In the past，the short breaks were not enough for students，especially those in tall buildings，to go outside and play.Sometimes，schools even restricted students from leaving classrooms during breaks for safety reasons.But now，things are different. Cities like Beijing，Tianjin，and Qingdao in Shandong province have already added the longer breaks to their schedules.In Beijing，the extra break time didn't change the students' overall day much.Primary schools still start and end at the same times，but middle schools now end five minutes later. Schools in Xinwu district of Wuxi，Jiangsu province，have gone a step further.They have 15﹣minute breaks and require students to have at least 100 minutes of physical exercise on campus each day.They also made sure classes don't start too early and students can do what they want during breaks. A primary school in Qingdao even introduced outdoor games like jump rope and hula hoop exercises during the breaks.They organize students by floor so everyone gets a chance to play outside.And it seems to be working﹣in May，10% more students in Qingdao got"excellent" or"good" fitness ratings（评级）. （1）What is the purpose of extending class breaks to 15 minutes in Chinese schools？ 　C　 A.To increase the overall school day.

Ivory，also known as"white gold"，has long been regarded as precious.Because of its unusual look，people often use it to make expensive things，such as jewellery，musical instruments and art.And the ivory material itself can stand the test of time.That's why many people are willing to pay high prices for ivory products. However，no matter how much real ivory is sold for，it's certainly not worth the harm to elephants.So some scientists are working hard on creating the same beauty of ivory with no killing. ThaddÂa Rath and her team at the University of Vienna have created the man﹣made ivory called"Digory".It is made from synthetic resin（合成树脂） and calcium phosphate particles（磷酸钙颗粒）.First，they use a 3 D printer to make the shape.Then they color﹣match and stain（着色） it.Finally，they polish（抛光） it to make it look like real natural ivory.Although the chemical structure of Digory is completely different from that of the natural ivory，it looks so real that it is hard to tell the difference by eye. Fritz Vollrath，a biologist from the UK，felt excited about the invention for the fact that Digory could save many elephants from risks.He said， "We hope that，by doing more research，Digory will soon be accepted and used worldwide.And I believe that technology like this will play an important role in wildlife protection." （1）Why does the writer list some numbers in Paragraph 1？ 　D　 A.To present the number of elephants in Africa. B.To introduce the ivory markets in Asia and Africa. C.To explain the reasons for the illegal trade of ivory. D.To show the dangerous situation of African elephants. （2）What does the underlined word"precious" in Paragraph 2 mean？ 　B　 A.Modern. B.Valuable. C.Beautiful. D.Traditional. （3）What do we know about Digory from Paragraph 4？ 　C　 a.Why Digory is invented. b.How Digory is created. c.What Digory is made from. d.Whether Digory looks real. A.abc B.acd C.bcd D.abd （4）Which of the following does Fritz Vollrath agree？ 　D　 A.Digory will save all the elephants from risks. B.It's hard for the world to accept man﹣made ivory. C.It will take long to make Digory used worldwide. D.Technology will support the protection of wildlife. （5）Which is the right structure of the text？ （①＝ Para.1 ②＝ Para.2 …） 　D　 A.①/②③④⑤ B.①/②③/④⑤ C.①②③④/⑤ D.①/②/③④⑤ 【分析】本文主要介绍了非洲象因象牙贸易而遭受的严重威胁，以及科学家为保护它们所做出的努力。尽管全球已采取多种措施保护非洲象，但由于非法狩猎和市场需求，其数量从1970年代末的130万头减少至如今的约450，000头。每年至少有20，000头非洲象因此丧生。象牙因其珍贵和耐用性被广泛用于制作昂贵物品，导致非法交易持续存在。为了减少对大象的伤害，科学家致力于开发人造象牙"Digory"，这种由合成树脂和磷酸钙颗粒制成的材料外观与真象牙难以区分，有望替代天然象牙，从而在野生动物保护中发挥重要作用。 【解答】（1）细节理解题。根据第一段At the end of the 1970s，over 1.3 million elephants walked around Africa.But today，their numbers have fallen to around 450，000.（在20世纪70年代末，超过130万头大象在非洲行走。）以及This has resulted in the deaths of at least 20，000 African elephants each year.（这导致每年至少20，000头非洲象死亡。）可知作者在第一段中列出了一些数字来展示非洲象的危险处境。故选D。 （2）词义猜测题。根据第二段Ivory，also known as"white gold"，has long been regarded as precious.Because of its unusual look，people often use it to make expensive things，such as jewellery，musical instruments and art.（象牙也被称为"白金"，长期以来一直被认为是......。因为它不同寻常的外观，人们经常用它来制作昂贵的东西，如珠宝、乐器和艺术品。）联系前后句可猜测出下划线单词 precious的意思应为：珍贵的，故选B。 （3）细节理解题。根据第四段It is made from synthetic resin（合成树脂） and calcium phosphate particles（磷酸钙颗粒）.First，they use a 3 D printer to make the shape.Then they color﹣match and stain（着色） it.Finally，they polish（抛光） it to make it look like real natural ivory.Although the chemical structure of Digory is completely different from that of the natural ivory，it looks so real that it is hard to tell the difference by eye.（它是由合成树脂和磷酸钙颗粒制成的。首先，他们使用3 D打印机来制作形状。然后，他们对其进行配色和染色。最后，他们抛光使其看起来像真正的天然象牙。尽管迪格雷的化学结构与天然象牙完全不同，但它看起来如此真实，以至于很难用肉眼分辨出来。）可知在第四段中我们了解到Digory是如何产生的、Digory是由什么构成的以及Digory看起来是否真实。C选项符合题意，故选C。 （4）细节理解题。根据最后一段And I believe that technology like this will play an important role in wildlife protection.（我相信像这样的技术将在野生动物保护中发挥重要作用。）可知Fritz Vollrath同意"科技将支持野生动物的保护"，故选D。 （5）篇章结构题。根据第一段作者用数字直观地展示了非洲象因非法狩猎象牙而面临的严峻情况；第二段主要讲述了很多人愿意花高价购买象牙制品的原因；第三、四、五自然段分别介绍了为了拯救大象，三位科学家所做出的努力。故选D。 【点评】通读全文，理解文章大意，阅读题目后返回原文阅读并找出与题目相对应的内容，仔细核对，选择符合原文原意的答案，完成后再次阅读并检查。 6．（10分） A quasar（类星体） is an extremely bright object with a super﹣massive（超大质量的） black hole.About a million quasars have been known to humans.Quasar J0529﹣4351 is one of them，with 12 billion light years from the earth. We have been able to see Quasar J0529﹣4351 since 1980.But it was so bright that people mistook it for a foreground star（前景恒星）.In 2023，scientists finally identified（确认） it as a quasar as well as the brightest object in the universe，500 trillion（万亿） times brighter than the sun.In 2024，a study on the quasar came out in Nature Astronomy.It was done by Australian scientist Christian Wolf and his team. According to the recent study，Quasar J0529﹣4351 has a huge"stomach".Like other quasars，it keeps taking in gas and dust in the space.In fact，it has the largest accretion disk（吸积盘） in the universe.It"eats" about as much as the sun's mass（质量） every day，which makes it grow very fast.And we shouldn't be surprised at how bright it is，because the brightness has much to do with how much it"eats". However，Quasar J0529﹣4351 is not the largest object.TON 618，found in 1957，is one of the largest black holes.It can hold 66 billion stars the size of the sun inside，while Quasar J0529﹣4351 is about 19 billion times larger than the sun. Scientist have already learned that a black hole is formed when a star collapses（坍塌） on itself.And it grows by taking in other objects，including other black holes.But they still don't know how super﹣massive black holes come into being.Scientists hope that studying quasars like this one will help them understand more about super﹣massive black holes.They also believe that there are probably more unusual quasars out there，waiting to be discovered. （1）How long have we been able to see Quasar J0529﹣4351？ 　A　 A.More than 40 years. B.In 1980. C.For just 40 years. D.Less than 40 years. （2）What does the underlined word"It" in Paragraph 2 refer to？ 　C　 A.Quasar J0529﹣4351. B.The foreground star. C.The study. D.Nature Astronomy. （3）Which of the following is TRUE about Quasar J0529﹣4351？ 　B　 A.It is 12 billion light years from the sun. B.It is 500 trillion times brighter than the sun.

Long ago，as a developing agricultural country，China badly relied on abundant rainfall.The dragon was believed to rule the rivers and seas and dominate the clouds and rains.During the feudal period，the dragon served as the symbol of the emperors and imperial authority.Later we Chinese people use the term 'Descendants of the Dragon' as a sign of ethnic identity，hoping that we are brave and powerful enough like dragons to control our own fate.So we often cut our hair on the second day of February，which means we are descendants of the dragon.Many parents also hope that their children are as great as dragons.【高分句型一】（习俗活动） Once when my family and I were traveling abroad，we never litter or damage public property.Many people give us approving looks.When they knew that we were Chinese，they praised us even more.As a descendant of the dragon，I have always maintained a positive and uplifting spirit.（经历） So let's continue to promote and inherit the spirit of the dragon.【高分句型二】（呼吁） 【点评】能够根据提示进行书面表达，能够围绕主题准确使用一定的语法、词汇、短语和句型等，清楚连贯地表达自己的思想，进而完成写作任务。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 广东省佛山市南海区桂城街道2024-2025学年上学期学生作业评估八年级英语试卷 一、 语法选择 请通读下面短文，掌握其大意，根据语法和上下文连贯的要求，从每小题所给的三个选项中选出一个最佳选项，并将答题卡上将对应选项涂黑。 1．（10分） Chengdu is a city with a population of more than 21 million and an area of more than 14，300 square kilometers.It is home （1）　 　 both captive（圈养的） and wild pandas.The Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding has over 230 pandas.Visitors can observe them from behind fences （2）　 　 glass windows.

In the past，the short breaks were not enough for students，especially those in tall buildings，to go outside and play.Sometimes，schools even restricted students from leaving classrooms during breaks for safety reasons.But now，things are different. Cities like Beijing，Tianjin，and Qingdao in Shandong province have already added the longer breaks to their schedules.In Beijing，the extra break time didn't change the students' overall day much.Primary schools still start and end at the same times，but middle schools now end five minutes later. Schools in Xinwu district of Wuxi，Jiangsu province，have gone a step further.They have 15﹣minute breaks and require students to have at least 100 minutes of physical exercise on campus each day.They also made sure classes don't start too early and students can do what they want during breaks. A primary school in Qingdao even introduced outdoor games like jump rope and hula hoop exercises during the breaks.They organize students by floor so everyone gets a chance to play outside.And it seems to be working﹣in May，10% more students in Qingdao got"excellent" or"good" fitness ratings（评级）. （1）What is the purpose of extending class breaks to 15 minutes in Chinese schools？ 　 　 A.To increase the overall school day. B.To encourage more indoor activities. C.To promote outdoor time for students and teachers. D.To make sure classes not start too early. （2）What does the underlined word"restricted" in the second paragraph mean？ 　 　 A.Allowed. B.Limited. C.Encouraged. D.Ordered. （3）The change in class break time in Beijing middle schools shows that 　 　. A.the school timetable has become more changeable B.schools paid more attention to students' lifestyle C.teachers will have more rest time D.teachers will slow down the teaching pace （4）Which of the following statements is true about the changes in class breaks？ 　 　 A.All schools in China now have 15﹣minute breaks. B.Middle schools in Beijing end 10 minutes later because of the longer breaks. C.Xinwu district require students to have at least 120 minutes of physical exercise daily. D.A primary school in Qingdao introduced outdoor games during the breaks. （5）What would be the best title for this passage？ 　 　 A.The Benefits of Outdoor Exercise B.Changes in School Schedules Across China C.Longer Breaks for Better Health D.The Importance of Physical Education 5．（10分） Even though the world has made great efforts to protect African elephants，many of them are still being killed for their ivory（象牙）.At the end of the 1970s，over 1.3 million elephants walked around Africa.But today，their numbers have fallen to around 450，000.This is mainly caused by illegal（非法的） hunting for ivory.Need for ivory in markets，especially in Asia and Africa，continues to push the illegal trade（贸易）.This has resulted in the deaths of at least 20，000 African elephants each year. Ivory，also known as"white gold"，has long been regarded as precious.Because of its unusual look，people often use it to make expensive things，such as jewellery，musical instruments and art.And the ivory material itself can stand the test of time.That's why many people are willing to pay high prices for ivory products. However，no matter how much real ivory is sold for，it's certainly not worth the harm to elephants.So some scientists are working hard on creating the same beauty of ivory with no killing. ThaddÂa Rath and her team at the University of Vienna have created the man﹣made ivory called"Digory".It is made from synthetic resin（合成树脂） and calcium phosphate particles（磷酸钙颗粒）.First，they use a 3 D printer to make the shape.Then they color﹣match and stain（着色） it.Finally，they polish（抛光） it to make it look like real natural ivory.Although the chemical structure of Digory is completely different from that of the natural ivory，it looks so real that it is hard to tell the difference by eye. Fritz Vollrath，a biologist from the UK，felt excited about the invention for the fact that Digory could save many elephants from risks.He said， "We hope that，by doing more research，Digory will soon be accepted and used worldwide.And I believe that technology like this will play an important role in wildlife protection." （1）Why does the writer list some numbers in Paragraph 1？ 　 　 A.To present the number of elephants in Africa. B.To introduce the ivory markets in Asia and Africa. C.To explain the reasons for the illegal trade of ivory. D.To show the dangerous situation of African elephants. （2）What does the underlined word"precious" in Paragraph 2 mean？ 　 　 A.Modern. B.Valuable. C.Beautiful. D.Traditional. （3）What do we know about Digory from Paragraph 4？ 　 　 a.Why Digory is invented. b.How Digory is created. c.What Digory is made from. d.Whether Digory looks real. A.abc B.acd C.bcd D.abd （4）Which of the following does Fritz Vollrath agree？ 　 　 A.Digory will save all the elephants from risks. B.It's hard for the world to accept man﹣made ivory. C.It will take long to make Digory used worldwide. D.Technology will support the protection of wildlife. （5）Which is the right structure of the text？ （①＝ Para.1 ②＝ Para.2 …） 　 　 A.①/②③④⑤ B.①/②③/④⑤ C.①②③④/⑤ D.①/②/③④⑤ 6．（10分） A quasar（类星体） is an extremely bright object with a super﹣massive（超大质量的） black hole.About a million quasars have been known to humans.Quasar J0529﹣4351 is one of them，with 12 billion light years from the earth. We have been able to see Quasar J0529﹣4351 since 1980.But it was so bright that people mistook it for a foreground star（前景恒星）.In 2023，scientists finally identified（确认） it as a quasar as well as the brightest object in the universe，500 trillion（万亿） times brighter than the sun.In 2024，a study on the quasar came out in Nature Astronomy.It was done by Australian scientist Christian Wolf and his team. According to the recent study，Quasar J0529﹣4351 has a huge"stomach".Like other quasars，it keeps taking in gas and dust in the space.In fact，it has the largest accretion disk（吸积盘） in the universe.It"eats" about as much as the sun's mass（质量） every day，which makes it grow very fast.And we shouldn't be surprised at how bright it is，because the brightness has much to do with how much it"eats". However，Quasar J0529﹣4351 is not the largest object.TON 618，found in 1957，is one of the largest black holes.It can hold 66 billion stars the size of the sun inside，while Quasar J0529﹣4351 is about 19 billion times larger than the sun. Scientist have already learned that a black hole is formed when a star collapses（坍塌） on itself.And it grows by taking in other objects，including other black holes.But they still don't know how super﹣massive black holes come into being.Scientists hope that studying quasars like this one will help them understand more about super﹣massive black holes.They also believe that there are probably more unusual quasars out there，waiting to be discovered. （1）How long have we been able to see Quasar J0529﹣4351？ 　 　 A.More than 40 years. B.In 1980. C.For just 40 years. D.Less than 40 years. （2）What does the underlined word"It" in Paragraph 2 refer to？ 　 　 A.Quasar J0529﹣4351. B.The foreground star. C.The study. D.Nature Astronomy. （3）Which of the following is TRUE about Quasar J0529﹣4351？ 　 　 A.It is 12 billion light years from the sun. B.It is 500 trillion times brighter than the sun. C.It can hold 66 billion stars the size of the sun. D.It is about 19 billion times larger than TON 618. （4）What does the last paragraph mainly tell us？ 　 　 A.When a star collapses.
