Somebody mentions hard-work; others suggest knowledge, love and luck.If you arrange the 26 English letters alphabetically(按字母表的顺序)and use numbers to represent each of them, for example, 1 for a, 2 for b, 3 for c, you can change an English word into a number. So hard-work becomes 8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11=98, meaning 98 is its mark; knowledge: 11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5=96, while love: 12+15+22+5=54, and luck: 12+21+3+11=47, a small mark. None of these words can give one a full mark. What about money or prayer(祈祷)? They cant, either.Then what else? Dont be worried. You can always find an answer to a problem in your life, when you change your way of looking at things or doing things, or your attitude(态度).Yes, attitude is the word. See for yourself: attitude:1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5=100，a full mark.Different attitudes lead to different courses of life. Most times people hope for a better life. It is possible that one will have a change for the better after one has changed ones attitude.When you change your manner and became friendly towards others, youll meet more smiling faces towards you. In the same way, if you take a positive(积极地)attitude towards failure(失败), youll find its also rewarding though it has caused you losses.31 In the writers opinion, what is the most important thing in a persons life?AHard-work.BKnowledge.CMoney.DAttitude.32 According to the passage, if you meet with problems, the best way out is to _.Aask for help from othersBsay your prayers to GodCchange your attitudeDtry maths-solving methods33 From the passage we can learn that _. Adifferent attitudes come from different courses of life Bmathematics can solve every problem easily in our daily life Cfailure sometimes can bring you good if you take a positive attitude Dnone of the English words except “attitude” equals to 100 or moreBSixteen years ago a boy gave me an important gift. It was a smile.It was the early autumn of my first year at a middle school, and my old school was far away.As a result, no one knew who I was. I was very lonely, and afraid to make friends with anyone.Every time I heard the other students talking and laughing, I felt my heart break. I couldnt talk with anyone about my problems. Then one day, my classmates talked happily with their friends, but I sat at my desk unhappily as usual. At that moment, a boy entered the classroom. I didnt know who he was. He passed me and then turned back. He looked at me, with a smile.Suddenly, I felt the touch of something bright and friendly. It made me feel happy, lively and warm. That smile changed my life. I started to talk with other students and made friends. Day by day, I became closer to everyone in my class. The boy with the lucky smile has become my best friend now.One day I asked him why he smiled, but he couldnt remember smiling at me! It doesnt matter because all the dark days have gone. I believe that the world is what you think it is. If you think it lonely, you might always be alone. So smile at world and it will smile back.34 When did the writer get the gift?

DBecause it made the writer feel happy, lively and warm.36 Where does she now think her feeling of unhappiness came from? AFrom her old school.BFrom her parents. CFrom herself.DFrom her classmate at the new school.CA young man was getting ready to finish school. For a long time he had looked forward to getting a car. He knew his father could well afford it, so he told him that was all he wanted.Then on the morning of his graduation(毕业), his father called him into his private study. His father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son, and told him how much he loved him. He handed his son a beautiful gift box. Surprised, the young man opened the box and found a lovely Bible(圣经)with his name on it. Angrily, he raised his voice to his father and said, “With all your money you give me a Bible?” He then rushed out of the house, leaving the Bible.Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business. He had a beautiful home and a wonderful family, but realizing his father was very old, he thought perhaps he should go to see him. He had not seen him since that graduation day. Before he could make arrangements(安排), he received a phone telling him his father had passed away. He had to come home immediately and take care of the things that his father left his father left him.When he began to search through his fathers important papers, he saw the still new Bible, just as he had left it years ago. He opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. As he was reading , a car key with a tag(标牌)dropped from the back of the Bible. On the tag was the date of his graduation, and the words”PAID IN FULL”. Sadness and regret filled his heart.37 The underlined word “that” in Paragraph means_.Aa carBa boxCa BibleDa phone38 The young man was angry on the morning of his graduation because _.Ahis father couldnt afford a carBhe had to stay in his studyChe thought he only got a BibleDhis father spent all the money39 Which of the following isnt mentioned in the third paragraph?

Heres our advice to herand to all kids who feel lonely sometimes.Its hard when a best friend isnt aroundmaybe because she moved to a different school or a different class. You may feel lonely at break or lunchtime. You want to have new friends. But how do you make them? Maybe it seems like everybody else already has their friends. But remember, theres always room for more friends. Start by looking around your classroomthink about which kids youd like to play with at break. Look for chances to say hi to them, smile, and be friendly. Offer to share something or express your appreciation(欣赏)to them. Invite someone to play with you or say “Do you want to sit here?” in the lunchroom. When youre at break, walk over to kids you want to play with. act friendly, and say “Hi, can l play, too?” or just join in. If you have trouble doing this or if youre feeling shy, ask your teacher to help you make new friends. Teachers are usually pretty good at matching up friends. The best way to make friends is to be a friend. Be kind, be friendly, share, say nice things, offer to helpand pretty soon, youll have one, or two, or even more new friends. You might still miss that special best friend. But when you see each other, you can share something you didnt have before she left: You can introduce her to your new friends!41 This text is written for .AteachersBparentsCstudentsDvisitors42 According to the writer, some kids feel lonely at break because they .Ahave trouble with their studiesBdont have their best friends aroundCneed their parents to be with themDare too young to look after themselves43 The underlined word this in Paragraph 4 refers to(指的是) .Asharing your ideasBtalking before many peopleCstudying better at schoolDdeveloping new friendship44 Some kids need help from teachers to make friends because .Athey miss their old friends a lotBthey have no time to stay with othersCteachers know who wants a new friendDthey are shy or not good at making friends45 The expression “feeling left out means“ ”in Chinese.A受冷落B被调侃C挨批评D遭攻击 班 级 姓 名 学 号 密封线20102011学年第一学期期中测试九年级英语答题纸 2010.11第卷（共60分）一、单项选择(共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分)从A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，将答案填入下表内。题号12345678910答案题号11121314151617181920答案二、完形填空(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，将答案填入下表内。题号21222324252627282930答案三、阅读理解(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)阅读下面短文，从各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项，将答案填入下表内。题号31323334353637383940答案题号4142434445答案第卷（共60分）四、阅读表达(共10小格；每小格1分，满分10分)阅读下面短文，在表格内的空白处填入合适的答案(每格限填一词)How do you feel when you have to make a speech in front of class? What about when you go to a birthday party? Do you get really shy?Shyness means feeling nervous or frightened when youre around other people. Experts (专家) have found that more than 80 percent of middle school students feel afraid to be the centre of attention. Some kids are born shy. Some become shy later because of their life experiences.Its OK if it takes you a while to feel yourself again when you go to a new place or meet new people. In fact, everybody gets a little shy sometimes. Its just a case of how much.Most people have red faces and talk in broken sentences when they get shy. But some become so shy that they wont go to a restaurant because they are too nervous to order and pay the bill (账单). Some are afraid of meeting new people, so they seldom go outside. This kind of shyness can be bad for a person.If shyness doesnt stop you from doing something you want to do, being shy isnt a very big problem. Some experts say shy people are quieter and cleverer because they think more and talk less. Shy people are also good at working with others because they think more for other people. Some great people in history were shy, too.You see, being shy isnt all bad. But remember not to let good chances pass by just because of it! If you have to sing a song at a birthday party or practice your spoken English in front of others, just do it! Theres nothing to be afraid of.ShynessMeaningTo feel 46 or frightenedCausesTo be the 47 of attentionTo be born shyTo have 48 experiencesEffects49 effectsTo have red 50 To talk in 51 sentencesTo be 52 of meeting new peopleGood effectsTo be quieter and 53 To be good at 54 with othersAdviceTo take hold of (抓住) good 55 五、词汇(共16小题；每小题1分，满分16分)A)根据句子意思，用括号中所给词的正确形式填空，每空填一词。56 It was (difficulty) for human begins to predict weather in the past.57 Thank you for your (value) help and practical advice.58 She will go abroad for (far) study next month.59 Mind your table manners.
