2026年初中必刷题八年级英语上册沪教版第120页答案
B
[2026 辽宁沈阳调研] Numbers are everywhere in our world. They do much more than just count things. They help us understand life and solve difficult problems.
Science & Health
Numbers keep us safe and healthy. Builders use special numbers like 3.14(π)to make strong bridges that won’t fall down. Doctors use numbers like 37℃(normal body temperature)and 60~100 beats per minute(normal heartbeat)to check health.

Numbers tell us about people. Did you know that Asia has around 4.8 billion people? That’s more than half of all people on Earth! Leaders use these numbers to decide how many schools to build. In bad times, numbers help decide how much food or medicine is needed. Stores even use numbers to know which products sell well.
Everyday Uses
We see numbers every day. When baking a cake, you need twice as much flour as sugar. At stores, a 20% discount means you can pay less money. On the road, signs like “60 km/h” tell drivers the maximum speed. Dates also use numbers, like “26th June”.
There are also some fun facts about numbers. People think differently about some numbers. In China, people believe that the number 8 means good luck. Meanwhile, in some Western countries, people think 13 is unlucky. Numbers help us describe everything—from small things to huge stars. They are the world’s special language.

C
[2026广东深圳期中] Living in a foreign culture can be exciting, but it can also be confusing. A group of Americans who taught
English in other countries recently discussed their experiences. They agreed that misunderstandings and miscommunication(错误传达)were always possible, even over something as simple as "yes" and "no".
On her first day in Micronesia in the Pacific, Lisa thought people weren't paying any attention to her. The day was hot. She went into a store and asked, "Do you have cold drinks?" The woman there didn't say anything. Lisa repeated the question but still the woman said nothing. She later learnt that the woman had answered her. She had raised her eyebrows(眉毛), which in Micronesia means "yes".
Jan remembered an experience she had in Bulgaria, a country in Europe. She went to a restaurant that was known for its cabbage. She asked the waiter, "Do you have cabbage today?" He nodded his head. Jan waited, but the cabbage never came. In that country, a nod means "no".
Tom had a similar problem when he arrived in India. After explaining something in class, he asked his students if they understood. They answered with different nods and shakes of the head. He thought some people had not understood, so he explained again. When he asked again, they did the same thing. He soon found out that his students did understand. In India, people nod and shake their heads in different ways depending on where they come from. You have to know where a person is from to understand whether they mean "yes" or "no".
