山东省新泰市2020年九年级英语第二次模拟考试试卷

    Many of us enjoy watching animals in the world. But do you know they can teach us?

    Geese(大雁), for example, teach us a very good lesson about 1. In the fall. Canada's geese fly to the warm south to get away from Canada's cold winter. They lift off in no order. Yet 2 they form a V shape, with one bird leading the group.

    This V shape allows geese to 3 energy. When the front bird moves its wings up and down, the resulting force of the air lifts the next one. This continues down the line. The bird in front has the 4 job. When it gets tired, it moves behind, and 5 bird moves into the lead By 6 the role, the group can travel great distances (距离).Geese flying in a V shape can fly 70 percent farther without rest than birds flying alone.

    7 the long flying travel, geese communicate with one another. They honk (鸣叫)to encourage the birds up front to 8 the speed. They also cheer each other 9 working toward a common goal.

    What have we learned from the lovely geese's experiences and skills? 10 together! Whether it is our personal lives or our jobs, we need other people. We need the spirit of teamwork!

    There are many different kinds of love. For me there is a kind of special love, which I call "soft love." Now I'd like to thank my parents for giving me so much soft love, especially my mother. She has a special way of communicating with me.

    My mother works at a university as a teacher. She is very strict with students. She devotes (把…….奉献) herself to her work, all of her students love her. At home she is both a good wife and a good mother. She is strict with me too, so I am afraid of her. There is one thing that I will never forget. At the end of the second term of senior one, my scores were lower than ever before, I was very worried about it. My mother came to my room and saw the report card at that time, I was afraid that she would scold (责骂)me as usual. But surprisingly, she left the room without any remarks (话语), I was frightened.

    The next day, when I got up, I found a letter. I opened it, it was written by her, "Dear daughter, I know that studying is hard work, but you won't give it up, will you? I believe that you can be the best. Now I want to give you three pieces of advice. I. Where there is a will there is a way. 2. Practice makes perfect. 3. It's no use crying over spilt milk." After reading the letter, I couldn't say a word. So I wrote, "Mother, I can do it. Thank you!"

    I think that the love between my mother and I is special love that brings us even closer!

    Languages are powerful, sometimes more than one can imagine. Most recently an ancient saying "山川异域，风月同天" has deeply touched the Chinese people, which means even though the landscapes(风景)are different, we share the wind and moon under the same sky.

    The saying was printed on packages(包裹)of masks sent to Wuhan, Hubei Province from Japan when the novel coronavirus broke out in China. On the packages, there were also el Province Chinese and Japanese national flags, as well as encouraging Chinese characters "加油! 中国". It's not only the friendship behind the masks, but also the special beauty of the ancient Chinese language.

    Although it is written in ancient Chinese language, the saying is from a Japanese prince. The ancient saying first appeared on the frocks(袈裟)which were sent to the monks in the Chinese Tang dynasty.

    The Chinese monk Jianzhen was touched by these Chinese characters at that time and decided to start his journey to Japan. He tried six times in 11 years before finally arriving in the country and then helped a lot with the development of Japan Jianzhen was known as the messenger(信使)of culture between China and Japan. He was remembered by the people of both countries.

    Now once again, the Chinese are deeply touched by the meaning in the ancient saying: understanding, sharing, and support. It feels like walking into the house from outdoors in the freezing winter and having a cup or hot tea. The warmth is inside.

    Wearing a mask while sleeping at home sounds a little crazy. But Wu Keying did during the novel coronavirus outbreak(爆发). "I eared that I would be infected(感染). Now I know it's not necessary to do so. But I am still worried about when the epidemic will end," said the-13-year-old girl from Chengdu, Sichuan province Being stuck inside makes her feel anxious.

    In fact, many people have experienced feelings like Wu. Nearly 80 percent of people are deeply worried about the outbreak, while 40 percent strongly fear it, according to a survey G released on Jan. 27 by the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences.

    These emotions(情绪)are normal for people who are going through stressful events. According to Wang Weihua, an expert on positive psychology(积极心理学), "Some stressful reactions(反应)can help us fight the virus," Wang said, "We take more protective actions, such as wearing masks and washing hands often."

     "But if these feelings last too long, it will be bad for our mental (心理的)health, Wang added." So how can we stay positive?

    First, we should learn to accept unexpected changes in life, wrote Xiong Kewei, a psychological consultant(咨询师)at Beijing Normal University. We might learn new lessons from these changes, like respecting nature and being more responsible.

    Another useful way to stay positive is to stick to a normal routine(正常作息).

    "The key is to take good care of the body, arrange a reasonable schedule, ensure adequate(适当的)sleep and diet, and get the necessary rest and relaxation," Zhang Hong, deputy chief physician of Wuhan Mental Health Center, told China Daily.

    Note-taking is a skill that can help you do well in all your schoolwork. There are some ideas that can help you take better notes.

·   

    You'll be disorganized if you try to write down every word in class. And you might miss what the teacher is saying if you pay too much attention to getting your notes right. So just write down the most important points in class.

    Remember to ask if you miss something.

    If the teacher's going too fast, your classmates will also be happy to hear the information again. If you don't want to ask in class, see your teacher afterwards.

    Compare your notes with others

    It can help you and your friend find out mistakes and remember what you have learned. It can also help you remember information when it's time for a test.

    Copy the notes if it's necessary

    If you've scribbled(潦草书写) down notes in a hurry, you might not be able to read them later. Look over your notes when you get home, and write them again if you need to.

    Organize your notes and notebooks

Keep notes for each subject in one place. This could mean keeping a notebook or part of a notebook for each subject as you take notes in class.

    A female swimming athlete once set a goal (目标)for herself. She decided to swim across the English Channel before she retired. If she could succeed, she would be the first person in the world  did it. On that day she jumped into the sea without any hesitation (犹豫)and swam towards the opposite bank without any  . In the journey, she faced heavy fog, heavy rain and heavy waves.  she was tired, she still carried on swimming. But in the end, she gave up. And she didn't know that the opposite bank was only one mile away when she gave up.

    Later, she was  about the reason. And she said, "The reason why I gave up is that I could not see the place which I was going to reach  ." It was a great pity that one mile broke her dream.

    Since we were young  , too many success stories have been telling us about courage and persistence(坚持). But they never told us where to find  and persistence. You can only have courage when you know where your goal is. You can only manage to persist when you know where your goal is.

    And that's because when you know where your goal is, you can only prepare  well in the mind. Courage and persistence never  from the sky. They come from weighing between input and output.

    A life  goals is like a ship without a compass(指南针). It goes nowhere.

There is no courage or persistence in a life without goals.
