AIn the past, working people in Britain only had holidays on “holy” (religious) days: Sundays, Christmas and Easter. Now most people have about four weeks of holiday time every year plus public (公共的) holidays (also called “bank holidays”).When?Most British workers take a two-week holiday in July or August. School children are on holiday from the end of July to the start of September. Taking a second holiday break in winter or spring is also becoming more popular in the UK.Where?The most popular holiday destinations for Brits include Spain, France, Greece and the US. Lots of people buy a package holiday that includes flights and a hotel or an apartment. Cheap overseas flights mean that many British people are able to spend two weeks a year vacationing abroad. Flights and package holidays are much cheaper during school terms and the British government is worried that some young people are skipping school to go on holiday. Parents who take their child on vacation during term time must now pay a fine.British people also like to go on holiday in the UK. They might go to England, Northern Ireland, Scotland or Wales, In Cornwall (康沃尔), for example, there is an environmental project called the Eden Project. You can see plants from all over the world there.Independent (独立的) holidaysSome teenagers want to spend their holidays doing something without their family. A language exchange is one way to become more ind ependent and improve one’s language skills. A British teenager might spend a week or two in a foreign country, staying with a family who has a son ordaughter of the same age and practicing the local language. Later, the foreign teenager might visit the UK to practice their English with a British family.()1.When did British people have holidays in the past?a. Christmas.b. Saturdays.c. Easter.d.

I turned around and found a little lady with a warm smile. I said heartily:” Of course﹗”“Why are you in college at such an age?” I asked.She joked, “I’m here to meet a rich husband, get married, have children, and then travel around.”“No seriously,” I asked.“I always dreamed of having a college education and now I’ getting one!” she told me.Over the year, Rose became an icon(偶像) and she easily made friends. She loved to dress up and she enjoyed the attention of the others. At the end of the term we invited Rose to ou r football party. I’llnever forget what she said.“We do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because we stop playing. Here are the secrets to stay young. You have to laugh and find humor every day. You’ve got to have a dream. When you lose your dreams, you die! There's a huge difference between growing old and growing up. Anybody can grow older. That doesn't take any talent or ability. But growing up requires finding the opportunity in change. Have no regrets.”One week after graduation that year, Rose died peacefully in her sleep.

With drawings and simple words, the step-by-step guide explains how to send messages, take pictures and make video calls. Zhang made the guide for his parents. “My parents are getting old. They need an easy way to learn how to use new techn ology.” He said.Zhang’s experience is common nowadays. Worldwide, 40 percent of parents learn about new technologies, including computers, mobile Internet and social media, from their children, according to a study from the International Communication Association in 2014.Parents used to teach their kids about almost everything. Now for the first time, the teachers become the students, and the students turn into the teachers.The change of roles comes from the rapid development of society and technology, says Zhou Xiaohong, a sociology professor from Nanjing University. Zhou said the Internet and other forms of media give children ways to get information besides from asking older generations(长辈). Therefore, in the age of information, it’s possible that chil dren know more than their parents do.According to the China Internet Network Information Center(CINIC), 56.7 percent of Internet users and 67.2 percent of social media users in China are under the age of 30. The younger generation usually acts as alink between their family and the new environment. But when they teach their parents new technologies, parents can connect to the new world by themselves, noted Zhou.In Zhang Ming’s eyes, teaching his parents about WeChat brings him closer to his parents. “People can communicate more by using new technology. Why should we keep our parents out?” said Zhang.( )11.According to the passage, Zhang’s parents can’t_______with the “WeChat guide”.A．make video calls B．send messagesC．grab the red envelopes D．take pictures( )12.Why does children know more than their parents do nowadays?A．Because parents teach the children about almost everything.B．Because children can ask more older generations for help.C．Because parents are getting old.D．Because children can get more information by using new technoloies.( )13.What does the underlined word “link” in paragraph 5 mean?A．teacher B．connection C．treasure D．conversation( )14.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A．Zhang Mi ng’s “We Chat guide” is made up of drawings and simple words.B．40% of parents lean about new technologies from their children all over the world on 2014.C．56.7% of social media users in China are under 30 according to the CINIC．D．Zhang Ming thinks that we should encourage our parents to use more new technolohies. ( )15.What’s the best title of the passage?A．Ways of using new technology B．Kids can also teach parentsC．How parents connect to the world D．Ways to get informationDWant to know what we students can do to make our city a better place to live in?

Usually it takes a long time, perhaps half a day, for passengers to stay in the plan. So airlines（航空公司）offer passengers food. But it is common that they feel bad about food taste. Do you agree?To solve this problem, airlines try hard to improve their food. They would like to do so because they don’t want to lose customers.However, according to scientific research, part of the reason why plane food tastes bad is that at high altitude（海拔）we can not taste things as well as we do on the ground. Also scientists have found that our noses become very dry even before a plane takes off. As the plane moves up, the change in air pressure（气压）reduces one third of the sensibility（感觉）of our taste buds. So ourtaste buds become senseless. The sad face, however, is that our noses don’t know it.All of these help explain why food on the plane tastes so bad. They also help explain why airlines choose to offer passengers salty and spicy（辛辣的）food. Without doing so, the food would be tasteless.Now there are many researches on this. According to one of them, some volunteers are asked to lie with their feet higher than their heads for weeks. And scientists write down their feelings about food taste.Though sci entists try their best, it is not as easy as they thought. Because they can’t deal with the special environment successfully, such as the change in air pressure, making food taste good is still hard for them.( )26.In Paragraph 2, “this problem” means ______.A．passengers stay long in the plane B．food on the plane tastes badC．passengers have no food to eat D．food on the plane is expensive( )27.What do airlines do to solve this problem?A．Get more customers. B．Offer more food.C．Improve their food. D．Reduce the ticket price.( )28.As the plane moves up, the change in air pressure reduces of the sensibility of our taste buds.A．half B．one third C．one fourth D．one fifth( )29.Why do scientists feel it hard to made food on the plane taste good?A．The volunteers don’t know about food taste.B．The volunteers don’t understand them.C．They can’t find enough volunteers.D．They can’t deal with the special environment successfully.( )30.What is the best title of the passage?A．Taste of Airplane Food B．Airplane TravelC．Scientific Research on Noses D．The Change in Air PressureGEvery country has its own way of cooking.

And London was the most popular city among travellers from China. An average of 144,000 Chinese visitors visited London between 2004 and 2018, compared to 35,000 in Edinburgh every year. Other hot cities were Manchester, Cambridge, and Oxford.More than 250,000 holidaymakers from China spent more than 500,000,000 pounds in the United Kingdom last year. That number is expected to rise. Visit Britain, the UK's tourism body, said Chinese tourists visited Britain for its ancient buildings and modern culture. Buckingham Palace tops the list of the most popular places of interest in the UK with 35 percent of those surveyed saying it was on their to-do-list. The next two are Chatsworth House and Edinburgh Castle. Places that provide a bird's eye view of London are also popular. The Shard and London Eye are on many people's visiting lists.

The Chinese visits abroad more than doubled in five years, from about 41 million overnight stays in 2011 to 85 million in 2016. By 2020, there is thought to be 110 million trips overseas."But few are interested in the UK's traditional food. They think it's not good to eat.

And the seat number was on the top of each chair. Before the movie started, people talked a lot. But when it started, they were all quiet. People couldn't come into the room after the movie was on for 15 minutes. Of course this could be a little annoying（使⼈⽓恼的）for some of those late birds, but no one liked to be disturbed（被打扰）by late arrivers.

人教版八年级英语上册阅读理解12篇(一)Many animals migrate-they move over long ways, often at the same time and to the same place each year. They move to places where the weather is warmer, where there is more food and water, or where their young will be safer. Here are three amazing examples of migration: One of the largest animal migrations happens on the Serengeti plains(塞伦盖蒂平原) in Africa. More than one million wildebeest(角马) migrate in a big group. As the seasons change, they follow the rain, looking for better grass to eat and water to drink. They stay in one place while the grass and water are good, and then they move on. They return to the same places each year. Thousands of zebras and other animals travel with the wildebeest.Out of all migrating animals, Arctic terns(北极燕鸥) travel the longest way. These seabirds lay their eggs and raise their young in summer in the north of Europe, Asia and North America. Each year around August, they fly south over the oceans. They spend about five months near Antarctica, while it is warmer there. Then after the southern summer ends, they fly north again. Arctic terns travel more than 70.000 kilometers in a year.Salmon(蛙鱼) live most of their lives in the ocean. But when it’s time for them to lay their eggs, they return to the rivers where they were born. They move up rivers and streams to find the right place. Scientists think that the fish remember the special smell of their river, and this is how they find their way. Salmon can swim strongly up hills, and will jump high to get over waterfalls. ( )1．The word “migrate” means ________ in the first paragraph.A．移民B．迁徙B．C．搬家D．移动( )2．Animals migrate because ________.A．they need warmer weather B．they need foodC．they need good places to raise their young D．all of the above( )3．Arctic terns can travel ________ kilometers each year.A．5,000B．30,000C．over 70,000D．1 million( )4．Scientists think ________ helps salmon find their way as they migrate.A．the smell of the river B．the sound of the riverC．the warmth of the river D．the amount of water in the river答案详解本文介绍了角马、北极燕鸥和蛙鱼三个令人吃惊的迁徙例子。

Many things can make you angry. When your teacher gives you too much homework, when a friend borrow your favorite thing and then breaks it, when your team loses an important game, you may get really angry.Usually, your body will tell you when you are angry. For example, you breathe (呼吸) faster, your face turns red, and you may want to break something or hit (打) someone, but sometimes you hide your anger. For example, you are really angry, but you may keep it to yourself. The worst thing is to do nothing but keep quiet. The problem is that if you do this, you may get a headache or your stomach may get hurt.In fact, it’s normal for you to get angry sometimes. But anger must be let out in the right way. When you get angry, you can talk about it with other people and share your problems with them, such as your parents, a teacher, etc.If you talk about anger, those bad feelings can start to go away. So you are halfway to solving a problem just by talking to someone about it. Here are some other things you can do when you start to feel angry: talk to a good friend; count from 1 to 100; give someone a hug (拥抱); think about good things, etc.Remember that how you act when you are angry can make everything better or worse. It is not a good way to run away from your anger. You should always try to solve it.11．You may not get angry when ________.A．a friend breaks your favorite thing B．your parents don't let you watch TV C．your favorite basketball team wins the game D．There is too much homework on the weekend12．________ shows that you are angry.A．Speaking slowly B．Getting a cold C．Having a red face D．Trying to protect someone13．What does the word “hide” in Paragraph 2 mean in Chinese?A．隐藏B．爆发C．展示D．诉说14．According to the passage, you can do everything when you get angry EXCEPT________. A．talking to others B．counting numbers C．thinking about good thingsD．saying bad things to people around you15．What is the main purpose of the passage?A．To teach people how to share feelings.B．To show why people get angry.C．To help people understand bad feelings.D．To ask people to solve their anger actively.BWe’re often in difficult times or meet difficult problems. They are hard to solve and they are common in our life. When we’re in difficult times, just stopping isn’t enough. We need to ask for help.When I’m in difficult times, I never turn to someone for help. In fact, I am lucky enough to have a helpful group. They always support me when I meet some problems.First, I have a good relationship with my parents. They always give me good advice. So when I’m in difficult times, my parents are usually the first ones I turn to. As teenagers, many of us don’t think our parents know us. However, they have gone through more situations（情况）as hard as or maybe even harder than those we are having now. So why not listen to them and learn from their experiences?There are quite a few different situations. But we don’t want to ask our parents for advice. For those, we can turn to our friends.

But how do you deal with your worries? Whether your worries are big or small, you can take these three steps to deal with your worries:1. Try to find out what you’re worried aboutSometimes, you will know what you’re worried about. Other times, you might not. Try to find it out first; if you can’t, you can ask for help.2. Think of ways to make it betterThere is always something you can do to help you feel less worried. Sitting there worrying is no fun and it won’t solve your problem.Grades at school are often top worries for kids. If you’re worried about grades, ask yourself these questions:★ Why are grades important? What do grades mean to me?★ How do I get ready for class? Do I go over my notes even when there isn’t a test?★ Do I have a good place to do my homework?★ Have I tried different ways of studying?If your worry is about a fight you had with a friend, you might write down all the things you could do —write a note to him or her, invite him or her to a basketball game, say sorry to him or her, etc. Once you have a list of things you could do, you can choose the one that gets your friend back.3. Ask for helpWhen you’re worried, it can help to find someone to talk to. You can ask your parents, friends or teachers for help.21．How many steps of dealing with your worries are mentioned(涉及) in the passage?________________________________________22．What will you do if you don’t know what you’re worried about?________________________________________23．What will you do if you have a fight with your friend?________________________________________24．What are often a top worry for kids?________________________________________25．Who can you ask for help when you’re worried?________________________________________四、选词填空选词填空从方框中选择合适的单词并用适当形式填入下列句子中。

The one time I wasn’t sure of that was on September 11.I usually wake up a 6:30 or 7:00 in the morning. That day, I happened to wake up earlier. Iturned on the TV and I saw that a plane had crashed (撞击) into the North Tower of the WorldTrade Center. My first reaction (反应) was that it was a terrible accident. Then I saw another planefly into the South Tower and I realized that I was witnessing (目击) an act of terrorism.My wife and I spent the day watching the terrible pictures over again. When I watched familymembers looking for their loved ones, the pain in their eyes was something I would never forget. Icouldn’t understand how something this terrible could have happened.It wasn’t until a few weeks after September 11 that I began to see that perhaps some good didcome from this tragedy (悲剧). People seem different now, more understanding, more tolerant(宽容的). Little things that seemed to be such a trouble before are no longer big things. Personally, Iam more tolerant than I was. I realize life is too short, and too precious(珍贵的), to let myself getworried over small things. I’ve learned also that you can’t take things for granted. Things changethey’re living and thein the blink of an eye. People go to work and don’t come back. One momentnext minute they’re not.

Chen showed that it was quite useful to know how to do CPR.According to medical experts, there is a "golden period(黄金期)"—the first 4 minutes of a heart problem. During the time, CPR makes the biggest difference. Unluckily, only less than I percent of Chinese adults have known the skill of CPR, while many even have never heard of it. On August 24 of 2020, the Ministry of ERCSC made a joint guideline (联合指示) to ask all public schools to give first-aid(急救) courses, including (包括)CPR training.CPR is not hard to learn. All that one needs to do is how to watch and decide if a person is unconscious (失去知觉的), where to press on the patient's chest, and how to blow air through the mouth and into the lungs(肺).A 2017 study showed that 65 percent of Americans had received CPR training. In Switzerland, all people are asked to be trained in first aid, including CPR: tn Germany, everyone must be trained before getting their driver's license, which means about 80 percent of the country has received first-aid training.

But they are less popular(不受欢迎) in the USA. In the USA, they eat take-away food, too, like fried(油炸的) chicken. But the most popular kind of take-away food is hamburger.

Jim was very proud of two things. One was Jim's gold watch from his grandfather. The other was Della's hair. It almost made itself into a dress for her.Della wanted to buy Jim a Christmas gift. The only thing she thought valuable(有价值的) was her hair. She sold it, without thinking twice, for 20 dollars. She was going from one shop to another to find a gift for Jim. She saw a gold watch chain (链条) It was so perfect for his watch! She paid for it unhesitatingly and hurried home with the chain and 87 cents.At seven before the dinner, Jim stepped in and he was not smiling. He looked strangely at Della and said slowly,” You cut off your hair?”"Yes. I sold it for the gift so don’t be sad." Della answered "Oh, my dear, I also bought a gift for you,”Jim took out a paper bag from his coat. "If you open that, you may know how I felt when I came in.”White fingers opened the bag And then a cry of joy. And then a change to tears. For there lay The Comb---the combs that Della had seen in a shop window and loved for a long time.Della took out the gift for Jim. However, Jim smiled and said, "Let's put our Christmas gifts away and keep them a while. They are too nice to use now. I will buy my watch back someday.

An interesting CoupleC.A special ChristmasWhen fishermen throw fishing nets(渔网) into the water, they catch not only different kinds of fishes, but also a lot of seabirds. Here is the reason: seabirds mainly live on fish. When there are fish in the nets, seabirds can smell fish from far away and fly to the nets to catch fish. As a result, they get caught in the nets and then die. These fishing nets kill at least 400,000 seabirds every year. Some seabirds are in great danger now.Scientists know that many seabirds don’t like to see other animals’ eyes. If they do, they will fly away. So they came up with an idea. They designed a floating buoy(浮标) with big eyes and made the eyes large enough so that all seabirds could see the eyes. Also, scientists made the eyes keep moving in the water, so birds coming from different places could see them easily and then flew away. Scientists tested the buoys in the water for 250 hours. The result showed that the eyes made 20%-30% of ducks leave, and some seabirds visited the water less even three weeks after scientists took away the buoys.The test showed success and hope, but scientists found that the eyes didn’t work for all kinds of seabirds. Some were not afraid of the eyes in the first place, and some came back again to fish finally. Scientists hope that they will build better eyes. There is a long way to go to save seabirds, but scientists will keep moving forward.（）1. The first paragraph mainly talks about _______.A. how fishermen fishB. how seabirds get fishC. why seabirds die in fishing nets（）2. Scientists made the eyes keep moving to let _______ see them.A. birds with poor eyesightB. birds from different placesC. fish under water（）3. Which of the following is TRUE?A. All ducks were afraid of the floating buoys with big eyes.B. Less than 400,000 seabirds died in these fishing nets.C. The floating buoys with big eyes worked for some seabirds.（）4. We can infer(推断) from the passage that scientists are _______ the eyes.A. sorry aboutB. hopeful aboutC. worried about（）5. What’s the best title for the passage?A. Are seabirds in danger?B. Why do we save seabirds?C. Can big eyes save seabirds?What does taking the train mean to you? Perhaps it’s just a way of getting to your destination(目的地). In fact, the train itself can be part of the fun.On March 28, 2021, China’s first panda-themed tourist train left Chengdu in Sichuan for Zunyi in Guizhou. It soon became the talk of China with its special design and fun facilities(设施). The train is full of giant panda pictures. Attendants(乘务员) carry panda toys to move around and passengers(乘客) can try panda-shaped food, as well as Sichuan snacks. Some people call it a “mobile star hotel” because it has a bar, karaoke room, dance hall, and mahjong(麻将) room. Passengers can take showers and use its 5G network as well.Besides fun facilities, train travel appeals to people for other reasons. In the fast-paced times we live in, train travel is a good way to slow down. It gives you time and space to read, sleep, chat with friends, or simply do nothing but watch the changing scenery(风景) outside.Sheng Yawei, 26, once took the longest railway in the world — the Trans-Siberian(穿越西伯利亚的) Railway. Running from Moscow to Vladivostok, it takes six days. Sheng said, “It was like a time travel experience. Since the journey covers eight time zones(时区), I saw my watch go back suddenly.” He added, “The rivers, forests, mountains, and deserted countryside along the way made me feel peaceful.” Train travel is also filled with surprises. You might meet new people. Sheng met a Russian college student and they became friends. “I also met a cute boy who gave me melon seeds(瓜子). Though we didn’t understand each other’s language, it made me feel nice. Taking the train is very interesting. You don’t know who you’ll meet or what you’ll see. It’s a window to see the world,” he said.（）1. On the panda-themed train, passengers can NOT _______.A. have Sichuan snacksB. have a dancing partyC. take photos with real giant pandas（）2. People call the panda-themed train a “mobile star hotel” because of _______.A. its fun facilitiesB. its special foodC. its fast speed(速度)（）3. The underlined phrase “appeals to” in Paragraph 3 probably means “_______” in Chinese.A. 挑战B. 吸引C. 排斥（）4. In Sheng Yawei’s opinion, _______ made his travel full of surprises.A. watching the deserted countryside along the wayB. making friends with foreignersC. understanding a different language（）5. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. The panda-themed tourist train.B. Travel experiences.C. Interesting train travels.（六）The next day was also cold and grey. Nobody talked much during breakfast. Mrs March was pale (苍白的) and red. The girls tried to hide their tears.Then Mr Brooke arrived with the carriage(四轮马车) and it was time for Mrs March to leave.She kissed her daughters one by one and said, “Keep busy, my dears, and never lose hope!"“Yes, Mother.""Meg. look after your sisters. If you need help, ask Mr Frence. Jo,be patient and cheerful, and write to me often. Beth and Amy, help with the housework and be obedient (服从的)”“Yes. Mother I Don't worry!"Mrs March got into the carriage and opened the window.“Goodbye, my dears!" she called as it drove away. The girls waved their hands cheerfully until the carriage turned the corner.Then, with sad faces and heavy hearts, they went back inside.“The house seems very empty now," said Meg.“Our motto(座右铭)is“Hope and keep busy'," said Jo brightly. She was trying to forget how sad she was feeling. “So I'm going to go and see Aunt March. What about you,Meg?"“I'm going to teach the Kings' children," replied Meg.“And Amy and I are going to help Hannah with the housework," said Beth.“I think anxiety (焦虑) is very interesting," Amy said seriously. Her remark made her sisters laugh, and they all started to feel a little better.（）1. When did the story happen?A. In the morning.B. In the afternoonC. In the evening.（）2. How many daughters did Mrs March have?A. Three.B. Four.C. Five.（）3. Who was going to help Hannah with the housework?A. Beth.B. Meg.C. Amy and Beth.（）4. What does the underlined word remark mean in Chinese?A.话语B.表情C.态度（）5. According to the story, we can know that_________.A. it was hot and sunny that dayB. the girls felt unhappy when their mother leftC. Mr Brooke worked for Mrs March and her family（七）Almost every Chinese person can recite(背诵)the two lines of the famous poem,"Every grain on the plate comes from hard work." But sadly, many of us don't actually get the real meaning of these lines: Don't waste food.A CCTV program reported that the food Chinese people throw away every year is enough to feed 200 million people for a year. Do we have too much food? Absolutely not.According to the UN World Food Program, there were 925 million hungry people around the world in 2011, especially in developing countries. Six million children die of hunger (饥饿)every year.Chinese people are well-known for being friendly and generous (大方的)。

She sent her Hello Kitty doll into the sky early this month. She wanted to find out how altitude（高度）changed air pressure（气压） and temperature, according to New York Daily News.Rojas put the doll and a small computer into a rocket model, and then sent it up with a weather balloon（气球）. The computer recorded the height, air pressure and temperature. Rojas also put in a video camera to record the trip."It took about two or three weeks to put it all together," said Rojas. "I think people will think it （the video） is really cool."The balloon got to 28.5km above the Earth. At that height, the doll could see the blue curves （曲线） of our planet. The air was very thin up there, and soon the balloon broke up （爆炸）. The doll fell from the sky and at last it ended up in a tree. It was 76km from the place where it had started its journey.（1）Rojas do her science project___________.A. early this morningB. early this monthC. last weekD. two or three weeks ago （2）Rojas used __________ to find out how high the doll was.A.

I dreamed of a getaway.Luckily, my best friend was also thinking of getting out of Los Angeles and invited me to go to Hawaii with her family. After two COVID-19 tests and a double-masked five-hour flight, our five-person group arrived on the Big Island in Hawaii.We packed into a car and drove to our rental (租的) house. It was late at night, so we didn’t really see the island until the next day. Our first day was bright and sunny, so we spent all day at the beach before getting shaved ice (刨冰).We found possibly the best shaved ice place on the island. Big Island Shaved Ice Company (BISIC) has homemade, natural shaved ice flavors (口味) such as passion fruit (百香果), lychee (荔枝), coconut and mango. Unsurprisingly, we visited the place every day.Other than the delicious dessert, Hawaii treated (招待) us to cloudy, sometimes rainy weather on the days we planned to go hiking to waterfalls, and sunny weather on the days we planned to head to the beaches (where I got very, very sunburned). My favorite activity, though, was when we went horseback riding. We saw bright green fields and breathtaking views of the island’s shoreline (海岸线). I rode a horse named Arya. Along the way, our guide told us interesting stories about the island.Although I was sad to leave, after a week of laughter and fun, I was more prepared to go back into quarantine (隔离).1．The author hadn’t left his house for o ver a year because of the________.A．study B．work C．pandemic D．war2．The author’s best friend invited him to go to ________.A．Los Angeles B．HawaiiC．Taiwan D．England3．How many COVID-19 tests did the author have before arriving in Hawaii?A．One.

They have drive-in movie theaters and drive-through restaurants. And they also drive for vacations. They often call it the “Great American Road Trip”: the whole family gets into a car or recreational vehicle (RV, 旅行房车), and goes on a summertime trip across the country.American cars are always big, but RVs are the biggest. These are houses on wheels. RVs have kitchens, bathrooms and bedrooms. All across the country you can find RV parks. They are places to park your RV and spend the night. And, if you can’t find a good park, you can always make your home in a grocery store parking lot.When your little brother kicks you in the face all night in your small bed under the table, a big RV can seem very small. And, when the dog barks (吠) and Mom plays her country music on the radio——your family is not at its best. What’s worse, RVs are always breaking down.But RV travel can be a great time with the family, too. You can see the country in the comfort of your own “home”. You can spend every night in a different scenic (景色的) place, or just stay where you are. You don’t have to pay for hotels or restaurants, only gas. But, best of all, you are free to go wherever you want whenever you want in your home-away-from-home.6．Americans love to ________.A．cook B．drive C．shop D．sleep7．RVs are________ cars in America.A．smaller than B．not as big asC．bigger than D．the same as8．RVs have kitchens, bathrooms and________.A．parks B．bedroomsC．living rooms D．classrooms9．What is one of the disadvantages of the RV?A．It is always breaking down.B．The space of RV is very big.C．There is no noise in RV.D．The radio is always breaking down.10．When you travel by your RV, you can________.A．only stay in the parkB．pay for hotels or restaurantsC．spend every night in a different scenic placeD．only go out on the weekend（2023秋·全国·八年级专题练习）Time for familyOne of my most memorable (难忘的) vacations took place on a farm.When I was a boy, my parents and I traveled from New York City to the countryside for a weeklong taste of rural life. We stayed in a guesthouse on a farm, joining in the daily routines (日常事务) and eating meals with the farmer and his family.We got up early to see the cows as they were milked. I even tried my hand at milking one, then joined the farmer as he released the cows into the field afterward. Later, while my parents busied themselves with farm chores, I helped feed the other animals, then played with the farmer’s kids.Decades later I still have vivid memories of that trip and of experiencing a lifestyle different from my own. It made me realize the value of a vacation, of seeing new things, meeting new people and sharing memorable experiences with family members.To this day I still consider that family trip when I plan my approach to taking time off with my wife and kids. Vacations are a time for resting and connecting. As a bank manager, I spend much of my workday encouraging mycustomers to save their money. One of the reasons I give is that we should all have enough for a family vacation every year. In our busy lives, family is what we should be saving our money, and time for.For my family, our vacations start when we begin planning the trips. We talk about destinations and our budget ahead of time. Among the things we discuss: Can we save money by renting a house instead of spending six nights in a hotel? Would it be better to buy groceries and cook for ourselves rather than eat out every night?Involving the kids in planning the vacation makes sure that they have a great vacation too. While I prefer to visit historical sites and museums, they love to fish and swim. So I build in some relaxation time so that the vacation works for everyone.Each year, setting aside vacation time to spend together is especially important to us. A relaxing environment opens the doors to all kinds of conversations—deep, silly, meaningful. There’s no pressure from the usual everyday tasks.This is the one week a year when I don’t car e whether my kids cleaned their room or did the dishes. What matters that week is that everyone is having a great time.11．The author’s family stayed in a________ on a farm for a weeklong taste of rural life.A．greenhouse B．hotelC．yard D．guesthouse12．What does the author do?A．He is a teacher. B．He is a bank manager.C．He is a farmer. D．He is a guide.13．The author thinks that________.A．we should spend much moneyB．we should donate moneyC．we should save money for family vacationsD．we should deposit all money in the bank14．What does the underlined word “budget” mean?A．交通工具B．预算C．美食D．时间15．From the passage, we can learn that________.A．setting aside vacation time to spend with family every year is importantB．making more money is importantC．saving more money for shopping is importantD．the author didn’t have great time when he was young（2023秋·全国·八年级专题练习）Holiday homeThe British people have just discovered a new country. It’s called the UK! More and more people are choosing to take their holidays in their own country rather than travel abroad.One of the most traditional British holidays is the “seaside holiday”. Stereotypically (典型地), families get on a train or into a car and travel to British seaside towns.In the late 1970s, air travel became affordable (负担得起) for the average (普通的) family, and more and more British people started traveling abroad for their summer holidays. After all, the British weather isn’t very good, even in summer, so a lot of Britons leave the UK for a vacation.British holidaying habits have begun to change, however. Climate (气候) change means that the UK now has a hotter climate than before, so people do not need to go overseas to find good weather. Also, the credit crunch (信贷危机) has affected (影响) the international value of the British pound, so going abroad is more expensive than it used to be. As a result, more and more Britons are choosing to spend their summer holidays in the UK.In the UK, the domestic (国内的) tourism industry—when people go on holiday in their own country—is healthier than it has been before. UK newspapers have even invented a new word: a “staycation”. It is a term to describe the vacation when people stay in their own homes and go on a few day-trips rather than spending money on hotels.In some ways, therefore, the UK has come full circle. There is now an increased appreciation (欣赏) among Britons for the diversity (多样性) of the UK. It is not just the geography that is diverse, ranging (范围包括) from the green hills of England to the mountains of Scotland. It is also the diversity of cultures that is beginning to be of interest to domestic tourists. People forget sometimes that there are different accents (方言), languages, traditions, cuisines (美食) and peoples across all the regions of the UK.The UK has always been famous for its international explorers (探险者). It is only just starting to discover itself.16．The British weather was ________ in the late 1970s.A．very good B．not very goodC．changeable D．cold17．“Staycation” is a vacation when _________.A．people stay in hotels and go on a few day-tripsB．people travel to British seaside townsC．people stay in their homes and go on a few day-tripsD．people go abroad18．British people find that ________.A．the UK is also a good place to spend their holidays inB．more and more people like to travel to other countriesC．the UK isn’t a good place to liveD．going abroad is cheaper than it used to be19．British people are paying more attention to Britain’s ________.A．economy B．climateC．diversity D．language20．What does the passage mainly tell us?A．More and more Britons travel abroad.B．More and more Britons travel in their own country.C．The weather in the UK changes a lot.D．The credit crunch in the UK.（2022秋·八年级校考单元测试）It may be the best of times for the Chinese parents—and the worst of times for young video game players. On Monday, the government officially limited(限制) the weekly time a student can spend on video games.According to the official notice, companies can only offer services to teenagers for one hour between 8 p.m. and 9 p.m. on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and other public holidays.The move made many adults happy online and off.Research showed that youths who lost themselves in video games can play as much as 10 hours a day, and many have no interest in studies or playing with others in real life.What’s more, too much screen time at a close distance can cause myopia(近视). This can also make students not sleep well. Too much screen time may also make students become fat.While there are good sides of video games, it might be important to remember bad habits have to start somewhere. And young children should learn to control themselves and manage(管理) their time.The move sounds a little hard to kids. But as the Chinese saying goes, good advice doesn’t so und nice, and bitter medicine has effective results.It is, of course, good for kids to develop good habits. But regulations(法规) are only one piece of the problem. Parents and teachers’ help is also very important. They should suggest more healthy activiti es that can develop the youth’s love for real life—in the real world.21．How many days can’t students play video games in a week usually?A．Two. B．Three. C．Four. D．Five22．What does the writer want to express in Paragraph 7?A．The time limit is surely helpful for students.B．The time limit is a sad thing for students.C．There’re no better ways to solve the problem.D．Keep the good habit and you will make success.23．Why does the government limit the time a student can spend on video games?A．To protect the healthy development of students.B．To make parents feel more relaxed.C．To improve students’ interest in study.D．To improve the relationship between students and parents.24．How should parents or teachers help students develop good habits according to the writer?A．They should give more homework to students.B．They should play with students for longer time.C．They should lead students to join in some healthy activities.D．They should tell students more about the bad sides of playing video games.（2022秋·八年级校考单元测试）A great number of people in the world have never seen snow. Others see more of it than they want to. Hail is much more common: it happens even in deserts.Hail is a small round ball of alternating layers(交互层) of snow and clear ice. It forms inside large dark clouds that you can see before or during a storm. There are two ideas about how hailstones form (构成).One idea shows that hail forms when drops of water freeze in the upper air. As they fall, they collect more drops of water. They also collect snow. The ice and snow build up in layers. If you cut a hailstone, you can see these alternating layers.The other idea says that hail starts as a raindrop. The wind cries it higher into the atmosphere(大气层) where it gets covered by snow. It becomes heavy and begins to fall. As it falls, it gets a layer of water, which freezes. Then the wind carries it back up to the snow area, and it gets another layer of snow. This can happen a number of times. Finally the hailstone is too heavy to travel on the wind, and it falls to the ground.Only a thunderstorm, a storm with loud noises and lightning can produce hail, but very few of them do. Perhaps only one in 400 thunderstorms creates hailstones.A hailstone is usually less than eight centimeters in diameter. However, hailstones can be much bigger than that. Sometimes they are as big as baseballs. The largest hailstone which people have ever recorded weighed over 680 grams and had a diameter of thirteen centimeters.Hail can cause the death of plants, especially since hail usually appears in the middle of summer, when the plants are partly grown. If the crops are destroyed, it is too late to plant more, and the farmer has lost everything. In one terrible hailstorm in 1923 in Rostov, in Ukraine, twenty-three people and many farm animals were killed. 25．Which of the following is about HAIL?A． B．C．D．26．According to the passage, which of the following is the fact about hail?A．Hail is formed of snow and ice.B．Hail can’t be found in deserts any more.C．Hail often comes in cold winter.D．People can see snow more often than hail.A．Noises. B．Hailstones. C．Thunderstorms. D．Deserts.28．What’s the passage mainly about?A．Different ideas about how hail forms.B．A brief introduction about hail.C．The size and the weight of hailstones.D．The influence that hail causes.29．The Art Festival in Lushan Middle School lasted for _______.A．two days B．four days C．seven days30．Which of the following activities is NOT in Lushan Art Festival?A．Dyeing the T-shirt.B．Making things out of paper.C．Holding a dancing competition.（2022秋·浙江杭州·八年级统考期末）Many people like to travel when they have time off from school or work. They might go to their hometown to see their family, or travel somewhere far. But not everyone does this, more and more people are choosing to take a “staycation”.A staycation is a new word for a period of time when people stay at home on vacation or take day trips from their home to local（当地的）places of interest. Some people might travel around their city, visiting local parks and museums. Others might try countryside trips and take part in local festivals. People like me love to just stay at home.I had a staycation of my own over the summer. I slept late every day. I worked on music and played videogames. I wasn’t too lonely（孤独的）. I had my cat to play with, and I got together with some of my friends around the city.Traveling is fun, but it’s also nice to just stay home and relax. It’s cheaper as well, since I don’t have to pay for travel. And you can choose to do whatever you like, if you want, just do nothing. There’s nothing wro ng with that. 31．Which of the following things might people do during a staycation? ________A．Studying hard at school.B．Going back to their hometown.C．Traveling around their city.D．Traveling somewhere far.32．How did the writer feel during his staycation? ________A．Busy.B．Bored.C．Relaxed.D．Lonely.33．What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? ________A．City life with friends.B．My Staycation experience.C．Holidays and vacations.D．New Year’s Resolution.A．Doing nothing.B．Traveling around.C．Paying for travel.D．Visiting some friends.（2022秋·天津滨海新·八年级统考期末）Jay and Joan like to spend the winter holiday with their mum and dad.

The one time I wasn’t sure of that was on September 11.I usually wake up a 6:30 or 7:00 in the morning. That day, I happened to wake up earlier. I turned on the TV and I saw that a plane had crashed (撞击) into the North Tower of the World Trade Center. My first reaction (反应) was that it was a terrible accident. Then I saw another plane fly into the South Tower and I realized that I was witnessing (目击) an act of terrorism.My wife and I spent the day watching the terrible pictures over again. When I watched family members looking for their loved ones, the pain in their eyes was something I would never forget. I couldn’t understand how something this terrible could have happened.It wasn’t until a few weeks after September 11 that I began to see that perhaps some good did come from this tragedy (悲剧). People seem different now, more understanding, more tolerant(宽容的). Little things that seemed to be such a trouble before are no longer big things. Personally, I am more tolerant than I was. I realize life is too short, and too precious(珍贵的), to let myself get worried over small things. I’ve learned also that you can’t take things for granted. Things change in the blink of an eye. People go to work and don’t come back. One moment they’re living and the next minute they’re not. And, it doesn’t matter who you are, there is nothing you can do about it. We never know when our time here will be over, so we all need to make the most of every minute we have.You try to learn from what happened. You can’t be used up by it. You can’t live by it. All you can do is just live.1. The word “positive”in the passage probably means ______.A. terribleB. badC. goodD. real2. What did the writer see after he turned on the TV that morning?A. A fire startingB. A plane flyingC. A terrible accidentD. An act of terrorism.3. From September 11, the writer had realized that___________.A. people should make the most of every minute they haveB. he has become less tolerant towards othersC. he should get worried about little thingsD. life is too short to care about others.4. What’s t he best title of this passage?A. A Report about September 11B. The Tragedy of September 11C. September 11 and My FamilyD. September 11 and My Turn.参考答案CDAD第3篇My father is tall and has short gray hair. He wears glasses with heavy black frames(框). But I just saw a picture of him from 1968. What a surprise!

That yeat ,Daguere,another Frenchman, took a picture of his reading room .He used a new kind of camera in a differentway. In his picture you couild see exerything very clearly, even the smallest thing. This kind of photo was called a Daguerreotype.Soon, other people began to use Daguerre’s way. Travellers brought back wondeful photos from all around the world. People took picture of famous buildings, cities and mountains. In 1840, photography was developed. Then photographers could take picture of people and moving things. That was not simple. The photographers had to carry a lot of film and other machines.

Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is a little bit cold. As the world has changed, the word has had many different meanings.“Cool”can be used to express feelings of interest in almost anything. When you see a famous car in the street, maybe you will say “It's cool.”You may think, “He's so cool,”when you see your favourite footballer.We all maximize (扩大) the meaning of “cool”. You can use it instead of many words such as “new”or “surprising”. Here's an interesting story we can use to show the way the word is used. A teacher asked her students to write about the waterfall (瀑布) they had visited. On one student's paper was just the one sentence, “It's so cool”. Maybe he thought it was the best way to show what he saw and felt.But the story also shows a scarcity (缺乏) of words. Without “cool”, somepeople have no words to show the same meaning. So it is quite important to keep some credibility (可信性). Can you think of many other words that make your life as colourful as the word “cool”? I can. And I think they are also very cool.1.
