That’s because spring is the season of pollen allergies (花粉过敏)! Think of your immune system (免疫系统) as “soldiers” protecting your body. Usually, these soldiers keep you safe from things like viruses (病毒). However, sometimes they make a mistake and think pollen is also dangerous. Pollen helps plants spread and grow, but some people’s immune systems don’t fight it properly. This causes sneezing. These days, Beijing is experiencing lots of juniper (刺柏) pollen this spring. In order to cut down the amount of pollen, the government took action like cutting some flower branches. Climate change might be the “criminal”. Because the whole world is getting warmer, flowers come earlier and live longer, making the pollen season longer. A study shows that some countries in Europe also have this problem. And warmer weather brings more CO2. Plants use it as food to grow. It helps plants make more pollen. Also, more cars and factories let out gases (气体) that pollute the air. This pollution can stay with pollen, making allergies worse. Some pollution can even break pollen into small pieces that reach deep into our lungs , causing serious health problems. You might see new trees in your neighborhood. Plants from other places can change the types and amounts of pollen in the air. This can upset the local ecosystem (当地生态系统), sometimes causing more allergies. For example, ryegrass (黑麦草) from Europe causes spring allergies every year in Australia. 1．Why does our immune system fight pollen? A．Pollen is similar to a virus. B．It “sees” pollen as dangerous. C．Pollen is dangerous to our bodies. 2．What does the text say about how climate change affects the pollen season? A．It leads to a longer pollen season. B．It makes more plants produce pollen. C．It weakens people’s immunity to pollen. 3．What role do factories play in making allergies worse? A．They help pollen move faster. B．They cause the pollen to be polluted. C．They help pollen spread more widely. 4．What can we do to stop pollen allergies? ①Wear a mask         ②Cut some flower branches ③Take some allergy medicine    ④ Have some new plants from other places A．①②③ B．①②④ C．②③④ 5．What does the example of ryegrass show? A．What trees are good for the environment. B．How Australia has changed its spring allergies. C．How foreign plants can make a difference to spring allergies. 主题02 人与自我——成长 （24-25八年级下·江西省南昌市南昌县·期中） Passage 1 ①Are you under stress? Well, it is believed that everyone feels stress sometimes.

Fast-forward a few decades and now I’m the parent. My 5-year-old lives in a world where screens aren’t fixed pieces of furniture. You can’t even avoid them by going outside. Screens are not only in our pockets. They’re everywhere. The concerns have grown with the screens. In the past decade, we have heard that they will damage our mental health. Many of us feel more distracted by them, feeling guiltier and more tired as a result. The apps and websites we can access on our phones have also sparked widespread concern. Big tech companies are also good at making use of our need for social recognition, hooking us on likes, retweets and follower counts. Social media has created a culture of mass narcissism (自恋), which has led many to worry about the emotional stresses on teenagers. A quick online search brings up dozens of papers linking screen use or social media with harmful effects on mental health, including depression and suicide. Such statements are alarming. They are also widely believed, thanks to popular books like iGen by Jean Twenge, which claims that digital technology has ruined a generation. Yet, Amy Orben at the University of Oxford, who studies the impact of digital technology and social media in particular on mental health, holds different views. She claims that the underlying data can be used to tell different stories. She also spotted shortcomings in several large studies that claimed to show correlations (相关性) between the use of devices with screens and depression in users. Twenge stands by her own findings, pointing in turn to what she considers flaws in Orben’s research methods. For David Max, at Royal College of Child Health in London, the effect of screen time and social media use on mental health remains speculative. “We cannot regard social media overall as good or bad,” says David. “We don’t know whether in individual cases social media is not responsible,” he says. The explosion of mobile phone use has revolutionized our lives. I can download movies, write articles, communicate with my family and broadcast to the world all at the push of a button. Rather than impose constraints (限制), we should take a look at our use of screens and ask how they fit with the activities and lifestyle. Every new technology with widespread impact has given rise to new fears. So the best bet may simply be to ask yourself what level of screen use makes you and those around you happy and try to stick to it. If you find yourself overly addictive, don’t panic—and certainly don’t feel guilty. Nobody knows anything worth getting scared about. 1．According to the passage, people give likes, retweet or count followers to ________. A．share one’s lifestyles B．show respect for others C．seek social recognition D．relieve emotional stresses 2．The underlined word “speculative” probably means “________”. A．doubtful B．specific C．important D．abstract 3．What can be learned from the passage? A．Teenagers are more affected by screen use both physically and mentally. B．Orben claims it is far too early to blame screen use for ruining a generation. C．Big tech companies help to produce many research papers on mental health. D．Twenge mainly introduces the overall benefits of digital technology in her books. 4．The passage is written to ________. A．encourage readers to reduce the time of screen use B．share different opinions on the effects of screen use C．explain why screen use may have negative effects on people D．relieve people’s concerns and worries about the use of screens 主题03 人与自然——环境 （24-25八年级下·海南省澄迈县·期中） Passage 1 There was a car accident in the Heavy Snow.

More importantly, floods can be very dangerous to people’s lives as well. If a flood happens suddenly without getting prepared, people may have no way to run. The weather report helps people prepare for heavy rain and floods, people try to protect their things by putting sandbags (沙袋) in front of their doors to stop water from coming into their homes. Floods are more likely to come to lower places, so people living in lower areas or near rivers are more likely to be in danger. If the heavy rain is reported early, these areas will be saved before the floods arrive. Some scientists say that because of global warming (全球变暖), more places may have heavy rain and floods, because it’s difficult to stop the floods, scientists spend time on ways of finding them earlier so that people can run away quickly. Floods can happen quickly in many parts of the world. We need to prepare earlier and act quickly before they begin. So how can we face floods? First, stay away from water. Then, get to higher ground during the floods. Finally, go back home carefully. There could be something dangerous in the dirty water that washes into your room. Clean your home as soon as possible after the flood is gone. 1．What do people use to protect their homes from floods, according to the passage? A．Rocks. B．Sandbags. C．Wooden boards.

Passage 3 （24-25八年级下·浙江省杭州市丁荷（丁信）中学·期中） Focus on mental health At some point in life, many people suffer a mental disturbance (心理干扰). While most people get over it, for others it doesn’t go away easily. Oct 10 was World Mental Health Day. This year, the theme was “Young People and Mental Health in a Changing World”: The World Health Organization says that about 20% of children and teenagers around the world suffer from mental illness. It’s thought that the number of children and teenagers with mental illness around the world will increase by half by 2020. It will become one of the main reasons for illnesses and even death. In China, the picture isn’t bright, either. About 30 million Chinese children and teenagers under the age of 17, or 10% of children and teenagers in China, have a mental health challenge, reported China Daily. Also, according to China Daily, Chinese people don’t seek help for their mental problems. They fear that others will think less of them if they let people know that they are in trouble. Young people who don’t seek help for their condition may be creating problems for themselves in the future. Jagannath Lamichhane, a mental health expert in Nepal (尼泊尔), warned that. “If we hide our mental health, it may remain a problem forever.” “My message for young people is, if you feel something is wrong within you—seek help,” he told NPR. 1．About ________ of children and teenagers suffer from mental illness in the world.

A．Children and teenagers who suffer a mental disturbance. B．Forgetting mental problems. C．How to deal with bullying. D．How to be healthy and eat well. （24-25八年级下·广东省江门市开平市苍江中学·期中） Passage 4 We all need sleep. Enough sleep is good for us. But for some people, they don’t get enough sleep. For Chen Danhong, an engineer in a technology company, the day really just begins after about 8 pm. “When I get home, I always feel tired. But I’m suddenly full of excitement when I go on the Internet, read books or watch movies. I play video games and always say to myself, ‘OK, this is the last time.’ Before I know it, it’s 2 o’clock. It’s the same as watching TV. Before I know it, it’s 4 o’clock.” For Chen, doing other things during sleeping time has become a way of life. Chen said, “I know that it’s detrimental. I would have health problems if things go on like this. But I just can’t help doing it.” What Chen is experiencing is called unforced sleeplessness (非强迫性失眠). The word comes from tennis and means some unforced mistakes. Common symptoms (症状) include (包括) falling asleep after 2 am. More and more young people in cities have such symptoms. According to the China Sleep Research Association, the reasons for them are long-time working, heavy pressure and nervous feelings. Sleep is very important. When you have these symptoms, you should try to change your mind and make sure you have enough sleeping time. 1．Why does Chen Danhong’s day really begin after about 8 pm? A．He is tired. B．He is excited. C．He is sleeping. D．He is going swimming. 2．When may Chen Danhong fall asleep? A．At 1 am. B．At 4 am. C．At 8 pm.

If you’re an artist, you keep making art. And if you have never considered yourself an artist, now it is time to take up an artistic hobby such as drawing or painting. It is never too late to start. Everyone can do it. If you can hold a brush or crayon, you can create art. Creating art heals (治愈) not only the mind and spirit but also the body since all of these are connected. As you draw or paint, your breathing slows, your blood pressure lowers, and your mind lets go of daily problems. This slowing down allows you to fully experience the moment. The process not only relaxes you but also brings a feeling of joy, increasing your energy and enthusiasm for life. Making art also allows you to play, freeing you to find out and try out new materials and methods. It also lets you express pleasure by seeing beauty where others may not. Creating art provides you with a special chance to express your anger or upset, as well as your personal ideas. Although the process of making art is the most important part, your finished product is important too. Your painting or drawing will remind you of the lessons you learned while making it, and you may feel energetic just by looking at it. If you don’t know how to begin, here are some ways to start creating art. If possible, set aside a small table with your brushes and watercolors so you can get creative whenever you get inspiration (灵感). Without thinking much about it, just choose colors that you like and start painting with them, or cut pictures with those colors out of magazines and glue them down, combining (结合) them with paints. The act of enjoying the colors and working on the color combinations will give you something to focus on instead of the stresses of your daily life. 根据语篇内容选择最佳答案。 1．What can you learn about making art from Paragraph 2 and 3? A．It is good for our health. B．It causes high blood pressure. C．It helps us solve daily problems. 2．What does the underlined word “enthusiasm” in Chinese in Paragraph 2? A．力量 B．期待 C．热情 3．Which of the following is NOT true about how to start making art? A．You must be very careful while choosing colors. B．You can begin painting whenever you get inspiration. C．You can get brushes and watercolors for preparation. 4．What’s the writer’s purpose of writing the passage? A．To tell us how to be an artist. B．To introduce the history of art. C．To encourage us to make art. 5．What’s the structure of the passage? A． B． C． 主题02 人与自我——成长 （24-25八年级下·河南省南阳市南召县·期中） Passage 1 If you choose correct life habits, you will improve the quality (品质) of your life. Here are some examples for you. Eat vegetables. Always eat vegetables. There are many kinds of vegetables, so keep on trying different ones until you find out which ones you like. Once you have found out, be sure to eat them every meal, not just at lunch. Cook at home. When you cook at home, you have 100 percent control over both what kind of food you eat, and how much you eat. When you go to a restaurant, you can’t control any of these. And also cooking at home is healthier. Walk, run or ride a bike. The next time you want to go somewhere, leave your car keys at home. Take a walk, a run, or ride the bike-in addition to (除了……之外) being healthy, it feels great to get outside and be active. Sleep for 8 hours. This one is important! Sleeping for 8 hours a night keeps us full of energy and ready to start the day. When we get less than 8 hours of rest we lose concentration (专注). If you’ve had enough sleep, you will find that you’re able to do more in less time. If you are going to be healthy, then you must keep great healthy habits. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 1．How many suggestions does the writer give us? A．One. B．Two. C．Three.

Big storms like this are happening more often and are getting stronger. So, meteorologists (气象学家) are working hard to predict them. AI is playing an important role in this work. ②For years, meteorologists have used computers to make models of storms. They use information from planes and satellites (人造卫星). It takes those models hours to create predictions. But AI models use lots of data (数据) from past storms to find patterns (模式). They can find rules that most humans can’t. And they can do this very quickly. This year, AI models made accurate (精确的) predictions about storms in just seconds, sometimes even days before they happened. ③One AI program called GraphCast correctly predicted that Hurricane Beryl would hit Texas on July 8th, while a traditional model predicted it would hit Mexico. GraphCast was right, and the team behind it won an engineering prize. ④In September, another AI program called AIFS predicted the path of Hurricane Francine as it hit Louisiana. Because it was so accurate, Matt Lanza, a meteorologist in Houston, Texas, told people in Texas that the storm wouldn’t be a problem for them. “It was really amazing,” Lanza said. ⑤Even though AI is helpful and has made significant successes, it’s still not good enough. Lanza said that AI models have trouble predicting how strong a storm will be and how much rain will fall. That’s why meteorologists need to use AI along with other tools. “We’re not just letting AI make the forecasts,” he said. 1．How are AI models different from traditional models according to Paragraph 2? A．AI models are faster at creating predictions. B．AI models need information only from satellites C．AI models need more data to make predictions. D．It takes longer for AI models to give more accurate results. 2．What does the underlined word “significant” in Paragraph 5 mean? A．Very famous. B．Very similar. C．Very common. D．Very important. 3．How will the future use of AI in weather prediction be? A．It won’t get any better than it is now. B．It will be more accurate but still need help from humans. C．It will do all the work and take human meteorologists’ place. D．It will only be used for predicting hurricanes, not other weather events. 4．What would be the best structure of the passage? A．①②③/④/⑤ B．①/②③/④⑤ C．①/②/③④/⑤ D．①②/③/④⑤ 主题03 人与自然——环境 （24-25八年级下·贵州省遵义市红花岗区·期中） Passage 1 Yesterday I had one of the most terrible experiences of my life. A storm woke me up early. I got up and looked out of the window of our hotel. I listened to the thunder (雷声) and watched the lightning (闪电). It wasn’t scary at that time— it was exciting! But then I looked at my phone and saw the news that a hurricane (飓风) was coming. I asked my dad what a hurricane was and asked him if he knew what to do. He told me not to worry because a hurricane was just a big storm. We stayed in our hotel room and by the afternoon, there was even more rain. And the winds were getting stronger and stronger. In the evening, a hotel worker asked all the visitors to go to the dining hall. When we were all inside, we put tables in front of the doors and then we got down on the floor together in the corner. We waited and waited. The winds got louder, the rain became heavier and then it suddenly went dark. I was so scared that I held my dad’s hand. We stayed there for a long time.

This shows how important earthquake safety (安全) is. Here are some useful tips. ● During an Earthquake Indoors: When you feel the shaking, quickly drop to the floor, cover your head. Hide under a strong table and stay away from windows, mirrors, and heavy furniture (家具) that could fall. If there’s no safe place nearby, sit by a wall and protect your head and neck. In tall buildings, use the stairs (楼梯) instead of the elevator (电梯). Outdoors: Run to an open place away from buildings, trees, and power lines. Don’t stay near streetlights and signs that might fall down. The safest place has nothing above you. ● After an Earthquake Turn off things: If you smell gas (燃气), open windows and doors and turn off the gas if it’s safe. Use flashlights instead of matches or lighters. Get an emergency (应急的) bag ready: Put food, water, a flashlight, and a first-aid box in it. It may not only save your life, but also the lives of others. Stay away from damaged (受损的) buildings: Aftershocks may come after the big earthquake. And they can make broken buildings more dangerous, so stay away. Help others: Only help when you’re safe. Don’t move people who are badly hurt unless they’re in great danger.

Unlike common seas that teem with fish and sea plants, it has almost no living things. This is why its name the “Dead Sea” comes from. Geographically, it is located between Jordan (约旦) and Israel (以色列), in the dry part of the Middle East. It’s surrounded by rocky hills. That adds to its unique landscape. Covering an area of about 605 square kilometers, the Dead Sea’s size isn’t always the same. It changes slightly each year. This is mainly because of changes in rainfall; less rain means less water flowing into the sea. And also because towns and farms near it need more and more water. It is about 1,000 feet (英尺) deep. The deepest part of the Dead Sea is about 1,300 feet, making it one of the deepest salty lakes in the world. The Dead Sea has a high salt level, about 8 times saltier than the ocean. This high salt content (高盐分含量) creates strong buoyancy (浮力), letting people float (漂浮) easily on its surface even if they can’t swim. For many years, this special character has attracted millions of visitors from all over the world. Some come to experience the fun of floating. Sadly, the Dead Sea is facing a big problem: It is becoming smaller and smaller. Every year, its surface level drops a little. Protecting this natural wonder has become more important than ever. 1．Where is the Dead Sea located? A．Between Jordan and Israel. B．Between China and Japan. C．Between Canada and the US. D．Between France and Germany. 2．What is the size of the Dead Sea covering? A．About 605 square kilometers. B．About 1,000 square kilometers. C．About 1,300 square kilometers. D．About 1,500 square kilometers. 3．Why can people float easily on the Dead Sea? A．Because it kills people. B．Because it holds dead people. C．Because it has many plants in the water. D．Because it has a surprisingly high salt level. 4．Why do many visitors come to the Dead Sea? A．To fish in its water. B．To grow plants. C．To float and relax. D．To protect the Dead Sea. 5．What is the best title for the passage? A．The location of the Dead Sea B．The reasons for people floating C．The ways to protect the Dead Sea D．Knowing about the Dead Sea 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 $ 专题01 阅读理解 主题01 人与自我——健康 （24-25八年级下·浙江金华义务丹溪中学·期中） Passage 1 1．At what age do people usually fall out their baby teeth?

That’s because spring is the season of pollen allergies (花粉过敏)! Think of your immune system (免疫系统) as “soldiers” protecting your body. Usually, these soldiers keep you safe from things like viruses (病毒). However, sometimes they make a mistake and think pollen is also dangerous. Pollen helps plants spread and grow, but some people’s immune systems don’t fight it properly. This causes sneezing. These days, Beijing is experiencing lots of juniper (刺柏) pollen this spring. In order to cut down the amount of pollen, the government took action like cutting some flower branches. Climate change might be the “criminal”. Because the whole world is getting warmer, flowers come earlier and live longer, making the pollen season longer. A study shows that some countries in Europe also have this problem. And warmer weather brings more CO2. Plants use it as food to grow. It helps plants make more pollen. Also, more cars and factories let out gases (气体) that pollute the air. This pollution can stay with pollen, making allergies worse. Some pollution can even break pollen into small pieces that reach deep into our lungs , causing serious health problems. You might see new trees in your neighborhood. Plants from other places can change the types and amounts of pollen in the air. This can upset the local ecosystem (当地生态系统), sometimes causing more allergies. For example, ryegrass (黑麦草) from Europe causes spring allergies every year in Australia. 1．Why does our immune system fight pollen? A．Pollen is similar to a virus. B．It “sees” pollen as dangerous. C．Pollen is dangerous to our bodies. 2．What does the text say about how climate change affects the pollen season? A．It leads to a longer pollen season. B．It makes more plants produce pollen. C．It weakens people’s immunity to pollen. 3．What role do factories play in making allergies worse? A．They help pollen move faster. B．They cause the pollen to be polluted. C．They help pollen spread more widely. 4．What can we do to stop pollen allergies? ①Wear a mask         ②Cut some flower branches ③Take some allergy medicine    ④ Have some new plants from other places A．①②③ B．①②④ C．②③④ 5．What does the example of ryegrass show? A．What trees are good for the environment. B．How Australia has changed its spring allergies. C．How foreign plants can make a difference to spring allergies. 【答案】1．B 2．A 3．B 4．A 5．C 【解析】本文分析春季花粉过敏的成因，指出气候变暖、空气污染和外来植物加剧了过敏问题，并简要提及应对措施。 1．细节理解题。根据“Usually, these soldiers keep you safe from things like viruses (病毒). However, sometimes they make a mistake and think pollen is also dangerous.”可知，我们的免疫系统会对抗花粉，因为我们的免疫系统误将花粉视为危险物质。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据“Because the whole world is getting warmer, flowers come earlier and live longer, making the pollen season longer.”可知，气候变暖使得花粉季节更长。故选A。 3．细节理解题。根据“This pollution can stay with pollen, making allergies worse. Some pollution can even break pollen into small pieces that reach deep into our lungs, causing serious health problems.”可知，工厂排放的气体与花粉结合，加剧过敏。故选B。 4．细节理解题。根据“sometimes people need to take some medicine to stop it”“the government took action like cutting some flower branches.”可知，可以通过修剪花枝、服药来阻止花粉过敏，结合常识可知，戴口罩也可以阻止花粉过敏。故选A。 5．细节理解题。根据最后一段内容可知，本段以黑麦草为例说明外来植物改变当地花粉类型，从而引发过敏。故选C。 主题02 人与自我——成长 （24-25八年级下·江西省南昌市南昌县·期中） Passage 1 ①Are you under stress?

I ignored her, of course. Fast-forward a few decades and now I’m the parent. My 5-year-old lives in a world where screens aren’t fixed pieces of furniture. You can’t even avoid them by going outside. Screens are not only in our pockets. They’re everywhere. The concerns have grown with the screens. In the past decade, we have heard that they will damage our mental health. Many of us feel more distracted by them, feeling guiltier and more tired as a result. The apps and websites we can access on our phones have also sparked widespread concern. Big tech companies are also good at making use of our need for social recognition, hooking us on likes, retweets and follower counts. Social media has created a culture of mass narcissism (自恋), which has led many to worry about the emotional stresses on teenagers. A quick online search brings up dozens of papers linking screen use or social media with harmful effects on mental health, including depression and suicide. Such statements are alarming. They are also widely believed, thanks to popular books like iGen by Jean Twenge, which claims that digital technology has ruined a generation. Yet, Amy Orben at the University of Oxford, who studies the impact of digital technology and social media in particular on mental health, holds different views. She claims that the underlying data can be used to tell different stories. She also spotted shortcomings in several large studies that claimed to show correlations (相关性) between the use of devices with screens and depression in users. Twenge stands by her own findings, pointing in turn to what she considers flaws in Orben’s research methods. For David Max, at Royal College of Child Health in London, the effect of screen time and social media use on mental health remains speculative. “We cannot regard social media overall as good or bad,” says David. “We don’t know whether in individual cases social media is not responsible,” he says. The explosion of mobile phone use has revolutionized our lives. I can download movies, write articles, communicate with my family and broadcast to the world all at the push of a button. Rather than impose constraints (限制), we should take a look at our use of screens and ask how they fit with the activities and lifestyle. Every new technology with widespread impact has given rise to new fears. So the best bet may simply be to ask yourself what level of screen use makes you and those around you happy and try to stick to it. If you find yourself overly addictive, don’t panic—and certainly don’t feel guilty. Nobody knows anything worth getting scared about. 1．According to the passage, people give likes, retweet or count followers to ________. A．share one’s lifestyles B．show respect for others C．seek social recognition D．relieve emotional stresses 2．The underlined word “speculative” probably means “________”. A．doubtful B．specific C．important D．abstract 3．What can be learned from the passage? A．Teenagers are more affected by screen use both physically and mentally. B．Orben claims it is far too early to blame screen use for ruining a generation. C．Big tech companies help to produce many research papers on mental health. D．Twenge mainly introduces the overall benefits of digital technology in her books. 4．The passage is written to ________. A．encourage readers to reduce the time of screen use B．share different opinions on the effects of screen use C．explain why screen use may have negative effects on people D．relieve people’s concerns and worries about the use of screens 【答案】1．C 2．A 3．B 4．D 【解析】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了屏幕使用对心理健康的影响，特别是社交媒体的影响，并缓解人们对屏幕使用的担忧。 1．细节理解题。根据“Big tech companies are also good at making use of our need for social recognition, hooking us on likes, retweets and follower counts.”可知，人们点赞和计算粉丝数是为了寻求社会认同。故选C。 2．词句猜测题。根据“We cannot regard social media overall as good or bad,”和“Rather than impose constraints (限制), we should take a look at our use of screens and ask how they fit with the activities and lifestyle.”可知，目前对于屏幕时间和社交媒体使用对心理健康的影响仍是有疑问的，所以speculative在此处指的是“值得怀疑的”。故选A。 3．推理判断题。根据“which claims that digital technology has ruined a generation. Yet, Amy Orben at the University of Oxford, who studies the impact of digital technology and social media in particular on mental health, holds different views. She claims that the underlying data can be used to tell different stories.”可知，Orben认为目前的数据不足以证明屏幕使用对一代人造成了伤害。故选B。 4．主旨大意题。根据“Every new technology with widespread impact has given rise to new fears. So the best bet may simply be to ask yourself what level of screen use makes you and those around you happy and try to stick to it. If you find yourself overly addictive, don’t panic-and certainly don’t feel guilty. Nobody knows anything worth getting scared about.”可知，每一项具有广泛影响力的新技术都引发了新的担忧。所以，最好的方法可能就是问问自己，什么程度的屏幕使用会让你和周围的人感到快乐，并努力坚持下去。如果你发现自己无法停止，不要焦虑，当然也不要感到内疚。没有人知道有什么值得害怕的。所以这篇文章的目的是缓解人们对屏幕使用的担忧。故选D。 主题03 人与自然——环境 （24-25八年级下·海南省澄迈县·期中） Passage 1 There was a car accident in the Heavy Snow.

Too much water can cause damage (损害) to homes and roads and can even wash cars away. More importantly, floods can be very dangerous to people’s lives as well. If a flood happens suddenly without getting prepared, people may have no way to run. The weather report helps people prepare for heavy rain and floods, people try to protect their things by putting sandbags (沙袋) in front of their doors to stop water from coming into their homes. Floods are more likely to come to lower places, so people living in lower areas or near rivers are more likely to be in danger. If the heavy rain is reported early, these areas will be saved before the floods arrive. Some scientists say that because of global warming (全球变暖), more places may have heavy rain and floods, because it’s difficult to stop the floods, scientists spend time on ways of finding them earlier so that people can run away quickly. Floods can happen quickly in many parts of the world. We need to prepare earlier and act quickly before they begin. So how can we face floods? First, stay away from water. Then, get to higher ground during the floods. Finally, go back home carefully. There could be something dangerous in the dirty water that washes into your room. Clean your home as soon as possible after the flood is gone. 1．What do people use to protect their homes from floods, according to the passage? A．Rocks. B．Sandbags. C．Wooden boards. D．Boats. 2．The underlined word “them” in Paragraph 3 refers to ________. A．the scientists B．the rain C．the floods D．the ways 3．What does the last paragraph mainly talk about? A．The damage caused by floods. B．The cause of floods. C．Scientists’ study of floods. D．Ways to face floods. 4．Which statement is NOT true? A．Floods often happen after or during heavy rain. B．Floods can be very dangerous to people’s lives as well. C．It’s easy to stop the floods. D．We need to prepare earlier and act quickly before floods begin. 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．D 4．C 【解析】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了洪水的危害、预防措施以及应对方法。 1．细节理解题。根据文章第2段“people try to protect their things by putting sandbags in front of their doors to stop water from coming into their homes”可知，人们用沙袋挡在门前防止洪水进入家中。故选B。 2．词句猜测题。根据文章第3段“scientists spend time on ways of finding them earlier so that people can run away quickly”中的“them”指代前文提到的“floods”，因为科学家致力于更早发现洪水，以便人们快速逃离。故选C。 3．主旨大意题。文章最后一段主要介绍了应对洪水的具体方法，如远离洪水、前往高处、洪水退去后小心清理家中等。故选D。 4．细节理解题。根据文章第3段“it’s difficult to stop the floods”可知，阻止洪水很困难，而选项C“It’s easy to stop the floods”与此矛盾。故选C。 （24-25八年级下·广东省东莞市清溪中学·期中） Passage 5 Strong Xizang earthquake: What we know Source: Xinhua   Editor: Huaxia  2025-01-07 18:55:16                                LHASA Jan. 7th (Xinhua)—A strong earthquake of level 6.8 (6.8级地震) happened in China’s Xizang at 9:05 a.m. Tuesday (Beijing Time).

While most people get over it, for others it doesn’t go away easily. Oct 10 was World Mental Health Day. This year, the theme was “Young People and Mental Health in a Changing World”: The World Health Organization says that about 20% of children and teenagers around the world suffer from mental illness. It’s thought that the number of children and teenagers with mental illness around the world will increase by half by 2020. It will become one of the main reasons for illnesses and even death. In China, the picture isn’t bright, either. About 30 million Chinese children and teenagers under the age of 17, or 10% of children and teenagers in China, have a mental health challenge, reported China Daily. Also, according to China Daily, Chinese people don’t seek help for their mental problems. They fear that others will think less of them if they let people know that they are in trouble. Young people who don’t seek help for their condition may be creating problems for themselves in the future. Jagannath Lamichhane, a mental health expert in Nepal (尼泊尔), warned that. “If we hide our mental health, it may remain a problem forever.” “My message for young people is, if you feel something is wrong within you—seek help,” he told NPR. 1．About ________ of children and teenagers suffer from mental illness in the world.

D．How to be healthy and eat well. 【答案】1．C 2．D 3．B 4．A 【解析】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了全球及中国青少年心理健康问题的现状，并呼吁人们重视心理健康问题。 1．细节理解题。根据文章第2段“The World Health Organization says that about 20% of children and teenagers around the world suffer from mental illness.”可知，世界卫生组织表示，全球约20%的儿童和青少年患有心理疾病。故选C。 2．词句猜测题。根据文章第3段“About 30 million Chinese children and teenagers under the age of 17, or 10% of children and teenagers in China, have a mental health challenge, reported China Daily.”可知，中国约3000万17岁以下的中国青少年面临心理健康挑战。由此可知，在中国情况也不乐观。“the picture isn’t bright”指中国的心理健康形势严峻。故选D。 3．推理判断题。根据文章第4段尼泊尔心理健康专家Jagannath Lamichhane的警告“If we hide our mental health, it may remain a problem forever.”可知，如果我们隐瞒心理健康问题，它可能会永远存在。由此可知，他主张不要隐藏心理问题。故选B。 4．主旨大意题。全文围绕青少年心理健康问题展开，包括全球数据、中国现状及专家呼吁，选项A“遭受心理困扰的儿童和青少年”最贴合主题。故选A。 （24-25八年级下·广东省江门市开平市苍江中学·期中） Passage 4 We all need sleep. Enough sleep is good for us. But for some people, they don’t get enough sleep. For Chen Danhong, an engineer in a technology company, the day really just begins after about 8 pm. “When I get home, I always feel tired. But I’m suddenly full of excitement when I go on the Internet, read books or watch movies. I play video games and always say to myself, ‘OK, this is the last time.’ Before I know it, it’s 2 o’clock. It’s the same as watching TV. Before I know it, it’s 4 o’clock.” For Chen, doing other things during sleeping time has become a way of life. Chen said, “I know that it’s detrimental. I would have health problems if things go on like this. But I just can’t help doing it.” What Chen is experiencing is called unforced sleeplessness (非强迫性失眠). The word comes from tennis and means some unforced mistakes. Common symptoms (症状) include (包括) falling asleep after 2 am. More and more young people in cities have such symptoms. According to the China Sleep Research Association, the reasons for them are long-time working, heavy pressure and nervous feelings. Sleep is very important. When you have these symptoms, you should try to change your mind and make sure you have enough sleeping time. 1．Why does Chen Danhong’s day really begin after about 8 pm? A．He is tired. B．He is excited. C．He is sleeping. D．He is going swimming. 2．When may Chen Danhong fall asleep? A．At 1 am. B．At 4 am. C．At 8 pm. D．At 11 pm. 3．What does the underlined word “detrimental” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A．Helpful. B．Fantastic. C．Strange. D．Harmful. 4．Which is the correct structure of the passage?

A．The Ways to Sleep Well B．The Best Time to Sleep C．The Problems about Sleeping D．The Reasons for Sleeplessness 【答案】1．B 2．B 3．D 4．A 5．C 【解析】本文主要讲述了现代人尤其是城市年轻人面临的非强迫性失眠问题，以工程师陈丹红为例说明其症状和原因，并强调睡眠的重要性。 1．推理判断题。根据“For Chen Danhong, an engineer in a technology company, the day really just begins after about 8 pm. ‘When I get home, I always feel tired. But I’m suddenly full of excitement when I go on the Internet, read books or watch movies...’”可知，他回到家时感到疲惫，但上网、看书或看电影时会突然充满兴奋，因此夜晚成为他活跃的开始，即他的“一天”才真正开始。故选B。 2．推理判断题。根据“It’s the same as watching TV. Before I know it, it’s 4 o’clock.”可知，陈丹红可能在凌晨4点才入睡。故选B。 3．词义猜测题。根据“I know that it’s detrimental. I would have health problems if things go on like this.”可知，如果继续这样，可能会出现健康问题，由此可推知“detrimental”是贬义词，结合选项，应与harmful近义，意为“有害的”。故选D。 4．篇章结构题。第1段引入主题（睡眠的重要性）；第2—4段具体描述陈丹红的案例和非强迫性失眠的现象；第5段总结（呼吁改变）。结构为①/②③④/⑤。故选A。 5．最佳标题题。全文围绕年轻人因工作压力导致的睡眠问题展开，选项C“睡眠问题”最贴合主旨，为最佳标题。故选C。 （24-25八年级下·黑龙江省齐齐哈尔市建华区第二十一中学校·期中） Passage 5 What can you do to help yourself get out of stress or worry? If you’re an artist, you keep making art. And if you have never considered yourself an artist, now it is time to take up an artistic hobby such as drawing or painting. It is never too late to start. Everyone can do it. If you can hold a brush or crayon, you can create art. Creating art heals (治愈) not only the mind and spirit but also the body since all of these are connected. As you draw or paint, your breathing slows, your blood pressure lowers, and your mind lets go of daily problems. This slowing down allows you to fully experience the moment. The process not only relaxes you but also brings a feeling of joy, increasing your energy and enthusiasm for life. Making art also allows you to play, freeing you to find out and try out new materials and methods. It also lets you express pleasure by seeing beauty where others may not. Creating art provides you with a special chance to express your anger or upset, as well as your personal ideas. Although the process of making art is the most important part, your finished product is important too. Your painting or drawing will remind you of the lessons you learned while making it, and you may feel energetic just by looking at it. If you don’t know how to begin, here are some ways to start creating art. If possible, set aside a small table with your brushes and watercolors so you can get creative whenever you get inspiration (灵感). Without thinking much about it, just choose colors that you like and start painting with them, or cut pictures with those colors out of magazines and glue them down, combining (结合) them with paints. The act of enjoying the colors and working on the color combinations will give you something to focus on instead of the stresses of your daily life. 根据语篇内容选择最佳答案。 1．What can you learn about making art from Paragraph 2 and 3? A．It is good for our health. B．It causes high blood pressure. C．It helps us solve daily problems. 2．What does the underlined word “enthusiasm” in Chinese in Paragraph 2? A．力量 B．期待 C．热情 3．Which of the following is NOT true about how to start making art? A．You must be very careful while choosing colors. B．You can begin painting whenever you get inspiration.

Here are some examples for you. Eat vegetables. Always eat vegetables. There are many kinds of vegetables, so keep on trying different ones until you find out which ones you like. Once you have found out, be sure to eat them every meal, not just at lunch. Cook at home. When you cook at home, you have 100 percent control over both what kind of food you eat, and how much you eat. When you go to a restaurant, you can’t control any of these. And also cooking at home is healthier. Walk, run or ride a bike. The next time you want to go somewhere, leave your car keys at home. Take a walk, a run, or ride the bike-in addition to (除了……之外) being healthy, it feels great to get outside and be active. Sleep for 8 hours. This one is important! Sleeping for 8 hours a night keeps us full of energy and ready to start the day. When we get less than 8 hours of rest we lose concentration (专注). If you’ve had enough sleep, you will find that you’re able to do more in less time. If you are going to be healthy, then you must keep great healthy habits. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 1．How many suggestions does the writer give us? A．One. B．Two. C．Three. D．Four. 2．To keep healthy, we must eat vegetables ________. A．every meal B．at breakfast C．at lunch D．at dinner 3．You can do all the following things when you cook at home EXCEPT ________. A．being healthier B．saving time C．controlling how much you eat D．controlling what kind of food you eat 4．Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage? A．It feels good to walk or run or ride a bike outside.

A．An art book. B．An ad (广告). C．A health newspaper. D．A storybook. 【答案】1．D 2．A 3．B 4．B 5．C 【解析】本文讲述了选择正确的生活习惯可提升生活品质，并给出了吃蔬菜、在家做饭、走路/跑步/骑车、睡8小时这些健康生活习惯的建议。 1．细节理解题。文章分别从“Eat vegetables.”，“Cook at home.”，“Walk, run or ride a bike.”，“Sleep for 8 hours.”给出建议，共四条。根据文中呈现的这四个建议内容，可知作者给了四条建议，故选D。 2．细节理解题。文中提到“Always eat vegetables. …Once you have found out, be sure to eat them every meal, not just at lunch.”，即要每一顿饭都吃蔬菜，不是只在早餐、午餐或晚餐。根据该句表述，可知，是为保持健康，蔬菜要每顿吃，故选A。 3．细节理解题。文中说“When you cook at home, you have 100 percent control over both what kind of food you eat, and how much you eat. …also cooking at home is healthier.”，提到了能控制吃什么、吃多少以及更健康，没提及节省时间。根据对在家做饭相关内容的描述，可知在家做饭不能做到的是节省时间，故选B。 4．推理判断题。文中的句子“Sleeping for 8 hours a night keeps us full of energy and ready to start the day. When we get less than 8 hours of rest we lose concentration (专注).” ，说明睡眠不足8小时会影响专注度，并非能节省时间做更多工作，所以选项B“睡5个小时可以节省出时间来做许多工作”错误，故选B。 5．推理判断题。文章围绕健康生活习惯给出建议，和健康相关。选项C“健康报纸”符合主题。故选C。 （24-25八年级下·浙江省杭州市滨江区竺可桢学校教育集团·期中） Passage 2 ①On October 9th, Hurricane Milton became the fifth hurricane to hit the United States in 2024. Big storms like this are happening more often and are getting stronger. So, meteorologists (气象学家) are working hard to predict them. AI is playing an important role in this work. ②For years, meteorologists have used computers to make models of storms. They use information from planes and satellites (人造卫星). It takes those models hours to create predictions. But AI models use lots of data (数据) from past storms to find patterns (模式). They can find rules that most humans can’t. And they can do this very quickly. This year, AI models made accurate (精确的) predictions about storms in just seconds, sometimes even days before they happened. ③One AI program called GraphCast correctly predicted that Hurricane Beryl would hit Texas on July 8th, while a traditional model predicted it would hit Mexico. GraphCast was right, and the team behind it won an engineering prize. ④In September, another AI program called AIFS predicted the path of Hurricane Francine as it hit Louisiana. Because it was so accurate, Matt Lanza, a meteorologist in Houston, Texas, told people in Texas that the storm wouldn’t be a problem for them. “It was really amazing,” Lanza said. ⑤Even though AI is helpful and has made significant successes, it’s still not good enough. Lanza said that AI models have trouble predicting how strong a storm will be and how much rain will fall. That’s why meteorologists need to use AI along with other tools. “We’re not just letting AI make the forecasts,” he said. 1．How are AI models different from traditional models according to Paragraph 2? A．AI models are faster at creating predictions. B．AI models need information only from satellites C．AI models need more data to make predictions. D．It takes longer for AI models to give more accurate results. 2．What does the underlined word “significant” in Paragraph 5 mean? A．Very famous. B．Very similar. C．Very common. D．Very important. 3．How will the future use of AI in weather prediction be? A．It won’t get any better than it is now. B．It will be more accurate but still need help from humans. C．It will do all the work and take human meteorologists’ place. D．It will only be used for predicting hurricanes, not other weather events. 4．What would be the best structure of the passage? A．①②③/④/⑤ B．①/②③/④⑤ C．①/②/③④/⑤ D．①②/③/④⑤ 【答案】1．A 2．D 3．B 4．C 【解析】本文主要讲述了人工智能在天气预报中的应用。 1．细节理解题。根据“But AI models use lots of data (数据) from past storms to find patterns (模式). They can find rules that most humans can’t. And they can do this very quickly. This year, AI models made accurate (精确的) predictions about storms in just seconds, sometimes even days before they happened.”可知，人工智能模型在预测方面更快。故选A。 2．词句猜测题。根据“Even though AI is helpful and has made significant successes, it’s still not good enough.”可知，尽管人工智能很有帮助，并取得了重大成功，但它仍然不够好。这里significant的意思是“重大的、重要的”。故选D。 3．细节理解题。根据“Lanza said that AI models have trouble predicting how strong a storm will be and how much rain will fall. That’s why meteorologists need to use AI along with other tools. ‘We’re not just letting AI make the forecasts,’ he said.”可知，人工智能将更准确，但仍需要人类的帮助。故选B。 4．篇章结构题。根据全文可知。第一段是通过一个例子来引出话题；第二段主要介绍了人工智能在天气预报中的应用；第三段和第四段主要介绍了两个人工智能程序；第五段介绍了人工智能的不足之处。故选C。 主题03 人与自然——环境 （24-25八年级下·贵州省遵义市红花岗区·期中） Passage 1 Yesterday I had one of the most terrible experiences of my life.

This shows how important earthquake safety (安全) is. Here are some useful tips. ● During an Earthquake Indoors: When you feel the shaking, quickly drop to the floor, cover your head. Hide under a strong table and stay away from windows, mirrors, and heavy furniture (家具) that could fall. If there’s no safe place nearby, sit by a wall and protect your head and neck. In tall buildings, use the stairs (楼梯) instead of the elevator (电梯). Outdoors: Run to an open place away from buildings, trees, and power lines. Don’t stay near streetlights and signs that might fall down. The safest place has nothing above you. ● After an Earthquake Turn off things: If you smell gas (燃气), open windows and doors and turn off the gas if it’s safe. Use flashlights instead of matches or lighters. Get an emergency (应急的) bag ready: Put food, water, a flashlight, and a first-aid box in it. It may not only save your life, but also the lives of others. Stay away from damaged (受损的) buildings: Aftershocks may come after the big earthquake. And they can make broken buildings more dangerous, so stay away. Help others: Only help when you’re safe. Don’t move people who are badly hurt unless they’re in great danger.

Unlike common seas that teem with fish and sea plants, it has almost no living things. This is why its name the “Dead Sea” comes from. Geographically, it is located between Jordan (约旦) and Israel (以色列), in the dry part of the Middle East. It’s surrounded by rocky hills. That adds to its unique landscape. Covering an area of about 605 square kilometers, the Dead Sea’s size isn’t always the same. It changes slightly each year. This is mainly because of changes in rainfall; less rain means less water flowing into the sea. And also because towns and farms near it need more and more water. It is about 1,000 feet (英尺) deep. The deepest part of the Dead Sea is about 1,300 feet, making it one of the deepest salty lakes in the world. The Dead Sea has a high salt level, about 8 times saltier than the ocean. This high salt content (高盐分含量) creates strong buoyancy (浮力), letting people float (漂浮) easily on its surface even if they can’t swim. For many years, this special character has attracted millions of visitors from all over the world. Some come to experience the fun of floating. Sadly, the Dead Sea is facing a big problem: It is becoming smaller and smaller. Every year, its surface level drops a little. Protecting this natural wonder has become more important than ever. 1．Where is the Dead Sea located? A．Between Jordan and Israel. B．Between China and Japan. C．Between Canada and the US. D．Between France and Germany. 2．What is the size of the Dead Sea covering? A．About 605 square kilometers. B．About 1,000 square kilometers. C．About 1,300 square kilometers. D．About 1,500 square kilometers. 3．Why can people float easily on the Dead Sea? A．Because it kills people. B．Because it holds dead people. C．Because it has many plants in the water. D．Because it has a surprisingly high salt level. 4．Why do many visitors come to the Dead Sea? A．To fish in its water. B．To grow plants. C．To float and relax. D．To protect the Dead Sea. 5．What is the best title for the passage? A．The location of the Dead Sea B．The reasons for people floating C．The ways to protect the Dead Sea D．Knowing about the Dead Sea 【答案】1．A 2．A 3．D 4．C 5．D 【解析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了死海的地理位置、面积规模、高盐度的特点以及它目前面临的面积缩小问题，展现了这一自然奇观的独特之处与现状。 1．细节理解题。根据文中“Geographically, it is located between Jordan (约旦) and Israel (以色列), in the dry part of the Middle East.”可知，死海位于约旦和以色列之间。故选A。 2．细节理解题。根据文中“Covering an area of about 605 square kilometers, the Dead Sea’s size isn’t always the same.”可知，死海的面积约为605平方千米。故选A。 3．细节理解题。根据文中“The Dead Sea has a high salt level, about 8 times saltier than the ocean.
