The bus for Paris would not leave until five to twelve. He saw a lot of people waiting in the station. Some were standing in line(排队), others were walking around. There was a group of schoolgirls. Their teacher was trying to keep them in line. Tom looked around but there was no place for him to sit.He walked into the station cafe(咖啡馆). He looked up at the clock there. It was only twenty to twelve. He found a seat and sat down before a large mirror(镜子) on the wall. Just then, Mike, one of Tom’s workmates came in and sat with Tom.“What time is your bus?” asked Mike.“There’s plenty of time yet,” answered Tom.“Well, I’ll get you some more tea then,” said Mike.They talked while drinking. Then Tom looked at the clock again. “Oh! It’s going backward(倒行)!” he cried. “A few minutes ago it was twenty to twelve and now it’s half past eleven.”“You’re looking at the clock in the mirror.” said Mike. Tom was so sad(难过).

Most sharks are about two meters long and live in the oceans.A shark can smell something in the water, for example, the blood of animals. That helps them find their food. Sharks mainly eat fish, other sharks and plants in the ocean.Most sharks bite (咬) people by mistake. They think a person is a large sea animal. When the sun goes down or comes up, sharks are looking for food. So at these times people shouldn't go swimming in the ocean.Today people kill sharks for food and their skin.

They’re in their shells ---sleeping .Hot sun will dry out a snail’s body. So at the least sign of hot sun, a snail draws its body into its shell and closes the op ening with a thin cover. Then it goes to sleep. A snail will die in a heavy rain. So whenever it rains, it goes inside its shell house and goes to sleep. A snail can sleep for as long as it needs to. It can take a short sleep. Or it can sleep for days at a time. And it spends all the winter months in its shell, asleep.In spring the snail wakes up. Its body, about three inches long, comes out of from the shell. When hungry, the snail looks for food. It can’t see very well. Its eyes, at the ends of the top feelers are very weak. But its sense of smell is very strong. It helps the snail to the new greens. Then the snail’s little mouth goes to work.A snail’s mouth is no longer than the point of a pin(针). Yet it has 256,000 teeth! The teeth are so small that you can’t see them. But they do their work.. If you put a snail in a hard paper box, it will eat its way out. And if a snail wears out its teeth, it will grow new ones.Mostly, a snail looks for food at night .But on cloudy days it eats in the daytime. It eats all day long.

But her school doesn’t have a girls’ team. So for the past four years, Kayla has played on the boys’ team at St. John the Apostle School in Clark, New Jersey. That hadn’t been a problem until earlier this y ear. The team was told that it either had to ask Kayla and another girl to leave the team or end its season early.The team, called the Chargers, plays in a league (联赛) that didn’t allow mixed teams after fourth grade. When the league leader found out that there were girls in the team, he gave the coaches (教练) bad news. The team could keep playing but only without the girls.Keisha Martel, Kayla’s mom, is one of the Chargers’ coaches. She asked the team to take a vote (投票), knowing it would be difficult for the kids to choose.“They all said, ‘It doesn’t matter. We’re a team and we’re sticking together (团结一致),’” said Keisha.The Chargers wasn’t allowed to play for a few weeks, but then the league reversed its decision. The team, girls included, played the rest of the season. They even made it to the championship (锦标赛) game — and won!Kayla has some advice for other teams. “Make sure you are family —you have each other’s back,” she says.1.How many girls played for the Chargers?A.Two. B.Three. C.Four. D.Five.2.What was the bad news the Chargers’ coaches got?A.Some of them had to leave their jobs.B.The team had to keep playing without the girls.C.The team couldn’t play in the league anymore.D.There would be no basketball team at the school.3.What does Kayla’s mom do?A.She is the league leader.B.She is a basketball coach.C.She is a teacher at Kayla’s school.D.She is the headmaster of Kayla’s school.4.The underlined word “reversed” is closest in meaning to “_______”.A.forgot B.supported C.changed D.made5.What’s Kayla’s advice for other teams?A.They should practice more.B.Team members should support each other.C.They should not be afraid of making mistakes.D.Team members and coaches should trust each other.F18、How can we improve our l ife? Many people think that they have to accept whatever life throws at them. They’ll say, “this is my destiny (命运). I cannot change it.”Certainly not! You don’t have to suffer too much. Your destiny depends on yourself, not on any other factors.I know someone who says she just accepts what life gives her because she has done everything she can to improve it. Guess what her lifestyle is? She wakes up in the morning, goes to work, comes back home, relaxes, chats with people, watches TV, then goes to sleep. Next day, the same routine cycle follows. Huh! Is this what she calls “doing her best”? She believes she has tried her best. But in fact she hasn’t.Remember that you get what you pay. You just don’t sit around and wait for a million dollars to fall from the sky. You have to get off the couch, get your eyes off the TV screen, get your hands off the phone. Don’t expect your luck to change unless you do something about it. If something goes wrong, don’t just regard it as a little failure, but use it as feedb ack (反馈). Learn your lesson, make the most of the situation, and do something to solve the problem. It’s not enough to think positively (积极地), you also have to act positively.If someone’s life is in the trouble, do you just hope that things will____fine? Of course not! You get to do anything you can to save the person. So it is with your own life. It is not enough to hope for the best, but you have to do your best. In other words, don’t just stand (or sit) there, do something to improve your life.1.The wr iter’s attitude towards destiny is that ________.A.we can change it B.we can’t depend on ourselvesC.we must accept it D.we have to suffer it2.According to the passage, what should you do if something goes wrong?A.Regard it as a little failure. B.Get your hands off your phone.C.Sit around and wait for luck. D.Do something to solve the problem.3.The underlined word “turn out” in the passage means ________.A.翻转B.关闭C.变得D.清空4.From the passage, we know ________.A.we only need to hope for the best in our life.B.we can get what we pay if we think positively.C.the woman has tried her best to improve her life.D.maybe our luck will change if we do something about the life5.What would be the best title for this passage?A.Understand Yourself B.Improve Your LifeC.Believe in Yourself D.Accept Your LifeⅤ.书面表达19、假如你是刘梅,升入九年级后,你的学习和生活都发生了很大变化。

The capital of Egypt is Cairo. That is a really great city. It is the largest city in Africa. If you visit that city, you will find a very modern place with many cars, businesses, schools and homes.About 82 million people live in Egypt. They have a rich history. Long ago, Egyptians made it the greatest place in the world. They built pyramids. These very smart people invented ways to farm.Long ago, Egyptians were wonderful leaders who built great buildings and set up schools. They invented a special way of writing that was called hieroglyphics(象形文字). They looked like pictures instead of alphabet letters. You will still see hieroglyphics in Egypt today. But they are not used to read and write. They are a part of history.Egypt has a long history. It has been a leader for a long time. If you read Egypt's history, you will know how great this country has been.Today most Egyptians live near the banks of the Nile River. This is where the only good land to farm. It's a great place to live in. There are other parts that are difficult to live—they are deserts. So not many people live there. About half of Egypt's residents(当地人)live in cities. Those big cities are in the area of the Nile River. If you go to Cairo, the biggest city, you will find millions of people.Egypt is a great county. It has a wonderful history. It will have a great future because people are working hard.They are working together to get more jobs and homes.28.is the capital of Egypt.A.Cairo B.Berlin C.London D.Paris29.Egyptians created the following things except .A.pyramids B.hieroglyphicsC.ways to farm D.the Nile River30.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A.Egyptians invented ways to fishing.B.All of Egypt's residents live in cities.C.Not many people live in the deserts.D.We can't see hieroglyphics in Egypt now.31.What is the main idea of this passage?A.Egypt is a great country.B.Egypt has a long history.C.Egypt is a modern country.D.The Nile River is very important to Egypt.阅读理解Can anyone be an astronaut?Of course not. You don't have a science degree but most astronauts do. Most of them are pilots too. Life in a spaceship is hard so you must have a healthy body and mind. You need to be easy-going, patient, and helpful to spend so much time in a small space with other people.What's the training like?People have to train for a year to learn how to stay healthy and safe. They practice space walking and living in zero gravity. They train in difficult conditions to learn how to solve problems and to work in a team. Everyday tasks like eating, washing and sleeping can be difficult on a spaceship. There is no running water so you have to wash with wet tissues; it's hard to enjoy the dry food that astronauts have to eat. And to sleep you must cover your eyes because the sun rises every 90 minutes on the International Space Station. You also have to tie yourself to something so you don't fly away!What health problems do astronauts have?Life in zero gravity causes changes to our bodies. Bones and muscles(肌肉)become thin and weak so you must do a lot of exercise in space to stay fit and to help the heart move blood around your body. Astronauts often get backaches because you grow in space—up to 8 centimeters! It's also common to have headaches and to feel sick,especially at the beginning. You must have vitamins to take the place of fresh fruit and vegetables. But you don't have to put on sun cream because space suits protect your skin.Are you still interested?So now you know. If you want to go to space, study hard, learn to fly and take care of your body and mind. 32.What does the writer think of the life in a spaceship?A.Interesting.B.Boring.C.Useful.D.Hard.33.What's the Chinese meaning of the underlined word "tissues"?A.衣服B.纸巾C.抹布D.食物34.Which one is true according to the passage?A.People have to train for two years to learn how to stay healthy and safe.B.Astronauts have to tie themselves to something in order not to fly away.C.Astronauts can't grow in space.D.You must put on sun cream in a spaceship.35.What is the passage mainly about?A.What we need to know to become an astronaut.B.Why young people are interested in space trips.C.What problems astronauts must solve in space.D.Why we need to train hard before a space trip.阅读理解Shu embroidery(蜀绣)is one of the most famous embroidery styles in China. It's well-known for its strong expression and smooth needlework.The characteristics are greatly influenced by geographical environment, customs and cultures. As we all know, people in Sichuan Province enjoy a slow lifestyle, so when embroidering, they are usually patient and willing to spend time on pursuing the form's intricacy(复杂精致)and elegance (优雅). This could be the reason why Shu embroidery was listed as a national-level intangible cultural heritage(非物质文化遗产)in 2006.Making beautiful Shu embroidery products is never easy. It needs super workmanship(卓越工艺).Meng Dezhi, 59, was born to a family of embroiderers. She was one of the most talented employees at the Chengdu Shu embroidery factory. The long and repetitive nature of the process often challenges her. Even for an experienced master like Meng, finishing a piece needs several days or even a few months. And in winter, when her hands and feet are freezing, things become even more difficult, but her love for the work has encouraged Meng to continue."These experiences may sometimes discourage me, but the love for Shu embroidery always gives me courage tocontinue, "said Meng. Meng has also popularized the culture of Shu embroidery when the tradition was at the risk of fading(衰落). Many cheap products are made by modern machines. In 2005, the factory where Meng worked was forced to close. To make a living and pass along the traditional technique, Meng rented a small space of 10 square meters to teach Shu embroidery skills."In the early days, I set up the company just for living, but now I really feel that I have the responsibility to pass on Shu embroidery skills to young people, to let it run from generation to generation, "she told China Daily. 36.Why is Shu embroidery more special than other types of embroidery?A.Because it is characterized by intricacy and elegance.B.Because it changes local people's lifestyles.C.Because it is made by modern machines.D.Because it mainly includes pictures of flowers.37.What are the characteristics of Shu Embroidery?①strong expression ②smooth needlework ③intricacy④eleganceA.①②③B.①②④C.①③④D.①②③④38.Which mind map shows the right structure of the passage?A.B.C.D.39.What's the best title of the passage?A.Embroidery.B.Shu Embroidery.C.The introduction of Embroidery.D.The history of Shu Embroidery.(5分)补全对话.A: Good morning. 40.B: I'd like to buy a T-shirt for my son.A: Please follow me. 41.B: This one is OK.

She is the first person in China to set up a free senior high school for poor girls.Zhang Guimei was born in 1957 in Mudanjiang, Heilongjiang Province. In 1974, she reached Y unnan Province and began to work there the next year. In 1983, she became a school teacher. She loved her job and worked very hard. She was strict but kind to all her students.While Zhang Guimei was working in Huaping County, she noticed that many girls from poor families couldn't afford to go to school. So she came up with the idea of starting a free school for them. However, many people thought she was crazy at first, because they believed that starting a school was not easy and needed lots of money. In order to raise money, she had to ask for help everywhere and save every coin at the same time. With the help of the local government, she started Huaping Senior High School for Girls in 2008. The school provides not only free education but also necessary daily items(用品)for its students.Zhang Guimei has been so busy that she can hardly have any time for a good rest since her school was started. She loves her students and there is a special teacher-student relationship between them. Her students all call her"mother".After years of hard work, the school has made great achievements. In the past fifteen years, as many as 2, 000 poor girls from the school have entered universities or colleges. As a result, their life has been changed.45.Is Zhang Guimei the first person in China to set up a free senior high school for poor girls?46.How old is Zhang Guimei now?47.How did she start a free senior high school for poor girls successfully?48.What do you think of Zhang Guimei?

They always take their shoes off before they go in. Then they usually sit on the floor around a small, low table. In the evening they often sing songs.”“You usually take chocolates or flowers. But you always take an odd number of flowers, and you remove the paper before you give them to the hostess. You can also send flowers before you arrive. you don’t usually take wine except when you visit very close friends.”“We always offer our guests something to drink when they arrive, tea, coffee or perhaps water or soft drinks. We think it is polite to accept a drink even if you’re not thirsty. If you visit someone you always stay for a few drinks. When you have had enough to drink, you tap your cup or put your hand over it. If you say no, your host will insist that you have more to drink.”“People’s private lives are very important so they never ask you personal questions about your family or where you live or your job. They never talk about religion or matters of finance, education or politics, but usually stay with safe subjects like the weather, films, plays, books and restaurants.”“It’s difficult to know when to leave, but an evening meal usually lasts about three or four hours. When the host serves coffee, this is sometimes a sign that the evening is nearly over, but you can have as much coffee as you want.”“If the invitation says eight o’clock then we arrive exactly at eight. With friends we know well, we sometimes arrive about fifteen minutes before.”“Obviously it depends on the occasion, but most dinner parties are informal. The men don’t usually wear a suit, but they may wear a jacket and tie. Women are usually smart but casual.”44. The writer of the passage is probably_____.A. ChineseB. JapaneseC. the EnglishD.

The colour of the lions is similar to that of the dried grass found in the sandy desert. The tapirs (貘) which live in the jungles (丛林) have a colour pattern which seems of little use the front of their bodies, their heads and their legs are black, while the rest is white. We can pick out the tapirs easily at the zoo but in their homeland it is not so. They hunt at night when there are patches of moonlight andpatches of shadow and this makes them less noticeable (显而易见).Some other animals change their colours to suit the surroundings. For example, the arctic fox changes the colour of its coat in winter to blend in with the snow, so that it becomes less visible.49.
