人教版八年级英语上册阅读理解12篇(含答案解析)

人教版八年级英语上册阅读理解12篇(一)Many animals migrate-they move over long ways, often at the same time and to the same place each year. They move to places where the weather is warmer, where there is more food and water, or where their young will be safer. Here are three amazing examples of migration: One of the largest animal migrations happens on the Serengeti plains(塞伦盖蒂平原) in Africa. More than one million wildebeest(角马) migrate in a big group. As the seasons change, they follow the rain, looking for better grass to eat and water to drink. They stay in one place while the grass and water are good, and then they move on. They return to the same places each year. Thousands of zebras and other animals travel with the wildebeest.Out of all migrating animals, Arctic terns(北极燕鸥) travel the longest way. These seabirds lay their eggs and raise their young in summer in the north of Europe, Asia and North America. Each year around August, they fly south over the oceans. They spend about five months near Antarctica, while it is warmer there. Then after the southern summer ends, they fly north again. Arctic terns travel more than 70.000 kilometers in a year.Salmon(蛙鱼) live most of their lives in the ocean. But when it’s time for them to lay their eggs, they return to the rivers where they were born. They move up rivers and streams to find the right place. Scientists think that the fish remember the special smell of their river, and this is how they find their way. Salmon can swim strongly up hills, and will jump high to get over waterfalls.
