普洱2024-2025学年第一学期期末教学质量检测试题(卷)初三英语

1、阅读下面的短文，将划线部分译成英文或中文。

Studying at a girl’s school, we seldom see boys. But in September, we got a chance to dance and talk with boys. In the morning, all of the girls discussed this activity.

But when the boys came, we stopped immediately. After a welcome speech, the first activity took place: find a boy partner and learn five things about each other. 1. At first, the situation was so embarrassing that nobody moved. Gradually, some people started talking. “Would you like to be my partner?” the boy next to me said. “Sure,” I replied. We stood together and asked each other questions like “what’s your name?” After we took the first step, the rest was easier. 2. 让我惊讶的是，我们有许多共同点。We both like British singer Ed Sheeran. Also, English is our favorite subject. The most exciting part is dancing. The teacher taught boys and girls separately (分别). We all smiled and studied hard. 3. The lesson didn’t last long, as we had to practice with our partners. I felt my heart beating so fast. 4. 老实说，这是我第一次握一个男孩的手。I made many mistakes even with the simplest steps, but my partner never blamed (责怪) me. My palms (手心) got sweaty (出汗的). My partner said, “Don’t be nervous. I will lead you.” His palms were big and warm. I began to calm down and enjoy dancing. 5. At the dance, we built good relationships with the boys and our teachers encouraged us to do so. I really like this type of activity.

27、A

  Some people are afraid to attend a party because they don't know how to make small talks at a party. Why not learn how to master the art of small talks so you can enjoy your next party?

  Look for someone you know.

  When you enter a party, look for someone you know right away.  Approach(接近)him/her with a smile. This is a good way to break the ice. That person can usually introduce you to some other party guests， so you won't feel lonely.

  Ask open-ended questions.

  The best way to keep the conversation is to ask open-ended questions. The questions can't be answered with a one-word answer. Ask "How was your trip? " instead of "Tell me about your trip".

  Come prepared.

  Read a good newspaper before attending a party. You can make an intelligent remark(明智的评论) about any topic. Just make sure you don't comment  about the topics you know little about.

  Avoid controversial topics.

  Don't talk about the three main topics at the party-politics, religion(宗教)and sex. This is still a good rule of thumb(经验法则).

  Practise, practise and practise.

  Practise talking to people everywhere you go. When you're standing in line at the store, talk to the person in front of you. The more you talk with people in life, the easier it will become to talk to people at the party.
