A Great Time with my Family Last Saturday, my family went to the countryside for a picnic.   Dad drove us there early. Mom prepared sandwiches and fruit. I helped lay out the blanket on the grass. We shared the food, chatted about our week, and played football. I ran around with my little brother, and we tried to follow a butterfly. When the sun went down, we took a walk by the small river.   That day, I felt so relaxed and happy. Being with my family is always the best part of my life.  原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司1 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026-2027学年八年级上册英语单元自测 Unit 2 Home Sweet Home·基础通关 （考试时间：100分钟 总分：90分） 一、完形填空（15分） 先通读短文，掌握其大意，然后从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个可以填入相应空白处的最佳答案。 Every Sunday is a special time for Berto and his family.

Grandma smiled when she 2 flour, water, and salt in a bowl. She shaped it a little, then pressed (压) it with her hands, and placed it in the pan. Berto loved 3 her doing it. “It’s not just about food,” she said 4 , “but it’s about keeping our family tradition alive (继续存在).” Grandma continued working. “Long ago, ” she said, “my mother made pancakes every Sunday.” Grandma paused (暂停) for a moment as she spoke. She looked out the window as if she could see her 5 . “Back then, people didn’t often 6 ready-made snacks. Making pancakes was a 7 way for us to spend time with each other. For years, Mum didn’t even have a noodle press (压面机)—she made them with her hands. I still 8 the year when we bought a press…” She liked the press because it made her work much 9 . However, even though she liked it, I thought she felt a little sad because she was 10 a tradition. She had made pancakes by hand the whole 11 . Hearing this, although Berto had never made pancakes before, he 12 it this time. He had been watching his Grandma do it every Sunday since he was little. Grandma hoped that when Berto grew up, he would remember these times and keep the 13 . After cooking, the family enjoyed the 14 meal with a taste of love together.

Prepare breakfast Mrs White does it on weekdays. At weekends, children do it, Sam on Saturdays and Linda and Bob on Sundays. Help in the kitchen Mr White usually helps with dinner. Set/Clean the table Children do the jobs in turn (轮流). Do the dishes No one likes the work, so Mr White bought a dishwasher (洗碗机). Clean rooms Children make their rooms tidy twice a week. Clean the living room Mrs White and Sam do it on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Mr White does it with the other two children on the other days. Take out the rubbish Children do it in turn. Wash clothes Mrs White often does it. Sometimes Linda helps her. 16．Who prepares breakfast on Fridays? A．Sam. B．Mr White. C．Mrs White. D．Linda and Bob. 17．What does Mr White usually help do? A．Cook dinner. B．Wash clothes. C．Clean the kitchen. D．Clean children’s rooms. 18．Bob helps clean the living room on ______. A．Mondays. B．Tuesdays. C．Wednesdays. D．Fridays. 19．Children ______ in turn. A．set the table and wash clothes B．cook meals and clean the table C．wash clothes and clean the living room D．clean the table and take out the rubbish 20．Which of the following is TRUE? A．Linda needs to do the dishes. B．Four people live in the family. C．Sam cleans his rooms twice a week. D．Bob sometimes helps wash clothes. 【答案】16．C 17．A 18．B 19．D 20．C 【解析】本文是一篇应用文，详细列举怀特家成员在准备早餐、厨房帮忙、整理餐桌、洗碗、打扫房间等家务上的具体分工。 16．Prepare breakfast部分提到“Mrs White does it on weekdays”，周五是工作日，由怀特夫人准备早餐。 17．Help in the kitchen部分明确“Mr White usually helps with dinner”，即帮忙做晚餐。 18．Clean the living room部分指出“Mrs White and Sam do it on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Mr White does it with the other two children on the other days”，“other two children”指Linda和Bob，因此Bob在非周一、三、五（如周二）帮忙打扫客厅。 19．Set/ Clean the table和Take out the rubbish部分均提到“Children do the jobs in turn”，即整理餐桌和倒垃圾由孩子轮流做。 20．Clean rooms部分提到“Children make their rooms tidy twice a week”，Sam是孩子之一，因此他每周整理房间两次。 B Last Sunday was gray and cold. I walked into the kitchen and saw Mum standing by the wall, hand on her head. “I have a cold (感冒),” she said. I held (握住) her hand. “Don’t worry, I’ll do everything today!” First, I cut the pumpkin (南瓜) and put it in a pot with rice to make Mum’s favourite pumpkin porridge. When it was ready, I took it to my mum. “It tastes like love,” Mum said. My face felt warm. After breakfast, I found the living room was messy—toys everywhere, Dad’s newspapers on the sofa and litter under the table. I put toys in a basket. Then I mopped the floor. Mopping the floor made my arms tired, but I danced to my song, moving the mop back and forth. By noon, my legs were heavy, but the house smelled nice, and sunlight filled tidy rooms. I washed the breakfast dishes, singing happily. Dad came home in the evening. He praised (表扬) me, “Our little superhero!” Mum, sitting up, touched my red face. “You really did a great job.” That night, as I set the table—a new habit now—I knew housework isn’t just housework. It’s like glue that holds our family close. Every tidy table, clean floor and warm bowl of porridge says, “I love you.” That’s the best work of all. 21．What made the writer decide to do everything last Sunday? A．Family’s rule. B．Mum’s cold. C．His duty is housework. D．A surprise for parents. 22．What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A．The pumpkin. B．The porridge. C．The pot. D．The rice. 23．Put the things about the writer into the correct order according to the passage. ①He mopped the floor.               ②He put the toys into a basket. ③He cooked pumpkin porridge.        ④He washed the breakfast dishes. A．②→④→③→① B．②→③→④→① C．③→②→①→④ D．④→②→①→③ 24．How did the writer feel when he was washing dishes? A．Sad. B．Angry. C．Bored. D．Happy. 25．What does the writer mean at the end of the passage? A．Doing housework shows love. B．Doing housework helps kids grow. C．Doing housework is tiring and boring. D．Doing housework shows one’s ability. 【答案】21．B 22．B 23．C 24．D 25．A 【解析】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述作者在妈妈感冒后主动承担家务，从做饭、打扫到洗碗，通过劳动体会到“家务即爱的表达”，展现家庭温情与成长。 21．根据第一段中“‘I have a cold,’ she said. I held her hand. ‘Don’t worry, I’ll do everything today!’”可知，作者决定承担所有家务是因为妈妈感冒了。 22．根据第二段中“make Mum’s favourite pumpkin porridge. When it was ready, I took it to my mum.”可知，前文提到制作“南瓜粥”，此处“it”指代做好的“南瓜粥”。 23．根据文章行文顺序：首先做南瓜粥（③）；早餐后收拾玩具（②）；然后拖地（①）；中午洗早餐餐具（④）。正确顺序为③→②→①→④。 24．根据第四段中“I washed the breakfast dishes, singing happily.”可知，作者洗餐具时“开心地唱歌”，心情是快乐的。 25．根据最后一段中“Every tidy table, clean floor and warm bowl of porridge says, ‘I love you.’”可知，作者认为做家务是表达爱意的方式。 C Do you like doing chores? What do you think of doing chores? A new study shows that it can make you smarter. The study was done by a team at a university in Australia. More than 200 parents and kids aged between 5 and 13 joined in it. Parents answered how many chores their kids did each day and if the kids actually finished each job. Tepper led the study. It showed that doing chores like cooking or cleaning was especially helpful to young people. “Kids who often cook meals or do the cleaning can do other things well, like problem-solving,” said Tepper. It also showed that self-care chores and family-care chores could greatly improve kids’ ability to think before acting. According to the study, 70% of the girls made their own beds compared to 50% of the boys. However, 66% of the boys took out the rubbish and only 43% of the girls did. Tepper and her team were happy with what they had learned. “We were really excited,” she said. At the same time, Tepper pointed out (指出) that chores sometimes seemed boring to kids, so parents should pick those that their kids enjoyed. “Not all chores are boring!” Tepper added. “Find activities that your kids like. They will enjoy doing chores and can learn many things.” 26．How does the writer start the text? A．By telling a story. B．By giving numbers. C．By asking questions. D．By giving examples. 27．What can doing chores help kids do? ①Solve problems.                            ②Get on well with others. ③Think before acting.                        ④Talk with others. A．①③ B．①④ C．②③ D．②④ 28．What does the underlined word “they” refer to? A．Tepper and her team. B．More than 200 parents. C．Kids aged between 5 and 13. D．Some teachers at a university. 29．What problem does Tepper point out? A．Lots of kids learn to do chores late. B．Chores don’t seem interesting to kids. C．Parents don’t want their kids to do chores. D．Kids have difficulty doing family-care chores. 30．Which of the following may Tepper agree with? A．Parents should help kids do chores. B．Doing chores isn’t good for kids’ health. C．It is better for kids to start to do chores late. D．Doing chores can help kids become smarter. 【答案】26．C 27．A 28．A 29．B 30．D 【解析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍澳大利亚一所大学团队开展的一项新研究，研究表明做家务能够让孩子变得更聪慧，文中列举调研数据说明家务对孩子解决问题、三思后行等能力的提升作用，同时研究者也给出建议，家长应挑选孩子感兴趣的家务，让孩子在做家务中收获成长。 26．第一段“Do you like doing chores? What do you think of doing chores?”可知，作者通过两个问句开启了这篇文章。 27．第三段表明“Kids who often cook meals or do the cleaning can do other things well, like problem-solving”，可知做家务有助于解决问题（①）；根据“It also showed that self-care chores and family-care chores could greatly improve kids’ ability to think before acting.”，可知做家务有助于三思而后行（③）。 28．第四段指出“Tepper and her team were happy with what they had learned.”可知，句子主语是“Tepper and her team”，后半句中的“they”指代的就是主语“泰珀和她的团队”。 29．第四段提到“Tepper pointed out that chores sometimes seemed boring to kids...”可知，泰珀指出家务有时对孩子来说似乎很无聊，即看起来没趣。 30．第一段说明“A new study shows that it can make you smarter.”，以及全文主要讲述做家务对孩子能力发展的益处，可推知泰珀会赞同做家务能帮助孩子变得更聪明这一观点。 D 阅读下面短文，根据短文内容，从下列选项中选出能填入文中空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。 Have you ever heard the saying “Home, sweet home”? This is just another way of saying that it’s nice to be home. 31 What do you like best about being at home? Maybe you like to play with your brothers and sisters.

Every week, the children have homework, sports, music lessons and club activities. The parents are busy too. They work, do the housework, cook meals and drive their children to take part in activities. Some families do not have time to eat meals together more than once a week. Our community decided that it was time to take a break. After three weeks of planning, we took one night off. We called it the “family night”. It was a night for families to spend time together. Sports teams stopped their practices, and teachers did not give homework. On the “family night”, we decided to turn off our televisions. We also decided not to answer the phone. Answering machines said, “Please call back tomorrow.” Many families ordered hamburgers and other food from stores or restaurants so that they wouldn’t need to spend time cooking. There were lots of activities. Storytelling and card games were the most popular. These activities gave families the chance (机会) to spend time together. Children and parents weren’t so busy, and children didn’t spend so much time playing computer games or watching TV. On the “family night”, families relaxed and spent the evening together.

According to the study, 70% of the girls made their own beds compared to 50% of the boys. However, 66% of the boys took out the rubbish and only 43% of the girls did. Tepper and her team were happy with what they had learned. “We were really excited,” she said.
