In China, students have to stay at school from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Chinese students are hard-working. But in America, school starts at 9 a.m.and finishes at 3:30 p.m. In China, students have too much homework to do at home. They haven’t much time to play games. Most of the students feel bored at school. That’s too bad! However, students in America are very happy. They enjoy themselves at school. They have five classes a day. Teachers don’t give them too much homework. Students at school can play lots of sports and other after-school activities. 听第二篇短文，回答第16至20小题。 Next Sunday is Mother’s Day. Do you want to do something special for your mother and make her happy? Here’re some ways to show love to Mother. My friend Sandy planned to make a card with some roses on it. She decided to colour the roses red, blue and pink. My cousin Lily decided to cook a meal for her mother. My classmate Anna planned to tidy up the house for her mother. I planned to write a letter thanking my mother for all she has done for me. Let her know how much I love her. What are you going to do for your mother on Mother’s Day? Do you have any good ideas to help you show your love? When we do something special by ourselves, I’m sure it will be much better than any other gift we could buy. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024-2025学年第一学期期中试卷 八年级英语 第I卷 客观题（共64分） 一、听力测试（本大题共20分，每小题1分） 题号 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 答案 B B A B C C C B A B 题号 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 答案 A B C A B C B B A C 二、单项填空（本大题共14分，每小题1分） 题号 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 答案 B C A B D B D B A C 题号 31 32 33 34 答案 A C D C 三、完形填空（本大题共10分，每小题1分） 题号 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 答案 A B D A C B D C A B 四、阅读理解（本大题共20分，每小题2分） 题号 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 答案 B D A C B C B D C A 第II卷 主观题（共36分） 五、词汇运用（本大题共8分，每小题1分） 55. patient 56. leave 57. sense 58. during 59. once 60. useless 61. yourselves 62. further 六、动词填空（本大题共8分，每小题1分） 63. tastes 64. not get 65. preparing 66. won 67. are 68. is going to be 69. are attending 70. don’t believe 七、完成句子（本大题共5分，第71-72每空0.5分，第73-75每小题1分） 71. cared about 72. looking through 73. places of interest 74. crazy about learning physics 75. couldn’t wait to tidy up 八、阅读短文，回答问题（本大题共5分， 每小题1分） 76.

My cycling journey was very safe in China because I never had a moment in which I felt I was in danger. Wherever I went, there was always phone signal, and even WeChat pay. The beauty of nature was also fantastic. It simply took my breath away when I cycled on the way. With thick forests, blue lakes and green hills, there was so much to see. The food was another highlight of my journey. I got to taste local food in every place I went. My favourite was the spicy food in Sichuan. No matter how much I ate, I never got sick of having different Chinese foods. There were so many different choices. In addition, cycling in China cost less than I thought. I could even save some money during the trip to support a local charity (慈善). The best part was about people. I met people from different ethnic minorities (少数民族) across China and I was even invited to attend a wedding by Tibetan girls. The wedding was amazing, full of dancing, laughter and fun. One time I met a group of Chinese men who were also travelling, but by motorcycle. They invited me to stay with them in the mountains. We cooked fish that we caught from the lake together. It felt like true freedom from the busy feeling of daily life. Another example was impressive. When I met a group of cyclists in their 60s, they cycled better than me. It really encouraged (鼓励) me to push myself and go farther every day. Also, an experienced cyclist saved me when I got a flat tire (爆胎). He helped fix my tire. By the end of my journey, I wanted to keep going. I felt like I could do it forever. It was truly an experience I will never forget. If anyone wants to explore in China, I would highly recommend going by bicycle. 48. What does the writer talk about in Paragraph 3? A. Phone signal. B. Different foods. C. Natural beauty. D. Cheap cost. 49. The underlined word “It” in Paragraph 6 refers to (指代) “ ___________”. A. Tibetan girls inviting the writer to a wedding B. cyclists in their 60s cycling better than the writer C. a group of Chinese men catching fish with the writer D. an experienced cyclist helping the writer to fix a flat tire 50. What is the best title for the passage? A. What a Pleasant Picnic! B. What Great People! C. What an Amazing Journey! D. What a Lucky Day! 第 7 页 共 10 页 C After the haircut It’s getting hot. You go to have your hair cut. The barber Tony cuts off part of your hair and sweeps it away, but your hair’s journey is not over after the haircut. Have you ever thought of planting your old hair after it’s cut off? Some farmers do! What comes up? Not wigs (假发 ), but bigger and tastier crops. Hair is full of nitrogen (氮 ) that helps plants to grow. When cut hair is mixed into soil, the hair breaks down, slowly letting out nitrogen so it can help flowers and vegetables got big a little faster. If you’ve got a wool sweater on, you’re wearing a sheep’s haircut. Sheep grow fine curly (弯曲的) fur called wool. All those curls make air pockets that trap heat, keeping the sheep warm. Farmers shear the sheep in summer, so the sheep don’t feel too hot. And we use the hair to make warm clothes, socks, and hats. Wool can even take in rain without feeling wet. Wool also doesn’t catch fire easily. What does your hair say about you? Even many years after it has been cut, hair can tell surprising secrets. Because hair is made from bits of old cells, it has trace (微量) of chemicals (化学物质) that were in the body when the hair grew. When people are kept in the situation of dangerous chemicals, these traces remain in the hair, even long after they have disappeared from the body itself. Testing hair can help doctors know if there are dangerous chemicals in the food and water. Hair can tell another important secret — whose hair is it? This can be used to help solve crimes. Hair does so many things for us. It keeps us warm and cool, helps farmers, shows mysteries, and provides endless styling fun. One thing is for sure, it’s not just for wigs any more. 51. In which part of a magazine can we probably read this passage? A. Fashion. B. Science. C. History. D. Health. 52. What does the underlined part “shear the sheep” mean? A. Give enough food to the sheep. B. Wash the sheep many times. C. Find living place for the sheep. D. Cut the wool off the sheep. 53. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 4? A. Hair helps keep warm. B. Hair testing is important. C. Hair can tell secrets. D. Hair helps solve crimes. 54. How is the passage organized (组织)? (P: Paragraph) A. B. C. D. 第 8 页 共 10 页 第Ⅱ卷（主观题 共 36分） 五、词汇运用（本大题共 8分，每小题 1分） (A) 根据句意和汉语注释，在答题卷对应题号的横线上，写出单词的适当形式。 55. Tom is not __________ (耐心的) at all, so he gets angry easily. 56.
