But if your mind is where the pain is, what do you do? Mental health problems are actually very common, affecting about 13 percent of people aged between 10 and 19 around the world. World Mental Health(WMH) Day, October 10th, is a day to remind people to take more care of mental health problems. ②School life isn’t always easy. Exams are stressful, lessons can be hard and it’s also difficult to make good friends sometimes. If you don’t feel good at school, your diet can change how you feel. You should eat enough vegetables and fruit to make you feel well. Drink enough water too. Water makes you full of energy. ③Besides, it’s healthy to spend time with others. Find people who make you feel safe and comfortable and spend time with them. If you feel blue, talk with someone you trust. If you feel lonely, try volunteering. It’s a good way of meeting new people, and you’ll feel good about helping others. ④Most people know that exercise is good for your body, but it’s good for mental health too! Exercise can also help reduce stress and unhappiness. Why not try going for a walk in the park or countryside? ⑤So, on WMH day, you can do something that really makes you happy — such as having your favourite food or chatting with your best friend. Take some time to ask yourself — How do I feel right now? Is everything OK? How can I look after myself better? By doing so, you will know better about the importance of mental health. 29. Which of the following activities should we avoid doing on WMH day? A. Have our favourite food. B. Chat with our best friend. C. Go for a walk in a park. D. Keep feelings to ourselves. 30. Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage? A. ①//②//③//④//⑤ B. ①//②③④//⑤ C. ①//②③//④//⑤ D. ①②③④//⑤ 31. What is the purpose of the passage? A. To describe what mental health problems are. B. To introduce the date of World Mental Health Day. C. To encourage people to volunteer for mental health. D. To give advice on how to stay mentally healthy. 【答案】29. D 30. B 31. D 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了世界心理健康日，并针对青少年常见的心理压力问题，提出了几种保持心理健康的实用建议。 【29题详解】 根据第⑤段“such as having your favourite food or chatting with your best friend”可知A、B项是推荐做的；根据第④段“going for a walk in the park”可知C项也是推荐的；而第③段明确指出“If you feel blue, talk with someone you trust”，第⑤段也建议“ask yourself — How do I feel?”，这些都表明要表达和关注情绪，不应把情绪放在心里，故选D。 【30题详解】 文章第①段引出心理健康话题；第②③④段分别从饮食、社交与倾诉、运动三个方面给出具体建议；第⑤段总结全文并发出呼吁。因此结构为①//②③④//⑤。 【31题详解】 文章第①段介绍世界心理健康日的背景，但并未具体描述心理健康问题是什么，排除A项；B项只涉及开头细节，C项只涉及第③段的一个建议，均不能概括全文。第②③④段大部分篇幅都在提供保持心理健康的具体建议；结尾也强调如何照顾自己。D项“给出保持心理健康的建议”最能概括全文目的。 C My father, who was always drunk and angry, beat me more and more every day. He always locked the door when he went away and kept the key in this pocket. One day I found an old saw （锯子） that he hid in the roof. When I was alone in the house. I started to make a hole on the floor under the big table. The next day my father said, "Huck, go to the river and catch some fish for breakfast. Quickly! And don't try anything. Remember, I'm watching you!" While I was fishing by the river, I saw an empty boat nearby. "A boat!" I thought happily, “This is my chance to escape. I'll hide the boat near some trees and use it tonight!" When my father went to town that afternoon, I got my saw and started to work on the hole. It was late afternoon when I finished making the hole. "I did a good job," I thought, looking at the hole. “Now I'll get my father's gun.” I looked outside the window and there was nobody there. I quickly escaped through the hole. Then I ran into the woods to hunt a wild pig. Luckily, I found one. I shot it and took it back to the house and let the pig's blood fall on the wooden floor of the house. Then I pulled some of my hair out and put it on my father's axe（斧子） with some of the pig's blood. I took the pig's body outside and put it in a big bag with some rocks, and threw it into the river. "This way people will think ▲ !" I thought. "They'll come and look for my body in the river." This idea made me smile. I waited until it was dark and got into the boat and went to Jackson's Island. I knew about Jackson's Island because Tom, Ben, Joe and I had a lot of fun adventures there. （Adapted from The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain） 32. What's the correct order of the following? ①Huck hid a boat. ②Huck found a saw. ③Huck went fishing. ④Huck killed a wild pig. A. ①④②③ B. ③②①④ C. ②①③④ D. ②③①④ 33.

I killed the wild pig and I'm brave D. my friends helped me and I'm lucky 34. Huck went to Jackson's Island because he wanted to ________. A. meet his friends B. look for the treasure C. take an adventure D. escape from his father 35. According to the passage, what is Huck like? A. Brave and clever. B. Funny and helpful. C. Lazy and careless. D. Boring and stupid. 【答案】32. D 33. B 34. D 35. A 【解析】 【分析】文章大意：短文节选自《哈克贝利•费恩历险记》。主要介绍Huck受不了父亲的毒打，于是他趁父亲外出的机会，先安排了一个自己被杀死，尸体被扔到河里的假象，然后就偷了小船，逃到了杰克逊岛上躲了起来的故事。 【32题详解】 阅读排序题。根据第一段“One day I found an old saw”一天我发现一把旧锯子，可知，②“Huck发现一把锯子”是第一位。根据第三段“While I was fishing by the river”当我在河边钓鱼的时候，可知，③“Huck去钓鱼”是第二位。根据第四段“I'll hide the boat near some trees and use it tonight”我要把船藏在树旁，今晚用它，可知，①“Huck藏起了船”是第三位。根据第七段“Then I ran into the woods to hunt a wild pig”然后我跑到树林里去猎一头野猪，可知，④“Huck杀死了一头野猪”是第四位。正确顺序是②③①④，故选D。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据空上文“Then I pulled some of my hair out and put it on my father's axe（斧子） with some of the pig's blood. I took the pig's body outside and put it in a big bag with some rocks, and threw it into the river.”然后我拔了一些头发，用猪血放在我父亲的斧子上。我把猪的尸体拿到外面，放进一个装有石头的大袋子里，扔到河里。以及下文“They'll come and look for my body in the river."This idea made me smile.”他们会来找我的尸体的，这个想法让我笑了。可知，这样人们就会认为“猪血是我的，我死了”。故选B。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“My father, who was always drunk and angry, beat me more and more every day.”我父亲总是酗酒和生气，每天都在不断地殴打我。以及第四段“This is my chance to escape.”这是我逃跑的机会。可知，Huck去杰克逊岛是因为他想逃离父亲，故选D。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“This way people will think the pig's blood is mine and I'm dead!”I thought. “They'll come and look for my body in the river.”This idea made me smile.“这样人们就会以为猪血是我的，我死了！”我想，“他们会来找我的尸体的。”这个想法让我笑了。以及最后一句 “had a lot of fun adventures there.”在那里有很多有趣的冒险经历。可知，Huck是勇敢的和聪明的，故选A。 D 阅读以下内容，从其后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，有两项是多余的。 Gift giving traditions are greatly different from one country to another. ____36____ Let’s take a look at the special gifting traditions from around the world. ____37____ Many Americans think practical gifts like this are useful and thoughtful. However, in certain European countries like Germany, people believe that a knife presented as a gift will cut off your friendship. In Indian culture, left hands are thought to be unclean. ____38____ This tradition comes from long-held cultural thoughts about cleanliness and respect. In Indian culture, an odd number (奇数) of things or money stands for good luck. Indians often choose odd numbers for gifts to send good wishes. ____39____ In Zimbabwe, it is common to directly ask for a gift. When you receive a gift without asking for it, even if the giver’s family is poor, it’s the worst way to refuse the offering. ____40____ These may include jumping up and down, dancing or cheering. A. For example, £11 should be given instead of £10. B. So behaviours such as touching and giving gifts are to be done with right hands. C. You’d better give a much more expensive gift in return. D. In the US, a set of kitchen knives seems a perfect gift idea. E. For example, you can give them two bottles of wine as a present. F. Also, expressing thanks with actions is better than just saying “thanks”. G. A behaviour that shows respect in one place might be impolite somewhere else. 【答案】36. G 37. D 38. B 39. A 40. F 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了不同国家各不相同的送礼习俗，分别讲述了美国、德国、印度以及津巴布韦独特的送礼文化与礼仪讲究。 【36题详解】 前文提到不同国家的送礼传统大不相同，G选项“A behaviour that shows respect in one place might be impolite somewhere else.”表示在一个地方表示尊重的行为在另一个地方可能是不礼貌的，承接上文，解释各国送礼习俗差异的具体体现。 【37题详解】 后文提到许多美国人认为这类实用的礼物贴心又有用，同时对比了德国送刀具的禁忌，D选项“In the US, a set of kitchen knives seems a perfect gift idea.”表示在美国，一套厨房刀具似乎是绝佳的礼物选择，引出下文美、德两国送礼差异的内容。 【38题详解】 前文提到在印度文化中，左手被认为是不干净的，B选项“So behaviours such as touching and giving gifts are to be done with right hands.”表示所以触碰、送礼等行为都需要用右手完成，承接上文，说明印度对应的送礼礼仪。 【39题详解】 前文提到印度人送礼偏爱奇数数字来传递美好祝愿，A选项“For example, £11 should be given instead of £10.”表示例如，应该送11英镑而不是10英镑，举例佐证上文印度偏爱奇数送礼的习俗。 【40题详解】 后文提到可以通过蹦跳、跳舞、欢呼等方式表达谢意，F选项“Also, expressing thanks with actions is better than just saying “thanks”.”表示此外，用行动表达感谢比单纯说谢谢更好，引出下文具体的致谢行为方式。 五、词汇运用（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） host background rush confidence courage be absent suffer from seat belt all at once when it comes to 41.

When it comes to 50. been absent 【解析】 【41题详解】 句意：在连一枚银牌都没拿到后，他的自信心受到了极大的影响。根据语境，比赛失利会影响人的“信心”，且此处需填名词，故填confidence。 【42题详解】 句意：请不要一次性索要太多东西，这样我们就不会给别人带来麻烦。all at once 意为“同时”，符合语境，表示不要一次性提过多要求。 【43题详解】 句意：志愿者甚至需要帮助一些运动员在乘坐公交车时系好安全带。坐公交车需系“安全带”，因前面有“their”，暗示复数，故seat belt需变为复数seat belts。 【44题详解】 句意：为了准时在公园见到朋友，她今天早上匆匆吃完了饭。rush one’s meal意为“匆匆吃饭”，根据“this morning”可知动作发生在过去，需用一般过去时，rush变为rushed，意为“匆忙”。 【45题详解】 句意：面试前，公司通常会仔细核查你的教育背景。educational background为固定搭配，意为“教育背景”，符合“面试核查” 的语境。故填background。 【46题详解】 句意：所有人都被主人的热情好客深深打动了。此处修饰“warmth”（热情），需用名词所有格形式，表示“主人的”，故host变为host’s。 【47题详解】 句意：在放弃这么多的同时继续做志愿工作，需要极大的勇气。根据“giving up so much”可知这需要“勇气”，故填courage。 【48题详解】 句意：不幸的是，他从出生起就患有严重的心脏病。suffer from意为“患病”，根据“has”可知句子为现在完成时，动词需用过去分词形式，故填suffered from。 【49题详解】 句意：说到给朋友选礼物，她总是花很多时间仔细思考。when it comes to为固定句型，意为“当谈及……”，位于句首首字母需大写，故填When it comes to。 【50题详解】 句意：我发现很难跟上同学们的进度，因为我已经缺课一周了。be absent from意为“缺席”，根据 “have”可知句子为现在完成时，be动词需变为过去分词been，故填been absent。 六、短文填空（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） Today is December 5th, which is International Volunteer Day. Our school held a special meeting to celebrate it. A u____51____ student named Zhang Wei was invited to give a talk to us. Zhang Wei shared his wonderful e____52____ as a volunteer at the Olympics. Before the games, he took some necessary t____53____ to learn about different cultures and language skills. He wanted to do his best s____54____ that he could help visitors from all over the world.

Instead of watching TV at home, I plan to go to the old people’s home this weekend to keep them company. I believe small a____60____ of kindness help a lot in order to make our society warmer. 【答案】51. university##niversity 52. experience##xperience 53. time/ime 54. so##o 55. however##owever 56. basic##asic 57. nothing/othing 58. proud##roud 59. difference##ifference 60. actions##ctions 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述12月5日国际志愿者这一天，有一位名叫张伟的学生来学校分享在奥运会当志愿者的经历，传递志愿精神，呼吁大家从小事行善温暖社会。 【51题详解】 句意：一位名叫张伟的大学生受邀来给我们做演讲。该处需一个名词，在句中作定语，修饰后面的名词student。后文讲述人物参与奥运志愿工作的青年经历，提示语义与“大学”相关，不定冠词a后接辅音音素开头的单数可数名词，结合首字母u，故填university。 【52题详解】 句意：张伟分享了他在奥运会上的精彩经历。根据首字母提示，以及后文介绍志愿者相关过往事迹，表达“经历、阅历”的意思，用名词experience来指代在奥运会做志愿者的整个经历。 【53题详解】 句意：在比赛前，他需要花费必要的时间去学习不同的文化和语言技能。“sb. take/takes/took time to do sth.”为固定搭配，意思是“某人花费时间去做某事”。 【54题详解】 句意：他想尽自己最大的努力，以便能帮助来自世界各地的游客。由前文“do his best”和后文“he could help visitors”，可知前后构成“行为 + 目的”的逻辑关系。so that为固定连词短语，意为“以便，为了”，专门引导目的状语从句。 【55题详解】 句意：赛事期间，他的日常工作十分繁忙，然而，他从未感到疲惫。前半句“his daily work was very busy”，后半句“he never felt tired”，前后语义构成转折。单词前后又均用逗号隔开，首字母h对应however，是句中转折副词的标准用法。 【56题详解】 句意：尽管他提供基础的服务，如指路和搬东西。后文举例指路、搬东西都是志愿者最基础、日常的便民服务，提示语义与“基础的、基本的”相关。首字母b对应basic。 【57题详解】 句意：他说不计报酬地做事对自己来说真的是一种乐事/珍宝。“do sth. for nothing”可以看作为固定搭配，意思是“做事不求回报，不计报酬”。 【58题详解】 句意：它让你感到开心和自豪。根据上下文内容可知，志愿服务这一行为是“有意义的”，是“宝藏”，应该为之“自豪”，再根据首字母提示，可用形容词proud来表达此意。 【59题详解】 句意：听了他的故事，我也想要做出一番改变。作者听完志愿故事后萌生参与公益的想法，提示语义与“产生影响、有所作为”相关。make a difference为固定短语，意为“产生影响；有所作为”。 【60题详解】 句意：我相信小行动能帮大忙，为了让我们的社会变得更温暖。根据后文“kindness”可知，在表达善意时要付出行动，根据首字母提示，可对应名词“action”，根据主谓一致原则，help对应的主要主语应为“actions”。 七、阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读回答问题，每题答案不超过10个单词。 Mia was a quiet girl. At school, she always sat at the back of the classroom, hoping the teacher would not call her name. It was not because she didn’t know the answers. In fact, she studied hard and got good grades. The real problem was her fear of speaking in front of others. Every time she thought about raising her hand, her heart would beat fast and her face would turn red. The words seemed to get stuck in her throat. This fear followed her for years. She avoided class discussions and never joined any clubs. Her teachers thought she was just shy and would grow out of it. But deep inside, Mia felt unhappy with herself. She wanted to change, but she didn’t know how. One day, her English teacher announced that every student had to give a three-minute speech. When Mia heard this, she felt sick. She spent a whole week worrying about it. But as she prepared, something unexpected happened. Her best friend Lucas offered to help her practice. Every afternoon, they sat in the empty classroom. Lucas listened patiently and gave her advice. He also taught her a simple trick: take three deep breaths before speaking and focus on one kind face in the room. On the day of the speech, Mia’s hands were shaking. But she took three deep breaths, looked at Lucas, and began to speak. To her surprise, her voice came out clear and strong. When she finished, the whole class clapped. That moment changed everything for Mia. From then on, Mia began to raise her hand more often. She joined the school debate club and even entered a speaking competition. She learned that courage is not the absence of fear, but the decision to move forward despite being afraid. 61. What was Mia’s problem at the beginning of the story? ______________________________________________________ 62. Why did Mia feel unhappy with herself? ______________________________________________________ 63. What did her English teacher ask every student to do? ______________________________________________________ 64. How did Lucas help Mia practice? ______________________________________________________ 65. According to Mia’s story, what is courage? ______________________________________________________ 【答案】61.

The decision to move forward despite being afraid. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了女孩Mia在朋友帮助下克服当众演讲恐惧，并理解勇气真谛的故事。 【61题详解】 根据第一段中“The real problem was her fear of speaking in front of others.”可知，Mia最初的问题是害怕当众发言，直接从原文提取关键信息作答即可。 【62题详解】 根据第二段中“She wanted to change, but she didn’t know how.”可知，她对自己不满是因为想改变却不知道怎么做，直接从原文提取关键信息作答即可。 【63题详解】 根据第三段中“One day, her English teacher announced that every student had to give a three-minute speech.”可知，英语老师要求每个学生做三分钟演讲，直接从原文提取关键信息作答即可。 【64题详解】 根据第三段中“Lucas listened patiently and gave her advice. He also taught her a simple trick: take three deep breaths before speaking and focus on one kind face in the room.”可知，Lucas通过倾听、给出建议和教技巧来帮助她。 【65题详解】 根据第五段中“She learned that courage is not the absence of fear, but the decision to move forward despite being afraid.”可知，勇气是心怀恐惧仍选择前行，直接从原文提取关键信息作答即可。 八、书面表达（共1小题；满分15分） 66. 进入初中两年来，你收获并成长了很多。在八年级青春仪式后，请你以“How to be a good teenager”为题进行一次国旗下演讲，请根据下表提示写一篇英语演讲稿。内容要点如下： 要点 内容 Manners 1．At home: … 2．At school: … 3．In public: … Study read in spare time...

If you answer “Yes”, please join us for our Walk for Charity. Starting in Weldown, you and your friends can choose to walk 10, 20 or 30 kilometers. Last year’s walkers helped to raise a total of $21,000. The money has already been used to build a children’s playground. The money raised this year will provide support for people in our town. Start getting sponsors (赞助商) now and then simply come along on the day. Please read the information below carefully. See you on Sunday May 16th. START TIMES: 30 km:8-10 a.m. 20 km:8-10:30 a. m. 10 km:8-11:30 a.m. CLOTHING should be suitable for the weather. If it is rainy, bring some protection. It is better to wear shoes that have been worn in, instead of new ones. ROUTE MAPS will be provided from the starting point. If you need help along the way, please tell the volunteers. BUSES: A bus will be waiting at Fenton to take walkers back to Weldown. The bus will leave every 30 minutes starting from 12 p.m. The service is free. 26.

Mental health problems are actually very common, affecting about 13 percent of people aged between 10 and 19 around the world. World Mental Health(WMH) Day, October 10th, is a day to remind people to take more care of mental health problems. ②School life isn’t always easy. Exams are stressful, lessons can be hard and it’s also difficult to make good friends sometimes. If you don’t feel good at school, your diet can change how you feel. You should eat enough vegetables and fruit to make you feel well. Drink enough water too. Water makes you full of energy. ③Besides, it’s healthy to spend time with others. Find people who make you feel safe and comfortable and spend time with them. If you feel blue, talk with someone you trust. If you feel lonely, try volunteering. It’s a good way of meeting new people, and you’ll feel good about helping others. ④Most people know that exercise is good for your body, but it’s good for mental health too! Exercise can also help reduce stress and unhappiness. Why not try going for a walk in the park or countryside? ⑤So, on WMH day, you can do something that really makes you happy — such as having your favourite food or chatting with your best friend. Take some time to ask yourself — How do I feel right now? Is everything OK? How can I look after myself better? By doing so, you will know better about the importance of mental health. 29. Which of the following activities should we avoid doing on WMH day? A. Have our favourite food. B. Chat with our best friend. C. Go for a walk in a park. D. Keep feelings to ourselves. 30. Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage? A. ①//②//③//④//⑤ B. ①//②③④//⑤ C. ①//②③//④//⑤ D. ①②③④//⑤ 31. What is the purpose of the passage? A. To describe what mental health problems are. B. To introduce the date of World Mental Health Day. C. To encourage people to volunteer for mental health. D. To give advice on how to stay mentally healthy. C My father, who was always drunk and angry, beat me more and more every day. He always locked the door when he went away and kept the key in this pocket. One day I found an old saw （锯子） that he hid in the roof. When I was alone in the house. I started to make a hole on the floor under the big table. The next day my father said, "Huck, go to the river and catch some fish for breakfast. Quickly! And don't try anything. Remember, I'm watching you!" While I was fishing by the river, I saw an empty boat nearby. "A boat!" I thought happily, “This is my chance to escape. I'll hide the boat near some trees and use it tonight!" When my father went to town that afternoon, I got my saw and started to work on the hole. It was late afternoon when I finished making the hole. "I did a good job," I thought, looking at the hole. “Now I'll get my father's gun.” I looked outside the window and there was nobody there. I quickly escaped through the hole. Then I ran into the woods to hunt a wild pig. Luckily, I found one. I shot it and took it back to the house and let the pig's blood fall on the wooden floor of the house. Then I pulled some of my hair out and put it on my father's axe（斧子） with some of the pig's blood. I took the pig's body outside and put it in a big bag with some rocks, and threw it into the river. "This way people will think ▲ !" I thought. "They'll come and look for my body in the river." This idea made me smile. I waited until it was dark and got into the boat and went to Jackson's Island. I knew about Jackson's Island because Tom, Ben, Joe and I had a lot of fun adventures there. （Adapted from The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain） 32. What's the correct order of the following? ①Huck hid a boat. ②Huck found a saw. ③Huck went fishing. ④Huck killed a wild pig. A. ①④②③ B. ③②①④ C. ②①③④ D. ②③①④ 33.

However, in certain European countries like Germany, people believe that a knife presented as a gift will cut off your friendship. In Indian culture, left hands are thought to be unclean. ____38____ This tradition comes from long-held cultural thoughts about cleanliness and respect. In Indian culture, an odd number (奇数) of things or money stands for good luck. Indians often choose odd numbers for gifts to send good wishes. ____39____ In Zimbabwe, it is common to directly ask for a gift. When you receive a gift without asking for it, even if the giver’s family is poor, it’s the worst way to refuse the offering. ____40____ These may include jumping up and down, dancing or cheering. A. For example, £11 should be given instead of £10. B. So behaviours such as touching and giving gifts are to be done with right hands. C. You’d better give a much more expensive gift in return. D. In the US, a set of kitchen knives seems a perfect gift idea. E. For example, you can give them two bottles of wine as a present. F. Also, expressing thanks with actions is better than just saying “thanks”. G. A behaviour that shows respect in one place might be impolite somewhere else. 五、词汇运用（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） host background rush confidence courage be absent suffer from seat belt all at once when it comes to 41.

At school, she always sat at the back of the classroom, hoping the teacher would not call her name. It was not because she didn’t know the answers. In fact, she studied hard and got good grades. The real problem was her fear of speaking in front of others. Every time she thought about raising her hand, her heart would beat fast and her face would turn red. The words seemed to get stuck in her throat. This fear followed her for years. She avoided class discussions and never joined any clubs. Her teachers thought she was just shy and would grow out of it. But deep inside, Mia felt unhappy with herself. She wanted to change, but she didn’t know how. One day, her English teacher announced that every student had to give a three-minute speech. When Mia heard this, she felt sick. She spent a whole week worrying about it. But as she prepared, something unexpected happened. Her best friend Lucas offered to help her practice. Every afternoon, they sat in the empty classroom. Lucas listened patiently and gave her advice. He also taught her a simple trick: take three deep breaths before speaking and focus on one kind face in the room. On the day of the speech, Mia’s hands were shaking. But she took three deep breaths, looked at Lucas, and began to speak. To her surprise, her voice came out clear and strong. When she finished, the whole class clapped. That moment changed everything for Mia. From then on, Mia began to raise her hand more often. She joined the school debate club and even entered a speaking competition. She learned that courage is not the absence of fear, but the decision to move forward despite being afraid. 61.
