Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题)(14分)“Dinning out”, or “eating out” are phrases people use in Britain when they eat in a restaurant or pub. Eating out is more popular in Britain today than it has ever been. In 2006, for the first time ever, British people spent more eating out in restaurants and pubs than cooking for themselves. It seems that many British people are becoming increasingly interested in how good their food tastes, and also how healthy it is.However, eating out can also be expensive. Restaurants are more expensive than pubs, though many pubs serve very good, simple food. As British people do not dine out every night of the week, eating in a restaurant is often seen as a special occasion(场合). When going on a first date and wanting to make a good impression him or her, or if celebrating an anniversary or a birthday, then many people like to go to a restaurant to eat. People often eat in a restaurant before going to the cinema or the theater.Naturally, restaurants are greatly different in quality and price. However, almost all British cities have many kinds of food and culinary(烹饪的)styles to choose from including traditional British food, and all from the very cheap to the very expensive---French, Italian, Indian, Chinese, Greek, Thai, Japan and many, many more. In fact, when asked which their favorite food is, more British people say an Indian curry than any other dish!As well as dining in a restaurant, when people are too tired to cook after work they often get a “take-away”. This means that they order from a take-away restaurant by phone, and then go to collect it and take it home to eat. Many take-away restaurants also deliver it to your house (if you are especially tired, or lazy!). And you can normally find a take-away restaurant for almost any cuisine, the most popular are pizza (Italian), Indian and Chinese ---and all you have to do is to open the door, pay and eat!88. British people enjoy cooking for themselves, don't they?89. How is the food served by many pubs?90. When do British people choose to eat in a restaurant?91. Which dish do most of the British people like best?92. How can British people get a "take-away"?93. Do you like eating out or getting a "take-away"? Please give at least two reasons to explain your choice.虹口区初三英语第一学期期末质量抽查试卷D. Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题)(14分)Whether from the novels, TV show or movies, everyone knows Sherlock Holmes. His stories are among the most read material in the world, behind only the Bible(圣经)and the dictionary.The famous detective stories were written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Though he studied medicine and managed to practise it, writing became his pleasure in life and made him famous all over the world. In addition to his gift in writing detective stories, he had a medical background that enabled him to be of service during wars and journeys to both Antarctica and Africa.During his university years, Doyle found his studies dull but loved watching his unusual teachers.

And so Doyle’s famous Holmes was born a confident detective with a keen eye but an indifferent(冷漠的)attitude.Doyle began to publish detective stories of Sherlock Holmes in The Strand magazine in 1891 and achieved great success. These exciting and enjoyable adventures attracted the British middle class who lined up to buy magazines and read them. Doyle, however, felt Holmes was blocking his desire to write historical novels and killed him off in 1893. Angry letters and protest failed to bring Holmes back until 8 years later.Holmes continued being popular through new novels, BBC’s TV shows and the Robert Downey Jr. films. Some fans are even crazy about Sherlock Holmes. A group of fans called Sherlockians claim(宣称)that Sherlock Holmes was a real person and his stories are historical record. As they work to prove their claims and as books and films about Holmes continue to fill our homes, our favourite detective certainly lives on.(299 words)88.

Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题)(14分)When I was in high school, I worked part-time helping Dad sell fruits and vegetables at a market. One day, as I was preparing the fruits, a little boy came by with his mom and sister. He was about eight years old, and the girl, six or seven. They were looking at the fruits in front of me.I heard the kids say to their mom in French.“They’re good!”I knew it was French because I can speak and understand it.Then I noticed how the mom was picking the fruits. At first I thought she was really looking at the fruits because she was facing them. But then I noticed how much she had to feel and smell each one as she picked them out. And she often asked her son if it looked okay, but looked way above where his face was. Putting what I saw together, I was sure she was blind.Both of the kids continued to help their mom pick out the fruits. The son made sure the fruits were not obviously bad, and the daughter handed them to her mom. The woman then felt each one and smiled, and the daughter would put them into their basket. The kids were smiling while helping their mom pick the fruits out.Their smile and gentle manner moved me in a way that never happened before. It was so beautiful to see such young kids so willingly help. Most kids that age would be picking outcandies or toys in a store for themselves, instead of helping their mom pick out fruits as the two kids did.It was great to see the moment with my own eyes, but not so great because I didn’t tell the mom how beautiful her children were in their language. This is what I feel sorry to this day.88. Where did the writer help his dad sell fruits and vegetables?89. What did the woman and her kids come to the market to buy?90. How was the woman picking the fruits?91. Why did the woman have to feel and smell each one as she picked them out?92. Were the kids glad to help their mom pick the fruits out?93.

Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题)(14分)Wassily Kandinsky was a Russian painter. He developed a way of painting called abstract art. This art uses colours, shapes and lines. He had many ideas about colour. He believed that colours communicated certain qualities and that the colours that surround us have a powerful influence on us. Most of us have a favourite colour and this favourite colour makes us feel good, too.Kandinsky thought that yellow was a warm exciting colour that could make us feel happy. In comparison, blue was a peaceful colour that could make a person feel more relaxed. The colourgreen brings peace and stillness and makes us feel close to nature. White he thought was a colour associated with harmony, silence and cleanliness, while black was linked to improving confidence. Orange is a healthy colour with a fun side to it. Schools use bright colours to encourage children to take part in activity and learning.Age influence our choice of favourite colours. Children like the colour yellow. As children become adults, yellow becomes less popular as a favourite colour. Older people seem to like blues and purples more than reds and oranges. This kind of knowledge about colours can be powerful in advertising and website design. It can have effect on the success of these with their readers. If you are designing a website for children, the colour yellow would probably make it more successful. If you are designing a website for older people, the use of blues and purples would make it more successful than the use of yellow. It would seem that the power of colour is interesting as a subject.Colours seem to influence more than we could imagine in our lives.

In China, red represents good luck, South Africa, it is the colour associated with death. In Western cultures, black is the colour associated with death, while in Japan, white is the color of death. Purple is the colour of death in Thailand, but in the West, it is the colour of royalty, wealth and luxury.88.Who developed a way of painting called abstract art?89.Did Wassily Kandinsky believe the colours that surround us have a powerful influence on us?90.According to Kandinsky, if you want to be relaxed, what colour would you choose?91.Why do advertising and website design use different colours for different readers?92.How can a website attract older people more according to the passage?93.“Red is often thought of as the colour of danger, love and passion in the West.” Which one of the three ideas do you agree with in China?

If so, you’re not alone.Many people use apps(手机软件) like MeituXiuxiu to edit photos before posting them on social media. Some teenagers are even having plastic surgery(整容) at an early age. Zeng, a senior2 student from Chengdu, had a double eyelid surgery done this summer. She and many of her classmates believe bigger eyes look more beautiful.As teenagers’ bodies grow and change, they become aware of the small est flaw(缺陷) in their looks. They are very worried about it. This can affect their health.According to Huxiu News, over 60 percent of girls refuse to take part in some daily activities such as going to school, because they feel bad about their looks. As much as 31 percent of teenagers do not want to speak up in class because they worry that others will notice their looks.One of the main causes is advertising, TV shows and social media. Pictures of “perfect” faces and bodies are everywhere. They suggest that having large eyes, pale skin and skinny bodies is the only way to be beautiful. Magazines give tips about how to lose weight “in days”. Advertisements suggest that you should whiten your skin using certain products. And TV shows often make fun of overweight characters. Seeing all these things can make people believe that they should change their bodies.So what should we do? According to Nancy Etcoff of the Harvard Medical School, “We need to help young people in many ways. These ways can include educating students about body confidence in school, as well as encouraging parents to talk to their kids about this topic. After all, beauty comes in all shapes and sizes,” Etcoff said.88. Do many teenagers have plastic surgery at an early age?89. How do teenagers probably feel when they are aware of the smallest flaw in their looks?90. How many girls refuse to take part in some daily activities because of the bad feeling about their looks?91.

Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题)(14分)Chinese VS American SchoolsThere are many differences between the Chinese and American school systems.Firstly, the subjects that students learn in Chinese schools are the same across China. Almost all classes in the country—whether they are in math, science or English—will use similar books and materials. The education goals for the country are set by the government. Students don’t have many choices of subjects they can take. However, in the USA, the 50 states all have slightlydifferent school systems. Students take basic classes such as math, science and English, but they may also choose classes like computer science, music art and business.Secondly, the exam system is part of Chinese tradition. For hundreds of years, the Chinese have used exams to decide which people were the best to work in the government. Today, the exam system is based to decide which university students should attend and what they will study.

They celebrate the holiday with the lighting of the menorah(多连灯烛台), traditional foods, games and gifts. Hanukkan is a Jewish festival. It falls on the 25th day of the Jewish month of Kislev(犹太教历), which is usually sometime in December. The festival celebrates the time, over 2,000 years ago, when the Jewish people fought against an emperor who would not let them follow their own traditions and religion(宗教). When the Jewish people won back their temple in Jerusalem(耶路撒冷), they found there was only enough holy(神圣的) oil to keep the sacred light (神圣之灯)burning for one day. However, to their surprise, this small amount of oil kept the light burning for eight days and nights, until the people had time to make more oil.At the center of the Hanukkah celebrations is a candlestick (called a Menorah) that holds nine candles. On the first night of Hanukkah the first candle is lit, and each day this candle is used to light another candle, until on the eighth day, the last day, all the candles are lit. During Hanukkah, people go to the synagogue (犹太教堂) to pray and to remember the miracle (奇迹) of the holy oil. Hanukkah is a time for family and friends to come together. People exchange gifts and greeting cards, and children go to parties. Parents often give their children money at Hanukkah. Potato cakes, called latkes, are a traditional Hanukkah food. Hanukah is a relatively minor holiday in the Jewish year, however, the Hanukkah story tells of Jewish culture surviving in a non-Jewish world.69.

Choose the words or expressions to complete the passage(选择最恰当的单词或词语,完成短文)(12 分)“Have you ever been in a fight?” I have frequently asked many adults this question. Often, I have been given the same answer: “Of course, when I was in school.” This common answer seems to suggest that most boys will fight _____75____ during their school years. But as we leave school, we cease(停止) to use our fits to solve problems.It‟s possible that when we are young, we lack the n egotiation(协商,谈判) skills to manage a ______76_____ without using violence. On top of that (除此之外), when we enter school we are thrown into an environment where we are constantly competing and trying to ___77____ourselves. We care what other people think about and a young man will often try to show a tough guy image(硬汉形象).Once we leave school, we are supposed to be equipped with all ___78____ problem solving skills. We need to be able to deal with an aggressive(挑衅的) situation without hurting others. If an adult starts a fight, it shows a major lack of education. However, there are times when a man needs to be a man. Raising a fist seems socially acceptable, if it‟s done to defend yourself or someone who can‟t defend themselves. For example, a school yard b ully(校园以强凌弱者) gets no respect from his schoolmates. They may fear him but don‟t ever mistake that for respect. The person who gains respect is one who stands ___79_____ the bully to protect the weaker guys or girls.Mr. Smith, a former official from local Education Committee said in a talk that boys should know how to fight when necessary. “Boys who do not fight can ___80____ achieve any success in the future,” he said.

It is believed that the first use of corn was popping. The English settlers w____81_ came to America in the 16th and 17th centuries, learned about popcorn from the Native Americans. Native Americans brought a bag of popped corn to the first Thanksgiving. A common way to eat popcorn at that time was to hold an o_____82_ ear(穗) on a stick over the fire, then chew the popped corn off it. Natives throughout America also made popcorn soup and popcorn beer.Popcorn was very popular in the United States from the late 19th century through the middle of the 20th century. It was a ___83__ in parks, from street vendors(摊贩), and near the theaters. Street sellers used to follow crowds around, pushing steam-powered popcorn machines(蒸汽爆米花机) through parks and expositions(博览会).During the Depression(美国大萧条时期), popcorn 5 to 10 cents a bag was one of the few luxuries poor families could a ____84___.

Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题)The Panama Canal-----Connecting OceansA short canal saves ships thousand of milesThe Panama Canal( 巴拿马运河) is an artificial 51-mile waterway in Panama that connects the Atlantic Ocean with the Pacific Ocean. The idea for a Panama canal datesback to the discovery of the Isthmus of Panama(巴拿马地峡) by Spanish explorer V ascoDe Balboa in 1513. He discovered how narrow it was. Only 80.5 kilometers of land separated the Atlantic from the Pacific! The Spanish surveyed the area in hopes of building a canal. But the local governor(地方长官) decided it was impossible.Fast-forward to 1869, Ferdinand De Lesseps had completed the 163-km-longSuez Canal(苏伊士运河), a waterway linking Europe and Asia. France asked him torepeat his success at Panama. He agreed to have a try. When digging started in 1881, Ferdinand De Lesseps thought building a canal across Panama would be easy. But hedidn‟t realize that digging in a jungle(丛林) would be so dangerous. Ferdinand De Lesseps and his team abandoned (放弃) their project after thousands of worker diedfrom diseases caused by mosquitoes(蚊子). American President Theodore Rooseveltquickly took over where the French crew had left off. He bought the canal property(运河的所有权) and sent a team of workers to finish the project. Led by John Stevens, the American team got rid of the mosquitoes. This effort helped the team of nearly 40,000 workers to stay healthy and productive(富有成效的). The team used powerful steam shovels(蒸汽挖土机) to make a path for the canal. But even with the help of such large equipment, the work progressed slowly. Finally, after nearly 10 years of non-stop digging, the canal successfully opened in 1914. The story didn‟t make the headlines, though. The public was focused on World War I. Therefore the canal wasn‟t dedicated(举行落成典礼) until July 12, 1920. Since the canal first opened, more than960,000 ships have traveled through it. The Panama Canal has become an important linkin global shipping. A journey that used to take moths now take two weeks.88.How wide was the Isthmus of Panama which separated the Atlantic from the Pacific?___________________________________________________________________.89.Did the local governor agree to build a canal?___________________________________________________________________ .90.Who bought the Panama Canal property?___________________________________________________________________ .91.What did the team use to make a path for the canal?___________________________________________________________________ .92.How long did it take people to complete the work on Panama Canal?___________________________________________________________________ .93.Why is the Panama Canal an important link in global shipping?___________________________________________________________________ .VII.

You will often notice that there are three or four—especially boys who cannot sits s_____81____. They have trouble paying attention to the teacher for longer than a few minutes, and they seem to forget things the teachers tells them. What is the manner with them? Many doctors think they need medicine, so they give the children a drug c_____82____ Ritalin(利他林). It is supposed to help them settle down and pay better attention. It works, but it is also dangerous. Ritalin has some bad side effects, and it can even kill children who take too much. Because of the serious side effects of Ritalin, many people think it is not good for children.Ritalin seems to affect both a child’s mind and body. The drug does help children calm down and focus, but some scientists claim(声称) that Ritalin decreases the flow of blood to the b____83_____. This effects a child’s thinking and memory and makes it more difficult to learn. Scientists also think that the drug might l_____84____ a child’s ability to grow and an cause trouble sleeping. Another problem is that children can take too much of the drug. Some children like the way the drug makes t_____85____ feel, so they take more than they should. They know this is wrong, but they cannot stop, much the same as people who cannot stop smoking. A third problem is that doctors do not know if the drug is really safe or not. Doctors do not know what happens to children who take this drug for a long time. They do not know if these children show side effects after they grow up. Ritalin might help when children are young but are there bad effects l____86_____ in life? Because nobody knows for sure, some scientists say that Ritalin should not be used.Today, some doctors and teachers say that there are better ways than drugs to help children with attention problems. One good idea is to give children better food and make sure they get more rest. Another way to help children with attention problems is to find teachers who have special training with a_____87____ children. Such teachers know how to help these children learn. Another idea is for parents and t eachers to simply be patient. Most children’s attention will improve naturally as they get older. Parents and teachers just have to give these children time to develop.崇明区初三英语第一学期期末质量抽查试卷C.

synagogue(犹太教堂)to pray and to remember the miracle(奇迹)of the holy oil.Hanukkah is a time for family and friends to come together.People exchange gifts and greeting cards,and children go to
