来宾2025学年度第二学期期末教学质量检测初三英语

1、阅读下面的短文，将划线部分译成英文或中文。

With the development of mobile phone apps, people have more chances to communicate with others in the world through sharing videos online. 1. 抖音是最受欢迎的 app 之一。

Many people think it is a doublet-sided sword(双刃剑) to use Douyin. 2. While some people get a lot of joy in using the app, others think it is not good to use it. Some people, especially the young, are easy to be lost in the app. 3. They spend hours recording (录制) and watching videos. 4. 这真是浪费时间 and harms their physical and mental health.

To deal with this problem, Douyin has developed an anti-addiction system (反上瘾系统). It has two new functions (功能) — a reminder(提示) that suddenly appears after 90 minutes of continuous use and a feature that locks the app by itself after daily use over two hours. I think it is a useful way to prevent addiction to the app. 5. Apps like Douyin may bring us joy, but we should use them properly.

22、   Every time when I look at the moon, I wish I could go there. Do you wish you could fly to the moon in a spaceship one day?

For hundreds of years, men have wanted to travel to the moon. When they looked at the moon, they asked many questions, Was the moon hot or cold? Were there any plants or other living things there? There were many, many other questions.

We know much about the moon now. Scientists have studied the moon for many years and have found out many facts. So far, some men have got to the moon on spaceships.

Scientists have found that the moon is much smaller than the earth. It is about one quarter the size of the earth. It is traveling round the earth all the time. There are not any plants or other living things on the moon, because there is no air or water there.

Days and nights on the moon are very long. One day on the moon is as long as two weeks on the earth. One night is also as long as two weeks on the earth. In the day the moon is very hot. At night it is very cold. The moon is much hotter and much colder than the earth.

23、   I was traveling alone through the UK. To reach places that were off the public transportation map, I bought an old car, which cost most of my money. I couldn't afford to stay in the hotel, so I had to camp in my car for the rest of the trip.

One morning I awoke in my old car on a country road in Ireland and saw a single house. The water in my thermos（保温瓶）had gone cold, so I knocked on the door of the house. A woman opened it. I asked her for some hot water. But she wouldn't let me get away with just that! I was invited indoors. She asked me to sit at the table and have breakfast with her family. They filled my thermos before I left.

I was greatly moved. And I decided to pass the kindness on. The other day I met a young man who had been driving around to look for a parking lot. He looked increasingly upset. I was glad that I was able to point one out to him. His thankful smile was the hugest reward（奖赏）for me.

24、It was nearly dark, the sun was dropping down the mountains far away. Little Tom came back home with tears in his eyes.

“What’s the matter, Tom? How’s your trip?” his mother asked with a big smile. “I failed. The mountain is so high and full of big or small stones on the way. I still went ahead. But I was tired and it was so late that I had to come back.” Tom cried. “It doesn’t matter, you are only 14 years old after all. You will have another chance.” his mother said. “But, standing at the top of the mountain is my dream!” Tom said. His father came over and asked, “Did you see the green trees on your way to the mountain?” “Sure, and there are a lot of beautiful flowers by the side of the road,” Tom answered. “Did you hear the birds singing?” his father asked. “There were many kinds of birds singing in the trees, and the sound was very sweet,” Tom said. “Did you feel the beauty of nature?” his father asked. “Yes, the blue sky, the white clouds, the green trees and the colorful flowers made a nice picture.” Tom answered. “That’s enough!” his father smiled and said, “Please remember, son. For often, getting what you expect is not the most important thing. Although you didn’t reach the top of the mountain, you got a lot on the way.”

25、   As far as I know, China, with 9,600,000 square kilometers, has the largest population in A【1】 (亚洲). The eastern part faces the Pacific Ocean. It has many endangered animals. The list i【2】 (包括) the huge whales living deep in the sea, the “ships of the desert”—camels and so on. China is also pandas′ birthplace. According to panda keepers′ r【3】 (调查), an adult panda can weigh 100 kilos or so and eat about 10 kilos of bamboo a day. To p【4】 (保护) the wild animals, our government has built many nature reserves. 

The excitement of touring attracts many foreign t【5】 (旅行者) to visit China every year. Feel free to have a tour, and you′ll find many famous places, such as the Great Wall, the longest man–made wall in the world. It′s more than 6,000 kilometers long and w【6】 (宽的) enough at the top for five horses or ten men to walk side by side. It′s very steep and amazing. Be careful not to fall over on the Great Wall. 

The Himalayas are amazing. They run along the s【7】 (西南的) part. Qomolangma is the highest in the world, which is up to 8,844.43 meters high. T【8】 (厚的) snow covers the top all year round.
