Don’t worry— here are some simple and fun tips to make grammar easier and more interesting. First, when you learn a new grammar rule in class, try to teach it to someone else. You can explain it to a family member, a friend, or even a pet! Teaching helps you understand the rule better and remember it longer. Second, use grammar in real life. For example, if you are learning the present continuous tense (现在进行时) , talk about what people are doing around you, like “My sister is reading a book” or “The children are singing outside.” This makes grammar useful and connected to your daily life. Finally, don’t be afraid of making mistakes. They are a natural part of learning. The key is to learn from them. Try to practice writing a short diary in English every day. Even just a few sentences each day can make a real difference. When you do make a mistake, or if you’re ever not sure whether (是否) something is correct, don’t be afraid to ask your teachers or classmates for help. Remember, every effort is a step forward, and you make progress with each try. Remember, grammar is not just a set of rules— it’s a tool to help you communicate. With these fun activities, you can learn grammar naturally and speak confidently! 1．What can you do to understand a new grammar rule better according to the text? A．Write it down many times. B．Teach it to someone else. C．Read it aloud in the morning. D．Copy it down from the book. 2．How does the writer explain the second tip? A．By giving examples of using a tense. B．By listing some important grammar rules. C．By asking some easy questions to readers. D．By talking about his own learning experience. 3．What can we infer (推断) from the fourth paragraph (段落) ? A．Mistakes can help you learn better if you learn from them. B．You should only practice grammar when you are sure it’s correct. C．It is better to solve grammar problems by yourself than to ask others. D．Learners need to write long stories to improve their grammar quickly. 【答案】1．B 2．A 3．A 【导语】本文介绍了几个让学习英语语法变得更轻松有趣的小技巧。 1．根据原文第2段“First, when you learned a new grammar rule in class, try to teach it to someone else. ... Teaching helps you understand the rule better and remember it longer.”，可知把新学的语法规则教给别人，能帮助你更好地理解它。 2．根据原文第3段“Second, use grammar in real life. For example, if you are learning the present continuous tense…”，作者通过举现在进行时的使用例子来解释第二个技巧。 3．根据原文第4段“Finally, don’t be afraid of making mistakes. They are a natural part of learning. The key is to learn from them.”，可以推断出：如果你能从错误中学习，错误就能帮你学得更好。 ①Everyone is born with the ability to learn. Whether you can do this well depends (取决于) on your learning habits. Research shows that successful learners have some good habits in common. ②They create an interest in what they learn.

A．How to Study English Well B．How to Develop Good Habits C．How to Become a Good Learner D．How to Find Perfect Learning Places 【答案】1．B 2．B 3．C 4．A 5．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了成功的学习者所共有的良好学习习惯，包括培养学习兴趣、从错误中学习、发展学习技能、主动提问，并强调学习是一场终身旅程，鼓励大家成为聪明的学习者。 1．第二段明确指出：“Studies show that if you are interested in something, your brain is more active and it's also easier for you to pay attention to it for a long time.”，直接说明如果对所学内容感兴趣，我们的大脑会更加活跃。 2．第三段以贝尔发明电话为例，说明他并非一夜之间取得成功，而是通过“trying many times and learning from his mistakes”才最终实现目标，这正体现了“Practice makes perfect.”的道理。 3．第四段的主题是“发展学习技能”，空前提到“只努力学习是不够的”，空后列举了记关键词、画思维导图等具体学习方法。C项“Good learners know good methods.” 起到了承上启下的作用，既承接了“光努力不够”的观点，又引出了后文关于好方法的举例。 4． 文章采用“总—分—总”的结构：第①段总述成功的学习者有共同的好习惯；第②—⑤段分别从四个方面具体介绍这些好习惯；第⑥段总结全文，强调学习是终身旅程，对应选项A的结构图示。 5．全文围绕“如何成为一名好的学习者”展开，依次介绍了好学习者具备的多种良好习惯。A项仅局限于英语学习，过于片面；B项“养成好习惯”范围过大，未紧扣“学习”主题；“How to Become a Good Learner”准确概括了文章的核心内容，适合作为文章的标题。 Do you find it difficult to remember English words? Do you forget them in just a few minutes? In fact, with the right methods, you can learn words more efficiently and easily. Here are three useful rules to help you. First, learn new words through stories. When you read short stories, articles, or conversations, you can see words in real contexts. You will not only know their meanings but also understand how to use them in sentences. Words in stories are more interesting and lively, so you can remember them longer and better than by just memorizing a word list. Stories also create pictures in your mind, which makes the words stay with you for a longer time. Second, remember the words you use most often first. You don’t need to learn all new words at once. In fact, trying to learn too many words at the same time may only make you confused (困惑的). You should start with common daily words, such as those about school, family, food, and hobbies. These are the words you are most likely to meet in real life. The more you use these words in speaking and writing, the more firmly you will remember them. Third, connect new words with your old knowledge. When you learn a new word, think of its related words. For example, when you learn “doctor”, you can think of “nurse”, “hospital”, and “patient”. ▲ Doing this helps you build a word network in your mind and makes your memory much stronger. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 1．How does the writer lead into the topic? A．By listing numbers. B．By asking questions. C．By making a comparison. D．By giving examples. 2．Which word is the closest in meaning to the underlined word “firmly”? A．Slowly. B．Directly. C．Deeply. D．Hardly. 3．Which of the following sentences can be put in ▲ ? A．Listening to English songs is also a good method. B．Don’t memorize the new words unless you often meet them. C．You can also make sentences with the words you already learned. D．It will be more interesting to read English stories with your friends. 4．What is the structure of the text? A．①/②③④ B．①②③/④ C．①/②③/④ D．①/②/③④ 5．In which part of a magazine can we read the text? A．Good Learners. B．Save Money. C．Greener Environment. D．Traditional Arts. 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．C 4．A 5．A 【导语】本文介绍了三种记忆英语单词的方法：通过故事学习、优先记忆常用词、将新词与旧知识联系起来。 1．第一段以两个问句“Do you find it difficult...? Do you forget them...?”开头，引出话题。 2．第三段中“the more firmly you will remember them”意为“越牢固地记住它们”，因此“firmly”意为“牢固地”，与“deeply”意思最接近。 3．最后一段介绍了将新词与旧知识联系的方法，并举例“learn ‘doctor’, you can think of ‘nurse’, ‘hospital’, and ‘patient’”，因此空缺处应填“你也可以用已经学过的单词造句”。 4．文章结构为：第一段引出话题，第二、三、四段分别介绍三种方法，符合“①/②③④”的结构。 5．本文介绍了记忆单词的方法，属于学习方法类内容，最可能出现在“Good Learners”版块。 “How are you?” is a nice question. It’s a friendly way that people in the USA greet (问候) each other. But “How are you?” is also a very unusual question. It’s a question that often doesn’t need an answer. The person who asks “How are you?” hopes to hear the answer “Fine”, even if the person’s friend isn’t fine. The reason is that “How are you?” isn’t really a question and “Fine” isn’t really an answer. They are simply other ways of saying “Hello” or “Hi”. Sometimes, people also don’t say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone asks “Do you agree?”, the other person might think, “No, I disagree. I think you’re wrong...” But it isn’t very polite to disagree so strongly, so the other person might say “I’m not sure.” It’s a nicer way to say that you don’t agree with someone. People also don’t say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people. For example, many talks over the phone finish when one person says “I’ve to go now.” Often, the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse: “Someone’s at the door.” The excuses might be real, or not. Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesn’t want to talk any more, but it isn’t polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and it doesn’t hurt the other person. Whether they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, or finishing a talk, people don’t say exactly what they are thinking. It’s an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and it’s part of the game of language. 1．When a person in America asks “How are you?”, he or she wants to hear “________”. A．I don’t know. B．Fine. C．How are you? D．Hello. 2．When a person disagrees with someone, it is polite to say “________”. A．I’m not sure. B．You are wrong. I disagree. C．I’m sure I disagree. D．No, I disagree. 3．A polite way to finish a talk is to say “________”. A．You have to go now. B．I want to hang up. C．I have to go now. D．I don’t want to talk any more. 4．When a person says “I’ve to go now. Someone’s at the door.” the person may be ________. A．hurting someone’s feelings B．giving an excuse C．ill D．asking you a question 5．The rule of the game of language is probably ________. A．“Don’t disagree with people.” B．“Always say what you mean” C．“Never say exactly what you’re thinking.” D．“Be polite.” 【答案】1．B 2．A 3．C 4．B 5．D 【导语】本文介绍了英语语言中的委婉社交礼仪，讲解了美国人日常问候、表达不同意见、结束对话时的礼貌沟通习惯，点明语言交流的核心社交原则。 1．第一段原文：“The person who asks ‘How are you?’ hopes to hear the answer ‘Fine’”。所以Fine是想听到的答案。 2．第二段原文：“it isn’t very polite to disagree so strongly, so the other person might say ‘I’m not sure.’”，所以I’m not sure.是礼貌的方式。 3．第三段原文：“many talks over the phone finish when one person says ‘I’ve to go now.’”，所以I have to go now.是礼貌的方式。 4．第三段原文：“Often, the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse: ‘Someone’s at the door.’”。这是在给出一个委婉 “借口”。 5．第四段原文：“It’s an important way that people try to be nice to each other,” 全文都在强调人际交往中“保持礼貌”的核心。 ①The Chinese language differs from Western languages in that, instead of an alphabet (字母表), it uses characters (文字) which stand for ideas, objects or deeds. Chinese words are formed by putting together different characters. In many cases, a single character can also make up a word. As one kind of the most ancient characters, Chinese characters have played an important role in the development of Chinese culture. ②Chinese writing began thousands of years ago. According to an ancient story, a man named Cang Jie invented Chinese writing. One winter day while he was hunting, he saw the footprints of animals in the snow and noticed that the appearance of each one was different. Then he had the idea that he could use different shapes to represent different objects. The first Chinese characters were drawings of physical objects. Some characters have been simplified (简化) and others have been made more difficult over time. ③Not all characters were developed from drawings of objects. However, as a whole, the characters have developed from drawings into standard forms. The character for a mountain was at first three mountaintops together. This became one mountaintop and three lines, and over time turned into the character used nowadays. ④Sometimes to express ideas, some characters were made by combining two or more characters together. For example, “休” was made up of the characters for a man and a tree. The character “囚” was formed with a “man” inside a square. Other characters were developed for directions and numbers. It is easy to distinguish (区别) their meanings by looking at them, for example, the characters for “up” and “down”, which are opposites of each other. ⑤Though these kinds of characters indicate (表明) meanings, one of their shortcomings is that they do not show how they should be pronounced. Therefore, a method was developed to have one part of a character stand for the meaning and the other suggest the pronunciation (读音，发音). Many Chinese characters used today were made this way. ⑥In the 1950s, the Chinese government introduced simplified Chinese characters in the hope to make learning to read and write more understandable to the general population, which would increase literacy (读写能力) across the country. And now they have widespread use in China. 1．The earliest Chinese characters were mainly based on ________. A．animal sounds B．simplified shapes C．drawings of objects D．math symbols 2．The writer introduces the Chinese characters by ________ in Paragraph 4. A．giving examples B．providing causes C．expressing opinions D．comparing facts 3．Which Chinese character is formed using the method described in the underlined sentence? A．亦 B．竹 C．明 D．桐 4．What can we learn from the passage? A．Chinese characters have turned into standard forms, all of which are easier than before. B．Chinese characters we use today have been accepted by large numbers of people. C．Chinese characters existed at the very beginning and remain today like other ancient symbols. D．Chinese words and English words are both formed by putting alphabets and characters together. 5．In which part of a newspaper can we probably find the passage? A．Entertainment. B．Culture. C．Nature. D．Review. 【答案】1．C 2．A 3．D 4．B 5．B 【导语】本文介绍了汉字的起源、发展过程、造字方法及现代使用情况。 1．文中第②段提到“The first Chinese characters were drawings of physical objects.”，说明最早的汉字主要基于物体的图画。 2．文中第④段通过列举“休”“囚”“上”“下”等例子，介绍了汉字的构成方式，因此作者使用的是举例子的说明方法。 3．文中划线句提到“one part of a character stand for the meaning and the other suggest the pronunciation”，即形声字的造字方法，形旁表意、声旁表音。选项D“桐”的形旁“木”表意，声旁“同”表音，符合该方法。 4．文中第⑥段提到“now they have widespread use in China”，说明我们现在使用的汉字已被广大民众接受和使用。 5．全文围绕汉字的起源、发展与文化意义展开，属于文化类话题，因此最可能出现在报纸的文化版块。 五、任务型阅读 Active learning includes many kinds of educational activities that encourage students to learn something new instead of just listening to, reading and memorizing (熟记) what they have learned. Compared with traditional learning, active learning helps students develop their own learning abilities and have a deeper understanding of their knowledge. A survey shows that students who use active learning can learn more easily and get higher scores. So it’s necessary for students to use active learning. Here are some tips. First, express yourself actively. Second, think deeply. Ask open-ended questions about the books as you read or study to push yourself to think deeply. Third, form good learning habits. A good learning habit can help you spend less time finishing your tasks. At last, develop the ability to learn by yourself. Before learning from teachers or talking with friends, you’d better have your own ideas. 1．Which learning method helps students develop their own learning abilities? 2．What does the survey in Paragraph 2 show? 3．Why is it important for us to have a good learning habit? 4．What should we do before learning from teachers according to the text? 5．How can we practice “thinking deeply”?（答案须与文中例句不同） 【答案】1．Active learning. 2．Students who use active learning can learn more easily and get higher scores. 3．Because a good learning habit can help us spend less time finishing our tasks. 4．We should have our own ideas. 5．We can discuss difficult problems with classmates to think deeply.（答案不唯一，合理即可） 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了主动学习的定义、优势及培养主动学习的四条建议，强调主动学习对提升学习能力的重要性。 1．第一段提到“Compared with traditional learning, active learning helps students develop their own learning abilities and have a deeper understanding of their knowledge.”，这直接说明主动学习能帮助学生培养自主学习能力。 2．第二段提到“A survey shows that students who use active learning can learn more easily and get higher scores.”，这直接说明了调查的结果。 3．最后一段提到“A good learning habit can help you spend less time finishing your tasks.”，这直接说明了养成良好学习习惯的重要性。 4．最后一段提到“Before learning from teachers or talking with friends, you’d better have your own ideas.”，这直接说明了向老师学习前应做的准备。 5．文中提到的方法是“Ask open-ended questions about the books as you read or study to push yourself to think deeply”，需给出不同的合理方式，例如和同学讨论难题、梳理知识框架等。 Long before English even existed, around 500 BCE, the people living in Britain spoke Celtic languages. Then, in 43 CE, the Romans arrived and took control of most of the island. They brought Latin with them, which left its mark on the land, though it didn’t become the everyday language for most locals. The big turning point came in the 5th century CE. After the Romans left, the Anglo-Saxons from northern Europe settled in Britain. Their language became the basis of Old English, the first version of what we now call English. Later, in 793, the Vikings from Scandinavia began raiding Britain’s coasts. They set up their own kingdoms and many Norse words were added to the language, mixing it with Old English. In 1066, another huge change happened: the Normans from France conquered England. They brought their own French, which became the language of the government and the rich. While common people kept speaking Old English, the two languages mixed together over time. The grammar and vocabulary shifted a lot, and slowly, Old English turned into Middle English. By the late Middle Ages, between 1400 and 1600, the language started to look more like the English we know today. Spelling and pronunciation changed a great deal, and by the time William Shakespeare wrote his famous plays, the language was already very different from Middle English. Finally, starting in the 1800s, the Industrial Revolution changed everything. The British began trading all over the world, and English spread to every corner of the globe. What started as a language of small groups in Britain became a global language, used by people everywhere. 阅读回答问题 1．What event helped form Middle English? 2．What changes took place in English between 1400 and 1600? 3．What made English become a global language? 4．When did English become quite different from Middle English? 5．What does the passage mainly talk about? 【答案】1．The mix of Old English and French. 2．Its spelling and pronunciation changed a lot. 3．Worldwide trade and the Industrial Revolution. 4．When Shakespeare wrote his famous plays. 5．The history and development of English. 【导语】本文按照时间顺序，讲述了英语从古至今的演变发展历程，以及它一步步成为全球通用语言的全过程。 1．第三、四自然段“In 1066... the Normans from France conquered England. They brought their own French… While common people kept speaking Old English, the two languages mixed together over time… Old English turned into Middle English.”，诺曼人入侵带来了法语，古英语与法语相互融合，最终形成了中古英语。 2．第五自然段“By the late Middle Ages, between 1400 and 1600… Spelling and pronunciation changed a great deal.”，a great deal和a lot同义替换，直接提取原文信息：英语的拼写和发音发生了巨大变化。 3．最后一自然段“…starting in the 1800s, the Industrial Revolution changed everything. The British began trading all over the world, and English spread to every corner of the globe.”，工业革命，以及英国在全球范围内开展的世界贸易，让英语传播到世界各地，成为全球通用语言。 4．第五自然段“…by the time William Shakespeare wrote his famous plays, the language was already very different from Middle English.”，by the time对应when，直接提取原文时间节点：到莎士比亚创作他的著名戏剧时。 5．原文按时间顺序：凯尔特语→拉丁语影响→古英语→中古英语→近代英语→全球通用英语，全程围绕英语的演变展开。全文核心主题就是英语的历史与发展。 六、书面表达 1．假设你是八年级的学生李华，你校英语社团将举行主题为“How to Be a Good Learner”的学习经验分享会。请你根据以下提示，用英语写一篇短文，分享你的经验。 要点提示： How to Be a Good Learner Learning methods Preview (预习) before class Listen to the teachers carefully Review after class … (至少补充1点) Living habits Do exercise … (至少补充1点) 注意事项：1．必须包括提示内容，请补充要点，可适当发挥； 2．意思清楚，表达通顺，行文连贯，书写规范； 3．请勿在文中使用真实姓名和校名； 4．不少于80词。 ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】                                                 How to Be a Good Learner     To be a good learner, I have some useful tips.     First, good learning methods are important.

Anywhere you go, it is highly possible that you will meet 4 who speaks English. The reason why English is spoken everywhere is that in the 19th century, the US helped spread English to the world 5 newspapers, TV, and films. Today, it is the common language for international travel, science, and even the Internet. It is also interesting to know that English has 6 many words from other languages such as “restaurant” from French, “kindergarten” from German, and “tofu” from Chinese. This shows how English has grown over time. Will English always be so important? As China continues to grow, many people believe that Chinese will become as 7 as English by the middle of the 21st century. More and more schools in Europe are now teaching Chinese, together with some European languages. However, most people still think that English will be used most around the world, 8 for the next 20 or 30 years. So who owns English?

Don’t worry— here are some simple and fun tips to make grammar easier and more interesting. First, when you learn a new grammar rule in class, try to teach it to someone else. You can explain it to a family member, a friend, or even a pet! Teaching helps you understand the rule better and remember it longer. Second, use grammar in real life. For example, if you are learning the present continuous tense (现在进行时) , talk about what people are doing around you, like “My sister is reading a book” or “The children are singing outside.” This makes grammar useful and connected to your daily life. Finally, don’t be afraid of making mistakes. They are a natural part of learning. The key is to learn from them. Try to practice writing a short diary in English every day. Even just a few sentences each day can make a real difference. When you do make a mistake, or if you’re ever not sure whether (是否) something is correct, don’t be afraid to ask your teachers or classmates for help. Remember, every effort is a step forward, and you make progress with each try. Remember, grammar is not just a set of rules— it’s a tool to help you communicate. With these fun activities, you can learn grammar naturally and speak confidently! 1．What can you do to understand a new grammar rule better according to the text? A．Write it down many times.

A．Mistakes can help you learn better if you learn from them. B．You should only practice grammar when you are sure it’s correct. C．It is better to solve grammar problems by yourself than to ask others. D．Learners need to write long stories to improve their grammar quickly. ①Everyone is born with the ability to learn. Whether you can do this well depends (取决于) on your learning habits. Research shows that successful learners have some good habits in common. ②They create an interest in what they learn. Studies show that if you are interested in something, your brain (头脑) is more active and it’s also easier for you to pay attention to it for a long time. Good learners can always find interesting ways to learn. ③They practice and learn from mistakes. Good learners will keep practicing what they learn, and they are not afraid of making mistakes. Bell didn’t invent the telephone overnight (一夜之间). He made it by trying many times and learning from his mistakes. Yuan Longping also kept practicing and learning from mistakes to develop hybrid (杂交成的) rice for our country. ④They develop their study skills. It’s not enough to just study hard. ________. For example, they may take notes by writing down key words or by drawing mind maps. ⑤They ask questions. Good learners often ask questions during or after class.

Do you forget them in just a few minutes? In fact, with the right methods, you can learn words more efficiently and easily. Here are three useful rules to help you. First, learn new words through stories. When you read short stories, articles, or conversations, you can see words in real contexts. You will not only know their meanings but also understand how to use them in sentences. Words in stories are more interesting and lively, so you can remember them longer and better than by just memorizing a word list. Stories also create pictures in your mind, which makes the words stay with you for a longer time. Second, remember the words you use most often first. You don’t need to learn all new words at once. In fact, trying to learn too many words at the same time may only make you confused (困惑的). You should start with common daily words, such as those about school, family, food, and hobbies. These are the words you are most likely to meet in real life. The more you use these words in speaking and writing, the more firmly you will remember them. Third, connect new words with your old knowledge. When you learn a new word, think of its related words. For example, when you learn “doctor”, you can think of “nurse”, “hospital”, and “patient”. ▲ Doing this helps you build a word network in your mind and makes your memory much stronger. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 1．How does the writer lead into the topic?

It’s a friendly way that people in the USA greet (问候) each other. But “How are you?” is also a very unusual question. It’s a question that often doesn’t need an answer. The person who asks “How are you?” hopes to hear the answer “Fine”, even if the person’s friend isn’t fine. The reason is that “How are you?” isn’t really a question and “Fine” isn’t really an answer. They are simply other ways of saying “Hello” or “Hi”. Sometimes, people also don’t say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone asks “Do you agree?”, the other person might think, “No, I disagree. I think you’re wrong...” But it isn’t very polite to disagree so strongly, so the other person might say “I’m not sure.” It’s a nicer way to say that you don’t agree with someone. People also don’t say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people. For example, many talks over the phone finish when one person says “I’ve to go now.” Often, the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse: “Someone’s at the door.” The excuses might be real, or not. Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesn’t want to talk any more, but it isn’t polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and it doesn’t hurt the other person. Whether they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, or finishing a talk, people don’t say exactly what they are thinking. It’s an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and it’s part of the game of language. 1．When a person in America asks “How are you?”, he or she wants to hear “________”. A．I don’t know. B．Fine. C．How are you? D．Hello. 2．When a person disagrees with someone, it is polite to say “________”. A．I’m not sure. B．You are wrong. I disagree. C．I’m sure I disagree. D．No, I disagree. 3．A polite way to finish a talk is to say “________”. A．You have to go now. B．I want to hang up. C．I have to go now. D．I don’t want to talk any more. 4．When a person says “I’ve to go now. Someone’s at the door.” the person may be ________. A．hurting someone’s feelings B．giving an excuse C．ill D．asking you a question 5．The rule of the game of language is probably ________. A．“Don’t disagree with people.” B．“Always say what you mean” C．“Never say exactly what you’re thinking.” D．“Be polite.” ①The Chinese language differs from Western languages in that, instead of an alphabet (字母表), it uses characters (文字) which stand for ideas, objects or deeds. Chinese words are formed by putting together different characters. In many cases, a single character can also make up a word. As one kind of the most ancient characters, Chinese characters have played an important role in the development of Chinese culture. ②Chinese writing began thousands of years ago. According to an ancient story, a man named Cang Jie invented Chinese writing. One winter day while he was hunting, he saw the footprints of animals in the snow and noticed that the appearance of each one was different. Then he had the idea that he could use different shapes to represent different objects. The first Chinese characters were drawings of physical objects. Some characters have been simplified (简化) and others have been made more difficult over time. ③Not all characters were developed from drawings of objects. However, as a whole, the characters have developed from drawings into standard forms. The character for a mountain was at first three mountaintops together. This became one mountaintop and three lines, and over time turned into the character used nowadays. ④Sometimes to express ideas, some characters were made by combining two or more characters together. For example, “休” was made up of the characters for a man and a tree. The character “囚” was formed with a “man” inside a square. Other characters were developed for directions and numbers. It is easy to distinguish (区别) their meanings by looking at them, for example, the characters for “up” and “down”, which are opposites of each other. ⑤Though these kinds of characters indicate (表明) meanings, one of their shortcomings is that they do not show how they should be pronounced. Therefore, a method was developed to have one part of a character stand for the meaning and the other suggest the pronunciation (读音，发音). Many Chinese characters used today were made this way. ⑥In the 1950s, the Chinese government introduced simplified Chinese characters in the hope to make learning to read and write more understandable to the general population, which would increase literacy (读写能力) across the country. And now they have widespread use in China. 1．The earliest Chinese characters were mainly based on ________. A．animal sounds B．simplified shapes C．drawings of objects D．math symbols 2．The writer introduces the Chinese characters by ________ in Paragraph 4. A．giving examples B．providing causes C．expressing opinions D．comparing facts 3．Which Chinese character is formed using the method described in the underlined sentence? A．亦 B．竹 C．明 D．桐 4．What can we learn from the passage? A．Chinese characters have turned into standard forms, all of which are easier than before. B．Chinese characters we use today have been accepted by large numbers of people. C．Chinese characters existed at the very beginning and remain today like other ancient symbols. D．Chinese words and English words are both formed by putting alphabets and characters together. 5．In which part of a newspaper can we probably find the passage? A．Entertainment. B．Culture. C．Nature. D．Review. 五、任务型阅读 Active learning includes many kinds of educational activities that encourage students to learn something new instead of just listening to, reading and memorizing (熟记) what they have learned. Compared with traditional learning, active learning helps students develop their own learning abilities and have a deeper understanding of their knowledge. A survey shows that students who use active learning can learn more easily and get higher scores. So it’s necessary for students to use active learning. Here are some tips. First, express yourself actively. Second, think deeply. Ask open-ended questions about the books as you read or study to push yourself to think deeply. Third, form good learning habits. A good learning habit can help you spend less time finishing your tasks. At last, develop the ability to learn by yourself. Before learning from teachers or talking with friends, you’d better have your own ideas. 1．Which learning method helps students develop their own learning abilities? 2．What does the survey in Paragraph 2 show? 3．Why is it important for us to have a good learning habit? 4．What should we do before learning from teachers according to the text? 5．How can we practice “thinking deeply”?（答案须与文中例句不同） Long before English even existed, around 500 BCE, the people living in Britain spoke Celtic languages. Then, in 43 CE, the Romans arrived and took control of most of the island. They brought Latin with them, which left its mark on the land, though it didn’t become the everyday language for most locals. The big turning point came in the 5th century CE. After the Romans left, the Anglo-Saxons from northern Europe settled in Britain. Their language became the basis of Old English, the first version of what we now call English. Later, in 793, the Vikings from Scandinavia began raiding Britain’s coasts. They set up their own kingdoms and many Norse words were added to the language, mixing it with Old English. In 1066, another huge change happened: the Normans from France conquered England. They brought their own French, which became the language of the government and the rich. While common people kept speaking Old English, the two languages mixed together over time. The grammar and vocabulary shifted a lot, and slowly, Old English turned into Middle English. By the late Middle Ages, between 1400 and 1600, the language started to look more like the English we know today. Spelling and pronunciation changed a great deal, and by the time William Shakespeare wrote his famous plays, the language was already very different from Middle English. Finally, starting in the 1800s, the Industrial Revolution changed everything. The British began trading all over the world, and English spread to every corner of the globe. What started as a language of small groups in Britain became a global language, used by people everywhere. 阅读回答问题 1．What event helped form Middle English? 2．What changes took place in English between 1400 and 1600? 3．What made English become a global language? 4．When did English become quite different from Middle English? 5．What does the passage mainly talk about? 六、书面表达 1．假设你是八年级的学生李华，你校英语社团将举行主题为“How to Be a Good Learner”的学习经验分享会。请你根据以下提示，用英语写一篇短文，分享你的经验。 要点提示： How to Be a Good Learner Learning methods Preview (预习) before class Listen to the teachers carefully Review after class … (至少补充1点) Living habits Do exercise … (至少补充1点) 注意事项：1．必须包括提示内容，请补充要点，可适当发挥； 2．意思清楚，表达通顺，行文连贯，书写规范； 3．请勿在文中使用真实姓名和校名； 4．不少于80词。 ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 2．来自美国的Grace到你校交流学习，她参加了你们学校上周的“英语周”活动后收获很大。请你根据以下提示内容，帮助她完成一封e-mail，向她的美国同学们介绍上周“英语周”的相关情况。 Funny Invention 时间：周一下午 内容：用英语介绍一项发明 目的：练习英语口语 培养科学兴趣 English Corner 时间：周三上午 内容：用英语讲中国传统故事 目的：了解古人智慧 传播中国文化 Culture Talks 时间：周五下午 内容：分享教育交流 目的：…… (请补充) 要求：1. 80词左右(给出部分不计入总词数)； 2. 包含所有要点，可适当发挥，条理清晰，书写规范； 3. 文中不得出现真实姓名和校名； 4. 参考词汇：intelligence智慧 Dear classmates, I have been very happy in the junior high school in China.
