吉林省长春市外国语学校2018-2019学年八年级下学期英语开学考试试卷

根据短文内容,判断正(T)、误(F)。

    Owls live in almost every country in the world. Most owls don't sleep at night. When they fly, you can't hear them. They are very quiet. Owls are good at hunting(捕猎). They eat a lot of things such as mice, snakes, small birds and even fish. Owls have very good hearing. That helps them to hunt well in dark places. Their eyes are special. Both of their eyes face front. They can see very far away. There are facial disks(面盘) around their eyes. These facial disks can help with their hearing. Owls can turn their heads 270°. That helps them see what's going on all around them.

    Maybe because owls look a little different and have special life habits. There are a lot of stories about them. Some cultures believe that owls are very clever and some cultures think owls may bring bad luck to people. In fact, owls are really good friends of people. They eat lots of mice every year. That helps save a lot of food for people. But the number of owls in the world is becoming smaller and smaller because of people's activities. Now owls are protected by law(法律) in many places of the world. For example, in some places, people can't keep an owl as a pet at home.

(1)、Owls can fly quietly.
(2)、Good hearing helps owls hunt well in dark places.
(3)、Facial disks help owls see what's going on all around them.
(4)、All the people around the world like owls.
(5)、In fact, owls are people's good friends.

根据短文内容,选择最恰当的答案

    The koala is unique (独特的) to Australia and is an important symbol of the country. The koala is found in open eucalypt (桉树) forests in south-east Queensland. Even if it is called koala bear, this animal has nothing to do with the actual bear. Koalas have thick fur and large cars.

    Their broad, flat nose makes them look cute, similar to teddy bears. In fact koalas aren't cute. They have sharp teeth and very sharp claws (爪)! Koalas are marsupials (有袋类). This means the mother carries her baby in a pocket while it develops, similar to a kangaroo. The baby koala lives in its mother's pocket for the first six months of its life.

    The name “koala” comes from a native Australian word that means “no drink”. The koalas get almost all their water from the eucalyptus leaves they eat. That's where they get their food too.

    Koalas eat only eucalyptus leaves. The eucalyptus trees are where the koalas live, it's also where they sleep. Koalas sleep about nineteen hours a day!

    Why do they sleep so much? Some people think it's because they're lazy. But koalas aren't lazy. They sleep so much because there isn't much nutrition (营养) in eucalyptus leaves. Koalas store hardly any fat, so they must save their energy. One way to do this is to move slowly and sleep a lot. After a day of sleeping they like to move around and eat just after sunset. They live alone most of the time. Koalas are very protective of their trees. If a koala sees another koala eating in its favorite tree, it might tell the other koala to leave by “barking” at it. Koalas do “talk” to each other.

    Besides barks, the males make a deep grunting (呼噜的) sound.

    The mothers and babies talk in soft clicking sounds. If they get scared they may scream like a baby. The koala is also an excellent swimmer.

    They are able to cross rivers to escape from heavy flooding (泛滥).

Keep Shanghai Shining like a Pearl(如何让上海成为东方明珠)

I love Shanghai. I think I fell in love with the city even b{#blank#}1{#/blank#}I came here. To the Western mind, Shanghai was considered both strange and beautiful, it was known as" the city of adventures" and "the Pearl of the East" . And when I arrived, I wasn't disappointed. I could feel the energy of his people as I w{#blank#}2{#/blank#} the city streets and as I strolled(漫步) along the Bund admiring the bright lights of Pudong, the city really did shine like a beautiful pearl.

That was many years ago, but my love for Shanghai has grown not less but more, the city has n{#blank#}3{#/blank#} stopped improving, and it is now ranked(按名次排列)among the ten best cities in the world. And the Shanghai government hopes to make it best city in the world by 2035. But w{#blank#}4{#/blank#} makes a city the "best"?

First of all, it has to have a good economy, it also has to be a healthy place with a good e{#blank#}5{#/blank#}. And the third, it has to be a place where people can relax and have fun. Most of all, a great city has to have great people.

Shanghai has always been known for its openness and friendliness, I have felt this warmth from

the first day I arrived, I was so easy to meet people and communicate with them, even though I couldn't speak Chinese.

Shanghai is great and will continue to be great, but some of that greatness depends on you, you will have to carry on the city's t{#blank#}6{#/blank#}of openness and friendliness, and your love and energy will be needed to keep Shanghai shining like a pearl.
