B diana@frenchlearning.com From nancy@student.com Re:How's life in France? 型 Hi Diana, It's so great to hear from you.Life in Paris is pretty good!I was a little lonely at first,but I'm starting to make some friends.They helped me to learn more about the customs (here after I had some embarrassing(令人尴尬的)experiences at a party last month.I'd like to share some tips with you. First,you shouldn't arrive early to a party.It's normal to be on time or a few minutes late, But arriving early can cause problems.Once,I arrived 10 minutes early to a party.Usually that's the polite thing to do,right?But my friend looked so surprised to see me!He was still getting everything ready. Second,it's important to bring a gift when you visit someone.When I attended my friend's party,I didn't bring anything.It wasn't his birthday,but everyone else brought gifts like chocolates or flowers to thank him for the party.I was so embarrassed! 八年级英语试卷第4页（共12页） Third,you should always try to dress for the occasion.At that party it was surprising to see how nicely everyone was dressed.It was summer,so I was just wearing a simple blouse and shorts.But everyone else was dressed so well that I felt silly. Fourth,it's best not to ask private questions unless you know the person well.They don't like it when others ask them about their age,their family,whether they are married,or how much money they make.Food and culture,however,are safe conversation topics. Last but not least,make sure you use French whenever you can.Lots of people speak English here,but you can develop closer relationships with them if you use French.It's very important in their culture.I found that even a simple "merci"goes a long way!You'll see what I mean as soon as you get here! Au revoir! Nancy Send. 24.What can we infer(推断)from Paragraph2? A.French people dislike guests who come on time. B.The writer thinks arriving late usually causes problems.

DMany tests show that a small piece of this plastic on human skin can create small electric pressure().In the future,bigger pieces of this material can provide power for smart wearable tools on people's bodies.The scientist also said this special plastic can be made in large numbers. Maybe one day,the heat from our own bodies will become a new kind of clean and green energy for daily use. 28.Which of the following heat sources can the new plastic film make use of? A.Wind energy and sunlight. B.Body heat and wind energy. 答 C.Water power and body heat. D.Car engine heat and sunlight. 29.What problem of traditional heat-electric materials does the new film solve? A.It is too thin to be put on human bodies. B.It cannot create small tiny parts inside at all. C.It produces too much electric pressure in daily tests. D.Heat passes too fast while electricity cannot flow smoothly. 30.Which is the correct structure of the passage? A.①/②③④⑤⑥/⑦ B.①②/③④⑤/⑥⑦ C.①②③/④⑤⑥/⑦ D.①/②③④1⑤⑥⑦ 31.What is the writer's attitude (towards the future of body heat energy? A.Hopeful. B.Doubtful. C.Bored. D.Worried. 八年级英语试卷第6页（共12页) D Miss Martha owned a small bakery(面包店)，.She was forty,,a kind woman with a big imagination.She was always curious about the customers stepping into her little shop,wondering about their daily lives and hidden stories.

Miss Martha jumped to the conclusion that he must be a poor,hungry artist.She imagined him living in a very small,cheap room,thinking only about his painting so much that he forgot to eat.The idea touched her kind heart.She began to wish she could help him. 密 The next time he came to the shop,she acted quickly while his back was turned.She took two hard loaves,made a small hole in each,and put a large piece of fresh butter inside.Then she wrapped them up as usual. 封 Her heart beat fast as she handed him the bread.She spent the rest of the day dreaming that he would discover her kindness and thank her. 线 Suddenly,the quiet of the afternoon was broken.The shop door flew open,and the man stormed in.His face was dark with anger.He threw the bread down hard on the table. 内 “I am an architect(建筑师)！'he shouted.For the past three months,I have been working on a building plan.I draw in pencil,and I use pieces of hard bread as erasers.It works better than a rubber eraser!But now...look!" He held up his drawing.A huge,dirty mark from the butter ran across the clean,straight lines. 要 "You filled my bread with butter!"he shouted."My work is damaged!" 答 32.What does the first paragraph introduce?

Small Actions,Big Differences It's true that small actions can make a big difference to the world around us. Last month,our class held a book donation activity.Many of us brought our old books to school.I gave away ten storybooks that I had read before.We collected over 200 books and sent them to a village school. When I saw the children's happy faces in the thank-you letter,I felt very glad.Sharing books with others is really meaningful. Besides,I often help my elderly neighbour,Mrs Wang,carry her heavy bags.She lives alone and sometimes feels lonely.Last Sunday,I spent an hour talking with her and reading newspapers to her.She held my hands and said,"You are so kind."Her warm words made me feel good. These small acts of kindness not only help others but also make the world a warmer,greener place.
