2022-2023学年下学期八年级期末考试英语模拟卷(宿迁专用)
一、单项选择(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)
从A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
1. —________Smiths are used to living in Shanghai now.
—We hope more and more foreign friends live _____better life in China.
A. /; a B. The; an C. The; a D. / ; the
【答案】C
【解析】考查冠词用法。句意:—史密斯一家人现在习惯居住在上海。—我们希望越来越多的外国朋友在中国过更好的生活。定冠词the加姓氏复数表示“一家人”,所以第一空用the;第二空后的better是辅音开头的单词,表泛指用不定冠词a,故选C。
2. — Dad, could you please teach ________ how to speak Chinese?
— Sure! But it’s more important to learn it by ________.
A. my; yourself B. my; you C. me; you D. me; yourself
【答案】D
【解析】句意:——爸爸,你能教我说中文吗?——当然!但是自学更重要。
考查代词辨析。my我的,形容词性物主代词;yours你的,名词性物主代词;you你,人称宾格;me我,人称宾格;yourself你自己,反身代词。teach sb to do sth“教某人做某事”,需要人称宾格;by oneself“独自”,需要反身代词;故选D。
3. —Are you going to do a part-time job in your free time?
—Yes. I don’t think I should always ________ my parents.
A. turn on B. depend on C. put on D. come on
【答案】B
【解析】句意:——你打算在你的空闲时间做兼职吗?——是的。我认为我不应该总是依靠我的父母。
考查动词短语。turn on打开;depend on依靠;put on穿上;come on快点儿。根据“Are you going to do a part-time job in your free time?”和“Yes.”可推断,说话人认为不应该总是“依靠”他的父母。故选B。
4. —He was ________ dead after so much exercise.

A. as well as B. as much as C. as good as D. as soon as
【答案】C

考查词义辨析。as well as和……一样好;as much as和……一样多;as good as和……几乎一样,几乎已经;as soon as一……就。分析“He was…dead after so much exercise.”可知,此处表示“几乎”,故选C。

A. meaningful B. careful C. hopeful D. harmful

考查形容词辨析。meaningful有意义的;careful仔细的;hopeful有希望的;harmful有害的。根据上一句“I want to work as a volunteer at community centres. ”可知在社区中心做志愿者是有意义的,meaningful符合题意。故选A。
