In England nobody under eighteen years old is allowed to drink in a bar(酒吧). Mr. Thompson often went to a bar near his house. But he never took his son, Tom, because he was too young.

Then Mr. Thompson said to his son, “Now, Tom, I want to teach you a useful lesson. How do you know when you’ve had enough? Well, I’ll tell you. Did you see those two lights at the end of the bar? When they seem to become four, you’ve had enough and should go home.”
“But, Dad,”said Tom,“I can only see one light at the end of the bar.”

B
Every morning my father buys a newspaper on his way to work. Every evening my mother looks through magazines at home. And every night, I look at the posters with photos of David Beckham and Yao Ming on my bedroom wall before I go to sleep. Can we imagine life without paper or print?
Paper was first created about 2,000 years ago, and has been made from silk, cotton, bamboo, and, since the 19th century, from wood. People learned to write words on paper to make a book. But in those days，books could only be produced one at a time by hand. As a result，they were expensive and rare. And because there weren’t many books, few people learned to read.
Then printing was invented in China. When printing was developed greatly at the beginning of the 11th century, books could be produced more quickly and cheaply. As a result, more people learned to read. After that，knowledge and ideas spread quickly.
Today information can be received online, downloaded from the Internet rather than found in books, and information can be kept on CD-ROMs or machines such as MP3 players.
Computers are already used in classrooms, and newspapers and magazines can already be read online. So will books be replaced by computers one day? No, I don’t think the Yao Ming poster on my bedroom wall will ever be replaced by a computer two metres high!
51.What does the writer do before he goes to sleep?
A.He reads books. B.He reads newspapers.
C.He looks through magazines. D.He looks at the posters on the wall.
52.When was paper first created?
A.About 2,000 years ago. B.In the 19th century.
C.About 1,000 years ago. D.In the 11th century.
53.Why were books expensive and rare before the invention of printing?
A.People could not read.
B.People could not write words on paper.
C.People could not find silk, cotton or bamboo.
D.People could only produce books one at a time by hand.
54.What happened after books became cheaper?
A.People didn’t want to buy books.
B.Printing was invented in China.
C.Knowledge and ideas spread quickly.
D.The Internet was introduced to people soon.
55.What is the writer’s opinion about books and computers?

外研版八年級(jí)英語(yǔ)下期中試卷參考答案

26.C 本題考查動(dòng)詞的時(shí)態(tài)。由saw和時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)yesterday可知第一句為一般過(guò)去時(shí)態(tài);第二句中at that moment是指“昨天的那個(gè)時(shí)候”，故應(yīng)用過(guò)去進(jìn)行時(shí)態(tài)。句意：我昨天在圖書館看見他了。那時(shí)他正在看書。
27.A 本題考查動(dòng)詞短語(yǔ)含義辨析。put on“穿上”;turn on“打開”;put up“舉起”;give up“放棄”。由句意“外邊很冷，出去之前穿上毛衣”可知此處用put on。故選A。

31.B 本題考查被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)和主謂一致。由于speak和languages之間是動(dòng)賓關(guān)系，故此題應(yīng)使用被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)，可排除A、C兩項(xiàng)。languages為復(fù)數(shù)，再排除D項(xiàng)，故選B。
32.C 本題考查情態(tài)動(dòng)詞。needn’t“不必”;must“必須”;might“可能”;mustn’t“禁止，不準(zhǔn)”。由“we’re not sure”可知，答話人對(duì)他們的安排尚不確定，應(yīng)用might表示可能性的推測(cè)。故選C。

34.A 本題考查定語(yǔ)從句。句意為“昨天晚上我們看的電影棒極了”。先行詞movie指“物”，且關(guān)系詞在定語(yǔ)從句中作saw的賓語(yǔ)，故用關(guān)系代詞that或which。故選A。
35.D 本題考查情景交際。good luck“祝你好運(yùn)”;not at all“一點(diǎn)也不”;good idea“好主意”;congratulations“祝賀”。由前句“媽媽，我在攝影比賽中得了一等獎(jiǎng)”可知后句表示祝賀，應(yīng)選用Congratulations。故選D。
36. B chance“機(jī)會(huì)”，advice“建議”，excuse“借口”，business“商業(yè)”。根據(jù)文章最后一段的“So my advice is this: If a snake bites you, pick up your phone.”可知選B。
37.A suddenly“突然”，nearly“幾乎”，especially“尤其”，fortunately“幸運(yùn)地”。根據(jù)文章敘述，應(yīng)該是“突然”一條蛇出現(xiàn)了，咬到了杰克遜先生的手。
38.C 通過(guò)前文“...Henry Jackson was working in a restaurant kitchen.”可知事故應(yīng)該是發(fā)生在一家餐館里，所以本題選擇restaurant。
39.B 根據(jù)文意可知應(yīng)該是這條蛇爬出了箱子然后“藏”在了盤子底下，故選擇hid(hide“隱藏”)。其他三個(gè)hung(hang“懸掛”)，jumped(jump“跳”)，ran(run“跑”)均與文意不符。
40.D under“在……下面”，into“進(jìn)入”，towards“朝”。由常識(shí)可知，不可能將蛇扔到廚房下面，故排除under;根據(jù)前文我們知道這條蛇本來(lái)就在廚房里，所以throw...into“把……扔進(jìn)(廚房)”和throw...towards“把……扔向(廚房)”均不符合邏輯。throw it across the kitchen意為“把它從廚房的這一邊扔向那一邊”。
41.A stay cool意為“保持鎮(zhèn)靜”，說(shuō)的是杰克遜先生很鎮(zhèn)靜，還用手機(jī)給蛇拍了一張照片。其他形容詞noisy(吵鬧的)，pleased(滿意的)，afraid(害怕的)都與前面的anyway(無(wú)論如何)不符。
42.C 由前文的“bit him on the hand”可知，很快他的手開始疼，所以選hand。
43.D “醫(yī)生說(shuō)不清楚狀況”的原因是“他們不知道這條蛇的種類”，所以選because。
44.B send sth. to...意為“把某物送/寄到……”，此處是說(shuō)，醫(yī)生把杰克遜先生拍攝的照片發(fā)送到了倫敦動(dòng)物園。
45.C 從全文可知杰克遜先生給大家的建議是如果蛇咬了你，給它拍照。所以本題應(yīng)用it(指蛇)的形容詞性物主代詞its。
46. B 由短文中第一句“In England nobody under eighteen years old is allowed to drink in a bar(酒吧).”可知答案。
47. D 由短文中“Mr. Thompson often went to a bar near his house. But he never took his son, Tom, ...”可知答案。
48.A 由短文中“Then when Tom had his eighteenth birthday, Mr. Thompson took him to his usual bar for the first time.”可知答案。

51.D 根據(jù)文章第一段的And every night, I look at the posters...before I go to sleep.可知，作者在睡覺前會(huì)看臥室墻上的海報(bào)。故選D。
52.A 根據(jù)文章第二段的Paper was first created about 2,000 years ago ...可知，紙是在大約2000年前被發(fā)明的。故選A。
53.D 根據(jù)文章第二段的But in those days, books could only be produced one at a time by hand.可知，書昂貴又稀少是由于古代手工技術(shù)的限制。故選D。
54.C 根據(jù)文章第三段的After that, knowledge and ideas spread quickly.可知，自從書變得便宜之后，知識(shí)和思想的傳播變得迅速。故選C。
55.B 根據(jù)文章最后一段的No, I don’t think the Yao Ming poster on my bedroom wall will ever be replaced by a computer two metres high!可推知作者認(rèn)為書本不會(huì)被電腦所取代。故選B。
56.years’ many修飾復(fù)數(shù)名詞，根據(jù)句意知，此處用名詞所有格形式修飾名詞practice。
57.fortieth 此處表達(dá)“第四十個(gè)”生日，故用序數(shù)詞。
58.thinner 此句為“the+比較級(jí)…，the+比較級(jí)…”結(jié)構(gòu)，意為“越……越……”。注意thin的比較級(jí)需要雙寫n再加-er。句意為“山越高空氣越稀薄”。
59.truth to tell the truth為固定短語(yǔ)，意為“說(shuō)實(shí)話”。
60.unusual 根據(jù)后一分句句意“幾乎沒(méi)有人有機(jī)會(huì)做這件事”可推知前一分句句意為“這是一個(gè)不尋常的經(jīng)歷”。故填unusual。

One possible version:
Last summer vacation, my family and I went to Qingdao by train. There was always sunshine and fresh air, which made us so comfortable. We went to the seaside. The sea was as blue as the sky, and bathing in the sunshine on the beach was really an enjoyable thing. I also picked up a lot of colorful shells with my little sister. There we bought many interesting souvenirs. I was planning to send them to my friends. We ate many things there, such as fish, and prawns. They are very delicious. Then we lived in a clean and tidy hotel, and the price was not so expensive. I like Qingdao very much, and if I get a chance, I hope to come here again; it is such a beautiful and interesting place.
