Just then a red­haired girl passed by. “Hello there！” said Kelly.“Hello，” said the girl, but she didn't stop. In fact, she seemed to walk faster. Kelly was unhappy. She thought it would be boring if she couldn't make any friends in the village.After a while, Kelly climbed up on the rocks and began to paint. She was painting a blue band (条纹) when she heard someone climbing up the rock behind her. She knew her parents were on the beach below. Who could this be? She turned her head to look. It was the red­haired girl!“Can I watch you painting？” asked the girl.Kelly was so surprised that she could hardly answer. But she said, “Of course! I'm not much of a painter, though.” The girl, Marie, then sat down beside Kelly.“I just couldn't keep away when I saw you painting！” she said. “I guess you painted the blue band for the sea. Maybe you could mix a lovely blue with green.”Kelly gave it a try and said, “You are so great！”“Are you going to stay long？” asked Marie.“Well, I think so，” answered Kelly. “We like it here and I think I've got a new friend now.”The two girls looked at each other.

Around 30 percent of the primary schoolstudents, 60 percent of the junior high students and 80 percentof the senior high students are nearsighted. Maybe this is because students spend a lot of time reading books and using electronic products.Parents might have tried to do something to fix it, such as having their children get eye massages(按摩), take medicine or even get surgery(手术). People who offer these services or products often promise that they can reduce(缓解) or even cure(治愈) myopia.However, you will no longer see advertisements like this. The government has made a notice to ban(禁止) this kind of advertisements. The notice bans businesses from using words like “recovery(恢复)” and “myopia cure” in their advertisements. The notice says that myopia cannot be completely cured with medical technology now. As a result, these advertisements could mislead children and their parents.To reduce myopia among young people, the government made a new plan. The plan limits(限制) not only the time children play video games but also the production of new video games.Young people can prevent and control myopia by spending more time outside and less time in front of computers. People who have eyesight problems should go to a hospital and let a doctor decide what to do.()9. What's the myopia rate of the junior high students according to the passage?A．30%. B．45%. C．60%.

外研版英语九年级阅读理解试题及答案Scientists have worked for twelve years to develop what they call Green Super Rice. The “green” in Green Super Rice means environmentally friendly. “Super” means the rice can grow well in bad soil conditions and keep away insects and diseases. Researchers say it will produce at least as much grain as other rice plants but with fewer inputs.Modern rice plants produce two to three times more grain than that was possible before the 1960s. but they also require large amounts of water and chemical fertilizers. In the 1960s, scientists created crops that produced bigger harvests in what became known as the Green Revolution. It helped many people to get rid of hunger. But modern rice plants require too much water and too much use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides that can hurt the environment. And farmers may be too poor to buy these things to grow modern rice plants.The developers of Green Super Rice do not use genetic engineering. In that way they avoid the high costs as well as the problems connecting with getting permission to plant genetic crops. Anna McClung leads a rice-breeding center for the United States Agriculture Department. She praises the researchers working on Green Super Rice. But she also says that combining many different genes into one plant without genetic engineering requires a lot of plant breeding.The research is still going on. The researchers on the Green Super Rice project continue to help farmers produce more with less.( )1. When did the scientists begin to work on Green Super Rice?A. In the late 19th century.B. In the early 20th century.C. In the late 20th century.D. In the early 21st century.( )2. What does the second paragraph tell us?A. The beginning of modern ricde.B. The advantages and disadvantages of modern rice.C. The ways of creating and growing modern rice.D. Modern rice and our everyday life.( )3. Why isn’t genetic engineering used to develop Green Super Rice?A. Because doing so can reduce the costs.B. Because scientists don’t want to do so.C. Because the technology isn’t perfect.D. Because this kind of rice doesn’t need it.( )4. What does Anna McClung think of Green Super Rice?A. She thinks the researchers should use genetic engineering.B. She thinks different greens should be combined into more than one plant.C. She thinks we needn’t develop Green Super Rice.D. She thinks it is not easy to develop Green Super Rice.( )5. What is the main difference between modern rice and Green Super Rice?A. Modern rice is better for the environment.B. Green Super Rice is better for the environment.C. Modern rice is much more important than Green Super Rice.D. Green Super Rice doesn’t taste delicious.CDADB1. 请闭上眼睛无五分钟，好好休息一下。

the artist called Pozzi，works to raise attention about plastic pollution in Earth's oceans.More than 315 billion pounds of plastic litter the world's oceans today.Most of the plastic is garbage from towns and cities，as well as trash that people leave on beaches.Rainwater，winds，and high tides bring the trash into the ocean or into rivers that lead to the ocean.Once it is under the waves，the plastic begins to break up into smaller and smaller pieces.Thousands of sea animals die each year from eating plastic bags and other things.Each year，millions more pounds of plastic end up in the ocean.A recent study found that if that continues，by 2050 the total weight of plastic will be more than that of all the fish in the ocean.The Washed Ashore project is working to stop that from happening.Since 2010，WashedAshore volunteers have collected 38，000 pounds of plastic trash from more than 300 miles of beaches.They helped Pozzi create more than 60 artworks of sea creatures harmed by plastic pollution."These artworks are a powerful reminder of our personal role and global responsibility in preserving biodiversity （生物多样性）on land and in the sea，" says Dennis Kelly，director of the National Zoo.（1）What is the purpose of the artworks shown at the Smithsonian's National Zoo？A.To let people know about animals in the ocean.B.To warn people of plastic pollution in the ocean.C.To introduce one way of recycling plastic trash.D.To show Pozzi's great gift for creating artworks.（2）According to the passage，what is the source of plastic pollution in the ocean？A.Garbage from towns

card．Paying with a card is easier and safer than carrying around a lot of"real"money．根据短文内容简要回答问题．（1）Why did people start to trade？（2）When did people begin to use paper money？将短文中划线的两个句子译成汉语．（3）（4）请给短文拟一个适当的标题．（5）．15．Chinatown is the name given to an area in the middle of London．It is a large Chinese community with a lot of Chinese restaurants，supermarkets and shops．In the 1950 s，it was a poor area and everything was very cheap．At the same time，the world rice market changed and thousands of farm workers in Hong Kong lost their jobs．They began arriving in London to look for work．They found jobs in the restaurants in this area．These restaurant workers often worked 17 hours a day and had no time to learn English．As more Chinese arrived，more shops and businesses grew up．Wives came and joined their husbands and children came and joined their fathers．The community grew，and Chinatown was born．In the 1970 s and 1980 s，British﹣born Chinese started to have a better education and this brought economic（经济的）success to the area．Many families moved out of Chinatown，and there was more space for businesses．Chinatown soon became a popular place for tourists．Now everyone knows about London's Chinatown．During the Chinese New Year，the streets are seen with flags and thousands of Chinese go into the streets．For most of the year，though，Londoners and tourists go there mainly for the food in the Chinese restaurants．The best restaurants are the one where the Chinese eat．56．From the text，we know that．A．the first Chinese in Chinatown were mainly from Hong kongB．many factory workers in Hong kong lost their jobs in the 1950 sC．there were many restaurants in the middle of England in the 1950 s 57．It seemed easier for people from Hong kong to find

D．lonely，lonely【分析】这个老人独自生活，但是他没有感到孤独．【解答】答案：B．考查副词词义辨析．句意：这个老人独自生活，但是他没有感到孤独"．alone独自地；lonely孤独的．根据题干The old man lives ，but he doesn't feel ．可知live动词，后接副词alone；feel系动词，后接形容词lonely．故选B．【点评】理解各个选项的含义，根据具体内容作答．2．That Apple Watch is very beautiful，but it's too expensive．So I can't _____ it．（）A．save B．support C．offer D．afford【分析】苹果手表很漂亮，但太贵了，所以我买不起．【解答】答案：D；save保存；节省；support支持；支撑；offer提供，给予；afford 提供；买得起；担负得起；afford 指"提供，供给"，还可以特指经济能力，负担得起；offer 指"提出，提供，呈现，出价"；根据句中信息it's too expensive，推测下句句意：所以我买不起；故选：D．【点评】根据语境，细读选项，认真分析四个动词之间的异同，选择正确的答案．3．Her grandfather lives a simple life he has much money．（）A．because B．so C．though D．if【分析】虽然她的爷爷很有钱，但是他过着一种简单的生活．【解答】答案：C．根据语境以及上下文，本题考查的是连词的用法．首先明确选项中每个单词或短语的意思，A：因为；B：所以；C：虽然；D：如果；根据语境推测句意是"虽然她的爷爷很有钱，但是他过着一种简单的生活．"，在这里两个句子之间存在一个相反的让步关系，though/although/even though"虽然；尽管"，引导让步状语从句，符合句意．故选C【点评】本题主要考查连词的用法，连词在句子中主要起联系上下文的作用，他们之间的区别就是表示逻辑关系的不同，所以在解题时先要理解上下文含义，然后根据上下文逻辑关系选择合适的连词．连词的用法都比较多，语义之间还有交叉，熟记其基本应用规则，了解其区别，注意固定搭配对象，是做好此类题型的关键．4．﹣﹣﹣Some children can't afford dictionaries．﹣﹣﹣Let's donate our pocket money to them．（）A．buy B．buying C．to buy D．be bought【分析】﹣﹣一些孩子买不起字典．﹣﹣让我们把我们的零花钱捐给他们吧．【解答】答案：C．根据Some children can't afford dictionaries．可知一些孩子买不起字典．这里考查can't afford to do sth负担不起做某事．故选C．【点评】本题考查了动词不定式的用法．不定式是中考的必考考点．动词不定式在句子中可以做主语，谓语，宾语，定语，状语，宾语补足语等等，解答时应注意正确使用动词不定式．5．﹣I hear Mary has got a good job in a world's top company．﹣Yes，Her good experience helped her a lot．She once studied in one of the best colleges in China．（）A．travel B．education C．life【分析】﹣﹣我听说玛丽在一家世界顶级公司找到了工作．﹣﹣是的，她良好的教育经历帮助了许多．她曾经在中国其中的一所最好的大学学习．【解答】答案：B．travel"旅行"，education"教育"，life"生活，生命"．根据题干中的studied in one of the best colleges"在其中的一所最好的大学学习"可知，本句应该是她的良好的教育经历帮助她很大，应用education．故选B．【点评】本题考查名词词义辨析，做题时应根据题干中的关键信息并结合选项进行选择．6．He is busy _____at school，but he never forgets ______ his mom a phone call every day．（）A．working；giving B．work；giveC．working；to give D．work；to give【分析】他虽然在学校很忙，但是他从来不忘每天要给他妈妈打电话．【解答】答案：C 本题考查动词的固定搭配．be busy doing"忙于做某事"，forget to do 忘记要做某事（事情还未做），forget doing做过某事却忘记了（事情已做过）．应抓住forget to do 和forget doing的区别，照本题的题意，"但他从来不忘记每天要给妈妈打电话"，是没做之前的一种提醒，应用forget to do sth．故本题选C．【点评】这种英语题要考虑哪种情况在现实生活中更容易发生，而不是只是随着自己的想法走．有时候做题就得大众化一点．7．She ______for ten years and now she has a lovely daughter．（）A．married B．has been marriedC．got married D．has got married【分析】翻译：她已结婚十年了，并且她现在有一个可爱的女儿．【解答】答案：B．根据时间状语for ten years判断句子的时态是现在完成时，has been married 中的married是形容词"已婚的"作表语；表示是一个状态，可以和一段时间的状语搭配；has got married 是瞬息性动词，不能和一段时间的状语搭配．故选：B。

It was already 11 p. m.As Greece was the last place on my travel list, I didn't have much money left. I decided not to eat dinner. Instead, I would have a cheap breakfast the next day. Hearing this, the hostess hugged me, said something in Greek, and left. I guessed this was a good night hug and prepared to go to bed. After a while, the hostess came back with some cheese, eggs, and salad. I was surprised by her kindness.The meal was delicious. Although I tried to give the hostess money, she refused. All the worries of the day went away and I went to bed smiling. Before I left the next morning, I hid $20 and a thank-you note under my pillow(枕头) to make sure it would be too late to return it to me by the time she found it.I loved the history, culture and natural beauty of Greece. The most unforgettable part for me, however, was that a friendly Greek fed a hungry stranger.66. What happened on the night when the writer arrived in Greece?A. The writer's flight was delayed.B.
