Agnes was known far and wide for her kindness. She would spend her days tending to her garden, always making sure that she had enough flowers and vegetables to share with her neighbors. Her house was never empty; it was always filled with the laughter of children who came to hear her stories, and the grateful presence of those who needed a helping hand or a warm meal.One winter, a terrible snowstorm hit the village, leaving many without food or heat. Agnes opened her home to anyone in need, sharing what little she had. Despite the harsh conditions, her generosity kept everyone’s spirits high. The storm lasted for weeks, but eventually, it passed. When the snow melted, the villagers found themselves surrounded by an abundance of wildflowers, something they had never seen before. It was as if nature itself was thanking Agnes for her kindness.Years later, when Agnes passed away, the villagers decided to honor her memory by planting a garden in the center of the village. They called it “Agnes’ Garden,” and every year on the anniversary of her death, they gathered there to celebrate her life and the power of kindness.Questions:1.What was Agnes known for in her village?Answer: Agnes was known for her kindness, which manifested in her generous acts towards her neighbors, including sharing from her garden and opening her home during the winter storm.2.How did Agnes help her community during the snowstorm?Answer: During the snowstorm, Agnes opened her home to anyone in need, sharing her food and providing warmth, keeping the villagers’ spirits high despite the ha rsh conditions.3.What did the villagers find after the snowstorm had passed?Answer: After the snowstorm, the villagers found their surroundings covered in an abundance of wildflowers, which they believed was nature’s way of thanking Agnes for her kindness.4.How did the villagers decide to honor Agnes after her passing?Answer: The villagers honored Agnes by planting a garden in the center of the village and naming it “Agnes’ Garden.” They gathered there annually to celebrate her life and the impact of her kindness.5.What lesson does this story convey about kindness?Answer: This story conveys that kindness can have a profound and lasting impact on a community, leading to a cycle of generosity and gratitude, as demonstrated by Agnes and the subsequent actions of the villagers.Each question is worth 4 points.五、作文（30分）Let’s title this section as follows:Part V: Writing (Total 30 points)Instructions: For this part, you are required to write a composition entitled “My Ideal Vacation”.

The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated this trend as schools around the world were forced to close their physical doors and move lessons online. This sudden change has revealed the potential of digital tools in education, allowing students to access learning materials anytime and anywhere.One of the key advantages of digital learning is its flexibility. Students can learn at their own pace, revisiting difficult concepts or moving ahead when they are ready. This personalized approach caters to individual learning styles and needs, which traditional classroom settings may not always accommodate.Another benefit is the vast array of resources available online. From interactive videos and simulations to virtual field trips and online quizzes, digital learning offers a rich variety of content that can engage students more deeply than textbooks alone.However, there are also challenges associated with digital learning. Not all students have equal access to technology or reliable internet connections, which can exacerbate existing educational inequalities. Additionally, the lack of face-to-face interaction can be isolating for some learners and may lead to a decrease in motivation and engagement.Despite these challenges, the future of education seems to be moving increasingly toward a blended model that combines the best of both worlds—traditional classroominstruction and digital learning. By leveraging the strengths of each, educators can create a more inclusive, engaging, and effective learning environment for students.Questions:1.What event accelerated the shift to digital learning platforms?Answer: The COVID-19 pandemic.2.List two benefits of digital learning mentioned in the passage.Answer: Flexibility and access to a vast array of resources.3.How does digital learning offer a personalized approach to education?Answer: Students can learn at their own pace and revisit difficult concepts or move ahead when they are ready.4.What are two challenges associated with digital learning?Answer: Unequal access to technology and internet, and the potential for decreased motivation and engagement due to lack of face-to-face interaction.5.Describe the future of education according to the passage.Answer: A blended model combining traditional classroom instruction and digital learning.五、作文（30分）English Mock Examination PaperSection V: WritingTotal Marks: 30Instructions:For this part of the examination, you are required to write a composition in no less than 250 words. Your writing should be clear, coherent, and grammatically correct. You will be assessed on your ability to express ideas, use vocabulary appropriately, and structure your text effectively.Topic: A Day in the Life of a Teenage VolunteerYou have been volunteering at a local animal shelter for the past three months. Write about one day that stands out as particularly memorable. Describe what you did, who you met, and how the experience made you feel. Discuss what you learned from the experience and how it has influenced your perspective on life.Time Allowed: 45 minutesNow, let’s provide a model answer for this writing prompt:Model Answer:Title: The Day I Saved a LifeIt was an ordinary Saturday morning when I arrived at the Happy Paws Animal Shelter, where I volunteer every weekend. The sun was just beginning to peek over the horizon, casting a golden glow over the sleepy town. As I unlocked the door, the familiar sounds of barking dogs and meowing cats filled my ears. Little did I know that this day would be anything but ordinary.As I began my routine of feeding and cleaning, I noticed a new arrival—a small, injured kitten huddled in a corner of its cage. Its fur was matted, and one eye was swollen shut. I gently picked it up, feeling its tiny heart beating rapidly against my palm. I knew I had to act quickly to save its life.I rushed the kitten to the vet, where it received immediate attention. The veterinarian assured me that with proper care, the kitten would recover. I spent the rest of the day by its side, feeding it milk from a dropper and keeping it warm with my jacket. By evening, thekitten’s eye had begun to open, revealing a pair of the most beautiful green eyes I had ever seen.That day taught me the importance of compassion and the impact that a single act of kindness can have. Seeing the kitten’s recovery filled me with a sense of accomplishment and joy that I had never felt before. It reminded me that every life matters, no matter how small or seemingly insignificant.Since then, my perspective on life has changed. I’ve come to appreciate the value of every living being and the power we have to make a difference in their lives. Volunteering at the shelter has not only given me a sense of purpose but also shown me that there is beauty in the world, even in the smallest of moments.The day I saved the kitten’s life will forever remain etched in my memory, a testament to the power of love and the strength of the human spirit.This model answer should serve as a good example for students to follow in terms of structure, language, and content.The model answer provided above should give you an idea of the kind of composition expected for the writing section of the mock exam. Remember, the key to scoring well in this section is to write clearly, coherently, and with proper grammar while effectively expressing your ideas and structuring the text.If you have any further requests or need additional examples or guidance, please don’t hesitate to ask!。

It opens doors to new worlds, exposes us to different cultures, and enriches our imagination. As we delve into the pages of a book, we embark on a journey of discovery, learning, and sometimes even self-reflection. In the following article, we explore the various benefits of reading, particularly for junior high school students in their first semester of Grade 9.Firstly, reading improves academic performance. Studies have shown that students who read regularly perform better in subjects like language arts, mathematics, and science. This is because reading enhances vocabulary, comprehension skills, and critical thinking abilities, all of which are essential for academic success.Secondly, reading fosters empathy and emotional intelligence. By stepping into the shoes of characters in books, students learn to understand and appreciate diverse perspectives. This not only broadens their minds but also cultivates empathy, allowing them to better connect with others.Moreover, reading reduces stress and promotes relaxation. In today’s fast-paced world, students often feel overwhelmed with academic pressure and social demands. A good book can provide an escape from reality, allowing the mind to unwind and recharge.Lastly, reading inspires creativity and imagination. The worlds created byauthors are boundless, and they inspire readers to think outside the box and imagine possibilities beyond their immediate surroundings. This can lead to new ideas, innovative solutions, and a lifelong love for learning. Questions:1.What is the main purpose of the passage?A)To entertain readers with interesting stories.B)To promote the benefits of reading for junior high school students.C)To criticize the lack of reading among students.D)To explain the history of reading.Answer: BExplanation: The passage explicitly states its purpose in the first paragraph by exploring the various benefits of reading, particularly for junior high school students in their first semester of Grade 9.2.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT a benefit of reading?A)Improved academic performance.B)Increased stress levels.C)Cultivated empathy.D)Inspired creativity.Answer: BExplanation: The passage mentions several benefits of reading, including improved academic performance (A), cultivated empathy (C), and inspired creativity (D). However, it does not state that reading increases stress levels (B). In fact, it says the opposite, that reading reduces stress and promotes relaxation.3.How does reading help in developing empathy and emotional intelligence?A)By providing practical advice on how to interact with others.B)By allowing students to experience different perspectives through characters inbooks.C)By teaching students to memorize complex emotional terms.D)By encouraging students to engage in debates and arguments.Answer: BExplanation: The passage states that reading fosters empathy and emotionalintelligence by stepping into the shoes of characters in books, thereby learning tounderstand and appreciate diverse perspectives (B). This allows students to developempathy and better connect with others. The other options do not accurately describe how reading helps in developing empathy and emotional intelligence.三、完型填空（15分）Cloze Test (For Grade 9, First Semester, Foreign Language Teaching and Research Press Edition)Passage:It was a cold winter morning.

She was very kind and helped me 2 the bird in a small box with soft cotton inside. Mrs. Lee suggested that I take the bird to the local wildlife rescue center after school. I agreed and spent the rest of the day thinking about the little bird’s 3.After school, I rushed to the rescue center and handed over the bird.
