Ben B Edward walked slowly past the school field where his elder brother,Leon,was playing basketball.Edward didn't ask if he could join,because the last time he played, Leon's friends laughed at his poor skills and didn't want him to play again. c“Soy,man,”Leon tried to be kind.“Everyone has a talent for something,.”he told Edward."Basketball just isn't your thing,like math isn't mine."Edward was always good at math and could solve many difficult problems. A few days later,Leon's math teacher told him he was going to fail the class if he could not get a good grade in the next test.Leon wished that he had his brother's math skills,so he asked Edward for help. Looking down at his book,Edward said,"I really hope to get better at basketball.I'll help you with math,and maybe we can practice basketball together,too." Leon knew how hopeless Edward was at basketball.But then again,he felt the same way about math. "Let's give it a shot,"Leon said. The boys agreed that over the next two weeks,they would do math for an hour each day after school and then play basketball for another hour. 共6页 2026-2027学年第一学期八年级英语期中练习(2026.11)班级 A few days later,Leon got his test back."We did it!"he shouted as he ran into the house after school."I got an A.I'm going to pass this class.And it's all because of you," he said,giving his brother a hug.

C Lightning usually destroys (the trees it hits.But scientists have found an amazing tree.It not only lives through lightning strikes (but actually grows better because of them! For years,scientists thought lightning was only bad for trees.But as they explored places like the Amazon rainforest,they started to think there could be trees that fight against lightning.It wasn't until about 100 years ago that such "super trees"were discovered.Now,they know of a tree that uses lightning's power to kill nearby trees and get more sunlight and nutrients for itself. In 2015,scientist Evan Gora saw a Dipteryx oleifera tree,which had been struck by strong lightning.It wasn't badly harmed while the neighboring trees were killed. Scientists thought this tree could handle lightning,but there was no way to be sure. Gora and his team saw more of these trees that grew well after lightning strikes.So, they did a study.They followed 93 trees struck by lightning for 2-6 years.They found that all 9 Dipteryx oleifera trees in the study survived with little harm.But 84 other trees were badly hurt,and 64%of them died within two years. These trees are very tall and have wide tops,making them 68%more likely to be 八年级英语第4页 姓名 成绩 struck by lightning than other trees.During the study,one of the Dipteryx trees was struck twice in 5 years yet continued to grow well. At present,more studies suggest that these trees attract ()lightning on purpose to kill other trees and grow better.Scientists are not sure how these trees survive lightning, but they guess it may involve the trees'ability to cary electricity.They are also interested in other trees with similar characteristics. 40.What is special about the Dipteryx oleifera tree? A.It dies quickly after being struck by lightning. B.It takes in nutrients directly from lightning. C.It avoids lightning by hiding under other trees. D.It grows better after lightning strikes. 41.What does the underlined word "handle"in Paragraph 3 mean? A.Deal with.B.Give out. C.Suffer from.D.Mix up 42.Why do Dipteryx oleifera trees attract lightning according to some studies? A.To get more water firom the sky.B.To kill nearby trees for growth. C.To become shorter and stronger. D.To protect other trees around them D Is Technology Changing the Way Kids Develop Relationships? Technology is changing what"friendship"means.For example,with technology, people who have never met and will never meet can call each other friends.It makes the line between connections and real friends become unclear. Technology is everywhere in most children's life.It is changing how kids know and build friendships.However,we do not always think carefully about its influence.As technology affects kids more and more,children need to know where they learn about fiiendship.They also need to think whether these ideas are healthy and can help them build good relationships in the future. We need to see these changes clearly,because friendships are very important for kids'growth and life.Friendships bring kids values,love,safety and help.The early friendships of children set an example for their later relationships.Later relationships with classmates,teachers and other important people shape kids'ideas about the world and their future.In fact,there is no aspect()of children's lives that remains untouched by relationships. At the same time,many of the changes in relationships caused by technology have been positive.Technology has also been a good thing to keep already-established ( relationships.If you have family or friends who live at a great distance,they no longer have to depend on the telephone or snail mail to stay connected.They can contact through 共6页 2026-2027学年第一学期八年级英语期中练习(2026.11)班级 email,texting and so on. Like many new inventions,technology has both advantages and disadvantages.It can be used well,but it can also be used in wrong ways.I wory about how kids understand friendship and how technology changes their ideas.For example,I hear many young people talking about all of the "friends"they have made on the web.The Internet helps people connect more easily than before.But just talking online does not mean you have a real friendship 43.The line between connections and real friends has become unclear because A.technology brings new change B.it's difficult to find real friends C.it's wise to connect with strangers D.technology gives kids more free time 44.What do you know about children's relationships from the passage? A.Relationships are easy to develop for children. B.Children can understand relationships correctly. C.Relationships connect with every part of children's lives. D.Children's later relationships are more important than their early ones 45.The writer probably agrees that A.children can't make friends on the web B.technology is changing children's lives C.technology can't cause positive influence D.children dislike the growing influence of technology 46.What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage? A.To list the changes in relationships caused by technology. B.To introduce a new type of relationships in kids'daily life. C.To tell the kids to develop their relationships with the help of the technology. D.To remind the kids of thinking about the influence of technology on their relationships. 八、阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。（共10分，第47-49小题每小题2分， 第50小题4分) Indian-origin Anvitha vijay has given a new meaning to the phrase "age is just a number".She has shown that achievements and knowledge come from passion,not just age and experience.
