河南省驻马店市上蔡县第一初级中学2021-2022学年九年级上学期期末考试英语试题 学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________ 一、阅读单选 I went to London with my parents during the summer vacation. We spent ten days there so that we could visit all the places of interest in the city. On the first day we just rested in the hotel in the morning and visited the London Eye in the afternoon. On the second day we visited the Palace of Westminster and Tower Bridge. We visited other places in the next eight days and enjoyed ourselves a lot. I spent my summer vacation with my grandparents in the countryside and I had a good time. Living in the countryside used to be inconvenient, but I’m glad that many things have changed. For example, the roads are flat and wide. And there are several big parks and hospitals. To my surprise, my grandparents even have learned to use the computer and surf the Internet! My hometown is a small town near the sea. I used to visit it because the air was fresh. But I was surprised when I visited my hometown this summer. The sky there was gray and most of the people there wore masks (口罩) on the street. Someone told me that there was a big factory in the town and it polluted both air and water. I was sad to hear that. I used to go traveling during the summer vacation, but this year I just stayed at home because my little cousin came. He was really a cute boy. I played with him and taught him many things such as playing basketball and cooking. We also went swimming. And in the swimming pool, he was my teacher! He stayed at my home for twenty days and I expect to see him again next summer. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案，并将其标号填入题前括号内。 1．Jane spent ________ days enjoying herself in London.A．2 B．5 C．8 D．10 2．Alice’s grandparents live in ________ A．a big city B．a small town C．the countryside D．the suburbs 3．Maria was ________ to see the changes in her hometown.

Because of his story of success, he has become an example to many young people. Michael Ha was born in a very poor family in 1994. His parents worked in Vietnam（越南） before they moved to Britain in 1980. They couldn’t find work in Britain because they spoke little English. The whole family had to live on benefits（救济金） and they lived in a small house in Hackney—a poor area in East London. Growing up was not easy for Michael, but he never gave up. At the age of 10, he set his heart on going to Cambridge University. It was not easy, either. Michael studied at a school, which used to be called “the worst school” in Britain. However, young Michael made up his mind to try his best, no matter what kind of school he was studying at. The smart boy studied very hard and did well in every subject at school. Once he made a bet (打赌) with his friend to learn further math. As a result, after spending just four months teaching himself from a textbook, he got an A in AS-level further math（高等数学）. Now Michael is a medical student at St. John’s College, Cambridge and has just won an award for his excellent grades. He hopes he will be an inspiration for other young people from disadvantaged backgrounds. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案，并将其标号填入题前括号内。 6．When was Michael born? A．In 1994. B．In 1980. C．In 1990.

First of all, successful language learners are independent（独立自主的） learners. They don’t depend on books or teachers. They find their own ways to learn the language. Instead of waiting for the teachers to explain, they try to find methods and rules by themselves. They’re good guessers who look for clues (线索) and get their own ideas. When they guess wrong, they guess again. They try to learn from their mist
