8上Unit3 阅读理解8篇Passage 1(2023秋·全国·八年级专题练习)Are you shy sometimes? The answer from 16-year-old Liu Yuexian is “Yes”. “When my teacher asked me to come to the blackboard, I was too nervous to work out the problem,” said Liu. “I thought everyone was looking at me.”Do you feel the same as Liu? Experts have found that more than 80 per cent of middle school students feel afraid to be the centre of attention. Shyness means feeling frightened when you’re around other people. Some kids are born shy. Some become shy later because of their life experiences. It’s OK if it takes you a while to feel yourself again when you go to a new place or meet new people.In fact, everybody gets a little shy sometimes. It’s just a case of how much. Most people have red faces and talk in broken sentences when they get shy. But some become so shy that they won’t go to a restaurant because they are too nervous to order and pay for their food. Some are afraid of meeting new people, so they seldom go outside. This kind of shyness can be bad for a person.If shyness doesn’t stop you from doing something you want to do, being shy isn’t a very big problem. Some experts say shy people are smarter because they think more and talk less. Shy people are also good at working with others because they think more for other people. You see, being shy isn’t all bad. But remember not to let good opportunities pass you by just because of it. If you have to sing a song at a birthday party or practise spoken English in front of others, just do it! There’s nothing to be afraid of.1.________ of middle school students feel afraid to be the centre of attention.A.Less than 80% B.More than 80% C.Less than 60% D.All2.What does the underlined word “frightened” mean?A.兴奋的B.勇敢的C.自信的D.害怕的3.What can we learn from the third paragraph?A.Shyness can’t st op you from doing something you want to do.B.Being shy isn’t a very big problem.C.If shyness stops you from doing something you want to do, it is bad for you.D.All kinds of shyness are good for you.4.Why are shy people smarter according to some experts?A.Because they are good at working.B.Because they think less and talk more.C.Because they think more and talk less.D.Because they can speak in front of others.5.What’s the passage mainly about?A.Shyness is bad for everyone.B.Shyness is not all bad and we should be brave.C.Shyness is good for everyone.D.We should practise spoken English by ourselves.Passage 2(2023秋·全国·八年级专题练习)As time goes by, are you still the same person you used to be? Many of you would think you are. But according to a new study, your personality can change greatly. You could be a completely different person at 77, compared to when you were a 14-year-old, reported The Huffington Post.Psychologists at the UK’s University of Edinburgh did the study on a group of Scottish peop le. The research found that almost everyone’s personality changed when they grew old. The findings are published in a journal called Psychology and Aging.The research is based on a study that began in 1950. A group of teachers gave more than 1,200 14-year-old students personality tests. They tested six basic personality traits: self-confidence, conscientiousness, perseverance, desire to excel, creativity and moods.In 2012, researchers successfully found 174 of the 1,200 students, who were 77 years old on average at the time. They agreed to take a personality test similar to the one they had completed 63 years earlier.Researchers then compared the then-and-now test results. They were surprised to find great changes to all six personality traits of these people. Moods and conscientiousness had changed less. But there were still not too many similarities between the two results.The younger and older self seemed to be totally different for each person. It was “as if the second tests had been given to differen t people,” the study’s authors noted.In the past, personality was widely believed to be stable. William James, the father of American psychology, said that personality is “set like plaster”. This new study may bring some fresh ideas to the theory.6.Psych ologists at the UK’s University of Edinburgh did a study on________.A.Chinese people B.Scottish peopleC.British people D.American people7.In the study in 1950, teachers gave more than 1,200 14-year-old students________ tests.A.sight B.language C.personality D.oral English8.How many basic personality traits did the teachers test in 1950?A.One. B.Five. C.Six. D.Seven.9.According to the study, we can learn that________.A.there are too many similarities between the younger and older selfB.the younger and older self are different for each personC.the younger and older self are similar for each personD.there is no differences between the younger and older self10.What does the passage mainly tell us?A.Personality is stable. B.Everyone has the same personality.C.Personality may change as people grow older. D.The results of the study are the same.Passage 3(2023秋·全国·八年级专题练习)What makes us who we are? This question has two typical answers. One is the environment that surrounds us when we grow up, and the other is our genes. In English, this is called the “nature vs nurture debate”. Nature means genes, whereas nurture means environment, including the people around you.There is a famous saying: “Give me a child until the age of 7 and I’ll show you the man.” The meaning is that the environment in the early part of our life has the biggest effect on our adult life. Now, there is scientific research to support this famous saying.Scientists at the universities of Exeter, UK and Hamburg, Germany did studies on birds. They found that their personalities were affected most by the birds around them when they grew up—more so than genes. They watched small birds in new environments, and wrote down how much they explored. Birds that grew up with very curious birds were more curious themselves.Nick Royle from the University of Exeter in the UK said the research was surprising because it shows that “for these birds, personality is mainly determined by environment.” However, human personalities are a lot more comp licated than birds, so there is much we still don’t know. The nature vs nurture debate will continue for a longtime, if not forever.11.According to the first paragraph, nature means ________, and nurture means________.A.environment; genes B.genes; environmentC.child; adult D.adult; child12.________ has great impact on our adult life.A.The environment in our early life B.The environment in our old lifeC.The gene in our early life D.The gene in our adult life13.Scientists from the two universities did studies on________.A.human B.adults C.birds D.children14.The study in the third paragraph tells us________.A.gene is the most important to the birds’ personalityB.environment is the most important to the birds’ personalityC.the personality of birds is not related to environmentD.the personality of birds is not related to gene15.Human personalities are________birds.A.simpler than B.more complicated thanC.less complicated than D.as simple asPassage 4(2023秋·全国·八年级专题练习)Every country shares things in common: we value family and laughter, cherish food and health, and celebrate large festivals and traditions. Yet within the similar things we share, there are unique parts of each country. One characteristic that is famous of British people is their sense of humor, particularly self-mockery.This is a type of humor that criticizes and undervalues oneself. For example, a fat person may joke: “I’m on a new sea food diet. If I see food, I eat it.” This is a well-known self-mockery joke. Famous British writer Oscar Wilde once said: “I am so clever that sometimes I don’t understand a word that I am saying.”It’s difficult to say why self-mockery is tied to the British people. But every nation’s sense of humor comes from its culture and history. It could come from another British characteristic, modesty, meaning to not highlight or talk openly about your skills. This seems to be something that is similar with the Chinese people, where modesty plays a big part in daily life.It also acts as a defense of our self-esteem by playing down our skills. This can lessen the chances of people criticizing us.Another possible reason is that on average, the British people don’t take themselves too seriously. So mocking themselves is simply a healthy result of this.16.________ is a characteristic among British people.A.Self-mockery B.Laughing at othersC.Cooking D.Modesty17.The two examples in the second paragraph can be called “________”.A.overvaluation B.self-mockery C.skill D.criticism18.Every nation’s sense of humor comes from its ________.A.history B.culture C.history and culture D.economy and culture19.For Chinese people, ________is important in daily life.A.joke B.modesty C.criticism D.self-mockery20.Self-mockery can________.A.reduce our abilitiesB.make others criticize usC.lessen the chances of people criticizing usD.enhance our skillsPassage 5(2022秋·八年级校考单元测试)Friends are very important in everyone’s life because friends are always there when we need them. It’s great to have many friends, and I can’t thi nk about my life without my friends.My best friend is Lisa. When I first met her, I was five. She is one year older than me. Now she is in the same class with me, in the 7th grade. She is tall and quite thin. She has long curly blond hair and blue eyes. I am not so beautiful. Sometimes I wish I could be as beautiful as she is.My name’s Molly. I am tall enough but a little fat. Lisa and I like doing a lot of things together and talking about different things. She always helps me with my math and I sometimes help her with her English and history. I had to do a report (报告) on science once, but I didn’t understand (理解) what the teacher said. The next day, I read it in front of the class. But the teacher told me that my report was wrong and all my classmates laughed at (嘲笑)me. I felt very bad about myself. Lisa was the only one who didn’t laugh at me. She tried to be nicer than anybody else and make me happy.I am a shy person and sometimes I feel that people don’t understand me. Lisa is friendly and everybody loves her. She is also smart and she can deal with (解决)everything.

B.Friendly.C.Popular. D.Smart.25.What can we learn from the passage?A.Lisa is taller than Molly.B.Molly is more beautiful than Lisa.C.Lisa has brown hair and blue eyes.D.Molly is happy to have a friend like Lisa.Passage 6(2022秋·八年级课时练习)We know that we live in a society, so we need a lot of friends. I think that a great friend is like a great artist who can change my feeling about life greatly. When I talk about the person who influenced(影响)me most, I must think of Wang Tao. He is my unforgettable(难忘的)friend in my life. He is good at study and looks handsome.He is kind-hearted and is always ready to help others. But he doesn’t like others to praise(称赞)him, because he thinks what he did is common. There is an old saying: A friend in need is a friend indeed. Wang Tao sets a goodexample in many parts in my life.I remembered that my math was mediocre at that time, but he was excellent in math. He often got high grades, but I could only reach 70 percent. Since we talked all day long, he was kind and polite to answer my math questions. Slowly, I did well in math. Then we became friends naturally.There are two kinds of friends, good and bad. Bad friends may make our life fail while good ones make our life successful. To me, Wang Tao is a very good friend. I learned a lot from him, and I became better and better.We said goodbye three months ago. Now I miss him very much, and I hope that our friendship will keep being just as strong after we leave school.26.The writer believes that an excellent friend _______.A.is a man who is good at arts B.can change his life slowlyC.can influence his idea about life D.must think of him quickly27.Which of the following is true?A.Wang Tao will be a talented artist in the future.B.Wang Tao is very friendly and ready to help others.C.Wang Tao is interested in praising others.D.Wang Tao is good at maths and wants to be a maths teacher.A.极好的B.中等的C.有趣的D.特殊的29.What can we learn from the passage?A.All friends can help people do well in study.B.People can only make friends with kind people.C.People should change their bad friends into good friends.D.Both good friends and bad friends can influence people’s life.30.The best title of this passage is _______.A.My University Life B.An Unforgettable FriendC.How to Make Friends D.How to Learn Maths WellPassage 7(2022秋·八年级单元测试)Who is your deskmate? Do you still remember him or her? What does he or she look like? The following three31.Albert’s favorite subject is _________.A.math B.art C.P.E. D.science32._________ was born in a village in Russia.A.Mary B.Nastya C.Emma D.Lily33.Mary will go to _________ next summer.A.her hometown B.her primary school C.Green Mountains D.Nastya’s new home34.Emma is Lily’s good friend because ________.A.she is kind to Lily B.she is Lily’s second deskmateC.she is beautiful D.she is a girl with a big dream35.According to the passage, we can learn that _________.A.Albert is shorter than Jack now B.Jack wants to be a scientistC.Mary and Emma have black hair D.Lily and Nastya know each other wellPassage 8 (2022秋·八年级单元测试)The most basic and powerful way to connect(沟通)with another person is to listen. Just listen. Perhaps the most important thing we ever give each other is our full attention(注意力).When people are talking, just listen to what they’re saying. Care about it. Most of the time caring about it iseven more important than understanding it. It has taken me a long time to believe in the power of saying and meaning “I’m so sorry” when someone is sad.One of my friends told me that when she tried to tell her story, people often broke in to tell her that something similar happened to them even when she didn’t finish her words. For some reasons, her sadness became a story about them. In the end, she stopped talking to most people. We connect through listening. When we break into what someone is saying to let them know that we understand, we move the focus of attention to ourselves. When we listen, they know we care.This easy thing isn’t that easy to learn. When I was young, I thought people listened only because they were too shy to speak or did not know the answer. A loving silence(沉默)often has more power to comfort and to connect than the kindest words.36.In the writer’s eyes, the most important thing we can give people is__________.A.plenty of money B.lots of freedom C.full attention D.a smile 37.We should__________ when our friends are sad.A.share our sad stories with them B.listen to their stories and say “I’m so sorry”C.let them enjoy the silence and not talk about it D.tell them something interesting to make them happyA.打断B.拒绝C.畏惧D.同意39.What can we know from the passage?A.The only connection between people is listening.B.Caring about what people say is more important than understanding it.C.People want others to share their feeling when they are telling their stories.D.People listen because they are too shy to speak or don’t know the answer.40.What’s th e main idea of the passage?A.Being a good listener makes you a good talker.B.Listening to people isn’t something easy to learn.C.Most listeners are too shy to show themselves.D.Sometimes a loving silence does a better job than beautiful words.参考答案:1.B 2.D 3.C 4.C 5.B【导语】本文主要介绍了不同程度的害羞对人的影响,并建议读者不要害怕,不要畏惧与人沟通和展示自己,要大胆一点。

2025年中考备考专题初中英语阅读理解议论文真题精选专项训练

专题2025中考备考初中英语阅读理解议论文真题精选专项训练AWhen considering the kind of experience that makes life better, most people first think that happiness depends on experiencing pleasure: good food, good jobs, all the comforts that money can buy. If we couldn't have these, we might as well sit in front of the television on a quiet evening.Pleasure is an important part of the quality of life, but by itself it doesn't bring happiness. When people think further about what makes a worthy life, they tend (倾向于) to move beyond pleasant memories and begin to remember other events, other experiences that overlap (有重叠) pleasurable ones but fall into a group with a separate name: enjoyment. Enjoyable events take place when people have not only satisfied a need or met some earlier expectation, but also achieved something unexpected.Enjoyment is characterized by a sense of curiosity, of achievement. Playing a tennis game that improves one's ability is enjoyable, as is reading a book that shows things in a new light, as is having a conversation that leads us to express ideas we didn't know we had. None of these experiences may be especially pleasurable when they are taking place, but when we think back on them afterwards, we would say, "That really was fun" and wish they would happen again. After an enjoyable event we know that we have changed, and grown.Experiences that give pleasure can also give enjoyment, but the two feelings are quite different. For example, everybody takes pleasure in eating. However, to enjoys food is more difficult—you have to pay enough attention to a meal, so as to sense and tell its various tastes. As this example suggests, we can experience pleasure without any psychic energy, while enjoyment happens only as a result of full attention. A person can feel pleasure without any effort, as long as certain parts in his brain are stimulated (刺激). But it's impossible to enjoy a tennis game or a book without full attention. It's for this reason that pleasure does not last long, nor does it make us grow. Growth requires full attention to goals that are new, that are relatively challenging.Without enjoyment, life will go on, and it can even be pleasant. But it depends heavily on luck and the external (外部的) environment. To achieve personal control over the quality of experience, however, we need to learn how to build enjoyment into what happens day in, day out.1.You will most probably experience enjoyment when you ________.A. buy expensive shoesB. order a delicious mealC. talk with friends for new ideasD. sit quietly in front of a television2.What do you know about pleasure and enjoyment from the passage?A. Enjoyment grows out of pleasure.B. Pleasure and enjoyment come hand in hand.C. Pleasurable experiences are part of enjoyable ones.D. Some experiences provide both pleasure and enjoyment.3.The words "psychic energy" in Paragraph 4 are closest in meaning to ________.A. attentionB. interestC. abilityD. knowledge4.The writer probably agrees that ________.A. feeling pleasure stops people from achieving growthB. feeling enjoyment comes with achieving growthC. a worthy life depends on luck and environmentD. pleasure is the key to a happy and worthy lifeBComputer scientist Mary has an idea for a new robot to help her work with children. How should it look? The robot should have arms to be able to lift things. And if it is going to communicate with people, it will also need a face. Scientists believe that giving a robot a face can make it seem more friendly. Humans would also like to pay more attention to robots with faces. But what kind?For Mary, she wants to make sure that her new robot doesn’t look too much like a human. She wants people to just treat it as a machine-person. If it looks more like a human than a machine, she thinks users might find it a bit creepy and feel afraid. Mary also believes that robot faces don't need to look a lot like ours. Her research shows that we can enjoy communicating with robots whether or not they look like humans, because our brains are able to look for faces. Just put two circles on top of a robot’s body, and we will see a face.Dave feels differently. He believes that although at first we might be afraid when seeing a robot with a lifelike face, we may soon get used to it. If robots are going to work closely with humans, they should look as much like us as possible. After all, faces are an important part of the way we communicate.To make his robots look as much like real people as possible, Dave invented a special skin (皮肤) for their faces. With this skin, robots can show human-like expressions and appear to be angry, sad, happy or surprised. Dave's robots are also programmed to copy expressions. How? Just imagine his robot is looking at you. The cameras in its eyes send pictures of your face to its central computer!5.Why do scientists think a robot needs a face?A. It will become more beautiful.B. It can do better in lifting things.C. It will pay more attention to children.D. It can better communicate with people.6.What does the underlined word "creepy" mean in paragraph 2?A. Uncomfortable to look at.B. Impossible to touch.C. Boring to talk to.D. Difficult to understand.7.Which of the following would Dave most probably agree with?A. People should treat robots as humans.B. Robots need to express their own feelings.C. Robots shouldn't look too much like humans.D. People can easily accept robots with a human face.8.What is the purpose of the passage?A. To explain the reasons why robots should have faces.B. To suggest what humans can do with robots with faces.C. To share ideas on what kind of faces robots should have.D. To show how scientists invent robots with different faces.CIs fake grass better than a living grass lawnWhat do you need to know ?• Fake grass is made from different types of plastics and used in gardens as well as sportsgrounds.• More and more people are using fake grass to replace living grass lawns (草坪) and cover other outdoor spaces.• One company selling fake grass has sold 50% more compared with last year.• Some people think fake grass is bad for wildlife and the environment ,and mustn't be sold.

初二学科总结英语阅读理解20题

初二学科总结英语阅读理解20题

初二学科总结英语阅读理解20题1<背景文章>English grammar is an essential part of learning English in junior high school. It helps us understand and use the language correctly. In grade eight, we have learned many important grammar points.One of the key grammar points is tenses. We have learned the present simple tense, the present continuous tense, the past simple tense, and the future tense. These tenses help us describe actions happening at different times. For example, "I play basketball every day." uses the present simple tense to show a regular action. "I am playing basketball now." is in the present continuous tense, indicating an action happening at the moment.Another important aspect is the use of prepositions. Prepositions help us show relationships between different elements in a sentence. For example, "in the box", "on the table", and "under the bed" use different prepositions to show the location of an object.Learning grammar can be challenging, but there are some effective methods. One way is to read a lot of English books and articles. This helps us get familiar with different grammar structures in context. Another method is to practice writing sentences and short paragraphs. This allows us to apply what we have learned and get feedback from teachers orclassmates.In conclusion, grammar is crucial for mastering English. By understanding and applying grammar rules correctly, we can communicate more effectively and express our ideas clearly.1. We have learned several tenses in grade eight. Which of the following is NOT one of them?A. Present perfect tenseB. Present simple tenseC. Present continuous tenseD. Past simple tense答案:A。

八年级社会热点英语阅读理解30题

八年级社会热点英语阅读理解30题1<背景文章>In recent years, environmental protection has become one of the most crucial topics around the world. Climate change is a significant aspect that cannot be ignored. The Earth's temperature is rising steadily, which has led to numerous negative impacts. For example, the melting of polar ice caps is causing sea - level rise, threatening the existence of many coastal cities and islands.Renewable energy is playing an increasingly important role in combating climate change. Solar energy, as a clean and sustainable energy source, has been widely developed. Many countries are investing a great deal in building solar power plants. Wind energy is also a popular choice. The large - scale wind turbines can convert wind power into electricity effectively.However, there are still challenges in the development of renewable energy. One of the problems is the high cost of technology in the initial stage. For instance, the production and installation of solar panels and wind turbines require a large amount of capital investment. Another challenge is the intermittency of renewable energy sources. Solar energy depends on sunlight, and wind energy depends on wind speed, which means that theirpower generation is not stable all the time.Garbage classification is another important part of environmental protection. It can effectively recycle resources and reduce environmental pollution. By classifying garbage into different categories such as recyclables, hazardous waste, and kitchen waste, we can make better use of resources. For example, recyclable materials like plastic, paper, and metal can be recycled and reused, reducing the need for raw materials extraction. But in some areas, people are still not fully aware of the importance of garbage classification, and the infrastructure for garbage classification is not yet perfect.1. <问题1>What is one of the negative impacts of climate change according to the article?A. The decrease of polar ice caps.B. The increase of sea - level.C. The cooling of the Earth.D. The disappearance of all islands.答案:B。
