长宁区初三英语第一学期期末质量抽查试卷D.Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答问题):(12分)Exam time is the most stressful(压力重的) period of the year. You have worked all school term on your classes and now it’s the time to prove what you have learned. With so much at stake (处于成败关头), it is easy to get stressed about your exams. However, with the right amount of hard work and focus you can pass your tests with ease.When I was in school, I used to get very stressed over my exams. So did my friends. Some people stopped eating and others ate too much! Some gave up and others burned themselves out! The most important thing to remember when studying is not to feel frightened! Take the middle path -- stay calm, eat healthy and get a rest. Pushing yourself too hard is just as dangerous as not studying enough. A tired, overworked brain is just as useless as a lazy, empty one!So, what should you do ?Arrange a time each day for study and a time for relaxation .You may have less time to relax than usual, but you still need to let your brain rest for a few moments. Get plenty of sleep .If you are tired, information will not stick in our memory. Finally eat healthy foods that fuel your body and mind.It does no good to think too much about your exams. Some students may think that the rest of their life depends on them .That’s not true. Instead, just view the exams as another difficulty you will overcome. You have overcome all kinds of difficulties in you life so far. With the right amount of work and focus, you will pass your exams with flying colours! High school is right around the corner!93. What is the most stressful period of the year?94. How can we pass the tests with ease?95. What did the writer’s friends do when they got stressed over their lessons?96. Which is more dangerous, pushing ourselves too hard or not studying enough?97. Why should we get enough sleep during exam time?98. What will you do to deal with exam stress next time?宝山区初三英语第一学期期末质量抽查试卷D)Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题):(12分)I’ve always wanted to try rock climbing, but never had time or money for it. But I’ve discovereda way to experience the thrill(兴奋,紧张) of climbing rock. Indoor climbing is an easy and excitingway to get a taste of rock climbing. And it is also much cheaper and safer! Indoor climbers don’t climb on real rock, but on a plastic wall. You can probably find a climbing wall near you. Many gyms,schools and camps have one.You can climb in doors at any time of the year, no matter how the whether is. It is usually not expensive. Most gyms provide the equipment you need. The convenience of indoor climbing is one reason why it has become so popular. But the main reason people climb is for rush(刺激感) they get. When I stand at the roof of the wall and look up, I’m always scared, but once I start climbing, fear changes to determination. With my heart pounding(心剧烈跳动), I reach the top and look down. I can’t stop grinning. I did it!Indoor climbing is a great workout(锻炼). Climbing uses muscles(肌肉)that are hard to exercise, especially those in the shoulders, arms, chest and back. Many people say climbing makes exercise fun. Most gyms have several climbing walls with various degrees of difficulty. The easier ones are like climbing a ladder. The difficult ones bulge out(凸出)in places so that climbers must sometimes climb parallel(平行的)with the floor.Although gym climbing is easier and safer than real rock climbing, you should still be careful. Always climb with a partner. As you climb, your partner pulls you climbing rope through something called a belay device(绳索控制器). The belay catches you if you slip. But make sure your partner knows how to use this equipment. And if you are a first-time climber, get some instruction before you begin.93. Is indoor climbing cheaper and safer than real rock climbing?94. On what do indoor climbers climb?95. What are the reasons that make the indoor climbing so popular?96. Who should always be with you when you climb?97. What does your partner do as you climb?98. Which do you think sounds more fun, rock climbing or indoor climbing? Why?崇明县初三英语第一学期期末质量抽查试卷D.

They are not as polite, hard-working or clever as my generation. I will give you two examples.Last Friday, I got on the underground at 9.15 a.m. It was very busy so there were no free seats. There were some teenagers sitting on the seats nearest me. I don’t know why they were not at school. They were talking loudly and laughing. It was difficult to read my newspaper with all the noise. A heavily pregnant(怀孕的)woman and her daughter got on at the next stop, with lots of shopping bags. I expected the teenagers to let them sit down. They saw the woman but did nothing.I had to ask them to give her a seat. They reluctantly(勉强地)did so but gave me a rude look. I gotoff at the next stop and was glad that the teenagers didn’t follow me.Last Saturday, I had dinner with my friend’s family. I was looking forward to meeting his children, who I hadn’t seen for ten years. During dinner, we started talking about world po litics. Itsoon became clear that they didn’t know much. They couldn’t tell me the name of the King ofSpain or the President of Italy. All they knew about was the internet and which singers were themost beautiful. In my day, students knew the kings, queens and presidents of every country in Europe.I worry about the future of Germany. How could these young people become responsible workers and parents? They sit around Mcdonald’s after school instead of going to the library like Idid at their age. Maybe they have too much money. Perhaps another reader can give us an idea about what to do with this ‘lost generation’.Franz V ogtsHamburg93. Who was the letter sent to?It was sent to ____________ of a newspaper in Germany.94.

At just three years old, Niu Niu asked hisfather to teach him to play, too."I gave Niu Niu some sheet music(活动乐谱)and helped him find the eight notes(琴键)when he first played the piano. To my surprise, he played nearly 80 percent correct," said the father. He used to think that 3 years old is too young an age to learn piano, but Niu Niu changed his mind. He continued to allow Niu Niu to watch his teaching of other students and gave him more sheet music to play.Playing for funZhang started teaching Niu Niu standard piano lessons when he was four. Unlike many otherpiano teachers, Zhang didn’t insist that Niu Niu play strictly with the correct finger positioning(指法).

But Niu Niu was required to play the music without looking at the sheet music. Now he can memorize about 80 pages.Rising to fameIn 2003, at the age of 6, Niu Niu successfully held a sole concert(独唱音乐会) in his hometown Xiamen.

Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题):(12分)Green is an important color in nature. It is the color of grass and the leaves on trees. It is also the color of most growing plants.Sometimes, the word green means young, fresh and growing.Sometimes, it describes something that is not yet ripe (成熟) or finished. Forexample, a greenhorn is someone who has no experience, who is new to a situation. In the fifteenth century, a greenhorn was a young cow or ox whose horns (角) had not yet developed. A century later, a greenhorn was a soldier who had not yet had any experience in battle. By the eighteenth century, a greenhorn had the meaning it has today—a person who is new in a job.Someone who has the ability to grow plants well is said to have a green thumb. The expression comes from early 1900s. A person with a green thumb seems to have a magic touch that makes plants grow quickly and well. You might say the woman next door has a green thumb if her garden continues growing long after your plants have died.The Green Revolution is the name given some years ago to the development of new kinds of rice and other grains. The new plants produced much larger crops. The Green Revolution was the result of hard work by agricultural (农业的) scientists who had green thumbs.Green is also the color used to describe the powerful feeling, jealousy (嫉妒). The green-eyed monster is not a frightening creature (生物) from outer space. It is an expression firstly used about 400 years ago by British writer William Shakespeare in his play "Othello". It describes the unpleasant feeling a person has when someone has something he wants. A young man may suffer from the green-eyed monster if his girlfriend begins going out with someone else.93. What does a greenhorn now refer to?94. Is the person with a green thumb good at growing plants?95. Who works hard and helps to develop new kinds of rice and other grains?96. People don't use green to describe people's feeling, do they?97. When was the expression "the green-eyed monster" probably firstly used?98.

Reading Comprehension 阅读理解:共50分A. Choose the best answer 根据文章内容,选择最恰当的答案:12分Basic PhotographyMy favorite area in Britain is a country called Northumberland in the north-east of the country. I like it because it has mountains, the sea and history. The mountains are not very high. In China you would probably call them hills rather than mountains as they are less than 1,000 meters high, but there is something wild about these mountains you get a feeling of space and freedom. You can walk for miles without meeting another person.Northumberland is full of history. There are seven castles, some of them were ruined and the others still there as they were centuries ago. You can find graves going back to prehistoric史前的, times and strange carvings on rocks which nobody understands. The coast line is dramatic too, with beautiful sandy beaches. These beaches are rarely crowded because the weather is unpredictable and the North Sea is very cold People don’t go for seaside holidays to Northumberland because of the cold sea and weather, so even in high season there ar en’t many tourists.There is an island called Holy Island off the coast of Northumberland, you can get to the island by car or on foot when the tide is out. There is also one castle I particularly like. It is a 14th century castle which stands on a cliff right by the sea. The castle is almost completely ruined, but it looks dramatic and romantic because you can still see the gate and two of its owners. On a summer’s day you can lie on the beach nearby and let your mind wander as you look at this dream-like castle. On a winter’s day you can walk to the castle and watch the waves crash into the cliff, wondering how this castle has stood so long against the forces of nature.I once said to a friend of mine that I thought this castle by the sea was the most beautiful place in the world. She laughed and said there must be many more dramatic places in the world. In one way, I’m sure she’s right, but forme, it’s not just about what a place looks like, it’s about what it says to you.69. In China people probably call them mountains which are ______ 1,000 meters high.A. less thanB. nearlyC. more thanD. almost70. How are the seven castles in NorthumberlandA. They are modern and fantastic.B. They are all complete and magnificent.C. Some hasn’t ch anged at all for centuries.D. Some are full of strange carvings.71. Not many people visit the beautiful beach because of ______.A. the soft sandsB. the cold sea and weatherC. the warm seaD. the island nearby72. Which of the following is NOT TRUE about the reason why the author likes the 14th century castleA. It was built in the 14th century on a cliff right by the sea.B. It looks very dramatic and romantic with two towers but no gate.C. The author can let his mind wander as he looks at this dream-like castle.D. The author can walk to the castle and watch the waves crash into the cliff.73. From the last paragraph in the passage, we know ______.A. the author’s friend agreed on his opinion about the castle.B. the author does n’t think there are many more dramatic places in the world.C. the author’s friend pays no attention to the beautiful scenery.D. what the author cares is not only the scenery but also the feeling he can get from it.74. You can get the passage from the following materials EXCEPT ______.A. science fictionB. journalsC. newspapersD. magazinesB. Choose the words or expressions and complete the passage选择最恰当的单词或词语完成短文12分The first day of university our professor introduced himself and challenged us to get to know someone we didn’t already know. I stood up to look around when a 75 hand touched my shoulder. I turned around to find a wrinkled 有皱纹的, little old lady with a smile. She 76 a minute and said, “Hi, handsome. My name is Rose. I’m eigh ty-seven years old. Can I give you a hug ”I laughed and responded, “Of course you may” and she gave me a big one.We became immediate friends. Every day for the next three months, we would leave class together and talk nonstop. I always loved listening t o this ‘time machine’ 77 she shared her wisdom and experience with me. Over the course of this year Rose became a campus role model and she 78 made friends wherever she went. She loved to dress up and she loved the attention from the other students.At the end of the term we invited Rose to speak at our football club. I’ll never forget what she taught us. She was introduced and stepped up to the platform. As she began to deliver he prepared speech, she dropped her cards on the floor. A little upset she simply said, “I’m sorry I’m so nervous.I 79 beer for Lent大裔节and this wine is killing me I’ll never get my speech back in order …” As we laughed, she cleared her throat and began, “We do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because we stop playing. There is a huge 80 between growing older and growing up. Anybody can grow older, but it does take talents and abilities to grow up…”One week after graduation Rose died peacefully in her sleep. However, these words have been passed along in loving memory of ROSE.75. A. gentle B. cold C. hard D.awful76. A. left B. returned C. hesitated D. refused77. A. until B. but C. though D. as78.

Fill in the blanks with proper words 在短文的空格内填入适当的词,使其内容通顺,每空格限填一词,首字母已给 14 分Children grow quickly, especially their feet. But many families, cannot a 81 new shoes when a child needs them. As a result, about 300 million children around the world go barefoot. Those children risk picking up diseases and parasites寄生虫from the soil.An American man has a s 82 for those barefoot kids –a shoe that grows with the child. Kenton Lee is the creator of The Shoe That Grows. He explains how the shoe works and how it is able to last so long.“It grows in three places: the front, the side and the back with the child.It can last up to five years. The b 83 is compressed压缩的rubber like tire rubber. The top is just high-quality leather.”The shoe comes in two sizes: small that fits children aged 4 to 9 and large for children aged 9 to 14. Lee says he got the idea for the shoe while working as a v 84 in an orp hanage in Kenya. “… and there was a little girl ina white dress walking next to me. And I just remember looking down and seeing how small her shoes were. And she had to c 85 open the front of her shoes to let her toes脚趾stick out. At that time I just remember thinking, wouldn’tit be nice if there were a pair of shoes that could grow with her feet ” However, Lee says it was i 86 to turn his idea into a reality at that time. “YetI kept writing down I should do this because of this or because of that. All these reasons why it really was important for me to try to make the shoes grow are to try to help them.” Finally, in 2009 Lee founded a non-profit organization called Because International. Together, they have sent over 50,000 pairs ofshoes to 70 countries. Lee says a pair shoes gives a child self-worth and more chances to succeed b 87 much protection.D.Answer the questions根据短文内容回答下列问题12分You are invited to a large party. Loud music is playing, and lots of people are dancing. Do you dance or talk to as many people as you can call all night Later, you cannot fall asleep—you want more conversation Or do you prefer a quieter cornerOr perhaps you cannot wait to go home early and relax by yourself.Which of these people sound most like you Person A, who tries to talk to everyone and stays late Or Person B, who prefers to keep quiet and leaves early If you said Person A, you are probably more extroverted性格外向的. If you said Person B, you are probably more introverted内向的. Or perhaps you are Person C and fall somewhere in the middle. Introverted and extroverted people are two commonly used words to describe a person’s personality. And they are also commonly misused and misunderstood.Introverts may be thought as quiet, shy and timid. Extroverts may be thought as bold, confident, loud and full of energy. Introverted and extroverted people may fit those descriptions. But these same descriptions do not define下定义introversion and extroversion properly.Introverts and extroverts use their brains differently, and they get their energy differently. Introversion is the state of being mostly concerned with one’s own mental life. Extroversion is the opposite. Extroversion is the state of being mostly concerned with what is outside oneself.People who consider themselves introverts may say they “need to be alone to charge their batteries”. However, introverts may still live being social and going to parties. But such activities require time to prepare.Extroverts may say, “I don’t need ‘alone time’, I feel more relaxed being around other people.” Even so, extroverts can still feel unsure or not confident among other people.So where do you fall on the introversion/ extroversion chart88.
