2025-2026学年（上）延边州八年级质量检测英语

1、阅读下面短文，将划线部分译成英文或中文。

Recently, 1. a popular song called Good morning, Longhui（《早安隆回》）has drawn wide attention from the public online. Yuan Shuxiong, its songwriter from Longhui County（县）, seems to have become famous overnight and reached the peak of his career at the age of 51 for this magic song.

His increasing popularity has brought him to the highlights of the stages of Hunan TV and CCTV and drawn much attention from the public. Subsequently（随后）, 2. all kinds of discussions about him are going up continuously. Some think he has achieved his success all by luck. This encouraging song just matches perfectly with the short videos of Lionel Messi winning the Championship in Qatar World Cup, which makes the song as well as its writer widely known to netizens. Some believe he has copied others’ works like Singing and Smiling, while others think 3. 他的成功源于多年的努力和永不放弃的精神. As early as the year of 2007, Yuan Shuxiong had already created many wonderful songs of his own, such as Bitter Coffee, Baby in Love, Love You This Way. 4. But none of them could be as popular as this one.

As a matter of fact, this 51-year-old musician once went through many “ups and downs” before becoming famous. He drifted（漂泊）for many years in different cities and even his former wife left him when he was in his darkest days. 5. 幸运的是，他克服了所有困难并最终实现梦想。Just as the proverb goes, “Chances always favor（青睐）the prepared mind.” Let’s expect him to create more great works for his fans and hometown he loves deeply!

24、Dear editor（编辑）,

Once I went to the post office to buy some magazines. When I was ready to leave, someone came nearer to me. I looked up and saw him old and thin, with a dirty coat on. I could see easily that he was a worker. I stood a little farther from him. I was in my new red coat.

He said he wanted to send some money home, but he didn't know how to fill out the form. He asked me for help. "But you can ask the cashier（出纳员）on duty," I said to him.

"I have asked her. But I still don't understand what she told me. Would you please help me?" Just then, my mobile phone rang. It was an excuse to refuse him. Hopelessly and sadly, he gave up asking for me and tried to find someone else who would help him.

As I came out, I became nervous. How could I refuse someone who was in need of help, especially such an old worker? Was it because he was poor and dirty?

I want to say sorry to him in this newspaper. It's been on my mind for a long time. And I hope to feel better by doing this.

Yours,

Li Fang

25、“Did you go skating a lot last year?” I asked. Jen shook her head and looked at me. Finally she said, “On Thanksgiving, Mom and I always went to visit some friends who lived on a farm. I especially loved seeing their big turkeys.”

Until then, I didn’t think about how Jen felt. She had a new stepfather (继父) and stepbrother, and had a new town and home, too. Jen and her mom used to live near a lake where Dad and I went every summer, and she had to move up north with us. She had more changes than me.

Jen seemed sad, so I was busy thinking of some ways to cheer her up on Thanksgiving. I told her my plan and she was excited. First we made a huge snowball, and then a small snowball. Then we built a wall behind the big snowball as a tail. Jen mixed some food coloring with water, saying, “We can spray (喷) colors on the tail.” Our snow turkey had a red, blue, green, and yellow tail. We were so busy that we didn’t notice our parents come outside. Dad found a hat for the snow turkey, and Mom wrapped her scarf around its neck. 

“Thanks for cheering Jen up,” Mom said. “You’re a good brother, and you always come up with great ideas.’’ A happy feeling spread through me. I began to understand how much she cared about everyone in our new family.

26、How could we tell time if there were no watches or clocks anywhere in the world?

The sun was probably the world’s first “clock”, except in the far north, where the Eskimos(爱斯基摩人) live. There, it’s dark most of the winter, and light most of the summer. But in most of the world, people have used the sun for a clock. Even today, if you don’t have a clock, you still know that when the sun shines, its day, and when it’s dark, it’s night. The sun can also tell you if it’s morning, noon, or afternoon.

People who live near the sea can tell time from the tides. In the daytime, for about six hours, the water rises higher and higher on the beach. And then it goes down and down for about six hours. The same thing happens again at night. There are two high tides and two low tides every 24 hours.

Seamen on a ship learn how to tell time by looking at the moon and the stars. The whole sky is their clock.

In some places in the world the wind comes up at about the same time every day or changes direction or stops blowing. In these places the wind can be the clock.

A sand clock is an even better clock. If you had fine dry sand in a glass shaped like the one in the picture, you would have what is called an hourglass. The sand in the hourglass goes from the top part to the bottom part in exactly one hour. When the hourglass is turned over, the sand will take another hour to go back again.

【1】According to the passage, there are ________ ways to tell time besides the clock and watch.

A．3

B．4

C．5

D．6

【2】The Eskimos in the far north can’t use the sun for a clock because ________.

A．they know very little about the sun

B．the sun there never goes down in winter

C．it’s too cold for them to go out to watch the sun

D．it has long dark winters and long light summers

【3】What’s the best title for the passage?

A．Different Ways to Tell Time

B．Useful Machines to Tell Time

C．The History of the Clock

D．The Development of the Clock

27、 【1】 But I could never understand her habit of cheering while we were walking in the race.

We walked together all over the town and entered half-marathons（半马拉松）, 26 miles.   【2】

I carried it to the starting line along. It had twenty-six cheering ideas, one for each mile. But I wasn’t really planning to slow myself down with all those ideas. I had to keep her list because I didn’t want to hurt Tina’s feelings.

【3】  I looked at Tina’s cheering list when I checked my watch. At the top of the list was only one word: “Yourself.” I thought it did give me a good start to the race. While I was at it, I took the chance to thank her for the strength the list brought to me. By the time I finished the second mile, my parents were cheering me on by the side of the road. It just so happened that “family” was the next on Tina’s cheering list. At that moment, I had plenty of things to be thankful for.

【4】  But by the time I was close to the final mile, I was nearly out of breath. I didn’t know if I could make it another mile. Then I looked at the final idea on Tina’s list in my hand: “You can make it.”

【5】 I had thought the cheering list would slow me down. Instead it carried me to cross the finishing line.
