【导语】本文主要介绍了张先生的传统中式家庭,以及一家人在张先生母亲生日当天,通过为母亲洗脚、梳头等暖心举动传递亲情的故事,并借此强调了“尊老爱幼”的中华传统美德,点明家庭是承载幸福的港湾。
1.句意:张先生的母亲和他们住在一起,帮忙照顾孩子。根据“Mr. Zhang’s mother lives with them...helps look after the kid.”可知,前后是并列关系,用and“和”连接。故填and。
2.句意:他们彼此相爱,过着幸福的生活。“live a...life”是固定短语,意为“过着……的生活”,happy是辅音音素开头的单词,所以此处用不定冠词a。故填a。
3.句意:这对夫妇想做点什么来表达他们对她的爱。根据“The couple wanted to do something...their love for her.”可知,此处用动词不定式作目的状语,表示“为了表达他们对她的爱”。故填to show。
4.句意:他脱下她的鞋袜,把她的脚放进水里。根据“put her...into the water”可知,此处指把她的双脚放进水里,foot的复数形式是feet。故填feet。
5.句意:他的妻子慢慢地帮他妈妈梳理头发。根据“His wife helped to comb (梳理) his mother’s hair...”可知,此处用副词修饰动词comb,slow的副词形式是slowly。故填slowly。
6.句意:看到这一幕,男孩效仿了他的母亲。根据“His wife helped to comb (梳理) his mother’s hair”可知,此处描述过去发生的事情,用一般过去时,follow的过去式是followed。故填followed。
7.句意:每个人都能感受到家庭中的温暖和爱。根据“the...and love”可知,此处用名词与love并列,warm的名词形式是warmth。故填warmth。
8.句意:众所周知,尊老爱幼是中国的优良传统。根据“...the old and taking care of the young”可知,此处用动名词短语作主语,respect的动名词形式是respecting,句首首字母大写。故填Respecting。
9.句意:我们应该尽力照顾我们的家人。try one’s best to do sth.是固定短语,意为“尽力做某事”,所以此处用good的最高级best。故填best。
10.句意:我们必须尽可能多地去看望父母,即使我们可能在很远的地方工作,也要花时间陪伴他们。根据“spend time with...”可知,此处用宾格them作介词with的宾语。故填them。
(25-26八年级上·浙江台州·阶段检测)阅读下面短文,在空白处填入一个适当的词,或填入括号中所给单词的正确形式。
Good morning! Do you always do chores if you’re free? What’s your opinion about it? I think doing chores can shape our lives. I’d like to share an experience 1 you.
Last Sunday, my grandma felt 2 (sick) and my parents had to take her to the hospital. I stayed at home and decided 3 (clean) up the house thoroughly (彻底地). It was my 4 (one) time to do such a big cleaning. I swept the floor, mopped every corner, and organized my messy bookshelf. It took me almost two hours to make the house tidy and bright. 5 my parents and grandma came back, they were so amazed 6 they couldn’t say a word.
After that, I came to realize that doing housework makes differences in many ways. We are usually busy with schoolwork on weekdays. Doing chores might be a nice break from 7 (study). Also, it helps children to be more independent. It teaches 8 (they) skills in life and learning. What’s more, doing chores such as cooking 9 (meal) sometimes can be fun. Doing chores help children spend time together with their family and give them a feeling of belonging, too.
So, could you please 10 (join) me in doing housework? If we all do chores on our own, our society will become better in the future.
【答案】
1.with 2.sick 3.to clean 4.first 5.When 6.that 7.studying 8.them 9.meals 10.join
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,作者通过分享自己打扫房间的经历,阐述了做家务的好处,并呼吁大家一起参与家务劳动。
1.句意:我想和你分享一次经历。share sth. with sb.“与某人分享某物”。故填with。
2.句意:上周日,我奶奶感到不舒服,我父母不得不带她去医院。根据“my grandma felt”可知,felt是系动词,后接形容词作表语,sick“生病的”。故填sick。
3.句意:我待在家里,决定彻底打扫房子。decide to do sth.“决定做某事”,此处应用动词不定式作宾语。故填to clean。
4.句意:这是我第一次做这样的大扫除。根据“It was my...time to do such a big cleaning”可知,此处表示“第一次”,需用序数词first“第一次”。故填first。
5.句意:当我的父母和奶奶回来时,他们如此惊讶,以至于一句话都说不出来。根据“my parents and grandma came back, they were so amazed ”可知,应是当他们回来时,他们很惊讶,此处引导时间状语从句,表示“当……时候”,需用连词when。故填When。
6.句意:当我的父母和奶奶回来时,他们如此惊讶,以至于一句话都说不出来。根据“they were so amazed...they couldn’t say a word.”可知,他们应是如此惊讶,以至于一句话都说不出来,so...that...“太……以至于……”。故填that。
7.句意:做家务或许是学习之余的一个好调剂。根据“from”是介词可知,介词后接动词时,需用动词的动名词形式。study的动名词为studying“学习”。故填studying。
8.句意:它教给他们生活和学习方面的技能。根据“teach”是及物动词可知,及物动词后需接人称代词的宾格形式作宾语。they是主格,其宾格为them“他们”。故填them。
9.句意:此外,做诸如做饭之类的家务有时会很有趣。根据“meal”是可数名词可知,此处表示泛指做饭这一行为,并非单一的一顿饭,需用可数名词的复数形式。meal的复数为meals。故填meals。
10.句意:所以,你能和我一起做家务吗?根据“could you please...”可知,情态动词could后接动词原形。故填join。
二、阅读理解
(25-26八年级上·浙江杭州·阶段检测)Every Saturday, 14-year-old Mia had to help wash clothes. But she hated it. One day, when her mother asked her to wash socks, she complained (抱怨) and threw them into the basket, “Why me?” Her mother was cleaning the kitchen floor and answered, “We’re a family, aren’t we?”
Mia felt upset. Her friend Emma’s house was always clean because they had a cleaner. “Why don’t we hire (雇佣) a cleaner?” Mia asked. Her mother replied, “Doing chores teaches responsibility (责任).”
Last week, Mia’s history teacher gave a project called “Hidden Heroes.” While researching, Mia found a story about Mierle Ukeles, an artist from the 1970s. Ukeles called housework “art” and even cleaned museums to show its importance. Mia was surprised—could chores be special?
That weekend, Mia noticed things she had never seen before: her father fixed the sink (水槽), ________, and her brother watered flowers carefully outside. She realized their home needed everyone’s care.
For her project, Mia made a video and showed pride (自豪) in her family’s Saturday chores. She wrote funny titles like “Dad: Fixer and Breakfast Maker” and “Mom: Cleaning Boss.” When she showed the video, her classmates loved it. Emma said, “Maybe chores aren’t so bad.”
Now, Mia still doesn’t love washing, but she understands its value. As Ukeles said, “In fact, chores aren’t boring—they keep life going well.”
1.Why did Mia complain according to Paragraph 1?
A.She hated school projects. B.She had to help wash clothes.
C.Her mother was too strict. D.Emma’s house was too dirty.
2.Which sentence can best be put in the blank “________” in Para. 4?
A.her house was always perfectly clean
B.her history teacher praised her project
C.Ukeles cleaned museums for many years
D.her mother’s hands looked dirty from cleaning
3.What can we know about Mia’s video project?
A.It showed her pride in the family’s work.
B.It made her classmates laugh at her.
C.It was about some famous artists.
D.It showed her bad feeling to her father.
4.How does Mia feel about chores in the end?
A.Angry and tired. B.Bored but confident.
C.Dislikes them but understands their value. D.Comfortable and pleased.
【答案】1.B 2.D 3.A 4.C
【导语】本文主要讲述了14岁的米娅原本讨厌做家务,在与母亲交流以及完成“隐藏英雄”项目过程中,她对家务有了新的认识,最终理解了家务的价值。文章通过米娅的经历展现了人们对家务态度的转变过程。
1.细节理解题。根据“Every Saturday, 14-year-old Mia had to help wash clothes. But she hated it. One day, when her mother asked her to wash socks, she complained (抱怨) and threw them into the basket”可知,米娅讨厌洗衣服,所以当妈妈让她洗袜子时她抱怨起来,所以她抱怨是因为她不得不帮忙洗衣服。故选B。
2.推理判断题。根据“That weekend, Mia noticed things she had never seen before: her father fixed the sink (水槽)”以及“She realized their home needed everyone’s care.”可知,此处是在描述家里每个人为家庭所做的家务,结合选项可知,D选项“她妈妈的手因为打扫而显得很脏”符合语境,能体现出妈妈也在为家庭付出做家务。故选D。
3.细节理解题。根据“For her project, Mia made a video and showed pride (自豪) in her family’s Saturday chores.”可知,米娅的视频展示了她对家庭工作的自豪。故选A。
4.推理判断题。根据“Now, Mia still doesn’t love washing, but she understands its value.”可知,米娅仍然不喜欢洗衣服,但她理解了它的价值,即不喜欢但理解了家务。故选C。
(25-26八年级上·安徽亳州·阶段检测)I teach English in Russia. I really don’t like that class “Talk about your family”. The students say, “There are five people in my family. My mother, my father…” It sounds like all families are the same.
Our families are one and only. All have their stories, jokes and so on. They’re the place where our personalities (性格) were made.
We know our families so well that we even think they’re boring. Not at all. Families are the most special things. If you dig (挖掘) enough into your own, you will get everything for a great book.
My mother started making our family tree years ago, not expecting to get far. However, reading the old records and visiting libraries, she got back 300 years. She found some old stories. What happened to the old big family farm? Where did the family fortune (财富) go in the 1870s?
I’m the traveler in my family, and I love travelling. I always think I got it from a great-grandfather. My two favorite family heirlooms (传家宝) are a photo of him on a horse and a postcard from China. If you look at your family, you open a window to the past.
When my mother, still putting the family tree together, asked me for a few names from my Russian wife’s family, my wife got on the phone to check a name or two. But she spent an hour talking with her mother. So you can see that some people start talking about their family stories and they might never stop.
To go back to that English class, let’s look at some interesting ways to talk about families. English is rich in idioms (习语) to talk about family life. The black sheep of the family is someone who brings family trouble. If you’re true to your family, you can say “blood (血) is thicker than water”. “Who wears the trousers in your family?” means “Who’s the head of your family?” And stories behind them are what I want to hear.
1.What does “it” refer to in Paragraph 5?
A.His family tree B.His family heirloom
C.His love for travelling D.His family story
2.What can we learn from the passage?
A.The writer doesn’t really like his teaching job in Russia.
B.The writer wants to make a great book for his family.
C.The writer’s mother visited libraries to get the family heirlooms.
D.The writer’s wife is very interested in the family stories.
3.Amy decides almost everything in the family, so which of the following can describe her?
A.Her blood is thicker than water. B.She is the black sheep of the family.
C.She wears the trousers in the family. D.She is the breadwinner of the family.
4.What’s the best title of the passage?
A.It’s interesting but hard to make a family tree.
B.Every family in Russia is the same with five people.
C.English idioms about family are useful in an English class.
D.Each family has special stories and we should explore (探索) them.
【答案】1.C 2.D 3.C 4.D
【导语】本文作者通过自己在俄罗斯的教学经历引出对家庭的思考,强调每个家庭都有独特的故事与传承,并介绍了几个与家庭相关的英语习语。
1.词句猜测题。根据“I’m the traveler in my family, and I love travelling. I always think I got it from a great-grandfather.”可知,作者热爱旅行,并认为自己这种热爱是曾祖父传下来的,“it”指代前文的“love for travelling”。故选C。
2.细节理解题。根据“my wife got on the phone to check a name or two. But she spent an hour talking with her mother.”可知,作者的妻子与母亲长时间通话讨论家族故事,说明她对家族故事非常感兴趣。故选D。
3.细节理解题。根据最后一段“Who wears the trousers in your family?” means “Who’s the head of your family?”可知,这个习语意为“当家作主的人”。Amy在家庭中几乎决定所有事,因此“She wears the trousers in the family.”适合形容她。故选C。
4.最佳标题题。全文围绕“每个家庭都有独特的故事”展开,作者通过家谱调查、家族传家宝、妻子与母亲的长谈等例子,强调探索家庭故事的价值,并在最后鼓励用更生动的方式谈论家庭。因此D项最能概括主旨。故选D。

After that, I came to realize that doing housework makes differences in many ways. We are usually busy with schoolwork on weekdays. Doing chores might be a nice break from 7 (study). Also, it helps children to be more independent. It teaches 8 (they) skills in life and learning. What’s more, doing chores such as cooking 9 (meal) sometimes can be fun. Doing chores help children spend time together with their family and give them a feeling of belonging, too.
So, could you please 10 (join) me in doing housework? If we all do chores on our own, our society will become better in the future.

(25-26八年级上·浙江杭州·阶段检测)Every Saturday, 14-year-old Mia had to help wash clothes. But she hated it. One day, when her mother asked her to wash socks, she complained (抱怨) and threw them into the basket, “Why me?” Her mother was cleaning the kitchen floor and answered, “We’re a family, aren’t we?”
Mia felt upset. Her friend Emma’s house was always clean because they had a cleaner. “Why don’t we hire (雇佣) a cleaner?” Mia asked. Her mother replied, “Doing chores teaches responsibility (责任).”
Last week, Mia’s history teacher gave a project called “Hidden Heroes.” While researching, Mia found a story about Mierle Ukeles, an artist from the 1970s. Ukeles called housework “art” and even cleaned museums to show its importance. Mia was surprised—could chores be special?
That weekend, Mia noticed things she had never seen before: her father fixed the sink (水槽), ________, and her brother watered flowers carefully outside. She realized their home needed everyone’s care.
For her project, Mia made a video and showed pride (自豪) in her family’s Saturday chores. She wrote funny titles like “Dad: Fixer and Breakfast Maker” and “Mom: Cleaning Boss.” When she showed the video, her classmates loved it. Emma said, “Maybe chores aren’t so bad.”

(25-26八年级上·安徽亳州·阶段检测)I teach English in Russia. I really don’t like that class “Talk about your family”. The students say, “There are five people in my family. My mother, my father…” It sounds like all families are the same.
Our families are one and only. All have their stories, jokes and so on. They’re the place where our personalities (性格) were made.
We know our families so well that we even think they’re boring. Not at all. Families are the most special things. If you dig (挖掘) enough into your own, you will get everything for a great book.
My mother started making our family tree years ago, not expecting to get far. However, reading the old records and visiting libraries, she got back 300 years. She found some old stories. What happened to the old big family farm? Where did the family fortune (财富) go in the 1870s?
I’m the traveler in my family, and I love travelling. I always think I got it from a great-grandfather. My two favorite family heirlooms (传家宝) are a photo of him on a horse and a postcard from China. If you look at your family, you open a window to the past.
When my mother, still putting the family tree together, asked me for a few names from my Russian wife’s family, my wife got on the phone to check a name or two. But she spent an hour talking with her mother. So you can see that some people start talking about their family stories and they might never stop.
To go back to that English class, let’s look at some interesting ways to talk about families. English is rich in idioms (习语) to talk about family life. The black sheep of the family is someone who brings family trouble. If you’re true to your family, you can say “blood (血) is thicker than water”. “Who wears the trousers in your family?” means “Who’s the head of your family?” And stories behind them are what I want to hear.
