江苏盐城射阳外国语学校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。

    Idioms(成语) are phrases and sentences that do not mean exactly what they say. Even if you know the meaning of each word you see or hear, you may not understand the idiom because you don't understand the culture behind it.

    For example, if an American boy asks his mother what's for dinner tomorrow, she may say “I'll play it by ear”, that means she doesn't have plans for dinner and she will decide later. “Play by ear” used to mean playing music using the sheet music(活页乐谱), but now people often use it when they're not talking about music.

    There're many idioms in English. If you learn to use them, your English will be more vivid and colorful. English idioms are more common in spoken English. They can be difficult to remember sometimes. Next time when you hear somebody saying to you, “Give me a hand”, you don't necessarily reach out your hand to him/her, but you do need to be helpful. And when the situation is out of hand, you usually can do very little to manage all that. What about a green hand? It's not about the color of your hand! You're a green hand when you are very new at your work and don't have much experience. If you and your partner always work together hand in glove, you two certainly work together very well.

    Can you guess the meanings of some common English idioms to do with parts of your body?

(1)、An idiom is _______.

A、a phrase or a sentence that means exactly what the words say B、a phrase or a sentence that doesn't mean exactly what every word says C、so difficult that nobody can understand D、something to do with parts of your body
(2)、If a mother says “I'll play it by ear” to talk about the dinner, she means _______.

A、she will cook dinner while listening to music at the same time B、she doesn't hear what others are talking about. C、she will play music using the sheet music instead of cooking dinner D、She doesn't have plans for dinner and will decide later
(3)、When one says “Can you give me a hand?”, he means _______.

A、he needs to hold your hand. B、he works well with you C、he needs your help D、he is a new comer and can't help with the situation
(4)、What does the word “vivid” mean?

A、生动的 B、恰当的 C、独特的 D、有意义的
(5)、Here are four common English idioms to do with parts of your body and their meanings.

Can you match them?

1) to learn something by heart          a. to depend on oneself

2) to have sticky fingers               b. to know something very well

3) to stand on one's own feet           c. to do something secretly

4) to go behind someone's back          d. to have the habit of stealing

A、1-b; 2-a; 3-d; 4-c B、1-b; 2-d; 3-a; 4-c C、1-c; 2-b; 3-a; 4-d D、1-c; 2-d; 3-b; 4-a

"May we all be blessed with longevity. Though miles apart, we are still able to share the beauty of the moon together(但愿人长久,千里共婵娟)."wrote Su Shi, a poet during the Song Dynasty, in his well-known poem to his younger brother Su Zhe.

The moon is at its brightest on the 15th day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar. On this day, people celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival. It has been enjoying great popularity all over the country.

In ancient China, that day was a harvest(收获) festival because crops(庄稼) were harvested during that period. It was also a time for relaxation and celebration.

Just like Thanksgiving in Western countries, families also try to get together for the Mid-Autumn Festival in China. Usually, no matter how far away or how busy they are, people will try to return home for the celebration.

The Mid-Autumn has its own special food just as other traditional Chinese holidays. People eat mooncakes with fillings such as sugar and eggs. The round shape of the cake makes it look like the full moon. The full moon and mooncakes stand for family reunion(团聚).

With the beautiful moon up in the sky, people sit together, enjoy the full moon, eat mooncakes and fruit, share the stories, and express the best wishes for the family members and friends who live afar.

B. 根据短文内容和所给中文提示,在空白处写出单词的正确形式。每空限填一词。

Every one of us, rich or poor, should at {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(至少,不少于) have one or two good friends. Your friends will listen to you when you speak, will {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(真正地,确实地) care about you when you' re sick, and will be together with you in your journey through life.

Everyone needs friends. {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(没有) friends, life will be boring. How can we find a good friend and get on well with each other? Here is some {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(建议).

◆Make friends with {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (某人) who is easy to get along with.

◆You should make friends with a person who has something in {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(有相同特征) with you.

◆Friends should be {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(能够) to help each other. Give your friend a hand when he or she is in trouble.

◆You need to {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(相信) in each other. This is the most important thing in a friendship.

◆Friends may have a quarrel sometimes. If this {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (发生,出现), don't let your quarrel last too long. Try to make up with your friends as soon as {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (可能的).

Friendship is a kind of treasure in our life. It's like a bottle of wine: the longer it is kept, the better it will be.

 阅读下列短文,从下面每小题的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

A player recently bought himself a two-meter-long golden cudgel (金箍棒) after playing the video game Black Myth: Wukong. It is similar in every de tail to the magic stick from the game.

The stick is now a popular product on Taobao and Tmall. On these platforms, other products co-branded with the game are also selling well.

Black Myth is China's first AAA video game. Since it came out on August 20, it has taken the gaming world by storm. It sold 10 million copies within the first three days. This makes it one of the fastest-selling video games.

Beyond that, the game has had a "Black Myth" effect across several industries. Sales of home video game consoles (游戏机) have increased greatly from last year. Other gaming-related goods like laptops, keyboards, mice and headphones have all seen big increases in sales.

Moreover, its success has led to a travel boom in parts of China. Many scenes in the game are from real places. Players want to follow their hero and visit the same places. As a result, several sites have reported increased tourist activity. Some have even seen ticket sales three times higher than before. For example, the Yuhuang Temple in Shanxi Province, has become one of the most popular tourist destinations in China. Large number s of visitors go there to see its famous coloured sculptures (彩塑) from the Jin, Yuan and Ming dynasties.

阅读下短文,从方框内所列选项中,选出最佳选项填入对应空白处,使短文通顺、连贯。(选项中有一项为多余。

When you study, the first thing to consider is whether you understand the information, and the second is how you will remember it. Some of you perhaps think you know all about that, right? After all (毕竟), you've been studying for years. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} The advice is for all of you.

First of all, have a plan. You can make a plan for a week or for a longer time. If you're studying for an important exam, you should make a long-term plan.{#blank#}2{#/blank#}If it doesn't, change your plan in time.

Next, think about your environment. Make sure the place for studying is comfortable with enough light and fresh air, not too hot or too cold. If you think you do it better with music, you can put some music on and see if it's true.{#blank#}3{#/blank#}But for other people, it can make it harder to concentrate (集中注意力).

Third, take breaks while studying. You can plan your study time in periods (时间段) with breaks in between. Some experts advise you to take a 10-minute break after 30 minutes of studying.{#blank#}4{#/blank#}During your short break, you can treat yourself to something like green tea, but I wouldn't suggest chocolate because sugar can make it harder to concentrate.

Finally, think about what you do when you're studying.{#blank#}5{#/blank#}If that works for you, then great! However, I suggest writing notes while studying because it helps your mind process the information better!

A. But there's always something else for your improvement.

B. Some people work better with music playing.

C. And you need to check if it works from time to time.

D. Some people just read through their books and mark important parts with a pencil.

E. If you study for too long without a break, your mind won't work as well as before.

F. But do you have to take breaks?
