一、八年级英语上册阅读理解专项练习（含答案解析）

1．阅读理解

Many of you have watched a Superman cartoon or movie. But did you know he first appeared

in comics（连环漫画）? Do you want to learn more about popular comic books around the

world? Take a look!

Do you find reading boring? Have a read of some comic books. You will learn to love their

colorful pictures and simple language.

Comic books usually tell stories through cartoons. The US and Japan have some great comic

books. But they are not the same.

Their names are different. People say "comic books" in the US but "manga" in Japan.

American comics are often about superheroes—characters like Superman and Spider Man. So

action is a major part of American comics. But Japanese manga like to tell stories of ordinary

people. Luffy in One Piece（《海贼王》）is such an example.

American comics make people excited with super powers, while Japanese manga comfort（安慰）people with moving stories. Natsume's Book of Friends is about a teenage boy. He can see

spirits（精灵）. He is confused （困惑的）at first but later he makes friends with spirits.

you are not interested in these two kinds, why not try some from China? Xia Da, 32, is a great

comic book artist from China. Some of her comics are about school life. Others show the beauty

of Chinese culture.

2．阅读理解

Is it difficult for you to get up in the morning? Hiroyuki's bed will solve your problem! Here is

how it works.

The bed is connected to an alarm clock. First, the alarm clock rings. You have a few minutes to

wake up. Next, a tape recorder in the bed plays soft music. The tape recorder in Hiroyuki's bed

plays a recording of his girlfriend. She whispers

in a sweet voice, “Wake up, darling, please.” A

few minutes

later, Hiroyuki hears

a recording of his boss. His boss shouts, “Get up

at once, or

you'll be late!”

If you don't get up after the second recording, a mechanical “foot” in the bed will kick you on

the head. The bed waits a few more minutes. What! You're still in bed! Slowly the top of the bed

rises higher and higher. The foot of the bed goes lower and lower. Finally you slide off the bed

and onto the floor. You are out of bed and awake!

Hiroyuki's bed is not in stores. There is only one bed－the bed Hiroyuki made for a contest.

Maybe someday a company will make Hiroyuki's bed and sell it in stores. Maybe people will buy

millions of beds. Then Hiroyuki will be rich. If the bed makes Hiroyuki rich, he won't need to go to

work and he won't need to get up early!
