It was probably six feet tall, but Ihad it stopped even before we got up to the first slope.So today I just waited for my friends while they took the53 mph roller-coaster-riding.

We started to climb the slope toward the highest point of the ride.WHOOOOSH!It felt as if something had broken. We started falling fast. The wind blew hard and it seemed like my face would blow off. I screamed so loud that I couldn't hear myself anymore. Oh my gosh, we weren't going to stop! I knew it. This had been a terrible idea. I closed my eyes, never stopping my scream.CLUNK!The ride came suddenly to a stop. I opened my eyes. We were back where we started! I hadn't died! I stepped off the ride, tired and dizzy.

We also have character traits including humor, warmth, creativity and so on.Certain physical traits are fully inherited (遗传 ), such as blue eyes and knobby knees. About 25,000 t0 35,000 genes (基因 ) are in a single cell in the human body. These genes carry the traits that are passed down genetically from parents to their children. 'Many traits exist between inheritance and development - the interaction with environment.One example is body shape. It tends to be passed down from parents. But once diet becomes a factor, environment begins to play an important role in how the body develops. Body shape is a trait that is a mixture ofinheritance from parents and influence of environment.So lots of our most important traits have been learned, rather than inherited. For example, if you're really great at video games, it's not because your parents passed down the skills in genes. It's becauseyou have practiced a lot of video games and developed those skills yourself. If you have kids who turn out to be great at video games, it is because they put in the hours, learned the skills, and memorizedthe moves that are necessary to play the video games well.Of course, some of us have brains that are more advantageous to video game playing. Say you were born with a large and powerful part of the brain that controls your hand-eye coordination (协调能力 ).That's inherited. What you do with it, how you choose to develop that advantage, is up to you.You can pierce your nose or get a tattoo - it doesn't matter how much you change your body during the lifetime. None of those things will turn into genetic material to be passed down to the next generation. However, if your children grow up in an enwronment with role models who are pierced and covered in tattoos, they are more likely to get piercings and tattoos!27is a physical trait that is fully inheritedA. The eye colorB. The special dietC. The body shapeD. The pierced nose28. According to the passage, the writer believes thatA. character traits can hardly change during the lifetimeB. the skills of video game playing are passed down to kidsC. a kid's hand-eye coordination isn't related to inheritanceD. environment plays an important role in traits development29. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Why are Traits Important?B.How does Inheritance Influence Traits?C. Where do Traits Come from?D. What are Physical and Character Traits?DMotivated (有内驱力的 ) or Overachieving?Everyone has the occasional classmate who hands in his work ahead of time with really beautiful handwriting. Some teachers may cheerfully get the homework by saying "Of course you did it early.I'm sure you've done a good job!" Some teachers may feel annoyed because "The deadline is not until next Friday." Behind this student's back are tons of whispers from his classmates, "Ugh, he is such anoverachiever and it's so annoying ..."If you ask the same student to explain his behavior, he probably says that he is simply "motivated". Such students refuse to call themselves overachievers but prefer "motivated" instead. They want to shy away from the unpleasant term"overachiever" but choose to embrace the word "motivated" .Why is the term "overachiever" used as an insult (侮辱 )? Do we not all work hard to achieve our goals? Why does the "motivated" student not proudly call himself an "overachiever" ?In my personal experience, being called an overachiever in front of my classmates is not pleasant at all. The word is often connected with an unkind smile or sometimes a hint ofjealousy (嫉妒 )."Overachiever" carries the implied (暗指的 ) sense which "over" lends it - you have done too much and you have gone too far. Anyway, it is beyond the proper degree and just annoying to those students who refuse to put in the effort themselves and get unhappy with you for doing so.A student would rather think of himself as an excellent student and it is motivation that drives him to do his best. What is the implied meaning of "motivated" ? Connected with positive words like willpower, spirit and determination, the "motivated" student would appear to be competing in an event of the brain Olympics.Although there are differences in their implications, the student who calls himself "motivated" could actually be a secret overachiever, going over the top for all his work; while the "overachiever" is nothing more than a motivated student, driven by the simple desire to do well and willing to put in time and effort. In fact, the choice lies within the student: to overachieve or not to overachieve; to find the motivation to do well and be driven by it, or to sit back and blame others for overachieving to hide his inability to achieve.30. According to the passage, overachieversA. are popular with their classmates B.hand in homework ahead of timeC. are much loved by their teachersD. look down on others for being slow31. The word "embrace" in Paragraph 2 probably means "_".A. understandB. explainC. doubtD. accept32. What can we learn from the passage?A. Teachers expect students to benefit from their extra work.B. Students compete with each other to become overachievers.C. Classmates may laugh at overachievers to hide their inability to achieve.D. The writer has some pleasant experiences of being called an overachiever.33. The writer probably agrees tahatA.students shouldn't be encouraged to be overachieversB.students without motivation will become overachieversC.motivated students make better progress than overachieversD.motivated students have something in common with overachievers九年级（英语）第6页（共8页）四.阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题o (共 10分,每小题 2分)Cartoonist: Charles SchulzCharles Schulz is a true hero.
