It’s not a pretty place. There’s noisy traffic and the nearby buildings are gray and unloved. However, it has a patch (小块地) of beauty—a small garden called Pete’s Patch. Pete is one of the kids who wait here to change buses for nine minutes each day. In the past, it wasn’t a fun or pleasant place. There was nowhere nice to walk and the patch next to the station was littered with trash (垃圾). Pete had no choice because this was the only way. He felt like he was wasting his life away. There was nothing to look at, nothing to keep him busy, and hanging around like that each day drove him mad. He knew he couldn’t do anything to change the bus company’s timetable, but he could make the nine minutes more enjoyable for himself and others. He asked his mom for some trash bags. That week, he filled his nine minutes each day by picking up the trash. On the weekend, he asked his dad to drive down and take the trash bags to the dump (垃圾场). On Monday morning, the patch looked so much cleaner and nicer. Then next week, Pete began to pull weeds (杂草). One of his friends came to help. Soon the patch was looking good, but some dirty words on the walls of the bus station were really making him angry. Pete had an idea. He painted a mural (壁画) to cover the dirty words. When he started to work, more of his school friends joined him each day. Now Pete and his friends are proud of that patch, and they sure aren’t going to let anyone mess it up. They have even planted some fresh flowers. While waiting for their next bus, they walk through the patch and collect trash. One Monday, however, as he rode the bus to school, Pete looked, as usual, toward the patch. To his surprise, there was a sign on it. His friends had painted it. It read: Pete’s Patch. 1．Why wasn’t the area around the bus station a pleasant place? A．Because there were too many people. B．Because the flowers weren’t pretty. C．Because the walls weren’t colorful. D．Because there was a lot of trash. 2．What did Pete do to make the patch look nicer? A．He pulled weeds with his friend. B．He planted flowers with his mom. C．He changed the bus company’s timetable. D．He took a picture of the bus station’s walls. 3．Which words can best describe Pete? A．Hardworking and shy. B．Humorous and smart. C．Helpful and creative. D．Polite and brave. 4．What does the story tell us? A．Time flies but memories last forever. B．Good friends stick together like glue. C．Parents should always help their kids. D．A little action makes the world better. B Su Qingwu, a post-90s girl from Wenzhou, east China’s Zhejiang Province, has built a pavilion (亭子) in her garden by hand. It’s a copy of a pavilion in the Palace Museum. As a photographer, Su often had chances to visit local handicraftsmen (手工艺人) and take photos when they were working. Slowly she became interested in traditional handicrafts and looked for information about them online. “It all began with a photo of a pavilion in the Palace Museum I saw on the Internet. I fell in love with the colors and structure of it. Why don’t I build one at home?” she said. Soon she began to bring the idea to life. Building a pavilion without glue or nails wasn’t that easy for Su. She started to learn the woodworking skills (技能) by reading books and watching videos. She also searched every corner of the town for the things she needed. It seemed easy at first, but it was a different story when she was building the pavilion. She had trouble making a drawing of the pavilion at the beginning. She kept trying and found her own way, but the mortise-and-tenon joint (榫卯连接) was a big headache for her. In order to solve the problem, she visited the Palace Museum in person, found the pavilion in the photo, and studied the mortise-and-tenon joint carefully. Finally, her pavilion was finished. It took Su 150 days to build her first pavilion. Later, she spent 200 days building a Tang-style pavilion. It is bigger and more difficult to build than the first one. She is now planning to create another copy of the pavilion in the Palace Museum in the near future. “I want to pass on the Chinese traditional handicrafts through building more pavilions, so more people can see them one day.” Su said. “I’m sure these traditional handicrafts’ show the confidence (信心) in Chinese culture.” 1．Why did Su build a pavilion at home? A．She liked traditional handicrafts. B．She liked taking photos in pavilions. C．She wanted to help handicraftsmen. D．She wanted to make her garden beautiful. 2．What problems did she meet when building the pavilion? ①She couldn’t put the parts of the pavilion together. ②She didn’t have money to buy the things for building the pavilion. ③She didn’t know where to learn the woodworking skills. ④She didn’t understand how to make a drawing of the pavilion. A．①③ B．①④ C．②④ D．③④ 3．What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A．local handicraftsmen B．copies of the pavilions C．the woodworking skills D．Chinese traditional handicrafts 4．What’s the best title for the passage? A．Speak for a Small Town B．A Young Artist of Photos C．Move the Palace Museum Back Home D．A Confident Director of Videos C 24-25八年级上·江苏宿迁·期末 Zhao Wenrui is a young art teacher from China’s Shanxi Province.

The work has been copied a few times, but the original, which dates back (追溯到) to the 12th century, is seldom showed because it is valuable. Zhao Wenrui’s 32-meter-long chalk version draws around 550 people, including farmers, boatmen, and so on, as well as dozens of animals, buildings, bridges, and the environment itself. However, unlike the real Along the River During the Qingming Festival, this chalk picture will not be saved for a thousand years, as the blackboards will be cleaned as soon as the children come back to school. 1.

It’s not a pretty place. There’s noisy traffic and the nearby buildings are gray and unloved. However, it has a patch (小块地) of beauty—a small garden called Pete’s Patch. Pete is one of the kids who wait here to change buses for nine minutes each day. In the past, it wasn’t a fun or pleasant place. There was nowhere nice to walk and the patch next to the station was littered with trash (垃圾). Pete had no choice because this was the only way. He felt like he was wasting his life away. There was nothing to look at, nothing to keep him busy, and hanging around like that each day drove him mad. He knew he couldn’t do anything to change the bus company’s timetable, but he could make the nine minutes more enjoyable for himself and others. He asked his mom for some trash bags. That week, he filled his nine minutes each day by picking up the trash. On the weekend, he asked his dad to drive down and take the trash bags to the dump (垃圾场). On Monday morning, the patch looked so much cleaner and nicer. Then next week, Pete began to pull weeds (杂草). One of his friends came to help. Soon the patch was looking good, but some dirty words on the walls of the bus station were really making him angry. Pete had an idea. He painted a mural (壁画) to cover the dirty words. When he started to work, more of his school friends joined him each day. Now Pete and his friends are proud of that patch, and they sure aren’t going to let anyone mess it up. They have even planted some fresh flowers. While waiting for their next bus, they walk through the patch and collect trash. One Monday, however, as he rode the bus to school, Pete looked, as usual, toward the patch. To his surprise, there was a sign on it. His friends had painted it. It read: Pete’s Patch. 1．Why wasn’t the area around the bus station a pleasant place? A．Because there were too many people. B．Because the flowers weren’t pretty. C．Because the walls weren’t colorful. D．Because there was a lot of trash. 2．What did Pete do to make the patch look nicer? A．He pulled weeds with his friend. B．He planted flowers with his mom. C．He changed the bus company’s timetable. D．He took a picture of the bus station’s walls. 3．Which words can best describe Pete? A．Hardworking and shy. B．Humorous and smart. C．Helpful and creative. D．Polite and brave. 4．What does the story tell us? A．Time flies but memories last forever. B．Good friends stick together like glue. C．Parents should always help their kids. D．A little action makes the world better. 【答案】1．D 2．A 3．C 4．D 【导语】本文讲述了皮特利用等公交车的九分钟，和朋友一起在等车的地方捡垃圾、拔草和画壁画，把那个脏的地方变成一个漂亮干净的地方。 1．细节理解题。根据“In the past, it wasn’t a fun or pleasant place. There was nowhere nice to walk and the patch next to the station was littered with trash (垃圾).”可知，公交车站周围不是一个令人愉快的地方，因为有很多垃圾，故选D。 2．细节理解题。根据“Then next week, Pete began to pull weeds (杂草). One of his friends came to help. Soon the patch was looking good,”可知，Peter和朋友一起拔草，使那小块地方看起来更漂亮，故选A。 3．推理判断题。根据“That week, he filled his nine minutes each day by picking up the trash.”可知，皮特在那小块地方捡垃圾，让那里看起来很干净，因此他是愿意帮忙的。根据“Pete had an idea. He painted a mural (壁画) to cover the dirty words.”可知，皮特有了一个主意，他画了一幅壁画来掩盖那些脏话，因此他富有创造性。故选C。 4．推理判断题。本文讲述了皮特通过自己的行动让一个脏的地方看起来很漂亮，因此D项“一点点行动让世界更美好”符合，故选D。 B Su Qingwu, a post-90s girl from Wenzhou, east China’s Zhejiang Province, has built a pavilion (亭子) in her garden by hand. It’s a copy of a pavilion in the Palace Museum. As a photographer, Su often had chances to visit local handicraftsmen (手工艺人) and take photos when they were working. Slowly she became interested in traditional handicrafts and looked for information about them online. “It all began with a photo of a pavilion in the Palace Museum I saw on the Internet. I fell in love with the colors and structure of it. Why don’t I build one at home?” she said. Soon she began to bring the idea to life. Building a pavilion without glue or nails wasn’t that easy for Su. She started to learn the woodworking skills (技能) by reading books and watching videos. She also searched every corner of the town for the things she needed. It seemed easy at first, but it was a different story when she was building the pavilion. She had trouble making a drawing of the pavilion at the beginning. She kept trying and found her own way, but the mortise-and-tenon joint (榫卯连接) was a big headache for her. In order to solve the problem, she visited the Palace Museum in person, found the pavilion in the photo, and studied the mortise-and-tenon joint carefully. Finally, her pavilion was finished. It took Su 150 days to build her first pavilion. Later, she spent 200 days building a Tang-style pavilion. It is bigger and more difficult to build than the first one. She is now planning to create another copy of the pavilion in the Palace Museum in the near future. “I want to pass on the Chinese traditional handicrafts through building more pavilions, so more people can see them one day.” Su said. “I’m sure these traditional handicrafts’ show the confidence (信心) in Chinese culture.” 1．Why did Su build a pavilion at home? A．She liked traditional handicrafts. B．She liked taking photos in pavilions. C．She wanted to help handicraftsmen. D．She wanted to make her garden beautiful. 2．What problems did she meet when building the pavilion? ①She couldn’t put the parts of the pavilion together. ②She didn’t have money to buy the things for building the pavilion. ③She didn’t know where to learn the woodworking skills. ④She didn’t understand how to make a drawing of the pavilion. A．①③ B．①④ C．②④ D．③④ 3．What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A．local handicraftsmen B．copies of the pavilions C．the woodworking skills D．Chinese traditional handicrafts 4．What’s the best title for the passage? A．Speak for a Small Town B．A Young Artist of Photos C．Move the Palace Museum Back Home D．A Confident Director of Videos 【答案】1．A 2．B 3．D 4．C 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了来自浙江温州的90后女孩苏清吾，因对传统手工艺的热爱，手工复刻故宫亭子并耗时建造的故事，体现了她对传统技艺的执着追求和传承中国传统文化的决心。 1．推理判断题。根据第二段“Slowly she became interested in traditional handicrafts”和“It all began with a photo of a pavilion in the Palace Museum I saw on the Internet. I fell in love with the colors and structure of it. Why don’t I build one at home?”可知，苏清吾对传统手工艺品产生了兴趣，且看到故宫亭子的照片后想在家建造一个；据此可以推断，她建造亭子的核心原因是对传统手工艺的喜爱。故选A。 2．细节理解题。根据第三段“She had trouble making a drawing of the pavilion at the beginning. She kept trying and found her own way, but the mortise-and-tenon joint was a big headache for her.”可知，苏清吾建造亭子时，一开始她绘制亭子的图时遇到了困难(④)；榫卯连接部分却给她带来了很大的困扰，她难以将部件组装起来 (①)。故选B。 3．词义猜测题。根据最后一段“I want to pass on the Chinese traditional handicrafts through building more pavilions, so more people can see them one day.”可知，她想通过建造更多亭子来传承中国传统手工艺，这样更多人就能看到它们了；据此可以推断，划线单词“them”指代前文提到的“Chinese traditional handicrafts”，因为建造亭子是传承手工艺的方式，最终目的是让人们了解这些手工艺。故选D。 4．最佳标题题。综合全文可知，本文主要讲述了一位90后女孩苏清吾手工复刻故宫的亭子并在家中建造的故事，体现了“将故宫的亭子‘搬’回家”的过程，突出了“文化传承”的核心；选项C“把故宫搬回家”生动概括了“复刻故宫亭子并在家建造”的核心事件，适合作为文章的标题。故选C。 C 24-25八年级上·江苏宿迁·期末 Zhao Wenrui is a young art teacher from China’s Shanxi Province. He recently became famous online for spending three months working on a beautiful chalk picture of a traditional (传统的) work. When Zhao Wenrui, an art teacher in Fanshi County, decided to draw a chalk version (版本) of Along the River During the Qingming Festival, he said that he just wanted to do something interesting for his students. It’s said that he has used eight blackboards side by side and a lot of chalk. The original (原始的) version of Along the River During the Qingming Festival, a five-meter-long picture describing the capital of Northern Song Dynasty during the Qingming Festival, is sometimes called China’s Mona Lisa, and considered by many people as one of the most important artworks in the country’s history. The work has been copied a few times, but the original, which dates back (追溯到) to the 12th century, is seldom showed because it is valuable. Zhao Wenrui’s 32-meter-long chalk version draws around 550 people, including farmers, boatmen, and so on, as well as dozens of animals, buildings, bridges, and the environment itself. However, unlike the real Along the River During the Qingming Festival, this chalk picture will not be saved for a thousand years, as the blackboards will be cleaned as soon as the children come back to school. 1. How long did it take Zhao Wenrui to draw the beautiful chalk picture? A．About 90 days. B．About 100 days. C．About 110 days. D．About 120 days. 2. Why did Zhao Wenrui decide to draw the chalk picture? A．Because his students asked him to do that. B．Because he dreamed to become famous online. C．Because he wanted to show that he was good at drawing. D．Because he hoped to do something interesting for his students. 3. What does the underlined word “valuable” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A．useless and uninteresting B．useful and important C．awful and hopeless D．cheerful and happy 4. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A．Zhao Wenrui’s chalk picture is called China’s Mona Lisa. B．Zhao Wenrui used nine blackboards to draw the chalk picture. C．Along the River During the Qingming Festival was created in the 14th century. D．The chalk version Along the River During the Qingming Festival is longer than the original one. 【答案】 1.A 2.D 3.B 4.D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是山西一名艺术老师耗时三个月，用粉笔在八块黑板上为学生们画的一幅《清明上河图》。 1.细节理解题。根据 “He recently became famous online for spending three months working on a beautiful chalk picture of a traditional work.” 可知，赵文瑞画这幅漂亮的粉笔画花了三个月的时间。故选 A。 2.细节理解题。根据 “When Zhao Wenrui decided to draw it with chalk, he just wanted to bring his students something fun” 可知，赵文瑞决定画粉笔画是因为他希望为他的学生做一些有趣的事情。故选 D。 3.词句猜测题。根据 “The work has been copied a few times, but the original, which dates back (追溯到) to the 12th century, is seldom showed because it is valuable.” 可知，这幅画的原作非常珍贵，很少展出，所以推测这里的 “valuable” 指的是 “有价值的、重要的”。故选 B。 4.推理判断题。根据 “The original (原始的) version of Along the River During the Qingming Festival, a five - meter - long picture describing the capital of Northern Song Dynasty during the Qingming Festival,” 和 “Zhao Wenrui’s 32 - meter - long chalk version draws around 550 people,” 可知，原作《清明上河图》长五米，赵文瑞的粉笔画长 32 米，因此粉笔画比原作更长。故选 D。 三、短文填空 24-25八年级上·江苏宿迁·期中 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 DIY, which means “do-it-yourself”, is quite popular in the UK.
