Most sharks are about two meters long and live in the oceans.A shark can smell something in the water, for example, the blood of animals. That helps them find their food. Sharks mainly eat fish, other sharks and plants in the ocean.Most sharks bite (咬) people by mistake. They think a person is a large sea animal. When the sun goes down or comes up, sharks are looking for food. So at these times people shouldn't go swimming in the ocean.Today people kill sharks for food and their skin.

They’re in their shells ---sleeping .Hot sun will dry out a snail’s body. So at the least sign of hot sun, a snail draws its body into its shell and closes the op ening with a thin cover. Then it goes to sleep. A snail will die in a heavy rain. So whenever it rains, it goes inside its shell house and goes to sleep. A snail can sleep for as long as it needs to. It can take a short sleep. Or it can sleep for days at a time. And it spends all the winter months in its shell, asleep.In spring the snail wakes up. Its body, about three inches long, comes out of from the shell. When hungry, the snail looks for food. It can’t see very well. Its eyes, at the ends of the top feelers are very weak. But its sense of smell is very strong. It helps the snail to the new greens. Then the snail’s little mouth goes to work.A snail’s mouth is no longer than the point of a pin(针). Yet it has 256,000 teeth! The teeth are so small that you can’t see them. But they do their work.. If you put a snail in a hard paper box, it will eat its way out. And if a snail wears out its teeth, it will grow new ones.Mostly, a snail looks for food at night .But on cloudy days it eats in the daytime. It eats all day long.

But her school doesn’t have a girls’ team. So for the past four years, Kayla has played on the boys’ team at St. John the Apostle School in Clark, New Jersey. That hadn’t been a problem until earlier this y ear. The team was told that it either had to ask Kayla and another girl to leave the team or end its season early.The team, called the Chargers, plays in a league (联赛) that didn’t allow mixed teams after fourth grade. When the league leader found out that there were girls in the team, he gave the coaches (教练) bad news. The team could keep playing but only without the girls.Keisha Martel, Kayla’s mom, is one of the Chargers’ coaches. She asked the team to take a vote (投票), knowing it would be difficult for the kids to choose.“They all said, ‘It doesn’t matter. We’re a team and we’re sticking together (团结一致),’” said Keisha.The Chargers wasn’t allowed to play for a few weeks, but then the league reversed its decision. The team, girls included, played the rest of the season. They even made it to the championship (锦标赛) game — and won!Kayla has some advice for other teams. “Make sure you are family —you have each other’s back,” she says.1．How many girls played for the Chargers?A．Two. B．Three. C．Four. D．Five.2．What was the bad news the Chargers’ coaches got?A．Some of them had to leave their jobs.B．The team had to keep playing without the girls.C．The team couldn’t play in the league anymore.D．There would be no basketball team at the school.3．What does Kayla’s mom do?A．She is the league leader.B．She is a basketball coach.C．She is a teacher at Kayla’s school.D．She is the headmaster of Kayla’s school.4．The underlined word “reversed” is closest in meaning to “_______”.A．forgot B．supported C．changed D．made5．What’s Kayla’s advice for other teams?A．They should practice more.B．Team members should support each other.C．They should not be afraid of making mistakes.D．Team members and coaches should trust each other.F18、How can we improve our l ife? Many people think that they have to accept whatever life throws at them. They’ll say, “this is my destiny (命运). I cannot change it.”Certainly not! You don’t have to suffer too much. Your destiny depends on yourself, not on any other factors.I know someone who says she just accepts what life gives her because she has done everything she can to improve it. Guess what her lifestyle is? She wakes up in the morning, goes to work, comes back home, relaxes, chats with people, watches TV, then goes to sleep. Next day, the same routine cycle follows. Huh! Is this what she calls “doing her best”? She believes she has tried her best. But in fact she hasn’t.Remember that you get what you pay. You just don’t sit around and wait for a million dollars to fall from the sky. You have to get off the couch, get your eyes off the TV screen, get your hands off the phone. Don’t expect your luck to change unless you do something about it. If something goes wrong, don’t just regard it as a little failure, but use it as feedb ack (反馈). Learn your lesson, make the most of the situation, and do something to solve the problem. It’s not enough to think positively (积极地), you also have to act positively.If someone’s life is in the trouble, do you just hope that things will____fine? Of course not! You get to do anything you can to save the person. So it is with your own life. It is not enough to hope for the best, but you have to do your best. In other words, don’t just stand (or sit) there, do something to improve your life.1．The wr iter’s attitude towards destiny is that ________.A．we can change it B．we can’t depend on ourselvesC．we must accept it D．we have to suffer it2．According to the passage, what should you do if something goes wrong?A．Regard it as a little failure. B．Get your hands off your phone.C．Sit around and wait for luck. D．Do something to solve the problem.3．The underlined word “turn out” in the passage means ________.A．翻转B．关闭C．变得D．清空4．From the passage, we know ________.A．we only need to hope for the best in our life.B．we can get what we pay if we think positively.C．the woman has tried her best to improve her life.D．maybe our luck will change if we do something about the life5．What would be the best title for this passage?A．Understand Yourself B．Improve Your LifeC．Believe in Yourself D．Accept Your LifeⅤ.书面表达19、假如你是刘梅，升入九年级后，你的学习和生活都发生了很大变化。

This ll-year-old cat works in exchange for cat food at Wakayama Electric Railway’s Kishi station. She has her own office, and there’s even a Tama train ! When Tama was “hired (雇用)” in 2007, the station was losing money, but today, thanks to Tama, it’s a popular tourist attraction.In the 1950s, US Navy (海军) officials got a great idea. Why not train dolphins to do some special work humans can’t do? Today, dolphins are trained to find underwater mines (水雷) so that the Navy officials can make the mines disabled before they explode (爆炸). Dolphins are well fit for the job for many reasons, but the best of all, they’re too small to set off the mines so they’re never in danger.Most squirrels are happy to collect nuts, and run after each other up and down trees. Not Twiggy! She prefers water skiing. Twiggy comes from a team of water-skiing squirrels, whose owner trained them to ski behind a toy boat. Today, Twiggy travels around the Unite d States putting on shows and even appearing on TV. It’s all in a day’s work for this squirrel!1．How long has Tama been the stationmaster?A．For 5 years.

Whichever service activity you choose, you have the right to make a difference and create a real change in the community!J oin the Volunteer Service Center today! V olunteers are the greatest people in the world. Let’s work together to make the world a better place.Our summer holiday volunteer jobs are open to all Americans.You don’t need any special skills to join and there are no age limits (限制). With Biosphere Expedition(生物圈探险), you can be a wildlife and environmental volunteer for anywhere from two weeks to two months. You’ll work with local scientists, and the leaders from Biosphere Expedition will be by your side.We need students at the age of 16 and up who study at school and want to give them chances to use their talents, skills and knowledge to help the little kids.

It can guide us to where we want to go. It can play games. And now, AI can do even more things.Researchers from Microsoft have created the first machine translation system that can translate news articles from Chinese to English, Business Standard reported.According to Microsoft's official website, researchers tested the system by asking it to translate hundreds of sentences taken from news stories. Then, language experts compared the results to two translations that were done by humans. The experts concluded that the system's translations were as good as the human translations.Machine translation is always challenging. This is partly because different words can be used to express the same meaning. It can be hard to say which word is more “correct”.Experts used several methods to improve the system's translation abilities. “Much of our research is really inspired (得到启发) by how we humans do things,” lead researcher L iu Tieyan said.One method is called dual learning. In this method, the system translates every sentence from Chinese to English, as well as translates the sentences back from English into Chinese. This way, the system can improve itself and learn from its own mistakes. This is similar to what humans do to make sure their translations are accurate (准确的).Another method makes use of deliberation networks. The researchers taught the system to repeat the process of translating the same sentence over and over. Gradually, the system can improve the quality of its translations. This is similar to how people revise their own writing by going through it again and again.1．Microsoft created a system that can _____.A．make phone calls B．give people directionsC．play games with people D．translate news articles2．What did the experts say about the system's translations?A．They were not accurate.B．They were as good as human translations.C．They were better than human translations.D．It's hard to tell whether the translations were correct.3．Dual learning trains the system to translate _____.A．more quickly B．different sentencesC．more accurately D．the same sentence repeatedly4．What is the main idea of the story?A．What artificial intelligence can do for us.B．How sentences are translated from Chinese to English.C．How the machine translation system was developed.D．Why Microsoft created a machine translation system.D16、Have you ever taken photos by using mobile phones with selfie sticks(自拍杆)? This new invention is a small, useful and cleverly-designed tool.However, a pair of US artists from New Mexico, Arie Snee and Justin Crowe believe they have invented a better one and they call it “selfie arm”. For better or worse, they have taken the world by storm. It makes those p eople in the pictures seem to be holding hands with a loved one.The pair say it offers a far better experience than using a straight stick. The selfie arm makes people feel they are not alone when they take photos. It seems that they are together with their friends. They think their invention solves the main problem that the selfie stick has —people look alone while they are taking pictures of themselves with great interests. The product, at present, just an art project and a model, conveniently provides y ou a welcoming arm. And better yet in the future, it’ll talk in a friendly way and never get angry or upset. The pair say they are fascinated by these new ideas.The “selfie arm” is made of fiberglass(玻璃纤维). It is lightweight and easy-taking.The project that they work on shows the growing selfie stick phenomenon(现象) directly and the increasing need for narcissism(自恋) and Internet agreement.1．The selfie arm is _____________________.A．the latest mobile phone B．lightweight and easy-takingC．cleverly-designed but useless D．a useful digital camera2．“The pair say it offers a far better experience than using a straight stick.” Here “it” refers to _____.A．a selfie stick B．a selfie arm C．a hand D．a loved one3．Aric Snee and Justin Crowe come from _______________.A．Mexico B．New Zealand C．America D．Not mentioned4．___________ will make people feel they are alone while taking photos.A．The storm B．The selfie arm C．The pair D．The selfie stick5．The passage is mainly talking about _________________.A．a new kind of fiberglassB．a pair of artists who are interested in taking photosC．an invention that can reduce lonelinessD．a cleverly-designed tool for taking photos with mobile phoneE17、综合阅读，阅读下面短文，根据短文内容，从所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项．CCTV News May 32，2025，SundaySu Bingtian broke r ecord at Saturday’s IAFFDiamond League （国际田联钻石赛）in Eugene，United States．He finished third in 9″99，behindAmericans Tyson Gay in 9″88 and Mike Rodgersin 9″2．Liu Xiang said，“You are great!You became the firstAsian\|born person in the men’s 200 me ters．”CCTV News June 2，2025，TuesdayIt’s reported that the first two deaths from anoutbreak of MERS （中东呼吸综合症）on June 2stin South Koren．So far，the number of newconfirmed（感染）cases is 25 in total．CCTV News June 4，2025，ThursdayThe big ship Dongfang Star（东方之星）with 458people sank in Yangtze River after being caught ina strong cyclone at 22：28，June 2．So far，onlyfourteen people were saved，however，the rescue（搜救）are still continuing．270．When will the No﹣Smoking Law be carried out in Beijing？B A．May 32，2025 B．June 2，2025C．June 2，2025 D．June 4，2025272．Who became the first Asian born person in the men’s 200 meters？C A．Tyson Gay．B．Mike Rodgers．C．Su Bingtian．D．Liu Xiang．272．How many people died from the outbreak of MERS in South Korea on June 2st？BA．2 B．2C．24 D．25273．What caused the big ship to sink on Yangtze River？DA．Hitting another ship．B．Carrying too many people．C．The wrong driving．D．A sudden strong cyclone．F18、Laptop computers are popular all over the world. People use them on trains and airplanes, in airports and hotels. These laptops connect people to their workplace. In the United States today, laptops also connect students to their classrooms. Westlake College in Virginia will start a laptop computer program that allows students to do schoolwork anywhere they want. Within five years, each of the 1500 students at the college will receive a laptop. The laptops are part of a ＄10 million computer program at Westlake, a 110-year-old college. The students with laptops will also have access(入口) to the Internet. Besides, they will be able to use e-mail to "speak" with their teachers, their classmates, and their families. However, the most important part of the laptop program is that students will be able to use computers without going to computer labs. They can work with it at home, in a fast-food restaurant or under the trees-anywhere at all!Because of the many changes in computer technology, laptop use in higher education, such as colleges and universities, is workable(可行的). As laptops become more powerful, they become more similar to desktop computers. Besides, the portable(手提的) computers can connect students to not only the Internet, but also libraries and other resources. State higher-education officials are studying how laptops can help students. State officials are also testing laptop programs at other universities, too.At Westlake College, more than 60 percent of the staff use computers. The laptops will allow all teachers to use computers in their lessons. As one Westlake teacher said, "Here we are in the middle of Virginia and we're giving students a window on the world. They can see everything and do everything."1．The main purpose of the laptop program is to give each student a laptop to _____.A．use for their schoolwork B．access the InternetC．work at home D．connect them to libraries2．Why is the word "speak" in the second paragraph in quotation marks (引号)?A．They don't really talk. B．They use the computer language.C．Laptops have speakers. D．None of the above reasons is correct.3．Which of the following is true about Westlake College?A．All teachers use computers. B．1500 students have laptops.C．It is an old college in America. D．Students there can do everything.4．What can we infer(推断) from the passage?A．The program is successful B．The program is not workable.C．The program is too expensive. D．We don't know the result yet.Ⅴ.书面表达19、假如你是李华，是一名初三学生，2018年被评为“校园运动之星”（the School Sports Star of 2018）。
