I stayed in space for more than 43 days, and complete six spacewalks for 43 hours and 13 minutes, so I have a lot of experience there. Today, I want to share some information unusual: what it’s like to eat in space. ②People often ask me if Tang—a kind of orange drink mix—is still taken in space. Don’t laugh, but we still drink it. Today’s space foods look like foods we’re used to eating every day. Foods, like nuts (坚果) or brownies (布朗尼蛋糕), can be taken on board as much as possible. But things like macaroni (通心面) or noodles would be specially prepared, then kept and packaged (打包) to stop them going everywhere. It’s a difficult but necessary process. However, food on a space task can be quite rich and various, can’t it? ③The microgravity (微重力) on the space station changes things in some ways. For one thing, there is no “up” or “down” in space. It also changes how things taste. On Earth, most of your blood is usually below your heart. In space, you’re weightless, so the sharing of blood in your body changes. One result is lowering your sense of taste, at least at first. This happened to me on one task. When I took sugar candy, I wasn’t able to taste it until the ninth day. ④Food can be a real happiness in space. For us, eating is more than just getting power and energy. Familiar foods and tastes can remind us of home and keep us feeling that we still keep in touch with Earth. 29. Who might the writer be? A. A teacher. B. A scientist. C. An astronaut. D. A police artist. 30. When could “I” taste the sugar candy after taking it on the space station? A. Until the ninth day. B. While he was taking it. C. 43 days later. D. 13 minutes later. 31. How is the passage organized? A. B. C. D. 【答案】29. C 30. A 31. A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了在太空吃东西的感觉。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Recently, I have finished four space tasks. I stayed in space for more than 43 days, and complete six spacewalks for 43 hours and 13 minutes, so I have a lot of experience there.”可知，在太空执行任务的应是宇航员。故选C。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据“When I took sugar candy, I wasn’t able to taste it until the ninth day.”可知“我”吃冰糖的时候，一直到第九天才尝出来。故选A。 【31题详解】 篇章结构题。通读全文可知，第①段总领全文，引起读者的兴趣；②③段介绍了太空中的食物、吃食物的感觉以及背后的科学知识；最后一段以作者的感悟结束，照应第一段。所以文章是总分总结构。故选A。 C “I was having a math class when suddenly, a piece of music came into my mind. I quickly wrote it down and finished the song in 30 minutes as soon as I got home.” Zhang Yuxuan, a 15-year-old vlogger on Bilibili, shared how she wrote the song SHE in her latest video. The song is at the top of the charts on Bilibili with over 10 million views. Zhang now has 1.28 million fans. Zhang told Xinhua News that the song was inspired by US actress Anne Hathaway’s role in the movie The Devil Wears Prada (时尚女魔头). “I wanted to send a message about girls’ power that girls can be strong and independent, but also cute,” she said. Online supporters were quick to comment (评论). One fan said. “What huge gap (差距) there is between her and me! Thirty minutes is the time I spend finishing a meal.” As a ninth-grader at Shenzhen Arts School, Zhang is studying violin. In 2019, she uploaded her first video on Bilibili. She quickly won many fans. In her videos, everything from bottles to pieces of candy can become musical instruments. A video titled “How to make music at school without instruments” has been watched over 1.9 million times. In the video, she makes musical loops (循环伴奏) with a pencil bag and desk. “I often come up with funny ideas and then put them into my songs,” Zhang said. “It’s a great outlet (途径) for me to express myself, and in this way I won’t be too sad about negative things in life.” Zhang told Xinhua that she wants to study at a top music school, such as the Berklee College of Music in the US, and become singer-songwriter in the future. “Everything in life can be written into songs. I will keep on singing,” she said. 32. The reading material is actually ________. A. a true story B. a fairy tale C. a scene of drama D. a piece of news 33. What is the name of Zhang’s latest song?

B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了想成为作曲家的张宇宣把很多东西变成了乐器，并把自己的想法写成了歌曲。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Zhang told Xinhua News…”可知，阅读材料实际上是一条新闻。故选D。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Zhang Yuxuan, a 15-year-old vlogger on Bilibili, shared how she wrote the song SHE in her latest video.”可知，张宇宣最新歌曲的名字是SHE。故选A。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据“The song is at the top of the charts on Bilibili with over 10 million views. Zhang now has 1.28 million fans.”可知，这首歌以超过1000万次的浏览量位居哔哩哔哩排行榜的榜首，张宇宣现在拥有128万粉丝，因此她在哔哩哔哩上很受欢迎。故选C。 【35题详解】 最佳标题题。本文主要介绍了想成为作曲家的张宇宣把很多东西变成了乐器，并把自己的想法写成了歌曲，所以“A teenage songwriter”最符合题意。故选B。 D Are you really trying hard? Every evening, after returning home from school, you play with your phone for a few minutes, quickly turning into a few hours. When you finally try to finish your homework, you can only write a few words before you feel bored and tired. To stop from feeling sleepy, you decide to play a video game—just a few rounds (轮), to refresh your mind so you can start working again. But when you check the clock, it’s already the early hours of morning. Then you realize there’s no time left. So you hold your pen and get to work complaining (抱怨) there isn’t enough time to finish your task, and at the same time accepting praises (赞扬) from your classmates saying that you’re hard-working. You tell yourself you stay up late because you are a hard worker, never admitting (承认) that the only person you’re fooling is yourself. This somehow offers you a sense of achievement. However, you will soon start to feel ashamed, because you find that you’re achieving little, even though you feel busy every day and that all your time is spent imagining a beautiful future, without actually doing what’s needed to make that dream reality. In your mind, you work harder than anyone else, but your results show this to be a lie. So please, have rethink. Let’s stop lying. Are you really trying hard, or are you hardly trying? 36. The most possible readers of this passage are ________. A. workers B. gamers C. teachers D. students 37. According to the writer, the correct order of your activities after school is ________. ①playing video games ② feeling bored and tired ③playing with your phone ④complaining about time A. ①②③④ B. ③①④② C. ③②①④ D. ②①④③ 38.

A. remind us to stop fooling ourselves B. tell us the bad results of telling lies C. explain why some people work late at night D. teach us how to make our dream a reality 【答案】36. D 37. C 38. B 39. D 40. A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了一些自以为很努力的学生的表现，告诉我们要真的去努力，不要再自欺欺人了。 【36题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Are you really trying hard? Every evening, after returning home from school, you play with your phone for a few minutes, quickly turning into a few hours.”可推测出，这篇文章最可能的读者是学生。故选D。 【37题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Every evening, after returning home from school, you play with your phone for a few minutes, quickly turning into a few hours. When you finally try to finish your homework, you can only write a few words before you feel bored and tired.”以及第二段中“To stop from feeling sleepy, you decide to play a video game—just a few rounds, to refresh your mind so you can start working again.”以及第三段中“So you hold your pen and get to work complaining there isn’t enough time to finish your task, and at the same time accepting praises from your classmates saying that you’re hard-working.”可知，正确的排列顺序为③②①④。故选C。 【38题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“So you hold your pen and get to work complaining there isn’t enough time to finish your task, and at the same time accepting praises from your classmates saying that you’re hard-working.”可知，喜欢把作业推迟到深夜的原因是，可以从别人那里听到许多好听的话。故选B。 【39题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第五段中“In your mind, you work harder than anyone else, but your results show this to be a lie.”可知，在你看来，你比任何人都努力，但你的结果表明这是一个谎言。根据前文含义以及结合选项可知，此处的“this”指的是“your hard work”。故选D。 【40题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段中“So please, have rethink. Let’s stop lying. Are you really trying hard, or are you hardly trying?”以及通读全文可知，作者写这篇文章的目的是为了提醒我们要真的去努力，不要再自欺欺人了。故选A。 Ⅸ. 任务型阅读。（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文，按要求完成下面小题。 Developed by US company OpenAI ChatGPT is getting popular, winning 100 million users since it came out in November 2022. People can use the robot to write stories and emails, answer questions and so on. In its own words, it is “a language model trained in a lot of Internet text to help users get human-like text.” Compared with Siri or other chatbots (聊天机器人) ChatGPT uses a much bigger database (数据库) for training. It uses stronger software (软件) and hardware (硬件) to learn things by itself. For example, if it provides a wrong answer to your question, you can tell it the right one and it will correct. “It’s a totally different product,” computer scientist Liu Xiaoguang from Nankai University said. “Its knowledge level is similar to a university student. That’s why it surprises the world.” But the big problems with ChatGPT are that it makes mistakes and even gives false information. When Rezza, a 28-year-old from Indonesia, used the robot to write an article, “it gave out wrong information,” he said. Since the robot is trained using words from the Internet, it can also pick up on the Internet’s biases (偏见) about certain groups. These are all things that need to be dealt with. 41. ChatGPT came out ________________________________. 42. People can use the robot ________________________________. 43. How does ChatGPT learn things by itself? ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 44. Why does ChatGPT surprise the world? ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 45. Do you like to use ChatGPT?

It learns things by using stronger software and hardware. 44. Because its knowledge level is similar to a university student. 45. Yes, I do. Because it can provide services all day without time restrictions, which is very convenient for me.(言之有理即可) 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了ChatGPT，以及ChatGPT的优点和不足。 【41题详解】 根据文中的句子“ChatGPT is getting popular, winning 100 million users since it came out in November 2022.”可知，ChatGPT问世的时间是2022年11月。故填in November 2022。 【42题详解】 根据文中的句子“People can use the robot to write stories and emails, answer questions and so on.”可知，人们可以使用机器人写故事和电子邮件，回答问题等等。故填to write stories and emails, answer questions and so on。 【43题详解】 根据文中的句子“It uses stronger software (软件) and hardware (硬件) to learn things by itself.”可知，ChatGPT 使用更强大的软件和硬件学习。故填It learns things by using stronger software and hardware。 【44题详解】 根据文中的句子“Its knowledge level is similar to a university student. That’s why it surprises the world.”可知，ChatGPT让世界震惊是因为它的知识水平和一个大学生差不多。故填Because its knowledge level is similar to a university student。 【45题详解】 这是一个开放性问题，答案不唯一。Yes, I do. Because it can provide services all day without time restrictions, which is very convenient for me。 第四部分 情景交际（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 补全对话。根据下面对话中的情境，在每个空白处填入一个适当的语句，使对话恢复完整。 A: Hi, Nancy!

Yes, it’s the panda! Pandas are so popular because they are cute and shy. They are also friendly to people. They like eating bamboo. It seems that they like sleeping all day if possible. It is known that pandas are endangered. For one thing, many people cut down lots of trees so they may have terrible living conditions. For another, they may die of illnesses easily because many of them are out of protection. I hope the government can build more natural panda homes. Also, it is necessary that everyone should treat them as our friends and protect their homes. 【解析】 【详解】[总体分析] ① 题材：本文是一篇材料作文； ② 时态：时态为“一般现在时”； ③ 提示：写作要点已给出，考生应注意不要遗漏“信息提示”中每一项内容，适当添加细节，并突出写作重点。 [写作步骤] 第一步，表明写作意图。以猜谜语的形式开头介绍熊猫； 第二步，从熊猫的个性、生活习惯、危险及措施等方面具体介绍； 第三步，书写结语，表达自己的感受，提出倡议。 [亮点词汇] ①be friendly to对……友好 ②It seems that似乎 ③cut down砍伐，减少 ④die of死于 [高分句型] ①Pandas are so popular because they are cute and shy.(because引导原因状语从句) ②I hope the government can build more natural panda homes.(宾语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 宽城满族自治县2023—2024学年度第二学期期末质量监测 八年级英语试题 考生注意：1. 本试卷共8页，总分120分，考试时间120分钟。 2. 答题前，考生务必将姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡相应位置上。 3. 所有试题答案要求填涂在答题卡上，交卷时只交答题卡。 第一部分：听力（30分） Ⅰ. 听句子，选出句子中所包含的信息。（共5小题，每小题1分，计5分） 1.

People like swimming in summer because water makes them cool. To make sure the safety (安全), remember these tips (提示): ◆ Let your parents or friends know before going swimming. ◆ Don’t get into water when you are alone. ◆ If there is a “No swimming” sign, don’t get into water. 26. The tips are about ________. A Summer B. Swimming C. Help D. Students 27. Can you swim when you are alone? A. Yes, we can. B. No, we can’t. C. Sure. D. I don’t know. 28. The sign “No swimming” means ________. A. You can’t swim here B. You can swim here C. You can swim here with your parents or friends D. You can get into water B ①Recently, I have finished four space tasks. I stayed in space for more than 43 days, and complete six spacewalks for 43 hours and 13 minutes, so I have a lot of experience there. Today, I want to share some information unusual: what it’s like to eat in space. ②People often ask me if Tang—a kind of orange drink mix—is still taken in space. Don’t laugh, but we still drink it. Today’s space foods look like foods we’re used to eating every day. Foods, like nuts (坚果) or brownies (布朗尼蛋糕), can be taken on board as much as possible. But things like macaroni (通心面) or noodles would be specially prepared, then kept and packaged (打包) to stop them going everywhere. It’s a difficult but necessary process. However, food on a space task can be quite rich and various, can’t it? ③The microgravity (微重力) on the space station changes things in some ways. For one thing, there is no “up” or “down” in space. It also changes how things taste. On Earth, most of your blood is usually below your heart. In space, you’re weightless, so the sharing of blood in your body changes. One result is lowering your sense of taste, at least at first. This happened to me on one task. When I took sugar candy, I wasn’t able to taste it until the ninth day. ④Food can be a real happiness in space. For us, eating is more than just getting power and energy. Familiar foods and tastes can remind us of home and keep us feeling that we still keep in touch with Earth. 29. Who might the writer be? A. A teacher. B. A scientist. C. An astronaut. D. A police artist. 30. When could “I” taste the sugar candy after taking it on the space station? A. Until the ninth day. B. While he was taking it. C. 43 days later. D. 13 minutes later. 31. How is the passage organized? A. B. C. D. C “I was having a math class when suddenly, a piece of music came into my mind. I quickly wrote it down and finished the song in 30 minutes as soon as I got home.” Zhang Yuxuan, a 15-year-old vlogger on Bilibili, shared how she wrote the song SHE in her latest video. The song is at the top of the charts on Bilibili with over 10 million views. Zhang now has 1.28 million fans. Zhang told Xinhua News that the song was inspired by US actress Anne Hathaway’s role in the movie The Devil Wears Prada (时尚女魔头). “I wanted to send a message about girls’ power that girls can be strong and independent, but also cute,” she said. Online supporters were quick to comment (评论) One fan said. “What huge gap (差距) there is between her and me! Thirty minutes is the time I spend finishing a meal.” As a ninth-grader at Shenzhen Arts School, Zhang is studying violin. In 2019, she uploaded her first video on Bilibili. She quickly won many fans. In her videos, everything from bottles to pieces of candy can become musical instruments. A video titled “How to make music at school without instruments” has been watched over 1.9 million times. In the video, she makes musical loops (循环伴奏) with a pencil bag and desk. “I often come up with funny ideas and then put them into my songs,” Zhang said. “It’s a great outlet (途径) for me to express myself, and in this way I won’t be too sad about negative things in life.” Zhang told Xinhua that she wants to study at a top music school, such as the Berklee College of Music in the US, and become singer-songwriter in the future. “Everything in life can be written into songs. I will keep on singing,” she said. 32. The reading material is actually ________. A. a true story B. a fairy tale C. a scene of drama D. a piece of news 33. What is the name of Zhang’s latest song? A. SHE. B. Anne Hathaway. C. Berklee. D. The Devil Wears Prada. 34. It’s clear that ________. A. Zhang Yuxuan likes wearing prada B. Zhang Yuxuan is a student in Grade 8 C. Zhang Yuxuan is very popular on Bilibili D. Zhang Yuxuan can’t write songs without instruments 35. Which of the following can be the best title for the reading material? A. SHE has strong girls’ power B. A teenage songwriter C. A special art school D. A famous violinist D Are you really trying hard? Every evening, after returning home from school, you play with your phone for a few minutes, quickly turning into a few hours. When you finally try to finish your homework, you can only write a few words before you feel bored and tired. To stop from feeling sleepy, you decide to play a video game—just a few rounds (轮), to refresh your mind so you can start working again. But when you check the clock, it’s already the early hours of morning. Then you realize there’s no time left. So you hold your pen and get to work complaining (抱怨) there isn’t enough time to finish your task, and at the same time accepting praises (赞扬) from your classmates saying that you’re hard-working. You tell yourself you stay up late because you are a hard worker, never admitting (承认) that the only person you’re fooling is yourself. This somehow offers you a sense of achievement. However, you will soon start to feel ashamed, because you find that you’re achieving little, even though you feel busy every day and that all your time is spent imagining a beautiful future, without actually doing what’s needed to make that dream reality. In your mind, you work harder than anyone else, but your results show this to be a lie. So please, have rethink. Let’s stop lying. Are you really trying hard, or are you hardly trying? 36. The most possible readers of this passage are ________. A. workers B. gamers C. teachers D. students 37. According to the writer, the correct order of your activities after school is ________. ①playing video games ② feeling bored and tired ③playing with your phone ④complaining about time A. ①②③④ B. ③①④② C. ③②①④ D. ②①④③ 38.

A. it is easier for you to achieve your dream B. you will hear many sweet words from others C. working at night helps to save a lot of time D. you can have more time to refresh your mind 39. The underlined word “this” in Para. 5 refers to ________. A. your dream B. your future C. your achievement D. your hard work 40. The writer’s purpose of writing the passage is to ________. A. remind us to stop fooling ourselves B. tell us the bad results of telling lies C. explain why some people work late at night D. teach us how to make our dream a reality Ⅸ. 任务型阅读。（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文，按要求完成下面小题。 Developed by US company OpenAI, ChatGPT is getting popular, winning 100 million users since it came out in November 2022. People can use the robot to write stories and emails, answer questions and so on. In its own words, it is “a language model trained in a lot of Internet text to help users get human-like text.” Compared with Siri or other chatbots (聊天机器人), ChatGPT uses a much bigger database (数据库) for training. It uses stronger software (软件) and hardware (硬件) to learn things by itself. For example, if it provides a wrong answer to your question, you can tell it the right one and it will correct. “It’s a totally different product,” computer scientist Liu Xiaoguang from Nankai University said. “Its knowledge level is similar to a university student. That’s why it surprises the world.” But the big problems with ChatGPT are that it makes mistakes and even gives false information. When Rezza, a 28-year-old from Indonesia, used the robot to write an article, “it gave out wrong information,” he said. Since the robot is trained using words from the Internet, it can also pick up on the Internet’s biases (偏见) about certain groups. These are all things that need to be dealt with. 41.
