But according to a new study, this will only make you feel more bored. A team at the University of Toronto Scarborough in Canada did an experiment (实验) on this with 159 people. First, they asked people to watch a 10-minute YouTube video. People had to watch it right to the end. After that, they could choose from seven short videos. Each video was five minutes long, and they had 10 minutes to watch them. They were free to skip (跳过) through the videos or switch (切换) between them. The scientists asked people how they felt during the experiment. They all enjoyed the first part more than the second. Why is this? Boredom has something to do with attention (注意力). The more we dive (沉浸) into a video, the less bored we will feel.

Do you know what an important role it plays in the whole world? Did you visit any famous places along the road? Although it’s called the Silk Road, people bought and sold much more than silk. The Silk Road went through Asia, the Middle East, North Africa and Europe. It was 6,500 km from Xi’an to Rome. My dad is very interested in the Silk Road and he has told me many things about it. Last summer, my family got away for a holiday and went to some places on the road. We started at Lanzhou and went on to Wuwei. Wuwei was a very important city on the Silk Road. It connected (连接) three main cities in the area. In ancient times, it was also a capital. Although it’s now a modern city, you can get a feeling of history when you visit it. We saw lots of very old stone monuments and people there were very proud of their city’s long history. The next stop was Jiayuguan. It’s on the edge (边缘) of the desert, and was also an important place on the Silk Road. It was a busy city with a lot of people coming and going. Even today, it’s a city that many business people travel through. An important part of the Great Wall was also built here. After that, we went on to Yumenguan. I first found out about Yumenguan in the famous poem written by Wang Zhihuan. It was in the Gobi Desert and was the only connection between Central Asia and China. I wonder how people ever made it through the hot desert so long ago. This trip wasn’t just a scenic (观光的) journey. It helped me understand the history of the area and see how people from different places influenced (影响) each other in many ways. 27．Why does the writer use questions in Paragraph 1?

Nowadays, he would like to spend his h 51 and weekends making his house look more beautiful. Like hundreds of thousands of other British people, he has found the j 52 of DIY home repairs. This means that if anything needs fixing around the house, he will try to do the job h 53 . Leo showed me his new kitchen that he put together himself , and his newly-painted walls. I asked him w 54 he got the idea to do these things. He told me that it came from a DIY program on TV. This got me to think about how p 55 DIY programs are in the UK. Each channel (频道) has at least one home or garden makeover (装饰，翻新) show. Some channels are e 56 completely talking about the subject. I don’t think it’s really s 57 that DIY programs are so welcomed by people. There are two common British sayings—“an Englishman’s home is castle” and “there’s no place like home”—which show how i 58 their houses are to them. W 59 the economic (经济) changes of the last several years, many people don’t have enough money to buy bigger houses than before. So they are looking at how they can make their houses b 60 without spending a lot of money. DIY, obviously, is the perfect choice. 五、读写综合 （一）阅读并回答问题。（共5小题，每小题2分，计10分） 阅读下面短文，根据短文内容回答问题，每题答案不超过6个词。 If you think you are too shy and want to be a little braver, just try the following things:   Be open to others. Tell people you are shy. There is no need to hide it. When they get to know you are a shy kid, they will understand you better. This also helps you feel more comfortable in talks. Try to smile more. When you smile, people think you are friendly and easy to talk with. Remember that other people have feelings, too. Most people will stay away from an angry-looking face. Learn to be a good talker. If you find it hard to start a talk, say something nice about people around you. Think about how great you feel when someone says something nice to you. Doesn’t it make you want to keep talking to that person? Get your attention elsewhere. Think more about ways to enjoy parties or games. Don’t waste time worrying about your look or whether people like you or not. You will find it’s not so hard to talk with others. Take one small step at a time. Each time when you say “Hi” or smile at someone, say to yourself “You can make it.” Keep trying and one day, you’ll never feel shy when you talk to others. 61．What will happen when people get to know you are a shy kid? 62．When do people think that you are friendly and easy to talk with? 63．How will you feel if someone says something nice to you?   64．How many suggestions (建议) does the writer offer in the passage?   65．What is the main idea of this passage?   （二）书面表达。（共1小题，计20分） 66．假如Andy是一位来自美国的交换生，目前就读于你所在的中学，通过两个月的接触，你们成了好朋友，请你根据下面的提示，以A Friend From the USA 为题介绍一下他。开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 外貌特征 …… 性格品质 …… 兴趣爱好 痴迷于 DIY…… 喜欢旅游…… 生活体验 认为中国的学校与美国相当不同， 在这儿上课较多而休假较少； 未来打算 …… 注意：1. 语法正确，意思连贯，书写规范，要点齐全； 2. 省略部分请用1~2句话补充完整； 3. 文中不得提及真实的人名、校名； 4. 词数90字左右。 A Friend From the USA Andy is my new friend from the USA．He is ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 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 $ 2025-2026学年八年级上学期期中考试（盐城卷） 英语 注意事项： 1.全卷满分120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（选择题，共65分） 一、补全对话（共5小题，每小题2分，计10分） 根据对话内容，从方框内选择恰当的句子将对话补充完整。 A: Oh, Tom.

Do you know what an important role it plays in the whole world? Did you visit any famous places along the road? Although it’s called the Silk Road, people bought and sold much more than silk. The Silk Road went through Asia, the Middle East, North Africa and Europe. It was 6,500 km from Xi’an to Rome. My dad is very interested in the Silk Road and he has told me many things about it. Last summer, my family got away for a holiday and went to some places on the road. We started at Lanzhou and went on to Wuwei. Wuwei was a very important city on the Silk Road. It connected (连接) three main cities in the area. In ancient times, it was also a capital. Although it’s now a modern city, you can get a feeling of history when you visit it. We saw lots of very old stone monuments and people there were very proud of their city’s long history. The next stop was Jiayuguan. It’s on the edge (边缘) of the desert, and was also an important place on the Silk Road. It was a busy city with a lot of people coming and going. Even today, it’s a city that many business people travel through. An important part of the Great Wall was also built here. After that, we went on to Yumenguan. I first found out about Yumenguan in the famous poem written by Wang Zhihuan. It was in the Gobi Desert and was the only connection between Central Asia and China. I wonder how people ever made it through the hot desert so long ago. This trip wasn’t just a scenic (观光的) journey. It helped me understand the history of the area and see how people from different places influenced (影响) each other in many ways. 27．Why does the writer use questions in Paragraph 1?

Mark and Timo were glad that they weren’t lugging (用力拖) cans today. It was Wednesday yesterday, and it took hours to get all of the cans they had saved to the recycling center. Today, the boys had to know how much money they got and what to do with it. They talked about bikes and basketballs. They dreamed about rockets and hot air balloons (气球). As they walked, Mark bent over and picked up a can without even thinking about it. When he saw the can in his hand, he laughed. “Old habits die hard,” Timo said. “Maybe we had better buy more rubbish bags!” Mark and Timo were still laughing about picking up cans when they caught up with Mr. Timmons. “Hi. Mr. Timmons,” smiled Timo, “Where are you heading?” Mr. Timmons seemed pleased to see them. “Well, I’m on my way to help at the food pantry (食品柜).” “What goes on there?” Mark asked. “Oh, they always need to help pack or unpack cans of food,” Mr. Timmons answered, “The pantry helps those people who don’t have enough money to buy food.” “Not enough money for food?” said the boys together.

B．Mark bought a bike and Timo bought a basketball with the money. C．The boys bought food for poor people with their recycling money. D．The boys became interested in rockets and dreamed to work at them. 【答案】31．C 32．C 33．B 34．C 35．C 【导语】本文主要讲述了当Mark和Timo正在讨论用赚的钱买什么时，遇见了Timmons先生，并从他那里得知现在还有人没钱吃饭，所以他们决定用赚的钱帮助有需要的人。 31．细节理解题。根据“It was Wednesday yesterday, and it took hours to get all of the cans they had saved to the recycling center.”可知，Mark和Timo星期三那天把捡的易拉罐卖给了回收中心，故选C。 32．词句猜测题。根据“ it took hours to get all of the cans they had saved to the recycling center.”可知，Mark和Timo两人捡易拉罐卖；再根据“As they walked, Mark bent over and picked up a can without even thinking about it.”可知，走路时，Mark想都没想就弯下腰捡起了一个易拉罐，说明捡易拉罐是一种长期形成的习惯性行为，很难改变；因此 “Old habits die hard”的含义为“旧习难改”。故选C。 33．推理判断题。根据第一段“It was Wednesday yesterday”可知，Mark和Timo在星期四遇见Timmons先生，结合第六段“Mr. Timmons seemed pleased to see them. ‘Well, I’m on my way to help at the food pantry (食品柜).’ ’”可知，Mark和Timo遇见Timmons 先生那天，他正在去食品柜的路上，由此推测，Thomas先生是星期四去食品柜，故选B。 34．细节理解题。根据“As they walked, Mark bent over and picked up a can without even thinking about it.”可知，首先是Mark捡起了易拉罐，即①排第一；再根据“Maybe we had better buy more rubbish bags!”可知，然后是Timo建议买更多的垃圾袋，即②；再根据“Mark and Timo were still laughing about picking up cans when they caught up with Mr. Timmons.”可知，然后是Mark和Timo遇到了Timmons 先生，即④；根据“I think we just found out what to do with our recycling money.”可知，最后是两人找到如何使用回收废品卖的钱了，即③。综上，正确的顺序为①→②→④→③。故选C。 35．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“‘Not enough money for food?’ said the boys together. They looked at each other and agreed.”和最后一段“ ‘Can we come along, Mr. Timmons?’ asked Timo. ‘I think we just found out what to do with our recycling money.’”可推测，男孩们将用回收的钱给穷人买食物。故选C。 （二）阅读短文，并从下面方框的六个句子中选择五个还原到文中，使原文的意思完整、连贯。 As prices and building costs keep rising, 36 “We needed furniture for our living room,” says Li Ling, “and we just didn’t have enough money to buy it. 37 .” Li Ling got married six months ago, and like many young people these days, they tried their best to make a home by themselves 38 .

Each channel (频道) has at least one home or garden makeover (装饰，翻新) show. Some channels are e 56 completely talking about the subject. I don’t think it’s really s 57 that DIY programs are so welcomed by people. There are two common British sayings—“an Englishman’s home is castle” and “there’s no place like home”—which show how i 58 their houses are to them. W 59 the economic (经济) changes of the last several years, many people don’t have enough money to buy bigger houses than before.
