2024-2025学年（下）平顶山九年级质量检测英语

1、阅读下面的短文，将画线部分译成英文或中文。

You are in your last year of junior high school.（1）Have you thought about what it will be like in high school? Are you ready for a fresh start in a new environment? Some high school graduates from the United States share their tips:

Organize and plan your studies

“The biggest thing is to stay organized,” says Philip Tubiolo, a graduate from Bayport High School.（2）He says you can use either paper or online tools to help with your studies. "I would transfer (转换) paper notes online and make study guides. Everything was in one spot (场所) for finals and midterms."

Find your interests

“I knew I was more of a science kid,” says Bayport’s Tubiolo. “I took AP Biology in 10th grade and loved it.”（3）AP classes are college-level classes that high school students can take.He also joined his school’s Science Olympiad team.（4）在一次国际数学比赛中，他赢得了一等奖。He even decided on a college major, although most students don’t need to make this choice so early.

Find healthy ways to relieve stress and have fun

“It’s not just study, study, study,” says Roslyn High School student Todd Warshawsky. "I was a track (田径) runner. That was a stress reliever from study." Sachem North High School graduate Erin Maryzek agrees. “（5）我们都应该学会在学校生活中找到一些有趣的事情,” says the Northeastern University freshman.

26、    In most films about space, whenever Earth faces a disaster, the solution is always running away from the planet in spaceships or expecting one or a group of superheroes to save it in the end. But the latest Chinese science fiction (sci-fi) movie, The Wandering Earth (《流浪地球））, offers a different and more ambitious(有野心的) idea. In the film, based on a short story by Chinese sci-fi writer Liu Cixin, Earth is in danger of being destroyed by the dying sun. Facing, the very danger, humans around the world work together to build a huge engine system that will push Earth away from the sun. Instead of simply leaving Earth behind — again — this time we’re taking it with us.

The Wandering Earth achieved great success during the Spring Festival this year. As China’s first homemade sci-fi blockbuster, the film has led to heated discussions. The New York Times reported that “It will be a symbol of a new era (时代) in Chinese film making.” Famous Hollywood director James Cameron also wrote on Sina Weibo that The Wandering Earth is a breakthrough of Chinese sci-fi films and is worth more attention worldwide. The “ambition” of the sci-fi film, however, didn’t come from nowhere. For thousands of years, “homeland” has been the softest part in most Chinese people’s mind. One old saying is luoyeguigen, which means returning to one’s homeland in old age, like fallen leaves returning to the roots of their tree. Or as an ancient poem reads, “The season called the White Dew begins tonight/Nowhere as in our native place is the moon so bright.” These both show the close relationship that Chinese people have had with their homeland. This special cultural background is probably what makes The Wandering Earth different from Hollywood-style space films.

And the makers of The Wandering Earth may have chosen the best time to tell its Chinese sci-fi story. The film was on Feb 5, the first day of Chinese New Year. It was a time when many people had just made the hard journey back to their hometowns. So to them, there is only one possible way to tell the story: Earth goes wherever humans go, because it’s our home.

The director of the movie, Guo Fan, said, “China’s rapid development in recent years has also allowed fertile (肥沃的) soil for the scientific, literature and films to grow. We hope that the soil will produce more amazing fruits of Chinese sci-fi film making in the near future.”

【1】About the film The Wandering Earth, which of the following is NOT TRUE?

A．It’s a Chinese sci-fi movie.

B．It’s different from most Hollywood films.

C．It is based on a short story by Liu Cixin.

D．It was made by Hollywood director James Cameron.

【2】______ play(s) a role in the movie’s success.

A．Copying Hollywood sci-fi films

B．Chinese cultural background

C．Chinese old sayings and poems

D．The producer’s hometown

【3】The underlined part in the third paragraph probably means “______” in Chinese.

A．举头望明月，低头思故乡。

B．海上生明月，天涯共此时。

C．露从今夜白，月是故乡明。

D．明月松间照，清泉石上流。

【4】Mind map ______ shows how the passage develops.

A．The Wandering Earth — story — reasons

B．

C．

D．

27、Birth order—does it matter? Are you different because you are the first, second, or third child in your family—or maybe the last of nine?

A study found that first-borns have an average(平均的) IQ that is three points higher than people who fall into a different place in the birth order, perhaps because first-borns often help younger brothers and sisters, which improves their own skills. In 2007, an international organization of CEOs found that 43% of CEOs are first-borns 33% are middle children, and 23% are last-borns. First-borns are more likely(可能的) to be doctors and astronauts and get higher pay.

If first-borns are more successful, last-borns are generally more agreeable. They are also more likely to be funny, possibly to get attention from all the bigger people at the dinner table. Mark Twain and Stephen Colbert were both the youngest in large families, and Jim Carrey was the youngest of four. According to a 2007 Time magazine article, “The power of Birth Order.” last-borns are more likely to be artists and successful businessmen.

Then there are the middle children: we have not ignored(忽视) them! Many middle children are short of one-on-one time with their parents. They often feel short-changed: the oldest gets more rights, and the youngest is spoiled(宠坏的). Though they may be ignored, middle children are more likely to grow into easygoing adults.

Many factors(因素) make us who we are, but if the research is correct, birth order may be one of the most important factors.

【1】Who is most likely to be a CEO?

A．A first-born.

B．A second-born.

C．A third-born.

D．A last-born.

【2】What can we learn about Jim Carrey?

A．He was likely to be given low pay.

B．He was likely to be agreeable.

C．He was a first-born.

D．He was a middle child.

【3】What does the underlined word “short-changed” in Paragraph 4 probably mean in Chinese?

A．受亏待的

B．受控制的

C．受宠爱的

D．受欢迎的

【4】We can learn from the research that birth order ________.

A．has no influence on IQ

B．matters a lot at the dinner table

C．may decide who we are

D．is a factor in making us powerful

【5】What would be the best title for the text?

A．Where Is Your Place in the Family?

B．Who Improves Your Social Skills?

C．What Makes You Successful in Life?

D．How Can You grow into a big Man?

28、

Yesterday, there was a football game in our school. I was one of the 【1】 (player) of the team. 【2】 (I) teammates all tried to win the game. We didn’t want to let our teachers and classmates down.
