in a dry environment. Research has found the virus can live for five days if the temperature stands at 20℃
with humidity (湿度) at 40% to 50%.

Putting on VR headsets, people can get quite
immersive (沉浸式虚拟现实的) gaming experiences.
That sounds like fun, but VR isn’t just for video
games. It can also be used in many other industries (行
业).
A few years ago, Oral Roberts University in America opened a new Global Learning Center. It has
classrooms with 360-degree cameras on the wall. They turn around to follow and take videos of teachers as
they teach. Students don’t have to go to the classroom to experience VR. Through an app on their
smartphones, they can see the videos in 3D and control them. “VR has changed the way teachers teach and
students learn,” Michael Mathews said.
During the 27th Beijing Music Festival in October, 2024, a VR show called Eight appeared in Asia for
the first time. It tells a story of an old woman looking back on her life and lasts for 15 minutes. As a special
mix of music, theater, VR technology (科技) and visual art, the show is really a wonderful experience for
visitors. “The VR technology lets these musical experiences make sense,” said Hong Lin, one of the
visitors who experienced Eight. The director of the show said, “When I have an idea, I think about how to
communicate it to others. Whatever thoughts I have, the technology is always in service of them.”
VR is getting popular around the world. With the quick development of 5G technology, there is no
question that the VR industry will go into a new period. Experts and industry insiders say that the VR
industry will have a new era.
（ ）37. Paragraph 2 gives an example of the use of VR in the ▲ industry.
A. music B. game C. education D. movie
（ ）38. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 3
A. Eight is a show at a music festival.
B. VR makes the show Eight fantastic.
C. It’s important for us to watch shows.
D. VR is so useful that we can use it at any time.
（ ）39. What can we learn about VR from Paragraph 4
A. It’ll be mainly for game users.
B. It’ll face many great difficulties.
C. It’ll become the most important technology.
八年级英语试题卷—5
D. It’ll develop more quickly with the help of 5G technology.
（ ）40. Who might be the most interested in the passage
A. Oscar, who wants to study history.

“This showed it’s important to learn a special skill,” he said.
Living was hard, but finishing the tasks wasn't any easier. They went to different places to finish tasks
in a short time. The most amazing one was when they had to exchange things worth(值……) thousands of
yuan with only a piece of paper in half an hour. “We learned how to persuade(说服)others. From a balloon
to a cake to a bottle of yogurt... after almost 20 tries, we got an expensive necklace,” Zhao Jiacheng said.
