浙江省杭州市2017届九年级上学期英语期中考试试卷

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中选出最佳选项。

A

    Several months after I was badly hurt in a car accident, my father sent me to a blind school.

    That morning was the new beginning. I went to this school and I heard lots of children. My new teacher took me to the class where we were taught to write and type in Braille(盲文 ). I found it quite difficult.

    "Hi, sweetheart, how is school going?" asked my father.

    "Daddy, I can't do this. I try and try but I just don't get it. I don't know if I am ever going to learn to read Braille. It's too difficult," I cried.

    Daddy just held me in his arm and said, "Do you remember that we went to the temple which is on the top of a mountain? When we were climbing the mountain, my legs started aching. I sat down and said, 'I can't see the temple. You can't see it because it is covered with fog. Although you can't see it, I know it is here. I will make sure you will climb up to it.'"

    "That day you showed me that just you can't see something does not mean it is not there. So although climbing the mountain was difficult, I knew I would get to the top."

    I was clear what my dad wanted me to understand.

    I went back to school and started with new energy. Very soon I could read.

One of my classmates said, "You are lucky, you know, you have at least seen the world. I have just heard it. I have been told there are many colors in this world but I don't understand what color means."

    After listening to her for the first time in two years, I felt lucky. And on that day I learnt that although the light in my eyes is gone. I must see the world with the light in my heart.

 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

A shoemaker sp ent his time in singing from morning till night. It was wonderful to see, wonderful to hear. He was very pleased.

However, his neighbor—a banker, who was very rich, sang little and slept less. When by chance he fell into a light sleep in the early morning, the shoema ker woke him up with his song. The banker complained(抱怨) sadly that God had not made sleep a saleable thing, like food or drink, that people can buy with money. At last he sent for the singer. He said to him,"How much money a year do you make, Master Gregory?"

"How much a year, sir?"said the happy shoemaker laughing,"I have never thought in that way, living as I dofrom one day to another; somehow I manage to reach the end of the year; each day brings its meal."

"Well then! How much money a day do you make, my friend?"

"Sometimes more, sometimes less. But the worst of it is that we can't work a few days in the year, or we willmake more."

The banker said with a laugh,"In the future I shall place you above what you want. Take these hundred gold coins, keep them carefully, and make use of them in time of need."

The shoemaker was surprised to have all so much money. Returning home, he buried(埋藏) his money and his happiness at the same time. No more singing, he lost his voice at the moment he got his money. Sleep left him and cares, worries, and fears took its place. All day, he kept his eye on his money from time to time; and at night, if some cat made a noise, he thought someone stealing his money. At last the poor man ran to the house of his rich neighbor. He said,"____."

He was happy again.

Shortly after Mary left the university, she went to travel in Canada. When she returned to New York, she told a lot of funny things to her best friend, Jack. Jack has become very {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(interest) in Canada from then on. And he decided to have {#blank#}2{#/blank#} visit there. 

The next summer vacation, Jack and Mary had a plan {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(go) to Canada together. But Mary's mother was {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(serious) ill so she went to the airport to see her friend off. 

When they got to the airport, Mary had to go to the washroom. After she came back, she couldn't find Jack because there were so many people in the airport. She looked {#blank#}5{#/blank#} him everywhere, but it was hard to find Jack among the people. 

Suddenly, Mary saw Jack. She felt very happy {#blank#}6{#/blank#} shouted, "Hi, Jack. Here, here!" At the same time, Jack waved his arms. "I'm here!" In three minutes, so many policemen came to the front of Jack and {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(catch) him, "Please come with us to the police office. "

After the policemen found out the truth, they let {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(they) free. Why? Because the word "hijack" in English has different {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(meaning). You can look it up in the dictionary {#blank#}10{#/blank#} you want to know about it.
