Big data can be used for good reasons. Some hospitals use big data to predict if a baby who is born too early will get sick.

China’s Ministry of Education has warned against schools serving precooked meals to students, after parents complained they may be unhealthy and unsafe for children to eat.     Teenagers need to eat food that is good for their bodies while they’re still young so that they will grow up to be healthy adults. So it is necessary for school cafeterias to provide nutritious and healthy food. With this in mind, the government has introduced a new food safety rule that will improve nutrition and health standards in schools. The rule came into force to require the heads of primary and middle schools to eat with students in their cafeterias. Schools will also be required to show the public the information about food sources and suppliers. The rule also suggests that parents should eat with students at school in order to provide advice on food safety and nutrition. Schools must try to find food safety problems and solve them in a timely manner. “If a school is caught buying low-quality food or failing to report food safety incidents, the head of the school will be warned, fired or handed over to law enforcement (执法机关).” the rule says. Parents across China have become angry about food safety incidents in schools, according to the Beijing News. The most recent example happened in March at the Chengdu No. 7 High School Development School. Parents posted videos and photos of moldy food that was served in the schools’ cafeteria, China Daily reported. Finally, the head of the school was fired. In October, the head of an international school in Shanghai was fired after health and education authorities found moldy tomatoes and onions in the school’s kitchen. What do other schools do? Schools in other countries have many ways to ensure food safety. For example, many parents in Australia volunteer in their children’s school cafeterias, according to China National Radio. These parents do their best to see that their children are served nutritious food. 43．Why do teenagers need to eat nutritious and healthy food in Paragraph 2? 44．What is the new food safety rule about? 45．What does the new rule require schools to do? 46．How many ways can people know food safety accidents in the passage? 47．Give at least one piece of advice to your school cafeterias. 八、翻译(共6分) 48．在他哥哥的印刷店工作期间，富兰克林通过大量阅读自学。（while doing） 49．数字生活很便捷，但我们仍需注意其潜在弊端。(aware) 50．我们决定设立“好奇之心”专栏，旨在激发大家去探索新事物。(a section of) 九、书面表达(共26分) 51．Write at least 50 words according to the given situation（根据以下情境写一篇不少于50个词的短文，标点符号不占格） 最近，学校总务处发现用水量激增，尤其是洗手间水龙头没有及时关上或关紧导致水资源浪费严重。学生会(School Council)决定发起节水行动，呼吁全体同学从日常小事做起，共同保护水资源。假设你是学生会成员李华，请用英语写一份倡议书，内容包括： （1）学校用水浪费现象； （2）水资源的珍贵性； （3）提出2条实用建议； （4）号召全校同学加入节水行动。 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 试题 第3页（共6页） 试题 第4页（共6页） 试题 第1页（共6页） 试题 第2页（共6页） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025-2026学年八年级上学期期中模拟卷01 英 语 （考试时间：90分钟 试卷满分：100分） 注意：本卷有九大题，共51小题。试题均采用连续编号，所有答案务必按照规定在答题纸上完成，做在练习卷上不给分。 一、语法选择(共10分) In Wuhan, people 1 flowers have been lining up at the general building of the 719 Research Institute of China Shipbuilding Industry Group to pay their respects to Huang Xuhua.

The computer program looks for different kinds of answers or patterns in the data. Big data can have different kinds of information from many sources, such as information that comes from schools, social media sites, companies and governments. One set of data can have people’s names and addresses. Another set can have what they like, where they go to school, and how much time they spend on the computer. Big data can be used in many ways. The government uses it to understand how many people travel on buses or trains. This information is then used to make bus or train systems better. Some schools use big data to understand which children may need extra help in class. The teacher can then give certain students more help or support so those students can succeed in school. Companies use big data, too. It helps them understand who buys their products. For example, one company uses weather data to see when people eat the most ice cream. Big data can be used for good reasons. Some hospitals use big data to predict if a baby who is born too early will get sick. The hospital can then take extra steps to take care of that baby so he or she does not get sick. Big data can also be used for bad reasons. It can be used to predict which kinds of people are likely to break the law or hurt others, even if they have not done anything wrong. How can big data be used for good and bad thing? It is because the computer programs are written by people. People think in a certain way, and they build a model of those ideas. These ideas are then used to look at the data.

Most of it is locked in glaciers or underground. We rely on this fresh water for many aspects of our daily lives, like cooking, cleaning, and irrigating crops. Water also has a significant impact on the environment. Human civilization 40 the habitats of many plants and animals.

China’s Ministry of Education has warned against schools serving precooked meals to students, after parents complained they may be unhealthy and unsafe for children to eat.     Teenagers need to eat food that is good for their bodies while they’re still young so that they will grow up to be healthy adults. So it is necessary for school cafeterias to provide nutritious and healthy food. With this in mind, the government has introduced a new food safety rule that will improve nutrition and health standards in schools. The rule came into force to require the heads of primary and middle schools to eat with students in their cafeterias. Schools will also be required to show the public the information about food sources and suppliers. The rule also suggests that parents should eat with students at school in order to provide advice on food safety and nutrition. Schools must try to find food safety problems and solve them in a timely manner. “If a school is caught buying low-quality food or failing to report food safety incidents, the head of the school will be warned, fired or handed over to law enforcement (执法机关).” the rule says. Parents across China have become angry about food safety incidents in schools, according to the Beijing News. The most recent example happened in March at the Chengdu No. 7 High School Development School. Parents posted videos and photos of moldy food that was served in the schools’ cafeteria, China Daily reported. Finally, the head of the school was fired. In October, the head of an international school in Shanghai was fired after health and education authorities found moldy tomatoes and onions in the school’s kitchen. What do other schools do? Schools in other countries have many ways to ensure food safety. For example, many parents in Australia volunteer in their children’s school cafeterias, according to China National Radio. These parents do their best to see that their children are served nutritious food. 43．Why do teenagers need to eat nutritious and healthy food in Paragraph 2? 44．What is the new food safety rule about? 45．What does the new rule require schools to do? 46．How many ways can people know food safety accidents in the passage? 47．Give at least one piece of advice to your school cafeterias. 【答案】43．Because they need to grow up to be healthy adults. 44．It’s about improving nutrition and health standards in schools. 45．It requires schools to show the public the information about food sources and suppliers, and solve food safety problems in a timely manner. 46．Three. 47．Ensure the freshness and quality of food ingredients. 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，围绕“学校预制菜”话题展开，指出教育部警告学校不要给学生提供预制菜，因其可能不健康不安全，还介绍了政府出台的新食品安全规则，包括校长陪餐、公开食品信息、家长参与监督及对违规学校的处罚等，并通过国内学校食品安全事件及国外学校保障食品安全的方式，强调学校保障食品安全的重要性。 43．根据“Teenagers need to eat food that is good for their bodies while they’re still young so that they will grow up to be healthy adults.”可知，青少年在年轻时需要吃对身体有益的食物，这样他们才能成长为健康的成年人。故填Because they need to grow up to be healthy adults. 44．根据“With this in mind, the government has introduced a new food safety rule that way will improve nutrition and health standards in schools.”可知，新食品安全规则是关于提高学校营养和健康标准的。故填It’s about improving nutrition and health standards in schools. 45．根据“Schools will also be required to show the public the information about food sources and suppliers.”以及“Schools must try to find food safety problems and solve them in a timely manner.”可知，新规则要求学校向公众展示有关食品来源和供应商的信息，并且必须及时发现并解决食品安全问题。故填It requires schools to show the public the information about food sources and suppliers, and solve food safety problems in a timely manner. 46．根据“Parents across China have become angry about food safety incidents in schools, according to the Beijing News.”、第六段“ Parents posted videos and photos of moldy food that was served in the schools’ cafeteria, China Daily reported.”及最后一段“ For example, many parents in Australia volunteer in their children’s school cafeterias, according to China National Radio.”可知，文中提到人们可以通过《北京新闻》、《中国日报》及中央人民广播电台三种方式了解食品安全事故。故填Three. 47．本题为开放性问题，答案不唯一，可围绕确保食材新鲜优质、加强厨房卫生管理、丰富菜品营养搭配等方面提出建议，言之有理即可。故填Ensure the freshness and quality of food ingredients. 八、翻译(共6分) 48．在他哥哥的印刷店工作期间，富兰克林通过大量阅读自学。（while doing） 【答案】While working in his brother’s print shop, Franklin taught himself by reading a lot. 【详解】在他哥哥的印刷店工作期间：While working in his brother’s print shop，这里用“while + 现在分词”的结构表示“在做某事期间”；自学：teach oneself。主语是富兰克林，用himself；通过大量阅读：by reading a lot 。结合语境可知，此题描述的是过去发生的事情，时态用一般过去时，teach的过去式是taught。故填While working in his brother’s print shop, Franklin taught himself by reading a lot. 49．数字生活很便捷，但我们仍需注意其潜在弊端。(aware) 【答案】Digital life is very convenient, but we still need to be aware of its potential disadvantages. 【详解】digital life“数字生活”，作主语，是不可数名词，谓语用第三人称单数形式；is“是”，作谓语；very convenient“很便捷”，作表语；but“但是”，we“我们”，still“仍然”，need to do sth“需要做某事”，be aware of“注意”，its potential disadvantages“它潜在的弊端”，故填Digital life is very convenient, but we still need to be aware of its potential disadvantages. 50．我们决定设立“好奇之心”专栏，旨在激发大家去探索新事物。(a section of) 【答案】We decided to have/set up a section of “Curiosity” to encourage others to try new things/explore new things. 【详解】中文“我们”表达为We，作主语；“决定”表达为decided，作谓语，使用一般过去时态，因为这是一个已经做出的决定；“设立”表达为have/set up，作谓语的一部分；“‘好奇之心’专栏”表达为a section of “Curiosity”，作宾语；“旨在”表达为to encourage，作目的状语；“大家”表达为others，作宾语；“去探索新事物”表达为to try new things/explore new things，作宾语补足语。整个句子结构为主语+谓语+宾语+目的状语，时态为一般过去时，语态为主动语态。故填We decided to have/set up a section of “Curiosity” to encourage others to try new things/explore new things. 九、书面表达(共26分) 51．Write at least 50 words according to the given situation（根据以下情境写一篇不少于50个词的短文，标点符号不占格） 最近，学校总务处发现用水量激增，尤其是洗手间水龙头没有及时关上或关紧导致水资源浪费严重。学生会(School Council)决定发起节水行动，呼吁全体同学从日常小事做起，共同保护水资源。假设你是学生会成员李华，请用英语写一份倡议书，内容包括： （1）学校用水浪费现象； （2）水资源的珍贵性； （3）提出2条实用建议； （4）号召全校同学加入节水行动。 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文： Dear fellow students, Our school has recently seen a sharp increase in water usage.
