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.。

This kind of friend knows all of your deepest and darkest secrets, but still loves you all the same.A Friendly NeighborThese days, a lot of people don’t know their own neighbours. It’s a s hame, because some neighbors can be the most helpful people. If you forget to lock the front door when you are on holiday, you can call your neighbors to lock it for you. So it’s wonderful to have nice and helpful neighbors.A WorkmateYou’ll find it much easier to chat with someone than eating lunch along every day. Your workmate doesn’t have to be your best friend. If you two get along with each other, you can always start going out with them outside of the office.A Friend from a Different CultureIf everyone has a friend from a different culture, the world would be much better.

It may be because you haven’t practiced remembering.Remembering is a useful way to help us learn. Some of us remember best by listening; others by re-reading; and others learn best by using pictures and diagrams(图表). Schools try many of these different ways to help students “download” new information.But a recent study from Purdue University, US, says that successful learning means being able to recall information at any moment.“Our view is that learning is not about studying or getting knowledge ‘in memory’,” said Jeffrey Karpicke, the lead researcher. “Learning is about ret rieving(寻回, 检索). So it is important to make retrieval practice an important part of the learning process.The research studied two groups of students. Both groups learned something from a text. One group made diagrams about the text. This method(方法) is called concept mapping. The other group put the text away after learning it and tried recalling the concepts from memory.Then, both groups were tested(被测试) on the information they had learned. Both groups scored well at recalling the learned information. However, when they were asked to return one week later, the group who made diagrams scored better than the group who did not use concept mapping. So by drawing concept maps, we are able to recall information far better, which will help us to study.Our mind, just like our body, has to practice activities to become good at them.66. Which of the following ways of remembering is NOT mentioned(提及) in Paragraph 2?A. Listening.B. Re-reading.C. Speaking.D. Using pictures and diagrams.67. According to Jeffrey Karpicke, learning is about _______.A. studying knowledge from memoryB. getting and recalling knowledgeC. practicing drawing photos and mapsD. getting knowledge from memory68. What does the underlined part “concept mapping” in Paragraph 5 mean in Chinese?A. 心电图B. 概念图C. 规划图D. 线路图69. When both groups were tested on the information after one week, _______.A. they both scored wellB. the group that didn’t use concept mapping scored betterC. neither of the groups scored wellD. the group using concept mapping scored better70. What can we tell from the story?A. Our minds need to practice to remember things.B. It’s impossible to remember everything we’ve learned.C. How to get knowledge by concept mapping.D. Concept mapping is the only way to learn.答案：56-60 DABCD 61-65 BDCAC 66-70 CBBDA四、阅读理解阅读下列短文，根据短文内容选择最佳答案（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）AA huge fire swept through the top of the famous Notre-Dame de Paris(巴黎圣母院) on Monday evening, April 15, 2019, sending flames and huge clouds of grey smoke into the sky.Notre-Dame de Paris is one of the most famous buildings in the world.
