B ecause many people are cheated on We chat easily.BHow to Talk Politely“How are you?” is a nice question. It’s a friendly way that people in the United States greet each other. But “How are you?” is also a very unusual question. It’s a question that often doesn’t have an answer. The person who asks “How are you?” hopes to hear the answer “Fine”, even if the person’s friend isn’t fine. The reason is that “How are you?” isn’t really a question and “Fine” isn’t really an answer. They are simply other ways of saying “Hello” or “Hi”.Sometimes, people don’t say what they mean either. For example, when someone asks “Do you agree?”, the other person might be thinking, “No, I disagree, I think you are wrong …”But it isn’t very polite to disagree so strongly, so the other person might say “I’m not sure.” It’s a nicer way to say that you don’t agree with someone.People also don’t say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people. For example, many talks over the phone finish when one person says “I’ve to go now.”often, the person who wants to stop gives an excuse: “Someone’s at the door.”“Something is burning on the stove.”The excuses might be real, or it might not. Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesn’t want to talk any more, but it isn’t polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and it doesn’t hurt the other person.Whether they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, or finishing a talk, people often don’t say exactly what they are thinking. It’s an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and it’s all part of the game of language.34. When a person in the United States asks “How are you”, he or she wants to hear “________”.A. How are you?B. Hello.C. I don’t know.D. Very well, thank you.35. If you have different opinions from someone, it is polite to say “_______”.A. You’re wrongB. No, I don’t agree with youC. Of course, I disagreeD. I’m not so sure if you are right36. According to the passage, when a person says “Something is burning on the stove”, it means that _______.A. he is hurting someone’s feelingsB. he is giving an excuseC. he is talking to a person at the doorD. he is going to another place37. One of the rules of the game of language is probably ________.A. “Always say what you mean”B. “Don’t disagree with people”C. “Be polite”D. “Usually say exactly what you are thinking”CPeople have dreamed of cars that drive themselves for tens of years. BMW believed cars would be highly automated(自动化的) by 2020 and driverless by 2025. Now, thanks to effortsof companies like Google, Volkwagon and Volvo, they are much closer to becoming reality than many people realize.Google said it would like to create a driverless car within ten years. As a matter of fact, they have tested kinds of cars that have automated skills. So far the cars have covered more than 300,000 miles on California’s roads without accident. They have cameras that look at their surrounding all the time. Google’s 3D map of each road has helped the cars a lot.The information shows that they are safer and smoother than driven by human. When a human was behind the wheel, Google’s cars braked(刹车). The cars’ skill is much better at keeping a safe distance from the car ahead than the skilled human drivers are.Google has been testing its cars on public roads since 2010. However, there is always a human in the driver’s seat who can take over if necessary. Google claimed that the biggest problem a totally automated car facing is law. It has not any law that supports the driverless car. California, Nevada and Florida have already changed their laws to allow tests of self-driving cars. And some laws make it clear that a car’s producer would be punished if the driverless car caused an accident.38. According to Google, who drives the self-driving cars most safely?A. Common drivers.B. The cars themselvesC. Skilled driversD. Workers in big companies.39. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Driverless cars can keep a safe distance from the car ahead better than the skilleddrivers.B. The car’s producer would be punished if the driverless car caused an accident.C. In California, Nevada and Florida driverless cars can be used on public roads bypeople.D. Google’s 3D map of each road is very useful to the driverless cars.40. You can put the sentence “By testing the cars, Google has collected much informationabout these cars.” at the beginning of _______________.A. Paragraph 2B. Paragraph 3C. Paragraph 4D. Paragraph 541. Which can be inferred(推断) from the passage?A. The dream of driverless cars will be realized by 2020 according to BMW.B. If the driverless car causes an accident, the car’s owner will get lots of money.C. By now, you may be against the law if you use the driverless car on public roads.D. The driverless cars don’t have any disadvantages or problems.DYou are made of seventy-three percent water. You have 206 bones. There are more sweat glands(汗腺) in your feet than in any other part of your body. There are about sixty muscles in your face; you use twenty of them to smile but forty to frown(皱眉). Your heart beats over 100,000 times each day. You are really amazing!The human body is a complex machine. From the day w e are born our bodies grow and change because of our environment, diet and habits. The body has many different organ(器官) systems and parts that work together to allow us to breathe, move, see, talk, and eat food all at the same time. Most of the time we are unaware(预兆) of what is happening in our bodies; usually it’s only when we get sick or feel pain that we notice.Many people do not take enough care of their complex machines. Bad habits like smoking, drinking too much alcohol(酒精), and eating junk food damage our bodies. Stress can also cause heal th problems. People who worry a lot or have busy jobs often don’t get enough sleep, or don’t eat properly. We also damage our bodies by playing sports or having accidents. In 1999, Americans made more than 102,000,000 visits to emergency rooms. The two most common reasons were for injure(伤害) and poisoning. ER patients were also treated for many other medical problems—from bad cuts and broken bones to serious illness thatneeded surgery(外科手术).As with any machine, the better you take care of it, the longer it will last. Of course, the best way to take care of your amazing machine is to eat the right food, do regular exercise, and get enough sleep. Oh, and don’t forget to smile!42. Some factors(因素) may cause health problems except ________. .A. bad habitsB. playing sports or having accidentsC. performing surgeryD. stress43. What does the word “damage” mean in Paragraph 3?A. 有益B. 损害C. 锻炼D. 影响44. Which of the following statements is Right according to the passage?A. It’s reported that less than 70% of bod y is made up of water.B. A lot of people know the importance of looking after their bodies.C. We seldom notice what is happening in our bodies until we get sick.D. Injury and bad cuts are the most common reasons in America in 1999.45. What can’t you do if you want to keep fit?A. Eat the healthy food.B. Take exercise regularly.C. Get enough sleep.D. Don’t smile often.东海县横沟中学九年级英语模拟试题答题纸班级：姓名：得分：一、单项选择（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）题号 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15答案二、完形填空 (共15小题，每小题1分，满分15分)题号16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30答案题号31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45答案四、词汇运用（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分）A、根据句意和汉语提示，在空白处填入适当的单词。

Luo Yang, 51, the father of China’s carrier jet, who devoted his whole life to the aircraft industry, is no doubt one such person.Luo was the head of production for the new J-15 fighter. On November 25, he was joining in fighter jet landing exercises for the Liaoning as usual. Shortly after the successful landing of the J-15, Luo experienced a sudden heart attack. He was soon sent to the hosp ital but the doctors couldn’t save his life.Luo was given an award for his special contribution（贡献）to the country by China Central Television on February 19. As general manager of the Shenyang Aircraft Corp, Luo didn’t use his power to improve the quality of his life. He gave up the chance to move into a new apartment. His suit was ten years old and his watch strap（带）was faded（褪色的）.All he focused on was the aircraft industry.Luo seldom had the time for a good chat with his wife and daughter. He always started work at 6 am and returned home around midnight when they were sleeping.When devoted to his work, Luo always forgot about everything else. His final days were all spent on the J-15. At one point, he felt unwell, but he didn’t leave the carrier or see a doctor.“I spent eight days on the carrier with Luo. He worked all day and night under huge pressure,” recalled Meng Jun, one of his colleagues（同事）.Luo’s death is a big loss to the country. His example, however, has inspired many people. “It’s a pity Luo Yang died when the aircraft carrier achieved success. It’s good to see more young people are entering this career now,” said Yang Yu, a commentator（评论员）for China Central Television.1．What was Luo Yang famous for?A．He and his team invented the high speed train.B．He and his team produced the new J-15 fighter successfully.C．He and his team bought the latest carrier fighter（舰载机）.D．He and his team invented a new type of mobile phone.2．According to the passage, we can infer that Luo Yang was chosen as _______________.A．one of the top ten people touching China in 2013B．one of the most successful pilots in the worldC．one of the most popular managers in 2013D．one of the most creative scientists in 20133．Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?A．Luo Yang didn’t move into a new apartment.B．Luo Yang often spent a lot of time with his wife and daughter.C．Luo Yang died of the heart attack at the age of 51.D．Luo Yang was so busy working that he didn’t have time to buy new clothes.4．What does the underlined word “loss” mean in Chinese?A．财富B．荣誉C．贡献D．损失5．The passage mainly tells us _________________.A．how Luo Yang became a general managerB．how Luo Y ang inspired young people to enter this careerC．how Luo Yang devoted his whole life to our country’s aircraft industryD．how Luo Yang worked on the LiaoningC15、There are different ways to store fish. One way to keep fish for future use is canning it. We’ll have this article describing, step by step, how to prepare dried fish.Begin with fish that are out of the water. If the fish are small, leave their heads on. Cut off the heads if the fish are longer than twenty centimeters or weigh more than one hundred fifteen grams.Now clean the freshly caught fish. Cut off the scales and cut open the stomach. Remove everything inside. Then wash the fish in clean water and fill salt into them.Next, put the fish in a container with a solution (溶液) of three hundred grams of salt and one liter of water. This will remove the blood from the meat. Keep the fish in the saltwater for about thirty minutes. After that , wash them again in clean water.Next, put the fish in a solution that has more salt in the water. The water should be salty enough so that the fish can float to the top. If the fish sink to the bottom of the container, add more salt to the water.Cover the container with a clean piece of wood. Place a heavy stone on the wood to hold it down. Leave the fish there for about six hours.After that, remove them from the saltwater and place them on a clean surface. Cover the fish with a clean piece of white cloth and let them dry.根据短文内容选择最佳答案，并将其标号填入题前括号内。

Now, read the following and see what you can do.Discover As a parent, you should play an active role in developing your children’s interests. Take them to museums, art galleries, zoos and even to theaters when they are young. Take them to take part inas many activities as possible.Show them what you’re interested in. This can help them to discover if they are interested in those things, too. Have them sit with you while you watch a sporting event, or have them help you cook dinner. If possible, take them to work with you and show them what you do. They might want to follow in your footsteps!▲ Perhaps the most important thing you can do is encourage your children. Pay attention to what they like to do or try. Encourage them to write down goals. Then, go over the list with them and help them achieve these goals. For older kids, encourage them to find a summer job that interests them. Also, encourage them to volunteer to do something.Dream Let your kids dream. Maybe they have a love of acting and see themselves as movie stars. Although this might be unlikely(不大可能发生的), always be on their side. It’s true that one’s dream changes. It doesn’t matter. Finding out what they don’t want to do is as important as finding out what they want to do.But no matter what their life goals are and how many times those goals change, always encourage them to do well in school and make time for their interests.( )35.

It’s useless for parents to find out what kids want to do.CDo you know the story how Christopher Columbus came to America by mistake? Columbus was so sure that the earth was round, not flat and that he would reach the Far East by sailing towards the west. As we know, Columbus’s journey led him to islands i n the Caribbean (加勒比海地区), not to the East Indies near Asia. However, it was some time before Columbus believed that he and his team reached the ground in a “new world” and not on an island off the coast of Japan or China.Columbus was not the only European explorer whose discoveries happened by accident. John Cabot first came to North America to find a short way that would allow British ships to reach China and India. Others made journeys for more unusual reasons. For example, the Spanish(西班牙的) explorer Juan Ponce de Leon was looking for the “fountain of youth” that would turn old men into boys according to the Indians. But he found a beautiful coast in 1513, thinking that he had discovered a large island. He named it Florida, which in Spanish means “full of flowers”.Francisco Coronado, who was also Spanish, was disappointed by what he found. He was told that seven cities in North America were filled with gold, silver and precious stones, so he went there. For years, Coronado’s team searched the mountains and deserts without success. Coronado never found treasure, but his team did find the Grand Canyon, one of the most beautiful wonders of the world.( )38. The explorers mentioned above were all from .A. AsiaB. AfricaC. EuropeD. America( )39. According to the passage, we learn that Christopher Columbus .A. reached China with his teamB. believed the earth was roundC. found gold in the new landD. named the new land Florida( )40. The underlined word “precious” means “” in Chinese.A. 雕刻的B. 宝贵的C. 坚硬的D. 纪念的( )41. This passage mainly tells us .A. where the “fountain of youth” isB. one of the most beautiful wondersC. treasure found by Francisco CoronadoD. geographical (地理的) discoveries by accidentDJim Dougherty from Washington D.C. is fighting for darker skies. He and others want to turn off the lights in the city. They believe a darker night sky is good for people’s health and our planet.The earth appears to shine from space. What astronauts see as they travel around the earth are the lights from our cities. The lights create a kind of orange cloud that keeps us from seeing the stars. Jim says the orange cloud is light pollution. “Light pollution is outdoor lighting that’s not serving the task that it’s designed for.”Jim went to a neighborhood called Capitol Hill in Washington D.C. There street lights shine in all directions. He says too much light is being produced. However, most people who live there disagree. One p erson says, “I often take a walk after dinner. Street lights make me feel safe, and I can see all around me.I know no one is going to hurt me.” Jim says he understands that the government wants to make the sidewalks safe. But he says the city has set up twice the number of street lights than necessary. And he says the lights send light into the sky where it is not needed.The good news is that in some communities, people are taking action to stop wasteful spending and protect public health. When you walk into a park or drive your car down a street, the lights come on because they have motion sensors (运动传感器). The lights turn on when there is someone coming and then turn off if they go away. The sensors can reduce lighting by 90 percent. Jim hopes more communities will use energy-saving devices (设备) like those.( )42. The street lights in Capitol Hill make people in the neighborhood .A. become lazyB. get madC. feel safeD. look ugly( )43. The sentence “the lights send light into the sky where it is not needed” means “”.A. the sky is brightB. there aren’t enough lightsC. the lights look beautifulD. the lights are not designed well( )44. How do motion sensors work according to the passage?A. By clearing the streets.B. By discovering motion.C. By collecting light.D. By remembering the way.( )45. In which column (专栏) of a newspaper would you most probably find the passage?A. TRAVEL.B. EDUCATION.C. SPORTS.D. ENVIRONMENT.四、词汇运用(共l0小题；每小题l分，满分l0分)A. 根据句意和汉语提示，在空白处填入一个适当的单词。

When I found people in trouble, I always 16 them with whatever they needed as soon as possible.At that time, I noticed that many 17 people had difficulty going to the shopping mall after heavy snow. I would spend part of a 18 Saturday knocking on my elde rly neighbor’s apartment doors to ask if they 19 anything from the mall. The mall was down a huge hill and I would bring back a couple of bags of necessities (必需品) for them every time. I liked it and it made them so 20 , too.My friends asked me 21 I was doing and after some time some of them joined in and it became a 22 as time went by. I 23 asked for money for these, but sometimes the old ladies would 24 some in my pocket without telling me. The next time I would buy some flowers or cards for them.When I went to college, many of these people would ask my mother about me, 25 my mother didn’t always know who they were. I had nev er told her about what I 26 to do for these people. And then she knew it through the 27 between these people and her. I started helping others when I was 12 and it has 28 until today. Now I’m a teacher and teaching my students the art of true 29 . At first I wrote this for my diary, but my mother said why not share it with 30 .

King Ar thur’s life.C. Polynesian culture.D. America’s southeast culture.BMy 10-year-old Donna said, “Mom, I made a new friend at school today. Can she come over tomorrow?” Donna was a shy girl and I wanted her to make some friends to bring her out of her shell.“Sure, honey, that sounds great.” I said, thinking back to my own best friend, Lillian. We lived across the street from each other in Washington Heights, New York. We met at the age of 10, too. Like my daughter, I was shy, but Lillian drew me out. She was one of the friendliest people in school, with shiny black hair and a mile-wide smile.In senior high school, Lillian went on a trip to Florida. This was the first time wehad to be away from each other for a few days. “I’ll be back soon.” she told me. But three days later, Lillian’s sister told me that she had fallen into a river and hadn’t come out any more. Soon, my family moved to New Jersey. Whenever I thought of her, tears came into my eyes.The next day Donna brought her new f riend home. “Hi, Mrs. Loggia.” the little girl said. Her hair was so shiny and black and she shot me a big smile. “My name is Laura.”My daughter’s new friend was so much like Lillian. I was still puzzled (迷惑) when Laura’s mom came to pick her up later that afternoon. I opened the door to let her in. “Judy!” she cried. “It’s me, Lillian’s sister, from Washington Heights.” Yes, my daughter’s friend looked familiar (熟悉的). She was Lillian’s niece (侄女).34. The underlined words “to bring her out of her shell” mean ______.A. to help her live happilyB. to help her become smartC. to help her become less shyD. to help her walk out of her house35. Laura looked familiar to the writer because she ______.A. was Lillian’s sisterB. was as old as her daughterC. was from Washington HeightsD. had shiny black hair and a big smile, too36. “I knew she would live in my heart forever.” is a sentence from the passage andshould be put at the end of ______.A. Paragraph 2B. Paragraph 3C. Paragraph 4D. Paragraph 537. We can infer (推断) from the passage that ______.A. Laura is outgoing (开朗的，乐于助人的)B. Laura is a shy girlC. Laura and Donna are of the same ageD. Judy moved to New Jersey because of Lillian’s deathCWe may know that there are four basic periods for human beings to pass through when you enter and live in another country. This process (变化过程) helps you deal with culture shock (文化冲击).Culture shock begins with the “honeymoon period”: This is the time when you first arrive in a place where everything about the new cu1ture is strange and exciting. You see new things, hear new sounds and language, eat new kinds of food. This period can last for quite a long time because you feel very happy.Unluckily, the second period can be more difficu1t. After you have got used to your new life, you can become very uncomfortable and begin to miss your motherland, your family, your friends, your pets and so on. Al1 the little prob1ems in life seem to be much bigger and more worrying when you face them in a foreign country. This period can be very difficult and lead to moving backwards quickly.The third period is called the “adjustment (调整) period”. This is when you begin to realize that things are not so bad in the new country. Your sense of humor usually becomes stronger and you realize you are becoming stronger by 1earning to take care of yourself in the new place. Things are still difficult, but you are now a survivor.The fourth period can be cal1ed “at ease at last”. Now you feel quite comfortable in your new place. You can deal with most problems that you have. You may still haveprob1ems with language, but you know you are strong enough to deal with them. At this time, you may feel a little uncomfortable if you go back to your motherland.38. According to the passage, culture shock usually happens when you ______.A. get married to a foreignerB. live in a big cityC. go to live in a foreign countryD. meet foreigners in your motherland39. During the first period of the process, you feel ______.A. sad and lonelyB. happy and excitedC. angry but strongD. easy but uncomfortable40. If you organize a party without difficulties and enjoyed the good time with yourbuddies in the USA, you are probably in ______.A. the lst periodB. the 2nd periodC. the 3rd periodD. the 4th period41. We can conclude from the passage that ______.A. living in another country is funB. it’s boring to live in another countryC. knowing about culture shock is hardD. it’s not easy to dea1 with culture shockDOne windy spring day, I noticed young people having fun using the wind to fly their kites. Colorful creations of different shapes and sizes filled the skies like beautiful birds flying and dancing. As the strong winds blew against the kites, a string (线) kept them in control.Instead of blowing away with the wind, they rose against it to achieve great heights. They shook and pulled, but the restraining (控制的) string and the cumbersome (笨重的) tail kept them in control, facing upward and against the wind. As the kites struggled against the string, they seemed to say, “Let me go! Let me go! I want to be free!” They rose beautifully even when they fought the restriction of the string. Finally, one of the kites succeeded in breaking loose (松散的). “Free at last,” it seemed to say. “Free to fly with the wind.”Yet freedom (自由) simply put it in the control of an unkind wind. It fell down to the ground and landed in a mass of weeds and string against a dead bush. “Free at last”, free to lie powerlessly in the dirt, to be blown helplessly along the ground, and to stop lifelessly against the first obstacle (障碍物).How much like kites we sometimes are. The Heaven gives us adversity (逆境) and rules, rules to follow from which we can grow and get strength. Some of us break away from the rules so hard that we never reach the heights we might get to. We keep part of the rules and never rise high enough to get our tails off the ground.Let us each rise to the great heights, knowing that some of the rules that we may be angry about are in fact the strong force that helps us achieve.42. Why does the writer write the first paragraph?A. Because it was the first time that he had seen young people flying kites.B. Because he wants to share his feelings in nature with the readers.C. Because he wants to tell the readers how to make beautiful kites.D. Because he wants to use readers’ similar life experience to understand article better.43. By writing the second and third paragraphs, the writer let the readers know ______.A. anyone who wants no restraints is sure to be a sad endB. what a pity it is that one kite flew down to the groundC. man with freedom can’t be like that kite which fell downD. the unkind wind is the cause of the fallen kite’s failure44. What does the underlined word “restriction” probably mean?A. controlB. freedomC. shakeD. guide45. In the writer’s opinion, ______.A. without restrictions and rules we can make endless progressB. kites are good examples to those who want to get freedomC. restrictions are necessary for us human beingsD. we don’t need an y freedom at all四、词汇(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)A）根据句意及汉语提示，写出各单词的正确形式。

Read on, and you will find out the secret.Every living thing on the earth is made up of cells(细胞). Cells grow and make new cells. Most cells are very small and we can't see them with our eyes. Different cells have different uses. Our skin cells are special ones. The cells on the outside of our skin are old dead cells. New skin cells are right under the outside. These are the living skin cells. They work for our bodies. They help protect our bodies and heal cuts.Our bodies make skin cells all the time. As the old cells fall off, new cells grow in the same place. Each person makes about 18 kg of skin cells during his or her life. Outside skin cells fit together closely with no gaps(缝隙) between them. When you cut yourself, you can harm your skin cells. A small cut will not be harmful. Your skin will quickly heal itself by making new skin cells. How do skin cells work? First, the cells near the cut get bigger and move into the gap. Next, these bigger cells meet in the middle. They form a new layer(层) of skin cells. Finally, new cells will grow until the gap disappears. In this way, your skin can grow and get well itself. How amazing the small cells are! Next time you have a cut, don't worry about it. Maybe in a few days, you will be surprised to find it healed.35.

This year’s slogan (标语) is “Breathe Easily, Sleep Well”. Its aim is to celebrate the advantage of good and healthy sleep.Sleep is like food for the brain. Enough sleep helps the body and brain grow and develop. According to the National Sleep Foundation in the US, adults need seven to nine hours of sleep every night. For students aged 10 to 17, a healthy amountis about eight to nine hours per night.But many students don’t get enough sleep because of early school start times and heavy homework. About 80 percent of middle school students don’t get enough sleep, the China Youth and Children Research Center reported. For some students, t hey want to sleep early, but they keep worrying about their schoolwork and can’t fall asleep quickly. For others, they may even have insomnia which might keep them awake all night.These sleeping problems greatly affect people’s lives. Experts have shown that not having enough sleep for teenagers leads to poor grades. Students without enough sleep cannot pay attention in class or do well in sports. Also, the lack of sleep may make them depressed (沮丧的).Luckily, with good sleep habits, it is easier to fall asleep. Some of these good habits include avoiding drinks that make people excited late in the day, going to sleep at the same time each night, and sleeping in a comfortable place that is dark, quiet, and neither too warm nor too cold.39.
