（24-25 八年级下·黑龙江哈尔滨·期中）Tanzania (坦桑尼亚) is a country with a lot of animals, such as
lions, cheetahs, elephants, giraffes and so on. Every year, many people in the world travel to this African country
to watch the animals closely. But do you know how they travel
By bus—This is the most common way. But the bus is different from the ones we often see. There are no
big windows at all, but some small windows. And it looks like a cage. People can use it to watch animals,
especially those dangerous animals, and take photos. We know that people are more interested in the lions than the
other animals. So when two buses meet, the drivers will stop and ask each other whether they have found lions.
By boat—We can often see many people are in a boat, enjoying the beautiful scene along a river of a lake,
and they can also enjoy hippos (河马) and crocodiles (鳄鱼) from a nearer distance (距离).
By hot balloon (热气球)—Taking a hot balloon excites most of the travelers. After some time, the balloon
will land in a certain place, and the waiters will serve people a delicious and special breakfast. But the cost of
taking a hot balloon is also very high. A person should pay 400 dollars for an hour’s trip.

（24-25 八年级下·黑龙江哈尔滨·期中）A travel diary is one of the best ways to remember a long trip.
Many small things that don’t seem important when you’re writing often become very easy to remember later.
Start the habit of writing your travel diary every day. When you’re busy on a trip, you might forget to write.
You may say you’ll do it later, but that almost never happens. Spend a few minutes each day writing down your
memories. It doesn’t need to be long.
Use your down time for your travel diary. There’s a lot of time when you’re just sitting during a trip. You
can write a few sentences when you’re on a train, waiting for a plane, drying your clothes, or standing in line.
At first, write down the small details people often forget. These things include the date, where you are, who
you’re with, maybe even the weather and what you eat. After many years, when you read your diary, you’ll know
exactly what you did.
Don’t forget to write about h ow you felt. Listing facts is okay, but that’s not why you took the trip. A long
trip is a time to think carefully. These feelings will be easy to forget over time. Writing about your experiences
when you still remember them clearly is important.
根据语篇内容，回答问题(每个题目答案不超过 6 个词)。

（24-25 八年级下·黑龙江·期中）I travelled to Canada one summer with students from my French class. It
was my first trip outside the United States. It was exciting because I could finally speak the foreign language I
was learning and I could hear native (本民族的) speakers. Canada is an excellent place to practice French for two
reasons.
First, most people in the French-speaking part of Canada can speak both French and English. I can use
French when I’m ready. There wouldn’t be much pressure. If I have something very important to communicate,
they can understand me if I speak English.
Second, people there like it when you try to speak French, even if you only speak a little. They hold French
in higher esteem (认为……更高贵) than English. Interestingly enough, although I wanted to communicate in my
newly learnt language, I soon found I could hardly use any of the words I had learned when I tried to use them.
And many words are completely different.
Although I didn’t get many opportunities (机会) to practice French in Canada, I’m still thankful for this
experience.Answer the questions according to the passage.
1．Where does the writer come from
2．Why did the writer think the summer trip was exciting
3．Was there much stress for the writer to speak French in Canada
4．What language do Canadians like speaking better
5．Did the writer get many opportunities to practice French in Canada

reading events but also organized traditional cultural activities. At the Zhongguancun Book Building, some folk
(民间) artist showed readers how to make rabbit toys. Other bookstores provided speeches and activities like
paper cutting and stories sharing.
