It is a kind of grass, thoughmany people call it a tree.Like other kinds of grass, although you cut it very low to the ground, it will grow back very quickly. A Japanese scientist recorded one bamboo plant that grew nearly 1.5 meters in 24 hours. Bamboo grows almost everywhere in the world except Europe. There are over 1,000 kinds of bamboo and they grow around the world on both mountains and plains (平原).Not all bamboo looks the same. Some bamboo plants are thick. They may grow to more than 30 centimeters across while others may only grow to be a few centimeters wide. They may also have different colors, like yellow, black and green.Bamboo is a kind of utility plant. Many Asian countries use it to make many things such as hats and kitchen tools. And it is used to build buildings or support new buildings and bridges. In fact, the cables that hold up the hanging bridge across the Min River in Sichuan are made of bamboo.In Africa, engineers are teaching poor farmers how to find water using bamboo. These farmers need cheap ways to water the fields because they have no money. Bamboo pipes (管子) can help them bring water to their thirsty fields without much money.41. How is bamboo like grass according to the passage?A. It is thin and easy to cut.B. It grows everywhere.C. It is short and green.D. It grows quickly after it’s cut short.42. We can infer (推断) from Paragraph 2 that _________.A. a bamboo plant may grow 4.5 meters in three daysB. the Japanese scientist is good at growing bamboo plantsC. bamboo is able to grow well in any part of the worldD. mountains are the best places for the bamboo to grow43.

(必考题)初中英语八年级下册期末复习题(含答案解析)

一、选择题1．—Excuse me, could you please show me the time?—Sorry, I ________. My watch doesn’t work.A．mustn’t B．couldn’t C．needn’t D．can’t D解析：D【详解】句意：——打扰了，你能告诉我现在几点吗？——对不起，我不能。

我的手表坏了。

考查情态动词。

mustn’t禁止；couldn’t不能；needn’t不必；can’t不能。

“could you please do sth.”中的could是表示委婉的请求，回答时否定回答中用can’t表示“不能”，而不用couldn’t。

故选D。

2．—Volunteers are raising money to set up a special hospital for _______ old and sick. —What _______ unbelievable idea they’re coming up with!A．an; an B．the; a C．an; the D．the; an D解析：D【详解】句意：-----志愿者们正在筹集资金，为老年人和病人建立一所特别的医院。

----他们想出了一个多么不可思议的主意！考查冠词。

定冠词the用在形容词前表示一类人，或一群人，是一种复数含义，若做主语，谓语动词应用复数形式。

结合句意可知第一空填the；不定冠词（a、an）表示泛指、类指，仅用在单数可数名词前来表示"一"的意义，但不强调数目概念，只表示某类事物中的一个，a用于辅音音素开头的可数名词单数前，an用于元音音素开头的可数名词单数前。

结合句意可知第二句表示泛指，指“一个”多么不可思议的主意；故填an；选D。

【点睛】冠词是虚词，本身不能单独使用，也没有词义，它用在名词的前面，帮助指明名词的含义。

英语中的冠词有三种：定冠词、不定冠词、零冠词。

People all over the world are now taking action to fight against COVID﹣19．But what they do may depend on their own culture and traditions．On Feb 26, when an Italian lawmaker （议员） went into the country's Lower Chamber with a mask to prevent the novel coronavirus, he was criticized by his workmates for "causing panic （恐慌）"．Articles from Western media carry headlines such as "No, you do not need face masks to prevent coronavirus．" You might be surprised, as in China and other Asian countries, people have willingly put masks on during the outbreak．Western thoughts about masksIn the West, people are taught to wear masks only when they get sick． Masks are seen as a tool to protect sick people and prevent the disease from spreading, so healthy people don't need to wear them． Therefore, during the novel coronavirus outbreak, overseas Chinese students said that they would be "stared at like a virus spreader" if they go out with a mask．According to a survey done by Global Times among some European and American people, wearing a mask in public can make them feel "worried", "shy", and "afraid of being looked at differently．"But as the number of COVID﹣19 cases continues to grow around the world, many people in the West are changing their attitudes．In the US, for example, the need for masks is very high now．The US surgeon general has been asking people to avoid hoarding masks, as they are more needed in hospitals than by the general public．Mask culture in the EastIn Asian countries like China and Japan, there has been a long tradition of mask﹣wearing． In China, for example, when doctor Wu Liande invented the modern medical mask during the pneumonic plague （肺鼠疫） in 1910, the mask became a symbol of China's position as a modern, scientific nation．The 2003 SARS epidemic again led to the wide use of masks as a form of anti﹣viral protection in China and elsewhere in East Asia．In Japan, wearing masks has long been seen as a manner to reassure others when one catches a cold or flu．Some Japanese also turn masks into fashion accessories, with different colors and styles to match their clothes．Wearing masks is also a way to "hide" for young women when they don't have their make up on．In more collectivist cultures in Asia, wearing masks might also be a symbol of solidarity （团结） during theoutbreak, according to Christos Lynteris．"Mask culture in Asia creates a sense of a fate shared, common obligation and civic duty．" People wear masks "to show that they want to stick together" in the face of danger, Lynteris wrote．（1）The purpose of the story is to________．A. explain why Westerners don't wear masksB. prove the importance of wearing masks during an epidemicC. show how opinions about masks differ between different countriesD. explain the history of masks．（2）What isn't the reason for Japanese wearing masks？________A. They wear masks to reassure others when catching a cold or flu．B. Some Japanese wear masks as fashion accessories．C. Some young women wear masks when they don't make up．D. They wear masks to make others feel worried．．（3）What does Lynteris mean in the last paragraph？________A. People have no sense of duty if they don't wear masks．B. Mask culture creates a sense of collective obligation．C. Asian people are more united in the face of danger．D. We are a community with a shared future for mankind．19. On the morning of July 10th, 2018, Dr．Tian Jiabing passed away at the age of 99．Most educators will be familiar with his name．Over the course of his life he donated 80% of his wealth, building over 200 schools and 18, 000 libraries across the country since the 1980s, earning him the title of "Father of 100 Chinese Schools"．Through years of hard work, Tian Jiabing had great achievements in business．However, in 1997, after the financial crisis in Asia, Tian's businesses and foundations were influenced, making it difficult to ________ promises of donations．In order to make donations as planned, Tian, at the age of 83, decided to sell his home, in which he had lived for 38 years, for 56 million HK dollars．He then donated it to some schools in China, and moved into a small flat with his wife, In 2005, Tian also sold the 130, 000﹣square﹣metre Tian Square at the price of 300 million HK dollars which was later donated to over 10 universities and high schools．When he was interviewed, he said, "Since I had promised organizations my donations, I decided to sell my house to help these schools．This felt like a more worthwhile and meaningful action．" In interviews Tian expressed that education is linked to a country's strength and cultural development．He said that spending money on education is "spending money in the most useful of places", and that the value of education is far greater than the value of giving money．Even though every donation was tens or hundreds of million, Tian Jiabing lived a modest and simple life in Hong Kong．He was also strict with his children．He insisted that it was better to leave posterity（名誉） to the next generation rather than wealth．Tian was respected by people not only because of his great honours, but also because he never asked for returns for his work． Besides his big donations, Tian also gave an example with small actions which help the society get better．Tian Jiabing is considered as one of China's all﹣time greatest charitarian．More people will know about his efforts and spirit, inspiring and drawing the attention of more people to do good deeds together．（1）Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage？________A.Tian Jiabing was named "Father of 100 Chinese Schools" in 1980．B.Most Chinese know Tian Jiabing for his donation．C.Tian Jiabing helped build over 20，000 schools and libraries．D.Tian Jiabing was born in the twentieth century．．（2）Which is the correct order of the things below？________①He started to donate to build schools and libraries．②The financial crisis broke out and affected his business．③He bought his home which was sold later．④The Tian Square was sold to support education．A. ①③④②B. ③①②④C. ①②④③D. ③②①④．（3）The meaning of the underlined phrase " fulfill " is close to in Chinese________．A.展示B.继续C.提供D.产生．（4）The passage mainly talks about________．A.the loss of "Father of 100 Chinese Schools"B.the whole course of Tian Jiabing's lifeC.Tian Jiabing 's achievements in educationD.Tian Jiabing's great effort into education．20. Cold weather has a great effect, on how our minds and our bodies work．Maybe that is why there are so many expressions that use the word "cold"．For example, People who show no human emotions or feelings, for example, are said to be cold﹣blooded． Cold can affect other parts of the body, But the expression"get cold feet" has nothing to do with cold or your feet．The expression means being afraid to do something you had decided to do． For example, you agree to be CEO of a company． But then you learn that all the other officers have resigned（辞职） and all the work of the company will be your responsibility．You are likely to get cold feet about being CEO when you understand the situation．The expression"give someone the cold shoulder" probably comes from the physical act of turning your back toward someone, instead of speaking to him face﹣to﹣face． You may give a cold shoulder to a friend who breaks your words, or to someone who has lied about you to others．"A cold fish" is not a fish．It if a person．But it is a person who isunemotional and shows no love or warmth．A cold fish does not offer much of himself to anyone． Someone who is a cold fish could be cold﹣hearted．He or she will never feel sorry for those in bad situation．"Out in the cold"means not getting something that everybody else got．A person might say that everybody but him got a pay raise﹣﹣he was left out in the cold．And it is not a pleasant place to be．（1）What's of the following shows the structure of the passage？________（2）Henry goes the cold shoulder when he asked to have a date with Mary， that means________．A. Henry was treated politely when he asked Mary to have a date．B. Henry was afraid to invite Mary to have an appointment with him．C. Mary didn't care about Henry's invitation and didn't plan to date with him．D. Mary behaved unfriendly because she didn't like to talk with Henry face to face．．（3）If you get cold feet，this means that________．A. you feel brave to do somethingB. you feel too nervous to do somethingC. you feel too cold to do somethingD. you feel very angry about doing something．（4）What is the best title for the passage？________A. Opinions about cold weather．B. Expressions connected with "cold"C. Relation between cold and bodyD. Examples of people who have a cold．21. Unless we spend money to spot and prevent asteroids now, one might crash into Earth and destroy life as we know it, say some scientists．Asteroids are bigger versions of the meteoroids that race across the night sky．Most orbit the sun far from Earth and don't threaten us． But there are also thousands of asteroids whose orbits put them on a collision course with Earth．But 500 million worth of new telescopes right now, then spend $10 million a year for the next 25 years to locate most of the space rocks．By the time we spot a fatal one, the scientists say, we‘ll have a way to change its course．Is it worth it? Two things experts consider when judging any risk are ①How l ikely the event is; ②How bad the consequences if the event occurs．Experts think an asteroid big enough to destroy lots of life might strike Earth once every 500000 years．Sounds pretty rare but if one did fall．It would be the end of the world． "If we don't take care of these bid asteroids, they'll take care of us, "says one scientist．"it's that simple．"The cure, though, might be worse than the disease．Do we really want fleets of nuclear weapons sitting around on Earth? "the world has less fear from doomsday rocks than from a great nuclear fleet set against them．" Said a New York Times article．（1）What does the passage say about asteroids and meteoroids？________A. They are heavenly bodies different in composition．B. They are heavenly bodies similar in nature．C. They are more asteroids than meteoroids．D. Asteroids are more mysterious than meteoroids．．（2）What do scientists say about the collision of an asteroid with Earth？________ A. It is very unlikely but the danger exists．B. Such a collision might occur once every 25 years．C. Collisions of smaller asteroids with Earth occur more often than expected．D. It is still too early to say whether such a collision might occur．．（3）We can conclude from the passage that________．A. While pushing asteroids off course nuclear weapons would destroy the world．B. Asteroids racing across the night sky are likely to hit Earth in the near future．C. The worry about asteroids can be left to future generations since it is unlikely to happen in our lifetime．D. Workable solutions still have to be found to prevent a collision of asteroids with Earth．．（4）What genre does this article belong to ？________A. ExpositionB. DiscriptionC. NarrationD.
