Yes,this is the meaning of travelling.What has been learned from books is not enough after all. "Listening and reading"parts in the textbooks are not as good as"seeing and enjoying"for oneself in real life.So going to the places in the textbooks"has something to do with"travelling while reading". It works well in students'learning journeys.It can not only make students more interested in learning, but also bring them a more lively and fresher experience. Many people who love travelling will find that,in fact,what they see in their eyes is quite differentfrom it in the pictures.When they are at the places,the surprise they get and the practical )beauty can never be photographed by cameras.When they get there,they can feel the beautiful scenery that sannot be described in textbooks.And the real experience helps people in many ways.For example,students see,touch and feel the real world and get experience.This is very helpful to improve their writing abilities.No wonder some parents said,"Now when my children get home to write compositions,they can write as much as possible." There is a more important sense in this kind of travelling:to raise children's love of our homes and country.There is no certain answer to the question of what kind of person a kid should become,but having patriotism(爱国)”should be included in the answer.. 67.What kind of travel can bring students more interest in learning and a livelier experience?(2) 68.In what ways does the writer think the real travelling experience can help children?(2) 69.Which place from your textbooks would you like to see with your own eyes?Why?(3) 八、书面表达（共1题；满分15分） 假设你是李华，你的童年好友Tom计划近期来苏州旅行。请你写一封电子邮件给他，内容包括： (1)分享你的家乡苏州近些年发生的变化； (2)建议他通过“在线旅行”或是“实地游览”的方式来体验苏州，并说明理由。 注意： (1)词数90左右，开头不计入词数； (②)短文中不得出现任何校名、人名及其他真实信息： (3)照抄试卷中的语篇不得分。 Dear Tom, I'm so excited to hear that you're planning a trip to Suzhoul Best wishes, Li Hua 初二英语期中第8页共8页 ▣▣ 2025-2026学年第二学期期中考试答题卷 初二英语 姓名： 班级： 考场/座位号： 注意事项 1.答题前，考生先将自己的姓名、班级、考场填写消楚，并认真核对 条形码上的姓名和准考证号。 2.选择题部分请按题号用2B铅笔填涂方框，修改时用橡皮擦干净，不 留痕迹。 3.非选择题部分请按题号用0.弦米黑色翻水签宇笔书写， 杏则作答 无效。要求字体工整、笔迹清晰。作图时，必须用2B船笔，并描浓。 正确填涂 缺烤标记 口 4.,在草稿纸、试题卷上答题无效。 5.请勿折叠答题卡，保持字体工整、 笔迹清晰、卡面消洁。 一一四、选择题 1[A][B]癣 6[A][B] 11[]e9[c] 16[A][B]豳O 215明[c][D] 2[AJ圍[C] 7剧[B][c] 12[c] 17腕[B][C][D] 22[]密[c][o] 3[B][C] 8[A][B] 13[A][B] 18[A]卵[D] 23[A][B][D] 4[A][B] 9网[B][c】 14照[B] 19腕[B][c][D] 24网[B][D] 5[A][C] 10涮[B][c] 15E[B][c] 20[A][B][C]网25[A]圈I[C][D] 26[A][B][C] 31[A][C][D] 36[B][C][D] 38[A]题[C][D][E][P][G] 27[A]E圈[C][D] 32[B][C][D] 37[A][B][D] 39[A][B][c][D]圈[P][G] 28画[B][C][D]38[A]图四超[D] 40[A][B][C][D][E]腕[G] 29[A][B][C]圈 34[A][C][D] 41[A][B][c][D][E][P]陶 30IA][B]霸[D] 35[A][B][C] 42[w][B]翮[D][E][F][G] 五、词汇检测（共14小题；每1分，满14分） 43. 44. 45. 46. 47. 48. 49. 50 51. 52. 53. 54. 55. 56. 六、短文填空（共10小题：每1分， 满10分) 57. 58. 59. 60. 61. 62. 63. 64. 65. 66. ■ ■ 七、阅读表达（共3小题：67题2分，68题2分，69题3分，满分7分） 67. 68. 一 69. 八、书面表达（共1题：满分15分） Dear Tom, ■ I'm so excited to hear that you're planning a trip to Suzhoul. 新 离洪 Best wishes, Li Hua
