外研版（2024）八年级上册英语期中测试卷答案解析
第I卷 选择题（满分55分）
一、单项选择（共15小题，每小题1分，满分15分）
1. C
解析：考查固定搭配。“make a huge difference to...”为外研版八年级上册核心短语，意为“对……产生巨大影响”，符合“人工智能解放简单任务”的语境。A（重要性）、B（经历）、D（信心）均无法构成该搭配，故选C。
2. B
解析：考查形容词最高级。“one of + the + 形容词最高级 + 可数名词复数”是固定结构，表“最……之一”。successful的最高级为“most successful”，需加定冠词the；actress（女演员）的复数为actresses，A缺the、C用比较级、D用单数，均错误，故选B。
3. A
解析：考查现在完成时短语辨析。“have been to”表“去过某地（已返回）”，“have gone to”表“去了某地（未返回）”，“have been in”表“在某地待一段时间”。答语“上次学校旅行去的”说明已返回，故选A。
4. B
解析：考查动词短语语义匹配。A（付款）、C（放弃）、D（出发）均不符合“令人敬佩”的语境；B（坚持）代入后“她能坚持梦想”，符合对王亚平的正面描述，故选B。
5. C
解析：考查延续性动词。“how long”提问时间段，需搭配延续性动词。borrow（借）是短暂性动词，无法与“for two weeks”搭配，其延续性形式为keep；结合答语时态，用现在完成时“have kept”，故选C。
6. B
解析：考查动词固定搭配。“provide sb. with sth.”和“offer sb. sth.”均为“给某人提供某物”，是教材核心搭配。第一空后接“us with”，用provide；第二空后接“us delicious food”，用offer，故选B。
7. D
解析：考查动词短语用法。A（plan to do，后接不定式，此处“having”是动名词，排除）、B（agree on强调“达成一致”，不接动作，排除）、C（hope for后接名词，排除）；D（decide on doing，后接动名词，表“决定做某事”），符合“讨论后决定野餐”的语境，故选D。
8. C
解析：考查动词短语语义。A（靠边停车）、B（摔倒，主语通常为物体自身，排除）、D（拿出）均不符合“愤怒的人们对雕塑的动作”；C（撞倒）代入后“撞倒广场雕塑”，语义合理，故选C。
9. B
解析：考查介词短语。A（轮流）、C（提前）、D（此外）均无法体现“她帮我，我送礼物”的因果；B（作为回报）代入后“送礼物表感谢”，符合逻辑，故选B。
10. C
解析：考查延续性动词判断。A中borrow（短暂性）、B中join（短暂性）、D中catch a cold（短暂性）均不能与表时间段的短语搭配，需改为kept、been in、had a cold；C中see（延续性）可与“for years”搭配，句子正确，故选C。
11. D
解析：考查固定搭配。“spend time (in) doing sth.”（花费时间做某事）和“practise doing sth.”（练习做某事）是教材重点语法，两处均需用动名词，故选D。
12. A
解析：考查感叹句和固定搭配。感叹句中，fun是不可数名词，用“What + 形容词 + 不可数名词 + 主语 + 谓语！”结构；“have fun doing sth.”（做某事开心）是固定用法，故选A。
13. A
解析：考查固定搭配。“give up doing sth.”（放弃做某事）和“regret doing sth.”（后悔做过某事）是核心考点，“放弃吸烟”用“smoking”，“不后悔做”用“doing that”，故选A。
14. A
解析：考查固定搭配。“would rather not do sth.”（宁愿不做某事）是教材基础句型，否定形式直接在rather后加not，后接动词原形，故选A。
15. C
解析：考查remember的用法。“remember doing sth.”（记得做过某事，已做）、“remember to do sth.”（记得要做某事，未做）。由“但现在灯亮着”可知，“关灯”动作已尝试做过，用“turning off”，故选C。
二、完形填空（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分）

参考范文
Dear Alice,
I’m happy to tell you some changes about me.
Two years ago, I was short with short straight hair, and I was very shy—even afraid to speak in front of classmates. But now I’m much taller, and I’ve grown long curly hair. I’m also more outgoing; I often take part in class discussions and make new friends easily.
In terms of habits, I used to eat lots of junk food and hardly exercise. Now I prefer healthy food like vegetables and fruit, and I play basketball with my friends twice a week. It makes me stronger.
At school, I used to struggle with English. But with Ms. Wang’s help, I started reading English stories every day. Now my English grades are among the top in my class. I even won a school English competition last month!
I’m looking forward to meeting you and sharing more changes with you.
Yours,
Li Hua

Social media (社交媒体) has its good sides, but it can also bring some problems.
Have you ever been bored and decided to check your We Chat moments, only to find out that your best friend is at the Great Wall or one of your classmates is eating delicious noodles at your favorite restaurant, or one of your basketball teammates is visiting the giant pandas in Sichuan Have you had the feeling that others are enjoying life more than you are If your answers are both “Yes”, you are experiencing FOMO—the fear of missing out.
Researchers have found that over 75% of young people are experiencing FOMO from time to time. Social media is the main culprit for it. Because it is so easy today for people to see what their friends are doing, eating, buying and talking about. And they are afraid of missing out on important and new information when they are away from social networks. However, it is impossible for us to enjoy the same activities others are enjoying on social media. Failing to realize this truth, we often let FOMO lead us to compare our lives with those of others. This comparison leaves us feeling dissatisfied (不满的). However, our lives have both good and bad moments, but all we see on social media are the picture-perfect moments others share. FOMO also makes us check social media more often, which can cause feelings of sadness, loneliness and boredom.
So what should we do if we have FOMO Researchers advised that we face it and change our way of thinking. They also explained that taking part in social activities could help us realize that nothing bad was happening. What’s more, they suggested finding the joy in the present and not believing the unreal information or news on the Internet. “Take it as a chance to do what you really love, and turn your FOMO into your JOMO— joy of missing out,” one researcher said.
31. What is the main purpose of Paragraph 2
A．To show what FOMO is with examples.
B．To find out if people suffer from FOMO.
C．To ask questions about people’s daily lives.
D．To give examples about people’s using social media.
32. Which one can replace the word “culprit” in Paragraph 3
A．purpose B．cause C．result D．problem
33. Why does social media make people feel dissatisfied according to paragraph 3
A．Because our lives have both good and bad moments.
B．Because it leads us to compare our lives with those of others.
C．Because it is impossible for us to make friends by social media.
D．Because we can see the picture-prefect moments.
34. What are the right ways to deal with FOMO based on the last paragraph
①Join a voluntary group.
②Accept what you are having now.
③Check your friends’ We Chat moments from time to time.
④Develop your hobbies.
⑤Stop believing the news on the Internet.
A．③④⑤ B．②③⑤ C．①④⑤ D．①②④
35. What can be the best title of this passage
A．Social media: Good or bad B．FOMO: Friend or enemy
C．FOMO: Get out of it! D．Social media: Guard against it!
C
Robot dogs are smart helpers. They can walk, run, and carry things like real dogs. They are even used to do difficult jobs. Mount Taishan is trying these robot dogs!
Mount Taishan is a very famous place that lots of people come to visit. But with so many visitors, keeping the mountain clean is a difficult job. The steep paths (陡峭的路径) make it hard to carry away the litter (垃圾).
The team whose job was to keep the mountain clean thought that it might be a good idea to let the robot dogs do this job. These robots can carry 30 to 40 kilograms of litter and climb the mountain much faster than most people. They can work for 4 to 6 hours after they are recharged (充电).
The robots are a hit with the visitors, too. People stop to take pictures and are excited to see them. “I see it climbing and even take a photo with it. It’s really eye-catching,” said Wang Yang, a visitor from Harbin. “It would be even more amazing if it could carry people up the mountain in the future.”
The team is still working to make the robot dogs even better. They hope these robot helpers will soon be a common sight on Mount Taishan.

A．Swim in the water. B．Walk, run, and carry things.
C．Jump high and talk to people. D．Sing and dance for people.
37. Why is it hard to keep Mount Taishan clean
A．Because there are too many tall trees.
B．Because there is too much litter on the mountain.
C．Because the paths are steep and there are many visitors.
D．Because the cleaners are new and they don’t know what to do.
38. How long can the robot dogs work after they’re recharged
A．For 2 to 4 hours. B．For 3 to 5 hours.
C．For 4 to 6 hours. D．For 5 to 7 hours.
