2025年广东省深圳市盐田区中考二模英语试题

At school, everyone spoke English. I tried hard to follow, but my Chinese and English got2 together when I spoke. During lunch, kids laughed and shared jokes, but I just smiled and stayed3. One day, my teacher asked us to share a childhood story. My heart4 as I tried to speak, but the words got stuck in my throat. That night, I5 into the pillow, feeling so alone.

My grandma realized I was so sad. She sat beside me and pulled out an old photo album. "Look," she said, pointing to pictures of our Mid-Autumn celebrations. "These photos hold our family's past. Our language is like these photos. It keeps our6 and stories alive." I started writing down Grandma's stories about our home every day. At first, it was hard, but soon the words I'd forgotten began to7.

Finally, the day of the cultural fair arrived. My hands shook as I shared a short story from my8. To my surprise, my classmates listened9, their eyes wide with interest. When I finished, applause (掌声) filled the room. A girl said: "That was wonderful. I wish I knew my family's stories."

Now I know: Language isn't a wall. It's the laughter in family stories, the courage to voice your story, and the10 that connects all of us.

At the age of 11, during the 2008 earthquake, Niu Yu was saved from the remains of the building three days after the disaster happened. Her right leg was cut off because of serious injuries.

It took her 10 years to walk out of the shadow of being disabled. In 2018, she took part in the Wenchuan Marathon with her "little steel leg". Since then, she took her "little steel leg" as her pride and started to put colorful stickers on it. Under the name of "Brother Chunyou", she started her self-media career and published a book based on her experience. She was also amazed by the art of photography and made it her another lifelong career. She bravely tried new things, like walking in a fashion show.

Niu Yu's journey on the Internet has not been smooth sailing. Though she was hurt by online violence (暴力), she keeps going. Her positive power helps many disabled people. As a representative of the Provincial People's Congress (省人大代表), she pays attention to disabled people's jobs and other relative problems. She hopes that one day disabled people won't be seen as the "weak group" anymore.

Li Hua first appeared in the English test of the National College Entrance Exam in 1995. Since then, generations of Chinese students have once been Li Hua, writing to introduce Chinese culture, exchange school experiences, and share their dreams, mostly to an imaginary American friend.

For many Americans, this was the first time they had heard about Li Hua. They use their broken Chinese, some in video clips, and some in poor handwritten Chinese.

Taetertott wrote: "When I was a kid, adults joked that digging a deep hole could reach China. I tried but failed!" Even after TikTok returned, Americans stayed because of the warm welcomes and wonderful Chinese culture. What began as polite greetings grew into real friendships, showing how people can connect across cultures.

One key project is the "Sky Drone Corridor," which uses self-flying drones to deliver medical things and food. They make delivery time 60% shorter than before. For example, a 10-km delivery that took 40 minutes in the past now only takes 15 minutes. These drones have good guiding tools, so they can get to the right places quickly.

To keep the airspace safe, Yantian developed the "Smart Sky Platform". It uses AI to watch low-altitude flights all the time, preventing dangerous situations. Since it started, the number of flight accidents has dropped by 80%.

However, there are still problems. Drones make too much noise and the rules for using the airspace are still getting better. Yantian is testing noise-reducing drone designs and working with the government to make clear flight rules.

In order to develop in more ways, Yantian is also working with different research places and companies. They are getting ideas from all over the world to solve difficult technical problems and make the low-altitude economy better. In the future, Yantian plans to make its low-altitude network bigger with air taxi services and rescue drones.

If you are interested in sports, it is natural that you would want to be good at them. You need the right way of thinking and other qualities. Here is some advice to help you out.

Set a proper goal for yourself. Give yourself a reasonable amount of time to achieve that goal, and break it down into smaller parts if the goal is especially big. For example, you could practise just one skill at a time.

Do proper warm-ups. A good warm-up is important for any physical activity. It can be very light, but a proper warm-up will help prevent injury. Aim to warm up for about half an hour before the game.

Develop patience in practice. No matter what you do, skills are often slow to build. If you're not patient, you will try to learn more skills long before you're ready. Keep the long-term goal in mind, and stick with it until you make it a reality.

If you focus too much on being good at something, you may forget why you want to be good in the first place. Not taking the time to enjoy the sport you play can easily make you tired. When you exercise, try to remember the other reasons why you play sports such as the natural pleasure you get from exercise.

A. Let yourself have fun.

B. Stay focused on the game.

C. This will prepare your body for the activity.

D. Focus on these small ones instead of the big picture.

E. However, being a good sports player requires more than skills.

F. You may give up when you don't see improvement immediately.

Grain Rain (谷雨) is the last term in spring and starts on April 19th and ends on May 4th.
