he【考点】IC：省略句．【分析】﹣﹣我不喜欢抽烟．﹣﹣我也不喜欢．【解答】答案：D．本题所考查的知识点是对固定句式的理解．"So+助动词/情态动词/be+主语"这一结构主要用来说明前者所说的情况也适应后者，意为"…也一样"根据题干，在这个结构中的助动词要根据前者的情况保持一致；其否定结构构成是"Nor/Neither+助动词/情态动词/be+主语"，"表示…也不"；对于助动词、情态动词和be动词的用法，应根据前句使用的词加以选择，与前句的词保持一致．根据前句的don't 这里是否定形式，所以后面应该用肯定形式，人称是he，所以这里应用does；再根据题干"我不喜欢抽烟"可知，答语应是"他也不喜欢"，应用neither；故选D．3．Mary's uncle made ______ possible for her ________around the world（）A．this，travelling B．this，to travelC．it，travelling D．it，to travel【考点】6E：形式宾语．【分析】玛丽的叔叔让她周游世界成为可能．【解答】答案：D．this意思是"这个"it意思是"它"经常用来作形式主语或形式宾语，现在分词表示动作正在进行，动词不定式表示未发生的动作．根据"Mary's uncle made ______ possible for her ________around the world"结合给出的选项，因此可知这句话的意思是"玛丽的叔叔让她周游世界成为可能．"周游世界只是一种可能，还没有付诸实施，所以要用it来作形式宾语，来代替后面的不定式短语，综上所述，故选D．4．I wonder they are getting on．（）A．what B．when C．that D．how【考点】C3：连词辨析．【分析】我想知道他们相处的怎么样．【解答】答案：D．首先结合语境推测句意是"我想知道他们相处的怎么样．"，设空处是一个宾语从句，结合句意判断用疑问词how，故选D5．﹣Hi，Li Ming．Why are you in such a hurry？﹣________________ the 7：30train．（）A．Catch B．To catch

D．until【考点】7B：常用介词的辨析．【分析】昨天晚上直到十一点他才去睡觉．【解答】答案：D．联系语境并根据前后句子的对比，可知句意是：昨天晚上直到十一点他才去睡觉．；由于主句中的谓语动词是非延续性的动词，根据句意结合关键词didn't，可以判断出此句应用固定表达not…until来完成，意为"直到…才…"引导一个时间状语从句．故选D10．﹣﹣I didn't watch the soccer game．How about you？﹣﹣﹣Me ．（）A．so B．instead C．neither D．too【考点】9B：副词的词义辨析．【分析】﹣我没看这场足球赛．你呢？﹣我也没看．【解答】答案：Cso因此；instead反而；代替；neither两个都不；too也（用于肯定句的末尾）；根据关键句I didn't watch the soccer

D．much，runners【考点】51：定冠词（the）．【分析】姚明是中国最受欢迎的运动员之一．【解答】答案：B．第一个空格后面的词语most popular，是最高级，所以第一个空要用定冠词the，又根据one of，意思是"…之一"所以后面要用复数名词，所以这个句子的意思是"姚明是中国最受欢迎的运动员之一．"综上所述，故选B．12．﹣Did you know China is one of

yet．（）A．happens B．will happen C．happened D．has happened【考点】F5：现在完成时．【分析】翻译：一小时前我开始观察这里，但是现在任何事还没有发生．【解答】答案：D．因为句中有yet，所以该用现在完成时，现在完成时构成为：主语+have/has+动词的过去现在分词+其他成分，句中的主语是nothing，nothing 是不定代词，该用has，故该用has happened，故选D．14．Hello，may I speak to Mr．Smith？Sorry，he isn't in．He ______the office．（）A．has been to B．has gone toC．has been away【考点】F5：现在完成时．【分析】﹣喂，史密斯先生在吗？﹣对不起，他不在家，他去办公室了．【解答】答案：B．根据关键词Sorry，he isn't in．可知是他去了办公室，have been to，去过某地，已回到说话地点；have gone to，去了某地，不在说话地点；主语是单三形式，have的第三单数形式为has，故选B．15．It's sometimes hard to tell one twin from ______．（）A．another B．some other C．other D．the other【考点】65：不定代词．【分析】有时候很难区别双胞胎中的这个和那个？【解答】答案：D．another意思是"又一再一"；other意思是"别的，其他的"some other意思是"另外的；一些其他的"the other意思是"特指两者中的另一个"根据twin，意思是"双胞胎"双胞胎一般是两个，所以这个句子的意思是"有时候很难区别双胞胎中的这个和那个？"综上所述，故选D．16．Her son ____ Coke，but now he _____ milk．（）A．used to drink，is used to drinkingB．used to drinking，drinksC．is used to

sth过去常常做某事，在这里头后面跟动词原形；be used to doing sth 习惯于做某事，在这里to是介词，后面跟动名词．故选A．17．His grade in the exam put him _____ the top students in his class．（）A．between B．over C．among D．above【考点】7B：常用介词的辨析．【分析】他在这次考试中的分数让他处在了班里最优秀的学生中．【解答】答案：C between"在…之间（两者）"；over"超过，在…上方"；among"在…之间（三者或以上）"；above"在…上面"．本题没有指明最优秀的学生的数量，但根据常识可知这个数量正好是两个的情况较少，一般都会多于两个，所以选among比较合适．故选C．18．Can you imagine how long the man ________ the photo album？（）A．has had B．has bought C．will keep D．bought【考点】F6：时态辨析．【分析】你能想象这个男人买这个相册多久了吗？【解答】答案：A．how long引导的是宾语从句，主句是一般现在时，从句时态不受限制，结合句意表达的动作发生在过去，对现在造成一定的影响，故用现在完成时have/has+过去分词，主语the man，故has，buy是短暂性动词，不能与how long连用，故换成have，故选A．19．We are having a yard _______，but it's hard _____ it．（）A．sell，sell

As we all know, students in primary and middle schoolin China have at least one labor (劳动) class a week. They will try different kinds of labor and learn different life skills.Kids from a school in Chongqing had a class about catching coaches (泥鳅) in the field and learned about their habits. Kids in Fenyi, Jiangxi, made tofu with a millstone (磨盘). They also tasted tofu made by themselves. Some kids in Ziyang, Sichuan, also grew vegetables at school, like carrots and potatoes. They learned how these vegetables were planted, how to take care of them and how to cook them.Labor education can help people to be active, creative and happy in life. Through such classes, students can learn the meaning of labor and its value (价值).15.

In fact, they are so popular that people regard them as part of ancient Chinese history andculture. What do these Chinese titles refer to? Have you ever wondered what the stories behind these ideas are?Modesty and respectChinese people in the past or even sometimes today call their sons quanzi (犬子). They believe that dogs are humble (卑微的) animals. When Chinese parents use quanzi to refer to their sons, they are being modest. Although most parents do want them to be successful, they don’t usually talk about this in front of others. Instead, they try to play it down. This is similar to how even rich Chinese people call their big houses hanshe (寒舍), which means “my humble home”.Although people are modest about themselves, they respect others a lot. They call their own sons quanzi, but call others’sons linglang (令郎), a respectful way to say “your son”.Trees of characterIn Chinese, kaimo (楷模) means “role model”. Both of these Chinese characters have a “木”on their left side. People believe that kai and mo might are two kinds of trees in ancient China. It was said that there were many kai trees growing near Confucius’ tomb (孔子墓). These trees were so straight that they made people think of Confucius’ character—straight and honest. People believed that the mo trees grew near the tomb of the Duke of Zhou (周公). The color of the mo tree’s leaves made the tree a symbol of integrity.Since the kai and mo trees grew near the tombs of two respected people, kaimo was then used to refer to role models.19. If Xiaoli needs to introduce his own son to others in a modest way, he may use the title “________”.A．quanzi B．taoli C．hanshe D．linglang20. Which of the following about “kaimo” is NOT true?A．It refers to the role models.B．It’s from the trees called kai and mo.C．We can use it to describe Confucius.D．We see it as a symbol of modesty.21. The underlined word “integrity” probably means “________”.A．being modest and humble B．being successful and respectfulC．being straight and honest D．being pure and smart22. You can infer from the passage that ________.A．titles like “taoli” are part of Chinese traditional cultureB．trees are always a symbol of integrityC．showing modesty and respect is important in ancient ChinaD．people planted kai trees to remember the Duke of Zhou(★★★)Can you imagine an AI chatbot (聊天机器人) competing with you in an examination? Do you think you could get higher scores than it? A new AI chatbot called ChatGPT recently passed a law (法律) school exam! Sounds crazy? The use of ChatGPT has raised heated discussions in the education world.ChatGPT was developed by US company Open AI. It is a powerful tool. You can ask it to write stories and emails, translate languages, and answer all kinds of questions. According to a US survey of more than 1000 students, over 89 percent of them have used ChatGPT to help with homework. Some schools in the US do not allow students to use it. For example, New York City public schools don’t allow students and teachers to use ChatGPT on the district’s networks (地区网络) and devices (设备).The measure (措施) comes out of worries that the tool could make it easier for students to cheat on homework. Some also worry that ChatGPT could be used to spread (传播) incorrect (不正确的) information.“It does not develop thinking quality (能力) and problem-solving skills, these are necessary for studying and lifelong success,” said Jenna Lyle, the deputy press secretary of the New York City Department of Education. Apart from bans (禁令), teachers are making changes to their classes to prevent the use of ChatGPT. Some college teachers in the US try to include more speaking exams and handwritten papers instead of typed ones.However, not all educators say “no” to ChatGPT. Some Canadian universities are making rules on its use, for both students and teachers. They have no plans to completely ban the tool so far. Some people said that bans on AI software like.ChatGPT are not wise. “We have to know that AI is a tool people will use,” What we need to dois“change our learning, teaching and examinations”. In that way, we can “have good faith (诚信) while recognizing the use of the tool”.23. How does the writer start the passage?A．By giving some facts.B．By showing some opinions.C．By telling some stories.D．By asking some questions.24. What does Jenna Lyle think of ChatGPT?A．ChatGPT is the smartest AI chabot tool so far.B．ChatGPT is used to spread the wrong information.C．ChatGPT is not good for developing students’ minds.D．ChatGPT is necessary for studying and lifelong success.25. Which opinion is NOT mentioned in the passage?A．The complete ban on using ChatGPT is not wise.B．ChatGPT will completely change the education.C．Using ChatGPT makes students lazy in thinking.D．Using ChatGPT will change the way of teaching.26. What’s the structure of the passage?（①=paragraph 1 ②=paragraph 2,…）A．B．C．D．(★★★)阅读短文，从下面所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有一个多余的选项。

江苏省苏州市吴江区2023-2024学年八年级下学期期末英语试题一、完形填空My husband built a small house for our Little Free Library. It looked like our own home.I 1 some books carefully to put in it. We liked the idea because we didn’t have to get books into the car to sell them. 2 , we could make more people enjoy them.Since 5 years ago, thousands of books, CDs and even board games have been 3 . Our library is on a busy street, just a few 4 from a bus station. Many people walk past it every day. People who use our library often show their love for it. One man always stops by to get books for the nearby elderly’s home. In return, we sometimes get cards and gifts, 5 chocolates and even a special drawing from an artist.A lot of books are lent or given to others, but we now have even more books than ever before. Like the people using our library, the books in our library show how diverse (多元化的) our city is. We have books in English and French, besides Chinese books. I’ve even collected many books in different 6 I don’t understand, just for the joy of adding 7 special to our collection.Some people think Little Free Library might not be 8 to the development of the community and could compete (竞争) with public libraries and bookshops. But our love of reading grows because of Little Free Library, and it has helped build a 9 between book lovers in our busy neighborhood. That’s what our library is for. It goes further from we expected. And my husband and I feel 10 good.1．A．received B．picked C．returned D．translated 2．A．However B．Otherwise C．Moreover D．Instead 3．A．shared B．printed C．refused D．lifted 4．A．schools B．towns C．blocks D．cities5．A．without B．by C．except D．including 6．A．countries B．languages C．ways D．grades 7．A．anything B．nothing C．something D．everything 8．A．careful B．colourful C．helpful D．harmful 9．A．tent B．bridge C．house D．step 10．A．amazingly B．wisely C．suddenly D．recently二、阅读理解Imagine (想象) you are sitting in an airplane, please look down at your school. What would it look like? A map shows the view of an area from above. We use maps to find out where places are, or how far it is between places. Maps also help us to find the way. This is because they tell us which direction to take to reach a place.Map scales (比例)When people draw maps, they draw them much smaller than the area of land or sea the maps show. Maps are nearly always drawn to scale. Different scales are used to draw different types of map.A large-scale map shows a small area in a lot of detail. It is the kind of map you might use if you are out walking. A small-scale map shows a large area in less detail. Who would use this type of map?Map symbols(标志)The things that maps show are shown by symbols. Some symbols are tiny pictures. Others are letters, such as “B” for bridge or “P” for car park. Most maps have a key to tell you what these different symbols mean. There are no rules about what colours are used on maps, but map-makers use the same colours for the same things. Water is usually blue, for example, and forests are green. 11．Why does the writer ask readers to imagine in paragraph 1?A．Provide facts.B．Show opinions.C．Draw a conclusion.D．Introduce the topic. 12．Which of Amy’s ideas is proper after she reads this passage?A．If Amy wants to go to her friend’s house, she can use a small-scale map.B．When Amy sees a big “L” on a map, she knows it may show a lighthouse.C．Amy draws a map for Suzhou, and she uses l cm for 30 km on the ground.D．Amy finds two maps use two colors for fields, and she believes it’s a mistake. 13．Which book may the passage be taken from?A．Fun Animal World B．Amazing GeographyC．To English Learners D．Know More about MathThere was once a beautiful girl who lived in a small village. Her father was a shoemaker. One day, a foreign army came to the village. A soldier (士兵) got to know the girl, fell in love with her and they got married.There was once a small boy who lived with his 12 brothers and sisters on a farm. They were so poor that they couldn’t afford to go to school. The children had to work to support their family. One day, a famous teacher came to visit. He noticed that one boy was very smart. He took him to the city and helped him get better education. Later, the boy became a leader of the army(军队领袖).The girl and the boy are my great grandparents. I know a lot about them because I love genealogy, the study of families and their history. Genealogists use documents (文献), photos and people’s memories to explain and understand the story of a person’s life.Genealogy has become so popular that a TV channel started a documentary (纪录片) series called “ ________ ”. In this series, famous people (actors, football players and others) find out more about their family history and they often have very big surprises.14．Who did the girl get married to?A．A farmer.B．A teacher.C．A shoemaker.D．A soldier. 15．Which of the following pictures shows genealogy?A．B．C．D．16．What can be put in the “ ________ ” as the name of the documentary series?A．Who do you think you are?B．When do you think you were born?C．What job do you think fits you?D．How do you think we study history? 17．How is the text organized? (①=Paragraph 1; ①=Paragraph 2…)A．B．C．D．IS SUCCESS ABOUT LEARNING—OR SHOWING YOU’RE SMART?Benjamin once said, “I don’t divide (分) the world into the weak and the strong, or the successes and the failures. I divide the world into the learners and nonlearners.”What would make someone a nonlearner? Everyone is born with an intense drive (驱动力) to learn. Babies practise their skills daily, even the most difficult tasks of a lifetime, like learning to walk and talk. They never think it’s too hard. Babies don’t worry about making mistakes. They walk, they fall and they get up. They just move forward.What could put an end to this kind of learning? The fixed mindset (固定的思维模式). As soon as children become able to evaluate(评价) themselves, some of them become afraid of hard tasks. They become afraid of not being smart. I have studied thousands of students, and you can’t believe how many people refuse a chance to learn.We offered four-year-olds a choice (选择): They could red o an easy task or they could try a harder one. Even at this age, children with the fixed mindset—stuck with the safe one. Children with the growth mindset—the ones who believed you could get smarter by learning—thought it was a strange choice. Why are you asking me this? Why would anyone want to keep doing the same task over and over? They chose one hard one after another. “I’m dying to solve them!” one little girl said.So children with the fixed mindset want to make sure they are successful. Smart people should always be successful. But for children with the growth mindset, success is about practising themselves. It’s about learning to become smarter.One seventh-grade girl made a conclusion.“I think being smart is something you have to work for…it isn’t just given to you… Most kids, if they’re not sure of an answer, will not raise their hand to answer the question. But what I usually do is to raise my hand, because if I’m wrong, then my mistake will be corrected. Just by doing that I’m improving my ability.”18．What does the writer want to tell by using the example of babies in Paragraph 2?A．Walking and talking are very difficult.B．It’s easy for babies to learn different skills.C．People are born with abilities to learn.D．Babies need to face many tasks every day. 19．Which of the following is a fixed mindset according to the passage?A．Being happy with his own growth.B．Working hard and being thirsty to learn.C．Avoiding showing how smart he is.D．Being afraid of facing different failures. 20．What does the girl mean by saying “I’m dying to solve them!”?A．She can’t wait to give herself a task to practise.B．She thinks a healthy body can help learn better.C．She believes it’s painful to solve the problems.D．She doesn’t find it difficult to finish these tasks.21．What’s the main purpose of the passage?A．Be a good learner in babyhood.B．Stay active when facing difficulties.C．Show the importance of success.D．Make decisions and choices carefully.Though Sylvia had grown up among tall buildings and busy streets, she had recently found herself more at home in the Maine countryside, where she had come to help her aging grandmother. She let the cow out to walk in the nearby fields every morning and led it back home in the evenings, staying with the woods and her animal neighbours every day.One evening, when Sylvia walked back home from the fields, she saw a stranger coming out of the forest. When the man reached her, he explained that he was quite interested in collecting rare birds and was searching for the white heron (苍鹭) nested (筑巢) in the area according to his book. He asked if he could stay at her house. Though Sylvia was a little bit worried, she led him to her grandmother.Over dinner, Sylvia’s grandmother told the man how her son had loved making friends with animals while he enjoyed living in the wild and that Sylvia was just the same. On hearing the news, the man offered Sylvia a lot of money to help him find the white heron, telling that he planned to shoot (打猎) and put it into his collection. Sylvia knew her grandmother had little savings, so she accepted.The next day, Sylvia and the man searched the forest for the white heron, but they came back empty-handed. At first, Sylvia was afraid of the man’s shooting and collection plan. With some time passing by, she was surprised to find that he was a person with a warm heart and rich knowledge of birds. The two led the cow home together in the afternoon.Just before bed, Sylvia remembered that one tree in the forest stood taller than the rest. If she managed to climb it, she would surely find the heron’s nest below. The thought made her so excited that she couldn’t sleep. She finally got out of house in the early morning to find the heron before the man awoke.Reaching the top of the tree was a success in itself, but nothing was more amazing than the moment Sylvia truly saw the heron. High as a bird, she felt she and the heron were one, and she suddenly realized she couldn’t be part of its death. The man was waiting for her when she returnedhome, but she refused to help him any longer.Later, Sylvia wondered whether giving up the money—and the man’s friendship—was really worth (值得) the heron’s life, but the treasures she might have gained were easily forgotten among the beauty of the wild.—Synopsis(摘要) of A White Heron by Sarah Orne Jewett 22．Which of the following can best describe Sylvia and the bird collector?A．Weak and strong.B．Good and bad.C．Kind and social.D．Excited and calm.23．Why did Sylvia change her mind and refuse to help the man find the heron?A．She got a new understanding of the heron when she saw it.B．She knew that her grandmother didn’t really need the money.C．She found that the white heron was a special kind of rare bird.D．She learned that he planned to shoot and put it into his collection.24．Which is the right order according to the story?①Sylvia thought of the tallest tree at night.①Grandmother showed a warm welcome.①Sylvia knew more about the bird collector.①Bird collector offered money to get help.A．①①①①B．①①①①C．①①①①D．①①①①25．What can we infer from the story?A．Many people wanted the white heron.B．Sylvia decided to protect the white heron.C．Sylvia’s father was also a bird collector.D．The man became quite angry with Sylvia.根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Just before his 18th birthday, he got a letter from his pen pal, a student from Daye Middle School in Hubei, China. This letter was part of Blue Letter Project, which offers psychological (心理的) help to rural (乡村的) children aged 13—14 by writing letters to them.Lin, a student from Wuhan University, joined as a “letter volunteer”, and he wanted to make these children feel happy and active. To do this, volunteers like Lin learned how to give psychological help in a nice way. The key was to listen carefully and let the pen pals talk freely. And he knew that being optimistic (乐观的) and never giving up are also important.Lin Lusheng, the project’s leader, said that kids often don’t share their feelings with adults, which may lead to psychological problems. In this project, about 1% of the children faced seriousproblems like hurting themselves or even others. To help those kids, volunteers, mostly college students and professionals, wrote letters to the children. For example, Ji Xiaoming, who works at Eleme, wrote to Cao Yajuan. Cao wrote about her stress from study and wanted some help. Ji shared her own experiences and advice, “Remember, every challenge is a chance to grow,” Ji wrote. “When you fall down, don’t stay there. Stand up, and keep moving forward. You are stronger than you think, and I believe in you.” This letter made Cao feel more hopeful.This project is a bridge between rural children and their volunteer pen pals. It’s not just about helping rural children, and it’s also about growth for both sides.26．What is the purpose of the Blue Letter Project?A．To give away money to rural children.B．To help rural children with their study.C．To help rural children with psychological problems.D．To encourage rural children to write more letters.27．What does the underlined word “this” refer to in paragraph 2?A．Joining as a “letter volunteer”.B．Making the children feel happy and active.C．Learning how to give psychological help.D．Listening to the pen pals carefully.28．What advice did Ji Xiaoming give to Cao Yajuan?A．Stay still when falling down.B．Give up when facing challenges.C．Believe in herself and keep going.D．Ask for help from volunteers.29．What can you learn from the last paragraph?A．The project is good for the growth of rural children.B．Volunteers play an important role in helping rural children.C．Rural children and volunteer pen pals have built a bridge.D．The project helps both rural children and volunteer pen pals grow.30．What is the best title of this passage?A．Special Day for Lin Zhehao.B．Challenges Faced by Rural Children.C．The Importance of Communication for Rural Children.D．Blue Letter Project: Bridging Hearts Through Letters.阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有一项为多余选项。

It is a day to let people know about the importance of bees in our life. When bees fly from plant to plant, they carry pollen (花粉). The pollen makes new plants grow.There are three kinds of bees: workers, drones (雄蜂) and the queen. The queen bee is larger and longer than other bees. Her job is to lay (下蛋) eggs. She doesn’t find food by herself. The worker bees take care of her. The drone bees are lazy. They don’t work at all. Worker bees arevery smart and hard-working. They can fly 10 to 15 kilometers to look for food every day. But they never get lost. They all work together to build their living place.Do you know the life of bees? The queen bee lays an egg. After three days, the larva comes out of the egg. The larva looks like a white worm. It needs to eat more food to grow. Seven days later, the larva grows into a pupa. It starts to grow the body parts. After 11 days, the pupa becomes an adult bee. Most of the bees have short lives. They usually live for 60 to 65 days.The number of bees decreases these years, so people are using technology to help save the bees. Scientists will make robot bees to help feed and look after the queen bee. This will get the queen bee to lay more eggs and have more bees.26．Why do people set up World Bee Day?A．Because bees are in danger.B．Because bees can give us honey.C．Because bees are important in our life.D．Because bees are very hard-working. 27．Which bee lays eggs?A．The worker bee.B．The queen bee.C．The drone bee.D．The robot bee.28．What is the right order of the bee’s life?A．Egg→pupa→adult bee→larva.B．Egg→adult bee→pupa→larva.C．Egg→larva→pupa→adult bee.D．Egg→pupa→larva→adult bee. 29．What’s the meaning of the underlined word “decrease”?A．To become more.B．To become slower.C．To become faster.D．To become less.30．What’s the best title of the passage?A．The Birth of Bees B．The Facts of Bees C．The Helpers of BeesD．The Kinds of Bees信息配对四、翻译36．学生们应该每天打扫教室。

Xuwen has a history of pineapple planting that goes back nearly 100 years. One in three pineapples sold in the country comes from this place. With a pineapple planting area of about 350,000 mu and a yearly output of about 700,000 tons, it is known as the “hometown of pineapples” in China. But what makes Xuwen so successful?In 2019, the Guangdong government introduced a marketing system (系统) for pineapples grown in Xuwen and set up a special working group to make it happen. They called it “12221”, including the following five parts: “one database (数据基地) of agricultural product (农产品); “two” teams, namely buyers and producers (生产者); “two” marketing areas, sales areas and production areas; “two” activities, helping buyers into the production area and agricultural products into the market; and “one” goal-rural vitalization (乡村振兴). On the one hand, the project sent the fruit to bigger markets by finding buyers and improving the business sense of growers. On the other hand, it used big data to guide production and sales, according to Huang Jiatuan, who’s in control of agricultural development in Xuwen. “It changed people’s opinions and helped farmers have a better understanding of marketing,” said Liu Yicun, who used to work at the Xuwen government.Pineapples have also attracted people from around the country to visit Xuwen, helping the development of the local tourism. “Much like film locations became a calling card for different cities. The local food plays an important part when young tourists choose where to go.” said Feng Rao, director of Mafengwo. It’s common for young travelers, especially those born in the 1990s and 2000s to go on journeys so they can taste new flavors.3．What can we know about Xuwen from Paragraph 1?①The location of Xuwen①The history of growing pineapples①The reasons of its success①The popularity of the pineapplesA．①①①B．①①①C．①①①4．Which of the following is TRUE about the “12221” marketing system?A．Big data plays an important role in the system.B．The system makes a big difference to the farmers’ ways of growing pineapples.C．Buyers and farmers can communicate with each other by calling 12221.5．What is the main idea of the last paragraph?A．The Pineapple has been the most famous production.B．Xuwen has built many film locations to have more tourists.C．Pineapples have helped to develop tourism in Xuwen.6．In which part of a newspaper can we probably read the passage?A．Tourism.B．Agriculture.C．Technology.As the summer heat (热) rises in China, modern people welcome clothing that is light and thin. But this is not new as one might think. Unlike the elaborate (复杂的) clothing TV series show, ancient Chinese wore clothing that was lighter and thinner than modern people can imagine. Let us find out some examples of summer clothing from ancient China.The most famous piece is a sha gown (a piece of clothing made of “sha”). It was unearthed from Han Tomb No. 1 at Mawangdui in Changsha, Hunan province, in 1972. It is the earliest, most well-kept and thinnest dress in the world. The sha gown, “thin as a cicada (蝉) wing” and “light as smoke”, weighs 49 grams and can be folded into a matchbox.From the Han Dynasty to the Tang and Song Dynasties, luo robes got popular among the nobility (贵族) and only officials in the government were allowed to wear clothing made of this very thin material. Luo robes were right for the hot and wet southern areas of China. Compared with sha, luo has larger holes in the fabric (织物), making it more lightweight and breathable.But both sha and luo were unaffordable for common people. So the smart ancient people found a way to use plant fibers (纤维) for making clothes, which made the cost of summer clothing drop greatly. That is ge. Once the lunar month of June arrived, people would change to ge clothing. Later, fabric made from the plant “ma” came out, making summer clothing inexpensive and commonly used. During the Southern and Northern Dynasties, a classical style of clothing appeared. Liang dang is made up of front and back pieces, later called the vest (背心). It wasconvenient (方便的) for people working outdoors for a long time.Although the lives of ancient times cannot be compared to the modern time, the Chinese people actively looked for ways to make their summers more comfortable and convenient. 7．Which are the common features (特点) of sha gowns and luo robes?A．Light and thin.B．Comfortable and cheap.C．Warm and colorful. 8．The underlined word “unaffordable” in Paragraph 4 probably means _______.A．inconvenient B．costly C．uncomfortable9．What can we infer from the passage?A．Ge clothes are much cheaper than ma clothes.B．People could wear liang dang when working outdoors.C．Lives in ancient times are better than that in the modern time.10．What does the writer think of Chinese people?A．Peace-loving.B．Actively-thinking.C．Hard-working.根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
