Dear Mr. Smith,
I'm Li Ming, the monitor of Class Five, Grade Nine. We all appreciate you for your hard work. Now I'd like to share something with you about our class. First, could you speak English more slowly so that we can follow you Second,too much written work makes us so busy that we have no time to think about it. If you give us more chances to have activities and make us speak more often in class, it would be better. Finally, too much grammar makes us really bored. Would you like to try to explain it in an active way In all,if you can make some small changes, we can learn English better.I hope that we can have a good year together.
Yours,Li Ming

How do we know the time A clock, a watch or a mobile phone can help us. However, many years ago
there were no clocks and knowing the time was not so easy. Over the centuries people have developed different
ways of telling the time.
About 5,500 years ago, the Egyptians invented the sun clock. This was a tall stone building. Its shadow (影
子 ) showed the movement of the sun, so people were able to know midday. About 3,500 years ago, the
Egyptians made sundial(日晷 ), another kind of clock, to tell the time. It was smaller than the sun clock and
could let people know the time for half a day. On cloudy days or at night it was impossible to tell the time with
3
{#{QQABZYSEoggIABAAAAgCAwEQCACQkBECCCoORBAAoAAAwQNABCA=}#}
a sun clock or a sundial. Water clocks were the first clocks not to use the sun. The idea is simple. Water flows
(流动) from one bottle to another. When the water reaches certain level, it shows the hours. The Egyptians used
water clocks about 3, 400 years ago. These clocks were popular in the Middle East and China. But they failed to
make people know the exact time.
In the 13th century, the mechanical clock was invented. This was more exact, but it was expensive to make
one. Over the next few centuries it was developed. For example, springs (发条) were added around 1500. This
enabled people to get the correct time and allowed clocks to be smaller. In 1927, the first quartz clock was
developed. Clocks became cheaper to build. It’s also cheaper for ordinary people to own a clock. People began
depending on them more and more to run businesses, markets and so on. More recently, in 1956, came the
digital clock. And nowadays satellites send our mobile phones the time to the exact second.
There has been a lot of progress in timekeeping. Clocks are always changing but some things never change.
Many of us still have trouble getting out of bed on time and not being late for school or work.
34. According to the passage, we can’t use a ________ to tell the time on a rainy day.
A. water clock B. sun clock C. digital clock D. mechanical clock
35. How many kinds of clocks are mentioned in the passage
A. Four. B. Five. C. Six. D. Seven.
36. Which of the following shows the structure (结构) of the passage
(①=paragraph 1 ②=paragraph 2, …)
A. B. C. D.
37. What does the passage mainly talk about
A. The importance of time. B. The development of timekeeping.
C. The inventions of clocks. D. The history of a digital clock.

A couple often went shopping together. They both liked teacups. One day they saw a beautiful teacup in a
store. As they picked it up, it suddenly spoke.
“I haven't always been a teacup. Once I was red clay(陶土). My master rolled(揉，搓) me over and over
and I shouted, but he only smiled.”
“Then I was placed on a rolling wheel and suddenly I went around and around. ‘Stop!’ I cried, but the
master only nodded.”
“Then he put me in the oven(烤炉 ). I had never felt so hot. I could see him through the opening and I
could read his words, ‘Not yet.’”
“Finally the door opened, and he took me out and put me on a shelf. Then he brushed me and put me back
into the oven. This time it was twice as hot. I begged. I cried. I could see him through the opening shaking his
head, saying, ‘Not yet.’”
“Then I knew there wasn't any hope. I was ready to give up, but the door opened and I was taken out and
placed on a shelf. Later he handed me a mirror and said, ‘Look at yourself.’ I said, ‘That can't be me. It's
beautiful!’ ”
“ ‘I want you to remember,’ he said, ‘if I had just left you without rolling, you'd have dried up. If I had
stopped rolling you around on the wheel, you would have been out of shape. If I hadn't put you in the oven, you
4
{#{QQABZYSEoggIABAAAAgCAwEQCACQkBECCCoORBAAoAAAwQNABCA=}#}
would have broken. If I hadn't brushed you all over, you would not have any color in your life. If I hadn't put
you back in that oven for the second time, you wouldn't be kept for very long because the hardness would not
have held. Now you are a finished product. You are what I had in mind when I first started with you.’”
38. Which of the following shows the right process(过程) of making the teacup
a. It was put into the oven for the first time.
b. It was put on a rolling wheel and went around.
c. The master took it out and brushed it all over.

Improvements in technology often happen overnight. Some gadgets get smaller and faster. Others are
replaced by newer things like smartphones. They can do hundreds of things. Here are some old gadgets that
people used to use.
Call me
Do you have a landline at home These are phones that people plug (插入) into their living room walls.
Mobile phones didn’t use to be so common at that time, so most families had a landline. But landlines only
worked at home. What did people do when they were outside and needed to call someone They looked for a
pay phone! Then, most people had their own mobile phones and many homes no longer had landlines.
____▲____
People today store plenty of information online, or on SD cards. But in the 1980s and 1990s, people used
to use floppy disks(软盘). The first floppy disks were large, expensive, and not very useful — each disk could
store just 175 KB of information! Later, floppy disks got smaller and better. But even the best ones could only
hold 1.44 MB. You would need three or four disks just for one song, and about 22,000 disks to match the
storage (储存空间) available on a 32 GB phone!
Picture This
It’s easy to take photos today. People often have thousands just on their phones! But photos used to be
expensive, and people took fewer of them. To take a photo, you had to buy a roll of film. This allowed you to
take about 30 photos. After finishing the roll, you left it at a shop. The shop developed the photos to make them
be seen, which you could collect after a few days.
Technology changes all the time, and the gadgets we use today will one day be old. What do you think will
be next to disappear
42. What does the underlined word “gadgets” mean in Paragraph 1
A. Toys. B. Tools. C. Games. D. Phones.

B. The first floppy disks cost a lot of money.
C. It was convenient to take photos with film.
D. Technology changes all the time and it always takes place overnight.

Confucius’ Life and Thought
Confucius (551--479 BC) was a great thinker and teacher who was full of experiences in the
Spring and Autumn Period of China. He was born in Qufu, a capital of the state of Lu ( part of
Shandong). He acted as an official(官员) there. But he was perhaps a better thinker than he was
an official and he ended up having to leave the state of Lu. He spent 13 years travelling around
the other states, spreading his ideas. And he tried to teach people that peace was very important
for a healthy society. However, it was not until the rule of Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty (156
--87 BC) that his ideas were finally put into practice. In his last few years, he returned to Qufu where he spent
the rest of his life teaching. His teachings were recorded by his followers in a book called Lunyu.
Confucius' teachings formed the base of Chinese thought. Confucius thought everyone should develop
virtues (美德) and always do the right thing. Confucius' thought is considered to be the necessity of Chinese
culture and Eastern thought.
To help people understand how to behave towards others, he taught five virtues accepted by all Chinese.
They are ren (kindness, charity), yi (fairness), li ( ceremony, tradition), zhi (knowledge), and xin ( trust).
Another virtue is xiao. xiao is the duties a person has to their parents. It means loving, respecting, obeying(服从)
and taking care of one’s parents in their old age. xiao forms the base of a peaceful society. And he is the final
goal according to his thought. It means social peace.
Here's one of Confucius' famous sayings, “Do not do to others as You do not wish to be done to You.”
Another saying of his is “In the company of two others, I Can always find one worthy of being my teacher.”,
which means we can always learn something from other people.
It is clear that Confucius' thought will continue to be a necessary part of Chinese culture. And it will
continue to do something good to the development of china and even the whole world.
