Then Mr. Thompson said to his son, “Now, Tom, I want to teach you a useful lesson. How do you know when you’ve had enough? Well, I’ll tell you. Did you see those two lights at the end of the bar? When they seem to become four, you’ve had enough and should go home.”

  “But, Dad,”said Tom,“I can only see one light at the end of the bar.”

  B

  Every morning my father buys a newspaper on his way to work. Every evening my mother looks through magazines at home. And every night, I look at the posters with photos of David Beckham and Yao Ming on my bedroom wall before I go to sleep. Can we imagine life without paper or print?

  Paper was first created about 2,000 years ago, and has been made from silk, cotton, bamboo, and, since the 19th century, from wood. People learned to write words on paper to make a book. But in those days,books could only be produced one at a time by hand. As a result,they were expensive and rare. And because there weren’t many books, few people learned to read.

  Then printing was invented in China. When printing was developed greatly at the beginning of the 11th century, books could be produced more quickly and cheaply. As a result, more people learned to read. After that,knowledge and ideas spread quickly.

  Today information can be received online, downloaded from the Internet rather than found in books, and information can be kept on CD-ROMs or machines such as MP3 players.

  Computers are already used in classrooms, and newspapers and magazines can already be read online. So will books be replaced by computers one day? No, I don’t think the Yao Ming poster on my bedroom wall will ever be replaced by a computer two metres high!

  51.What does the writer do before he goes to sleep?

  A.He reads books. B.He reads newspapers.

  C.He looks through magazines. D.He looks at the posters on the wall.

  52.When was paper first created?

  A.About 2,000 years ago. B.In the 19th century.

  C.About 1,000 years ago. D.In the 11th century.

  53.Why were books expensive and rare before the invention of printing?

  A.People could not read.

  B.People could not write words on paper.

  C.People could not find silk, cotton or bamboo.

  D.People could only produce books one at a time by hand.

  54.What happened after books became cheaper?

  A.People didn’t want to buy books.

  B.Printing was invented in China.

  C.Knowledge and ideas spread quickly.

  D.The Internet was introduced to people soon.

  55.What is the writer’s opinion about books and computers?

  A.People won’t need books any more.

  B.Books won’t be replaced by computers.

  C.People prefer to find information in books.

  D.Computers have already replaced books.

  外研版八年级英语下期中试卷参考答案

  16.D 本题考查冠词的用法。句意:“早餐你通常吃什么?”“一片面包和一个鸡蛋。”三餐名词前通常不加任何冠词,由此可排除A、C两项;此处数量“一个”用不定冠词表示,egg的读音以元音音素开头,前面应用不定冠词an,再排除B项。故选D。

  17.A 本题考查数词的用法。句意:“六班在哪里?”“它在三楼。”“几班”的表达为“Class+基数词”, 由此可排除B、D两项;表示“第几”时用“the+序数词”,再排除C项。故选A。

  18.B 本题考查介词的用法。since“自从”;between“在两者之间”;as“作为”;during“在……期间”。由句意“工人们将在这两座城市之间修建一条新铁路”可知,此处用between。故选B。

  19.C 本题考查代词的用法。invite(邀请)为及物动词,其后的人称代词应该用宾格,故排除A、B两项;party(聚会)为名词,前面应该用形容词性物主代词修饰,排除D项。故选C。

  20.B 本题考查形容词的比较等级。than前应用比较级,popular的比较级应在前面加more,故选B。

  21.C 本题考查动词词义辨析。protect“保护”;produce“生产”;join“加入”;receive“收到”。句意为“去年他加入了一个英语俱乐部并且他的英语提高了很多”。故选C。

  22.A 本题考查副词词义辨析。immediately“立即,立刻”;recently“最近”;carefully“认真地”;luckily“幸运地”。由句意“快点!比赛马上就要开始了”可知此处用immediately。故选A。

  23.B 本题考查连词的用法。but“但是”;if“如果”;and“和”;or“否则”。由句意“如果你不早起床,上学就会迟到”知应用if引导条件状语从句。

  24.C 本题考查名词词义辨析。instruction“指令”;description“描述”;collection“收藏品”;expression“表达”。句意:“看看我的邮票。”“它们真漂亮!你有一个极好的收藏。”此处用collection。故选C。

  25.D 本题考查非谓语动词。promise to do sth.意为“承诺做某事”。句意:他承诺在他待在天津期间去看他的老朋友。

  26.C 本题考查动词的时态。由saw和时间状语yesterday可知第一句为一般过去时态;第二句中at that moment是指“昨天的那个时候”,故应用过去进行时态。句意:我昨天在图书馆看见他了。那时他正在看书。

  27.A 本题考查动词短语含义辨析。put on“穿上”;turn on“打开”;put up“举起”;give up“放弃”。由句意“外边很冷,出去之前穿上毛衣”可知此处用put on。故选A。

  28.B 本题考查动词时态。句意:“汤姆在家吗?”“不在,他去镇上了。”应选择B项,表明他去了镇上。have/has gone to表示“去了(某地)”;have/has been to表示“去过(某地)”。

  29.A 本题考查连词的用法。when“当……时候”;before“在……之前”;since“既然,自……以来”;although“虽然”。由句意“当我回来时,我发现我妈妈正在为我做饭”可知此处用when。故选A。

  30.D 本题考查情景交际。It doesn’t matter.意为“没关系”;Thank you.意为“谢谢你”;Sorry to hear that.意为“听说那件事很难过”;Sounds great.意为“听上去不错”。前句“今天晚上为什么不去老舍茶馆呢?”邀请对方参加活动,故此处只有Sounds great.符合语境。故选D。

  31.B 本题考查被动语态和主谓一致。由于speak和languages之间是动宾关系,故此题应使用被动语态,可排除A、C两项。languages为复数,再排除D项,故选B。

  32.C 本题考查情态动词。needn’t“不必”;must“必须”;might“可能”;mustn’t“禁止,不准”。由“we’re not sure”可知,答话人对他们的安排尚不确定,应用might表示可能性的推测。故选C。

  33.A 本题考查宾语从句。由答语中的because可知横线处询问他离开的原因,故应选用why,排除C、D两项。宾语从句应使用陈述语序,排除B项。故选A。

  34.A 本题考查定语从句。句意为“昨天晚上我们看的电影棒极了”。先行词movie指“物”,且关系词在定语从句中作saw的宾语,故用关系代词that或which。故选A。

  35.D 本题考查情景交际。good luck“祝你好运”;not at all“一点也不”;good idea“好主意”;congratulations“祝贺”。由前句“妈妈,我在摄影比赛中得了一等奖”可知后句表示祝贺,应选用Congratulations。故选D。

  36. B chance“机会”,advice“建议”,excuse“借口”,business“商业”。根据文章最后一段的“So my advice is this: If a snake bites you, pick up your phone.”可知选B。

  37.A suddenly“突然”,nearly“几乎”,especially“尤其”,fortunately“幸运地”。根据文章叙述,应该是“突然”一条蛇出现了,咬到了杰克逊先生的手。

  38.C 通过前文“...Henry Jackson was working in a restaurant kitchen.”可知事故应该是发生在一家餐馆里,所以本题选择restaurant。

  39.B 根据文意可知应该是这条蛇爬出了箱子然后“藏”在了盘子底下,故选择hid(hide“隐藏”)。其他三个hung(hang“悬挂”),jumped(jump“跳”),ran(run“跑”)均与文意不符。

  40.D under“在……下面”,into“进入”,towards“朝”。由常识可知,不可能将蛇扔到厨房下面,故排除under;根据前文我们知道这条蛇本来就在厨房里,所以throw...into“把……扔进(厨房)”和throw...towards“把……扔向(厨房)”均不符合逻辑。throw it across the kitchen意为“把它从厨房的这一边扔向那一边”。

  41.A stay cool意为“保持镇静”,说的是杰克逊先生很镇静,还用手机给蛇拍了一张照片。其他形容词noisy(吵闹的),pleased(满意的),afraid(害怕的)都与前面的anyway(无论如何)不符。

  42.C 由前文的“bit him on the hand”可知,很快他的手开始疼,所以选hand。

  43.D “医生说不清楚状况”的原因是“他们不知道这条蛇的种类”,所以选because。

  44.B send sth. to...意为“把某物送/寄到……”,此处是说,医生把杰克逊先生拍摄的照片发送到了伦敦动物园。

  45.C 从全文可知杰克逊先生给大家的建议是如果蛇咬了你,给它拍照。所以本题应用it(指蛇)的形容词性物主代词its。

  46. B 由短文中第一句“In England nobody under eighteen years old is allowed to drink in a bar(酒吧).”可知答案。

  47. D 由短文中“Mr. Thompson often went to a bar near his house. But he never took his son, Tom, ...”可知答案。

  48.A 由短文中“Then when Tom had his eighteenth birthday, Mr. Thompson took him to his usual bar for the first time.”可知答案。

  49.C 由短文中“How do you know when you’ve had enough?”可知答案。

  50.A 由短文中“ ‘But, Dad,’ said Tom, ‘I can only see one light at the end of the bar.’”可知答案。

  51.D 根据文章第一段的And every night, I look at the posters...before I go to sleep.可知,作者在睡觉前会看卧室墙上的海报。故选D。

  52.A 根据文章第二段的Paper was first created about 2,000 years ago ...可知,纸是在大约2000年前被发明的。故选A。

  53.D 根据文章第二段的But in those days, books could only be produced one at a time by hand.可知,书昂贵又稀少是由于古代手工技术的限制。故选D。

  54.C 根据文章第三段的After that, knowledge and ideas spread quickly.可知,自从书变得便宜之后,知识和思想的传播变得迅速。故选C。

  55.B 根据文章最后一段的No, I don’t think the Yao Ming poster on my bedroom wall will ever be replaced by a computer two metres high!可推知作者认为书本不会被电脑所取代。故选B。

  56.years’ many修饰复数名词,根据句意知,此处用名词所有格形式修饰名词practice。

  57.fortieth 此处表达“第四十个”生日,故用序数词。

  58.thinner 此句为“the+比较级…,the+比较级…”结构,意为“越……越……”。注意thin的比较级需要双写n再加-er。句意为“山越高空气越稀薄”。

  59.truth to tell the truth为固定短语,意为“说实话”。

  60.unusual 根据后一分句句意“几乎没有人有机会做这件事”可推知前一分句句意为“这是一个不寻常的经历”。故填unusual。

  61.seafood, delicious 62.has been

  63.at first at first为固定短语,意为“首先,起初”。

  64.go sightseeing go sightseeing为固定短语,意为“去观光”。

  65.all over all over the world为固定短语,意为“全世界,遍及世界”。

  One possible version:

  Last summer vacation, my family and I went to Qingdao by train. There was always sunshine and fresh air, which made us so comfortable. We went to the seaside. The sea was as blue as the sky, and bathing in the sunshine on the beach was really an enjoyable thing. I also picked up a lot of colorful shells with my little sister. There we bought many interesting souvenirs. I was planning to send them to my friends. We ate many things there, such as fish, and prawns. They are very delicious. Then we lived in a clean and tidy hotel, and the price was not so expensive. I like Qingdao very much, and if I get a chance, I hope to come here again; it is such a beautiful and interesting place.
