（22-23八年级下·广东广州·期末）Could you imagine cars driving without human drivers Recently, China has made a big step toward self-driving technology. This August, more and more driverless taxis run on roads in many big cities in China.
Why do we develop self-driving cars Self-driving cars give us many benefits. They use computers to sense the things around them and make better use of space. This means fewer traffic jams and better parking of cars. Many people cannot drive for various reasons, including age, disability, or lack of experience. Now, they can get around more easily. Driving becomes more convenient.
According to a research, each year, over 1.3 million people die in car accidents around the world, and many more get hurt. Self-driving cars can reduce (减少) road accidents by 90% and save a lot of money. The main cause of car accidents is human mistakes. By using computers, self-driving cars don’t make poor decisions or lose attention like humans do. They can improve driving safety.
But self-driving cars aren’t perfect. If something unexpected on the road happens, self-driving cars can’t react (反应) as fast as a human driver can. Also, during weather events like heavy snow, it will be difficult for self-driving cars to see the lines on the road. It might lead to an accident. The computer system in the car can also get hacked (非法入侵) by someone, causing it to crash.
It’s clear that there is a lot of work to do to make self-driving cars a common and safe sight on our roads. And China is taking the lead in making this happen.
4．Which of the following is a benefit of self-driving cars according to the passage
A．They don’t need parking space. B．They can teach people how to drive.
C．They allow disabled people to travel more easily. D．They cost less money to make and repair.
5．Why can self-driving cars help reduce road accidents
A．Because they can correct human mistakes while driving.
B．Because their computers can predict all road accidents.
C．Because computers do not have attention problems.
D．Because they can see clearly even in bad weathers.
6．What is Paragraph 4 mainly about
A．The weaknesses of self-driving cars. B．The benefits of having a human driver.
C．How road accidents usually happen. D．How the computers in self-driving cars work.
7．What do we know from the last paragraph
A．Many countries are working together to develop self-driving cars.
B．Self-driving cars need clean and safe roads to run.
C．We can already see self-driving cars everywhere in China.
D．China is trying to make self-driving cars safer and more common.
（22-23八年级下·广东广州·期末）Classic Chinese cartoons bring joy to most of us. Last month, three classic Chinese cartoons came out in the cinemas again. Let’s see how old artists put Chinese culture and art into the cartoons to make them classic.
The Legend of Sealed Book tells the story of the boy Dansheng. He practices great tricks（魔法）from the book to help people. The film uses face painting from the Peking Opera. It helps to show the characters’ personalities（特征）. Lovely Dansheng looks like wawasheng, roles for kids in Peking Opera. A bad person in the story looks like a fool, with a large white part in the center of his face.
Little Tadpole Looking for Mummy is China’s first ink（墨水）wash cartoon. Artists drew all the animals, plants and rocks with ink and brushes. They learned from the great artist Qi Baishi. Though it’s only about 15 minutes long, it took lots of work. Artists drew everything by hand. One second of the cartoon needed 24 pictures! Fifty-nine years later, the 2020 cartoon series Fog Hills of Five Elements also uses this style.
Pigsy Eats Watermelon is China’s first paper cutting cartoon. This 15-minute cartoon came out in 1958. Artists cut Zhu Bajie out of colored paper. Then they moved its body parts and let it eat the watermelon. Making a paper cutting cartoon was not easy. The characters’ moves were not easy either. After a lot of work, they tried again and again and finally made it!

（21-22八年级下·广东广州·期末）My name is Ella, and I’m 22. Last year I went to Thailand for two weeks as part of a group of volunteers at an elephant sanctuary—a place where people look after sick and rescued elephants. To be honest, I was worried that the rest of the group might not like to talk with me because they were much older than me. I was also nervous because it was the first time I’d done anything like that. In the end, though, there was no need to worry.
One of our main jobs at the sanctuary was to collect the elephants’ food. Elephants eat huge amounts of grass and banana plants, so collecting this took most of the day. It was really hard work, but it was worth seeing the elephants enjoy their meals. We also helped wash the elephants in the river using big brushes. I found that so much fun, even if I got wetter than the elephants did! The part of the day I most look forward to was the evening. By the light of the moon, we led the elephants on foot into the forest area where they spent the night.
All the volunteers stayed in a small house, so we didn’t have much space. The weather was uncomfortably hot and wet, especially at night. The meals were delicious, which all of us enjoy. After dinner, all the volunteers and workers spent the evenings talking and playing games.
Now that I am back in the UK, I miss my friends there too much. When I look back, I can see how lucky I was to go there. Maybe I’ll go back one day-I certainly will!
23．At first, Ella might worry about ________.
A．staying with the elephants alone B．the small and crowded living place
C．the communication with the other volunteers D．the long working hours
24．What was Ella’s favourite activity
A．Preparing food for the elephants. B．Feeding the elephants.
C．Cleaning the elephants. D．Walking with the elephants.
25．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage
A．Ella is lucky to see her friends in the UK. B．The nights there were boring.
C．The food they ate was delicious. D．The weather was generally good.
26．What will Ella write in her blog about the time in Thailand
A．We had a wonderful time. We were relaxed and went for exciting elephant rides.
B．We fed elephants in a zoo. We were surprised how much food they needed.
C．We went sightseeing around Thailand and saw elephants in the beautiful forests.
D．We had a great time taking care of some elephants. It will be a fantastic memory.
（21-22八年级下·广东广州·期末）①Zoos are very popular with adults and children. But are zoos actually a good thing
②Some people criticize keeping animals in zoos. In their opinion, animals often suffer a lot for being enclosed. Even the best zoos can’t provide the environment that animals have in the wild. It’s a pity that the animals living in the wild are caught, and then kept away from their families. This leads many zoo animals to feel nervous or sad. What’s worse, some zoo animals may even die earlier than their wild relatives.
③However, some people have different ideas. They think zoos can connect people with animals, educate the public to protect animals and call on people to save animals as well as their homes. Some zoos offer a safe place to those animals which have been badly treated. Also, to support international breeding program, zoos have special programs to produce more young animals, especially for the species (物种) which are in danger of dying out. In the wild, some of the endangered species have trouble in finding partners and having new baby animals. A good zoo will provide a safe environment for these species. Moreover, zoos also do research into animal behavior and how to treat their illnesses.
④So, are zoos good or not It depends on how good the zoo is. It’s sure that zoos have more advantages than their harmful effects. But it is understandable that many people don’t agree to enclose animals for any reason.
27．What may the underlined word “criticize” mean
A．thinking it’s right B．thinking it’s dangerous
C．thinking it’s wrong D．thinking it’s difficult

B．To study animals and understand their behavior.
C．To protect homes for the endangered animals.
D．To increase the number of animals of some species.

A． B． C． D．
30．Generally, what is the writer’s attitude (态度) towards zoos
A．He supports keeping animals in zoos.
B．He disagrees to enclose animals in zoos.
C．He thinks it better to have more zoos.
D．He is neither for nor against keeping animals in zoos.

A picture speaks a thousand words. And nowadays, people like to use emojis to show their words instead of speaking or writing.

（21-22八年级下·广东广州·期末）Rainy days don’t have to get you down, a happiness expert has claimed.
Paul Dolan, Professor of Behavioral Science at the London School of Economics, said that people only feel miserable in bad weather because they think about it too much. Studies have shown that people who live in warm, sunny climates are no happier than those in chilly, wet climates, he said.
So the British talking about the weather may be making us gloomier（沮丧的）than the weather itself.
He said: “A study was done that measured the happiness levels of people in California compared to the North West.”
“They expected that people in California would be happier because it is sunnier, but they found that levels of happiness were exactly the same.”
“If it is sunny every day you get used to it and the sunshine doesn’t make you any happier.”
“Most of the time the weather doesn’t affect our well-being at all. But when we think about it, and think that
it does, that’s when we get miserable.”
In his new book, Happiness By Design, Dolan argues that we can think ourselves happy by taking our attention away from what makes us sad.
“Most of our anxieties come from what might be,” he argues. “If you want to be happier, pay attention to the things that make you feel good.”
He also claimed that a problem shared was not always a problem halved（减半）. He claimed that humans are actually very good at being able to get over tragedy and loss.
Professor Dolan also admitted for the first time that he had a stammer（口吃）, which had made his early life miserable. He claimed it only got better when he learned not to pay attention to his speech problem.
“Things are never as bad as you imagine them being,” he said.
35．What has the research found
A．British people don’t like to chat about the weather.
B．Rainy days have no effect on people’s mood.
C．People tend to be happy when the sun is shining.
D．Cold days make people feel less happy.
36．What does the underlined word “miserable” in the second paragraph mean
A．Good. B．Unhappy. C．Cheerful. D．Confident.
37．What is Dolan’s suggestion for being happy
A．Don’t think too much about yourself. B．Don’t focus on what makes you sad.
C．Avoid comparing yourself with others. D．Avoid doing many miserable things.
38．What do we know about professor Dolan
A．Once, he couldn’t speak fluently.
B．Once, he didn’t want to share his problems with others.
C．He has a great ability to get over bad things.
D．He has written many books about happiness.

Chinese Lion Dance myths and legends
④The Chinese lion dance goes back more than a thousand years ago and there are many myths and legends surrounding this practice.
⑤However, the most famous one is that of the story of Nian, the monster. Nian destroyed villages year after year. Finally, one year, a lion beat and scared the monster away. Nian was angry and decided to return the next year when he was sure that the lion would be gone by then. Instead, the villagers thought of a great idea. They created a costume in the shape of a lion and two villagers used it to scare him away. The legend also says that loud noises from the drum, other instruments, and firecrackers helped scare Nian away. Red is worn during the New Year’s celebration because it was also believed that the cruel beast was afraid of the colour red.
⑥Another story says that it was a visiting monk（和尚）who managed to control the terrible beast by tying a red ribbon around its body. From then on, instead of destroying the village, he used his power to act as a protector.

Different people hold different opinions about using the social media, such as QQ in China and Facebook in the USA．Here’s what a few foreign friends said:
If you ask me, I think social media is great! I like posting photos of the places I’ve been to, the people I’ve met and even the meals I’ve eaten! I usually check my social media accounts a few times everyday. I like to know what people are doing. And if something good has happened, I congratulated them with “likes” right away. I’m acutally quite shy when I’m with a group of people, but on social media I feel much more confident about sharing my news and ideas.
In my opinon, people should be careful about using social media. I don’t like the people who I don’t know read about me, so I’m very careful about who I connect with. I think social media can soemtimes be used for gossip, with people posting unkind things about other people. I’ve hears about bullying(欺凌)on social media, too—that’s just cruel.
In my view, many people waste a lot of time on social media. They don’t go out and exercise as much as they should—they’d rather spend time on their devices! I think some people have “FOMO”—a fear of missing out. Usually the posts that other people with FOMO see these posts, it’s easy for them to feel their lives aren’t as interesting. They worry that they are missing ut on all the fun! I think that’s a bit sad.
For me, social media is one of the good methods to keep up with what’s going on in my own town and around the world. I’m in a number of groups with people who have interested just like mine. I like sharing opinions and ideas with people who think like me. I’ve met some interesting people and made some friends through social media.
