Write down key facts. If your teacher writes notes on the blackboard, that’s great. You can copy them or write down the most important facts of all in class. Different teachers do things differently. For example, some teachers may focus on (关注) lots of dates and facts in class, but they only write the important ones on the blackboard. Other teachers may not write anything down, but they may say something important again and again.
Ask. Don’t be afraid to ask your teacher to repeat what you’ve missed. If your teacher speaks too fast and you can’t follow what he or she is saying, you can ask him or her after class.
paring your notes with classmates’ can be good for your learning. It can also help you and your classmates correct some mistakes.
Organize. Note-taking also needs organization. Keep notes for each subject in one notebook so that you can find everything easily when a test comes.

The Double Ninth Festival is a special day for elderly people in China. The festival is on the ninth day of the ninth month of the lunar calendar.

（2022秋·浙江宁波·九年级校联考期中）“How are you ” is a nice question. It’s a friendly way that people in the United States greet each other. But “How are you ” is also a very unusual question. It’s a question that often doesn’t have an answer. The person who asks “How are you ” hopes to hear the answer “Fine.”, even if the person’s friend isn’t fine. The reason is that “How are you ” isn’t really a question and that “Fine.” isn’t really an answer. They are simply other ways of saying “Hello!” or “Hi!”.
Sometimes, people also don’t say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone asks “Do you agree ”, the other person might be thinking, “No, I disagree. I think you’re wrong...” But it isn’t very polite to disagree strongly, so the other person might say, “I’m not sure...” It’s a nice way to say that you don’t agree with someone.
People also don’t say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people. For example, many talks over the phone finish when one person says, “I’ve to go now.” Often, the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse, “Someone is at the door.”, “Something is burning on the stove.” The excuses might be real, or not. Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesn’t want to talk any more, but it isn’t polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and it doesn’t hurt the other person.
When they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, or finishing a talk, people often don’t say exactly what they are thinking. It’s an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and it’s also a part of the game of language.
9．When a person in America asks, “How are you ”, he or she wants to hear “________”.
A．Hello. B．How are you. C．Fine. D．Hi.
10．When a person says, “I’ve to go now. Someone is at the door.”, he or she may be ________.
A．giving an excuse B．hurting someone’s feeling
C．talking to a person at the door D．going to another place
11．Which one may be one of the rules of the game of language
A．Try your best to be polite. B．Agree with people all the time.
C．Always say what you mean. D．Never say exactly what you’re thinking.
12．The following statements are true EXCEPT “________”.
A．“How are you ” is not only a question, but also a way to greet.
B．It is OK to disagree with others strongly.
C．Being friendly to others and saying something politely are very important.
D．If someone says “Something is burning on the stove.” to you, maybe it means he or she doesn’t want to talk any more.

（2022秋·浙江金华·九年级校联考期中）Did you know that vocabulary (词汇) is more important than grammar If you have good vocabulary, you can communicate successfully, even if the grammar is not completely perfect.
However, one common problem is learning new words and then forgetting them. So when you want to use a new word in a conversation, you can’t remember it at that moment. Does this often happen to you The reason for this difficulty is that most students try to learn vocabulary by studying lists and dictionaries and remembering the words. But it may not work if you don’t have a very good memory.
The best way to learn vocabulary and remember the words successfully, is to learn new words and use them at once. You can do this with a very simple exercise. Every time you learn a new word, for example, from an English lesson or an article, write it down in your vocabulary notebook. Writing is more active than just reading a definition (释义). You should write the word, the definition in English or translation, one example sentence from the article or dictionary and one example sentence that you create.
Imagine you just learn the word “generous”, write in your vocabulary notebook: generous (adjective), definition—giving or willing to give freely. Example one, from the article: Thanks for paying for my dinner, you’re very generous. Example two, my example: My brother is generous because he volunteers at the animal shelter on weekends. It’s best if your example sentences are true to your life, because this creates a personal connection with the new word. The next day, read your vocabulary notebook again and try to add one more example sentence using the new word. It’s helpful for you to remember it. These two simple steps—writing the word and using it at once—help you remember and use new words.
Do you have a vocabulary notebook If not, start now.

Nobody knows who first invented it, but the umbrella was used in very ancient times. Probably the first to use it were the Chinese in the 11th century BC．

By 1680, the umbrella appeared in France and later in England.
By the eighteenth century, the umbrella was used against rain throughout most of Europe. Umbrellas have not changed much in style during all this time, though they have become much lighter in weight.

（2022秋·辽宁铁岭·九年级统考期中）It’s hard to believe that a beautiful silk dress comes from thousands of small insects! Silk is made by insects called silkworms (蚕). It takes about 5,500 silkworms to make 1 kilogram of silk. The process was discovered by the Chinese about 5,000 years ago.
How is silk made The process starts with the eggs of a certain kind of insect. The eggs are collected and kept warm. After a few days, the silkworms come out of the eggs. They are fed with leaves from mulberry trees every 30 minutes, all night and all day. The room is kept warm, and the silkworms must not be influenced by loud noises or bad smells. After a month, they start to make a cocoon (茧). After four days, the cocoon is ready.
The cocoons are heated. Then the cocoons are put into water to make the silk loose (松散的). The silk from three or four cocoons is put together and made into a thread (线). One cocoon can make a thread that is 1 kilometer long.
Finally, the silk threads are made into cloth, and the cloth is used for things like dresses and scarves. Today, silk is produced in many countries, including India and Thailand, but more than 80 percent of the world’s silk comes from China. Every year, enough silk thread is produced, which can go from the earth to the sun 300 times. People love clothes made of silk because they are very beautiful. Also, they are comfortable to wear—silk feels cool in warm weather and warm in cool weather.

（2022秋·广西河池·九年级统考期中）Last year, I went to Italy as an exchange student. Before leaving, I asked my mother what gifts I should take to the teachers and the students there. Mom said that the Chinese fan was a good choice, for China is praised as “the Fan Kingdom”. I think it’s a great idea, because it is more than a tool for cooling.

Fans of this kind were made of silk with paintings of beautiful women, birds or flowers. They were very popular with women of all ages. As for the boys, I picked the folding fans from Rongchang, a place in the west of Chongqing.

（2022秋·山东济宁·九年级统考期中）Believe it or not. My friends often come first in my heart because I want to make them happy. If anyone asks me for help, I always say “Yes!” “Can you help me with English practice ” Grace asked me on the first day after she became my deskmate. “Of course,” I replied without hesitation. Grace has been working really hard on her studies and she needed my help though I didn’t have much time left for her.
One day after school, while I was doing lots of homework, Grace’s phone call came. She complained (抱怨) a lot and it made me feel bored, but I still felt bad about saying “no”. When Grace ended the call, it was 00: 15 a. m. But I still had homework left and I wanted to sleep. This was bad for a junior high school student in Grade Three who is going to take an important exam this June.
Finally I began to cry. I felt so tired and realized that the stress had an effect on my health. I tried to get myself out. Studying is more important than other things, so Grace has to come the second. It’s now important for me to say “no”.
“Can you give me a hand ” Grace asked. “Sorry. I just have to review my chemistry notes,” I answered. “All right, it’s up to you,” she said. I felt completely relaxed when I heard her reply. Anyway, it’s not so hard to say “no” at all.
To be honest, I have felt much happier since learning to refuse. I have more time to spend on my study at present. I still try my best to help others, but sometimes I say “no” because I know everyone has a limit (极限).
61．At first the writer always said “Yes!” because ________.
A．he had nothing to do B．he was thankful for his friends
C．he replied without thinking twice D．he wanted to make his friends happy
62．What’s the meaning of the underlined word “hesitation”

63．Which is TRUE according to the passage
A．They often stayed up too late.
B．They shouldn’t help each other.
C．Grace had no time to study chemistry.
D．The writer felt completely relaxed after he said “no” to Grace.
64．What’s the best title for the text

C．Learning to Say “Yes” Is Interesting D．Helping Others Is More Important

（2022秋·浙江绍兴·九年级校联考期中）Note-taking is a skill that can help you do well in all your schoolwork. It can make you confident when you are studying. But unluckily, most students don’t know how to take notes. Here are some suggestions.
Write down key facts. If your teacher writes notes on the blackboard, that’s great. You can copy them or write down the most important facts of all in class. Different teachers do things differently. For example, some teachers may focus on (关注) lots of dates and facts in class, but they only write the important ones on the blackboard. Other teachers may not write anything down, but they may say something important again and again.
Ask. Don’t be afraid to ask your teacher to repeat what you’ve missed. If your teacher speaks too fast and you can’t follow what he or she is saying, you can ask him or her after class.
paring your notes with classmates’ can be good for your learning. It can also help you and your classmates correct some mistakes.
Organize. Note-taking also needs organization. Keep notes for each subject in one notebook so that you can find everything easily when a test comes.

（2022秋·浙江宁波·九年级校联考期中）“How are you ” is a nice question. It’s a friendly way that people in the United States greet each other. But “How are you ” is also a very unusual question. It’s a question that often doesn’t have an answer. The person who asks “How are you ” hopes to hear the answer “Fine.”, even if the person’s friend isn’t fine. The reason is that “How are you ” isn’t really a question and that “Fine.” isn’t really an answer. They are simply other ways of saying “Hello!” or “Hi!”.
Sometimes, people also don’t say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone asks “Do you agree ”, the other person might be thinking, “No, I disagree. I think you’re wrong...” But it isn’t very polite to disagree strongly, so the other person might say, “I’m not sure...” It’s a nice way to say that you don’t agree with someone.
People also don’t say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people. For example, many talks over the phone finish when one person says, “I’ve to go now.” Often, the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse, “Someone is at the door.”, “Something is burning on the stove.” The excuses might be real, or not. Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesn’t want to talk any more, but it isn’t polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and it doesn’t hurt the other person.
When they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, or finishing a talk, people often don’t say exactly what they are thinking. It’s an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and it’s also a part of the game of language.
9．When a person in America asks, “How are you ”, he or she wants to hear “________”.
A．Hello. B．How are you. C．Fine. D．Hi.
10．When a person says, “I’ve to go now. Someone is at the door.”, he or she may be ________.
A．giving an excuse B．hurting someone’s feeling
C．talking to a person at the door D．going to another place
11．Which one may be one of the rules of the game of language
A．Try your best to be polite. B．Agree with people all the time.
C．Always say what you mean. D．Never say exactly what you’re thinking.
12．The following statements are true EXCEPT “________”.
A．“How are you ” is not only a question, but also a way to greet.
B．It is OK to disagree with others strongly.
C．Being friendly to others and saying something politely are very important.
D．If someone says “Something is burning on the stove.” to you, maybe it means he or she doesn’t want to talk any more.

（2022秋·浙江金华·九年级校联考期中）Did you know that vocabulary (词汇) is more important than grammar If you have good vocabulary, you can communicate successfully, even if the grammar is not completely perfect.
However, one common problem is learning new words and then forgetting them. So when you want to use a new word in a conversation, you can’t remember it at that moment. Does this often happen to you The reason for this difficulty is that most students try to learn vocabulary by studying lists and dictionaries and remembering the words. But it may not work if you don’t have a very good memory.
The best way to learn vocabulary and remember the words successfully, is to learn new words and use them at once. You can do this with a very simple exercise. Every time you learn a new word, for example, from an English lesson or an article, write it down in your vocabulary notebook. Writing is more active than just reading a definition (释义). You should write the word, the definition in English or translation, one example sentence from the article or dictionary and one example sentence that you create.
Imagine you just learn the word “generous”, write in your vocabulary notebook: generous (adjective), definition—giving or willing to give freely. Example one, from the article: Thanks for paying for my dinner, you’re very generous. Example two, my example: My brother is generous because he volunteers at the animal shelter on weekends. It’s best if your example sentences are true to your life, because this creates a personal connection with the new word. The next day, read your vocabulary notebook again and try to add one more example sentence using the new word. It’s helpful for you to remember it. These two simple steps—writing the word and using it at once—help you remember and use new words.
Do you have a vocabulary notebook If not, start now.

In old times, the Lantern Festival was also romantic(浪漫的). Watching lanterns gave young people a chance to meet each other. A line from Xin Qiji, a poet during the Song Dynasty shows this:

（2021秋·广东珠海·九年级校考期中）To us it seems so natural to put up an umbrella to keep the water off when it rains, but actually the umbrella was not invented as protection against the rain. Its first use was as a shade against the sun!
Nobody knows who first invented it, but the umbrella was used in very ancient times. Probably the first to use it were the Chinese in the 11th century BC．
We know that the umbrella was used in ancient Egypt and Babylon as a sunshade. And there was a strange thing connected with its use: it became a symbol of honor. In the Far East in ancient times, the umbrella was allowed to be used only by those in high offices or by roval people such as the king or queen.
In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade. And the umbrella was in commonly used in ancient Greece. But it is believed that the first persons in Europe to use the umbrella as protection against the rain were the ancient Romans. During the Middle Ages, the use of the umbrella practically disappeared. Then it appeared again in Italy in the late sixteenth century. And again it was considered as a symbol of power. By 1680, the umbrella appeared in France and later in England.
By the eighteenth century, the umbrella was used against rain throughout most of Europe. Umbrellas have not changed much in style during all this time, though they have become much lighter in weight. It wasn’t until the twentieth century that women’s umbrellas began to be made, in a whole variety of colors.

（2022秋·辽宁铁岭·九年级统考期中）It’s hard to believe that a beautiful silk dress comes from thousands of small insects! Silk is made by insects called silkworms (蚕). It takes about 5,500 silkworms to make 1 kilogram of silk. The process was discovered by the Chinese about 5,000 years ago.
How is silk made The process starts with the eggs of a certain kind of insect. The eggs are collected and kept warm. After a few days, the silkworms come out of the eggs. They are fed with leaves from mulberry trees every 30 minutes, all night and all day. The room is kept warm, and the silkworms must not be influenced by loud noises or bad smells. After a month, they start to make a cocoon (茧). After four days, the cocoon is ready.
The cocoons are heated. Then the cocoons are put into water to make the silk loose (松散的). The silk from three or four cocoons is put together and made into a thread (线). One cocoon can make a thread that is 1 kilometer long.
Finally, the silk threads are made into cloth, and the cloth is used for things like dresses and scarves. Today, silk is produced in many countries, including India and Thailand, but more than 80 percent of the world’s silk comes from China. Every year, enough silk thread is produced, which can go from the earth to the sun 300 times. People love clothes made of silk because they are very beautiful.

If anyone asks me for help, I always say “Yes!” “Can you help me with English practice ” Grace asked me on the first day after she became my deskmate. “Of course,” I replied without hesitation. Grace has been working really hard on her studies and she needed my help though I didn’t have much time left for her.
One day after school, while I was doing lots of homework, Grace’s phone call came. She complained (抱怨) a lot and it made me feel bored, but I still felt bad about saying “no”. When Grace ended the call, it was 00: 15 a. m. But I still had homework left and I wanted to sleep. This was bad for a junior high school student in Grade Three who is going to take an important exam this June.
Finally I began to cry. I felt so tired and realized that the stress had an effect on my health. I tried to get myself out. Studying is more important than other things, so Grace has to come the second. It’s now important for me to say “no”.
“Can you give me a hand ” Grace asked. “Sorry. I just have to review my chemistry notes,” I answered. “All right, it’s up to you,” she said. I felt completely relaxed when I heard her reply. Anyway, it’s not so hard to say “no” at all.
To be honest, I have felt much happier since learning to refuse. I have more time to spend on my study at present. I still try my best to help others, but sometimes I say “no” because I know everyone has a limit (极限).
