2024-2025学年（上）攀枝花九年级质量检测英语

1、   1.What's your idea about success? Some people say that beginners have all the luck, while others believe that success comes only with practice. In fact, I feel both of these statements are not true all the time. Each is true in some ways but not in others.

For example, I went to a drawing competition many years ago and won surprisingly. As a prize, 2.我得到一张看功夫熊猫（Kung Fu Panda）的票。I was really lucky because it was the first time I had taken part in any competition. 3.Thinking that I might be lucky again, I tried joining in other art competitions. But the result was that I never won again. I knew that the other people had a greater artistic ability than I did. Art was not something I was especially interested in and I had never practiced the different art skills. So, the drawings made were not of very high standard(标准).

4. 这些经历教了我很多。Though I might have been lucky at first, I also need to put in hard work. As we know, 5.practice makes perfect. So I believe success builds on less luck and more chances.

24、There is a big tree in the deep mountain. A mother eagle(鹰) and her three babies live in the tree.

One day the mother eagle said to her babies, “Come to the edge of the nest.” The three babies moved slowly and looked down, being afraid to go too far near the edge. “We are afraid,” they replied as they hid under the safety of their mother’s comfortable wings. “Come here,” she encouraged, “I’ll help you.” They came and with a loving and watchful eye, the mother eagle gently pushed the young babies out of their nest. And being brave, the babies flew up and began their colorful life.

Just as an eagle flies far above the mountains and farms, higher and higher into the blue sky, you can go on your own journey and you are more independent. Then a whole, new, clear, great life lies before you.

In our journey through life, like the baby eagles, we hope to have new, exciting experiences and a meaningful future. So be brave, independent and take a step out of your comfortable home, and you will know where you want to go tomorrow.

25、Hit song Little Apple became so popular after it came out in late May. In China, you may hear it on a bus, or even in a small village.

Little Apple is a song for the movie Old Boys ：The Way of Dragon. The song’s huge success has also made more people see the movie. The comedy took US $17 million in its opening four days.

“The song Little Apple is so popular. After hearing it, it’s like ‘I’m brainwashed (洗脑)’ by the song. So I came to see the film.”  a man said.

“It’s a good story. But the reason I’m here at the cinema is the song Little Apple.” Hui Qing, a college student, said.

“Many people have come to see the movie, so we added more screenings for it. The film now accounts for 20 percent of the total screenings — It’s quite a good performance for a home-grown movie,” a cinema clerk said.

Old Boys ：The Way of Dragon is based on an online short film called Old Boys. The 40-minute film about youth and dreams got nearly 70 million views on a video website, and was popular among people born in the 1980s or later.

“What is popular online is a good indication (迹象) of what will be popular with young people. And this movie is a good example,” businessman Chen Su said.

26、（题文）Thumbs Down to Texting (屈指发短信)

Do you have a mobile phone? Do you send text messages to your friends and family?

Text messaging or “texting” is becoming very popular. But, scientists have discovered that texting can give us problems with our hands. Be careful! Too much texting can cause swelling in our thumbs. Our thumbs were not made for pushing small buttons, over and over . Scientists call this problem RSI. We spoke to a doctor called Harriet Wilson, who treats many sick people with RSI. She says we need to see how much time we are spending in typing text messages. If we are spending more than 10-15 minutes at once, we could have problems in the future.

As mobile phones develop, they are getting smaller with buttons closer together. Texting with a smaller phone is worse than using a larger phone with bigger buttons. Using a computer keyboard and playing video games can cause the same problem. So more and more people could find themselves with RSI. Among them, most are university students and teenagers, as they do not know the risks of spending so much time using computer, video games and mobile phones. If we don't do something about this, too many young people could grow up in terrible pain.

根据短文内容，完成下列小题。

【1】（小题1）What is becoming very popular now?

【2】（小题2）Does the word “once” mean “one time” in the second passage?

【3】（小题3）What kind of people are easier to have the problem of RSI?

【4】（小题4）What can also cause RSI except texting?

【5】（小题5）Which is easier to cause the problem of RSI, using smaller mobile phones or larger ones?

27、阅读理解。

If you could see a movie of your life before you lived it, would you want to live it? Probably not. The excitement of living is that you don’t know what’s coming.

Sure, it’s hard to see uncertainty(不确定) in such positive（积极的）light when you’re out of work, or when you feel like you’re failing. But uncertainty is really another word for chance.

When Allison graduated from Harvard, she had chances all over the place but had no idea what she wanted to do. She took a job in consulting（咨询）, but she knew she wouldn’t stay there. She took the GRE and scored so high that she was able to increase her income（收入）by teaching students. Still, she didn’t think she wanted to go to graduate school（研究院）. Allison knew she wasn’t doing what she wanted, but she didn’t know what she wanted.

She worried. All her friends were going to graduate school or starting their own businesses. She was lost and felt that she would never find anything out. After six years, Allison, by having a general（全面的）plan in mind, got married, moved to the Midwest and used her consulting experience to get a great job. Allison realized that she spent her years finding her way: time well spent.

The only way to lead an interesting life is to face uncertainty. Otherwise your life is not your own—it is a path someone else has chosen. Moments of uncertainty are when you create your life, when you become who you are. Uncertainty usually begins with a job hunt, but it doesn’t end there. Every new role we take on means another round of uncertainty. Instead of fearing it, you should find some ways to deal with uncertainty.

【1】 From the first two paragraphs, we can learn that .

A. being out of work is a sad thing

B. uncertainty is what makes life interesting

C. life in a film is more exciting than real life

D. chance never appears when we need it

【2】 What troubles Allison after graduation?

A. She couldn’t find a well-paid job.

B. She had no money to start a business.

C. She was not sure what to do.

D. She didn’t score high enough for graduate school.

【3】 How did Allison feel about her six years’ working experience?

A. Uncertain.   B. Amazed.

C. Sorry.     D. Satisfied.

【4】 What may be discussed in the following paragraph?

A. How to deal with uncertainty.

B. What role uncertainty plays in life.

C. Why people fear uncertainty.

D. Whom to go to when facing uncertainty.

28、根据短文内容和所给汉语提示，写出各处单词的正确形式。

How do you deal with the bags from the supermarket? Throw them away or burn them? What about 【1】 (回收利用) them? Some people in India choose to eat. They think it is 【2】 (简单的) way of all.

Indian firm EnviGreen has made a bag with 【3】 (大自然的) materials. The bags bring no harm to the environment. 【4】 (代替), both humans and animals can eat them safely.

EnviGreen founder Ashwath Hedge 【5】 (花) four years doing experiments in different universities. He used 12 materials including 【6】 (土豆), corn, vegetable oil and bananas. According to the Wall Street Journal, the 【7】 (结果) shows it takes 1,000 years for common bags to be broken down. But an EnviGreen bag only needs 180 days. The time will be shortened to a day in cold water and to 15 seconds if the cold water is replaced by the bot one. Hedge was 【8】 (激动) to show it in his interview with the Better India.

In China, three 【9】 (十亿) plastic bags are used every day. That causes tons of waste and at the same time 【10】 (污染) the environment. Maybe the EnviGreen bag will be a solution to this situation.

As I pulled the bus over to drop off a little girl, she handed me an earring saying I should _________ it until somebody claimed(认领)it. The earring was painted black and said “BE HAPPY”.

At first I got angry. Then it _________ me—I had been giving all of my _________ to what was going wrong with my life rather than what was right! I decided then and there to make a list of fifty things I was happy with. Later, I decided to _________ more things to the list.
