2020-2021学年牛津译林版英语八年级下学期期中复习2 (含答案)

牛津译林版8B英语期中复习--任务型阅读+首字母填空（一）Each summer, you hear news that some sports players are sent to hospitals because it is too hot. Our bodies can’t be outside in the sun for a long time. So in hot summers, be careful about playing sports outside.Firstly, to play sports safely in hot weather, you must drink water. Sports drinks are great for athletes, but they have so much sugar that they’ll dehydrate(使脱水) you more. However, drinking a few bottles of sports drinks will be good for you.Secondly, be sure to ta ke enough rest to let your body rest. If your coach doesn’t let you do so in the heat, don’t wait until you feel uncomfortable. Just be honest with your coach when you need rest.Thirdly, when you have a rest, don’t sit in the sun. With the sun beating dow n on you, you’ll only heat up and sweat(冒汗) more. Take a seat under a tree, or even better, go indoors for a little while. Cooling yourself down can help you stay active longer.Fourthly, remember that the earlier in the day you start your exercise, the cooler it will be. If you can start practice before the sun comes up, you have a few good hours to practice in the cool hours of the morning. Also, the earlier you practice, the earlier you can finish the exercise. If you need more practice time, come back to the field later in the evening when the sun is setting.Last but not least, you should watch your food. Eat food which is high in water, starch(淀粉) and carbohydrate(糖类), but be sure to get a good balance in your diet.As long as you pay attention to the above, playing sports safely in the heat isn’t a（二）Everyone has worries. But what can you do when you have 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 can know what you're worrying about. Other times, you might not. Try to find it out first. if you can't, you can ask others for help.2. Think of ways to make it betterThere is always something you can do to help you feel less worried. Sitting thereworrying can'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 (复习课堂笔记) evenwhen 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 can do: write a note to him or her, invite him or her to a basketball game, say sorry to him or her and so on. If you know the things you can do, you can do one of them to get your friend back.3. Ask for helpWhen you're worried, it can help to find someone to talk to. You can ask your（三）Sometimes it may seem difficult to improve our health. If so, the following health habits may help you.Eat breakfast every morningResearch(研究) shows that if you eat a meal in the morning, you may not become too fat or eat too much during lunch. Eating breakfast can help people feel better through the day.Get enough sleepPoor sleep can influence(影响) our memory and learning. It can also cause traffic accidents! Studies show that people who don’t get enough sleep seem to get into more accidents. So stay safe and get enough sleep!Take a walk every dayWalking is an easy way of exercising. You’d better meet friends for a walk, not for a meal. As you walk, you will see the beautiful world around you. Once you try, you’ll find that adding a walk into your daily life is very easy.Join social groupsSocial groups can provide support. They might include sport teams, art or musicgroups. The people in the group can offer advice and can help each other in difficulttimes. Also, being in a group keeps your mind busy. And active mind is a healthymind.Have a hobbyA hobby could be running, reading or making something with your hands. ◆It may ___4____ traffic accidentsevery ◆Walking is an easy way of ___5____. You’d better meet friends for a walk __6___ of a meal. ◆Enj oy the ___7____ world around you while walking.◆You can get much support, ___8____ and help from socialHas anyone ever told you that eating carrots will help you see in the dark? Thisis just one of many incorrect thoughts you may have heard. Below, TEENS haspicked out scientific explanations for three mistakes that people make about their eyes.Let’s take a look.Can eating more carrots help you see better?Carrots are rich in vitamin A, which helps the eyes to turn light into informationfor your brain.This allows people to see in darker places.However, eating more carrots won’t help you see better. A certain minimumamount will help, but a large number of carrots will not give you superhuman vision.If your parents have bad eyesight, will you have bad eyesight, too?Parents can pass myopia(近视）onto children.A study by the American Optometric Association found that if both parents aremyopic, there’s a 33 to 60 percent chance that their child will be. For children whohave one parent with myo pia, the chance is 23 to 40 percent, and it’s down to 6 to 15percent for kids with non-myopic parents. So though your eyesight is bad, yourchildren might still have good vision.Do color blind people see the world in black and white?Color blindness doesn’t usually mean that people see the world in black andwhite.They usually can’t tell certain colors apart, especially green and red. Anothercommonly confused pair of colors is yellow and blue.Our eyes have cone cells(视锥细胞), they can sense different wavelengths(波长) oflight. Color blindness will appear if people’s cone cells don’t work in a proper way.There are different levels of color blindness. Some people are only color blind inlow light. However, in the most serious form of color blindness, everything is shadesof gray.（五）Typing(打字) is one of the most important and basic work skills of the 21st century. Because mobile phones are now so popular, there is a new kind of typing-thumbing. Thumbing means people use one or more thumbs(拇指) to touch the keys.Most people can type between 20 and 35 words a minute. Some typists, however, can work very quickly, at more than 110 words a minute. And people’s left hand usually does 56 percent of the typing.The most common international English keyboard is QWERTY. People name it after the first letters on the top left side of the keyboard. It is more than 140 years old. Other keyboards include QWERTY (in Central Europe) and AZERTY (used by most French speakers in Europe). Countries with non-Roman alphabets(字母系统), such as, Arabia, Russia or Japan, have their own keyboards.People practise the sentence ”The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog” to make their typing better. That’s because it uses every letter o f the English alphabet.Thumbing and typing can hurt you. RSI (repetitive strain injury) is the name of a medical condition you get if you type too much. However, most people do not understand what RSI is or how serious it can be. Anyone who uses a computer a lot is（六）If you want to know which social media platforms Chinese youths like now, you better not miss short videos. On popular short video apps, including Douyin and Kuaishou, users can upload(上传) short videos, the content of which are from cooking and physical exercise to dancing and gatherings, and share them with other users.A 12-year-old user named Xiaoqianyu has up to 2.6 million followers on Douyin.The girl, who has enjoyed dancing since she was inkindergarten（幼儿园）, has uploaded videos showingher learning jazz dance and finger dance since lastJuly. One of the videos won her about one million fans,and she has become famous as a result. "whilerecording the movements, I add music to the video, soit is easy and fun to shoot the videos," said Xiaoqianyu.Another user, named Xiaozhou, she likes Kuaishou best. "Most people think the life showed on Kuaishou is low. Instead, I think those videos give those people a voice. The short videos in different types bring happiness to their daily life." Xiaozhou said.However, some young Chinese feel bored with some short videos."Killing time is the only reason for me to watch the short videos, but I really don't like the content of the videos. Moreover, many dances in the videos are almost the same, which are boring ." said Houyu, a 21-year-old student at Anhui Foreign Language University.The main reason behind the fast development（发展）of short videos is to attract （吸引）others’ attention. Short videos encourage users to show themselves and funny things. So the youths make short videos to share with others and invite them to understand what they think is funny.Popular social media platforms-- short videosPeople who like short videos Xiaoqianyu The girl __1__to enjoy dancing when she was in kindergarten.She became famous _2__one of her videos won herabout one million fans.She _3___ it easy and fun to shoot the videos.

译林牛津英语八年级下册Unit 2阅读理解随堂练习（无答案）1We can see walls everywhere in the world. But the Great Wall of China is the longest of all. The Chinese call it “The Ten-thousand-li Great Wall”. It is in fact more than 6 ,000 kilometres long. It is 4 to 5 metres wide. In most places,five horses or ten men can walk side by side.When you visit the Great Wall,you can^ help wondering how the Chinese people were able to build such a great wall thousands of years ago. Without any modern machines,it was really very difficult to build it. They had to do all the work by hand. It took millions of men hundreds of years to build it.The Great Wall has a hi^story of over two thousand years. The kings began to build the first parts of it around two thousand seven hundred years ago. Then the first emperor of Qin had all the walls joined up.

We went with our friends Edward Smith and his wife Tina to the Yorkshire Moors. This is a beautiful place. It is a natural park. There are lots of places to walk on the tops of the hills, miles of grassland with no people, just sheep and birds.Edward, who had just come out of hospital, could not walk as far as be used to. However this meant that we walked in the mornings, and then stopped at a cafe for lunch each day, before returning to the place we live. Edward and I slept in front of the fire all afternoon, while the ladies went for another walk. Very pleasant!I have taken lots of photos from the place we live, across the valley（峡谷）below us, of the morning sunrise, and the mist in the valley. Also, in England, the old steam powered trains（蒸汽火车）are very popular. I have taken many photos of the train and from it.Yesterday we had the first snow of this winter. It is very early （we usually expect snow in January）. It rained all day, then snowed in the evening. Today we have bright sunshine!Both Jenny and I are well I don’t know if I told you, in the last e-mail, that Jenny is now working in a hotel.

This is how wind power works. Wind makes windmills spin (旋转). When the windmills spin, they make electricity. Then we can use the electricity.A lot of people think that wind power is new, but that’s not true.For thousands of years, people have used wind to sail boats and move water. We still do those things today, but these days we mostly use wind power to make electricity.Wind power is a very popular source of energy. Most people think that we should use it more and more. First of all, it’s clean. Windmills don’t pollute the environment at all. Second, we can use wind power forever. After all, we will always have wi nd. Also, wind power is cheap, and it’s getting even cheaper.A lot of people don’t understand wind power very well. They believe that there are problems with wind power, but many of those problems are not real. For example, some people say that windmills are dangerous for birds. They used to be true, but it isn’t true anymore. Old windmills killed birds because they spun very fast. New windmills spin slowly, and they aren’t dangerous for birds.However, there are real problems with windmills. One problem is that many people think windmills are very ugly. This is a problem for people, because windmills are often in very pretty areas. Also, wind doesn’t blow all the time, so we can’t use wind power all the time. Finally, windmills are noisy.Wind power is becoming more and more common. Right now, more than 80 countries use wind power. About 2.5 percent of the world’s power comes from the wind. For some countries, that number is a lot higher. Wind power gives Denmark more than 25 percent of its electricity.1. Why DON’T new windmills kill birds? Because .A. birds don’t fly near themB. they spin slowlyC. they are shorter than old windmillsD. new windmills don’t spin2. When did people start using wind power?A. About 25 years ago.B. About 80 years ago.C. About 500 years ago.D. Over 1,000 years ago.3. , so we CAN’T use wind power all the time.A. Windmills break all the timeB. We can’t use windmills at nightC. Windmills are too expensive to use all the timeD. Wind doesn’t blow all the time4. What does the article say about wind power?A. Most people don’t like it.B. It’s getting cheaper.C. Denmark doesn’t use it.D. It’s getting more expensive.5. What is the best title for the passage?A. Expensive WindmillsB. Cheap and Clean EnergyC. Popular and Clean Wind PowerD. Dangerous Birds答案：BDDBB4Traveling can be expensive. But there are some ways to save money when traveling. Try some of the advice below on your next vacation and your wallet will thank you.Look for city tourism cards. With the card, you can pay less at restaurants and shops. You don’ t have to wait for a long time at busy attractions. You might even get free tickets to top tourist attractions. City tourism cards can save your money and time without question.Don’t get the best room. How long will you stay in your room? Will you just be sleeping there? Do you really need a bigger room with a good view（景色）?Find a hotel outside a city. It can help you save some money by choosing a hotel away from big tourist attractions, for you are always doing the same--go to the attractions and then return to your hotel to sleep.Book （预订）a room with a kitchen. Although some people might not like to cook while on vacation, I don’t mind making breakfast in my room. We always eat at a nice restaurant on our last night of the vacation.I’d rather eat breakfast and lunch at the hotel and then spend much money on a delicious supper.1.With,you can pay less at restaurants and shops.A.ID cardsB. tourism cardsC. bank cardsD. phone cards2.The underlined words “tourist attractions” in Paragraph 2 mean .A. 旅游方式B.旅游设施C.旅游手册D.旅游景点3.To save some money, the writer advises tourists to .A. get the best roomB. live near big tourist attractionsC. live away from big tourist attractionsD. take a map with them when traveling4.The writer prefers to make breakfast and lunch in the hotel because .A.they are healthier and more deliciousB.he likes cookers in the hotelC.there are not any restaurants in the neighborhoodD.he’d rather, spend much money on a delicious supper5.What does the passage mainly talk about?A. How to save money when traveling.B. How to get a tourism card.C. How to find a hotel outside a city.D. How to book a room on the Internet.答案：BDCDA5If you are planning to study in the United States, you need to consider several factors. Everyone has different opinions about where is the best place to live in. Also, the best places to live are not always home to the best schools. Finally, many schools specialize in different areas of study. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology, for example, is a great school for computer science and technology-related fields of study. However, if you want to study oceanography (海洋学), your interests may be better served by attending school in a place that is on a coastline or near the ocean.Now I am sure that you know which schools are considered the best in the country. So I will tell you about which states I believe are the best to live in.California is a nice state. Northern California specifically has very good weather. Los Angeles in Southern California is another story though. Life in Los Angeles is full of excitement and fast,and sometimes dangerous.As for me, I enjoy the time I spent in Massachusetts, Virginia and Maryland and these states have a lot of history and culture. The weather is not as perfect as California, but it is still quite nice. My favorite areaof America is the Mid-west. Middle America, I think, is home to the true American sense of values. In addition, there are many good universities there.Also, you need to think about your likes and dislikes and then research the various states. You like sunshine and hate snow? Then you probably won't like the Midwest or even the Northeast. Open space, nature and peace and quiet? Then you probably should stay away from America's large cities. Are you interested in government? Then Washington D.C. is the only place for you. Whatever you decide, put some thought into it.The place you live could be the difference between a great study-abroad experience and a state of great suffering on earth.1. From the first paragraph we can conclude (得出结论) that in the USA _____.A. all colleges and universities lie in big citiesB. all colleges and universities lie in beautiful placesC. famous colleges and universities lie in nice placesD. famous colleges and universities may not lie in nice places2. What should be considered first if you want to study in the USA?A. The climate.B. The scenery.C. The study condition.D. The living condition.3. From the third paragraph we can find that _____.A. California is the best place to live inB. California is the worst place to live inC. California is a state with different climatesD. California is a small state in the USA4. If you study in Middle America, you can probably _____.A. find the best universitiesB. feel the real character of the nationC. meet the most famous professors thereD. face more difficulties5. From the last paragraph of this passage we can get to know that _____.A. Washington is the largest city in the USAB. Washington is the political centre of the USAC. you can't find sunshine in the MidwestD. you can't find any universities out of big cities in the USA答案：DCCBB6Every time you turn on the television or take a ride in a car,you could be adding to a problem called acid rain (酸雨). In this article, you'll learn how acid is created, and how it affects us, and more importantly, what we all can do to prevent it.How is acid rain created?When people use fuels (燃料), such as coal and gasoline, poisonous gases are give off. When these gases mix with rain, acid rain forms. Many power stations burn fuels in order to creat the electricity (电) that we use in our homes and offices every day. Cars and trucks also send these gases into the air when they burn gasoline.When rain mixes with these gases, harmful things called acids form. This is acid rain.How does acid rain affect us?Acid rain damages (毁坏) everything that it touches. It poisons our rivers, ponds, lakes, and oceans along with all the life in them. It pollutes our soil and crops, harms trees, and can even kill fish and plants. Acid rain also eats away at buildings.How can we prevent acid rain?We need to cut down on the pollution that gets into our air. Turn off lights, television, and other electrical appliances if you are not using them, Walk or take a bike whenever possible. If you are travelling a long distance, take a bus or train to save fuel.As research shows, acid rain harms our environment. But people everywhere can take small steps now to help protect our environment for future generations.1. When power stations burn fuel, ______.A. acid rain formB. air pollution is causedC. noise pollution is causedD. acid rain gets heavier2. According to the article, acid rain affects us ______.A. suddenlyB. slightlyC. seriouslyD. immediately3. What advice does the article give us?A. Go to school on foot or by bike if we can.B. Go to bed earlier in order to use less electricity.C. Travel by bus to prevent acid rain.D. Turn off the television on rainy days.4. What is the best title of the article?A. Preventing Acid RainB.
