牛津译林版八年级上册英语期中复习：任务型阅读练习题精选(含答案)

牛津译林版八年级上册英语期中复习：任务型阅读练习题精选We all know that everyone has his own dream as well as his own future. But do you know what future really is? I have to say that future is now. That is to say we must treasure (珍惜) every minute now. If we want to have a bright future, we should know how important time is and use it well.There is an old English saying: “Gain time, gain life.”Then what’s time? Time is something that we can’t see or touch, but we can feel it passing by. Time is always with us. When we are at table, time passes; when we play, time goes by unnoticeably. We always say “Time is money”, but time is even more precious (珍贵的) than money, because when money is spent, we can earn it back. But if time is gone, it will never return (回来). So, some of us even say time is priceless.We should always remember: future is now. For us students, we should work hard in order to make our own future better. We should make the best use of every hour and be the master of today. We should do what we can to do everything as well as possible. And never put off what we can do today till tomorrow.As we all know, “Time and tide wait for no man.”If you waste today, you will regret (后悔) tomorrow. So from now on, work hard. Tomorrow will be better, and your future will be brighter. Remember: “No pains, no gains.”Today’s hard work is the cause(原因) of tomorrow’s harvest.Title: Future and 11. ___Today / Present___2. __useful_3. __Time___4. __come___5. __best__DIY means making or creating things on your own, with your own hands. It may take much time, but some people, now known as DIYers —do-it-yourselfers, enjoy doing it very much. They are interested in it because it is fun. And they also say it helps them save money, too. What’s more, they think it is a good way to protect the environment. It is a kind of green life. In fact, DIY is not a modern thing in China. Many people remember when it was once a way of life in the past. During the 1960s and 1970s, when there were not enough living things for people to live on, they had to use their own hands to do many things. If you wanted something, you had to do it yourself, and if you needed something, you made it yourself.Times have changed and DIY also has different meanings.。

牛津译林版8A英语期中专题练习—阅读表达（1）Dear Wang FangThank you for your letter. You wrote to ask me about American social customs(风俗) in their dinner party. You are asking the right person. I once lived in America for five years. Now I’ll tell you something about it.It’s a good idea to bring a small present when you go to a dinner party. Flowers are always nice, or you may bring a bottle of wine if you know that your friends drink it.You should arrive(到达) on time or five to minutes late. Don’t get there early. If you’re going to be more than fifteen minutes late, you should call before.Try to be free at the dinner table. If you don’t know about choosing(选择) the right fork or knife, just watch the other people, and follow them. If you still have no idea of what to do, ask the person beside you .If you like the food, say so. Of course, you’ll thank them for the meal and for their kindness. It’s also a good idea to send a card to thank them the day after.Rose1.Who wants to know about American social custom in the dinner party?2.What presents are always nice when you go to a dinner party?3. If you’re going to be more than fifteen minutes late, what should you do ?4.How long did Rose once live in the USA?5. What can you do to thank someone for the meal and the kindness?（2）A clever rabbitOne hot afternoon, Miss Rabbit goes out for food. She finds a big pumpkin in the field. “How big it is! I’ll carry it home. But the pumpkin is too heavy. What can I do?” The rabbit is sitting on the road.Just then, Mr. Panda comes over on his bike. He says, “Let’s pu t the pumpkin on my bike and take it to your home.” “No, thanks,” says the rabbit. Miss Rabbit looks at the wheels (轮子) of the bike and has a good idea.

Sledding gives you good exercise and is lots of fun!A sled looks like a boat. It can move easily over snow or ice. Early sleds were made of wood. Now some better sleds are made of glass.Sleds can be pulled（被拉）by animals. In some very cold parts of the world, people make animals like dogs, horses, and reindeer (驯鹿) pull(拉) goods(货物) or people in sleds.People also sled for sports and fun. Driving a sled does not need much skill. The driver gives a kick(踢) in the snow to start the sled. He or she can also ask someone else for help. In a sled, there can be one person(人) or several(几个).Usually, you have to lie on your back, feet first in a sled. As you travel, you move your body and feet to keep it in the right direction (方向).There is a special sled called the skeleton sled (骨架雪橇). It’s very different.On a skeleton, you lie on your stomach and drive the sled in a head-first way. It is very fast! Many people are afraid to ride it.

They tell me stories of every country in the world.(1)They give us all kinds of knowledge.Life is short. One can’t know and see everything in the world. With the help of books, one is able to know what happened thousands of years ago and what is happening in every part of the world now. (2)Books give us knowledge pleasure(乐趣). Reading good books is the best way of spending our free time. And many beautiful stories for children are interesting and full of wisdom(智慧).All the great men love books.

The centre of a hurricane is called the eye.While most of a hurricane has dangerously strong winds,the eye is actually(事实上)a calm area in the storm.When the eye of a hurricane passes over land,people might think that it’s over,but before long the wind and rain increase again as the second part of the hurricane moves through.Hurricane Safety TipsThere is no way to stop a hurricane or make it change direction,so if you ever find yourselfin the path of a hurricane,be sure to remember the following safety tips.·Be sure you have a radio,batteries,fresh drinking water,and enough food.·Tell neighbours,friends,and family members your emergency plans.Tell them where you’ll go if you need to leave your home.·If you live near the ocean,leave your home and travel to a safe place.You could stay with a friend or a family member,in a hotel/motel,or in an emergency shelter area.·Stay inside during the storm.You could be seriously injured(受伤)if you go outside.HurricanesCharacteristics Hurricane Season usually1about6months in the Atlantic Ocean and6.5 months in the Pacific Ocean.Devastating waves,wind,and rain are usually the2of hurricanes.Categories Hurricanes have been3into five categories by scientists,based on wind speeds.A Category5hurricane can destroy all the4along the shorelines.5When a hurricane comes together with heavy rainfall,a terrible6may happen.The eye is the7of a hurricane.Soon after it passes,the wind and rain increase again.Safety Tips It’s8to stop a hurricane or change its direction.Don’t9the safety tips if you find yourself in the path of a hurricane.Stay inside during the storm,10you could be seriously injured.1. 2. 3. 4. 5.6.7.8.9.10.Everyone needs friends.We all like to feel close to someone.It is nice to have a friend to talk, laugh and do things with.Certainly,we need to be alone sometimes.We don’t always want people around.But we would feel lonely if we never had a friend.Sometimes friends don’t make each other happy.That doesn’t mean that they don’t like each other any more.Most of the time,they will make up and go on being friends.Sometimes friends move away.Then we feel very sad.If we miss them very much,we can call them or write to them.Maybe,we can never see them again.However,we can make new friends.It is surprising to find out how much we like new people when we get to know them, There is more good news for people who have friends.They live longer than people who don’t.Why?It could be that they are much happier.Being happy helps you to stay well.We will feel happy1a friend.When friends make each other2,you will make up or go on being friends.

牛津译林版8A英语期中专题练习—任务型阅读

牛津译林版8A英语期中专题练习—任务型阅读学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、填空Every weekend in Britain, DIY shops and garden centres are always full of people. A large number of people spend their weekends doing improvements (改进)to their homes instead of having a rest.DIY projects are very popular and there are lots of TV programmes which show people how they can improve their homes.Some people like decorating better – putting up wall- paper and painting walls, also there are many other DIY projects that people decide to take on, from changing the new floor to making a new shower. They are not so difficult for them.Unluckily, some people bite off more than they can chew (不自量力), and try to take on jobs which always go wrong in the end. For exa mple, the shops often tell people that it’s not safe(安全的) for a person to do anything electrical (电的). However, many people don’t care about this advice and put themselves in danger.A blog(博客) is another way to say a “web log”. People write blogs about all kinds of things, from news and events (大事) to hobbies and reviews (评论). Some people use them justas a simple record(记录) what they did. Every day.Blogging has become very popular, because more and more people use the Internet. New technologies(技术) have made keeping a blog an easy thing to do .,so millions of people now have their own blogs. They are usually free to set up and easy to update(更新). You can upload(上传)pictures onto a blog and link （链接）to other websites.(网址). To many people ,these feathers (特征) make blogs much more useful than traditional diaries.We are able to send texts , pictures and videos (录像) from our mobile phonesdirectly(直接地) onto the Web . New technologies like this are making blogging even easier ,people also think blogs are better than newspapers for finding out about news ,events and ideas .They like to use blogs because they can get information from everywhere .It looks like blogs are going to become one of the most important ways to find and share information in the near future.Title : Basic Knowledge of A Blog (博客的基本常识)Some people believe that people from the same country share similar (相似的) characteristics. This is why you might hear someone saying "She is typical(典型的) Australian" or "He is so French". Here are some examples.FrenchFrench people are romantic and outgoing. They have great love for life, food and wine.They are good at singing and dancing.ChineseChinese are friendly and hard-working people. They are polite because they are careful about "saving face" when they are with other people.AustraliansAustralians are happy people. They spend a lot of time outdoors. They enjoy a slower life. They laugh a lot but sometimes people think they are loud and rude.GermansGermans are often serious and careful. They are hard workers and do everything carefully. However, sometimes people say Germans have no sense of humour.All these national types can be true for some people, but very wrong for others. For example, you might meet a German who is a confident singer with a great sense of humour, or an Australian who is shy and quiet!Let me give you some useful ways to study. You may think you will never be a top student.Anyone can learn better if he or she wants. Here is how.Plan your time with careMake a list (清单) of the things that you have to do. After making the list, you should plan your time. First plan your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. Then decide a good regular (有规律的) time for studying. Don’t forget to leave some time for your hobbies.Find a good place to studyLook around the house for a good study area. It may be a desk, a corner of your room, free of everything but（除了）study things.Make good use of your time in classListen to everything the teacher says. Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says.Study regularlyWhen you get home from school, go over (复习) your notes. Going over the important language points will help you to prepare for the next class.Never give up if you don’t pass a testA test can show what you learn about a subject. It helps you remember things better. Don’t be too worried. Th e world won’t end if you don’t pass a test.How can you help yourself learn a new language, such as English? There are several ways to make learning English easier and more interesting.The first step is to believe that you can learn well. If you believe that you can learn well,you will learn well. Be patient. You don’t have to understand everything all at once. It is usual to make mistakes when you learn something new. We can learn from our mistakes.The second step is to practice your English. For example, practice speaking or making notes every day. You will be good at speaking or writing in English. After several weeks, you will see that your English is better. And you must practice speaking English when you have any time. You can practice with your classmates outside class.The third step is to keep a diary of your language learning. After each class, think about what you did. Did you answer a question correctly? Did you understand something the teacher talked about? Perhaps the lesson was difficult, but you tried to understand it. Write down what you learn in your diary.You must have confidence about learning English and believe that you can do it. It’s important to practice every day.Four ways to have a good school lifeYour schooldays should be some of the best and happiest days of your life. How can you get the most from them, and be sure you do not waste (浪费) this great chance to learn?Be active(积极的) at school . Don’t say things are difficult or boring. Take interest in school life and your school subjects. Join lots of activities. Put up your hands quickly in class. Go around the school with a big smile. If you are not working, you are wasting your time at school. Teachers cannot make everything enjoyable（令人愉快的）.Keep fit . If you don’t eat a good breakfast, you will be thinking ab out food in class. Ifyou go to bed late and don’t have enough sleep, you will be sleepy in class. Play enough sports every day in order to keep your body strong.Face the problem . Do not say you will do things tomorrow. If you get behind the class, it is very difficult to get back in front. You cannot finish the race if you rest all the time. Everyone fails some exams, loses some matches and has bad days. Don’t make small problems very big and important. Don’t forget to ask for help. You are young, and n o one thinks you must de everything quite well!Spend the weekends . Don’t waste time lying in bed on Saturday or Sunday morning. Go and play sports, get together with friends in the park to relax, or learn to play the piano. If you don’t want to go out, there are also a lot of things to do. You may read a book, practice English or help Mum with housework.Follow our advice, and have a happy school life!Good morning, boys and girl. Today I’ll talk about going online. We know that there are too many net bars around us. The Internet can make our lives interesting and enjoyable. Many of us like going online very much because we can learn how to use the computer. We canlearn English and read some newspapers and magazines to know more information around us. It can make us clever in playing computer games. Also we can send e-mails to our friends quickly. It can help us contact people from all over the world.But some students spend too much time in playing computer games and some stay in the net bars all day and all night. Some girls even get to have boyfriends or some boys get to have girlfriends online. They write too many letters to each other. It takes them too much time to chat online so they do worse in their lessons and they don’t study well any more. I think we mustn’t get online when it is time for us to study. We can do it in summer or winter holidays. I think we should get online with our teachers or parents. At the same time, if we have lots of free time, we can do some activities after class. We usually have activities from 4：50 to 5：50 in the afternoon . You can play basket ball or football. We also have some interest groups in school, such as drawing, singing and dancing. We can go to the English corner on Monday afternoon. We hope we can spend more time on our subjects or on such activities that we can learn a lot from and less time on the Internet.The tiger is the largest wild cat in the world. The big cat weighs about 363 kilograms and is about two meters long.Tigers wait until it is dark, and then they go out to find their food. When a tiger sees an animal, it moves very quietly, and then jumps on the animal to kill it. Sometimes it can takeseveral days for a tiger to finish eating its kill. The tiger eats until it has enough, then it covers the dead（死的）animal with leaves. Later when the tiger is hungry again, it comes back to eat some more.The tigers are different from others in the cat family. They like water and they often jump into rivers to swim.Some tigers live in very cold places in India and parts of South Asia.All tigers are in danger. People kill them to use their skins (皮) for clothes, and their bodies for medicine. In addition, there is also less and less land for tigers to live on. But now people know that tigers are in danger and are making plans to protect them.Title: the largest 41．catWhat is DIY? Why do many people like it?Yang Chen works for a computer company(公司) in Beijing. He enjoys his work, but it is not easy for him to relax after work. One day when he saw many toy dogs in a toy shop, he had an idea. “Why not make them myself? Then he began to ma ke model planes, model ships andsomething else. Soon he has great interest in it because it brings him lots of fun and makes life colourful. So what is DIY? Yes, it is making things on your own, with your own hands. It may take much time, but some people enjoy doing it very much. They enjoy it because it is fun. And they also say it helps them save money too. What’s more, they think it is a good way to protect the environment(环境). It is a kind of green life.In fact, DIY is not a modern thing in China. Many people remember when it was once a way of life in the past. During the 1960s and the 1970s, when there were not enough living things for people to live on, they had to use their own hands to do many things. If you wanted something you had to do it yourself, and if you needed something, you made it yourself.Times have changed and DIY also has different meanings.根据短文内容，完成下列表格.Good morning, boys and girls.
