Their children listened and looked back at the tents, and then at Holly, sitting in the tree. They didn’t want to leave. They wanted to help Holly save the tree. But this was their summer holiday. It was the best time of the whole year! When they walked back to the camp, a voice from the tree said: “Listen. Don’t worry. Go on your holidays. You can come back here after that.” “That’s right!” they said happily. “We can come back to the camp after our holidays!” That evening, Grace, Zadie and David were sitting on a branch of the oak tree with Holly.

It is China’s newest high-speed train and also the fastest train in the world. There were 2,959 high-speed trains running across China by 2016. They make up 60 percent of the world’s total high-speed trains. Chinese companies have also built more than 10 high-speed railways in Europe, Southeast Asia and South America. And the high speed trains have become a new name card for China. Besides the high-speed trains, many other innovations (创新) have also changed people’s lives in China. For example, though bike sharing is not new itself, China has made it much more convenient and popular. When the Chinese bike sharing companies reached Singapore and Britain months ago, users there were excited and couldn’t wait to post photos of themselves riding the bikes on social media (媒体). Cashless payment has become a lifestyle choice in China. It is common that people in China go shopping with no cash (现金) in pockets. Many people just pay with their mobile phones by scanning a quick respond code (二维码) from the seller. Even a person selling vegetables has a QR code. Many foreigners have experienced lives without carrying any cash in China. They say they can’t do it when they are back home in Europe. China is now in a great time. It has made great achievements in innovation. They are true pictures of national strength. It seems that China is really leading in some ways.

Nearly 80% of homeowners make a mistake while doing DIY. Here are four of the biggest mistakes that homeowners often make. Taking on Too Much More than 40% of people find DIY projects more difficult and expensive than they thought. By taking on a task that needs more time or skills than you have, you may end up with a big mess and an unfinished project. “It’s important to think about why you want to DIY and what you’re hoping to get out of it,” said Bailey Carson, a home care expert. “If you’re doing it just to save money, you might need to think twice. Without the time, tools, and talent to do it correctly and safely, mistakes may cost you more in the long run than simply paying others to help from the beginning.” ▲ . A third of people used the wrong tool for a DIY project, which can make the job more difficult and less sale. Many tools are designed for special uses and materials, so if you use them for other tasks, you may get hurt. Always use the proper tools for each project, and make sure you know how to use them. Not Safety First DIY mistakes can not only be costly but also dangerous. Of the survey people who once made a big mistake during their DIY projects, 47% said that the mistake led to serious problems, while 44% started a fire or fell off a roof or ladder. Take your time and follow all safety rules when using tools. Wear dust masks, safety glasses, hearing protection or gloves to protect yourself. Skipping Important Steps Skipping (跳过) a key step can end up your whole DIY project—and you might not realize it until much later. In the survey, 47% of people said that they had finished a DIY project before realizing it was done wrong. Read all instructions carefully ahead of time, and make sure you have the necessary skills to complete each step before you begin. 34．According to Paragraph 2, people who are suitable for DIY ________. A．want to save money B．want to save time C．are skillful enough D．are careful enough 35．Which of the following should be put in ▲ ? A．Using the Wrong Tools. B．Using the Special Tools. C．Using the Expensive Tools. D．Using the Proper Tools. 36．Which is true according to the passage? A．“Taking on Too Much” is the biggest mistake during the DIY projects. B．DIY mistakes can be both expensive and dangerous. C．We can skip some difficult steps to make DIY easier. D．Following the instructions, people make no mistakes in DIY. 37．The writer wrote this article to ________. A．tell us DIY is very dangerous B．show DIY can help us save money C．tell us the importance of DIY D．help us keep away from DIY mistakes 【答案】34．C 35．A 36．B 37．D 【导语】本文主要介绍了房主在DIY自己的房子时常犯的四大错误。 34．细节理解题。根据“By taking on a task that needs more time or skills than you have, you may end up with a big mess and an unfinished project. ‘It’s important to think about why you want to DIY and what you’re hoping to get out of it’”可知，DIY需要更多的时间和更多技能，所以有足够多技能的人才适合DIY。故选C。 35．词句猜测题。根据“A third of people used the wrong tool for a DIY project, which can make the job more difficult and less sale.”可知，三分之一的人在DIY项目中使用了错误的工具，这会使工作变得更加困难。所以本段的主题是使用错误的工具。故选A。 36．细节理解题。根据“DIY mistakes can not only be costly but also dangerous.”可知，DIY错误不仅代价高昂，而且危险。故选B。 37．主旨大意题。根据“Here are four of the biggest mistakes that homeowners often make.”可知，本文主要是让DIY房主远离错误的。故选D。 第Ⅱ卷（主观题 共50分） 四、词汇运用（本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分） （A）根据句意和汉语注释，在答题卡对应题号的横线上，写出单词的正确形式。 38．Students in Grade Eight start to learn (物理).

What’s wrong?”可知，说话人正在等待结果，表示此时此刻正在发生的动作用现在进行时(am/is/are doing)，主语是I，助动词用am。故填am waiting。 51．I think AI (change) our daily life in the near future. 【答案】will change 【详解】句意：我认为人工智能将在不久的将来改变我们的日常生活。根据“the future”可知时态用一般将来时，其结构为：will+动词原形。故填will change。 52．All the students (stand) up to say hello as soon as their teacher came into the classroom. 【答案】stood 【详解】句意：老师一走进教室，所有的学生都站起来问好。根据“came”可知用一般过去时，动词要用过去式。故填stood。 53．Remember, it’s easier to lose friends than (make) friends. 【答案】to make 【详解】句意：记住，失去朋友比交朋友更容易。根据“it’s easier to lose friends than...friends.”可知，此处是固定句型“It’s + adj.+ to do sth.”，且将to lose friends和than后的内容进行比较，故than后面也要用不定式。故填to make。 54．Mike, never (stop) working hard if you want to make your dream come true. 【答案】stop 【详解】句意：迈克，如果你想让你的梦想成真，永远不要停止努力工作。“never+动词原形”构成祈使句的否定形式。故填stop。 55．The students in Sunshine Middle School always have fun (take) part in different activities. 【答案】taking 【详解】句意：阳光中学的学生参加各种各样的活动总是很开心。 根据“have fun...(take) part in different activities”可知，此处考查固定表达“have fun (in) doing sth.”，意为“做某事很开心”，空处应填动名词，take的动名词形式为taking。故填taking。 56．Our monitor will hold the welcome party if Miss Zhang (not be) here this evening. 【答案】isn’t 【详解】句意：如果张老师今晚不在这里，我们的班长将举行欢迎会。此句是含有if引导的条件状语从句的复合句，遵循“主将从现”的原则，主句是一般将来时态，所以从句是主系表结构的否定句，结合主语“Miss Zhang”是第三人称单数，所以动词要用单三形式，所以要填“not be”的“isn’t不是’’，为系动词。故填isn’t。 57．Little Tom searched the whole room but (find) nothing unusual, so he went on reading. 【答案】found 【详解】句意：小汤姆搜查了整个房间，但没有发现什么异常，于是他继续看书。根据句中“but”可知，前后时态一致，“but”前“searched”时态为一般过去时，所以该空也应用一般过去时。“find”变为一般过去时“found”。故填found。 六、阅读表达 （本大题共5小题，每小题2分，共10分） 阅读下面短文，用英语回答短文后的问题（每题回答字数不超过10字词） Fine, I’ll just do it all myself! I thought as I stomped (跺脚) away. My friends and I were trying to make the best cardboard town to play in. We had boxes that we were turning into stores and playgrounds and all kinds of other fun things! We weren’t getting along very well, though. I could hear them talking as I was walking away. “Wow, I didn’t think he’d get so angry,” Katie said. “This was supposed to be fun,” said Max. “Johnny can’t do it all by himself. Maybe if we give him some space he’ll want us to help again.” Yeah, right. Since it was my idea, I would just do it without them. The only problem was that I wanted it done before Thanksgiving so that I could show all of my family when they came over. When Thanksgiving was two weeks away, I began to know that it was just too big of a job. I couldn’t make the buildings out of boxes and put them around the town, and decorate them all by myself. It was taking way too long. I guess that’s why people work together. When we each had a job, this was fun and went a lot faster. Maybe I should say sorry to Katie and Max, they were just trying to help and have fun with me. The next day at school I said sorry to Katie and Max. “I don’ t know why I got so angry, building a town was just supposed to be fun. Will you come back to my house today to complete our town?” I asked. “Sure, Johnny,” they said. We all took on a role and the town was done in no time. It was great!      58．How many children are there in the story? 59．Who is telling the story? 60．Why did Johnny get angry at the beginning of the story? 61．What problem did Johnny have in the middle of the story? 62．What is the main idea of the story? 【答案】58．Three. 59．Johnny. 60．He wanted to do it himself. 61．He couldn’t finish in time. 62．It’s important to work together./Friends should help each other. (言之有理即可） 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了约翰尼和朋友们一起搭建纸板箱时发生了冲突，后来又和好的故事，揭示了人多力量大的道理。 58．根据第二段中“‘Wow, I didn’t think he’d get so angry,’ Katie said.”以及第三段中“‘This was supposed to be fun,’ said Max. ‘Johnny can’t do it all by himself. Maybe if we give him some space he’ll want us to help again.’”可知，在这个故事中有三个孩子，分别是Katie、Max和Johnny。故填Three。 59．根据第三段中“‘Johnny can’t do it all by himself. Maybe if we give him some space he’ll want us to help again.’”以及第四段中“Yeah, right. Since it was my idea, I would just do it without them.”可知，Johnny在讲故事。故填Johnny. 60．根据第二段“‘Wow, I didn’t think he’d get so angry,’ Katie said.”以及第四段“Yeah, right. Since it was my idea, I would just do it without them.”可推测出，约翰尼在故事开始时生气的原因是他想自己做这件事。故填He wanted to do it himself. 61．根据第四段中“When Thanksgiving was two weeks away, I began to know that it was just too big of a job. I couldn’t make the buildings out of boxes and put them around the town, and decorate them all by myself.”可知，约翰尼在故事中间遇到的问题是他不能及时完成这项任务。故填He couldn’t finish in time. 62．开放性试题，答案不唯一，言之有理即可。故填It’s important to work together./Friends should help each other. 七、书面表达（本大题共20分） 63．为丰富学生的课外生活，你校开展了各种社团活动。请根据下列提示，用英语写一篇短文介绍你本学期参与的课外活动，并谈谈你的感悟和愿望。 注意： 1. 任选一个社团或自己补充社团名称； 2. 词数：90词左右，开头已经给出，不计入总词数； 3. 文中不提及真实的人名或校名。 To make our school life more colourful, our school offers different kinds of clubs to us. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 To make our school life more colourful, our school offers different kinds of clubs to us. This semester, I joined the Photography Club. I’ve always been interested in capturing beautiful moments and learning how to use a camera properly. In this club, we not only learned about photography techniques but also got to go on field trips to practice our skills. It’s amazing to see how a simple snapshot can tell a story or convey emotions. Being part of this club has taught me to appreciate the beauty around us and to look at things from different perspectives. My wish is to continue improving my photography skills and maybe even hold an exhibition of my work someday. 【详解】[总体分析] ①题材：本文是一篇材料作文； ②时态：“一般过去时”，“一般现在时”和“现在完成时”； ③提示：写作要点已给出，注意不要遗漏信息提示，适当增加细节，并突出写作重点。 [写作步骤] 第一步，介绍自己参加的社团和理由； 第二步，介绍社团活动和自己的感受； 第三步，描述自己的愿望。 [亮点词汇] ①not only ... but also...不仅……而且…… ②from different perspectives从不同角度 [高分句型] ①It’s amazing to see how a simple snapshot can tell a story or convey emotions.(it作形式主语) ②Being part of this club has taught me to appreciate the beauty around us and to look at things from different perspectives.(动名词作主语) 试卷第1页，共3页 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 绝密★启用前 2025-2026学年八年级上学期期中考试（无锡专用） 英语 注意事项： 1.全卷满分100分。考试时间为100分钟。试题包含选择题和非选择题。考生答题全部答在答题卡上, 答在本试卷上无效。 2.请认真核对监考教师在答题卡上所粘贴条形码的姓名、考试证号是否与本人相符合,再将自己的姓名、考试证号用0. 5毫米黑色墨水签字笔填写在答题卡及本试卷上。 3.答选择题必须用2B铅笔将答题卡上对应的答案标号涂黑。如需改动,请用橡皮擦干净后,再选涂其他答案。答非选择题必须用0. 5毫米黑色墨水签字笔写在答题卡的指定位置,在其他位置答题一律无效。 第I卷（客观题 共50分） 一、单项选择 在A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。（本大题共14小题，每小题1分，共14分） 1．The song sung by the famous singer sounds so ___________ and I love it very much． A．well B．sadly C．sweet D．bad 2．Money is important to everyone, but it doesn’t mean ________ to me.

All the friends were very quiet and didn’t talk much. They read or listened to music or slept. Holly’s father fixed the broken window, but he didn’t complain. In fact, he didn’t even look at them. And that made Holly’s friends feel worse. And then they started to get bored. The tents were uncomfortable, the food was boring, their clothes were dirty, and there was nothing to do. And they all thought, “This is my summer holiday. My days of freedom. My chance to have fun.” And they looked around their campsite at the end of Holly’s garden. It wasn’t much fun any more. Then their parents started to come back to the garden. They had quiet conversations with their children near the house. They talked about their summer holidays —their special holidays—holidays at the sea, in nice hotels, in other countries. Their children listened and looked back at the tents, and then at Holly, sitting in the tree. They didn’t want to leave. They wanted to help Holly save the tree. But this was their summer holiday. It was the best time of the whole year! When they walked back to the camp, a voice from the tree said: “Listen. Don’t worry. Go on your holidays. You can come back here after that.” “That’s right!” they said happily. “We can come back to the camp after our holidays!” That evening, Grace, Zadie and David were sitting on a branch of the oak tree with Holly.

C In 2017, when the high speed train—Fuxing, left Beijing for Shanghai at a speed of 350 km/h, it amazed the world. It is China’s newest high-speed train and also the fastest train in the world. There were 2,959 high-speed trains running across China by 2016. They make up 60 percent of the world’s total high-speed trains. Chinese companies have also built more than 10 high-speed railways in Europe, Southeast Asia and South America. And the high speed trains have become a new name card for China. Besides the high-speed trains, many other innovations (创新) have also changed people’s lives in China. For example, though bike sharing is not new itself, China has made it much more convenient and popular. When the Chinese bike sharing companies reached Singapore and Britain months ago, users there were excited and couldn’t wait to post photos of themselves riding the bikes on social media (媒体). Cashless payment has become a lifestyle choice in China. It is common that people in China go shopping with no cash (现金) in pockets. Many people just pay with their mobile phones by scanning a quick respond code (二维码) from the seller. Even a person selling vegetables has a QR code. Many foreigners have experienced lives without carrying any cash in China. They say they can’t do it when they are back home in Europe. China is now in a great time. It has made great achievements in innovation. They are true pictures of national strength. It seems that China is really leading in some ways. And Chinese people have every reason to believe in an even brighter future. 31．How many examples are mentioned to show China’s achievement in innovation in the passage? A．One. B．Two. C．Three. D．Four. 32．The underlined word “it” means ________. A．living in China B．buying things without carrying any cash C．having QR codes D．making enough money by working hard 33．The best title for the passage might be ________. A．China leads in innovation B．Science develops very quickly C．China faces many chances D．Science catches the world’s attention D Do-it-yourself projects let you design your house, providing a way to save money, but even with step-by-step instructions, DIY doesn’t always go as planned. Nearly 80% of homeowners make a mistake while doing DIY. Here are four of the biggest mistakes that homeowners often make. Taking on Too Much More than 40% of people find DIY projects more difficult and expensive than they thought. By taking on a task that needs more time or skills than you have, you may end up with a big mess and an unfinished project. “It’s important to think about why you want to DIY and what you’re hoping to get out of it,” said Bailey Carson, a home care expert. “If you’re doing it just to save money, you might need to think twice. Without the time, tools, and talent to do it correctly and safely, mistakes may cost you more in the long run than simply paying others to help from the beginning.” ▲ . A third of people used the wrong tool for a DIY project, which can make the job more difficult and less sale. Many tools are designed for special uses and materials, so if you use them for other tasks, you may get hurt. Always use the proper tools for each project, and make sure you know how to use them. Not Safety First DIY mistakes can not only be costly but also dangerous. Of the survey people who once made a big mistake during their DIY projects, 47% said that the mistake led to serious problems, while 44% started a fire or fell off a roof or ladder. Take your time and follow all safety rules when using tools. Wear dust masks, safety glasses, hearing protection or gloves to protect yourself. Skipping Important Steps Skipping (跳过) a key step can end up your whole DIY project—and you might not realize it until much later. In the survey, 47% of people said that they had finished a DIY project before realizing it was done wrong. Read all instructions carefully ahead of time, and make sure you have the necessary skills to complete each step before you begin. 34．According to Paragraph 2, people who are suitable for DIY ________. A．want to save money B．want to save time C．are skillful enough D．are careful enough 35．Which of the following should be put in ▲ ? A．Using the Wrong Tools. B．Using the Special Tools. C．Using the Expensive Tools. D．Using the Proper Tools. 36．Which is true according to the passage? A．“Taking on Too Much” is the biggest mistake during the DIY projects. B．DIY mistakes can be both expensive and dangerous. C．We can skip some difficult steps to make DIY easier. D．Following the instructions, people make no mistakes in DIY. 37．The writer wrote this article to ________. A．tell us DIY is very dangerous B．show DIY can help us save money C．tell us the importance of DIY D．help us keep away from DIY mistakes 第Ⅱ卷（主观题 共50分） 四、词汇运用（本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分） （A）根据句意和汉语注释，在答题卡对应题号的横线上，写出单词的正确形式。 38．Students in Grade Eight start to learn (物理).
