When you visit a Japanese friend’s home for the first time, there are many special
rules you need to follow—small mistakes might make others feel uncomfortable.
First, you must take off your shoes at the entrance. Japanese people believe shoes carry
dirt from outside, so wearing them indoors is seen as rude. You should put your shoes
in the shoe rack neatly, with the toes facing the door (it’s easier to put them on
when you leave).
Second, bowing is more than just a greeting. The degree of the bow shows different
levels of respect: a 15-degree bow is for saying “hello” or “thank you” to friends;
a 30-degree bow is used when you meet elders or apologize; a deep 45-degree bow is
only for serious situations like saying “I’m truly sorry”.
Third, gift-giving has strict taboos. You should never bring gifts in sets of four—because
the Japanese word for “four” sounds the same as the word for “death”. Also, gifts
should be wrapped nicely, but avoid white wrapping paper (it’s connected to funerals).
Common gifts include tea, cookies, or small plants.
At dinner, wait for the host to say “itadakimasu” (which means “I will receive thisfood”) before you start eating. Never stick your chopsticks upright in the rice—this
looks like the incense sticks used at funerals, which is a serious taboo. If you need to
put chopsticks down, place them on the chopstick rest, not on the table.
题目
1. Why do Japanese people ask guests to take off shoes indoors?
A. To keep the floor clean.
B. To make guests feel relaxed.
C. To show that shoes are not expensive.
D. To follow a new popular trend.
2. A 30-degree bow is proper when you ______.
A. greet a close friend
B. say sorry to an old man
C. thank a classmate
D. meet a stranger for the first time
3. The word “taboos” in Paragraph 3 probably means ______.
A. special gifts
B. polite behaviors
C. forbidden things
D. funny stories
4. What can we infer from the passage?
A. White is a lucky color in Japan.
B. “Itadakimasu” is said after eating.
C. Chopsticks can be put on the table freely.
D. Giving 4 cookies as a gift is impolite.
5. What’s the main idea of the passage?

B. Rules for visiting a Japanese home.

Many people think Día de los Muertos (the Day of the Dead) is a sad festival, but in
Mexico, it’s a joyful time to remember and honor deceased family members.
This festival is held on November 1st and 2nd. Families clean the graves of their loved
ones and decorate them with colorful flowers (like marigolds, which are believed to
guide the dead back home), photos, and favorite foods of the deceased. Some families
also build “ ofrendas” (altars) in their homes— these altars are filled with the
person’s favorite drinks, candies, and even toys (if the deceased was a child).
When you visit a Mexican family during Día de los Muertos, there are some rules to
follow. First, never say “I’m sorry for your loss”—the festival is about celebrating the
lives of the dead, not feeling sad. Second, you should accept the food the host offers
you. Refusing it is seen as impolite, even if you’re full. The most common food at this
time is “calaveras de azúcar” (sugar skulls), which are decorated with bright colors—
they represent the joy of the festival, not fear of death.Also, it’s good to talk about the deceased family members. Asking questions like
“What was your grandma’s favorite food?” shows that you respect their traditions.
Avoid talking about sad things; instead, share happy stories if you have any.
题目
1. What is the true meaning of Día de los Muertos in Mexico?
A. A time to feel sad about the dead.
B. A festival to celebrate the lives of deceased loved ones.
C. A day to clean graves and say goodbye to the dead.
D. A time to buy sugar skulls for children.
2. Marigolds are used in the festival because ______.
A. they are the cheapest flowers
B. they have bright colors
C. they are believed to lead the dead back home
D. they are the deceased’s favorite flowers
3. The word “deceased” in Paragraph 1 probably means ______.
A. dead
B. living
C. young
D. old
4. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Refusing the host’s food is polite.
B. Sugar skulls are a symbol of fear.
C. Talking about happy stories of the dead is welcome.
D. “I’m sorry for your loss” is a proper sentence to say.
5. What’s the writer’s attitude towards Día de los Muertos?
A. It’s a scary festival.
B. It’s a joyful and meaningful tradition.
C. It’s a waste of time and money.
D. It’s too complicated to understand.
十、完形填空
Last summer, I visited my Thai friend Maya in Bangkok. Before the trip, Maya told me
to 1 ______ a small gift—she said it’s a common way to show kindness to hosts. I
picked a box of Chinese tea, hoping her family would like it.
When I arrived at Maya’s house, she greeted me with a “wai” (a traditional Thai
greeting: pressing palms together). She taught me that the 2 ______ of the hands
shows respect: hands at chest level for friends, and higher for elders. I tried to make
the 3 ______ “wai” and Maya laughed, saying I did well.
Maya’s mother led me into the living room and asked me to 4 ______ my shoes at
the door. “Shoes bring dirt indoors,” she explained. I 5 ______ put my shoes next to
others, and she gave me soft slippers. Then she offered me a glass of coconut water—
cold and sweet, it was exactly what I needed on the hot day.
At lunch, the table was full of dishes: green curry, pad thai, and fresh mango. Maya
warned me not to 6 ______ food with my left hand. “We use the left hand for
unclean tasks,” she said quietly. I nodded and used my right hand to 7 ______ somecurry with rice. When Maya’s father asked if I wanted more, I said “yes” even
though I was almost full—I didn’t want to 8 ______ him by saying I’d had enough.

and knees—temple rules require visitors to dress modestly. I borrowed a scarf from her

allowed. I watched locals leave small flowers at the statue, and Maya said it’s their
way to 11 ______ their wishes.
When I left in the evening, Maya’s family walked me to the door. I 12 ______
goodbye and made a “wai” again. Maya smiled and said, “Remember, 13 ______
small customs helps you get closer to people here.” Her words made me think:
learning about other cultures isn’ t just about 14 ______ rules— it’ s about

1. 空1:答案after
解析:引导时间状语从句,表“在……之后”。“Lily多年梦想去英国”是长期状态,“看
到英国文化纪录片”是后续发生的、强化梦想的动作,用after明确“看片→更向往”的时
间递进;若填before(“看片前梦想”),虽事实成立,但无法体现“纪录片加深向往”
的逻辑,故after为唯一合理选项。
2. 空2:答案before
解析:引导时间状语从句,表“在……之前”。“花三周学习英国习俗”发生在“登机前
往英国”之前,这一动作顺序恰好呼应后文“担心犯尴尬错误”——提前学习正是为了规避失误;若填after(“登机后学习”),则与“担心出错”的心理矛盾,语法虽对但语境
不成立,故填before。
3. 空3:答案when
解析:引导时间状语从句,表“当……时”。when的核心用法是搭配“短暂动作”(如
knocked“敲门”,是瞬间完成的动作),此处“敲门瞬间心跳加快”的即时反应,完全匹
配when的用法;若填 while,while需搭配“延续动作”(如 was knocking),但原句
“knocked”是一般过去时(表短暂动作),故when正确。
4. 空4:答案as soon as
解析:引导时间状语从句,表“一……就”。“开门”与“说‘Welcome’”是几乎无间
隔的即时动作,as soon as能精准体现“动作衔接的快速性”(如“门一打开就问候”),
比when(仅表“当……时”)更贴合日常交际中“即时回应”的礼仪场景,故填as soon
as。
5. 空5:答案while
解析:引导时间状语从句,表“当……时”。while的核心用法是搭配“延续动作”(如
was putting“摆盘子”,是过去进行时,表持续进行的动作),此处“Mrs. Smith摆盘子
的过程中,Lily想帮忙”,用while体现两个动作的同时性;若填when,虽语法可行,但
while更强调“延续动作期间的穿插事件”,与“was putting”的动作属性更匹配,故填
while。
6. 空6:答案unless
解析:引导条件状语从句,表“除非”(相当于“if not”)。语境逻辑是“Lily想帮忙,
但只有主人邀请才能帮”,即“如果主人不邀请,就不能帮忙”,用 unless恰好体现这一
“否定条件”;若填if(“如果主人邀请,就不能帮忙”),则逻辑完全相反,违背语境,
故填unless。
7. 空7:答案after
解析:引导时间状语从句,表“在……之后”。“所有人坐下”是“Lily不开始吃饭”的前
置动作,用after明确“先集体落座、再等待用餐信号”的餐桌流程,符合“集体活动需同
步节奏”的礼仪;若填before(“所有人坐下前不吃饭”),则动作顺序混乱(未落座时
本就不会吃饭),故填after。
8. 空8:答案until
解析:引导时间状语从句,构成“not...until”固定结构(表“直到……才”)。语境中
“Lily不开始吃饭”,直到“Mrs. Smith拿起刀叉”才动筷,完美匹配“not...until”的核心
用法(如“我直到爸爸回来才看电视”),这是八年级重点语法点;若填其他连词(如
before),则无法体现“等待主人信号”的逻辑,故填until。
9. 空9:答案while
解析:引导时间状语从句,表“同时”。“右手拿刀”与“左手拿叉”是用餐时同步进行
的动作,用while衔接两个“并行的延续动作”,精准体现“双手同时持餐具”的状态;
若填 when,需调整句式(如“when she held the fork in her left hand”),原句
“held...while held...”的平行结构更简洁,故填while。
10. 空10:答案so
解析:构成“so...that”固定结构(引导结果状语从句,表“如此……以至于”)。语法规
则中,so后接“形容词/副词”,此处so修饰形容词nervous(“紧张的”),目的是强调
“紧张的程度”,为后文“差点洒饮料”的结果做铺垫;若填such,such后需接“名词”
(如such nervousness),与原句“nervous”(形容词)不匹配,故填so。
11. 空11:答案that解析:构成“so...that”固定结构,that的作用是“引出so所强调程度带来的结果”。此处
“so nervous”(如此紧张)的结果是“almost spilled her drink”(差点洒了饮料),
that是该结构的固定组成部分,无其他替代词,完全符合八年级“so+形容词+that+结果从
句”的用法,故填that。
12. 空12:答案if
解析:引导条件状语从句,表“如果”。语境中Lily犹豫“直接拿远处的面包是否礼貌”,
用if提出假设场景(“如果我直接伸手拿面包”),符合疑问句中“对未知情况的假设与
担忧”(如“如果我忘带作业,老师会说我吗”);若填 unless(“除非我直接拿面
包”),则逻辑不通(“除非直接拿,否则会被认为无礼”与后文“请人递面包”的规则
矛盾),故填if。
13. 空13:答案unless
解析:引导条件状语从句,表“除非”。语境逻辑是“想不被视作无礼,就应该请别人递
面包”,即“除非你想被认为无礼,否则就请人递面包”,用 unless体现这一“否定条
件”;若填if(“如果不想被认为无礼,就请人递面包”),虽语义接近,但unless更能
凸显“礼仪规则的强制性”,且与第 6题unless的用法呼应,强化对“否定条件”的记忆,
故填unless。
14. 空14:答案if
解析:引导条件状语从句,表“如果”。语境中“主人给你第二份食物”是假设的场景,
用if引出该场景下的应对方式(“说‘Just a little, thanks’”),符合“针对假设场景给
建议”的逻辑(如“如果下雨,我们就带伞”);若填 unless(“除非主人给你第二份食
物”),则建议内容(“说‘一点就好’”)与场景脱节,故填if。
15. 空15:答案if
解析:引导条件状语从句,表“如果”。用if提出假设行为(“一次吃太多”),并引出
该行为的负面后果(“可能显得贪婪”),清晰体现“行为→后果”的条件关系,契合餐
桌礼仪中“避免过量、保持得体”的要求;若填unless(“除非一次吃太多”),则后果
(“显得贪婪”)与行为逻辑颠倒(“除非吃太多,否则会显得贪婪”不符合常理),故
填if。
16. 空16:答案until
解析:引导时间状语从句,构成“not...until”结构(表“直到……才”)。语境中“Lily不
能离席”的状态持续到“所有人都吃完”,用 until体现英国礼仪中“集体用餐需同步离
席”的规则,与第8题“not...until”的用法形成呼应,强化对该结构的记忆;若填before
(“所有人吃完前不能离席”),虽语义接近,但“not...until”是标准语法结构,更符合
考试要求,故填until。
17. 空17:答案before
解析:引导时间状语从句,表“在……之前”。“做好准备”发生在“Lily来英国”之前,
这一动作顺序与前文第2题“登机前学习习俗”形成呼应,贯穿“提前准备规避失误”的
主线;时态上,八年级阶段允许用一般过去时(prepared/came)表“过去的先后动作”,
无需复杂的过去完成时(had prepared),语法正确且符合学生认知水平,故填before。
18. 空18:答案so
解析:构成“so...that”固定结构,so后接形容词confused(“困惑的”),强调“若没提
前准备,困惑程度会很深”。此处“so confused”是对“没准备”后果的程度描述,为后
文“不能享受热情招待”的结果做铺垫;若填 such,such 后需接名词(如 such
confusion),与“confused”(形容词)不匹配,故填so。
19. 空19:答案that解析:构成“so...that”固定结构,that引出“so confused”(如此困惑)带来的结果——
“couldn’t enjoy the warm welcome”(不能享受史密斯一家的热情招待)。用“负面
结果”反衬“提前准备”的重要性,与第 10-11题“so...that”的用法形成对比(前者是
“紧张→失误”,后者是“困惑→影响体验”),巩固对该结构的理解,故填that。
四、

on。
3. 答案:in
解析:本题对应短语“have...in common(有共同之处)”,句子语境是“露西和莉莉在书
籍、音乐的喜好上有不少共同之处”,因此填介词in。
4. 答案:off
解析:本题对应短语“keep...off(使不碰到;使避开)”,句子语境是“餐桌礼仪要求吃
饭时让肘部不碰到餐桌”,因此填介词off。

D(有趣故事)均与语境不符,故排除。
4. 答案:D
解析:材料第三段提到“you should never bring gifts in sets of four”,即不能送4件一
组的礼物,由此可推断“送4块饼干作为礼物是不礼貌的”,符合D选项。A(白色在日本
是幸运色)错误,因为白色包装纸与葬礼相关;B(“itadakimasu”饭后说)错误,材料指
出这句话是饭前说;C(筷子可随意放桌上)错误,材料要求筷子需放在筷架上,故排除。
5. 答案:B

命”。A(为逝者悲伤)错误,材料指出节日并非悲伤;C(清理坟墓并告别)和D(给孩
子买糖骷髅)均为节日的局部活动,非核心意义,故排除。
2. 答案:C

可知,金盏花被认为能引导逝者回家,这是其在节日中的用途。A(最便宜的花)、B(颜
色鲜艳)、D(逝者喜欢的花)均未在材料中提及,故排除。

其象征节日的欢乐;D(说“我为你的损失感到遗憾”)错误,材料明确禁止这句话,故
排除。
5. 答案:B
解析:作者在文中多次用“joyful”“celebrating”“respect their traditions”等积极词汇

的传统”。A(可怕的节日)、C(浪费时间和金钱)、D(复杂难懂)均与作者态度不符,故排除。
