人教版英语八年级下册_Unit2_单元拓展阅读训练
Unit2 单元拓展阅读训练—扩宽视野,启迪心智A.DOGS can be good friends for humans. Or they can even help blind people. But have you heard of these animals competing in dog shows?Well, the US just held the 140th annual Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show (威斯敏斯特全犬种大赛) in New York City. This is the second oldest sporting event in the US. This year’s Best in Show was C.J., a German short haired pointer (猎狗). He won against over 2,700 other dogs.But what goes into preparing for this show? First, a dog must be 100 percent one kind of breed (品种) to compete. Dogs need good training to do well. And they need to be successful at other important dog shows, too.On the day of the show, people look after the dogs very carefully. They brush the dogs’ hair and make their hairstyles look perfect. The owner and dog step into the ring and run around the outside to show everyone the dog. Then they move to the judges. Judges are looking at everything: how they act, their fur (毛发) and many small things.To compete at dog shows like this, it costs around $50,000 (about 330,000 yuan) to $100,000 a year. That goes to trainers, travel and taking care of the dog. So why do people do it?Some do it to help teach people about dog breeds, while others do it to make money. But they must have a love of their furry friends. Or they wouldn’t spend that much time and money on them.1. The Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show is ________ in the US.A. a dog competition to help blind peopleB. held for the first time this yearC. the second oldest sporting eventD. only for German short haired pointers2. How many dogs took part in this year’s Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show?A. 100B.140C. 2,700D. more than2,7003. To take part in this show, the dog needs the following EXCEPT _____.A. to help many blind peopleB. to be 100 percent one kind of the breedC. to get trained to do things wellD. to win other dog shows4. What does the underlined word “judge”mea n in Paragraph 4?A. 保安B. 裁判C. 观众D. 选手5. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?A. It costs little money to compete at dog shows.B. The cost mainly goes to training the dogs.C. Dog owners only want to make money from the show.D. The show can teach people to love dogs.B.“Volunteering makes you look at the world differently. You see how little things can change a person’s life for the better, which makes everyone a better person,” Mason, a volunteer sai d. National Volunteer Week started in 1974 and is held every April. It is a time to thank volunteers for their achievements. It is also a perfect opportunity(机会) to encourage others to take their first step towards becoming a volunteer. Making the decision to take the first step can be the biggest problem, because they often wonder if they will be able to meet the organization’s expectations(期望). Some people fear (害怕)not knowing anyone else in the group. Not having enough time also stops some from sharing their abilities.The following tips can help if you have some of these worries:·Start out slowly, and don’t add too much pressure. Even a few hours a month can make a big difference in someone’s life.·Choose an organization with the same interest and common values.·Work with a veteran volunteer. He volunteered a lot, and he can help you increase the confidence and completely understand the organization’s expectations.·Invite a friend or family member to serve. It is a good experience to volunteer with them.·Finally, it is most important to enjoy the volunteer experience and to remember that not all volunteer experiences are perfect. If one experience doesn’t work, don’t give up and you’ll surely find the right opportunity.Spend some time on voluntee r work and you will see great changes in people’s lives. As Mason discovered during his volu nteer experience, “…little things can change a person’s life.”6.Volunteering can help .A.make a decisionB.see the world clearlyC.thank other peopleD.make a person’s life better7.What could be the reason to stop people taking the first step?A.They don’t have enough time.B.They are stopped by their families.C.They fear that their abilities are shared.D.They don’t expect to become volu nteers.8.Which of the following can help people take the first step?A.Start out quickly.anize a training meeting.C.Invite a friend to be with them.D.Join in a group with different values.9.The underlined word “veteran” in the passage means “”.A.politeB.humorousC.youngD.experienced10.What is the main idea of the passage?A.To tell people to make changes in their lives.B.To encourage people to start their volunteering.C.How to make great achievements in volunteering.D.How to keep on volunteering whatever happened.C.It is difficult to set up a successful charity(慈善)group. But two American kids have done it.Grace Callwood, 12, is from Edgewood Middle School in Maryland. She set up a charity group called the We Cancerve Movement. It donates(捐赠) clothes, food and other things to homeless children. In four years, it has helped more than 3,700 kids.When Grace Callwood was 7 years old, she got a kind of cancer(癌症) . She had to leave school and give up her favourite hobby—dancing. She also gained (获得)weight because of cancer treatment. She couldn't fit into her new back-to-school clothes. So she donated the clothes to two girls in need. It made her feel good, so she kept doing it. In 2011, she started the We Cancerve Movement.Similarly, Shreya Papneja, from Carson Middle School in Virginia, started a charity group called Children's Health Awareness Programme in Schools at the age of 13. It helps kids make healthy choices and tries to stop childhood obesity. A doctor once told Shreya Papneja that more thanone-third of the kids in America are overweight. She did a lot of research about it. Then she made a website to teach others ab out exercise and healthy eating. “I know how hard it is to make a change,” she said.

However, the journey changed her life and she also changed the world.In 2006, Doyne took a backpacking trip through the Himalayan Mountains in the country of Nepal (尼泊尔)that was destroyed by the war. Because Doyne had grown up comfortably in Mendham , New Jersey, the USA, she was surprised and upset to see so many orphans(孤儿) living on the streets. She wanted to do something about it. So she used her savings of $5,000 to buy a piece of land in the village of Surkhet, Nepal and build the kids a home, the Kopila Valley Children's Home.The Kopila Valley Children's Home opened its door in 2008. Doyne cares for 26 kids at the home at present. The children at the home learn skills such as cooking and other chores. And she has helped more than 700 other homeless kids find families. She also runs a program that provides scholarships(奖学金) for poor families to send their children to school.Do Something(an organization that provides support for teens who want to make a difference in the world) also did something for Doyne. On June 4th, 2009, the organization gave Doyne $100,000 for her service as the 2009 Do Something Award. Doyne also made a plan to build a school with the money she had just won.16.What did Maggie Doyne decide to do before she started college?A.To find a part-time job.

Keeping pets lowers blood pressure and makes people less worried. Animals are increasingly important in treating older people who have memory loss and other brain problems. These people often feel nervous and upset. Activities with animals help them improve their physical condition and also give them joy, entertainment and loving friendship.Here is a case that shows the benefits(优点)of animals. John was a six-year-old mute. He had no physical problems. He just refused to talk. His older cousin, Ned, had a parrot(鹦鹉)called Sally, and John used to visit it. When he arrived, Net used to say, “Hi, John!” We a ll know parrots copy what they hear. After a few visits, Sally began saying “Hi, John!” when John came into the room. Then, one day, John turned to the parrot and replied “Hi, Sally!” Staying with the parrot encouraged John to begin talking.Another use of animal helpers is in schools. In some cases, animals are used to help children with physical or personal problems. In other cases, they are used to teach children to get on and share with others, and even to teach them about animals.If you want to know more about animal helper programs, you can get in touch with organi- zations like Riding for the Disabled or do a search under “animal therapy” on the Internet. You don’t have to be an animal trainer or a doctor to join in.21.Which is NOT mentioned as an illness that animals can help with?A. Heart diseaseB. CancerC. FeverD.

They organized the event “Pyjamas Day” to support Chri stopher's Smile.“We wanted to raise money for our charity in a way that the whole school couldjoin in it, so each pupil paid £1 to wear his or her pyjamas to school on Pyjamas Day,” said the young organizers.
