“Oh boys, boys, don’t throw stones at that poor bird,” said an old gray-headed man.
“Why, sir,” said a little boy, “she makes such a scream, that we can’t bear her.” “Yes, but she uses the voice which God gave her. And it is probably as pleasant to her friends as yours is to those who love you. Besides, I am afraid the stone will rebound(弹回), and hurt you as long as you live!”
“Rebound! We don’t understand you, sir!” “Well, come and I will tell you a story.” “Is it a true story ” “Yes. Every word is true.”
“Fifty years ago, I was a boy like you. I used to throw stones, and as I had no other boy very near me to play with, I threw them till I became very accurate(精确的) in my aim.”
“One day I went to work for an aged couple named Hamilton. They were very kind to everybody and everything. Few people had so many birds making their nests under houses. Few had so many pets that seemed to love the couple.”
“For seven years a bird had come. After the long winter, the bird built her nest in the same place and raised her young ones there. She had just returned on the day that I went there to work.”
“During the day, I thought I would try my skill upon her. She sat upon a stick near her nest, and looked at me trustfully. I found a nice stone and threw it with my best skill.”
“It shot the bird on the head, and she dropped dead!”
“I was sorry as soon as I saw her fall. But the deed was done. All day long her mate flew about, and was so sad that he made my heart ache. Why had I taken a life so innocent, and hurt the poor mate so deeply ”
“I said nothing to the old couple about it. But, through a grandchild, they found it out. Though they never said a word to me on the matter, they mourned the bird and buried it. I could never look them in the face afterwards. Oh, I had told them how sorry I was!”
“They have been dead many, many years. But don’t you see how that stone rebounded and hit me How deep it made upon my memory! How deep upon my conscience(良知)! Why, my dear boys, How I want to give a great deal today if I could do something for that deed!”
“For fifty years I have carried it in my memory! I have never spoken of it before. Yet if what I have now said shall prevent you from throwing a stone that may rebound and deeply hurt your conscience. I shall be very cheerful. ”
The boys at once dropped the stones they had in their hands.

When Ariel rode her bike to the riverside, she saw a beautiful swan lying near the riverside. Ariel worked at the Wild Bird Fund rehab centre（康复中心）and knew that swans could be aggressive. So she should be careful to prevent herself from being hurt. But as she went near this one, she found that it was badly hurt. “I should help it, or it will die.” she thought.
Ariel put her jacket over the bird’s hand to keep it calm first. She picked it up softly, and held it in her arms. And then she thought, “What should I do now ” Her best choice was to take the swan to the rehab centre, but that was across the river and on the other side of the city. How was she going to take a 17-pound swan on her bike all that way
Luckily, when some drivers saw her, they were willing to offer her, her bike and the swan a ride to a nearby underground station. Ariel called the rehab centre on the way, and then an animal-care manager picked her up at another underground station. When they got to the centre, the manager checked and treated（治疗）the swan. They took good care of the swan.
Now, the bird makes many swan friends in the centre, and it is enjoying a happy life. It’s really a happy ending. “If an animal needs help, I would like to do whatever I can. I always feel happy to do this,” Ariel said.

There are more than 50 billion honeybees flying around our farms and neighborhoods every summer. We take care of them so that they can take care of us by helping many of our crops grow.
But honeybees aren’t the only bees in town.
People from England brought the first honeybees to North America in 1622. But those European honeybees arrived to a land that was already filled with wild bees, more than 4,000 kinds of them. Some of those wild bee kinds are bumblebees (大黄蜂). Bumblebees are probably our most famous wild bees, and they are the same as honeybees in many ways. They live in groups and they are active all summer long. But most wild bees are pretty different. Many of them live their lives alone. In these kinds, each female is a hardworking single mom who builds her own nest, usually in a wood tunnel or underground cave, lays her own eggs, and works alone to feed her babies.
More than 80% of all plant kinds depend on animals to move their pollen (花粉) from flower to flower. This way, called pollination, is how these plants grow.
All kinds of animals play an important role in pollination: butterflies, moths, flies, ants, even birds and bats, but bees are the best pollinators out there.
And while honeybees get most of the attention, wild bees can be just as useful, sometimes even more so.
Some of these relationships have developed over millions of years, and the survival of each partner depends on the other.
22．What is Paragraph One mainly about
A．Honeybees are everywhere in the U. S. all year round.
B．The farmers in the U. S. are bored with too many honeybees.
C．Honeybees are useless to the farmers in the U. S.
D．Lots of honeybees in the U. S. help with the crops’ growth.
23．What does the underlined word “they” refer to
A．European honeybees. B．American bumblebees.
C．American honeybees. D．European wild bees.
24．Which animal can help move the pollen most
A．Butterflies B．Bats. C．Bees. D．Moths.
25．From the passage, we know that ________.
A．bees are active all summer long
B．the first honeybees were from North America
C．male wild bees are the most hardworking
D．most plant kinds move their pollen on their own
第三部分 信息还原（共5小题：每小题1分，满分5分）
请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。
As we all know, animals are important in our daily life. For example, dogs can be good helpers to human. What about monkeys 26 Yes. They can do a great job, too. Monkeys can help disabled people live a better life just as dogs do.
27 One difference is that monkeys live longer than dogs do. This means that a monkey’s “childhood” is also longer than a dog’s. So it may take them four to six years before they are ready to begin training. It’s said that it is almost as much work as raising a young child!
After monkeys begin training, they usually take about a year to learn enough tasks’ to be good helpers. 28 For example, if a person wants to have the lights turned on, he or she may give the order “sun”. 29 The monkey will know what its owner wants when it hears these orders, and it will complete the tasks.
As the monkeys get better at completing their tasks, they learn new and more difficult ones. 30
Can you imagine that in the future some disabled people keep monkeys as their pets and at the same time the moneys can help them to make their life easier
A．Some monkeys can even learn how to use a computer!
B．Monkeys can play with people when they are free.
C．Can they also help human
D．One important thing that they need to learn is how to follow orders.
E．If the owner has dropped something, he or she might say “fetch”.
F．Likes dogs, monkeys need lots of training to be human helpers.
G．Unlike dogs, monkeys don’t need lots of training to be human helpers.

请认真阅读下面短文，用英语回答短文后的问题。
“Were the birds on the ice ducks or geese (鹅) ” Cruz, 11, and Anthony, 12, couldn’t agree. There was only one way to find out. So on a cold January evening, the two friends took a risk onto the frozen lake near their homes.
“First, we threw a stone onto the ice to test it. We thought it would hold our weight. Then we stepped on it,” Cruz said. Anthony went first. He took a few steps, then... He fell through the seemingly frozen ice!
Cruz rushed to help his friend. The lake “ate” him, too. Cruz managed to lift himself out of the freezing water and onto some ice. He then tried to work his way toward Anthony. But the ice didn’t hold, and he fell in again. This time, he couldn’t get out.
The boys were up to their necks in icy water and quickly losing feeling in their arms and legs. Cruz had a sense that he was going to die.
Anthony’s older sister had seen all this and started shouting for help. John Lavin, a neighbor driving nearby, heard her. He quickly pulled over. He caught a nearby float (浮板), kicked off his shoes. and ran into the water, clearing his way through the ice with his free hand. “It was kind of a ‘Hulk smash’.” Lavin later joked.
Lavin made his way to pull the boys back to land. They were taken to the hospital immediately. The doctor said their five-minute stay in the water made their body temperature drop nearly ten degrees. Luckily, the boys got well soon. They admire their fearless neighbor just as Hulk, one of the Marvel Superheroes.
54．In which season did the story happen
55．Why did Cruz and Anthony walk onto the frozen lake
56．Would you take a risk when you try to find out the truth Why or why not

Tigers are in danger
Tigers are the largest living cats in the world. They are big and strong. They have bright eyes. They have orange fur with dark stripes. They look so powerful!
Tigers can run very fast. They are good at hunting other animals for food. People think them as the king of the forest.
Now tigers are in danger because hunters are hunting them for their fur and bones. Also, tigers do not have enough food to eat. And people always cut down many trees and kill tigers so that get their fur. We should do something to help them. We should make some nature reserves for them. And we should not cut forests. We should not wear tiger furs or use their bones for medicine.
I hope tigers can live peacefully on earth with people.2024牛津译林版苏州八年级英语上册第三次月考测试卷
