2024-2025学年（上）湛江八年级质量检测英语

1、  Waste can bring a lot of problems. Although China is rich in some resources (资源) , we are short of others, for example, fresh water. It is reported that we will have no coal or oil to use in 100 years. So if we go on wasting our resources, what can we use in the future and where can we move? Think about it. I think we should say no to the students who waste things every day. Everyone should stop wasting as soon as possible.

In our everyday life, we can do many things to prevent (阻止) waste from happening, for example, turn off the water taps when we finish washing, turn off the lights when we leave the classroom, try not to order more food than we need, and so on. Little by little, everything will be changed. Waste can be stopped one day, if we do our best.

25、Today, an increasing number of people are always looking at their mobile phones with their heads down. These people are called the “Heads-down Tribe(低头族)”. Are you a heads-down tribe member? Heads-down tribe members now can be seen everywhere.

More and more traffic accident are happening because drivers use mobile phones when they are driving. In order to make drivers pay more attention to driving, some new traffic rules have been made. For example, heads-down tribe members who use mobile phones while driving will be fined ¥200.

As we can see above, using mobile phones may cause accidents and even cost money. Besides, more and more interesting things happen to the “Heads-down Tribe”.

When he lifted his eyes from the phone, he was so scared that he ran away as quickly as possible.

Another fact is that we can often see people in the restaurant eating face to face but looking at their own mobile phones. It’s strange that they don’t talk to the ones who sit opposite to them during the meal. Some of them even have fun communicating with others on the phone all the time.

27、

Nearly 500 years before Christopher Columbus, brave Viking seamen crossed the Atlantic Ocean. Vikings were the first Europeans to reach North America. They lived in a par of Northern Europe called Scandinavia. Most Vikings were peaceful farmers, traders, and talented workmen. But they were also excellent shipbuilders.

Viking ships were smartly and creatively designed. They were well-built with common wood and strong enough to sail hundreds of miles on the open sea. They were light enough to be carried over land. When there was no wind, the seamen could row the ships with oars（船桨）.

Vikings traveled far in search of goods such as silk, glass, and silver. Some Vikings sailed west and lived on the islands of Iceland and Greenland from then on. Between 997 and 1003 A.D., a Viking named Leif Eriksson landed in what is now Canada. The Vikings probably stayed for less than ten years, though they traded with Native（当地的）Americans for much longer. A bit of their culture can still be found on American calendar. Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday are named for Viking gods!

【1】Where did the Vikings mainly live at the beginning?

A.Canada. B.Scandinavia.

C.Iceland and Greenland. D.The Atlantic Ocean.

【2】According to the passage, which of these was a feature of Viking ships?

A.They were large enough to hold many people.

B.They were light enough to be carried over land.

C.They had very colorful sails and strong oars.

D.They were made from special and expensive wood.

【3】Which of these answers shows the cultural influence of the Vikings?

A.Some days of the week have Viking names.

C.Vikings were known for talented workmen.

D.Americans started using Viking ship designs.

28、短文填词。

The common Chinese greeting of “Ni chi le ma” may soon be replaced (代替) by a new 【1】: “Have you 【2】 your plate”

The Clean Your Plate Campaign (光盘运动) began on the Internet in 2016. It calls on people to reduce (减少) food waste. China in 【3】 (recently) years has experienced serious problems with wasted food. CCTV reported in January that the food Chinese people waste every year is enough to feed 200 【4】(hundred) people for a year.

Chinese people are well-known for their friendly behavior (举止) towards guests. Many even feel that they lose face if their 【5】 have eaten all the food.

It’s 【6】 for everyone to reduce food waste. However, wasting food is still a serious problem in China. We still have a long 【7】 to go.

President Xi Jinping is 【8】 (encourage) people to be less wasteful, and he told Party members to cut back on wasteful holiday banquets (宴会) . He said they should be more careful when spending the people’s money.

Wasting food certainly goes 【9】 [ə'ɡenst] what Xi Jinping calls, “the Chinese tradition of being hardworking and thrifty (节俭).” Having a “clean plate” is just a 【10】 [trə'dɪʃənl] and important thing to do.

Have you cleaned your plate?
