Every day trucks come into a city to collect it. Most rubbish is made up of things we can't eat or use. If we kept these things we would soon have a mountain of rubbish.In some cities the rubbish is collected and taken outside of city to a dump（垃圾堆）.Often the city dump is placed where the ground is low or there is a big hole. The kitchen rubbish is broken into small pieces and sent into the sewage （排污） system. The sewage system takes away the used water from toilets（厕所）, bathtubs and other places.To keep mice（老鼠） and flies away, some earth is used to cover the newly dumped rubbish. Later, grass may be planted on the rubbish-filled land. Finally, a house or a school may be built there, and then you'd never know that this had once been an old rubbish dump.In other cities the rubbish is burnt in special places. The fire burns everything but the metal （金属）. The mental can be reused and recycled. The food parts of rubbish are put in specialpiles（堆）where they slowly change into something called humans, which looks like black earth. It is rich with the kinds of things that feed plants and help them grow.（1）You can mostly probably read the passage in _____________.A. a science bookB. a TV guideC. a history bookD. a telephone book（2）According to the passage, the right order is _____________.① A house or a school may be built there.② The rubbish is collected and taken to a dump.③ Grass is planted on the rubbished-filled earth.④ The rubbish dump is covered with some earth.A. ②④①③B. ③①④②C. ①④③②D.②④③①（3）How should we take care of a used metal box according to the passage?A.

上海华东师范大学松江实验中学八年级英语下册期末阅读理解汇编一、八年级英语下册阅读理解专项训练1．阅读理解As space science develops, man has learned more and more about space. Space is not only amazing but also dangerous. While working in space, spacemen are facing danger as well as success.Scientists have found out that the radiation（辐射）is the greatest danger to spacemen in space. When spacemen are working in space, they are in danger of the radiation from the sun and other stars, which is bad for their health. The harm of the radiation won't be found until their children even grandchildren are born. Some special medicine may work a little, but no really effective medicine has been found so far. Space rubbish is also thought to be a great danger to spacemen. It's reported that there were 9,000 man-made things flying in space. About 30% of these are satellites, 10% are spaceships, and the rest are space rubbish. An explosion（爆炸） in space in 1999 made a cloud of 300,000fragments, each at least 4mm in size. A small piece of these even knocked a spaceship window and caused some damage（损坏）.Scientists are watching and reporting any possible danger all the time. They are working to deal with space rubbish. Although space is really dangerous, it interests many people on the earth. In the near future, it may become possible for people to spend a few days in a space hotel.

Because of this, it can be difficult for scientists to learn about these animals.In order to study black bears, researchers from New Jersey, the US, catch bears and use drugs to help them go to sleep. Researchers then work out the size and the weight of the bears, take blood, to test for diseases, remove a tooth and take it to the lab to find out its age. From these studies, researchers want to find out how many bears live in New Jersey, how long they live, and how many babies they produce.But in Minnesota, the US, researchers study bears that are completely awake. The bears know the researchers' voices and they are not afraid of the research team. With the help of a few grapes to keep the bears busy, researchers can touch them to check their hearts, look at their teeth, and do other jobs. Researchers can also walk or sit with bears for hours and make videos to learn about their everyday lives."In both places, the main purpose is the same—to make sure there is a healthy population of black bears.

We can study together till your exams."Next Monday, as the two friends entered the school together, Gina called out, "Sara, you know our club rules. You can't be friends with those who do not belong to our club.""Gina, I have a new rule about friendship."

Proverbs are popular around the world.Many listeners have sent us their favorite proverbs. They give advice about how to live. We begin with two popular proverbs about staying healthy by eating good food. One is" An apple a day keeps the doctor away." The other is" You are what you eat."Several proverbs about birds also give advice. You may have heard this one: The early bird catches the worm. This means a person who gets up early, or acts quickly, has the best chance of success. Another famous proverb is" a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush". This means you should not risk losing something you have by searching something that is not guaranteed（有保证的）.Another proverb warns "do not put all your eggs in one basket". This means you should not put all of your resources（资源） together in one place because you could risk losing everything at one time.Here is more advice: If at first you don't succeed, try, try again. Also," Never put off until tomorrow what you can do today."Yet another proverb advises us not to be concerned about something bad that you cannot change. It says," There is no use crying over spilled milk."Do you agree with the proverb" Children should be seen and not heard"? Maybe you have told your children that" hard work never hurt anyone". But other people say that" all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy". They believe it is not wise to spend all your time working but never having fun.Finally, here is one of our favorite pro-verbs: People who live in glass houses should not throw stones.

"What's the matter, my dear?" asked her mother, drawing her to her side and smiling."All our class must hand in compositions tomorrow. We must write 12 lines at least. But I can never write one. I'll have to go to school without a composition, for I won't copy one from a book, or ask you or papa to write one for me.""That's right," said her mother. "You'll be happier with a poor composition, if it's your own, than with a fine one written by somebody else. But cheer up. Run into the garden and play. I'll call you in half an hour. Don't think about your composition now. Just have a good time."It seemed just a few minutes to Susie before she heard her mother calling her. She went into the house immediately — her hands full of sweet flowers, and her face red with exercise.Then her mother asked her to sit by the window with a nice piece of paper and a pencil, and write something about what she could see. "Never mind your composition; do this to please me, and we'll talk about that later."Although Susie thought her mother's request was strange, she knew she always had a good reason for everything she did. So she did as her mother requested.As she looked out, she first saw the western sky and some bright, sunset clouds. "Oh, mother,what a sunset!""Don't talk. Just write."The pencil began moving rapidly across the paper. She wrote about the sunset clouds, the look of the distant hills, the streets, the river, the garden with its flowers, and the birds flying past the window. She forgot all about the terrible composition!Just as she had reached the bottom of the page, her mother came in and said with a smile, "Well, Susie, how does that composition come on?""Composition! You told me not to think about it, and I've never thought of it once. I've had such a nice time writing about what I could see from the window."Mrs. Smith took the paper and read what Susie had written. She said, "There, Susie, that's a very nice composition, really.""A composition! Is that a composition?" Susie asked in surprise."Yes, my dear, and a very good one, too, if we find a title for it," replied her mother. Then she added, "I'm sure it will please your teacher, as it does me.

He knows what he wants, and his aim is to find it and buy it. Most men simply walk into a shop and ask someone for what they want. If the shop has it, and the price is good, they often finish shopping in less than five minutes, to everyone's satisfaction.For a man, some problems may begin when the shop does not have what he wants. At that time, the salesman tries to sell the man something else. He offers something that is almost the same as the article the man wants. Good salespeople say, "I know this jacket is not what you really want, sir, but would you like to try it for size. It happens to be the color you like." Most men don't care about this and may answer, "This may be the right color and the right size, but I won't waste my time trying it on."For a woman, it is different. Most of the time, she goes shopping not because she needs something. She hasn't decided what she wants before she goes shopping. She just goes to "have a look around". At first, she thinks about finding something that everyone will say "It looks good on you." Most women are always looking for bargains（特价商品）. A woman may easily spend an hour looking at dresses before she wants to try on. It is a tiresome（令人厌烦的） process. Most clothes stores provide chairs for the waiting husbands.（1）According to the underlined sentence in the first paragraph, we know that men decide what they want .A. before they go shoppingB. after they go into shopsC. right awayD. after thinking about it for a while（2）What does "… but I won't waste my time trying it on" mean in the second paragraph?A. The jacket is not the right color.B. The man has no time.C. The jacket is not what the man wants.D. The man doesn't want to buy anything at all.（3）The underlined word "article" in the second paragraph is .A. a piece of writingB. a part of an agreementC. a thingD. a jacket（4）Which of the following is NOT true according to the text?A. Men buy clothes faster than women.B. Most women always look for bargains.C. Most women like to have a look around.D. Most clothes stores provide chairs for the children.10．阅读理解As space science develops, man has learned more and more about space. Space is not only amazing but also dangerous. While working in space, spacemen are facing danger as well as success.Scientists have found out that the radiation（辐射）is the greatest danger to spacemen in space. When spacemen are working in space, they are in danger of the radiation from the sun and other stars, which is bad for their health. The harm of the radiation won't be found until their children even grandchildren are born. Some special medicine may work a little, but no really effective medicine has been found so far. Space rubbish is also thought to be a great danger to spacemen. It's reported that there were 9,000 man-made things flying in space. About 30% of these are satellites, 10% are spaceships, and the rest are space rubbish. An explosion（爆炸） in space in 1999 made a cloud of 300,000fragments, each at least 4mm in size. A small piece of these even knocked a spaceship window and caused some damage（损坏）.Scientists are watching and reporting any possible danger all the time. They are working to deal with space rubbish. Although space is really dangerous, it interests many people on the earth. In the near future, it may become possible for people to spend a few days in a space hotel. People may even choose to leave the earth and live in space in a few years. So scientists are doing everything they can to help improve the space environment.（1）How many kinds of dangers in space does the passage mention?A. One.B. Two.C. Three.D.

I put my head out of a window and a bucket （桶） of water fell on me.

I put my hands on the deck and someone walked on them.Third Frenchman： I once went early in the morning to the doctor's and his nurse came to the door and said, "He's not up yet. Come back in half an hour." When I went a second time for him, She said, "He's not down yet." I had to go away again. Later I thought the doctor should be in the house in the evening, so I went there once more. "Oh, how sorry I am! He's not in! I'd better tell him to wait for you if you could come tomorrow," said the nurse. "Well! He's not up, he is not down, and he is not in. Please tell me where he stays!"

We can see the number of animal species decreases faster and faster and this trend will continue. From 1980 to 2010, at least I million animal species disappeared. Worse still, more and more wild animals are in great danger. It is not a piece of terrible news; it is a fact, a harsh reality. Unfortunately, we may not see these animals in the near future.Why is the number of animal species declining year by year? Apparently animals have become victims of fashion industry. Animal skin has been used to make fashionable clothes and theseclothes are sold at a high price. So some greedy people begin to kill animals in a large quantity. This irresponsible behaviour not only breaks the balance of nature but also endangers the living environment of human beings.As far as I am concerned, something must be done to stop this illegal action. We believe "no buying, no killing". First, we must make concerning laws to protect these animals in danger. Second, we must take some measures to protect animals effectively. Animals are our friends and part of our environment. Third, we should raise people's awareness to protect animals and our environment. In this way, we can build a harmonious society and ensure a sustainable development.（1）From the first paragraph, we Can learn thatA. the number of animal species decreases faster and fasterB. the number of animal species increases faster and fasterC. the number of animal species increases more and moreD. the number of animals increases more and more.（2）When did at least 1 million animal species disappear?A. From 1908 to 2010.B. From 1980 to 2011.C. From 1980 to 2010.D. From 1981 to 2010.（3）Where did animal skin go?A. The museums.B. Home.C. The fashion clothes factories.D. The libraries.（4）Which of the following is NOT true according to Paragraph 3?A. We must make laws to protect these animals in danger.B. We must take some measures to protect animals effectively.C. We should raise people's awareness to protect animals and our environment.D. We should breed wild animals.13．阅读理解Like humans, dogs donate blood too, and not every dog can donate blood. The dogs are screened（检查）for health first. Dogs must have the correct blood type, weigh at least 55 pounds and be younger than 8 years old. They may donate three or four pints（品脱） a year, which can help animals that are suffering from illnesses like cancer or an accident like being hit by a car. One pint can save up to three dogs.Owners volunteer their pets for the short procedure （程序）, which requires no sedative, a kind of medicine given to calm him or her down. It's the dog that finally chooses to lie still and give. If the dogs want to get up and leave, they can.Sandy Lucas brought her 7-year-old black German shepherd, Rains, to the bloodmobile（流动血站） when it was parked at her small village. Sandy said she wouldn't have troubled herself with highway traffic and city parking problems to take the dog to Penn Vet's animal hospital in downtown Philadelphia, which is twice as far as her home. But the bloodmobile made it easy to find out if Rains could donate. "I was very, very excited that she had the right blood that was needed to help another dog out," said Sandy. "We'll surely do it again."。

After reading the book Unpolished Gem（《未经雕琢的宝石》）by Australian writer Alice Pung, I found I am not alone. Pung had the same story as me.The story is set in Melbourne. Pung's parents are from Cambodia.

However, as she argues with her white boyfriend, she knows that traditional Asian values are part of her life. In the end, she happily accepts her own cultural background （背景）.Since Pung lived in her home country for 18 years, it wasn't easy for her to understand Australian culture.

Judy, asix-year-old girl, said “That made me very excited!” about one of her birthday presents.

The answer is between 8 and 10 hours. If you don't get enough sleep at night, you'll have less energy the next day.But the researchers say many children have missed out on 4,500 hours of sleep by the time they are seven years old. They say that children miss sleep because they have TVs and computers in their rooms, and busy parents don't read to their younger children at night any more. The traditional “bedtime story” helps childr en to relax and fall asleep peacefully. Children with TVs and computers in their bedrooms were more likely to sleep badly, and to get less than eight hours' sleep. Even losing one hour's sleep a night can mean that children do less well at school.German scientists think that your brain keeps working while you're asleep. To show that they were right, they gave two groups of people a problem to work out. One group went to sleep, and the other group stayed awake. The result? The people who slept worked out the answer morequickly, suggesting their brains had been trying to find the answer while the people were asleep. So, make sure you get enough sleep tonight, and you'll be at your best tomorrow!（1）What happens to children at school if they don't get enough sleep?A. They walk more slowly.B. They can relax.C. They watch more TV.D. They do less well at school.（2）The main idea of the second paragraph is .A. how much sleep we needB. children don't get enough sleepC. our brains never really go to sleepD. TVs and computers are the problem（3）How does a bedtime story help children get a good sleep?A. It helps children to relax and fall asleep peacefully.B. Children lose more sleep.C. Children have more energy.D. Children get to sleep later.（4）Why is it better to sleep in a room without a TV or computer?A. You can read stories before you go to sleep.B. You sleep better and get more sleep.C. You have less energy.D. Your brain works better.（5）What did the German scientists' experiment show?A. Sleep helps children learn to read.B. Losing sleep means children don't learn well.C. Your brain works while you are asleep.D. Parents should read bedtime stories.4．阅读理解When I was in primary school, I got into a big argument（争吵）with a boy in my class. I forgot what the argument was about, but I will never forget the lesson I learned that day.I thought that I was right and he was wrong – and he thought that I was wrong and he was right. The teacher decided to teach us a very important lesson.She brought us to the front of the class and asked him to stand on one side of her desk and me on the other. In the middle of her desk was a large, round ball. I could clearly see that it was black. She asked the boy what color the ball was. "White," he answered.I couldn't believe he said the ball was white, when it was obviously（明显地）black! Another argument started between us, this time about the color of the ball.The teacher told us to change places and then asked me what color the ball was. I answered:"White."It was a ball with two differently colored sides, and from his side it was white. Only from my side it was black.Sometimes we need to look at problems from the other person's view in order to（为了）truly understand his or her perspective（观点）.（1）What happened to the writer in the beginning?A.

There are many relatives（亲属） in the whale family and they always live together with whales.Few people know dolphins（海豚） are part of the whale family. Dolphins are not fish. They are mammals（哺乳动物）. They breathe air, and they have babies and feed them with milk. Dolphins are famous for their wonderful shows. They can jump high out of the water and show turns in the air. These jumps give the dolphins time to breathe.Porpoises（鼠海豚）are also in the whale family and are quite like dolphins. But they are different in the size and shape of the mouth. The dolphin's mouth is long and thin, but the porpoise's is short and thick. Dolphins are also more talkative than porpoises. Dolphins make sounds to talk with each other under water. But porpoises do not do this. Both of them are smart and friendly to humans.Not all the members of the whale family are friendly. Big whales are much easier to be angry than smaller dolphins or porpoises. An angry whale can be dangerous. Perhaps this helped to create the story of Moby Dick that sank （使下沉） a ship and made all the people on it die in the sea.（1）According to the passage, the porpoise .A. is a kind of mouseB. is friendly to humansC. is much bigger than the dolphinD. has a longer nose than the dolphin（2）What can we learn from the passage?A. Dolphins and porpoises have great differences in their habits.B. Whale families often like swimming and living in groups.C. Porpoises make sounds to communicate with one another under water.D.

Food that Whales EatB. Whales' Eating HabitsC. Members of the Whale FamilyD. Differences Between Dolphins and Porpoises 6．阅读下列短文, 根据要求完成下列各题。
