Reading encourages you to think and imagine, think out of the box and imagine the impossible.In the past, people just read books, only books. Today, we have books online, which makes reading easy. The web, our new storehouse of information, is just a click away. But this in no way has stolen the magic of reading books, the sound of their pages fluttering(翻页)and the smells of…You can lie in bed with a book, but with a computer you possibly can't. No matter how you read, reading is important.Remember those bedtime stories? We read fun facts about animals, plants and the universe. We ask "why" and "how". In books, we find the answers. Children who are introduced to reading at an early age seem to have a better understanding of phonics(语音学). They master language skills easily, have a richer vocabulary and have greater reading abilities. Children, who grow up reading good books, mostly stand out. The way they think and act is very different from those who have never been introduced to reading. Reading not only adds to their knowledge but also shape their personalities.The more you read, the more creative you will become. Reading dev elops vocabulary, improves language skills and sharpens(使敏捷)your problem-solving abilities. Reading gives you knowledge and make you more confident. The more you read about others' life experiences, the better decision-maker you will become.Reading about the importance of reading can lead you to read more, and more, and more.

When Should Children Start Reading?DThe Big Lottery is giving money to groups of teenagers between 14 and 19 who want to become active citizens. The teenagers who would like to help make the area you live in better, cleaner, safer and more friendly can actually get money for improving your local community (社区).We have $ 80,000 to give away. We are looking for young people to take part in schemes(规划) and projects near to where they live.Here are a few easy things you could do to get started.Meeting the neighbors: Everybody needs good neighbors. Knock on people’s door and find out what they would like improving in your area. Set a date for a meeting and then make some plans together. If you don’t want to go round to their houses, then you could always put a note through their doors.Neighborhood watch: Neighborhood watch schemes are very popular in the UK. If you go away on holiday and leave your house, it’s very nice to know that a neighbor is keeping an eye on it. It’s a good way to make the area you live in safer. You could set one up easily and quickly.(Paragraph 4)Lending a hand: There are often elderly people living in the neighborhood who may not be able to do the things that you can. Offer to do their shopping once a week, look after their garden for them or maybe walk their dog.(Paragraph 5)No littering: Nobody likes picking up other people’s rubbis h, but a clean street can make all the difference. Take it in turns to go out once or twice a week and see what you can find. Younever know, one day you might find something valuable.Recycling: Nearly two-thirds of your rubbish can be recycled. Some are as already provide places to people to recycle bottles, tins, plastic and paper. Find out if this is done in your neighborhood. If it’s not, do something about it.So go on … Just tell us what kind of project you want to join i n. Then we’ll send you more details. Take positive action and help make your neighborhood a better place to live in.62.

Answer these questions. What writers do you like? What are your interests? See if the library has computers. If it does ,you can use it to find a certain book by a certain writer, or keywords of your interests. If you like a certain book, search the book up and read its summary(概要).That will help you decide if the book is right for you.Search your house next. Often good books are quietly collecting dust(灰尘) in your own house. Maybe you forget about one. Probably, you will find some books that you can read,and they won’t even cost you any money.Then, ask someone to recommend a good book. You can ask your older brothers or sisters, your mom, your dad, your best friend, or even your English teacher. They have something in common with you and can often make excellent book recommendations. You should ask people that like the same type of books, so that you can get books that match your need.Join a book club , please. It helps you know who else likes the same books as you, and you can read books that other members have read and have a good discussion about them.Finally, read the first part of each book. If that holds your attention(注意) , read a few more pages. If it still holds your attention, then it’s probably a book for you. If you have many books, this can take m uch time to choose. Keep doing this until you have a few good books.七、缺词填空(共10空;每空1分,计10分) When you have dinner, you follow table manners. When you have a 1 86 , you obey the rules in the classroom.

2020-2021学年牛津译林版八年级英语下期中复习--任务型阅读+首字母填空综合练习(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.

S 6 Zhuang Zedong, three times world champion, came up to Cowan. “What are you doing?” said the other Chineseplayers. “Don’t talk to him! Don’t make t 7 !” Zedong gave Cowan a silk scarf. “I give you this to s 8 the friendship of the Chinese people to the American people,” he said through a translator. Cowan wanted to give something b 9 , but he didn’t have anything with him.Then the bus arrived at the hotel.

The number of teen Internet users in China is (1) g bigger, up to 253 million. The number shows a great increase(增长) in Internet users in China over the last (2) f years, especially among teenagers. And China becomes a large market for Internet (3 b.A new survey (调查) shows that Chinese teens show (4) i_______ in online activities. They seem not to know that (5)s too much time before a computer screen(显示屏) is bad for their health. According to the survey, 42.6% of teens have built their (6) o web blogs. More than half enjoy (7) c online with friends and 10.6% of teens play Internet games. It is a (8) p that only 6% use the Internet to get information for their learning projects! Also, the survey finds that the teens have different favourite (9) p to use the Internet. For teens in towns, 35% choose Internet bars as a mai n place to go online. For those living in large cities, 76% use home computers.Too much time online certainly (10) l to problems for their young life. Should teens think more about what role (角色) a computer plays?(九)Do you want to be successful in everything you do? If so, then how ? Here is an example.There was a farmer who grew corn(玉米) all his life. Each year he took his corn to the market.Then each time his corn was chosen as the b 1 and won the first prize.One year a newspaper reporter i2him and learned something surprising about how he grew it. The farmer o3his seed(种子) corn to his neighbors."How can you share your best seed corn with your neighbors?" the reporter asked. "You know they are taking part in the competition with you each year. ""Why, sir," said the farmer, "didn't you know? The wind picks up pollen (花粉)from the corn and moves it quickly from field to field. If my neighbors grow b 4 corn , cross-pollination ( 异花传粉) will be not good for my corn. S 5 if I want to grow good corn, I must help my neighbors to grow good corn. "The farmer knows much about the connection of life. His corn cannot improve I 6 his neighbors’ corn cannot improve.As a great man says, "We make a living by w 7 we get ; we make a life by what we give to others. " We can't live w 8 food, clothes, and many other things.H 9 , a meaningful life is not decided by how much we can get, but by how much we can give others. Giving, instead of taking, makes us different from other animals. So those who choose to live well must help others to live well, and those who choose to be happy must help others to find h 10 in their life.首字母填空(一)1 sales2 rising3 Another4 experience5 completed6 If7 between8 easily9 refuse 10 pick(二)1. won2. lesson3. happy4. when/whenever5. hurt6. led7. bit8. leader9.

Five years ago, when he was nineteen, he finished middle school. He didn't like any subjects except playing when he was at school. Of course he learned nothing and the bosses wouldn't use a man like him. He has to stay at home, but doesn't do any housework, only watches TV or lies on bed. It makes his parents angry. They want him to study something, he always think it difficult and doesn't listen to them.One day Robert was walking near a bookshop while some young men were talking about the writers. He heard the publishing house pays the writers a lot. He became interested in it. As soon as he got home, he began to write. But he couldn't write anything. At last he bought a book and copied a story. Then he posted it to the publishing house. He waited for nearly half a year, but didn't get any answers. He had to ask an editor on the telephone,"Have you read my story yet, sir?" "Yes," said the editor, "I had read it before you were born!"1. ________, so he learned nothing at school.A.

Many theories have been put forward to explain the popularity of jogging. The truth is that jogging is a cheap, quick and efficient way to achieve physical fitness.The most useful sort of exercise is exercise that develops the heart, lungs, and circulatory (循环)systems. If these systems are fit, the body is ready for almost any sport and for almost any sudden demand made by work or emergencies. Running trains your heart and lungs to deliver oxygen more efficiently to all parts of your body. It is worth noticing that this sort of exercise is the only kind that can reduce heart disease, the number one cause of death in America.The only equipment that is needed is a good pair of shoes. Physicians advise beginning joggers not to run in tennis or gym shoes. A good running shoe will give the knee and ankle(脚踝)more stability(稳定性). Wearing good shoes will prevent the foot, ankle and knee injures and will also enable the wearer to run on different surfaces.No other special equipment is needed; you can jog in any clothing you want, even in your street clothes. Many joggers wear expensive, flashy warm–up suits, but many people just wear a simple T-shirt or jog in last year’s clothes. In cold weather, several layers(层) of clothing are better than one heavy sweater or coat. If joggers are wearing several layers of clothing, they can add or take off layers as conditions change.It takes surprisingly little time to develop the ability to run. The American Jogging Association has a twelve–week program designed to move from a fifteen–minute walk (which almost anyone in reasonable health can manage) to a thirty-minute run. A measure of common sense, a physical examination, and a planned schedule are all it takes.5. The main purpose of this passage is to .A. discuss jogging as a physical fitnessB. describe the type of clothing needed for joggingC. provide scientific evidence of the benefits of joggingD. make some shoes better for jogging6. Which of the following is the only special equipment that joggers need?A. Good shoes.B. Street clothes.C. Expensive suits.D. Warm-up trousers.7. The most useful kind of exercise is exercise that .A. trains the body for weight liftingB. enables a person to run ahead with great powerC. is both beneficial and inexpensiveD. develops the heart, lungs, and circulatory systems8. We can conclude from this passage that .A. because of jogging, heart disease is no longer an American problemB. jogging can be harmful if the runner is not properly preparedC. warm–up suits are better than T-shirts for joggingD. jogging is bad for your heart and lungs四.词汇运用:1.Many new __________(工厂) have been set up recently.2.

NatCThe most awful words in the English language are, "Our computer is down." You hear it more and more when you are on business. The other day I was at the airport waiting for a ticket to Washington and the girl in the ticket office said, "I'm sorry, I can't sell you a ticket. Our computer is down.""If your computer is down, just write me out a ticket.""I can't write you out a ticket. The computer is the only one allowed to do so."I looked down on the computer and every passenger was just standing there drinking coffee and looking at the black screen. Then I asked her, "What do all you people do?""We give the computer the information about your trip, and then it tells us whether you can fly with us or not.""So when it goes down, you go down with it.""That's good, sir.""How long will the computer be down?" I wanted to know."I have no idea. Sometimes it's down for 10 minutes, sometimes for two hours. There's no way we can find out without asking the computer, and since it's down it won't answer us."After the girl told me they had no backup (备用) computer, I said. "Let's forget the computer.What about your planes? They're still flying, aren't they?""I couldn't tell without asking the computer.""Maybe I could just go to the gate and ask the pilot if he's flying to Washington," I suggested."I wouldn't know what gate to send you to. Even if the pilot was going to Washington, he couldn't take you if you didn't have a ticket.""Is there any other airline(航空公司) flying to Washington within the next few hours?""I wouldn't know," she said, pointing at the dark screen. "Only 'IT' knows. 'It' can't tell me."By this time there were quite a few people standing in lines. The word soon spread to other travelers that the computer was down. Some people went white, some people started to cry and still others kicked their luggage (行李).35. The best title for the article is _____.A. The Most Awful WordsB. When the Computer Is DownC.
