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.。

(本大题共5空,每空1分,共5分)Four types of friends you need in your lifeDo you know that people will die early if they have no friends during their lifetime? The survey shows if people want to live longer and more happily, you need to have some friends who can share your sadness and happiness or can be helpful when you are in trouble.The following friends are just what you need to keep the doctor away.A Loyal Best FriendEveryone needs a friend who will support you in different situations. 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. Remember that don’t be friends with someone just because they are from a different culture. Instead, keep your mind open, and if you meet someone from other countries, try to learn about their customs, values, and traditions.If you have such kinds of friends, you will surely live longer and more happily.任务型阅读:happier remember own Making sure九、任务型阅读(每空一词)As we know, Xiao Shenyang and Liu Qian did wonderful jobs in the CCTV Spring Festival Gala.

You may spend time with a friend and get to see where he lives. So remember to be polite.When to arrive?The first thing to remember is that when a friend invites you over, you need to arrive on time. If your friend tells you to come around 3:00 p.m., that means you can turn up a little bit late after 3:00 p.m. But usually it is a good thing to arrive at the right time.What to bring?Often it is also nice to bring something to your friend’s house. This could be a box of chocolates for you two share, or may be a movie that you can watch together. You can also bring some flowers. A little gift is a nice way to show your friend that you are excited to be at his house.How to greet?When you visit your friend’s house, you may also meet his parents. You should tell them who you are and they may tell you their names. As a child, I went to visit my friend Paul. I called his parents by their first names John and Mary. But now I know it is more polite to call them Mr or Mrs Smith. This will show them more respect(尊重)and then they may tell you to call them by their first names. Another way to show respect is to call them Madam or Sir.It is a cool thing to visit a friend’s house.

He enjoys his work, but it is not easy for him to relax(放松) 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 make model planes, model ships and something else. He was interested in it because it brings him lots of fun an d makes life colourful. So what is DIY? Yes, it is making or creating (创造) things by yourselves, 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 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 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.91~95 yourselves / save / green / way / because (when)96~100 with/ computer / difficult(hard )/ interested / colourfulVanilla is my best friend. She is a lovely girl with two big, beautiful eyes. But she always hides them behind a pair of glasses.One day, though, I nearly ended our friendship. I remember that day clearly. We were sitting in the classroom. The teacher was giving us our results of a Chinese test. I had done badly. I felt so sad that I wouldn’t talk to anyone. At lunchtime, I even stayed in the classroom alone. Suddenly, I heard a voice. It was Vanilla. “You look very unhappy,” she said. “What’s wrong?” I looked up at her, but said nothing. I knew Vanilla had got a good mark in the test. I thought she was making fun of me. I kept in silent, but Vanilla didn’t go away. She kept asking me questions, “Is it because of the exam? Do you want me to show you the right answers?” I looked away from her. When I looked up again, Vanilla had gone. And so had my exam paper! I looked everywhere for my paper, but couldn’t find it.In the afternoon, Vanilla came up to my desk and gave me my exam paper back. I looked at it and got a big surprise.

牛津译林版八年级英语上册任务型阅读专题练习A game of catch is not difficult at all. Two people throw a ballback and forth( 来回地掷球). It seems a little boring. The twopeople are close enough to talk, but they can’t touch each other.In fact, playing catch is part of baseball practice. It’s a populargame. Because baseball is an American sport and a big part of being American, playing catch is kind of an all-American dad activity. Outside cities, most people have backyards – not large enough to play baseball in, but just big enough for a game of catch. Those without yards can play in streets.But any American kid will tell you it’s much more than a game. Playing catch is a time to be with your father. It’s a time when there’s nothing to worry about except( 除了) catching a ball. When they play it, words move together with the ball itself, back and forth, easy and relaxing(放松). Kids and dads spend time together.The game can be good memories(记忆) of dads. Why? Dads are usually very busy. This is a time when a kid has all of his or her dad’s attention(注意力). There is no work, no phone and no other people around to take your dad away from you. For the time that it takes to play a game of catch, your dad is all yours.The Game of61What’s the game It’s part of baseball62.A 63 game•Two people throw a ball back and forth.•They can talk but can’t64each other when playing it.A 65 game•Catch is an all-American activity because 66is part of beingAmerican.•People play the game in yards or67.•Players needn’t worry about 68 except catching a ball,69and theball move together when they play it.A Dad-kid game•Kids and dads spend time together.•A kid can have the 70of his or her Dad when they play the game.61.

Here are a few simple ways to help you feel better when you are feeling sad.1. Stand up straight and this helps your energy flow(流动). When your energy is flowing freely, you can flow too.3. Smile! It’s easy to do and have good results. This way can not only leave you in a good mood but also bring others a good mood.3. Listen to music. It can be your favourite music. Some kinds of music work better than others, so try and find out what kind of music works the best for you.4. Take some “me” time. You can find pleasure in reading a book, watching a sunrise or having a hot bath, or something like that.5. Exercise. Even something as simple as taking a walk will get your blood flowing. It is a great way to clear your mind of anything that makes you sad.These ways will cheer you up when you are down, but don’t just use them when you are sad. Try and practice them every day to make them a habit. You will be surprised to learn that these simple ways will keep your sadness away.

It means I could stay in bed for one more hour.On the first day, all the new students had a meeting. The headmaster told us about the school rules. He also told us that the best way to get respect(尊重) was to study hard and get high grades. This sounded like my school in China.We had to move to different classrooms for different classes. We also had different students in some classes, so it was difficult for me to remember all the faces and names.I found that the homework was not as heavy as what I did in my old school. Yet it was a bit difficult for me at first, because all the homework was in English. We had many subjects: English, History, Science, Art and so on, but we can stop studying some subjects if we have no interest in them. Then they can choose some other subjects.I missed Chinese food a lot at lunch. British food is very different. British people like eating desserts(甜点) which usually come after their main meal.

It brings good results not only to the person showing the interest, but also to the person receiving the attention(注意).An Easy Way to Make a Good First Impression(印象)Smile as often as you can. Your smile is a sign of kindness. When someone feels sad, your smile is like the sun breaking through the clouds; your smile can help him or her realize that all is hopeful—there is still joy in the world.If You Don’t Do This, You Are Getting into TroubleRemember a person’s name. A person’s name is the sweetest and the most important sound in any language. We should realize the magic in a name. The name makes the person different from others; it makes him or her special among all others.A Good Way to Become a Good TalkerBe a careful listener first.

Haze can also be called “Smog”. The word "smog" is from the words “smoke” and “fog”, it first appeared in the early20th century, It is a kind of air pollution(污染)caused(导致)mostly by cars and factories. Smog will do great harm(伤害)to your health, especially lungs(肺).It can make you cough and cause skin and eye problems. It seems that we can do nothing to stop it, but only wait until the wind blows all the smog away. However, there are some easy ways to prevent it hurting you. Here are some of them.1. Don’t do exercise in the open.Exercising in the open makes you breathe(呼吸)deeply, and you will take in the particles (颗粒物)deep into your lungs.2. Stay indoors and keep the air clean.If you can, just stay in your room and keep the doors and windows closed. Remember to air your room twice a day, you can open the window at noon or at night for half an hour.3. Wear a mask.Paper and cotton masks can not help you in the haze weather. Some special masks, such as N95 masks, can keep you from breathing in the particles in the air.4. Change your diet.Scientists find that vitamin A, C and E can greatly help protect your eyes, nose and lungs.So eat more green vegetables and fresh fruit everyday. What’s more, do not eat food with too much fat (脂肪),it’s bad for your lungs.The haze weatherWhat is haze?·It’s 56 smog, a kind of smoky and 57 weather.·It is a kind pollution caused by cars and 58 .What is the harm?·It is 59 for our health.·Don’t 61 outside.·Stay indoors as long as possible with the doors and windows 62 .·Remember to open the windows for a while to keep the 63 clean. · 64 a mask to prevent taking in the particles.60 to prevent the haze?·Change your diet.

Many children say that they are just happy. Because sometimes when you want to share your joy with others, you also sing.Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because of happy feelings. However they sing most of the time for a different reason. Their singing is in fact a warning (警告) to other birds to stay away from their territory.Then what is a “territory”? A territory is an area that an animal, usually the male, claims asits own. Only he and his family can stay there. For example, people’s garden and house are their territories. If a strange person wants to come to your territory and hurt you, you may shout. This might be enough to make him afraid and go away.If so, people drive the person away without having to fight him. A bird does the same thing. He screams. But he does it almost any time, especially at nesting(筑巢) seasons. And birds sing louder in spring than in other seasons. This screaming is what we called a bird’s song, and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.You can see that birds have a language of their own.Title: Why do bird sing?Children’sideaBirds sing to share their 66 with other birdsSometimes birds sing because they feel 68 .People may 70 to make strangers stay away from theirterritory.Like people, birds warn other birds to stay away byscreaming, without 71 themA bird screams at 72 time.

It reminds people not to wastefood and fight hunger.A number of people in the world still don’t have enough food to eat. The food shortage(短缺) is a big problem all over the world. Now, there are more than 1000 million hungry people in the world according to the UN. Many children go to sleep hungry, and 15 million of them die of hunger each year.There are several reasons for food shortage. First, there are more natural disasters. Also, a growing population(人口) makes feeding everyone more difficult.Another big reason is food waste. Most people don’t realize how much food they throw away every day. The average(平均的) person throws away 50kg of food every year. According to the UN, more than one third of all food goes to waste each year.Over 1,300 billion kilograms of food is wasted each year. The food wasted in Europe can feed 200 million people, while in Latin America 300 million a year.So think twice before you throw away food.

School life is full of fun, and the school seems to be the safest place in the world.But do you know that our school life could be dangerous if we are not careful enough?How do we make the school safer and keep us away from danger? Here are some tips for us to be safe in an easy way. For example, we must remember some important rules in the playground. Before we do sports, we need to do some warm up activities(热身运功),and after that we should drink some water. And in the classroom, we need to learn how to behave well. Don’t run in the hallways. We mustn’t fight with or run after each other. And teachers need to keep an eye on the students after class and stop them from running. We students should remember not to be naughty and get into trouble. What’s more, we can have some practice to learn to protect ourselves from a fire. In this way, we can know where to go if there is a fire in our school. We should learn to usethe fire extinguisher(灭火器),too. I don’t think we should put our a fire by ourselves, because it is too dangerous for young students. Well, I think all of us should think more of our safety in school.How to keep___1_____in the schoolIn the playground Do some warm up activities__2___doing sports Drink some water___3_____doing sportsIn the __4____ Don’t run in the hallways.Teachers need to__5___their students carefully.

They happen during “Hurricane Season,” which is from June 1st until November 30th in the Atlantic Ocean and from May 15th until November 30th in the Pacific Ocean.Categories(类别)of HurricanesThere are five categories of hurricanes, which are based on wind speeds. The categories help people know how much damage(危害) a hurricane may cause because the greater the wind speed, the more dangerous the storm. For example, a Category 5 hurricane has winds over 155 miles per hour, which are strong enough to destroy the buildings along the shorelines completely.Hurricane DangersWhen a hurricane happens together with heavy rainfall, there can be a devastating flood. 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 th at it’s over, but before long the wind and rain increase again as thesecond 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 yourself in 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. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.7.8.9.10.Hurricanes CharacteristicsHurricane Season usually 1 about 6 months in the Atlantic Ocean and 6.5months in the Pacific Ocean.Devastating waves, wind, and rain are usually the2 of hurricanes.CategoriesHurricanes have been 3 into five categories by scientists, based on windspeeds.A Category 5 hurricane can destroy all the4 along the shorelines.5When a hurricane comes together with heavy rainfall, a terrible6 mayhappen.The eye is the 7 of a hurricane.

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 cancall them or write to them. Maybe, we can never see them again. However, we can make newfriends. It is surprising to find out how much we like new people when we get to know them,21 There is more good news for people who have friends. They live longer than people whodon’t. Why? It could be that they are much happier.
