On that last try a strong snowstorm forced him to turn back less than 100 meters from the top. “It’s been a dream of mine for more than 40 years,” Xia said. In 2018 Xia finally realized his dream, making him the first Chinese double amputee to summit (登顶) Qomolangma. “This time after 43 years, Qomolangma accepted me, finally,” he said. “Climbing the highest mountain in the world with prosthetics (假体) adds another level of difficulty, because it is difficult to feel the ground. Whatever you are standing on, what kind of roads you walk on, whether it is good or bad, they do not give you any feelings. You have to learn it day-to-day, to find the feeling,” said Xia. He also said he had to use his body to keep balance as prosthetics cannot walk up and down like real legs. “I have to be stronger than others,” he added. “I have learned from my journey to the top that you should move forward bravely no matter what conditions you face. Never give up on your dream,” said Xia. 根据语篇内容，选择最佳选项。 31. How many times did Xia Boyu try to get to the top of the world? A. Three. B. Four. C.

Never give up on your dream”可知，即使在安装假肢后、在本该过得轻松的老年，夏伯渝都没有放弃攀登珠穆朗玛峰梦想，所以从他的故事我们可以学到：不要放弃自己的梦想，故选A。 C NOTICE We would like to remind you about our class trip.

It means drawing something in a simple unplanned way. You might draw a cartoon character on a wall. Perhaps you draw a picture when you are listening to music. It doesn’t matter what you draw and there is no right or wrong way to do it. ②Doodling is relaxing because you don’t have to make your creation perfect. Joe Whales, who is famous for doodling, says, “When I doodle, I feel I’m the happiest person in the world. I enjoy it because I can express (表达) myself freely—there are no rules in doodling.” ③Another good thing about doodling is that it is easy to do. All you need is some paper and a pencil or pen. ④Doodling can also help people take in more information. A study found that those who doodled while listening to a long telephone message remembered more information than those who didn’t. ⑤What’s more, doodling can help people work out what makes them special. During a school visit, Cath Howe, a writer, asked pupils to draw some squiggles (弯弯曲曲的线条). Then they could fill in the spaces inside the squiggles with some words. The words described things they cared about, such as people, animals, food and hobbies. “The pupils really enjoyed doing it. Everyone doodled in their special way. I learned a lot about the pupils from it,” Howe said. ⑥Doodling is not only interesting but also very meaningful. Would you like to have a try? 根据语篇内容，选择最佳选项。 41. Which of the following isn’t doodling? A. Finishing your homework assigned (布置) by your art teacher. B. Drawing a picture when you are listening to music. C. Drawing a cartoon character on the wall. 42. What can we learn from Paragraph ②? A. Doodling can make you famous. B. Doodling can make you the happiest person in the world. C. You can show yourself freely by doodling. 43. What can we learn from the study in Paragraph ④? A. Doodling can help people take in more information. B. Doodling is relaxing. C. Doodling is easy to do. 44. What’s the structure (结构) of the text? A. B. C. 45. In which part of a newspaper can we read the text? A. Sports. B. Art. C. Science. 【答案】41. A 42. C 43. A 44. C 45. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲了什么是涂鸦以及涂鸦的好处。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据“What is doodling? It means drawing something in a simple unplanned way.”和“It doesn’t matter what you draw and there is no right or wrong way to do it.”可知，涂鸦是一种简单的、无计划的方式绘制一些东西，无论你画什么，都没有对错之分。A选项“完成美术老师布置的作业”不是涂鸦。故选A。 42题详解】 细节理解题。根据“I enjoy it because I can express (表达) myself freely—there are no rules in doodling.”可知，我们可以通过涂鸦自由地展示自己。故选C。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Doodling can also help people take in more information.”可知，涂鸦还可以帮助人们获取更多信息。故选A。 【44题详解】 篇章结构题。首段介绍涂鸦是什么；第二至第五段分别讲述了涂鸦的好处；最后一段总结全文。故选C。 【45题详解】 推理判断题。本文主要讲了什么是涂鸦以及涂鸦的好处，可以在艺术板块看到文章。故选B。 六、选词填空（共10小题，每小题1.5分，共15分） 根据语篇内容，从方框中选择恰当的单词，并用其正确形式填空。将单词填写在答题卡对应的横线上。每个单词只能用一次。 serious share why kind but though traditional quick early life When we talk about music, we can think of different ____46____ of music.

We went there by train. We got to the foot of the Great Wall at nine in the morning. I had never seen so long a wall. We stepped on the wall and walked along it. It’s about nine to ten meters wide. Because it’s built on the top of the mountains, it’s so amazing. Standing on the wall, I wondered how the ancient people built such a great project. From the guide I knew that the Great Wall has a history of over 2,000 years and most of the Great Wall that remains now was built in the Ming Dynasty. We enjoyed the beautiful views and took many photos there. We really had fun on the Great Wall. I hope to visit it again next time. 【解析】 【详解】[总体分析] 题材：本文是一篇材料作文； 时态：时态以“一般过去时”为主； 提示：写作要点已给出，考生应根据提示要点进行书面表达，不要遗漏要点。应能够围绕主题准确使用一定的语法、词汇、短语和句型等，清楚连贯地表达自己的思想，进而完成写作任务。 [写作步骤] 第一步，表明写作意图。引出“印象最深刻的一次旅游经历”这一话题； 第二步，具体阐述写作内容。从什么时候与什么人如何去了什么地方、做了哪些事、该地方有了哪些了解以及感想等方面来介绍这次旅游经历的具体情况； 第三步，书写结语。表达再次来旅游的愿望。 [亮点词汇] ①get to the foot of到了……脚下 ②enjoy the beautiful views欣赏美丽的景色 ③take photos拍照片 ④have fun玩得高兴 [高分句型] ①Standing on the wall, I wondered how the ancient people built such a great project.（现在分词作状语；how引导的宾语从句从句） ②Because it’s built on the top of the mountains, it’s so amazing.（Because引导的原因状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024年春季学期期末考试试题卷 八年级英语 （考试时间：120分钟，满分：120分） 一、听力（共30小题，每小题1分，共30分） （一）听句子，选图片。 你将听到五个句子，请选出与所听句子内容相符的图片，有一幅图是多余的。每个句子读两遍。 1. ________ 2. ________ 3. ________ 4. ________ 5. ________ （二）听短对话，选择最佳答案。 你将听到五段对话，每段对话后有一个小题，请根据对话内容，选出最佳答案。每段对话读两遍。 6.

B It took five tries and forty years for Xia Boyu, an amazing climber, to get to the top of the world. On his first Qomolangma try in 1975, Xia got frostbite (冻疮) and had to have his feet—and later legs—amputated (截肢). Xia went back again in 2014, 2015 and 2016. On that last try a strong snowstorm forced him to turn back less than 100 meters from the top. “It’s been a dream of mine for more than 40 years,” Xia said. In 2018 Xia finally realized his dream, making him the first Chinese double amputee to summit (登顶) Qomolangma. “This time after 43 years, Qomolangma accepted me, finally,” he said. “Climbing the highest mountain in the world with prosthetics (假体) adds another level of difficulty, because it is difficult to feel the ground. Whatever you are standing on, what kind of roads you walk on, whether it is good or bad, they do not give you any feelings. You have to learn it day-to-day, to find the feeling,” said Xia. He also said he had to use his body to keep balance as prosthetics cannot walk up and down like real legs. “I have to be stronger than others,” he added. “I have learned from my journey to the top that you should move forward bravely no matter what conditions you face. Never give up on your dream,” said Xia. 根据语篇内容，选择最佳选项。 31. How many times did Xia Boyu try to get to the top of the world? A. Three. B. Four. C. Five. 32.

B. Xia Boyu was the first Chinese to get to the top of Qomolangma. C. Xia Boyu is the strongest in the world. 34 What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A. The roads. B. The prosthetics. C. The legs. 35. What can we learn from Xia Boyu? A. We should never give up on our dreams. B. We should keep healthy and strong. C. We should try our best to climb to the top of the world. C NOTICE We would like to remind you about our class trip. The children will visit the Museum of Science and Industry on July 22.

Perhaps you draw a picture when you are listening to music. It doesn’t matter what you draw and there is no right or wrong way to do it. ②Doodling is relaxing because you don’t have to make your creation perfect. Joe Whales, who is famous for doodling, says, “When I doodle, I feel I’m the happiest person in the world. I enjoy it because I can express (表达) myself freely—there are no rules in doodling.” ③Another good thing about doodling is that it is easy to do. All you need is some paper and a pencil or pen. ④Doodling can also help people take in more information. A study found that those who doodled while listening to a long telephone message remembered more information than those who didn’t. ⑤What’s more, doodling can help people work out what makes them special. During a school visit, Cath Howe, a writer, asked pupils to draw some squiggles (弯弯曲曲的线条). Then they could fill in the spaces inside the squiggles with some words. The words described things they cared about, such as people, animals, food and hobbies. “The pupils really enjoyed doing it. Everyone doodled in their special way. I learned a lot about the pupils from it,” Howe said. ⑥Doodling is not only interesting but also very meaningful. Would you like to have a try? 根据语篇内容，选择最佳选项。 41. Which of the following isn’t doodling? A. Finishing your homework assigned (布置) by your art teacher. B. Drawing a picture when you are listening to music. C. Drawing a cartoon character on the wall. 42. What can we learn from Paragraph ②? A. Doodling can make you famous. B. Doodling can make you the happiest person in the world. C. You can show yourself freely by doodling. 43. What can we learn from the study in Paragraph ④? A. Doodling can help people take in more information. B. Doodling is relaxing. C. Doodling is easy to do. 44. What’s the structure (结构) of the text? A. B. C. 45 In which part of a newspaper can we read the text? A. Sports. B. Art. C. Science. 六、选词填空（共10小题，每小题1.5分，共15分） 根据语篇内容，从方框中选择恰当的单词，并用其正确形式填空。将单词填写在答题卡对应的横线上。每个单词只能用一次。 serious share why kind but though traditional quick early life When we talk about music, we can think of different ____46____ of music.
