It originated to honor the poet Qu Yuan, who drowned himself in a river. People threw zongzi into the water to prevent fish from eating his body. Making zongzi is a special process. Glutinous rice is mixed with fillings like dates or pork, then wrapped tightly in bamboo leaves and boiled for hours. The wrapping must be firm to keep the rice from falling out. In my family, making zongzi on the Dragon Boat Festival is a cherished tradition. My grandma teaches us to fold the leaves into perfect pyramids. It’s not just about the food — it’s about passing down stories. Zongzi reflects Chinese values of respect for ancestors and family unity. The labor-intensive process shows that some things worth doing take time and care, a lesson that goes beyond the kitchen. 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 $………………○………………外………………○………………装………………○………………订………………○………………线………………○……………… ………………○………………内………………○………………装………………○………………订………………○………………线………………○……………… 此卷只装订不密封 ………………○………………内………………○………………装………………○………………订………………○………………线………………○……………… ………………○………………外………………○………………装………………○………………订………………○………………线………………○……………… … 学校：______________姓名：_____________班级：_______________考号：______________________ 2026-2027学年八年级上册英语单元自测 Unit 5 What a Delicious Meal!·能力提升 学校___________ 班级___________ 姓名___________ 分数___________ （时间：60分钟，满分：100分） 一、单项选择。(本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) 1．The delicious dish ________ beef, potatoes and carrots.

It’s a kind of dessert made from flour, butter, sugar and icing (糖霜). Cake is a commonly served sweet treat at celebrations. And the word also appears in several English idioms (习语). We’ve learned the idiom to have one’s cake and eat it too, which means you don’t have to choose between two good things. And sell like hot cakes means sell quickly or in great numbers. Another expression is a piece of cake and it describes something that is very easy to do. Most cakes are made up of two parts: the part made from flour and icing. However, a cake without the sweet icing on top is already great. After all, it’s made with lots of butter and sugar. So the icing is not really necessary. But it makes the cake extra special. That is the meaning of the idiom the icing on the cake. Something already good becomes better because of the addition of something else. Let’s hear an example. Amy is in her new school and she loves her new teachers. So having her best friend as her classmate is the icing on the cake. We probably should not eat much cake because it has much butter and sugar. But it tastes so good! And sometimes having something delicious is better. That’s all the time we have for this Words and Their Stories. Thanks for listening! I’m Anna Matteo! 36．Which idiom can be used to describe the fact that a student good at English wants to get an A? A．To have his cake and eat it too. B．Sell like hot cakes. C．A piece of cake. D．The icing on the cake. 37．What’s the Chinese meaning of the idiom the icing on the cake? A．美中不足 B．清浊同流 C．雪中送炭 D．锦上添花 38．Why does Anna give the example of Amy? A．To tell us the importance of good friends. B．To show us how much Amy likes her new school. C．To help us better understand the icing on the cake. D．To advise us to get on well with our new classmates. 39．What does Anna probably think of the cake? A．Unhealthy but tasty.

A．makes up of B．is made of C．is made from D．makes from 【答案】B 【详解】句意：这道美味的菜是由牛肉、土豆和胡萝卜制成的。 makes up of错误搭配；is made of由……制成，表示成品中能看出原材料；is made from由……制成，表示成品中看不出原材料；makes from错误搭配。主语The delicious dish与动词make之间是被动关系，需用被动语态，排除主动语态的A和D；句中牛肉、土豆和胡萝卜在菜肴中清晰可见，属于物理变化，应用is made of。 2．The restaurant is famous for its ________ chicken, which is crispy outside and tender inside. A．fried B．boiled C．steamed D．raw 【答案】A 【详解】句意：这家餐厅因其炸鸡肉而闻名，这种鸡肉外酥里嫩。 fried炸的；boiled煮的；steamed蒸的；raw生的。根据“which is crispy outside and tender inside”可知，这种鸡肉的特点是外酥里嫩，符合油炸食物的特征，煮、蒸或生的鸡肉通常不具备外皮酥脆的特点。 3．—Do you have ________ else to tell me about the recipe? —________ but to follow the steps carefully. A．something; Everything B．anything; Nothing C．something; Nothing D．anything; Everything 【答案】B 【详解】句意：——关于这个食谱你还有什么要告诉我的吗？——只有仔细遵循步骤。 anything任何事情（常用于疑问句和否定句）；something一些事情（常用于肯定句）；nothing没有什么；everything每件事。根据“Do you have...?”可知是一般疑问句，第一空填anything；根据“but to follow the steps carefully”可知此处是常用搭配nothing but，意为“只有，仅仅”，故第二空填Nothing。 4．Home is ________the heart is. There is no other place like it. A．where B．how C．why D．when 【答案】A 【详解】句意：心所在的地方就是家。没有其他地方像它一样。 考查特殊疑问词。where哪里；how如何；why为什么；when什么时候。根据“There is no other place like it.”可知，心在哪里，家在哪里，故选A。 5．—Linda, let’s try a famous dish called Anhui Stinky Mandarin Fish. —Good idea. Wow! ________ delicious the fish is! A．What a B．How a C．How D．What 【答案】C 【详解】句意：——Linda，我们尝试一道叫做安徽臭鳜鱼的名菜吧。——好主意。哇！这鱼好美味啊！ 此处感叹句的中心词是形容词delicious，应用how引导，符合结构“How+adj.+主语+谓语”。 6．I had a(n) ________ talk with my brother. We mustn’t tell others about that. A．funny B．ancient C．wise D．secret 【答案】D 【详解】句意：我和我的哥哥有个秘密的谈话。这个谈话我们不能告诉任何人。 funny滑稽的；ancient古老的；wise明智的；secret秘密的。根据“We mustn’t tell others about that”可知谈话是秘密的。 7．They often ________ before they begin to play basketball. A．warm on B．cheer on C．cheer up D．warm up 【答案】D 【详解】句意：在他们开始打篮球之前，他们经常先热身。 warm on不成立；cheer on鼓励，为某人打气；cheer up使振作起来；warm up热身。根据句意before they begin to play basketball可知，在打球之前先进行热身，故应选D。 8．Students can learn something about history ________ they pay a visit to a museum. A．whenever B．although C．unless D．because 【答案】A 【详解】句意：学生们每次参观博物馆都能学到一些历史知识。 考查连词辨析。whenever无论何时；although虽然；unless除非；because因为。根据“Students can learn something about history…they pay a visit to a museum.”可知，此处表示每次学生去参观博物馆都能学到一些历史知识，whenever符合语境。故选A。 9．Children are ________ curious. They start to show great interest in the new world at ________. A．born; born B．born; birth C．birth; born D．birth; birth 【答案】B 【详解】句意：孩子们天生好奇。他们在出生时就对新世界表现出极大的兴趣。 考查词汇辨析。born天生的，形容词；birth出生，名词。第一空，根据“Children are ... curious.”可知，此处需用形容词born，be born curious“天生好奇”，固定搭配，符合语境；第二空，根据空格前介词“at”可知，此处考查at birth“在出生时”，介词短语。故选B。 10．I want to use the meat to make meatballs. Can you help me ________? A．cut it up B．put it up C．cut up it D．put up it 【答案】A 【详解】句意：我想用这块肉做肉丸。你能帮我把它切碎吗？ 考查动词短语。cut it up切碎它；put it up张贴它；cut up it错误表述；put up it错误表述。cut up和put up都属于“动词+副词”结构的短语，当代词作此类短语的宾语时，代词要放在动词和副词之间，所以排除选项C和D；根据“use the meat to make meatballs”可知，做肉丸需要把肉切碎，所以cut it up符合语境。故选A。 二、语法选择。(本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) 请通读下面短文，掌握其大意，根据语法和上下文连贯的要求，从每小题所给的三个选项中选出一个最佳答案。 On January 25th, 2021, a restaurant called Forget Me Not Cafe, opened in Shanghai.

The old people sometimes give customers wrong dishes, 16 the kind customers never say anything bad about them. They understand these old people and help to bring out the 17 in them.

Grandma used to make the most delicious osmanthus cakes in the neighborhood, but she hadn’t made them since her hands started shaking 21 a bad fall last year. Lily felt sorry for grandma and decided to learn how to make the cakes for her. She first searched online for the detailed 22 , noting down every step carefully. Then she went to the market to buy flour, osmanthus flowers, sugar, and other necessary 23 . When she got home, she put on her mom’s apron and started to 24 the dough slowly. It was not easy—she failed three times before getting the soft and smooth texture. Just when she was about to give up, grandma walked into the kitchen. “Let me help you, dear,” she said, holding Lily’s hands with her shaky ones. Together, they 25 the osmanthus paste with sugar, mixed it into the dough, and shaped the mixture into small round cakes. Then they put the cakes into the steamer and waited. Thirty minutes later, the kitchen was 26 with the sweet smell of osmanthus. Lily carefully took out the cakes and placed one on a plate for grandma. Grandma took a small bite, tears running down her face. “It tastes just like the ones I used to make,” she said 27 . Lily smiled and hugged her grandma. “I’m so glad you like it. We can make them together every weekend,” she said. From that day on, making osmanthus cakes became their special way to 28 time together. Every weekend, the sweet smell filled their home, and the cakes brought back warm 29 of grandma’s old days. Lily learned that the most delicious food isn’t just about taste—it’s about the love and care 30 goes into making it. 21．A．before B．after C．since D．until 22．A．recipes B．news C．photos D．videos 23．A．fruits B．tools C．ingredients D．dishes 24．A．boil B．knead C．fry D．cut 25．A．picked B．mixed C．cooked D．tasted 26．A．filled B．covered C．full D．crowded 27．A．sadly B．angrily C．happily D．quietly 28．A．take B．spend C．pay D．cost 29．A．memories B．stories C．dreams D．hopes 30．A．who B．what C．that D．whose 【答案】 21．B 22．A 23．C 24．B 25．B 26．A 27．C 28．B 29．A 30．C 【导语】本文讲述了莉莉为安慰奶奶学习制作桂花糕的故事。她们一起制作蛋糕，重温旧时光，体现了亲情与爱的力量。 【详解】21．句意：但自从去年重重摔倒之后，她的手开始发抖，就再也没有做过桂花糕了。 空前后存在时间先后逻辑，摔倒发生在前，after“表示在……之后”，符合语境；before“在……之前”，since“自从”，until“直到”，语义不符。 22．句意：她首先上网查找详细的食谱，认真记下每一个步骤。 想要学习制作糕点，需要查找recipes“食谱”；news“新闻”，photos“照片”，videos“视频”，不符合语境。 23．句意：然后她去市场买面粉、桂花、糖以及其他必要原料。 面粉、桂花都属于ingredients“食材原料”；fruits“水果”，tools“工具”，dishes“盘子”，不符合句意。 24．句意：回到家，她戴上妈妈的围裙，开始慢慢揉面团。 制作糕点揉面团使用knead；boil“煮沸”，fry“油炸”，cut“切割”，和面团dough无法搭配。 25．句意：她们一起把桂花酱和糖混合，揉进面团，把混合物捏成小圆糕。 后文mixed it into the dough提示此处为mix“混合”；pick“挑选”，cook“烹饪”，taste“品尝”，不符合制作动作。 26．句意：三十分钟后，厨房里弥漫着桂花甜甜的香气。 固定搭配be filled with“充满”，符合语境；be covered with“被……覆盖”，full搭配of，crowded“拥挤”，均不匹配。 27．句意：奶奶慢慢咬了一小口，泪水顺着脸颊流下，开心地说：“味道和我以前做的一样。” 奶奶吃到熟悉糕点内心十分喜悦，happily“开心地”，符合语境；sadly“伤心地”，angrily“生气地”，quietly“安静地”，情感不符。 28．句意：从那天起，制作桂花糕成了她们共度时光的特别方式。 spend time together“共度时光”，符合语境；take主语常为it，pay用于支付，cost主语是物品，故选spend。 29．句意：每个周末，甜蜜香气充满家里，糕点唤起奶奶旧日温暖回忆。 固定搭配bring back memories“唤起回忆”，符合语境；stories“故事”，dreams“梦想”，hopes“希望”，不符合语境。 30．句意：莉莉明白最美味的食物不只是味道，而是制作食物投入的爱与关怀。 先行词the love and care为事物，定语从句缺主语，用关系代词that；who指代人，what不能引导定语从句，whose作定语，不符合语法。 四、阅读理解。(本大题共15小题，每小题2分，共30分) A Join Our Chinese Food Cooking Class Do you like Chinese food?

Today we talk about cake. It’s a kind of dessert made from flour, butter, sugar and icing (糖霜). Cake is a commonly served sweet treat at celebrations. And the word also appears in several English idioms (习语). We’ve learned the idiom to have one’s cake and eat it too, which means you don’t have to choose between two good things. And sell like hot cakes means sell quickly or in great numbers. Another expression is a piece of cake and it describes something that is very easy to do. Most cakes are made up of two parts: the part made from flour and icing. However, a cake without the sweet icing on top is already great. After all, it’s made with lots of butter and sugar. So the icing is not really necessary. But it makes the cake extra special. That is the meaning of the idiom the icing on the cake. Something already good becomes better because of the addition of something else. Let’s hear an example. Amy is in her new school and she loves her new teachers. So having her best friend as her classmate is the icing on the cake. We probably should not eat much cake because it has much butter and sugar. But it tastes so good! And sometimes having something delicious is better. That’s all the time we have for this Words and Their Stories. Thanks for listening! I’m Anna Matteo! 36．Which idiom can be used to describe the fact that a student good at English wants to get an A? A．To have his cake and eat it too. B．Sell like hot cakes. C．A piece of cake. D．The icing on the cake. 37．What’s the Chinese meaning of the idiom the icing on the cake? A．美中不足 B．清浊同流 C．雪中送炭 D．锦上添花 38．Why does Anna give the example of Amy? A．To tell us the importance of good friends. B．To show us how much Amy likes her new school. C．To help us better understand the icing on the cake. D．To advise us to get on well with our new classmates. 39．What does Anna probably think of the cake? A．Unhealthy but tasty. B．Tasty but expensive. C．Unhealthy and expensive. D．Expensive and unpopular. 40．Words and Their Stories is most likely to be ________. A．a news report B．a radio program C．a nature magazine D．a travel guide 【答案】36．C 37．D 38．C 39．A 40．B 【导语】本文是一篇介绍英语习语的说明文，主要围绕“cake”这一主题，介绍了几个与蛋糕相关的英语习语及其含义，并通过具体例子帮助读者更好地理解这些习语。 【详解】36．推理判断题。根据“Another expression is a piece of cake and it describes something that is very easy to do.”可知，“a piece of cake”用来描述轻而易举能做到的事情，对于一个擅长英语的学生来说，获得A等级是一件非常容易的事。故选C。 37．词句猜测题。根据“That is the meaning of the idiom the icing on the cake. Something already good becomes better because of the addition of something else.”可知，“the icing on the cake”这个习语表示“某件已经很好的事情因为某物的加入而变得更好”，即“锦上添花”。故选D。 38．细节理解题。根据“Let’s hear an example. Amy is in her new school and she loves her new teachers. So having her best friend as her classmate is the icing on the cake.”可知，作者通过Amy的例子来帮助读者更好地理解“the icing on the cake”这个习语。故选C。 39．观点态度题。根据“We probably should not eat much cake because it has much butter and sugar. But it tastes so good!”可知，Anna认为蛋糕虽然不健康，但味道可口。故选A。 40．推理判断题。根据文章开头“Welcome to Words and Their Stories.”和结尾“Thanks for listening! I’m Anna Matteo!”等标志性用语可以推断，这最可能是一个广播节目。故选B。 C 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的五个选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选择，使短文通顺、连贯，意思完整。 Sun Jiarui, a fourth grader at a primary school in the city of Wuxi, East China’s Jiangsu province, can cook more than 50 delicacies, which is not easy for a child of her age. 41 Many people are surprised at her amazing cooking skills.

It’s a surprise from his dad. 【答案】seeing 【详解】句意：我儿子看到他的生日蛋糕非常兴奋。这是他爸爸给他的惊喜。句中“be excited about doing sth.”是固定搭配，表示“对做某事感到兴奋”，其中介词about后面需要接动名词形式，动词see要变为动名词，应填seeing。 52．The ________ (碗) on the table are very beautiful. My mother bought them two days ago. 【答案】bowls 【详解】句意：桌子上的碗很漂亮，妈妈两天前买了它们。括号内汉字提示“碗”对应的英文单词为bowl，空格在句中作主语，后文be动词为are、代词them均提示此处需使用名词复数形式，bowl的复数直接加-s。 53．Always read the ________ (说明) before you start taking the medicine. 【答案】instructions 【详解】句意：服药前一定要阅读说明书。根据汉语提示可知，名词instruction“说明”符合句意，此处要用复数形式表示泛指。故填instructions。 54．There are lots of excellent ________ (综合性大学) in Beijing. 【答案】universities 【详解】句意：北京有许多优秀的综合性大学。括号内中文提示“综合性大学”对应单词university，短语lots of意为许多，后面要接可数名词复数；university的复数形式为universities。 55．Nobody can ________ (分开) the baby from his mother. 【答案】separate 【详解】句意：没人能把这个婴儿和他的母亲分开。“分开”常用固定短语separate…from…，意为“把……和……分开”，情态动词“can”后接动词原形，空处应填separate。 六、完成句子。(本大题共5小题，每小题2分，共10分) 56．请把书放回书架原来的位置。 Please ________ the book ________ on the shelf where it was. 【答案】 put back 【详解】原句关键词“把……放回原处”对应动词短语put…back，此处是动词原形开头的祈使句，填入原形即可。 57．这些视频给我们带来多么美好的回忆啊！ ________ ________ ________ the videos bring to us! 【答案】 What sweet memories 【详解】原句中“多么美好的回忆”是关键词，表示“美好的回忆”的英文是sweet memories，memories是复数名词表泛指；中心词是名词memories，所以用what引导感叹句，句首首字母要大写。 58．我需要两杯面粉来做面包。 I need ________ ________ ________ ________ to make bread. 【答案】 two cups of flour 【详解】原句中“两杯面粉”对应的英文表达为two cups of flour。cup为可数名词，前面数量为two，cup使用复数形式cups；flour是不可数名词，无复数变化。因此应填two；cups；of；flour。 59．食物的味道伴随着我们的谈话将彼此联系在一起。 The taste of the food, ________ ________ our conversations, ________ us ________ each other. 【答案】 along with connects to 【详解】原句中“伴随着”和“将……联系在一起”是关键词，中文“伴随着”在此处表示伴随状态或补充说明，常用短语“along with”来表达，意为“连同……一起”。中文“将……联系在一起”对应的英语常用搭配是“connect...to...”。主语是The taste（单数），along with只作伴随状语，不改变主语单复数，谓语动词用第三人称单数形式connects。 60．我不知道如何处理这箱废纸。 I don’t know ________ ________ ________ ________ this box of waste paper. 【答案】 how to deal with 【详解】原句中“如何处理”是关键词，“如何处理”可用固定搭配“疑问词+不定式”的结构来表达，“处理”的英文短语是deal with，“how to deal with”表示“如何处理”。 七、短文填空。(本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入一个适当的单词或用括号内单词的正确形式填空。 Once upon a time, there lived a clever mouse named Remy in a small restaurant.

It originated to honor the poet Qu Yuan, who drowned himself in a river. People threw zongzi into the water to prevent fish from eating his body. Making zongzi is a special process. Glutinous rice is mixed with fillings like dates or pork, then wrapped tightly in bamboo leaves and boiled for hours. The wrapping must be firm to keep the rice from falling out. In my family, making zongzi on the Dragon Boat Festival is a cherished tradition. My grandma teaches us to fold the leaves into perfect pyramids. It’s not just about the food — it’s about passing down stories. Zongzi reflects Chinese values of respect for ancestors and family unity. The labor-intensive process shows that some things worth doing take time and care, a lesson that goes beyond the kitchen. 【详解】写作步骤 [第一步：审题立意] 确定文体：说明文 确定时态：一般现在时与过去时相结合 明确要点：菜的名称和起源；它的特殊制法；它对你的意义或背后的故事；它反映的文化。 确定人称：第三人称为主 注意事项：不少于80词 [第二步：构思布局] 第一段：介绍菜的名称和起源； 第二段：描述这道菜的制作过程； 第三段：阐述这道菜对“我”的意义或背后的故事； 结尾段：总结这道菜反映出来的民族文化。 [第三步：要点展开] 要点一：介绍名称和起源 zongzi/dumplings/longevity noodles/mooncakes/a traditional Chinese dish/has a history of/originated/be first used as/be invented by 要点二：介绍制作过程或方法 process/unique/glutinous rice/be mixed with/fillings/wrapped/bamboo leaves/prepare/minced meat and vegetables/ roll out the dough into thin circles/fold them into crescent shapes/be made by hand/stretched into very long, thin strands/sweet bean paste/lotus seed paste/salted egg yolk/pressed into beautiful molds with patterns on top/be baked 要点三：介绍意义或背后的故事 a cherished tradition/not just about the food/more than just food/passing down stories/remember the happy moments/a taste of home/holds a deep meaning/live a long life/remind us of the times 要点四：介绍反映的文化 reflects/symbolize/carries/respect for ancestors and family unity/ reunion/good fortune/express best wishes/the warmth of family/the hope for a bright future/a symbol of love/the importance of being together/a sweet reminder 试卷第1页，共3页 1 / 19 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
