B Every summer, my parents and I spend a week at the beach in Cozumel, Mexico. One day a few years ago, we were at the beach and noticed a truck with the word “turtle (海龟)” on the back. We were curious, so we followed the truck to see what was up. Later, the people in the truck got out and started carefully checking the sand in marked (有记号的) areas. They were working on turtle nests! When we asked if we could help, they said yes. We learnt that each year mother turtles go to some of the beaches in Cozumel and create nests to lay their eggs. The turtle workers watch the nesting mothers and make records so that they will know when the eggs will hatch( 孵出). Then they mark the nests with stakes(桩) so that people won’t walk on them. That day, we were asked to count up the hatched eggs and the eggs that didn’t hatch. To do that, we had to dig up the sand with our hands to find the nests first. While we were working, we happened to save as many as four baby turtles! These little animals needed help to dig through the sand. We were just there to give them a hand. And we also made sure they reached the ocean safely. Luckily, the turtle workers have let us come back to help for a few years in a row. I’ve helped many turtles get a good start in life. And I feel so happy. （ ）61.What does the underlined word “ curious ” mean in Chinese? A. 迫切的 B. 好奇的 C. 知足的 D. 谨慎的 （ ）62. What does the underlined word “ them ” refer to ? A. The turtles B. The eggs C. The stakes D. The nests （ ）63.What did the writer’s family do at the beach that day ? A. They cleaned the dirty turtles. B. They marked the nests with stakes. C. They counted the number of turtle eggs. D. They helped mother turtles go to the beach.. （ ）64. How many baby turtles did the writer’s family save that day? A. Two B. Three C. Four D. Five （ ）65.What does the passage mainly talk about ? A. Helping sea turtles. B. How to keep sea turtles C. How to protect sea animals D. Having a holiday at the beach.九年级英语 第 7 页 共 8 页 C 配对阅读。左栏是5个人的情况介绍，右栏是7种解决问题的方法简介，请为每个人选择最合适的 方法，并将答题卡上对应的选项涂黑。 ( ) 66.Lily is poor in English. She never passes an English exam.

Sean thinks his phone does him more than harm. What do you think? Dear Sean, You’ve heard the warnings. Fifty percent of teenagers say they’re addicted to their phones. I think you have this problem too. That’s why I think you should give up your phone. Not forever. Just for a week. I’m worried that you’re developing some bad habits. You keep your phone with you at all times --- you even check basketball scores at dinner table! But this isn’t just about manners. Using your phone while you do your homework is a bad idea. It makes it harder to focus（集中注意力）on your work. It takes longer to finish a task. And you make many more mistakes when you can’t fully focus on your work. There are many good reasons to take a break from your phone. You can get back into hobbies you gave up. You can focus on the people around you. You’ll discover what life is like without social media（社交媒 体）, games and apps. So, what do you say? Are you ready to take a break from your phone? Love, Dad Dear Dad, I know you think I’m addicted to my phone. But I’m just using technology to make my life better. My phone helps me in many ways. Remember when the car broke down? I texted（给…发短信）you that I was going to be late. If I hadn’t, you would have been worried about me. My phone helps me with homework too. I can look up anything in a second. It’s really hard to be successful today without a phone. Social media, games and apps seem silly to you, but they help me stay connected to my friends. I promise to cut back on my phone use, and I won’t use it at the dinner table anymore! But giving it up for a week would be a mistake. And it wouldn’t change anything in the long term. Love, Sean Information Card The percentage of teenagers who think they are addicted to their phones 81. The length（时间的长度）of time Sean’s dad advises Sean to give up his phone 82. The place where Sean uses his phone to check basketball scores 83. The thing that Sean thinks he can do with his phone when doing his homework 84. His dad’s opinion on social media, games and apps according to Sean 85.

Let’s listen to a story. Months ago, a mother was staring at her smartphone while her little son was in danger in the river. The boy struggled for help for almost 3 minutes, but the mother lost herself in something in the smartphone and didn’t notice anything. This is really a sad lesson. Overusing smartphones can lead to bad results because you will probably fail to notice what is happening around. So you should use smartphones in the right way. Use them less and focus more on the people around you.
