It can make our after-school life more meaningful and colorful. It can also open up our eyes and minds. As a result, we would grow into better people through reading more. However, some students spend much time on short videos or computer games. Fewer and fewer students are interested in reading. So I advise everyone to read more books, especially classics, so that we can spread traditional Chinese culture to the world. Let’s start reading now, and let it become part of our life! 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司1 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025-2026学年八年级下册英语单元自测 Unit4·提升卷 学校:___________班级：___________姓名：___________分数：___________ （时间：90分钟，满分：100分） 一、单项选择。(本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) 1．—What’s the name of the book you’re reading? —Its ________ is “The Star Chaser”, which perfectly captures the story’s spirit of chasing dreams.

This idea could soon come true. The Maldives is building the world’s first floating (漂浮的) city and plans to complete it in 2027. The city is like a man-made island. People will live on floating platforms (平台). These platforms are connected and placed along a hexagonal grid (六角网格). Natural coral reefs (珊瑚礁) will be grown around the city to keep the floating city stable (稳定的), so people who live here won’t feel seasick. People will live a self-sufficient (自给自足的) life in the floating city. Electricity will be powered by solar energy (太阳能). Sewage (污水) will be treated there. More importantly, the island is not far away from land. It takes only 10 minutes to travel by boat between there and the capital of the Maldives. Cool as it seems, the city is designed to solve real problems. The Maldives is one of the world’s lowest-lying countries. Most of its islands—including the capital—stand about 1 meter above sea level. And now climate change has brought a big problem—the rising sea level. According to CNN, 80 percent of the country’s land area will be under the sea by the end of the century. “In the Maldives, we cannot stop the waves, but we can rise with them,” Mohamed Nasheed, former president (前总统) of the country, told Newsweek magazine. Choose the answer: 31．What do we know about the floating city in the Maldives? A．It creates land on the ocean. B．It is far away from land. C．It is a wide and whole platform. D．It will be finished in three years. 32．Which of the following reflects that the floating city is self-sufficient? A．It won’t cause ocean pollution. B．It is powered by solar energy. C．It is connected to land. D．It can deal with sewage from the Maldives. 33．The floating city is designed to _____. A．slow down the speed of climate change B．protect the country from the rising sea level C．take the place of the capital of the Maldives D．introduce a new way of living in the sea 【答案】31．D 32．B 33．B 【导语】本文主要介绍了马尔代夫正在建造世界上第一座漂浮城市。 31．细节理解题。根据“The Maldives is building the world’s first floating (漂浮的) city and plans to complete it in 2027.”可知，现在是2025年，马尔代夫计划建造世界上第一座漂浮城市于2027年完成，也就是说计划三年内完成。故选D。 32．细节理解题。根据“People will live a self-sufficient (自给自足的) life in the floating city. Electricity will be powered by solar energy (太阳能).”可知，太阳能供电是自给自足的直接体现。故选B。 33．细节理解题。根据“Cool as it seems, the city is designed to solve real problems.…And now climate change has brought a big problem—the rising sea level.”可知，马尔代夫因海平面上升面临威胁，城市设计目的是应对海平面上升的问题。故选B。 B A student stuck a note on his classmate’s back while they were at recess (课间休息) one day. The note said “I’m Stupid”. He asked the rest of his classmates not to tell the boy. The other students started laughing at the boy, but wouldn’t say why. Soon, it was time for their afternoon math class. Their teacher wrote a difficult problem on the blackboard. No one was able to solve it except the boy with the note on his back. Ignoring the laughter, he walked toward the blackboard and solved the problem. The teacher asked the class to clap (鼓掌) for him and took the note off his back. She told him, “It seems that you didn’t know about the note your classmate put on your back, but you didn’t seem to care anyway.” Then the teacher looked at the rest of the class and said, “Before I punish you all, let me tell you two things. First, all of you will be labeled (贴标签) at one point or another by other people who don’t want you to succeed. All you have to do is ignore these labels. You have to take every chance you have to learn, grow and improve.” Then the teacher added, “And it seems that none of you are friends with this boy, since none of you were kind enough to tell him about the note. If that’s true, then you’d better hope that you have some good friends yourself. Otherwise, you might be the one with a note stuck on your back someday with no one to tell you.” 34. Why did the student stick the note on the boy’s back? A. To make the teacher notice the boy.  B. To help him with a math question. C. To play a game during the break. D. To make fun of the boy.  35. What advice did the teacher give if someone is labeled by others? A. Listen to what others say. B. Don’t care about the label. C. Turn to the teacher for help. D. Punish the one who labeled them. 36. What lesson might the teacher try to tell all the students? A. We should learn from our friends.  B. We need to make as many friends as possible. C. It’s important to consider how others feel. D. It’s not easy to build strong friendships. 【答案】34. D 35. B 36. C 【导语】文章讲述了一个学生在课间休息时把写有 “我很愚蠢” 的纸条贴在同学背上，想捉弄他，其他同学嘲笑这个男孩但不告诉他原因。下午的数学课上，背上贴着纸条的男孩解出了黑板上没人能解出的难题，老师让同学们鼓掌并取下纸条。老师借此教育同学们两点：一是被别人贴标签时要忽略标签，抓住机会学习、成长和进步；二是如果都不友善地对待同学，将来自己也可能面临无人相助的境地。 34.细节理解题。根据 “The note said ‘I’m Stupid’. He asked the rest of his classmates not to tell the boy. The other students started laughing at the boy”（纸条上写着 “我很愚蠢”。他让其他同学不要告诉这个男孩。其他学生开始嘲笑这个男孩），可以看出这个学生把纸条贴在男孩背上是为了取笑他。故选D。 35.推理题。由 “First, all of you will be labeled (贴标签) at one point or another by other people who don’t want you to succeed. All you have to do is ignore these labels.”（首先，你们所有人都会被那些不想让你们成功的人贴上这样或那样的标签。你们所要做的就是忽略这些标签）可知，如果被别人贴标签，老师建议不要在意这个标签。故选B。 36.推理判断题。从 “And it seems that none of you are friends with this boy, since none of you were kind enough to tell him about the note. If that’s true, then you’d better hope that you have some good friends yourself. Otherwise, you might be the one with a note stuck on your back someday with no one to tell you.”（看起来你们没有人是这个男孩的朋友，因为你们没有一个人好心到告诉他纸条的事。如果这是真的，那么你们最好希望自己有一些好朋友。否则，有一天你可能会成为那个背上贴着纸条却没人告诉你的人）可以推断出，老师想告诉所有学生考虑他人感受是很重要的。故选C。 C   At first, I could hardly see anything. After moving down through dark, narrow caves, my eyes were not used to the light. But when I could focus again, I stood in surprise. “It’s a…sea,” I cried. “Yes. Axel,” my uncle said, “and I shall give it my name, as I discovered it!” There was a great lake or even an ocean. The shore was covered with small shells where the first living beings lived. Around this sea stood a huge rock wall. I could see far over this great sea because of a strange light. Not sunlight, of course, as we were deep below the surface. With its bright, clear whiteness, the light must have been electric. We kept quiet inside a cave that must have been several miles high. Human words cannot describe the discoveries of those who have been deep into the earth. My imagination was powerless before such wonders. I felt surprised and quite scared at the same time. However, the soft salty air cheered me up. After many days in much narrower spaces, it was a great relief. “Ready to walk a little now?” asked my uncle. “Yes, certainly.” “Well, let us follow the shore then,” he said, and we began to explore. Soon, in front of us appeared a forest with trees like umbrellas. “Mushrooms!” said my uncle. And he was right! There were mushrooms in their thousands, and each was at least nine metres high. How excellent they were! “Wonderful!” cried my uncle. “Now look under your feet.” I hadn’t noticed the many bones under our feet as we walked. Suddenly I thought, if once these monsters lived here, might some still walk through these dark forests? I looked around nervously, but we were the only living beings in this underworld. Thankfully! Finally, we returned to the cave we had entered from, and I went to sleep with strange thoughts. Where did this underground sea end? Where would we go? —Adapted from A Journey to the Centre of the Earth 37．Which of the following pictures can we add to the story? A．B． C． D．​ 38．Which of the following describes things the same way as the underlined sentence? A．The boy was so hungry that he could eat a horse. B．It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. C．The girl was as brave as a lion when facing problems. D．She sells special and stylish seashells by the seashore. 39．What is the RIGHT order of the story? Axel and his uncle saw many mushrooms. Axel slept with strange thoughts. Axel guessed that the light was electric. Axel’s uncle discovered a great sea. Axel and his uncle walked on the bones. A． B． C． D． 40．Why did Axel’s feelings change so many times during the journey? A．Because the underground world was too dark. B．Because he was unable to think in a clear way. C．Because he was so tired that he wanted to sleep. D．Because the journey was full of the unexpected. 【答案】37．A 38．C 39．B 40．D 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，节选自《地心游记》。作者随叔叔深入地底，先是适应了昏暗环境，随后发现了一片地下大海，以及巨大如伞的蘑菇森林和遍地的骨骼，种种意想不到的景象令人既惊叹又紧张，最后作者带着各样奇思进入睡眠。 37．细节理解题。根据“Soon in front of us appeared a forest with trees like umbrellas. ‘Mushrooms!’ said my uncle...There were mushrooms in their thousands, and each was at least nine metres high.”可知，作者和叔叔看到了成片巨大的蘑菇，与选项A中出现巨型蘑菇的图片相符。故选A。 38．推理判断题。划线句“trees like umbrellas”使用了明喻（like）的修辞手法，把蘑菇树比作伞，结合选项可知，选项C“The girl was as brave as a lion when facing problems.”也用了明喻，把女孩比作狮子，和原句的修辞方式一致。故选C。 39．细节理解题。根据“‘Yes. Axel,’ my uncle said, ‘and I shall give it my name, as I discovered it!’”；“With its bright, clear whiteness, the light must have been electric.”；“Soon in front of us appeared a forest with trees like umbrellas. ‘Mushrooms!’ said my uncle.”；“I hadn’t noticed the many bones under our feet as we walked.”以及“Finally, we returned to the cave we had entered from, and I went to sleep with strange thoughts.”可知，正确顺序是：叔叔发现地下大海→Axel猜测那光是电光→他们看到巨大的蘑菇→他们走在骨骼上→Axel带着奇怪的想法入睡。故选B。 40．推理判断题。根据文中描述，Axel先看不清事物，进入洞穴后又见到奇异的光、巨大的海、伞状蘑菇树、地下骨头等诸多意外景象，因此他感受不断变化的原因是地下世界充满了意想不到的景象。故选D。 D Students in Denmark take national tests on a computer at different times. With 4 years’ test results, researchers found something interesting. Students who took the test in the morning scored higher than those who took it in the afternoon. So what happens? We might have noticed that in the afternoon we become less productive and the work we do is of lower quality. A lot of people around the world experience the same thing every day. That’s called the afternoon slump (低迷). Why does this happen? Our bodies are controlled by our circadian rhythm (昼夜规律) which is like a clock. It tells our bodies when to go to sleep and wake up. Our energy levels change with the circadian rhythm. We are smarter and more energetic during some parts of the day, while during others, we are less energetic. For example, during the night we experience a large drop in energy, especially between 2 a.m. to 4 a.m. However, our energy slowly rises after waking up until it reaches the highest in the late morning. But it is then followed by an afternoon low, which we call the afternoon slump. The low appears about seven hours after waking up, which is usually between 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. for most people. This is the time when people make more mistakes during the daytime. When the afternoon slump is over, it rises again. But as our body gets ready for sleep, it slowly drops. The afternoon slump is natural, but there are some ways to get the energy back. Stretching (拉伸) for even 20 seconds, taking a break for about 15 minutes, eating a bar of black chocolate and so on can have a huge influence on your energy levels. Hopefully, you have a better idea about the afternoon slump and what we can do about it. 41．How does the writer support his idea in the third paragraph? A．By comparing the fact. B．By explaining the reason. C．By telling a story. D．By listing some numbers. 42．What can we know about the “afternoon slump”? A．It only happens to students in Denmark. B．It makes students score higher in tests. C．It is caused by natural body rhythms. D．It’s a sign of serious health problems. 43．Which picture shows the change of the energy level with the time? A． B． C． D． 44．What can we infer according to the text? A．The afternoon slump can be completely avoided. B．Our energy levels are the highest in the early morning. C．The afternoon slump is a problem for only students. D．Simple actions like eating snacks helps get energy back. 45．Where is the text probably taken from? A．A science magazine. B．A story book. C．A science fiction. D．A travel guide. 【答案】41．B 42．C 43．C 44．D 45．A 【导语】本文主要讲述了“下午低迷”现象及其原因，并提供了应对这一现象的方法。 41．细节理解题。根据“Our bodies are controlled by our circadian rhythm (昼夜规律) which is like a clock. It tells our bodies when to go to sleep and wake up. Our energy levels change with the circadian rhythm.”可知，作者是通过解释昼夜节律的原因来支持自己的观点。故选B。 42．细节理解题。根据“Our bodies are controlled by our circadian rhythm (昼夜规律) which is like a clock. It tells our bodies when to go to sleep and wake up. Our energy levels change with the circadian rhythm.”可知，“下午低迷”是由人体的自然节律引起的。故选C。 43．细节理解题。根据“For example, during the night we experience a large drop in energy, especially between 2 a.m. to 4 a.m. However, our energy slowly rises after waking up until it reaches the highest in the late morning. But it is then followed by an afternoon low, which we call the afternoon slump. The low appears about seven hours after waking up, which is usually between 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. for most people. This is the time when people make more mistakes during the daytime. When the afternoon slump is over, it rises again. But as our body gets ready for sleep, it slowly drops.”可知，在晚上，我们的能量会大幅下降，尤其是在凌晨2点到4点之间。然而，我们的能量在醒来后慢慢上升，直到上午晚些时候达到顶峰。但高峰过后是午后的低谷，我们称之为午后低谷。最低点出现在起床后7小时左右，对大多数人来说通常是在下午1点到4点之间。这是人们在白天犯更多错误的时间。当下午的低谷结束时，它会再次上涨。但当我们的身体准备睡觉时，它会慢慢下降。选项C图片符合，故选C。 44．推理判断题。根据“Stretching (拉伸) for even 20 seconds, taking a break for about 15 minutes, eating a bar of black chocolate and so on can have a huge influence on your energy levels.”可知，吃零食这样的简单行动有助于恢复能量。故选D。 45．推理判断题。本文主要讲述了“下午低迷”现象及其原因，并提供了应对这一现象的方法，属于科普类文章，可能来自科学杂志。故选A。 五、单词拼写。(本大题共5小题，每小题1分，共5分) 46．T________ (尽管) he was new to the team, he quickly got along with his classmates. 【答案】Though/hough 【详解】句意：尽管他是队里的新人，但他很快就和同学们相处融洽了。根据汉语提示“尽管”及首字母T可知，此处应用Though引导让步状语从句，位于句首首字母大写。故填Though。 47．The travel book d________ (描述) quiet villages, busy markets and friendly people along the way. 【答案】describes/escribes 【详解】句意：这本旅行书描述了沿途宁静的村庄、热闹的市场和友好的人们。根据句意和汉语提示可知，describe“描述”，为动词，此处句子描述客观事实，是一般现在时，主语The travel book是第三人称单数，谓语动词需用第三人称单数形式describes。故填describes。 48．The little boy walked s________ (径直) to his mom with a smile. 【答案】straight/traight 【详解】句意：这个小男孩微笑着径直走向他的妈妈。根据汉语和首字母提示可知，straight为副词，表示径直地，直接地。walk straight to…表示“径直走向……”。故填straight。 49．Our teacher asked us to write three p________ (段落) about our daily life. 【答案】paragraphs/aragraphs 【详解】句意：我们的老师要求我们写三段关于我们日常生活的文字。根据首字母及汉语提示可知，paragraph意为“段落”，由于空前为three，因此空处为名词的复数形式，paragraph的复数形式是paragraphs，故填paragraphs。 50．We must follow school r________ (规则) to keep our school clean and safe. 【答案】rules/ules 【详解】句意：我们必须遵守校规，以保持校园的整洁和安全。根据括号内的中文和首字母“r”提示可知，此处考查rule“规则”，可数名词，“规则”通常不止一条，所以这里需要用复数形式rules表泛指，follow school rules“遵守校规”，固定搭配。故填rules。 六、词汇运用（共5小题，每小题1分，满分5分） 将方框中所给词组的适当形式填入短文中，每词仅用一次。 hand in, give away, plenty of, first of all, be good with 51．There are fresh fruits in the market for us to choose today. 52．She animals and often volunteers to feed cats near her school. 53． , we should finish our homework before watching any TV shows. 54．All students their science reports on time yesterday afternoon. 55．My mom has many old clothes to children in poor areas since last year. 【答案】51．plenty of 52．is good with 53．First of all 54．handed in 55．given away 【解析】51．句意：今天市场上有大量新鲜水果供我们挑选。根据“fresh fruits”（新鲜水果）及备选词汇可知，此处表示“大量的”，用短语plenty of修饰可数名词复数“fruits”。故填plenty of。 52．句意：她善于和动物相处，经常自愿在学校附近喂猫。根据“often volunteers to feed cats”（经常自愿喂猫）及备选词汇可知，此处表示“善于和……相处”，用短语be good with。主语“She”为第三人称单数，句子为一般现在时，be动词用“is”。故填is good with。 53．句意：首先，我们应该在看任何电视节目之前完成作业。根据“we should finish our homework...”（我们应该完成作业）及备选词汇可知，此处表示“首先”，用短语first of all，句首首字母大写。故填First of all。 54．句意：昨天下午所有学生都按时上交了科学报告。根据“their science reports on time”（他们的科学报告按时）及备选词汇可知，此处表示“上交”，用短语hand in。时间状语“yesterday afternoon”（昨天下午）表明句子为一般过去时，动词用过去式handed in。故填handed in。 55．句意：从去年开始，我妈妈就把很多旧衣服捐赠给了贫困地区的孩子。根据“many old clothes to children in poor areas”（很多旧衣服给贫困地区的孩子）及备选词汇可知，此处表示“捐赠”，用短语give away。时间状语“since last year”（从去年开始）表明句子为现在完成时，结构为“have/has + 过去分词”，“give”的过去分词为given。故填given away。 七、短文填空。(本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) 根据短文内容和括号里所给单词，在下文空格处填入所给词的适当形式使短文完整。 Have you heard of Wang Xingxing, the founder of Unitree Company? The Yang BOT robots on the Spring Festival Gala 56 (design) by their team. How Amazing! Here is his speech dedicated (献给) to spring: Believe. Many people might think I was a top student, but actually, I wasn’t. Especially in English—I tried my best but 57 (fail) most of times in high school. In the eyes of teachers and classmates, I was “slower” than others, and I myself felt worried too. However, I have my own love. I spent all my spare time on “small 58 (invent)”. At 10, I built a wind-powered car out of old cardboard. At 15, I made a tiny engine and model airplanes from scrap (废弃的) metal. At 19, I decided to make a robot. No one believed I could do it. At last, I invented a small two-legged robot with just 200 yuan 59 (success). From that experience, I learn that if you want to achieve anything that seems 60 (possible), you just need to break into thousands of small steps and solve them one by one. Later, I faced more challenges. When I started my robot company in my 61 (twenty), many people didn’t believe me. But I believe: Some people only believe when they see, while others see because they believe. In this fast-paced world, I would like 62 (take) it slow, avoiding shortcuts. I believe that if we keep doing difficult but right things, it 63 (pay) off in the future. Till now, the robots our company invented 64 (become) the most popular in the world. We are lucky because technology is growing faster than ever. Together, we can create smarter AI, 65 (good) robots, cooler games and more amazing movies than before.

The Maldives is building the world’s first floating (漂浮的) city and plans to complete it in 2027. The city is like a man-made island. People will live on floating platforms (平台). These platforms are connected and placed along a hexagonal grid (六角网格). Natural coral reefs (珊瑚礁) will be grown around the city to keep the floating city stable (稳定的), so people who live here won’t feel seasick. People will live a self-sufficient (自给自足的) life in the floating city. Electricity will be powered by solar energy (太阳能). Sewage (污水) will be treated there. More importantly, the island is not far away from land. It takes only 10 minutes to travel by boat between there and the capital of the Maldives. Cool as it seems, the city is designed to solve real problems. The Maldives is one of the world’s lowest-lying countries. Most of its islands—including the capital—stand about 1 meter above sea level. And now climate change has brought a big problem—the rising sea level. According to CNN, 80 percent of the country’s land area will be under the sea by the end of the century. “In the Maldives, we cannot stop the waves, but we can rise with them,” Mohamed Nasheed, former president (前总统) of the country, told Newsweek magazine. Choose the answer: 31．What do we know about the floating city in the Maldives? A．It creates land on the ocean. B．It is far away from land. C．It is a wide and whole platform. D．It will be finished in three years. 32．Which of the following reflects that the floating city is self-sufficient? A．It won’t cause ocean pollution. B．It is powered by solar energy. C．It is connected to land. D．It can deal with sewage from the Maldives. 33．The floating city is designed to _____. A．slow down the speed of climate change B．protect the country from the rising sea level C．take the place of the capital of the Maldives D．introduce a new way of living in the sea B A student stuck a note on his classmate’s back while they were at recess (课间休息) one day. The note said “I’m Stupid”. He asked the rest of his classmates not to tell the boy. The other students started laughing at the boy, but wouldn’t say why. Soon, it was time for their afternoon math class. Their teacher wrote a difficult problem on the blackboard. No one was able to solve it except the boy with the note on his back. Ignoring the laughter, he walked toward the blackboard and solved the problem. The teacher asked the class to clap (鼓掌) for him and took the note off his back. She told him, “It seems that you didn’t know about the note your classmate put on your back, but you didn’t seem to care anyway.” Then the teacher looked at the rest of the class and said, “Before I punish you all, let me tell you two things. First, all of you will be labeled (贴标签) at one point or another by other people who don’t want you to succeed. All you have to do is ignore these labels. You have to take every chance you have to learn, grow and improve.” Then the teacher added, “And it seems that none of you are friends with this boy, since none of you were kind enough to tell him about the note. If that’s true, then you’d better hope that you have some good friends yourself. Otherwise, you might be the one with a note stuck on your back someday with no one to tell you.” 34. Why did the student stick the note on the boy’s back? A. To make the teacher notice the boy.  B. To help him with a math question. C. To play a game during the break. D. To make fun of the boy.  35. What advice did the teacher give if someone is labeled by others? A. Listen to what others say. B. Don’t care about the label. C. Turn to the teacher for help. D. Punish the one who labeled them. 36. What lesson might the teacher try to tell all the students? A. We should learn from our friends.  B. We need to make as many friends as possible. C. It’s important to consider how others feel. D. It’s not easy to build strong friendships. C   At first, I could hardly see anything. After moving down through dark, narrow caves, my eyes were not used to the light. But when I could focus again, I stood in surprise. “It’s a…sea,” I cried. “Yes. Axel,” my uncle said, “and I shall give it my name, as I discovered it!” There was a great lake or even an ocean. The shore was covered with small shells where the first living beings lived. Around this sea stood a huge rock wall. I could see far over this great sea because of a strange light. Not sunlight, of course, as we were deep below the surface. With its bright, clear whiteness, the light must have been electric. We kept quiet inside a cave that must have been several miles high. Human words cannot describe the discoveries of those who have been deep into the earth. My imagination was powerless before such wonders. I felt surprised and quite scared at the same time. However, the soft salty air cheered me up. After many days in much narrower spaces, it was a great relief. “Ready to walk a little now?” asked my uncle. “Yes, certainly.” “Well, let us follow the shore then,” he said, and we began to explore. Soon, in front of us appeared a forest with trees like umbrellas. “Mushrooms!” said my uncle. And he was right! There were mushrooms in their thousands, and each was at least nine metres high. How excellent they were! “Wonderful!” cried my uncle. “Now look under your feet.” I hadn’t noticed the many bones under our feet as we walked.

D Students in Denmark take national tests on a computer at different times. With 4 years’ test results, researchers found something interesting. Students who took the test in the morning scored higher than those who took it in the afternoon. So what happens? We might have noticed that in the afternoon we become less productive and the work we do is of lower quality. A lot of people around the world experience the same thing every day. That’s called the afternoon slump (低迷). Why does this happen? Our bodies are controlled by our circadian rhythm (昼夜规律) which is like a clock. It tells our bodies when to go to sleep and wake up. Our energy levels change with the circadian rhythm. We are smarter and more energetic during some parts of the day, while during others, we are less energetic. For example, during the night we experience a large drop in energy, especially between 2 a.m. to 4 a.m. However, our energy slowly rises after waking up until it reaches the highest in the late morning. But it is then followed by an afternoon low, which we call the afternoon slump. The low appears about seven hours after waking up, which is usually between 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. for most people. This is the time when people make more mistakes during the daytime. When the afternoon slump is over, it rises again. But as our body gets ready for sleep, it slowly drops. The afternoon slump is natural, but there are some ways to get the energy back. Stretching (拉伸) for even 20 seconds, taking a break for about 15 minutes, eating a bar of black chocolate and so on can have a huge influence on your energy levels. Hopefully, you have a better idea about the afternoon slump and what we can do about it. 41．How does the writer support his idea in the third paragraph? A．By comparing the fact. B．By explaining the reason. C．By telling a story. D．By listing some numbers. 42．What can we know about the “afternoon slump”? A．It only happens to students in Denmark. B．It makes students score higher in tests. C．It is caused by natural body rhythms. D．It’s a sign of serious health problems. 43．Which picture shows the change of the energy level with the time? A． B． C． D． 44．What can we infer according to the text? A．The afternoon slump can be completely avoided. B．Our energy levels are the highest in the early morning. C．The afternoon slump is a problem for only students. D．Simple actions like eating snacks helps get energy back. 45．Where is the text probably taken from? A．A science magazine. B．A story book. C．A science fiction. D．A travel guide. 五、单词拼写。(本大题共5小题，每小题1分，共5分) 46．T________ (尽管) he was new to the team, he quickly got along with his classmates. 47．The travel book d________ (描述) quiet villages, busy markets and friendly people along the way. 48．The little boy walked s________ (径直) to his mom with a smile. 49．Our teacher asked us to write three p________ (段落) about our daily life. 50．We must follow school r________ (规则) to keep our school clean and safe. 六、词汇运用（共5小题，每小题1分，满分5分） 将方框中所给词组的适当形式填入短文中，每词仅用一次。 hand in, give away, plenty of, first of all, be good with 51．There are fresh fruits in the market for us to choose today. 52．She animals and often volunteers to feed cats near her school. 53． , we should finish our homework before watching any TV shows. 54．All students their science reports on time yesterday afternoon. 55．My mom has many old clothes to children in poor areas since last year. 七、短文填空。(本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) 根据短文内容和括号里所给单词，在下文空格处填入所给词的适当形式使短文完整。 Have you heard of Wang Xingxing, the founder of Unitree Company? The Yang BOT robots on the Spring Festival Gala 56 (design) by their team. How Amazing! Here is his speech dedicated (献给) to spring: Believe. Many people might think I was a top student, but actually, I wasn’t. Especially in English—I tried my best but 57 (fail) most of times in high school. In the eyes of teachers and classmates, I was “slower” than others, and I myself felt worried too. However, I have my own love. I spent all my spare time on “small 58 (invent)”. At 10, I built a wind-powered car out of old cardboard. At 15, I made a tiny engine and model airplanes from scrap (废弃的) metal. At 19, I decided to make a robot. No one believed I could do it. At last, I invented a small two-legged robot with just 200 yuan 59 (success). From that experience, I learn that if you want to achieve anything that seems 60 (possible), you just need to break into thousands of small steps and solve them one by one. Later, I faced more challenges. When I started my robot company in my 61 (twenty), many people didn’t believe me. But I believe: Some people only believe when they see, while others see because they believe. In this fast-paced world, I would like 62 (take) it slow, avoiding shortcuts. I believe that if we keep doing difficult but right things, it 63 (pay) off in the future. Till now, the robots our company invented 64 (become) the most popular in the world.

Teenagers are facing various stress from study, relationships, and self-development. Many of them may experience mental health problems. Stress from schoolwork is a common problem. A large amount of homework, exams, and high expectations (期待) from parents and teachers can make teenagers feel over tired. For example, Tom, a 15-year-old student, often stays up late to finish his homework. He feels so stressed that he sometimes has trouble concentrating in class. Relationship problems also play a big part. Difficulties in getting along with classmates, conflicts (冲突) with parents, or problems in romantic (爱情的) relationships can deeply influence teenagers’ emotions (情绪).

Moreover, the social media (媒介) brings new challenges. Students are crazy with the virtual (虚拟的) world. There is less communication with friends in reality (现实). It’s easy to lead to low self-esteem (自尊) and anxiety (焦虑) among teenagers. It’s important to take actions to deal with these problems. Schools should offer more mental health classes and counseling (咨询) services. Parents need to communicate with their children more effectively and create a supportive (支持的) home environment. And teenagers themselves should learn to express their feelings and ask for help when they need. 66. What kinds of stress that teenagers face are mentioned in the passage? 67.

The Maldives is building the world’s first floating (漂浮的) city and plans to complete it in 2027. The city is like a man-made island. People will live on floating platforms (平台). These platforms are connected and placed along a hexagonal grid (六角网格). Natural coral reefs (珊瑚礁) will be grown around the city to keep the floating city stable (稳定的), so people who live here won’t feel seasick. People will live a self-sufficient (自给自足的) life in the floating city. Electricity will be powered by solar energy (太阳能). Sewage (污水) will be treated there. More importantly, the island is not far away from land. It takes only 10 minutes to travel by boat between there and the capital of the Maldives. Cool as it seems, the city is designed to solve real problems. The Maldives is one of the world’s lowest-lying countries. Most of its islands—including the capital—stand about 1 meter above sea level. And now climate change has brought a big problem—the rising sea level. According to CNN, 80 percent of the country’s land area will be under the sea by the end of the century. “In the Maldives, we cannot stop the waves, but we can rise with them,” Mohamed Nasheed, former president (前总统) of the country, told Newsweek magazine. Choose the answer: 31．What do we know about the floating city in the Maldives? A．It creates land on the ocean. B．It is far away from land. C．It is a wide and whole platform. D．It will be finished in three years. 32．Which of the following reflects that the floating city is self-sufficient? A．It won’t cause ocean pollution. B．It is powered by solar energy. C．It is connected to land. D．It can deal with sewage from the Maldives. 33．The floating city is designed to _____. A．slow down the speed of climate change B．protect the country from the rising sea level C．take the place of the capital of the Maldives D．introduce a new way of living in the sea B A student stuck a note on his classmate’s back while they were at recess (课间休息) one day. The note said “I’m Stupid”. He asked the rest of his classmates not to tell the boy. The other students started laughing at the boy, but wouldn’t say why. Soon, it was time for their afternoon math class. Their teacher wrote a difficult problem on the blackboard. No one was able to solve it except the boy with the note on his back. Ignoring the laughter, he walked toward the blackboard and solved the problem. The teacher asked the class to clap (鼓掌) for him and took the note off his back. She told him, “It seems that you didn’t know about the note your classmate put on your back, but you didn’t seem to care anyway.” Then the teacher looked at the rest of the class and said, “Before I punish you all, let me tell you two things. First, all of you will be labeled (贴标签) at one point or another by other people who don’t want you to succeed. All you have to do is ignore these labels. You have to take every chance you have to learn, grow and improve.” Then the teacher added, “And it seems that none of you are friends with this boy, since none of you were kind enough to tell him about the note. If that’s true, then you’d better hope that you have some good friends yourself. Otherwise, you might be the one with a note stuck on your back someday with no one to tell you.” 34. Why did the student stick the note on the boy’s back? A. To make the teacher notice the boy.  B. To help him with a math question. C. To play a game during the break. D. To make fun of the boy.  35. What advice did the teacher give if someone is labeled by others? A. Listen to what others say. B. Don’t care about the label. C. Turn to the teacher for help. D. Punish the one who labeled them. 36. What lesson might the teacher try to tell all the students? A. We should learn from our friends.  B. We need to make as many friends as possible. C. It’s important to consider how others feel. D. It’s not easy to build strong friendships. C   At first, I could hardly see anything. After moving down through dark, narrow caves, my eyes were not used to the light. But when I could focus again, I stood in surprise. “It’s a…sea,” I cried. “Yes. Axel,” my uncle said, “and I shall give it my name, as I discovered it!” There was a great lake or even an ocean. The shore was covered with small shells where the first living beings lived. Around this sea stood a huge rock wall. I could see far over this great sea because of a strange light. Not sunlight, of course, as we were deep below the surface. With its bright, clear whiteness, the light must have been electric. We kept quiet inside a cave that must have been several miles high. Human words cannot describe the discoveries of those who have been deep into the earth. My imagination was powerless before such wonders. I felt surprised and quite scared at the same time. However, the soft salty air cheered me up. After many days in much narrower spaces, it was a great relief. “Ready to walk a little now?” asked my uncle. “Yes, certainly.” “Well, let us follow the shore then,” he said, and we began to explore. Soon, in front of us appeared a forest with trees like umbrellas. “Mushrooms!” said my uncle. And he was right! There were mushrooms in their thousands, and each was at least nine metres high. How excellent they were! “Wonderful!” cried my uncle. “Now look under your feet.” I hadn’t noticed the many bones under our feet as we walked. Suddenly I thought, if once these monsters lived here, might some still walk through these dark forests? I looked around nervously, but we were the only living beings in this underworld. Thankfully! Finally, we returned to the cave we had entered from, and I went to sleep with strange thoughts. Where did this underground sea end? Where would we go? —Adapted from A Journey to the Centre of the Earth 37．Which of the following pictures can we add to the story?

D．She sells special and stylish seashells by the seashore. 39．What is the RIGHT order of the story? Axel and his uncle saw many mushrooms. Axel slept with strange thoughts. Axel guessed that the light was electric. Axel’s uncle discovered a great sea. Axel and his uncle walked on the bones. A． B． C． D． 40．Why did Axel’s feelings change so many times during the journey? A．Because the underground world was too dark. B．Because he was unable to think in a clear way. C．Because he was so tired that he wanted to sleep. D．Because the journey was full of the unexpected.
