Once upon a time, there lived a farmer who grew very good corn. Each year, he would
take part in the state farmers' fair and win a top award for his corn.
The story of the farmer's success reached the ears of a reporter who wanted to interview
the farmer. While he was learning about the farmer's growing skills, he found that the
farmer shared his best quality seeds(种子) with his neighbors.
"How can you afford to share your best corn seeds with your neighbors when some of
them might go to the fair as well " the reporter asked.
"Why wouldn't I " the farmer replied. "The wind picks up pollen (花粉) from the corn
and moves it from field to field. If my neighbors grow poor quality corn, cross pollination(授
粉) will finally degrade (降低) the quality of my corn too. If I am to grow high quality corn,
I must help my neighbors grow good corn too."
The farmer's answer made the reporter understand how aware the old farmer was
九年级英语 第 5 页 共 10 页
about connections in life.
It is the same with our lives. Those who want to live in peace must help others around
them to live in peace too. Those who wish to be loved must first learn to love others too.
Those who wish to live well must help others live well too, as the value of our lives has
something to do with the lives we touch.
54. From the story, we know that the farmer .
A. was good at growing corn B. gave poor quality corn to his neighbors
C. had no growing skills D. organized the farmers' fair every year
55. The farmer's corn grew well partly because .
A. his neighbors also grew good corn B. his neighbors gave him the best seeds
C. he didn't let others grow good corn D. he wasn't good at doing cross-pollination

C. Helping others is good for ourselves. D. Loving others makes life more colorful.
C
You'll need to create a password(密码) to do just about everything on the Web, such
as checking your email, banking online, logging in WeChat and so on. And while it's
simpler to use a short, easy-to-remember password, this can also cause serious risks(风险)
to your online safety. To protect yourself and your information, you'll want to use
passwords that are long, strong, and difficult for someone else to guess, while still keeping
them easy for you to remember.
A strong password is one that's easy for you to remember but difficult for others to
guess. Let's take a look at some of the most important things to think when setting(设置) a
password. First, never use personal information such as your name, birthday, user's name,
or email address. This type of information is often publicly available(可获得的), which
makes it easier for someone to guess your password. Second, use a longer password. Your
passwords should be at least six characters(符号) long or even longer. Then, don't use the
same password for each account(账户). If someone discovers your password for one
account, all of your other accounts will be in danger.
You can try to use numbers, symbols, and both capital(大写) and small letters(字母).
You have to avoid using words that can be found in the dictionary. Like "swimming", it
would be a weak password. So random (随机的) passwords are the strongest.
Instead of writing your passwords on paper like books or notebooks where someone
might find them, you can use a password manager (a kind of App) to keep them safely
online. Password managers can remember and enter your password on different websites.
That means you won't have to remember longer passwords. So it is a good and safe way to
keep your passwords.
57. The underlined word "this" refers to .
A. checking your email B. banking online
九年级英语 第 6 页 共 10 页
C. logging in Wechat D. using a short and easy password
58. According to the passage, " " is the strongest password.
A. 20080618 B. Swimming C. Sywi2008! D. Betty!
59. The last paragraph is mainly about .
A. when to keep your passwords B. how to set safe passwords
C. when to remember passwords D. how to keep passwords safely
60. The purpose of this passage is mainly to .
A. encourage people to check emails
B. help people set and keep safe passwords
C. stop people from using their personal information
D. tell people the differences between easy and strong passwords
