河北省衡水市景县2019-2020学年八年级下学期英语期中检测卷(含听力音频)

阅读A、B、C、D四篇材料,然后从各小题所给的四个选项中选出最佳选项。

    What can one dollar help us with? Believe it or not, an 18-year-old American girl in Florida, got a lot of money with only one dollar.

    Not long ago, the girl named Daniela Leon Ruz used one dollar to buy a lottery ticket (彩票) called ¥500 A Week For Life. Usually in this game the odds (可能性) of winning the top prize are one-in-six million. But to her surprise, she was lucky to win such a top prize just after buying the lottery once. She spent only one dollar!

    However, she didn't take the whole prize at a time. She chose to take ¥26000 each year. It was an advisable idea and some lottery experts thought this way would help her get a better use of the money.

    What will Daniela do with the money? Maybe she'll follow another girl named Rosa Dominguez from California who ever won the prize twice in a month and buy some more lottery tickets. Or she might use the money to travel around the world or do something interesting. Anyway, she must be happy and excited about all her plans!

(1)、How did Daniela feel when she won the prize?
A、She felt surprised. B、She felt worried. C、She felt she was the richest. D、She felt she was common.
(2)、The underlined word "advisable" probably means ___________ in English.

(3)、What's the main idea of the passage?
A、People should make good use of their money. B、An American girl is interested in buying lottery ticket. C、We can use a little money to win a lot in lottery game. D、An American girl was lucky to win the top prize with only ¥1.

Our family had lived in Los Angeles for two weeks. "LA is not a bad place, Sonny." Dad said. But I didn't like the city. I missed* Michigan. I missed my old friends and even the trees there.

That afternoon, I went out to find a basketball court*. Dad said there was one around, but it was twenty-minutes' walk away! When I got there, I saw three children playing some kind of one-on-one*. Two of them were taller than me, and one was about my size.

The short boy played well, but the other two were too tall for him. One-on-one wasn't his game. He needed someone to pass to. I went down to the other basket and played alone. Then I heard someone calling me. It was the short boy.

"I'm Louie. Are you coming to join us? Small against* tall."

"Sounds good." I thought for some time. "I'm Sonny."

Louie introduced the other two boys. They were Chuck and David. We nodded to each other and started the game. Like I said, Louie really was a good player. He just needed someone to pass to. Soon, Chuck and David found    ▲   . The score was always close. Both teams had to try our best. In the end, Louie and I didn't win the game, but we made it interesting.

A little later, I saw Dad come. I said goodbye to them.

"Coming back tomorrow?" asked Louie.

"Yeah."

The sun was going down behind pink and orange clouds. On the way back home, Dad said, "Who said Los Angeles doesn't have great sunsets*?"

"LA is not a bad place." I said. Now, it could be home.
