四川省德阳市中江县2023-2024学年九年级上学期期末英语试卷
Recently I watched a movie called Home Coming《万里归途》. It's about China saving its people from other countries.
A war breaks out in a country in North Africa. Millions of Chinese people are in danger. They look forward to coming back to China and seeing their families. The Chinese government begins to help them leave right away.
One thing touched me the most. When Zong Dawei, the main character, finally gets back home, it is Chinese New Year. The sound of fireworks is everywhere. This is a happy moment, but because of his experiences in North Africa, Zong is often frightened of these sounds.
The contrast (对比) between the gunfire in war and the fireworks in peace taught me the cruelty(残酷) of war, the hard- won peace and the hard work of my motherland to let us live a safe life. It not only lets me feel the power of our motherland but also makes me feel proud of being Chinese.
Darrell: Marina... Marina... MARINA! Marins: Oh, sorry. I didn't hear you. I was thinking about my homework. Darrell: What's it about? Marina: Well, I need to draw a future house for my art class, but I haven't got any ideas. Maybe I should go to the library and look for something useful. Darrell: Or you can try Pinterest. Marina: Isn't it a shopping app? Darrell: Not really. Many people share their works on Pinterest and tell you how they made them. I'm sure you can get some ideas there. Marina: Sounds like you use it often. Darrell: Yeah. Just last week I went there and found the A to Z of making chocolate. cake— from choosing good chocolate to baking(烘烤) the cake to making sugar flowers on top. Marina: Really? I'll check it out later. Thanks a lot. |

Riding bikes is becoming more and more popular all over the world. Many people like riding in their daily lives. The following are some students' ideas about it:
◆ Lily: Having a night bike riding in a big city is really good for us. When we're riding around the city, we open our eyes. Many people travel by bike. They say travelling by bike gives them a chance to see the world differently.
◆ Tom: If you live in a city full of cars, a bike can help to save your time. You don't need to pay different kinds of vehicle taxes (车税). It helps you save money.
◆ Peter: It's good for the environment. You should just start from yourself, do something to reduce air pollution and keep the air clean. Then try to ride a bike to school or to work.
◆ Mark: Now, we are so busy that we often don't have time to exercise. Riding can give us the chance. It is good for our mind and body.
Do you think it's your turn to live a safe, happy and healthy life now?
