译林牛津英语9年级中考分类提升之阅读填空系列AIf you visit the animal shelter(收容所)in Saunas, California, you'll see huge signs that have a picture of a dog and a cat on them. These signs are put in front of the shelter to catch people's attention. The signs make people interested in the shelter and encourage them to visit it and maybe even take a cat or a dog into their homes.Each year, the Salinas shelter accepts thousands of dogs and cats. The animals are either lost ones or are left by people who can't take care of them. Of all the animals, some of them are taken into new homes. Some others are moved to other shelters. And, unluckily, some cannot be saved because they are too sick or are thought to be dangerous.Animal shelters provide food, medicine, and safe places for animals. But they are not the best homes. The animals stay in small cage(笼子). The people who work at shelters do their best to care for the animals, but the animals do not always get the attention or exercise they need.To prevent animals from becoming homeless, pet owners should take good care of their pets. Most pet doctors also suggest people make sure their pets have a special surgery(外科手术). It prevents animals from having more babies. And that reduces the number of homeless animals.1.How many dogs and cats does the Saunas shelter accept every year?\2.Why are the shelters not the best homes for the animals according to the passage?3.If you find a homeless cat in the street, will you take it home? Why or why not?〖答案〗1. thousands of dogs and cats2.because they do not always get the attention or exercise they need3.No , because I don’t like petsBWhen I was first in junior high,I knew no one.Most students talked only to people they knew So they left me out of their conversations(对话).I would come home crying because 1 was lonely.Mother asked me what the worst time was and I said that it was at lunchtime.She said,“You are not the only lonely person.There are others that are alone.Tomorrow 1 want youto look around the lunchroom to see if you see other people eating by themselves.1 want you to go to one of them and ask if you can join him or her.”Well,the next day,I did look around and asked the first person who was already sitting alone.The young girl was very happy.I shared my story with the girl and the next day we met for lunch and found some other people who were alone and also knew no one.This began a very interesting approach(靠近) to life.The lessons that I learned from that experience have stayed with me all my life.I have few problems approaching new people at a gathering(聚会).I learned that I am not alone.I could reach out to others.Most people are just like you and me.We all want to be noticed,to get a little attention,and to have someone be interested in listening to us.If you want to have a friend,you must be a friend !1.What is the writer’s opinion about friends?2.What people around the lunchroom were also lonely according to the writer’s mother?3.What did the writer do after talking with the young girl?〖答案〗1.If you want to have a friend ,you must be a friend!2.

Those who were considered in the “high-use” group experienced more stress during their spare time than the other group.So what can we do in order to really take advantage of our spare time? We have collected the following activities that also take a few hours to complete, but best part of all, you’ll improve your health in the process(过程).Whether you’re at home or on holiday, it’s important to disconnect from the Wi-Fi. Walking in nature can do good to your health. As a professional(职业的)traveler. Samantha Brown put it in a recent passage, “ I put my map in my back pocket, put down my phones and take a good, long walk. Just walkaround.”Go to bed earlier. What can help improve your mood? Extra sleep, naturally. Getting the right amount of sleep is very important to our health and studies show that we don’t get enough of it.Read a book. And let yourself get lost in a good story. Research shows that reading can reduce stress, keep your brain sharp and can even help you sleep better. Everyone should spend at least 30 minutes reading every day.Putting pen to paper is a good exercise. Try writing down your thoughts. Writing has a lot of health advantages. Besides, writing down your thoughts may even help clear your mind.1. How many activities does the writer advise us to do to improve our health?2. Why did the Kent State University do the study?3.

But he would come back help to harvest rice every year.One autumn, he promised to help our neighbor, who lost his arms in a traffic accident in 1999, to harvest his rice. After Father harvested our town, his little rice picker broke. What’s worse, he had to return to work the next day because his partner was ill in hospital. It meant that fath er wouldn’t be back in a few days. It now seemed impossible to help out the neighbor.Father told us that h e wouldn’t let the neighbor’s rice rot(糜烂) in the field. He decided to harvest it by hand without a machine. “If tonight’s weather is clear, I think I can do it.” added my father. In fact, he was rather tired after a day’s harvest work.After dinner, Father had a short rest and made his way to the field. A full moon was glowing (发光) in the sky and the weather was cold but clear. He spent the whole night keeping his word.I would never forget the image(画面):Father was cutting rice in the light of the harvest moon. Behind him, row after row of rice stocks(秸秆) stood at attention, showing respect for a man who kept his word.1 What happened to the neighbor in 1999?2 How was the writer’s father?3 Will you keep your promise if you promise somebody something? Why or why not?〖答案〗1.He lost his arms in a traffic accident.2.He was a man who kept his word.3. 省略ELast spring I was walking in a park. In front of me there was a mum and her 3-year-old daughter. The little girl was holding on to a string, which had a balloon at theother end.All of a sudden, a sharp gust (一阵风) of wind took the balloon from the little girl. I thought she would scream and cry.But, no! As the little girl turned to watch her balloon rise to the sky, she cheerfully shouted out, “Wow!”I didn’t realize it at that moment. But that li ttle girl taught me something.Later that day, I received a phone call from a person with news of a sudden problem. I almost replied with “Oh no, what should we do?” But remembering that little girl, I found m yself saying: “Wow, that is interesting! How ca n I help you?”One thing is for sure —life is always going to put us off balance with things we don’t expect. But how we act to them is our choice. We can choose to be discouraged or interested.No matter what the situation is, a “Wow!” will always beat “Oh, no.”So next time you meet one of life’s unexpected gusts, remember that little girl and make it a “Wow!” experience. It always works.1. Where was the little girl?2. How did the little girl feel when her balloon was blown away?3. Will you have an active mood when unexpected trouble comes up? Why or why not?〖答案〗1. She was in a park. 2. She felt cheerful. 3. 略。

It is a place where people from all walks of life converge, each with their own unique story. Below is a glimpse into a typical day in London.Text:At the crack of dawn, the first rays of sunlight filter through the windows of the city’s oldest pub, the Rose and Crown. The pub has been a landmark in the heart of London for over 800 years. Inside, a group of regulars gather for their morning pint, sharing news and catching up on the latest happenings in the neighborhood.As the sun rises higher in the sky, the streets begin to fill with the sounds of city life. Commuters stream into the Tube stations, eager to begin their day. The London Underground, affectionately known as “the Tube,” is the backbone of the city’s transportation system, carrying millions of passengers each day.By mid-morning, the financial district of the city is in full swing. Workers pour into the glass towers of the City of London, the historic center of the British financial services sector. The air is filled with the hum of computers and the clack of keyboards as traders and accountants go about their busy routines.Lunchtime brings a brief respite from the hustle and bustle. Many workers head to the nearby restaurants and cafes to grab a bite to eat. The streets are lined with diverse food vendors offering everything from traditional English fish and chips to exotic dishes from around the world.After lunch, the afternoon sun casts a golden hue over the city. The West End, London’s entertainment district, comes alive with the sounds of theater, music, and dance. Theatres like the Royal National Theatre and the London Palladium host world-class performances, drawing audiences from far and wide.As the evening approaches, the city’s pace slows slightly. Families stroll through Hyde Park, enjoying the cool evening air and the colorful lights of the Kensington Gardens.

The other options do not convey the correct meaning or structure.2、The movie,___________(1)___________I watched last night, was so thrilling that I couldn’t sleep for ho urs.A. whichB. thatC. whomD. whoseAnswer: AExplanation: The correct answer is “which” because it is used to refer back to a noun (the movie) that is introduced earlier in the sentence. “That” and “whom” are not appropriate in this context as they do not refer to nouns. “Whose” would imply ownership, which is not the case here.3、The children (play)________in the garden when it started to rain heavily.Answer: were playingExplanation: The sentence requires the past continuous tense because it describes an action that was in progress at the time another event (the start of heavy rain) occurred. The past continuous is formed using “was/were” + the -ing form of the verb. Since “children” is plural, we use “were playing.”4、If I (be)________you, I would take the job offer without hesitation.Answer: wereExplanation: This sentence is an example of the second conditional used to talk about hypothetical situations in the present or future. In the if-clause, we use the simple past form of the verb “to be,” which is “were” regardless of the subject. The main clause then uses “would” + base form of the verb to express what would happen as a result of the condition.5、In the modern world, social media has become an indispensable part of our lives, allowing us to __________1__________ with friends and family, share our experiences, and stay informed about current events. However, it also brings about many challenges, such as privacy issues and cyberbullying.Answer: communicateExpl anation: The correct verb to complete the sentence is “communicate,” which means to exchange information, ideas, or feelings with someone. It fits the context of the sentence, which discusses the use of social media to connect with others.6、The __________2__________ of the novel lies in its ability to explore complex human emotions and relationships, making it a compelling read for readers of all ages.Answer: appealExplanation: The correct noun to complete the sentence is “appeal,” which refers to the at tractiveness or charm of something. In this context, the “appeal” of the novel is its ability to engage and captivate readers due to its exploration of deep emotions and relationships.7、Question: After the heavy rain, a rainbow appeared in the sky,_______(make) the whole city look more beautiful.Answer: makingExplanation: The correct form here is a present participle “making” because it follows a comma and describes an action that happens as a result of the main clause without requiring an additional verb. It shows that the appearance of the rainbow caused the city to look more beautiful.8、Question: The teacher asked us to write a composition,_______(include) at least three descriptive paragraphs.Answer: includingExplanation: Here, “including” is used as a participle that acts almost like a preposition. It means that the composition should contain or consist of at least three descriptive paragraphs, without needing another verb because it follows directly from the main verb “to write.”9.In the 9time, the internet has become an essential part of our daily lives.A. lastB. recentC. pastD. futureAnswer: BExplanation: The correct answer is “recent” because it indicates a period that has just passed but is still current, which fits the context of the internet becoming an essential part of daily lives.10.The 10she studied for the exam was the 11she achieved excellent results.A. more, moreB. more, muchC. most, mostD. most, muchAnswer: AExplanation: The correct answer is “more, more” because “the more… the more…” is a common structure used to express a cause-and-effect relationship. It suggests that the more she studied, the more excellent her results were. Thesecond “more” is used to emphasize the degree of the effect.五、简答题(本大题有5小题,每小题2分,共10分)1、What are some common ways to improve your vocabulary in a new language?

Depending on their strength, hurricanes are given five different categories.America and Japan have two of the best hurricane warning systems.

Every year, millions of tourists go there to enjoy the wonderful scenery. And in recent years, more and more people would like to visit it. Why? Because the little island country is in trouble. If global warming continues, scientists say, the country will go down into the ocean within 100 years. That means Maldives might disappear(消失).Maldives is the lowest country on the Earth----its highest point is only 2.4m above sea level. Because of greenhouse gas emissions(排放),sea level will rise between 9cm and 88cm by 2100. If the scientists are correct, most of Maldives will be covered by water in years.The Maldivian government has realized the terrible results from global warming to the country and is trying to ask for help from the world. The president even has a plan to buy a new land and move his country and people to the new place.The fate(命运) of the island is in the hands of the people in the world.

Most of the people who saw his heart were amazed at the beauty of his heart. It had no little flaw(瑕疵).Suddenly, an old man appeared and said, “Oh, my son, your heart is not as beautiful as mine.”The old man showed his heart to the young man. It was beating strongly, but full of scars(疤痕). It had places where pieces had been removed and other pieces put in. But they didn’t fit quite right, and there were gaps and rough(崎岖不平的) edges.

Solar, wind, and hydroelectric power have become more prevalent, thanks to advancements in technology and increased public awareness. This article explores the evolution of renewable energy and its impact on the global energy landscape.One of the earliest forms of renewable energy was hydroelectric power, which was first harnessed in the late 19th century. Hydroelectric power relies on the energy of flowing water, typically from a dam, to generate electricity. It has been a reliable and efficient source of energy, but its implementation has often faced environmental concerns due to the disruption of natural waterways.Solar energy, on the other hand, has seen a dramatic increase in popularity and efficiency in recent decades. The development of photovoltaic (PV) cells has allowed for the conversion of sunlight directly into electricity. This technology has become more affordable and widespread, with solar panels now commonly seen on rooftops across the globe. However, the large-scale deployment of solar farms has raised questions about their impact on local ecosystems.Wind energy has also gained significant traction, particularly in coastal and windy regions. Wind turbines convert kinetic energy from wind into electrical power. While they have a relatively low environmental impact compared to fossil fuels, the visual impact of wind turbines and the noise they producehave sometimes led to opposition from local communities.Despite these challenges, the global trend is clear: renewable energy is becoming increasingly integral to the energy mix. Governments and private companies alike are investing heavily in renewable energy projects, and the cost of solar and wind energy has decreased dramatically, making them more competitive with traditional sources.Questions:1.What is the primary purpose of the article?A) To discuss the benefits of renewable energy.B) To criticize the environmental impact of renewable energy.C) To compare the efficiency of different renewable energy sources.D) To argue for the immediate abandonment of fossil fuels.2.According to the passage, which of the following is a challenge faced by the implementation of hydroelectric power?A) The high cost of photovoltaic cells.B) The disruption of natural waterways.C) The visual impact of wind turbines.D) The noise produced by solar panels.3.Which statement about the cost of renewable energy is supported by the passage?A) Renewable energy is becoming less affordable over time.B) The cost of renewable energy is increasing, making it less competitive.C) The cost of solar and wind energy has decreased significantly.D) The cost of renewable energy is unchanged, making it competitive.Answers:1.A) To discuss the benefits of renewable energy.2.B) The disruption of natural waterways.3.C) The cost of solar and wind energy has decreased significantly.三、完型填空(15分)Title: The Importance of ReadingReading is a vital skill that opens up a world of knowledge and imagination. It not only enriches our minds but also (1)_______our lives in countless ways. In today’s fast-paced society, where information is readily available at our fingertips, the art of reading has become even more (2) _______.Books are like time machines, transporting us to different eras and cultures.

It challenges our thinking, broadens our horizons, and helps us develop empathy and critical thinking skills.
