In my opinion, teenagers should definitely help with housework.​ As we all know, there are many chores that teenagers can do. For example, we can fold the clothes after washing, tidy up our rooms, and even help cook simple meals. Although these tasks are easy, they are very useful. Doing chores helps us grow, not just help parents. Here are three reasons why teenagers should do housework. First, it develops life skills. Cooking teaches us to feed ourselves, and organizing makes us independent. These skills are useful for living alone. Second, chores build responsibility. Finishing tasks on time makes us reliable, which helps studies and work. Third, doing chores with family improves teamwork. We communicate better and understand each other, making family bonds stronger. In conclusion, doing chores is not just work—it’s a chance for us to grow, and it plays a vital role in shaping us into responsible and capable individuals as well as better family members. 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司1 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2025-2026学年八年级上册英语单元测试 Unit1·提升卷 学校:___________班级：___________姓名：___________分数：___________ （时间：90分钟，满分：100分） 一、完形填空(本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) “Is it OK to let my child do the chores at home?”“Should I punish（惩罚）him if he 1 to do the chores?” Parents often think of these questions. 2 should parents do to get their children to do the chores?

How about the teenagers in big cities? Here is a survey. We asked 4,000 teenagers in China several questions. Half of them come from big cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. The others are from small villages. We made a diagram of the result of our survey. Let’s have a look at it. We found out that teenagers from small villages do more chores than those from big cities. Maybe it is because they live a harder life. Our advice to parents in big cities is that parents should give their children some chores to do. Doing chores teaches teenagers to take care of themselves. 11．They surveyed ______ teenagers from small villages. A．1,000 B．2,000 C．3,000 D．4,000 12．There are 1,000 teenagers from the cities who ______. A．take out the trash B．do the dishes C．make the bed D．fold the clothes 13．Fewer than ______ teenagers in big cities sweep the floor and make the bed. A．500 B．1,000 C．1,500 D．2,000 14．The number of teenagers ______ in big cities is bigger than that in small villages. A．making the bed B．taking out the trash C．folding the clothes D．doing the dishes 15．Why did they make the survey? A．Because they don’t want teenagers in China to do chores at home. B．Because they thought it will help teenagers to take good care of themselves to do chores. C．Because they wanted to know if teenagers in China do chores at home. D．Because they thought it is not necessary for teenagers to look after themselves. 【答案】11．B 12．A 13．D 14．C 15．C 【分析】这篇短文中作者主要讲述了在中国4000多名青少年中就是否做家务做的调查报告的结果。从结果中可以看到农村的孩子比大城市的孩子做的家务相对要多一些。 11．推理判断题。根据短文“We asked 4,000 teenagers in China several questions. Half of them come from big cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. The others are from small villages.”可知总共4000名青少年，一半来自大城市，其余来自农村，由此推算农村有2000青少年。故选B。 12．细节理解题。根据表格可以看出选A。有1000名来自城市的青少年倒过垃圾。故选A。 13．推理判断题。根据表格，大城市的青少年扫地的有850，整理床铺的有750，总共1600，故比起这两样的人数少于2000，故选D。 14．细节理解题。根据表格可以看出，只有叠衣服的人数城市多用于农村，故选C。 15．细节理解题。根据短文“Do teenagers in small villages do chores at home?”可知这次调查想知道青少年是否做家务。故选C。 B Labor classes at school can help students be active, creative (有创造力的) and happy in life. At the same time, students can learn the meaning of labor. From last September, all students in middle school can have at least one labor class a week. There are many interesting labor classes now. Students from a school in Chongqing had a class about catching fish in the river and learning about their habits. In Shanxi Province, students made tofu with beans. They also cooked it by themselves. The labor classes made them feel happy when they cooked delicious meals. Some students also kept small animals at home like chickens. This helped students learn how to care for living things and also made them more interested in biology. According to the new policy (政策), middle school students need to learn the following skills in labor classes: Clean their rooms and classrooms, pick proper (合适的) clothes for travel, cook three or four meals, and take part in labor activities such as planting or fishing. A study shows that doing labor work is good for students. The students can get more self-control, do better in school, and feel happier from it.

His parents always had him do lots of housework such as taking out the rubbish and sending newspapers. But when he grew up, he was better than his childhood friends and lived a happier and healthier life. This is the finding of a 40-year study that followed the lives of 456 children in London. It showed that the children who worked hard in childhood had a richer and a happier future. “Children who worked at home in childhood got more abilities and came to feel they were important members of the society,” said Daniel Brown, the psychologist (心理学家) who made the study. “And because they felt good about themselves, and others felt good about them.” Brown’s study followed these children in great information. They made the study about the children at ages 25, 31 and 47. Under Brown, the researchers compared the children’s mental-health scores with their childhood-activity scores. The children got more points for part-time jobs, housework, effort in school, and ability to deal with problems. Working hard at any age is important. Childhood activities help a child develop responsibility, independence, confidence and ability—the underpinnings (基础) of emotional (情感的) health. They also help him understand that people must work together and work toward common goals. The most competent (合格的) adults are those who know how to do this. Yet work isn’t everything. As Tolstoy once said, “One can live great in this world if one knows how to work and how to love, to work for the person one loves and to love one’s work.” 21．What do we know about Justin Tong? A．He enjoyed a happy life. B．He felt sorry for the other kids. C．He always sold newspapers. D．He hardly took out the rubbish. 22．Who will probably succeed in the future according to Paragraph 2? A．Children who enjoy happier and richer lives. B．Children who work at home in childhood. C．Children who take part in Daniel Brown’s study. D．Children who feel good about people around them. 23．What does the underlined word “They” refer to in the last paragraph? A．Responsibility and independence. B．Confidence and ability. C．Childhood activities. D．Part-time jobs. 24．Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage? A．①/②③/④ B．①/②/③④ C．①②③/④ D．①/②③④ 25．What is the passage mainly about? A．Working is helpful for children’s growth. B．Every child should help work at home. C．A child should do more and more work. D．Working can help solve many problems. 【答案】21．A 22．B 23．C 24．A 25．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要通过Justin Tong的例子以及一项长达40年的研究，说明童年时期的劳动和努力对孩子未来的积极影响。 21．细节理解题。根据第一段“But when he grew up, he was better than his childhood friends and lived a happier and healthier life.”可知，Justin Tong长大后过着幸福健康的生活。故选A。 22．细节理解题。根据第二段“It showed that the children who worked hard in childhood had a richer and a happier future.”以及“Children who worked at home in childhood got more abilities and came to feel they were important members of the society”可知，童年时期在家劳动的孩子未来更可能成功。故选B。 23．词义猜测题。根据最后一段“Working hard at any age is important. Childhood activities help a child develop responsibility, independence, confidence and ability—the underpinnings (基础) of emotional (情感的) health. They also help him understand that people must work together and work toward common goals.”可知，童年活动帮助孩子发展责任感、独立性、自信和能力，还帮助他理解人们必须一起工作，朝着共同的目标努力，此处是指童年活动的好处；据此可以推断，划线单词“They”指代的是“Childhood activities”。故选C。 24．篇章结构题。文章第一段通过Justin Tong的例子引出话题；第二段和第三段介绍了一项关于童年劳动与未来关系的研究；第四段总结童年活动对孩子成长的重要性；因此，本文的结构是①/②③/④。故选A。 25．主旨大意题。综合全文可知，本文主要通过举例和研究说明童年时期的劳动和努力对孩子未来的积极影响，即劳动有助于孩子的成长。故选A。 D 请阅读下面短文，根据语篇内容，从下面所给的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，使短文意思通顺，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有一项为多余项。 Are you ready to put down your iPads and mobile phones and pick up spatulas and brooms (锅铲和扫帚)?

But when he grew up, he was better off than his childhood friends and lived a happier and healthier life. This is one of the cases of a 40-year study that followed the lives of 456 children in London. The study, led by Daniel Brown, a psychologist (心理学家) in the UK, aimed to find out the connection between childhood labor work (劳动) and later life success. The study followed these children’s lives closely from a very young age. The researchers interviewed them about their lives at the ages of 25, 31, and 47. And they compared two things: how much labor work the children did during their childhood and how successful their later lives were. The study showed that children who did more childhood labor work had a better future. They were more likely to get good pay, overcome difficulties bravely and have good relationships with different people. That’s because childhood labor work can not only help children develop abilities, independence, and a sense of responsibility but also help them understand that people must work together towards common goals. It’s never too late to start doing labor work today. Get ready and take on every task, no matter how small it is. Always remember, your labor work will bring you closer to a better and happier future. 51．Why did other kids feel sorry for Justin Tong when he was a child? 52．How long did the study last? 53．What did the study show? 54．Did childhood labor work help children understand teamwork according to the study? 55．What labor work do you think you can do in your daily lives? 【答案】51．Because his parents always made him do lots of housework. 52．It lasted (for) 40 years./(For) 40 years. 53．It showed that children who did more childhood labor had a better future. 54．Yes, it did. 55．开放性试题，言之有理即可。参考答案为：I think I can do housework like cleaning my room and washing dishes. 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章通过Justin Tong的案例和英国心理学家Daniel Brown的40 年研究，揭示了童年劳动与人生成功的正相关关系。研究表明，童年参与劳动能培养能力、独立性和责任感，帮助孩子理解团队合作，从而在未来获得更好的生活。作者呼吁读者从现在开始积极参与劳动，无论任务大小，以迈向更幸福的未来。 51．根据第一段“When Justin Tong was a child, other kids felt sorry for him because his parents always made him do lots of housework,”可知，其他孩子同情他是因为父母让他做很多家务。故填Because his parents always made him do lots of housework. 52．根据第二段“This is one of the cases of a 40-year study that followed the lives of 456 children in London.”可知，这项研究持续了40年。故填It lasted (for) 40 years./(For) 40 years. 53．根据第三段“The study showed that children who did more childhood labor work had a better future.”可知，童年劳动更多的孩子未来更好。故填It showed that children who did more childhood labor had a better future. 54．根据第三段“That’s because childhood labor work can not only help children develop abilities, independence, and a sense of responsibility but also help them understand that people must work together towards common goals.”可知，童年时期的劳动有助于孩子们理解团队合作。故填Yes, it did. 55．开放性试题，言之有理即可。参考答案为：I think I can do housework like cleaning my room and washing dishes. 六、书面表达(本大题共1小题，共20分) 56．某英文网站正在开展以“Should teenagers do chores?”为题的征文活动，讨论青少年是否应该做家务。假如你是李华，请用英文写一篇短文投稿，谈谈青少年可以做什么家务, 并就“青少年是否应该做家务”这一话题说明你的观点与理由。 提示词语：fold the clothes, life skills, helpful, responsibility, teamwork 提示问题： ●What chores can teenagers do? ●What’s your opinion on teenagers doing chores? ●Why do you think so?       Nowadays, people are discussing whether teenagers should do chores. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 Nowadays, people are discussing whether teenagers should do chores. In my opinion, teenagers should definitely help with housework.​ As we all know, there are many chores that teenagers can do. For example, we can fold the clothes after washing, tidy up our rooms, and even help cook simple meals. Although these tasks are easy, they are very useful. Doing chores helps us grow, not just help parents. Here are three reasons why teenagers should do housework. First, it develops life skills. Cooking teaches us to feed ourselves, and organizing makes us independent. These skills are useful for living alone. Second, chores build responsibility. Finishing tasks on time makes us reliable, which helps studies and work. Third, doing chores with family improves teamwork. We communicate better and understand each other, making family bonds stronger. In conclusion, doing chores is not just work—it’s a chance for us to grow, and it plays a vital role in shaping us into responsible and capable individuals as well as better family members. 【详解】[总体分析] ①题材：本文是一篇议论文，为材料作文； ②时态：时态主要为“一般现在时”； ③提示：文章应该包括三个问题提示要点，要适当补充，使文章内容充实；行文时多用第一人称，尽量多使用短语和句型；写作中适当使用连接词，使行文连贯、顺畅。 [写作步骤] 第一步，以社会讨论切入，明确提出“青少年应该做家务”的核心观点； 第二步，说明青少年能参与的具体家务类型，论证“做家务”的可行性； 第三步，从个人成长与家庭关系两个维度，论证“青少年应该做家务”的必要性； 第四步，总结全文观点，将“做家务”的意义升华至个人成长与家庭责任的高度。 [亮点词汇] ①in one’s opinion 在某人看来 ②play a role in doing sth. 在做某事方面发挥作用 [高分句型] ①First, there are many chores that teenagers can do.

How about the teenagers in big cities? Here is a survey. We asked 4,000 teenagers in China several questions. Half of them come from big cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. The others are from small villages. We made a diagram of the result of our survey. Let’s have a look at it. We found out that teenagers from small villages do more chores than those from big cities. Maybe it is because they live a harder life. Our advice to parents in big cities is that parents should give their children some chores to do. Doing chores teaches teenagers to take care of themselves. 11．They surveyed ______ teenagers from small villages.

D．Because they thought it is not necessary for teenagers to look after themselves. B Labor classes at school can help students be active, creative (有创造力的) and happy in life. At the same time, students can learn the meaning of labor. From last September, all students in middle school can have at least one labor class a week. There are many interesting labor classes now. Students from a school in Chongqing had a class about catching fish in the river and learning about their habits. In Shanxi Province, students made tofu with beans. They also cooked it by themselves. The labor classes made them feel happy when they cooked delicious meals. Some students also kept small animals at home like chickens. This helped students learn how to care for living things and also made them more interested in biology. According to the new policy (政策), middle school students need to learn the following skills in labor classes: Clean their rooms and classrooms, pick proper (合适的) clothes for travel, cook three or four meals, and take part in labor activities such as planting or fishing. A study shows that doing labor work is good for students. The students can get more self-control, do better in school, and feel happier from it. Labor classes not only teach them important skills but also are a great way to relax during a busy school day. So which kind of labor skill do you want to learn most? 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 16．How many labor classes do students in middle school have a week now? A．Zero. B．One or more. C．At least two.

His parents always had him do lots of housework such as taking out the rubbish and sending newspapers. But when he grew up, he was better than his childhood friends and lived a happier and healthier life. This is the finding of a 40-year study that followed the lives of 456 children in London. It showed that the children who worked hard in childhood had a richer and a happier future. “Children who worked at home in childhood got more abilities and came to feel they were important members of the society,” said Daniel Brown, the psychologist (心理学家) who made the study. “And because they felt good about themselves, and others felt good about them.” Brown’s study followed these children in great information. They made the study about the children at ages 25, 31 and 47. Under Brown, the researchers compared the children’s mental-health scores with their childhood-activity scores. The children got more points for part-time jobs, housework, effort in school, and ability to deal with problems. Working hard at any age is important. Childhood activities help a child develop responsibility, independence, confidence and ability—the underpinnings (基础) of emotional (情感的) health. They also help him understand that people must work together and work toward common goals. The most competent (合格的) adults are those who know how to do this. Yet work isn’t everything. As Tolstoy once said, “One can live great in this world if one knows how to work and how to love, to work for the person one loves and to love one’s work.” 21．What do we know about Justin Tong?

D．Children who feel good about people around them. 23．What does the underlined word “They” refer to in the last paragraph? A．Responsibility and independence. B．Confidence and ability. C．Childhood activities. D．Part-time jobs. 24．Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage? A．①/②③/④ B．①/②/③④ C．①②③/④ D．①/②③④ 25．What is the passage mainly about? A．Working is helpful for children’s growth. B．Every child should help work at home. C．A child should do more and more work. D．Working can help solve many problems.

But when he grew up, he was better off than his childhood friends and lived a happier and healthier life. This is one of the cases of a 40-year study that followed the lives of 456 children in London. The study, led by Daniel Brown, a psychologist (心理学家) in the UK, aimed to find out the connection between childhood labor work (劳动) and later life success. The study followed these children’s lives closely from a very young age. The researchers interviewed them about their lives at the ages of 25, 31, and 47. And they compared two things: how much labor work the children did during their childhood and how successful their later lives were. The study showed that children who did more childhood labor work had a better future. They were more likely to get good pay, overcome difficulties bravely and have good relationships with different people. That’s because childhood labor work can not only help children develop abilities, independence, and a sense of responsibility but also help them understand that people must work together towards common goals. It’s never too late to start doing labor work today. Get ready and take on every task, no matter how small it is. Always remember, your labor work will bring you closer to a better and happier future. 51．Why did other kids feel sorry for Justin Tong when he was a child? 52．How long did the study last? 53．What did the study show? 54．Did childhood labor work help children understand teamwork according to the study? 55．What labor work do you think you can do in your daily lives? 六、书面表达(本大题共1小题，共20分) 56．某英文网站正在开展以“Should teenagers do chores?”为题的征文活动，讨论青少年是否应该做家务。假如你是李华，请用英文写一篇短文投稿，谈谈青少年可以做什么家务, 并就“青少年是否应该做家务”这一话题说明你的观点与理由。 提示词语：fold the clothes, life skills, helpful, responsibility, teamwork 提示问题： ●What chores can teenagers do? ●What’s your opinion on teenagers doing chores? ●Why do you think so?       Nowadays, people are discussing whether teenagers should do chores. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司1 / 14 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
