（2022春·江苏镇江·八年级统考期末）I had an accident with my plane in the Desert of Sahara six years ago. Something was broken in my engine (引擎). The first night, I went to sleep on the sand, a thousand miles from any human living area. Thus you can imagine my amazement, at sunrise, when I was awakened by a strange little voice.
It said, “If you please—draw me a sheep!”
“What?”
“Draw me a sheep!”
I stared at him in surprise. I had been trapped in the desert a thousand miles from any living area. And yet my little man seemed neither to be lost among the sands, nor to be hungry or thirsty or full of fear. I said to him, “But—what are you doing here?”
And in answer he repeated, very slowly, “If you please—draw me a sheep…”
Then I remembered how my studies had been all about history, grammar, geography and so on, and that grown-ups discouraged me in my painter’s career when I was six years old. I never learned to draw anything, except boas (蟒蛇) from the outside and boas from the inside.
He answered me, “That doesn’t matter. Draw me a sheep.”
But I had never drawn a sheep. So I drew for him one of the two pictures I had drawn so often. It was that of the boa from the outside. “No, no, no! I do not want an elephant inside a boa. A boa is a very dangerous creature, and an elephant is very large and heavy. What I need is a sheep.”
So then I made a drawing.
He looked at it carefully, then he said, “No. This sheep is already very sickly. Make me another.”
So I made another drawing.
My friend smiled gently. “You see yourself,” he said, “that this is not a sheep. This is a ram (公羊). It has horns (角).”
So then I did my drawing over once more.
But it was rejected too, just like the others. “This one is too old. I want a sheep that will live a long time.”
By this time my patience was exhausted, because I was in a hurry to start taking my engine apart. I tossed (挥动) off this drawing.
“This is only his box. The sheep you asked for is inside.”
“That is exactly the way I wanted it! Do you think that this sheep will have to have a great deal of grass?”
“Why?”
“Because where I live everything is very small...”
“There will surely be enough grass for him,” I said, “It is a very small sheep that I have given to you.”
He bent his head over the drawing, “Not so small that—Look! He has gone to sleep...”
And that is now I made the acquaintance (认识) of the little prince.
(Adapted from Little Prince)

（2022春·江苏镇江·八年级统考期末）COVID-19 is still spreading around the planet. This year’s Earth Day focuses on climate (气候) change. Scientists agree that climate change is causing harm to the world in the form of bad weather and natural disasters. Will climate change lead to more disease outbreaks in the future?
The answer is a possible “yes”. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), studies have shown that a warming Earth is causing more infectious (传染性的) diseases.
Malaria (疟疾), a serious and sometimes deadly disease, is mainly spread by mosquitoes (蚊子). Climate change results in more heat waves and floods, which provide perfect conditions for mosquitoes to breed (繁殖). In India, for example, the warmer climate has increased the risk by about five times. Studies also suggest that global increases in temperature will drive disease—carrying insects from the equator (赤道) to the north. This means some diseases like malaria or dengue fever (登革热) may move into new areas, such as Europe.
Deforestation (滥伐森林), a major cause of climate change, has something to do with infectious diseases, according to Nature. In places such as Central and West Africa, there have been serious deforestation and losses of living areas for bats (蝙蝠). These bats have started living closer to humans, which increases the possibility of Ebola (埃博拉) outbreaks.
As ice keeps melting (融化) into water, diseases that lie under the ice may also come back. In 2016, a city in northern Russia saw an outbreak of anthrax (炭疽) during a heat wave. Scientists believe the virus came out from the frozen soil because of rising temperatures. About 90 people were infected, the New York Times reported.
What can we do to “cool” Earth?
Governments can
²Put a tax (税) or fee on carbon emissions.
²Advise using clean energy, such as wind and sun energy.
²Make policies and laws to protect the environment.
You can
²Turn off electronic devices, such as computers and TVs when you aren’t using them.
²Take a walk, ride a bike or take public transportation as much as you can.
²Buy products that are energy-efficient.
7．What kind of harm may be caused by climate change?
A．Deforestation. B．Energy shortage. C．Transportation cost. D．Bad weather and natural disasters.
8．What does the underline word “This” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A．The rising temperatures help mosquitoes to breed. B．Serious diseases can only stay alive in northern areas.
C．Insects help spread some serious diseases to the north. D．High temperatures make a difference to the looks of insects.
9．What is TRUE according to the passage?
A．An outbreak of anthrax resulted from the frozen soil. B．The climate change does little harm to the people’s health.
C．Bats act as a way for diseases to spread because of the deforestation. D．This year’s Earth Day advises people to stop the spread of the diseases.
10．The purpose of this article is to________.
A．explain the possible diseases under the warmer climate B．introduce how to save energy and protect the environment
C．express the writer’s ideas about what leads to the climate change D．warn people of diseases the warmer climate brings and offer some advice

（2022春·江苏苏州·八年级期末）There are at least 3,000 miles (about 4,828 km) of waterways in Britain. On these canals (运河) and rivers, there are over 30,000 "houseboats"--boats that people use as homes. Around 10,000 of them are located in London.
Houseboat communities are made up of people who are looking for a slower way of life and who want to be in touch with nature.
Living on the water sounds romantic (浪漫的), but it is also hard work. There are daily things that need to be done, like bringing fuel (燃料) and water on board and dealing with "waste" water from the kitchen sink, shower and toilet. In winter, living on a boat can be very cold and there is always a feeling of being damp(潮湿的). Of course, most boats are quite small inside, so you don't have much space, especially if you are a couple, family or group of friends.
However, the number of people living on Britain's waterways has increased by around 50 percent over the past ten years. This is not only because they like the idea of life on water but also because it is much cheaper to buy or rent (租) a boat than a flat or a house.
There is a great sense of community on the waterways. Houseboat neighbours often become friends for life. This is quite a different story from people who live in flats or houses and may hardly know the people next door at all.
11．What can we know about houseboats in Britain from the passage?
A．There are about 40,000 houseboats in total. B．They are boats that are used as homes.
C．They are houses in the shape of boats. D．They are designed for traveling on water.
12．Why do people live in houseboats?
A．They want to get away from nature. B．They need to make a living by fishing.
C．They prefer a slower way of life. D．They enjoy living an faster life on water.
13．What does paragraph 3 mainly tell us about?
A．The best season to live on a boat. B．Tips for living on a houseboat.
C．The costs of living on water. D．The difficulties of living on the water.
14．Why are more people choosing to live on waterways?
A．Because it costs less than living in a house or flat.
B．Because the government is promoting (推进) this idea.
C．Because they are afraid of living in cities.
D．Because it provides a bad sense of community

（2022春·江苏苏州·八年级期末）Do you love swimming? How about riding a bike? Does running make you happy? Have you ever combined (混合) the three activities into one race? If you have, then you know all about the triathlon (铁人三项).
In February 1974, a group of sports officials gathered in a bar in the Hawaiian Islands to argue: which sports in the world is the most exciting and challenging to test a person's will and strength? Some said it was football, some said it was swimming across the sea, and some said it was long-distance cycling, mountaineering marathons and so on. They expressed their opinions and argued. In the end, Brigadier General John Collins said: who can swim 3.8 kilometers in the rough (风大浪急的) sea in one day, ride a bicycle 180 kilometers around the island, and finally run the 42.195 kilometers Honolulu Marathon. Collins's idea was supported by everyone, so 15 people took part in the game the next day, including one female player. As a result, the race was completed. Such a new type of sports was born in this adventurous situation.
After the birth of the Triathlon in Hawaii, it was at first popular only in Hawaii and California, and gradually spread widely in Australia, New, Zealand, Spain, France, the United Kingdom, Japan, and China.

The modern triathlon got its start in America in the 1970s. It first appeared in Olympic history at the 2000 Sydney Olympics. The Olympic triathlon consists of (由……组成) a 1.5- kilometer swim, a 40-kilometer bike ride and a 10-kilometer run.
If you're not ready for an Olympic triathlon, don't worry. Triathlons come in different lengths. There are mini triathlons designed for beginners. They consists of a 0.8-kilometer swim, a 24.1-kilometer bike ride and a 4.8- kilometer run. Do you want to have a try?

The Kiwi key ring you are looking for is located at Kiwi Technology, Port Prime.
Jan stares at the computer screen. “Oh, no!” she thinks, “It’s not working.” But then she thinks, “Maybe Tom works at Kiwi.” She goes downstairs and finds her mum and dad having coffee in the kitchen.
“Mum? Dad? Is there anyone at Kiwi called Tom?” Her mum looks at dad, surprised by the question.
“Why…yes. There are a few people called Tom working there.”
“There’s Tom Bradley in our department… and Thomas Duncan in accounts… and Tom Green, of course.”
“Who’s Tom Green?” Jan asks.
“Michael Green’s father, you know, the boy in your class at school.”
Jan can see Michael smiling at her from the back of the classroom and suddenly there’s something familiar about his face.
“Yes, it’s him!”
“Michael Green?”

（2022春·江苏苏州·八年级校考期末）“Colour, colour, colour!” are the words of the artist Eric Carle. Eric is like the king in the world of children’s books. He has written over 70 children’s books. His most famous book The Very Hungry Caterpillar, is common on children’s bookshelves all over the world. What most people don’t know is that Eric also makes art for adults, which is called “ArtArt”. People didn’t know about it, because he didn’t show it to the public until he was 84 years old!
Like Eric’s children’s books, his “ArtArt” is full of bright and clear colour. He says that he loves colour so much because he missed it during the war in Germany. Eric was born in New York in 1929, but moved to Germany with his family when he was 6. When he was 10, World War II began. He noticed that all the houses and buildings in his town were painted grey, brown or dark green. It was a sad time, and it seemed like there was no colour anywhere.
At the end of the war, “when colour came back,” Eric explains, “I just loved it so much. I keep saying that I wish our eyes could see more colour. Colour is a very important part of my work.”
That’s true. Eric paints bright colours on Paper, cuts out shapes, and then glues them onto another piece of paper. This method is called collage (拼贴画). In fact, it is what led Eric to his “ArtArt”.
Eric’s “ArtArt” includes large collages as well as paintings, photographs and even costurmes.
In all these works, he uses all kinds of colours—everything from purple to light green to orange.
Now that’s a lot of colour!

（2022春·江苏淮安·八年级校考期末）In my early childhood, I was often surprised when I saw my father making a small number of money with difficulty. Being a child, I was unable to understand him. When I was older, my father started doing a part-time job at home. He used to bring some work back and work till late night.
I can’t forget he played with me when I was 3-4 years old. He taught me how to read when I was at the age of 5. He took care of me all night when I was sick. Whenever I felt down, he would cheer me up. He also cared about my lessons and often helped me get ready for examinations. Later he sent me to New Delhi for the best education. Whenever I needed money, he never refused. He always managed money for my studies.
Two years ago, I got a job at a hospital in New Delhi. When I helped my first patient, I got a strong feeling of satisfaction. When I got my first salary（薪水）which was about ten times more than my pocket money, I spent it all on myself.

Then the men were tired and fell asleep. Tom and Huck lay there for a very long time. Finally, the two men woke up and lifted up a stone in the ground and took out some money they had stolen. Then Injun Joe lifted up another stone and found a box.
"What's this?" Injun Joe asked.
The two men pulled the box out of the ground and opened it. The two boys, Tom and Huck, could see there was much money in it. They were very excited.
"There's thousands of dollars in the box!" said his friend.
"It must have been left here by Murrel," said Injun Joe.
"What will we do with it?"
"We'll take it to my hideout(隐匿处)."
"Number one or number two?"
"Number two, under the cross."
Then Injun Joe and his friend saw some tools in the corner and decided to go upstairs. But the stairs broke when Injun Joe stood on them! So the two men left the house and went towards the river. Tom went home as quickly as he could.
The next day, the two boys remembered the "Number two", thinking this must be the number of the room in the hotel. They got all the keys they could find anywhere. But Tom discovered the door was not locked. He opened it!

（2022春·江苏宿迁·八年级统考期末）A bystander (旁观者) in Montana took a touching picture of a fireman reading a book to a little girl in the street. He was trying to take her mind off the sadness of their family’s car accident.
It was nighttime about a month ago when the firemen hurried to the two-car accident. While the other members of the team and the girl’s parents were busy dealing with the accident and police reports, fireman Ryan Benton took a book out of his bag and started reading to her in the street. “This allowed her to keep quiet and allowed the parents to pay attention to dealing with their broken car with the police and the driver of the other car,” said a fire department spokesperson. “Sweetest thing ever!” wrote Allie Marie Schmalz, the bystander, on Facebook (脸书) when she posted her photo of the 26-year-old fireman.
We’ve learned after news reports that the firemen always carry book bags to give to children in nervous situations. In the bags, there is a toy animal, a book about firemen, and other books that can make a young child’s mind peaceful.
Julie Angle later wrote on the Billings Fireman Facebook page, and she said how thankful she was for the moving practice. “A few years ago we experienced the firemen giving my kids toy animals after a fire. My girls remember that more than the fire. It was surely something we will always be thankful for!”

（2022春·江苏宿迁·八年级统考期末）Do you know how to cook, clean or grow plants? If not, you will soon. These will all be part of Chinese public education starting this fall.
A new standard (标准) for labor r education recently came out. Students in primary and middle school will have at least one class a week to try and experience different kinds of labor and learn different life skills and even job skills. The standard includes different tasks for each grade. For example, fifth- and sixth-graders learn to cook two or three common dishes, like fried eggs or scrambled eggs with tomato.
This move is to make Chinese students, life colourful and build their character (品行) through labor. Chinese school education didn’t pay enough attention (重视) to this in the past. According to a 2019 report, Chinese kids only do 12 minutes of practical activity each day, while US kids do 1.2 hours each day, China Daily reported.
The standard also asks families to take part in students’ labor education. They will help students become good at doing all kinds of housework.
Students should learn housework skills. Also, they will have a chance to try new technologies (技术) like 3D printing and laser cutting. And they will learn to make traditional things by hand.

（2022春·江苏宿迁·八年级统考期末）March 16 is International Sleep Day. And we should all celebrate the act of sleeping. Researchers say sleep is probably the best tool we have for memory and learning. But what about getting rest during the middle of the day?
A recent study on napping(小睡) says short periods of sleep may help our brains work better. Past studies have shown that napping can help babies and young children learn better. And napping can help brain performance in older adults. Taking a nap may also help this group of people fight off memory loss because of the increase in their age.
Many Americans do nap. But one-third of all adults in the United States are also chronically(长期的) tired, says the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). It found that 50 million to 70 million Americans have chronic sleep disorders. However, they seem to be unwilling to tell people that they take a nap. They may think that napping shows they are weak or they don’t have enough energy. It is not an uncommon opinion that only children, the very old, sick or lazy people nap. In fact, Americans sometimes do a very strange thing. Some people brag about how few hours of sleep they need each night to show that they are somehow stronger than the average human-superhuman, if you will. However, that may be changing. Many offices now offer napping rooms and napping cafes(咖啡馆) are appearing in many U.S. cities, including Washington, D．C． Remember that an hour long nap may be too long for young, healthy adults. It is Recommended that 30 minutes is enough to remove the pressure(压力) to sleep and will help people feel more awake. If people nap longer, they will get trapped into deep sleep, which can be hard to get out of. If you have trouble falling asleep at night, limit your daytime nap to under 45 minutes. Also nap before 3 p.m.
72．Who are “this group of people” in Paragraph 2?
A．The babies. B．The children. C．The older adults. D．The young people.

A．chat sadly B．talk proudly C．whisper secretly D．speak politely
74．For a young man with sleep problems, it is good to _________.
A．take a 40-minute-long noon nap B．take a nap whenever he feels sleepy
C．take an one-hour-long nap after dinner D．take a 30-minute-long nap in the evening
75．Why are some Americans unwilling to tell people that they take a nap?
A．Because 50 million to 70 million Americans have chronic sleep disorders.
B．Because it may make them seem weak.
C．Because it is common for Americans to take a nap.
D．Because only the old, the sick and children need a nap.

Peyo used to train for equestrian (马术的) shows. One day, his owner, Bouchakour, happened to find that his horse had a different, more unique ability. After shows, Peyo would pick people out of the crowd and remain close to them.
Bouchakour later realized that his horse was born with the ability to choose people that were sick. The trainer soon gave up his career as a sportsman. He decided to use Peyo’s special ability to bring peace and comfort to those who most needed it.
The horse has been a volunteer at Calais Hospital since 2016. It is popular with everyone at the hospital, but he’s especially useful when patients are nearing the end of their lives. Having Peyo by their side brings the patients joy in their final moments and helps them have a more peaceful passing. And in some cases, this can reduce their pain so greatly that they no longer require the use of strong drugs.
Since beginning his career as a therapy horse, Peyo has made this end-of-life period less painful for more than 1,000 patients. Not only does Peyo help the sick, but he’s also a true friend to his trainer. “Peyo is my other half. He is my life partner.” Bouchakour says.
