Many wild animals don’t have enough places to live. People keep taking their living places to make more space for farms and buildings. This will lead to less and less food and space for wildlife. Moreover, wild animals face serious problems in the wild. People hunt wild animals for their fur, bones or other parts of their body. We protect wild animals not only because wild animals are our friends but also because wild animals help keep a balance between humans and nature. If there are no wild animals, there will be no humans. Therefore, we must take action to save wild animals. First, we shouldn’t buy fur coats any more. Second, we can write to the government and give some advice. Last but not least, we should call on everybody to know the importance of wildlife. 【解析】【思路点拨】 ①题材：本文是一篇材料作文； ②时态：时态以“一般现在时”为主； ③提示：写作要点已给出，考生应根据提示要点进行书面表达，不要遗漏要点 【亮点词汇】 ①keep doing 坚持做 ②lead to导致 ③not only…but also…不仅……而且…… ④call on 号召 【高分句型】 ①We protect wild animals not only because wild animals are our friends but also because wild animals help keep a balance between humans and nature.（not only…but also…连接的并列句） ②If there are no wild animals, there will be no humans.（if引导的条件状语从句） 【结构布局】 第一步，表明写作意图。介绍野生动物面临的危险； 第二步，具体阐述为什么要保护野生动物； 第三步，介绍保护野生动物的措施，书写结语。 第2页，共2页 第1页，共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ ( …………○…………内…………○…………装…………○…………订…………○…………线…………○………… ) ( ※※请※※不※※要※※在※※装※※订※※线※※内※※答※※题※※ ) ( …………○…………外…………○…………装…………○…………订…………○…………线…………○………… ) ( …………○…………内…………○…………装…………○…………订…………○…………线…………○………… ) ( 学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________ ) ( …………○…………外…………○…………装…………○…………订…………○…………线…………○………… ) 绝密★启用前 江苏省扬州市2025-2026学年度八年级（上） 期末英语模拟试卷 注意事项: 1.答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2.回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡对应题目的答案标号涂黑；如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上，写在试卷上无效。 3.考试结束后，本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第I卷（选择题） 一、单选题：本大题共15小题，共15分。 1.Many wild animals are still being hunted for their fur and bones.None of the hunters have ________pity on them.What________shame it is!（　　） A.  /，a B.  a，a C.  a， / D.  /， / 2."Blow" with the sound / / rhymes（押韵） with_______（　　） A. cow B. how C. now D. grow 3.---Welcome to our school! ---Your school is so beautiful and much bigger than       .（　　） A. our B. ours C. we D. us 4.Mr. Green told us a funny story in class. ________, all the students laughed.

Collect them till full is your ________; They would recall sweet memories. (Translated by Xu Yuanchong) Love is a popular theme (主题) in Chinese poems. What symbols (象征) do you think best stand for love? The heart, rose or chocolate? This time we are going to look at a classic Chinese poem, Love Seeds. It was written by Tang Dynasty poet Wang Wei who had a different understanding of the symbol of love. In the first two lines, the poet shows his feelings of missing his friend, who lives in southern China, by describing the growth of red beans in spring. In classic Chinese poems, poets prefer to show feelings in an indirect or symbolic way. When describing the natural things or showing some symbols, Chinese poets always mean more than what’s described on the surface (表面). In Chinese culture, red beans are seen as “love seeds”, which have a strong cultural meaning. Because they are often hard, come in a heart shape, and can be stored for a long time. They have long been used as a symbol of love and loyalty (忠诚) between lovers. In the last two lines, the poet wishes his faraway friend to collect as many red beans as possible, as the beans will bring back his friend’s memories to the poet. Instead of showing love to others by directly saying “I miss you” or using flowery language, this short poem can make readers feel deep love. 38.Which word is the most suitable for ________? A. home B. hand C. heart D. arm 39.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. Love Seeds is written by Wang Wei, a great poet of Song Dynasty. B. Red beans have long been used as a symbol of loyalty between friends. C. Wang Wei thinks red beans will bring back his friend’s memories to him. D. In classic Chinese poems, poets like to use a direct way to show feelings. 40.What does the underlined word “they” refer to? A. Red beans. B. Cultural meanings. C. Lovers. D. Chinese poets. 41.Which of the following has the same theme of Love Seeds written by Wang Wei? A. Head up, the moon bright; Head down, homesick I’m found! B. Good rain knows its time right; It will fall when comes spring. C. From hill to hill no bird in flight; From path to path no men in sight. D. If love between both sides can last for aye, why need they stay together night and day? D Do you often ask questions? Children are known for wanting answers to many questions because curiosity (好奇心) is part of human nature. As we all know, curiosity has many good points. Many great discoveries (发现) in history were made by curious people. People wondered how things worked and how work could be done more quickly. Thanks to their curiosity, people now know a lot more about the world and have useful technology to help them. Curiosity can still help you in the classroom. If you develop the curiosity of learning, classes will become more interesting and you will do well in schoolwork. Even if you’re no longer a student, curiosity will make you a great worker. ______ Luckily, curiosity is a skill that can be improved. Often, the more you learn about a topic, the more interesting it becomes. To improve your curiosity, get information from as many sources (来源) as possible, when you learn about a topic. At the same time, read all kinds of books, watch or listen to speeches and ask questions. Don’t assume you already know everything. Remember, everyone knows something that you don’t know. Find out what it is, and ask…out it. This lets you learn something and makes the other people happy by sharing their knowledge. Let’s try to become people who are full of curiosity. 42.According to Paragraph 2, curiosity makes people ______. A. do well in everything B. lose interest in learning C. afraid to ask questions D. be more creative and active 43.Which of the following can be put in ______. A. What will you do if you’re not curious? B. Also, curiosity moves people forward. C. People needn’t develop curiosity further. D. However, curiosity has bad sides, too. 44.What does the underlined word “assume” in the last paragraph mean? A. forget. B. wonder. C. think. D. worry. 45.What would be the best title for the passage? A. Learn to Ask Questions B. Try to Be Curious C. Ways to Improve Your Curiosity D.
