江苏省姜堰市张甸市初级中学2018届九年级上学期英语期中考试试卷

阅读回答问题。

    As a student, I was most afraid to answer questions in class, and I found that the students around were just like me. At the beginning of each class, when the teacher asked a question, I always lowered my head because I was afraid the teacher saw me.

One day, in a foreign language class, Mr. Black gave us a lesson. He wanted us to be active in class, so he asked us some questions, but no one answered. "Let me tell you a story first," he said.

"When I came to the United States to study, the university often invited famous people to make speeches. Before the beginning of every speech, I found an interesting thing. The students around me always took a cardboard folded(折叠的) in half, wrote their names in bold(黑体) with the most eye-catching(引人注目的) color, and then placed the cardboard on the seat. So when the speaker needed the answers from the students, he could see it and call a listener's name directly."

"I couldn't understand that. My classmate told me the speakers were all top people, who meant chances. When your answer was to his surprise, it meant he might give you more chances. In fact, I really saw a few students got great chances because of that."

    After listening to the story, I understood that the chance will not find you itself. You must show yourself all the time so that you can find a chance on the card.

(1)、Why did the writer lower his head? (No more than 8 words)

(2)、What did Mr. Black want the students to do in his class? (No more than 3 words)

(3)、How did the speaker get to know the students' names? (No more than 5 words)

 words)

    Microsoft founder Bill Gates has talked about how to be a good parent, saying that 13 is a right age for a child's first cellphone. The father of three said on the show that his children Jennifer and Rory were not allowed having phones until their thirteenth birthday and his younger daughter Phoebe is still waiting for one.

    "We've made a rule in our family that it's 13 when you get a phone." He also said as a result his children often return home from school complaining(抱怨), "All the other kids have it. I'm the only one without it. It's so embarrassing."

    Asked if he keeps passwords(密码)to his son's and daughters' email and Facebook accounts(账号), Mr Gates said that he doesn't for Jennifer, who he said was" old enough".

    Besides their wealth, Mr and Mrs Gates, who live in Lake Medina, have said they want to raise their children as normally as possible. It is said that their kids have to do housework after school and aren't given much pocket money.

    And in 2010Mr Gates said that he wanted to give most of his $ 61 billion away rather than hand it down." That wouldn't be good for my kids or society, "he said.

    Mr Gates left Microsoft in 2008 to put his heart into charity. During the interview with host Matt Lauser, he said that helping others made him feel happy as creating software.

    "What you really feel is what you've achieved. If a piece of software gets out there and lots of people love it-it lets them get their work done in better ways-that's exciting, "he explained.
