山西农业大学附属中学2016届九年级上学期英语期末考试试卷

阅读下列短文,从每小题所给的A.B.C三个选项中选出一个最佳选项。

    Traveling to every part of the world gets easier, but how well do we know and understand each other. Here's a simple test. Imagine you are planning to hold a meeting at four o'clock. What time should you expect your foreign business friends to arrive? If they are Germans, they'll arrive on time. If they are Americans, they'll probably be 15 minutes early. If they are Englishmen, they'll be 15 minutes late, and you should allow up to an hour for the Italians.

    The British seemed to think since the English language was widely used in the world, people would always understand what they do. However, they found they were completely wrong. For example, the British are happy to have a business lunch and discuss business matters and have a drink during the meal. The Japanese prefer not to work while eating. Lunch is a time for them to relax and get to know each other and they don't drink at lunchtime. The Germans like to talk business before dinner. The French like to eat first and talk afterwards. They have to be well fed and watered before they discuss anything.

(1)、What do the Germans prefer when they go to a meeting?

A、They prefer to be on time. B、They prefer to arrive very early. C、They prefer to arrive very late.
(2)、According to the text, if a group of Englishmen, Americans and Italians hold a meeting, who will be the last to arrive?

A、The Englishmen. B、The Americans. C、The Italians.
(3)、What do the Japanese like to do at lunchtime?

A、arrive on time and talk business during the meal B、arrive 15 minutes late and talk business after the meal C、arrive a few minutes late and discuss business during the meal

A、different countries have different cultures in different parts of the world B、the Germans are more serious and have good living habits C、the Italians are careless people and they are never on time for everything

Have you ever wondered what animals are thinking when you see them? Do you feel happy when you see a cute dog, but do they feel the same way? It's hard to tell what animals are thinking because they have no ability to speak like us.

Humans have many different feelings, but it's difficult to understand what animals are feeling. We might think we know our pets the best because we spend a lot of time with them. Some people have dogs as pets because they are friendly to us, even love us. But love could just be a human feeling. Professor Kim Bard did an experiment to test pets' feelings. It turns out that some dogs show the same feeling when their owner pretends (假装) to cry, but not with strangers. However, it's harder for cats to work out.

Other animals, like giraffes and whales, also experience great sadness when someone in their group dies. Nowadays, people are starting to consider their well-being more. In the UK, new legislation (立法) means all animals will be considered in law as sentient living things, even tiny insects. Research shows they can feel a degree of feelings, such as being happy, sad, angry, or frightened.

Dr Barbara J King says, "If we understand how deeply animals can feel feelings, do we really need zoos around the world? This is a question." Understanding animal feelings is important because it helps us treat them in a proper way.

"How are you? " is a nice question. It's a friendly way that people in the United States greet each other. But when a person say "How are you ? ", he hopes to hear the answer "Fine," though the person's friend isn't fine. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}They are common ways of saying"Hello"and "Hi".

Sometimes people also don't say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone asks, "Do you agree?" the other person may be thinking, "No, I don't agree. I think you are wrong."{#blank#}2{#/blank#}It's a nicer way to say that you don't agree with someone.

{#blank#}3{#/blank#}For example,when a person wants to finish talking with other people on the phone,he may say "I have to go now." Sometimes he often gives an excuse." Someone is at the door", "Something is burning" and so on.{#blank#}4{#/blank#}.It's a polite way to stop a conversation and it doesn't hurt the other person's feelings.{#blank#}5{#/blank#}And it's a part of the game of language.

A.People don't always say exactly what they are thinking.

B.It's interesting when people want to finish talking.

C.I don't think so .

D.But it doesn't sound very polite,so they may say,"I' m not so sure."

E.The reason is that "How are you?" isn't really a question and "fine" isn't really an answer.

F.The excuse may be real or it may not.

G.People often greet with"How are you ?"

 The nature park is a good place for animals. There is a quite important nature park {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (name) Mai Po Marshes. Every winter, hundreds of birds fly here. They stay here {#blank#}2{#/blank#} a few months because there is enough water and food. Many of the birds are in danger. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (protect) them, the reserve won't allow visitors to come any time. If you want to visit the Mai Po Marshes, you have to call or email theWWF HK. It can offer people the chances to have a trip with {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (they) friends at weekends. You can take photos and go bird-watching.

 阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

①It is known that China is the first country to grow, produce and drink tea. 

②Although there are hundreds of kinds of Chinese tea, we can find several basic kinds. For example, green tea has the longest history with the largest production, such as longjingand maofeng. But too much green tea is bad for sleeping. Black tea is named for its special tea leaves. It tastes sweet and is good for health. Oolong tea which is mainly produced in Fujian, Guangdong and Taiwan, is most famous for dahongpao. This orange-red tea comes with an unusual smell. 

③Tea is important in Chinese people's daily life. They drink tea everywhere. It's also the tradition in China to make tea for friends. Recently, taking a break for "stone-boiled" tea(围炉煮茶)with friends is a fashion. It shows tea is more popular with Chinese young people. 

④Tea has a great influence on the world, too. More and more foreigners(外国人) love Chinese tea. "What Chinese tea has brought to me means a lot to me. " As a Chinese tea lover, Sang, an American man, has taught about tea since 2012. "As I teach my friends, most of them get the art of tea and love it. I want to share Chinese tea with more people, and at the same time share the friendly Chinese friends and the colorful Chinese culture. "

⑤So you see, a cup of tea connects different places, connects you and me, connects the West and China, and shows the character and life of Chinese people.
