Hakka Cantonese Cantonese,.known as“Guangdonghua'”or“Yueyu”is the most influential Chinese dialect outside Mainland China.It has over 80 million speakers worldwide and is the main language in Guangzhou,Foshan,Hong Kong,and Macao.Cantonese keeps many ancient Chinese pronunciations and expressions that are no longer used in Mandarin.It is also the main language of traditional Lingnan culture,including Cantonese opera,lion dance,and early Chinese movies. Teochew Teochew,or "Chaozhouhua",is spoken mainly in eastern Guangdong,especially in Chaozhou and Shantou.It is part of the Min dialect group and is also used by many overseas Chinese in Southeast Asia.Teochew is known for its complex tone system and classical vocabulary.It plays an important role in local customs,such as Teochew opera,Gongfu tea ceremony,and traditional folk music Hakka Hakka,or“Kejiahua”,is spoken by the Hakka people,who are distributed(分布)across many parts of Guangdong,as well as Fujian,Jiangxi,and Taiwan.Hakka culture emphasizes family unity and hard work.The language has a strong historical connection to ancient central Chinese and has developed differently due to migration().Hakka folk songs and roundhouse architecture are important parts of their cultural heritage. These three languages not only help people communicate but also protect and pass on local traditions.Learning about them can help us understand the colorful cultural map of Guangdong.

B.In a travel magazine about Guangdong culture. C.In a research paper on language development. D.In a news article about world languages. B Artificial intelligence (AI)is now used in modern healthcare,especially to help read medical scans()like X-rays.These AI systems learn from millions of past images to find signs of disease.They are fast and accurate.However,the real question is not if AI will take doctors'jobs, but how doctors and AI can work well together. In many modern hospitals,AI acts as a smart assistant in a"double-check"system.Here is how it works:first,a doctor checks a patient's scan carefully to look for problems.Then,the AI software studies the same picture on its own.It can point out small problems,like tiny tumors( )that a person might miss.Studies show this teamwork helps find serious diseases earlier and leads to better decisions. However,using AI in medicine also has difficulties.A major worry is"algorithmic bias( ).This means if an AI is trained mostly with data from one group of people,it may not work as well for patients with different backgrounds,which could make healthcare less fair.Also,some AI tools are like a "black box"-even experts cannot always explain how they reached an answer. This makes it hard to fully trust them. The best future for AI in medicine is a close partnership.The goal is to mix human skill and experience with the speed of machines.New doctors are now learning how to judge AI's advice.In this team,doctors provide important thinking and care for patients,while AI adds its fast analysis. Working together,they can build a better,fairer,and more effective healthcare system for everyone. ()16.What is the main topic discussed in the passage? A.How AI is changing the training of new doctors. B.The risks of using AI to treat patients directly. C.How AI helps and the problems it brings in finding diseases. D.A comparison of AI and human doctors in reading X-rays. ()17.In the"double-check"system described,what is the correct order of work? A.The AI examines the scan first,then the doctor reviews it. B.The AI gives the final answer based on the doctor's notes. C.The doctor and the AI work independently and then compare. D.The doctor reviews the scan first,then the AI analyzes it. 八年级英语共8页本页第3页 )18.Based on the passage,what is a likely outcome of"algorithmic bias"? A.Hospitals might not afford AI tools anymore. B.Some patients may get less correct health results C.Doctors could become less skilled by using AI. D.Scanning patients will need much more time. ( )19.Why does the author mention the "black box"problem? A.To point out an issue that reduces AI's trust. B.To show how fast Al can process information. C.To describe the common color of Al equipment. D.To suggest AI is secretly controlled by humans. ()20.Which of the following best describes the author's view on the future of AI in medicine? A.AI is too risky and unfair to be used now. B.AI will replace doctors completely soon. C.Doctors and AI will team up for better results. D.AI is only for labs,not real hospitals. C A student once traveled far to visit Althea,a famous thinker."Wise one,"he said,"guide me to true wisdom."Althea asked,"Why do you think I can?""People know you can always understand things deeply,"the student replied."I have read many books,but I feel no wiser." "Then come with me,"Althea said.She led him into a vast,hot desert.After hours of walking, the tired and thirsty student stopped with her at a deep,dry well."Look inside,"she instructed.He saw only sand and stone."There is nothing here,"he said,confused. Althea handed him a small bucket."Draw water from this well." “But it is dry！"he complained. Try,”she insisted. The student lowered the bucket.It reached the bottom and came up empty.He tried repeatedly, lifting only dust.His throat grew parched,his arms was in pain,and doubt filled his mind.Finally, he felt rather upset."This is pointless.There is no water." Althea sat beside him."What did you want most as you worked?" “Water,,”he whispered..“Just a single drop.” "Wisdom is like water in this well,"she explained."You cannot find it where it is easy.True understanding requires endurance()to look for beyond what you see,even when you find emptiness first.You can get it by trying your best without stopping." The student fell silent.He had expected clear answers but was given a difficult path.Yet at that moment,he began to understand:wisdom comes not from being filled with facts,but from the thirst that drives the long search. )21.Why does the student believe Althea can help him? A.Because she is known for her deep understanding. B.Because she has written many famous books. 八年级英语共8页本页第4页 C.Because she offers quick and clear answers to everyone. D.Because she lives far away in the desert. )22.What is the first physical challenge Althea presents to the student? A.Drawing water from a deep well immediately. B.Surviving alone in the desert for a night. C.A long,tiring walk into a hot desert. D.Finding food and shelter with no help. ()23.In the story,what does the word"parched"most closely mean? A.Slightly tired.B.Extremely dry.C.Very anxious. D.Rather disappointed. ()24.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A.The student had expected clear answers to true wisdom at first. B.Althea chose the desert well because it had water hidden inside. C.The student had walked through the desert many times before.

A.It is a gift given by true and wise masters to good students. B.It is got through getting water from the desert well. C.It is achieved by giving up all knowledge learned from books. D.It is found in the active,long search driven by a thirst to know. D Beneath the wide,white surface of the Antarctic ice sheet there is a strange new world:lakes under the ice.The biggest one is Lake Vostok(沃斯托克湖).It has been shut under about four kilometres of ice for maybe 20 million years.The thick ice keeps the lake in total darkness,far away from the world above.A Getting to the lake and studying it,however,is hard work for scientists.The most important job is to keep the lake's old,clean water safe from dirt.Scientists use special hot drills that make a small hole through the hard ice.They follow strict rules to keep everything clean.They take small bottles of water and mud from the lake and make sure nothing from the outside gets in.Then they look for signs of life,hoping to find tiny living things called“extremophiles(超级微生物)”that can live where most other things would die. If life is found in Lake Vostok,it would be big news for more than just our planet.This cold, dark and closed place is a lot like what scientists think may exist on icy moons in space.For example,Jupiter's moon ()Europa may have large oceans under its ice.If life can live in Lake Vostok after millions of years of isolation,it gives scientists a stronger reason to think that life might also live in the hidden oceans of those far-off worlds.In this way,studying this hidden lake on Earth helps us get ready to look for life in space. 八年级英语共8页本页第5页 ()26.Which is the followings can be put inA in Paragraph 1? A.However,the ice above it is melting very quickly. B.This discovery has attracted many tourists to the area. C.Therefore,its water is considered the most valuable. D.So that is why scientists wonder if life exists there. ()27.What is the most important thing scientists must do when they take water from the lake? A.Prevent outside dirt from entering the water. B.Remove all mud to make the water perfectly clear. C.Keep the water warm enough so it does not freeze. D.Prove the lake is linked to other lakes underground. ()28.The word "isolation"in Paragraph 3 most likely means a state of being A.very cold B.all alone C.under pressure D.full of life ()29.How does finding life in Lake Vostok help space scientists? A.It proves Europa holds the same form of life. B.It shows where to land the next spacecraft safely. C.It suggests life could exist under ice on moons. D.It explains how life first began on icy planets. ()30.What does the passage mainly talk about? A.The future plans to explore Lake Vostok in Antarctic areas. B.The challenges of drilling through thick ice in Antarctica. C.How scientists study a hidden lake under Antarctic ice. D.Why studying an icy lake on Earth matters for space research. 第三节七选五（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。 In recent years,more students are choosing to take a break from social media.Some do it to focus on tests,others feel tired of screen time,and a few want real-world experience.While this sounds good,many find it harder than thought because they may feel suddenly disconnected.31 If you're considering a break or know someone who is trying,here is some advice. A common mistake is thinking that leaving social media means losing friends.We might worry about missing fun talks or activities.32The key is not to be alone,but to find other things to do.Plan real-life activities such as joining a sports team or meeting friends.Real-life experiences help you build deeper relationships and develop skills beyond the screen. 33 We often pick up phones without really thinking,out of habit or boredom.To change this,make the apps less easy to use.You can move media apps away from your screen or turn off message sounds.Use that time for something you planned,like a short walk or listening to music. Another problem is pressure from friends.They might ask why you don't like their photos or 八年级英语共8页本页第6页 answer their messages right away.34You can explain quietly you're taking a short break to pay more attention to school and that you still care about them.Good friends will understand. Finally,don't expect too much too soon.35The goal is not to change completely in one day,but to have a better balance with phones and computers.Be happy about small successes,like not checking phone for a whole day.Slowly,you may find you have more time to think,sleep better, and enjoy real life more. A.Be ready with a simple and true answer. B.The wish to check your phone can come almost without thinking C.This feeling of being cut off can make people stop trying very soon. D.Social media apps are made to keep you using them as long as possible. E.Instead of feeling you are losing something,think about what you might gain F.Having possible goals is very important to keep yourself going and to do well. G.So,the first thing is to tell everyone about your plan so they can help you. 第四节短文填空（共10小题：每小题1.5分，满分15分） 阅读短文，按照句子结构和上下文的连贯要求，在空格处填入适当的单词，并将答案填写在 答题卡标号为3645的相应位置上（每个空只能填写一个形式正确，意义相符的单词）。 In cities,you see paintings on walls,sculptures()in parks,or light shows at night.This is public art,and it isn't just about 36. the places look nicer.It can influence 37 we feel about our communities and start important conversations.

Schools are also joining this trend.Some classes have set up "tool libraries"where students can borrow items like calculators or sports equipment instead of buying new ones.This not only saves money but also reduces waste and teaches responsibility.Other schools have "skill-sharing boards"where students offer help in subjects they are good at.For example,a student skilled in drawing might give tips,while another good at math can teach classmates.Technology,such as group chats or simple apps,helps organize these sharing activities smoothly. Through these small actions,people are learning that sharing is more than just using things together-it's about building trust,cooperation,and a warmer community.By sharing what we have and what we know,we can create a more connected and sustainable future. 假设你是李华，你所在的学校正在开展“共享校园”建设活动。请你根据阅读材料提 示，以“How I Can Help Build a Sharing School'”为题，写一篇英语短文。 内容包括： (1)简述阅读材料中给你印象最深的一个共享社区例子； (2)结合中学生生活，提出两个可以在校园内推广共享的创意想法，并说明理由； (3)谈谈你对“共享校园”意义的理解，并号召同学们积极参与。 【写作要求】 1.作文中可以使用亲身经历或虚构的故事，也可以参照阅读材料的内容，但不能直接引 用原文中的句子。 2.作文中不能出现真实姓名和学校名称。 八年级英语共8页本页第8页 ■口口口 2025-2026学年八年级学科核心素养测试 英语答题卡 考号： [o] [o] [o] [o] 10 [o] [o] [o] [o] [o] 学校 班级 姓名 考场号 座位号 [2] [3] 3] [3] [3] 注意事项： [4] [4 [4] 离 离 离 离 岛 [6] 6] 1、答题前，考生务必用黑色字迹的钢笔或铅笔填写学校、班级、姓名、考场号、 [6] [6] 岛 座位号、准考证号，再用2B铅笔把准考证号的对应数字涂黑。 t7) [8] 3EE 35 E5 2.保持卡面清洁，不要折叠，不要弄破。 [9] 9] [9 t91 [91 9 [9] [9] 第1页（共1页） 9] [9] 1 [A][B][C][D] 6[A][B][C][D] 11[A][B][C] [D] 16 [A][B][C][D] 2【AJ[B][c][D] 7 [A][B][C][D] 12 [A][B][C] [D] 17 [A] [B] [c] [D] 3 [A][B][C][D] 8[AJ[B][C][D] 13 [A][B][C] [D] 18 [A] [B][C] [D] 4[A]CB][C】[D] 9 CA][B][C] [D] 14 [A][B][C][D] 19 CA][B][c] [D] 5 [A][B][C][D] 10[A][B][C][D] 15 CA][B][C][D] 20 [A][B][C] [D] 21 CA][B][C][D] 26 CA][B][C]CD] 31 [A][B][C][D][E][F][G] 22 [A][B][C][D] 27 CA][B][C][D] [A][BJ[C)D][E][F][G] 23 [A][B][C][D] CA][B][C][D] [A][B]CC][D][E][F][G] 24 [A][B][c][D] 29 [A][B][C][D] 34[A][B][C][D][E][F][G] 25[AJ[B][C][D] 30 CA][B][c] [D] 35 [AJ[B][C][D][E][F][G] 四、短文填空（共20小题， 每小题1.5分，满分15分) 36. 37 38 39 40 41 42. 43 44 五、 书面表达（满分20分） 1/1
