八年级英语下册课文UNIT 1 What's the matter?Bus Driver and Passengers Save an Old ManAt 9:00 a.m. yesterday, bus No. 26 was going along Zhon ghua Road when the driver saw an old man lying on the side of the road. A woman was next to him, shouting for help.The bus driver, 24-year-old Wang Ping, stopped the bus without thinking twice. He got off and asked the woman what happened. She sai d that the man had a heart problem and should go to the hospital. Mr. Wang knew he had to act quickly. He toldthe passengers that he must take the man to the hospital. He expected most or all of the passengers to get off and wait for the next bus.But to his surprise, they all agreed to go with him. Some passengers helped Mr. Wang to move the man ona the b us.Thanks to Mr. Wang and the passengers, the doctors saved the man in time. "It's sad that many people don't want to help others because they don?t want any trouble," sa ys one passenger. "But the driver didn't think about himself. He only thought about saving a life."He Lost His Arm But Is Still ClimbingAron Ralston is an American man who is interested in mo untain climbing. As a mountain climber, Aron is used to t aking risks. This is one of the exciting things about doing dangerous sports. There were many times when Aron al most lost his life because of accidents. On April 26, 2003, he found himself in a very dangerous situation when cli mbing in UtahOn that day, Aron's arm was caught under a 360-kilorock that fell on him when he was climbing by himself inthe mountains.Because he could not free his arm, he stayed there for five days and hoped that someone would find him. But when his water ran out, he knew that he would have to do somethingto save his own life. He was not ready to die that day. Sohe used his knife to cut off half his right arm. Then, withhis left arm, he bandaged himself so that he would not lose too much blood. After that, he climbed down the mountain to find help.After losing his arm, he wrote a book called Between a R ock and a Hard Place. This means being in a difficult situ ation that you cannot seem to get out of. In this book, Aron tells of the importance of making good decisions, andof being in control of one's life. His lose for mountain cli mbing is so great that he kept on climbing mountains even after this experience.Do we have the same spirit as Aron? Let's think about it before we find ourselves“between a rock and a hard pla ce”,and before we have to make a decision that could m ean life or death.Unit 2 I'll help to clean up the city parksP11 3aStudents Who VolunteerMario Green and Mary Brown from Riverside High Sch ool give up several hours each week to help others.Mario loves animals and wants to be an animal doctor. H e volunteers at an animal hospital every Saturday mornin g. Mario believes it can help him to get his future dream job. “It' s hard work ,”he says ,“but I want to learn mor e about how to care for animals . I get such a strong feeling of satisfaction when I see the animals get better and the look of joy on their owners'faces. ”Mary is a book lover. She could read by herself at the age of four. Last year she decided to try out for a volunteerafter-school reading program .she still works there once a week to help kids learn to read. The kids are sitting in the libr ary, but you can see in their eyes that they?re going on a different journey with each new book. Volunteering here is a dream come true for me. I can do what I love to doand help others at the same time.P12 4bMost people today are only worried about getting go od jobs lots of money. In their free time, They think about what for fun or relaxation. However, few peo ple think about what they can do others. There aremany people who are less lucky than us. Volunteering ou r time to help these people is a good way our free ti me. For example, we can make plans sick children inthe hospital or raise money for homeless people. Somepeople even stop doing their jobs for a few months to a year to another country, like Africa, and help people there.P14 2bI ’Sendll You a Photo of LuckyDear Miss Li,I?d like to thank you for sending money to Animal Helpe rs. I?m sure you know that this group was set up to help disabled people like me. You helped to make it possible f or me to have Lucky. Lucky makes a big difference to mylife. Let me tell you my story.What would it be like to be blind or deaf? Or imagine yo u can?t walk ou use your hands easily. Most people woul d never think about this, but many people have these dif ficulties. I can?t use my arms or legs well, so normal thin gs like answering the telephone, opening and closing do ors, or carrying things are difficult for me. Then one day l ast year, a friend of mine helped me out. She talked to A nimal Helpers about getting me a special trained dog. Sh e also thought a dog might cheer me up. I love animals a nd I was excited about the idea of having a dog.After six months of training with a dog at Animal Helpers, I was able to bring him home. My dog?s name is Lucky —a good name for him because I feel very lucky to have him. You see, I?m only able to have a“dog-helper ”because of your kindness! Lucky is very clever and understands many English words. He can understandme when I give him orders. For example, I say,“Lucky! G et my book, ”and he does it at once.Lucky is a fantastic dog.I?ll send you a photo of him if you like, and I could show you how he helps me. Thank you again for changing my life.Best wishes,Ben SmithP16 Self-check 2Last week, everyone was trying up Jimmy, the Bike b oy. He was unhappy because he of money old bi kes. He some signs asking for old bikes and all h is friends on the phone them about the problem. He even notices at the supermarket. Then he told th e teachers at school about his problem and they a cal l-in center for parents. The ideas that he with workedout fine. He now has 16 bikes up and to childrenwho don?t have bikes.Unit 3 Could you please clean your room?P19 3aLast month, our dog welcomed me when I came home from school. He wanted a walk, but I was too tired.I threw down my bag and went to the living room. The minute I sat down in front of the TV, my mom came over.“Could you please take the dog for a walk? ”she asked. “Could I watch one show first? I”asked. “NO!”she replied angrily.“Youwatch TV all the time and never help out around the house! I can?t work all day and do housework all evening. ”“Well,I work all day at school, too!I?m jus t as tired as you are! ”I shouted back.My mom did not say anything and walked away. For one week, she did not do any housework and neither did I. Fi nally, I could not find a clean dish or a clean shirt.The next day, my mom came home from work to find the house clean and tidy.“Whathappened?” she asked in s urprise.“I?m so sorry, Mom. I finally understand that we need toshare the housework to have a clean and comfortable ho me,”I replied. P22 2b Dear Sir,I don?t understand why some parents make their kids help with housework and chores at home. Kids these days a lready have enough stress from school. They don?t have time to study and do housework, too. Housework is a waste of their time. Could we just let them do their job as st udents? They should spend their time on schoolwork in order to get good grades and get into a good university.Also, when they get older, they will have to do housework so there?s no need for them to do it now. It is the parents? job to provide a clean and comfortable environmentat home for their children. And anyway, I think doing chores is not so difficult. I don?t mind doing them.Mr. SmithDear Sir,I think it is important for children to learn how to do chores and help their parents with housework.It?s not enou gh to just get good grades at school. Children these days depend on their parents too much.They?re always askin g, “Could you get this for me?” or “Could you help me with that? ”Doing chores helps to develop children?s indep endence and teaches them how to look after themselves.It also helps them to understand the idea of fairness. Since they live in one house with their parents, they shouldknow that everyone should do their part in keeping it clean and tidy. Our neigh bor?s son got into a good collegebut during his first year, he had no idea how to take careof himself. As a result, he often fell ill and his grades dro pped. The earlier kids learn to be independent, the better it is for their future. Ms. MillerUnit 4 Why don’t you talk to your parents?P27 3aDear Mr. Hunt,My problem is I can?t get on with my family. Relations b etween my parents have become difficult.and development of toilets. It also encourages governments andsocial groups to think about ways to improve toilets inthe futu re.Linlin：Last year I went to the Hangzhou National Tea Museum.It?s a relaxing and peaceful place near a lake. The tea art performances show how to make a perfect cup of tea. Watching them prepare the tea with the beautiful tea sets is just as enjoyable as drinking the tea itself.I?ve finally re alized why my grandpa loves drinking tea and collectingtea sets.P68 4bMost of us______(see)Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck and other famous Disney characters in cartoons before. But have you ever________(be)to Disneyland? Disneyland_______(b e)an amusement park with a special theme-Disney characters and movies. There_________(be) many exciting rides, lovely restaurants and fantastic gift shops t here. You can also_________(see)the Disney characters wal king around the park. And have you ever________(hear)ofa Disney Cruise? This______ (be)a boat ride with a Disney t heme. You can_________(take)a ride on the boat for severa l days and eat and sleep on it. On the boat, you can______ __(shop)and have Disney parties before you_________(arriv e) at the Disney island.P70 2bSingapore-A Place You Will Never Forget!Have you ever been to Singapore? For thousands of tourists from China, this small island in Southeast Asia is a wo nderful and safe place to take a holiday. On the one hand, more than three quarters of the population are Chinese, so you can simply speak Putonghua a lot of the time.On the other hand, Singapore is an English-speaking country, so it?s also a good place to practice your English!Have you ever tried Chinese food outside of China? Maybe you fear that you won?t be able to find anything good to eat when you travel. In Singapore, however,you?ll find a lot of food from China; you won?t have any proble m getting rice, noodles or dumplings. Singapore is also an excellent place to try new food. Whether you like Indian food, Western food or Japanese food,you?ll find it all i n Singapore!Most large cities have zoos, but have you ever been to azoo at night? Singapore has a Night Safari. It might seem strange to go to a zoo when it?s dark. However, if you g o to see lions, tigers or foxes during the daytime,they?ll probably be asleep! A lot of animals only wake up at night ,so this is the best time to watch them. At the Night Safari, you can watch these animals in a more natural envir onment than in a normal zoo.One great thing about Singapore is that the temperatureis almost the same all year round. This is because the island is so close to the equator. so you can choose to go w henever you like-spring, summer, autumn or winter. And, of course,it?s n ot too far from China!Unit 10 I've had this bike for three years.P75 3aMy children are growing up fast. My daughter is 16 andmy boy has just started junior high school. As they get bigger our house seems to get smaller. So we?ve been clea ring out a lot of things from our bedrooms for a yard sale.We ?ve decided to each sell five things we no longer use. We?ll give the money we raise to a children?s home. My son was quite sad at first. He found a lot of toys that he doesn?t play with anymore but still wanted to keep. For example,he?s owned a train and railway set since his fourth birthday, and he played with it almost every week until he was about seven. And he didn?t want to lose the toy monkey he?s had since birth. I remember when he woul d never go to bed without it. My daughter was more und erstanding, although she also felt sad to part with certain toys. As for me, I didn?t want to give up my football shir ts, but, toI? be honest, I haven?t played for a while now. m getting older,too!P78 2aHometown FeelingsSome people still live in their hometown. However, others may only see it once or twice a year. Nowadays, millions of Chinese leave the countryside to search for work in the cities. Among these is Zhong Wei, a 46-year-old husband and father. He has lived in Wenzhou for thelast 13 years. With a hard job in a crayon factory, he doesn?t find much time to visit his hometown. “I used to ret urn home at least once a year, but I haven?t been back f or almost three years now. It?s a shame, but I just don?thave the time, ”he says.Many people like Zhong Wei regard with great interest how their hometowns have changed. Perhaps large hospitals and new roads have appeared. In many places, the go vernment has also built new schools and sent teachers from the cities to help.“I noticed that?s true of my ho metown, ” adds Zhong Wei . “Children have learned to read and count at my old primary school since the mid-20th century. But now the buildings are really old. I hear they?re going to build a new school there.”Zhong Wei t hinks such developments are good, and he also knows that his hometown cannot always stay the same.According to Zhong Wei, however, some things will never change.“Inmy hometown, there was a big old tree opp osite the school. It is still there and has become quite a s ymbol of the place. Most of the children in my time liked to play together under that big tree, especially during th e summer holidays. It was such a happy childhood. Our h ometown has left many soft and sweet memories in our hearts.”P79 2cMany Chinese people these days leave their to work i n the. They usually to their hometowns one or two times a________. Zhong Wei hasn?t been back in close t o three years. He has been working in a factory in W enzhou for the past 13 years.People like him are in how their hometowns are cha nging. New buildings are often built by the. ZhongWei thinks these changes are because things need to change in order to become better. But he also thinks some things change, and his hometown is still the place that holds all his childhood.。

八年级下册英语书课文(一)P22 2bDear Sir,I don‟t understand why some parents make their kids help with housework and chores at home. Kids these days already have enough stress from school. They don‟t have time to study and do housework, too. Housework is a waste of their time. Could we just let them do their job as students? They should spend their time on schoolwork in order to get good grades and get into a good university. Also, when they get older, they will have to do housework so there‟s no need for them to do it now. It is the parents‟ job to provide a clean and comfortable environment at home for their children. And anyway, I think doing chores is not so difficult. I don‟t mind doing them.Mr. SmithDear Sir,I think it is important for children to learn how to do chores and help their parents with housework. It‟s not enough to just get good grades at school. Children these days depend on their parents too much. They‟re always asking, “Could you get this for me?”or “Could you help me with that?”Doing chores helps to develop children‟s independence and teaches them how to look after themselves. It also helps them to understand the idea of fairness. Since they live in one house with their parents, they should know that everyone should do their part in keepingit clean and tidy. Our neighbor‟s son got into a good college but during his first year, he had no idea how to take care of himself. As a result, he often fell ill and his grades dropped. The earlier kids learn to be independent, the better it is for their future.Ms. Miller八年级下册英语书课文(二)P30 2bMaybe You Should Learn to Relax!These days, Chinese children are sometimes busier on weekends than weekdays because they to take so many after-school classes. Many of them are learning exam skills so that they can get into a good high school and later a good university. Others are practicing sports so that they can compete and win. However, this doesn‟t only happen in China. The Taylors are a typical American family. Life for Cathy Taylor‟s three children is very busy.” On most days after school,” Cathy says, “I take one of my two boys to basketball practice and my daughter to football training. Then I have to take my other son to piano lessons. Maybe I could cut out a few of their activities, but I believe these activities are important for my children‟s future. I really want them to be successful. ” However, the tired children don‟t get home until after 7:00 p.m. They have a quick dinner, and then it‟s time for homework.Linda Miller, a mother of three, knows all about such stress. “In some families, competition starts very young and continues until the kids get older,” she says. “Mothers send their small kids to all kinds of classes. And they are always comparing them with other children. It‟s crazy. I don‟t think that‟s fair. Why don‟t they just let their kids be kids? People shouldn‟t push their kids so hard.”Doctors say too much pressure is not good for a child‟s development.
