（2022秋·江苏扬州·八年级统考期中）People are beginning looking for ways of getting around that didn’t involve crowded (拥挤的) forms of public transportation because of the corona virus pandemic (新冠病毒流行). Biking happens in the open air, and the chance of catching the corona virus while riding is very low, so biking is seen as a safe way to travel.
Biking has also grown more popular because it’s one of the few forms of exercise that has been allowed during many lockdowns. With gyms and fitness centers shut down, biking fills a need for many active people.
Families like biking, too. With schools closed, and kids unable to hang out with their friends, biking is a welcome activity. For many people, that’s the main point—biking is fun.
But bikes are also practical. Experts say that for people in some cities, nearly 60% of their trips can be made by bike. Many cities are seeing this as a chance to make their streets safer and greener. Cities around the world are adding miles of bike lanes to their streets to encourage (鼓励) biking.
New York says it will close off up to 100 miles of roads so they can be used by bikers and walkers. Oakland, California plans to close 74 miles to traffic—that’s almost 10% of the streets in the city.
Paris has set up over 400 miles of new bike lanes (车道). Cars and trucks have been banned from 75 miles of streets in Bogota, Colombia. In Milan Italy, 22 miles of its roads have been converted (转变).
Though many of these bike lanes are only being added for a short time, if changes in biking habits become permanent, they could seriously cut down car traffic and help make cities a lot greener.

（2022秋·江苏盐城·八年级统考期中）Ever wonder why you can go over a book again and again and still be lost when tested on what you read? It may be because you haven’t practiced remembering.
Remembering is a useful way to help us learn. Some of us remember best by listening; others by re-reading; and others learn best by using pictures and diagrams(图表). Schools try many of these different ways to help students “download” new information.
But a recent study from Purdue University, US, says that successful learning means being able to recall information at any moment.
“Our view is that learning is not about studying or getting knowledge ‘in memory’,” said Jeffrey Karpicke, the lead researcher. “Learning is about retrieving(寻回，检索). So it is important to make retrieval practice an important part of the learning process.
The research studied two groups of students. Both groups learned something from a text. One group made diagrams about the text. This method(方法) is called concept mapping. The other group put the text away after learning it and tried recalling the concepts from memory.
Then, both groups were tested on the information they had learned. Both groups scored well at recalling the learned information. However, when they were asked to return one week later, the group who made diagrams scored better than the group who did not use concept mapping. So by drawing concept maps, we are able to recall information far better, which will help us to study.
Our mind, just like our body, has to practice activities to become good at them.
5．Which of the following ways of remembering is NOT mentioned in Paragraph 2?
A．Listening. B．Re-reading. C．Speaking. D．Using pictures and diagrams.
6．According to Jeffrey Karpicke, learning is about ________.
A．studying knowledge from memory B．getting and recalling knowledge
C．practicing drawing photos and maps D．getting knowledge from memory
7．What does the underlined part “concept mapping” in Paragraph 5 mean in Chinese?
A．心电图 B．规划图 C．概念图 D．线路图
8．When both groups were tested on the information after one week, ________.
A．they both scored well at recalling information
B．the group using concept mapping scored better
C．one of the groups couldn’t remember the information
D．the group that didn’t use concept mapping scored better
9．What can we tell from the story?
A．Our minds need to practice to remember things.
B．Concept mapping is the only way to learn.
C．How to get knowledge by concept mapping.
D．It’s impossible to remember everything we’ve learned.

（2022秋·江苏南京·八年级校考期中）Success does not belong to a select group of individuals (个人). Success belongs to those who are willing to go after it and try their best to do what they have to do. Here are some useful practical ways for you if you want to be a success.
Desire. Desire is the strong wish to achieve a goal. Without desire, you have nothing. Before you can run with desire, your goal must be plain, clear, and it must also be exciting.
Show up. Seventy percent of success in life is showing up. You can’t have a best seller, if you have never written a book. You can’t get your dream job, if you’re afraid to turn in an application. Showing up doesn’t guarantee (保证) success, but if you don’t show up, you won’t succeed.
Fail. Unless you’re willing to have a try, fail unhappily, and have another try, success won’t happen.
To have success, you have to do things the right way, but often the only way to do something right is to first fail at it. As Thomas J. Watson said, a simple formula (公式) for success is to double your rate of failure (失败). So welcome failure, become a student of failure, learn from failure, and soon you will succeed.
Work harder. Everyone runs, but everyone is not willing to run for an hour every day. Success is not about doing what the common person can’t do. It’s about doing what the common person is unwilling to do. And on a deeper level, it’s about creating habits that the common person is unwilling to create. It’s the habit of doing things with excellence that causes success.
Enjoy the journey. Success is a journey, not a destination (终点). Success is not a certain car or a certain house or a certain happy marriage. Success is the enjoyment of the journey. You have to enjoy the journey.
Someone once said, “Unless you change how you are, you will always have what you’ve got.” You have to change, you will change, you will succeed.
10．Which of the following is NOT mentioned (提及) in achieving success?
A．Good education. B．Working hard. C．Strong desire. D．Enjoying failure.
11．What does the writer really mean by saying “Everyone runs, but everyone is not willing to run for an hour every day.”?
A．It’s not easy for people to develop their health.
B．Keeping working harder is necessary when you go after success.
C．You are sure to meet with some difficulty in your life.
D．Most people don’t want to spend too much time running.
12．What does the writer mostly want to tell us in the fourth paragraph?
A．Failure is the mother of success. B．Many hands make light work.
C．Every dog has its day. D．Actions speak louder than words.
13．Which of the following is TRUE about success according to the passage?
A．If you want to succeed, you should have special talents.
B．If you want to succeed, you’d better not show up.

D．Success is about doing what the common person can’t do.
14．The best title of the passage might be ________.
A．The Importance of Success B．The Meaning of Success
C．Success or Failure D．The Five Main Steps to Success

（2022秋·江苏苏州·八年级统考期中）Luca Gamberini has been scuba diving (戴水肺潜水) since he was a kid. His family owns a scuba company. For the past three summers, Luca has added gardening to his underwater activities. He helps run Nemo’s Garden, a project to grow plants in the sea.
From May to September, Luca and other divers are working on Nemo’s Garden in the Mediterranean Sea, 150 feet from the coast of Noli, Italy. Five large balloon-like objects, called biospheres (生物圈), hold plants such as beans and strawberries. The biospheres are filled with air and placed 20 feet below the water. “My father came up with the idea because he loves gardening very much,” Luca said.
According to Luca, the sea is a good place to grow plants because underwater temperatures (温度) are stable, changing little from day to night. The biospheres are like greenhouses. Inside the air-filled biospheres, fresh water keeps evaporating (蒸发), providing (提供) the plants with a good environment to grow in. “We have already seen the plants grow faster and better,” Luca says. “And there are fewer storms that can knock down the biospheres in the summertime.”
Luca hopes Nemo’s Garden will provide a new way of growing crops. “There is not enough land on the Earth,” he says. “And in many countries, bad conditions make it difficult for crops to grow.”
Though the project has just started, Nemo’s Garden has had success and is moving to different areas. “We’re going to try growing other plants,” Luca says. “We hope to set up biospheres around the world. There are many possibilities.”
22．Nemo’s Garden is a project to_________.
A．do scuba diving in the sea B．stop storms in the sea
C．make fresh water from the sea D．grow plants under the water

（2022秋·江苏苏州·八年级统考期中）

Owls are active mainly at night. They hunt when it’s dark. Most of us go for our work and study in the daytime. We almost never see owls, but many of us like these night birds very much. Our love for owls has a long history, and it’s in all cultures. No matter how far you go back, there is always some type of art work or story that includes an owl. These days, we can find owls on company logos, in children’s books, etc. So what makes owls so popular?
Some bird researchers believe owls’ popularity lies largely in their “cool” looks. In order to see clearly in the dark, owls have evolved (进化) to have large eyes. Unlike human eyes, their eyes are cylindrical (圆筒状的). So owls cannot roll (翻转) their eyes. Their heads have to do most of the rolling-around work. It’s also for this reason that owls can turn their heads almost around on their necks.
Owls also use sound to hunt. Their ears are lopsided (不平衡)—the left ear is a little higher than the right ear. A noise goes in one ear before it arrives in the other. This helps owls tell which direction a sound is coming from. To make their sense of hearing even better, the owl’s whole face acts like a satellite dish (圆盘式卫星接收器) for sound waves. Their beaks (鸟喙) are very small so that they won’t get in the way.
Thanks to such unusual looks and abilities, owls became known as strange and wonderful animals. For a long time, people made up lots of myths (神话) about them. Some have described owls as the goddess of wisdom. Some say owls are witches (女巫) in disguise (伪装). These stories have made more people become interested in owls and made them become more popular!
26．According to Paragraph 2, owls cannot roll their eyes because ________.
A．their eyes are too large B．their heads are too big
C．their necks are too short D．their eyes are cylindrical
27．According to Paragraph 3, where are owl’s ears usually located (位于)?

A．①② B．③④ C．①④ D．②③
28．Which of the following is NOT the reason that owls have a good sense of hearing?
A．Theirs ears are lopsided.
B．Their beaks are very small.
C．Their faces are like satellite dishes.
D．They turn their heads almost around on their necks.
29．The underlined word “them” in the last paragraph refers to (指) ________.
A．myths B．owls C．looks D．abilities

（2022秋·江苏盐城·八年级统考期中）Chinese has a history of thousands of years. But Pinyin doesn't. It tells people how to pronounce(发音) Chinese words. This year, Pinyin turns 62 years old.
In 1958, Chinese linguist(语言学家) Zhou Youguang and his team made Pinyin. Before that, Chinese people used many other ways to show how to pronounce Chinese words. But these ways are not as easy to use as Pinyin. Because of Pinyin, more people learn how to read.
Pinyin is a big part of our daily life. We learn to speak Putonghua with the help of Pinyin. We write Chinese characters on computers by using Pinyin.
Pinyin is young. But it is now very popular outside China. It is becoming a bridge between China and the world. Many people around the world start to learn Chinese by learning Pinyin. You might say “nihao” to mean “hello” to a foreign friend.
People are using Pinyin more often than before. For example, fewer foreigners use “dumplings”. They like to use “jiaozi”. And “mantou” is for “steamed-bun”. The Oxford English Dictionary (《牛津英语词典》) has more than 100 Chinese words in Pinyin, such as zhongguomeng for “Chinese dream”, and wanggou for “online shopping”.
36．Chinese people began to use Pinyin ________.
A．hundreds of years ago B．thousands of years ago
C．62 years ago D．a few years ago

（2021秋·江苏常州·八年级校考期中）Rain forests are located（位于）around the equator（赤道）. It is very warm around the equator. The rain forest stays at 75° F—80° F all year round. The rain forests are wet! Very wet! In fact, rain forests can get between 160 and 300 inches of rain each year. Because the rain forests are always warm and wet, plants grow all year long. The rain forest is home to more plants and trees than any other location in the world!
Count on Me, and I’ll Count on You
In the rain forest, plants, animals, and people need one another to live. Almost everything that falls to the forest floor is reused. When plants and animals die, they break down and feed living plants. In turn, those plants give food and shelter（庇护所）to people, animals, and other plants. Water in the rain forest is also reused. It evaporates（蒸发）, forms clouds, and then falls back to Earth as rain.
Gifts from the Rain Forest
The rain forests may seem very far away, but you use something from them every day! For example, do you like chocolate? How about chewing gum?
Thank the rain forests! Rain forests are a huge source（来源）of food. Fruits such as mangoes and bananas come from the rain forests. So do many nuts, spices, and vegetables. Many medicines also come from the rain forests. One-fifth of the world’s fresh water is in the Amazon rain forest. The rain forests affect（影响）rainfall, which in turn affects climate（气候）around the world.

（2021秋·江苏扬州·八年级校考期中）Sitting in front of the television may be relaxing, but spending too much time in front of it may take years off your life. Watching less television may help you live a much longer life.
Australian researchers surveyed more than 11,000 people over the age of 25. Their study showed that if people watched TV for six hours a day, they lived about 4.8 years less than those who didn’t watch any television. Also, people who are over the age of 25 lose 22 minutes of life for each hour of TV that they watch.
Sitting in front of the television isn’t healthy. The more TV you watch, the less exercise you’ll get. And the less exercise you get, the more likely(有可能的) it is that you’ll get sick.
Lennert Veerman, the researcher who led the study, says watching too much TV will be bad for people’s life expectancies(预期寿命), even for people who have a good diet. He thinks it’s reasonable for doctors to start asking their patients about how much TV they watch, as it can be an indicator(指标) of someone’s overall health.
Therefore, Veerman has called on people to turn off the TV and get off the sofa to get some exercise. “Exercise is good,” he said. “Even light activity is good for health.”
43．Australian researchers did a study on ________.
A．how much time people spend watching TV
B．what people usually do to relax
C．how watching TV can affect(影响) people’s life expectancies
D．what people should do to lengthen their lives

Dada Bubble Gum(泡泡糖)
Almost all the kids like bubble gum. It’s fun to eat bubble gum. Kids often get together to see who gets the biggest bubble. I still remember my sister once blew a big bubble and then it broke, covering her face with gum! I usually bought Dada Bubble Gum from the small stores near my home. It was cheap. I could get two for one yuan.
Sugar Figure(糖人)
You could always find people making sugar figures around the school in the old days. First, the maker would take a little maltose(麦芽糖) with a small spoon, using his hands to make animals, such as the Monkey King, the White Dragon, and so on. It was not expensive, only one yuan for one. If one child bought a sugar figure, many other children would come around him.
Baby Face Ice Cream
We like to call it snowman icecream better. It tasted very delicious. It was quite expensive. I remember the price was two yuan for each piece. That was not easy for me to buy one piece those days. Each time I got one, the happiness would stay for a few days.
Malt Sugar Candy

（2021秋·江苏宿迁·八年级统考期中）If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they will become weak. When you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way.
When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.
If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault(过错). But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents may be blamed(责 备), and few of us know that it is just his own fault. Have you ever found that some people can’t read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write and they have to remember things; they cannot write them down in a small notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories, so their memory is being exercised the whole time.
So if you want to have a good memory, try to practise remembering things as those with good memories do.
51．Someone can’t have a good memory if ________.
A．he can’t read or write
B．he doesn’t use his memory often
C．his parents haven’t a good memory
D．he doesn’t use his arms or legs for some time

A．you can’t use them any more
B．they will become stronger

D．they become weak and won’t become strong until you use them again
53．Some people can’t read or write , but why do they usually have better memories?
A．Because they have to remember days, numbers.
B．Because their parents ask them to do so.
C．Because their memory is being exercised the whole time.
D．Because they how to use their arms or legs.
54．Which of the following is TRUE ?

The oil paper umbrella is a traditional (传统的) Chinese handicraft (手工艺品). It has a history of over 1, 000 years in China. In early Tang Dynasty, it was brought to Japan and Korea, so it was called the “Tang Umbrella”. Later oil paper umbrellas were brought to some other countries, such as Vietnam, Thailand and Laos, and each had its own style. However, as steel-ribbed (钢骨的) umbrellas came out in the last century, the hand-made oil paper umbrellas became less used in daily life. They were turned into handicrafts for decorating things.
Yuhang in Hangzhou is famous for making oil paper umbrellas for more than 230 years. They are mainly made of paper, bamboo, a coating (涂层) of Tung oil. They need to take more than 70 steps to make, including making bamboo ribs, pasting (粘贴) paper and choosing painting designs. It takes at least a week to make per umbrella. In 2008, these umbrellas were added to Intangible Cultural Heritage List (非物质文化遗产名录) of China.
A young man called Liu Weixue learned the traditional art of making Yuhang oil paper umbrellas from his grandfather. “I want to bring the art to life.” Liu said. He made the umbrellas better to meet the needs of young people. As the traditional paper was easy to break, he started to use a kind of thicker paper. In a test, his umbrellas were opened and closed for 1, 000 times without breaking. He used a kind of lighter bamboo to make the umbrellas weigh less.
Now Liu hopes the art can be passed on. He goes to local schools to teach students. He also takes part in activities in different places to show the art to more people.

（2022秋·江苏南京·八年级统考期中）Success does not belong to a select group of individuals(个人). Success belongs to those who are willing to go after it and try their best to do what they have to do. Here are some useful practical ways for you if you want to be a success.
Desire. Desire is the strong wish to achieve a goal. Without desire you have nothing. Before you can run with desire, your goal must be plain, clear, and it must also be exciting.
Show up. Seventy percent of success in life is showing up. You can’t have a best seller, if you have never written a book. You can’t get your dream job, if you’re afraid to turn in an application. Showing up doesn’t guarantee(保证) success, but if you don’t show up, you won’t succeed.
Fail. Unless you’re willing to have a try, fail unhappily, and have another try, success won’t happen. To have success you have to do things the right way, but often the only way to do something right is to first fail at it. As Thomas J. Watson said, a simple formula（公式）for success is to double your rate of failure (失败). So welcome failure, become a student of failure, learn from failure, and soon you will succeed.
Work Harder. Everyone runs, but everyone is not willing to run for an hour every day. Success is not about doing what the common person can’t do. It’s about doing what the common person is unwilling to do. And on a deeper level, it’s about creating habits that the common person is unwilling to create. It’s the habit of doing things with excellence that causes success.
Enjoy the Journey. Success is a journey, not a destination(终点). Success is not a certain car or a certain house or a certain happy marriage. Success is the enjoyment of the journey. You have to enjoy the journey.
Someone once said, “Unless you change how you are, you will always have what you’ve got.” You have to change…you will change, you will succeed.
63．Which of the following is NOT mentioned in achieving success?
A．Working hard. B．Good education.
C．Strong desire. D．Enjoying failure.
64．What does the writer really mean by saying “Everyone runs, but everyone is not willing to run for an hour every day.” ?
A．It’s not easy for people to develop their health.
B．You are sure to meet with some difficulty in your life.
C．Keeping working harder is necessary when you go after success.
D．Most people don’t want to spend too much time running.
65．What does the writer mostly want to tell us in the fourth paragraph?
A．Failure is the mother of success.
B．Many hands make light work.
C．Every dog has its day.
D．Actions speak louder than words.
66．Which of the following is TRUE about success according to the passage?
A．If you want to succeed, you should have special talents.
B．If you want to succeed, you’d better not show up.
C．Success is about doing what the common person can’t do.
D．Success means the enjoyment of your gain or loss on the journey.
67．The best title of the passage might be_______________.
A．The Importance of Success
B．The Meaning of Success

D．The Five Main Steps to Success

（2021秋·江苏淮安·八年级统考期中）Where does your meat come from? Maybe a cow, pig or chicken. Did you know that we can make “meat” out of plants as well?
Plant-based meat is not real meat, but looks and tastes like the real thing. It’s made out of plants like potatoes and peas. It’s getting more popular around the world these days.

（2021秋·江苏泰州·八年级统考期中）Believe it or not, soon computers and other machines will be able to remember you by looking at your eyes! The programme (程序) works because everyone’s eyes are different. So in the future you won’t have to remember any numbers when you want to use a machine or take money out of a bank. You’ll just look at the machine and it will be able to tell that it’s you.
In some shops and banks in the USA, Britain, Spain, Italy and Turkey, people have tested this kind of eye-recognition (眼睛识别) programme already. Soon, this technology (技术) may take the place of (代替) all other ways of finding out who people are.

Eye-recognition is better than other kinds because your eyes don’t change as you get older, or get dirty like hands or fingers. And even twins have different eyes, so the programme can be up to (高达) 94% correct. However, some other programmes may only be 51% correct now. In Britain, 91% people say that they like the idea of eye-recognition.

（2021秋·江苏泰州·八年级统考期中）As young students, you have many dreams. These dreams can be very big, such as winning the Nobel Prize. They can also be small, such as becoming one of the best students in your class.
Once you find a dream, what do you do with (处理) it? Do you ever try to make your dreams real? Andrew Matthews, an Australian writer, tells us that making your dreams real is life’s biggest challenge (挑战). You may think you’re not very good at some school subjects, or that it’s impossible for you to become a writer. Those kinds of ideas stop you from realizing (实现) your dream.
In fact (事实上), everyone can realize his dream. The first thing you must do is to remember what your dream is. Don’t let it leave your heart. Keep telling yourself what you want every day and then your dream will come true faster. You should know that a big dream is, in fact, made up of (由……组成) many small dreams.
You must also never give up your dream. There will be difficulties on the road to your dreams. But the biggest difficulty comes from yourself. You need to decide what is the most important.
