外研版8年级英语上册阅读文章There are many kinds of tigers all over the world, and the largest tiger is the Northeast Tiger. Most Northeast Tigers live in the northeast of China, like Heilongjiang Province and Jilin Province. Because there are many forests and mountains, the tigers usually like living there. In the forests and mountains, there are fewer people getting out and coming in. So the tigers are very free. They can run after each other, catch and eat some small animals, like rabbits and deer.The Northeast Tigers are different from the ordinary tigers. For example, the Northeast Tigers can swim very well, but can't climb the trees.

高一英语阅读理解专题素质拓展主题2Zeigarnik效应(选材浙江省杭州市高级中学上学期期末考试高一

2024年高一英语阅读理解专题素质拓展主题2:Zeigarnik效应【核心阅读材料选材:浙江省杭州市高级中学20232024学年上学期期末考试高一英语】①No one likes interruption. We are born to seek balance and order. No matter what it is that you are doing, being interrupted involves a forceful stop midway and then having to reenter your former state, sometimes with great difficulty. Popular belief has it that interruption breaks the flow of your thinking and affects productivity negatively, and so it is advisable that you have an uninterrupted session of intensive work before your next break.②However, a Russian psychologist, Bluma Zeigarnik, might tell you otherwise. The connection between interruption and memory drew her attention when she was dining in a restaurant. She noticed how the waitresses had an amazing memory of the detailed orders yet to be paid for, but little memory of the orders that were already pleted.③Back in her laboratory, she conducted studies in which subjects were required to plete various puzzles. Some of the subjects were interrupted during the tasks. All the subjects were then asked to describe what tasks they had done. It turns out that adults remembered the interrupted tasks 90% better than the pleted tasks, and that children were even more likely to recall the unpleted tasks. To put it another way, unpleted tasks will stay on your mind until you finish them!④In parison to tasks that were already finished and ones that we haven’t even started, halfdone projects are highlighted in the mental todo list our brains draw up for us. Zeigarnik described this finding in the late 1920s, which was later called Zeigarnik effect. One possible explanation is that with interrupted tasks, we are longing for them to be pleted, in order to regain a sense of balance. Finishing them also means that we can finally clear up the mental backlog and give the space to more uping tasks.⑤Zeigarnik’s effect can be found everywhere, especially used in media and advertising. Have you ever wondered why cliffhangers work so well or why you just can’t get yourself to stop watching that series on Netflix? Ernest Hemingway once said about writing a novel, “It is the wait until the next day that is hard to get through.” So next time, when you are interrupted, appreciate it and take advantage of it to promote your productivity.【核心材料知识深挖】这篇文章探讨了干扰对人们思维和生产力的影响,以及Zeigarnik效应。

Around 70% of the people felt it was important to spend time in the garden, and over 50% of these described gardening as the most enjoyable thing they ever did.Only one in ten houses in Britain do not have a garden. People who live in houses without gardens often rent(租用) land from the government.At first, only very rich people had gardens. You can still see the gardens around houses with a long history, such as Chatsworth House or Castle Howard. In the early twentieth century, however, gardening became a hobby. People bought different kinds of seeds and plants for their gardens. Although roses, sunflowers and tomatoes are often grown in British gardens, they originally(起初) grew wild in other countries.Every year, there are competitions for the largest vegetables, but don’t expect to win: Britain’s biggest carrot is almost six meters long.1.In summer, British gardens are often ______.A. full of people digging thereB. colorful with different plantsC. too hot for people to work thereD. covered with grey leaves and plants2.

A lot of American parents give pocket money to their children, but their children have to do chores.Most American children think making pocket money will help them to understand money better. An American boy Jacob said, “I get $40 every month. I put half of them in the bank and spend the remaining money on new things that I need.”British Kids and Pocket MoneyIn Britain, kids in primary school get 4 or 5 pounds each week. When they enter middle school, they get about 9 pounds. Also, British boys get a little more pocket money than girls.Like kids in the US, British children do chores to get their pocket money. That's why British children know a lot about spending money. 7% of them spend less than £1 each week, 73% spend between £1 and £5 each week, and 20% spend over £5 each week. Mos t of them spend money on sweets, crisps and chocolate.6.Jacob puts ________ in the bank every month.A.10 dollars B.20 dollars C.30 dollars D.40 dollars7.In Britain, most kids spend ________ every week.A.less than £1 B.between £1 and £5C.between £5 and £10 D.more than £58.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A.British boys get a little more pocket money than girls.B.Most American children think making pocket money will help them understand money betterC.In the US, a little pre-school kid may get one or two dollars.D.British kids in primary school get about 9 pounds each week.9.What do most kids in Britain spend their pocket money on?A.Clothes.B.Books.

The 57-year-old father of three said on the Today. show that his children Jennifer and Rory were not allowed phones until their thirteenth birthday and his younger daughter Phoebe is still waiting for one.“We’ve made a rule in our family that it’s 13 when you get a phone. ” He also said as a result his child often ret urned home from school complaining, “All the other kids have it. I'm the only one without it. It’s so embarrassing. ”Asked if he keeps passwords (密码) to his son’s and daughters’ email and facebook accounts (账号) ,Mr Gates said that he doesn’t for Jennifer,16. who he says“old enough”.Besides their wealth, Mr and Mrs Gates, who live in Lake Medina, have said they want to raise their children as usually as possible. It is said their kids have to do housework after school and aren't given much pocket money.And in 2010 Mr Gates said that he wanted to give most of his $61 billion away rather than hand it down. “That wouldn’t be good for my kids or so ciety”, he said.Mr Gates left Microsoft in 2008 to put his heart into charity. During the Today interview with host Matt Lauser, he said that helping others made him feel happy as creating software.“What you really feel is what you’ve achieved. If a piece of software gets out there and lots of people love it一it lets them get their work done in better ways—that’s exciti ng,” he explained.11. How old is Phoebe?A. Maybe 11 years old.B.

How Mr and Mrs Gates raise their children.D.Many kids help parents to do chores in the house. They may take out the trash, walk the dogor sweep the floor. In return, some kids get money or other rewards(奖励)from their parents,Such as 20 minutes to play computer games.But some people do not think that kids should get rewards for doing chores. One of them isJane Smith, a parenting educator and family coach. She believes if kids get rewards, t hey may think that work isn’t worth doing unless you get something in return. For example, kids won’t sweep the floor if they see it is dirty. But they will do it if their parents reward them for it.“Every house is a team effort,” Jane said. “A home is a living space for everyone in the family. It’s important for kids to see that we all have a responsibility to keep our home clean.”Other people hold different opinions. They believe that money or other rewards encourage kids to do more chores. It also teaches them real world lessons. They can learn about how we need to work to make money.Now, there are also apps that encourage kids to do chores. The apps give kids points and digital (电子的) gifts that can be used either online or in life. With the app ChoreMonster, kids earn digital points after doing chores. Kids can exchange their points for real rewards, such as time to play video games or a trip to the mall. “Our goal is to encourage kids so they can earn rewards,” says Joe Black, founder of ChoreMonster.“Kids need positive (积极的) power to make them do chores.”16. Jane Smith thinks that____________.A. housework isn’t worth doingB. kids do like doing choresC. kids should get something in returnD. kids shouldn’t get rewards for doing chores17. ChoreMonster is a(n) ________________.A. educatorB. coachC. appD. app founder18. If rewarded for doing chores, kids can learn to _______________ .A. take responsibilitiesB. use apps wellC. make money through workD. understand team effort19. What’s the purpose of the apps mentioned in the passage?A. To give kids points and gifts.B. To encourage kids to do chores.C. To exchange points for real rewards.D. To give kids advice on doing chores.20. The passage mainly talks about ________________.A. how to encourage kids to do choresB. what kind of chores kids should doC. if kids should do chores at homeD. whether kids should be rewarded for doing choresE.Nobody likes doing the dishes because doing the dishes is boring. A new study shows that washing dishes by hand is better for children’s health than a dishwasher(洗碗机).Research in Sweden surveyed the parents of 1,029 children. They found that children whose families hand-washed the dishes had fewer allergies(过敏)than those whose families used to dishwasher to do the dishes.Earlier research showed that dishes washed by dishwasher are cleaner than those washed by hand. So why would kids who eat with a little dirtier plates be better at stopping allergies? It says the reason kids have allergies is because their environment are too clean.Your immune system(免疫系统)keeps you healthy by fighting against(反对)germs(微生物)and viruses(细菌).But when you have allergies, it doesn’t work well and tries to fight common things like usual foods.“Meeting germs, especially early in life, is good for the imm une system,” says the writer of th e study, Dr. Bill in a hospital in Sweden.“You encourage the immune system in different ways and it becomes strong.”This study shows that while using the dishwasher might be easier, doing more housework with hands ,we have fewer allergies.21.According to the new study,____________ .A.washing dishes with hands is better for childrenB.washing dishes with dishwashers is better for childrenC.washing dishes with hands is much more boringD.washing dishes with dishwashers is much more boring22.Through the 3rd paragraph ,the writer wants to tell us__________ .A.we should wash dishes with dishwashersB.dishes washed by hands are dirtierC.too clean environments are bad for childrenD.it’s good for kids to eat with dirty plates23.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A.The immune system fights against germsB.The immune system fights against virusesC.The immune system fights against allergiesD.Allergies are bad for the immune system24. Dr.Bill thinks that_____________ .A.kids should stay away from germsB.kids can eat with a little dirtier platesC.kids are too young to meet germsD.kids should eat with a little cleaner plates25.What’s the best title for the passage?A.Doing The Dishes Is BoringB.How To Keep CleanC.The Cleaner,The HealthierD.More Housework,Fewer Allergies参考答案A.1-5 BACDBB.6-10 BBDCAC.11-15 ACBCDD.16-20 DCCBDE.21-25 ACCBD。

Try to find out whether your teacher reallydislikes you, or whether something else is going on. Here are some questions to ask yourself:1. Are you the only person being treated badly, or is your teacher rough on the wholeclass? Ask your classmates if they are having trouble with the teacher, too. If they say yes, perhapsyour teacher is having problems outside the school, or is new and at a loss.2. Are you working up to your ability? Maybe you got a C in your last test, and yourteacher told you that you could do better. But the kid sitting beside you got a C, too, and theteacher didn ’t say anything to him! Isn ’t this unfair? Well, it could be that your teacher knows thatyou could get a better grade if you put more effort into it. Teachers often grade students bydifferent standards. It ’s their way of encouraging a student to try a little harder.3. Are you more sensitive than other students? There ’nsothing wrong with beingsensitive, but if you react to criticism quite differently from others, this could be a reason why youthink your teacher doesn ’t like you.4. Does your teacher seem to act unfairly all the time, or just once in a while? Think about theharsh things your teacher has done or said to you. Are these things happening every day, or justonce or twice a month? If your teacher really hates you, you would probably be picked on all thetime. If your teacher has acted unfairly only a few times, then there ’prsobably something elsegoing on.If you take the time to ask yourself these questions, you ’ll get a better sense of what ’ s happening between you and your teacher.Choose the best answer for each question.( )6.

What does the underlined word “it ”in the third paragraph mean?A. Your ability.B. A C grade.C. Your study.D. Your teacher.( )10. What ’s the best title for this passage?A.

How to get a better sense in schoolHelp: rough adj. 粗暴的at a loss 不知所措standard n. 标准sensitive adj. 敏感的react v. 反应criticism n. 批评harsh adj. 苛刻的pick on 故意刁难;挑剔CWhat will you do to make sure you reach your goals? There are three main steps to get towhere you want to go.First, sit down and write your dreams out. By writing them you will get a better idea ofwhere you really want to go. Imagine yourself at the end of the year or maybe in five years. Whatdo you see? How do people see you? What are you doing? Are you successful?Well, a dream is just that. It ’svaision of how you see yourself in the future. Once youknow the direction in which you want to go, you can begin working on some goals.Second come the goals. Goals are “wants ”. So are dreams, but goals are more specific. Ifyou want to be rich, tell how much money you need to be rich. If you want good grades, tell whatyou mean by “good ”In. fact, the more specific the goal is, the easier it w ill be to get it. Givenumbers and times. Don ’t use words like “lots ”or “more”. For example, I want a “B”my subjects.Third are the objectives. They tell exactly what you will do and when you will do it.When you think about what you will do, don’utse words like “try o”r “maybe”B e.sure yourobjectives can be measured. Every day or every week you can say, “Did I do this? ”and youanswer with either a yes or a no. Don ’t leave room for “maybes”.OK. Here is another example. I say I want a “B”in each subject. My objectives are:I will go to every class every day.I will sit in the middle of the classroom.I will re-read my notes from every class every day.I will finish every assignment the day when it is given.Well, you get the idea. Each of my objectives is specific and each one can be measured. If Ido all these things, there is a pretty good chance for me to get what I want, which means I fulfillmy dream.Fill in the blanks with proper words according to the passage.5. The writer advises you to write your _______ out so that you can get a better idea of whereyou really want to go.6. Dreams are not so _______ as goals.7. _______ tell exactly what to do and when to do it.8. “I want to learn more English in the future ”is a dream, while “I want to go to the English Department of Wuhan University ”is a _______.9.

When Edith heard there was a competition to invent a brand-new machine, she longed to enter. Her idol (偶像), the famous inventor Mathew, was going to be the judge! Edith planned and worked on her invention every day after school. Finally, a huge light-up music box was finished—just in time for the competition. She was sure it would win first prize. Everyone would certainly be amazed when the lights shone and the music began to play.However, when Edith slowly turned the handle (手柄), nothing happened. The machine needed more power.Edith turned the handle faster, but no matter how quickly she went, she couldn’t get more than a flash from the lights. There was no way this would win and she had run out of time to fix it.On the competition night, Edith went to the town hall with a heavy heart. She set up her music machine, feeling like a failure.Mathew burst through the doors on his bike, whose pedals (脚踏板) gave off light. Everyone cheered excitedly. He got off the bike and walked around the rooms to see the inventions on show. Edith was nervous as he came over. “Can you tell me about your machine?” he asked. “It is a music machine that lights up.” Edith said in a low voice. Mathew clapped happily. “Amazing! Show me how it works.”Edith turned the handle faster than she’d ever managed before. Terrible slow music started and the lights flashed on and off. Someone nearby laughed. Edith’s cheeks turned red. “Don’t worry.” Mathew smiled, “All my inventions went wrong when I was younger. You mustn’t give up.” Hiding behind the machine, Edith couldn’t wait for the competition to end.The judging had almost finished when suddenly the lights of the hall went out. No one could get the lights to work and the competition couldn’t carry on. Edith thought for a moment. If onlyshe were stronger, she could have turned the handle of her machine faster and lit up the room. In the dark, Edith could just see Mathew climbing onto his bike, with his pedals glimmering (发出微光).注意:1. 所续写短文的词数应为100 左右;2. 应使用5 个以上短文中标有下划线的关键词语;3. 续写部分分为两段,每段的开头语已为你写好;4. 续写完成后,请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。

Today there are 6.4 billion people on the earth. By the year 2050 there may be 12.5 billion. There are many people to feed. We need more and more food.
One way to produce more food is growing stronger plants. For thousands of years, farmers have made plants better. Every season, they pick the best plants for the next season. It works very slowly. Since 1983, scientists have been able to change plants more quickly by changing their genetic(遗传的) material. Foods from plants grown in this way are called genetically modified (转基因的) foods, or GM foods.
By changing the genetic material of a plant, it is possible to make new plants. Scientists make plants which are strong against plant diseases (疾病). They can also help in our diseases: a kind of rice will be grown, for example, which stops people becoming blind.
Rich countries produce GM foods because they are easy to grow and bring in more money. Poor countries are interested in them because they help produce more food.
GM plants are not natural. No one knows how good or bad they are. Making GM foods is only one way of feeding people in 2050.There are strong feelings against them because they are unnatural. They may feed people, but then hurt them or their children later. But both rich and poor countries are interested in their uses, and they are not going to go away.
In 2050, we may think differently about them.
