They look like “guardians” (守护者) of the sea — their long roots not only hold the soil together but also protect coasts from storms and waves. Besides, these forests are home to many animals, such as fish, birds and crabs (螃蟹). However, mangroves are in danger now. Over the past 50 years, about 35% of the world’s mangroves have disappeared (消失). One main reason is human activities: people cut down mangroves to build farms, ports or houses. Another reason is pollution — oil spills (石油泄漏) and plastic waste damage the water and kill the plants and animals living there. Luckily, more and more countries have realized the importance of mangroves and started to protect them. In China, for example, local governments set up nature reserves to stop people from cutting down the trees. Volunteers also help clean the beaches near mangroves and teach visitors about their role. With these efforts, some mangrove areas are growing again. Mangroves show us how closely humans and nature are connected. To save them is to protect our own home. We should all do our part to keep the balance between humans and nature. 5．Mangroves’ long roots can’t ______. A．move with the sea waves. B．protect coasts from storms. C．provide home for fish and birds. D．hold the soil together. 6．What does the underlined word “damage” mean in Paragraph 2? A．保护. B．减少. C．帮助. D．破坏. 7．What does China do to protect mangroves?

Among different AI tools, Doubao, Kimi, DeepSeek and Tongyi Qianwen are quite popular among students. Let’s take a look at how they are different. Doubao is great for language learning. It can explain grammar points clearly, just like a patient English teacher. For example, when you can’t understand the present perfect tense clearly, Doubao can provide many examples and simple explanations (解释). It also helps with writing by checking grammar mistakes and giving tips. Kimi, on the other hand, pays more attention to creative ideas. If you are writing a story or a poem for English homework, Kimi can offer interesting plots (情节) and themes, which is useful for students who want to make their writing excellent. DeepSeek is powerful in learning facts. It has much information in different fields. When you are working on a history project or a science report in English, DeepSeek can quickly provide you with supported information and facts. If you come across something complex, DeepSeek can break it down into clear parts so that you can better order your thoughts. Tongyi Qianwen is really helpful for making pictures and shortening long texts. If you need pictures for a school project, just tell it what you want and it will make great pictures. Also, if you have a long reading for homework and don’t want to read it all, it can quickly tell you the main ideas. It makes study easier and faster. Different tools have different uses.

They look like real people, but in fact, they’re just digital characters created by AI companies. Xmov is such an AI company in China. Set up in 2018, it has created lots of great digital humans. People talked about the company when it presented its latest high-technology products to more than 300 guests at a launch event in Shanghai last year. The company is the first in China to create the virtual social media star named Ling, who is always seen in a traditional Chinese costume. In August 2023, the company also used a 3D AI host to show their new products to more than 300 guests at an event, which caused a heated discussion among people. Now, many companies are using virtual hosts to sell their products through livestreaming. For one thing, it costs much less than building a traditional livestreaming room and team. For another, virtual hosts can work 24 hours a day. And tests have shown that they can do the job as well as human workers. Virtual characters are expected to be used in more industries. In the near future, we may see them act as teachers, salespeople, guides and so on.

Their eggs and meat help feed many people every day. But few know that humans have kept them for thousands of years. Chickens came from a wild (野生的) bird called the red junglefowl. This bird lived mainly in Southeast Asia. About 4,000 years ago, people in Thailand began feeding these birds. Later, they took them to other parts of the world, like Africa and Europe (欧洲). At first, people did not eat chickens. They kept them as pets. But they soon discovered how palatable a chicken was. Around 400 BC (公元前), people in Israel started eating chickens more often. After that, people across Europe, Asia and Africa began keeping chickens. Chickens came to North America much later. More chickens were brought (被带到) there in the 1500s. At that time, people liked chickens more for their eggs than for their meat because there were many other wild birds to eat. In the US, chicken meat was once for rich people. During the Great Depression (大萧条时期), poor families began keeping chickens. Later, new ways to feed chickens helped farmers keep them in large numbers. Now, chickens are more than any other kind of bird. Chickens may not fly in the sky, but they have flown into kitchens all around the world! 33．Where did chickens come from? A．Africa. B．Europe.

Passage 2 25-26八年级上·辽宁省大连市中山区 ·期中 A couple of university students designed the Plufl, the world’s first dog bed for humans. If you’re thinking the Plufl is just an oversized dog bed, you’re technically right, but according to its creators, Noah and Yuki, it’s much more than that. The Plufl can offer the most comfortable napping (小憩) experience, and a sense of security (安全). And it is good for those who have ADHD (多动症), stress, and anxiety-related (焦虑相关) problems. Recently on the Kickstarter crowdfunding platform (众筹平台), the Plufl has already raised $25,000 for people with ADHD．Even though it’s not the cheapest dog bed in the world at $400, the Plufl seems to have quite a lot of fans already. Noah and Yuki said that they came up with the idea of a dog bed for humans while hanging out at a coffee shop in Vancouver. There they made friends with the owners and their pet dog, Lady. They saw Lady sleeping in her custom-made (定制的) bed, which made Noah ask himself, “Why shouldn’t people have this too?” Unlike an actual dog bed, the Plufl is much more comfortable, thanks to the memory foam cushioning (泡沫垫) and the edge that allows users to rest their heads on it when they want. Also, the bed each has straps (带子) and a bag, so it can be easily stored or moved. The oval (椭圆形) shape encourages fetal position (胎儿睡姿) (the most common and comfortable sleep form according to research), while the thick pillow border allows users to put their head and feet, having a feeling of security. 37．Who invented the world’s first dog bed for humans?

You need to do research and make choices. And things can often go wrong. One of the main advantages of travelling with friends is being able to share these things and help each other along the way. ⑤Just as your mother always says, it’s true that travelling with others can give you a feeling of safety, especially when you’re new to travel.

They write down the important things. Or they use a computer. These days, many students take a computer to class to type (打字) their notes. Some people think that using a computer is better. People type faster than they write. That means they can write more. If you can type fast, you can type every word the teacher says. Computers are becoming very common in classrooms. Almost every student in university has a computer small enough to take to class in order to type notes. Fewer students write things down. So there is a trend in schools now to spend less time on teaching kids how to write. Schools are moving away from teaching younger students how to write by hand. Many people see no need for writing by hand. However, studies advise that it is good to write things down. When people can’t write every word, they have to think about it more. They have to pick out what is important. And the act of writing seems to help them to remember. Studies show that people who write down their notes remember the information better. A new study, done by Princeton University and University of California, found that students who took notes by hand learned more than those who used a computer. In the study, 65 university students listened to the teacher and took notes with pens or computers. Then they did tests about how well they remembered and understood the lesson. Results show that pen users do better than those who take notes with their computers. 49．People think it’s better to use a computer to take notes because they can ________. A．get more useful information B．find everything on computer C．type faster than they write D．get every word the teacher says 50．If we say something is a “trend”, we may mean it is “becoming ________”.

A．Schools won’t teach students how to write by hand. B．Writing the things down can help us to remember. C．Students need to take a computer to class in university. D．It’s important for students to learn how to take notes. 主题06 人与自然——动物与 Passage 1 25-26八年级上·辽宁省葫芦岛市兴城市 ·期中 Do you know Ostriches (鸵鸟)? Let’s have a look at some interesting things about them. Ostriches are the largest and heaviest birds on earth. They can grow to be as tall as 9 feet (2.75 meters) and can weigh as much as 250 pounds(113 kg). Although they have wings, they cannot fly. Its wings are too small to lift its large body. Instead, ostriches have long, powerful legs that help them to run very fast when danger comes. Ostriches use their wings to help them balance when they run, especially when they suddenly change direction (方向). Ostriches are from Africa, and they live in desert (沙漠) areas and dry, open grasslands. We can also see Ostriches in zoos all over the world. Humans domesticate ostriches, so now ostriches live on farms in many countries, including the United States, China, India, Japan and Brazil. People feed them for their meat, skin (皮肤), and feathers. People used to think that ostriches buried (埋) their heads in the sand when in danger, but this is not true. When an ostrich senses danger, it tries to hold its head close to the ground. The color of its feathers blends (混合) into the color of the sand. From a distance (距离), it seems that it buries its head in the sand, because people can only see its body. 53．What is the main (主要的) use of ostriches’ wings? A．To keep warm in cold deserts. B．To keep balance while running. C．To help them stay safe in the sand. D．To fly short distances when in danger. 54．What does the underlined word “domesticate” probably mean? A．Kept. B．Visited.

This is happening in a tea garden in Hangzhou, Zhejiang. Traditionally, picking these tea leaves (叶子) is done by hand. However, most of the tea pickers are now in their 60s, and few young people want to take up the job. “That’s why our team started to make tea-picking robots as early as 2019,” said Professor Wu, head of the study team. This heavy (about 550 kg) but smart tea-picking robot was made by Zhejiang Sci-Tech University. Its special arms and tracks (履带) make picking tea become a very easy job. It can find and pick a tea leaf in just 1.5 seconds. ________ The team have tried their best to teach the robot to think better by using a special AI model. They took thousands of pictures of tea leaves and put them into the robot. The robot analyzes the pictures and then gets to know what to pick in a tea garden. Even though the robot is good enough now, the team still want to make it even better. Using machines more in more areas will help to save time and money. “Tea-picking robots are the future,” said Wu. “In about five years from now, the robots will do all the job of picking Longjing tea.” 65． Which of the following can be put in the blank? A．It is smarter than most scientists. B．It can get quicker if it gets heavier. C．That is difficult for other AI robots. D．That is faster than a human tea picker. 66．What does the underlined word “analyzes” in Paragraph 4 mean? A．Fills. B．Covers. C．Paints. D．Studies. 67．What does Wu talk about in the last paragraph? A．The future of this robot. B．The problems with this robot. C．The creativity of this robot. D．The importance of this robot. 68．What is the best title for this passage? A．The Tea-picking Robot and Longjing Tea B．Tea Pickers Doing a Good Job C．Robot Tea Pickers Coming into Service D．Human Tea Pickers out of Work Passage 3 25-26八年级上·辽宁省盘锦市新兴中学、育才学校 ·期中 Friendship is one of the most valuable (珍贵的) things in Chinese culture. Ancient poets often wrote poems to show their feelings for friends. These poems have been passed down for thousands of years, and they still help us understand what true friendship means today. Wang Bo, a famous poet of the Tang Dynasty, wrote a line in his poem “送杜少府之任蜀州”：“海内存知己，天涯若比邻。” This means that if you have a close friend in your heart, even if they are at the end of the world, they still feel like your next-door neighbor. This tells us that real friendship can beat any distance. Another great poet, Li Bai, was known for his deep friendship with another poet, Wang Lun. He wrote in “赠汪伦”：“桃花潭水深千尺，不及汪伦送我情。” In these lines, Li Bai used the image of a thousand-foot-deep peach blossom lake to show that Wang Lun’s love for him was even deeper. It’s a beautiful way to say “Thank you” for the friendship. These poems are not just old words. They are about the same feelings we have today: missing a friend, being thankful for a friend, and knowing that some connections are never broken. When you feel far away from a good friend, remember the words of the ancient poets. They knew exactly how you felt. 69．What is the main purpose of the first paragraph? A．To introduce some famous Chinese poets. B．To explain why friendship is less important today C．To lead in (导入) the topic of friendship in ancient poems. D．To compare ancient and modern friendship. 70．What did Wang Bo want to tell us in his poem? A．Friends should live next to each other. B．True friendship can beat any distance. C．Traveling to see a friend is very difficult. D．He missed his hometown very much. 71．How did Li Bai show his thanks to Wang Lun? A．By giving him a beautiful lake. B．By writing him a letter. C．By using a deep lake to show his love. D．By visiting him every year. 72．What is the writer’s advice in the passage? A．We should write more poems for our friends. B．We should learn from the poets about friendship. C．We need to make more friends on the Internet. D．The feelings in old poems are out of date today. 主题08 人与社会——文化 Passage 1 25-26八年级上·辽宁省鞍山市铁东区 ·期中 How is the weather in your town or city now? Are you feeling winter is coming? Lidong, or the Start of Winter, will arrive on November 7 this year. Lidong was once a big day in ancient China. Before the day, the emperor would take a shower and have no meat. On that day, the emperor and his officials would all dress in black and go out of the city to welcome winter. Today, to welcome the day, some people choose to have swimming competitions (比赛) in the rivers in some cold places such as Harbin in Heilongjiang Province. As winter comes, the weather gets colder and colder. Chinese people often eat enough food to keep their bodies warm and healthy. On the day of Lidong, people in North China love eating dumplings. In South China, people love to eat chicken, duck and fish. In some places in Guangdong Province, people eat sugar cane (甘蔗) on the day. They think this is good for their teeth. In Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, people will eat green onions for good health. In Taiwan Province, people often eat mutton. Lidong is the time to start wearing warm clothes. In old times, the emperor would hand out warm winter clothes to the officials on the day. People would also remember to give “clothes” to their lost family.

The materials used in yunjin are valuable, such as silk, gold and silver, resulting in its high collecting value. Yunjin, with a history of over 1,600 years, has the best quality among all the brocades in China. It stands for the finest Chinese silk cloth. The brocade comes out from a traditional wooden loom (织布机) as big as 5.6 meters long, 1.4 meters wide and 4 meters high. The huge loom needs two people to work, one above and one below. The process is so long and difficult that a brocade with a length of 5 to 6 centimeters takes two people all day to make and the production cannot be replaced with modern machines. Its pictures are large in shape and the use of gold and silver makes them rich and shining. In ancient times, yunjin served as materials for royal family’s clothes and to beautify their palaces. It was also used as gifts for important foreign guests. With the development of technology and changes in people’s lifestyle, young people have less interest in traditional arts which require a long time of learning and practicing. To pass down the skills of yunjin, the Chinese government set up Nanjing Yunjin Research Institute in 1957, which has helped spread the culture of brocade and built a cultural bridge between China and the world. 77．Why does yunjin have a high collecting value? A．Because it has a long history. B．Because it has the best quality. C．Because it is made of valuable materials. D．Because it is made by huge wooden looms. 78．The Chinese government set up Nanjing Yunjin Research Institute to ________. A．pass down the skills of yunjin B．develop ways to make yunjin C．help young people make yunjin D．change traditional skills of yunjin 79．What do you learn about yunjin from the passage? A．It takes 5 to 6 days to make. B．It interests more people to learn it. C．It has large, rich and shining pictures. D．It can be made by modern machines. 80．Which can be the best title for the passage? A．The First Invention in Chinese History. B．The biggest Change in Chinese History C．The latest Material of Chinese Silk cloth. D．The Greatest Symbol of Chinese Silk cloth. / 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 专题02 阅读理解 说明文 主题01 人与社会——动物与植物 Passage 1 25-26八年级上·辽宁省葫芦岛市建昌县 ·期中 Animals are important to us and they are our friends.

They look like “guardians” (守护者) of the sea — their long roots not only hold the soil together but also protect coasts from storms and waves. Besides, these forests are home to many animals, such as fish, birds and crabs (螃蟹). However, mangroves are in danger now. Over the past 50 years, about 35% of the world’s mangroves have disappeared (消失). One main reason is human activities: people cut down mangroves to build farms, ports or houses. Another reason is pollution — oil spills (石油泄漏) and plastic waste damage the water and kill the plants and animals living there. Luckily, more and more countries have realized the importance of mangroves and started to protect them. In China, for example, local governments set up nature reserves to stop people from cutting down the trees. Volunteers also help clean the beaches near mangroves and teach visitors about their role. With these efforts, some mangrove areas are growing again. Mangroves show us how closely humans and nature are connected. To save them is to protect our own home. We should all do our part to keep the balance between humans and nature. 5．Mangroves’ long roots can’t ______. A．move with the sea waves. B．protect coasts from storms. C．provide home for fish and birds. D．hold the soil together. 6．What does the underlined word “damage” mean in Paragraph 2? A．保护. B．减少. C．帮助. D．破坏. 7．What does China do to protect mangroves? A．Build more ports near mangroves. B．Let volunteers cut down dead trees. C．Set up nature reserves to protect the trees. D．Stop visitors from entering mangrove areas. 8．What can we learn from the passage? A．Mangroves only live in China. B．Humans and nature depend on each other. C．All mangroves will disappear soon.

Besides, these forests are home to many animals”可知，红树林的长根能固定土壤、保护海岸、为动物提供家园，但文中未提及能随海浪移动。故选A。 6．词义理解题。根据第二段“pollution — oil spills and plastic waste damage the water and kill the plants and animals”可知，石油泄漏和塑料废物会伤害水和动植物，因此“damage”意为“破坏”。故选D。 7．细节理解题。根据第三段“In China, for example, local governments set up nature reserves to stop people from cutting down the trees”可知，中国通过建立自然保护区来保护红树林。故选C。 8．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Mangroves show us how closely humans and nature are connected”可知，人类与自然相互依存。故选B。 主题02 人与社会——科普与文化 Passage 1 25-26八年级上·辽宁省 沈阳市东北育才学校中山校区·期中 In today’s digital age, artificial intelligence (AI) is everywhere.

People talked about the company when it presented its latest high-technology products to more than 300 guests at a launch event in Shanghai last year. The company is the first in China to create the virtual social media star named Ling, who is always seen in a traditional Chinese costume. In August 2023, the company also used a 3D AI host to show their new products to more than 300 guests at an event, which caused a heated discussion among people. Now, many companies are using virtual hosts to sell their products through livestreaming. For one thing, it costs much less than building a traditional livestreaming room and team. For another, virtual hosts can work 24 hours a day. And tests have shown that they can do the job as well as human workers. Virtual characters are expected to be used in more industries. In the near future, we may see them act as teachers, salespeople, guides and so on. It will not only reshape (重塑) many industries, but also allow human workers to put more energy into creative work instead of doing ________ tasks. The AI technology is fantastic without doubt.

You can use video chat apps (视频聊天软件) like Zoom. They let you communicate with your family and friends. You can also have group video calls to play games or watch sports together. Keeping a diary is also helpful. You can write down all your feelings and thoughts (想法). It’s like having someone to talk to. It’s an easy way to deal with (处理) loneliness by yourself. So, remember, no matter how lonely you feel, there’s always a way to feel better. 29．How does the writer explain what makes people feel lonely? A．By giving examples. B．By asking questions.

If your family goes on a trip without (没有) you, you may feel lonely too.”可知，作者通过列举“最好的朋友搬家”和“家人旅行不带你”这两个具体的例子来说明导致人们感到孤独的情境。故选A。 30．细节理解题。根据“You can use video chat apps (视频聊天软件) like Zoom.”可知，Zoom是一个类似于视频聊天软件的东西，因此Zoom很可能是一款应用程序的名称。故选B。 31．细节理解题。根据“Keeping a diary is also helpful...It’s like having someone to talk to.”可知，写日记之所以有帮助，是因为它就像在和某人倾诉一样，可以排解孤独。故选D。 32．主旨大意题。文章开头提出了人们感到孤独的问题，随后在第二、三段中分别介绍了“与朋友见面”、“使用视频聊天软件”和“写日记”等多种对抗孤独的方法。因此，本文最合适的标题是“对抗孤独的方法”。故选C。 主题04 人与社会——动物与发明 Passage 1 25-26八年级上·辽宁省锦州市黑山县 ·期中 Chickens are common but very important animals. Their eggs and meat help feed many people every day. But few know that humans have kept them for thousands of years. Chickens came from a wild (野生的) bird called the red junglefowl. This bird lived mainly in Southeast Asia. About 4,000 years ago, people in Thailand began feeding these birds. Later, they took them to other parts of the world, like Africa and Europe (欧洲). At first, people did not eat chickens. They kept them as pets. But they soon discovered how palatable a chicken was. Around 400 BC (公元前), people in Israel started eating chickens more often. After that, people across Europe, Asia and Africa began keeping chickens. Chickens came to North America much later. More chickens were brought (被带到) there in the 1500s. At that time, people liked chickens more for their eggs than for their meat because there were many other wild birds to eat. In the US, chicken meat was once for rich people. During the Great Depression (大萧条时期), poor families began keeping chickens. Later, new ways to feed chickens helped farmers keep them in large numbers. Now, chickens are more than any other kind of bird. Chickens may not fly in the sky, but they have flown into kitchens all around the world! 33．Where did chickens come from? A．Africa. B．Europe. C．Southeast Asia. D．North America. 34．The underlined word “palatable” in Paragraph 3 means “________”. A．funny B．cute C．clever D．delicious 35．Why did people in the 1500s like chickens more for their eggs than for their meat? A．Because eggs tasted better than chicken meat. B．Because they had many other wild birds to eat. C．Because eggs were easier to store than chicken meat. D．Because they believed chickens could bring good luck. 36．What is the main idea of the passage? A．Chickens are the most common birds in the world. B．Chickens are important because of their eggs and meat. C．Humans use new ways to keep chickens in large numbers. D．Humans have a long history of keeping and eating chickens. 【答案】33．C 34．D 35．B 36．D 【导语】本文主要介绍了鸡的起源、人类饲养与食用鸡的悠久历史，以及鸡在不同地区和时期的发展与作用。 【详解】33．细节理解题。根据第二段“Chickens came from a wild bird called the red junglefowl. This bird lived mainly in Southeast Asia.”可知，鸡起源于东南亚。故选C。 34．词句猜测题。根据第三段“At first, people did not eat chickens...But they soon discovered how palatable a chicken was. Around 400 BC, people in Israel started eating chickens more often.”可知，一开始人们不吃鸡肉，后来开始吃鸡肉，说明“palatable”是与“可食用、好吃”相关的意思。故选D。 35．细节理解题。根据“At that time, people liked chickens more for their eggs than for their meat because there were many other wild birds to eat.”可知，16世纪的人们更偏爱鸡蛋，是因为当时有其他野生鸟类可以吃。故选B。 36．主旨大意题。根据全文内容（尤其是“But few know that humans have kept them for thousands of years.”及各段对人类饲养、食用鸡的历史的介绍）可知，文章主要讲人类饲养和食用鸡的悠久历史。故选D。 Passage 2 25-26八年级上·辽宁省大连市中山区 ·期中 A couple of university students designed the Plufl, the world’s first dog bed for humans. If you’re thinking the Plufl is just an oversized dog bed, you’re technically right, but according to its creators, Noah and Yuki, it’s much more than that. The Plufl can offer the most comfortable napping (小憩) experience, and a sense of security (安全). And it is good for those who have ADHD (多动症), stress, and anxiety-related (焦虑相关) problems. Recently on the Kickstarter crowdfunding platform (众筹平台), the Plufl has already raised $25,000 for people with ADHD．Even though it’s not the cheapest dog bed in the world at $400, the Plufl seems to have quite a lot of fans already. Noah and Yuki said that they came up with the idea of a dog bed for humans while hanging out at a coffee shop in Vancouver. There they made friends with the owners and their pet dog, Lady. They saw Lady sleeping in her custom-made (定制的) bed, which made Noah ask himself, “Why shouldn’t people have this too?” Unlike an actual dog bed, the Plufl is much more comfortable, thanks to the memory foam cushioning (泡沫垫) and the edge that allows users to rest their heads on it when they want. Also, the bed each has straps (带子) and a bag, so it can be easily stored or moved. The oval (椭圆形) shape encourages fetal position (胎儿睡姿) (the most common and comfortable sleep form according to research), while the thick pillow border allows users to put their head and feet, having a feeling of security. 37．Who invented the world’s first dog bed for humans? A．The teachers in the university B．The owner of a coffee shop in Vancouver C．Noah and Yuki D．The people who have ADHD 38．According to the text, what can Plufl do EXCEPT (除了) ________? A．help people with anxiety-related problems B．raise money for people with ADHD C．providing a suitable napping experience D．provide a comfortable bed for dogs 39．What’s the main idea of Paragraph 4? A．The two students made friends with the coffee owners. B．The pet dog Lady loved sleeping in the expensive dog bed. C．The two students got their idea from a dog bed. D．The owner and the pet dog were both friends of the two students. 40．What is the best title for the text? A．Two university students B．The crowdfunding platform C．The world’s first dog bed for humans D．The most comfortable sleeping bed 【答案】37．C 38．D 39．C 40．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了人类使用的狗床Plufl的发明者、功能、创意来源等信息。 【详解】37．细节理解题。根据“...but according to its creators, Noah and Yuki, it’s much more than that.”可知是Noah and Yuki发明了人类狗床。故选C。 38．细节理解题。根据“The Plufl can offer the most comfortable napping experience...”和“And it is good for those who have...anxiety-related problems.”，第三段“...the Plufl has already raised $25,000 for people with ADHD”可知只有D选项“为狗提供舒适床铺”是没有提到的。故选D。 39．主旨大意题。根据“Noah and Yuki said that they came up with the idea of a dog bed for humans...”以及后句中的“They saw Lady sleeping in her custom-made bed, which made Noah ask himself, ‘Why shouldn’t people have this too?’”可知该段核心是介绍两人从宠物狗的定制床中获得的设计灵感。故选C。 40．最佳标题题。通读全文可知本文主要介绍了世界上第一张供人类使用的狗床。故选C。 Passage 3 25-26八年级上·辽宁省 铁岭市开原市·期中 Bees are interesting insects.

Or do you think it’s better to travel with friends? I will explain the advantages (优点) of both ways. ②One of the great things about traveling alone is that you make the rules about where you go and what you eat. You’ll be surprised at what you discover about yourself. Travelling alone really shows who you really are and helps you to discover inner strength. Besides, it also gives you time to think, learn and grow. When your eyes are wide open, you’ll get a whole new look at the world. ③It’s easy to think that travelling alone is lonely. Although that may sometimes be true, you’re hardly ever alone. When you travel in a one-person team, this can provide (提供) a chance for you to enjoy the most interesting part of travel-communicating with the local people and meeting travelers from all corners of the world. ④In fact, travelling to know more about the world is not easy. You need to do research and make choices. And things can often go wrong. One of the main advantages of travelling with friends is being able to share these things and help each other along the way. ⑤Just as your mother always says, it’s true that travelling with others can give you a feeling of safety, especially when you’re new to travel. If you get lost or have any trouble, there’s someone to hold your hand. ⑥There’s no right or wrong way to travel.

Students listen to the teacher. They write down the important things. Or they use a computer. These days, many students take a computer to class to type (打字) their notes. Some people think that using a computer is better. People type faster than they write. That means they can write more. If you can type fast, you can type every word the teacher says. Computers are becoming very common in classrooms. Almost every student in university has a computer small enough to take to class in order to type notes. Fewer students write things down. So there is a trend in schools now to spend less time on teaching kids how to write. Schools are moving away from teaching younger students how to write by hand. Many people see no need for writing by hand. However, studies advise that it is good to write things down. When people can’t write every word, they have to think about it more. They have to pick out what is important. And the act of writing seems to help them to remember. Studies show that people who write down their notes remember the information better. A new study, done by Princeton University and University of California, found that students who took notes by hand learned more than those who used a computer. In the study, 65 university students listened to the teacher and took notes with pens or computers. Then they did tests about how well they remembered and understood the lesson. Results show that pen users do better than those who take notes with their computers. 49．People think it’s better to use a computer to take notes because they can ________. A．get more useful information B．find everything on computer C．type faster than they write D．get every word the teacher says 50．If we say something is a “trend”, we may mean it is “becoming ________”. A．possible B．simple C．common D．important 51．The writer tells us it is good to write things down by ________. A．telling us an interesting story B．asking and answering questions C．giving us a piece of advice D．showing the results of a study 52．What can we learn from the passage? A．Schools won’t teach students how to write by hand. B．Writing the things down can help us to remember. C．Students need to take a computer to class in university. D．It’s important for students to learn how to take notes. 【答案】49．C 50．C 51．D 52．B 【导语】本文主要讨论了记笔记的方式以及其对学习效果的影响。通过对比电脑打字记笔记和手写笔记，文章指出尽管电脑记笔记更快，但手写笔记有助于更好地记忆信息和理解课程内容。 【详解】49．细节理解题。根据第二段“Some people think that using a computer is better. People type faster than they write.”可知，是因为打字比写字快。故选C。 50．词义猜测题。根据第三段“Computers are becoming very common in classrooms.”可知，如果说一件事是时髦，意味着它开始变得普遍。故选C。 51．细节理解题。根据第四段“However, studies advise that it is good to write things down.”可知，这里是通过研究结果来说明写下来更好。故选D。 52．细节理解题。根据第四段“However, studies advise that it is good to write things down.”以及“And the act of writing seems to help them to remember.”可知，写下来可以帮助我们记忆。故选B。 主题06 人与自然——动物与 Passage 1 25-26八年级上·辽宁省葫芦岛市兴城市 ·期中 Do you know Ostriches (鸵鸟)? Let’s have a look at some interesting things about them. Ostriches are the largest and heaviest birds on earth. They can grow to be as tall as 9 feet (2.75 meters) and can weigh as much as 250 pounds(113 kg). Although they have wings, they cannot fly. Its wings are too small to lift its large body. Instead, ostriches have long, powerful legs that help them to run very fast when danger comes. Ostriches use their wings to help them balance when they run, especially when they suddenly change direction (方向). Ostriches are from Africa, and they live in desert (沙漠) areas and dry, open grasslands. We can also see Ostriches in zoos all over the world. Humans domesticate ostriches, so now ostriches live on farms in many countries, including the United States, China, India, Japan and Brazil. People feed them for their meat, skin (皮肤), and feathers. People used to think that ostriches buried (埋) their heads in the sand when in danger, but this is not true. When an ostrich senses danger, it tries to hold its head close to the ground. The color of its feathers blends (混合) into the color of the sand. From a distance (距离), it seems that it buries its head in the sand, because people can only see its body. 53．What is the main (主要的) use of ostriches’ wings? A．To keep warm in cold deserts. B．To keep balance while running. C．To help them stay safe in the sand. D．To fly short distances when in danger. 54．What does the underlined word “domesticate” probably mean? A．Kept. B．Visited.

Now there are tea-picking robots working around tea plants. This is happening in a tea garden in Hangzhou, Zhejiang. Traditionally, picking these tea leaves (叶子) is done by hand. However, most of the tea pickers are now in their 60s, and few young people want to take up the job. “That’s why our team started to make tea-picking robots as early as 2019,” said Professor Wu, head of the study team. This heavy (about 550 kg) but smart tea-picking robot was made by Zhejiang Sci-Tech University. Its special arms and tracks (履带) make picking tea become a very easy job. It can find and pick a tea leaf in just 1.5 seconds. ________ The team have tried their best to teach the robot to think better by using a special AI model. They took thousands of pictures of tea leaves and put them into the robot. The robot analyzes the pictures and then gets to know what to pick in a tea garden. Even though the robot is good enough now, the team still want to make it even better. Using machines more in more areas will help to save time and money. “Tea-picking robots are the future,” said Wu. “In about five years from now, the robots will do all the job of picking Longjing tea.” 65． Which of the following can be put in the blank? A．It is smarter than most scientists. B．It can get quicker if it gets heavier. C．That is difficult for other AI robots.

Ancient poets often wrote poems to show their feelings for friends. These poems have been passed down for thousands of years, and they still help us understand what true friendship means today. Wang Bo, a famous poet of the Tang Dynasty, wrote a line in his poem “送杜少府之任蜀州”：“海内存知己，天涯若比邻。” This means that if you have a close friend in your heart, even if they are at the end of the world, they still feel like your next-door neighbor. This tells us that real friendship can beat any distance. Another great poet, Li Bai, was known for his deep friendship with another poet, Wang Lun. He wrote in “赠汪伦”：“桃花潭水深千尺，不及汪伦送我情。” In these lines, Li Bai used the image of a thousand-foot-deep peach blossom lake to show that Wang Lun’s love for him was even deeper. It’s a beautiful way to say “Thank you” for the friendship. These poems are not just old words. They are about the same feelings we have today: missing a friend, being thankful for a friend, and knowing that some connections are never broken. When you feel far away from a good friend, remember the words of the ancient poets. They knew exactly how you felt. 69．What is the main purpose of the first paragraph? A．To introduce some famous Chinese poets. B．To explain why friendship is less important today C．To lead in (导入) the topic of friendship in ancient poems. D．To compare ancient and modern friendship. 70．What did Wang Bo want to tell us in his poem? A．Friends should live next to each other. B．True friendship can beat any distance.

Yun in Chinese means clouds and jin means brocade. The materials used in yunjin are valuable, such as silk, gold and silver, resulting in its high collecting value. Yunjin, with a history of over 1,600 years, has the best quality among all the brocades in China. It stands for the finest Chinese silk cloth. The brocade comes out from a traditional wooden loom (织布机) as big as 5.6 meters long, 1.4 meters wide and 4 meters high. The huge loom needs two people to work, one above and one below. The process is so long and difficult that a brocade with a length of 5 to 6 centimeters takes two people all day to make and the production cannot be replaced with modern machines. Its pictures are large in shape and the use of gold and silver makes them rich and shining. In ancient times, yunjin served as materials for royal family’s clothes and to beautify their palaces. It was also used as gifts for important foreign guests. With the development of technology and changes in people’s lifestyle, young people have less interest in traditional arts which require a long time of learning and practicing. To pass down the skills of yunjin, the Chinese government set up Nanjing Yunjin Research Institute in 1957, which has helped spread the culture of brocade and built a cultural bridge between China and the world. 77．Why does yunjin have a high collecting value? A．Because it has a long history. B．Because it has the best quality. C．Because it is made of valuable materials.
