It has received over 30 thousand comments(评论) on Douban and has got 8.9 points out of 10. In the show, 10 young people get t 1 as a team. They work hard for 190 days on a 9.5-hectare farm to grow 25,000 kilograms of crops. This is China’s f 2 farming-themed(种地主题的) show. It’s a new experiment for Chinese variety shows（综艺节目）. Before this, the British farming show Clarkson’s Farm was popular among Chinese audiences. Clarkson, a rich man with no farming experience, ran his farm with funny and changing ideas. It made people l 3 and showed the challenges of farming. Believe in the Land shares s 4 similar by showing the farming experiences of 10 young people. Some other “slow TV programs” also show famous s 5 living in the countryside. But Believe in the Land stands out as it shows not only the beauty of country life, but also the hard work behind it. The young people started from scratch (从零开始) to make their own tools and furniture. They lived in a small, old house near the fields, wore dirty clothes in the mud and worked from sunrise to sunset. “A 6 the young people didn’t do it perfectly, their experience of working in the muddy fields and unloading(卸下) tons of fertilizer (肥料) is moving,” wrote an internet user on Douban. “Watching their hard work m 7 me understand the saying ‘No pains, no gains’ more than ever,” another audience wrote on Sina Weibo. （23-24八年级上·上海静安·期中）Mr. William was very deaf (耳聋) ，but he did not like people to k 1 this.     One evening he invited some friends to dinner.

When it ended, everyone laughed louder than ever. Mr. William smiled happily. He was very g 232 that his story was so funny. But he did not know that his story was the one that his friend had just told.

Today, working out through online videos is becoming very p 1 . Since the Internet is widely used, it’s very easy for us to do so. That means we can work out anytime anywhere. One of my friends, Lin Fei, followed short workout videos to do daily exercise. “With live programs, I feel like working out with my friends, which e 2 me to hold on to the last minute,” she said. Another friend of mine, Michael, told me that workout videos let him feel so comfortable. “I have a fear of working out at the gym (健身房), because I don’t like being watched by others. Working out at home makes working out much more enjoyable,” he said. With their examples, I d 3 to give it a try. When I told my plan to my elder sister, a P.E. teacher, she reminded me that workout videos could be helpful but might still carry some p 4 . “You will be less willing (愿意的) to work out to your best w 5 being with someone in person. Working out at the gym allows you to have advice in real time and get pushed harder,” my sister said to me. “Well, if you really want to have a try, first, choose proper programs or videos. That’s very important. And then ask your friends for advice. Their experiences can give you a good sight into what you can expect. H 6 , don’t be addicted (沉迷的) to it. You should try different ways to work out to be healthy.” At her suggestions, I finally followed an online workout program with personalized help that is held for three months. After the first period of training, I felt it very practical and helpful when I put in the right amount (量) of work along with a strong will. Compared with going to the gym, using online videos to work out is a much cheaper and time-saving c 7 . But it can be difficult sometimes when I’m too lazy or too busy to stick to it. （21-22八年级上·上海徐汇·期中）在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通顺，每空格限填一词，首字母已给 “GRANNY HUANG, Granny Huang, teach me spinning (纺纱), teach me weaving (织布) ...”      Have you ever read this ballad (民谣)? Do you know who Granny Huang refers to? If you answered “Huang Daopo,” then-Bingo! -you are right! Huang Daopo was one of the most famous women in the Chinese textile industry (纺织工业). The woman, however, had an u 1 childhood. Huang was born in Wunijing — today’s Huajing Town in Xuhui, Shanghai — about 700 years ago. Her family was very poor. At the age of ten, she was sold into marriage. Unable to bear the ill-treatment of her parents-in-law, Huang ran away from home. She hid (躲藏) h 2 in a ship and was accidentally brought to Yazhou — today’s Sanya in Hainan. Yazhou was famous for its cotton. The Li (黎族) people there had started a textile industry. Huang stayed with Li women for more than 30 years and learned spinning and weaving from them. Around 1285, Huang r 3 to Shanghai and stayed in Songjiang. She taught local villagers to spin and weave. Meanwhile, she improved weaving machines and tools, allowing people to work f 4 and produce better-quality textiles. With Huang’s efforts, Songjiang saw its textile industry develop quickly. The spinning and weaving techniques (工艺) then spread a 5 the city. Soon, Shanghai became one of China’s most famous cotton processing centers. Naturally, Huang was highly respected by people in Shanghai. After she died, the locals built a temple in her hometown to remember her. They also created many ballads about her. Now, a new memorial hall (纪念堂) for Huang Daopo has been built in Huajing, Shanghai. The hall has a collection of more than 300 exhibits. Visitors can learn more about Granny Huang and the h 6 of Shanghai’s textile industry. They can even try their hands at making cotton products like scarves and cloth bags. （22-23八年级上·上海杨浦·期中）Cows Affect Earth’s Climate Many scientists believe that Earth is slowly heating up and that greenhouse gases are a likely cause. These gases create a “b 1 ” that traps the sun’s heat in Earth’s atmosphere. As a result, there have been strange weather patterns around the world, such as storms and melting polar ice. The greenhouse gases include carbon dioxide, emitted (散发) by decaying trees and certain burning fuels in cars and power plants. Methane is another greenhouse gas. The problem with greenhouse gases is that their molecules (分子) easily absorb radiation (热辐射) from the sun, and they hold onto the radiation. Methane is a particularly problematic gas because each of its molecules traps t 2 more heat than a molecule of carbon dioxide. During the past 100 years, the amount of methane in Earth’s atmosphere has risen by 145 percent, and it’s possible that it will continue to rise f 3 . So, where does the methane come from? Animals cause a lot of it! Many people believe that cows are adding more pollution to the environment than cars, surprisingly. When an animal eats, bacteria b 4 down the food inside its gut. This forms methane, an invisible gas. Nearly all animals r 5 this gas, often by burping. Worldwide, 28 percent of all methane that enters the atmosphere comes from livestock (牲畜). One of the worst offenders is cows. There are 1.5 billion cows worldwide. Due to the fact that methane holds more h 6 than carbon dioxide, it’s no wonder that people are blaming cows! Although these facts are startling, there is hope that we can cut down on the amount of methane gas. E 7 have shown that a type of red seaweed can be dried and added to cow feed. When only a small amount of seaweed is added to the cow feed, the cow does not n 8 it. Still, this small percentage makes a huge difference, cutting the cow’s methane production by 70 percent. And, cows that consume this seaweed are healthier, too. If people rely on this seaweed as a final s 9 , there is only one problem-there isn’t enough of it in the sea at the present time. Right now, all the red seaweed is picked by divers by hand. This is simply the start of seaweed farming. T 10 , it may take decades to increase the amount of seaweed readily available to farmers for their gassy cows. Still, it’s a relief to know that scientists are constantly working to address this issue. （22-23八年级上·上海杨浦·期中）Why Is It “Eleven, Twelve” Instead of “Oneteen, Twoteen” English number words are pretty logical after a point. From twenty-one to ninety-nine, the same principle applies. The units (个位数) f 1 the tens. But the teens are different. Not only does the ten (which is where the word teen comes from) come after the units place (10+7 is not teen-seven but seventeen), eleven and twelve don’t fit in at all. Eleven and twelve come from the Old English words “endleofan” and “twelf”, which can be traced back further to a time when they were “ain+lif” and “twa+lif”. So what did this “-lif” mean? The best guess is that it is from a r 2 for “to leave”. “Ainlif” is “one left (after ten)” and “twalif” is “two left (after ten).” So then the question is, why don’t we have “threelif”, “fourlif”, “fiflif”, “sixlif” and so on? The answer has to do with the development of number systems over history. A long, long time ago, when the number words were first being formed, most people didn’t have much reason to distinguish numbers above ten. In fact, some languages of a 3 cultures only have number words for one, two, and many. So the basic number words up to ten formed first, then they were extended a bit with the“-lif” ending. Maybe there was a “threelif”, “fourlif” type system, but 11 and 12 were used more often in daily life. Many number systems are based on 12 because it can be divided e 4 by many numbers, such as 2, 3, 4 and 6, and because you can count to 12 on one hand by using your thumb to count the three knuckles (指关节) on each of the other fingers. (We have the word “dozen” because 12 is so useful). If 11 and 12 are being used more frequently, the forms for them will stick, even when another system starts to d 5 . You can extend that idea to other number words. We have more irregularities of pronunciation in the tens (“twenty”, “thirty”, “fifty” instead of “twoty”, “threety”, “fivety”) because we’ve been making everyday use of those numbers for longer than we have for “two hundred”, “three hundred”, and “five hundred”). “Thousand” is an old word, but its original sense was “a great multitude”. It is not a specific number, but a very useful idea. The words we needed earliest, and used the most frequently are usually the most irregular. So the short answer is, we created words for 11 and 12 a long time ago by calling them “one left after ten” and “two left after ten”. They were more useful to us than the bigger numbers, so we said them more and they became a h 6 that we couldn’t break. （21-22八年级上·上海浦东新·期中）在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通顺，每空格限填一词，首字母已给出。 Ma Yun is one of the richest men in China. Throughout his life, from a loser to a winner, Ma has failed many times. As he said in an interview, “I didn’t pass a key primary school test twice, I failed a middle school test three times.

This is not about making a lot of money. What matters is that we gain happiness from it.” （20-21八年级上·上海浦东新·期中）Although most of us are now stuck at home due to the virus outbreak, there are many people trying to do some sports not only to kill time, but also to help themselves and others stay a 1 during this difficult period.

These gases create a “b 1 ” that traps the sun’s heat in Earth’s atmosphere. As a result, there have been strange weather patterns around the world, such as storms and melting polar ice. The greenhouse gases include carbon dioxide, emitted (散发) by decaying trees and certain burning fuels in cars and power plants. Methane is another greenhouse gas. The problem with greenhouse gases is that their molecules (分子) easily absorb radiation (热辐射) from the sun, and they hold onto the radiation. Methane is a particularly problematic gas because each of its molecules traps t 2 more heat than a molecule of carbon dioxide. During the past 100 years, the amount of methane in Earth’s atmosphere has risen by 145 percent, and it’s possible that it will continue to rise f 3 . So, where does the methane come from? Animals cause a lot of it! Many people believe that cows are adding more pollution to the environment than cars, surprisingly. When an animal eats, bacteria b 4 down the food inside its gut. This forms methane, an invisible gas. Nearly all animals r 5 this gas, often by burping. Worldwide, 28 percent of all methane that enters the atmosphere comes from livestock (牲畜). One of the worst offenders is cows. There are 1.5 billion cows worldwide. Due to the fact that methane holds more h 6 than carbon dioxide, it’s no wonder that people are blaming cows! Although these facts are startling, there is hope that we can cut down on the amount of methane gas. E 7 have shown that a type of red seaweed can be dried and added to cow feed. When only a small amount of seaweed is added to the cow feed, the cow does not n 8 it. Still, this small percentage makes a huge difference, cutting the cow’s methane production by 70 percent. And, cows that consume this seaweed are healthier, too. If people rely on this seaweed as a final s 9 , there is only one problem-there isn’t enough of it in the sea at the present time. Right now, all the red seaweed is picked by divers by hand. This is simply the start of seaweed farming. T 10 , it may take decades to increase the amount of seaweed readily available to farmers for their gassy cows. Still, it’s a relief to know that scientists are constantly working to address this issue. 【答案】 1．(b)lanket 2．(t)erribly 3．(f)urther 4．(b)reaks 5．(r)elease 6．(h)eat 7．(E)xperts 8．(n)otice 9．(s)olution 10．(T)herefore 【导语】本文主要讲述了奶牛影响地球气候的事情。 1．句意：这些气体形成了一个“毯子”，将太阳的热量困在地球大气层中。根据“These gases create”以及“traps the sun’s heat in Earth’s atmosphere”可知气体形成一个“毯子”，把热量困在大气层中，blanket“毯子”，故填(b)lanket。 2．句意：甲烷是一种特别有问题的气体，因为它的每个分子捕获的热量比二氧化碳分子多得多。根据“because each of its molecules traps t...more heat than a molecule of carbon dioxide”可知此处是指甲烷的每个分子捕获的热量比二氧化碳分子多得多，terribly“非常，很”，副词，故填(t)erribly。 3．句意：在过去的100年里，地球大气中甲烷的含量上升了145%，而且有可能还会继续上升。根据“Earth’s atmosphere has risen by 145 percent, and it’s possible that it will continue to rise f...”可知地球大气中甲烷的含量很有可能会继续上升，further“进一步，在更大程度上”符合语境，故填(f)urther。 4．句意：当动物进食时，细菌会在其肠道内分解食物。根据“When an animal eats, bacteria b...down the food inside its gut.”以及“This forms methane, an invisible gas.”可知是指细菌分解食物，然后产生气体，break down“（使）（物质）分解”，句子是一般现在时，主语是第三人称单数，动词用三单形式，故填(b)reaks。 5．句意：几乎所有的动物都通过打嗝释放这种气体。根据“This forms methane, an invisible gas. Nearly all animals r...this gas, often by burping”可知动物通过打嗝释放气体，release“释放”，是动词， 主语是复数，动词用原形，故填(r)elease。 6．句意：由于甲烷比二氧化碳拥有更多的热量，难怪人们指责奶牛！“Due to the fact that methane holds more h...than carbon dioxide”以及上文“more heat than a molecule of carbon dioxide.”可知是指热量，heat“热量”，故填(h)eat。 7．句意：专家们已经证明，一种红色海藻可以晒干，添加到牛饲料中。根据“E...have shown that a type of red seaweed can be dried and added to cow feed.”可知此处指的是专家们，expert“专家”，根据have可知名词用复数，故填(E)xperts。 8．句意：当只在牛饲料中添加少量海藻时，牛不会注意到它。根据“When only a small amount of seaweed is added to the cow feed, the cow does not n...it”可知只在牛饲料中添加少量海藻时，牛是不会注意到的，notice“注意”，是动词， 空前有助动词，动词用原形，故填(n)otice。 9．句意：如果人们依靠这种海藻作为最终的解决方案，那么只有一个问题——目前海洋中没有足够的海藻。根据“If people rely on this seaweed as a final s...”可知是指解决方案，solution“解决方案”，名词，被a修饰，应用单数，故填(s)olution。 10．句意：因此，可能需要几十年的时间来增加农民为他们的奶牛提供的唾手可得的海藻数量。根据“This is simply the start of seaweed farming. T...it may take decades to increase the amount of seaweed readily available to farmers for their gassy cows.”可知此处是指现在，所有的红海藻都是由潜水员手工采摘的，因此可能需要几十年的时间来增加农民为他们的奶牛提供的唾手可得的海藻数量。therefore“因此”。故填(T)herefore。 （22-23八年级上·上海杨浦·期中）Why Is It “Eleven, Twelve” Instead of “Oneteen, Twoteen” English number words are pretty logical after a point. From twenty-one to ninety-nine, the same principle applies. The units (个位数) f 1 the tens. But the teens are different. Not only does the ten (which is where the word teen comes from) come after the units place (10+7 is not teen-seven but seventeen), eleven and twelve don’t fit in at all. Eleven and twelve come from the Old English words “endleofan” and “twelf”, which can be traced back further to a time when they were “ain+lif” and “twa+lif”. So what did this “-lif” mean? The best guess is that it is from a r 2 for “to leave”. “Ainlif” is “one left (after ten)” and “twalif” is “two left (after ten).” So then the question is, why don’t we have “threelif”, “fourlif”, “fiflif”, “sixlif” and so on? The answer has to do with the development of number systems over history. A long, long time ago, when the number words were first being formed, most people didn’t have much reason to distinguish numbers above ten. In fact, some languages of a 3 cultures only have number words for one, two, and many. So the basic number words up to ten formed first, then they were extended a bit with the“-lif” ending. Maybe there was a “threelif”, “fourlif” type system, but 11 and 12 were used more often in daily life. Many number systems are based on 12 because it can be divided e 4 by many numbers, such as 2, 3, 4 and 6, and because you can count to 12 on one hand by using your thumb to count the three knuckles (指关节) on each of the other fingers. (We have the word “dozen” because 12 is so useful). If 11 and 12 are being used more frequently, the forms for them will stick, even when another system starts to d 5 . You can extend that idea to other number words. We have more irregularities of pronunciation in the tens (“twenty”, “thirty”, “fifty” instead of “twoty”, “threety”, “fivety”) because we’ve been making everyday use of those numbers for longer than we have for “two hundred”, “three hundred”, and “five hundred”). “Thousand” is an old word, but its original sense was “a great multitude”. It is not a specific number, but a very useful idea. The words we needed earliest, and used the most frequently are usually the most irregular. So the short answer is, we created words for 11 and 12 a long time ago by calling them “one left after ten” and “two left after ten”. They were more useful to us than the bigger numbers, so we said them more and they became a h 6 that we couldn’t break. 【答案】1．(f)ollow 2．(r)oot 3．(a)ncient 4．(e)asily 5．(d)evelop 6．(h)abit 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了在英语中数词的发展演变历史。 1．句意：个位数跟着十位数。根据“From twenty-one to ninety-nine, the same principle applies.”并结合首字母可知是个位数跟在十位数后面，故填(f)ollow。 2．句意：最好的猜测是它来自于“leave”的词根。根据“‘Ainlif’ is ‘one left (after ten)’ and ‘twalif’ is ‘two left (after ten).’”和首字母可知人们认为-lif是“leave”的词根，故填(r)oot。 3．句意：事实上，古代文化中的一些语言仅仅有数词一，二和许多。根据“So the basic number words up to ten formed first, then they were extended a bit with the ‘-lif’ ending.”并结合首字母可知在古代文化中只有数词一、二和许多，逐渐发展到十，然后在这些基本数词基础上进一步发展，故填(a)ncient。 4．句意：许多数字系统建立在12的基础上因为它能被容易地分成许多数字，如2，3，4和6。根据“such as 2, 3, 4 and 6”并结合首字母可知应是容易地分成这些数字，此处应用副词修饰动词，故填(e)asily。 5．句意：如果11和12正被频繁地使用，那么它们的形式就将保持不变，甚至当另一个系统开始发展时。根据“If 11 and 12 are being used more frequently, the forms for them will stick”和首字母可知应是即使另一个系统发展起来，由于11和12的频繁使用，它们也会保持不变，故填(d)evelop。 6．句意：所以我们更多地说它们并且它们成为一个不能打破的习惯。根据“If 11 and 12 are being used more frequently, the forms for them will stick”和首字母可知应是长久使用形成习惯。故填(h)abit。 （21-22八年级上·上海浦东新·期中）在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通顺，每空格限填一词，首字母已给出。 Ma Yun is one of the richest men in China.

You may feel that life is challenging you from time to time and you can’t take it anymore. You may want to give up right now. But here is a thought, what will h 3 if you overcome the difficulties? Focus (集中) on the f 4 . When an Olympic runner is in a race, he or she is focusing on one thing-the finishing line. You have to focus on the big picture-not just where you are right now. Focus in where you want to be. Make an agreement with your mind and your mouth. Life isn’t crystal stair. One of my favourite poems is called “Crystal Stair” written by Langston Hughes. In that poem, a mother tells her son that life is h 5 , you will meet rocks and hard places, but the e 6 is victory to those who stand their ground and ride the course.
