精品解析：江苏省南京市玄武区2024～2025学年上学期第二次学情调研八年级英语试题

2024~2025学年度第一学期南京市玄武区第二次学情调研 八年级英语试卷 第I卷 选择题（50分） 一、单项填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 从A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 1. _________ 13 years old, the boy went abroad _________ the first time. A. At; at B. On; at C. In; for D. At; for 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：在13岁的时候，这个男孩第一次出国了。 考查介词辨析。at在……，常用于点钟、年龄前；on在……，常用于具体日期前；in在……，常用于年、月、季节或一天的早晨、下午、晚上前；for后常加一段时间。“at+年龄”表示“在……岁时”，是固定搭配，所以第一个空用At；“for the first time”表示“第一次”，是固定短语，所以第二个空用for。选项D符合题意。故选D。 2. Mr. Lee is an animal lover. He does everything he can ________ animals. A. hunt B. to hunt C. to protect D. protecting 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：李先生是一位动物爱好者。他尽其所能来保护动物。 考查动词不定式的用法。hunt打猎，猎杀； protect保护。根据“Mr. Lee is an animal lover.”可知，李先生是一位动物爱好者，所以他应该是尽其所能来保护动物，而不是猎杀动物，故排除A、B选项；又因为“does everything he can”后应接不定式作目的状语，表示“尽其所能去做某事”，故排除D选项。故选C。 3. Wolves only hunt ________ food. And they often hunt ________ a team. A. for; with B. as; for C. for; like D. for; as 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】狼只为觅食而捕猎。而且它们经常以团队形式捕猎。 考查介词辨析。for为了；with用；as作为；like像。根据“Wolves only hunt... food. And they often hunt... a team.”可知，此处是指狼只为觅食而捕猎。而且他们经常以团队形式捕猎。hunt for为固定搭配，意为“搜寻，猎取”，因此第一空填for，hunt as a team意为“以团队形式捕猎”，因此第二空填as。故选D。 4. He like coffee. I see him drink a cup at times. A. must B. may C. can’t D. mustn’t 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：他可能喜欢咖啡。我看见他有时喝一杯。A. must必须；B. may可能；C. can’t不能；D. mustn’t禁止。根据下文I see him drink a cup at times.可知上文是可能喝咖啡。根据题意，故选B。 5. Allan didn’t write carefully. ________, he made lots of mistakes and failed the test. A. It’s a pity B. As a result C. For example D. Otherwise 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：Allan没有认真写。因此，他犯了很多错误，考试没有通过。 考查短语辨析。It’s a pity真遗憾呀；As a result结果，因此；For example例如；Otherwise否则。根据“Allan didn’t write carefully”可知，Allan没有认真写造成了犯了很多错误和考试没有通过的结果。故选B。 6. If we don’t do anything, the number of rare animals will become ________. A. more and more B. fewer and fewer C. bigger and bigger D. smaller and smaller 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：如果我们什么都不做，稀有动物的数量将会变得越来越少。 考查形容词比较级。more and more越来越多；fewer and fewer越来越少；bigger and bigger越来越大；smaller and smaller越来越小。分析句子结构可知，此处修饰的是“the number of rare animals”，即“稀有动物的数量”，数量只能用大小来表示，而不能用多少来表示，故排除B选项；又因为根据语境可知，如果不采取措施，稀有动物的数量将会越来越少，而不是越来越多或越来越大，所以A、C选项不符合语境，可排除。故选D。 7. — I can’t find my mobile phone. — Don’t worry. Maybe you it at home. A. forgot B. missed C. lost D. left 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：——我找不到我的手机了。——不要担心，也许你把它忘在家里了。A. forgot忘记（指事情）； B. missed错过； C. lost丢失； D. left忘记（指东西）；故选D 8. We really need the pianos to practise. Please don’t ________. A. take it away B. take away it C. take them away D. take away them 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：我们真的需要这些钢琴来练习，请不要把它们搬走。 考查代词作宾语的用法。take away为动副短语，意为“拿走，搬走”，当其后接代词作宾语时，代词应放在动词和副词之间，故排除B、D选项；又因为“pianos”为复数形式，应用代词“them”来指代，故排除A选项。故选C。 9. —Did you get any information about this test? —Well, I was trying to, but found . A. nothing B. no one C. some D. none 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：——你得到任何关于这次考试的信息了吗？——哦，我曾试过，但什么也没找到。 考查代词辨析。A. Nothing什么也没有；B. no one没有人；C. some 一些；D. None一个没有，强调数量。find none什么也没有找到，故选D。 10. —________ do you know about camels? —They live in dry places and can live without water for a long time. A. What B. How many C. How much D. How 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：——关于骆驼，你了解什么？——它们生活在干燥的地方，可以在长时间不喝水的情况下生存。 考查特殊疑问句。What什么；How many多少，询问可数名词的数量；How much多少，问不可数名词的数量或程度；How如何。根据“They live in dry places and can live without water for a long time.”可知，是询问了解骆驼的具体信息，问内容，用What提问。故选A。 11. Thank you for ________ let me _________ your school trip. A. agreeing to; join B. agreeing; joining C. to agree; join D. agreeing to; to join 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：谢谢你同意让我参加你的学校旅行。 考查非谓语动词。介词for后接动名词，所以排除选项C；短语agree to do sth.意为“同意做某事”，所以排除选项B；根据短语let sb. do sth.“让某人做某事”可知，第二空应选join。故选A。 12. —I didn’t hear you come in just now. —That’s good. We tried _________ any noise, for you were sleeping. A. not make B. not to make C. to make D. making 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：——我刚才没听见你进来。——那很好。我们尽量不弄出声音来，因为你在睡觉。 考查非谓语动词。短语try (not) to do sth.尽力（不）做某事，to do不定式的否定式是在to前面加not。根据下文“因为你在睡觉”可知“我们尽量不弄出声音来”。故选B。 13. Which of the following suffixes is used to form a noun? A. -less B. -ness C. -ful D. -ly 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：下列哪个后缀用来构成名词？ 考查后缀。-less用来构成形容词的后缀；-ness用来构成名词的后缀；-ful用来构成形容词的后缀；-ly用来构成形容词或者副词的后缀。故选B。 14. —________ do hunters hunt wild animals? —Some are for money and others for fun.

But why? A. How come B. How lucky C. What a pity D. What nice news 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：——桑迪，我恐怕不能来参加你的生日聚会了。——真遗憾！但是为什么呢？ 考查情景交际。How come意为“为什么”；How lucky意为“多么幸运啊”；What a pity意为“真遗憾”；What nice news意为“多好消息啊”。根据“I’m afraid I can’t come to your birthday party”可知，对方不能来参加生日聚会，因此此处应表示遗憾。故选C。 二、完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 阅读短文，从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 In the forest, high up on the steep (陡峭的) shore, and not far from the open sea, stood a very old oak (橡树) tree.

If you give without spending time filling your own needs, then it’s likely you will burn out, or feel upset. When you take without giving anything back, you never feel fulfilled, so you are always searching for ways to fill the empty space in your life. The way to create a healthy balance between giving and receiving is to know and then live by your values. I break values up into two groups which I call “being” values and “having” values. Your “being” values are the personalities of the ideal person you would like to be. People can choose some “being” values that they are willing to make a promise to live by. An example of some “being” values are: kind, loving, generous, peaceful, wise and even powerful. By acting on these values, you give to others through your actions and you inspire others by being a positive role model. Mastering being these personalities becomes your life purpose. Your “having” values are the feelings you need to create in order to be happy. These could be companionship, achievement or support. This is what you receive. You take responsibility for filling your own needs by taking steps to create these feelings and conditions in your life. When you make a promise to live by your “being” values, it becomes easier to make conscious (慎重的) choices. If you usually talk about your problems, you could choose to think and act like a calm person. A calm person might go for a walk, or set a time limit before you react. If you usually worry about something, you could choose to act like a responsible or wise person. A responsible or wise person might have the courage to deal with difficulties they meet. In other words, you would act like the person you choose to be—this is the key to personal power. When you choose to act on your values, you not only feel good about yourself, but you make your chosen beliefs stronger. Over time acting in this way changes how you see the world, and in turn the way other people think of you. 33. According to the passage, living by your “being” values, you would________. A. get a lot of power B. receive support from others C. fill your own needs D. form positive personalities 34. What can we learn from the passage? A. Having values are more important than being values. B. The way other people think of you changes your values. C. You may shake your beliefs when your values are clear to you. D. Acting on your values can help balance what you give and receive. 35. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A. To show the importance of giving. B. To explain what personal values are. C. To tell people how to be truly happy. D. To encourage people to have a life purpose. 【答案】33. D 34. D 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要向我们描述了如果我们要想幸福，就要在奉献和接受之间取得一个平衡。告诉我们如何才能让自己真正幸福。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据“By acting on these values, you give to others through your actions and you inspire others by being a positive role model. Mastering being these personalities becomes your life purpose.”可知，通过践行这些价值观，你通过行动给予他人，并通过成为积极的榜样激励他人。掌握这些个性成为你的人生目标。因此推断，如果某物以“being” value的方式在生活，我们就会更加积极向上。故选D。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据“When you choose to act on your values, you not only feel good about yourself, but you make your chosen beliefs stronger.”当你选择按照自己的价值观行事时，你不仅对自己感觉良好，而且使你所选择的信念更加坚定。结合文章可以推测出，按照你的价值观行事可以帮助平衡你的付出和收获。故选D。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据“You feel happiest when you create a healthy balance between giving and receiving.”可知，本文介绍了如果我们想要幸福，就要在给予和接受之间建立一个健康的平衡。因此作者写这篇文章的主要目的是：告诉人们如何获得真正的幸福。故选C。 C Roberta, Peter and Phyllis lived in a large house in London. Father worked hard in a government office. He was never angry and always ready for a game. Mother was almost at home, ready to play with the children, and help them do their home-lessons.

They had a happy life, but they did not know how happy till the pretty life in the large house was over. Peter had a toy engine and it broke. After dinner, Peter showed Father the engine. Father looked it over and promised to do it on Saturday. At that moment two men came to see Father. Minutes passed. Father’s voice came out from the study, loud and angry. More time passed.

You are brave enough to laugh when you’re feeling like that!” Then they took a train to Three Chimneys. No one knew how long they had been in the train when Mother woke them up.

They’re called “seahorses” because they look a bit like horses. Although they’re fish, seahorses aren’t great swimmers. They often use their tail to hold onto something in the water. There are over 40 different kinds of seahorses. Many kinds of them are in danger. On July 18,2023, Australian scientists released (释放) hundreds of baby White’s seahorses into the wild. White’s seahorses are mainly found near Sydney, Australia. In 2020, these seahorses were named the second most endangered kind of seahorse in the world. That’s partly because of pollution, and partly because many of the areas where they live, like seagrasses and coral reefs, have been lost. To begin the project, scientists collected three pregnant (怀孕的) male seahorses in January. Those seahorses were brought back to the aquarium (水族馆) at the Sydney Institute of Marine Science (SIMS). After the babies were born, the scientists kept them at the aquarium for five months, feeding the baby seahorses tiny shrimp (small shellfish) to help them grow strong. Scientist Mitchell Brennan says, “They don’t have a stomach, so they have to eat continuously (连续地).” About a month before the young seahorses were released, the scientists created eight underwater “hotels” for them, The hotels looked a little like cages, and provided a safe place for the seahorses to develop. Putting the hotels into the sea early allowed the cages to be covered with small sea life that could help provide food for the seahorses. The scientists have released seahorses into the area five times, but this time was a record. Around 380 seahorses were released and about 90% of them survived. The researchers put tiny tags (标签) under the skin of many of the seahorses to help track (追踪) them in the future. The scientists are hoping that the young seahorses will grow and reproduce in large numbers. Brett Fenton, who works for SIMS. says. “It is highly expected that we’ll see the animals do well over the next 12 months.” 39. What do we know about White’s seahorses? A. They are facing dangers. B. They are good swimmers. C. They are found worldwide. D. They disappeared in the wild. 40. What did the scientists do to help the young seahorses survive? A. Place tiny tags under their skin. B. Cover their cages with seagrass. C. Prepare underwater habitats (栖息地) for them. D. Feed tiny shrimp to them monthly. 41. What made this seahorse release special? A The timing of the release. B. The location of the release. C. The number of pregnant seahorses released. D. The survival rate (存活率) of seahorses released. 42. How does Brett Fenton feel in the last paragraph? A. Curious. B. Confident. C. Worried. D. Surprised. 【答案】39. A 40. D 41. D 42. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了一种海洋生物——海马，并介绍了科学家们为拯救这一濒危生物所作出的努力。 【39题详解】 细节理解题。根据“In 2020, these seahorses were named the second most endangered kind of seahorse in the world.”可知，这种海马被评为世界上第二大濒危海马。故选A。 【40题详解】 细节理解题。根据“After the babies were born, the scientists kept them at the aquarium for five months, feeding the baby seahorses tiny shrimp (small shellfish) to help them grow strong.”可知，科学家们为了帮助小海马生存，喂小虾给它们吃。故选D。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据“The scientists have released seahorses into the area five times, but this time was a record. Around 380 seahorses were released and about 90% of them survived.”可知，海马的存活率使这次释放海马的活动变得特殊。故选D。 【42题详解】 推理判断题。根据“It is highly expected that we’ll see the animals do well over the next 12 months.”可推知，Brett Fenton说在接下来的12个月里，非常期待看到这些动物们表现良好，故可推知，他是自信的。故选B。 E Because of the pandemic (疫情), many people look for fun online. Watching livestreaming (直播的) shows has become part of their lives. At the same time, traditional culture has found a bigger stage online. Many traditional artists are starting to livestream on Douyin and Bilibili. Some of them sing Beijing Opera, some show their folk handicrafts, while others perform Chinese classical music. A growing number of young people are starting to become more interested in traditional culture because of livestreaming. Li Jun is a Beijing Opera performer in Shanghai Jingju Theater Company. After the outbreak, the 59-year-old man took up his smart phone and started livestreaming. Unlike performing on a formal stage, Li uses ordinary places as his stage, including his backyard and study room. Apart from singing, Li also teaches viewers about Beijing Opera. People can ask him questions and get answers directly. “Livestreaming has brought this elegant (高雅的) art down to earth,” one viewer said. “It gives young people an easier aceess to this traditional art and lets them learn more about it.” Li has more than 6000 fans on Douyin, while one of his videos got 42,000 views on Bilibili. On March 26th, 2020, Bilibili livestreamed a Huafu show on the third China Huafu Day. Performers presented clothes in traditional Chinese styles, including those from Wei, Tang and Ming dynasties. During the show, viewers not only enjoyed looking at the clothes, but also watched how performers used ancient styles of make-up. As Guangming Daily noted, livestreaming has come to a new stage through which traditional culture can be kept alive. 43. Why did the writer mention Li Jun in the second paragraph? A. To ask young people to learn from Li Jun. B. To tell young people to learn Beijing Opera. C. To ask young people to enjoy Li Jun’s livestreaming. D. To give an example of traditional culture livestreaming. 44. What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A. Art B. Earth C. Livestreaming D. Culture 45. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. Performers presented Chinese classical music in the Huafu show. B. Beijing Opera performer Li Jun has more than 42,000 fans on Douyin. C.

But does this crazy actually make sense? Is there any scientific explanation for it? Well, you should probably ask James Kilner, a neuroscientist(神经科学家) at University College London. Through our lifetime we become experts at reading and telling other people’s faces and facial expressions. However, according to Kilner, we have a very poor understanding of our own faces since we have little experience of looking at them—we just feel them most of the time. This has been proved in some studies in which people were shown photos of themselves and asked to match their facial expressions in the pictures. In most cases, they failed to correctly produce the same facial expressions without being able to see themselves in the mirror, according to BBC. To further test how we actually sense our own faces, Kilner carried out another study. He showed people two kinds of their own pictures—one had been edited(编辑) to look less beautiful and the one was made more beautiful—and asked them to pick the version which they thought looked most like them. Kilner found that most people chose the more beautiful picture. This suggests that we usually think of ourselves as better-looking than we actually are. But what does it say about selfies? Well, isn’t that clear? Selfies give us the power to create a photo—by taking it from different angles(角度), with different poses, using filters(滤镜) and so on—that better matches our expectations with our actual faces. “You suddenly have control in a way that you don’t have in the real world.” Kilner told the Canada-based CTA News. “Selfies allow you to keep taking pictures until you manage to take one you’re happy with”, he explained. 47. How does the writer lead in the topic “selfie” in Paragraph 1? A. By asking questions. B. By comparing facts. C. By giving examples. D. By explaining reasons. 48. We can learn from Paragraph 2 and Paragraph 3 that people are ________. A. proud of the photos of their own B. able to remember their own faces easily C. more interested in their faces in the mirror D. good at understanding others by their faces 49. According to Kilner, taking selfies ________. A. helps people to improve their skills of taking photos B. meets people’s needs to know their own faces better C. makes people possible to reach their expectation D. offers people a way to control the world 50. Which might be the best title of the passage? A. What Is the Selfies B. Why Do You Take Selfies C. How Can We Take Selfies D. Who Likes Taking Selfies 【答案】47. A 48. D 49. C 50. B 【解析】 【导语】本文通过设问引出“自拍”的话题，并论述人们为什么要“自拍”。 【47题详解】 篇章结构题。根据“But does this crazy actually make sense? Is there any scientific explanation for it?”可知，作者在第一段通过设问的方式引出“自拍”的话题。故选A。 【48题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Through our lifetime we become experts at reading and telling other people’s faces and facial expressions.”可知，在人们的一生中，人们成了观察和辨别他人面部表情的专家。也就是说，人们善于通过面部来理解他人。故选D。 【49题详解】 推理判断题。根据“ Selfies give us the power to create a photo—by taking it from different angles(角度), with different poses, using filters(滤镜) and so on—that better matches our expectations with our actual faces.”可知，“自拍”可以让人们从不同的角度、以不同的姿势，并采用滤镜等工具获得有可能达到他们期望的照片。故选C。 【50题详解】 最佳标题。通读全文并根据“But what does it say about selfies...”及“Selfies allow you to keep taking pictures until you manage to take one you’re happy with...”可知，文章主要论述人们为什么要“自拍”。所以，文章的最佳标题为“你为什么‘自拍’”。故选B。 第II卷 非选择题（50分） 四、填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） （A）根据括号中所给出的汉语提示写出恰当单词，使句子意思完整正确。 51. The ________ (菜) your mother cooks taste really delicious. 【答案】dishes 【解析】 【详解】句意：你妈妈做的菜尝起来真的很美味。根据“taste”可知，此处需要用名词复数作主语，dish表示“菜，菜肴”时是可数名词，复数形式是dishes。故填dishes。 52. The poor polar bear _________ (死) of hunger in the snow in the end. 【答案】died 【解析】 【详解】句意：这只可怜的北极熊最终在雪地里饿死了。die of“死于……”，根据“in the end”可知动作发生在过去，需用一般过去时，die的过去式是died。故填died。 53. Reading more books _________ (意味着) having a brighter future. 【答案】means 【解析】 【详解】句意：多读书意味着有一个更光明的未来。mean“意味着”，此处主语Reading more books是动名词短语，作主语时谓语动词用第三人称单数形式，mean的第三人称单数是means。故填means。 54. Thanks for _________ (同意) to let me join your school trip. 【答案】agreeing 【解析】 【详解】句意：感谢你同意让我参加你们的学校旅行。agree“同意”，for是介词，后跟动名词。故填agreeing。 55.

We must hurry up, since there is little time ________ (leave). 【答案】left 【解析】 【详解】句意：我们必须快点，因为剩下的时间不多了。分析句子结构可知，此处应用非谓语动词作后置定语，修饰名词time；leave“留下，剩下”，动词，time与leave之间是被动关系，即“时间被剩下”，所以此处应用leave的过去分词left作后置定语。故填left。 57. Kitty chose ________ (not travel) during the National Day holiday. 【答案】not to travel 【解析】 【详解】句意：基蒂选择在国庆节假期不去旅行。choose to do sth.为固定搭配，意为“选择做某事”，其否定形式为“choose not to do sth.”，表示“选择不做某事”，故填not to travel。 58. If you watch the show, you ________ (know) more about red-crowned cranes. 【答案】will know 【解析】 【详解】句意：如果你看这个节目，你会更多地了解丹顶鹤。if 引导的真实性条件状语从句，从句用一般现在时，主句需用一般将来时，“will + 动词原形”构成一般将来时，know在句中作谓语。故填will know。 59. We should act at once ________ (protect) rare animals and plants. 【答案】to protect 【解析】 【详解】句意：我们应该立刻采取行动来保护稀有的动物和植物。根据“act at once”可知，立刻行动的目的是为了保护稀有的动物和植物，所以使用动词不定式to do来表示。故填to protect。 60. He treats everyone with ________ (kind), so he has lots of friends. 【答案】kindness 【解析】 【详解】句意：他以善良对待每个人，因此他有很多朋友。根据“treats everyone with”可知，此处需要用名词形式。kind的名词形式为kindness，表示“善良”。故填kindness。 （C）阅读下面短文，从短文后的A、B、C、D、E、F和G七个选项中，选出五个可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Stella magazine asked YouGov, a research center to interview over 1, 000 women in Britain about everything, from their eating habits to their relationships and family values, to find out what they really think. ___61___ Eighty percent of women say that losing their health is their greatest concern followed by putting on weight(52%) and losing their jobs(24%). ___62___Twenty-three percent of women are on a diet now and fifty-eight percent have gone on a diet in the past.

Many different types of dogs can be trained to do this work, but the best known ones are German shepherds and bloodhounds. In Britain, police dogs usually have a 13-week training course and many dogs fail. Not all dogs make good police dogs. They must be completely reliable and obedient. Most police dogs live with their handlers as part of the family, but they are not pets. They are working dogs and they have a job to do. Police dogs are trained to chase and hold people who are trying to get away from the police. Police dogs are not vicious animals. They are trained to hold on to people until their handler tells them to let go. Police dogs often go into dangerous places and they are given special vests to protect them from knife and gun attacks. Dogs are not only trained to chase and catch criminals. They are also used for following suspects or finding missing people. This is because some dogs, such as bloodhounds, have a very good sense of smell and can be trained to recognize certain types of smells. Some dogs are used to find survivors after earthquakes or explosions and some are specially trained to find dead bodies. In many countries dogs are used in airports to check luggage for drugs and bombs. Labradors, spaniels and beagles are used for this because they are friendly dogs and people are not afraid of them. 回答下面 5个问题，每题答案不超过6个词。 66.

Luckily, there were no casualties (伤亡). Wildfires can be very dangerous as they can spread quickly. How often do wildfires appear?

If you give without spending time filling your own needs, then it’s likely you will burn out, or feel upset. When you take without giving anything back, you never feel fulfilled, so you are always searching for ways to fill the empty space in your life. The way to create a healthy balance between giving and receiving is to know and then live by your values. I break values up into two groups which I call “being” values and “having” values. Your “being” values are the personalities of the ideal person you would like to be. People can choose some “being” values that they are willing to make a promise to live by. An example of some “being” values are: kind, loving, generous, peaceful, wise and even powerful. By acting on these values, you give to others through your actions and you inspire others by being a positive role model. Mastering being these personalities becomes your life purpose. Your “having” values are the feelings you need to create in order to be happy. These could be companionship, achievement or support. This is what you receive. You take responsibility for filling your own needs by taking steps to create these feelings and conditions in your life. When you make a promise to live by your “being” values, it becomes easier to make conscious (慎重的) choices. If you usually talk about your problems, you could choose to think and act like a calm person. A calm person might go for a walk, or set a time limit before you react. If you usually worry about something, you could choose to act like a responsible or wise person. A responsible or wise person might have the courage to deal with difficulties they meet. In other words, you would act like the person you choose to be—this is the key to personal power. When you choose to act on your values, you not only feel good about yourself, but you make your chosen beliefs stronger. Over time acting in this way changes how you see the world, and in turn the way other people think of you. 33. According to the passage living by your “being” values, you would________. A. get a lot of power B. receive support from others C. fill your own needs D. form positive personalities 34. What can we learn from the passage? A. Having values are more important than being values. B. The way other people think of you changes your values. C. You may shake your beliefs when your values are clear to you. D. Acting on your values can help balance what you give and receive. 35. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A. To show the importance of giving. B. To explain what personal values are. C. To tell people how to be truly happy. D. To encourage people to have a life purpose. C Roberta, Peter and Phyllis lived in a large house in London. Father worked hard in a government office. He was never angry and always ready for a game. Mother was almost at home, ready to play with the children, and help them do their home-lessons. These three lucky children always had everything they needed: pretty clothes, good fires, a lovely playroom and a dog called James. They had a happy life, but they did not know how happy till the pretty life in the large house was over. Peter had a toy engine and it broke. After dinner, Peter showed Father the engine. Father looked it over and promised to do it on Saturday. At that moment two men came to see Father. Minutes passed. Father’s voice came out from the study, loud and angry. More time passed. Then Mother came in and said, “Father’s been called away-on business.” A week after their father went away, their mother said, “Now, we’re going to move to the country. A pretty little white house, called Three Chimneys.” The family started packing: clothes, plates, candles and also tables and chairs. “We seem to be taking all the ugly things,” said Roberta. “We’re taking the useful ones,” said Mother. “We’ve got to play at being poor for a bit.” Peter said joyously, “I do like moving! I wish we moved once a month.” Mother laughed and said, “I don’t like moving!” As she turned away, Roberta saw her face. She never forgot it. “Oh, Mother,” she whispered, “how I love you! You are brave enough to laugh when you’re feeling like that!” Then they took a train to Three Chimneys. No one knew how long they had been in the train when Mother woke them up. They stood in the cold night air on the dark platform. At that moment they didn’t know how important the station and the trains would become to them. They didn’t know they were going to be the railway children. —Taken from The Railway Children 36. Which of the following questions is answered in this passage? A. How did Peter’s toy engine break? B.

Although they’re fish, seahorses aren’t great swimmers. They often use their tail to hold onto something in the water. There are over 40 different kinds of seahorses. Many kinds of them are in danger. On July 18,2023, Australian scientists released (释放) hundreds of baby White’s seahorses into the wild. White’s seahorses are mainly found near Sydney, Australia. In 2020, these seahorses were named the second most endangered kind of seahorse in the world. That’s partly because of pollution, and partly because many of the areas where they live, like seagrasses and coral reefs, have been lost. To begin the project, scientists collected three pregnant (怀孕的) male seahorses in January. Those seahorses were brought back to the aquarium (水族馆) at the Sydney Institute of Marine Science (SIMS). After the babies were born, the scientists kept them at the aquarium for five months, feeding the baby seahorses tiny shrimp (small shellfish) to help them grow strong. Scientist Mitchell Brennan says, “They don’t have a stomach, so they have to eat continuously (连续地).” About a month before the young seahorses were released, the scientists created eight underwater “hotels” for them, The hotels looked a little like cages, and provided a safe place for the seahorses to develop. Putting the hotels into the sea early allowed the cages to be covered with small sea life that could help provide food for the seahorses. The scientists have released seahorses into the area five times, but this time was a record. Around 380 seahorses were released and about 90% of them survived. The researchers put tiny tags (标签) under the skin of many of the seahorses to help track (追踪) them in the future. The scientists are hoping that the young seahorses will grow and reproduce in large numbers. Brett Fenton, who works for SIMS. says. “It is highly expected that we’ll see the animals do well over the next 12 months.” 39. What do we know about White’s seahorses? A. They are facing dangers. B. They are good swimmers. C. They are found worldwide. D. They disappeared in the wild. 40. What did the scientists do to help the young seahorses survive? A. Place tiny tags under their skin. B. Cover their cages with seagrass. C. Prepare underwater habitats (栖息地) for them. D. Feed tiny shrimp to them monthly. 41. What made this seahorse release special? A. The timing of the release. B. The location of the release. C. The number of pregnant seahorses released. D. The survival rate (存活率) of seahorses released. 42. How does Brett Fenton feel in the last paragraph? A. Curious. B. Confident. C. Worried. D. Surprised. E Because of the pandemic (疫情), many people look for fun online. Watching livestreaming (直播的) shows has become part of their lives. At the same time, traditional culture has found a bigger stage online. Many traditional artists are starting to livestream on Douyin and Bilibili. Some of them sing Beijing Opera, some show their folk handicrafts, while others perform Chinese classical music. A growing number of young people are starting to become more interested in traditional culture because of livestreaming. Li Jun is a Beijing Opera performer in Shanghai Jingju Theater Company. After the outbreak, the 59-year-old man took up his smart phone and started livestreaming. Unlike performing on a formal stage, Li uses ordinary places as his stage, including his backyard and study room. Apart from singing, Li also teaches viewers about Beijing Opera. People can ask him questions and get answers directly. “Livestreaming has brought this elegant (高雅的) art down to earth,” one viewer said. “It gives young people an easier aceess to this traditional art and lets them learn more about it.” Li has more than 6000 fans on Douyin, while one of his videos got 42,000 views on Bilibili. On March 26th, 2020, Bilibili livestreamed a Huafu show on the third China Huafu Day. Performers presented clothes in traditional Chinese styles, including those from Wei, Tang and Ming dynasties. During the show, viewers not only enjoyed looking at the clothes, but also watched how performers used ancient styles of make-up. As Guangming Daily noted, livestreaming has come to a new stage through which traditional culture can be kept alive. 43. Why did the writer mention Li Jun in the second paragraph? A. To ask young people to learn from Li Jun. B. To tell young people to learn Beijing Opera. C. To ask young people to enjoy Li Jun’s livestreaming. D. To give an example of traditional culture livestreaming. 44. What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A. Art B. Earth C. Livestreaming D. Culture 45.

More people have interest in traditional culture with the help of livestreaming. D. Many traditional artists are starting to sell folk handicrafts on Douyin and Bilibili. 46. Which picture shows the structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. F We take selfies(自拍) when we try on a new hat, play with our pets or when we meet a friend whom we haven’t seen in a while. But does this crazy actually make sense? Is there any scientific explanation for it? Well, you should probably ask James Kilner, a neuroscientist(神经科学家) at University College London. Through our lifetime we become experts at reading and telling other people’s faces and facial expressions. However, according to Kilner, we have a very poor understanding of our own faces since we have little experience of looking at them—we just feel them most of the time. This has been proved in some studies in which people were shown photos of themselves and asked to match their facial expressions in the pictures. In most cases, they failed to correctly produce the same facial expressions without being able to see themselves in the mirror, according to BBC. To further test how we actually sense our own faces, Kilner carried out another study. He showed people two kinds of their own pictures—one had been edited(编辑) to look less beautiful and the one was made more beautiful—and asked them to pick the version which they thought looked most like them. Kilner found that most people chose the more beautiful picture. This suggests that we usually think of ourselves as better-looking than we actually are. But what does it say about selfies? Well, isn’t that clear? Selfies give us the power to create a photo—by taking it from different angles(角度), with different poses, using filters(滤镜) and so on—that better matches our expectations with our actual faces. “You suddenly have control in a way that you don’t have in the real world.” Kilner told the Canada-based CTA News. “Selfies allow you to keep taking pictures until you manage to take one you’re happy with”, he explained. 47. How does the writer lead in the topic “selfie” in Paragraph 1? A. By asking questions. B. By comparing facts. C. By giving examples. D. By explaining reasons. 48. We can learn from Paragraph 2 and Paragraph 3 that people are ________. A. proud of the photos of their own B. able to remember their own faces easily C. more interested in their faces in the mirror D. good at understanding others by their faces 49. According to Kilner, taking selfies ________. A. helps people to improve their skills of taking photos B. meets people’s needs to know their own faces better C. makes people possible to reach their expectation D. offers people a way to control the world 50. Which might be the best title of the passage? A. What Is the Selfies B. Why Do You Take Selfies C. How Can We Take Selfies D.

Many different types of dogs can be trained to do this work, but the best known ones are German shepherds and bloodhounds. In Britain, police dogs usually have a 13-week training course and many dogs fail. Not all dogs make good police dogs. They must be completely reliable and obedient. Most police dogs live with their handlers as part of the family, but they are not pets. They are working dogs and they have a job to do. Police dogs are trained to chase and hold people who are trying to get away from the police. Police dogs are not vicious animals. They are trained to hold on to people until their handler tells them to let go. Police dogs often go into dangerous places and they are given special vests to protect them from knife and gun attacks. Dogs are not only trained to chase and catch criminals. They are also used for following suspects or finding missing people. This is because some dogs, such as bloodhounds, have a very good sense of smell and can be trained to recognize certain types of smells. Some dogs are used to find survivors after earthquakes or explosions and some are specially trained to find dead bodies. In many countries dogs are used in airports to check luggage for drugs and bombs. Labradors, spaniels and beagles are used for this because they are friendly dogs and people are not afraid of them. 回答下面 5个问题，每题答案不超过6个词。 66.
