人教版八年级上册英语Unit10阅读强化训练试题及答案Passage1阅读理解Many teenagers feel that the most important people in their lives are their friends. They believe that their family members, and even their parents, don't know them as well as their friends do. In large families, it is quite often for brothers and sisters to fight with each other and then they can only go to their friends for advice.It is very important for teenagers to have good friends. Even when they are not with their friends, they usually spend a lot of time talking on the phone. This communication(交流) is very important in children's growing up, because friends can discuss something difficult to say to their family members.However, parents often try to choose their children's friends for them. Some parents may even stop their children from meeting their good friends. Have you ever thought of the following questions?Who chooses your friends?Do you choose your friends or your friends choose you?Have you got a good friend your parents don't like?Your answers are welcome.根据材料内容选择最佳答案。

In 868 AD, there was the earliest printed book. It was in a cave inDunhuang. Woodblock printing took much time because every page in a book needed a new woodblock. By the 12th century there were printed books all over China. They included books of Confucius, dictionaries, and books on maths. In 1341 printed books had two colours, black and red.Although the Chinese learned about printing so early, no one brought printing to other parts of the world for hundreds of years. It is thought that when the great Italian traveller Marco Polo visited China in the 13th century, he saw printed books. But printed books did not come to Europe until 1450 when a German named Johannes Gutenberg invented a printing machine. Twenty-six years later, in 1476, a British man named William Caxton made the first printed book in English. His second book was about the game of chess.

If you eat more fruit and vegetables, you will be soon all right. Please have a nice day.”The second one to use the machine was a Chinese girl. She stood on the machine and waited to hear her weight. “Good morning, Miss.” The machine said in Chinese. “Y our weight is 45 kilograms. It’s all right for your age.

Horses also use their tails in the same way. Some animals hang by their tails. Monkeys often do this. Then they can use all four of their paws(爪子)for other things such as eating. Monkeys use their tails as a hanger, which can help them hang in the trees and climb trees. Animals that live in the water use their tails to help them swim. A fish uses its tail from side to side. A kangaroo has a large, useful tail. It’s like a chair. The kangaroo stands on its tail to rest. It helps the kangaroo stand well. The tail is also good for landing. This is important because an adult kangaroo can jump as far as 15 feetover its nose and paws while it sleeps.

人教版八年级英语上册阅读理解10篇(一)If you see someone fall onto the ground because of a heart problem, what will you do before doctors come? Chen Wenqiao set a good example when he was 14. He did CPR (心肺复苏) in his school and saved a man's life in 2013. 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. Forty percent of people in France are also trained in first aid.()1. About CPR, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. It is very difficult to learn.B. It is the most important first-aid.C. ht plays the biggest role during the first four minutes of a heart problem.()2.What should we do when we are doing the CPR?①take a course ① blow air through the mouth and into the heart①press on the chest①find out if the person is unconsciousA.①①①B.①①①C.①①①()3.

To show us the popularity (普及) of CPR.C.To ask us to help people with a heart attack(二)Fish and chips, and Chinese take-away food(熟食) are very popular in England. 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. It looks like bread with meat in it. Hamburgers are delicious. They are very popular in the world.Chinese food has different tastes and is usually very delicious.

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 Christmas(四)When 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.

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?(五)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)。

My name's Zhao Peng.My sister Zhao Rui is a teacher.She isn't in Nanjing with us.She works in a small school in Guang'an,Sichuan.She works very hard(努力地).Every morning after breakfast,she goes to four of her students' homes and brings them to school.It takes them a quarter to get to school on foot (步行).At around 8:20 a.m.,the students have the first class.After four classes,they have lunch at school.During (在……期间)the lunch time,my sister tells them about family,friends,life and love.The students like listening to her very much.In the afternoon,classes are from 1:00 p.m.to 4:00 p.m.After school,she takes the four students to their homes.In the evening,my sister doesn't havetime to watch TV or play computer games.After dinner,she checks (检查)her students' homework.She goes to bed at

p.m.29.(8分)WeChat is popular among us,but if someone deletes you or blocks(屏蔽)you on it,does it mean you've made him or her angry?It depends.Maybe you have just left messages too often without much useful information.For example,the questions are those like 'how are u?"what are u doing?"do u love me?' too often.You know,people may feel bored after answering such kinds of questions time after time.Another possible reason may be that you've sent something sad to your friend or in your friend circle.I just blocked one of my middle school classmates yesterday because she was trying to sell fake goods(商品)in the friend circle,and I hate it quite much.Some people delete the one's name from friends' list because they no longer want to see it (maybe ex﹣boyfriend or ex﹣girlfriend)and they don't want the one to see their "Moments" (动态,朋友圈)on WeChat (maybe they publish(公布)very personal pictures of life or thoughts they don't want to share with him or her.)So why you are blocked may depend on his or her mood or preference (喜好),and the reasons are different from person to person.So I suggest you to write an email or make a phone call to that person if he or she really means a lot

In 868 AD, there was the earliest printed book. It was in a cave inDunhuang. Woodblock printing took much time because every page in a book needed a new woodblock. By the 12th century there were printed books all over China. They included books of Confucius, dictionaries, and books on maths. In 1341 printed books had two colours, black and red.Although the Chinese learned about printing so early, no one brought printing to other parts of the world for hundreds of years. It is thought that when the great Italian traveller Marco Polo visited China in the 13th century, he saw printed books. But printed books did not come to Europe until 1450 when a German named Johannes Gutenberg invented a printing machine. Twenty-six years later, in 1476, a British man named William Caxton made the first printed book in English. His second book was about the game of chess. Caxton printed about a hundred books and some are still in museum today.(1)Woodblock printing was probably invented ______.A.between the 4th century and the 7th centuryB.in the year of 868 ADC.in the 1lth centuryD.in the 13th century(2)Woodblock printing took long time, because ______.A.every page needed a new woodblockB.there were too many letters in one pageC.there were two colours in one pageD.there werent enough people to make wood-blocks(3)We should have ______ if we had lived in the 12th century.A.read books with red and black lettersB.read books of physicsC.read printed books in a European countryD.read printed books in many places of China(4)A(n) ______ person printed the first printed English book.A.ItalianB.GermanC.BritishD.Chinese(5)What can we learn from the passage?A.Printed books first appeared in Europe.B.Johannes Gutenberg invented a printing machine.C.Caxton only printed one book in his life.D.The first printed book was English.3.A man made a nice talking machine. It could weigh people’s weight. The man wanted to try the machine before he could make a lot of machines. He put the machine into the waitingroom of a station. There were always lots of people in and out.The first one who used the machine was an Indian woman. She stood on the machine, the machine thought for a few seconds to decide which language to speak. “Good morning, Madam.” It said in Indian. “Your weight is 72 kilograms. That’s three kilograms more. If you eat more fruit and vegetables, you will be soon all right. Please have a nice day.”The second one to use the machine was a Chinese girl. She stood on the machine and waited to hear her weight. “Good morning, Miss.” The machine said in Chinese. “Your weight is 45 kilograms. It’s all right for your age.

八年级学期期末英语试卷分类汇编阅读表达盐都区Building the pyramidsBecause the pyramids were huge, it took a lot of time and work to build them. Many engineers, architects, masons and artists were employed over many years to build each one.Thousands of labourers also worked on the pyramids each year.The labourers were mostly local farmers who gave up a few months of their time each year to help out.The First StepThe first step in building a pyramid was to pick a site. Then architects and engineers worked together to design the pyramid and make sure that it would be strong and safe.Not all pyramids were the same. Some were taller than the others. Some had different angles because their bases were larger than others.All of them were constructed differently inside, too. Many were made up of stone only, while some were filled with a mix of stone, mud bricks, and even sand.Cutting the StoneBuilding work began when the pyramid was designed. There was a lot of stone in Egypt, and builders of pyramids often found supplies of stone nearby that they could use.The Egyptians had no machinery or iron tools.Stone masons had to dig the stone from the ground and then cut it into large blocks using only copper and stone hand tools.(改编于《新理念》八年级第一册) 回答下列问题,每题答案不超过5个词。
