2024-2025学年（上）塔城地区八年级质量检测英语

1、   It was the summer before my third grade. Our girls’ softball team (垒球队) was facing real pitchers (投手) for the first time. Before that, we could just hit the ball on the tee (球座). 1.当老师开始投球时，击球对我来说变得困难。I missed every single pitch. From the sideline (边线), I heard my teammate Emily laughing at me. My face got hot and my throat felt like it had a softball stuck in. At that moment, I was starting to hate playing softball.

2. The next afternoon, when it was time to play the game. I told Mum I was sick. She allowed me to relax for a while. 3.于是我去了房间，躺在床上。This was difficult for me because I was fine and just wanted to avoid softball.

Soon Mum came in and said, “Time to go!” She didn’t even ask if I felt better. 4. I imagined Emily laughing from the sideline, and suddenly I really did feel sick to my stomach. I began crying loudly. Still, Mum pulled my team T-shirt over my head. She said, “You have to play for the rest of the season, and only after that we can talk about whether you’ll continue next year.” She added that practice was what I needed, not giving up. She promised to practice with me.

I got two hits that afternoon, and Emily didn’t make a sound. 5. Every week after that, I practiced at home until I got to be one of the best hitters on the team.

That experience taught me being afraid is part of life, and I can do whatever is expected of me if I keep working and practicing.

22、B

Many people think of bully (欺凌) as one child pushing or hitting another, but bullying is not only physical. When I was in junior high, the girls in my class would laugh at me or ask questions designed to embarrass (使….窘迫) me. Once a girl looked at me and shouted loudly, " I don't want to sit next to her!" Their comments (评价) didn't hurt me physically, but they did make me sad.

Bullying is a common problem in schools, and some adults even have to deal with it at work. But anyone can take action to stop it.

Be kind

You may not think of yourself as a bully, but do you make jokes at others' expense (消费) ? If the other person isn't laughing, your words or actions may hurt more than you think. Many bullies were once victims (受害者) of bullying and now bully others to feel powerful. If that's you, don't hurt others, but treat others well. Being kind can truly make you powerful.

Speak up

If you notice one person bullying another, please tell them to stop. Many bullies are motivated (刺激) by a desire to look cool, so if you tell them you are not cool, then they'll stop.

Be confident

If you're being bullied, don't try it face it alone; but ask a parent or other trusted adult for help. Similarly, in places where bullying happens, stay close to a friend since bullies often target people who are alone. When you're being bullied, walk away calmly. If you don't seem scared, the bully may lose interest in you.

Remember that what is happening it not your mistake. You are valuable (有价值的) for who you are.

【1】Why did the girl say " I don't want to sit next to her"?

A.Because she is trying to express her love to me.

B.Because she is trying to hurt my feeling.

C.Because she is trying to show her voice.

【2】What is TURE according to the passage?

A.Bullying is a common problem in schools.

B.If the other person isn't laughing at your joke, he/she must feel nothing.

C.What happens to you is always your mistake.

【3】If you were bullied before, what is the right way to make yourself powerful according to the passage?

A.By bullying others. B.By telling others. C.By being kind.

【4】What can you do when you see the bully?

A.You can stay where you are.

B.You can argue with them.

C.You can try to stop them.

【5】What is the attitude (态度) of the author to those bullies?

A.Appreciative (欣赏的) B.Helpful. C.Unacceptable.

23、We are twin sisters. Being a twin is fun!

Most of the time, people look at us in surprise when we are walking down the street. People can’t tell one of us from the other. Some people like to guess which of us is older or younger, but it’s hard to give the right answer. Even our parents sometimes called us by the wrong names when we were young!

You may have heard of “brood telepathy” (心灵感应) between twins. There are many movies about it. I can tell you that it’s real. We both love reading books. We also love traveling somewhere quiet. And we get the very same scores (分数) on exams!

We look just like one person. But there are also many differences between us. One difference is that one of us has a bigger face than the other. Our personalities are different, too. One of us doesn’t like to talk much while the other is more outgoing.

Because we spend most of our time playing with each other, we both have few other good friends. But we don’t need to worry about that, because we are not only the best sisters but also the best friends.

【1】Most of the time, people feel ________ to see the twin sisters in the street.

A．surprised

B．boring
