2025-2026学年（上）德州八年级质量检测英语

1、阅读下面短文。

Have you ever made a promise to yourself that you didn’t keep? 1.Usually, when the New Year begins, we make resolutions like studying harder or learning to play the guitar. Sadly not long after that, we often end up breaking them. But what if we want to develop a new good habit?

A habit is something we do almost without realizing it. It’s just like having breakfast or saying “Thank you”, which most of us do every day.

2. 极据一项研究, 培养一个新习惯通常需要66天。This is possible. However, willpower （意志力） might not be the only thing you need. The reason for developing the habit is important.

The problem is, your feelings may influence your willpower. For example, a bad feeling may mean you don’t want to do anything.

3.这研究也表明你不应该一次改变太多。 Remember that it’s a case of baby steps. Giving up all your favorite foods, doing morning exercise and going to bed early at the same time will probably result in failure.

4. Finally, if you feel uncomfortable when doing something, then stop doing it.

It might not be quick to develop a new habit. But if you follow the advice, you may succeed. 5.So be patient and believe that you can make change for the better.

24、Nowadays, more and more new inventions make our life more comfortable and convenient. It is difficult for us to point out which inventions changed human’s life the most. But in my opinion, the three greatest inventions are changing the world the most. They are electricity, planes and computers.

Firstly, electricity actually becomes necessary in human being’s life. Many big and heavy machines are used to produce foods, clothes and other everyday products in factories. Such machines work only with the help of electricity. In fact, we cannot imagine how we would live without electricity in modern times.

Secondly, I believe computers have changed our life greatly. They help us a lot in saving information. Computers are widely used in almost all fields, such as studying, working, entertaining(娱乐) and so on.

Lastly, the significant is the invention of planes. They have changed the way of our traveling. They can turn long and boring journeys into short trips. With their help, people from different parts of the world could travel from one place to another quickly. I think planes are really important in our life.

【1】What does the writer think of the three inventions?

A．Most comfortable.

B．Most important.

C．Most interesting.

D．Most general.

【2】What has changed the way people save information?

A．Electricity.

B．TVs.

C．Computers.

D．Paper.

25、   China is a country with a long history. It has great, traditional culture, especially Chinese characters (汉字). Chinese characters usually have more than one meaning and some of them are interesting. Here are six ones. We use “pinyin” here because “pinyin” is the Chinese spelling way for the characters. For example. “fu”is the “pinyin”: for good luck in Chinese. Pinyin “fu” is only the phonic part of the characters and if you want to know the meaning of good luck “fu” you must read Chinese characters “福” because“fu”also represents (代表) other Chinese characters that sound the same.

“Fu” means blessing, good fortune, good luck. Chinese character “fu” is one of the most popular ones used during Chinese New Year. Chinese people often put up “fu” upside down on the front door of a house or an apartment. The upside down“fu”means good luck comes since the character for upside down in Chinese sounds the same as the character for “come”.

“Lu” is used to mean official’s pay in old China. “Shou” means long life, age or birthday. “Xi”is happiness, The doubled character “xi” means double happiness. It is usually put up everywhere at Chinese weddings. “Cai” is wealth or money. Chinese often say “money can make a ghost turn a millstone”. It is to say money really can do a lot of things. But, money can’t buy everything. “He” is an important part of Chinese culture. It means good relations with other people, when you have “he”, things will be a lot easier for you. The top six lucky Chinese characters. “fu” “lu” “shou” “xi” “cai” “he”, are particularly loved by Chinese people.

26、

In 1987, a small company named Huawei was started in Shenzhen. After more than 30 years of development, the company has now beaten Apple and become the world’s second-largest maker of smart phones behind Korea’s Samsung. It has also become the world’s largest supplier (供应商) of 5G.

But recently, Huawei faced some difficulties. The U.S. government ordered a ban (禁令) on its sales in America. American officials said Huawei gave information (that it collected) to the Chinese government. At the same time, the U.S. government planned to stop selling parts and services to Huawei, which was believed that Huawei’s business would be hurt.

“We have never received such a request from the Chinese government and we have never tried to get into other systems (系统) to collect information.” Ren Zhengfei, Huawei’s founder and president said. “The ban from the U.S. would have little effect on our company. Huawei has enough ability to deal with the problems.” Ren added.

In an interview several years ago, Ren Zhengfei said, “I started Huawei with only £4,000 at the beginning, but now it has become a $100 billion company. The experience was not as romantic (浪漫的) as you imagine.”

Facing the ban of the U.S., Huawei is growing. Huawei’s smart phone sales around the world rose 50 percent compared to a year earlier in the first three months of 2019. At the same time, sales from both Samsung and Apple fell. So far, Huawei has grown into the world’s largest telecommunications equipment (电信设备) supplier, selling in 170 countries! It may beat Samsung as the largest smart phone maker in the near future.

【1】Which company is the largest supplier of 5G in the world?

A．Huawei.

B．Apple.

C．Samsung.

【2】Why did the U.S. order a ban on Huawei?

A．Huawei’s sales in America were growing faster than Apple.

B．Huawei refused to supply services to U.S. government.

C．They thought Huawei collected information for Chinese government.

【3】From what Ren Zhengfei said, we can learn that Huawei ________.

A．is deeply affected by the ban

B．has gone into the system of the U.S.

C．can solve the problems they are facing

【4】The underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 means ________.

A．Huawei’s developing experience was hard

B．it is romantic to start a company with £4,000

C．the romantic experience was a large amount of wealth

【5】What does the writer want to tell us in the last paragraph?

A．Huawei is full of hope.

B．Huawei will grow slowly.

C．Huawei is the largest smart phone maker.

27、Every living thing needs to reproduce. Reproducing means creating more members of your group. In order for plants to reproduce, they have to spread their seeds (种子) to other areas. Plants have developed all kinds of ways to do this.

The simplest way is gravity. Many seeds are inside of fruit. When a piece of fruit gets too heavy, it falls from a tree to the ground. Sometimes animals will pick up the fruit and drop it in another area. That helps move the seed even farther away. Apples spread this way.

Other plants use wind to spread their seeds. Dandelions (蒲公英) are a good example of this. Dandelion seeds are so light that when wind blows, it carries dandelion seeds to new places. Maple (枫树) seeds also use wind. Their seeds are connected with long, thin leaves that look like wings. When the seed falls from the tree, its “wings” help it fly farther from the tree.

Some animals help plants spread their seeds. The animals eat the seeds. While the seed is in the animal’s body, it stays whole. When the seed leaves the animal, it’s in a new place.

Ants also help spread seeds. Some seeds have a special smell that attracts ants. The ants bring the seeds back to their home, which of course is underground. They only eat part of the seed. They leave the rest of the seed underground. After that, the seed can start growing.

根据短文内容选择最佳答案。

【1】The underlined word “gravity” in the second paragraph means “________” in Chinese.
