23、直到昨晚很晚爸爸回了家他才去睡觉。

He ___________ his father came back home late last night.

24、One day while driving from my home to work. I noticed a car in front of me had a wobbly(不稳定的)wheel. It was clear that the wheel had been changed recently and had not been fixed correctly. On a slow road this would not show much of a problem but I knew a highway was coming soon. There the traffic would move much faster and the driver would be in danger as the wheel could come off at that speed.

I was driving a large jeep at the time and the car in front was a small one driven by a young lady on her own. So as I tried to flash(闪)my lights and wave her to pull over,  I was worried that she wouldn't’ pull over on the road side when she found in her mirror a single man chasing(追) her down in a jeep and waving for her to pull over.

Thankfully. she trusted more in the good nature of people and pulled over where I could explain the problem. She said the wheel was changed only the night before and that she would pull into the nearest garage(修车间)where the repairman had tools to fix the wheel correctly.

My belief is that the act of kindness was hers and not mine. How so? Well, it was she who chose to believe in the possibility that people are good over the belief that bad things would come from being waved over to the side of the road by strangers.

I am glad I was able to wave her down in time and so a serious accident might have been avoided. But I am even happier that she believed in a stranger.

26、Scientists have found a new use for children’s imaginations(想象力)—to make Stomachaches go away.

The BBC reports a new study that shows: “Children can be taught to use their Imaginations to deal with stomachaches.” This may be very good news for parents who need a quick cure for their sick children.

Any mother or father understands the stomach problem is one of the most frequent(时常发生的) things their children complain about. Around twenty percent of children suffer from stomachaches that doctors cannot find a reason for.

This new research is especially good for kids with active imaginations. Researchers found that the more creative the child is, the better he or she is at imagining the pain away.

The researchers used a relaxing CD with children. A voice guided them through different fantasy(幻想) situations. One of these was pretending to be floating on a cloud. Thirty children took part in the tests. Half of them used the “guided imagery” method, and the other half received normal medicines. Researchers found 73.3 percent of the CD users reported a reduction in pain. This compared to only 26.7 percent of kids who got normal treatment.

Study leader Dr Miranda Tilburg was very excited about her findings. She believed that it was a very cheap and easy way to stop children’s stomachaches. She said it would not work as well with adults.

A. have less imaginations

B. don’t know how to relax

C. want to stop their kids’ stomachaches in a short time

D. can find why children suffer from stomachaches

【2】What kind of kids will benefit(从…收益) most from the new research?

A. Kids who like listening to music.

B. Kids who are good at remembering things.

C. The independent(独立的) kids.

D. Kids with active imaginations.

【3】Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. Sometimes, doctors don’t know why children suffer from stomachaches.

B. Children complain about their learning problems most frequently.

C. The more creative the child is, the less likely he or she is to have a stomachache.

D. 30 children received normal medicines in the tests.

【4】From the end of the passage, we know that__________.

A. adults can also use their imaginations to make stomachaches go away

B. Dr Miranda Tilburg wasn’t pleased with her findings

C. the normal cure for stomachaches will not be used

D. a cheap and easy way to stop children’s stomachaches has been found

【5】What does this passage mainly tell us?

A. Tell us how to stop stomachaches in public places.

B. Children can “imagine”their pain away.

C. Children’s imaginations are very active.

D. It mainly talks about how to develop children’s imaginations.

27、One day, when I arrived at school, an ice cream truck was parked in the schoolyard. Ice cream men usually drove their trucks to primary schools. I had never thought one ice cream truck would come to bring ice cream to us older kids. When I went up to the truck, I was quite surprised to hear the man call out, "Free ice cream!" To make sure of his words, I asked, "I'm sorry, what did you say?" "Free ice cream. Choose whichever you like." he said, smiling.

After I was certain that the man was just giving away the ice cream, I talked with him for a long time. He told me that his dream had always been to travel around giving away ice cream, and that's what he was now doing. With his mother's support, he kept doing what he loved even during hard times. Now, however, some large companies are helping him his plan.

The man said he wanted to encourage people to do exactly what their heart told them to do with their lives. I kept asking him, "So your dream was just to drive around and give away ice cream? It seems like a very unusual goal." "Yes, just meeting people and making them smile," he replied. At that point he handed me my ice cream. I thanked him, but what I got from him was much more than just an ice cream. It can't easily be explained in words. I believe what he is doing is exactly what a great person does all the time: small acts of big love.

【1】From the story we know that the writer was most probably_______ at that time.

A. a primary school teacher B. a primary school student

C. a middle school student   D. a middle school teacher

【2】Why did the writer ask the ice cream man what he had said again?

28、请认真阅读下面短文，并根据各题所给首字母的提示，写出一个合适的英语单词完整、正确的形式，使短文通顺。

As we all know, life is full of dreams and having a good dream is of great importance in our daily life. Without a good dream, people can’t make p【1】; without a good dream, countries can’t d【2】; without a good dream, the world can’t become so beautiful! And I believe that everyone, whether he is old or y【3】, poor or rich, does have a good dream! After all, dreaming is certainly a part of our life, and wishing for good things, h【4】, costs nothing!

What’s more, it is important to f【5】 our dreams, especially for those who are Grade 9 students. It is high time for them to fly their dreams. If they can’t let their dreams fly, the dream would just die!

Therefore, it is no wonder that so many people have a dream since their childhood. With a nice dream, China has s【6】 prevented the COVID-19 from spreading through the country; with a nice dream, Hong Kong r【7】 to the motherland peacefully in 1997; with a nice dream, I can stand on this stage to take part in the final English speech competition. And in order to a【8】 success, I must do the best!

So my good friends, if you want to r【9】 your dream, please do not be afraid in face of d【10】. You must keep going forward bravely! Just fly your dream highly above the sky!
