I knew she had a talent 2 drawing, so I decided to make a photo album (相册) with our memories. It’s 3 (surprise) that I almost messed everything up at first. I bought a plain book, but when I wanted 4 (fill) it with photos, I had trouble 5 (put) the pages together—they kept falling out! “I can make it,” I said to 6 (I), even though I felt less hopeful. What’s 7 (bad), I carelessly spread glue on one of our favorite photos. I needed to keep it 8 (secret) and started over again, but I had little time left. When I finished gluing the pages, I 9 (write) notes next to each photo. I checked the writing because Amy cares about the spelling. When I was done, I found 10 difficult to wrap (包装) the album nicely because my hands were still sticky! On Amy’s birthday, I gave her the album. She opened it and laughed at the messy glue marks, then said,  “This is the same warm feeling as  when we first became friends.” Her words made me feel 11 (encourage). This small gift marked the 12 (begin) of a new tradition: we decided to make a memory album every year. 13 (look) back, I learned that the best gifts aren’t perfect—they’re full of heart. Next time, I 14 (plan) earlier, and I’ll still love making things by hand. After all, 15 (record) our memories is more important than being perfect! 【答案】1．inexpensive 2．for 3．surprising 4．to fill 5．putting 6．myself 7．worse 8．secret 9．wrote 10．it 11．encouraged 12．beginning 13．Looking 14．will plan 15． recording 【导语】本文主要介绍了作者为好友Amy亲手制作纪念相册当生日礼物，制作过程状况百出，但Amy十分喜欢。这件事让作者明白，最好的礼物不在于完美，而在于饱含心意。 【详解】1．句意：上周是我最好的朋友Amy的生日，我想送她一件特别又不贵的礼物。根据“something special but”可知，此处指特别但不贵的礼物。故填inexpensive。 2．句意：我知道她在绘画方面很有天赋，于是决定制作一本承载我们回忆的相册。have a talent for是固定搭配，意为“在……方面有天赋”。故填for。 3．句意：令人意外的是，一开始我几乎把一切都搞砸了。空处位于be动词is后面，应填形容词。本句修饰整件事，用-ing结尾的形容词。故填surprising。 4．句意：我买了一本空白本子，可当我想往里面贴照片时，很难把书页固定在一起。want to do sth.是固定搭配，意为“想要做某事”。故填to fill。 5．句意：我买了一本空白本子，可当我想往里面贴照片时，很难把书页固定在一起。have trouble doing sth.是固定搭配，意为“做某事有困难”。故填putting。 6．句意：“我能做好的。”我自言自语，尽管希望渺茫。say to oneself是固定搭配，意为“自言自语”。I的反身代词是myself，故填myself。 7．句意：更糟的是，我不小心把胶水涂在了一张我们最喜欢的照片上。what’s worse是固定搭配，意为“更糟糕的是”。故填worse。 8．句意：我需要保密，重新开始，但剩下的时间已经不多了。keep it secret是固定搭配，意为“保密”。故填secret。 9．句意：粘好书页后，我在每张照片旁写下备注。全文讲述上周发生的事，用一般过去时。故填wrote。 10．句意：完成之后，我发现很难把相册包装得好看，因为我的手还黏糊糊的！found真正的宾语是后面的不定式“to wrap the album nicely”，此处需用it作形式宾语。故填it。 11．句意：她的话让我备受鼓舞。空处位于系动词feel后面，应填形容词。此处修饰人，用-ed结尾的形容词。故填encouraged。 12．句意：这份小小的礼物开启了一个新的传统。空处位于定冠词the和介词of中间，应填名词。the beginning of是固定搭配，意为“……的开始”。故填beginning。 13．句意：回顾这件事，我懂得了最好的礼物不必完美，而是饱含真心。空处位于句首，作句子的状语。主语I和look是主动关系，应用现在分词作状语。句首需首字母大写，故填Looking。 14．句意：下次，我会早点规划，我也依旧热爱手工制作。根据时间状语“Next time”可知，本句描述将来发生的动作，用一般将来时。故填will plan。 15．句意：毕竟，记录我们的回忆远比追求完美更重要！空处作本句的主语，应用动名词形式。故填recording。 第 3 题 surprising（-ing /-ed 形容词辨析） 易错点：学生容易写成 surprised。分不清修饰人还是修饰事物。💡提示：修饰事情 / 物，用 - ing 形容词（令人…… 的）；修饰人，用 - ed 形容词（感到…… 的）。本句是 “这件事让人意外”，所以用 surprising。 第 10 题 it（形式宾语） 易错点：常错填 this/that，看不懂句子结构。💡提示：固定句型 find it + adj. + to do sth。it 是形式宾语，真正宾语是后面的 to do，不能换成 this 或 that。这个句型是八年级短文填空高频考点。 第 13 题 Looking（现在分词作状语） 易错点：容易写 Look 或者 Looked，忘记一句话不能有两个谓语动词，还容易忽略句首大写。💡提示：句子主干已经有谓语 learned。主语 I 和 look 是主动关系，多余动词变 doing；句首记得首字母大写。 Passage 2 （25-26八年级上·安徽合肥·期中） Do you want to work as a voice actor? For many people in this field, there is no 1 (good) place to work than Japan. There, voice actors are highly respected. In Japan, voice actors are called seiyu. They start training at a young age and have to take it 2 (serious). Students must not only take voice-training courses (课程), but also learn to sing, dance and how to act. Once they have finished 3 (they) courses, they can work on films, television shows, cartoons and video games. Of course, the journey to becoming a famous voice actor is not always easy. There is plenty of competition, so finding work can be a challenge. Those who become famous may work too much and have trouble 4 (protect) their privacy (隐私). However, the voice actors with the patience and strong wills to succeed will try their best 5 (make) their voice heard. 【答案】1．better 2．seriously 3．their 4．protecting 5．to make 【导语】本文介绍日本配音演员(声优)。声优从小训练，学习配音、唱歌、表演；入行竞争激烈，成名后也难以保护隐私。但有耐心、意志坚定的声优会尽全力，让大家听见自己的声音。 【详解】1．句意：对于这个行业里的很多人来说，没有比日本更好的工作地方了。“than”提示用比较级，good的比较级为better。 2．句意：他们很小就开始训练，并且必须认真对待这件事。固定搭配take sth. seriously“认真对待……”；serious形容词变副词seriously修饰动词“take”。 3．句意：一旦他们完成了他们的课程，就可以参与电影、电视剧、动画和电子游戏的配音工作。修饰名词“courses”需用形容词性物主代词；they的形容词性物主代词为their“他们的”。 4．句意：那些成名的配音演员工作量很大，并且很难保护自己的隐私。have trouble (in) doing sth.“做某事有困难”，后面动词用- ing形式。protect的动名词形式为protecting。 5．句意：然而，有耐心、意志坚定想要成功的配音演员会尽全力让人们听到他们的声音。try one’s best to do sth.“尽某人最大努力做某事”，不定式作目的状语，此处需用to make。 第 1 题 better（形容词比较级） 易错点：容易直接填 good，看不到关键词 than。💡提示：看到 than（比），要使用形容词 / 副词的比较级。no better than 结构，good 的比较级是 better。 第 2 题 seriously（副词修饰动词） 易错点：错写 serious，分不清形容词和副词用法。💡提示：固定短语 take sth. seriously 认真对待某事。修饰动词 take，要用副词，形容词 serious 变副词 seriously。 第 4 题 protecting（固定搭配 have trouble doing） 易错点：写成 to protect。💡提示：have trouble doing sth. 做某事有困难，后面动词必须加 - ing，不定式 to do 不能用在这里。 Passage 3 My name is Dave. I am a middle school student. I have many good 1 (habit). I get up at 6:20 every morning. Then I do some 2 (exercise) for 20 minutes. I think it can keep me 3 (health). I like reading.

We should keep 10 (they) all the time. 【答案】1．habits 2．exercise 3．healthy 4．reading 5．with 6．an 7．went 8．activities 9．to 10．them 【导语】本文介绍了Dave的好习惯，讲述他日常作息，和好友Bob的活动，点明好习惯对生活的意义。 【详解】1．句意：我有许多好习惯。空前的many修饰可数名词复数，因此将habit变为复数形式habits。 2．句意：然后我做20分钟运动。do some exercise是固定搭配，意为“做运动”，此处exercise为不可数名词，所以直接填原形即可。 3．句意：我认为这可以让我保持健康。“keep+形容词”表示“保持某种状态”，health的形容词形式是healthy。 4．句意：我每天大约花一小时读书。固定结构spend time (in) doing sth.，表示“花费时间做某事”，该结构中介词in可以省略，故此处填read的动名词形式reading。 5．句意：在周末，我经常和我最好的朋友鲍勃一起去图书馆。根据“go to the library...my best friend, Bob”可知，此处表示“和某人一起”，用介词with，表伴随。 6．句意：鲍勃是一个外向的男孩。此处泛指一个外向的男孩，outgoing以元音音素开头，所以用不定冠词an。 7．句意：上周末，我们去了城市公园。时间状语Last weekend表示过去，用一般过去时，所以将动词go变为过去式went。 8．句意：我们希望我们可以在空闲时间做更多的户外活动。more后接可数名词复数，activity的复数形式是activities。 9．句意：我相信好习惯会对我们的生活产生很大影响。固定搭配make a big difference to，意为“对……产生很大影响”，故填介词to。 10．句意：我们应该一直保持这些好习惯。动词keep后接人称代词宾格作宾语，they的宾格是them，指代前文提到的“good habits”。 第 3 题 healthy（词性转换：名词→形容词） 易错点：容易填 health。不理解 keep 的用法。 💡提示：keep sb. + 形容词，意思是 “使某人保持…… 状态”。health（名词，健康）→healthy（形容词，健康的）。 第 4 题 reading（固定搭配 spend time doing） 易错点：误写 to read。 💡提示：spend time (in) doing sth. 花费时间做某事，动词要用 - ing 形式，不能用 to do。 第 6 题 an（不定冠词） 易错点：容易填 a，只看首字母 o，忽略发音。 💡提示：outgoing 开头是元音音素 /aʊ/，元音音素开头用 an；辅音音素开头才用 a。 话题2 节日和假期（共3篇） Passage 1 （25-26八年级下·浙江杭州·期中） International Workers’ Day is also called Labour Day in some places.
