Crow had been sitting on the branch for a while when Blue Bird asked him to fly away. “This nice tree near the garden is my home,” Blue Bird said. “Oh no,” replied Crow. “I’d like to live in this tree. From here I can see when Mrs. Brown plants her seeds in the garden. Then I can fly down and eat them.” “Let’s ask if any of our friends have an opinion about who should live in this tree,” said Blue Bird. “Then we will decide whose home it will be.” First they saw Rabbit hop by. “Who should live in this tree?” Crow asked. Rabbit said, “I like Blue Bird’s songs. I also like to eat the carrots from Mrs. Brown’s garden. Last year you ate all the seeds, so there were no carrots. I like you, Crow, but I think Blue Bird should live in this tree. ” Next Bee buzzed by. “Who should live in this tree?” Crow asked. “I hate to say it, Crow, but I think Blue Bird should.” Bee replied. “Last year you ate all the flower seeds. I can’t make honey without flowers.” Crow thought for a moment. Then he said, “I understand, and this is what I will do. ________I will eat only seeds from the field.

Of course you don’t want to spend your vacation sick in bed. So what can you do to stay in good health? There are three things you should remember when you travel：relax, sleep and eat well. A vacation should be a time for relaxing. But very often it is not. Think about what you do when you are a tourist. There are so many places to visit：museums, shops, parks and churches. You may spend most days walking around these places. You may be very tired. Your feet may hurt and you may have a terrible headache after a few hours. If this is the way you feel, you should take a rest. Don’t ask your body to do too much. A tired body means a weak body. And a weak body gets sick easily. So sit down for a few hours in a nice place. In good weather, look for a quiet park chair or you can stop at a corner. You can learn a lot by watching people while you rest. Sleep is also important. If you want to stay healthy, you need to get enough sleep. You may have trouble sleeping at night when you travel. Your hotel room may be noisy or the bed may be uncomfortable. If this is true, don’t be afraid to change rooms or hotels, or you may not get enough sleep. You may want to stay out late at night. In many cities the nightlife can be very interesting. Then you should plan to sleep for an hour during the day. That extra hour can make a big difference. Finally, if you want to stay healthy, you must eat well. That means eating the right kinds of food. Your body needs fresh fruits and vegetables, and some meat, milk or cheese. When you are in a new country, you may want to try new food but you need to be careful about how much you eat. Lots of rich food is not good for you. ( )42．This passage is mainly about ________. A．relaxing when you travel B．how exciting travel is C．what to eat when you travel D．how to stay healthy when you travel ( )43．Travelling around can be ________. A．no fun B．unhealthy C．very tiring D．the best way to relax ( )44．It’s a good idea to ________ when travelling. A．get some rest every day B．change hotels C．spend every night in hotels D．try a lot of rich food ( )45．According to the passage, which of the following statements is true? A．If you want to stay healthy, you must eat much. B．Your body needs lots of rich food when you travel. C．When you are in a new country, you may try all new food. D．If you want to enjoy your vacation, eating the right kinds of food is necessary. 第II卷（非选择题31道小题 共60分) 四、词汇（本题共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） A．请根据括号中的中文提示、英文释义或句意，写出句中所缺单词，使句子通顺。 46．Thanks to proper translation, the animated movie Ne Zha went to North American theaters, causing a hot (讨论) online. 47．Now, people are learning to use the laws to fight for their own (权利). 48．Many Chinese people who worked (in or to a foreign country) have come back to China to find jobs in recent years. 49．There was a (very large) stone lying on the road. 50．—Why did you get up so early to work? —In order to heavy traffic.

The poor animal cried for hours before his owner finally found him. The farmer tried hard to pull him out from the well but failed. He felt very sorry for the donkey but after carefully thinking about the situation, he decided that he would not save the donkey. Since the donkey was too old and it was not worth the trouble of saving. So he invited his neighbours to help him bury (埋葬) the old donkey in the well so that it would make him end his pain. Hearing many people coming to help, the old donkey was excited at first. As they began to scoop the dirt into the well with shovels (铲子), he soon realized what was happening. He felt very upset and cried sadly again. As the farmer and his neighbours continued throwing the dirt on his back, he suddenly had a good idea. Some time later, when the farmer finally looked down into the well, he was surprised at what he saw：every time the dirt landed on his back, he shook it off and took a step (步) up! Soon, everyone was amazed when the donkey stepped proudly over the edge of the well and ran away quickly! It seemed that it would bury him at first, but it actually helped him later because of the manner in which he faced his trouble. That is life! Just like the donkey, life is going to throw dirt on us, all kinds of dirt. As long as we face our problems in an active way, and refuse to give in to any trouble, each dirt is like a stepping stone with which we get out of the deepest wells. Never stop and never give up. Success is just on the way. 71．What did the farmer decide after carefully thinking about the situation? _________________________________________________________________________________________ 72．Why did the farmer invite his neighbours to help bury the old donkey in the well? _________________________________________________________________________________________ 73．How did the donkey’s feelings change in paragraph two? _________________________________________________________________________________________ 74．What did the donkey do when people threw the dirt on his back? _________________________________________________________________________________________ 75．What can we learn from the story?（自拟一句话） _________________________________________________________________________________________ 七、书面表达（满分25分） 76．地球是我们共同的家园，学校微信公众号要推送一篇以“Our Earth, Our Home”为题的文章。假设你是学校“环保小卫士”社团的成员，请根据提示，用英语写一篇短文，宣传环保知识。 注意： 1. 所写内容必须包括图中所有的信息，并作适当发挥； 2. 词数90左右。开头已给出，不计入总词数； 3. 文中不得提及真实的人名、校名等相关信息。 Our Earth, Our Home The earth is our home.

You may think, “Not me, I won’t get sick on my vacation.” But for many people, that is what happens. Of course you don’t want to spend your vacation sick in bed. So what can you do to stay in good health? There are three things you should remember when you travel：relax, sleep and eat well. A vacation should be a time for relaxing. But very often it is not. Think about what you do when you are a tourist. There are so many places to visit：museums, shops, parks and churches. You may spend most days walking around these places. You may be very tired. Your feet may hurt and you may have a terrible headache after a few hours. If this is the way you feel, you should take a rest. Don’t ask your body to do too much. A tired body means a weak body. And a weak body gets sick easily. So sit down for a few hours in a nice place. In good weather, look for a quiet park chair or you can stop at a corner. You can learn a lot by watching people while you rest. Sleep is also important. If you want to stay healthy, you need to get enough sleep. You may have trouble sleeping at night when you travel. Your hotel room may be noisy or the bed may be uncomfortable. If this is true, don’t be afraid to change rooms or hotels, or you may not get enough sleep. You may want to stay out late at night. In many cities the nightlife can be very interesting. Then you should plan to sleep for an hour during the day. That extra hour can make a big difference. Finally, if you want to stay healthy, you must eat well. That means eating the right kinds of food. Your body needs fresh fruits and vegetables, and some meat, milk or cheese. When you are in a new country, you may want to try new food but you need to be careful about how much you eat. Lots of rich food is not good for you. ( )42．This passage is mainly about ________. A．relaxing when you travel B．how exciting travel is C．what to eat when you travel D．how to stay healthy when you travel ( )43．Travelling around can be ________. A．no fun B．unhealthy C．very tiring D．the best way to relax ( )44．It’s a good idea to ________ when travelling. A．get some rest every day B．change hotels C．spend every night in hotels D．try a lot of rich food ( )45．According to the passage, which of the following statements is true? A．If you want to stay healthy, you must eat much. B．Your body needs lots of rich food when you travel. C．When you are in a new country, you may try all new food. D．If you want to enjoy your vacation, eating the right kinds of food is necessary. 【答案】42．D 43．C 44．A 45．D 【解析】本文介绍了旅行时要保持健康，你应该记住三件事：放松、睡好、吃好。 42．主旨大意题。根据“So what can you do to stay in good health?

The poor animal cried for hours before his owner finally found him. The farmer tried hard to pull him out from the well but failed. He felt very sorry for the donkey but after carefully thinking about the situation, he decided that he would not save the donkey. Since the donkey was too old and it was not worth the trouble of saving. So he invited his neighbours to help him bury (埋葬) the old donkey in the well so that it would make him end his pain. Hearing many people coming to help, the old donkey was excited at first. As they began to scoop the dirt into the well with shovels (铲子), he soon realized what was happening. He felt very upset and cried sadly again. As the farmer and his neighbours continued throwing the dirt on his back, he suddenly had a good idea. Some time later, when the farmer finally looked down into the well, he was surprised at what he saw：every time the dirt landed on his back, he shook it off and took a step (步) up! Soon, everyone was amazed when the donkey stepped proudly over the edge of the well and ran away quickly! It seemed that it would bury him at first, but it actually helped him later because of the manner in which he faced his trouble. That is life! Just like the donkey, life is going to throw dirt on us, all kinds of dirt.

So he invited his neighbours to help him bury the old donkey in the well so that it would make him end his pain.”可知，因为这头驴太老了，不值得救，所以农民请邻居帮忙将它埋了。故填Because the donkey was too old and it was not worth the trouble of saving. 73．根据“Hearing many people coming to help, the old donkey was excited at first. As they began to scoop the dirt into the well with shovels, he soon realized what was happening. He felt very upset and cried sadly again.”可知，驴子起初很兴奋，但在意识到会发生什么事情后，感到很难过。故填It felt excited at first but when it realized what was happening it felt very upset. 74．根据“every time the dirt landed on his back, he shook it off and took a step up”可知，驴子把身上的土抖下去，然后踩在上面。故填He shook it off and took a step up. 75．根据题目要求可知，本题应回答从故事中学到的道理，结合“As long as we face our problems in an active way, and refuse to give in to any trouble, each dirt is like a stepping stone with which we get out of the deepest wells. Never stop and never give up. Success is just on the way.”可知，本文旨在告诉我们遇到困难不要放弃。故填We shouldn’t give up when we have problems. 七、书面表达（满分25分） 76．地球是我们共同的家园，学校微信公众号要推送一篇以“Our Earth, Our Home”为题的文章。假设你是学校“环保小卫士”社团的成员，请根据提示，用英语写一篇短文，宣传环保知识。 注意： 1. 所写内容必须包括图中所有的信息，并作适当发挥； 2. 词数90左右。开头已给出，不计入总词数； 3. 文中不得提及真实的人名、校名等相关信息。 Our Earth, Our Home The earth is our home.

It was clean and beautiful in the past. However, it’s getting warmer now. The number of wild animals gets much smaller. Natural disasters happen more often than before. Why does this happen? First, there are more and more people on the earth. Second, people cut down forests and kill too many wild animals. What can we do? I think everybody can do something to help save the earth. We should stop people killing wild animals. We can also plant more trees and build more reserves. I hope our earth will become a better place for us to live. 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$………………○………………外………………○………………装………………○………………订………………○………………线………………○……………… ………………○………………内………………○………………装………………○………………订………………○………………线………………○……………… 此卷只装订不密封 ………………○………………内………………○………………装………………○………………订………………○………………线………………○……………… ………………○………………外………………○………………装………………○………………订………………○………………线………………○……………… … 学校：______________姓名：_____________班级：_______________考号：______________________ 【冲刺满分——期末考前押题卷】 2023——2024学年度第二学期期末考试 八年级英语试题 班级：________ 姓名：________ 得分：________ 注意事项：全卷满分为120分，考试时间为120分钟。 第I卷（选择题45道小题 共60分) 一、单项选择（本题共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 在A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的的最佳选项。 ( )1．—______ you please help me to return the book to the library? —With pleasure.

Crow had been sitting on the branch for a while when Blue Bird asked him to fly away. “This nice tree near the garden is my home,” Blue Bird said. “Oh no,” replied Crow. “I’d like to live in this tree. From here I can see when Mrs. Brown plants her seeds in the garden. Then I can fly down and eat them.” “Let’s ask if any of our friends have an opinion about who should live in this tree,” said Blue Bird. “Then we will decide whose home it will be.” First they saw Rabbit hop by. “Who should live in this tree?” Crow asked. Rabbit said, “I like Blue Bird’s songs. I also like to eat the carrots from Mrs. Brown’s garden. Last year you ate all the seeds, so there were no carrots. I like you, Crow, but I think Blue Bird should live in this tree. ” Next Bee buzzed by. “Who should live in this tree?” Crow asked. “I hate to say it, Crow, but I think Blue Bird should.” Bee replied. “Last year you ate all the flower seeds. I can’t make honey without flowers.” Crow thought for a moment. Then he said, “I understand, and this is what I will do. ________I will eat only seeds from the field.

Of course you don’t want to spend your vacation sick in bed. So what can you do to stay in good health? There are three things you should remember when you travel：relax, sleep and eat well. A vacation should be a time for relaxing. But very often it is not. Think about what you do when you are a tourist. There are so many places to visit：museums, shops, parks and churches. You may spend most days walking around these places. You may be very tired. Your feet may hurt and you may have a terrible headache after a few hours. If this is the way you feel, you should take a rest. Don’t ask your body to do too much. A tired body means a weak body. And a weak body gets sick easily. So sit down for a few hours in a nice place. In good weather, look for a quiet park chair or you can stop at a corner. You can learn a lot by watching people while you rest. Sleep is also important. If you want to stay healthy, you need to get enough sleep. You may have trouble sleeping at night when you travel. Your hotel room may be noisy or the bed may be uncomfortable. If this is true, don’t be afraid to change rooms or hotels, or you may not get enough sleep. You may want to stay out late at night. In many cities the nightlife can be very interesting. Then you should plan to sleep for an hour during the day. That extra hour can make a big difference. Finally, if you want to stay healthy, you must eat well. That means eating the right kinds of food. Your body needs fresh fruits and vegetables, and some meat, milk or cheese. When you are in a new country, you may want to try new food but you need to be careful about how much you eat. Lots of rich food is not good for you. ( )42．This passage is mainly about ________. A．relaxing when you travel B．how exciting travel is C．what to eat when you travel D．how to stay healthy when you travel ( )43．Travelling around can be ________. A．no fun B．unhealthy C．very tiring D．the best way to relax ( )44．It’s a good idea to ________ when travelling. A．get some rest every day B．change hotels C．spend every night in hotels D．try a lot of rich food ( )45．According to the passage, which of the following statements is true? A．If you want to stay healthy, you must eat much. B．Your body needs lots of rich food when you travel. C．When you are in a new country, you may try all new food. D．If you want to enjoy your vacation, eating the right kinds of food is necessary. 第II卷（非选择题31道小题 共60分) 四、词汇（本题共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） A．请根据括号中的中文提示、英文释义或句意，写出句中所缺单词，使句子通顺。 46．Thanks to proper translation, the animated movie Ne Zha went to North American theaters, causing a hot (讨论) online. 47．Now, people are learning to use the laws to fight for their own (权利). 48．Many Chinese people who worked (in or to a foreign country) have come back to China to find jobs in recent years. 49．There was a (very large) stone lying on the road. 50．—Why did you get up so early to work? —In order to heavy traffic.

The poor animal cried for hours before his owner finally found him. The farmer tried hard to pull him out from the well but failed. He felt very sorry for the donkey but after carefully thinking about the situation, he decided that he would not save the donkey. Since the donkey was too old and it was not worth the trouble of saving. So he invited his neighbours to help him bury (埋葬) the old donkey in the well so that it would make him end his pain. Hearing many people coming to help, the old donkey was excited at first. As they began to scoop the dirt into the well with shovels (铲子), he soon realized what was happening. He felt very upset and cried sadly again. As the farmer and his neighbours continued throwing the dirt on his back, he suddenly had a good idea. Some time later, when the farmer finally looked down into the well, he was surprised at what he saw：every time the dirt landed on his back, he shook it off and took a step (步) up! Soon, everyone was amazed when the donkey stepped proudly over the edge of the well and ran away quickly! It seemed that it would bury him at first, but it actually helped him later because of the manner in which he faced his trouble. That is life! Just like the donkey, life is going to throw dirt on us, all kinds of dirt. As long as we face our problems in an active way, and refuse to give in to any trouble, each dirt is like a stepping stone with which we get out of the deepest wells. Never stop and never give up.
