How many times, for example, do you find yourself saying things like “I really don’t understand this maths problem”, or “I can’t get into the school team”? Well, maybe it’s time to introduce yourself to the power of “yet” By adding this simple word, you can change everything. “I really don’t understand this maths problem yet.” “I can’t get into the school team yet.”Suddenly, the impossible becomes possible. You can imagine those things happening. I read about a school that has changed the way it marks its students’ exams. The school finds out that the old “pass/fail system” wasn’t helping students’ motivation (积极性). If you passed, then great, but those students who didn’t pass often felt like failures. So now students who don’t pass the exams will not see a big red F on their papers, they see a “Not yet” instead. That way the students feel that they are on a journey. They haven’t reached the end, but they know that they are going the right way. This kind of thinking is part of what experts call “having a growth mindset”. People with a growth mindset don’t concentrate on failure. They aren’t worried by not getting things right the first time and are happy to keep trying until they do. They enjoy the challenge and believe they can change. In contrast, people who just fix their eyes on the failure have what the experts call “a fixed mindset”. These people are always worried about failure and are happy to give up when things don’t go right. They don’t think that they are able to change. Clearly, it is better to have a growth mindset than a fixed mindset. But don’t worry if you think that you have a fixed mindset. ★ . Remember that it all starts with questioning the things you believe about yourself. Stop believing that you can’t or you haven’t and realize that you just can’t or haven’t yet. Once you start doing this, you’ll wonder why you didn’t do it before. It’s one small but very powerful word. 1．The purpose of adding the word “yet” is to believe ________. A．everything is possible B．you are on a journey to your destination C．you are going to start to win D．you will never feel upset about your failures 2．(新考法) The example in Paragraph 2 is to ________. A．express a feeling B．describe a problem C．show the result D．support the topic 3．Which of the following can be put into ★ ? A．Experts will help you grow up healthily in mind. B．You can train yourself to develop a growth mindset. C．Everyone has his own advantages and disadvantages. D．You can change everything by adding the small word “yet”. 4．According to the passage, which one of the following has “a growth mindset”? A．Jack got an “A” in the exam. He was quite happy to tell his parents. B．David failed in a competition, but he stayed confident and kept trying. C．Jenny found it hard to work out the maths problem, so she gave it up. D．Emma was refused by school team. She didn’t want to have another try. 5．Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A．Small word, great power B．Two Different Mindsets C．Nothing Is Impossible D．On the Way to Success Passage 2 (24-25八下·湖北十堰竹溪县九年一贯制学校第一教联体·期中) Everyone worries. But how do you deal with (应付) your worries? Whether your worries are big or small, you can take these steps: Try to find out what you’re worried about Sometimes, you will know what you’re worried about. Sometimes, you might not find it out first; if you can’t, you can ask for help. Ask for help When you’re worried, it can help to find someone to talk to. You can ask your parents, friends or teachers for help. Think of ways to make it better There is always something you can do to help you feel less worried. Sitting there worrying is not helpful and it won’t solve your problem. Maybe you can think for yourselves, make a plan and try to make it. For example, grades at school are often top worries for kids. If you are worried about grades, ask yourself these questions: * Why are grades important? What do grades mean to me? * How do I get ready for class? Do I go over my notes even when there isn’t a test? * Do I have a good place to do my homework? * Have I tried different ways of studying? If your worry is about a fight you had with a friend, you might write down all the things you could do: write a note to him or her, invite him or her to a basketball game, say sorry to him or her. Once you have a list of these things and choose one of them, you can get your friend back. 6．How many steps of dealing with your worries are mentioned (提 及) in the passage? A．Two. B．Three. C．Four. D．Seven. 7．When you don’t know what you’re worried about, __________.

The night before, you spend a lot of time thinking about the possible mistakes you might make and whether you’re prepared enough. Well, you might be overthinking. Overthinking means going over the same thought again and again, analyzing (分析) the simplest situations or events too much. Overthinking comes from one of our primitive instincts (原始本能). The primitive mind will always see things in the worst possible light. Our brains are always looking for threats (威胁), to make a plan to deal with those threats and keep us safe. Some people believe that overthinking may be helpful because it helps us look at a problem from every possible angle (角度) and get ready for what might happen. However, research suggests that overthinking can make us stressed, anxious (焦虑的) and depressed(忧郁的). What’s more, overthinking might create problems with how you get along with others. As you think the worst, make incorrect guesses, or worry about every little thing others do and say, you might misunderstand their intentions (意图). So, instead of sitting and thinking about a problem again and again, you can distract (转移注意力) yourself for a bit. Your brain might find better ways to solve the problem while you’re doing something fun, like gardening (园艺), or even while you’re sleeping. Also, when you find yourself overthinking, challenge these thoughts. Ask yourself if they make sense and think about other possibilities. It can be hard at first, but recognizing that you are overthinking can help you make a change. 1．According to the passage, what is the result of overthinking? A．It improves problem-solving skills. B．It reduces stress levels. C．It leads to anxiety and poor decisions. D．It helps people sleep better. 2．What does the brain’s “primitive instinct” do, according to the passage? A．It encourages creative thinking. B．It focuses on finding threats. C．It helps people relax in difficult situations. D．It makes decisions quickly. 3．Which activity is suggested to stop overthinking? A．Doing something interesting. B．Challenging negative thoughts. C．Avoiding all social activities. D．Making longer to-do lists. 4．What can we infer (推断) about people who overthink? A．They never feel stressed. B．They may misunderstand others’ intentions. C．They always make perfect plans. D．They prefer to work alone. 5．What is the main idea of the passage? A．Overthinking is a useless habit. B．Overthinking has roots in human instincts but can be managed. C．Gardening is the best solution to stress. D．Modern life makes overthinking unavoidable. 主题01 人与自我——个人经历 Passage 1 (24-25八下·湖北宜城五校·期中) Huang Xuhua, the chief designer of China’s first-generation nuclear submarines, passed away at the age of 99 in Wuhan. His life was a story of dedication and hard work for China’s defense technology. Born in Guangdong in 1926, Huang grew up during war time. He studied shipbuilding at Shanghai Jiao Tong University and joined the Communist Party of China in 1949. In 1958, he was chosen to lead a secret project: designing China’s first nuclear-powered submarine. At that time, China had no experience in this field, and foreign countries refused to share technology. Huang and his team faced huge challenges. They collected information from newspapers and studied two American submarine models. Without computers, they used simple tools like abacuses and rulers. To avoid mistakes, three groups checked every calculation. Even when the project was paused (暂停) from 1962 to 1965 due to economic difficulties, Huang never gave up. Finally, in 1970, China successfully built its first nuclear submarine, becoming the fifth country in the world to do so. Huang’s name was kept secret until 1987 because the project was highly confidential. Even in his 90s, Huang worked daily to teach young engineers and share his knowledge. His first submarine is now displayed in a museum, and he received China’s highest honor, the Medal of the Republic, in 2019. 1．Why did Huang’s team use three groups to check calculations? A．To compete for faster results. B．To be sure about the accuracy (准确性) without modern tools. C．To train more engineers.

We may think it is a kind of behavior (行为) that means they are focused (专心的). But in fact, it is more than that and science has proved it. Nail biting can begin at an early age. According to the BBC, up to 45 percent of teenagers bite their nails. There is not an exact answer to explain why people bite their nails. But most commonly, nail biting is said to be a nervous habit. It is done because of stress, boredom or excitement. What’s more, scientists found that people with higher levels of intelligence (智力) are the ones who start biting their nails at an early age. They believe that compared with common people, those with higher levels of intelligence may feel higher levels of stress more easily. This habit is bad for the biters. It can give them red or sore fingertips. And long-term nail biting can affect how our nails grow. But don’t worry! There are many ways to stop biting your nails. First, keep your nails clean. The more you focus on taking care of your nails, the less likely you are to start biting them again. Also, when you feel stressed, try to relax.

For example, there is an AI restaurant in Shanghai. Let’s see what it is like. The AI restaurant, located in the Hongqiao Area, covers about 130 square meters. It can serve about 300 people every day, most of whom are old people living nearby or office workers in the area. At the restaurant, people need to order food on a screen. For those who are not sure what to eat, the restaurant’s robots can give advice. Then the robots cook the dishes according to the order. They can make different kinds of Chinese dishes like gongbao chicken and mapo toufu. What’s more, the robots can control the temperature for dine-in or take-away food to keep the dishes warm. At the self-service area, people simply need to place their dishes on a smart cash desk and the robots will tell them the price of the meal. People can pay in different ways, like asking bank cards or QR codes (二维码). The prices of the food at the AI restaurant are pretty low. Every meat dish costs only 8 yuan while every vegetable dish costs only 3.5 yuan. “The meals cooked by robots taste as good as those cooked by humans. It is cheap and convenient (方便的) for us to eat in the AI restaurant,” said an old man. Would you like to have a meal in such a smart restaurant? How could AI help people next? Let’s wait and see. 1．The AI restaurant is an example to show _________.

What is even more interesting is that the brain takes in all the information to create that first impression in about three seconds. When you meet someone for the first time, by the time you have stated your name or shaken hands, the other person has already formed an opinion about the kind of person you are. So how do you make a good first impression? All things grown-ups tell you—such as being polite, and being well-dressed are very important. However, the most important tool for making a good first impression is your face. Smiling, being responsive, and looking like you are happy will almost always leave a positive (积极的) impression on people, especially those who do not know you. Most people, generally speaking, are ready to smile back when they are smiled at. Furthermore, smiling and being in a positive mood helps you to know and get a better understanding of new things. This means that you can possibly be friendlier to people you do not know and be more creative and able to solve problems more quickly. So if you ever need a reason to be happy, think about the wonderful people you might meet and impress with a cheerful smile. 1．What does the underlined word “reacts” in Paragraph 1 probably mean in Chinese? A．报告 B．建议 C．回应 D．道歉 2．Which paragraph shows how soon others form opinions on you? A．Paragraph 1. B．Paragraph 2. C．Paragraph 3. D．Paragraph 4. 3．What is the most important to leave good impressions? A．Stating your name. B．Shaking hands. C．Wearing a smile. D．Dressing nicely. 4．What can be learned from the last paragraph? A．Friendliness helps solve problems. B．Being positive helps you find a way out. C．There are many reasons to be happy. D．Thinking of great people cheers you up. 5．What would be the best title for the text? A．Impressions Decide Who You Are B．Smiling Makes the First Impression C．Manners Leave Deep Impressions D．The First Impression Does Count 主题03 人与自然——科普知识 Passage 1 (24-25八下·湖北宜城五校·期中) Thinking Does Something to Body Researchers found that when people think a lot, the brain produces glutamate (谷氨酸). The brain with too much glutamate will tell the body it is tired and that it must rest. People who spend more than six hours working on a task that requires a lot of thought more probably feel tired. ________ The word “hangry” means to be angry as a result of feeling hungry. It’s not a new word. But scientists recently found that being hangry could be a real medical condition. There is a strong relationship between hunger and feelings of anger (愤怒) or low pleasure. Scientists believe that if people know they are hangry, they could better control their anger. Dancing to Music Is Genetic (遗传的)We can’t help dancing or nodding head when we hear music. New research suggests that moving our body to music is genetic. Parents pass their sense of rhythm down to their children. The scientists say the genes work in similar ways to those for other rhythms (节奏), such as breathing, walking and sleeping. 1．In which part of the newspaper can we read the news? A．MEDICAL CARE.

The sun’s “sneeze” arrived as predicted! China’s National Center for Space Weather (NCSW) forecast geomagnetic activities (地磁活动) to happen from March 24 to 26. According to the data, the earth experienced the storm that lasted Yor 12 hours on March 25. Geomagnetic storms can shoot out a huge amount of material and carry a strong magnetic field, which causes major changes in the earth’s magnetic environment. “Geomagnetic storms can influence (影响) radio waves and cause problems for ground communication and satellite signals (卫星信号),” Professor Cai Zheng from Tsinghua University told Xinhua. This can influence the accuracy of navigation systems (导航系统) and the quality of signals for phones and satellite TV, Strong geomagnetic storms can also influence power systems, even resulting in power outages. Geomagnetic storms can also influence the migration and navigation abilities of animals. For example, they can influence homing pigeons’ ability to find their way, making it difficult for them to return home. ★ Shortly after the recent storm, the topic of “geomagnetic storms and sleep” appeared on Sina Weibo with some Internet users complaining that they had trouble sleeping. However, it was just a convenient excuse. “Geomagnetic storms usually don’t influence human health,” Zong Weiguo at China Meteorological Administration said. Not only do the storms have minimal influence on humans, they also send an unexpected gift—auroras (极光). On the early morning of March 25, auroras appeared in Genhe in Inner Mongolia and Mohe in Heilongjiang. 6．The writer starts the passage by ____________. A．expressing feelings B．giving examples C．presenting facts D．explaining reasons 7．Which of the following can be put in ★ ? A．When do humans sleep during geomagnetic storms B．Why do geomagnetic storms usually influence human health C．How can we keep away from the harm of geomagnetic storms D．What about the influence of such storms on humans 8．The underlined word “minimal” in the last paragraph means ____________. A．worst B．lowest C．furthest D．deepest 9．What might happen during geomagnetic storms? A．The lights in your house may go out. B．Pigeons can return home easily. C．People can’t fall asleep at all. D．We can see auroras everywhere. 10．Which is the right structure of the passage? (①=Paragraph 1  ②=Paragraph 2, . . . ) A． B． C． D． Passage 3 (23-24八下·湖北宜昌宜都·期中) A young actress is about to go onto the stage (舞台). As she waits by the side of the stage, she looks nervous. You might hear that she says to her friend in a low voice .“I’ve got butterflies in my stomach”. Butterflies in her stomach? How did those get in there? The feeling of butterflies comes from things produced by the body in stressful situations. One thing that the body make under stress is cortisol (皮质醇). It helps the body in normal situations. In fact it helps the body do normal activities in the morning after waking up. It also plays a role in helping the body and react (作出反应) well. However, when the body is under stress, cortisol begins to influence the stomach. For some people cortisol shuts down the stomach, producing the funny feeling of butterflies. For others, cortisol speeds up the way the stomach works, which makes these people feel sick. Scientists believe that stress is helpful and it is a preparation for dealing with difficulties. With this preparation comes the power to do with the changes outside, so being nervous isn’t all bad. However, if people are under nervousness for a long time, they can lose control of the body, which will lead to illness. So we should learn to keep it away. All you need to do to keep away from a few butterflies in the stomach is just learning to relax. Taking a trip with family may be a good way. Reading a book on a sunny morning can also make you enjoy yourself. Laughing with or talking to others about your stress can help with it. Stepping out onto the stage will also help those butterflies fly away. 11．Which writing skill is used in paragraph 1? A．Listing the truth. B．Giving examples. C．Raising questions. D．Explaining differences 12．Why do people feel nervous according to the text? A．Because they need to be healthy. B．Because they want to do normal activities. C．Because they have made fewer preparations. D．Because there is one thing influencing their bodies. 13．What can we know about the cortisol? A．It has both good and bad influences on people. B．It stops people from getting sick. C．It’s always helpful to people. D．It doesn’t play an important role in doing with difficulties. 14．What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 3 refer to? A．The preparation B．The difficulty C．The illness D．The nervousness 15．What does the text mainly tell us? A．The information about the butterflies. B．How to get away from stress.

How many times, for example, do you find yourself saying things like “I really don’t understand this maths problem”, or “I can’t get into the school team”? Well, maybe it’s time to introduce yourself to the power of “yet” By adding this simple word, you can change everything. “I really don’t understand this maths problem yet.” “I can’t get into the school team yet.”Suddenly, the impossible becomes possible. You can imagine those things happening. I read about a school that has changed the way it marks its students’ exams. The school finds out that the old “pass/fail system” wasn’t helping students’ motivation (积极性). If you passed, then great, but those students who didn’t pass often felt like failures. So now students who don’t pass the exams will not see a big red F on their papers, they see a “Not yet” instead. That way the students feel that they are on a journey. They haven’t reached the end, but they know that they are going the right way. This kind of thinking is part of what experts call “having a growth mindset”. People with a growth mindset don’t concentrate on failure. They aren’t worried by not getting things right the first time and are happy to keep trying until they do. They enjoy the challenge and believe they can change. In contrast, people who just fix their eyes on the failure have what the experts call “a fixed mindset”. These people are always worried about failure and are happy to give up when things don’t go right. They don’t think that they are able to change. Clearly, it is better to have a growth mindset than a fixed mindset. But don’t worry if you think that you have a fixed mindset. ★ . Remember that it all starts with questioning the things you believe about yourself. Stop believing that you can’t or you haven’t and realize that you just can’t or haven’t yet. Once you start doing this, you’ll wonder why you didn’t do it before. It’s one small but very powerful word. 1．The purpose of adding the word “yet” is to believe ________. A．everything is possible B．you are on a journey to your destination C．you are going to start to win D．you will never feel upset about your failures 2．(新考法) The example in Paragraph 2 is to ________. A．express a feeling B．describe a problem C．show the result D．support the topic 3．Which of the following can be put into ★ ? A．Experts will help you grow up healthily in mind. B．You can train yourself to develop a growth mindset. C．Everyone has his own advantages and disadvantages. D．You can change everything by adding the small word “yet”. 4．According to the passage, which one of the following has “a growth mindset”? A．Jack got an “A” in the exam. He was quite happy to tell his parents. B．David failed in a competition, but he stayed confident and kept trying. C．Jenny found it hard to work out the maths problem, so she gave it up. D．Emma was refused by school team. She didn’t want to have another try. 5．Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A．Small word, great power B．Two Different Mindsets C．Nothing Is Impossible D．On the Way to Success 【答案】1．A 2．D 3．B 4．B 5．A 【导语】本文讲述了Yet“然而”是一个很有分量的词，且在我们成长过程中起着重要的作用。 1．细节理解题。根据首段“By adding this simple word, you can change everything. … Suddenly, the impossible becomes possible.”可知，加上 yet 是为了让人相信一切皆有可能，故选A。 2．推理判断题。根据“Well, maybe it’s time to introduce yourself to the power of ‘yet’. By adding this simple word, you can change everything.”和“I read about a school that has changed the way it marks its students’ exams. The school find out that the old pass/fail system wasn’t helping students’ motivation (积极性)...They haven’t reached the end, but they know that they are going the right way.”可知，第二段通过介绍“尚未”的运用，可以改变成绩不合格的学生思维方式，以此来证明作者的观点。故选D。 3．推理判断题。根据“Clearly, it is better to have a growth mindset than a fixed mindset.”和“But don’t worry if you think that you have a fixed mindset.”可知，此处内容和“成长心态”相关，B选项“你可以训练自己培养成长心态”符合语境，故选B。 4．推理判断题。根据“They aren’t worried by not getting things right the first time and are happy to keep trying until they do.”可知，他们并不担心第一次没有把事情做对，而且很乐意继续尝试，直到成功为止，所以B选项“大卫在一场比赛中失败了，但他保持着自信并不断努力。”中的大卫具有“成长心态”，故选B。 5．最佳标题题。本文讲述了Yet“然而”是一个很有分量的词，且在我们成长过程中起着重要的作用，选项A“言语虽小，力量却很大”为最佳标题，故选A。 Passage 2 (24-25八下·湖北十堰竹溪县九年一贯制学校第一教联体·期中) Everyone worries.

The night before, you spend a lot of time thinking about the possible mistakes you might make and whether you’re prepared enough. Well, you might be overthinking. Overthinking means going over the same thought again and again, analyzing (分析) the simplest situations or events too much. Overthinking comes from one of our primitive instincts (原始本能). The primitive mind will always see things in the worst possible light. Our brains are always looking for threats (威胁), to make a plan to deal with those threats and keep us safe. Some people believe that overthinking may be helpful because it helps us look at a problem from every possible angle (角度) and get ready for what might happen. However, research suggests that overthinking can make us stressed, anxious (焦虑的) and depressed(忧郁的). What’s more, overthinking might create problems with how you get along with others. As you think the worst, make incorrect guesses, or worry about every little thing others do and say, you might misunderstand their intentions (意图). So, instead of sitting and thinking about a problem again and again, you can distract (转移注意力) yourself for a bit. Your brain might find better ways to solve the problem while you’re doing something fun, like gardening (园艺), or even while you’re sleeping. Also, when you find yourself overthinking, challenge these thoughts. Ask yourself if they make sense and think about other possibilities. It can be hard at first, but recognizing that you are overthinking can help you make a change. 1．According to the passage, what is the result of overthinking? A．It improves problem-solving skills. B．It reduces stress levels. C．It leads to anxiety and poor decisions. D．It helps people sleep better. 2．What does the brain’s “primitive instinct” do, according to the passage? A．It encourages creative thinking. B．It focuses on finding threats. C．It helps people relax in difficult situations. D．It makes decisions quickly. 3．Which activity is suggested to stop overthinking? A．Doing something interesting. B．Challenging negative thoughts. C．Avoiding all social activities. D．Making longer to-do lists. 4．What can we infer (推断) about people who overthink? A．They never feel stressed. B．They may misunderstand others’ intentions. C．They always make perfect plans. D．They prefer to work alone. 5．What is the main idea of the passage? A．Overthinking is a useless habit. B．Overthinking has roots in human instincts but can be managed. C．Gardening is the best solution to stress. D．Modern life makes overthinking unavoidable. 【答案】1．C 2．B 3．A 4．B 5．B 【导语】本文主要讨论了过度思考的定义、原因、影响以及如何识别和控制过度思考。 1．细节理解题。根据“However, research suggests that overthinking can make us stressed, anxious (焦虑的) and depressed(忧郁的).”和“As you think the worst, make incorrect guesses, or worry about every little thing others do and say, you might misunderstand their intentions (意图).”可知，过度思考会导致焦虑和糟糕的决定。故选C。 2．细节理解题。根据“Our brains are always looking for threats (威胁), to make a plan to deal with those threats and keep us safe.”可知，大脑的“原始本能”专注于寻找威胁。故选B。 3．细节理解题。根据“Your brain might find better ways to solve the problem while you’re doing something fun, like gardening (园艺), or even while you’re sleeping.”可知，建议做一些有趣的事情来停止过度思考。故选A。 4．推理判断题。根据第四段内容可知，当你往最坏的方面想，做出错误的猜测，或者担心别人做的和说的每一件小事时，你可能会误解他们的意图。即过度思考者会误解他人言行。故选B。 5．主旨大意题。根据文章内容可知，文章先解释过度思考的原始本能根源，再说明其危害，最后提出应对方法，说明过度思考源于人类的本能，但可以控制。故选B。 主题01 人与自我——个人经历 Passage 1 (24-25八下·湖北宜城五校·期中) Huang Xuhua, the chief designer of China’s first-generation nuclear submarines, passed away at the age of 99 in Wuhan. His life was a story of dedication and hard work for China’s defense technology. Born in Guangdong in 1926, Huang grew up during war time. He studied shipbuilding at Shanghai Jiao Tong University and joined the Communist Party of China in 1949. In 1958, he was chosen to lead a secret project: designing China’s first nuclear-powered submarine. At that time, China had no experience in this field, and foreign countries refused to share technology. Huang and his team faced huge challenges. They collected information from newspapers and studied two American submarine models. Without computers, they used simple tools like abacuses and rulers. To avoid mistakes, three groups checked every calculation. Even when the project was paused (暂停) from 1962 to 1965 due to economic difficulties, Huang never gave up. Finally, in 1970, China successfully built its first nuclear submarine, becoming the fifth country in the world to do so. Huang’s name was kept secret until 1987 because the project was highly confidential. Even in his 90s, Huang worked daily to teach young engineers and share his knowledge. His first submarine is now displayed in a museum, and he received China’s highest honor, the Medal of the Republic, in 2019. 1．Why did Huang’s team use three groups to check calculations? A．To compete for faster results. B．To be sure about the accuracy (准确性) without modern tools. C．To train more engineers. D．To follow foreign guidelines. 2．How did Huang’s team solve the problem of no computers? A．They used abacuses and repeated calculations. B．They borrowed computers from universities.

B．The team has little interest. C．The country faced economic difficulties. D．Foreign technology became available. 5．What lesson can we learn from Huang Xuhua’s story? A．Success needs teamwork and never giving up. B．Interest is the best teacher. C．Keeping secrets is unnecessary. D．Foreign help is always needed. 【答案】1．B 2．A 3．C 4．C 5．A 【导语】本文主要讲述了中国首代核潜艇总设计师黄旭华的人生故事，涵盖其早年经历、在设计中国首艘核潜艇秘密项目中面临的挑战、项目取得的成功以及他后续做出的贡献。 1．细节理解题。根据“Without computers, they used simple tools like abacuses and rulers.

We may think it is a kind of behavior (行为) that means they are focused (专心的). But in fact, it is more than that and science has proved it. Nail biting can begin at an early age. According to the BBC, up to 45 percent of teenagers bite their nails. There is not an exact answer to explain why people bite their nails. But most commonly, nail biting is said to be a nervous habit. It is done because of stress, boredom or excitement. What’s more, scientists found that people with higher levels of intelligence (智力) are the ones who start biting their nails at an early age. They believe that compared with common people, those with higher levels of intelligence may feel higher levels of stress more easily. This habit is bad for the biters. It can give them red or sore fingertips. And long-term nail biting can affect how our nails grow. But don’t worry! There are many ways to stop biting your nails. First, keep your nails clean.

What is even more interesting is that the brain takes in all the information to create that first impression in about three seconds. When you meet someone for the first time, by the time you have stated your name or shaken hands, the other person has already formed an opinion about the kind of person you are. So how do you make a good first impression? All things grown-ups tell you—such as being polite, and being well-dressed are very important. However, the most important tool for making a good first impression is your face. Smiling, being responsive, and looking like you are happy will almost always leave a positive (积极的) impression on people, especially those who do not know you. Most people, generally speaking, are ready to smile back when they are smiled at. Furthermore, smiling and being in a positive mood helps you to know and get a better understanding of new things. This means that you can possibly be friendlier to people you do not know and be more creative and able to solve problems more quickly. So if you ever need a reason to be happy, think about the wonderful people you might meet and impress with a cheerful smile. 1．What does the underlined word “reacts” in Paragraph 1 probably mean in Chinese? A．报告 B．建议 C．回应 D．道歉 2．Which paragraph shows how soon others form opinions on you? A．Paragraph 1. B．Paragraph 2. C．Paragraph 3. D．Paragraph 4. 3．What is the most important to leave good impressions?

B．Being positive helps you find a way out. C．There are many reasons to be happy. D．Thinking of great people cheers you up. 5．What would be the best title for the text? A．Impressions Decide Who You Are B．Smiling Makes the First Impression C．Manners Leave Deep Impressions D．The First Impression Does Count 【答案】1．C 2．B 3．C 4．B 5．D 【导语】本文向我们介绍了第一印象的重要性，怎样给他人留下好的第一印象以及微笑和积极的心态给人们带来的好处。 1．词义猜测题。根据第一段“…meeting you for the first time will probably influence how that person treats you or reacts to you in the future.”可知，首次见面，人们对你的印象决定如何回应你，故划线单词“react”意为“回应”。故选C。 2．细节理解题。根据第二段“What is even more interesting is that the brain takes in all the information to create that first impression in about three seconds”可知，第二段提到形成第一印象只需大约三秒，故选B。 3．细节理解题。根据第三段“However, the most important tool for making a good first impression is your face. Smiling, being responsive, and looking like you are happy will almost always leave a positive (积极的) impression on people, especially those who do not know you.”可知，留下好的第一印象最重要的是面部表情——微笑。故选C。 4．细节理解题。根据最后一段“Furthermore, smiling and being in a positive mood...with a cheerful smile.”可知，本段提到微笑和积极情绪使人更友好、更有创造力，并能更快解决问题。即积极的情绪能帮助你找到出路。故选B。 5．标题归纳题。通读全文可知，本文向我们介绍了第一印象的重要性，怎样给他人留下好的第一印象以及微笑和积极的心态给人们带来的好处。故“第一印象很重要”为最佳标题。故选D。 主题03 人与自然——科普知识 Passage 1 (24-25八下·湖北宜城五校·期中) Thinking Does Something to Body Researchers found that when people think a lot, the brain produces glutamate (谷氨酸). The brain with too much glutamate will tell the body it is tired and that it must rest. People who spend more than six hours working on a task that requires a lot of thought more probably feel tired. ________ The word “hangry” means to be angry as a result of feeling hungry. It’s not a new word. But scientists recently found that being hangry could be a real medical condition. There is a strong relationship between hunger and feelings of anger (愤怒) or low pleasure. Scientists believe that if people know they are hangry, they could better control their anger. Dancing to Music Is Genetic (遗传的)We can’t help dancing or nodding head when we hear music. New research suggests that moving our body to music is genetic. Parents pass their sense of rhythm down to their children. The scientists say the genes work in similar ways to those for other rhythms (节奏), such as breathing, walking and sleeping. 1．In which part of the newspaper can we read the news? A．MEDICAL CARE.

A．“hangry” is a new word B．hangry has to do with stress C．hangry can’t be controlled at all D．hunger influences our feelings 【答案】1．D 2．C 3．D 4．D 5．D 【导语】本文主要讲述了研究者的三个科学发现：思考过多会让人疲惫；饥饿能让人情绪低落；节奏感是遗传的。 1．推理判断题。根据三个短文的内容可知，本文主要讲述了三个科学发现，所以我们可以在报纸的科学研究板块看到这则新闻。故选D。 2．细节理解题。根据第一个短文中“The brain with too much glutamate will tell the body it is tired and that it must rest. People who spend more than six hours working on a task that requires a lot of thought more probably feel tired.”可知，如果一个人从事一项需要大量思考的工作超过六个小时，他大脑中的谷氨酸盐就会增加。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据最后一个短文中“New research suggests that moving our body to music is genetic. Parents pass their sense of rhythm down to their children.”可知，父母节奏感强的孩子可能有很强的音乐适应能力。故选D。 4．最佳标题题。根据第二个短文内容可知，第二个短文主要讲述了科学家最近发现，饥饿能让人情绪低落，由此推断出，D选项的表达“饥饿会让我们感到‘恼怒’”最适合作其标题。故选D。 5．细节理解题。根据第二个短文中“The word ‘hangry’ means to be angry as a result of feeling hungry.”和“There is a strong relationship between hunger and feelings of anger (愤怒) or low pleasure.”可知，饥饿和愤怒或低快感之间有很大的关系。所以，饥饿会影响我们的感觉。故选D。 Passage 2 (23-24八下·湖北武汉江岸区·期末) Have you ever noticed how differently people from different countries deal with rainy days? The sun’s “sneeze” arrived as predicted! China’s National Center for Space Weather (NCSW) forecast geomagnetic activities (地磁活动) to happen from March 24 to 26. According to the data, the earth experienced the storm that lasted Yor 12 hours on March 25. Geomagnetic storms can shoot out a huge amount of material and carry a strong magnetic field, which causes major changes in the earth’s magnetic environment. “Geomagnetic storms can influence (影响) radio waves and cause problems for ground communication and satellite signals (卫星信号),” Professor Cai Zheng from Tsinghua University told Xinhua. This can influence the accuracy of navigation systems (导航系统) and the quality of signals for phones and satellite TV, Strong geomagnetic storms can also influence power systems, even resulting in power outages. Geomagnetic storms can also influence the migration and navigation abilities of animals. For example, they can influence homing pigeons’ ability to find their way, making it difficult for them to return home. ★ Shortly after the recent storm, the topic of “geomagnetic storms and sleep” appeared on Sina Weibo with some Internet users complaining that they had trouble sleeping. However, it was just a convenient excuse. “Geomagnetic storms usually don’t influence human health,” Zong Weiguo at China Meteorological Administration said. Not only do the storms have minimal influence on humans, they also send an unexpected gift—auroras (极光). On the early morning of March 25, auroras appeared in Genhe in Inner Mongolia and Mohe in Heilongjiang. 6．The writer starts the passage by ____________. A．expressing feelings B．giving examples C．presenting facts D．explaining reasons 7．Which of the following can be put in ★ ? A．When do humans sleep during geomagnetic storms B．Why do geomagnetic storms usually influence human health C．How can we keep away from the harm of geomagnetic storms D．What about the influence of such storms on humans 8．The underlined word “minimal” in the last paragraph means ____________. A．worst B．lowest C．furthest D．deepest 9．What might happen during geomagnetic storms? A．The lights in your house may go out. B．Pigeons can return home easily. C．People can’t fall asleep at all. D．We can see auroras everywhere. 10．Which is the right structure of the passage? (①=Paragraph 1  ②=Paragraph 2, . . . ) A． B． C． D． 【答案】6．C 7．D 8．B 9．A 10．C 【导语】本文主要介绍地磁风暴及其影响。 6．细节理解题。作者提到了太阳的“喷嚏”按预测准时到达，并详细描述了地磁风暴的预测时间和影响。文章是以陈述事实开头的。故选C。 7．细节理解题。根据空后内容可知，接下来讨论的是地磁风暴对人类的影响，并指明人类通常不会受到地磁风暴的影响。空处可以填入“这样的风暴对人类有什么影响呢”。故选D。 8．词义猜测题。根据“Geomagnetic storms usually don’t influence human health”可知，地磁风暴对人类的影响很小，所以划线单词表示“很小”，与minimals意思相近。故选B。 9．细节理解题。根据“Strong geomagnetic storms can also influence power systems, even resulting in power outages.”可知，强烈的地磁风暴可能会影响电力系统，甚至导致停电。故选A。 10．篇章结构题。这篇文章的结构应该是：首段介绍地磁风暴和它的预测；接下来的二、三、四、五段分别介绍了地磁风暴对于其他不同方面带来的影响，整体属于总分结构。故选C。 Passage 3 (23-24八下·湖北宜昌宜都·期中) A young actress is about to go onto the stage (舞台). As she waits by the side of the stage, she looks nervous. You might hear that she says to her friend in a low voice .“I’ve got butterflies in my stomach”. Butterflies in her stomach? How did those get in there? The feeling of butterflies comes from things produced by the body in stressful situations. One thing that the body make under stress is cortisol (皮质醇). It helps the body in normal situations. In fact it helps the body do normal activities in the morning after waking up. It also plays a role in helping the body and react (作出反应) well. However, when the body is under stress, cortisol begins to influence the stomach. For some people cortisol shuts down the stomach, producing the funny feeling of butterflies. For others, cortisol speeds up the way the stomach works, which makes these people feel sick. Scientists believe that stress is helpful and it is a preparation for dealing with difficulties. With this preparation comes the power to do with the changes outside, so being nervous isn’t all bad. However, if people are under nervousness for a long time, they can lose control of the body, which will lead to illness. So we should learn to keep it away. All you need to do to keep away from a few butterflies in the stomach is just learning to relax. Taking a trip with family may be a good way. Reading a book on a sunny morning can also make you enjoy yourself. Laughing with or talking to others about your stress can help with it. Stepping out onto the stage will also help those butterflies fly away. 11．Which writing skill is used in paragraph 1? A．Listing the truth. B．Giving examples. C．Raising questions. D．Explaining differences 12．Why do people feel nervous according to the text? A．Because they need to be healthy. B．Because they want to do normal activities. C．Because they have made fewer preparations. D．Because there is one thing influencing their bodies. 13．What can we know about the cortisol? A．It has both good and bad influences on people. B．It stops people from getting sick. C．It’s always helpful to people. D．It doesn’t play an important role in doing with difficulties. 14．What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 3 refer to? A．The preparation B．The difficulty C．The illness D．The nervousness 15．What does the text mainly tell us? A．The information about the butterflies. B．How to get away from stress. C．Why people feel nervous. D．The importance of being away from stress. 【答案】11．C 12．D 13．A 14．D 15．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述了人们在紧张时会产生“胃里有蝴蝶”的感觉，并解释了这种现象的生理原因（皮质醇的作用），同时提出了缓解压力的建议。 11．推理判断题。根据“Butterflies in her stomach? How did those get in there? The feeling of butterflies comes from things produced by the body in stressful situations.”可看出作者通过提问引入话题。故选C。 12．细节理解题。根据“when the body is under stress, cortisol begins to influence the stomach. For some people cortisol shuts down the stomach, producing the funny feeling of butterflies.”可知紧张感源于皮质醇对身体的影响。故选D。 13．推理判断题。根据“It helps the body in normal situations…However, when the body is under stress, cortisol…makes these people feel sick”可推知它对人体有双重影响。故选A。 14．词句猜测题。根据“if people are under nervousness for a long time…we should learn to keep it away”可知若长期处于紧张状态……应学会摆脱“它”，因此“it”指代前文的“nervousness”。故选D。 15．主旨大意题。根据文章内容可知本文主要讲解了人们紧张的时候会产生一种化学物质——皮质醇，同时还提及了这种化学物质是如何影响人们身体的，最后提出了缓解紧张情绪的方法。故选C。 / 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
