B When was the last time you used paper money?For many of us,mobile payment is now the first choice,and paper money seems to be going away.But Chinese paper money,known as CNY notes,is much more than money.It is a little window into Chinese culture. China is one of the first countries to use paper money.During the Song Dynasty,people used Jiaozi,the earliest paper money in history.At first,it was just a picce of paper with simple words. Because it was easy to copy,some bad people tried to forge it to get money in a wrong way.To solve this problem,the government designed (very detailed pictures of dragons and phoenixes on it. They helped protect the money's value.Later paper money also got ideas from this kind of design. Take the old 10 note as an example.Its phoenix design is similar to the one on lacquerware )And its fine lines come from traditional ancient art. A The orchid on the y1 note stands for elegance and a noble character.The lotus on the 420 note is a symbol of purity,as it grows out of mud but stays clean.The chrysanthemum on the 50 note is known as the"hermit flower",a symbol of living a quiet life.Tao Yuanming,a famous poet, wrote the line "Picking chrysanthemums by the eastern fence".Another example is the plum blossom on the 100 note.It blooms in cold winter when other flowers are gone,and stands for strength,hope and courage. Paper money is a beautiful mix of art and history.Let's enjoy these small details and be proud of our traditional culture,no matter how fast the digital world develops. 53.What is Jiaozi according to the passage? A.A delicious Chinese food. B.The lacquerware with a phoenix design. C.The earliest paper money.

I was a shy girl and felt nervous.I didn't want to be on TV.But I knew fighting against Dad was useless.So I practiced the casy piece of music every day.When my piano leacher said I was ready,I wrote a letter to the TV station to join the show. When the show time came,a host of the show welcomed me warmly,and the music teacher nodded to me.I took a deep breath and started playing.Everything went well at first.Suddenly,I found the piano was like a stranger and my brain didn't work-I missed a long part of the music!I tried to go back quickly,but I couldn't.Finally,I just played the ending and stopped. After me,three sisters sang and danced together,and they won the first prize.On my way home, I felt more relaxed than unhappy.I knew I didn't play perfectly,but I finished it. The next day at school,I expected that my classmates would laugh at my show.But Chad,a boy who was often laughed at by other kids,walked up to me."I saw you on TV.You did really well,"he said in a low but clear voice just like a warm wind touching my sad heart.I suddenly understood that I got more than a small gift from this experience. -Adapted from Talent Sprouts by Rosemary Laughlin 57.What does the underlined word "It"refer to? A.Playing the piano. B.Watching Talent Sprouts. C.Joining in the show. D.Talking with a piano teacher. 58.Why did the writer join Talent Sprouts finally?

D 1Were you so hungry that you could not focus on anything else?Actually, hunger affects more than just our focus.It also affects human memory.For example,we may not know how long we are hungry.However,scientists find that tiny fruit flies can remember how long they are hungry.And this special memory greatly changes how they make choices in their daily life. the fruit fly 2In a new study,scientists carefully studied fruit flies'brains.They let some flies go without food for six hours,and the others for twenty-four hours.Later,they gave the flies a simple choice:sugar or something else.The result was surprising.Flies hungry for six hours acted quite differently from those hungry for twenty-four hours.The flies without eating anything for a full day showed more willingness(愿意)to take risks(冒险)to get the sweet sugar.. 3Why does this happen?Scientists think the flies'brains put a"time stamp"on their memory of hunger.It doesn't just tell the flies"I am hungry".It sends a clearer message:"I am hungry.And this feeling lasts for a long time."With this useful message,the flies can decide if the sugar is worth the possible danger around them. 4This finding is also important for people,especially those with eating problems,such as binge eating ()Their brains keep on telling them they have been hungry for a very long time,so they cannot stop thinking about food all day long.Scientists think our brains can also use this same"time stamp".If we learn how hunger memories are kept inside our brains,we may find new ways to help these people. (5)Fruit flies are simple living things.Their brains have only a small number of nerve cells,while human brains have billions of them.But they help scientists learn a big and meaningful idea. Sometimes the smallest animals around us can help us to solve problems in life. 61.Why does the writer start the passage with a question? A.To give the meaning of feeling hungry. B.To introduce the subject of the passage. C.To compare humans'brains with fruit flies'. D.To show the writer's ideas about fruit flies. 初2028居八上期中英语试题，第7页，共12页 62.Which picture shows the result of the study in paragraph(2?

This is not just a simple idea.Dweck did a study with two groups of students.She praised one group for being"smart"and the other group for"working hard".Then,she asked them to take hard tests for several times.The"smart"group gave up easily and their grades dropped.The"hard-working" group kept trying and their grades improved by 30%. That's why Dweck called this a growth mindset.People with this mindset believe that they can improve their abilities by working hard,and they see difficulties as chances to help them grow. However,not everyone thinks this way.People with a fixed mindset(個定型思维)un away from difficulties more easily.In their minds,if they are not good at something,they'll never be good at it. Also,they choose to use people who are worse than them as a mirror.Then they feel good about themselves. But how can you become a person with a growth mindset step by step?First,you should know final grades don't decide everything.As long as you work hard during the process(),you already become better.Also,try to change the voice in your head.When you think"I can't do this,"add the word "yet".No one can make progress at once. So.don't be afraid of difficulties.They are not here to show you are not good enough,but to give you the chance to grow.The way you see them matters a lot. Different mindsets affect how you face difficulties.Dweck's study shows being praised for working hard makes people try harder and95.This is the power of a growth mindset. However,when facing difficulties,people with a fixed mindset usually run away and 96 Instead of only 97 the results,you should know the process is more important.Also, progress takes time.In a word,98.Then you don't need to be afraid of difficulties any more. 初2028届八上期中英语试题，第11页，共12页 XΠ.书面表达。（共15分） 古人云：读万卷书，行万里路。旅行能让我们走出熟悉的环境，感受不同风土人情，放松 身心。出行规划时，大家一般有两种选择：自主安排行程的自由行，或是省心稳妥的跟团游。 某班就出行方式对同学们开展问卷调查，下图为调查结果。请你描述图表信息，谈谈你的看法， 并说明理由。 提示词： Self-guided tour √make your own plans Students'Favourite Ways of Travelling √change your routes(路线)freely pick your favourite places to visit Group tour have more time to relax … Group tour √save much trouble learn a lot from the tour guide √ get cheaper tickets(门票) Self-guided tour make friends with other tourists 要求： 1.80-100词，开头已给出，不计入总词数： 2文中不能出现自己的姓名和所在学校的名称。 Which is better,a group tour or a self-guided tour?
