江苏省无锡市北塘区2016届九年级上学期英语期中考试试卷

根据短文理解,选择正确答案。

    Many people go to school for an education. They learn languages, history, geography, physics, chemistry and mathematics. Others go to school to learn a skill so that they can make a living. School education is very important and useful. Yet no one can learn everything from school; no matter how much the teacher knows, he cannot teach his students everything they want to know. The teacher's job is to show his students how to learn. He teaches them how to read and how to think. So much more is to be learned outside school by the students themselves.

    It is always more important to study by oneself than to memorize some facts or a formula(公式).

    It is actually quite easy to learn a certain fact in history or a formula in mathematics. But it is very difficult to use a formula in working out a maths problem. Great scientists, such as Einstein, Newton and Galileo didn't get everything from school. But they were all so successful. They invented so many things for mankind. The reason for their success is that they knew how to study. They read books that were not taught at school. They worked hard all their lives, wasting not a single moment. They would ask many questions at what they read and they did thousands of experiments.

(1)、What do many people go to school for?

A、Teaching. B、Books. C、Learning languages. D、An education
(2)、The teacher's job is to teach ______.

A、everything the students want to know B、students everything he knows C、students some facts or formulas D、students the methods of learning
(3)、Einstein, Newton and Galileo did so many things for mankind because _______.

A、they learned a lot at school B、they learned everything inside and outside school C、they were so useful D、they went to college and learned from professors
举一反三

Dear Agony Aunt,

I'm a Grade 8 student. I find no matter how hard I study, I always get low marks in math. I have lots of 1 and can't sleep well. What's worse, my elder brother thinks I have a lower IQ(智商) than my classmates. So I always2 him.

Sad Betty

Dear Sad Betty,

Thank you for your letter. I hope my3 can be of some help to you! I know you are in a bad situation, but never doubt(怀疑) 4 ! Please believe you have a 5 IQ like other common students. Since I worked as Agony Aunt ten years ago, I have 6 many students like you. They seem not to make any progress(进步) in 7 although they are very hard-working. So I understand how you are feeling.

Everyone is 8 others and everyone is good at different things. So you shouldn't 9 yourself with others, although I know it will be not easy.

I know you must be very hard-working, but 10 your learning methods (方法)aren't suitable (适合的) for you. If you aren't sure about it, why not 11 your math teacher for help? It's a better way to tell your math teacher about your 12 and your learning methods. I believe he or she would like to help you and 13 you some learning methods that suit you better. You can also study together with your classmates who are good at math. Team study is 14 helpful.

As for your elder brother, you can talk with him in a friendly way. 15 it doesn't work, ask your parents for help.

In a word, the most important thing is not to doubt yourself. I believe you can make it!

Agony Aunt

More and more people choose paid study rooms with cute tables and chairs, green plants, pretty walls and quiet computer keyboards. To build a friendly learning environment, some rooms have low light to help people focus on their work. Some places have sunrooms and learners can enjoy beautiful nature from large windows. The workers will tell people to keep quiet in the study areas.

"We hope to offer a perfect learning place to people who want to study," said Wang Yi, founder(创始人) of a 24-hour paid study room. "Over the past six months, the number of people coming was much bigger than we first thought, so we are now looking for new places."

Feng Jia comes to the paid study room every day to prepare for exams. "There are not enough seats in public libraries. Also, there are many people talking or walking around," he said. At home, it is even harder to focus because of phones, snacks and pets.

While many people welcome the paid study rooms, others are afraid that these rooms will replace libraries. Xu Qiang, director of the Shanghai Library's reader service centre believes that public libraries and paid study rooms are satisfying the different needs of people. "People come to public libraries for the large number of books, while they go to the study rooms for the learning environment," said Xu.

 阅读下列材料,从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳答案

Have you seen any scarecrows (稻草人)? In the countryside of our country, some villagers like to set up some scarecrows in the fields in order to prevent birds from harming their crops. They think that this can play a role in driving away birds. In fact, not only farmers love to use scarecrows, but also some airports have installed scarecrows in such a developed technology today, which plays a very good role in driving away birds. Some people will say that birds are not fools, and they will come back to eat after a long time. So do the birds really feel scared? Can scarecrows really play a role in driving away birds? Not very — unless you're willing to put some extra(额外)effort into them.

While traditional scarecrows who couldn't move do work against "pest birds" (eg. crows and blackbirds), the effect is almost always temporary (暂时的). Over time, the birds get used to scarecrows who couldn't move and reuse their destructive (破坏性的)habits.

However, a few tricks can up your scarecrow's game. Researchers have learned that those with realistic facial features(特征)and brightly colored clothes are better at driving away birds. Also, moving a scarecrow around every few days often helps. According to several studies, flailing(大幅波动) scarecrows get the very best results.

 C. Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words。

A friend of mine was fond of drawing horse. He drew the horses very well, but he always began the tail. Now it is the Western rule to begin at the head of the horse, that is why I was surprised. It struck me that it could not really make any difference w{#blank#}1{#/blank#} the artist begins at the head or the tail or the belly(肚子)or the foot of the horse, if he really knows his business. And most great artists who really know their business do not follow other people's rule. They make their own r{#blank#}2{#/blank#}. Every one of them does his work in a way peculiar(奇特的) to himself; and the peculiarity means only that he f{#blank#}3{#/blank#} it more easy to work in that way. 

Now the very same thing is true to literature(文学). And the q{#blank#}4{#/blank#}, "How shall I begin?" only means that you want to begin at the head i{#blank#}5{#/blank#} of beginning at the tail or somewhere else. That is, you are not yet experienced(有经验的) e{#blank#}6{#/blank#} to trust to your own powers. When you become more experienced you will never ask the question, and I think that you will often begin at the tail --that is to say, you will write the e{#blank#}7{#/blank#} of the story before you have even thought of the beginning.
