2020-2021学年牛津译林版八年级下学期 Unit 1 Past and present 训练
牛津英语译林版8下Unit 1 Past and present 短文理解提优训练一、阅读理解AThe world itself is becoming much smaller by using modern traffic and modern communication means (通讯设备) . Life today is much easier than it was hundreds of years ago, but it has brought new problems. One of the biggest is pollution. To pollute means to make things dirty. Pollution comes in many ways, We see it, smell it, drink it and even hear it.Man has been polluting the earth. The more people, the more pollution. Many years ago, the problem was not so serious because there were not so many people. When the land was used up or the river was dirty in one place, Man moved to another place. But this is no longer true. Man is now slowly polluting the whole world.Air pollution is still the most serious. It’s bad for all living things in the world, but it is not the only one kind of pollution. Water pollution kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us angry more easily.Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. They stop people from burning coal (煤) in houses and factories in the city, and from putting dirty smoke into the air.Pollution by SO2 is now the most dangerous kind of air pollution. It is caused by heavy traffic. It is sure that if there are fewer people driving, there will be less air pollution.The earth is our home. We must take care of it. That means keeping the land, water and air clean. And we must take care of the rise in population (人口) at the same time.1. Hundreds of years ago, life was ______ it is today.A. much easier thanB. as easy asC. as hard asD. much harder than2. Our world is becoming much smaller ______ .A. because the world is being polluted slowlyB. thanks to science and technology developmentC. because of the rise in populationD. because the earth is blown away by the wind every year3. Air pollution is the most serious kind of pollution because ______ .A. it does bad to all living things in the worldB. it makes much noiseC. it makes our rivers and lakes dirtyD. it makes us angry more easily4. Which of the following is NOT the possible way to reduce air pollution?A. Stop people from burning coal in the houses and factories in the city.B. Stop putting dirty smoke into the air.C. Encourage people to go to work by bike or on foot instead of driving a car.D. Don’t throw rubbish into the river.5. Which of the following is NOT true?A. Many countries are taking actions to fight pollution.B. The pollution of the earth grows as fast as the world’s population does.C. The problem of pollution isn’t so serious because there are not so many people living on the earth.D. If people go to work by bus or bike instead of driving a car, it will be helpful in fighting against the problem of SO2 .BA few years ago, I went through a time of such serious depression (抑郁) that life didn’t seem worth living. It was like always being in winter, so icy and cold that the sun would never shine. Then, I saw green shoots (幼芽) pushing through the freezing (冰冷的) , iron-hard ground. I looked at them every day until I felt that if they could come back to life, then so could I.Those green shoots gave me hope in a way that nothing else did. They made me keep going, even when times were hard and I wanted to give up.As spring came, I started to put in more and more plants until my garden was filled with color. Life was growing through my hands—gentle, peaceful, but, above all optimistic (乐观的) . If I gave love, it was returned, even more than it was worth. I watched my garden grow bigger and bigger.I could spend hours lost in gardening. The form of depressive illness I have is biological. It has affected (影响) generations of my family and follows no rules or reasons. I can be depressed when the sun is shining or when I am with a group of loving friends.Of course, fresh air and exercise help to reduce depression, but for me, gardening is more than that. It stands for endurance (忍耐力) , as well as hope.At the end of the first gardening season, I stood before a tree, huge and strong. It lived through freezing temperatures andstrong winds. It bent, but never broke. Its leaves dropped until it looked like nothing more than a skeleton (骨架) , but it always, always came back to life. And so I learned that although we might face many challenges (挑战) , hope can help us get through them.1. What made the writer keep going?A. Fresh air and exercise.B. A freezing world that the sun never shines in.C. Green shoots pushing through cold ground.D. A tree that would never come back to life.2. What did the writer gain from gardening?A. An optimistic attitude toward life.B. A brand-new garden filled with colors.C. Plants growing gently and peacefully.D. The main reasons for her depression.3. What does the underlined word "It" in Paragraph 1 refer to?A. Winter.B. Life.C. Sunshine.D. Depression.4. What can we learn from this passage?A. Nature can help us treat depression.B. We should live with hope when facing challenges.C. Gardening improves our endurance.D. Warm sunshine can keep people healthy.CMuseums have changed. They are no longer places that one "should" go but enjoy.At a science museum in Canada, you can feel your hair stand on end as harmless electricity (电流) passes through your body. At the Children’s Museum in New York, you can play an African drum (鼓) . There are no "Do Not Touch" signs in some other museums in the USA.More and more museum directors have realized that people learn best when they can become part of what they are seeing. In many science museums, the visitors are encouraged to touch, listen, operate and experiment so as to discover scientific rules for themselves.The purpose is not only to provide fun, but also to help people feel at home in the world of science. If people don’t understand science, they will be afraid of it, and if they are afraid of science, they will not make the best use of it.One cause of all these changes is the increase in wealth and spare time. Another cause is the growing number of young people in the population (人口) . Many of them are college students or college graduates (毕业生) . They see things in a new and different way. They want art that they can take part in. The same is true of science and history.The old museums have been changing and the government is encouraging the building of new, modern museums. In the United States and Canada, there are more than 6, 000 museums, almost twice as many as there were 25 years ago.1. The directors of the museums have realized ______ .A. people learn best when they look at somethingB. visitors prefer to learn from museumsC. people are interested if they take partD. the importance of scientific rules2. Why has the growing population of young people caused the changes in museums?A. Because they are stronger.B. Because they have less spare time.C. Because they are better educated.D. Because there are more young people.3. What is the main advantage of the new museums?A. Visitors can experience themselves.B. Visitors can watch more carefully.C. Visitors can stay there free.D. Visitors can rest everywhere.4. What’s the best title of the passage?A. The science museum in CanadaB. The changes of the museumsC. The causes of all these changes in museumsD. The old museumsDSome people have to use public transport; some dislike it and still some love it. If everyone has a car and drives anywhere they want to go,there will be serious traffic problems on the road. Luckily,trains are a good form of public transport.British people use trains a lot.This is especially so for people who are travelling from London to Paris. Every day about 20 trains leave London. They travel at a very high speed and people feel glad that the trains take only 2 hours and 30 minutes to reach Paris. It's much faster to travel by train than by bus or by car. This is because people have to drive cars or buses very carefully and slowly for many reasons,such as speed limits and traffic jams. However,when you are travelling by train,the speed is almost the same and there is no traffic jam for a train.Besides,Londoners think taking a train is one of the safest ways of travelling on the ground.Trains take quite a number ofquality tests while they are made. More importantly, they have to take many safety checks before they are used on the rail track.What’s more, trains in Britain are comfortable and provide fine services (服务) for their users. When you are on a London train, you will find that the train has comfortable tables and seats where people can sit. They also provide food services and power plugs (电源插头) for personal computers or mobile phones.1. The main idea of the passage is that ______ .A. British people enjoy public transportB. it’s fast to travel from London to ParisC. trains in Britain provide fine services for their usersD. trains are a good form of public transport for Londoners2. In a traffic jam on the road, ______ .A. drivers can drive fastB. drivers can drive carelesslyC. cars are not moving fastD. cars will stop working3. The 3rd paragraph of the passage mainly talks about the ______ of trains.A. speedB. safetyC. servicesD. problems4. Londoners often travel by train because trains are ______ .A. old and slowB. large, clean and powerfulC. fine and importantD. fast, safe and comfortable5. What can we know from the passage?A. We can travel from London to Paris in less than 2 hours.B. We can do our work with personal computers on the train.C. We have to wait till we get off the train in order to have some food.D. The trains are only checked for quality reasons before they are used.EGandhi once said, "You must be the change you wish to see in the world. "I have always thought about this quote (引文) and asked myself what I could do to make a change.Since I am a junior in high school, poor and homeless people have inspired me to help improve their lives. I enjoyed painting, and have been doing so for five years. But what could I do with my creative (创新的) skills to change the world? I decided to take part in an autumn craft (手工) festival selling my handmade and painted cards. However, there was still a piece missing in the puzzle—something just didn’t feel right. I don’t know what I could do to "be the change".Then one sunny day, I thought of an idea: I would send my handmade and painted cards to organizations (组织) across the world that help kids who may be suffering from poverty (贫穷) , or difficult situations. I call my project"Cards for Kids". Since it began in November 2009, over 700 special message cards have been sent out to kids in the United States and some countries in Africa, such as Tanzania. Although (尽管) this project takes much time, it makes me feel good to put a smile on a poor or homeless child’s face when he or she is going through (经历) a tough time.At present, I am writing to such organizations as The World Orphan Project, as well as many children’s shelters (收容所) and hospitals. As the project moves on, I hope to send out even more cards. I have been learning throughout the course of this project that everyone has a chance to be the change, make the change, and begin the change.1. The author took part in the autumn craft festival because ______ .A. he liked painting cardsB. he wanted to learn how to make painted cardsC. it was so much fun on the festivalD. he hoped to improve people’s lives with his painting skills2.

The author still didn’t know how to change the world.D. The author wanted to change his painting styles.3. Which of the following is NOT true about the project "Cards for Kids"?A. Hundreds of message cards were sent out to poor kids around the world.B. The author has spent lots of time on the project.C. More cards would be sent out in the future.D. The author started the project in November 2009.4. The underlined word"tough"in Paragraph 3 probably means ______ .A. happyB. hardC. longD. hopeful5. What’s the best title for the passage?A. How to Set up an ProjectB. Being the Change Through Card ArtC. Making Creative Homemade CardsD. Improving the Life of Yourself二、完形填空AZheguyuan is a small village in the southwest of China.

In the past 25 years I have lived in a Qing-period courtyard house, which was once the home of Manchurian banner (满州旗) men. In the winter months, the dry and sandy Mongolian winds cut through the narrow hutongs outside, which form a labyrinth (迷宫) in the centre of Beijing.These hutongs were born in the period of Yuan Dynasty of Emperor (皇帝) Kublai Khan, who decided to make Beijing the site of his new capital. Then workers came to build a white Buddhist tower that stood as the rising symbol (标志) of this new capital.During the Ming Dynasty there were at least three Buddhist temples built in this hutong where I live. Workers from Huairen County in Shanxi Province came to build the Forbidden City as it stands today, the parks and palaces that becameBeijing as we know it. They brought with them their famous scholar trees (槐树) from Shanxi, planting them along the hutong for shade.During the Qing Dynasty, this hutong became home of the White Banners. After 1911 Revolution (革命) of Dr Sun Yat-sen, years of war damaged (破坏) many of these hutongs seriously.Now, the gray brick walls and old lion stones at the gates of these courtyard houses are the witnesses (见证) to the pastWho is Li Ziqi? For 7 million YouTube viewers and 20 million Weibo users, that’s an easy question to answer. These days, the 29-year-old vlogger’s (博主) videos about her country life went viral (走红) . Her fans call her "the goddess of nature".She is worthy of this title. In her videos, she is a master of many kinds of skills such as cooking, painting, designing and farming. Li wears hanfu that she made herself. She also feeds silkworms in order to make quilts. Li grows plants as well. She is often seen preparing meals with vegetables picked from her backyard, She eats a seasonal diet.Li grew up with her grandparents in a small village in Sichuan Province. When she was 14, she went to the city to work, but returned to the countryside in 2012 to take care of her sick grandmother.To make a living, Li runs an online store. At first, she just used her videos to make people know about her products. But the simple pleasure she showed quickly won her many fans around the world. For her foreign fans, what is even more interesting is Li’s deep knowledge of food, nature and Chinese culture. "I can see how good Chinese people are at cooking! I never thought of preserving (保存) meat like that!" one foreign fan wrote on YouTube.As China Daily said, Li shows the world that Chinese people love good food and are good at making art out of theBecause of the outbreak of the novel coronavirus pneumonia, many people wear masks to protect themselves. It’s a very simple but useful method to protect oneself from the harmful things. In fact, masks have been helping us for centuries. Let’s take a look at some mask-related history.1st centuryAt that time, many people in Roman Empire worked underground in mines to support their families. But most of them suffered from and even died of serious illnesses. To solve this problem, Pliny the Elder(23—79AD) , recommended the use of animal skins. And it helped stop the dust from being breathed.16th centuryMany centuries later, the artist and inventor Leonardo da Vinci(1452-1519) in Italy, suggested using a wet cloth over the face to protect against the harmful things.19th centuryThe design of the mask took a big step forward in the 19th century. In 1848, American Lewis Hassley became the first person to patent (注册专利) a protective mask for miners. Later, in 1897, Polish-Austrian doctor Johann von Mikulicz-Radecki designed a simple mask, which was the first to use in hospital.20th centuryIn 1910, a Chinese doctor Wu Liande designed a cheap face mask called "Wu’s mask". People around the world all liked this mask, as it was simple to make and had a low cost.Modern explorationWith several outbreaks of the diseases and the flu, and the rise of pollution caused by industrial waste, the materials in masks are better than before to protect its wearer. In the future, masks will continue to improve, hopefully so will the habits of四、阅读短文, 回答下列问题AMrs Cooper is over 90, but she can still play a game of Words with Friends, a popular puzzle game app, on her iPad.

Now the high-speed railways have connected eastern China as well as the south and the north.A new high-speed railway opened on Sept. 10th, 2016. It connects Zhengzhou with Xuzhou. With this railway, China’s high-speed railways are over 20, 000 kilometres long. It is the world’s longest railway and makes up 60 percent of the world’s total high-speed railway lines.Besides length, China also does better in speed. China is the only country with trains running at 350 kilometres an hour, such as the Beijing—Tianjin and Beijing—Shanghai high-speed railways.With these surprising numbers, it is easy to forget that China wasn’t the first in the high-speed rail game. Japan started 50 years ago, while Germany did 20 years ago. China only began to build its high-speed railways 14 years ago.Behind the fast development, there is the country’s growing need for transportation. China’s high-speed trains gave 961 million trips to people last year. It was three times more than in 2010. The high- speed railways not only bridge the distance, but connect people, information and goods. China’s building of high-speed railways is still going on.阅读短文, 回答下列问题。
