However, some health organizations have quickly warned the public that these lovely wild animals can easily spread the plague (鼠疫). Marmots are widely found in Northwest China. Listed as protected animals in China, they always choose cool mountain grasslands, open deserts, and rocky hills as their homes. They are good at diggings helps, Fresh grass, juicy plants, and fruits like apples and bananas fill their diet. Living in family groups, these social creatures work together and communicate often to survive in the hard environment. Marmots may look cute and harmless, but they can be dangerous. They carry the same disease that caused the Black Death. This terrible disease killed over 100 million people in history. It can spread through small cuts (伤口) or even through the air and cause high fever and bleeding (流血). If sick people wait too long to see a doctor, this disease turns into a killer quickly. The National Health Commission (委员会) advises: Keep a safe distance when meeting wild marmots. Never keep them as pets, and never touch or feed them. See a doctor right away if you have a fever after touching them. The recent online sales of marmots have raised alarms. While their round faces might make us want to get close to them, health organizations remind everyone that cuteness isn’t worth risking lives. 29．What has recently caused people’s interest in marmots? A．A video about marmots. B．The cute appearance of marmots in a movie. C．A new study on marmots. D．Government protection rules. 30．What does the National Health Commission advise people to do? A．Buy marmots online as pets. B．Feed marmots fresh grass. C．Avoid touching marmots. D．Take marmots to desert areas. 31．Why does the writer mention the Black Death in Paragraph 3? A．To show the disease was very dangerous in history. B．To show diseases are similar now and before. C．To describe how marmots move to new places. D．To say old medical care was not good enough. 32．What would be the best title for the article? A．Online Shopping Habits in China B．History of the Black Death C．Marmots: Cute Pets or Silent Killers? D．How to Protect Wild Marmots C ①It is on the 27th of October that WWF China celebrates International Panda Day. WWF China encourages the society to understand that we must care for nature and protect other animals as well as the pandas. We’ll welcome the ninth International Panda Day this year. Let’s take the time to learn a few things about these cute animals in the wild! ②Today, there are about 1,800 pandas in the wild. The animals mainly live on bamboo and other plants. Sometimes, they even eat small animals, such as bamboo rats (鼠). In fact, a very long time ago, pandas mainly ate meat. Their diet turned more than two million years ago. Why? Scientists guess there may have been much more bamboo than meat at the time. This change helped pandas to live. ③Wild pandas like to live alone, they show their own area by leaving their scent (气味). Sometimes, male (雄的) pandas do handstands. It is a way of making their scent go higher and farther. This makes them seem bigger and stronger than other pandas. ④In the wild, it is not easy for pandas to have babies. Female (雌的) pandas only have one chance to produce babies each year. If a female gives birth to twins, she will usually abandon the weaker baby before long, it’s because she doesn’t have enough milk to care for both babies. The mother will raise the stronger baby for about two and a half years. The young panda will then leave her and live by itself. 33．WWF China encourages people to _______. A．understand nature B．raise the stronger panda C．learn a few things about bamboo D．protect pandas and other animals 34．What does the underlined word “abandon” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A．lift B．follow C．leave D．accept 35．What can we know from the text? A．Pandas may live on meat long time ago. B．A panda can give birth to many babies one year. C．Living in groups is the best choice for wild pandas. D．Female pandas leave scent to make them seem bigger. 36．How is the text organized (组织)?（①= Paragraph ①,②= Paragraph ②…） A． B． C． D． D The last Eurasian lynxes (猞猁) in the British Isles lived a life of danger as they moved quickly away from the campfire and vicious (凶险的) dogs, and hid in holes. Because of disappearing woodlands, being short of animals for food, and hunting, lynxes started to disappear from these Islands about 1,500 years ago. But experts hope to bring the Eurasian lynxes back to Scotland one day. Wildlife conservationists (保护者) in Switzerland, Germany, France, and other countries have taken Eurasian lynxes from elsewhere in their areas and introduced them again to protected forests, allowing their populations to grow. Now they are hoping to do the same thing in Scotland. Returning the lynxes would do more than just improve the numbers of this once-endangered animal. A win for the lynxes is a win for the forest and the planet. When the Eurasian lynxes disappeared, so did the Scottish landscape. Without these lynxes and other animals hunting them, deer population increased (增加) a lot. Those animals lived on the leaves of trees and bushes for food, and soon large areas of the Scottish forest disappeared since it couldn’t grow fast enough to keep up with the deer’s wish for food. Birds and rodents that depended on shelter (庇护所) in the lower level of forest plants became food for foxes, which lynxes also hunt. Experts trying to restore (恢复) the forests have to put up fences to keep deer from eating leaves of young trees. But with lynxes hanging out in the woods, experts think these lynxes would keep deer from harming the young trees, helping the forests make a comeback. And that would have even bigger influences. The Earth is losing woodlands as people cut down trees to make room for farming, and to sell the wood for products like furniture and toilet paper. Only in a year alone, the Earth lost as many trees as would cover an area larger than Michigan. So restoring forests in places like Scotland can help provide more space for wildlife and even fight climate change. That’s because trees take in carbon dioxide (二氧化碳), which takes in the sun’s heat and warms our planet. 37．We can know from the passage that the experts are trying to ________. A．buy more lynxes from abroad to keep their populations growing B．ask people to take part in the education program of saving lynxes C．put up more fences to stop deer from eating leaves on the trees D．know about lynxes’ habits to get them used to new environment 38．According to the passage, the experts tell us that ________. A．lynxes play a role in protecting the forests and the planet B．it’s helpful to cut down trees to make room for farming C．putting up more fences can help protect lynxes from dogs D．planting trees has nothing to do with the climate change 39．What’s Paragraph 3 mainly about? A．How we keep the population of wildlife successfully. B．What the disappearance of Eurasian lynxes has led to. C．Why we provide more space for wildlife in the forests. D．When we will bring Eurasian lynxes back to Scotland. 40．What’s the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A．To talk about the food chain of wildlife in the forests. B．To introduce the living habits of the lynxes in Scotland. C．To ask us to take part in the program of raising lynxes. D．To show us a way to protect the forests and the planet. 四、单词拼写 (本大题共5小题，每小题1分，共5分) 41．I can’t go to work today, because I need to take care of my s mother. 42．The taste and smell of a c food can often bring back memories. 43．The g encourages people to use public transport to go around because of the air pollution. 44．He can’t even move because of his i . 45．Mary invited me to go to the movies, and I a the invitation happily. 五、选词填空 (本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) protect, survive, few, kill, environment, help, save, necessary, action, buy, The leopard (豹) is one of the animals in danger. There are 46 leopards in the world now than before. Some poachers (偷猎者) are killing leopards for their fur (皮毛). I think people should stop 47 fur coats.

She counted the hippos. There were not as many hippos as there had been. It hadn’t rained for a long time. Now there was a bad drought and the river was drying up. The animals that lived near this river had no water or grass. Many of them were dying. People were trying to help other animals. But no one was helping the hippos. The hippos were starving (挨饿). They were coming out of the river to look for food. There was nothing for them to eat. Karen put food in the river. Then, she waited. Hippos are not used to being fed by people. She didn’t know what they would do. The hippos, however, were so hungry that they ate the food. Karen made waterholes, but the river dried up more. So, hippo families had to share one waterhole. Sharing was a problem. The hippo families were not good at sharing. The big bulls began to fight with each other. A hippo was killed in the fight. Karen needed to do something. She wrote letters to people asking for help. Many people sent money to her. Karen had enough money to build a dam (水坝). Now, the hippos had their own space. Karen has watched and taken care of hippos for many years. She knows a lot about them. It is strange, but hippos like licking crocodiles. She has seen hippos pulling prey off crocodiles, too. Sometimes Karen takes people to see the hippos. She tells them that if a hippo charges, they must run fast and climb a tree! Hippos can be very dangerous, but they are important. Their big bodies make tracks (足迹) on land. The tracks help other animals to find the waterholes. Hippos keep the grass short. This helps to make a fire break. Hippos need the rivers. And, the world needs hippos. 56．Why were the hippos starving? 57．What did Karen do to help the hippos at first? 58．How did Karen get the money to build a dam? 59．Why are hippos important for the environment? 60．What should we do to protect the animals? 七、短文填空 (本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) 阅读下面短文, 在空白处填入一个适当的词, 或填入括号中所给单词的适当形式。 My name is Pingo. I am a two-year-old emperor penguin (帝企鹅). I live 61 Antarctica (南极洲) with all the other emperor penguins. There are no emperor penguins anywhere else in the world. Together with many other penguins, we make up a group. We spend 62 (we) whole lives here and the temperature can drop to-75°F. We have special 63 (way) of keeping warm. Emperor penguins are 64 (large) penguins in the world. In our group, 65 an emperor penguin is 9 months old, he is fully grown (成年的). The tallest in my group is Pablo—4 feet tall. Emperor penguins are heavy too. Pablo is more than 100 pounds. I'm not as tall as Pablo. A funny thing about us is that we are birds with wings (翅膀), 66 we can’t fly. We use our wings 67 (help) us swim faster under water. Most emperor penguins live for 15 to 20 years. Polly, a member of our group, will be 38 this year. She’s 68 (real) old as a penguin. I am getting a little worried about 69 future of emperor penguins. The weather is changing in the Antarctic sea and that could greatly hurt us. Scientists say we could all 70 (die) by the year 2100 if it keeps getting warmer and warmer. That’s too bad. 试卷第1页，共3页 1 / 12 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 61._______________ 62._______________ 63._______________ 64._______________ 65._______________ 66._______________ 67._______________ 68._______________ 69._______________ 70._______________ 八、书面表达（共10分） 71．人和动物共同生活在这个美丽的地球，互相影响，互相依存。某英文报正在举办以“Saving wild animals”为主题的征文活动，请根据以下问题提示，写一篇英语短文投稿。 提示：1.

Many wild animals don’t have enough places to live. People keep taking their living places to make more space for farms and buildings. This will lead to less and less food and space for wildlife. Moreover, wild animals face serious problems in the wild. People hunt wild animals for their fur, bones or other parts of their body. We protect wild animals not only because wild animals are our friends but also because wild animals help keep a balance between humans and nature. If there are no wild animals, there will be no humans. Therefore, we must take action to save wild animals. First, we shouldn’t buy fur coats any more. Second, we can write to the government and give some advice. Last but not least, we should call on everybody to know the importance of wildlife. $$ 2025-2026学年八年级上册英语单元测试 Unit 5·提升卷 学校:___________班级：___________姓名：___________分数：___________ （时间：90分钟，满分：100分） 一、单项选择 (本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) 1．Mr. Guppy was very large.

They are well worth the name— heroes! A．take notes B．take place C．take risks D．take photos 【答案】C 【解析】句意：那些冒险拯救他人的人有强烈的责任感。他们是名副其实的英雄！ 考查动词短语辨析。take notes记笔记；take place发生；take risks冒险；take photos拍照。根据空后“to save others”可知是冒险拯救他人。故选C。 8．The skirt was too expensive for her, so she decided ________ it.

A．feel; keep B．to feel; to keep C．feel; to keep D．to feel; keep 【答案】C 【解析】句意：雪让他们觉得冷，所以他们不得不生火取暖。 考查非谓语动词。make sb do sth.“让某人做某事”，空格处填省略to的动词不定式作宾语补足语，根据“they had to make a fire”和“warm”可推测，“生火” 的目的是 “保暖” ，用动词不定式 “to keep” 作目的状语。故选C。 10．The water ________ is very serious in Taihu Lake now, the government must prevent people from ________ it.

This made people start buying real marmots online as pets. However, some health organizations have quickly warned the public that these lovely wild animals can easily spread the plague (鼠疫). Marmots are widely found in Northwest China. Listed as protected animals in China, they always choose cool mountain grasslands, open deserts, and rocky hills as their homes. They are good at diggings helps, Fresh grass, juicy plants, and fruits like apples and bananas fill their diet. Living in family groups, these social creatures work together and communicate often to survive in the hard environment. Marmots may look cute and harmless, but they can be dangerous. They carry the same disease that caused the Black Death. This terrible disease killed over 100 million people in history. It can spread through small cuts (伤口) or even through the air and cause high fever and bleeding (流血). If sick people wait too long to see a doctor, this disease turns into a killer quickly. The National Health Commission (委员会) advises: Keep a safe distance when meeting wild marmots. Never keep them as pets, and never touch or feed them. See a doctor right away if you have a fever after touching them. The recent online sales of marmots have raised alarms.

WWF China encourages the society to understand that we must care for nature and protect other animals as well as the pandas. We’ll welcome the ninth International Panda Day this year. Let’s take the time to learn a few things about these cute animals in the wild! ②Today, there are about 1,800 pandas in the wild. The animals mainly live on bamboo and other plants. Sometimes, they even eat small animals, such as bamboo rats (鼠). In fact, a very long time ago, pandas mainly ate meat. Their diet turned more than two million years ago. Why? Scientists guess there may have been much more bamboo than meat at the time. This change helped pandas to live. ③Wild pandas like to live alone, they show their own area by leaving their scent (气味). Sometimes, male (雄的) pandas do handstands. It is a way of making their scent go higher and farther. This makes them seem bigger and stronger than other pandas. ④In the wild, it is not easy for pandas to have babies. Female (雌的) pandas only have one chance to produce babies each year. If a female gives birth to twins, she will usually abandon the weaker baby before long, it’s because she doesn’t have enough milk to care for both babies. The mother will raise the stronger baby for about two and a half years. The young panda will then leave her and live by itself. 33．WWF China encourages people to _______. A．understand nature B．raise the stronger panda C．learn a few things about bamboo D．protect pandas and other animals 34．What does the underlined word “abandon” in paragraph 4 probably mean?

Because of disappearing woodlands, being short of animals for food, and hunting, lynxes started to disappear from these Islands about 1,500 years ago. But experts hope to bring the Eurasian lynxes back to Scotland one day. Wildlife conservationists (保护者) in Switzerland, Germany, France, and other countries have taken Eurasian lynxes from elsewhere in their areas and introduced them again to protected forests, allowing their populations to grow. Now they are hoping to do the same thing in Scotland. Returning the lynxes would do more than just improve the numbers of this once-endangered animal. A win for the lynxes is a win for the forest and the planet. When the Eurasian lynxes disappeared, so did the Scottish landscape. Without these lynxes and other animals hunting them, deer population increased (增加) a lot. Those animals lived on the leaves of trees and bushes for food, and soon large areas of the Scottish forest disappeared since it couldn’t grow fast enough to keep up with the deer’s wish for food. Birds and rodents that depended on shelter (庇护所) in the lower level of forest plants became food for foxes, which lynxes also hunt. Experts trying to restore (恢复) the forests have to put up fences to keep deer from eating leaves of young trees. But with lynxes hanging out in the woods, experts think these lynxes would keep deer from harming the young trees, helping the forests make a comeback. And that would have even bigger influences. The Earth is losing woodlands as people cut down trees to make room for farming, and to sell the wood for products like furniture and toilet paper. Only in a year alone, the Earth lost as many trees as would cover an area larger than Michigan. So restoring forests in places like Scotland can help provide more space for wildlife and even fight climate change. That’s because trees take in carbon dioxide (二氧化碳), which takes in the sun’s heat and warms our planet. 37．We can know from the passage that the experts are trying to ________. A．buy more lynxes from abroad to keep their populations growing B．ask people to take part in the education program of saving lynxes C．put up more fences to stop deer from eating leaves on the trees D．know about lynxes’ habits to get them used to new environment 38．According to the passage, the experts tell us that ________. A．lynxes play a role in protecting the forests and the planet B．it’s helpful to cut down trees to make room for farming C．putting up more fences can help protect lynxes from dogs D．planting trees has nothing to do with the climate change 39．What’s Paragraph 3 mainly about? A．How we keep the population of wildlife successfully. B．What the disappearance of Eurasian lynxes has led to. C．Why we provide more space for wildlife in the forests. D．When we will bring Eurasian lynxes back to Scotland. 40．What’s the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A．To talk about the food chain of wildlife in the forests. B．To introduce the living habits of the lynxes in Scotland. C．To ask us to take part in the program of raising lynxes. D．To show us a way to protect the forests and the planet. 【答案】37．C 38．A 39．B 40．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了专家希望通过重新引入欧亚猞猁来恢复苏格兰的森林生态平衡，并阐述了猞猁对森林和地球环境的积极影响。 37．细节理解题。根据“Experts trying to restore (恢复) the forests have to put up fences to keep deer from eating leaves of young trees.”可知，试图恢复森林的专家不得不竖起栅栏，防止鹿吃幼树的叶子。故选C。 38．细节理解题。根据“A win for the lynxes is a win for the forest and the planet.”及全文内容可知，猞猁对保护森林和地球环境有重要作用。故选A。 39．主旨大意题。通读本段可知，第三段主要描述猞猁消失后鹿群泛滥导致森林破坏，以及依赖森林的鸟类和啮齿动物减少的连锁反应，B项符合。故选B。 40．主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述了专家希望通过重新引入欧亚猞猁来恢复苏格兰的森林生态平衡，并阐述了猞猁对森林和地球环境的积极影响，所以文章主旨是向我们展示一种保护森林和地球的方法。故选D。 四、单词拼写(本大题共5小题，每小题1分，共5分) 41．I can’t go to work today, because I need to take care of my s mother. 【答案】(s)ick 【解析】句意：我今天不能去上班，因为我要照顾生病的妈妈。根据“I can’t go to work today, because I need to take care of my …mother.”及首字母提示可知，生病的妈妈才需要照顾，应用形容词sick“生病的”修饰名词mother。故填(s)ick。 42．The taste and smell of a c food can often bring back memories. 【答案】(c)ertain 【解析】句意：某种食物的味道和气味往往能唤起人们的回忆。根据“The taste and smell of a ... food can often bring back memories.”及首字母提示可知，此处是指某种食物的味道和气味能唤起回忆，certain“某个，特定的”符合语境，修饰空后名词food，故填(c)ertain。 43．The g encourages people to use public transport to go around because of the air pollution. 【答案】(g)overnment 【解析】句意：由于空气污染，政府鼓励人们使用公共交通工具出行。根据“encourages people to use public transport to go around because of the air pollution.”及首字母提示可知，空处应表达是政府鼓励人们使用公共交通工具，government“政府”，根据encourages可知，空处用单数形式。故填(g)overnment。 44．He can’t even move because of his i . 【答案】(i)llness 【解析】句意：因为他的疾病，他甚至都无法动弹。根据“He can’t even move because of his…”及首字母提示可知，此处是指因为他的疾病，illness意为“疾病”，是名词；because of意为“因为”，后面接名词、代词或动名词， illness符合语境，故填(i)llness。 45．Mary invited me to go to the movies, and I a the invitation happily. 【答案】(a)ccepted 【解析】句意：玛丽邀请我去看电影，我愉快地接受了邀请。由“the invitation happily”和所给首字母可知，此句指我愉快地接受了邀请，此空填“accept”表示“接受”，由“invited”可知，此句时态为一般过去时，动词用过去式。故填(a)ccepted。 五、选词填空 (本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) protect, survive, few, kill, environment, help, save, necessary, action, buy, The leopard (豹) is one of the animals in danger.

One day, Karen walked along a river. She counted the hippos. There were not as many hippos as there had been. It hadn’t rained for a long time. Now there was a bad drought and the river was drying up. The animals that lived near this river had no water or grass. Many of them were dying. People were trying to help other animals. But no one was helping the hippos. The hippos were starving (挨饿). They were coming out of the river to look for food. There was nothing for them to eat. Karen put food in the river. Then, she waited. Hippos are not used to being fed by people. She didn’t know what they would do. The hippos, however, were so hungry that they ate the food. Karen made waterholes, but the river dried up more. So, hippo families had to share one waterhole. Sharing was a problem. The hippo families were not good at sharing. The big bulls began to fight with each other. A hippo was killed in the fight. Karen needed to do something. She wrote letters to people asking for help. Many people sent money to her. Karen had enough money to build a dam (水坝). Now, the hippos had their own space. Karen has watched and taken care of hippos for many years. She knows a lot about them. It is strange, but hippos like licking crocodiles. She has seen hippos pulling prey off crocodiles, too. Sometimes Karen takes people to see the hippos. She tells them that if a hippo charges, they must run fast and climb a tree! Hippos can be very dangerous, but they are important. Their big bodies make tracks (足迹) on land. The tracks help other animals to find the waterholes. Hippos keep the grass short. This helps to make a fire break. Hippos need the rivers. And, the world needs hippos. 56．Why were the hippos starving? 57．What did Karen do to help the hippos at first? 58．How did Karen get the money to build a dam? 59．Why are hippos important for the environment? 60．What should we do to protect the animals? 【答案】56．Because no one was helping the hippos. 57．Karen put food in the river. 58．She wrote letters to people asking for help. Many people sent money to her. 59．Their tracks help other animals to find the waterholes and they help to make a fire break. 60．We can support conservation organizations that work to preserve forests, wetlands, grasslands and other natural habitats. (答案不唯一，合理即可) 【导语】本文主要介绍了非洲由于干旱导致河马和其他动物缺乏食物和水的现状。 56．根据“People were trying to help other animals. But no one was helping the hippos.”可知，因为没有人帮助河马。故填Because no one was helping the hippos. 57．根据“Karen put food in the river.”可知，Karen起初把食物放进河里。故填Karen put food in the river. 58．根据“She wrote letters to people asking for help. Many people sent money to her. Karen had enough money to build a dam (水坝).”可知，她写信给人们寻求帮助。许多人寄钱给她。故填She wrote letters to people asking for help. Many people sent money to her. 59．根据“Their big bodies make tracks (足迹) on land. The tracks help other animals to find the waterholes. Hippos keep the grass short. This helps to make a fire break.”可知，河马巨大的身体在陆地上留下足迹。这些脚印可以帮助其他动物找到水坑。河马让草长得很短。这有助于建立防火通道。故填Their tracks help other animals to find the waterholes and they help to make a fire break. 60．开放性题目，答案合理即可。参考答案为We can support conservation organizations that work to preserve forests, wetlands, grasslands and other natural habitats. 七、短文填空(本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) 阅读下面短文, 在空白处填入一个适当的词, 或填入括号中所给单词的适当形式。 My name is Pingo. I am a two-year-old emperor penguin (帝企鹅). I live 61 Antarctica (南极洲) with all the other emperor penguins. There are no emperor penguins anywhere else in the world. Together with many other penguins, we make up a group. We spend 62 (we) whole lives here and the temperature can drop to-75°F. We have special 63 (way) of keeping warm. Emperor penguins are 64 (large) penguins in the world. In our group, 65 an emperor penguin is 9 months old, he is fully grown (成年的). The tallest in my group is Pablo—4 feet tall. Emperor penguins are heavy too. Pablo is more than 100 pounds. I'm not as tall as Pablo. A funny thing about us is that we are birds with wings (翅膀), 66 we can’t fly. We use our wings 67 (help) us swim faster under water. Most emperor penguins live for 15 to 20 years. Polly, a member of our group, will be 38 this year. She’s 68 (real) old as a penguin.

Many wild animals don’t have enough places to live. People keep taking their living places to make more space for farms and buildings. This will lead to less and less food and space for wildlife. Moreover, wild animals face serious problems in the wild. People hunt wild animals for their fur, bones or other parts of their body. We protect wild animals not only because wild animals are our friends but also because wild animals help keep a balance between humans and nature. If there are no wild animals, there will be no humans. Therefore, we must take action to save wild animals. First, we shouldn’t buy fur coats any more. Second, we can write to the government and give some advice. Last but not least, we should call on everybody to know the importance of wildlife. 【解析】[总体分析] ①题材：本文是一篇材料作文； ②时态：时态以“一般现在时”为主； ③提示：写作要点已给出，考生应根据提示要点进行书面表达，不要遗漏要点。 [写作步骤] 第一步，表明写作意图。介绍野生动物面临的危险； 第二步，具体阐述为什么要保护野生动物； 第三步，介绍保护野生动物的措施，书写结语。 [亮点词汇] ①keep doing 坚持做 ②lead to导致 ③not only…but also…不仅……而且…… ④call on 号召 [高分句型] ①We protect wild animals not only because wild animals are our friends but also because wild animals help keep a balance between humans and nature.（not only…but also…连接的并列句） ②If there are no wild animals, there will be no humans.（if引导的条件状语从句） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司1 / 14 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：______________________ 2025-2026学年八年级上册英语单元测试卷 Unit 5·提升卷 学校:___________班级：___________姓名：___________分数：___________ （时间：90分钟，满分：100分） 一、单项选择 (本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) 1．Mr. Guppy was very large.

However, some health organizations have quickly warned the public that these lovely wild animals can easily spread the plague (鼠疫). Marmots are widely found in Northwest China. Listed as protected animals in China, they always choose cool mountain grasslands, open deserts, and rocky hills as their homes. They are good at diggings helps, Fresh grass, juicy plants, and fruits like apples and bananas fill their diet. Living in family groups, these social creatures work together and communicate often to survive in the hard environment. Marmots may look cute and harmless, but they can be dangerous. They carry the same disease that caused the Black Death. This terrible disease killed over 100 million people in history. It can spread through small cuts (伤口) or even through the air and cause high fever and bleeding (流血). If sick people wait too long to see a doctor, this disease turns into a killer quickly. The National Health Commission (委员会) advises: Keep a safe distance when meeting wild marmots. Never keep them as pets, and never touch or feed them. See a doctor right away if you have a fever after touching them. The recent online sales of marmots have raised alarms. While their round faces might make us want to get close to them, health organizations remind everyone that cuteness isn’t worth risking lives. 29．What has recently caused people’s interest in marmots? A．A video about marmots. B．The cute appearance of marmots in a movie. C．A new study on marmots. D．Government protection rules. 30．What does the National Health Commission advise people to do? A．Buy marmots online as pets. B．Feed marmots fresh grass. C．Avoid touching marmots. D．Take marmots to desert areas. 31．Why does the writer mention the Black Death in Paragraph 3? A．To show the disease was very dangerous in history. B．To show diseases are similar now and before. C．To describe how marmots move to new places. D．To say old medical care was not good enough. 32．What would be the best title for the article? A．Online Shopping Habits in China B．History of the Black Death C．Marmots: Cute Pets or Silent Killers? D．How to Protect Wild Marmots C ①It is on the 27th of October that WWF China celebrates International Panda Day. WWF China encourages the society to understand that we must care for nature and protect other animals as well as the pandas. We’ll welcome the ninth International Panda Day this year. Let’s take the time to learn a few things about these cute animals in the wild! ②Today, there are about 1,800 pandas in the wild. The animals mainly live on bamboo and other plants. Sometimes, they even eat small animals, such as bamboo rats (鼠). In fact, a very long time ago, pandas mainly ate meat. Their diet turned more than two million years ago. Why? Scientists guess there may have been much more bamboo than meat at the time. This change helped pandas to live. ③Wild pandas like to live alone, they show their own area by leaving their scent (气味). Sometimes, male (雄的) pandas do handstands. It is a way of making their scent go higher and farther. This makes them seem bigger and stronger than other pandas. ④In the wild, it is not easy for pandas to have babies. Female (雌的) pandas only have one chance to produce babies each year. If a female gives birth to twins, she will usually abandon the weaker baby before long, it’s because she doesn’t have enough milk to care for both babies. The mother will raise the stronger baby for about two and a half years. The young panda will then leave her and live by itself. 33．WWF China encourages people to _______. A．understand nature B．raise the stronger panda C．learn a few things about bamboo D．protect pandas and other animals 34．What does the underlined word “abandon” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A．lift B．follow C．leave D．accept 35．What can we know from the text? A．Pandas may live on meat long time ago. B．A panda can give birth to many babies one year. C．Living in groups is the best choice for wild pandas. D．Female pandas leave scent to make them seem bigger. 36．How is the text organized (组织)?（①= Paragraph ①,②= Paragraph ②…） A． B． C． D． D The last Eurasian lynxes (猞猁) in the British Isles lived a life of danger as they moved quickly away from the campfire and vicious (凶险的) dogs, and hid in holes. Because of disappearing woodlands, being short of animals for food, and hunting, lynxes started to disappear from these Islands about 1,500 years ago. But experts hope to bring the Eurasian lynxes back to Scotland one day. Wildlife conservationists (保护者) in Switzerland, Germany, France, and other countries have taken Eurasian lynxes from elsewhere in their areas and introduced them again to protected forests, allowing their populations to grow. Now they are hoping to do the same thing in Scotland. Returning the lynxes would do more than just improve the numbers of this once-endangered animal. A win for the lynxes is a win for the forest and the planet. When the Eurasian lynxes disappeared, so did the Scottish landscape. Without these lynxes and other animals hunting them, deer population increased (增加) a lot. Those animals lived on the leaves of trees and bushes for food, and soon large areas of the Scottish forest disappeared since it couldn’t grow fast enough to keep up with the deer’s wish for food. Birds and rodents that depended on shelter (庇护所) in the lower level of forest plants became food for foxes, which lynxes also hunt. Experts trying to restore (恢复) the forests have to put up fences to keep deer from eating leaves of young trees. But with lynxes hanging out in the woods, experts think these lynxes would keep deer from harming the young trees, helping the forests make a comeback. And that would have even bigger influences. The Earth is losing woodlands as people cut down trees to make room for farming, and to sell the wood for products like furniture and toilet paper. Only in a year alone, the Earth lost as many trees as would cover an area larger than Michigan. So restoring forests in places like Scotland can help provide more space for wildlife and even fight climate change. That’s because trees take in carbon dioxide (二氧化碳), which takes in the sun’s heat and warms our planet. 37．We can know from the passage that the experts are trying to ________. A．buy more lynxes from abroad to keep their populations growing B．ask people to take part in the education program of saving lynxes C．put up more fences to stop deer from eating leaves on the trees D．know about lynxes’ habits to get them used to new environment 38．According to the passage, the experts tell us that ________. A．lynxes play a role in protecting the forests and the planet B．it’s helpful to cut down trees to make room for farming C．putting up more fences can help protect lynxes from dogs D．planting trees has nothing to do with the climate change 39．What’s Paragraph 3 mainly about? A．How we keep the population of wildlife successfully. B．What the disappearance of Eurasian lynxes has led to. C．Why we provide more space for wildlife in the forests. D．When we will bring Eurasian lynxes back to Scotland. 40．What’s the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A．To talk about the food chain of wildlife in the forests. B．To introduce the living habits of the lynxes in Scotland. C．To ask us to take part in the program of raising lynxes. D．To show us a way to protect the forests and the planet. 四、单词拼写 (本大题共5小题，每小题1分，共5分) 41．I can’t go to work today, because I need to take care of my s mother. 42．The taste and smell of a c food can often bring back memories. 43．The g encourages people to use public transport to go around because of the air pollution. 44．He can’t even move because of his i . 45．Mary invited me to go to the movies, and I a the invitation happily. 五、选词填空 (本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) protect, survive, few, kill, environment, help, save, necessary, action, buy, The leopard (豹) is one of the animals in danger.

She counted the hippos. There were not as many hippos as there had been. It hadn’t rained for a long time. Now there was a bad drought and the river was drying up. The animals that lived near this river had no water or grass. Many of them were dying. People were trying to help other animals. But no one was helping the hippos. The hippos were starving (挨饿). They were coming out of the river to look for food. There was nothing for them to eat. Karen put food in the river. Then, she waited. Hippos are not used to being fed by people. She didn’t know what they would do. The hippos, however, were so hungry that they ate the food. Karen made waterholes, but the river dried up more. So, hippo families had to share one waterhole. Sharing was a problem. The hippo families were not good at sharing. The big bulls began to fight with each other. A hippo was killed in the fight. Karen needed to do something. She wrote letters to people asking for help. Many people sent money to her. Karen had enough money to build a dam (水坝). Now, the hippos had their own space. Karen has watched and taken care of hippos for many years. She knows a lot about them. It is strange, but hippos like licking crocodiles. She has seen hippos pulling prey off crocodiles, too. Sometimes Karen takes people to see the hippos. She tells them that if a hippo charges, they must run fast and climb a tree! Hippos can be very dangerous, but they are important. Their big bodies make tracks (足迹) on land. The tracks help other animals to find the waterholes. Hippos keep the grass short. This helps to make a fire break. Hippos need the rivers. And, the world needs hippos. 56．Why were the hippos starving? 57．What did Karen do to help the hippos at first? 58．How did Karen get the money to build a dam? 59．Why are hippos important for the environment? 60．What should we do to protect the animals? 七、短文填空 (本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) 阅读下面短文, 在空白处填入一个适当的词, 或填入括号中所给单词的适当形式。 My name is Pingo. I am a two-year-old emperor penguin (帝企鹅). I live 61 Antarctica (南极洲) with all the other emperor penguins. There are no emperor penguins anywhere else in the world. Together with many other penguins, we make up a group. We spend 62 (we) whole lives here and the temperature can drop to-75°F. We have special 63 (way) of keeping warm. Emperor penguins are 64 (large) penguins in the world. In our group, 65 an emperor penguin is 9 months old, he is fully grown (成年的). The tallest in my group is Pablo—4 feet tall. Emperor penguins are heavy too. Pablo is more than 100 pounds. I'm not as tall as Pablo. A funny thing about us is that we are birds with wings (翅膀), 66 we can’t fly. We use our wings 67 (help) us swim faster under water. Most emperor penguins live for 15 to 20 years. Polly, a member of our group, will be 38 this year. She’s 68 (real) old as a penguin. I am getting a little worried about 69 future of emperor penguins. The weather is changing in the Antarctic sea and that could greatly hurt us. Scientists say we could all 70 (die) by the year 2100 if it keeps getting warmer and warmer.
