2026年课堂作业武汉出版社八年级英语下册人教版第17页答案
C
Whether we're young or old, rich or poor, we have one thing in common: The moon has always looked down at each of us when it lights up the night sky.
Just like a mirror, the moon reflects the sun's light. It can also reflect people's feelings. This is probably why the moon is always popular among Western and Chinese music, poems and other forms of literature. So when we look at the moon, what exactly do we see looking back at us?
Well, that depends on who's looking.
The ancient Greek poet Sappho, for example, saw the moon as a woman who lit up space with her beauty. Later in England, however, the moon's image was completely different. In the Middle Ages, English people often drank to get away from difficult life. In their eyes, the moon was a man who liked drinking. In London, at least three pubs were named Man in the Moon. It's probably because the bright moon at night looks like a man's red face after drinking. A popular song sung in pubs at that time even went, "Our man in the moon drinks wine ..."
★ Chinese Tang Dynasty poet Li Bai's Quiet Night Thoughts reads, "I look up at the bright moon, and then I look down and think of home." Similarly, Zhang Jiuling wrote in another poem, "Over the sea grows the moon bright. We share this moment under its light." So in Chinese culture, when people look at the moon, they may miss their hometown or someone. Very interesting, right?

解析

【解析】
61. 根据文中“Just like a mirror, the moon reflects the sun's light.”可知“reflects”意为“反射”,对应能体现该含义的选项C。
62. A选项中“ancient Spain”与原文“England”不符;B选项“always be seen as good things”表述错误,中世纪英国人认为月亮是爱喝酒的人;C选项是中国文化中月亮的寓意,并非西方;D选项对应原文第四段“The ancient Greek poet Sappho, for example, saw the moon as a woman who lit up space with her beauty.”,表述正确,故选D。
63. 前文介绍西方文化中月亮的意象,后文讲述中国唐朝诗人关于月亮的诗句,B选项“月亮在中国诗歌中也是常见主题”能自然衔接上下文,A仅提及李白,C侧重赏月,D介绍诗人,均不符合语境,故选B。
64. 诗句“Over the sea grows the moon bright. We share this moment under its light.”意为“海上生明月,天涯共此时”,对应能体现海上明月、人们共赏此景的选项B。
65. 文章分别介绍了古希腊、中世纪英国、中国文化中月亮的不同意象,A选项“不同文化中月亮的意象”符合文章主旨;B“探月”、C“赞美月亮的方式”、D“不同时代人与月亮的关系”均偏离主题,故选A。
