辽宁省鞍山市第五十一中学2025-2026学年八年级上学期10月月考英语试题

鞍山市第五十一中学教育集团教学反馈 八年英语 第一部分 选择题（共50分） I. 阅读理解（共20小题，每题2分；满分40分） 第一节 阅读下面语言材料，从每题所给的A，B，C，D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A When children read about cultural monuments (古迹) such as the Great Wall and natural scenic spots (景点) in textbooks, they often want to go there in person. As a result, the “textbook tour” has become popular gradually. Many families follow the stories in the textbooks and choose places to travel. They can experience the cultural backgrounds and historical stories in the textbooks. For example, parents and children can visit the Traditional Chinese Opera Museum to learn more about the opera writer Tang Xianzu in Fuzhou, Jiangxi. The textbook tour is a connection between reading and travelling. Through the experience, children can have a deeper understanding of the textbooks and further take pride in the motherland and their sense of identity (身份). The rise of the textbook tour is also a great chance to connect culture and tourism. For example, the Wenchuan government holds some activities to introduce “Dayu culture”. As the textbook tour becomes popular, the government should offer better services to achieve a win-win situation for both scenic spots and tourists. 1. How does the writer introduce the “textbook tour”? A. By making a survey (调查). B. By asking questions. C. By showing numbers. D. By describing a situation (情况). 2. Why does the writer mention the opera writer Tang Xianzu in Paragraph 2? A. To introduce the famous opera writer. B. To attract students to visit Jiangxi. C. To encourage students to learn Chinese culture. D. To help people understand the “textbook tour” better. 3. Who is most likely to like the “textbook tour”? A. Parents who want their children to have more fun. B. Travel agencies which want to offer expensive trips. C. Teachers who are trying to improve students’ learning. D. Students who don’t like reading textbooks. 4. Which of the following would the writer agree with? A. Wenchuan is usually the first stop on the textbook tour. B. Cultural tourism can be developed by the textbook tour. C. The textbook tour has risen mainly to improve tourism. D. The textbook tour is so popular thanks to the government’s (政府) support (支持). B As an English saying goes “Where there’s tea there’s hope”. A Chinese saying goes that “Firewood, rice, cooking oil, salt, sauce, vinegar (醋) and tea are the seven necessary things to begin a day.” Tea is popular all over the world. It is said that nearly 5.8 million tons (吨) of tea were produced around the world in 2018. In Turkey (土耳其) tea has become the most popular hot drink. This is because coffee costs have risen and tea has become a cheaper drink. People in Ireland drink cups of hot tea to get through the grey, foggy winters. Tea drinking in the UK began in the eighteenth century. Traders introduced the drink from China as something very expensive. But now tea is a common drink in the UK. In order to celebrate the popular drink, the United Nations has designated (指定) May 21 as International Tea Day. This year, many countries celebrated the first International Tea Day, including China. According to the UN, tea is more than a hot drink. It’s a big part of many cultures around the world. You probably know that people in China use top-grade tea to show respect when receiving important guests. The British tradition of afternoon tea is an important part of that country’s culture. In some other countries, tea is also offered during gatherings and talks. In addition to (除了) its cultural importance, tea is also a medicine. It has been used from old times to modern day. “Tea is cold and lowers the fire.”Chinese Ming Dynasty herbalist (草药师) Li Shizhen once said. It is also found today that tea can prevent heart disease and so on. Hot or cold, bagged or loose-leaf, tea is not just a drink—it’s a social custom (习俗) and also a magic medicine, a link (联系) to the past and a way of life. 5. Why are the two sayings used in the first paragraph? A. To show the long history of tea in the UK and China. B. To show the importance of tea in the two countries. C. To tell us the time of drinking tea in the UK and China. D. To tell the differences between British and Chinese tea. 6. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 4? A. The cultural importance of tea. B. Different ways of drinking tea. C. The best tea in different countries. D. The important rules for choosing tea. 7. Which of the following about tea is true? A. In Turkey, tea is more expensive than coffee. B. In Ireland, people drink tea to keep cool in winter. C. In the UK, tea is only enjoyed by rich people. D. In China, tea has been used as medicine for long. 8. The writer writes the passage (文章) mainly to introduce _______. A. different kinds of tea B. old sayings of tea C. important uses of tea D. the first International Tea Day C Smile Train is a charity (慈善团体) that helps the millions of children around the world, who suffer from a facial defect (缺陷). The defect happens when a baby’s top lip or mouth doesn’t form properly before birth. Eating and drinking is very difficult for these babies. The charity provides free operations, which give these children a new smile, and with it, new hope and a new beginning. Children with the defect need all the help. Although many sufferers are accepted by their families, sadly, others are not. In some countries, children with this defect are often abandoned at birth because their parents feel ashamed of them or cannot afford the operations. The good news is that the operation is not difficult. It takes less than an hour and costs the family nothing. The charity raises money and finds the right medical volunteers to perform the operations. A Smile Train doctor from the UK said, “Each child who has the operation is given a second chance at life. After years of staying at home, the children can finally go to school and be happy. Every year I perform hundreds of operations free of cost through Smile Train. Some of the stories I have heard are quite surprising. One newborn baby girl was found abandoned on a train. Luckily for her, she was found and adopted (收养) by a passenger. This lady then heard about Smile Train and brought the baby to our hospital. I did the operation and gave hope to the family. Experienced doctors like me share our skills with local doctors. In this way we make sure that these operations will always be available.” 9. Smile Train is a charity which ______. A. provides food and medical care for poor children B. raises money for all the doctors working in the UK C. offers free medical help to children with the facial defect. D. gives children without parents new hope and a new beginning. 10. The underlined word “abandoned” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to _____. A. given up B. dressed up C. called up D. brought up 11. What did the doctor from the UK think of his volunteer work? A. Dangerous. B. Surprising. C. Relaxing. D. Valuable. 12. It can be inferred from the passage that _______. A. children with the facial defect are becoming more ashamed than before B. more doctors are trained to help children with the facial defect C. fewer baby boys with the facial defect are operated on than girls D. doctors in Smile Train are always well paid for doing the operations D ①Do you want to have a better memory? When we study, we often hope what we learn can stay in our minds. Here are some useful ways to improve our memory. ②According to experts, we can learn things better if we wait for a while before studying them again. After some time of forgetting, trying to recall what we learned will make it easier to remember in the future. ③Studies show that taking a short break and doing nothing after studying can also help us remember things better. We don’t know exactly why this happens. Maybe it has something to do with the relationship between long-term and short-term memory. ④Another study tip is to change between different topics as you study. This can help us connect different ideas. Jonathan Hancock, a former world memory champion, says that imagining pieces of information in different places or connecting them with memorable pictures can make them easier to remember. This can help you make connections between different ideas. ⑤Many other experts also suggest that we should get enough rest and exercise. For example, getting 7-8 hours of quality sleep every night can help our brains consolidate (巩固) memories. Things like jogging, swimming, and cycling can make more blood (血液) flow to our brains. More blood means more oxygen (氧气) and nutrients (营养) for our brain cells. This can make our brains work better and help us remember things better. ⑥Improving our memory is not easy, but we can do something about it. 13. According to experts, what can help us learn things better? A. Studying continuously without breaks. B. Waiting for a while before studying again. C. Imagining information in memorable pictures only. D. Doing jogging, swimming, and cycling every day. 14. How does the author explain his ideas in paragraph 5? A. By giving examples. B. By comparing facts. C. By listing numbers. D. By telling a story. 15. How is the text organized? (①= Paragraph 1 ②= Paragraph 2,…) A. B. C. D. 16. What is the main purpose (目的) of the text? A. To explain different kinds of memories. B. To provide advice on how to improve memory. C. To discuss the importance of sleep and exercise. D. To tell us the difficulties in improving memories. 第二节 阅读短文，从文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有一个多余的选项。 The Charm (魅力) of Dumplings Dumplings are one of the most popular food in the world. ___17___ They have a long and cool history, and people in different places make them in their own ways.
