2024-2025学年（上）枣庄九年级质量检测英语

1、   When you travel abroad and meet foreigners who speak English well, you may think that they are Americans or British people. However, they can be non-native(非母语的) speakers of English. 1. For example, a number of Germans are good at English even though English isn’t their mother tongue.

Learning English is not a boring journey. 2. 据说许多学习者在日常生活里学英语。 Eric is a Russian actor. He used to have problems in pronouncing. Through TV programs, movies and music from English-speaking countries, he learned English in an interesting way with confidence built up. 3. “English songs and movies make me happy when I am blue,” he said. “It is always good to have something inspiring and cheerful in the learning process.” 

4. Sometimes your effort may end up driving yourself mad. If so,asking for help is necessary and of great importance. No one is expected to learn something well without difficulties. When we find learning English hard, turn to others in time. And we are supposed to work with other English learners to support each other and encourage each other. 5. 此外，我们可以尽可能多参加社会活动。 For example, we can be voluntary guides to help foreign visitors, which is a chance to practice English.

28、   We sat on the swing （秋千）enjoying the warm summer air, truly without a care in the world. Cody, my 6-year-old son laughed, as he swung h【1】 than me. His laugh made me smile. Afterwards, we went for a walk. As we were walking, Cody looked up at me and said, “Today is the best day, isn't it?” T【2】 I didn't understand the meaning of his words, I still smiled at him and r【3】, “Yes, you're right.” I then started thinking about what we had done that day? We didn't really do anything s【4】. There was nothing we did that cost any money. It was just a c【5】 day.

But then, I found out my p【6】. So often, we wait for our “best days” without r【7】 that “today is our best day” or we say, “when I get this”, or, “if only this”, or, “when I have more money, I will...”, and we forget to live every day, to enjoy today. So often, we just wait for the “best days”. And the most terrible thing is that we are used to c【8】 the best thing with money.

We should be more like c【9】. They truly live in the moment! They don't need expensive things to make them happy and they can always enjoy the simple p【10】 in their life. There is a saying, “Carpe Diem” which means, “Seize the Day”. As we get older, we need to remember this saying and enjoy every day. Live each moment to its fullest!
