山东省济南市槐荫区2020年5月九年级英语学业水平阶段性调研测试(一模)试卷

阅读理解

    If English means endless new words, difficult grammar and sometimes strange pronunciation, you are wrong. Haven't you noticed that you have become smarter since you started to learn a language?

    According to a new study by a British university, learning a second language can lead to an increase in your brain power. Researchers found that learning other languages changes grey matter. This is the area of the brain which processes information. It is similar to the way that exercise builds muscles (肌肉).

    The study also found the effect (效果) is greater when the younger people learn a second language. A team led by Dr. Andrea Mechelli, from University College London, took a group of Britons who only spoke English. They were compared with a group of "early bilinguals" who had learnt a second language before the age of five, as well as a number of later learners. Scans showed that grey matter density (密度) in the brain was greater in bilinguals than in people without a second language. But the longer a person waited before mastering a new language, the smaller the difference. "Our findings suggest that the structure (结构) of the brain is changed by the experience of learning a second language," said the scientists.

    It means that the change itself increases the ability to learn. Professor Dylan Vaughan Jones of the University of Wales, has researched the link between bilingualism and math skills. "Having two languages gives you two windows on the world and makes the brain more flexible (灵活的)," he said. "You are actually going beyond language and have a better understanding of different ideas."

    The findings had the same result in a study of native Italian speakers who had learned English as a second language between the ages of two and thirty-four. Reading, writing, and comprehension were all tested. The results showed that the younger they started to learn, the better. "Studying a language means you get an entrance to another world," explained the scientists.

①"Volunteering(做志愿工作)can make a real difference to the world. It makes you look at the world differently. You see how little things can change a person's life for the better which makes everyone a better person. "Mason,a volunteer said. 

②National Volunteer Week started in 1974 and is held every April. It is a time to thank volunteers for their achievements. t is also a perfect opportunity(机会)to encourage others to take their first step toward becoming a volunteer. Making the decision to take the first step can be the biggest problem,because they often wonder if they will be able to meet the organization's expectations(期望). Some people fear not knowing anyone else in the group. Not having enough time also stops some from sharing their abilities. The following tips can help if you have some of these worries. 

③Start out 'slowly,don't add too much pressure(压力). Even a few hours a month can make a big difference in someone's life. 

④Choose an organization (组织)with the same interests and common values. 

⑤Take part in a training meeting for new volunteers,even if it is not asked. 

⑥Work with a experienced volunteer. He volunteered a lot,he can help you increase the confidence and completely understand the organization's expectations. 

⑦Invite a friend or family member to serve. It is a good experience to volunteer with them

⑧Finally,it is most important to enjoy the volunteer experience and to remember that not all volunteer experiences are perfect. If one experience doesn't work, don't give up and you'll surely find the right opportunity. 

⑨Spend some time on' volunteer 'work and you will 'see great' changes in people's lives. As Mason discovered during his volunteer experience, "… little things can change a person's life. "

 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中, 选出最佳选项。

A lot of people play sports, but very few people become sports professionals(专家). If sports aren't going to be your future, then why should you play them? Why should you train every day? Why should you work hard and feel sore(酸痛的) the next day? Wouldn't it be better to forget sports and only pay attention to your lessons? In fact, there are a lot of reasons to play sports.

First of all, sports are a great way to exercise. Exercising keeps you health y and strong. It also helps you stay in a good condition. When you exercise, your body makes endorphins(安多芬) which give you more energy and make you feel happier.

Also, sports teach young people how to communicate and work as a team. They teach young people to respect(尊重) their coaches, teammates and players from the other team. Many reports say that sports help young people stay out of trouble. If a young person plays sports, he or she may have fewer problems. This is because sports teach people about rules. They also teach people that if they work hard, they might succeed.

Another good way of sports is that they make people leave their houses. These days, a lot of people spend too much time watching television and playing video games. When you play sports, you go outside and exercise in the sun. You take in fresh air. All of these things are important.

All in all, maybe you' re not going to become a sports professional, but that doesn't matter, sports will help you become a better and happier person.

①Have you ever heard of the British Library? It is one of the largest research libraries in the world. 

②The British Library has more than 170 million items. Its collection includes 14 million books, along with a great number of manuscripts(手稿). In the Chinese collection, people can find more than 450 Chinese oracle bones(甲骨) dating back over three thousand years to the Shang Dynasty and the Diamond Sutra, the world's earliest-dated printed book. 

③Recently, sixteen Chinese online novels have become the first Chinese web novels to be included in the British Library. Readers can look up the information of the 16 books on the library's website and borrow printed copies at the library. 

④The books now in the library's Asian & African collections are The Wisdom of the Great Song Dynasty,Good Spring Time,Magic World and so on. And these works are considered as the classics of Chinese online literature(文学) from the past 20 years. 

⑤The British Library chooses books according to readers' requirements and the value of the books — what the readers want to read and what works are important in culture. The collection of the 16 works shows that online literature has become important. Let's take one of them as an example. 

⑥The novel named Good Spring Time gives special attention to china culture, showing a spirit that encourages people to fight against fate(命运) actively, and describes women's independence, as well as the love and care among family members. 

⑦Although some people think it is not a big deal for the 16 Chinese works to be included in the British Library, others, especially, some fans and writers in China are very excited and regard it as a successful cultural exportation(输出). And they hope for more attention to web novels in the future.
