today？You go to school and do yourhomework，right？At home you probably do a few simple chores，like washing the dishes or making your bed．You might complain about not having enough free time to relax．In

in the world still don't have enough food to eat．The food shortage（短缺）is a big problem all over the world．Now，there are more than 1000million hungry people in the world according to the UN．Many children go to sleep hungry，and 15million of them die of hunger each year．There are several reasons for food shortage．First，there are more naturaldisasters．Also，a growing population（人口）makes feeding everyone more difficult．Another big reason is food waste．Most people don't realize how much food they throw away every day．The average（平均的）person throws away 50kg of food every year．According to the UN，more than one third of all food goes to waste each year．Over 1，300billion kilograms of food is wasted each year．The food wasted in Europe can feed 200million people，while in Latin America 300million a year．So think twice before you throw away food．You'd better order as much food as you can eat at a restaurant．If you can't eat all，take the rest home．Some food may not taste great，but your body needs it．Keep an eye on what food you have at home．Don't buy too much．Don't cook too much．When you throw away food，you are not just wasting the food itself．Resources（资源），such as energy，time and water，are also wasted while growing and cooking．So everyone should know that it is important to save food．Saving food is saving ourselves．Title：Introduction to World Food

成员，是泛指，用不定冠词，因member是以辅音音素开头的单词，所以第一个空格用a，最受欢迎的十几岁歌手之一，形容词的最高级前用定冠词the，所以第二个空格用the．由题干"﹣﹣你认识王俊凯，一个TF

yard!可知这里考查了感叹句，本句的中心词是fun，它是一个不可数名词，great是一个形容词，在这里修饰fun，根据What+形容词+可数名词复数/不可数名词+主语+谓语!，这里have fun doing sth表示高兴做某事．故选A．【点评】本题考查了感叹句的用法．解答时需注意感叹句的基本结构：What+a/an+形容词+可数名词单数+主语+谓语!What+形容词+可数名词复数/不可数名词+主语+谓语!How+形容词/副词+主语+谓语!29．（1分）﹣﹣﹣We couldn't find you anywhere around 8o'clock yesterday evening．﹣﹣﹣I'm

evening结合语境推测答语的句意是""抱歉，那时我在超市里购物．判断设空处的动作在过去某个时间段内正在进行着，且动作在一段时间内持续进行，所以用过去进行时，过去进行时的构成是：主语+was/were+动词的现在分词；故选C．【点评】本题考查了动词的时态．做题时，一定要特别关注有关的时间短语，这是判断句子时态的标志．在没有时间状语的情况下可以联系上下文根据状语从句的类型来做出正确判断．30．（1分）You

do是停下来去做某事，而stop doing是停止做这件事，从句意可知，应该是停下来休息一下，故选A．【点评】动词的基本用法是作谓语．当句中已经有了谓语动词了，要选或要填的动词就只能用非谓语形式了．非谓语形式有三种：1、动词不定式：to do 2、动词的ing：doing 3、动词的过去分词：done，在解决此类题目时，一定要找出动词的位置，再就是熟记一些固定搭配．31．（1分）Millions

city任何城市，指不在同一范围比较；any other city其他任一城市，指在同一范围比较，符合题意，故选B．【点评】解答这类试题时，务必充分理解上下文的语境和前后文的逻辑关系，找到解题的依据，同时正确区分选项的细微差别，准确作答．33．（1分）﹣________does your pet dog weigh？﹣About 8kilograms．（）A．What B．How C．How

Students at the Philips Academy Charter School in the US say their lunch tastes fresh and “proud” (⾃豪的).From grades 6 to 8, students in the school had to grow their own lunch. On the small farm inside their kitchen, they grew vegetables like broccoli and many kinds of Asian Greens.For most students, it was the first time for them to see how food is produced (⽣产).The greens grow under lights. Each month, students from different grades come to water them. The farm produces about 8 pounds (3.6kg) of leafy greens every three weeks. The fresh food then goes to the students’ tables.“We harvest it and then it’s used in the kitchen. We’re eating it during lunch, and it’s f un,” said Yves Millien, 14.And this project (项⽬) is not only good for teaching science. It also helped change students’ eating habits. Catkin Flowers, 13, hated greens before. She thought they tasted bad. However, after she grew her own vegetables, Catkin changed her mind.“I made this and I want to eat it because it’s good and I am proud of it,” said Flowers.36. Why do the students say their lunch tastes “proud”?A. Because they grow their own lunch.B. Because their lunch tastes delicious.C. Because they cook their own lunch.D. Because their lunch is good for health.37. Where do the students grow vegetables?A. On a nearby farm.B. On the playground.C. In their classrooms.D. In their school kitchen.38.

扬州地区八年级学期期末英语试卷分类汇编任务型阅读扬州中学教育集团树人学校（2018-2019）A book which is still being discussed by many Americans today is “Future Shock” by Alvin Toffler. In this book the writer describes the great changes which have been made in family life because of science and industry.In the past, when more Americans lived on farms, the typical(典型的) family had many children. In a farm family, parents and their children often lived with grandparents. Uncles and aunts often lived nearby, too. But now, when industry has become more important than agriculture(农业) in American life, families are becoming smaller and smaller. Industry requires workers who are ready and able to move off the land to move again whenever necessary. Large families can’t be moved from place to place as easily as smaller families can.In the future, a typical family will be required to move even more often than now, so families will be even smaller .The typical family may keep childless and consist only of a man and a woman. A smaller number of families may raise(养育) children. These families may raise children as their main occupation, leaving the childless families free to move from job to job. What’s more, these child -raising families may raise other people’s children in addition to their own. The book 76Future Shock77Alvin Toffler Content(内容):78 life has been changing greatly in America.

It lives in nature in Africa, butpeople raise it all over the world for its meat.The ostrich has long skinny legs, a big body with small wings, a long neck, and a dangerous long beak.

The ostrich usually weighs between 200 and 300 pounds and can grow to 9 feettall. Its large body is covered with feathers.The ostrich is famous for its speed on the ground. Its powerful legs help it reach speeds of 40 miles per hour! Ostriches can also use their strong legs to kick any enemy or even kill a man or a lion. However, the ostrich will just use its speed to run away from any danger most of the time.Ostriches eat almost everything, such as plants, insects, and small animals like lizards. They often live in groups. A group will have around ten birds, but some groups even have 100 birds. This way the whole group can help to protect the eggs. Ostrich eggs are the biggest eggs of any animal.In fa ct, ostriches don’t put their head in the ground often.

Here is how it happens.1. Preparing too much before travellingSome people, especially females, like to travel as if starting a new life. Several weeks before the trip, they would be busy shopping for new dresses, better sunglasses and best-selling books. They would rather fill their travelling bags up with all fashionable things. Just travelling? Attending a fashion show more like it. They care more about their appearance than the sights they see during the trip.2. Following other travellers blindlyThey can't stop shopping for objects they would never normally buy and would certainly never use. For example, we can find a group of travellers "getting ahead" to buy "Christmas" presents even in summer.3.

Slow living makes us live more healthily. Here are some easy tips for slowing down everyday life.l. Don't do things we don't want to and can't do.We all have habits. But we really don't have to do those things, such as shopping, watching TV, surfing the Internet, smoking. We can save time and money by cutting these out, and many of these habits are also bad for our health.2. Do one thing at a time.We feel nervous when we have too many tasks, and the day rushes by when we do them. If we drive, then we should just drive: no phone calls, no learning another language, no planning andthinking. Instead, we can enjoy driving: listening to the motor and looking out of the window.3. Choose lighter and slower rings and music a round us.Have you ever noticed how stressful your ringing phone is?Try to use a different ring tone and life will be happier. Relaxing music and soft music always help between busy meetings and during short d rives from one busy place to another.4. Enjoy details.Use waiting time, not for hard thinking, but just watch and enjoy details. Have you noticed how beautifully the rain dances on the window of your car? And how things look in the mirror at a traffic jam? When was the last time you smelled the roses? When was the last time you were all dining at the table together without mobile phones?Slow living can give us a longer, better and 76 life.Four 77 for slowing down everyday life * Don't do things we don't want to and can't do.We needn't do the 78 like shopping and watching TV.If we 79 the bad habits out, we can save time and money.* Do one thing at a time.Too many tasks 80 us feel nervous.We just drive 81 making phone calls or learning another language. * Choose lighter and 82 rings and music around us.
