For example, a dog or a cat in North America eats better than a child in the poorer countries.The poor countries have some difficult problems. Sometimes the land is too poor to grow anything on. The land can get better, but people have to do a lot of things first. They should learn how to enrich their land and how to find water.But rich countries have problems, too. Sometimes the air is too dirty to breathe and the rivers are too dirty to swim in or to take water. The roads and the streets are full of people and buses. Cars usually move very slowly. Noise is terrible. A lot of people do not have houses to live in. People must do something about these problems. We should do something to make the air and the rivers clean and build more houses.

Every animal has its place in the balance(平衡) of nature. We should try to help save the animals.Some people think zoos are good places. The zoos give the animals the comfortable and safe living places. If the animals get hurt or ill, people will take care of them. The zoo is a good place to know the rules in the wild world. We can be much closer to nature. We can know more about the animals in the zoos by watching, listening even smelling instead of just looking at the pictures in books.Some people don’t th ink animals feel happy in the zoos. Animals like pandas, wolves and bears usually live in the wild. They play and find food by themselves. They are free and happy in the wild. If they are in the zoos, food is enough and rooms are comfortable. They do not need to do their best to find food to eat or places to stay in. They just walk around, sleep day and night, but they are not free at all.I think we should build national parks as wildlife nature reserves to protect.Help save the animalsIn the 1 The zoos 2 the animals with comfortable and safe living places.

Then one day, Sue saw Jim’s music collection.She noticed a rare punk rock CD that she also owned. At that moment, she realized that they both had the same interest in music and they started talking. Sue said, “I thought we had nothing in common（相同）until I saw his CD by the New York Dolls.” They are now married and living with each other.Some psychologists (心理学家) think that your taste in music is related to (有联系的) your personality. As part of a test at the University of Texas, Austin, USA, volunteers created a CD of their favourite songs. The volunteers then listened to each other’s CDs and made guesses a bout the CD creator’s personality—outgoing, adventurous, happy, and so on. These strangers correctly guessed much more about each others’ personalities through their CDs than through their clothes or taste in films. For example, Sue and Jim love punk music, which means they have outgoing personalities.The psychologists who did the test found Snoop Dogg (hip-hop) fans are likely to be energetic and talkative. People who like U2 (rock/pop music) are generally independent and adventurous.The psychologists also found that Louis Armstrong(jazz) fans tend to(倾向于) be shy. The psychologists were surprised to find that rap and heavy metal fans were also shier and quieter than many other music lovers.76.

Today, many teenagers are overweight, and the reason of this is because of their bad eating habits. Most teenagers love fast food with a lot of fat, oil, salt and sugar. People often call this kind of food “junk food”. But bad eating habits go beyond fast food. We find many teenagers eat unhealthily. Some don’t have breakfast before they go to school. During the day, some don’t have a proper meal for lunch. In a recent survey(调查) at one school, scientists found that over two thirds of the students didn’t follow a healthy d iet. They didn’t like vegetables, and many of them didn’t like to eat fruits. They preferred(更喜欢) to eat food with a lot of salt, sugar, or fat. Parents today also worry about their children’s diet. Some doctors give the following advice: Teenagers shouldn’t eat too much junk food. Teenagers shouldn’t eat food with too much salt. Salt can cause high blood pressure(高血压)in the future. Teenagers should eat food with less fat, oil, and sugar. Teenagers need to eat some fruits and vegetables every day. Fruits and vegetables are rich in vitamins(维生素)and have little fat. Teenagers need to drink more milk. Milk will help their bones grow. Teenagers need to eat breakfast every day. This is good for their body and mind.( )61.“Junk food” contains(包括)a lot of _____.A. milk and sugarB. fruits and sugarC. vegetables and saltD. fat, oil, salt and sugar( )62. In a recent survey at one school, scientists found many students liked _____.A. vegetablesB. fruitsC. healthy foodD. unhealthy food( )63. What does the underlined word “beyond” mean in Chinese in this passage?A. 超出B. 不如C. 相等D. 在后面( )64. In this passage doctors think that teenagers should eat more _____.A.food with no vitaminsB. fat and sugarC. vegetables and fruitsD. salt and oil( )65. The best title for this passage is _____.A.Bad HabitsB. Junk FoodC. Unhealthy FoodD. Advice on Healthy eatingCThe 2018 Winter Olympics ended up with the closing ceremony(仪式), and as the host of the 2022 Games in Beijing, China presented an eight-minute show that included much high technology(科技). Leading the team were two dancers in costumes(服装) of panda puppets that are the world’s largest but the lightest at the same time. Each of them weighs only about 10 kilograms. Researchers had tried hundreds of different materials to make the light costumes. Performers danced with 24 intelligent robots(智能机器人) which represent Beijing hosting the 24th Winter Olympics.They showed scenes of sports such as skating and skiing. The uniforms were also made with grapheme(石墨的单原子层) to keep the dancers warm. During the whole show the dancers and robots both wore LED lights on them that are able to endure(忍受) the cold weather at Pyeongchang Olympic Stadium without the risk of breaking. Images were projected to (被投影到) the icy floor while dancers skated across it, creating a sense of reality. A number of moving monitors(显示屏) in the middle of the filed were also controlled by artificial intelligence.(人工智能) ( ) 66.Which city is the host of the 24th Winter Games?A. PyeongchangB. BeijingC.

Sports第Ⅱ卷（非选择题共65分）五、阅读表达（10分） Like many other students, nine-year-old Minnal went abroad(国外) with her parents during the recent(最近的)school holidays. She climbed a mountain. For eight days in May, Minnal hiked nearly 100 kilometres to reach the5364-metre-high Everest(珠穆朗玛峰) base camp in Nepal. The girl talked about her special trip, “I think this was a meaningful climb for me.” Minnal has to wait for some years to climb the Everest because climbers have to be at least sixteen years to climb the peak. How did it all start? It all began last year when Minnal’s mother decided she might want to climb the famous Himalayas. As a good hiker, she asked both father and daughter if they were up for the challenge(挑战）.This year, on 20 May, the family flew to Nepal. Minnal told that most of the eight days were spent hiking ten to fifteen kilometres from 8a.m. to 6 p.m. each day. With the help of three local guides, they didn’t lose their way. Luckily, no body fell ill. She also said that she is thinking of climbing Everest in the future. How brave the girl is! She is really a hero.读短文回答下面问题。

The boy got the money by taking rubber from the trees. (The trees in the forest are not hurt when the rubber is taken. ) The forest and its people lived together comfortably and peacefully.But some people think too much about themselves and never think about the future. In 1980, they burned the forest to build roads, houses and factories. Chico was angry, he wanted to save the forest. He talked to the government workers, but they didn't listen to him. They were still clearing the rainforests to make money. "Many voices are stronger than one," he thought, so Chico held group meetings. He found that hundreds of people agreed with him. His hope grew. More people came to stop the work of the forest clearers. They saved large areas of the forest. Later he traveled to many other countries to ask for help. People soon became very interested in him.

Here’s how to get yours off to a flying start.When you set up your club, the first thing is to get members for your club. They could be friends, family or those you know through kinds of activities, but t hey should all love to read. A small group of seven to ten people is usually an ideal size for a book club. Too many people make the discussions difficult. Once you have a group, agree on how often you want to meet-----usually club members meet monthly. Pick a date and stick with it. That way, members can plan for it. Send out emails a week before the meeting to remind(提醒) them of the meeting time. Set meeting time length. An hour is a good start. Two hour s usually does the trick.Then, you need a good place. Libraries, parks and restaurants--- all the public(公共的) places make good meeting places. For many clubs, meeting at home works best because you don’t have to get dressed up, and homes are quiet. If members bring a plate of food or a bottle, it can help start conversation（谈话）Please don’t forget the most important thing--- the book! Think about the books your club will enjoy.

Around meal time, three times every day, relatives of the hospital’s patients use the kitchen to cook food for their loved ones.The kitchen was originally a breakfast stall (摊) run by a husband and a wife, Wan Zuocheng and Xiong Gengxiang. One day, in 2023, a young couple asked if they could use thestove (炉子) to cook food for their son who had bone cancer (骨癌). He wanted to eat his mother’s cooking while he was in hospital. Wan and Xiong let the young mother use their stove for free. Later on, Wan and Xiong offered their cookers for free, so other families could cook meals for relatives with illness. As words spread, people who had used their cookers began describing the breakfast stall as the “anti-cancer kitchen”. Some even called it the “kitchen of love”.To let more people cook at the same time, Wan and Xiong have turned their breakfast stall into a large kitchen. People who have used their kitchen really wanted to share the costs. As a result, Wan and Xiong set a price: One yuan to cook a dish or to buy a box of rice, and three yuan to cook soup. Water or seasoning (调味品) is free. For people from poor families, the couple refuse to accept their money.▲ They get up at 4 a.m. every day to prepare. They boil water and cook rice at first. To make it easier for others to use the kitchen, Wan and Xiong would like to clean the kitchen, like sweeping the ground and washing the pans and pots.Wan and Xiong have run the kitchen for 18 years. But they have never regretted their decision. They always listen to patients’ relatives talking about their experiences. They believe listening to them helps them feel relaxed. Xiong says, “It is the happiest thing to run the kitchen and help others.”36．What does the underlined word “originally” most probably mean?A．At least.B．Surely.C．Probably D．At first.37．How much will it cost to cook two dishes and a cup of soup in the kitchen?A．4 yuan.B．5 yuan.C．6 yuan.D．7 yuan. 38．What can be put in ▲ in the fourth paragraph?A．More and more people from poor families come to cook.B．Wan and Xiong think working in the kitchen is not easy.C．Wan and Xiong are busy from early morning.D．The couple’s children want them to take a break, but they always refuse. 39．According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A．Wan and Xiong like listening to the stories of others.B．The kitchen is free to people all the time.C．The kitchen is in a hospital in Nanchang.D．Many people help in the kitchen every day.40．Where can we read the passage?A．In a novel.B．In a science book.C．In a newspaper.D．In a story book.You have often looked into a mirror (镜子), of course. But you haven’t seen the real picture of your face yet. And why couldn’t you see it? When you look into a mirror, you don’t see your face as other people see it. You see a reversed picture. If you close your left eye, your picture closes its right eye. If you touch your right ear with your right hand, your picture touches its left ear with its left hand.If you have two small mirrors, you can see your faces as your friends see it. You hold the two mirrors at right angles (角度) to each other and look into them. After some practice, you will be able to see the real picture of your face.Now close your left eye and your picture closes its left eye too. Touch your right ear with your right hand and your picture touches its right ear with its right hand! This happens because each mirror reflected (反射) the picture in the other mirror. So you see a reversed picture of a reversed picture, which, of course, is the same as the real picture.41．When you look into a mirror, you couldn’t see ________.A．the picture of yourself B．the picture of your eyesC．the picture of your face D．your face as others see it42．What does the word “reversed” mean in this passage?A．暂存的B．相反的C．模拟的D．虚拟的43．According to the first paragraph of the passage, if you close your left eye, your picture in the mirror ________.A．closes its right eye B．closes its left eyeC．touches its right ear D．touches its left ear44．Which of the following pictures is right according to the second paragraph of the passage?(M=mirror P=person)A．B．C．D．45．We can learn something about ________ from the passage.A．body language B．Physical Education (体育)C．optical illusions (视错觉)D．television invention①A tree has roots (根). People have roots too. If you get to the root of a problem, you will solve it. It’s the same thing with words. Dig deeply into a big, unfamiliar word and you will understand where it came from.①As readers, especially those reading in a second language, we need to deal with the text as if we were detectives (侦探) looking for information to unlock the unknown. Like any good detective arriving on the crime scene, the first thing to do when meeting a new and difficult word is to judge the situation, to look at everything that is known and see if it helps us to understand what it means.①As you know, prefixes (前缀) and suffixes (后缀) can be added to the beginning or end of words to change the meaning. Know them, and you will have the word building power. But root words are the key. Take time to learn a few of these, put them in your memory, and you will become a master word detective.①Let’s look at one common root word used in English. “Alter” from the Latin (拉丁) word means “other”. When you meet this root word, you know that the bigger word has something to do with “other”. Examine the word “alternate”. Can you find the Latin root in it?①Learn as many root words as possible in the language you are studying. Then use your “rooting for words” skills. Like any new skill, practice and hard work are always paid back. 46．What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 2 refer to?A．The situation.B．The crime scene.C．A new and difficult word.D．Everything that is known.47．If Jim and Lily go to the movies, which one below is “alternating paying”?A．They each pay half.B．Jim pays every time.C．They take turns paying.D．Their parents pay for them.48．How does the author explain his ideas about root words?A．By giving a fact.B．By taking an example.C．By telling a story.D．By having a discussion.49．“Sen” from the Latin word means “old”. Which word in bold (粗体) uses this Latin root?A．My brother is my senior by two years.B．He was ill so he was absent from school.C．A criminal was sentenced to death by law.D．60 students were present at the sports meeting.50．Which of the following shows the structure (结构) of the passage?(①=paragraph 1①=paragraph 2, …)A．B．C．D．四、单词拼写51．(luck), Tom fell off the bike and hurt badly yesterday.52．Something is wrong with my father's new computer. It always turns (it) off. 53．Not only my parents and I but also everyone around us (be) excited about the Shengzhou-17 crew members’ first spacewalk on 21 December, 2023.54．It is wrong of you to think you are (hope). Hope is always around us. 55．—Daniel, you’d better take your study much (serious) if you hope for better grades in the final exam.—OK, Mr. Zhang.56．The foreign food may be (taste), but the Chinese food is much healthier and full of wisdom.57．I spent one (day) time making a video Mei Lanfang and His Hometown to take part in “Tell China’s Stories” competition.58．During the (33)Olympic Games in Paris, athletes from every part of the world gathered there to fight for their own country.59．(celebrate)the 75th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China, our school held some educational activities.60．—What do you think of the city?—Wonderful! I ________ (stay) here for another two years.五、任务型阅读Friends bring joy and fun to our life. To most of us, it’s always easy to make friends but hard to go on one more step closer to our friends. The tips below will help you.Be yourself with your friends.Sometimes your friends may find out that your true personality is completely different from what they thought it was. In order not to make them lose trust in you, find some proper time to tell them what you really often do and like to do. And they may understand you.Get through the difficult times with small tricks.People never know what kind of chocolate they are going to taste. It is true of life. When your friends taste the bad one, why not tell funny things about yourself, like “Am I like a round ball? ”. Hearing this, your friends may be happy again. The best friends may not always agree with each other and even have few words for days. Some small tricks like telling jokes or calling him or her nickname (绰号) may help you get along with your friends better.Find right ways to communicate (交流) warmly.There is no doubt that people like to communicate with their close friends as often as possible. Remember those special days in your friends’ lives. Sometimes you book a table to help celebrate your friend’s birthday, but when you call her, she tells you her birthday is not that day. Don’t make it happen and remember the exact date. Having some activities also provides (提供) good chances to meet and chat with your friends. Make sure your friends will come and have fun.六、短文填空短文填空There is no greater time than now to begin to live out your dreams. Do you want to know how to make them come true? Read the following steps 71 (get) started.The first thing you need to do is be clear about your dream. Then you will need to make some plans. For example, if you want to work 72 a writer, you need to plan how much time you will spend in reading and writing each day.Get started right away. Once you have plans, you need to carry 73 (they) out. It’s time to stop making excuses and 74 (put) off what can be done today until tomorrow.Though (尽管) you may not be progressing (进步) as 75 (quick) as you want, it’s great to keep moving forward. And one of 76 (important) things is not to think that you’ll only find 77 (happy) when your dreams come true. In fact, you should enjoy following every step of the way.78 remember to rethink (重新考虑) your dream if there is no progress all the time. Of course, if you work hard and make the right plans, you 79 (make) your dreams come true. But not everyone’s dreams can come true, especially (尤其) if your dreams need some luck.In a word, it’s not 80 easy job to achieve your dreams. Carry on and fight against all the difficulties until your dreams come true.七、书面表达81．假如你是李华，你收到了来自英国伦敦笔友Tommy的求助邮件，请你根据邮件内容，给Tommy回一封邮件。

（5分）Dear Helen,Thanks for your last letter. Yes, I'm enjoying myself in France. It's even better than I thoughtit would be. I was a bit nervous before I arrived here, but there was no reason to be.My host family is really nice. They go out of their way to make me feel at home. And you wouldn't believe how quickly my French has improved! I'm very comfortable speaking French now. Although I still make lots ofmistakes, it doesn't bother me as it used to. My biggest challenge is learning how to behave at the dinner table. As you can imagine, things are really not the same as the way they are at home. For example, you shouldn’t put your bread on your plate. You should put it on the table! I thought that was pretty strange at first, but now I'm used to it. You shouldn’t eat anything with your hands except bread, not even fruit! Another thing is that it is very rude to say you're full. If you don't want any more food, you should just say, "It was delicious." Also, it's rude to put your hands in your lap. You should always keep your hands, but not your elbows, on the table.I have to say, I find it difficult to remember everything, but I'm gradually getting used to things and don't find them so strange any more. I'll write soon and tell you more about life in France. Hope you're having a good school year.YoursMei Fei回答下面5个问题, 每题答案不超过5个词。
