There are five girls in my family, and we all had to help out. Once when I was about seven, I came out of the kitchen, “Mum, I can’t peel potatoes. I only have one hand.” “Get back to peel these potatoes, and don’t ever use that as an excuse for anything again!”
Of course I could peel potatoes — with my good hand and my other arm. “Jenny, if you try hard,” she said, “you can do anything.”
Once in the second grade, our teacher had each of us race across the monkey bar (攀爬架).
When it was my turn, I said no. Some kids laughed. I went home crying.

【导语】本文讲述八年级学生李明的积极生活。他热爱运动,认真对待建议,努力平衡学习与生活,充分利用中学时光。
【1题详解】
句意:他是班里最外向的学生,这使他在同学中很受欢迎。
根据“He is the most outgoing student in his class”可知他在班上最外向,所以这使他在同学中很“受欢迎”,popular符合语境。interesting有趣的;different不同的,均不符合。
【2题详解】
句意:每天早上,李明早起去和父亲跑步。
根据“Every morning”以及“to go for a run with his father”可知每天早上要和父亲去跑步,应该是早早“起床”,gets up符合。eats breakfast吃早餐;takes a shower洗澡,均不符合语境。
【3题详解】
句意:他认为每天锻炼对健康很重要。
根据“He believes that exercising every day is important for...”可知每天锻炼对“健康”重要,health符合。family家庭;home家,均不符合。
【4题详解】
句意:这不仅仅是一项有趣的活动。
根据“It’s also a way for him to make better decisions under pressure”可知踢足球“不只是”一项有趣的活动,not just符合。just仅仅;only只,仅有,均不符合语境。
【5题详解】
句意:这意味着他必须为任何事情做好准备,并且能够应对意外情况。
be ready for sth.为“为……做好准备”,这里表示他要为任何事情做好准备,所以用for。
【6题详解】
句意:李明认真对待这个建议,并将其也应用到他的学习中。
take...seriously意为“认真对待……”,这里指李明认真对待老师的建议,所以用takes。wonders想知道;tries尝试,均不符合。
【7题详解】
句意:他比说的还要兴奋。
excited用来形容人感到兴奋,exciting用来形容事物令人兴奋,这里说的是李明很兴奋,用more excited;interesting是“有趣的”,不符合语境。
【8题详解】
句意:然而,李明必须迅速做出决定,因为门票销售得很快。
“the tickets were selling fast”是“Li Ming had to make a decision quickly”的原因,所以用because引导原因状语从句。although虽然;but但是,均不符合。
【9题详解】
句意:在他的学习和个人生活之间保持平衡并不总是容易的,但他相信自己能够充分利用他的中学时光。
这里说的是李明在“他的”学业和个人生活之间保持平衡,his符合。my我的;their他们的,均不符合。
【10题详解】
句意:在他的学习和个人生活之间保持平衡并不总是容易的,但他相信自己能够充分利用他的中学时光。

Once in the second grade, our teacher had each of us race across the monkey bar (攀爬架).
When it was my turn, I said no. Some kids laughed. I went home crying.
The next afternoon Mum took me back to the school playground. “Now, pull up with your right arm.” She advised. She praised me when I made progress. I’ll never forget when I was crossing the bar, the kids were standing there with their mouths open.
It was the way with everything. Mum had the courage to face anything. And she taught me I could, too.

四、语法填空(共10小题:每小题1分,满分10分)
阅读下面短文,在空格处填入一个适当的词或填入括号中单词的正确形式。
I still remembered the first day I met Jane. When she ____31____ (walk) into the classroom, all the students were very surprised ____32____ (see) that there was a big red birthmark on her face. Jane didn’t care at all although some bad boys laughed at ____33____ (she). Instead, she was always ____34____ (smile).
I wanted to know why Jane could always be so happy. So one day, I went to her and asked if she knew there was a red birthmark on her face. She replied that, of course, she knew. Whenever she looked ____35____ the mirror, she could see it.
“Then how can you live happily all the time? Don’t you think ____36____ mark makes you strange?” I asked.
“No, actually, the mark makes me special. I always tell ____37____ (oneself) that I have no way to decide what I look like, ____38____ I can decide what I want to be. I’m much luckier than those that can’t walk or run. At least I’m a healthy person,” Jane answered with a smile.
Jane’s words opened a new world for me. At that moment, I understood the world ____39____ (well) than before. If the world is looked from a very bright way, some bad things will be good ____40____ (gift).
【答案】31. walked
32. to see 33. her
34. smiling
35. in 36. the
37. myself 38. but
39. better 40. gifts
【解析】
【导语】本文通过讲述Jane面对脸上胎记依然乐观开朗的故事,启发我们积极看待生活中的不完美,学会感恩与自信。
【31题详解】
句意:当她走进教室时,所有学生都很惊讶地看到她脸上有一个很大的红色胎记。根据“all the students were very surprised”可知,此处叙述的是过去发生的动作,应用一般过去时。walk变为walked。故填walked。
【32题详解】
句意:当她走进教室时,所有学生都很惊讶地看到她脸上有一个很大的红色胎记。根据“were very surprised”可知,surprised后常跟不定式作原因状语,表示“惊讶于做某事”。故此处用动词不定式to see。故填to see。
【33题详解】
句意:尽管有些坏男孩嘲笑她,Jane根本不在乎。根据“laughed at”可知,其后应接宾格形式的代词。she的宾格是her。故填her。
【34题详解】
句意:相反,她总是微笑。根据句中was作系动词,空格处作表语修饰主语she,需用形容词或现在分词形式表示持续状态。smile的现在分词smiling作形容词用。故填smiling。
【35题详解】
句意:每当她照镜子时,她都能看到它。根据固定搭配“look in the mirror”表示“照镜子”,此处应填介词in。故填in。
【36题详解】
句意:你不觉得这个胎记让你很奇怪吗?根据句中“... mark makes you strange”可知,此处指上文所说的胎记,应使用定冠词the。故填the。
【37题详解】
句意:我总是告诉自己,我无法决定自己的样子,但我可以决定我想成为什么样的人。根据tell后接宾语,主语和宾语是同一人,空格处需用反身代词,主语I对应的反身代词是myself。故填myself。
【38题详解】
句意:我总是告诉自己,我无法决定自己的长相,但我可以决定我想成为什么样的人。根据句中前后句存在转折关系,应使用连词but表示“但是”。故填but。
【39题详解】
句意:那一刻,我比以前更了解这个世界。根据句中than before表示比较,空格处需用副词的比较级形式,well的比较级是better。故填better。
【40题详解】
句意:如果从非常积极的角度看世界,一些坏事也会是很好的礼物。gift是可数名词,根据“ some bad things”可知对应的gift也要用复数,故填gifts。

Once a little weed (杂草) grew in a field. There were many tall and beautiful flowers around it. Lots of bees and butterflies came to them because of their nice smells and bright colours. The little weed wasn’t satisfied, because its flowers were tiny and simple.
One spring morning, three children came to play in the field. “Let’s pick some flowers for our grandma!” said one. “That’s a good idea!” said another. “She will love all these bright and beautiful flowers!”
“What about that one?” the youngest child said, pointing at the little weed. “Forget it!” laughed the oldest brother. “That’s just a useless weed!”
Hearing this, the little weed felt even worse. “Am I really useless?” it asked itself, “Why was I put on the Earth?”
In winter, all flowers were gone, only the little weed stood alone in the field. Just at that time, it noticed some birds coming above the field. “We are hungry!” they shouted. The little weed felt sorry for the poor birds and called out to them, “Hey! Down here! I have pods (豆荚) that you can eat!”
“You’re so kind!” The birds ate up the seeds (种子) in the pods thankfully. “They’re delicious. We can’t find anything better than what you gave us!”
