Although it might sound a little far from you, living in a “smart” city like this could happen sooner than you think.Great changes have taken place in towns that we have lived in for centuries, while completely new cities are being built. One such place is the cit y of Songdo. Every home there will have a “telepresence” system (远程遥控系统)—allowing users to control the heating and looks, take part in video meetings, and receive education, healthcare and government services. Around the city, escalators (自动扶梯) will only move when someone is on them, and offices and schools will all be connected to the system.The great mind behind Songdo is from the company Cisco. In fact, technology companies around the world such as IBM, Siemens and Microsoft are already in the business.About 75% of the world's population will live in cities by 2050, so cities will need to be more modern to deal with the coming problems. “Making cities smarter is one way out, and I think this will in turn make cities greener,” said Dan Hill, the head of a research company.（1）According to the text, living in a "smart" city _______.A . will cost lots of moneyB . will be far from youC . will soon become trueD . is completely impossible（2）Paragraph 2 is mainly about _______.A . a city of the futureB . a meeting in SongdoC . a plan to build a houseD . a report on public health（3）Dan Hill thinks that making cities smarter is one way to _______.A . drive people out of citiesB . control the world's populationC . develop his own companyD . solve the cities' coming problems（4）Which of the following might be the best title for the text?A .

With the help of a dog, a monkey and a bird, Momotaro beat them and went back home safely.Pinocchio A kind old man created（创造）Pinocchio from wood and treated （对待）him as his son.Instead of doing right things like going to school, Pinocchio liked hanging out.

As part of the falconry show, rooks had been trained to pick up roses and bring them to a princess, so in the 2000s, Gaborit raised and trained two rooks to do the same with rubbish.The rooks started to pick up rubbish for the first time over the weekend, and they'll be working four days a week under close supervision （监视） not for the birds, but to make sure the humans don't deliberately （故意地）drop rubbish to watch the birds clean it up.The purpose of the rooks is to educate the people, to open their minds to think: OK, the birds are able to do something that we are much more able to do than them, so we should do this by ourselves," park president Nicolas de Villiers told NPR. "It's a funny way to show the people that you cannot throw the papers everywhere."（1）What are the rooks like according to the first paragraph?A . Stupid.B . Clever.C . Kind.D . Cute（2）How are the rooks trained to pick up rubbish?A . By picking up the roses for people・B . By working for four days a week.C . By cleaning a special container.D . By rewarding their hard work.（3）Why do the rooks work under supervision?A . Because they are not clever enough at first.B . Because people like dropping litter everywhere.C . Because they may be not hard-working at all.D . Because people may have fun with their abilities.（4）What's the main purpose of this passage?A . Let people know that corvids are a clever animal.B . Educate people to learn from the great man, Gobarit.C . Make people know they can do more on rubbish.D . Hope people can sort out the rubbish in any place.5. （4分）阅读短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

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_____57_____ 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 theb_____58_____. This effects a child’s thinking and memory and makes it mo re difficult to learn. Scientists also think that the drug might l_____59_____ a child’s ability to grow and can cause trouble sleeping. Another problem is that children can take too much of the drug. Some children like the way the drug makes t_____60_____ 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 effectsafter they grow up. Ritalin might help when children are young but are there bad effectsl_____61_____ 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_____62_____ children. Such teachers know how to help these children learn. Another idea is for parents and teachers to simply be patient. Most children’s attention will impr ove naturally as they get older. Parents and teachers just have to give these children time to develop.上海市宝山区2017-2018学年九年级第一学年期末英语试题真题C.

Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words （在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使内容通顺，每空格限填一词，首字母已给）（14分）At times we all get angry when we are driving. It might be because we are stuck in a traffic jam or stuck behind a very s 81 driver. It might be because we think another driver has done something very stupid and dangerous. Whatever the reason, it seems that getting angry in a car is something which happens more and more often and there is now a special term f 82 it: 'road rage'(路怒症). Some experts even think that road rage is a kind of mental illness! How can we recognize this 'illness' of road rage? There are two kinds of road rage: aggressive (攻击性的) driving and aggressive reactions to the way other people are driving. Aggressive driving can take different f 83 : Driving much faster than the speed limit.●Increasing your speed very quickly.●Driving very close behind the car in front and sounding the horn (喇叭) or flashing theheadlights.●Changing lanes very suddenly and b 84 another car.●Moving into a parking space where another car is trying to park.There are also different reactions to the way other people are driving. These include:●Making rude signs at people.●Shouting at people and threatening them.●Deliberately (蓄意地) driving into another person's car.●Hitting somebody.●Using a weapon such as a baseball bat, or even a gun or a knife.Road rage is c 85 not a joke. There have been incidents (事件) of road rage which have led to serious injuries and even murder. Experts thank that one reason for road rage as that films show a lot of examples of fast and aggressive driving such as car chases where this kind of driving seems to be positive. Experts also think that the punishments for dangerous driving are not serious e 86 . Experience shows that driving problems can be controlled, but it takes a long time. In the UK in the last 30 years, the po lice have been quite successful in r 87 the number of people who drink and drive. They are now working to stop people using mobile phones when they are driving. Let's hope they can have the same success with road rage.上海市宝山区2015-2016学年九年级第一学年期末英语试题真题C. Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words（在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使内容通顺，每空格限填一词，首字母已给）（14 分）Recently the unmanned aircraft which are called drones (无人驾驶飞机) have come into use for a number of business purposes.Basically, a drone is a flying robot. The aircraft (飞行器) may ber emotely controlled or can fly a 81 through flight programs intheir systems. The little planes used to be very costly. In the past,they were mostly used in the military (军事). But as they haved82 in price more people have begun to use them. Rescue workers and fanners are among the new users.A company in France is using drones to help farmers examine their crops and limit the amount of fertilizer (肥料) they use. The fast development of computer technology, image sensing devices (图像感应设备), satellite navigation (卫星导航) and cell phones has led to lower-priced drones. Researchers and developers have learned how to build smaller and less-costly drones. Moviemakers are using drones to film from the sky. Historians (历史学家) use them when they explore a 83 . buildings. Rescue workers use them to look for people. And now farmers are using them to m 84 their crops.Romain Faroux is a French businessman who starts companies. His father was a farmer. He believed drones could help fanners. He helped create a company that developed a small drone that could be controlled by people on the g85 . They called it “Agridrone (农业无人机).” It uses a special “optical sensor (光学感应器)” to examine crops.The technology used is similar to that used by smartphones except it has wings. A computer program directs the drone to fly over the crops. The sensor on the drone records four different-colored “bands” of sunlight (太阳光带) that are reflected off (反射) the crops.Jean-Baptiste Bruggeman is a farmer. He says the drone flies over his crops at different time of the season. He says this provides a lot of information about his crops. The drone pictures show him the exact amount of fertilizer the crops need. It also shows exactly where the fertilizer is needed.Romain Faroux says farmers use information g 86 by the Agridrone to place fertilizer only in areas where it was needed. This saves money and reduces pollution. Before they used the drones, farmers would put the same amount of fertilizer everywhere. Drones also save timebecause farmers can examine u 87 to three hectares (公顷) in about a minute.。

上海版2019-2020学年度九年级上学期英语期末考试试卷A卷一、阅读理解 (共4题；共15分)1. （4分）阅读理解Everyone knows that exercise is important. It makes your heart and body strong. But you need to know the following: Get your body ready!Before you do any exercise, make sure to warm up for at least five minutes. During warming up you should stretch(伸展)all parts of your body. Exercise enough, but not too much.It's best to exercise twice each week. Thirty minutes each time is enough. Try all kinds of things until you find one, two or even three sports that feel right for you.Exercise at fitness centres.There are a lot of equipments(设备) at fitness centres. The equipments will help exercise your arms, legs and other parts of your body to make you fit. Some people buy equipments for their homes. But it is very expensive. Stop playing when you are hurt!If you get hurt when you are doing exercise, don't play again until you are well. Don't get thirsty!Drink a lot when you are playing sports because it is easy to become thirsty.（1）From the above, we know that these are ____.A . signsB . proposals(倡议书)C . suggestionsD . notices（2）You'd better exercise____ according to this passage.A . about two hours a weekB . twice a dayC . twice a weekD . every day（3）The words "fitness centres" in the text mean "____" in Chinese.A . 商务中心B . 健身中心C . 购物中心D . 医疗中心（4）If you are doing sports, you should____.A . have a good rest before exerciseB . exercise twice a monthC . stop playing when you are hurtD . drink little for sport（5）Which of the following is WRONG according to the passage?A . Warm up all parts of our body before exercise.B . Do enough exercise but not too much.C . Exercise can make us healthy.D . Everyone should buy equipments for their homes.2. （4分）阅读理解It's all about patience(耐性) really.Chinese walkers, who usually walk the red light together, may be surprised at recent research which showed that they are more patient than people abroad.A study looked at more than 1,800 walkers at three busy Shanghai crossings(交叉路口). It found that an average Chinese walker ran out of patience at red lights after 90 seconds. But there's an interesting fact: the average German's endurance ability(耐性) was around 60 seconds while the British only 45 seconds and the American 40 seconds.People will take no notice of the red lights when the waiting time exceeds(超过) their patience time. "A lot of Chinese traffic lights are car-friendly instead of walker-friendly," said Ni Ying, who led the research team. As there are more and more car users in the city, city planners are giving them more convenience on the roads, according to her.The study also found that at some crossings, walkers waited longer than 150 seconds, and at other crossings the wait could be as long as 200 seconds. However, most red lights abroad do not exceed 120 seconds.The study suggested that planners should think about the walking pace(步幅) of people from different age groups, especially middle-aged people and seniors, in order to make the roads more walker-friendly. But the city's traffic police do not agree. They argue that the roads are built not just for the walkers, but also for cars. "To give more time for walkers would cut down the time for cars," a traffic policeman said. "On a busy traffic day, it can make traffic worse."（1）Who are the most patient among the people from four different countries?A . The Chinese.B . The German.C . The British.D . The American（2）According to the passage, Chinese walkers walk the red light because________.A . they are not afraid of the traffic policeB . they are not friendly to car usersC . there is often something wrong with the red lightsD . the waiting time at the crossings is too long（3）What does "them" in Paragraph 4 refer to?A . City planners.B . Walkers.C . Car users.D . The research team.（4）How could roads become more friendly to walkers according to the study?A . By taking away the traffic lights.B . By making the roads wider and look nicer.C . By changing the waiting time according to people's walking pace.D . By stopping the middle-aged people from walking across the roads.（5）Which of the following will the traffic police agree with?A . It's right to give more time to walkers.B . Reducing time for car users will make traffic worse.C . We should encourage people to walk instead of driving.D . We should build more roads to meet the need of different people.3. （4分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中选出最佳选项。

It is the end of the semester and your teacher gives you your report card. You look at it and your heart stops because you realize that your parents are going to be very angry. This is the classic case of a bad report card! There is nothing you can do to change the past. So, what do you do now?A disappointing report card is something that almost all students will experience at least once in their lives. Grades are how most schools evaluate（评价）students and they are pretty important. The problem is that we do not always get good grades we (or our parents) want. After a bad report card, it is important to figure out what to do next.The first thing to do is talk to your teacher. Find out how your grades were calculated. Was the problem a bad test, lack of participation（参与）in class, or a failure to complete homework? Next, if the problem is something you can solve on your won (such as not doing your homework), make a promise to change your behaviour! However, if you have been studying hard and still got a bad grade, you probably need some extra help with your classes. Talk to your teacher and explain your situation. He or she will tell you where you can receive the extra help you need. Then, make a detailed plan of how you will improve your grades. Write down the plan and have it ready when you take to your parents. That’s good way to make your parents less angry.While all parents want their children to get good grades, most understand that not every report card will be perfect. The important thing is that you show your parents you have a plan to improve your grades for next time. Always remember, many of the world’s most successful people failed many times before they became successful. They learn ed from their failures, and you should too!44.

It has stopped raining now!”“Very well, Tom,” replied his mother, “only, be careful, and don’t stay away long!”So, Tom ran off down the field to the river which flowed past his father’s farm in far north Queensland in Australia. It had been raining for ten days. Sometimes the rain fell fast and hard, then light showers would follow. The ground was all wet.“All hot cou ntries such as where we live,” Tom’s father had once told him, “may flood at times. The sun has great power in the tropics to draw up the water from the sea. You know how the vapour rises into the air. The higher the temperature of the air, the greater the amount of moisture(水分) the air can hold. When the air cools, the vapour becomes clouds, or if it is near the earth’s surface, as mist(薄雾). When the air cools gradually(逐渐地), the rain drops are small and the rain is light. However, when the vapour drops s uddenly in temperature, the drops are large and the rain is heavy.”“In some tropical countries where the sun is always at work on large bodies of water, a very large amount of vapour collects in the air, and it may take days, or even weeks, to form rain drops and fall.It may then rain for days continually. When this happens, after two or three days, the water falls does not have the time to soak(浸泡) through the soil or be carried off in the streams; so it gathers on the surface, and then we have a flood.”When Tom got to the river, where the crossing was, he found the water rising rapidly.

However, he can play very difficult musical pieces by musicians such as Chopin and Beethoven just a few minutes after he hears them. He learns a piece of music by listening to it in parts.

The koala is found in open eucalypt (桉树) forests in south-east Queensland. Even if it is called koala bear, this animal has nothing to do with t he actual bear. Koalas have thick fur and large cars.Their broad, flat nose makes them look cute, similar to teddy bears. In fact koalas aren’t cute. They have sharp teeth and very sharp claws (爪)! Koalas are marsupials (有袋类). This means the mother carries her baby in a pocket while it develops, similar to a kangaroo. The baby koala lives in its mother’s pocket for the first six months of its life.The name “koala” comes from a native Australian word that means “no drink”. The koalas get almost all their water from the eucalyptus leaves they eat. That’s where th ey get their food too.Koalas eat only eucalyptus leaves. The eucalyptus trees are where the koalas live, it’s also where they sleep. Koalas sleep about nineteen hours a day!Why do they sleep so much? Some people think it’s because they’re lazy. But koalas aren’t lazy. They sleep so much because there isn’t much nutrition (营养) in eucalyptus leaves. Koalas store hardly any fat, so they must save their energy. One way to do this is to move slowly and sleep a lot. After a day of sleeping they like to move around and eat just after sunset. They live alone most of the time. Koalas are very protective of their trees. If a koala sees another koala eating in its favorite tree, it might tell the other koala to leave by “barking” at it. Koalas do “talk” to each other.
