But it’s also a danger to the world in two ways. First, the making of paper needs lots of trees each year. The world has lost nearly 100 million hectares (公顷) of forests in past twenty years, and it’s going on though at a slower pace than before, a UN agency reported. ★ , 42% went to paper making. And worldwide use of paper will double in the next 40 years. Clearly, the earth cannot sustain (维持) such a high rate of forest loss. The second great problem with paper is what happens once is no longer useful. A lot of waste paper ends up in Dumps and landfills (垃圾填埋场), where it can give off harmful gases. Paper in landfills leads to the release (释放) of methane (甲烷), a gas that leads to global warming. We have a simple way to solve the two problems: paper recycling. Paper is mainly made from cellulose (纤维素) which makes up the cell walls of trees and many other plants. Cellulose can be used repeatedly in paper making. So far, trees are the only thing that can meet the great need for paper making. Therefore, recycling paper is simply one of the best ways to save trees. Thanks to modern technology, recycled paper isn’t the dull-colored thing that many of us are familiar with any more. It now can offer the same print performance as non-recycled paper, Effective (高效的) recycling needs a continuous effort. The way to begin is with education and understanding. Once enough people realize the need for recycling, more effective recycling work can be carried out. The loss of trees affects everybody on earth. Everyone should do that part to recycle paper and encourage government and industries (工业) to do the same. 8. In which pictures can we see the right way to make sure of enough paper for the future? a. b. c. d. A. a, d B. a, c C. b, c D. b, d 9. Paper in landfills is harmful because ________. A. it gives off pleasant gases B. it leads to climate change C. it pollutes the nearby land D. it may cause fire accidents 10. Which of the following can be put in ★ ? A. Though people know the importance B. If we don’t plant trees C. During the years D. Of the trees that were cut down 11. What BIG question does the last paragraph answer? A. What is recycling? B. How can we save trees? C. How can we recycle paper effectively? D. What can the government do to save paper? 【答案】8. A 9. B 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】文章阐述纸张对环境的两大问题：造纸需大量树木致森林减少，废纸进垃圾填埋场释放有害气体。提出解决办法 —— 纸张回收，说明回收纸可重复利用、性能提升，呼吁通过教育让人们意识到回收重要性，鼓励各方参与，保护树木。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。图a是在植树造林；图b是在砍伐树木；图c是垃圾填埋；图d是造纸厂利用回收纸。根据常识可知，a和d均可为保护森林，纸张回收的环节。故选A。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Paper in landfills leads to the release (释放) of methane (甲烷), a gas that leads to global warming.”可知，甲烷致全球变暖，即气候变化。故选B。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“★, 42% went to paper making.”可知，此处说明砍伐树木用于造纸的比例；即此处需表示“在被砍伐的树中”。故选D。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读最后一段可知，最后一段讲有效回收纸张需教育、人们意识，鼓励各方行动，即如何有效回收纸张。故选C。 D The ocean waters rise and fall along the coast. This movement is called the tide (潮汐). When the tide comes in, the ocean rises. The rocks along the coast are covered in water. When the tide goes out, some of the salt water stays behind in large holes in the rocks. This causes tide pools. The animals that live in tide pools, such as crabs (蟹), sea stars, and mussels (蚌), have to get used to changes in the water. They must face large waves, the hot sun, and hungry meat-eating animals. When the tide is high, animals in tide pools are covered with water. This protects them from the strong sun. ________ And it can also wash the meat-eating animals away. When the tide is low, the animals in tide pools have to move to another world. Many of them are no longer covered by water. They are not safe because of the sun’s heat or hungry animals. There is less food for animals such as mussels in the tide pools. Mussels are protected by hard shells (壳). When food passes by, a mussel opens its shell to eat. It closes its shell when danger comes around the corner. Hungry sea stars will hit a mussel, hoping to find a way into its shell. Crabs search for dead plants and animals while keeping away from seagulls (海鸥). In fact, life in a tide pool is also an adventure like humans. 12. Which of the following sentences can be put in the blank “________”? A. The tide can bring in food for the animals. B. They sometimes face hungry meat-eating animals. C. They even have less food to feed on. D. The danger may come around the corner. 13. What may a mussel do when food passes by? A. Find a way to run. B. Keep its shell closed. C. Open its shell to eat. D. Search for dead plants. 14. When a sea star meets the mussels, what may happen next? A. A crab would find a way into mussels’ shells. B. Sea gulls would search for the mussels. C. The sea star would eat the mussels. D. The mussels would open their shells. 15. What can we infer (推断) from the last paragraph? A. Only animals may face adventure in life. B. The animals in tide pools can’t live without water. C. Humans needn’t face an adventure in life. D. Life is always full of adventure. 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章说明了潮汐池的形成、生活在潮汐池中的动物如何适应环境变化，以及它们在不同潮汐状态下的生存策略。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据“When the tide is high, animals in tide pools are covered with water. This protects them from the strong sun…And it can also wash the meat-eating animals away.”可知，此处描述的是涨潮时潮汐对潮汐池中动物的保护作用，包括遮挡阳光和冲走食肉动物。空白处应填入与潮汐带来的好处相关的内容。A选项“潮汐可以为动物带来食物”符合语境，与后文“冲走食肉动物”共同构成潮汐的积极作用。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据“When food passes by, a mussel opens its shell to eat.”可知，当食物经过时，贻贝会打开壳进食。故选C。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Hungry sea stars will hit a mussel, hoping to find a way into its shell.”可知，饥饿的海星会撞击贻贝，试图找到进入其壳的方法，即海星可能会吃掉贻贝。故选C。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据“In fact, life in a tide pool is also an adventure like humans.”可知，潮汐池中的生活对动物来说是一场冒险，可推断出生活总是充满冒险。故选D。 第Ⅱ卷 (非选择题共55分) 三、听力填词 (共5小题，计5分) 请听下面一段短文。根据所听到的内容，写出可以填入下表1~5空格处的适当单词，每空限填一词。(短文读两遍) Join Us to Be a Volunteer Ages of volunteer jobs From 12 years old to 1. ________ years old.

When is the best time to see? Well, it’s easier than you think. All you need to do is to book a plane ticket to Rainbow Mountain in Peru (秘鲁). Rainbow Mountain is a beautiful natural wonder (奇迹). It lies in the Andes in Cusco. Its name suggests the mountain has different colors. But why is it in yellow, green, red, and purple? The reason is the ice that covered the area centuries ago. When it started to melt (融化), the water mixed with the minerals (矿物质) in the ground and turned the earth into many colors. If you plan your trip to the mountain, try to go during warmer months when there is less rain or snow. Rain or snow makes the climbing tougher and the colors will look less beautiful. The best time is from March to November, when there are blue skies and pleasant weather. At the same time, visit it in the morning or evening, either right after sunrise or right before sunset. Very sunny days may make you not take nice photos. To get to Rainbow Mountain, you should first travel to Cusco—a province in the south of Peru. Then you can take a drive to Qesoyuno. From there you can start the journey on foot. It takes about a two-or-three-hour walk to the top. This is really the best way, but it is very challenging. Because the mountain sits at a very high altitude (海拔) about 5,200 meters above sea level. So bring enough water and take your time. 41. How does the writer start the passage? (no more than 8 words) ________________________ 42. What does the underlined word “It” refer to in Paragraph 2? (no more than 5 words) ________________________ 43. Why is walking to the top very challenging? (no more than 17 words) ________________________ 44. 请将文中画线的句子翻译成汉语。 ________________________ 45. 请给短文拟一个适当的英文题目。 ________________________ 【答案】41. By asking questions. 42. Rainbow Mountain. 43. Because the mountain sits at a very high altitude. 44. 如果你计划前往那座山旅行，尽量选择在气候较暖、雨雪较少的月份出行。 45. The Colorful Rainbow Mountain 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了秘鲁彩虹山的形成原因、最佳游览时间以及攀登建议。 【41题详解】 根据“Have you ever dreamed of travelling all the way over the rainbow (彩虹)? When is the best time to see?”可知，作者以提问的方式开篇。故填By asking questions. 【42题详解】 根据“Rainbow Mountain is a beautiful natural wonder (奇迹). It lies in the Andes in Cusco.”可知，彩虹山是一处美丽的自然奇观，它坐落于库斯科的安第斯山脉之中。“It”指代“Rainbow Mountain”。故填Rainbow Mountain. 【43题详解】 根据“This is really the best way, but it is very challenging. Because the mountain sits at a very high altitude...”可知，徒步登顶极具挑战性是因为这座山位于海拔非常高的地方。故填Because the mountain sits at a very high altitude. 【44题详解】 if“如果”；plan“计划”；your trip to the mountain“你的登山之旅”；try to do sth.“尽力做某事”；during“在……期间”；warmer months“更暖的月份”；when引导定语从句，修饰先行词“warmer months”；there is“有”；less rain“更少的雨”；or“或者”；snow“雪”。故填：如果你计划前往那座山旅行，尽量选择在气候较暖、雨雪较少的月份出行。 【45题详解】 通读全文可知，本文围绕彩虹山的色彩、形成及游览展开，“五彩斑斓的彩虹山”适合作为本文标题。故填The Colorful Rainbow Mountain。 八、写作 (共1小题，计15分) 46. 每个学生都喜欢保留一些孩童时代的东西。某校英文公众号开展“我现在依然拥有的儿时最喜欢的东西”征文活动。假如你是李华，请根据以下图表信息写一篇英语短文投稿（题目自拟）。 Your favorite thing from childhood which you still have How long have you had it?

I’ve had it for 10 years since my 5th birthday. It was a gift from my grandmother because she knew I loved soft toys. What makes Brownie special is not just its cute appearance, but the memories it holds. Whenever I felt lonely, it listened to my secrets silently. Its fur is now a bit worn out, but I still keep it on my bed as a symbol of love and comfort. Nowadays, though I’m busy with studies, Brownie reminds me of the simple joys of childhood. It teaches me to cherish the people and moments that truly matter. 【解析】 【详解】[总体分析] ①题材：本文是一篇材料作文； ②时态：时态主要为“一般现在时”和“一般过去时”； ③提示：写作要点已给出，考生应注意不要遗漏信息，可适当发挥。 [写作步骤] 第一步，点明物品（泰迪熊）并交代持有时间（十年）； 第二步，说明来源（奶奶的礼物）和直接原因（喜爱毛绒玩具）； 第三步，深化喜爱理由（情感陪伴、记忆载体）； 第四步，升华主题（珍惜童年与亲情）。 [亮点词汇] ①a symbol of……的象征 ②remind sb. of sth.提醒某人某事 [高分句型] ①It was a gift from my grandmother because she knew I loved soft toys.（because引导的原因状语从句；宾语从句） ②Nowadays, though I’m busy with studies, Brownie reminds me of the simple joys of childhood.（though引导的让步状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024~2025学年度第二学期期末教学质量监测考试 八年级英语试题 注意事项： 1. 本试卷分第Ⅰ卷和第Ⅱ卷两部分，第Ⅰ卷为选择题，45分；第Ⅱ卷为非选择题，55分；共100分。考试时间为120分钟 (含听力20分钟)。共10页。 2. 答题前，考生务必用0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔将本人的姓名、考号写在试卷要求的相应位置。 3. 答第Ⅱ卷时，必须使用0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔书写。若需改动，先划掉原来的答案，然后再写上新的答案。不准使用涂改液、胶带纸、修正带，否则，答案无效。 第Ⅰ卷 (选择题共45分) 一、听力选择 (共15小题，计15分) (一) 请听录音中八组短对话。每组对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中，选出与对话内容相符的图片或能回答所给问题的最佳答案。(每组对话读两遍) 1.

B These days I have been reading an interesting book called Robinson Crusoe. Do you know about it? It was written by Daniel Defoe. Have you heard of him? He was a famous English writer, who was born in London in 1660 and died in 1731. Robinson Crusoe is one of the world’s most popular adventure (冒险) novels. It tells a story about an English sailor (海员), whose name is Robinson Crusoe. He is caught in a heavy storm at sea on his way to Africa. After floating (漂浮) for some time, he arrives at an island where there are no people. In order to survive, Robinson searches for food, builds a small house, makes tools and raises animals with his strong determination (决心) as well as his wisdom. He comes back to the human society after living on the island for about 28 years. The novel shows us the experiences of a brave man and it also introduces us the spirit of never giving up. It is so popular that it has been translated (被翻译) into many foreign languages and is loved by readers from all over the world. 4. What is Paragraph 1 mainly about? A. The price of the book. B. The writer of the book. C. The beginning of the book. D. The experience of the book. 5. What does the underlined word “survive” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. grow B. lose C. live D. cheat 6. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A. Robinson Crusoe is the world’s most popular adventure novel. B. Robinson Crusoe is on the way to Africa when he meets the storm. C. Robinson Crusoe has been translated into many foreign languages. D. Robinson Crusoe uses his determination and wisdom to live on the island. 7. What’s the main idea of the passage? A. It is about the whole life of Robinson Crusoe. B. It is about the spirit of never giving up. C. It tells the story of a famous English writer Daniel Defoe. D. It introduces us an interesting book called Robinson Crusoe. C Paper is one of our oldest, simplest and most important inventions. But it’s also a danger to the world in two ways. First, the making of paper needs lots of trees each year. The world has lost nearly 100 million hectares (公顷) of forests in past twenty years, and it’s going on though at a slower pace than before, a UN agency reported. ★ , 42% went to paper making. And worldwide use of paper will double in the next 40 years. Clearly, the earth cannot sustain (维持) such a high rate of forest loss. The second great problem with paper is what happens once is no longer useful. A lot of waste paper ends up in Dumps and landfills (垃圾填埋场), where it can give off harmful gases. Paper in landfills leads to the release (释放) of methane (甲烷), a gas that leads to global warming. We have a simple way to solve the two problems: paper recycling. Paper is mainly made from cellulose (纤维素) which makes up the cell walls of trees and many other plants. Cellulose can be used repeatedly in paper making. So far, trees are the only thing that can meet the great need for paper making. Therefore, recycling paper is simply one of the best ways to save trees. Thanks to modern technology, recycled paper isn’t the dull-colored thing that many of us are familiar with any more. It now can offer the same print performance as non-recycled paper, Effective (高效的) recycling needs a continuous effort. The way to begin is with education and understanding. Once enough people realize the need for recycling, more effective recycling work can be carried out. The loss of trees affects everybody on earth. Everyone should do that part to recycle paper and encourage government and industries (工业) to do the same. 8. In which pictures can we see the right way to make sure of enough paper for the future? a. b. c. d. A. a, d B. a, c C. b, c D. b, d 9. Paper in landfills is harmful because ________. A. it gives off pleasant gases B. it leads to climate change C. it pollutes the nearby land D. it may cause fire accidents 10. Which of the following can be put in ★ ? A. Though people know the importance B. If we don’t plant trees C. During the years D. Of the trees that were cut down 11. What BIG question does the last paragraph answer? A. What is recycling? B. How can we save trees? C. How can we recycle paper effectively? D. What can the government do to save paper? D The ocean waters rise and fall along the coast. This movement is called the tide (潮汐). When the tide comes in, the ocean rises. The rocks along the coast are covered in water. When the tide goes out, some of the salt water stays behind in large holes in the rocks. This causes tide pools. The animals that live in tide pools, such as crabs (蟹), sea stars, and mussels (蚌), have to get used to changes in the water. They must face large waves, the hot sun, and hungry meat-eating animals. When the tide is high, animals in tide pools are covered with water. This protects them from the strong sun. ________ And it can also wash the meat-eating animals away. When the tide is low, the animals in tide pools have to move to another world. Many of them are no longer covered by water. They are not safe because of the sun’s heat or hungry animals. There is less food for animals such as mussels in the tide pools. Mussels are protected by hard shells (壳). When food passes by, a mussel opens its shell to eat. It closes its shell when danger comes around the corner. Hungry sea stars will hit a mussel, hoping to find a way into its shell. Crabs search for dead plants and animals while keeping away from seagulls (海鸥). In fact, life in a tide pool is also an adventure like humans. 12. Which of the following sentences can be put in the blank “________”? A. The tide can bring in food for the animals. B. They sometimes face hungry meat-eating animals. C. They even have less food to feed on. D. The danger may come around the corner. 13. What may a mussel do when food passes by? A. Find a way to run. B. Keep its shell closed. C. Open its shell to eat. D. Search for dead plants. 14. When a sea star meets the mussels, what may happen next? A. A crab would find a way into mussels’ shells. B. Sea gulls would search for the mussels. C. The sea star would eat the mussels. D. The mussels would open their shells. 15. What can we infer (推断) from the last paragraph? A. Only animals may face adventure in life. B. The animals in tide pools can’t live without water. C. Humans needn’t face an adventure in life. D. Life is always full of adventure. 第Ⅱ卷 (非选择题共55分) 三、听力填词 (共5小题，计5分) 请听下面一段短文。根据所听到的内容，写出可以填入下表1~5空格处的适当单词，每空限填一词。(短文读两遍) Join Us to Be a Volunteer Ages of volunteer jobs From 12 years old to 1. ________ years old.

Well, it’s easier than you think. All you need to do is to book a plane ticket to Rainbow Mountain in Peru (秘鲁). Rainbow Mountain is a beautiful natural wonder (奇迹). It lies in the Andes in Cusco. Its name suggests the mountain has different colors. But why is it in yellow, green, red, and purple? The reason is the ice that covered the area centuries ago. When it started to melt (融化), the water mixed with the minerals (矿物质) in the ground and turned the earth into many colors. If you plan your trip to the mountain, try to go during warmer months when there is less rain or snow. Rain or snow makes the climbing tougher and the colors will look less beautiful. The best time is from March to November, when there are blue skies and pleasant weather. At the same time, visit it in the morning or evening, either right after sunrise or right before sunset. Very sunny days may make you not take nice photos. To get to Rainbow Mountain, you should first travel to Cusco—a province in the south of Peru. Then you can take a drive to Qesoyuno. From there you can start the journey on foot. It takes about a two-or-three-hour walk to the top. This is really the best way, but it is very challenging. Because the mountain sits at a very high altitude (海拔) about 5,200 meters above sea level. So bring enough water and take your time. 41. How does the writer start the passage? (no more than 8 words) ________________________ 42 What does the underlined word “It” refer to in Paragraph 2? (no more than 5 words) ________________________ 43. Why is walking to the top very challenging? (no more than 17 words) ________________________ 44. 请将文中画线的句子翻译成汉语。 ________________________ 45. 请给短文拟一个适当英文题目。 ________________________ 八、写作 (共1小题，计15分) 46. 每个学生都喜欢保留一些孩童时代的东西。某校英文公众号开展“我现在依然拥有的儿时最喜欢的东西”征文活动。假如你是李华，请根据以下图表信息写一篇英语短文投稿（题目自拟）。 Your favorite thing from childhood which you still have How long have you had it?
