Here are some important safety tips to follow during a thunderstorm. First, stay indoors. If you are outside when a thunderstorm starts, find a safe building or a closed car to take shelter immediately. Avoid staying in open areas such as fields, parks, or on top of hills. Also, stay away from tall objects like trees, poles, and towers, as they are more likely to be struck by lightning. Second, avoid using electronic devices. Lightning can travel through power lines and damage electronic equipment. Do not use telephones, computers, TVs, or other electrical appliances during a thunderstorm. It’s also a good idea to unplug them to prevent damage from power surges. Third, be careful with water. Do not take a bath, shower, or wash dishes during a thunderstorm. Lightning can travel through plumbing systems and cause electric shocks. Also, avoid swimming in pools, lakes, or rivers until the storm has passed completely. Fourth, stay away from windows and doors. Close all windows and doors to prevent rainwater from entering the house. Do not stand near windows or glass doors, as strong winds or flying debris may break the glass and cause injuries. Finally, wait for the storm to pass completely before going outside. Even if the rain stops, there may still be lightning. It’s safe to go outside only after 30 minutes of the last thunderclap. By following these safety tips, you can reduce the risk of injury or death during a thunderstorm. Remember, safety should always be the top priority when facing natural disasters. 36．What should you do if you are outside when a thunderstorm starts? A．Stay in open areas. B．Find a safe building or a closed car to take shelter. C．Stand near tall objects. D．Continue swimming in a lake. 37．Why should you avoid using electronic devices during a thunderstorm? A．They will use too much electricity. B．Lightning can travel through power lines and damage them. C．They will make loud noises. D．They are not necessary during a storm. 38．What should you not do with water during a thunderstorm? A．Drink water. B．Water plants. C．Take a bath or shower.

In 2010, she felt really tired. 46 “I worked too hard. I spent too much. And I slept too little,” she wrote on her website. “I always wanted more because I thought I would be happy with more. I spent much of my life feeling worried and unhealthy.” 47 She began to live simply. She sold many of her things and she gave away other things. She became a minimalist (简约主义者). She said she had never felt better. 48 It teaches people how to live a better life with fewer things. Minimalism is the idea that people are happier living with fewer things. It helps people get away from the things they do not need, so that they can think carefully about what is important. 49 The problem is that we give too much meaning to our things.

B．Do you want to be a minimalist? C．Then Carver decided to change her life. D．There is nothing wrong with having things. E．Helping others can make us live a happier life. F．She started a website called Be More with Less.

The sand hit the window with much noise, and the air became 55 (dirty) than before. Many 56 (passer-by) stood with me in the small shop. We all avoided 57 (go) out in the sandstorm. After about twenty minutes, the sandstorm was over and the wind 58 (drop) down. I looked at 59 (I) dirty clothes and smiled. I left the shop 60 ten minutes and went back home.

In Korea, for example, they have the custom of throwing lost teeth up on the roof (屋顶) of a house in order to get a new tooth. In other Asian countries, such as China and Japan, children follow a similar tradition of throwing lost teeth on the roofs of houses. Birds aren’t the only animals to take lost teeth. In Mongolia, dogs are responsible for taking teeth away. Dogs are highly respected in Mongolian culture and are considered as guardians (守护者) of the people. Tradition says that the new tooth will be in good and strong condition if the baby tooth is fed to a guardian. So parents in Mongolia always put their child’s lost tooth in the fat of a piece of meat and feed it to a dog. The idea of giving lost teeth to a guardian is also a tradition in the West. Many children in Western countries expect the Tooth Fairy to leave money or presents in exchange for a tooth. The exact origin (起源) of the Tooth Fairy is a mystery, although the story probably began in England or Ireland centuries ago. According to the tradition, a child puts a lost tooth under his or her pillow (枕头) before going to bed. In the very early hours of the morning, while the child is sleeping, the Tooth Fairy takes the tooth away and leaves something else under the pillow. In France, the Tooth Fairy leaves a small gift or candies. Children love these surprises very much. In the United States, however , the Tooth Fairy usually leaves money. That can add up to a lot of money from the Tooth Fairy! 根据短文内容，回答下列问题。 61．Where do people throw lost teeth in order to get a new tooth in Korea? 62．What do parents in Mongolia always feed the meat with their child’s lost tooth to? 63．When did the story the Tooth Fairy probably begin in England or Ireland? 64．What does the Tooth Fairy leave in France? 65．Which way do you like best? Why? 【答案】61．On the roof of a house. 62．A dog. 63．Centuries ago. 64．A small gift or candies. 65．I like Tooth Fairy best. Because I can get gifts or money. 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，本文介绍了韩国、中国、日本、蒙古、法国、美国等不同国家关于孩子掉落牙齿的不同传统习俗。 61．根据“In Korea, for example, they have the custom of throwing lost teeth up on the roof of a house in order to get a new tooth.”可知，在韩国人们把掉落的牙齿扔到屋顶上。故填On the roof of a house. 62．根据“So parents in Mongolia always put their child’s lost tooth in the fat of a piece of meat and feed it to a dog.”可知，蒙古的父母把包着牙齿的肉喂给狗。故填A dog. 63．根据“The exact origin of the Tooth Fairy is a mystery, although the story probably began in England or Ireland centuries ago.”可知，这个故事可能几个世纪前始于英国或爱尔兰。故填Centuries ago. 64．根据“In France, the Tooth Fairy leaves a small gift or candies.”可知，在法国牙仙子会留下小礼物或糖果。故填A small gift or candies. 65．开放性试题，言之有理即可。故填I like the Tooth Fairy best.

We turned off all the electrical devices and sat in the living room. My mom made hot soup for us, and we listened to the typhoon news on the radio. In the evening, the wind became weaker, but the rain still fell. We were lucky that our house was not damaged. The next day, we went outside and saw many fallen trees and broken signs on the street. The community workers were already cleaning up the mess. This experience taught me how important it is to get ready for natural disasters. 31．When did the typhoon hit the writer’s hometown?

B How to Stay Safe During a Thunderstorm Thunderstorms are common natural phenomena, but they can be dangerous if we don’t take proper precautions. Here are some important safety tips to follow during a thunderstorm. First, stay indoors. If you are outside when a thunderstorm starts, find a safe building or a closed car to take shelter immediately. Avoid staying in open areas such as fields, parks, or on top of hills. Also, stay away from tall objects like trees, poles, and towers, as they are more likely to be struck by lightning. Second, avoid using electronic devices. Lightning can travel through power lines and damage electronic equipment. Do not use telephones, computers, TVs, or other electrical appliances during a thunderstorm. It’s also a good idea to unplug them to prevent damage from power surges. Third, be careful with water. Do not take a bath, shower, or wash dishes during a thunderstorm. Lightning can travel through plumbing systems and cause electric shocks. Also, avoid swimming in pools, lakes, or rivers until the storm has passed completely. Fourth, stay away from windows and doors. Close all windows and doors to prevent rainwater from entering the house. Do not stand near windows or glass doors, as strong winds or flying debris may break the glass and cause injuries. Finally, wait for the storm to pass completely before going outside. Even if the rain stops, there may still be lightning. It’s safe to go outside only after 30 minutes of the last thunderclap. By following these safety tips, you can reduce the risk of injury or death during a thunderstorm. Remember, safety should always be the top priority when facing natural disasters. 36．What should you do if you are outside when a thunderstorm starts? A．Stay in open areas.

In Korea, for example, they have the custom of throwing lost teeth up on the roof (屋顶) of a house in order to get a new tooth. In other Asian countries, such as China and Japan, children follow a similar tradition of throwing lost teeth on the roofs of houses. Birds aren’t the only animals to take lost teeth. In Mongolia, dogs are responsible for taking teeth away. Dogs are highly respected in Mongolian culture and are considered as guardians (守护者) of the people. Tradition says that the new tooth will be in good and strong condition if the baby tooth is fed to a guardian. So parents in Mongolia always put their child’s lost tooth in the fat of a piece of meat and feed it to a dog. The idea of giving lost teeth to a guardian is also a tradition in the West. Many children in Western countries expect the Tooth Fairy to leave money or presents in exchange for a tooth. The exact origin (起源) of the Tooth Fairy is a mystery, although the story probably began in England or Ireland centuries ago. According to the tradition, a child puts a lost tooth under his or her pillow (枕头) before going to bed. In the very early hours of the morning, while the child is sleeping, the Tooth Fairy takes the tooth away and leaves something else under the pillow. In France, the Tooth Fairy leaves a small gift or candies. Children love these surprises very much. In the United States, however , the Tooth Fairy usually leaves money. That can add up to a lot of money from the Tooth Fairy! 根据短文内容，回答下列问题。 61．Where do people throw lost teeth in order to get a new tooth in Korea? 62．What do parents in Mongolia always feed the meat with their child’s lost tooth to? 63．When did the story the Tooth Fairy probably begin in England or Ireland? 64．What does the Tooth Fairy leave in France? 65．Which way do you like best? Why? 六、根据汉语或首字母提示填空。（共5小题，每小题1分，共5分） 66．He sent a letter to c________ his friend on the new job. 67．The climate activist r________ to attend the oil company’s forum. 68．Tony has entered a lot of c________ and won a lot of prizes. 69．The doctor will ________ (检查；测验) your body carefully to find the problem. 70．You should not ______ ______ (放弃) your dream. 七、完成句子。（共5小题，每小题1分，共5分） 71．如果你回答正确，会得到一份奖品。 If you answer ________, you’ll get a prize. 72．他们不喜欢别人过问年龄、家庭情况或婚姻状况。   They don’t like it when others ask them about their age, their family, _________ they are married. 73．不仅学生，商人也需要学习跨文化沟通技巧。 ________ students ________ businessmen need to learn cross-cultural communication skills. 74．彼得对哈利说了伤感情的话。    Peter said _______ things to Harry. 75．她决定这个周末去儿童医院给孩子们唱歌。 She ______ ______ go to the children’s hospital this weekend to sing for children. 八、书面表达（满分15分） 假设你是李华，这学期你们班来了几位外国同学，他们对中国的餐桌礼仪及饮食文化很感兴趣。请你根据以下提示内容，用英语写一篇短文，向他们介绍相关情况。 内容包括： 1.    一日几餐以及用餐器具； 2.    餐食的具体内容； 3.    中国的餐桌礼仪。 要求： 1. 参考提示内容，可适当发挥；2. 语句通顺，意思连贯，书写工整；3. 文中不得出现任何真实信息（姓名、校名和地名等）；4. 词数 80—100（开头已给出，但不计入总词数）。 Meals in China are different from the ones in the West. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 答案第1页，共2页 答案第1页，共2页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $2025-2026学年八年级下学期5月学情自测卷 英语·答题卡 姓名： 准考证号 条码粘贴处 缺艺配 注意事项 1.答题前，考生先将自己的姓名、准考证号码填写清楚 考生禁止填涂 2. 请将准考证条码粘贴在右侧的条码粘贴处的方框内。 缺考标记！只能 . 选择题必须使用2B铅笔填涂：非选择题必须用0.5毫米黑色字迹的签字笔填写，字体工整。 由监考老师负 4. 请按题号顺序在各题的答题区内作答，超出范围的答案无效，在草纸、试卷上作答无效。 责用黑色字迹 5. 保持卡面清洁，不要折叠、不要弄破、弄皱，不准使用涂改液、刮纸刀。 的签字笔填 6. 填涂样例正确■错误-][√][×] 选择题部分（请用2B铅笔填涂） 1[A][B][C] 6.[A][B][C] 11.A[B][CI 16A1IB1[C] 2.A]IB][C] 7.A][B][C 12A[B][C] 17.AJ[B][C] 3.[A][B][C] 8[A][B][C] 13.A1IB1[C1 18[A][B][C] 4[A][B][C] 9.[A]IB1[C] 14A][B][C] 19.[A][B][C] 5[A][B][C] 10.A1[B1IC] 15.A1[B][C] 20.A1[B1IC] 21[AJ[BJIC][D] 26.[A][BI[CI[D] 31[A][B][C][DI 36.[A][B]ICI[D] 22[A][BIICIID] 27[A][BIICIID] 32[A]IBIICIID] 37.LA1[B1[C1[D1 23.[A][B][C][D] 28[A][B][C][D] 33.[A][B][C][D] 38[A][B][C][D] 24[AJ[B][C][D] 29.[AJ[B][C][D] 34.[A][B][C][D] 39.[A][B][C][D] 25.[A]IB]IC][D] 30.[A][B]IC][D] 35[A][B]IC][D] 40.[A][B]IC][D] 41[A][B][C][D] 46.[A][B][CJ[D][EJIF][G] 42.A][B][CJ[D] 47[AJ[BJICJID][EJ[FJ[GI 43.[A][B][C][D] 48[AJ[BJ[CJ[D][EJ[FJ[G] 4[AJ[B][C][D] 4.[AJ[B][CJ[D][EJ[F][G] 45.IA]IB][C1[D] 50.[A]IB]IC]ID]IEJIF]IG] 请在各题目的答题区域内作答，超出黑色矩形边框限定区域的答案无效！ 英语答题卡第1页（共2页） 请在各题目的答题区域内作答，超出黑色矩形边框限定区域的答案无效！ 非选择题部分 四、语法填空（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分） 51. 52. 53. 54. 55. 56. 57. 58. 59. 60 五、任务型阅读（共5小题，每题2分，满分10分） 61. 62. 63. 64. 65. 六、根据汉语或首字母提示填空。（共5小题，每小题1分，共5分） 66 67 68 69 70 七、完成句子。（共5小题，每小题1分，共5分） 66. 67. 68 69 70 八、书面表达（满分15分） 请在各题目的答题区域内作答，超出黑色矩形边框限定区域的答案无效！ 英语答题卡第2页（共2页） ( …………○…………内…………○…………装…………○…………订…………○…………线…………○……………………○…………内…………○…………装…………○…………订…………○…………线…………○………… ) ( ※※请※※不※※要※※在※※装※※订※※线※※内※※答※※题※※ ) ( …………○…………外…………○…………装…………○…………订…………○…………线…………○………… ) ( 学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________ ) ( …………○…………外…………○…………装…………○…………订…………○…………线…………○………… ) 2025-2026学年八年级英语下学期5月学情自测卷 （考试时间：90分钟；满分：120分） 注意事项： 1．本试卷分第Ⅰ卷（选择题）和第Ⅱ卷（非选择题）两部分。答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2．回答第Ⅰ卷时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。写在本试卷上无效。 3．回答第Ⅱ卷时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 4．测试范围：八年级下册Unit 5--Unit 6（新教材人教版）。 5．考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第I卷 选择题（满分75分） 1、 听力（共三节，满分20分） 第一节 听小对话，从A、B、C三个选项中选出正确的选项，回答问题。（共5小题，每小题1分，满分5分） 1．What was Linda doing at nine last night?

In Korea, for example, they have the custom of throwing lost teeth up on the roof (屋顶) of a house in order to get a new tooth. In other Asian countries, such as China and Japan, children follow a similar tradition of throwing lost teeth on the roofs of houses. Birds aren’t the only animals to take lost teeth. In Mongolia, dogs are responsible for taking teeth away. Dogs are highly respected in Mongolian culture and are considered as guardians (守护者) of the people. Tradition says that the new tooth will be in good and strong condition if the baby tooth is fed to a guardian. So parents in Mongolia always put their child’s lost tooth in the fat of a piece of meat and feed it to a dog. The idea of giving lost teeth to a guardian is also a tradition in the West. Many children in Western countries expect the Tooth Fairy to leave money or presents in exchange for a tooth. The exact origin (起源) of the Tooth Fairy is a mystery, although the story probably began in England or Ireland centuries ago. According to the tradition, a child puts a lost tooth under his or her pillow (枕头) before going to bed. In the very early hours of the morning, while the child is sleeping, the Tooth Fairy takes the tooth away and leaves something else under the pillow. In France, the Tooth Fairy leaves a small gift or candies. Children love these surprises very much. In the United States, however , the Tooth Fairy usually leaves money.
