【題目】A few years ago national attention was fixed on a deep, dark cave in the mountains near where I live now. A team had entered the cave to do some research. Although every precaution had been taken to make it safe, one young man was separated from the team and lost in the depths of the cave.
For several days a rescue team worked around the clock, searching almost everywhere in the underground cave. With each passing hour chance of finding the young man inside the cave became smaller, and people had a lot of guesses. Perhaps he had simply run away. Or maybe he had stumbled out some other entrance and was now lost in the mountains. Or perhaps he was already... well, nobody wanted to say it. But everybody thought it. Everybody, that is, except the young man’s parents.
“ That wasn’t a choice in our opinion,” the young man’s mother said. “ Finally we would find him--safe and alive. We were certain of that.”
There was little reason to those who were familiar with the cave said it had been completely searched-several times. Common sense suggested that time was running out and that other choices needed to be considered--like when to say “enough”.
But like Kris Kringle says in his famous book A Miracle on 34th Street, “ Faith is believing in something even when common sense tells you not to do.” And the young man’s parents had faith. They wouldn’t give up, and they wouldn’t let anyone else give up, either. And sure enough, the young man was found--hungry, thirst and afraid, but healthy.
How did the young man manage to stay a live in the cave?
“ I ‘ve never stopped believing that someone would find me ,” said the young man.
【1】The young man got lost probably because___________.
A. he got separated from the teamB. he wanted to enter the cave alone
C. he did research in the cave aloneD. he had an important discovery
【2】What does the underlined word “ That” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Staying inside the cave.B. Giving up searching.
C. Making more guesses.D. Looking for the man in the mountains.
【3】Which can be the best title for the text?
A. The Power of BelievingB. A Dangerous Cave
C. The Way to Stay Alive in a CaveD. Parents’ Love
【4】Why did the parents and the son think “he” can still be alive? Why can you learn from the story?

【題目】 Have you ever hiccupped (打嗝)in a quiet room full of people? Have you ever hiccupped so hard that you had to stop what you were doing? The hiccups is a problem that almost everyone has experienced.
The reasons for getting hiccups
People get hiccups for some reasons. Hiccups might result from eating or drinking too much or too quickly. A sudden change in the stomach’s temperature, such as drinking hot water immediately after drinking cold water, may also cause hiccups. They may even happen because of being excited or being under a lot of stress.
Making hiccups go away
Ideas on how to stop hiccups have been created, shared, and tried for years. However, what works for one person may not work for everyone. Perhaps the most common method people use is to hold their breath for a few seconds. If this doesn’t work, you can try swallowing (吞下)hard while holding your breath. There are also some strange-sounding ways, like drinking a lot of water. Someone might even try to scare away hiccups.
Ideas for curing (治愈)hiccups often include things found in the kitchen. Some people put sweet and sour things into water. Many people believe that eating some sugar can make hiccups go away.
Award-winning method
In 2010, a young girl named Mallory Kievman couldn’t make her hiccups go away. None of the ideas that she knew worked for her. So she decided to find her own cure for hiccups. She knew that sweet and sour things were commonly used to cure hiccups, and she knew that swallowing hard could also help. She decided to use the two ideas to make a special lollipop(棒棒糖). She experimented with different things in the kitchen. After she failed many times, Mallory invented a lollipop that worked by putting water, sugar and vinegar (醋) together. She named her invention Hiccupops.
Mallory wanted to find out whether her lollipops would help others. She gave her lollipops to friends. Most of them were cured of their hiccups after eating the lollipops.
Mallory entered a competition with her lollipop and won three awards for her creative idea.
【1】Why does the writer begin the passage with the ideas in Paragraph 1?
A. To make the time of getting hiccups clear.
B. To suggest what it feels like to have hiccups.
C. To explain to us why people have trouble curing hiccups.
D. To interest us in a subject that many people have experienced.
【2】In which situation will you probably get a hiccup? .
A. You are going to take an exam without preparation.
B. You drink a bowl of soup slowly.
C. You swallow some medicine.
D. You eat a Hiccupop.
【3】The way people use most to stop hiccups is

A. It was not easy for her to invent her lollipops.
B. The ingredients (材料)of her lollipops aren’t easy to find.
C. Her lollipops can help everyone get away from hiccups.

【題目】閱讀并回答問題。
Every day when I enter the classroom, I will take a look at the wall beside my seat. You will find nothing special about this old wall if you just look at it. But for the students in my class, it is a special wall. Take a good look at it, and you will get to know the real feelings and thoughts of us, the 9th graders.
In the middle of the wall, there is a big “VICTORY”. It was written in pencil. I guess it must have been written by someone who got a good mark in an exam.
A little higher above the formulas(方程式), there is a poem. It only has two sentences. It reads: All those sweet memories have disappeared. Like tears(眼淚) dropping in the heavy rain.
Oh! It must have been written at the end of the last term in middle school. Classmates had to leave school and good friends had to part(分離). What a sad poem!
If you “explore(瀏覽)” the wall more carefully, you will find many other interesting things, like a crying face, or a happy face, and other patterns(圖案). There are still some patterns and letters that I can’t understand, but they all show the feelings of the students who drew them.
For years, the wall has witnessed(見證) all the things that have happened in the classroom. I don’t know how it will be next year, two years from now, or even ten years from now. But I hope more smiling faces will be drawn on it.
【1】Where is the big “VICTORY”?(No more than six words)
___________________________________________________________________
【2】When was the poem written?
______________________________________________________________________
【3】What does the writer think of the poem?(no more than three words)
______________________________________________________________________
【4】What do the patterns and letters show?

【題目】Learning to love reading
Taking public transportation in the United States, you can often see people reading books on their way to school or work. But in China, I rarely (很少地) see people reading during their free time.
Are people’s attitudes toward reading different here? Not really. Data (數(shù)據(jù)) released by Amazon China in December 2017 show that Chinese people still read a lot. They simply prefer e-books over regular books.
However, other data show that reading is still more popular in the us than in China. Is there a reason for this difference? I’m not sure. What I do know is that China has a rich history of literature (文學(xué)). From classic novels like Romance of the Three Kingdoms (《三國演義》) to the modern science-fiction books The Three-Body Problem (《三體》), and many other styles, Chinese authors have created many fantastic written works.
Perhaps the difference starts from childhood. Reading textbooks and doing homework can make you feel quite tired. By the time you finish it, you might not feel like reading for fun. Chinese students definitely (肯定) have to read more and do more homework than US students. So it’s no wonder that they might not want to read much in their spare time.
But learning to love reading can be great. Reading can open doors to places, people and ideas that you cannot imagine. Even just a single book has the power to change your own personal beliefs and attitudes. Where will your next book take you?
【1】From Paragraph 1, what do we know about people in the US?
A. Most people take public transportation to work.
B. Students have homework to do on their way to school.
C. Many of them have the habit of reading.
D. They read books that are left behind on public transportation.
【2】Chinese authors have created many fantastic written works including ________.
A. classic novelsB. science-fiction books
C. realistic novelsD. All above
【3】Which of the following is TRUE?
A. Chinese people’s attitudes toward reading have changed.
B. Chinese people prefer e-books to regular books now.
C. Chinese people never read in their spare time.
D. Chinese people bought the most books from Amazon China in 2017.
【4】Why is reading less popular in China, according to the author?
A. Because Chinese people prefer to watch plays instead of reading.
B. Because it’s hard to choose what to read.
C. Because Chinese people already read enough books during their childhoods.
D. Because People’s childhood experiences may influence their reading habits.
【5】According to the author, reading books can ________.
A. help you learn more about schoolworkB. take too much of your time
C. make you feel tiredD. change your view of the world
