答案写在答题纸上。

The koala（考拉熊）is an important symbol of Australia.The koala lives in open eucalyptus （棱树）forests in south-east Queensland.It is called koala bear,but this animal has nothing to do with the bear. Koalas have thick fur and large ears.Their flat nose makes them look cute. In fact,koalas aren't cute.They have sharp teeth and very sharp claws(爪)!The koala mother caries her baby in a pocket while it grows up in the same way as a kangaroo(袋鼠）does.The baby kola grows in its mother's pocket for the first six months of its life. The name"koala"comes from an Australian word that means"no drink".The koala gets almost all their water and food from the eucalyptus leaves.They eat only eucalyptus leaves. Koalas sleep about nineteen hours a day!Why do they sleep so much? Some people think it's because they're lazy.But koalas aren't lazy.They sleep so much because there isn't much energy in eucalyptus leaves.Koalas don't have much fat,so they must save their energy.One way to do this is to move slowly and sleep alot .After a day of sleeping, they like to move around and eat just after sunset.They live alone most of the time.Koalas protects their trees.If a koala sees another koala eating in its favourite tree, it might tell the other koala to leave by"barking(叫)"at it.Koalas do“talk"to each other. As well as barks, the males(雄性）make a deep grunting(呼噜的)sound.The mothers and babies talk in soft clicking sounds.If they are afraid,they may cry like a baby.The koala is also an excellent swimmer.They are able to cross wide and deep rivers.答案：江苏省无锡市钱桥中学2020-2021学年八年级12月质量监控测试英语试题八、任务型阅读 阅读下面的短文，根据短文内容完成表格中所缺信息，在答题卷上相应的横线上填写答案，每空限填一词。

The other cubs had red in their hair. He was gray like his father. He was the strongest cub. He showed more anger than his brothers and sisters. He made more noises.He was a carnivorous animal. He came of a breed of meat-killers and meat-eaters. His father and mother lived wholly upon meat. In his first months of life, he lived on mother’s milk, which was transformed directly from meat. And now, at a month old, when his eyes had been open for about a week, he was beginning himself to eat meat.There came a time when there was no meat. For many days the cubs did not eat. They were too weak and tired to play. One-Eye, the cub’s father, was killed in the fight over food. Even the she-wolf left the cave to find meat, but there was nothing. One by one, the cubs died. Only the she-wolf and the gray cub were left.One day, the gray cub ran out of the cave to hunt for his own food. He met a weasel (黄鼠狼) ofhis size. The rat-like animal ran at him and bit his throat. He was nearly dead when the she-wolf arrived just in time to kill and eat it.The gray cub was not good at hunting yet, and still needed food from his mother. One day, the she-wolf brought him a lynx (猞猁) kitten. While eating, he heard great noise. The kitten’s mother had followed the she-wolf here. The she-wolf and the she-lynx started to fight, and they would fight to the death. The bite was enough to give the she-wolf the chance she needed. The lynx was dead, but the she-wolf was badly hurt. For a week, she did not move. The gray cub had to find food for both of them.Without his mother to take care of him, he learnt what life was about. Without meat there was no life. Animals had to eat other animals to survive. The law was: EAT OR BE EATEN.(—Taken from White Fang)34. Which sentence should go in the empty box in Paragraph 5?A. Wolves live only on meat.B. Soon he was losing a lot of blood.C. He ran forward and bit one of her legs.D. He could not stop the lynx from biting him.35. What is the correct order of what happened to the gray cub in the story?①He was left after many days’ hunger.②He lived on mother’s milk in his first months.③He had to find food for his mother and himself.④He met a weasel of his size and was nearly dead.A．②①④③B．④③②①C．④②③①D．②④①③36. After reading the passage, we can infer that ________.A. The cub’s brothers and sisters died of hungerB. One-Eye, the father died from a fight for meatC. Life was easy for the she-wolf and the gray cubD. The she-wolf came in time to kill and eat the weaselcar. Do not go into a shedEven after you are indoors, be careful. It is not smart to go near doors and windows. They can blow in or break. A room with no windows is the safest place to be. Do not wash your hands during a storm. Do not use anything that runs on electricity, either. Water and electrical lines are like roads for五、词汇运用（每小题1分，共10分）根据句子意思，用括号中所给汉语提示或英语单词的适当形式填空。

They believe the h arder their children study, the happier life they will have in the future. Is it true? Lulu and her sister Sophia may have a say.Lulu and Sophia have a "tiger mother". She pushed them a lot when they were young. For example, they were not allowed to get grades lower than A. They had to practice the piano or violin for several hours a day. There were no games or TV.The tiger mother, Amy, is a Chinese-American professor at Yale Law School in the USA. Several years ago, she wrote a book named Battle Hymn of th e Tiger Mother and shared her strict parenting style in it.Many people don't like Amy's style of parenting. They once worried that her daughters would not be happy. However, the two girls have grown up and they are thankful to their mother.Sophia has just graduated from Yale University. She is hard-working, friendly and helpful. Not long ago, she shared some useful studying tips online. L ulu is also a warm, smart and popular girl in her friends' eyes. She said tiger mothers believed that a child could succeed by being pushed to go all out.Still, not everyone agrees with the tiger mother's parenting style. In fact, there isn't a parenting style that fits everyone. What's the best parenting style f or you?

Have you ever heard the phrase “You never get a second chance to make a first impression (印象)?” It may sound like an unusual piece of advice, but it is true --- the first impression someone has of you when meeting you for the first time will probably influence how that person treats you or reacts to y ou in the future.What is even more interesting is that the brain takes in all the information to create that first impression in about three seconds. When you meet someon e for the first time, by the time you have stated you name or shaken hands, the other person has already formed an opinion about the kind of person you are.So how do you make a good first impression? All things grown-ups tell you --- such as being polite, and being well-dressed --- are very important. Ho wever, the most important tool for making a good first impression is your face. Smiling, being responsive, and looking like you are happy will almost alway s leave a positive ( 积极的) impression on people, especially those who do not know you. Most people, generally speaking, are ready to smile back when th ey are smiled at.Furthermore, smiling and being in a positive mood helps you to know and get a better understanding of new things. This means that you can possibly b e friendlier to people you do not know and be more creative and able to solve problems more quickly. So if you ever need a reason to be happy, think about t he wonderful people you might meet --- and impress --- with a cheerful smile.【小题1】What does the underlined word “react” in Paragraph 1 probably mean in Chinese?A．回应B．道歉C．报告D．建议【小题2】Which paragraph shows how soon others form opinions on you?A．Paragraph 1.B．Paragraph 2.C．Paragraph 3.D．Paragraph 4.【小题3】What is the most important to leave good impressions?A．Shaking hands.B．Stating your name.C．Dressing nicely.D．Wearing a smile.【小题4】What can be learned from the last paragraph?A．Friendliness helps solve problems.B．Being positive helps you find a way out.C．There are many reasons to be happy.D．Thinking of great people cheers you up.【小题5】What would be the best title for the text?A．The First Impression Does CountB．Smiling Makes the First ImpressionC．Manners Leave Deep ImpressionsD．Impressions Decide Who You Are四、用所给单词的正确形式填空21. 根据句子意思.用括号中所给汉语提示或英语单词的适当形式填空。

The United Nations（联合国）set this date as World Food Day in 1979. They wanted to tell people to value（珍惜）food and care more about hunger problems.Right now, there are over 1 billion（十亿）hungry people in the world. Many children go to sleep hungry, and 15 million of them die from hunger each year.There are many reasons for this problem. A foreign reporter wrote a book called Hunger. He said that we're making too much food—not too little. There is enough food for 10 billion people. So why do some people still not have enough food?The first reason is food waste（浪费）. About 1300000 million kilos of food goes to waste each year. That is more than one-third of all the world's food. Second, we're not the only ones who eat food. Around 80 percent of all soybeans in the world go to farm animals. Insome places, people are still hungry because they don't have enough farmland（农田）.So think twice next time you want to throw away（扔掉）food. If everyone saves food, we will be able to help many hungry children. When you eat out, if you can't eat all the food, take it home. Some food may not taste great, but your body needs it. Look at what food you have at home before buying more. Don't buy too much. Don't cook too much.When you throw away food, you are not just wasting the food itself. You are also wasting resources（资源）. So let's start saving food to stop hunger now.（1）World Food Day is on ________.A.October 16B.October 6C.October 16, 1979D.October 6, 1979（2）How many children die from hunger each year?A.1 billion.B.1,300,000 million.C.15 billion.D.15 million.（3）The United Nations set World Food Day to tell people ________.A.we have enough foodB.to value food and care more about hunger problemsC.to stop eating outD.why people don't have enough food（4）Which is NOT the way of saving food?A.If you can't eat all the food outside, take it home.B.Don't cook too much food at home.C.Throw away the food you don't like.D.We can help hungry people by saving food.（5）What can be the best title of this article?A.Hungry peopleB.Let's stop hungerC.What is hunger?D.Why are peopel wasting food?Once there were three friends in a small village.

Let's go home and share these gold coins," said another man. Just then, thethird man said, " We ate nothing this morning. You stay here and I will go to get some food." The other two were hungry too, so they said OK.The third man went to the nearest village to buy food and the other two waited for him in the forest.
