This is the Strait of Hormuz (霍尔木兹海峡)! It lies between Iran and Oman. At its narrowest point, it is only 33 kilometers wide. But it is the only door from the Persian Gulf to the Indian Ocean. For thousands of years, traders and travelers have sailed through it, connecting different cultures and trade across continents (大陆). This small strait is the world’s most vital energy lifeline . More than 20% of all oil shipped by sea passes through it, along with huge amounts of liquefied (液化) natural gas . Most of these resources go to countries like China, India, and Japan, powering their cities, factories, and homes. If this “throat” were blocked, energy prices would skyrocket (飞涨), and the whole world would feel the shortage. Today, the Strait of Hormuz is still a key guard of global energy security. Its special position makes it a natural “chokepoint” (咽喉要道)—no other waterway can take its place. As long as the world needs oil and gas, this narrow waterway will remain the most important “energy throat” on Earth. 1．Where is the Strait of Hormuz? A．Between Iran and India. B．Between Iran and Oman. C．Between China and Japan. D．Between the Persian Gulf and the Red Sea. 2．What would happen if the Strait of Hormuz were blocked? A．Energy prices would go down. B．Energy prices would rise very fast. C．More oil would be shipped by sea. D．Countries would stop using oil. 3．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A．The Strait of Hormuz is the only waterway connecting the Persian Gulf to the Indian Ocean. B．Less than 20% of the world’s sea-shipped oil goes through the strait. C．The strait is mainly used by tourists and travelers today. D．There are many other waterways that can replace (代替) the Strait of Hormuz. B Orbis is a world-famous international charity working to fight against blindness. Different from common charity groups, it has a special "hospital on wheels" — a plane that travels across poor areas. For many poor people living in remote places, this plane is their only hope to regain eyesight. In many developing areas, medical resources are extremely limited. Local doctors lack professional skills to treat serious eye diseases, while poor families cannot afford expensive medical treatment. As a result, thousands of people lose their sight every year because of curable eye problems. That is the reason why Orbis was set up. On the plane, volunteer doctors from all over the world perform free eye operations for patients. Meanwhile, local doctors and nurses are invited on board to receive professional training. They learn practical skills and advanced medical knowledge face to face. After Orbis leaves, these local medical workers will continue to help people around them. In this way, the power of kindness lasts forever. Over the past years, Orbis has flown to nearly 100 countries and regions. Millions of blind patients have got their eyesight back, and tens of thousands of medical workers have improved their skills. Orbis holds the belief that treating blindness is not just about curing eyes, but also helping people rebuild their lives and hopes. Blindness takes away people’s sight, but love and care can bring light back to their world. 6. What is special about Orbis? A. It raises money for poor kids. B. It uses a plane as a mobile hospital. C. It only trains doctors in big cities. D. It mainly offers services in developed countries. 7. Why do so many people become blind in remote areas? ① Medical conditions are poor. ② They can’t pay for treatment. ③ They refuse to take medicine. ④ There are no doctors at all. A. ①② B. ①③ C. ②④ D. ③④ 8. What do local doctors do on Orbis’s plane? A. They drive the plane to different places. B. They donate money to poor patients. C. They receive professional training. D. They travel for fun. 9. What can we infer from the passage? A. Orbis stops working after leaving a place. B. Orbis’s influence can last for a long time. C. All eye diseases can be cured easily now. D. Orbis only offers help to adults. 10. What is the writer’s attitude towards Orbis? A. Worried. B. Doubtful. C. Praiseful. D. Uninterested. C The idea of helping others stayed with me all week. When Saturday came, I gathered my courage and explained it all to Mr Turner, who runs a bakery(面包店);my family's past situation, the food bank, and my hope to help more people. “Sounds like a wonderful idea, Meghan,” Mr Turner said, his face breaking into a smile.“And you know I can't stand food waste.” I couldn't wait to tell Kyla, my best friend. After I explained everything, her eyes lighted.“That's great, Meghan!” she exclaimed. Then she added in a conspiratorial whisper,“But maybe we can do even more?” More? That sounded unbelievably exciting!“Tell me,” I urged,“what's your idea?” “I want to use social media for something positive,” she explained, her voice full of joy.“I' ll write a post online about the food bank and ask for donations.” Pure genius! The plan worked perfectly. With Kyla's many followers, hundreds saw her post. Over the following weeks, the food bank received a steady stream of donations from local businesses and residents. Maureen, the kind lady who ran it, was always so grateful. She once told us with tears in her eyes,“ ▲ ” About a month later, another piece of good news arrived.“I' ve got a job, Meghan!” Dad shouted one evening. Our family's situation was finally improving. Even though we were in a better place financially, I kept my job at the bakery——I loved it too much——and I still went to the food bank every Saturday with Kyla to help Maureen. It wasn't about life necessity any more; it was about community. Kyla and I always went to the supermarket, but never before 6:00 p. m.! We loved searching the shelves for yellow-sticker items and sometimes found something cheaper. “What's kale?” I asked, holding up the vegetable. “Looks like a kind of cabbage,” Kyla replied. “Okay, it's only 45 cents. Maybe I can cook it with these mushrooms and this beef,” I mused. As usual, Kyla slept over at my house that Saturday. We crowded into the kitchen, experimenting with the beef, mushrooms, and the kale. The wonderful smell filled the kitchen, mirroring the warmth we felt. It was a simple meal, but it represented something bigger——a small kindness that had started as a simple idea and grown into a light that brightened our whole community. ( ) 28. What can we infer from Mr Turner's words“And you know I can't stand food waste”? A. He supports Meghan. B. He disagrees with Meghan. C. He plans to give Meghan the unsold food. D. He plans to sell the food at a lower price. ( ) 29. Which sentence is most suitable for ▲ ? A. You are bringing more than just help; you are bringing jobs. B. You are bringing more than just bread; you are bringing changes. C. You are bringing more than just food; you are bringing hope. D. You are bringing more than just kindness; you are bringing money. ( ) 30. What may be the best title of the text? A. The Power of a Small Act B. How Social Media Helps C. A Girl's Big Idea D. Friendship and Food 四、七选五 阅读下列短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 More middle schools in China start to set up one-day charity study trips for students these years.

Some children run away from home after family accidents, while others are forced to wander outside because of extreme poverty. Without enough food and safe houses, they struggle to make a living on noisy city streets every day. A UK-based charity named Kids Home was founded in 1999 specially to give warm and practical support to these poor youngsters. The charity has a special fundraising rule. It never accepts large money donations from big companies or wealthy businessmen. Instead, its daily running cost mainly comes from second-hand clothes, used books and small pocket money donated by ordinary middle school students across the country. To solve homeless kids’ basic living troubles, Kids Home opens several warm temporary shelters in poor downtown areas. In these shelters, homeless children can get free healthy meals and tidy sleeping rooms every single day. Besides daily necessities, college volunteers come here on weekdays to provide free after-school classes for them, helping those poor kids make up for missing school lessons. Apart from material help and free education, the charity also pays attention to children’s mental health. It offers free psychological comfort to lonely homeless kids and trains local young people to be community volunteers. These volunteers patrol city streets regularly to look for wandering kids. Up to now, over 3,000 homeless children have received all kinds of help. Its workers always hold the view that small kindness from ordinary people can light up poor children’s whole future. 1. When was the charity Kids Home set up? 2. Where does Kids Home come from? 3. What do kids get in the charity’s shelters? 4. Who receive free lessons from volunteer teachers? 5. Where do volunteers look for homeless children? 八年级英语 第8页 共6页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
