赤峰2024-2025学年第一学期期末教学质量检测试题(卷)初一英语

1、阅读下面的短文，将划线部分译成英文或中文。

       Yang Peijie, 71, has been performing Haian flower-drum dances（海安花鼓）for more than fifty years.

       The Haian flower-drum dance dates back to more than 400 years. It became popular in the areas of the Yangtze River and the Huaihe River in the Ming Dynasty（1368-1644）. 1. 在过去，它被用来展现当地人们的生活。“It’s more gentle compared to flower-drum dances in other places such as in Anhui and Hunan, ” Yang said. Many of its dance steps came from daily life and express positive feelings. For example, fengbailiu （风摆柳） means you have to twist （弯曲） your body like the wind blowing willow trees.

       Yang started to learn the dance from old artists in the 1960s. At that time, people could only learn it this way. There were no textbooks. 2. Worrying it might get lost, Yang spent five years studying the history of the dance and recorded its steps in detail. He visited almost all the local artists and wrote a book about it.

       3. In recent years, Yang has kept on spreading the dance among all age groups. He set up a team to work on this. The team members have visited about eight schools to teach students. It has been combined （结合）with break-time exercises in many schools. 4. To interest kids, they separate difficult dance steps into several simple ones. Xu Hongxuan, a pupil from Haian Elementary School said, “I have been practicing it for three years. I think it’s more interesting than the radio gymnastic exercises（广播体操）. We beat drums to the music in all kinds of ways. Some dance steps are difficult, 5. 但当我掌握了它们之后，我感到开心和自豪。 Now I am a member of the flowerdrum dance club. ”

       Besides schools, Yang and the team members also go to communities and parks to teach older people. “I don’t want to see the art fail to be passed down from me, ” Yang said.

27、 Emergencies (紧急情况) don’t happen very often. But when they do, you want to get help first. No one wants to spend time looking up the phone numbers.

In 1968, the United States government wanted one number that people could call for emergencies. They decided that 911 was easy to remember and people could dial it quickly. The very first 911 call was made on February 16, 1968, in Alabama. Today, 911 is used for emergencies in most parts of the United States and many parts of Canada.

Other countries may use other numbers. In Great Britain, it’s 999. If you’re not sure which emergency number is used in your area, check your phone book.

When to call

Never call 911 as a joke or just to see what might happen. The only time you should call 911 is when a person is badly hurt or in danger right now! So call when there is a fire, a car accident, or sudden sickness, etc.

When in an emergency call

When you dial the 911 operator（接线员），it’s always OK to give out your information. Speak slowly and clearly when you explain what’s happening. What happened? Where are you? Who needs help?

Don’t hang up（挂断）!

If you have to call 911, do not hang up until the operator tells you it’s OK to do so. That way, you can be sure that the operator has all the information to offer help fast.

A dog named Faith dialed 911 when her owner who was in a wheelchair fell and needed help.

She had been taught to use a speed-dial (快速拨号) function.

【1】The emergency number 911 was first used in ________ in the USA.

A. 1958 B. 1968 C. 1978 D. 1999

【2】Why was 911 chosen to be the emergency call?

A. Because other countries also used the number.

B. Because it was suggested by the phone company.

C. Because it was simple and easy to remember and dial.

D. Because it was also used in many parts of Canada.

【3】People can’t call 911 when ________.

A. a bus hits a boy badly

B. a girl feels bored

C. an old lady falls off the stairs, unable to stand up

D. some people can’t get out of a burning building

【4】 Which is the right thing to do?

A. Wait for the operator’s words to end the call.

B. Tell the operator what has happened and hang up.

C. Test if your phone can get through to 911.

D. Tell the operator everything as quickly as possible.

【5】Which is NOT true according to the passage?

A. 911 is an emergency number almost throughout the United States.

B. We haven’t got a worldwide universal（通用的）emergency number yet.

C. Usually phone books list emergency call numbers.

D. The dog Faith pressed the three numbers 9-1-1.

28、When it comes to the benefit of volunteering， a lot of people think it’s all about the warm feeling after helping someone. 【1】_________. As is known， charity (慈善) work needs lots of people to do different kinds of work. It means that there are many surprising benefits for volunteers.

◆Teach you new skills.

From helping making websites to teaching foreigners your native language， or to making plans for charity， volunteering can really be almost anything. It means that when you get involved in charity work， a lot of time you will face challenges. 【2】________.

◆Teach you what truly matters.

It’s a great way to find new perspectives (角度) on life. When you’ve been at it for a while， you just might view yourself in a different way. 【3】________. One of my friends once wanted to be a doctor， but later he found his interest was in teaching.

◆【4】_________.

Maybe it’s not so surprising， but what might surprise you is how true these friends are. Some of my long-term friends are people I’ve met through volunteering. I’m not the kind of guy that makes friends just for connections， but sometimes it’s very convenient to have a wide network .

【5】_________. Not only as a person， but it helps you develop your skill set as well. So if you’ve ever considered volunteering， what are you waiting for?

A. But it’s not the only benefit

B. Help you make new friends

C. You might even take a new road in life

D. In a word， volunteering helps you grow

29、通读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后在各题所给的四个选项中（A, B, C, D)中选出一个最佳选项

Ronny looked like every other kid in the first-grade classroom where I volunteered as the Reading Mum. However, Ronny stood apart from his classmates in other ways. He had a speech problem so he couldn’t read like _________ kids in his grade.

I worked with all the students in Ronny’s class one by one to improve their reading skills. On the days when it was Ronny’s _________, I gave him a silent smile, and he flew out of his chair. He sat very close to me and opened the book _________ he was opening a treasure that nobody had ever seen.

I watched his fingers move slowly under each letter as he tried his best to read out. Every time he _________ to read a word with a strange pronunciation, the biggest smile would _________ across his face and his eyes would shine with pride. It broke my heart each and every time.

A few weeks _________ the school year ended, I held an awards ceremony. I _________ Ronny with a book—one of those Little Golden Books that only cost $5 for his _________ in reading. Tears ran down his face as he held the book close to him and went back to his seat. I stayed with the Class for the rest of the day. Ronny never let go of the book, not once. It never left his hands.

A few days later, I returned to the school to visit. I _________ Ronny on a chair near the playground, the book open in his lap. His teacher said, “He __________ that book down since you gave it to him. Do you know that’s his first book he’s ever actually owned?”

Keeping back my tears, I walked __________ Ronny, placed my hand on his shoulder and asked,“Will you read me your book, Ronny?”And then, for the next few minutes, he read to me more __________ than I’d ever thought possible from him. The __________ were already dog-eared（卷角的）, like the book had been read thousands of times already. When he finished reading, Ronny closed his book and said with great satisfaction,“Good book!”

__________ powerful influence the writer of that Little Golden Books had made in the life of a disadvantaged child. At that moment, I knew I would get __________ about my own writing and do what that writer had done, and probably still does—care enough to write a story that changes a child’s life, care enough to make a difference.
