保山2024-2025学年第二学期期末教学质量检测试题(卷)初三英语

1、   Some westerners think the ways of education in many Chinese families are hard to understand. Here are some examples.

In China, many children are taken care of by their grandparents because their parents are busy. 1.但是父母应该经常和孩子待在一起并与他们交谈。

2. Parents don't pay attention to children's rights. Parents should knock at the door before they go into the room of their children. They shouldn't look through their children's things before they agree. Children who are not respected (尊重) also do not know how to respect others' rights (权利).

3. Parents often compare their children with others. Most Chinese parents want their children to be successful, because it can save the parents' face. Parents often say, "Your best friend studies so hard. He has already got good grades and lots of big prizes. "This is the worst thing. It will only hurt their children's feelings.

4. Many children have to do what their parents expect, though they do not like it. For example, parents ask their children to learn to play the piano or go to study in foreign countries. Children should decide these themselves.

5.他们学习越努力，就会有更好的成绩。Many parents think school performance is everything. In fact, the integrated (综合的) ability is so important that it will influence children all their lives.

However, children should try to understand their parents. Children don't have to be perfect, and parents don't have to be perfect, either. It's important to understand and respect each other.

22、 Choose the best answer（根据短文内容，选择最恰当的答案):

For years I wanted a flower garden. I’d spend hours thinking of different things I could plant that would look nice together.

But then we had Matthew, and Marvin, and the twins, Alisa, and Alan, and then Helen. Five children. I was too busy raising them to grow a garden.

Money was tight(拮据的), as well as time. Often when my children were little, one of them would want something that cost too much, and I’d have to say, “Do you see a money tree in the yard? Money doesn’t grow on trees, you know.”

Finally, all five got through high school and college and were off on their own. I started thinking again about having a garden.

Then, one spring morning, on Mother’s Day, I was working in my kitchen. Suddenly, I looked out of the window and there was a new tree, planted right in my yard. I thought it must be a weeping willow(垂柳), because I saw things blowing around on all its branches. Then I put my glasses on — and I couldn’t believe what I saw.

There was a money tree in my yard!

I went to have a look. It was true! There were dollar bills, one hundred of them, taped all over that tree. There was also a note among them, “Thank you for your time, Mom. We love you.”

Later, my children bought me tools, a sunflower stepping stone and gardening books.

That was three years ago. My garden’s now very pretty, just like I wanted. When I go out and take care of my flowers, I don’t seem to miss my children as much as I once did. It feels like they’re right there with me.

I live in a city where winters are long and cold, and summers are too short. But every year now, when winter sets in, I look out of my window and think of the flowers, I’ll see next spring in my little garden. I think about what my children did for me, and I get tears in my eyes — every time.

I’m still not sure that money grows on trees. But I know love does!
