But Japan isn’t rich in mineral resources(矿产资源）.It decided to make medals in an environmentally friendly way: by using the metal collected from e-rubbish. This isn’t an easy thing, because, to make all the gold, silver and bronze medals for the 2020 Games, it needs over 30.3 kg of gold,4,100 kg of silver and 2,700 kg of bronze.How does the Tokyo Organizing Committee make it happen? It started the Medal Project and set up collection centers(usually post offices and other public places) across 1,594 cities in Japan. Since April 2017,Japanese people, companies as well as athletes have been encouraged to send e-rubbish, such as old phones, broken cameras and computers to the centers.Although the collection activity came to an end this March, it killed two birds with one stone—people around Japan take part in the preparation work; they now care more about the environment, believing that recycling is a good idea.(No more than five words)76.

They wanted to change this, and because their hobby was boating, they decided to sail round the world together.It took six years to prepare everything for the trip. First, they bought a new boat. Then, both the husband and wife had to take advanced (先进的) sailing lessons and learn all about the sea and the weather. Mr. Spencer also did several courses in repairing engines and Mrs. Spencer spent an hour in a restaurant learning to cut up fish.In October they had one year off from their jobs and sailed away from England with their two children. The next year, in August, their long journey ended in Australia.The boat was not big, but they took a teacher for the children with them. None of them found the trip boring because there were three computers, many CDs, a TV and a DVD player on the boat.The family loved being at the sea and seeing the stars in the sky. But, most of all, Mr. and Mrs. Spencer enjoyed spending time with their children while they were still young.回答下面5个问题，每题答案不超过5个单词。

（5分）Dear Helen,Thanks for your last letter. Yes, I'm enjoying myself in France. It's even better than I thoughtit would be. I was a bit nervous before I arrived here, but there was no reason to be.My host family is really nice. They go out of their way to make me feel at home. And you wouldn't believe how quickly my French has improved! I'm very comfortable speaking French now. Although I still make lots ofmistakes, it doesn't bother me as it used to. My biggest challenge is learning how to behave at the dinner table. As you can imagine, things are really not the same as the way they are at home. For example, you shouldn’t put your bread on your plate. You should put it on the table! I thought that was pretty strange at first, but now I'm used to it. You shouldn’t eat anything with your hands except bread, not even fruit! Another thing is that it is very rude to say you're full. If you don't want any more food, you should just say, "It was delicious." Also, it's rude to put your hands in your lap. You should always keep your hands, but not your elbows, on the table.I have to say, I find it difficult to remember everything, but I'm gradually getting used to things and don't find them so strange any more. I'll write soon and tell you more about life in France. Hope you're having a good school year.YoursMei Fei回答下面5个问题, 每题答案不超过5个词。

Too many people want others to be their friends, but they don’t give friendship（友谊） back. That is why some friends hips don’t last（持续） very long. To have a friend, you must learn to treat （对待）your friend the wayyou want your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good friend means learning three rules: be honest; be generous；be understanding.Honesty means being honest. It is where a good friendship starts. Friends must be able to trust one another. If you don’t tell the truth, people usually find out. If afriend finds out that you haven’t been honest, you maylose your friend’s trust. Good friends always count on（依赖）one another to speak and act honestly.Generosity means sharing and sharing makes a friendship grow. You don’t have to give your friend your lunch money or your clothes, or enjoy your hobbies and interests together. Naturally you will want to share your ideas and feelings. These can be very valuable（有价值的） to a friend. Theytell your friend what is important to you. By sharing them, you help your friend know you better.Sooner or later everyone needs understanding and help witha problem. Something may go wrong at school.

There's no exchange of presents among business people, and if one American tries to give another a present, it may look like that he wants to bribe (贿赂) him. Americans have learned that in some other countries people like to givepresents to others, but among ourselves we don't see the need for presents.Even friends may never exchange presents. When I go to foreign countries, I try to bring back little things for close friends, but nobody would feel unhappy if I didn't. I don't often remember a friend's birthday, and fewpeople outside of my family remember mine. If someone gave me presents too often, I'd get unpleasant. But a present from a foreigner - that kind from his or her homeland — won't go wrong, except to government employees (政府职员) who can't be given presents.You usually open a present at once and in front of the person who gives it except Christmas and birthday presents. You should only say, "It's so nice. Thanks…" when you get Christmas or birthday presents.You may want to bring a bottle of wine (葡萄酒) or flowers to a dinner party, but you're never asked to. Nobody will mind if you bring wine, butyour friend may not use it that evening.At Christmas we often give presents to our family and sometimes our friends.We also give presents to people who have been helpful during the year- doormen, babysitters, housecleaners, newspaper senders— anyone who has often helped us.1.What does "close friends" mean in the passage?A. The friends who are very kind.B. The friends who live close to each other.C. The friends who were once classmates.D. The friends who you like most.2.What kind of presents don't Americans usually open in front of the givers?A. The small presents.B. Christmas or birthday presents.C. The expensive presents.D. The presents for dinner party.3.Why do Americans also give presents to housecleaners at Christmas?A. To pay them.B. To help them.C. To thank them.D. To make them work harder.4.Which of the following do you think is right?A. American business people don’t want presents because they are rich enough.B. The writer of this passage must be an American.C. Everyone must give presents to one’s family and friends at Christmas.D. Government employees can get little presents from a foreigner.5.What is the main idea of the passage?A. Present-giving in the United States .B. Customes in the United States.C. American people and present-giving.D. When and how to give presents.四、单词拼写20. 根据句意及所给中文提示或英文解释，写出句中所缺单词。

In a novel.C. In a dictionary.D. In a history bookBClassic books never go out of fashion. The Outsider first came out in 1967. But even though the book is old, it is still worth reading. The book is written by US writer S.E.Hinton.The book tells the story of a 14-year-old boy called Ponyboy Curtis. He struggles with (挣扎于) right and wrong in a society where he believes he is an outsider. The story took place in Oklahoma, US, in 1965.In the book, the children are divided into two groups. One includes Curtis and Greasers, which are mostly made up of poor kids. They have longer hair and they smoke at a young age. The other group is called the Socs, which is made up of rich children. They wear expensive clothes and drive high-tech cars. Those two groups do not get along well. The book only shows us two weeks of the boy’s life. But unexpected things happen and change the boy’s life forever.I was touched by friendship among the boys. When any of them had a problem, the others would help. Although they are not well educated , they are kind and brave. For example, when Johnny was hurt and in hospital, his friends visited him almost every day. They brought him food and told him interesting stories. I always dreamed of having kind and strong friendships like this.This book shows the beautiful personalities in those ordinary people. I advise that teenagersread this book and I hope they can enjoy it.56.What dose the writer mean by saying “Classic books never go out of fashion.”?A.Books for classroom reading are popular.B.

One of my father’s friends, Bernie, was a rich businessman, who owned a large store in St. Paul.Every summer, when the first watermelons arrived, Bernie would call. Dad and I would go to Bernie’s place. We’d sit on the edge of the dock（码头）, feet dangling（摇晃）, and got ready for a big meal.Bernie would take his knife, cut our first watermelon, hand us both a big piece and sit down next to us. Then we’d bury our faces in watermelon, eating only the heart—the reddest, juiciest, firmest, sweetest, most seed-free part—and throw away the rest.Bernie was my father’s idea of a rich man. I always thought it was because he was such a successful businessman. Years later, I realized that it was not Bernie’s wealth itself but his way of dealing with it that my father liked. Bernie knew how to stop working, get together with friends and eat only the heart of the watermelon.What I learned from Bernie is that being rich is a state of mind. Some of us, no matter how much money we have, will never be free enough to eat only the heart of the watermelon. If you don’t take the time to dangle your feet over the dock and enjoy life’s small pleasure, your work is probablyhurting your life.For many years, I fo rgot that lesson I’d learned as a kid on the loading dock. I was too busy making all the money I could.Well, I’ve relearned it. I hope I have time left to enjoy the success of others and to take pleasure in the day. That’s the heart of the watermelon. I have learned again to throw the rest away.61.Who would go to Bernie’s place when the first watermelons arrived every summer?A. The writer’s dadB. The writerC. Bernie’s dadD. The writer and his dad62. We learned from the second paragraph that the writer and his father were feeling ______.A. relaxedB. worriedC. hungryD. lonely63. How did the writer and his father eat the watermelon?A. They ate it in a polite way.B. They only ate its best part.C. They ate every part of it.D. They shared only one piece.64. In the eyes of the writer’s father, Bernie ______.A. was just a rich businessmanB. worked hard all the timeC. lived a rich but healthy lifeD. knew how to make money65. The underlined part “the heart of the watermelon” in the last paragraph means ______.A. the best part of the watermelonB. the writer’s busy lifeC. the writer’s decision of making moneyD. the writer’s hope of enjoying life答案：BADCA BAACB DABCD江苏省泰兴市实验初级中学2017-2018学年八年级下学期期中考试英语试题四、阅读理解(15分)AI moved here three years ago, and because of my business, I needed to fly both to Taiwan and the United States often. When I traveled alone, I felt lonely because I couldn’t speak English well. I made a decision that I had to study English and very hard.I like to be in Rita Colina’s class at the Chinese Community Center in Houston. I have manychances to speak and talk to others. Before I came to the class, I always walked away when I met any foreigner. I know that pronunciation, grammar and conversation are very important for me so I came to this class. It’s completely different now. I try to communicate with Americans in English by myself. It’s really great for a person like me to live here. Now I like to talk to foreigners. I like to go to American supermarkets, Starbuck’s coffee shops and the post office. I can drive anywhere I like to go because I know the road signs. Not only the skill of life becomes more flexible (灵活的), but also I really like to live here.I learn English in four ways: First of all, I listen to what the teacher teaches in class. Then I keep speaking during the class. Second, I do my homework right away when I get home. I memorize at leas t five vocabulary words everyday. Third, I listen to American radio stations, and I watch the news channels and other American programs with my family every day. I ask them whatever I don’t know. Finally, I go to American stores as often as possible so I will have more chances to learn more new words, and find any chance to talk to Americans in English.Anyway, the most important thing is not to be afraid to open your mouth. It doesn’t matter even though you speak incorrectly. It’s a good start. I’m very grateful for the teaching and encouragement from Ms. Colina. That is the key to the door of learning English for me.46. The writer flew both to Taiwan and the United States ______.A. as a teacherB. on businessC. as a language learnerD. on vacation47. The writer felt lonely when she travelled alone because ______.A. she was not very good at EnglishB. she couldn’t speak Chinese wellC. she missed her parents very muchD. she knew nobody on the plane48. The writer ______ before coming to Rita Colina’s class.A. used to talk to foreignersB. could drive anywhere she wanted to goC. would not like to meet any foreignerD. practiced English in supermarkets, coffee shops and the post office49. The underline d word “grateful” in the last paragraph means “______”.A. beautifulB. carefulC. successfulD. thankful50. The passage is mainly about ______.A. how the writer moved to AmericaB. the writer’s story in learning EnglishC. something abo ut Rita Colina’s classD. Ms Colina’s ways of teaching EnglishBJim is forty years old. He has two children and they are growing up fast. His daughter Lisa is 16 and his son Harry is already in a middle school. As they grow bigger, their house seems to get smaller. So they want to sell some of their things and give the money to a children's home.They have already cleared out a lot of things from the house. Each of them has decided to sell five things they no longer use. Harry was quite sad at first. He has played with his old toys for a long time, but he still wanted to keep them. For example, he has owned a model plane since his fourth birthday, and he played with it al most every week until he was about seven. And he didn't want to lose his toy monkey, either. He slept next to the monkey every night when he was a child. Lisa was more understanding, but she also felt sad to part with certain toys.As for Jim, he didn't want to give up his football shirts, but, to be honest, he has not played for a while now. He is getting older, too!51. Why did Jim's family want to sell some of their things?A. Some of their things are useless.B. They want to move to a bigger house.C. Their house is not big enough for the family.D. Some of their things are no longer in fashion.52. What do they want to do with the money?A. Buy some new toys.B. Give it to a children's home.C. Help the homeless people.D. Go travelling.53. How did Harry feel at first?A. Unhappy.B. Excited.C. Angry.D. Full of joy.54. Which word has the same meaning with the underlined words "part with"?A. loseB. haveC. cleanD. check55. What did Jim give up?A. A model plane.B. A toy monkey.C. Football shirts.D. Nothing.CIn Canada and the United States, people enjoy entertaining (请客) at home. They often invite friends for a meal, a party or just for coffee and conversation.Here are the kinds of things people say when they invite someone to their homes: “Would you like to come over for dinner this Saturday night?” “Hey, we’re having a party on Friday. Can you come?”To answer an invitation, either say thank you and accept or say you are sorry and give an excuse. “Thanks, I’d love to. What time would you like me to come?” or “Oh, sorry. I’ve t ickets for a movie.”Sometimes, however, people in the west use expressions (语句) that sound like invitation but which are not real invitation. For example, “Please come over for a drink sometime.” “Why not get together for a party sometime?” or “Why don’t you come over and see us sometime soon?” They are really polite ways of ending a conversation. They are not real invitations because they don’t mention(提到、涉及) a certain time or date. They just show that the person is trying to be friendly. To answer expressions like this, people just say, “Sure, that would be great!” or “OK! Thanks.”So next time when you hear what sounds like an invitation, listen carefully. Is it a real invitation or is the person just being friendly?56.Where do Canadians and Americans usually invite their friends for meals according to (根据) the article?A. At homeB. At the parkC. At the restaurantD. At the hotel57. Which of the following is NOT a real invitation?A. Please go to the concert with me some day.B. Would you like to have a cup of tea with us this evening?C. I’ve two tickets here. Can you go to the cinema with me?D. If you are free now, let’s go to Wang’s for a drink.58. If people s ay, “Why not get together for a party sometime?”, you just say “__________”A. I’m glad to hear that.B. How about this evening?C. Oh, sorry. I’m very busy.D. That’s great. Thanks.59. People use “an unreal invitation” in order to show __________.A. th ey’re trying to be friendlyB. they’re trying to make friends with othersC. they have already got ready for a partyD. their spirit of generosity60. The passage is mainly about __________.A. entertainment at homeB. real invitations or notC. expressions of starting a conversationD. ways of ending a conversation 答案：BACDB CBAAC AADAB。

How we spend our time can be divided into three groups, or "jars". These would be the necessary tasks jar, the voluntary tasks jar and the happiness jar. Every day, we spend time filling the necessary tasks jar. We fill this jar with useful things, like making money, housework, buying food. We then fill another jar with voluntary tasks. These are things that we do for others, but we may not enjoy them, such as taking children to activities and cooking family meals. T hose jars are very important. If we don’t fill them each day, our family won’t be happy.However, we often forget to fill the third jar — the happiness jar. This is the jar that we fill with activities to make us happy. Is your happiness jar sometimes empty at the end of the day? We all have days like that. Between doing all the necessary and voluntary tasks, time flies quickly and before we know it, it is ti me for bed.That is why each day we try to fill our happiness jar. Most days, I fill mine by going to the ballroom dance(社交舞) class with my husband and daughter. Be tween the music, the dancing and the friendship among the students, I always leave classes happier than when I entered.Music is another way to make me happy. This week, I was glad to take part in an orchestra(管弦乐队) practice at my church(教堂). A small group of us met to practice Christmas music for a church service. It was a time of fun, friendship and music making. At the end of the evening, my happiness jar was full. This week, think about how you spent your time. Are you doing enough activities that bring joy to your life? Or are the necessary and voluntary tasks eating up all your time? Try to find ways to achieve a balance(获得平衡) among your three jars. At the end of the day, hopefully we’ve done all we can to make su re that our happiness jar is filled.【小题1】How many groups can we divide our time into?A．One.B．Two.C．Three.D．Four.【小题2】Which of the following is TRUE about the writer?A．She is always unhappy when she goes to the dance club.B．She goes to the ballroom dance class to make herself happy every day.C．Dancing and music are the two usual ways that she makes herself happy.D．She takes her husband and daughter to dance club in order to make them happy.【小题3】What can we do to fill the happiness jar according to the passage?A．Wash clothes B．Watch a filmC．Mop the floor D．Look after children【小题4】What can we know from Paragraph 4 and 5?A．The writer took a class at church to practice music.B．The writer finds friendship is important for her happiness.C．The writer was invited to join an orchestra as she is good at singing.D．The writer was going to listen to music at church at Christmas.【小题5】The writer wrote this article mainly to _______________.A．tell readers how to relax in daily lifeB．tell readers the best way to use their timeC．remind readers to take time to make themselves happyD．tell the importance of necessary and voluntary tasks四、根据中/英文提示填空20. 根据句意和汉语提示写出单词, 完成句子。
