You should know that this habit is bad for your hearing, according to the World Health Organization （WHO）. Over 1 billion young people are at risk of hearing loss due to listening to loud noise for long periods of time, WHO said. Listening to music or watching a TV show at loud volumes can harm your hearing.The United Nations has standards for safe listening. It is not safe to listen to sounds that are louder than 85 decibels（dB分贝）for eight hours or 100 dB for 15 minutes. The sound of a busy road is about 85 dB and the sound of a rock concert can be about 100 dB.Loud noise is harmful to the inner ears（内耳）. Most of us are born with about 16, 000 hair cells （听毛细胞） in our inner ears. These cells detect （探测）sounds. However, listening to loud noise for a long time can make these cells work too hard and cause some of them to die. This is what causes hearing loss.Some people might think that their music isnt all that loud. But this can depend on where you are. For example, if you are in a noisy place like the subway, you might turn up your music too loud without realizing it. Later, when you listen to it at the same volume in a quiet place, you might feel malaise.WHO said the “ safe level” for most sound is below 80 decibels for up to 40 hours a week. A level of 80 decibels is roughly（大约）equal to the noise of a subway.31 . Which of the following may hurt our hearing?AReading books aloud.BTalking with friends.CListening to music loudly.DUsing smart phones for a long time.32 . Its safe for us to listen to sounds that are_.Alower than 85 decibels for eight hoursBlouder than 100 decibels for fifteen minutesClouder than 80 decibels for fifteen hoursDlower than 100 decibels for eight hours33 . Why may people lose hearing according to the passage?AThe inner ears hurt.BThe inner ears couldnt work.CSome of the listening hair cells died.DThe listening hair cells are too many.34 . The underlined word “ malaise” means_here.AafraidBrelaxedCnervousDuncomfortable35 . From the passage, we know_.AWHO doesnt have a “ safe level” for soundBthe noise of a subway is about 80 decibelsCwe can go to a rock concert for three hoursDit doesnt matter where you listen to musicWhen I was 13 years old, the doctor said that I had a kind of attention disorder. So when everyone else in the class was focusing on tasks, I couldnt.In my first class, Mrs Green asked us to read a story and then write on it within 45 minutes. I raised my hand right away and said, “Mrs Green, you see, I have attention problems. I might not be able to do that.” She looked at me and said, “You are no different from your classmates, young man.” I tried, but I didnt finish the reading. So I took it home.In my bedroom, it was so quiet and the story suddenly became clear to me. It was about a blind person, Louis Braille. He lived in a time when the blind couldnt get much education. But Louis didnt give up. Instead, he invented a reading system which opened up a new world to the blind.Wasnt I the “blind” in my class, being made to learn like the “sighted (有视力的)” students? My thoughts spilled out and my pen started to dance. I completed the task within 40 minutes. Indeed, I was no different from others. If Louis could find his way out of his problems, why should I ever give up?I didnt expect anything when I handed in my paper to Mrs Green, so when it came back to me the next day with an “A” on it, I couldnt believe my eyes. At the bottom of the paper were these words, “See what you can do when you keep trying.”36 . What problem did the writer have at the age of 13?AHe had a problem with the doctor.BHe couldnt focus his attention.CHis teacher gave no tasks to him.DIt was hard for him to understand the teacher in class.37 . What did Mrs Green do after hearing the writers words?AShe told the writer to think it over at home.BShe believed what the writer said to her.CShe asked the writer to finish the reading soon.DShe encouraged the writer to do as well as others.38 . What can we know about Louis Braille from the passage?AHe was a blind man with an attention disorder.BHe played an important role in the world of the blind people.CHe thought he was different from others.DHe finally gave up getting education.39 . How did the writer feel when he got his paper at last?AStrange.BExcited.CSurprised.DEmbarrassed.四、根据首字母、中文提示填空40 . He doesnt know this _(生物) teacher from New York.41 . We should eat _(健康) food.42 .

Tom, the hero of the book, lives with his aunt Polly. He is a lively and clever boy. He doesnt like people telling him 55 . to do, so he always gets into trouble. He and his best friend, Huck Finn, run away to an island in the middle of the Mississippi River. Tom has more 56 . because a bad man named Injun Joe is looking for him. Later, Tom escapes (runs away) from a cave with another friend, Becky.

But, of course, the time is changing all the time.Human faces, like clock faces, are also changing. And like clocks, the changes take place too slowly to be noticed. Over many thousands of years, though, huge changes are possible. For example, the human brain tripled (三倍的) in size. Our faces became flatter, and we began to think more.If our heads became larger in the past, how will things change in the future? Unlike the changes of a clock face, the changes in human faces are not easy to predict (预测). It is mainly because of the way in which we can now control parts of nature. Hundreds of thousands of years ago, all changes were natural, but now we can actively choose paths for our own evolution(进化).A US artist named Nickolay Lamm has recently offered an idea at what human faces may one day look like. The designs, inspired (受启发) by his conversations with scientist Alan Kwan, show humans with larger heads and eyes. In particular, Lamm predicts the forehead may be larger because of increasing usage of the brain.Just a few hundred years ago, most humans were working in the fields, while nowadays more and more people get education. These are just predictions, and no one can be sure how human beings will evolve(进化) in the future. But with such huge changes in our environment, it seems likely that we will look very different one day.Changes to human facesSimilarity between the changes to the70 . and ones to human facesThey both keep changing all the time. But these changes are too 71 . to be noticed.Over the time, it is 72 . for huge changes to take place.73 . of human faces changes in the pastThe human 74 . is three times as large as it was thousands of years ago.Human faces became flatter and humans began to think more.Possible changes in the 75 . It is hard to predict. One of the main76 . can be the way in which humans can control parts of the nature.A US77 . , Lamn, shows humans with larger heads and eyes.Lamn predicts that because humans78 . the brain more often, the forehead may be larger.ConclusionHow human beings will evolve is 79 . . But the huge changes in our environment are likely to make humans look very different.九、汉译英：整句句子翻译80 . 你能告诉我该乘哪路公共汽车吗?_81 . 火星上的空气要比地球上的稀薄很多。_82 . 我们最好不要花太多时间在网聊上。_83 . 我们有必要在年轻时学些有用的东西。_84 . 为了考上所理想的学校,我们每天都应该努力学习。_十、书信作文85 . 书面表达请你给班主任写一封推荐信，推荐 Li Lei 当班长。信中要对Li Lei进行全面介绍。词数80-100。1.16岁，九年级，外貌。2.星座-，以及所代表的性格特征。3 .有许多个人特质：自信、勤奋、好学，成绩好。4.乐于助人，常为我们讲解难题。5.为人善良，不自私，能注意每个细节。6.聪明、富于创意和想象力。23rdMayDear Mr. LuWe are writing to recommend Li Lei as our monitor.Yours sincerely Kitty第 17 页 共 17 页参考答案一、单选题1、2、3、4、5、6、7、8、9、10、11、12、13、14、15、二、完型填空1、三、阅读单选1、2、3、四、根据首字母、中文提示填空1、五、用所给单词的正确形式填空1、六、用单词的正确形式完成短文1、七、单词填空1、八、填空1、九、汉译英：整句1、十、书信作文1、
