Fennec foxes also live here.Their big ears help them cool down their bodies.

Sometimes they can only see their children through the eyes of a protector.For example,a teacher might see a trip to a big city as a valuable experience.However, it might seem too dangerous to a parent. Another problem is that parents may expect their children's interests to be similar to their own.If they love science,they may try to force their child to love science too..But what if(要是…又怎样)their child's true love is art,.or writing,. or car repair? Parents usually want to pass on their values to their children.But should children always believe what their parents do?When children are young,they believe that their parents are always right.But when they get older,they will have different ways of thinking. The most important thing to realize is that we all have many teachers in our lives.Our parents teach us,our teachers teach us,and our friends teach us.Books, online videos,and AI tools also teach us.All of them are valuable. 41.What do parents think of a trip to a big city? 八年级英语试卷第7页（共8页) 42.Do children believe their parents all the time? 43.According to the passage,why does the writer say "All of them are valuable." in the last paragraph? 44.What do you think parents should do to their children?Write 30 words or more. 5、书面表达（满分20分） 45.假定你是李辉，你的外国好友Eic给你发来一封邮件。请仔细阅读这封邮 件并写一封回信。内容包括： (1)对他来中国表示欢迎； (2)介绍几条中国餐桌礼仪： (3)介绍本市可供游览的景点。 Dear Li Hui, How are you?I hope you're fine and not too busy!I can't wait to leave for China next week.But could you tell me something about Chinese table manners?What places of interest can I visit when I am in your city?
