As a child, I would pull myself out of bed, my eyes half-closed, and watch my school uniform hanging in front of the bed. These days, I set several alarms to ensure I’m woken up. Interested in technology, I often test fascinating devices (electronic tools). Most are fun, but few really change my life for a long time. Sunrise alarm pillows, however, are different. They’ve become an important part of my morning life. My best choice, the sunrise alarm pillows, have greatly done me good. I’m waking up every day, full of energy. In fact, the pillow is a combination (结合) of alarm clock and light treatment device that shines with increasing brightness when it’s time for you to wake up. The light interacts (相互作用) with our natural sleep-wake cycle, much as the sun does when it rises. As a result, we wake up biologically prepared for the day. The sunrise alarm pillow also helps develop healthier sleep habits. In our tech-driven world, waking up often means checking our phones at once. An advantage of sunrise alarm clocks is that your morning wake-up no longer needs your phone. Setting a smartphone alarm means your day begins with eyes on screen. ________. Sleep is personal, and no single device fits everyone. But for me, the sunrise alarm pillow has been a game-changer. If you are fighting with dark mornings, it’s worth a try. After all, some morning people are made, not born. 1.I like the sunrise alarm pillows because ________. A.they offer me more time to sleep B.they can change all my bad habits C.they have a good influence on me D.they surprise me with super-high tech 2.What does the underlined phrase “biologically prepared” suggest (暗示)? A.Timely set out. B.Naturally woken up. C.Quite peaceful. D.Fully fresh and clear. 3.Which of the following can be put in ________? A.And it makes my morning full of phone time. B.However, most people still love their phones more. C.So I need to buy a new phone to match the pillow. D.But with this pillow, you can have a healthier morning. 4.What can we infer from the passage? A.The author used to be late for school in winter. B.Sunrise alarm pillows are widely used by people. C.Using a smartphone alarm may not be good for sleep habits. D.Sunrise alarm pillows will soon replace traditional alarm clocks. 5.What would be the best theme picture of the passage? A. B. C. D. Passage 2 (2025八年级下·湖北·期末). Getting a drone to Carry Your Coffee at the Great WallA tourist took a day trip to the Badaling section of the Great Wall in Beijing. While there, she ordered a cup of iced coffee using an app on her mobile phone. To her surprise, it was carried to her by a drone (无人机) in five minutes. This is available because of the rapid development of instant delivery (快递) services through drones in China.Robot Dog Carrying Rubbish Draws Attention On Mount Tai, a rubbish-collecting robot dog has recently reminded tourists to protect the environment. The four-legged robot has excellent ability to walk on the stairs, keeping balance even on wet or difficult ground, and shows great balance while climbing the mountain. It is also able to cross objects in the way. Besides, it can carry a weight of 120 kilograms at most with a battery (电池) life of four to six hours a time.________________________________ These days, DeepSeek has become the most downloaded and free AI app on Apple App Store in the world, followed by ChatGPT from DeepSeek OpenAI. What impresses the world is that both the number of chips and the number of developers on the team are lower than those of industry leaders.

A.China’s development in technology. B.China’s position in the AI field. C.The use of technology in tourism. D.Environmental protection. Passage 3 (2025八年级下·湖北武汉·期末)In a clear tank of water (水箱), fish are swimming happily. Wait a second, take a closer look at that blue one. It is actually a robot! This scene happened at an event, the World Digital Education Conference, from May 14th to 16th in Wuhan, Hubei province. Besides blue ones, there were red and yellow robotic fish, too. It is scientists at Wuhan University who have made them. At the length of about 53 centimeters, the fish were very lifelike. The joints (关节) in their heads and tails were made in a special way to let the fish move fast and easily. This is thanks to bionic engineering (仿生工程), which brings together nature and man-made things. “I love to see the bionic fish,” Professor James Crabbe from Oxford University told Jiupai News, “It could tell us much more about fish swarming and how fish behave (表现).” In fact, swarming in fish means they swim together in large groups. It helps them stay safe, find food and save energy (能量). Learning about swarming helps us understand how fish live and how changes in the environment matter to them. As for the pretty colors of the bionic fish, they come from the LED lights on their bodies, said People’s Daily. These lights can also make shadows, giving the underwater world a party feel. Even better, the bionic fish are smart. With the help of AI and sensors (传感器), they can “see” things in their way and learn to avoid them, said Changjiang Daily. The fish are already helping in the study of the Yangtze River’s water to help protect the environment. What amazing fish they are! 11.Which scene can be seen at the event in Wuhan? A. B. C. D. 12.What makes the bionic fish move fast and easily? A.Different colors. B.Special water tanks. C.Lifelike length. D.Body joints. 13.What can we know about swarming in fish? A.Swarming can keep fish free from any danger. B.Swarming makes it harder for fish to feed themselves. C.Swarming helps scientists learn about the habits of fish. D.Swarming may change the living environment of fish. 14.Which goal may be achieved with bionic fish? A.The quality of the Yangtze River’s water will be improved. B.More bridges over the Yangtze River have been built. C.Bionic fish take the place of fish in the Yangtze River. D.More ships begin to travel along the Yangtze River. 15.What might be the best title for the passage? A.Look! They’re dancing. B.Wait, that’s no fish! C.Stop! Don’t feed them. D.Hey, let’s try fishing! Passage 4 (2025八年级下·湖北武汉·期末) Solar (太阳能) Backpack Lights Up VillagesTwo engineers in Kenya invented a solar backpack. It uses sunlight to charge (充电) and can provide light for up to 12 hours. So far, 5,000 students in villages without electricity have received these backpacks. A teacher said, “Children can study in the dark with this light.” The project raised $1 million and planned to reach 20 countries by 2025. Tokyo’s New E-Waste Recycling AppA Tokyo company created a mobile app called “E-Cycle”. Users can exchange old electronics (电子设备), such as phones or computers, for coupons (优惠券). In six months, they collected 100 tons of e-waste, including 15,000 phones and 2,000 laptops. The CEO said, “We turn trash into useful materials.” Now, Seoul and Singapore are also using this method. ________A farm in California uses smart robots to grow vegetables. These robots have cameras to find pests and wild grass. The pesticide (杀虫剂) use drops by 70% and crop harvests rise a lot. The farm owner said, “They’re like 1,000 eco-friendly workers who never sleep.” Thirty farming companies have given money to this technology to fight food shortages. 16.In which SECTION of the newspaper can we read the news? A.EDUCATION. B.ENVIRONMENT. C.AMUSEMENT. D.CULTURE. 17.What is the main use of the solar backpack? A.To keep sunlight to make light. B.To give gifts to city students. C.To win a design competition.

Soon, you’ll get the story of Max, a cat who is on his way to sing among the stars. This robot tool is real. It’s called ChatGPT, created by the US company OpenAI. ②ChatGPT can not only write bedtime stories, but also can talk with people and write songs, poems and even jokes. It’s one of the most powerful AI tools. ③People around the world have tried ChatGPT and shared their results online. Some use it to write history articles and some ask it to take notes (做笔记) or get advice on how to talk to others at parties. ④However, some schools in the US, Australia, and France have banned (禁止) the use of ChatGPT. Teachers worry that students might use it to cheat on homework. Others worry that ChatGPT could be used to provide improper information. ⑤“It does not teach critical-thinking (批判思维) and problem-solving skills,” said Jenna Lyle, “This causes many problems, like copying others’ writing without permission. Also, since ChatGPT learns from the Internet, it sometimes repeats (重复) unfair ideas about certain groups of people.” 21.The writer starts the passage by ________. A.comparing facts B.making a survey C.giving an example D.explaining reasons 22.Paragraph 3 is mainly about the ________ of ChatGPT. A.uses B.future C.problems D.challenges 23.Some schools in the US banned the use of ChatGPT because ________. A.teachers worry about their students’ health B.students can’t bring their phones to school C.students may use it to cheat on homework D.students use it to take notes in class 24.Which is the right structure (结构) of the passage? (①=Paragraph 1  ②=Paragraph 2, …) A. B. C. D. 25.Which part of a magazine is the passage from? A.Beauty. B.Technology. C.History. D.Nature. Passage 2 (2025八年级下·湖北·期末)You might think math and art are very different. However, they have many surprising relations. Understanding these links can help students learn better by mixing different subjects. First, let’s talk about the golden ratio (比例), a special number in math. It’s about 1.618 and appears in many artworks. For example, artists use it to create balanced and beautiful paintings. Take Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa as an example. The way Mona Lisa is placed in the picture follows the golden ratio. When you learn about this ratio in math class and then see it in art, you understand both subjects more deeply. Geometry (几何学), another area of math, is also important in art. Shapes and angles help artists draw things that look real. In Leonardo da Vinci’s drawing Vitruvian Man, circles and squares show how math can measure (测量) the human body. By studying geometry in art, students learn to notice shapes more carefully. Besides, modern buildings also use geometric shapes creatively, like the spiral (螺旋形) design of the Guggenheim Museum. * Scientists use numbers to describe different colors. The RGB color model uses numbers for red, green, and blue. Artists use this to mix the right colors for their paintings. When students learn about color models in science and apply them in art, they become more creative. They can even use simple rules to pick colors for digital art, connecting technology, math, and art. Studying math and art together not only improves their skills in both subjects but also helps them to think in new ways. Next time you draw a picture or solve a math problem, remember: math and art are like two sides of one coin. 26.According to the passage, what can the golden ratio help artists do? A.Take beautiful photos. B.Create balanced paintings. C.Choose right colors. D.Measure the human body. 27.What is the main purpose of Paragraph 3? A.To show the history of geometry. B.To introduce Leonardo da Vinci’s works. C.To explain how geometry helps in art. D.To compare different art styles. 28.Which of the following can be put in * . A.However, artists never use math in choosing colors. B.Math even plays a role in the world of colors. C.Students should learn more about colors in art class. D.Scientists and artists always work together. 29.What does the underlined word “apply” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A.Use. B.Change. C.Forget. D.Teach. 30.Which would be the best theme (主题) picture of the passage? A. B. C. D. Passage 3 (2025八年级下·湖北武汉·期末) Meet people from the past “Look in my eyes!” “Tell me why!” Have you found yourself listening to ancient people talking online these days? Creative vloggers are using an AI tool named Jimeng to bring famous people in old times, like Li Bai and Du Fu from the Tang Dynasty back to life. These videos use a more modern way to let ancient people “speak for themselves”. “The videos make me want to learn more about those important ancient people, such as Wen Zhengming and Tang Bohu. I didn’t know much about their stories before,” said Wang Jiayi, 15, from Shandong. Enjoy a driverless ride Robotaxi is a self-driving service created by Baidu, a well-known Chinese tech company. It uses advanced (先进的) technology like cameras and sensors to “see” the road. People don’t need to drive themselves. Just book a ride on your phone, and the self-driving car will pick you up and take you to the place safely. It saves time and makes traveling easier. According to the report, it can also help cut down the number of car accidents and deaths caused by careless drivers. _______________ Recently, OpenAI has introduced Sora, the latest tool in the AI space which can make vivid short videos from some keywords written by users. In education, it can help students better understand abstract (抽象的) knowledge. Sora in creative fields, like film-making and advertising, can cut costs and improve efficiency (效率). In healthcare, it provides realistic medical training scenes. However, Sora also brings problems like misinformation from deep fake videos. But overall, it offers more benefits (益处) for the development of society. 31.In which SECTION of the newspaper can we read the news? A.SCIENCE. B.NATURE. C.SPORTS. D.CULTURE. 32.Which of the famous people may Wang Jiayi see in the fun videos?     ① Li Bai     ②Du Fu     ③Tang Bohu     ④ Wen Zhengming A.①② B.①③ C.②④ D.③④ 33.What can we know about Robotaxi? A.It may cause more car crashes by mistake. B.The car has two eyes to see the road clearly. C.It helps to make people’s life easier and safer. D.It shows the slow development of technology. 34.What can be best heading for the third piece of news? A.Huge changes of AI B.Make a creative video C.Text-to-video programs D.Develop useful tools 35.What do the three tools in the news have in common? A.They are popular with users of all ages. B.They can cut costs and improve efficiency. C.They are all used to make videos and films. D.They benefit people in many different ways. 主题03 人与自然——自然景观与动植物 Passage 1 (2025八年级下·湖北黄石·期末)There are many lakes in China. Today, let’s learn something about lakes.

One is called “New Year Plant Hunt”. It is from December 29 to January 1. This activity invites people to go out and report which plants are flowering in their area. The results can help experts learn about the growth of plants in different places. They also help them understand the impact (影响) of climate change. The other activity is called “12 Days Wild”. From December 25 to January 5, people can do one thing about the wild a day. These things include watching or helping wildlife. If it is snowy, you can go on a winter walk and look for animals’ footprints. If it is too cold or wet to go outside, you can do some indoor activities. For example, you can draw some pictures about wildlife or make some New Year’s resolutions to help nature. If you want to have a try at either of these winter activities, you can look for more information about “New Year Plant Hunt” and “12 Days Wild” online.

That’s Mimosa pudica. When touched, its leaves fold up fast, as if it’s feeling shy. Why does this happen? Each leaf has a special part called the “leaf pillow (叶枕)”. When you touch the leaves, the water inside this part quickly moves to other parts of the plant. With less water, it gets soft, causing the leaves to fold up. This also protects it from small animals that try to eat it. Storing Water inside Trunks     Have you ever heard of baobab trees? These trees have super-fat trunks (树干) that look like big bottles. They live in hot, dry places. So they store lots of water inside their trunks to stay alive. They are also among the longest-living plants. It’s said that they can live for thousands of years. These trees are also very useful. People can eat their sweet fruit. Also, the leaves can be used to make food or medicine. _________________     The epiphyllum, also known as the “beauty under the moon”, is truly a wonder. It only blooms (开花) at night with large beautiful white petals (花瓣). When it blooms, it gives off a sweet smell that fills the air. What makes it even more amazing is its short blooming time—it only lasts for about 3 to 4 hours. That’s why people use the saying “a flash in the pan” to describe something that’s beautiful but doesn’t last long. 46.In which SECTION of the newspaper can we read the news? A.LIFESTYLE. B.WILDLIFE. C.WORLD. D.NATURE. 47.Why do the leaves of Mimosa pudica fold up when touched? A.Light makes its leaves fold. B.The plant is afraid of people. C.Water moves inside the plant.

A.Growing in the Dark B.Blooming in a Flash C.Smelling Very Sweet D.Enjoying a Moment 50.What does the above news focus on? A.Amazing plants. B.New findings. C.Special flowers. D.Wild beauty. Passage 4 (2025八年级下·湖北武汉·期末)The United Nations (UN) has decided that 2025 is the year of glacier preservation (保护) . It has also set March 21, 2025 as the first yearly World Day for Glaciers. The goal is to encourage everyone to help save glaciers. Glaciers are made of ice and snow that slowly move over land. A glacier starts with a snowflake. Over time, the snow adds up and turns into glacier ice. Glaciers have shaped mountains and valleys over Earth’s history. They are still moving and changing land in many places today. ★ When glaciers melt (融化), they provide nutrients (养料) for lakes, rivers and oceans. These nutrients support the lives along the way and form a perfect food chain. In some places, glaciers even help create homes for plants and animals. The UN says there are about 200, 000 glaciers in the world, covering 10 percent of the land. They also hold 70 percent of earth’s fresh water. In areas like the Himalayas, millions of people depend on glaciers for water. These glaciers also feed big rivers, such as the Indus, Ganges and Brahmaputra. Climate (气候) changes are leading to serious problems for glaciers. Many glaciers have disappeared. For example, Colombia has lost 90 percent of its glaciers since the mid-19th century. If temperatures rise by 1.5 to 4 degrees, glaciers could lose a lot of their weight by the year 2100. This would mean there will be less water for us to drink and farm, while floods may happen more often because of melting ice. It would also be bad for animals and humans. Also, when glaciers melt, it also changes how the sunlight is reflected (反射). This can make a big difference to the whole climate. So people from all over the world are trying out smart ways to help cool them down. 51.In which picture can we see glaciers? A. B. C. D. 52.Which of the following can be put in ★ ? A.Scientists are trying to slow down the melting. B.Glaciers are important for the life on the earth. C.Glaciers are melting quickly for many reasons. D.Human activities are the main cause of glaciers melting. 53.What big question does Paragraph 4 answer? A.How will many glaciers be lost? B.How can people care for glaciers? C.Where do glaciers come from? D.Why are glaciers disappearing? 54.According to the text, glaciers are NOT able to ________. A.make a difference to the whole climate B.make temperature rise and floods happen C.offer rich nutrients to human and wildlife D.feed big rivers, lakes and seas on the earth 55.What would the author write about after the last paragraph? A.The benefits of getting cool. B.The dangers of melting glaciers. C.The ways of protecting glaciers. D.The process of shaping glaciers. Passage 5 (2025八年级下·湖北武汉·期末) The Dead Sea could die     I’m not a sea but a lake. And I’m not dead. In fact, I’ve got many plants and animals. I’m saltier than any sea, so people can lie on my surface. Rivers flow into me. But now people take too much water from them. My water level is going down. I am becoming smaller year by year. Take less water, or I’ll dry up within the next 100 years. Then I really will be dead! Rainforest—forest rain I’m the rainforest of Madagascar. As my name suggests, I make rain for my plants and animals, such as monkeys, snakes and many kinds of flowers. For 80% of them, I’m their only home in the world. However, people are cutting down my trees for wood and to make space for farming. Please stop it. I’m disappearing. If Frozen turns into Waterworld... I’m a glacier (冰川) at the Glacier National Park in America. It’s a land full of ice and snow. Do you want to explore the white world in the film Frozen? Then my home is the best choice. Two hundred years ago, there were about 150 glaciers. But now, there are around 25. Please stop climate change. I’m turning into Waterworld! 56.The water level of the Dead Sea going down because ________. A.people take too much water from the rivers flowing into it B.the sun is too hot and the water goes quickly C.too many people lie on its surface every day D.many plants and animals live in it 57.What are people doing to the rainforest of Madagascar?

Do you feel sorry when you have to tell people that you really can’t help them? And do you often pretend (假装) to agree with people even though you think differently? If you answered “yes” to these questions, you may be a “people-pleaser”. ②Being friendly and helpful is a good thing. It helps you build friendships. However, trying to please others without considering your own happiness can make you stressed. Luckily, there are some steps that you can take to stop being a people-pleaser. ③To start with, it’s important to know your limits and make “boundaries (界限)” in your life. Be clear about what you would like to do. You can also tell others that you are only available for a certain period of time. ④When someone asks you for help, tell him or her that you need some time to think about it. Use this time to ask yourself: Do you really want to do this? How much time will it take? By giving yourself some time to think, you’ll be better able to truly decide if it’s something you have the interest and time to do. ⑤People always try to please others because they have little confidence (自信) in themselves. They don’t consider their own need and interest. In this situation, you can try meaningful self-talk. Remind yourself that you have dreams, too. You don’t have to waste your time to do things that don’t bring you joy. ⑥Making a sudden change can be hard, so start by taking small steps. You may, for example, send a message to say “no”. Then, continue to say “no” face to face. Practice this in kinds of situations, such as talking to a salesperson or ordering at a restaurant. ⑦Stopping being a people-pleaser doesn’t mean you have to give up being kind and helpful altogether. You can still do good things, but on your own situations. 61.The writer starts the passage by ________.

Passage 2 (2025八年级下·湖北随州·期末)Some people think only school children do not agree with their parents. However, it is not true. Communication is a problem for parents and children of all ages. If it’s hard for you to communicate with your parents, don’t worry about it. Here is some advice for you to bridge the generation gap (代沟). Don’t argue with your parents. Don’t get to your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably won’t consider your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you can’t express yourself well if you are angry. Go somewhere to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you don’t think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter. Try to reach a compromise (和解). Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Michael’s mother didn’t agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days. Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong. Talk about your values. The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care about, and why. Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life. A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person. It is worth having a try! 66.Your parents probably won’t consider your ideas if you ________. A.don’t get to them often B.write a letter to them C.don’t speak to them politely D.express yourself well 67.What are good ways to bridge the generation gap? ①Don’t argue with your parents.  ②Try to reach a compromise.  ③Talk about your values.   ④Always agree with your parents.

C.Agree with them all the time. D.Show respect to them. 70.What is the best title for the passage? A.A Generation Gap B.Show Love and Respect to Children C.Good Ways to Bridge the Generation Gap D.Serious Problems in Families Today Passage 3 (2025八年级下·湖北襄阳·期末)Do you know that we also do communication with ourselves from time to time? Picture this: Your mom asks you what you would like for breakfast. Many foods come to your mind: pancakes, bread, porridge... Until you tell your mom what you want to eat, you are communicating with yourself. We call it interpersonal communication (自我沟通). This can be talking with classmates, reading books, writing your homework, thinking to ourselves, understanding a difficult math problem, and remembering something. Interpersonal communication plays a big role in our lives. Good interpersonal communication allows you to understand yourself better. When you’re comfortable with who you are, and you know what you want, you can better get on with yourself. Also, interpersonal communication helps you to keep an eye on your thoughts and feelings. When you find that your mind is full of negative (负面) thoughts and feelings, and they make you sad, you will try to cheer up and forget about these unhappy things. What’s more, interpersonal communication helps with your communication with others at school. Understanding your thoughts and feelings better allows you to put yourself in others’ shoes when you talk to or listen to them. Then, you can better understand and get on with them. 71.How does the writer begin to explain his idea in Paragraph 1? A.By showing some facts. B.By providing numbers. C.By giving an example.

They are made from fresh noodles mixed with sesame paste, soy sauce (酱油), and other tasty ingredients. Many people in Wuhan start their day with a bowl of hot dry noodles because they are delicious and cheap. What makes hot dry noodles unique is their special smell and flavor (风味). The sesame paste gives the noodles a rich taste, while the chili oil adds a little something different. Some people also like to add pickled vegetables (泡菜) or green onions for wonderful flavor. Every bite makes you want to eat more! I first tried hot dry noodles when I visited Wuhan last year. At first, I was unsure about the dark color, but after one bite, I fell in love with them. The owner of the noodle shop taught me how to mix the noodles properly so that every part would be covered with sauce. It was an unforgettable experience! Now, whenever I think of Wuhan, I remember the wonderful taste of hot dry noodles. They are not just food but also a part of the city’s culture. If you have a visit to Wuhan some day, don’t forget to try this amazing dish! 1.Which do you think is “the sesame paste” like most? A. B. C. D. 2.Why do people in Wuhan like eating Reganmian?

Passage 2 (2025八年级下·湖北武汉·期末)The Chinese animation (动画) Ne Zha: Demon Child Conquers the Sea (also called Ne Zha 2) has broken global records of animation. This shows the growing success and future of China’s film industry (产业), as reported by China Daily. One of the main reasons why Ne Zha 2 is popular is its amazing visuals (视觉效果) and exciting storyline. The film includes 2,427 scenes, with 1,948 needing special effects (特效)—a huge job for any team. As a result, 138 Chinese animation studios (large or small) and over 4,000 professionals (专业人士) worked on the project, Beijing Daily reported. Red Whale Studios from Suzhou played an important role in finishing a quarter of the making of the film—a team of 160 artists worked day and night for 26 months to create exciting scenes. Yang Yu (also known as Jiaozi) shared that they considered using foreign teams for special effects at first, but the results didn’t bring them satisfaction. ★ A great example is Fantawild Animation from Shenzhen. It created the breathtaking waterfall in the forest fighting scene. Waterfalls are challenging to animate because of their size and always changing movement. To make it look real, the team used best technology with 50 high-powered computers. In the movie, Ne Zha says, “If there’s no way ahead, I will create one.” Similarly, the 138 Chinese animation studios joined forces to push Chinese animation, showing the industry’s talent and creativity. 6.What does “this” refer to? A.The achievement of Ne Zha 2. B.The report by China Daily. C.The Chinese film industry. D.The future of animation. 7.The numbers in paragraph 2 show the making of the film is ________.

The team is called Linchun Jieqi, which means “spring is coming” and “very pretty”. It has 15 young designers. The team leader is a 19-year-old girl, Cai Chenhan. It sold thousands of qipao in the first three years, and even some qipao were sold abroad. Cai grew up in a family that made qipao, learning the skills from her mother and grandmother. Her dream was always to be a designer, so she chose to study design: to continue the family tradition. All the team members are young people. They bring modern factors (因素) and beautiful designs to traditional qipao, making it catch young people’s eye more easily. They use new skills to create beautiful pictures and styles. Most of Cai’s team members are her classmates. They work together with foreign students on fashion projects. They use international students as models at school fashion shows. Their success came from creating a large database (数据库) of qipao designs. Traditionally, pictures were hand-drawn. Now, they train AI models to make new designs. This sped up the design process from weeks to days. Cai’s qipao can be bought in eight countries now, with stores mainly in Southeast Asia. Customers can order custom-made qipao, choose pictures online and get it in a few days. The team’s influence has spread to other universities in Hangzhou.

Passage 4 (2025八年级下·湖北·期末)Built over 2,200 years ago in the Qin Dynasty, the Dujiangyan Irrigation System (都江堰水利工程) is one of the oldest and most famous water projects in the world. In ancient times, the Min River often flooded (during rainy seasons in the Chengdu Plain (成都平原)). In order to make better use of the river water and solve the problem of floods and droughts (干旱), the Dujiangyan Irrigation System was built in 256 BC, which was designed by ancient Chinese engineer Li Bing. The system divides the Min River into two parts: the inner part and the outer part, which play different roles in dry and rainy seasons. During dry seasons, 60% of the river water runs into the inner part to water farms. In rainy seasons, the outer part carries 60% of the water, protecting the Chengdu Plain against floods. By changing the river way, the system cleverly controls the water. However, as water keeps running through, it leaves behind-lots of silt. So, it’s necessary to dig and clean the riverbed every year. When Dujiangyan was first built, Li Bing put Shima (stone horse) in the riverbed. It served as a ruler and told people how deep to dig when cleaning the riverbed. In Ming Dynasty, the first Wotie (lying iron stick) appeared and took the place of Shima. In dry seasons, people cleaned away part of the earth and sand from the riverbed. When they dug down and reached the Wotie, they knew they could stop. The tradition of digging the riverbed has been lasting for over 2,000 years. People continued to repair Dujiangyan, and new Woties were placed in the riverbed. Today, four Woties lie side by side underwater, which were made in different ages from Ming Dynasty to the new China. Although workers have better tools now, these iron sticks are still powerful symbols of ancient wisdom (智慧). They carry ancient people’s messages through over 2, 000 years, which are passed down to modern and future generations (一代人) . 16.Which is true about the Dujiangyang Irrigation System? A.It is less than 2,000 years old. B.It was built by Chinese engineer Li Bing. C.It stops the Min River. D.It helps control the water from the Min River. 17.What is paragraph 2 mainly about?

Passage 2 (2025八年级下·湖北襄阳·期末)Throughout our daily lives, we can always hear voices reminding us to drink water. Teachers ask us to drink water during breaks and health experts say that water can improve our skin and help manage our weight. But a common question remains: how much water should we actually take in? For a long time, many people have stuck to the “8×8 rule,” believing that drinking eight glasses of water, eight times a day, is perfect. This idea, however, came from a misunderstanding. In 1945, scientists suggested drinking an amount (数量) of water for how much food we eat. That’s about eight glasses every day. But the truth is, different people need very different amounts of water every day. For example, a sportsman who trains for hours might need much more water than someone who spends most of the day sitting at a desk. Our weight, age and how active we are all decide how much water we need. So, do we need to strictly control how much water we drink? Dr Stanley Goldfarb doesn’t think so. Our body has a great self-control system. When our body needs water, we feel thirsty, a clear sign to drink up. Also, our body can save water well and start working before we feel thirsty. Water offers many benefits (益处). It helps keep our body temperature normal, take away waste in the body and protect our joints (关节). In short, your body is very smart.

Passage 3 (2025八年级下·湖北黄石·期末)It is said that doing physical exercise can make our brain work better, but I wanted to know if that was true. Maybe it could be the answer to getting good grades at school. To find out about it, we decided to make a memory (记忆力) test. We took 25 different things from around the house and covered them up with a towel (毛巾). Next, we asked eight of our friends to take a test. We took away the towel and gave them one minute to look at the things. When the minute was up, we covered the things again and asked them to write down as many things as they could remember. Then we made our friends into two groups. One group sat down and played easy chess games. We called it “TEAM SIT”. The other group went out for a few miles. We named it “TEAM MOVE”. At the same time, we put new things in the test. After 10 minutes, both teams took a second test with the new things. We graded all the tests, giving one point for each right answer. Then we watched how each team’s score changed. The TEAM SIT’s average (平均) score went down by 2 points. The other team’s average score went up by 4 points. The difference wasn’t too big. But the team that exercised had better memory test scores. So next time, I might go out and take a long run before I study for a test! 56.What is the meaning of “physical exercise” in paragraph 1?

Interested in technology, I often test fascinating devices (electronic tools). Most are fun, but few really change my life for a long time. Sunrise alarm pillows, however, are different. They’ve become an important part of my morning life. My best choice, the sunrise alarm pillows, have greatly done me good. I’m waking up every day, full of energy. In fact, the pillow is a combination (结合) of alarm clock and light treatment device that shines with increasing brightness when it’s time for you to wake up. The light interacts (相互作用) with our natural sleep-wake cycle, much as the sun does when it rises. As a result, we wake up biologically prepared for the day. The sunrise alarm pillow also helps develop healthier sleep habits. In our tech-driven world, waking up often means checking our phones at once. An advantage of sunrise alarm clocks is that your morning wake-up no longer needs your phone. Setting a smartphone alarm means your day begins with eyes on screen. ________. Sleep is personal, and no single device fits everyone. But for me, the sunrise alarm pillow has been a game-changer. If you are fighting with dark mornings, it’s worth a try. After all, some morning people are made, not born. 1.I like the sunrise alarm pillows because ________. A.they offer me more time to sleep B.they can change all my bad habits C.they have a good influence on me D.they surprise me with super-high tech 2.What does the underlined phrase “biologically prepared” suggest (暗示)?

However, they have many surprising relations. Understanding these links can help students learn better by mixing different subjects. First, let’s talk about the golden ratio (比例), a special number in math. It’s about 1.618 and appears in many artworks. For example, artists use it to create balanced and beautiful paintings. Take Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa as an example. The way Mona Lisa is placed in the picture follows the golden ratio. When you learn about this ratio in math class and then see it in art, you understand both subjects more deeply. Geometry (几何学), another area of math, is also important in art. Shapes and angles help artists draw things that look real. In Leonardo da Vinci’s drawing Vitruvian Man, circles and squares show how math can measure (测量) the human body. By studying geometry in art, students learn to notice shapes more carefully. Besides, modern buildings also use geometric shapes creatively, like the spiral (螺旋形) design of the Guggenheim Museum. * Scientists use numbers to describe different colors. The RGB color model uses numbers for red, green, and blue. Artists use this to mix the right colors for their paintings. When students learn about color models in science and apply them in art, they become more creative. They can even use simple rules to pick colors for digital art, connecting technology, math, and art. Studying math and art together not only improves their skills in both subjects but also helps them to think in new ways. Next time you draw a picture or solve a math problem, remember: math and art are like two sides of one coin. 26.According to the passage, what can the golden ratio help artists do? A.Take beautiful photos. B.Create balanced paintings. C.Choose right colors. D.Measure the human body. 27.What is the main purpose of Paragraph 3? A.To show the history of geometry. B.To introduce Leonardo da Vinci’s works. C.To explain how geometry helps in art. D.To compare different art styles. 28.Which of the following can be put in * . A.However, artists never use math in choosing colors. B.Math even plays a role in the world of colors. C.Students should learn more about colors in art class. D.Scientists and artists always work together. 29.What does the underlined word “apply” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A.Use. B.Change. C.Forget. D.Teach. 30.Which would be the best theme (主题) picture of the passage? A. B. C. D. 【答案】26.B 27.C 28.B 29.A 30.D 【导语】本文探讨了数学与艺术的联系,通过黄金比例、几何学和色彩模型等例子,说明跨学科学习如何提升理解力和创造力。 26.细节理解题。根据第2段“For example, artists use it to create balanced and beautiful paintings.”可知,黄金比例帮助创作平衡的画作。故选B。 27.推理判断题。根据“Geometry (几何学), another area of math, is also important in art. Shapes and angles help artists draw things that look real....”及第3段可知,本段通过《维特鲁威人》和古根海姆博物馆等例子,说明几何学如何辅助艺术创作。故选C。 28.推理判断题。根据“Scientists use numbers to describe different colors. The RGB color model uses numbers for red, green, and blue.”可知,本段讲的是数学在色彩领域的应用,B项“数学甚至在色彩世界中也扮演着重要的角色。”符合语境。故选B。 29.词句猜测题。根据第4段“When students learn about color models in science and apply them in art, they become more creative.

That’s Mimosa pudica. When touched, its leaves fold up fast, as if it’s feeling shy. Why does this happen? Each leaf has a special part called the “leaf pillow (叶枕)”. When you touch the leaves, the water inside this part quickly moves to other parts of the plant. With less water, it gets soft, causing the leaves to fold up. This also protects it from small animals that try to eat it. Storing Water inside Trunks     Have you ever heard of baobab trees? These trees have super-fat trunks (树干) that look like big bottles. They live in hot, dry places. So they store lots of water inside their trunks to stay alive. They are also among the longest-living plants. It’s said that they can live for thousands of years. These trees are also very useful. People can eat their sweet fruit. Also, the leaves can be used to make food or medicine. _________________     The epiphyllum, also known as the “beauty under the moon”, is truly a wonder. It only blooms (开花) at night with large beautiful white petals (花瓣). When it blooms, it gives off a sweet smell that fills the air. What makes it even more amazing is its short blooming time—it only lasts for about 3 to 4 hours. That’s why people use the saying “a flash in the pan” to describe something that’s beautiful but doesn’t last long. 46.In which SECTION of the newspaper can we read the news? A.LIFESTYLE. B.WILDLIFE. C.WORLD. D.NATURE. 47.Why do the leaves of Mimosa pudica fold up when touched? A.Light makes its leaves fold. B.The plant is afraid of people. C.Water moves inside the plant.

It has also set March 21, 2025 as the first yearly World Day for Glaciers. The goal is to encourage everyone to help save glaciers. Glaciers are made of ice and snow that slowly move over land. A glacier starts with a snowflake. Over time, the snow adds up and turns into glacier ice. Glaciers have shaped mountains and valleys over Earth’s history. They are still moving and changing land in many places today. ★ When glaciers melt (融化), they provide nutrients (养料) for lakes, rivers and oceans. These nutrients support the lives along the way and form a perfect food chain. In some places, glaciers even help create homes for plants and animals. The UN says there are about 200, 000 glaciers in the world, covering 10 percent of the land. They also hold 70 percent of earth’s fresh water. In areas like the Himalayas, millions of people depend on glaciers for water. These glaciers also feed big rivers, such as the Indus, Ganges and Brahmaputra. Climate (气候) changes are leading to serious problems for glaciers. Many glaciers have disappeared. For example, Colombia has lost 90 percent of its glaciers since the mid-19th century. If temperatures rise by 1.5 to 4 degrees, glaciers could lose a lot of their weight by the year 2100. This would mean there will be less water for us to drink and farm, while floods may happen more often because of melting ice. It would also be bad for animals and humans. Also, when glaciers melt, it also changes how the sunlight is reflected (反射). This can make a big difference to the whole climate. So people from all over the world are trying out smart ways to help cool them down. 51.In which picture can we see glaciers? A. B. C. D. 52.Which of the following can be put in ★ ? A.Scientists are trying to slow down the melting. B.Glaciers are important for the life on the earth. C.Glaciers are melting quickly for many reasons. D.Human activities are the main cause of glaciers melting. 53.What big question does Paragraph 4 answer? A.How will many glaciers be lost? B.How can people care for glaciers? C.Where do glaciers come from? D.Why are glaciers disappearing? 54.According to the text, glaciers are NOT able to ________. A.make a difference to the whole climate B.make temperature rise and floods happen C.offer rich nutrients to human and wildlife D.feed big rivers, lakes and seas on the earth 55.What would the author write about after the last paragraph? A.The benefits of getting cool. B.The dangers of melting glaciers. C.The ways of protecting glaciers. D.The process of shaping glaciers. 【答案】51.A 52.B 53.D 54.B 55.C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文,围绕冰川展开,介绍了冰川的形成、作用、面临的问题等。 51.细节理解题。根据“Glaciers are made of ice and snow that slowly move over land. A glacier starts with a snowflake.”可知,冰川由在陆地上缓慢移动的冰和雪构成。冰川始于一片雪花。选项A的图片符合,故选A。 52.推理判断题。根据“★”后面的内容“When glaciers melt (融化), they provide nutrients (养料) for lakes, rivers and oceans...These glaciers also feed big rivers, such as the Indus, Ganges and Brahmaputra.”可知,本段主要阐述了冰川对地球上生命的重要性,故选B。 53.主旨大意题。根据“Climate (气候) changes are leading to serious problems for glaciers. Many glaciers have disappeared.”可知,第四段回答的是冰川为什么正在消失的问题,故选D。 54.细节理解题。根据“When glaciers melt (融化), they provide nutrients (养料) for lakes, rivers and oceans. … These glaciers also feed big rivers, such as the Indus, Ganges and Brahmaputra.”以及“when glaciers melt, it also changes how the sunlight is reflected (反射). This can make a big difference to the whole climate.”可知,冰川融化会带来洪水等问题,而不是使温度上升和引发洪水,故选B。 55.推理判断题。文章前面介绍了冰川的重要性、面临消失的问题及带来的影响,最后一段提到人们在尝试让冰川降温,接下来应该会写保护冰川的方法,故选C。 Passage 5 (2025八年级下·湖北武汉·期末) The Dead Sea could die     I’m not a sea but a lake.

Do you feel sorry when you have to tell people that you really can’t help them? And do you often pretend (假装) to agree with people even though you think differently? If you answered “yes” to these questions, you may be a “people-pleaser”. ②Being friendly and helpful is a good thing. It helps you build friendships. However, trying to please others without considering your own happiness can make you stressed. Luckily, there are some steps that you can take to stop being a people-pleaser. ③To start with, it’s important to know your limits and make “boundaries (界限)” in your life. Be clear about what you would like to do. You can also tell others that you are only available for a certain period of time. ④When someone asks you for help, tell him or her that you need some time to think about it. Use this time to ask yourself: Do you really want to do this? How much time will it take? By giving yourself some time to think, you’ll be better able to truly decide if it’s something you have the interest and time to do. ⑤People always try to please others because they have little confidence (自信) in themselves. They don’t consider their own need and interest. In this situation, you can try meaningful self-talk. Remind yourself that you have dreams, too. You don’t have to waste your time to do things that don’t bring you joy. ⑥Making a sudden change can be hard, so start by taking small steps. You may, for example, send a message to say “no”. Then, continue to say “no” face to face. Practice this in kinds of situations, such as talking to a salesperson or ordering at a restaurant. ⑦Stopping being a people-pleaser doesn’t mean you have to give up being kind and helpful altogether. You can still do good things, but on your own situations. 61.The writer starts the passage by ________. A.giving examples B.asking questions C.telling stories D.answering questions 62.According to the passage, what can people do to stop being a people-pleaser? a.

However, it is not true. Communication is a problem for parents and children of all ages. If it’s hard for you to communicate with your parents, don’t worry about it. Here is some advice for you to bridge the generation gap (代沟). Don’t argue with your parents. Don’t get to your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably won’t consider your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you can’t express yourself well if you are angry. Go somewhere to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you don’t think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter. Try to reach a compromise (和解). Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Michael’s mother didn’t agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days. Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong. Talk about your values. The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care about, and why. Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life. A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person. It is worth having a try! 66.Your parents probably won’t consider your ideas if you ________. A.don’t get to them often B.write a letter to them C.don’t speak to them politely D.express yourself well 67.What are good ways to bridge the generation gap? ①Don’t argue with your parents.  ②Try to reach a compromise.  ③Talk about your values.   ④Always agree with your parents. A.①②③ B.②③④ C.①③④ D.①②④ 68.The underlined phrase “cool off ” in the passage means “________”. A.calm down B.stay away from C.come down D.put off 69.How can you reach a compromise with your parents according to the passage? A.Have a talk with them often. B.Keep away from them. C.Agree with them all the time. D.Show respect to them. 70.What is the best title for the passage? A.A Generation Gap B.Show Love and Respect to Children C.Good Ways to Bridge the Generation Gap D.Serious Problems in Families Today 【答案】66.C 67.A 68.A 69.D 70.C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲述了如何消除父母与孩子之间的代沟问题,并提供了具体的建议。 66.细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Your parents probably won’t consider your ideas if you are shouting at them.”可推知,不礼貌地说话会导致父母不考虑你的想法。故选C。 67.细节理解题。根据文章内容,消除代沟的建议包括:①不要与父母争吵(第二段“Don’t argue with your parents”);②尝试达成和解(第三段“Try to reach a compromise”);③谈论你的价值观(第四段“Talk about your values”)。而“④总是同意父母的观点”并未提及,且与和解(compromise)矛盾。故选A。 68.词句猜测题。根据文章第二段“And you can’t express yourself well if you are angry.”以及“Make sure you understand why you are unhappy.”可推知,“cool off”意为“冷静下来”。故选A。 69.细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Showing respect will keep your relationship strong.”可推知,与父母达成和解的方式是表现出尊重。故选D。 70.最佳标题题。文章主要围绕消除代沟的具体方法展开,如避免争吵、达成妥协、交流价值观等。因此,“消除代沟的好方法”是最佳标题。故选C。 Passage 3 (2025八年级下·湖北襄阳·期末)Do you know that we also do communication with ourselves from time to time? Picture this: Your mom asks you what you would like for breakfast. Many foods come to your mind: pancakes, bread, porridge... Until you tell your mom what you want to eat, you are communicating with yourself. We call it interpersonal communication (自我沟通). This can be talking with classmates, reading books, writing your homework, thinking to ourselves, understanding a difficult math problem, and remembering something. Interpersonal communication plays a big role in our lives. Good interpersonal communication allows you to understand yourself better. When you’re comfortable with who you are, and you know what you want, you can better get on with yourself. Also, interpersonal communication helps you to keep an eye on your thoughts and feelings. When you find that your mind is full of negative (负面) thoughts and feelings, and they make you sad, you will try to cheer up and forget about these unhappy things. What’s more, interpersonal communication helps with your communication with others at school. Understanding your thoughts and feelings better allows you to put yourself in others’ shoes when you talk to or listen to them. Then, you can better understand and get on with them. 71.How does the writer begin to explain his idea in Paragraph 1? A.By showing some facts. B.By providing numbers. C.By giving an example.

This shows the growing success and future of China’s film industry (产业), as reported by China Daily. One of the main reasons why Ne Zha 2 is popular is its amazing visuals (视觉效果) and exciting storyline. The film includes 2,427 scenes, with 1,948 needing special effects (特效)—a huge job for any team. As a result, 138 Chinese animation studios (large or small) and over 4,000 professionals (专业人士) worked on the project, Beijing Daily reported. Red Whale Studios from Suzhou played an important role in finishing a quarter of the making of the film—a team of 160 artists worked day and night for 26 months to create exciting scenes. Yang Yu (also known as Jiaozi) shared that they considered using foreign teams for special effects at first, but the results didn’t bring them satisfaction. ★ A great example is Fantawild Animation from Shenzhen. It created the breathtaking waterfall in the forest fighting scene. Waterfalls are challenging to animate because of their size and always changing movement. To make it look real, the team used best technology with 50 high-powered computers. In the movie, Ne Zha says, “If there’s no way ahead, I will create one.” Similarly, the 138 Chinese animation studios joined forces to push Chinese animation, showing the industry’s talent and creativity. 6.What does “this” refer to? A.The achievement of Ne Zha 2. B.The report by China Daily. C.The Chinese film industry. D.The future of animation. 7.The numbers in paragraph 2 show the making of the film is ________.

In ancient times, the Min River often flooded (during rainy seasons in the Chengdu Plain (成都平原)). In order to make better use of the river water and solve the problem of floods and droughts (干旱), the Dujiangyan Irrigation System was built in 256 BC, which was designed by ancient Chinese engineer Li Bing. The system divides the Min River into two parts: the inner part and the outer part, which play different roles in dry and rainy seasons. During dry seasons, 60% of the river water runs into the inner part to water farms. In rainy seasons, the outer part carries 60% of the water, protecting the Chengdu Plain against floods. By changing the river way, the system cleverly controls the water. However, as water keeps running through, it leaves behind-lots of silt. So, it’s necessary to dig and clean the riverbed every year. When Dujiangyan was first built, Li Bing put Shima (stone horse) in the riverbed. It served as a ruler and told people how deep to dig when cleaning the riverbed. In Ming Dynasty, the first Wotie (lying iron stick) appeared and took the place of Shima. In dry seasons, people cleaned away part of the earth and sand from the riverbed. When they dug down and reached the Wotie, they knew they could stop. The tradition of digging the riverbed has been lasting for over 2,000 years. People continued to repair Dujiangyan, and new Woties were placed in the riverbed. Today, four Woties lie side by side underwater, which were made in different ages from Ming Dynasty to the new China. Although workers have better tools now, these iron sticks are still powerful symbols of ancient wisdom (智慧). They carry ancient people’s messages through over 2, 000 years, which are passed down to modern and future generations (一代人) . 16.Which is true about the Dujiangyang Irrigation System? A.It is less than 2,000 years old. B.It was built by Chinese engineer Li Bing. C.It stops the Min River. D.It helps control the water from the Min River. 17.What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A.Where the river water goes. B.How Dujiangyan works. C.How much water the Min River has. D.What the Min River looks like. 18.The underlined word “silt” in paragraph 3 refers to ________. A.earth and sand B.digging tools C.broken wood and leaves D.water plants 19.Which can we find in the Dujiangyan riverbed today according to the passage? A. B. C. D. 20.What could be the best title for the passage? A.Introduction to Dujingyan Water System B.Explanation of Flood Controlling Technology C.Examples of Riverbed Cleaning Tools D.Discussion of Chinese Ancient Tools 【答案】16.D 17.B 18.A 19.C 20.A 【导语】本文围绕都江堰展开,涵盖其历史背景、设计建造、运作原理、维护传统及历史意义,是对该工程的全面介绍。 16.细节理解题。根据第一段“In order to make better use of the river water and solve the problem of floods and droughts (干旱), the Dujiangyan Irrigation System was built in 256 BC, which was designed by ancient Chinese engineer Li Bing.”可知,都江堰水利工程通过改变河道、调节枯雨季水量分配,实现了对岷江水的调控。故选D。 17.段落大意题。根据第二段“The system divides (the Min River into two parts: the inner part and the outer part, which play different roles in dry and rainy seasons. During dry seasons, 60% of the river water runs into the inner part to water farms. In rainy seasons, the outer part carries 60% of the water, protecting the Chengdu Plain against floods. By changing the river way, the system cleverly controls the water.”可知,本文具体描述了都江堰将岷江分为内江和外江,在枯水期和雨季分别通过不同的水量分配发挥作用,核心是解释其运作机制。故选B。 18.词义猜测题。根据第三段“However, as water keeps running through, it leaves behind-lots of silt. So, it’s necessary to dig and clean the riverbed every year. ”可知,每年需要挖掘清理河床,由此可知“silt”意为水流带来的泥沙。故选A。 19.细节理解题。根据第三段“Today, four Woties lie side by side underwater, which were made in different ages from Ming Dynasty to the new China.”可知,如今,四根卧铁并排躺在水下,它们制作于从明代到新中国的不同时期。故选C。 20.最佳标题题。通读全文可知,本文围绕都江堰展开,涵盖其历史背景、设计建造、运作原理、维护传统及历史意义,是对该工程的全面介绍。故最佳标题为:都江堰水利工程的介绍。故选A。 Passage 5 (2025八年级下·湖北随州·期末) Baduanjin Baduanjin, a kind of slow-moving qigong, can go back to the Song Dynasty.

Teachers ask us to drink water during breaks and health experts say that water can improve our skin and help manage our weight. But a common question remains: how much water should we actually take in? For a long time, many people have stuck to the “8×8 rule,” believing that drinking eight glasses of water, eight times a day, is perfect. This idea, however, came from a misunderstanding. In 1945, scientists suggested drinking an amount (数量) of water for how much food we eat. That’s about eight glasses every day. But the truth is, different people need very different amounts of water every day. For example, a sportsman who trains for hours might need much more water than someone who spends most of the day sitting at a desk. Our weight, age and how active we are all decide how much water we need. So, do we need to strictly control how much water we drink? Dr Stanley Goldfarb doesn’t think so. Our body has a great self-control system. When our body needs water, we feel thirsty, a clear sign to drink up. Also, our body can save water well and start working before we feel thirsty. Water offers many benefits (益处). It helps keep our body temperature normal, take away waste in the body and protect our joints (关节). In short, your body is very smart. Don’t worry too much about how much water you should drink every day. Your body can take care of itself and tell you when it needs more water. Just listen to your body and you’ll stay healthy. 51.The “8×8 rule” mentioned in the second paragraph is about ________ to drink. A.how much B.when C.how fast D.why 52.How does the writer support the idea that different people need different amounts of water? A.By listing real numbers. B.By using expert opinions. C.By sharing personal stories. D.By comparing sportsmen and desk workers. 53.In the fourth paragraph, the underlined word “It” refers to ________. A.food B.water C.the body D.the joint 54.Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?(①=Paragraph 1②=Paragraph 2…) A. B. C. D. 55.What does the writer want us to do? A.Stop drinking water in the evening. B.Worry about how much water we drink. C.Listen to our body when we are thirsty. D.Drink as much water as possible every day. 【答案】51.A 52.D 53.B 54.A 55.C 【导语】本文主要讲述了人们日常饮水的相关问题,探讨了“8×8规则”的来源,说明不同人所需饮水量不同,以及身体有自我调节机制,最后指出人们无需过度担心饮水量,听从身体需求即可保持健康。 51.细节理解题。根据“believing that drinking eight glasses of water, eight times a day, is perfect”可知,“8×8 规则”是关于饮水量的。故选A。 52.推理判断题。根据“For example, a sportsman who trains for hours might need much more water than someone who spends most of the day sitting at a desk”可知,作者通过对比运动员和伏案工作者来支持不同人需要不同饮水量这一观点。故选D。 53.词句猜测题。根据“Water offers many benefits (益处). It helps keep our body temperature normal...”可知,“It”指代的是水。故选B。 54.篇章结构题。根据文章内容,第一段提出“我们实际应该摄入多少水”这一问题;第二段介绍“8×8 规则”及其来源;第三段说明不同人每天需要的水量不同;第四段阐述身体有自我调节系统以及水的益处;第五段总结应听从身体的需求。因此结构为①→②③④→⑤。故选A。 55.推理判断题。根据“Just listen to your body and you’ll stay healthy”可知,作者希望我们在口渴时听从身体的信号。故选C。 Passage 3 (2025八年级下·湖北黄石·期末)It is said that doing physical exercise can make our brain work better, but I wanted to know if that was true. Maybe it could be the answer to getting good grades at school. To find out about it, we decided to make a memory (记忆力) test. We took 25 different things from around the house and covered them up with a towel (毛巾). Next, we asked eight of our friends to take a test. We took away the towel and gave them one minute to look at the things. When the minute was up, we covered the things again and asked them to write down as many things as they could remember. Then we made our friends into two groups. One group sat down and played easy chess games. We called it “TEAM SIT”. The other group went out for a few miles. We named it “TEAM MOVE”. At the same time, we put new things in the test. After 10 minutes, both teams took a second test with the new things. We graded all the tests, giving one point for each right answer. Then we watched how each team’s score changed. The TEAM SIT’s average (平均) score went down by 2 points. The other team’s average score went up by 4 points. The difference wasn’t too big. But the team that exercised had better memory test scores. So next time, I might go out and take a long run before I study for a test! 56.What is the meaning of “physical exercise” in paragraph 1? A.物理练习 B.体育课 C.心理测试 D.体育锻炼 57.The writer made friends into two groups because of ________.

B.How to do well in physical exercises. C.If doing physical exercise is good for our brain. D.Why should students do physical exercise. 59.What’s the structure (结构) of the text? A. B. C. D. 60.What can we infer (推断) from the text? A.Playing board games is good for our memory. B.The answer to getting good grades is to work hard. C.It is necessary to do physical exercise. D.The writer will not take a long run before he studies for a test. 【答案】56.D 57.B 58.C 59.D 60.C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章通过实验探讨了体育锻炼对大脑记忆力的影响,发现运动后的人记忆力测试成绩更好。 【详解】56.词句猜测题。根据文章第1段“doing physical exercise can make our brain work better”可知,“physical exercise”指的是能让大脑运作更好的活动。结合选项,D项“体育锻炼”最符合语境。故选D。 57.细节理解题。根据文章第3段“Then we made our friends into two groups… One group sat down… The other group went out…”可知,分组依据是两组进行的活动不同(坐着下棋vs外出运动)。故选B。 58.词句猜测题。根据文章第2段“To find out about it”及第1段“It is said that doing physical exercise can make our brain work better, but I wanted to know if that was true.”可知,据说体育锻炼可以使我们的大脑更好地工作,但我想知道这是不是真的。“it”指代前文“体育锻炼是否对大脑有益”的疑问。故选C。 59.篇章结构题。综合全文可知,第1段提出体育锻炼能使我们的大脑更好地工作,引出主题;第2、3、4段具体介绍了记忆测试实验;第5段呼吁人们进行体育锻炼,因此本文属于“总分总”结构,选项D图示符合题意。故选D。 60.推理判断题。根据文章第4段“the team that exercised had better memory test scores”及最后1段作者决定“take a long run before study”可推知,体育锻炼对提升记忆力有必要性。故选C。 Passage 4 (2025八年级下·湖北·期末)It is important to know some swimming safety tips (贴士) before getting in the pool.
