If you haven’t tried the latter (后者), maybe you should join the growing number of people and enjoy the simple pleasures of camping. By picking up your tent and some other living things, it’s easy to go up to the countryside and enjoy a night or two in the open air. Many campers are just staying away from their modern and hectic life to do this. They say that a few peaceful nights in the faraway country might be a good way to relax and improve sleep and health. It is also, of course, a good cheap holiday choice. Armed (配备) with just some food and a sleeping bag, people are free from rules, away from other people, and able to enjoy the back-to-basics time. One wild camper said, “The act of sleeping—when everybody else has gone home but you notice the wild and stars—is one of the best things in life.” Now as more and more people join in camping, sales of camping gear (装备) have jumped, such as stoves, cool boxes and camping chairs. With these useful things like stoves, and easy-to-cook food, you can make sure of having a comfortable and enjoyable camping. So when the weather is good, maybe it’s time to give camping a try. 63. The underlined word “hectic” in paragraph 2 probably means “________”. A. busy B. calm C. slow D. happy 64. From the passage, we can infer that ________. A. people can go out camping whenever they like B. the life in the country is better than that in a city C. nobody likes to live in a comfortable but expensive hotel D. more people would like to go a little far from home on holidays 65. What would be the best title for this passage? A. Living a Simple Life B. Pleasures Must Always Be Simple C. Keeping Free from Rules D. Camping Can Be So Much Fun D I grew up in the countryside. It helped me learn more life skills than my peers (同龄人) who grew up in cities. I learned to cook at the age of 10. The first skill I had was making dumplings. Later, I cooked other dishes. I fell in love with cooking. It’s a good way to relax. Now living alone, I cook every meal instead of ordering delivery (外卖). It saves money and I don’t have to wait for delivery drivers to feed me. Besides (除了) cooking, I did a lot of farm work in my childhood. I got to know how to plant vegetables. Though it was hard work, the experience taught me things that many of my peers still don’t know. They thought it was a pity that they didn’t have the chance (机会) to learn these things in their lives. Some might say we can learn these things from textbooks. But it can’t compare to the joy of watching plants grow. You’ll value (重视) everything on your plate. This may be why I’m so happy to hear that labor (劳动) education will be required (要求) in China. Students in primary and middle schools will have at least one class every week to learn some life skills like cooking and cleaning. Trust me. These life skills will help you a lot. 66. Which is not the advantage (优点) of getting life skills for the writer? A. Becoming busier. B. Saving money. C. Relaxing. D. Valuing food. 67. How did the writer learn to plant vegetables? A. By discussing it with her peers. B. By learning it at school. C. By doing it herself. D. By reading books about it. 68. Why is the writer happy to hear that labor education will be required in China? A. Because these life skills will help students a lot. B. Because the life skills can bring good jobs to students. C. Because she teaches students life skills in school. D. Because it’s better to learn life skills in school than at home. 69. What is the best title (标题) for the text (文章)? A. What we can learn in villages B. How to plant vegetables C. Life in Chinese villages D. The importance of labor education E Weekends, air conditioners (空调), takeouts (外卖) … These are common things for modern people. Have you ever wondered whether ancient people enjoyed the same lifestyle? No weekends In ancient China, there were no “weekends” because people did not use a weekly calendar. But they could still relax after work. For example, officials (官员) usually worked for 10 days and rested for one day. This day was called xiumu. There were many public holidays in ancient times for common people to rest, such as the Spring Festival, winter solstice (冬至) and Mid-Autumn Festival. People even had days off for the emperor’s (皇帝的) birthday. Smart ways of staying cool In ancient times, ______. As early as the Zhou Dynasty, people collected ice in winter. When summer came, people took the ice out and used them. The “bingjian” was a type of ancient fridge. People would put drinks inside and the drinks would become colder. There was a kind of pillow (枕头) made of china that felt pleasantly cool. People also wove bamboo into bed mats (垫子) to sleep on. Takeouts not a new thing The takeout is not a new thing. According to history books, Eanperor Xiaozong asked his men to go out to pick up dishes. Common people also ordered takeouts. Restaurant waiters would go out into the streets and tell customers which dishes could be ordered. People even had good tools to carry takeout dishes. They have several layers (层) plates made of two layers of china. Hot water could be put between them to keep dishes warm. 70. On which days can common people rest in ancient China? ①weekends ②xiumu ③winter solstice ④the emperor’s birthday A. ①② B. ②③ C. ①④ D. ③④ 71. Which of the following is the best to fill in the blank “________”? A. the summer was always too hot to stand for most people B. people had their own good ideas to get through the hot summer C. the weather was not very hot in summer D. few people thought of possible ways to stay cool in hot summer 72. What does the underlined word “They” in the last paragraph refer to? A. Takeout dishes. B. People. C. Tools. D. Restaurants. F 阅读下面短文，并用英语回答问题（请注意每小题的词数要求）。 About 2300 years ago, the area around Chengdu had bad floods (洪水) in spring every year. Luckily, the Qin governor (太守), Li Bing, was a water engineer. The king of Qin provided the money and asked the governor to solve the problem. The usual method to avoid flooding is to build a wall across the river, called a dam. However, the king had also asked Li Bing to make sure that ships could still use the river because the king needed to send food to his army. So Li Bing studied the situation and came up with a plan—a plan that still works today! Helped by his son, and tens of thousands of workers from the area, Li Bing built a man-made island in the middle of the river. This island was shaped like a fish and it divided the water into an inner river (内河) and an outer river. The inner river was deeper than but not as wide as the outer river. It took four years to build the island. Li Bing also cut a new channel (运河) through Mount Yulei. This channel would take water away to irrigate (灌溉) the land in the flat farmland below. The rock of the mountain was very hard and difficult to cut. Cutting the channel took eight years! After Li Bing’s work was finished, there were no more floods, and the Dujiangyan irrigation system (灌溉系统) allowed the farmers to grow more and more food. Today, scientists and visitors from all over the world come to look at this wonderful example of engineering. This work and the name of Li Bing live on. 73.

Do you like the luxury (奢华) of a five-star hotel, or do you like the freedom of sleeping under the stars? If you haven’t tried the latter (后者), maybe you should join the growing number of people and enjoy the simple pleasures of camping. By picking up your tent and some other living things, it’s easy to go up to the countryside and enjoy a night or two in the open air. Many campers are just staying away from their modern and hectic life to do this. They say that a few peaceful nights in the faraway country might be a good way to relax and improve sleep and health. It is also, of course, a good cheap holiday choice. Armed (配备) with just some food and a sleeping bag, people are free from rules, away from other people, and able to enjoy the back-to-basics time. One wild camper said, “The act of sleeping—when everybody else has gone home but you notice the wild and stars—is one of the best things in life.” Now as more and more people join in camping, sales of camping gear (装备) have jumped, such as stoves, cool boxes and camping chairs.

They say that a few peaceful nights in the faraway country might be a good way to relax and improve sleep and health.”可知，露营者远离现代“hectic”的生活，去遥远的乡村享受宁静的夜晚来放松，可推测“hectic”与“peaceful”意思相反，意为“忙碌的”，故选A。 【64题详解】 推理判断题。根据“If you haven’t tried the latter (后者), maybe you should join the growing number of people and enjoy the simple pleasures of camping.”以及“Now as more and more people join in camping, sales of camping gear (装备) have jumped”可知，越来越多的人喜欢在假期去离家稍远的地方露营，故选D。 【65题详解】 最佳标题题。根据“maybe you should join the growing number of people and enjoy the simple pleasures of camping.”以及全文内容可知，本文主要讲述露营的乐趣，选项D“露营可以非常有趣”符合语境，故选D。 D I grew up in the countryside.

But it can’t compare to the joy of watching plants grow. You’ll value (重视) everything on your plate. This may be why I’m so happy to hear that labor (劳动) education will be required (要求) in China. Students in primary and middle schools will have at least one class every week to learn some life skills like cooking and cleaning. Trust me. These life skills will help you a lot. 66.

Luckily, the Qin governor (太守), Li Bing, was a water engineer. The king of Qin provided the money and asked the governor to solve the problem. The usual method to avoid flooding is to build a wall across the river, called a dam. However, the king had also asked Li Bing to make sure that ships could still use the river because the king needed to send food to his army. So Li Bing studied the situation and came up with a plan—a plan that still works today! Helped by his son, and tens of thousands of workers from the area, Li Bing built a man-made island in the middle of the river. This island was shaped like a fish and it divided the water into an inner river (内河) and an outer river. The inner river was deeper than but not as wide as the outer river. It took four years to build the island. Li Bing also cut a new channel (运河) through Mount Yulei. This channel would take water away to irrigate (灌溉) the land in the flat farmland below. The rock of the mountain was very hard and difficult to cut. Cutting the channel took eight years! After Li Bing’s work was finished, there were no more floods, and the Dujiangyan irrigation system (灌溉系统) allowed the farmers to grow more and more food. Today, scientists and visitors from all over the world come to look at this wonderful example of engineering. This work and the name of Li Bing live on. 73.

He was a governor and a water engineer. 74. To send food to his army./Because the king needed to send food to his army. 75. A wonderful example of engineering. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了约2300年前，成都周边每年春天都会有严重的洪水，秦国太守李冰作为水利工程师，在秦王的资助下，带领众人修建了都江堰灌溉系统。 【73题详解】 根据“the Qin governor (太守), Li Bing, was a water engineer”可知，文中明确指出李冰是秦国的太守，同时也是一位水利工程师，所以他的工作是太守和水利工程师，故填He was a governor and a water engineer. 【74题详解】 根据“the king needed to send food to his army”可知，国王要求李冰确保船只仍能使用这条河，原因是国王需要给军队运送粮食，故填To send food to his army./ Because the king needed to send food to his army. 【75题详解】 根据“this wonderful example of engineering”可知，作者认为都江堰灌溉系统是工程学上的一个精彩范例，故填A wonderful example of engineering. 第四部分 写（共两大题；满分25分） Ⅸ．单词拼写（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分） 根据首字母和汉语提示，完成下列单词的拼写，使句意明确，语言通顺。 76. T________ (游客) must show their ID cards before they go into the museum. 【答案】(T)ourists 【解析】 【详解】句意：游客进入博物馆前必须出示身份证。根据中文提示“游客”及首字母“T”可知，此处需填名词“tourist”。句首字母大写，“Tourists”表示“游客”，泛指游客进入博物馆需出示证件。故填(T)ourists。 77. I’ll c______ (检查) out all the numbers and make sure that they’re right. 【答案】(c)heck 【解析】 【详解】句意：我会检查所有的数字，确保它们是正确的。分析题干可知，此处缺动词作谓语，又结合首字母及汉语提示可知，此处应用动词check表示“检查”，助动词will后接动词原形。故填(c)heck。 78. He could not come up with a ________（适当的）way to tell her his feelings. 【答案】proper 【解析】 【详解】句意：他想不出一个合适的方法来告诉她他的感受。根据汉语提示，“适当的”用形容词proper，修饰名词way。故填proper。 79.

I’m a 14-year old middle school student. I am happy to share my own ideas about doing housework with you. I think doing housework is necessary and meaningful, which makes me happy and more responsible. I often do housework, such as making the bed, washing the dishes and taking out the rubbish. Sometimes I also sweep the floor to make our house a clean place. In my opinion, we must share the housework. First of all, we can’t depend on our parents forever. Therefore, doing housework can make us independent when we grow up. What’s more, sharing the housework is helpful for us to build a good relationship with our parents. Besides, I think trying to do some housework can also keep us healthy and strong. So it is necessary for us to do housework at home in our free time. 【解析】 【详解】[总体分析] ①题材：本文是一封材料作文； ②时态：本文应使用“一般现在时”为主； ③提示：写作要点应注意题干给出的“介绍自己对做家务的看法”并适当补充，使文章内容充实。 [写作步骤] 第一步，借用文章已给开头，表明写作意图； 第二步，根据题干中的要点，详细描述自己是否经常做家务并介绍原因，介绍自己经常做的家务活是什么； 第三步，描述自己对做家务的感受，肯定做家务的积极作用并收尾。 [亮点词汇] ①such as例如 ②grow up长大 [高分句型] ①I think doing housework is necessary and meaningful, which makes me happy and more responsible.（which引导的非限制性定语从句） ②So it is necessary for us to do housework at home in our free time.（it is adj for sb to do sth固定句型） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$霍邱县2024年至2025年学年度第二学期期末考试八年级英语听力测试。一短对话理解，你将听到5段对话，每段对话后有一个小题请，在每小题所给的ABC3个选项中选出一个最佳选项，每段对话读两遍。Number one. have ever been late for school? john?
