Braincomputer interface(BCI) technology could help people with disabilities send commands to machines.Recently, two scientists, Jose Millan and Michele Tavella from the Federal Polytehnic School in Lausanne, Switzerland, show a small robotic wheelchair directed by a person’s thoughts.In the laboratory, Tavella operated the wheelchair just by thinking about moving his left or right hand. He could even talk as he watched the vehicle and guided it with his thoughts.“Our brain has billions of body cells(细胞). These send signals through the spinal cord(脊髓) to the body part to give us the ability to move. But spinal cord injuries(脊柱受伤) or other conditions can prevent these weak electrical signals from reaching the body part.” Tavella says. “Our system allows disabled people to communicate with outer world and also to control machines.”The scientists designed a special cap for the user. This head cover picks up the signals from the scalp(头皮) and sends them to a computer. The computer finds meanings of the signals and commands the wheelchair with an engine. The wheelchair also has two cameras that tell objects in its path. They help the computer react to commands from the brain. Prof. Millan , the team leader, says scientists keep improving the computer software that finds meanings of brain signals and turns them into simple commands.” The practical possibilities that BCI technology offers to disabled peoplecan be grouped in two kinds: communication, and controlling objects. One example is this wheelchair.”He says his team has set two goals. One is testing with real patients, so as to prove that this is a technology they can get advantages from. And the other is sure that they can use the technology for long.1．BCI is a technology that can________.A．help to make computer systems more modernB．connect the human brain with computersC．help the disabled to be healthierD．control a person’s thoughts2．Which of the following shows the path of the signals described in Paragraph 5?A．scalp→computer→cap→wheelchairB．computer→cap→scalp→wheelchairC．scalp→cap→computer→wheelchairD．cap→computer→scalp→wheelchair3．The team will test with real patients to_________.A．make money from themB．prove the technology useful to themC．make them live longerD．learn about their physical condition4．Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A．Switzerland, the BCI research CenterB．New Findings About How the Human Brain WorksC．BCI Could Mean More Freedom for the DisabledD．Robotic Vehicles Could Help to Cure Brain SicknessB14、John was driving through a small rural(乡下的)town, feeling quite hungry.

To our surprise, Captain Nemo agreed to put us on land for a short time. We were allowed to use the dinghy. Captain Nemo did not come with us. We went alone. Ned was very excited.“We are going to eat meat!” he said. Half an hour of rowing brought us to the island. It was wonderful to walk on land again. Ned found some coconuts and drank the milk at once. Then we walked into the forest and found some breadfruit trees. Ned cooked some of the breadfruit, which tasted just like real bread. We found fruits like bananas and mangoes. Ned still wanted some meat, but it was time to go back to the Nautilus. We brought the food that we had found back with us.We returned to the island the next day and hunted birds.

Usually the male butterfly is more brightly colored than the female. The females have bigger and heavier bodies, since they carry the eggs. The gay colors of the male help to attract the female and the duller colors of the female make them less likely to be caught by enemies before they have laid their eggs.Some butterflies have a bright pattern of colors on the upper surface of their wings which show when they fly, but when they rest on a tree or leaf, they close their wings. On the undersides of their wings there are green and brown markings which look like the tree or leaves. They are then difficult to see. The best example of this is the Dead Leaf Butterfly. Even its wings are closed, it looks exactly like a dead leaf. There are even marks that look like the holes in a dead leaf. When a bird is chasing a butterfly, and it closes its wings, it seems to have disappeared completely.Many butterflies have round marks on their wings that look like eyes. When they areresting, and their wings are folded, these can’t be seen. When a bird sees one, and begins to attack it, the butterfly opens its wings. The bird thinks that it sees two eyes staring at it, and, frightened, it flies away.1．Which of the following is likely to be the most brightly colored?A．A female in a hot country. B．Male in a cool country.C．A male in a hot country. D．A dead leaf butterfly with wings closed.2．What does the underlined word “chasing”in the 2nd paragraph mean?A．running after. B．looking after. C．leave for. D．stay with.3．What is one of the reasons that female butterflies are safer from enemies than male butterflies?A．Because they are bigger.B．Because they are heavier.C．Because they have colors that are not so bright.D．Because they have marks that look like eyes.4．Which of the following is true according to the passage?A．The color of a male butterfly is always brighter than the female’s.B．The Dead Leaf Butterfly has holes in its wings.C．A lot of butterflies seem to have eyes on their wings.D．In order to catch a butterfly, the bird always closes its wings.F18、Come And Join Us!We warmly welcome you to the Shine Sports Centre!All the young people in this city can become members of the Shine Sports Centre and each member should pay $ 10 every year.

Maybe you want to improve your health, become a more energetic person. Or maybe you want to improve your study, your relations or perhaps do some personal development.One hour a day is not much.

That's a large number of books and a lot of useful advice.If you follow the ideas, who knows what great things and feelings could come into your life. Also, all that information and advice will start to open up your mind. Y ou will start to see more chances in your life.Now, you might think something like this:1.

I really don't have the time...Answer: Buy audiobooks and listen to them in the car while driving to and from work. Or copy them to yourMP3-player and listen while riding your bike /bus to work or school.

Now a new study suggests it really brings lasting health advantages. Those who had a hard time getting over daily troubles had more physical health problems ten years later.If you are likely to think over daily troubles--running through every "what if" and "if only"-- it makes you feel that's a big deal. Maddux said, “You probably find you feel even worse after a night of thinking. If that cycle is repeated over time, it will wear you down."The study results are based on 1,155 people who took in a national health study. Each day, the people described their feeling changes over the past 24 hours. During the 10-year mark, only 17 percent of the people have no physical health problems, and only 20 percent are satisfied with their physical strength. But those who always say they have negative feelings because of daily troubles are more likely to have the physical problems, the finding showed.People can be likely to have bad feelings for a longer time for many reasons. For some people, worries or anger could drive it. Many others naturally have a more nervous feeling or are likely to think over and over again. But even if you are born to be negative, that can be changed."Yes, it's hard to 'let go'," Leger said. But people can develop that skill through practice, in which you train the mind to pay attention to the present, rather than worries about the past."Paying attention to the present, especially on things you are grateful for, has been shown to have several advantages, "Leger said.1．What does the study result show us?'A．1, 155 people say they have physical health problems.B．During 24 hours, people never change their feelingsC．Only 17% of the people have no physical health problems.D．Only 20% don’t feel quite good about their physical strength.2．The underlined expression "that skill" in Paragraph 5 refers to _______.A．asking "what if”B．letting it goC．caring about the past D．thinking over and over3．The purpose of the passage is to _______.A．introduce different kinds of negative feelings.B．help people know about the national health studyC．teach readers the ways to let the negative feelings goD．ask people not to think over too much about the daily troubles4．Which part of the magazine is the passage most probably from ?A．Technology Part B．Advertisement Part.C．Health Study Part D．Chemical Research Part.F18、Stanley, as a son of a very poor farmer, left school early and went to work in a factory, for education was for the rich then. So, the world became his school. With great interest, he read everything he could, listened to the town elders and learned about the world beyond his hometown. “There’s so much to learn,” he’d say. “Though we’re born stupid, only the stupid remain that way.” He decided that none of his children would be refused an education.Therefore, Stanley insisted that we should learn at least one new thing each day. Though, as children, we thought this was crazy, we’d still do that. And dinner time seemed perfect for sharing what we learned. We would talk about the news of the day. Sometimes the news was unimportant, but it was always taken seriously. Stanley would listen carefully and discuss it with us.Then came the moment—the time to share the day’s new learning.“Felice,” he’d say, “tell me what you learned today.”“I learned that the population of Denmark is ....”Silence.Stanley was thinking about what was said. “The population of Denmark. Hmm. Well…” he’d say. “Get the map; let’s see where Denmark is.” And the whole family went on a search for Denmark.This same experience was repeated until each family member had a turn. Dinner ended only after we had a clear understanding of at least half a dozen such facts.As children, we thought very little about these educational wonders. Our family, however, was growing together, sharing experiences and joining in one another’s education. And by looking at us, listening to us, respecting what we learned, confirming our value, Stanley was surely our most influential teacher.Later during my training as a future teacher, I studied with some of the most famous educators. They were imparting(传授) what Stanley knew all along—the value of continual learning. His skills have served me well all my life. Not a single day has been wasted, though I can never tell when knowing the population of Denmark might prove useful.1．（小题1）What do we know from Paragraph 1?A．Those born stupid could not change their life.B．The poor could hardly afford school education.C．The town elders wanted to learn about the world.D．The writer’s father was born in a worker’s family.2．（小题2）The underlined word “that” in Paragraph 2 refers to(指代)______.A．one new thing B．sharing what we learnC．crazy idea D．learning one new thing3．（小题3）From the passage, we know that the writer _______.A．knew very well about DenmarkB．felt regret about those wasted daysC．thought his father’s educational skills usefulD．only talked about important news with his family4．（小题4）What is the greatest value of “dinner time” to the writer?A．Continual learning. B．Showing talents.C．Family get-together. D．Eating delicious food.5．（小题5）What is the best title of this passage?A．A poor familyB．My best teacherC．Happy time at schoolD．The most difficult knowledgeⅤ.书面表达19、俗话说，国有国法，家有家规。

广东省惠州市光正实验学校2022-2023学年九年级上学期期中英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________三、阅读单选for children.In the future, people may travel to Mars(火星) by water-powered spaceship! Today’s spaceships are fine for getting things into space, but they are not so good at travelling long distances. These spaceships burn chemical fuels(燃料) and they are very expensive. Scientists say that a water-powered spaceship could make the trip to Mars much cheaper. The idea is just in the planning stages now, but scientists think such a spaceship could be developed soon.The key to the water-powered spaceship is the engine(发动机) Regular engines push spaceships burning fuel. The water engine will use steam. Of course, the spaceship will have to carry a lot of water for the long trip to Mars. Today’s spaceships could not carry that much water. But scientists think that a spaceship blown up like a balloon will be able to do it.One US company has already developed a spaceship like this. These spaceships are made of a strong material. Two of them have already been sent up into space, using rockets and then later filled with air “Balloon” spaceships could be very large and carry enough water for a long trip. With the “Balloon” spaceships, enough water could be carried to power the engines and grow food during the trip. And the people on the spaceship might even get to take a hot bath!Scientists say the biggest advantage of such a spaceship would be its cost. The “Balloon” spaceship uses water to push it through space and costs about one thirtieth of a normal spaceship. Such savings naturally encourage continued research into balloon spaceships and water engines. If these scientists are correct, we may soon be on our way to Mars in a spaceship powered by water.26．Which of the following statements is true?A．Chinese scientists has developed the water-powered spaceships.B．Scientists are thinking about developing water-powered spaceships.C．It takes people a lot less money to send today’s spaceships into space.D．Fuels-burned spaceships are much cheaper than water-powered ones.27．The water-powered spaceships have to carry lots of water is __________.A．to burn much water to make fuel B．just to use plenty of water in spaceC．to provide enough steam for the engine D．to push spaceships to travel long distances 28．Astronauts use he rest of the water in the “Balloon” spaceships to do the followingsexcept __________.A．blowing up a balloon B．growing something to eat C．taking a hot bath D．starting the engine 29．The underlined “if” in the last paragraph is about __________.A．the planet Mars B．water as “fuel”C．the “Balloon” spaceship D．a normal spaceship 30．What's the main purpose of this passage?A．To introduce the fuel used by different spaceships.B．To describe the advantages of the water-powered spaceship.C．To let people know America has invented water-powered spaceship.D．To tell us that humans may travel to Mars by water-powered spaceship.五、短文语境提示填空Harry Potter novelsNatureEncyclopediareference book 参考书A briefhistory of Chinahistory book参考答案：1．D 2．B 3．C 4．A 5．B 6．D 7．C 8．B 9．D10．A【导语】本文介绍了英国著名的科学家斯蒂芬·霍金。
