2020-2021年八年级英语下册阅读理解点解析（Word版附答案）经典一、八年级英语下册阅读理解专项练习（含答案解析）1．阅读理解An old man was fishing in the bank of a river. A girl came to see him fishing. The old man was really good at fishing and it didn't take long for him to catch a full basket of fish. The old man saw that the girl was very cute, and he wanted to give her a whole basket of fish. But the girl shook her head. The old man was surprised and asked "Why don't you want the fish?"The girl replied, "I want the fishing rod（竿）in your hands.”The old man asked, "Why do you want the rod?""It doesn't take long to eat all the fish in a basket. But if I have the fishing rod, I can go fishing by myself and I won't be afraid of not having any more fish to eat."I think you will certainly say that the girl is very smart. Wrong! If she doesn't know how to fish, she can not have fish to eat, even though she has the fishing rod. It's useless to only have a fishing rod. Fishing skills are the most important, not the fishing rod.Too many people think that if they have a "fishing rod" in their life, they will no longer fear the wind and rain. They are just like the girl, who thought that if she had a fishing rod, she would have fish to eat.（1）The old man was fishing on the bank of a .A. riverB. lakeC. poolD. sea（2）Why did the girl refuse the fish the old man gave her?A. Because she didn't like fish.B. Because she wanted the old man's fishing rod.C. Because the old man had few fish.D.

"It's what I want," he said and began to cut it. The stone cried, "Ouch! I don't want to be a stone. I want to be the sun. That would be great." The wise man said, "Be the sun!" And he became the sun. But the sun was much hotter, so he said, "I don't like this. I'd like to be the moon. It looks cool!" The wise man said again, "Be the moon!" And he became the moon. "This is hotter than being the sun, because the light from the sun shines（照射）on me" he said, "I don't want to be the moon. I want to be a blacksmith again. That's the best life."But the wise man said, "I'm tired of your changing. You want to be the moon, now you are the moon, and you'll be the moon in the future."（1）Why did the blacksmith want to be a stone on the mountain?A. Because he didn't like working.B.

Written by US writer Cormac McCarthy. The book came out in 2006 and won the Pulitzer Prize (普利策奖) in 2007. In the book, McCarthy shows man’s true nature, which I think is the high point of the book.The main character (人物) is a great father —he has a strong will to live and keep his child safe. During their journey, he is really tired, but he tries to find food anywhere he can.Finally, he finds a place to hide in with lots of food inside. There is enough for them to eat for days. He is a selfless (无私的) father, always making sure his child has something to eat.But sometimes, the man becomes emotional (情绪化的) and starts to think deeply about his past. His memories of the past do nothing but let him down when he wakes up and sees the real world around him.In a word, this novel is a great read. The man is not a perfect hero, but all of us can see a little of ourselves in him. Love always wins, in stories or real life. This book makes us learn to love others and一、完形填空1. C2. B3. B4. A5. D6.

I often became unhappy with my parents by shouting at them and not talking with them.Later on, when I thought about it, I understood it was wrong to do that. I decided to try my best to calm myself down and be good with others.Now I start to act more politely to people around me. When I laugh, I show at least eight teeth. That's how happy I am feeling.In the past, I had another teenage problem. I cared about my looks very much. I spent lots of time in front of the mirror every day deciding what my hair should look like, while all my dirty clothes were on my bedroom floor.As life went on, I learned that sometimes looks isn't that important.

We went with our friends Edward Smith and his wife Tina to the Yorkshire Moors. This is a beautiful place. It is a natural park. There are lots of places to walk on the tops of the hills, miles of grassland with no people, just sheep and birds.Edward, who had just come out of hospital, could not walk as far as be used to. However this meant that we walked in the mornings, and then stopped at a cafe for lunch each day, before returning to the place we live. Edward and I slept in front of the fire all afternoon, while the ladies went for another walk. Very pleasant!I have taken lots of photos from the place we live, across the valley（峡谷）below us, of the morning sunrise, and the mist in the valley.

This is how wind power works. Wind makes windmills spin (旋转). When the windmills spin, they make electricity. Then we can use the electricity.A lot of people think that wind power is new, but that’s not true.For thousands of years, people have used wind to sail boats and move water. We still do those things today, but these days we mostly use wind power to make electricity.Wind power is a very popular source of energy. Most people think that we should use it more and more. First of all, it’s clean. Windmills don’t pollute the environment at all. Second, we can use wind power forever. After all, we will always have wi nd. Also, wind power is cheap, and it’s getting even cheaper.A lot of people don’t understand wind power very well. They believe that there are problems with wind power, but many of those problems are not real. For example, some people say that windmills are dangerous for birds. They used to be true, but it isn’t true anymore. Old windmills killed birds because they spun very fast. New windmills spin slowly, and they aren’t dangerous for birds.However, there are real problems with windmills. One problem is that many people think windmills are very ugly. This is a problem for people, because windmills are often in very pretty areas. Also, wind doesn’t blow all the time, so we can’t use wind power all the time. Finally, windmills are noisy.Wind power is becoming more and more common. Right now, more than 80 countries use wind power. About 2.5 percent of the world’s power comes from the wind. For some countries, that number is a lot higher. Wind power gives Denmark more than 25 percent of its electricity.1. Why DON’T new windmills kill birds?

Windmills are too expensive to use all the timeD. Wind doesn’t blow all the time4. What does the article say about wind power?A. Most people don’t like it.B. It’s getting cheaper.C. Denmark doesn’t use it.D. It’s getting more expensive.5. What is the best title for the passage?A. Expensive WindmillsB. Cheap and Clean EnergyC. Popular and Clean Wind PowerD.

Everyone has different opinions about where is the best place to live in. Also, the best places to live are not always home to the best schools. Finally, many schools specialize in different areas of study. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology, for example, is a great school for computer science and technology-related fields of study. However, if you want to study oceanography (海洋学), your interests may be better served by attending school in a place that is on a coastline or near the ocean.Now I am sure that you know which schools are considered the best in the country. So I will tell you about which states I believe are the best to live in.California is a nice state. Northern California specifically has very good weather. Los Angeles in Southern California is another story though. Life in Los Angeles is full of excitement and fast,and sometimes dangerous.As for me, I enjoy the time I spent in Massachusetts, Virginia and Maryland and these states have a lot of history and culture. The weather is not as perfect as California, but it is still quite nice. My favorite areaof America is the Mid-west. Middle America, I think, is home to the true American sense of values. In addition, there are many good universities there.Also, you need to think about your likes and dislikes and then research the various states. You like sunshine and hate snow? Then you probably won't like the Midwest or even the Northeast. Open space, nature and peace and quiet? Then you probably should stay away from America's large cities. Are you interested in government? Then Washington D.C. is the only place for you. Whatever you decide, put some thought into it.The place you live could be the difference between a great study-abroad experience and a state of great suffering on earth.1. From the first paragraph we can conclude (得出结论) that in the USA _____.A. all colleges and universities lie in big citiesB. all colleges and universities lie in beautiful placesC. famous colleges and universities lie in nice placesD. famous colleges and universities may not lie in nice places2. What should be considered first if you want to study in the USA?A. The climate.B. The scenery.C. The study condition.D. The living condition.3. From the third paragraph we can find that _____.A.
