2024-2025学年（下）吴忠八年级质量检测英语

1、   Some westerners think the ways of education in many Chinese families are hard to understand. Here are some examples.

In China, many children are taken care of by their grandparents because their parents are busy. 1.但是父母应该经常和孩子待在一起并与他们交谈。

2. Parents don't pay attention to children's rights. Parents should knock at the door before they go into the room of their children. They shouldn't look through their children's things before they agree. Children who are not respected (尊重) also do not know how to respect others' rights (权利).

3. Parents often compare their children with others. Most Chinese parents want their children to be successful, because it can save the parents' face. Parents often say, "Your best friend studies so hard. He has already got good grades and lots of big prizes. "This is the worst thing. It will only hurt their children's feelings.

4. Many children have to do what their parents expect, though they do not like it. For example, parents ask their children to learn to play the piano or go to study in foreign countries. Children should decide these themselves.

5.他们学习越努力，就会有更好的成绩。Many parents think school performance is everything. In fact, the integrated (综合的) ability is so important that it will influence children all their lives.

However, children should try to understand their parents. Children don't have to be perfect, and parents don't have to be perfect, either. It's important to understand and respect each other.

24、When we first moved here, we didn’t have a garden. Mike and I talked about making a large vegetable garden somewhere in our yard, but we couldn’t agree on where. Before we went ahead and dug up the grass we spent some time thinking about where it would work best. At last, we chose an old sandbox (沙坑) in our front yard to become our garden.

We dreamed about a lively garden with lots of vegetables. We asked many people what we should do to turn this sandbox into a space, then plants can grow in it. And they gave us lots of ideas. My sister was the most knowledgeable, so we listened mostly to her. At first, Mike made a wood fence (栅栏) and I painted it with the kids. We chose a darker colour because it would fit our light grey house.

Next, Mike dug 17 holes. Then we filled them with soil (土壤). It was still too cold to plant anything, so for days I just stared out the window at these holes. To me, it looked much too untidy. I advised to fill those holes back and dig new ones. This time we ended up with 10. Much better.

Over the next few weeks, I worked on getting everything planted in my garden. I started by planting green onion. But I was too excited and planted it too early. Right away it was clear that it wasn’t going to survive. I had to give it up and try something else. Then my next door neighbour gave me red roses to put in my garden. A few days later we went to a greenhouse and came back not with green onion but peppers, tomatoes and so on. Clearly the vegetable and flower garden was slowly becoming our dream garden. Oh well!

I love the way it turned out. This garden will always remind me of my sister.

【1】When the writer first arrived at her new house, she ________.

A．had a large flower garden

B．dug up the grass in her yard

C．talked about making a sandbox

D．wanted a garden with vegetables

【2】Why did the writer suggest filling the first 17 holes back?

A．Because she listened to her sister.

B．Because the weather was too hot.

C．Because the garden looked like a mess.

D．Because the kids could dig better ones.

【3】Which one is the right order of building the garden according to the passage?

a. We built the fence and painted it.

b. We collected much others’ advice.

c. We prepared the plants that we wanted.

d. We decided on the place of the garden.

e. We dug several holes and filled them with soil.

A．b-d-a-e-c

B．d-b-a-e-c

C．d-e-c-a-b

D．b-a-d-e-c

25、   The famous R【1】 writer Lev Tolstory (托尔斯泰) once said, “ Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing h【2】.”

He was right. We always plan to do or dream of doing something great so that we can change the world .For example, we hate p【3】, so we try to find new energy  r【4】 to keep the environment clean. H【5】, we still litter on the ground in our lives. Also, we are not satisfied with the traffic, so we plan to build more highways to stop it. But in fact, the main reason for it is that many people don't f【6】 the traffic rules.

Now,lots of students always think their homework is very difficult and they find it hard to pass exams. In their e【7】 the problems on papers are too difficult. But actually, the real r【8】 is that they don’t study hard. They never think about changing their attitudes t【9】 study or working hard on their lessons.

In my opinion, before we decide to change the world, we should change ourselves first. As common people, it is not easy for us to change the world, but we can easily give up our bad habits, such as littering, breaking traffic rules and always c【10】 about how difficult the exam is. If we can do that, we'll be strong enough to change the world some day and make it!
