人教版初二下册英语第五单元测试试题参考答案
Ⅰ.听力(略)
Ⅱ.21.B rain在句中作动词，应该由副词heavily修饰，因此选B。
22.D pick...up意为“把……捡起来”，宾语如果是代词，只能置于中间，又因为时态为一般过去时，故选D项。
23.C want，would like与decide后面接动词不定式作宾语，want后接动名词时，常表示被动，故此处只有C项符合题意。
24.B win表示赢得比赛项目;而beat表示赢得对手。
25.B rise为不及物动词，意为“升起”;the sun为第三人称单数，故B项符合题意。
26.D his illness是名词短语，应该用because of。
27.B 我们可用“联系上下文法”解答本题。how“如何”，提问方式;what“什么”，提问具体内容;where“哪里”，提问地点;why“为什么”，提问原因。根据答语“谈论节日”和选项可知，上句应意为“你能告诉我他们在做什么吗?”，故选B。
28.A over意为“超过”。
29.D 该对话中的答语是日期，因此应该用What’s the date进行提问。
30.C in silence是固定短语，意为“沉默，无声”。
31.D 我们可用“关键词法”解答本题。根据此句中的时间状语now判断，谓语应用现在进行时，其结构为“be+ v.-ing形式”，故选D。句意：“妈妈，爸爸在哪里?”“他现在在花园里栽花。”
32.A by the side of意为“在……附近”为固定短语。
33.D take off脱掉;take away拿走;take out拿出来;take down拆掉，拆毁。根据句意“所有的房子都被洪水_______ ”可知选择were taken down最合题意。
34.B 我们可用“联系上下文法”解答本题。由第一个人说的“昨天晚上我给你打电话，但你没有接”可知，第二个人应说“对不起，格雷丝。电话铃响时我正在看《我是歌手》”。表示过去某时正在发生的动作，要用过去进行时，其谓语动词的结构为“was/were+v.-ing”。此处主语是I，因此用was。故选B。
35.D 该复合句表示当一个动作发生时，另一个动作正在进行。主句时态为过去进行时，因此从句应该为一般过去时，故选D。
Ⅲ.36.D 该主从复合句表示当一个动作发生时，另一个动作正在进行。
37.B come over to him意为“来到他身边”。
38.B ask him the way to the station意为“向他问去车站的路”，由前面的came可知该句时态应为一般过去时，故选B。
39.A the way to...是固定短语，意为“去……的路”。
40.B want to do sth.意为“想做某事”;play a joke是固定短语，意为“开玩笑”。
41.B the other side of the road意为“马路的另一边”。
42.D a few minutes later意为“几分钟后”。
43.C 由上文“那儿只有一家书店”可知这名男子没有找到车站，又因上句时态为一般过去时态，故该句也应该用一般过去时。
44.C looked看;cried哭;laughed笑;jumped跳。由逻辑推理可知最佳答案为C。
45.A 由文意可知，男孩的意思是“在书店买张地图，你就会找到去车站的路”。因此答案为A。
Ⅳ.46.A 由第一段中的“When he was three, he often had lessons with his elder sister.当他三岁时，他经常跟着他姐姐上课”可知答案为A。
47.B 由第二段的第一句“但是，有些人认为一个小男孩写不出如此优美的音乐”可知答案为B。
48.B rich“富裕的”;poor“贫穷的”;happy“快乐的”;relaxed放松的。由第三段中的“he couldn’t make much money他挣不到许多钱”以及“Often he had to borrow money from his friends他经常不得不向他朋友借钱”可知此处应填poor。
49.C 由第三段的第一句“Mozart died when he was still a young man.”可知答案为C。
50.A 由第三段的最后一句“但是他的音乐不仅让他开心，而且两百多年以来，他的音乐让别人也感到快乐”可知答案为A。
Ⅴ.51.light 52.beating 53.against 54.asleep 55.meaning
Ⅵ.56.was killed 57.seeing 58.learning 59.truth 60.was cooking

课文原文：
翻译：
风暴把人们的距离拉近了
在阿拉巴马，Ben可以在他家里听见屋外的强风。乌云使得天空变得很黑。外面没有亮光，看起来好像午夜一样。电视的新闻报道说在这个区域中将会有一场暴风雨。
社区里的每个人都很忙。Ben的爸爸正在窗户上放着一片片木头时，他的妈妈也正在确认闪光灯和收音机可以工作运行。她也放了些蜡烛和火柴在桌子上。
当雨水开始猛烈地敲击窗户的时候，本正在帮助他的妈妈做饭。在晚饭后，他们试着玩牌游戏，但是在外面有暴风雨的时候很难去玩得很开心。
Ben一开始睡不着。当凌晨3点左右的时候，风开始渐渐小下去，他最终睡着了。当他醒来时，太阳正在升起。他和家人走了出去，发现社区周围都处于一团杂乱之中。到处都有倒掉的树木、毁坏的窗户和垃圾。他们加入邻居们去帮忙把社区打扫干净。
尽管暴风雨破坏了很多东西，但是它使家人和邻居们内心的距离更近了。
注意点：
Ben’s dad was putting pieces of wood over the windows while his mom was making sure the flashlights and radio were working.
Ben的爸爸正在窗户上放着一片片木头时，他的妈妈也正在确认闪光灯和收音机可以工作运行。“while”与“when”不完全相同，when既指时间点，也可指一段时间，while只指一段时间，因此when引导的时间状语从句中的动词可以是终止性动词，也可以是延续性动词，而while从句中的动词必须是延续性动词。
Although the storm broke many things apart, it brought families and neighbors closer together.
尽管暴风雨破坏了很多东西，但是它使家人和邻居们内心的距离更近了。
此句虽然中文翻译关联词为“尽管...但是”，但“although”后不加“but”。

The Storm Brought People Closer Together
在阿拉巴马州，本能够听到家外面强劲的风声。云彩黑压压的，天空很暗。外面没有光线，就像午夜。电视新闻报道，该区域有强风暴。
邻家的每个人都很忙碌。本的父亲正把成段的木头架到窗户上，他的母亲在确保手电筒和收音机都能用。她还把一些蜡烛和火柴摆到桌子上。
大雨重重地敲打在窗户上的时候，本正在帮他妈妈做晚饭。晚饭后，他们想玩牌，但是在外面正发生着如此严肃的风暴的情况下，想要玩得开心是件很难的事。
本一开始无法入眠；到了凌晨3点钟左右，风渐渐停下来的时候，他才终于进入了梦乡。醒来的时候，太阳正在升起来。他和家人出了屋子，发现邻家一团乱：到处都是断枝残木、破碎的窗户，还有废弃垃圾。他们加入邻居的清理阵营中，帮助他们一起打扫。
虽然这场风暴破坏了很多东西，但它也使得家人、邻里间关系更加紧密了。

Do You Remember What You Were Doing?
人们总会记得历史上重要事件被新闻报导出来的时候他们在做什么。比如，在美国，许多人都记得1968年4月4日他们在做什么。这是美国历史上的一项重大事件。就在这一天，马丁·路德·金遇刺。尽管一些人恐怕已经不记得是谁刺杀了他，但他们始终记得听到这个新闻的时候他们在做什么。
罗伯特·艾伦现今已经50多岁了，他当时是一个小学生。“我正和父母一起待在家里，”罗伯特还记得，“从广播里听到这个新闻的时候，我们正在厨房吃着晚饭。新闻播报员说’金博士10分钟前死了。’我父母当时完全震惊了！从那之后他们都不说话了，我们就这样默默地吃完了这一餐。”
再近些时候，绝大多数美国人都记得纽约世贸大楼被恐怖分子袭击时他们在做什么。甚至这个日期——2001年9月11日——对美国人来讲都意义非常。
这是凯特·史密斯永远都不会忘记的一天。她还记得当时在双子大楼附近的咖啡馆工作，“我的朋友大喊，说有架飞机撞到了世贸中心大厦！一开始我还不信，后来向窗外一看才意识到这是竟真的。我害怕极了以至于在那之后都难以思考了。”

⑦ 八年级人教版英语上册第五单元第二部分短文翻译
当人们谈到“文化”时，我们（首先）想到的是艺术与历史。但是美国文化的一个非常著名的标志是卡通片。我们 都了解和喜欢那只长着大大的、圆圆的耳朵的黑老鼠——米老鼠。80 多年前，他首次在卡通片《威利号汽船》中出现。 当这部卡通片于 1928 年 11 月 18 日在纽约发行时，它成了第一部有声音、有音乐的卡通片。米奇身后的那名男子叫沃 尔特•迪斯尼。他成功了而且非常富有。在 20 世纪 30 年代，他用米奇拍了 87 部卡通片。
一些人可能问这个卡通动 物是怎样如此受欢迎的。其中一个主要的原因是米奇像一个普通人，但他面对危险时总是全力以赴。在他早期的影片 中，米奇是不幸的，他经常遇到许多问题，比如失去房子和女朋友明妮。然而，他总乐于竭尽全力。人们去影院看这 个“小男人”赢。他们中多数人都想成为想米奇那样的人。
在 1978 年 11 月 18 日，米奇成了第一位入选好莱坞星光 大道明星的卡通人物。今天的卡通片通常不像小米老鼠那样简单，但是每个人还是知道和喜爱他。谁长着一双比米奇 的耳朵更有名的耳朵呢？

如果我成为一个运动员，我将会快乐吗？（P38
3a)
对于一些年轻人来说，成为一个职业运动员好像是一个理想的工作。如果你成为了一个职业运动员你将能谋生并且能做许多你喜欢做的事。如果你变的出名，全世界的人们将知道你。许多职业运动员将赚的钱捐给学校和慈善机构并且能做许多工作去帮助别人。这是一个许多人没有的大好机会。
然而，职业运动员也有一些麻烦。如果你变的出名，人们将一直关注你而且到处追随你。这会给生活带来麻烦。
如果你靠体育运动来谋生，你的工作有时候会非常危险。许多职业运动员受伤。如果你变的富有，你将难以知道谁是你真正的朋友。事实上，许多出名的人抱怨他们不快乐。他们说他们在出名以前更快乐！
