When he got home, he went upstairs to his bedroom and put them on. He found they were about two inches(英寸)too long.He went downstairs to the kitchen. His mother and two sisters were washing up the tea-things there. “The new trousers are too long,’’ he said. “They need shortening by about two inches. Could one of you do it for me, please?’’ But they were busy a nd none of them said anything.But as soon as his mother had finishing washing up, she went quietly upstairs to her son’s bedroom and shortened the trousers by two inches. She came downstairs without saying anything to her daughters.After supper , the eld er sister remembered her brother’s trousers. She was a kind-hearted girl, so she went upstairs without saying anything to anyone, and shortened the trousers by two inches.The younger sister went to the cinema, but when she came home she, too, remembered h er brother’s trousers. So she ran upstairs and did as her mother and sister had done.You can imagine the look on the young man’s face when he put the trousers on the next morning.( )36．The young man’s trousers were______ for him at first.A ．a bit long B．very good C．not too long D. too short( )37．The young man’s mother and sisters didn’t answer him because they were busy______ in the kitchen.A．cooing B. making tea C. washing clothes D. washing cups, glasses and so on( )38．His elder sister shortened the trousers ______.A．in the evening B．after lunch C．as soon as she had finished the washingD．after she came back from the cinema( )39．The next morning the young man found that the trousers were______ inches too short for him.

Some students become worried because they have to study very hard. Others have trouble getting on well with people around them like their parents and classmates. Parents and teachers should care more about this problem.”Then Mr. Ma gave some examples. One patient, a middle school student from Xi’an was doing badly in his lessons. He thought his teachers and friends often laughed at him, and he became so nervous and worried that one night he left his home without telling parents. Another student, a 14-year-old schoolgirl from Shanghai, was very afraid of exams. While she was reading the exam paper, she couldn’t think of anything to write.A recent report from Jie fang Daily says about 18% of the young students in Shanghai have mental problems. They often feel worried and very unhappy. Unluckily, many of them won’t go and ask for help. Some think they will look stupid if they go to s ee a doctor. Others won’t talk about their own secrets (秘密).At the end of the meeting, Mr. Ma offered some good ideas to young people:◆Talk to your parents or teachers often.◆Take part in group activities.◆Try to get along well with the people around you.◆Go to see a doctor if you often feel unhappy.41. What’s the matter with the students probably if they often become worried or have trouble getting on well with others?A. They may have no parents.B. They may have no secrets.C.

When she studied very hard.C. When she talked with her parents.D. When she had exams.43. Why won’t students with mental problems ask for help?A. Because they don’t want to talk about their secrets with others.B. Because their parents are too busy to look after them.C. Because doctors can’t help them with the problems.D. Because they have no time to go to see a doctor.44. How many good ideas did Mr. Ma offer to young people?A. Two.B. Three.C. Four.D. Five.45. What’s the main idea of the passage?A. Young students’ mental problems.B. Young students’ success.C. Young students’ communication.D. Young students’ secrets.CIn many English homes people eat four meals a day: breakfast, lunch, tea and dinner.People have breakfast at any time from seven to nine in the morning. They eat porridge, eggs, or bread. English people drink tea or coffee at breakfast.Lunch comes at one o’clock. Afternoon tea is from four to five in the afternoon and dinner is about half past seven. First they have soups, and then they have meat or fish with vegetables. After that they eat some other things, like bananas, apples or oranges. But not all English people eat like that. Some of them have their dinner in the middle of the day. Their meals are breakfast, dinner, tea and supper and all these meals are very necessary.()46.Many English people have______ meals a day.A. twoB. threeC. fourD. three or four() 47. People may have ______ for their breakfast?A. tea and eggsB. porridge, eggs, bread, tea or coffeeC. tea and coffeeD. bread and eggs()48.

In some English homes dinner comes______.A. at one o’clockB. in the middle of the dayC. at noonD. at nightDLong long time ago，the Creator created a man and a woman，they lived together very happily for a time.But then they began to get angry with each other，and at last the woman left and started off to the Sun land in the east.The man followed alone and felt very sad，but the woman kept on ahead and never looked behind，until the Creator，took pity on him and asked him if he was still angry with his wife.He said he was not，and the Creator then asked him if he would like to have her back again.He answered yes.So the Creator created a patch (一块)of the finest ripe (成熟的) tomatoes along the way in front of the woman，but she passed by like seeing nothing at ter，he put a patch of beautiful flowers but again she refused to notice.Until suddenly she saw in front of her a patch of large ripe strawberries.They looked delicious.She stopped to pick a few to eat，and as she ate them she turned her face to the west by accident，and at once she remembered her husband and she found herself unable to go on.She sat down，but the longer shewaited，the more she missed her husband，and at last she took a lot of the best strawberries and started back along the way to give them to him.He met her kindly and they went home together.()51.What's the relationship between the man and the woman?A．Friends. B．Mother and son.C．Husband and wife. D．Father and daughter.()52.The woman stopped for the ________ thing that the Creator created.A．second B．third C．fourth D．fifth()53.What did the woman bring back to the man?A．Tomatoes.

B．In a history book.C．In a nature magazine. D．In a story book.EAre you shy? If you are, you are not alone. In fact, close to 50 percent of people are shy. Almost 80 percent of people feel shy sometimes. Shyness is becoming more and more common. Now, scientists are trying to understand shyness. They have some interesting ideas about why people are shy.Is it possible to be born shy? Many scientists say yes. They say 15 to 20 percent of babies behave shyly. These babies are a little quieter than other babies. Interestingly, these shy babies usually have shy parents. So scientists think that some shyness is genetic.Family size might cause people to be shy as well. Scientists at Harvard University studied shy children. They found that 66 percent of them had elder brothers and sisters. As a result, they became shy. At the same time, children with no brothers or sisters may be shy as well. Growing up alone, they often play by themselves.You may also be shy because of where you were born. When scientists studied shyness in different countries, they found surprising differences. In Japan, most people said they were shy. But in Israel(以色列), only one of three people said so. What explains the difference? One scientist says the Japanese and Israelis have different opinions of failure. In Japan, when people don’t succeed, they feel bad about themselves. They blame（责备）themselves for their failure. In Israel, the truth is opposite. Israelis often blame failure on external (外在的) reasons, such as family, teachers, friends, or bad luck. In Israel, freedom of opinion and risk taking are strongly supported. This may be why Israelis worry less about failure and are less shy.For shy people, it can be difficult to make friends or speak loudly in class. But scientists say you can get over your shyness. They suggest trying new things and practicing conversation. And don’t forget—if you are shy, you are not the only one.56. How many percent of people feel shy sometimes?A. 50 percent.B. 66 percent.C. 80 percent.D. 15 to 20 percent.57. The following facts are the causes of shyness EXCEPT ________.A. family sizeB. the place you were bornC. be born shyD. dream for jobs58. The underlined word “genetic” means “________” in Chinese.A. 遗传的B. 可怕的C. 有趣的D. 无能为力的59. Scientists suggest that shy people can get over their shyness by _________.A. blaming their failure on outside reasonsB. trying new things and practicing conversationC. getting themselves away from their shy parentsD. trying to understand reasons for their shyness60. Which is the main idea of the article?A. Difficulties to get over shyness.B. Get over shyness, you are not alone.C. Shyness is one of the most important feelings.D. Scientists who are trying to understand shyness finally succeed.第二卷非选择题(50分)III、根据短文内容及首字母提示完成所缺单词。

How can we solve the problem? Here are some suggestions.First, we are supposed to have good study methods, such as previewing the lessons before class, listening to the teacher carefully in class, taking notes In time，reviewing in time, doing homework on time, correcting mistakes at any time. Then, it's helpful for study to have good health. So we should spend at least an hour (in) exercising our body every day. Besides, we'd better make good use of time. Don't put off what we can do today till tomorrow. We should ask the teacher or classmates for help if we have any questions.If you follow the advice that I have mentioned above, you will be successful.。

We have always thought of ourselves as being smarter and more advanced (先进的). But with the development of AI(人工智能)，this question becomes more complicated (复杂的).In October 2017, a robot called Sophia was made a Saudi Arabian citizen and became the first robot to have a nationality (国籍) . Sophia can talk with humans. This has led to some questions, such as whether intelligent robots should have the same rights as humans.Of course, AI is still a long way from being able to have feelings the way humans do. The question of whether AI should have rights or not might be a bit silly right now. But we should keep in mind that AI can learn both the good and bad things that humans teach it.For example, in 2016, Microsoft introduced Tay- a computer program that could talk to people on social media (社交媒体). Tay learned how to talk with humans by reading the things they wrote online. Within 24 hours, Tay went from writing polite replies to making rude comments(表达) . It learned to “say" these rude things from real humans.In the future, we may need to program AI with a sense of morality (道德).Morals are what make us different from other animals. AI can do many of the same things we do, such as drive cars or order food. But it cannot tell the difference between right and wrong. It cannot feel sadness or joy. It cannot tell beauty. And that is the difference between us and the machines.9. The robot Sophia is different from other robots because________A. it is more advanceB. it has a nationalityC. it is the first AI robotD. it can talk to humans10. The author doesn't think intelligent robots should have the same rights as humans,八年级英语试题第3页（共8页）Because________A.AI can learn better and faster than humansB.AI will never become a powerful form of life on EarthC.AI can't have feelings the way humans do at presentD. Some intelligent robots made rude comments on humans11. In what ways humans are different from intelligent robots?A. Human beings can tell good from evil.B. Humans can think and value.C. Humans are smarter and more advancedD. Humans all have a high sense of morality.DReggie was born deaf (聋的). Everyone in the town knew him, and they were all very friendly to him. But he always seemed to be treated (对待) differently from everyone else because people worried that he would be hurt. 12 Reggie didn't like this very much. But the person who didn't like it most was his friend Michael. Michael decided to make a change. 13 After Michael told his father, the Mayor (市长)，he agreed to hold a festival for the deaf one day. On that day everyone in the town would have to wear earplugs (耳机) to experience Reggie's life. 14 The day became known as the Day of Silence. As the hours passed, people began to learn how difficult Reggie's life was.15 solve problems. They realized that he had always been like that. They got to know15People looked at Reggie and were surprised by his ability (能力) to that Reggie didn't have any problem in communicating. All Reggie needed was more time to communicate. From then on, people realized they should give everyone with a disability a chance to show themselves.A. On that day, Reggie was the best one to communicate with others.B. People accepted the idea because they loved Reggie.C. He asked his father for help.D. That made him feel awful.二、语言知识运用（共35小题，满分25分）(一)完形填空（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）阅读短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
