See if he or she is fit for travel and ask if he or she should have any medicine before leaving. The vet may suggest certain pills for sickness or for calming the pet.Some states or foreign countries have health laws that say animals must have certain injections(注射)before they can be allowed to enter. Your vet may have this information. You can also get help on the United States and Canadian laws from a book published by the Department of Agriculture which some libraries have. For information on foreign countries，check with their consulates (领事馆).You can also ask the airlines on which you are travelling.Find out if the places where you plan to stay allow pets because many do not.If you are going by plane or train，ask if pets are allowed. If they are，ask where they will be kept and who will care for them. The big bus lines in this country do not allow pets.Choose your pet’s box carefully. Plastic boxes are better than cardboard or wooden ones because they can' be chewed(嚼碎).If going by plane or train during warm weather，try to go in the cooler early morning or evening hours. Also try to avoid (避免)very cold winter weather because pets often suffer from cold. Even in your own car，be careful. Do not leave the animal inside with the windows closed because the car may become too hot or too cold.31.When taking a pet on a trip，a pet owner________A. doesn't need to make any special plansB. should stay at friends' homesC. should make plans before leaving homeD. should travel by bus instead of plane32.From the passage，we can learn that________A. it costs too much to take pets on tripsB. some pets may not be well enough to travelC. all train lines treat pets exactly the sameD. pets are welcome everywhere33.Which person would be the most interested in this passage?A.

He reminds the other dinner guests that it's true what they say about teachers: Those who can, do; those who can't, teach.I decide to bite my tongue(舌头)instead of biting his and stop myself from reminding the other dinner guests that it's also true what they say about lawyers -- that they make money from the bad luck of others."I mean, you're a teacher, Taylor," he says to me. "Be honest. What do you make?"I wish he hadn't asked me to be honest, because now I have to teach him a lesson.You want to know what I make?I make kids work harder than they ever thought they could.I can make a C+ feel like a great achievement and an A- feel like a failure.How dare you waste my time with anything less than your very best?I make parents tremble(颤抖) in fear when I call them:I hope I haven't called at a bad time,I just wanted to talk to you about something Billy said today.Billy said, "Leave the kid alone. I still cry sometimes, don't you?"And it was the bravest act I have ever seen.I make parents see their children for who they are and what they can be.You want to know what I make?I make kids wonder.I make them question.I make them criticize(批评).I make them think.I make them apologize and mean it.I make them write, write, write.And then I make them read.I teach them to solve math problems that they once thought impossible.I make them understand that if you have brains then you follow your heart and if someone ever tries to judge you by what you make, you teach them a lesson.Let me make this simple for you, so you know what I say is true:I make a great difference!

Does it look like anything? Is it supposed to?Abstract art became popular in the early 20th century. Artists did not want to paint, draw, or sculpt (雕刻) things exactly like they looked. They didn’t want their art to be realistic. They were more interested in basic shapes and colours.Picasso is probably the most famous of these artists. He painted and drew in many, many styles. Sometimes he used a lot of blue colours (his “blue period”). Later, he used more red and pink colours (his “rose period”). Many of his other paintings are called “cubist(立体画派)” because they are made of painted squares.After a long time, Picasso’s paintings became more and more abstract. He painted people and things using strange shapes. His work was so original (独创的) that many of his fellow (同事) artists didn’t understand it.Kandinsky, another famous artist, used lines, shapes, and patterns to paint his subjects. His paintings also used strong colours to express feelings.Other artists like the surrealists(超现实主义者), were interested in subconscious(潜意识). Painters like Breton and Magritte used many symbols in their work. The meaning or subject of their work wasn't always clear. Dali, another surrealist artist, painted pictures that look like dreams.There are still many abstract artists around the world. It’s often hard to say exactly what their art is about. That's the way many artists prefer. They want each person to look at art and find their own meaning in it.38. Which of the following is supposed to be most like abstract art?A. A painting of a house.B. A sculpture of a car.C. A drawing of two people in a coffee house.D. A red and blue painting, with no clear subject.39. Who is probably the most famous abstract artist?A. Picasso.B. Breton.C. Dali.D. Magritte.40. Kandinsky express feelings ________________________.A. by using colours and shapesB. by painting realistic peopleC. by painting with a lot of symbolsD. by painting in red and pink colours41. According to the passage, which is NOT true?A. Picasso painted in many different styles.B. Dali was interested in painting pictures like dreams.C. Abstract artists feel each work of art only has one meaning.D. Magritte’s art was full of symbols.九年级上册Unit 8（主观题部分共计48分）一、词汇（12分）1.Your cut is ___________________(blood).
