According to the chart, we can see that flushing toilets and taking showers take up the largest part of daily water usage.     Water is very important to us, so we must use it properly. Here are some suggestions for saving water. First, we should take shorter showers instead of taking a bath. Second, remember to turn off the tap when we brush our teeth. Third, we can reuse water in our daily life. For example, we can use the water for washing vegetables to water the plants.     If everyone makes a small change, we can save a lot of water. 答案第2页，共2页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司1 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $八年级英语上学期期中模拟卷 英语答题卡 姓 名： 缺考 条 码粘贴处 准考证号： 注意事项 1.答题前，考生先将自己的姓名、准考证号码填写清楚，并认真检查监考员所粘贴的条形码。 2.选择题必须使用2B铅笔填涂；非选择题必须用0.5mm黑色字迹的签字笔填写，字体工整。 3. 请按题号顺序在各题的答题区内作答，超出答题区域范围的答案无效，在草纸、试卷上作答无效。 4. 保持卡面清洁，不要折叠、不要弄破、弄皱，不准使用涂改液、刮纸刀。 5.正确填涂■ 选择题（请用2B铅笔填涂） ■ 、 语法选择（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） 1.[AJ[B]c][D] 6.[A][B][c][D] 2.[A][B][C][D] 7.LA][B][C][D] 3.[A][B][c][D] 8.[A][B][c][D] 4.[A][B][c][D] 9.[A][B][c][DJ 5.[A][B][C][D] 10.[A][B][c][D] 五、阅读理解（共20分）本题共10小题：每小题2分，满分20分) 21.[A][B][c][D1[E] 26.[A][B][c][D] 22.[A][B][c][D1[E1 27.[A][B][c][D1 23.[A][B][c][D][E] 28.[A][B][C][D] 24.[A][B][C][D][E] 29.A][B][c][D] 25.[A][B][c][D][E] 30.[A][B][C][D] 六、完形填空（共20分） 31.[A][B][c][D] 36.A][B][c][D] 32.[A][B][c][D] 37.[A][B][c][D 33.[A][B][c][D] 38.[A][B][C][D 34.A][B][C][D] 39.[A][B][c][D] 35.[A][B][c][D] 4o.[A][B][c][D] 请在各题目的答题区域内作答货髻第翳贵翌贺界定区域的答案无效灯 请在各题目的答题区域内作答，超出黑色矩形边框限定区域的答案无效！ 非选择题（请在各试题的答题区内作答） 二、 选词填空（共5分）（共5小题：每小题1分，满分5分） 11. 12 13. 14 15 三、按要求填写句子，补全对话（每题2分，共10分） 16. 18 19 20. 六、 任务型阅读（共16分） 41. 42. 84 45. 46. 七、书面表达（满分19分） Yours sincerely.

I told him, “Not exactly, sir,” because my father had given me a ride to the train station and said, “It is important to follow your dream, son.” After talking for a few minutes, the friendly bum told me to follow him. He took me to a public library. The bum first took me to a table and asked me to sit down and wait for a moment. A few moments later, he returned with some old books and sat beside me. Then he said, “There are two things that I want to teach you, young man, and they are these: Number one is to never judge a book by its cover, for a cover can fool you.” He continued. “You think I’m a bum, don’t you, young man?” I said, “Well, uh, yes, sir.” “Well, young man. I’ve got a little surprise for you. I am one of the richest men in the world. But I realized there were certain things I had not yet experienced in life. So for the past year, I have been going from city to city, living as a bum. So, you see, don’t ever judge a book by its cover.” “Number two is to learn how to read, my boy. There is only one thing that people can’t take away from you, and that is your wisdom.” At that moment, he showed me the old books. The bum then took me back to the street where we first met.

Nowadays, artificial intelligence (AI) has become part of our everyday lives. It makes our smart equipment work, and you may already be using an AI programme in school. But advanced chatbots, like ChatGPT, are new. They are called generative AI. Ask a chatbot a question, and it will generate a whole article. Some educators worry that chatbots could prevent students from learning on their own. So, should students use AI to do their homework? Dylan Patel AI could completely change the way students learn. Many fear that chatbots can be used as a cheating tool, but I think they can be programmed to guide students through questions instead of giving them the answers. What’s more, AI tutors (助教) can provide 24/7 support for students. AI is here to stay. Either you move with the times, or the times will move without you! Harper Carroll Schoolwork should teach kids skills and develop their brains. While technology can be a useful tool, kids need to be able to do basic tasks independently. This is why kids learn how to calculate, even though calculators have existed for a long time. And that’s also the reason why schools teach handwriting and spelling, when most adults write using computers. Kids’ brains need to be exercised to develop, just like their bodies. AI may benefit adults, but it is harmful to children if they use AI before thinking for themselves. Alexa Teaching kids how to use AI can prepare them for our technology-filled future. According to a survey, most Americans think it’s necessary for students to learn AI-related skills for their future careers. Using AI can help build the critical thinking (批判性思维) and problem-solving skills kids will need. I believe that as long as it’s done well, learning with AI will change society for the better. 41．What topic is this article discussing? 42．Which of the three students is against using AI to do homework? 43．Dylan Patel is afraid that chatbots can be used as a cheating tool, isn’t he? 44．According to Harper Carroll, why should kids learn how to calculate and write? 45．List three benefits of teaching kids how to use AI mentioned by Alexa. 46．What’s your opinion on this topic? Give your reason(s). 七、书面表达(共19分) 47．Your school did a survey to find out how much water is used for each activity in a typical household.

Nowadays, artificial intelligence (AI) has become part of our everyday lives. It makes our smart equipment work, and you may already be using an AI programme in school. But advanced chatbots, like ChatGPT, are new. They are called generative AI. Ask a chatbot a question, and it will generate a whole article. Some educators worry that chatbots could prevent students from learning on their own. So, should students use AI to do their homework? Dylan Patel AI could completely change the way students learn. Many fear that chatbots can be used as a cheating tool, but I think they can be programmed to guide students through questions instead of giving them the answers. What’s more, AI tutors (助教) can provide 24/7 support for students. AI is here to stay. Either you move with the times, or the times will move without you! Harper Carroll Schoolwork should teach kids skills and develop their brains. While technology can be a useful tool, kids need to be able to do basic tasks independently. This is why kids learn how to calculate, even though calculators have existed for a long time. And that’s also the reason why schools teach handwriting and spelling, when most adults write using computers. Kids’ brains need to be exercised to develop, just like their bodies. AI may benefit adults, but it is harmful to children if they use AI before thinking for themselves. Alexa Teaching kids how to use AI can prepare them for our technology-filled future. According to a survey, most Americans think it’s necessary for students to learn AI-related skills for their future careers. Using AI can help build the critical thinking (批判性思维) and problem-solving skills kids will need. I believe that as long as it’s done well, learning with AI will change society for the better. 41．What topic is this article discussing? 42．Which of the three students is against using AI to do homework? 43．Dylan Patel is afraid that chatbots can be used as a cheating tool, isn’t he? 44．According to Harper Carroll, why should kids learn how to calculate and write? 45．List three benefits of teaching kids how to use AI mentioned by Alexa. 46．What’s your opinion on this topic? Give your reason(s). 七、书面表达(共19分) 47．Your school did a survey to find out how much water is used for each activity in a typical household.
