For centuries, people in China have used an ancient counting tool to help solve such problems. The tool is called “abacus”. In Chinese, it is known as “suanpan”. An abacus has a rectangular (长方形的) wooden frame. It is divided into the upper part and the lower part by a horizontal (水平的) stick. A series of cross rods (棍子) extend from the top to the bottom of the frame (框架). Each rod has seven sliding beads (滑动的珠子), with two in the upper part and five in the lower part. Each of the two beads in the upper part has a value of 5, while each of the beads in the lower part has a value of 1. Beginning at the right side of the abacus, the first rod represents (代表) ones. The second rod represents tens and the third represents hundreds. This pattern continues. A traditional abacus with 13 rods can represent very large numbers. Besides counting, a Chinese abacus can also be used to do addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. It helped ancient Chinese people solve all kinds of Maths problems they met in their daily life. The Chinese abacus used to be the simplest calculating device for people in all trades in ancient China. A mathematician (数学家), Xu Yue at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty first invented it. A famous mathematician, Cheng Dawei in Ming Dynasty made it popular. To make people understand and use it easily, he also published a book called Suanfa Tong Zong. And this device has been equally famous to the “Four Great Inventions in Ancient China”. Today, people in Asia and Africa still often use it in daily life. 16. What did ancient people use to solve Maths problems? A. Calculators. B. Computers. C. Abacuses. D. Nothing. 17. The underlined word “extend” in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by “________”. A. end B. turn C. become D. spread 18. What number does the picture show according to the abacus? A. One, four and seven. B. Six, four and seven. C. Six hundred and forty-seven. D. One hundred and forty-two. 19. An abacus can do the following EXCEPT ________. A. painting B. counting C. addition D. division 20. The last paragraph mainly tells us ________. A. how to use the abacus B. the history of the abacus C. what an abacus can do D. the usage of the abacus 【答案】16. C 17. D 18. C 19. A 20. B 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了算盘。 【16题详解】 细节理解题。根据“For centuries, people in China have used an ancient counting tool to help solve such problems. The tool is called ‘abacus’.”可知古人使用算盘来解决数学问题。故选C。 【17题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“A series of cross rods (棍子) extend from the top to the bottom of the frame (框架).”可知“extend”在段落中的意思是指“延伸”，因此可以用“spread”替换。故选D。 【18题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Each of the two beads in the upper part has a value of 5, while each of the beads in the lower part has a value of 1. Beginning at the right side of the abacus, the first rod represents (代表) ones. The second rod represents tens and the third represents hundreds.”可知上面两颗珠子中的每一颗都代表5，而下面珠子中的每一颗都代表1。从算盘的最右侧开始，第一根杆代表个位，第二根杆代表十位，第三根杆代表百位。因此图片所表达的数字是六百四十七。故选C。 【19题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Besides counting, a Chinese abacus can also be used to do addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.”可知除了计数之外，中国算盘还可以用来进行加法、减法、乘法和除法运算。故选A。 【20题详解】 主旨大意题。根据“The Chinese abacus used to be the simplest calculating device for people in all trades in ancient China.”可知本段介绍了算盘的历史。故选B。 Our skin might be tougher than you might think, as it can heal (修复) itself repeatedly over time. Scientists have made a new material that is as tough as human skin. This electronic skin can heal itself more than 5,000 times! Scientists from Saudi Arabia made the new “e-skin”. In fact, e-skin is not something new. Scientists have made e-skin before to help repair human skin and to make prosthetic (假肢的) arms and legs. But other kinds of e-skin are usually not very stretchy (可延展的), so they break easily. They are also not as sensitive (敏感的) as real skin. However, the new e-skin has solved these problems. Scientists used a hydrogel (水凝胶) to make the e-skin, which makes it very stretchy. Then they put a layer of sensors (传感器) on the hydrogel. These sensors can respond (反应) in less than 0.1 seconds and sense things from 20cm away. When used in humans, the new e-skin can get medical information, such as someone’s blood pressure (血压). But the scientists hope for a future for this technology that is “beyond biology”. It could be used to build soft robotics (机器人), aircraft and even furniture one day. 21. Scientists made e-skin before in order to ________. A. repair human skin and make prosthetic arms and legs B. reduce the cost of using human skin C. replace human skin D. measure human’s blood pressure 22. Which is NOT the problem that the old e-skin has? A. It can break easily. B. It is not sensitive. C. It is expensive. D. It is not very stretchy. 23. How can e-skin be more sensitive, which is the right order? ①The sensors on the skin responded. ②Scientists put a layer of sensors on the hydrogel. ③Scientists used a hydrogel to make the e-skin. A. ②①③ B. ③②① C. ②③① D. ③①② 24. Which field has the e-skin already been used? A. Medical care. B. Aircraft. C. Furniture. D. Robot technology. 25. In which part of the newspaper can we see the passage? A Business. B. Environment. C. Person. D. Technology. 【答案】21. A 22. C 23. B 24. A 25. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了人类发明了一种像人类皮肤一样能自愈的电子皮肤，讲述了其原理和优点。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段第二句“Scientists have made e-skin before to help repair human skin and to make prosthetic arms and legs.”可知， A项“修复人类皮肤，并制作假肢”符合，故选A。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“But other kinds of e-skin are usually not very stretchy, so they break easily. They are also not as sensitive as real skin.“可知，C项“它很昂贵”文中未提及，故选C。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Scientists used a hydrogel to make the e-skin... and sense things from 20 cm away.”可知，科学家们使用一种水凝胶来制造这种电子皮肤，然后他们在水凝胶上放了一层传感器，这些传感器可以在0.1秒内做出反应，即③②①，故选B。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“When used in humans, the new e-skin can get medical information, such as someone’s blood pressure.”可知，电子皮肤已经用在了医疗上，A项“医疗护理”符合，故选A。 【25题详解】 文章出处题。本文主要讲述了人类发明了一种像人类皮肤一样能自愈的电子皮肤，属于新科技领域，所以可能在报纸的科技板块看到本文。故选D。 第二节 以下是一则短文，请阅读短文，并从下列六个句子中选择五个还原到原文中，使原文的意思完整、连贯。 Today’s smart phones can do almost anything, but we should use them wisely.

Mobile payment is liked by many people. With the widespread use of smartphones, mobile payment has become increasingly popular, revolutionizing our daily lives. Now, we can simply scan QR codes to make payments in supermarkets, cinemas, restaurants, and many other places, making transactions more convenient and efficient. For instance, when we’re at the checkout counter, we no longer have to fumble with cash or wait for the card machine to process our payment. With a few taps on our phones, the transaction is done. However, with the convenience of mobile payment comes the temptation to overspend. We must maintain a rational consumer mindset, thinking twice before making purchases, learning to save, and buying only what we truly need. Let’s embrace mobile payment while also practicing responsible spending habits. 【解析】 【详解】[总体分析] ① 题材：本文是一篇话题作文； ② 时态：时态以“一般现在时”主； ③ 提示：写作要点已给出，考生应注意不要遗漏提示的要点，适当添加细节，并突出写作重点。 [写作步骤] 第一步，开门见山引入主题，引出下文介绍移动支付。（开头已给出） 第二步，具体阐述根据表格提示，介绍移动支付。 第三步，书写结语。呼吁人们理性消费。 [亮点词汇] ① widespread adj. 广泛的 ② increasingly adv. 不断增长地 ③ revolutionize v. 变革；改变 ④ transaction n. 交易 ⑤ efficient adj. 高效的 ⑥ for instance 例如 ⑦ fumble v. 胡乱摸找 ⑧ temptation n. 诱惑 ⑨ overspend v. 超支 ⑩ maintain a rational mindset 保持理性的心态 [高分句型] ① With the widespread use of smartphones, mobile payment has become increasingly popular, revolutionizing our daily lives.（动名词revolutionizing表伴随） ② Let’s embrace mobile payment while also practicing responsible spending habits.（祈使句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 广东省深圳市龙岗区部分学校2023-2024学年八年级上学期 期中英语试卷 第一部分选择题 Ⅰ. 完型填空（10分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的A、B、C 、D四个选项中选出能填入相应空白处的最佳选 项，并在答题卡上将相应字母编号涂黑。 Once upon a time, a king went to a village.

Last year, six classic Chinese cartoons came out on the video platform again. Let’s see how old artists put Chinese culture and art into the cartoons to make them classic. The Legend of Sealed Book tells the story of the boy Dansheng. He practices great tricks from the book to help people. The film uses face makeup from the Peking Opera. It helps to show the characters’ personalities. Lovely Dansheng looks like wawasheng, roles for kids in Peking Opera. A bad person looks like a clown, with a large white part in the center of his face. Little Tadpole Looking for Mummy is China’s first ink wash cartoon. Artists drew all the animals, plants and rocks with ink and brush. They learned from the great artist Qi Baishi. Though it’s only about 15 minutes long, it took lots of work. Artists drew everything by hand. One second of the cartoon needed 24 pictures! The 2020 cartoon series Fog Hills of Five Element also uses this style. Pigsy Eats Watermelon is China’s first paper cutting cartoon. This 15-minute cartoon came out in 1958. Artists cut Zhu Bajie out of colored paper. Then they moved its body parts and let it eat the watermelon. Making a paper cutting cartoon was not easy. The artists failed at first. The characters’ moves were not stable (平稳的).

For centuries, people in China have used an ancient counting tool to help solve such problems. The tool is called “abacus”. In Chinese, it is known as “suanpan”. An abacus has a rectangular (长方形) wooden frame. It is divided into the upper part and the lower part by a horizontal (水平的) stick. A series of cross rods (棍子) extend from the top to the bottom of the frame (框架). Each rod has seven sliding beads (滑动的珠子), with two in the upper part and five in the lower part. Each of the two beads in the upper part has a value of 5, while each of the beads in the lower part has a value of 1. Beginning at the right side of the abacus, the first rod represents (代表) ones. The second rod represents tens and the third represents hundreds. This pattern continues. A traditional abacus with 13 rods can represent very large numbers. Besides counting, a Chinese abacus can also be used to do addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. It helped ancient Chinese people solve all kinds of Maths problems they met in their daily life. The Chinese abacus used to be the simplest calculating device for people in all trades in ancient China. A mathematician (数学家), Xu Yue at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty first invented it. A famous mathematician, Cheng Dawei in Ming Dynasty made it popular. To make people understand and use it easily, he also published a book called Suanfa Tong Zong. And this device has been equally famous to the “Four Great Inventions in Ancient China”. Today, people in Asia and Africa still often use it in daily life. 16 What did ancient people use to solve Maths problems? A. Calculators. B. Computers. C. Abacuses. D. Nothing. 17. The underlined word “extend” in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by “________”. A. end B. turn C. become D. spread 18. What number does the picture show according to the abacus? A. One, four and seven. B. Six, four and seven. C. Six hundred and forty-seven. D. One hundred and forty-two. 19. An abacus can do the following EXCEPT ________. A. painting B. counting C. addition D. division 20. The last paragraph mainly tells us ________. A. how to use the abacus B. the history of the abacus C. what an abacus can do D. the usage of the abacus Our skin might be tougher than you might think, as it can heal (修复) itself repeatedly over time. Scientists have made a new material that is as tough as human skin. This electronic skin can heal itself more than 5,000 times! Scientists from Saudi Arabia made the new “e-skin”. In fact, e-skin is not something new. Scientists have made e-skin before to help repair human skin and to make prosthetic (假肢的) arms and legs. But other kinds of e-skin are usually not very stretchy (可延展的), so they break easily. They are also not as sensitive (敏感的) as real skin. However, the new e-skin has solved these problems. Scientists used a hydrogel (水凝胶) to make the e-skin, which makes it very stretchy. Then they put a layer of sensors (传感器) on the hydrogel. These sensors can respond (反应) in less than 0.1 seconds and sense things from 20cm away. When used in humans, the new e-skin can get medical information, such as someone’s blood pressure (血压). But the scientists hope for a future for this technology that is “beyond biology”. It could be used to build soft robotics (机器人), aircraft and even furniture one day. 21. Scientists made e-skin before in order to ________. A. repair human skin and make prosthetic arms and legs B. reduce the cost of using human skin C. replace human skin D. measure human’s blood pressure 22. Which is NOT the problem that the old e-skin has? A. It can break easily. B. It is not sensitive. C. It is expensive. D. It is not very stretchy. 23. How can e-skin be more sensitive, which is the right order? ①The sensors on the skin responded. ②Scientists put a layer of sensors on the hydrogel. ③Scientists used a hydrogel to make the e-skin. A. ②①③ B. ③②① C. ②③① D. ③①② 24. Which field has the e-skin already been used? A. Medical care. B. Aircraft. C. Furniture. D. Robot technology. 25. In which part of the newspaper can we see the passage? A. Business. B. Environment. C. Person. D.
