一 用括号中所给单词的适当形式填空
1. All the members of the audience were (amaze) at the skater's fantastic moves.
2. These young players are ready (compete) in the international match.
3. With practice, her skating skills became (smoothly) day by day.
4. The three (judge) gave high scores to the young athlete.
5. It's not easy (catch) up with the top athletes in the world.

1. amazed 2. to compete 3. smooth 4. judges 5. to catch

1. 本题考查固定搭配be amazed at，意为“对……感到惊讶”，此处修饰观众成员的主观感受，要使用amaze的形容词形式amazed。
2. 本题考查固定结构be ready to do sth.，意为“准备好做某事”，空处需要填入动词不定式形式。
3. 本题考查词性转换，句中became是系动词，后面需要接形容词作表语，要将括号内的副词smoothly变为对应的形容词smooth。
4. 本题考查名词复数，数词three后要接可数名词的复数形式，名词judge的复数变化为直接加s。
5. 本题考查固定句型It's + 形容词 + to do sth.，意为“做某事是……的”，此处要用动词不定式作句子真正的主语。

二 根据汉语意思完成句子,每空一词
6. A field trip is . 郊游的时间快要到了。
7. jogging the high jump is suitable for me. 慢跑和跳高都不适合我。
8. I can a look at the show. 我可以更近距离地观看表演。
9. He always in the race. 他总是在跑步比赛中领先。
10. He a handoff to his teammate. 他平稳地将接力棒传给了队友。

6. coming soon
7. Neither; nor
8. take; closer
9. takes the lead
10. made; smooth

本题考查九年级上册对应单元的核心词汇、固定短语与语法运用，结合每空一词的要求匹配对应语义：
6. 考查现在进行时表将来的用法和副词搭配，come的现在分词coming和副词soon连用，可表达“快要到来”的含义，符合句意。
7. 考查并列连词neither...nor...的用法，该结构意为“两者都不”，连接并列主语时谓语动词遵循就近原则，和句中后文的is匹配，符合“慢跑和跳高都不适合我”的语义。
8. 考查固定短语搭配take a closer look at，意为“更近距离观看”，情态动词can后接动词原形take，closer是形容词比较级，意为“更近的”，符合句意。
9. 考查固定短语take the lead，意为“领先”，主语He是第三人称单数，由频度副词always可知时态为一般现在时，谓语动词take变为第三人称单数形式takes。
10. 考查动词和形容词的搭配，make a smooth handoff表示“平稳完成接力传递”，描述已经发生的过往动作用一般过去时，make变为made，smooth是形容词，修饰名词handoff，意为“平稳的”，符合句意。

阅读理解
What is sport? Is it just a game, or does it have special meaning beyond physical activity? For thousands of years, people have thought deeply about this question, and sport is truly far more than just exercise. It is a global cultural
activity with great power.
Sport is incredibly popular across the globe. The World Cup and the Olympic Games attract billions of viewers. Revenues from major sports competitions are far higher than those of the global music industry. Even troubled by problems like corruption, sport still touches people deeply with its great power.
Thinkers have different ideas about sport. The ancient Greeks saw sport as a way to build virtue and strength, and the Olympics were a high point to show their excellence. For them, sport was part of a good education, teaching people to compete bravely and act with virtue(美德). Some thinkers, however, believe sport is used to distract people. They think modern sport loses its fun because of too many rules and too much focus on records.
A third group of thinkers praises sport for its beauty. They say sport creates a special moment for players and viewers, filling them with wonder at the athletes' movements and the excitement of competitions. New technologies sometimes spoil this special feeling, ruining the smooth flow of sports matches.
Sport is an ancient human activity, and it still raises important questions today. It reflects the good and bad of society, but its unique charm lies in connecting people and showing the strength of the human spirit. It makes us feel proud, and it will always be an important part of human culture.
