【分析】
这是一道根据中文提示完成单词拼写的基础题型，解题时可以按照两步走的思路：第一步先根据给出的中文提示回忆对应的核心英文词汇，第二步结合空格前后的语法规则、固定搭配要求，确定单词的正确形式，避免出现词性错误、单复数错误、形式误用的问题，逐空校验后就能得到正确答案。
【解析】
1. 对应中文“身高”的英文名词是height，固定搭配be of medium height意为“中等身高”，完全符合句子语境，因此填height。
2. 对应中文“计划”的英文名词是plan，固定搭配make plans意为“制定计划”，此处用复数形式泛指多个假期安排，符合语境，因此填plans。
3. 对应中文“头脑；思想”的英文名词是mind，固定搭配open one's mind意为“开放思想、打开思路”，符合句子逻辑，因此填mind。
4. 对应中文“改变”的英文动词是change，空格前有情态动词can，情态动词后必须接动词原形，因此填change。
5. 对应中文“旅行”的英文动词是travel，此处是when引导的时间状语从句，主语为we，时态为一般现在时，谓语动词用原形即可，因此填travel。
【答案】
1. height 2. plans 3. mind 4. change 5. travel
【知识点】
固定短语搭配，名词单复数，动词形式规则
【点评】
本题属于初中低年级英语核心词汇的基础考察题，整体侧重对课内基础词义和常用搭配的检验，没有设置偏难怪的考点，提醒学生记忆单词时不能只孤立背诵中文释义，要结合常用搭配同步积累，留意名词单复数、情态动词后接动词原形这类细节要求，就能轻松拿到全分。

Ⅱ. Complete the sentences with the proper
forms of words given.
6. He (discover) the gift
his parents bought for him.
7. Words fail to describe how
(amazing) I feel about
the waterfalls.
8. You (refresh) your mind
if you experience something new.

6. discovered 7. amazed 8. will refresh

【分析】
我们逐个对三个小题梳理解题思路：
1. 第6题：先判断动作发生的时间，“发现父母为自己买的礼物”是已经发生在过去的动作，没有特殊时态提示，直接用一般过去时，将给定动词discover变为对应的过去式即可。
2. 第7题：判断空格修饰的对象是人称代词I，也就是人的主观感受，给定的amazing是-ing结尾的形容词，用于修饰事物表示“令人惊叹的”，修饰人表达“感到惊叹的”需要转换为-ed结尾的形容词，同时how后直接加形容词原级即可。
3. 第8题：先识别句子结构，这是if引导的条件状语从句，从句用一般现在时表将来，按照“主将从现”的规则，主句要使用一般将来时，把给定动词refresh变为对应的一般将来时结构即可。
【解析】
6. 本句表达过去发生的动作，使用一般过去时，动词discover的过去式为discovered，符合语境“他发现了父母给他买的礼物”。
7. 空格处修饰人的主观感受，amazing用于修饰事物表示“令人惊奇的”，表达人“感到惊奇的”要用amazed，符合“我对瀑布的震撼感难以用语言描述”的语义。
8. 本句是if引导的真实条件状语从句，遵循“主将从现”的时态规则，从句为一般现在时，主句需要用一般将来时，结构为will+动词原形，因此填will refresh。
【答案】
6. discovered 7. amazed 8. will refresh
【知识点】
动词时态变形
分词形容词辨析
主将从现规则
【点评】
本题是初中英语词形变换的基础典型题，考察的三个考点都是八年级阶段的核心基础内容，只要学生掌握了对应基础规则就可以顺利推导答案，需要注意区分-ed和-ing结尾分词形容词的修饰对象，避免出现修饰人错用amazing的常见错误。

see new places and meet different
people.
10. Did you make tour
plan for the weekend trip?
11. There are so many beautiful cities
the world to visit.
12. we start early, we can
reach the beach before sunset.
13. I love most about road
trips is the freedom to stop
anywhere.

9. of 10. a 11. in 12. If 13. What

【分析】
做这类无提示词的句子填空题，我们可以按照两步思路来解题：第一步先通读完整句子，优先排查是否是课内学过的固定短语搭配，大部分基础空都可以直接通过固定搭配得出答案；第二步如果没有明显固定搭配，就分析句子的句法结构，判断空格处需要的词性（介词、冠词、连词等），再结合句子语义选出符合逻辑的词，同时注意句首单词首字母要大写。
【解析】
9. 本句要表达“旅行的意义”，表示事物的所属关系，固定结构the meaning of sth. 意为“……的意义”，因此填of。
10. 本句中tour plan是可数名词单数，此处表泛指“一个旅行计划”，tour以辅音音素开头，搭配不定冠词a，同时固定短语make a plan意为“制定计划”，因此填a。
11. 此处表达“在世界上”，是课内核心固定搭配in the world，作地点状语，因此填in。
12. 空格前后是两个完整的句子，前半句是后半句实现的前提条件，引导条件状语从句表达“如果”的含义，句首首字母大写，因此填If。
13. 空格引导主语从句，在从句中作love的宾语，指代“我喜爱的事物”，引导名词性从句指代事物作宾语用what，句首首字母大写，因此填What。
【答案】
9. of 10. a 11. in 12. If 13. What
【知识点】
介词固定搭配，冠词用法，名词性从句
【点评】
本题整体偏向基础，多数空格都是中小学阶段的核心固定搭配，仅最后一题涉及简单的主语从句句法分析，适合用来巩固基础的词法和句法知识点，做完后可以将涉及的固定搭配整理积累，进一步提升英语语感。

Ⅳ. Reading comprehension.
Over one hundred years ago, there lived a man named Phileas Fogg. For many
years, he led a very quiet and routine life. Every day, he spent his time at his club—a
place where rich men went to meet their friends.
Every morning, he left his house at exactly 11:30 and walked 576 steps to his
club. Then he would eat lunch. After lunch, Fogg read three newspapers from cover
to cover. This was followed by supper. After that, he played cards with friends. At
midnight, he went home to bed. Then he repeated the same routine the next day.
But one Wednesday, everything changed. Fogg read some amazing news in his paper.
"A railway has opened in India. You can now travel around the world in 80 days."
"Listen to this," he announced to his friends. "It says it's possible to travel
around the world in only eighty days!"
Although his friends had a laugh over that, Fogg was sure he could do it.
When one friend bet that it couldn't be done, Fogg replied, "I will bet twenty
thousand pounds that I can go around the world in eighty days or fewer!"
Everyone thought he was crazy, but Fogg had made up his mind. "I shall be back
on 21st December," he said.
As soon as he arrived home, Fogg asked Passepartout, his butler(男管家), to
pack a small bag. Luckily, Passepartout worked very quickly. In less than ten
minutes, they were on their way to the station. And at 20:45 exactly, the train pulled
out. Fogg and Passepartout were off on their great adventure.
They were heading for the coast, where they could catch a boat to France. But
they were also heading straight into trouble.

【分析】
这是一篇记叙文类阅读理解，解题时我们可以先明确每道题的考点，再带着题干关键词回原文定位对应内容，逐一比对选项排除错误项得出答案：第14题判断开篇手法，直接看首段内容即可；第15题定位1、2段总结人物生活特点；第16题代词指代题需要找划线词前最近的核心事件；第17题直接定位打包行李的相关描述就能得到结果。
【解析】
14. 文章开篇第一句直接引出核心人物Phileas Fogg，后续紧接着介绍他的日常状态，作者是通过介绍主人公的方式开启故事的。B选项“树立好榜样”、C选项“描绘平和场景”、D选项“表达个人观点”均不符合开篇内容，因此选A。
15. 根据第1段“he led a very quiet and routine life”，结合第2段描述的他每天完全重复完全相同的行程、没有任何变化的内容，可知他的生活安静且单调无聊。A选项的exciting、C选项的dangerous、D选项的busy均无原文依据，因此选B。
16. 划线词it所在句的前文，Fogg刚向朋友们分享了“仅用80天就能环游世界”的消息，朋友们都不认可这件事，因此朋友打赌说“it couldn't be done”中的it指代的就是“80天内环游世界”这件事，对应A选项。
17. 根据原文倒数第二段“In less than ten minutes, they were on their way to the station.”可知，路路通打包完行李出发的时间不到十分钟，也就是在十分钟以内，对应C选项。
【答案】
14.A 15.B 16.A 17.C
【知识点】
记叙文细节定位，代词指代辨析，写作手法判断
【点评】
本篇阅读改编自经典文学作品《八十天环游地球》，所有题目均能在原文中找到明确的对应依据，没有设置强干扰项，重点考察学生快速抓取文本关键信息的能力，适合初中阶段的基础阅读训练，做这类题时要注意不要凭自己的主观印象答题，所有判断都要贴合原文给出的内容。
