AIn the past, working people in Britain only had holidays on “holy” (religious) days: Sundays, Christmas and Easter. Now most people have about four weeks of holiday time every year plus public (公共的) holidays (also called “bank holidays”).When?Most British workers take a two-week holiday in July or August. School children are on holiday from the end of July to the start of September. Taking a second holiday break in winter or spring is also becoming more popular in the UK.Where?The most popular holiday destinations for Brits include Spain, France, Greece and the US. Lots of people buy a package holiday that includes flights and a hotel or an apartment. Cheap overseas flights mean that many British people are able to spend two weeks a year vacationing abroad. Flights and package holidays are much cheaper during school terms and the British government is worried that some young people are skipping school to go on holiday. Parents who take their child on vacation during term time must now pay a fine.British people also like to go on holiday in the UK. They might go to England, Northern Ireland, Scotland or Wales, In Cornwall (康沃尔), for example, there is an environmental project called the Eden Project. You can see plants from all over the world there.Independent (独立的) holidaysSome teenagers want to spend their holidays doing something without their family. A language exchange is one way to become more ind ependent and improve one’s language skills. A British teenager might spend a week or two in a foreign country, staying with a family who has a son ordaughter of the same age and practicing the local language. Later, the foreign teenager might visit the UK to practice their English with a British family.()1.When did British people have holidays in the past?a. Christmas.b. Saturdays.c. Easter.d.

I turned around and found a little lady with a warm smile. I said heartily:” Of course﹗”“Why are you in college at such an age?” I asked.She joked, “I’m here to meet a rich husband, get married, have children, and then travel around.”“No seriously,” I asked.“I always dreamed of having a college education and now I’ getting one!” she told me.Over the year, Rose became an icon(偶像) and she easily made friends. She loved to dress up and she enjoyed the attention of the others. At the end of the term we invited Rose to ou r football party. I’llnever forget what she said.“We do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because we stop playing. Here are the secrets to stay young. You have to laugh and find humor every day. You’ve got to have a dream. When you lose your dreams, you die! There's a huge difference between growing old and growing up. Anybody can grow older. That doesn't take any talent or ability. But growing up requires finding the opportunity in change. Have no regrets.”One week after graduation that year, Rose died peacefully in her sleep. She taught us by example that it's never too late to be all you can possibly be.( )6.What’s the relationship between the writer and Rose?A.They are good friends.

With drawings and simple words, the step-by-step guide explains how to send messages, take pictures and make video calls. Zhang made the guide for his parents. “My parents are getting old. They need an easy way to learn how to use new techn ology.” He said.Zhang’s experience is common nowadays. Worldwide, 40 percent of parents learn about new technologies, including computers, mobile Internet and social media, from their children, according to a study from the International Communication Association in 2014.Parents used to teach their kids about almost everything. Now for the first time, the teachers become the students, and the students turn into the teachers.The change of roles comes from the rapid development of society and technology, says Zhou Xiaohong, a sociology professor from Nanjing University. Zhou said the Internet and other forms of media give children ways to get information besides from asking older generations(长辈). Therefore, in the age of information, it’s possible that chil dren know more than their parents do.According to the China Internet Network Information Center(CINIC), 56.7 percent of Internet users and 67.2 percent of social media users in China are under the age of 30. The younger generation usually acts as alink between their family and the new environment. But when they teach their parents new technologies, parents can connect to the new world by themselves, noted Zhou.In Zhang Ming’s eyes, teaching his parents about WeChat brings him closer to his parents. “People can communicate more by using new technology. Why should we keep our parents out?” said Zhang.( )11.According to the passage, Zhang’s parents can’t_______with the “WeChat guide”.A.make video calls B.send messagesC.grab the red envelopes D.take pictures( )12.Why does children know more than their parents do nowadays?A.Because parents teach the children about almost everything.B.Because children can ask more older generations for help.C.Because parents are getting old.D.Because children can get more information by using new technoloies.( )13.What does the underlined word “link” in paragraph 5 mean?A.teacher B.connection C.treasure D.conversation( )14.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A.Zhang Mi ng’s “We Chat guide” is made up of drawings and simple words.B.40% of parents lean about new technologies from their children all over the world on 2014.C.56.7% of social media users in China are under 30 according to the CINIC.D.Zhang Ming thinks that we should encourage our parents to use more new technolohies. ( )15.What’s the best title of the passage?A.Ways of using new technology B.Kids can also teach parentsC.How parents connect to the world D.Ways to get informationDWant to know what we students can do to make our city a better place to live in?

Usually it takes a long time, perhaps half a day, for passengers to stay in the plan. So airlines(航空公司)offer passengers food. But it is common that they feel bad about food taste. Do you agree?To solve this problem, airlines try hard to improve their food. They would like to do so because they don’t want to lose customers.However, according to scientific research, part of the reason why plane food tastes bad is that at high altitude(海拔)we can not taste things as well as we do on the ground. Also scientists have found that our noses become very dry even before a plane takes off. As the plane moves up, the change in air pressure(气压)reduces one third of the sensibility(感觉)of our taste buds. So ourtaste buds become senseless. The sad face, however, is that our noses don’t know it.All of these help explain why food on the plane tastes so bad. They also help explain why airlines choose to offer passengers salty and spicy(辛辣的)food. Without doing so, the food would be tasteless.Now there are many researches on this. According to one of them, some volunteers are asked to lie with their feet higher than their heads for weeks. And scientists write down their feelings about food taste.Though sci entists try their best, it is not as easy as they thought. Because they can’t deal with the special environment successfully, such as the change in air pressure, making food taste good is still hard for them.( )26.In Paragraph 2, “this problem” means ______.A.passengers stay long in the plane B.food on the plane tastes badC.passengers have no food to eat D.food on the plane is expensive( )27.What do airlines do to solve this problem?A.Get more customers. B.Offer more food.C.Improve their food. D.Reduce the ticket price.( )28.As the plane moves up, the change in air pressure reduces of the sensibility of our taste buds.A.half B.one third C.one fourth D.one fifth( )29.Why do scientists feel it hard to made food on the plane taste good?A.The volunteers don’t know about food taste.B.The volunteers don’t understand them.C.They can’t find enough volunteers.D.They can’t deal with the special environment successfully.( )30.What is the best title of the passage?A.Taste of Airplane Food B.Airplane TravelC.Scientific Research on Noses D.The Change in Air PressureGEvery country has its own way of cooking. American people have their own way of cooking, don't they? Most people in the United States like fast food, but if you think that American people don't like cooking, you are wrong. It's true that most Americans eat fast food for their breakfast and lunch, but they also think cooking is interesting. Parents see the importance of teaching their children how to cook, and most Americans say that home-cooked meals are the best.Americans have their own way of cooking. For example, baking is the most popular way of cooking in America. Most American families have ovens. American cooks pay attention to (注意) the balance of food.

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. ( )1.The word “migrate” means ________ in the first paragraph.A.移民B.迁徙B.C.搬家D.移动( )2.Animals migrate because ________.A.they need warmer weather B.they need foodC.they need good places to raise their young D.all of the above( )3.Arctic terns can travel ________ kilometers each year.A.5,000B.30,000C.over 70,000D.1 million( )4.Scientists think ________ helps salmon find their way as they migrate.A.the smell of the river B.the sound of the riverC.the warmth of the river D.the amount of water in the river答案详解本文介绍了角马、北极燕鸥和蛙鱼三个令人吃惊的迁徙例子。

Chen showed that it was quite useful to know how to do CPR.According to medical experts, there is a "golden period(黄金期)"—the first 4 minutes of a heart problem.

All that one needs to do is how to watch and decide if a person is unconscious (失去知觉的), where to press on the patient's chest, and how to blow air through the mouth and into the lungs(肺).A 2017 study showed that 65 percent of Americans had received CPR training. In Switzerland, all people are asked to be trained in first aid, including CPR: tn Germany, everyone must be trained before getting their driver's license, which means about 80 percent of the country has received first-aid training.

The only thing she thought valuable(有价值的) was her hair. She sold it, without thinking twice, for 20 dollars. She was going from one shop to another to find a gift for Jim. She saw a gold watch chain (链条) It was so perfect for his watch! She paid for it unhesitatingly and hurried home with the chain and 87 cents.At seven before the dinner, Jim stepped in and he was not smiling. He looked strangely at Della and said slowly,” You cut off your hair?”"Yes. I sold it for the gift so don’t be sad." Della answered "Oh, my dear, I also bought a gift for you,”Jim took out a paper bag from his coat. "If you open that, you may know how I felt when I came in.”White fingers opened the bag And then a cry of joy. And then a change to tears. For there lay The Comb---the combs that Della had seen in a shop window and loved for a long time.Della took out the gift for Jim. However, Jim smiled and said, "Let's put our Christmas gifts away and keep them a while. They are too nice to use now. I will buy my watch back someday.

Here is the reason: seabirds mainly live on fish. When there are fish in the nets, seabirds can smell fish from far away and fly to the nets to catch fish. As a result, they get caught in the nets and then die. These fishing nets kill at least 400,000 seabirds every year. Some seabirds are in great danger now.Scientists know that many seabirds don’t like to see other animals’ eyes. If they do, they will fly away. So they came up with an idea. They designed a floating buoy(浮标) with big eyes and made the eyes large enough so that all seabirds could see the eyes. Also, scientists made the eyes keep moving in the water, so birds coming from different places could see them easily and then flew away. Scientists tested the buoys in the water for 250 hours. The result showed that the eyes made 20%-30% of ducks leave, and some seabirds visited the water less even three weeks after scientists took away the buoys.The test showed success and hope, but scientists found that the eyes didn’t work for all kinds of seabirds. Some were not afraid of the eyes in the first place, and some came back again to fish finally. Scientists hope that they will build better eyes. There is a long way to go to save seabirds, but scientists will keep moving forward.()1. The first paragraph mainly talks about _______.A. how fishermen fishB. how seabirds get fishC. why seabirds die in fishing nets()2.

Why do we save seabirds?C. Can big eyes save seabirds?(五)What does taking the train mean to you? Perhaps it’s just a way of getting to your destination(目的地). In fact, the train itself can be part of the fun.On March 28, 2021, China’s first panda-themed tourist train left Chengdu in Sichuan for Zunyi in Guizhou. It soon became the talk of China with its special design and fun facilities(设施). The train is full of giant panda pictures. Attendants(乘务员) carry panda toys to move around and passengers(乘客) can try panda-shaped food, as well as Sichuan snacks. Some people call it a “mobile star hotel” because it has a bar, karaoke room, dance hall, and mahjong(麻将) room. Passengers can take showers and use its 5G network as well.Besides fun facilities, train travel appeals to people for other reasons. In the fast-paced times we live in, train travel is a good way to slow down. It gives you time and space to read, sleep, chat with friends, or simply do nothing but watch the changing scenery(风景) outside.Sheng Yawei, 26, once took the longest railway in the world — the Trans-Siberian(穿越西伯利亚的) Railway. Running from Moscow to Vladivostok, it takes six days. Sheng said, “It was like a time travel experience. Since the journey covers eight time zones(时区), I saw my watch go back suddenly.” He added, “The rivers, forests, mountains, and deserted countryside along the way made me feel peaceful.” Train travel is also filled with surprises. You might meet new people. Sheng met a Russian college student and they became friends. “I also met a cute boy who gave me melon seeds(瓜子). Though we didn’t understand each other’s language, it made me feel nice. Taking the train is very interesting. You don’t know who you’ll meet or what you’ll see. It’s a window to see the world,” he said.()1. On the panda-themed train, passengers can NOT _______.A. have Sichuan snacksB. have a dancing partyC. take photos with real giant pandas()2.

In Sheng Yawei’s opinion, _______ made his travel full of surprises.A. watching the deserted countryside along the wayB. making friends with foreignersC. understanding a different language()5. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. The panda-themed tourist train.B. Travel experiences.C. Interesting train travels.(六)The next day was also cold and grey. Nobody talked much during breakfast. Mrs March was pale (苍白的) and red. The girls tried to hide their tears.Then Mr Brooke arrived with the carriage(四轮马车) and it was time for Mrs March to leave.She kissed her daughters one by one and said, “Keep busy, my dears, and never lose hope!"“Yes, Mother.""Meg. look after your sisters. If you need help, ask Mr Frence. Jo,be patient and cheerful, and write to me often. Beth and Amy, help with the housework and be obedient (服从的)”“Yes. Mother I Don't worry!"Mrs March got into the carriage and opened the window.“Goodbye, my dears!" she called as it drove away. The girls waved their hands cheerfully until the carriage turned the corner.Then, with sad faces and heavy hearts, they went back inside.“The house seems very empty now," said Meg.“Our motto(座右铭)is“Hope and keep busy'," said Jo brightly. She was trying to forget how sad she was feeling. “So I'm going to go and see Aunt March. What about you,Meg?"“I'm going to teach the Kings' children," replied Meg.“And Amy and I are going to help Hannah with the housework," said Beth.“I think anxiety (焦虑) is very interesting," Amy said seriously. Her remark made her sisters laugh, and they all started to feel a little better.()1. When did the story happen?A. In the morning.B. In the afternoonC. In the evening.()2. How many daughters did Mrs March have?A. Three.B. Four.C. Five.()3. Who was going to help Hannah with the housework?A. Beth.B. Meg.C. Amy and Beth.()4. What does the underlined word remark mean in Chinese?A.话语B.表情C.态度()5. According to the story, we can know that_________.A. it was hot and sunny that dayB. the girls felt unhappy when their mother leftC. Mr Brooke worked for Mrs March and her family(七)Almost every Chinese person can recite(背诵)the two lines of the famous poem,"Every grain on the plate comes from hard work." But sadly, many of us don't actually get the real meaning of these lines: Don't waste food.A CCTV program reported that the food Chinese people throw away every year is enough to feed 200 million people for a year. Do we have too much food? Absolutely not.According to the UN World Food Program, there were 925 million hungry people around the world in 2011, especially in developing countries. Six million children die of hunger (饥饿)every year.Chinese people are well-known for being friendly and generous (大方的)。

They say more Americans need to take a nap—that is to rest for a short period in the middle of the day. They give people advice to sleep lightly before continuing with other activities. The experts say naps might improve health by reducing pressure.Some European and Latin American companies have supported the idea of napping for many years. They ask people to leave work, go home and have a nap before returning. In the United States, some companies let workers rest simply in their offices. They believe this can help workers make fewer mistakes and also increase the amount of work that a person can do.Sleep experts say it is likely that people make more mistakes at work than at other times. They say people should not carry out important tasks when they feel sleepy. And they say the best thing to do is to take a nap. About twenty minutes of rest is all you need. Experts say this provides extra energy and can increase your effects until the end of the day. But experts said that a nap should last no more than twenty to thirty minutes.

It is said that if you take care of your body, then you can surely be healthy. That is why our eyes should be given a lot of care. Natural eye care should be put in a number one place.There are several causes leading to poor eyesight like not enough food, genes (基因) and aging (老化). Televisions, computers and reading are also the causes of having poor eyesight. If you happen to work in front of the computer, it is best to take a break every once in a while.Something dirty can cause redness and they will make you feel uncomfortable. It is bad for your eyes too. If this happens, the best way is to clean your eyes by using cold water. You must also try your best to protect your eyes from harmful things. For example, sunglasses are not just for fashion but they can also serve as a great way to protect your eyesight from UVrays.Eating healthy foods will do good to your eyesight. Remember that vitamins A, C and E are good for eyes. Try to eat food groups that have these vitamins. And you should do eye exercises because exercise protects your eyesight too. If a person exercises regularly (定期地) and eats the right kind of food, his eyes will stay in good condition for a long time.All above are natural ways of eye care that help us keep healthy eyes. Being happy all the time can be helpful to a person’s eyesight, too.

She hardly gets angry with others and is always happy. So she is in good health. I think her reason for long life is drinking milk every day and trying to be happy,” said her granddaughter (孙女).Her doctor, Dr. Perls, said another reason for Ray’s long life is her genes (基因). She got them from her parents. He said, “These genes can keep you in good health and let you live longer. People can usually live to about 80 years old. Those with the right genes can live to more than 100 years. They also pass those genes to their children. So if a person’s parents live long, he or she will probably live long, too.” Dr. Perls also said, “You may not have those genes. But if you don’t smoke, don’t drink too much, and do exercise or do other things to relax, you still can live long.”1.

Dear editor,
My English teacher is very strict (严厉)with us. Several days ago, when we were in class, Tom asked me a question. But she thought we were speaking in class. She asked us to stand at the back of the classroom for a few minutes. This made me uncomfortable. After that, I feel nervous in her class, so I don’t like her class. However, I really want to learn English well. What should I do?
Yours
Mike Dear Mike,
I am sorry you are having difficulty with your English class. Every teacher wants his or her students to study hard. So I think you should have a talk with your English teacher and tell her what you were doing with Tom that day. If she knows your worries, maybe she will help you with your English. And she will be pleased to hear you want to learn English well. I believe when students are not trying as hard as they can, a teacher is forced(被迫)to take action.
Yours
