"Is it all over？" she asked，looking down at my face. "Have you cried your sadness away？" "I am afraid I never shall do that. " "Why？" "Because I have been wrongly accused（指责），and you and everybody else，will think me a bad girl. " "We shall think you what you prove yourself to be，my child.Continue to act as a good girl，and you will satisfy us. " "Shall I，Miss Temple？" "You will.

In a recent study，Professor Betsy Sparrow made some experiments（实验）.She and her research team wanted to know how the Internet is changing memory. In the first experiment，they asked two groups of people to put 40 unimportant facts into a computer.The first group of people understood that the computer would store the information.The second group understood that the computer would not store it.Later，the second group remembered the information better.People in the first group knew they could find the information again，so they did not try to remember it. In the second experiment，the researchers gave people facts to remember，and told them where to find the information on the Internet.The information was in an exact in an exact computer folder（文件夹）.Surprisingly，people later remember where the folder is better than the facts.When people use the Internet，they do not remember the information.However，they remember how to find it.This is called "transitive memory （交互记忆）". According to Sparrow，we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet.Instead，computer users are developing stronger transitive memories；that is，people are learning how to organize a lot of information so that they are able to get it at a later date.This doesn't mean we are becoming either more or less clever，but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing. （32）Why does the writer begin the text with two questions？ 　 　 A．To explain some thoughts. B．To introduce the main topic. C．To show an opinion. D．To draw the readers' attention. （33）What can we learn form the first experiment？ 　 　 A．Sparrow put the information into the computer. B．Both groups remember the information well. C．Group 1 remembered the information faster. D．Group 2 remembered the information better. （34）What do we know about transitive memory from the second experiment？ 　 　 A．People organize the information like a computer. B．People remember how to find the information. C．People remember how to make a folder. D．People keep the information in mind. （35）What's Professor Betsy Sparrow's conclusion（结论）？ 　 　 A．People become more and more clever. B．The way people use memory is changing. C．The way people make experiments is changing. D．People's memories become poorer than before. 【答案】BDBB 【分析】本文章主要讲述了互联网的发展使得人们越来越依赖于互联网来存储信息，感觉人们已经很少利用大脑记忆东西。因此本文就网络是否会改变我们的记忆方式以及如何改变我们的记忆方式进行了分析。 【解答】 （32）B 细节推理题。根据文章第一段内容，As Internet users become more dependent on the Internet to store information，are people remembering less？If you know your computer will save information，why store it in your own personal memory，your brain？Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how.随着互联网用户越来越依赖于互联网来存储信息，人们是否记得的更少？如果你知道你的计算机会保存信息，为什么要将它存储在你自己的个人记忆中，你的大脑中？专家们想知道，互联网是否正在改变我们的记忆以及如何改变.本文通过两个问题引出了文章的主题，即if the Internet is changing what we remember and how，网络是否会改变我们的记忆方式以及如何改变我们的记忆方式.结合选项，故选B. （33）D 细节理解题。根据Later，the second group remembered the information better，可知，第二组记忆信息更好，故选D. （34）B 细节推理题。根据文章第二段最后两句When people use the Internet，they do not remember the information.Rather，they remember how to find it.This is called"transitive memory（交互记忆）."可知，交互记忆是指人们能够记住如何找到信息而不是记住信息本身，故选B. （35）B 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段内容，According to Sparrow，we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet.Instead，computer users are developing stronger transitive memories；that is，people are learning how to organize a lot of information so that they are able to get it at a later date.This doesn't mean we are becoming either more or less clever，but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.我们并不是因为互联网而成为记忆力差的人，相反，电脑用户正在开发更强的交易记忆，也就是说，人们正在学习如何组织大量的信息，以便日后能够找到它。这并不意味着我们变得越来越智能，或者越来越不智能。但毫无疑问，我们使用记忆的方式正在改变，结合选项，故选B.

Hotels There are lots of good hotels in New York．The best is the Plaza on 5th Avenue but you don't have to pay a lot to stay in the city，there are lots of smaller hotels and the YMCA near Central Park is great for young people． Eating out There are many kinds of food in New York and you shouldn't eat at McDonald's every day.There are good restaurants in little Italy and Chinatown，for example． Shopping Shopping in New York is fun.There are big shops on 5th Avenue.They are open seven days a week.But be careful when you look at the prices，you have to pay a special 8‰tax（税）on everything you buy in New York． Places to see Finally．there are a lot of places to see in New York—Times Square，the Statue of Liberty.And you shouldn't go home without climbing the Statue of Liberty to enjoy the scenery of the city. （36）How many kinds of public transport are mentioned（提到）in the second paragraph？ 　 　 A．Two． B．Three． C．Four． D．Five． （37）"The Plaza" here is the name of 　 　． A．a restaurant B．a hotel C．an airport D．a shop （38）How much do you have to pay if you buy a book of ＄10 in New York？ 　 　 A．＄10.8． B．＄10.08． C．＄18． D．＄10． （39）When you visit New York，you should 　 　． A．eat at McDonald's every day B．take a taxi whenever you go out C．stay at the best hotel D．climb the Statue of Liberty （40）From the passage．we can learn that 　 　． A．people can visit many places of interest in New York on foot B．New York is not a good place for shopping C．people must travel by public transport in New York D．people have to eat only one kind of food in New York 【答案】BBBBA 【分析】文章介绍了纽约的情况，在纽约有很好的公共汽车和地铁服务。纽约的出租车是城市体验的一部分。在纽约有很多好旅馆。你在纽约买的东西都要交8%的特别税。在纽约有很多地方你可以步行去，比如帝国大厦、第五大道和中央公园。 【解答】 （36）细节理解题。根据文中第二段Public Transport .In New York there's a good bus and subway service .The New York taxis are a part of the city experience ，so you should take at least one taxi during your visit ！（公共交通。在纽约有很好的公共汽车和地铁服务。纽约的出租车是城市体验的一部分。所以你应该至少乘坐一辆出租车在您的访问！）所以文章中提到了三种公共交通工具。故选B。 （37）词义猜测题。根据文中第三段There are lots of good hotels in New York .The best is The Plaza on 5th Avenue but you don't have to pay a lot to stay in the city .（在纽约有很多好旅馆。最好的是第五大道上的广场，但你不必花很多钱就可以住在市里。）所以" The Plaza "这里是旅馆的名字。故选B。 （38）推理判断题。根据文中第五段But be careful when you look at the prices .You have to pay a special 8‰ tax on everything you buy in New York．（但你看价格时要小心。你在纽约买的东西都要交8‰的特别税。）所以如果你在纽约买一本10美元的书，你要付10.08美元。故选B。 （39）推理判断题。根据第二段The New York taxis are a part of the city experience ，so you should take at least one taxi during your visit ！（纽约的出租车是城市体验的一部分，所以你应该至少乘坐一辆出租车在您的访问！）可知当你访问纽约时，你应该乘出租车去一个地方。故选B。 （40）推理判断题。根据第二段But you don't have to use public transport ﹣ there are lots of places you can go to on foot ，like The Empire State Building ，5th Avenue and Central Park .The New York taxis are a part of the city experience ，so you should take at least one taxi during your visit ！（但是你不必乘坐公共交通工具，有很多地方你可以步行去，比如帝国大厦、第五大道和中央公园。）所以从这篇文章中，我们可以知道人们可以步行游览纽约的许多名胜。故选A。 (B)阅读短文，从短文后A至F六个选项中选出五个可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Time flies when we play with our smartphone. （41）　 　 Why are we so addicted to（入迷） smartphones but easily bored by studying？ It all results from something small and hard to see：dopamine（多巴胺）. （42）　 　 Our brains produce it when we eat yummy food，after we exercise or when we get a prize. When we play with smartphones，we don't know what well see next，or who will send us a message.This uncertainty（不确定性） makes the dopamine system（系统） active. （43）　 　And to get more dopamine，we continue checking our phones.Studying doesn't provide such uncertainty.Without this excitement，we get bored much more easily. （44）　 　 According to scientists，apps can become less interesting if we turn off notifications（通知） or change the screen colors to black and white.We can also set time limits（限制） on apps to avoid using them too much. "As for studying，you could check our progress daily or weekly and reward yourself for it，"said Daniel Wong，writer of The Happy Student."You could also search for interesting topics connected with your textbooks. （45）　 　 This will make knowledge much more interesting to learn." A.Can we do something to change that？ B.Dopamine is also bad for us sometimes. C.When our expectations are met，dopamine is produced. D.But when we work and study，one hour feels like a year. E.Use what you've learned to make a difference in the real world. F.Dopamine is a"pleasure chemical"that makes people feel good. 【答案】DFCAE 【分析】短文主要讲述了智能手机成瘾的原因，并解释了多巴胺在其中的作用。文章指出，当我们使用智能手机时，由于不确定性的存在，大脑会释放多巴胺，使我们感到愉悦和兴奋，而学习则缺乏这种不确定性，因此容易让人感到无聊。最后，文章提供了一些方法来减少对手机的依赖，并建议通过奖励和寻找有趣话题来提高学习兴趣。 【解答】 （41）细节推理题。根据上文Time flies when we play with our smartphone. （当我们玩智能手机时，时间过得很快。）可知此句提到了玩手机觉得时间过得很快，故''但是当我们工作和学习时，一个小时感觉像一年''符合语境，故选D。 （42）细节推理题。根据上文It all results from something small and hard to see：dopamine（多巴胺）. （这一切都源于一种微小而难以发现的东西：多巴胺。）可知此处应介绍"多巴胺"，故"多巴胺是一种让人感觉良好的'愉悦化学物质'"符合，故选：F。 （43）细节推理题。根据上文This uncertainty（不确定性） makes the dopamine system（系统） active. （这种不确定性使得多巴胺系统活跃起来。）可知此句提到了多巴胺，故''当我们的期望得到满足时，多巴胺就会产生"符合语境，故选C。 （44）细节推理题。根据下文According to scientists，apps can become less interesting if we turn off notifications（通知） or change the screen colors to black and white.（据科学家称，如果我们关闭通知或将屏幕颜色改为黑白，应用程序会变得不那么有趣。）可知此句提到了应用程序，故"我们能做些什么来改变这种情况吗？"符合语境，故选A。 （45）细节推理题。根据上文You could also search for interesting topics connected with your textbooks. （你也可以搜索与课本相关的有趣话题。）可知此句提到了与课本内知识有关的内容，故"用你所学到的东西去改变现实世界"符合语境，故选E。 第II卷 非选择题（满分45分） 四、填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 选词填空（共1小题） 从方框中选择合适的单词或短语，并用其适当形式填空，有一个是多余的。 从方框中选择合适的单词或短语填空，有一个是多余的。 world﹣famous several in the centre of so much for bottom （46）The Hong Kong﹣Zhuhai﹣Macao Bridge is a 　 　bridge. （47）The old woman fell to the 　 　of the stairs and she was badly hurt. （48）It starts raining. 　 　our picnic this afternoon. （49）It's time for class，but there are only 　 　students in the classroom. （50）Tian'anmen Square is 　 　Beijing.A lot of tourists come here every day. 【答案】（46）world﹣famous（47）bottom（48）So much for （49）several（50）in the centre of 【分析】 （46）港珠澳大桥是一座世界闻名的大桥。 （47）老妇人摔到楼梯下，受了重伤。 （48）开始下雨了，这下午的野餐泡汤了。 （49）上课时间到了，但教室里只有几个学生。 （50）天安门广场位于北京中心，每天都有很多游客来这里。 【解答】 （46）考查形容词。句意：港珠澳大桥是一座世界闻名的大桥。根据bridge（大桥）和备选词，可知此处指"时间闻名的"，形容词作定语，修饰名词。故填world﹣famous。 （47）考查名词。句意：老妇人摔到楼梯下，受了重伤。根据the ...of the stairs（楼梯）和备选词，可知此处指楼梯下。bottom底部，下面，故填bottom。 （48）考查形容词短语。句意：开始下雨了，这下午的野餐泡汤了。根据It starts raining. （开始下雨了。）可知无法进行野餐了。So much for到此为止，符合题意，句首首字母大写。故填So much for。 （49）考查形容词。句意：上课时间到了，但教室里只有几个学生。根据but there are only...students（但只有......学生）和备选词，可知学生很少。several若干，形容词作定语，修饰名词。故填several。 （50）考查介词短语。句意：天安门广场位于北京中心，每天都有很多游客来这里。根据常识和备选词，可知天安门广场位于北京中心。故填in the centre of。 语法填空（共1小题） 新素材 保护方言 Do you speak a dialect（方言） in daily lives？Can you understand some dialects besides your own dialect？Some local dialects are （51）　 　danger of disappearing as they are becoming less used in daily lives.To save （52）　 　 （they），the Chinese government started the National Language Resource Protection Project a few years ago.

In a tea garden in Hangzhou，a smart tea﹣picking robot invented by Zhejiang Sci﹣Tech University is working for the first time."We take thousands of pictures of new tea buds（芽） and input them into the robot for it to learn.The robot uses an AI model to recognise（识别） the buds it should pick，"said Professor Chen Jianneng，member of the research team.This helps the robot find the right tea buds about 90 percent of the time. The robot's arm pulls and then sucks（吸） up the tea buds.These buds are quickly moved into a special box.Once the robot has collected all the buds from the area it's working at，it moves the buds from the box to a main box that holds everything it collects. The robot was made because there are not enough people to pick tea.In Zhejiang，about 400，000 pickers are needed now.

Alnwick Castle is a real castle in England. It is about 250 miles northeast to Oxford，about twenty miles south to Scotland and forty miles north to Newcastle. During our wonderful and special trip，we knew that the castle was first built for military （军事的） use in 1096.Since 1309 it has become a living house.Some modern things were added in the castle gradually.It was even one of the first homes in England to have electricity（电）.Now it is a comfortable and large place to live.After Windsor Castle，it is the second largest castle in England that people lived in.The Percy family live in the castle but now they only use a part of it.They open the castle to the public（公众） throughout the summer.This castle is also the place that is popular with directors（导演）.The director of Harry Potter movies chose Alnwick Castle to stand in for Hogwarts（霍格沃茨魔法学校）. （26）What is Mr Johnson？ 　 　 A.A traveller.

A. ②③ B. ①③④ C. ①②④ D. ①②③④ B Resting my head on Helen's shoulder，I put my arms round her waist（腰）.She drew me to her，and we rested in silence. We had not sat long before another person came in.Some heavy clouds，swept from the sky by a rising wind，had left the moon bright；and her light，coming in through a window near，shone full both on us and on the coming person，Miss Temple. "I came on purpose to find you，Jane Eyre， " said she. "I want you in my room，and as Helen Burs is with you，she may come too. " We followed Miss Temple to her apartment.It had a good fire，and looked cheerful.Miss Temple told Helen Burns to be seated in a low arm﹣chair on one side of the fire place，and herself asking another，she called me to her side. "Is it all over？" she asked，looking down at my face. "Have you cried your sadness away？" "I am afraid I never shall do that. " "Why？" "Because I have been wrongly accused（指责），and you and everybody else，will think me a bad girl. " "We shall think you what you prove yourself to be，my child.Continue to act as a good girl，and you will satisfy us. " "Shall I，Miss Temple？" "You will. "said Miss Temple， "You have been accused of lying when you were little.Tell us the truth，but add nothing and exaggerate（夸大）nothing.

C As Internet users become more dependent on the Internet to store information，do people remember less？if you know your computer will store information，why do you store it in your own personal memory，your brain？Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how. In a recent study，Professor Betsy Sparrow made some experiments（实验）.She and her research team wanted to know how the Internet is changing memory. In the first experiment，they asked two groups of people to put 40 unimportant facts into a computer.The first group of people understood that the computer would store the information.The second group understood that the computer would not store it.Later，the second group remembered the information better.People in the first group knew they could find the information again，so they did not try to remember it. In the second experiment，the researchers gave people facts to remember，and told them where to find the information on the Internet.The information was in an exact in an exact computer folder（文件夹）.Surprisingly，people later remember where the folder is better than the facts.When people use the Internet，they do not remember the information.However，they remember how to find it.This is called "transitive memory （交互记忆）". According to Sparrow，we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet.Instead，computer users are developing stronger transitive memories；that is，people are learning how to organize a lot of information so that they are able to get it at a later date.This doesn't mean we are becoming either more or less clever，but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing. （32）Why does the writer begin the text with two questions？ 　 　 A．To explain some thoughts.

B．People remember how to find the information. C．People remember how to make a folder. D．People keep the information in mind. （35）What's Professor Betsy Sparrow's conclusion（结论）？ 　 　 A．People become more and more clever. B．The way people use memory is changing. C．The way people make experiments is changing. D．People's memories become poorer than before.

When we play with smartphones，we don't know what well see next，or who will send us a message.This uncertainty（不确定性） makes the dopamine system（系统） active. （43）　 　And to get more dopamine，we continue checking our phones.Studying doesn't provide such uncertainty.Without this excitement，we get bored much more easily. （44）　 　 According to scientists，apps can become less interesting if we turn off notifications（通知） or change the screen colors to black and white.We can also set time limits（限制） on apps to avoid using them too much. "As for studying，you could check our progress daily or weekly and reward yourself for it，"said Daniel Wong，writer of The Happy Student."You could also search for interesting topics connected with your textbooks. （45）　 　 This will make knowledge much more interesting to learn."

In a tea garden in Hangzhou，a smart tea﹣picking robot invented by Zhejiang Sci﹣Tech University is working for the first time."We take thousands of pictures of new tea buds（芽） and input them into the robot for it to learn.The robot uses an AI model to recognise（识别） the buds it should pick，"said Professor Chen Jianneng，member of the research team.This helps the robot find the right tea buds about 90 percent of the time. The robot's arm pulls and then sucks（吸） up the tea buds.These buds are quickly moved into a special box.Once the robot has collected all the buds from the area it's working at，it moves the buds from the box to a main box that holds everything it collects. The robot was made because there are not enough people to pick tea.In Zhejiang，about 400，000 pickers are needed now. "Picking is the greatest challenge for the development of the tea industry，"said Professor Wu Chuanyu，who leads the research team. "About five years from now，the robots will do the job of picking West Lake Longjing tea instead of people，"Wu added. 注：每题答案不超过6个词。 （61）How are West Lake Longjing tea leaves usually picked？ 　 　 （62）What are input into the robot for it to learn？ 　 　 （63）How does the robot recognise the buds it should pick？ 　 　 （64）How many pickers are needed in Zhejiang？ 　 　 （65）What do you think of the tea﹣picking robot？ 　 　 六、书面表达（满分20分） 66．请你根据下列表格中的内容要点提示，用英语写一篇短文，简述阅读现状及你对阅读的看法和打算。 阅读现状 阅读益处 你的打算 1.阅读很少 2.看电视多 3.玩游戏多 1.增长知识 2.了解世界 3.促进思考 学生自拟（至少两点） 要求： 1.词数80左右。短文的开头已写好，不计入总词数； 2.短文中不得出现真实的人名、校名等相关信息。 The government are working to encourage a love of reading among all Chinese people. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 试卷第6页，共7页 ( 1 / 8 ) 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ ( ………………○……………… 外 ………………○……………… 装 ………………○……………… 订 ………………○……………… 线 ………………○……………… ) ( ………………○……………… 内 ………………○……………… 装 ………………○……………… 订 ………………○……………… 线 ………………○……………… ) ( 此卷只装订 不密封 ) ( ………………○……………… 内 ………………○……………… 装 ………………○……………… 订 ………………○……………… 线 ………………○……………… ………………○……………… 外 ………………○……………… 装 ………………○……………… 订 ………………○……………… 线 ………………○……………… … 学校： ______________ 姓名： _____________ 班级： _______________ 考号： ______________________ ) 2024-2025学年八年级英语下学期期中模拟卷（徐州专用） （考试时间：100分钟 试卷满分：110分） 注意事项： 1．本试卷分第Ⅰ卷（选择题）和第Ⅱ卷（非选择题）两部分。答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2．回答第Ⅰ卷时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。写在本试卷上无效。 3．回答第Ⅱ卷时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 4．测试范围：Units 1~4，译林版八年级下册。 5. 难度系数：0.65。 6．考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 选择题（满分65分） 一、单项填空（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） 请认真阅读下列各题，从题中所给的A.B.C.D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 1．—How Many Students Are There In Each Group？ —Usually Each Group _______ Six Students In Our Class．（　　） A．Is Made From B．Is Made Up Of C．Is Made In D．Is Made Of 2．Sally Sat ______ Harry And They Had Lunch Face To Face．（　　） A．Beside B．Next To C．Opposite D．Behind 3．— What Would You Like To Drink，Joe？ — I'd Like a Cup Of Coffee_____Milk，Please.i Like The Taste.（　　） A．With B．In C．From D．Of 4．— Do You Mind My Smoking Here？— ___________．Look At The Sign．It Says，"No Smoking"．（　　） A．You'd Better Not． B．It Doesn't Matter C．Yes，Please D．No，i Don't 5．The Teacher Spoke_______She Could To Make The Students Understand Her.（　　） A．As Clear As B．As Clearly As.

In a tea garden in Hangzhou，a smart tea﹣picking robot invented by Zhejiang Sci﹣Tech University is working for the first time."We take thousands of pictures of new tea buds（芽） and input them into the robot for it to learn.The robot uses an AI model to recognise（识别） the buds it should pick，"said Professor Chen Jianneng，member of the research team.This helps the robot find the right tea buds about 90 percent of the time. The robot's arm pulls and then sucks（吸） up the tea buds.These buds are quickly moved into a special box.Once the robot has collected all the buds from the area it's working at，it moves the buds from the box to a main box that holds everything it collects. The robot was made because there are not enough people to pick tea.In Zhejiang，about 400，000 pickers are needed now. "Picking is the greatest challenge for the development of the tea industry，"said Professor Wu Chuanyu，who leads the research team. "About five years from now，the robots will do the job of picking West Lake Longjing tea instead of people，"Wu added. 注：每题答案不超过6个词。 （61）How are West Lake Longjing tea leaves usually picked？ 　 　 （62）What are input into the robot for it to learn？ 　 　 （63）How does the robot recognise the buds it should pick？ 　 　 （64）How many pickers are needed in Zhejiang？ 　 　 （65）What do you think of the tea﹣picking robot？ 　 　 六、书面表达（满分20分） 66．请你根据下列表格中的内容要点提示，用英语写一篇短文，简述阅读现状及你对阅读的看法和打算。 阅读现状 阅读益处 你的打算 1.阅读很少 2.看电视多 3.玩游戏多 1.增长知识 2.了解世界 3.促进思考 学生自拟（至少两点） 要求： 1.词数80左右。短文的开头已写好，不计入总词数； 2.短文中不得出现真实的人名、校名等相关信息。 The government are working to encourage a love of reading among all Chinese people. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 试题 第3页（共10页） 试题 第4页（共10页） 试题 第1页（共10页） 试题 第2页（共10页） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024-2025学年八年级下学期期中模拟卷（徐州专用） 英语·参考答案 （考试时间：100分钟 试卷满分：110分） 一、单项填空（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） 1-5 BCAAB 6-10 DBCBB 二、完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 11-15 BADBC 16-20 ACBBD 21-25 CDBBC 三、阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分20分） 26-28 DCB 29-31 CDA 32-35 BDBB 36-40 BBBBA 41-45 DFCAE 四、词语运用（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） A）46. world﹣famous 47. bottom 48.
