In the past,there were many Siberian tigers in the wild.However, the number of them is 2 quickly now. One of the main reasons is that people cut down too many forests, so the tigers have no 3 to live in. Another reason is that some people kill them for their fur and bones, which are thought to have special 4 value. Luckily, people have realized the importance of 5 these tigers. Many nature reserves have been built. In these reserves, tigers can live 6 and safely. The government has also made strict laws to 7 people from hunting them.

As populations grow, food becomes a problem. Many deer die of hunger. Others grow up small and unhealthy. In search of food, hungry deer move closer to where humans live. They eat farm crops, vegetables and even trees. Besides, increased numbers of deer near roads can cause traffic accidents. People admire the grace and fast speed of deer. Most people don’t want these animals to be hungry and ill. Should people take action to control the growing deer populations? Should People Take Direct Action? Many people think that hunting is the best way to control the animal populations. Wildlife managers will see if there’s enough food in an area and decide its carrying capacity (容量). Then hunters with licenses are sent to help control (控制) the number of deer. However, hunting is usually not allowed in cities or suburbs (郊区). Some people have the idea of catching the deer and moving them to other places. But this method is expensive and requires finding another place that can accept the deer without breaking the balance of the ecosystem (生态系统). Scientists are also working to develop chemicals (化学药品) to control the birth rate (率) in deer populations. But this plan works for only one year at a time. Should People Take Indirect Action? Some suggest bringing in natural enemies (敌人) of deer, such as wolves, lions and bears, to areas with too many deer. But these animals could also hurt dogs, cats, and even humans. Other communities have built tall fences (篱笆) to keep out the deer. However, this is impossible for farmers. ▲ Some people are against any kind of action. They support (支持) leaving the deer alone. Animal populations in an area naturally go up and down over time. Doing nothing means that some deer will die of hunger or illness. But finally, the population will reach a size within the carrying capacity of the environment. So, let nature go its own way. (  )1. Which one can be put into ▲ ? A. Should People Do Nothing? B. Should People Protect the Deer? C. Should People Take Special Action? D. Should People Drive the Deer Away? (  )2. The writer most probably agrees that ______. A. farmers can build fences to keep the deer out B. people should leave the deer alone in the wild C. hunting is the best way to control the deer populations D. it’s great to catch the deer and eat them (  ) 3. The writer organizes (组织) his passage by ______. A. telling stories  B. using numbers C. giving opinions  D. describing scenes (场景) B ①The world has done a lot to protect elephants, but many of them are still losing lives for their ivory (象牙). At the end of the 1970s, over 1.3 million elephants walked around Africa (非洲). But today, there are only 450,000 left. This is mainly because of people’s hunting for ivory. With need for ivory in markets growing, people keep killing elephants. Now at least 20,000 African elephants die each year. ②People call ivory “white gold”. Because of its unusual look, people often use it to make expensive things, such as jewellery (珠宝) and works of art. And the ivory material itself is so strong that people can store it for long. That’s why many people are willing to pay high prices for things made of ivory. ③However, no matter how expensive the ivory is, it’s wrong of humans to kill elephants. So some scientists are working hard on making the same beauty of ivory with no killing. ④Thaddäa Rath, from a college of Austria (奥地利), has created (创造) the manmade ivory called “Digory” with her team. The chemical structure (化学结构) of Digory is completely different from that of the natural ivory, but it looks so real that it is hard to tell the difference by eye. ⑤Another scientist, Fritz Vollrath from the UK, who is also working to protect elephants, felt excited that Digory could save many elephants from danger. He said, “We still need to do more work to improve Digory so that people around the world will accept Digory and like to buy and use it. And I believe that technology (技术) like this will help protect more wildlife.” (  )1. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. The elephant.  B. The work of art. C. The ivory.  D. The expensive thing. (  )2. Which is the right structure of the article? A. ①②/③④/⑤  B. ①/②/③④⑤ C. ①②③/④/⑤  D. ①/②/③④/⑤ (  )3. The writer writes the article to tell us ______. A. Digory is a fine work of art B. a lot of wildlife is now facing great danger C. the ivory material is really strong and expensive D. scientists are protecting wildlife through technology C What are insects(昆虫)like in your eyes?Have you ever noticed them?Insects are very interesting animals. They may be small,but they are smart and hard-working.Scientists have studied different kinds of insects very closely.According to their studies,even the smallest insects have tools to help do their work. Have you ever seen a little fly called a sawfly? It gets such a name because it has a saw (锯子) that is used on plants to create a safe space for its eggs. After laying its eggs, the sawfly makes some glue. The glue fixes the eggs to where they are laid. Another insect that has its own natural tool is the poppy bee (蜂). The bees live in wood. Like people who make things out of wood, poppy bees use special tools to dig nests (巢穴) out of wood. They dig and clean out the nest to make it ready for use. When all is ready, poppy bees cut out pieces of leaves in the shape of a nest. They then join the pieces together and put them into the nest. Ants are also known for their clever use of natural tools. For example, they drop pieces of leaves into water so that the leaves take in the water. Then the ants carry them back to their nests.There are more insects than any other living things in the world. Every insect is special. The more you notice them, the more they will surprise you. (  )1. How does the writer start the topic? A. By asking questions. B. By listing numbers. C. By making comparisons. D. By giving examples. (  )2. What can we know about poppy bees from Paragraph 3? A. They clean their nests with big leaves. B. They put pieces of leaves around nests. C. They dig nests before cutting out leaves. D. They use leaves to decorate their nests. (  )3. Which of the following use leaves to take in water according to the text? A. Sawflies.  B. Poppy bees.  C. Ants.  D. Butterflies. (  )4. What can be the best title for the text? A. Insects and Tools B. Animals and Eggs C. Plants and Leaves D. Animals and Plants B) 阅读短文,从短文后 A 至 G 七个选项中选出五个可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 How was your summer vacation?

Most of the area’s polar bears live a few miles away from Ryrkaypiy. Only a few bears come near the village now and then. But last winter, over 50 polar bears went to Ryrkaypiy in search of food. The villagers were told to stay indoors to avoid danger. Now, polar bears come to the village more often and in larger numbers than ever. Although polar bears are born on land, they spend most of their life on the sea ice. The ice gives them a place where they can have a rest and catch fish. But as the temperature rises because of global warming, the bears have started to find their home disappearing. Polar bears normally go onto dry land in summer and return to the ice when the ocean freezes again in autumn. But over the past few years, the ocean has frozen later and later, and the ice area has become smaller and smaller. Unable to live on the ice, hungry polar bears have to look for food on land, including in villages like Ryrkaypiy. In some countries, polar bears are considered as endangered animals. If the Earth becomes so warm that there is no longer enough ice for the bears to live on, there will probably be no polar bears. Immediate action must be taken to help polar bears. 1.Why did polar bears go to Ryrkaypiy last winter? 2.What activities can polar bears have on the sea ice? 3.When do polar bears normally go onto dry land? 4.What will probably happen if there is not enough ice? 5.What’s the purpose of the passage? 六、书面表达 (共 20 分) 动物是人类的良友,保护它们就是守护我们共同的家园。学校英语角正在开展以 “Let’s Protect Animals” 为题的征文活动,请你根据以下问题的提示,写一篇英语短文向英语角投稿,呼吁大家保护野生动物。内容包括以下几个方面: 保护动物的重要性 1. 有助于保持动物和其他生物之间的平衡; 2.…… 动物面临的问题 1. 许多动物难以繁衍后代,没有足够的食物和栖息地; 2. 空气污染和水污染使动物们生存艰难; 3.…… 采取行动保护动物 1. 制定法律保护动物,建立更多的自然保护区; 2.…… 要求: 1.文中不能出现真实姓名和校名等信息; 2.包括所给提示,内容充实,适当发挥,书写规范; 3.90 词左右。 Let’s Protect Animals 1 / 9 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 $ 2026-2027 学年八年级上册英语单元检测 Unit 5 Wild animals-基础通关卷 (时间:90分钟 满分:100分) 参考答案 一、单项选择(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分) 15 AACDB  610 BDBD A 二、完形填空 (每小题 1.5 分,共 15 分) 15 ABCCB  610 ABDAC 三、阅读理解。(共 15 小题;每小题 2 分,计 30 分) A) 阅读下面短文,从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中,选出最佳选项。 【A 答案】 1.A 2.B 3.C 【B 答案】 1.C 2.B 3.D 【C 答案】 1.A 2.C 3.C 4.A B) 阅读短文,从短文后 A 至 G 七个选项中选出五个可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 15 EACBG 四、词语运用 (共 15 小题;每小题 1 分,满分 15 分) A) 选用方框内的单词或词组填空,其中有一个单词或词组是多余的。 1.easily 2.satisfying 3.Even if 4.protection 5.natural B) 阅读短文,在文中空白处填入一个适当的单词,或用括号内所给单词的正确形式填空。 1.friends 2.longer 3.actions 4.dying 5.largest 6.with 7.to protect 8.example 9.made 10.of 五、阅读下面的材料,然后根据材料内容回答问题,注意:每题答案不超过 8 个词。 (共 5 小题;每小题 2 分,计 10 分) 1.In search of food. 2.They can have a rest and catch fish. 3.In summer. 4.There will probably be no polar bears. /The polar bears will probably disappear. 5.To call for action to help polar bears. /To encourage people to help polar bears.(开放性试题,答案不唯一) 六、书面表达(共20分) One possible version: Let’s Protect Animals Animals are our good friends.

As populations grow, food becomes a problem. Many deer die of hunger. Others grow up small and unhealthy. In search of food, hungry deer move closer to where humans live. They eat farm crops, vegetables and even trees. Besides, increased numbers of deer near roads can cause traffic accidents. People admire the grace and fast speed of deer. Most people don’t want these animals to be hungry and ill. Should people take action to control the growing deer populations? Should People Take Direct Action? Many people think that hunting is the best way to control the animal populations. Wildlife managers will see if there’s enough food in an area and decide its carrying capacity (容量). Then hunters with licenses are sent to help control (控制) the number of deer. However, hunting is usually not allowed in cities or suburbs (郊区). Some people have the idea of catching the deer and moving them to other places. But this method is expensive and requires finding another place that can accept the deer without breaking the balance of the ecosystem (生态系统). Scientists are also working to develop chemicals (化学药品) to control the birth rate (率) in deer populations. But this plan works for only one year at a time. Should People Take Indirect Action? Some suggest bringing in natural enemies (敌人) of deer, such as wolves, lions and bears, to areas with too many deer. But these animals could also hurt dogs, cats, and even humans. Other communities have built tall fences (篱笆) to keep out the deer. However, this is impossible for farmers. ▲ Some people are against any kind of action. They support (支持) leaving the deer alone. Animal populations in an area naturally go up and down over time. Doing nothing means that some deer will die of hunger or illness. But finally, the population will reach a size within the carrying capacity of the environment. So, let nature go its own way. (  )1. Which one can be put into ▲ ? A. Should People Do Nothing? B. Should People Protect the Deer? C. Should People Take Special Action? D. Should People Drive the Deer Away? (  )2. The writer most probably agrees that ______. A. farmers can build fences to keep the deer out B. people should leave the deer alone in the wild C. hunting is the best way to control the deer populations D. it’s great to catch the deer and eat them (  ) 3. The writer organizes (组织) his passage by ______. A. telling stories  B. using numbers C. giving opinions  D. describing scenes (场景) 【答案】 1.A 2.B 3.C 【语篇解读】本文主要讲述了在美国的许多地区白尾鹿的数量快速增长,引起了一系列问题。针对这个问题有人认为应该采取措施来控制白尾鹿的数量,有人主张不采取任何措施,任其自然生长。 1.A [解析] 推理判断题。根据下文内容,尤其是 “Some people are against any kind of action.

So, let nature go its own way.” 可推知,作者可能会认同让白尾鹿在野外自由生长的观点。故选 B。 3.C [解析] 推理判断题。根据 “Many people think that... Some people have the idea ... Some suggest ... Some people are against ...” 可知,作者是通过列举不同人的观点来组织本文的。故选 C。 B ①The world has done a lot to protect elephants, but many of them are still losing lives for their ivory (象牙). At the end of the 1970s, over 1.3 million elephants walked around Africa (非洲). But today, there are only 450,000 left. This is mainly because of people’s hunting for ivory. With need for ivory in markets growing, people keep killing elephants. Now at least 20,000 African elephants die each year. ②People call ivory “white gold”. Because of its unusual look, people often use it to make expensive things, such as jewellery (珠宝) and works of art. And the ivory material itself is so strong that people can store it for long. That’s why many people are willing to pay high prices for things made of ivory. ③However, no matter how expensive the ivory is, it’s wrong of humans to kill elephants. So some scientists are working hard on making the same beauty of ivory with no killing. ④Thaddäa Rath, from a college of Austria (奥地利), has created (创造) the manmade ivory called “Digory” with her team. The chemical structure (化学结构) of Digory is completely different from that of the natural ivory, but it looks so real that it is hard to tell the difference by eye. ⑤Another scientist, Fritz Vollrath from the UK, who is also working to protect elephants, felt excited that Digory could save many elephants from danger. He said, “We still need to do more work to improve Digory so that people around the world will accept Digory and like to buy and use it. And I believe that technology (技术) like this will help protect more wildlife.” (  )1. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. The elephant.  B. The work of art. C. The ivory.  D. The expensive thing. (  )2. Which is the right structure of the article? A. ①②/③④/⑤  B. ①/②/③④⑤ C. ①②③/④/⑤  D. ①/②/③④/⑤ (  )3. The writer writes the article to tell us ______. A. Digory is a fine work of art B. a lot of wildlife is now facing great danger C. the ivory material is really strong and expensive D. scientists are protecting wildlife through technology 【答案】 1.C 2.B 3.D 【语篇解读】本文通过介绍大象的现状引出科学家们正通过技术保护野生动物。 1.C [解析] 代词指代题。根据 “People call ivory ‘white gold’.

They may be small,but they are smart and hard-working.Scientists have studied different kinds of insects very closely.According to their studies,even the smallest insects have tools to help do their work. Have you ever seen a little fly called a sawfly? It gets such a name because it has a saw (锯子) that is used on plants to create a safe space for its eggs. After laying its eggs, the sawfly makes some glue. The glue fixes the eggs to where they are laid. Another insect that has its own natural tool is the poppy bee (蜂). The bees live in wood. Like people who make things out of wood, poppy bees use special tools to dig nests (巢穴) out of wood. They dig and clean out the nest to make it ready for use. When all is ready, poppy bees cut out pieces of leaves in the shape of a nest. They then join the pieces together and put them into the nest. Ants are also known for their clever use of natural tools. For example, they drop pieces of leaves into water so that the leaves take in the water. Then the ants carry them back to their nests.There are more insects than any other living things in the world. Every insect is special. The more you notice them, the more they will surprise you. (  )1. How does the writer start the topic? A. By asking questions. B. By listing numbers. C. By making comparisons. D. By giving examples. (  )2. What can we know about poppy bees from Paragraph 3? A. They clean their nests with big leaves. B. They put pieces of leaves around nests. C. They dig nests before cutting out leaves. D. They use leaves to decorate their nests. (  )3. Which of the following use leaves to take in water according to the text? A. Sawflies.  B. Poppy bees.  C. Ants.  D. Butterflies. (  )4. What can be the best title for the text? A. Insects and Tools B. Animals and Eggs C. Plants and Leaves D. Animals and Plants 【答案】 1.A 2.C 3.C 4.A 【语篇解读】本文主要介绍了昆虫如何使用天然工具完成生存活动。 1.A 开篇方式题。根据第一段中的“What are insects like in your eyes?Have you ever noticed them?”可知,作者是通过提问的方式引出话题,故选A。 2.C 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“They dig and clean out...cut out pieces of leaves in the shape of a nest."可知,罂粟蜂在挖好巢穴后才开始切割树叶,故选C。 3.C 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Ants.….they drop pieces of leaves into water so that the leaves take in the water.”可知,蚂蚁利用树叶吸水,故选C。 4.A 最佳标题题。通读全文可知,本文主要介绍了昆虫如何使用工具,最合适的标题是“昆虫和工具”,故选A。 B) 阅读短文,从短文后 A 至 G 七个选项中选出五个可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 How was your summer vacation?

Most of the area’s polar bears live a few miles away from Ryrkaypiy. Only a few bears come near the village now and then. But last winter, over 50 polar bears went to Ryrkaypiy in search of food. The villagers were told to stay indoors to avoid danger. Now, polar bears come to the village more often and in larger numbers than ever. Although polar bears are born on land, they spend most of their life on the sea ice. The ice gives them a place where they can have a rest and catch fish. But as the temperature rises because of global warming, the bears have started to find their home disappearing. Polar bears normally go onto dry land in summer and return to the ice when the ocean freezes again in autumn. But over the past few years, the ocean has frozen later and later, and the ice area has become smaller and smaller. Unable to live on the ice, hungry polar bears have to look for food on land, including in villages like Ryrkaypiy. In some countries, polar bears are considered as endangered animals. If the Earth becomes so warm that there is no longer enough ice for the bears to live on, there will probably be no polar bears. Immediate action must be taken to help polar bears. 1.Why did polar bears go to Ryrkaypiy last winter? 2.What activities can polar bears have on the sea ice? 3.When do polar bears normally go onto dry land? 4.What will probably happen if there is not enough ice? 5.What’s the purpose of the passage? 【答案】 1.In search of food. 2.They can have a rest and catch fish. 3.In summer. 4.There will probably be no polar bears. /The polar bears will probably disappear. 5.To call for action to help polar bears. /To encourage people to help polar bears.(开放性试题,答案不唯一) 【语篇解读】本文以俄罗斯村庄 Ryrkaypiy 遭遇北极熊入侵为切入点,揭示了全球变暖导致海冰消融,北极熊生存家园被破坏,被迫上岸觅食的现状,呼吁人们立即采取行动保护北极熊。 1. In search of food. 细节理解题。 根据 “over 50 polar bears went to Ryrkaypiy in search of food” 可知,但去年冬天,超过 50 头北极熊来到 Ryrkaypiy 觅食。 2. They can have a rest and catch fish. 细节理解题。 根据 “The ice gives them…and catch fish.” 可知,海冰为它们提供了一个可以休息和捕鱼的地方。 3. In summer. 细节理解题。 根据 “Polar bears normally go onto dry land…freezes again in autumn.” 可知,北极熊通常在夏天爬上陆地,到秋天海洋再次结冰时再回到冰面。 4. There will probably be no polar bears./The polar bears will probably disappear. 根据 “…there will probably be no polar bears.” 可知,如果地球变得过于温暖,导致北极熊赖以生存的海冰不足,那么北极熊可能会就此灭绝。 5. To call for action to help polar bears./To encourage people to help polar bears. 主旨大意题。根据 “Immediate action must be taken to help polar bears.” 可知,文章的目的是呼吁人们必须立即采取行动来帮助北极熊。开放性试题,回答言之有理即可。 六、书面表达 (共 20 分) 动物是人类的良友,保护它们就是守护我们共同的家园。学校英语角正在开展以 “Let’s Protect Animals” 为题的征文活动,请你根据以下问题的提示,写一篇英语短文向英语角投稿,呼吁大家保护野生动物。内容包括以下几个方面: 保护动物的重要性 1. 有助于保持动物和其他生物之间的平衡; 2.…… 动物面临的问题 1. 许多动物难以繁衍后代,没有足够的食物和栖息地; 2. 空气污染和水污染使动物们生存艰难; 3.…… 采取行动保护动物 1. 制定法律保护动物,建立更多的自然保护区; 2.…… 要求: 1.文中不能出现真实姓名和校名等信息; 2.包括所给提示,内容充实,适当发挥,书写规范; 3.90 词左右。 Let’s Protect Animals One possible version: Let’s Protect Animals Animals are our good friends.
