DIY Club If you are a DIY-lover, come and join Us! Here you can make, repair and decorate things yourselves. The club is open from 2:00 p. m. to 5:30 p. m. every Monday.

Which club can Amy join if she wants to have a picnic at weekends? A. The Volunteer Club. B. The Basketball Club. C. The Hiking Club. D. The DIY Club. 48. Where can you probably find the poster? A. In a restaurant. B. In a hotel. C. In a supermarket. D. In a school. B What time does your school start? Do you wish you can get up later every morning? You are not alone if your answer is “Yes”. In the US, many middle school students have the same wish. In America, many schools start the class before 7: 30 a. m. But that may change soon. A new law has been passed in California. According to the law, middle schools should not start the class before 8: 00 a. m. The government hopes school children will have a longer time in bed. Many scientific studies show that teenagers are more active in the afternoon and in the evening Simply telling them to go to bed earlier doesn’t work well. Most of them don’t get enough sleep because of bad sleeping habits and early school starting time. They need more sleep in the morning. Scientists suggest middle schools should start the class at 8: 00 a. m. or later. Students can get well ready to learn and they won’t fall asleep in class. They will pay more attention to classes. The change can help improve students’ grades. While scientists are happy with the new law, many parents disagree with it. They won’t be able to send their children to school before they go to work. They also fear that later school starting time will lead to later ending time. As a result, their children will have less time to take part in after-school activities. Actually, in china, the “Double Reduction” policy has been put into use for over 2 years. Many students have more free time than before. But how can we students make our time more meaningful? We need your answers. 49. The middle schools shouldn’t start the class ________ according to the new law in California. A. before 7: 30 a. m. B. after 7: 30 a. m. C. before 8: 00 a. m. D. after 8: 00 a. m. 50. Why don’t most of the teenagers get enough sleep? A. Because they sleep too late and school starts early. B. Because they have too much homework. C. Because they stay up to play computer games. D. Because their parents need them to do housework. 51. What can we know from the passage? A. The government of New York has passed a new law. B. All the parents disagree with the law. C. Later school starting time may lead to fewer after-school activities. D. Teenagers are more active in the morning. 52. What can we infer (推断) from the passage? A. Students in China have more time to study. B. China has already passed a similar law. C. Students in California will have less sleeping time. D. Chinese experts aren’t worried about students’ sleeping time. C Poems from Tang and Song dynasties (朝代), operas from Yuan dynasty, and novels from Ming and Qing dynasties are very famous in China’s history. Song of Autumn, one of the poems by Liu Yuxi (772-842), a famous poet and writer in the mid Tang dynasty is always praised by people. Most ancient (古代的) poets liked to describe autumn as a sad time, but in this poem the season appears differently. In Liu’s eyes, autumn, full of life and hope, is even better than spring morning. He describes the bright scene of a crane riding the clouds and flying into the blue sky. With his poems paying special attention to expressing personal feelings, as well as the daily life of common people, Liu wrote poems with beautiful music-like words. You may feel it in this poem. Here is another example. In Liu’s essay An Eulogium on a Humble Cell (《陋室铭》) , with less than 100 words, he shows a lively picture of his humble cell. However, it also shows how he was pleased with the poor and simple life. People may find it strange that one can feel happy living in such a humble cell. Learning from his famous sentence “be fragrant because of my virtues (斯是陋室，惟吾德馨) ”, I think to be a respectable man is more important than to live in big houses, to wear beautiful clothes, to enjoy delicious food, and even to gain knowledge. 53. How was autumn in Liu’s eyes at that time? A. He thought it was a sad time. B. He thought that autumn was rather cloudy. C. He thought spring was better. D. He thought autumn was a hopeful season. 54. Which of the following is the feature of Liu Yuxi’s works according to the passage? A Picturing blue sky and a crane. B. Describing daily life of young people. C. Expressing personal feelings. D. Writing songs according to music. 55. How did Liu feel about living in a humble cell in the writer’s opinion? A. Happy. B. Strange. C. Sad. D. Lonely. 56. Influenced by Liu Yuxi, which of the following does the writer think is the most important? A. To live in a big house. B. To be a respectable man. C. To wear beautiful clothes. D. To gain more knowledge. D “Where’s Papa going with the ax (斧头) ?” said Fern to her mother as they were setting the table for breakfast. “Out to the pig house, ” replied Mrs Arable. “Some pigs were born last night. ” “I don’t see why he needs an ax, ” said Fern, who was only eight. “Well, ” said her mother, “one of the pigs is too small and weak, and it will never make it. So your father has decided to do away with it. ” “Do away with it? ” shouted Fern, “Just because it’s smaller than the others? ” “Don’t shout, Fern! ” Mrs Arable said. “Your father is right. The pig would probably die anyway. ” Fern ran outdoors. The grass was wet and Fern’s sneakers were soaking (湿透的) by the time she caught up with her father. “Please don’t kill it! ” she cried. “It’s unfair. ” Mr Arable stopped walking. “Fern, ” he said gently, “you will have to learn to control yourself. ” “Control myself? ” shouted Fern. “This is a matter of life and death, and you talk about controlling myself. ” Tears ran down her cheeks and she held the ax and tried to pull it out of her father’s hand. “Fern. ” said Mr Arable, “I know more about raising pigs than you do. A weakling (体弱者) makes trouble. Now run along! ” “But it’s unfair, ” cried Fern. “The pig couldn’t help being born small, could it? If I had been very small at birth, would you have killed me? ” Mr Arable smiled. “Certainly not, ” he said, looking down at his daughter with love. “But this is different. A little girl is one thing, a weak little pig is another. ” “I see no difference, ” said Fern, still holding the ax. “This is the most terrible case of unfairness I have ever heard of. ” A strange look came over John Arable’s face. He seemed almost ready to cry himself. (Adapted from Charlotte’s Web) 57. What does the underlined phrase “do away with” in Paragraph 4 mean? A. cook B. raise C. kill D. protect 58. Which of the following is true according to the passage? A. Only one pig was born last night. B. It was easy to raise a small and weak pig. C. Mr Arable hated to raise pigs. D. Fern tried to save the small pig. 59. Do you think what Fern is like according to the article? A. She is kind-hearted and caring. B. She is wise but careless. C. She is simple but impolite. D. She is humorous and patient. 60. What can we infer about John Arable in the end? A. He would kill the pig at last. B. He would keep the pig. C. He would let the pig to die in a natural death. D. He would give the pig to others. 第二节 信息还原（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分） 阅读短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Do you want to feel happy and know how great you are? ____61____ Encourage yourself.

Why? Because of all the umbrellas are in my way. Before I took a trip to China, I never saw people carrying umbrellas on sunny days. But in China, women carry umbrellas when it’s not raining. Why? I wondered. I found that there are many reasons for this. Firstly, it protects people from the sun’s rays. Many Chinese cities get hot in summer. People sometimes carry umbrellas to stay cool. But wait a second. If umbrellas can help us stay cool, why don’t I ever see men carrying them? That brings us to the second reasons—stopping the sun helps women’s skin stay pale (白皙的). In China, people think pale skin is more beautiful than brown skin. Cosmetic (化妆品) companies even sell special creams and powder (美容粉) to make women’s skin look whiter. Women in the USA, on the other hand, really like to be brown. They think it’s more beautiful. Some people will lie outdoors in the sun for hours to get brown. But doing this too much can be dangerous, as the sun’s rays are bad for their skin. China isn’t the only place where women carry umbrellas during summer. Women in Greece are also known to carry umbrellas to protect themselves from the sun. So there you have it—umbrellas aren’t just for rainy days, although I don’t think I’m going to start carrying one anytime soon. 84. In which country do women carry umbrellas to protect themselves from the sun according to the article? ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 85. Why do women in China carry umbrellas when it is not raining? ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 86. Will you carry umbrellas when it’s not raining? Why or why not? ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 八、书面表达（满分15分） 87. 友谊是我们生活的重要部分。你校正在组织以 “My best friend” 为题的征文活动。请根据以下要点介绍你的好朋友 Kate。请根据以下要点用英文介绍…… 基本情况 八年级 高且苗条 总是面带微笑 品质及事迹 乐于助人（举一例说明） 幽默（举一例说明） 爱好及收获 喜欢户外活动，一年两次和家人外出旅游 喜欢DIY，为母亲做过生日卡片 未来计划和梦想 梦想做一名老师，帮助更多的学生实现梦想。 要求：1）表达清楚，语法正确，上下文连贯； 2）必须包括表格中所有的相关信息，并适当发挥； 3）词数：80词左右（征文的开头已给出，不计入总词数）； 4）不得使用真实姓名、校名和地名等。 My best friend Friendship plays an important part in our lives.

Suzy says I’d better not use watermelons, because they have too much water. She advises me to add bananas if I like. She says I should use fruit of different colours and try to make my fruit salad look as good as it tastes. For example, if I mix red apples, green pears, purple grapes and orange oranges together, my fruit salad will look very colourful. Of course, I should prepare the fruit salad just before I am going to eat it. Some of the fruit will quickly turn brown when people leave it in the air for some time. 二、单项选择（每小题1分，满分10分） 21. —What is the ________ of your beautiful English handwriting? —I practise it every day.

Do you wish you can get up later every morning? You are not alone if your answer is “Yes”. In the US, many middle school students have the same wish. In America, many schools start the class before 7: 30 a. m. But that may change soon. A new law has been passed in California. According to the law, middle schools should not start the class before 8: 00 a. m. The government hopes school children will have a longer time in bed. Many scientific studies show that teenagers are more active in the afternoon and in the evening. Simply telling them to go to bed earlier doesn’t work well. Most of them don’t get enough sleep because of bad sleeping habits and early school starting time. They need more sleep in the morning. Scientists suggest middle schools should start the class at 8: 00 a. m. or later. Students can get well ready to learn and they won’t fall asleep in class. They will pay more attention to classes. The change can help improve students’ grades. While scientists are happy with the new law, many parents disagree with it. They won’t be able to send their children to school before they go to work. They also fear that later school starting time will lead to later ending time. As a result, their children will have less time to take part in after-school activities. Actually, in china, the “Double Reduction” policy has been put into use for over 2 years. Many students have more free time than before. But how can we students make our time more meaningful? We need your answers. 49. The middle schools shouldn’t start the class ________ according to the new law in California. A. before 7: 30 a. m. B. after 7: 30 a. m. C. before 8: 00 a. m. D. after 8: 00 a. m. 50. Why don’t most of the teenagers get enough sleep? A. Because they sleep too late and school starts early. B. Because they have too much homework. C. Because they stay up to play computer games. D. Because their parents need them to do housework. 51. What can we know from the passage? A. The government of New York has passed a new law. B. All the parents disagree with the law. C. Later school starting time may lead to fewer after-school activities. D. Teenagers are more active in the morning. 52. What can we infer (推断) from the passage? A. Students in China have more time to study. B. China has already passed a similar law. C. Students in California will have less sleeping time. D. Chinese experts aren’t worried about students’ sleeping time. 【答案】49. C 50. A 51. C 52. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了美国加利福尼亚州通过了一项法规，该法规规定中学生不得早于8点开始上课，给学生更多的睡眠时间。对此，科学家和家长给出了他们的看法。 【49题详解】 细节理解题。根据“A new law has been passed in California. According to the law, middle schools should not start the class before 8: 00 a. m.”可知，加利福尼亚州通过了一项新法律，根据法律规定，中学不应该在早上8点之前开始上课。故选C。 【50题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Most of them don’t get enough sleep because of bad sleeping habits and early school starting time.”可知，他们中的大多数人由于不良的睡眠习惯和过早的上学时间而没有得到足够的睡眠。故选A。 【51题详解】 细节理解题。根据“They also fear that later school starting time will lead to later ending time.

Many students have more free time than before.”可知，中国也推出了“双减”政策，与加利福尼亚州的法律相似，给学生更多的时间。故选B。 C Poems from Tang and Song dynasties (朝代), operas from Yuan dynasty, and novels from Ming and Qing dynasties are very famous in China’s history. Song of Autumn, one of the poems by Liu Yuxi (772-842), a famous poet and writer in the mid Tang dynasty is always praised by people.

With his poems paying special attention to expressing personal feelings, as well as the daily life of common people, Liu wrote poems with beautiful music-like words. You may feel it in this poem. Here is another example. In Liu’s essay An Eulogium on a Humble Cell (《陋室铭》) , with less than 100 words, he shows a lively picture of his humble cell. However, it also shows how he was pleased with the poor and simple life. People may find it strange that one can feel happy living in such a humble cell. Learning from his famous sentence “be fragrant because of my virtues (斯是陋室，惟吾德馨) ”, I think to be a respectable man is more important than to live in big houses, to wear beautiful clothes, to enjoy delicious food, and even to gain knowledge. 53.

Strange. C. Sad. D. Lonely. 56. Influenced by Liu Yuxi, which of the following does the writer think is the most important? A. To live in a big house. B. To be a respectable man. C. To wear beautiful clothes. D. To gain more knowledge. 【答案】53. D 54. C 55. A 56.

Why? Because of all the umbrellas are in my way. Before I took a trip to China, I never saw people carrying umbrellas on sunny days. But in China, women carry umbrellas when it’s not raining. Why? I wondered. I found that there are many reasons for this. Firstly, it protects people from the sun’s rays. Many Chinese cities get hot in summer. People sometimes carry umbrellas to stay cool. But wait a second. If umbrellas can help us stay cool, why don’t I ever see men carrying them? That brings us to the second reasons—stopping the sun helps women’s skin stay pale (白皙的). In China, people think pale skin is more beautiful than brown skin. Cosmetic (化妆品) companies even sell special creams and powder (美容粉) to make women’s skin look whiter. Women in the USA, on the other hand, really like to be brown. They think it’s more beautiful. Some people will lie outdoors in the sun for hours to get brown. But doing this too much can be dangerous, as the sun’s rays are bad for their skin. China isn’t the only place where women carry umbrellas during summer. Women in Greece are also known to carry umbrellas to protect themselves from the sun. So there you have it—umbrellas aren’t just for rainy days, although I don’t think I’m going to start carrying one anytime soon. 84. In which country do women carry umbrellas to protect themselves from the sun according to the article? ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 85. Why do women in China carry umbrellas when it is not raining? ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 86. Will you carry umbrellas when it’s not raining? Why or why not? ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】84. China and Greece. 85.

Women in Greece are also known to carry umbrellas to protect themselves from the sun.”可知，中国和希腊女性带伞来遮挡阳光。故填China and Greece. 【85题详解】 根据“I found that there are many reasons for this. Firstly, it protects people from the sun’s rays.”以及“That brings us to the second reasons—stopping the sun helps women’s skin stay pale (白皙的).”可知，中国女人在不下雨的时候要打伞的原因有保护女性免受阳光的伤害，以及不晒太阳可以帮助女性的皮肤保持白皙。故填It protects women from the sun’s rays and stopping the sun can help women’s skin stay pale. 【86题详解】 开放性问题，言之有理即可。参考答案为Yes, I will.
