仁爱版2019-2020学年八年级上学期英语期末考试试卷D卷姓名:_ 班级:_ 成绩:_一、 阅读理解 (共3题；共28分)1. （10分）阅读理解Without proper planning, tourism can cause problems. For example, too many tourists can crowd public places that are also enjoyed by the local people of a country. If tourists create too much traffic, the local people become unhappy. They begin to dislike tourists and to treat them impolitely. They forget how much tourism can help the countrys economy(经济). It is important to think about the people of a destination country and how tourism affects them. Tourism should help a country keep the customs and beauty that attract tourists. Tourism should also advance(推进) the well-being (health and happiness) of local people.Too much tourism can be a problem. If tourism grows too quickly, people must leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry. This means that other parts of the countrys economy can suffer.On the other hand, if there is not enough tourism, people can lose jobs. Businesses can also lose money. It costs a lot of money to build large hotels, airports, air terminals, first-class roads and other support facilities needed by tourist attractions. For example, a major international-class tourism hotel can cost as much as 50 thousand dollars per room to build. If this room is not used most of the time, the owners of the hotel will lose money.Building a hotel is just a beginning. There must be many support facilities as well, including roads to get to the hotel, electricity, sewers to handle waste, and water. All of these support facilities cost money. If they are not used because there are not enough tourists, jobs and money are lost. （1）What is probably the reason if local people dislike tourists?A .

In fact, close to 50 percent of people are shy. Almost 80 percent of people feel shy at some point in their lives. These days, shyness is becoming more and more common. Now, scientists are trying to understand shyness. They have some interesting ideas about why people are shy.Is it possible to be born shy? Many scientists say yes. They say 15 to 20 percent of babies behave shyly. These babies are a little quieter and more watchful than other babies. Interestingly, these shy babies usually have shy parents. As a result, scientists think that some shyness is genetic.Family size might cause people to be shy as well. Scientists at Harvard University studied shy children. They found that 66 percent of them had older brothers and sisters. As a result, they became shy. At the same time, children with no brothers and sisters may be shy as well. Growing up alone, they often play by themselves. They are not able to learn the same social skills as children from big families.You may also be shy because of where you were born. When scientists studied shyness in different countries, they found surprising differences. In Japan, most people said they were shy. But in Israel, only one of three people said so. What explains the difference? One scientist says the Japanese and Israelis have different opinions of failure. In Japan, when people do not succeed, they feel bad about themselves. They blame（责备）themselves for their failure. In Israel, the opposite is true. Israelis often blame failure on outside reasons, such as family, teachers, friends, or bad luck. In Israel, freedom of opinion and risk taking are strongly supported. This may be why Israelis worry less about failure and are less shy.For shy people, it can be difficult to make friends, speak in class, and even get a good job. But scientists say you can get over your shyness. They suggest trying new things and practicing conversation. And dont forget-if you are shy, you are not the only one.（1）What is the passage mainly about?A . Happiness.B . Shyness.C . Kindness.D . Loneliness.（2）What does the underlined word “genetic” in paragraph 2 probably mean?A . Passed down from parents.B . Learned from friendsC . Taught by teachers.D . Made up by brothers.（3）Which one is not the reason of shyness according to the scientists ideas?A . Genetics.B . Family size.C . Failure.D . Birthplace.（4）What can you do if you want to get over your shyness?A . Try to know why you are shy.B . Talk to your parents and blame them.C . Try to learn some social skills.D . Try new things and practice conversation.二、 根据首字母、中文提示填空 (共8题；共8分)4. （1分）I thought to_（我自己）, “The dictionary cant be Lilys.” 5. （1分）My new t_number is 212-7188. 6. （1分）I plan to travel to several _(欧洲的) countries this summer vacation. 7. （1分）As tour g_, we will try our best to lead the visitors to enjoy the beauty along the trip. 8. （1分）She bought some new _(盘子) yesterday. 9. （1分）We have a lot of _(乐趣) playing sports. 10. （1分）Mark is the_(own) of the car.

But“How are you？”is also a very unusual question. It often doesnt need an answer. The person who asks“How are you?”hopes to hear the answer“Fine”even if the persons friend isnt fine. In fact, they are not really a question or an answer. They are simply other ways of saying “Hello”or“Hi”.Sometimes people also dont say exactly what they mean, For example, when someone asks“Do you agree？”the other person might think，“No，I disagree. I think youre wrong.” But it isnt very polite to disagree so strongly, so the other person might say,“Im afraid ”Its a nicer way to disagree.People also dont say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people. For example, many phone talks finish when one person says“I have to go now.”Often, the person who wants to finish the phone call gives an excuse,“Someones at the door.”The excuse might be real, or not. Perhaps the person who wants to finish the phone call simply doesnt want to talk anymore, but it isnt polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and it doesnt hurt the other person.When they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, thinking of finishing a talk, people dont say exactly what they are thinking about.
