In her videos, she shows people around the museums across China. The blogger’s real name is Wang Yini. She is a post-95 girl from Jilin Province. She is interested in archaeology (考古学) from an early age. When she was little, her parents often took her to museums. These experiences of visiting museums gave her the idea of studying archaeology when she grew up. Wang started making videos about archaeology in 2020.

This makes it easier for them to understand what I say,” she said. Now Wang is a teacher in Liaoning University. She wants to train more talents in archaeology.

One is nature. It was considered to be the best teacher in the old days because man learned a lot from nature like lighting the fire and growing rice. It also provides man with many necessary things for life, such as water, food and so on. Hu, 31, is a pioneer in nature education. He set up an organization five years ago. It offers nature-based programs to children under 12 years old, including many outdoor activities, such as planting trees and watching birds. “Nature is friendly to us if we protect her. And don’t forget that we are all part of nature,” Hu said. The purpose (目的) of nature education is to teach people how to understand, respect and get on well with nature. Here comes the other important teacher—books. People learned from nature and wrote down the experiences in the form of books, because man could record their experiences and thoughts. Books play an important role in our lives. Su Mingjuan, a girl from a poor family in a small village, has finished college and has become a good bank clerk. She volunteers to encourage people to read more. She said, “Without reading books, I can’t have such a wonderful life.” Besides Su, millions of people learn from books and have better lives. Some people ever said, “A book is like a garden carried in the pocket (袋子).” 1．What does the passage mainly talk about? 2．According to Paragraph 2, what skill does nature teach us? (列举一项即可) 3．What’s the purpose of nature education? 4．How did people record their experiences and thoughts according to Paragraph 5? 5．What can you learn from Su Mingjuan’s story? Passage 2 （24-25八年级下·黑龙江省哈尔滨市香坊区·期末） Have you ever noticed a monster around us? It’s not big or scary, but it’s very dangerous. This monster comes in many forms (形式)—games, social media and TV shows. You may ask, “It brings us so much fun. So why do you say it’s a monster?” At first, we may all think, “I’ll just have a little fun.” We turn on the computer and start a game. But soon the monster takes over (接管). It starts to eat away our time, minute by minute. But we just sit there and look at the screen. We don’t notice it at all. We often get lost in the monster’s world like this. We become couch potatoes (老泡在电视机前的人) with sore necks and dry eyes. We miss out on sweet moments with loved ones. We are deaf to the real world. Just remember, too much fun also makes Jack a dull boy! The time-eating monster will always be there. But we can keep it away by having fun in a balanced (平衡的) way. So, stand up and leave the screens. Go outside, feel the sun on your face, and jog in the fresh air. Play tennis or go hiking with your friends. Talk about your day with your family. There is so much for you to do. The choice is ours. 根据短文内容回答问题。 1．In what forms does the time-eating monster often appear in front of us? 2．What also makes Jack a dull boy? 3．Can outdoor activities keep us away from the time-eating monster? Passage 3 （24-25八年级下·湖南省长沙市雨花区稻田中学·期末） 阅读下面短文，根据短文内容问题。 Labubu is a small soft toy with sharp (尖尖的) teeth. Pop Mart, a Chinese company, started selling it in 2019 under The Monsters series (怪兽系列), Pop Mart has fans all over the world. In the UK, people even got into fights over it in stores. Because of this, Pop Mart stopped selling Labubu in all 16 of its UK stores in May, the BBC said. Claire Carrillo is 24 years old and from the Philippines. She loves Pop Mart’s cute Cry Baby toy. Many people like the toys, too. Pop Mart has more than 530 stores around the world. In 2024, it made over 13.2 billion (十亿) yuan! Why do so many people love Pop Mart? One reason is the “big kid” trend (趋势). Many Gen Zers (Z世代) now like to do things that kids enjoy, like collecting toys. Pop Mart makes toys that people feel close to. For example, Carrillo loves the Cry Baby toy because she regards herself as a “crybaby” sometimes. Another reason is its “blind boxes”. A blind box is a surprise box. You do not know which toy you will get until you open it. This makes people want to buy more boxes to find different toys. Opening blind boxes is fun and makes life more exciting. It also helps people feel closer to each other. Amanda Lee, a 26-year-old from Singapore, likes to open Pop Mart’s blind boxes with her co workers (同事). “It’s just a fun little thing that we get to do together during our lunch breaks to relax,” Lee told Time magazine. 1．How much did Pop Mart make in 2024? 2．Why do so many people love Pop Mart? 3．Do people know which toy they will get until they open it? 4．How do people feel when opening blind boxes? 5．Do you like Pop Mart?

And this situation has made Sweden face the serious and special problem mentioned above. Sweden has begun buying much waste every year from other countries. Some countries depend heavily on landfills. In the United States where tons of rubbish was produced in the past, only about a small percent was recycled. As a result, more than half of their waste ended up in landfills. Sweden is now paid by Norway to take its waste away. Sweden not only gets money from other countries but also changes the waste into energy in Sweden, which provides electricity and heating for so many homes. It’s a win-win situation. Clever! Sweden is leading the way in waste management, but it is one of few. Most countries’ technology in dealing with waste needs improving. We live in a world that is full of rubbish like plastic bags and beer bottles. Sweden’s waste management offers a look into the future where countries can make money from their rubbish-and not just put it in the ocean or put it in landfills. 1．What does Sweden need now according to the text? (不超过10词) 2．Which country pays Sweden for taking its rubbish away? (不超过5词) 3．What does the writer mean by saying “but it is one of few” in the last paragraph? (不超过15词) Passage 3 （24-25八年级下·河北省石家庄桥西区第四十一中学·期末） 阅读下面短文，简略回答问题。 When it comes to endangered species (濒危物种), most of you may think of pandas. But did you know that bees are disappearing too? In 2016, the US Fish & Wildlife Service added seven bee species to the endangered species list. What if bees die out? Just in case they do, Japanese scientists have created a mini drone (无人机) to pollinate (给……授粉) plants, just like bees, reports CNN. The drone has a piece of horse hair with gel (凝胶) on it. The gel lets the drone go from flower to flower, picking up and dropping off pollen grains (花粉粒). The drone still needs to be improved. It cannot make honey or work without human help. The cost is also high—$100 (about 640 yuan) per drone. However, it’s still a meaningful exercise, because pollination (授粉) is important for humans. Without pollinators, fruit and vegetable production will drop worldwide by 23 percent, says The Lancet, a UK magazine. Bees are one of the most important pollinators, but their numbers are dropping quickly. Bee numbers in the US have dropped by 30 percent in the past five years according to Global Research, a Canadian research organization. The situation is similar in other countries. Although scientists are still trying to find the cause, there are several possible reasons. First of all, more farmers are using pesticide (杀虫剂). At the same time, global warming (全球变暖) has changed the bees’ living environment. In the future, scientists will use GPS and AI to improve the drones. 1．What do scientists do if bees die out? 2．Why does the drone still need to be improved? (写出一个答案即可) 3．What will happen to the fruit and vegetable production without pollinators? 4．How much have the bee numbers in the US dropped by in the past five years? 5．Please give another reason why bees are dying out.

One is nature. It was considered to be the best teacher in the old days because man learned a lot from nature like lighting the fire and growing rice. It also provides man with many necessary things for life, such as water, food and so on. Hu, 31, is a pioneer in nature education. He set up an organization five years ago. It offers nature-based programs to children under 12 years old, including many outdoor activities, such as planting trees and watching birds. “Nature is friendly to us if we protect her. And don’t forget that we are all part of nature,” Hu said. The purpose (目的) of nature education is to teach people how to understand, respect and get on well with nature. Here comes the other important teacher—books. People learned from nature and wrote down the experiences in the form of books, because man could record their experiences and thoughts. Books play an important role in our lives. Su Mingjuan, a girl from a poor family in a small village, has finished college and has become a good bank clerk. She volunteers to encourage people to read more. She said, “Without reading books, I can’t have such a wonderful life.” Besides Su, millions of people learn from books and have better lives.

Because of this, Pop Mart stopped selling Labubu in all 16 of its UK stores in May, the BBC said. Claire Carrillo is 24 years old and from the Philippines. She loves Pop Mart’s cute Cry Baby toy. Many people like the toys, too. Pop Mart has more than 530 stores around the world. In 2024, it made over 13.2 billion (十亿) yuan! Why do so many people love Pop Mart?

For example, Carrillo loves the Cry Baby toy because she regards herself as a “crybaby” sometimes. Another reason is its “blind boxes”. A blind box is a surprise box.

Passage 2 （24-25八年级下·安徽省蚌埠市五河县·期末） Sweden’s programme of producing energy from rubbish is so successful, but its success has also produced a surprising problem: There is simply not enough rubbish in this country. It has been reported that only a little of their rubbish goes into landfills (垃圾填埋场). The rest is recycled or more recently being reused as fuel (燃料) in their waste-to-energy factories that are able to deal with lots of rubbish every year. And this situation has made Sweden face the serious and special problem mentioned above. Sweden has begun buying much waste every year from other countries. Some countries depend heavily on landfills. In the United States where tons of rubbish was produced in the past, only about a small percent was recycled. As a result, more than half of their waste ended up in landfills. Sweden is now paid by Norway to take its waste away. Sweden not only gets money from other countries but also changes the waste into energy in Sweden, which provides electricity and heating for so many homes. It’s a win-win situation. Clever! Sweden is leading the way in waste management, but it is one of few. Most countries’ technology in dealing with waste needs improving. We live in a world that is full of rubbish like plastic bags and beer bottles. Sweden’s waste management offers a look into the future where countries can make money from their rubbish-and not just put it in the ocean or put it in landfills. 1．What does Sweden need now according to the text? (不超过10词) 2．Which country pays Sweden for taking its rubbish away? (不超过5词) 3．What does the writer mean by saying “but it is one of few” in the last paragraph? (不超过15词) 【答案】1．More rubbish/waste from other countries. 2．Norway. 3．Few countries have advanced waste management like Sweden. 【导语】本文主要介绍了瑞典通过垃圾回收和废物转化能源项目取得了巨大成功，但由于国内垃圾不足，不得不从其他国家进口垃圾来维持能源生产的情况。 【详解】1．根据第一段“There is simply not enough rubbish in this country”和第二段“Sweden has begun buying much waste every year from other countries”可知，瑞典现在需要更多的垃圾来维持其废物转化能源项目。故填More rubbish/waste from other countries. 2．根据第三段“Sweden is now paid by Norway to take its waste away”可知，挪威付费让瑞典处理其垃圾。故填Norway. 3．根据最后一段“Sweden is leading the way in waste management, but it is one of few”可知，作者的意思是瑞典在废物管理方面处于领先地位，但像瑞典这样做的国家很少。故填Few countries have advanced waste management like Sweden. Passage 3 （24-25八年级下·河北省石家庄桥西区第四十一中学·期末） 阅读下面短文，简略回答问题。 When it comes to endangered species (濒危物种), most of you may think of pandas. But did you know that bees are disappearing too? In 2016, the US Fish & Wildlife Service added seven bee species to the endangered species list. What if bees die out? Just in case they do, Japanese scientists have created a mini drone (无人机) to pollinate (给……授粉) plants, just like bees, reports CNN. The drone has a piece of horse hair with gel (凝胶) on it. The gel lets the drone go from flower to flower, picking up and dropping off pollen grains (花粉粒). The drone still needs to be improved. It cannot make honey or work without human help. The cost is also high—$100 (about 640 yuan) per drone. However, it’s still a meaningful exercise, because pollination (授粉) is important for humans. Without pollinators, fruit and vegetable production will drop worldwide by 23 percent, says The Lancet, a UK magazine. Bees are one of the most important pollinators, but their numbers are dropping quickly. Bee numbers in the US have dropped by 30 percent in the past five years according to Global Research, a Canadian research organization. The situation is similar in other countries. Although scientists are still trying to find the cause, there are several possible reasons. First of all, more farmers are using pesticide (杀虫剂). At the same time, global warming (全球变暖) has changed the bees’ living environment. In the future, scientists will use GPS and AI to improve the drones. 1．What do scientists do if bees die out? 2．Why does the drone still need to be improved? (写出一个答案即可) 3．What will happen to the fruit and vegetable production without pollinators? 4．How much have the bee numbers in the US dropped by in the past five years? 5．Please give another reason why bees are dying out. (答案需与文中答案不同) 【答案】1．They will/may create a mini drone to pollinate plants. / Create a mini drone to pollinate plants. 2．It cannot make honey. / It cannot work without human help. / The cost is high. 3．It will drop worldwide by 23 percent. 4．30 percent. 5．Habitat destruction. 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了蜜蜂数量锐减的现状、可能原因、授粉的重要性，以及科学家为应对蜜蜂灭绝而研发和计划改进迷你授粉无人机的相关情况。 1．根据“Just in case they do, Japanese scientists have created a mini drone to pollinate plants, just like bees, reports CNN.”可知，科学家会制造迷你无人机给植物授粉。故填They will/may create a mini drone to pollinate plants. / Create a mini drone to pollinate plants. 2．根据“The drone still needs to be improved. It cannot make honey or work without human help. The cost is also high—$100 (about 640 yuan) per drone.”可知，无人机仍需改进的原因有不能酿蜜、无法自主工作、成本很高。故填It cannot make honey. / It cannot work without human help. / The cost is high. 3．根据“Without pollinators, fruit and vegetable production will drop worldwide by 23 percent, says The Lancet.”可知，没有传粉者，水果和蔬菜的产量将在全球范围内下降23%。故填It will drop worldwide by 23 percent.   4．根据“Bee numbers in the US have dropped by 30 percent in the past five years according to Global Research, a Canadian research organization.”可知，在过去五年里，美国的蜜蜂数量下降了30%。故填30 percent.   5．开放性试题，答案除了文中提到的使用杀虫剂和全球变暖，蜜蜂灭绝的另一个原因可能是栖息地被破坏。故填Habitat destruction. / 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
