters high, but there is something wild about these mountains you get afeeling of space and freedom. You can walk for miles without meeting another person.Northumberland is full of history. There are seven castles, some of them were ruined and the others still there as they were centuries ago. You can find graves going back to prehistoric（史前的）, times and strange carvings on rocks which nobody understands. The coast line is dramatic too, with beautiful sandy beaches. These beaches are rarely crowded because the weather is unpredictable and the North Sea is very cold! People don’t go for seaside holidays to Northumberland because of the cold sea and weather, so even in high season there aren’t many tourist s.There is an island called Holy Island off the coast of Northumberland, you can get to the island by car or on foot when the tide is out. There is also one castle I particularly like. It is a 14th century castle which stands on a cliff right by the sea. The castle is almost completely ruined, but it looks dramatic and romantic because you can still see the gate and two of its owners. On a summer’s day you can lie on the beach nearby and let your mind wander as you look at this dream-like castle. On a wint er’s day you can walk to the castle and watch the waves crash into the cliff, wondering how this castle has stood so long against the forces of nature.I once said to a friend of mine that I thought this castle by the sea was the most beautiful place in the world. She laughed and said there must be many more dramatic places in the world. In one way, I’m sure she’s right, but for me, it’s not just about what a place looks like, it’s about what it says to you.44. In China people probably call them mountains which are ______ 1,000 meters high.A. less thanB. nearlyC. more thanD. almost45. How are the seven castles in Northumberland?A. They are modern and fantastic.B. They are all complete and magnificent.C. Some hasn’t changed at all for cen turies.D. Some are full of strange carvings.46. Not many people visit the beautiful beach because of ______.A. the soft sandsB. the cold sea and weatherC. the warm seaD. the island nearby47. Which of the following is NOT TRUE about the reason why the author likes the 14th century castle?A. It was built in the 14th century on a cliff right by the sea.B. It looks very dramatic and romantic with two towers but no gate.C. The author can let his mind wander as he looks at this dream-like castle.D. The author can walk to the castle and watch the waves crash into the cliff.48. From the last paragraph in the passage, we know ______.A. the author’s friend agreed on his opinion about the castle.B. the author doesn’t think there are many more dra matic places in the world.C. the author’s friend pays no attention to the beautiful scenery.D. what the author cares is not only the scenery but also the feeling he can get from it.49. You can get the passage from the following materials EXCEPT ______.A. science fictionB. journalsC. newspapersD. magazinesChoose the best answer and complete the passage.The first day of university our professor introduced himself and challenged us to get to know someone we didn’t already know. I stood up to look around when a ___50___ hand touched my shoulder. I turned around to find a wrinkled（有皱纹的）, little old lady with a smile. She ___51___ a minute and said, “Hi, handsome. My name is Rose. I’m eighty-seven years old. Can I give you a hug?” I laughed and responded, “Of course you may!” and she gave me a big one.We became immediate friends. Every day for the next three months, we would leave class together and talk nonstop.I always loved listening to this ‘time machine’ ___52___ she shared her wisdom and experience with me. Over the course of this year Rose became a campus role model and she ___53___ made friends wherever she went. She loved to dress up and she loved the attention from the other students.At the end of the term we invited Rose to speak at our football club. I’ll never forget what she taught us. She was introduced and stepped up to the platform. As she began to deliver he prepared speech, she dropped her cards on the floor. A little upset she simply said, “I’m sorry I’m so nervous. I ___54___ beer for Lent（大裔节）and this wine is killing me! I’ll never get my speech back in order …” As we laughed, she cleared her throat and began, “We do not stop playing because we are old; wo grow old because we stop playing. There is a huge ___55___ between growing older and growing up. Anybody can grow older, but it does take talents and abilitie s to grow up…”One week after graduation Rose died peacefully in her sleep.

As a result, about 300 million children around the world go barefoot. Those children risk picking up diseases and parasites（寄生虫）from the soil.An American man has a s___57___ for those barefoot kids – a shoe that grows with the child. Kenton Lee is the creator of The Shoe That Grows. He explains how the shoe works and how it is able to last so long.“It grows in three places: the front, the side and the back with the child. It can last up to five years. The b___58___ is compressed（压缩的）rubber like tire rubber. The top is just high-quality leather.”The shoe comes in two sizes: small that fits children aged 4 to 9 and large for children aged 9 to 14. Lee says he got the idea for the shoe while working as a v___59___ in an orphanage i n Kenya. “… and there was a little girl in a white dress walking next to me. And I just remember looking down and seeing how small her shoes were. And she had to c___60___ open the front of her shoes to let her toes（脚趾）stick out. At that time I just rememb er thinking, wouldn’t it be nice if there were a pair of shoes that could grow with her feet?” However, Lee says it was i___61___ to turn his idea into a reality at that time. “Yet I kept writing down I should do this because of this or because of that. Al l these reasons why it really was important for me to try to make the shoes grow are to try to help them.” Finally, in 2009 Lee founded a non-profit organization called Because International. Together, they have sent over 50,000 pairs of shoes to 70 countries. Lee says a pair shoes gives a child self-worth and more chances to succeed b___62___ much protection. Answer the questionsYou are invited to a large party. Loud music is playing, and lots of people are dancing. Do you dance or talk to as many people as you can call all night? Later, you cannot fall asleep—you want more conversation! Or do you prefer a quieter corner? Or perhaps you cannot wait to go home early and relax by yourself.Which of these people sound most like you? Person A, who tries to talk to everyone and stays late? Or Person B, who prefers to keep quiet and leaves early?If you said Person A, you are probably more extroverted（性格外向的）. If you said Person B, you are probably more introverted（内向的）. Or perhaps you are Person C and fall somewhere in the middle. Introverted and extroverted people are two commonly used words to describe a person’s personality. And they are also commonly misused and misunderstood.Introverts may be thought as quiet, shy and timid. Extroverts may be thought as bold, confident, loud and full ofenergy. Introverted and extroverted people may fit those descriptions. But these same descriptions do not define（下定义）introversion and extroversion properly.Introverts and extroverts use their brains differently, and they get their energy differently. Introversion is the state of being mostly concerned with one’s own mental life. Extroversion is the opposite. Extrov ersion is the state of being mostly concerned with what is outside oneself.People who consider themselves introverts may say they “need to be alone to charge their batteries”. However, introverts may still live being social and going to parties. But such activities require time to prepare.Extroverts may say, “I don’t need ‘alone time’, I feel more relaxed being around other people.” Even so, extroverts can still feel unsure or not confident among other people.So where do you fall on the introversion/ extroversion chart?63. If Person B is invited to a large party, what does he probably do?64. Which three words in this passage are used to describe introverts?65. What’s the main idea of the 5th paragraph?66.

There is nothing that can prevent a hurricane(飓风) or tornado from causing destruction if it reaches a 41 area. History offers numerous examples of storms that have destroyed large numbers of homes and killed many people. But today things are not as 42 as they were in the past. By studying the conditions that cause storms, weather forecasters are better able to predict them and give people in their paths the warning needed in 43 to keep away from tragedy.A storm is 44 as a sudden, extreme change in the normal conditions of Earth’s atmosphere. Examples include a large flood of moisture (湿气) or a sharp increase in wind speed. These types of 45 are generally caused by a dramatic change in air pressure. In fact, air pressure often affects weather more than any other factors.Hurricanes are somewhat 46 to tornadoes because both produce atmospheric vortices.

Butterflies come in every color imaginable, and their 50 display an incredible variety of patterns. The largest butterfly, Queen Alexandra’s Birdwing, has a wingspan(翼展) of up to 280 millimeters and lives in Papua New Guinea. The smallest, the Western Pygmy Blue in the southern U.S., has a wingspan of only 12 millimeters. Sadly, some of these beautiful creatures are now 51 .Estimates indicate that between 15 and 20 thousand species of butterflies exist around the world. A number of these species are endangered, over 20 in Japan 52 . Although that number may seem small, losing even one species would be 53 . Nowadays scientists even look to butterflies as a 54 of the environment’s health, since they are 55 to environmental changes. Many environmentalists around the world are eager to protect the endangered butterflies from extinction. The American Museum of Natural History in New York, for example, has an unusual butterfly exhibit. This exhibit 56 the important role that butterflies play in our environment.In recent years, environmental groups have made significant progress in 57endangered butterfly populations. Governments throughout Asia have passed laws to help protect endangered wildlife, including butterflies. An area called Butterfly Valley in Assam, India, has become the focus of conscious 58 to protect the butterflies’habitat(栖息地). Other projects in Serbia, Japan, and Canada are also hoping to 59 . Some of these efforts are already starting to work. The population of the El Segundo Blue Butterfly in California, for instance, has increased by 8 percent since 2010.Finding a cure for the butterfly crisis is, 60 , not just for environmental groups. 61 citizens can plant butterfly gardens to support and enjoy these gentle creatures. A group of female prisoners in Belfair, Washington, are helping to rescue an endangered species called Taylor’s Checkerspot. They recognize how 62 seemingly insignificant creatures can be.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)When I was in college, a man named Henry worked as a custodian (看门人) in our student union building. White-haired, with a Pennsylvania Dutch accent, Henry could usually be seen in a baseball cap, a T-shirt and a pair of jeans.He was the custodian, and he was the most respected and most well-known person in the building. Everyone loved Henry, and it was because of all the implicit ways he expressed his love for everyone around him. Henry didn’t have to say, “I love you.” He lived his love.Henry was always excited when he met someone new, and he wanted to know everything about them. He felt it was important to do things for people he valued. And Henry seemed to value everyone he met. He brought in articles or cartoons for certain people, went out of his way to introduce people to each other, kept dozens of names and birthdays in his wallet so he could send cards, and helped students keep in touch with graduates who had written to him. He even assisted students who didn’t have enough money to buy their books.Henry taught me --- and many others he supported --- how to live life to the fullest. Not by skydiving or exploring some foreign countries, but by appreciating where you are in life and valuing those around you.The funny thing is that despite all he did and taught us, Henry truly believed that he was the lucky one --- that he was the one who was gaining so much by getting to know us. But all of us who remember Henry know that we were the ones who were truly blessed.We will never forget the man who taught us that best way to say “I love you”often has little to do with the words.65.What does the word “implicit” in Paragraph 2 most probably mean?A. Unstated.B. Appropriate.C. Indelicate.D. Charming.66.According to the passage, working as a custodian in a college, Henry ______.A. made international travels to live a full lifeB. was a role model of how to be a caring personC. was busy organizing former students’ reunionsD. gathered plenty information about the needy students67.Henry was always excited to meet new people because ______.A. it would make people think highly of himB. he was the most popular person in the collegeC. it was part of his responsibility as a custodianD. he treasured everything around him in his life68.Which of the following word cannot be used to describe Henry?A. Gracious.B. Adventurous.C. Supportive.D. Sympathetic.(B)69.Where does the receipt most probably come from?A. Suitcase Tracing Website.B. Delivery Center of United Airlines.C.

Information Center of the Airport.70.From the receipt we can learn that John Jackson ______.A. must have filed his Delayed Baggage Report alreadyB. couldn’t deal with his delayed baggage on line until July 17, 2012C. should call 802-247-9999 for the information about his delayed baggageD. may not know anything about his delayed baggage during the first five days71.Which of the following information is not provided in the receipt?A. The description of the customer’s checked suitcases.B. The regular routine of the delayed baggage tracing.C. The contact phone number of Albany N.Y. Airport.D. The customer’s delayed baggage file reference number.(C)The candidate longing for election to the highest office in the United States must be native-born American citizen who is at least 35 years old and who has lived in the United States for at least 14 years. The election course is complicated, and the road to the Oval Office is long.Potential candidates must present papers stating their intention to seek their party’s recommendation; delegates then choose from among those running some months later at the national conferences. Before that, however, each state holds a primary election that determines how the state’s voters want the party’s delegates to vote. Methods of choosing the delegates vary from state to state. At the conferences, there are speeches and often heated discussions. It may take several rounds of voting before delegates can agree on a candidate. On the final day of the meeting, the presidential candidate announces his or her choice for vice president.Election Day, by law, is the Tuesday that follows the first Monday in November. On this day, registered voters may cast their votes for president, vice president, and candidates for other federal(联邦), state, and local offices. The popular vote, however, does not determine who will be president. The president is chosen by a vote of the Electoral College, a group of 538 citizens from the 50 states and the District of Columbia who are chosen to cast votes for the president and vice president.The rules for choosing electors, as with the delegates, vary. Each state alsodecides whether its electoral votes must reflect the popular vote. The number of electors in each state is determined by the number of representatives and senators (议员) that a state sends to Congress and, therefore, may change every 10 years, depending on the results of the United States census (人口普查). The winner must get at least 270 of the electoral votes when the Electoral College meets in December of the election year. The election results are not official, however, until the following January, when Congress meets in a joint conference to count the electoral votes.At the end of the road to the Oval Office is the swearing-in ceremony, at which the new or reelected president takes the oath (誓言) of office on January 20.72.Which of the following is not a requirement for candidates for the presidencyof the USA?A.

The Process of the Election for the President of the USASection CDirections: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.76.Try to identify any situations that have contributed to your depression. When you know what has got you feeling blue and why, talk about it with a caring friend, for talking is a way to release the feelings and to receive some understanding. If there’s no one to tell, pouring your heart out to a journal works just as well. Once you air out these thoughts and feelings, turn your attention to something positive. Feeling connected to friends and family can help relieve depression and it may also help them feel there’s something they can do instead of just watching you hurt.77.Depression affects a person’s thoughts, making everything seem miserable, negative, and hopeless. If depression has you noticing only the negative, make an effort to notice the good things in life, say considering your strengths, gifts, or blessings may help.78.With depression, a person’s creativity and sense of fun may seem blocked. Exercise your imagination by painting, sewing, writing, dancing or composing music, and then you not only get those creative juices flowing, you also loosen up some positive emotions. Take time to play with a friend or a pet, or do something fun for yourself, or find something to laugh about — a funny movie, perhaps, becauselaughter helps lighten your mood.79.Taking a 15-to 30-minute brisk walk every day --- or dancing, jogging, or biking if you prefer makes you feel less depressed. Once you get in the exercise habit, it won’t take long to notice a difference in your mood. In addition to getting aerobic exercise, some yoga poses can help relieve feelings of depression. Two aspects of yoga --- breathing exercises and meditation --- can help people withdepression feel better.80.In depression, some people may not feel like eating at all, while others might overeat. If depression has affected your appetite, you’ll need to be extra mindful of getting the right nourishment, for proper nutrition can influence a person’smood and energy. So eat plenty of fruits and vegetables and get regular meals even if you don’t feel hungry, try to eat something light, like a piece of fruit, to keep you going.Section DDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.“Neither a borrower nor a lender be.”Although this might be excellent advice in matters concerning family and friends, borrowing and lending are frequently the foundation of a booming economy.A loan is a sum of money borrowed for a limited period. A loan may be obtained from an individual or from an institution such as a bank and is generally granted at a specific rate of interest. Interest is the fee that the borrower pays to use the money. An extremely high rate of interest --- and certainly any amount more than law permits --- is called usury. Lending money can be a risky business, for there is always the possibility that the borrower may not be able to pay the loan. For this reason, a lender generally requires the borrower to register something valuable of his or hers, known as collateral(抵押), as a part of the loan agreement. A house or an automobile, investments in the stock market, even the value of a business, are all examples of collateral that a lender may be willing to accept in the event that the borrower fails to pay the loan.There are two major sorts of loans: consumer loans and commercial loans. A consumer loan is one that is made to an individual, and it may be to buy a house or an automobile or to finance an education. A commercial loan may be used to start a new business, pay for new equipment and staff, or expand an office or factory. The business of making loans also contributes to a healthy economy by enhancing the employment market. Loans allow consumers to buy and improve homes, creating jobs for carpenters, architects and etc. Loans enable businesses to expand, and when these businesses open a branch office or a new store, they also increase their consumption of office supplies, furnishings, and computers.In a booming economy, money circulates quickly, and each deal represents earnings for someone. It may be reasonable to say that a certain level of debt is normal, even necessary, to a healthy economy as long as the individual borrower or business is careful and try not to take on more than a manageable amount of debt.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)81.“Neither a borrower nor a lender be.” is excellent advice for keeping goodfamily and friends while it is __________.82.What is the purpose of collateral in a loan agreement?83.Different from commercial loans, consumer loans may be used to __________.84.How can the individual borrower or business profit from a booming economy?第II卷（共45分）I.
