1 牛津译林版八年级下英语期末考试专题练习—阅读理解（1） Did you know that each day one person in the US throws away 4.4 pounds of rubbish? Almost every month, we throw away our own rubbish in packaging alone. Packaging ( including boxes, bags, etc) comes to our homes with the things we have bought. Several weeks ago, the TV news said that in a city in Italy, tons of rubbish were piled up in the streets, and the smell was rather terrible. What can we do to help? We should get to know the following Rs. To reduce means to make less rubbish That is one of the first things we all should do for the environment. Reduce your rubbish by doing things like packing your lunch in reusable containers(可再利用的容器)，taking smaller potions(份)at dinner so you don't waste food when you have had enough, writing on both sides of paper, and using less water when taking a shower. To reuse is to use things again. Think about the bags you get from the store. They can be reused to carry your lunch, to hold your rubbish, or to collect used cans. You can even take them back to the store the next time to carry your things instead of getting a new bag! Recycling is an important part of keeping our planet clean and green. It can also save energy. Be sure that you don't throw things in the rubbish that can be recycled to make something else. Paper, plastic, cans and bottles can all be recycled, but food, electrical waste and mobile phones can't. When you are not sure whether something can be recycled, go to your parents and teachers for advice. Follow the three Rs, and every one of us can do something to save the Earth. It is also the best way to save ourselves. ( )1. The first paragraph of the passage implies(暗示) that . A. packaging should be given up B. Italy is too dirty for us to visit C. the US produces most rubbish D. the Earth is becoming dirtier ( )2. The writer seems to ask people to reuse the bags . A. only as rubbish bags B. only for carrying other things C. mainly to have a cleaner world D. mainly to save some money ( )3. Which of the following can be recycled? A. Food and bottles. B. Books and newspapers. 2

C. Paper and mobile phones. D. Plastic and electrical waste. ( )4. The passage mainly tells us that . A. all useless things can be recycled B. the environment is greatly improving C. the three Rs can help us clean the Earth D. we should never throw any rubbish away

（2） Most people around the world are right-handed. This also seems to be true in history. In 1799, scientists studied works of art made at different times from 1,500 B.C. to the 1950s. Most of the people shown in these works are right-handed, so the scientists guessed that right-handedness has always been common through history. Today, only about 10% to 15% of the world’s population is left-handed. Why are there more right-handed people than left-handed ones? Scientists now know that a person’s two hands each have their own jobs. For most people, the hand is used to find things or hold things. The right hand is used to work with things. This is because of the different work of the two sides of the brain. The right side of the brain, which makes a person’s hands and eyes work together, controls the left hand. The left-side of the brain, which controls the right hand, is the centre for thinking and doing problems. These findings show that more artists should be left-handed, and studies have found that left-handedness is twice as common among artists as among people in other jobs. No one really knows what makes a person become right-handed instead of left-handed. Scientists have found that almost 40% of the people become left-handed because their main brain is damaged when they are born. However, this doesn’t happen to everyone, so scientists guess there must be another reason why people become left-handed. One idea is that people usually get right-handed from their parents. If a person does not receive the gene(基因) for right-handedness, he/ she may become either right-handed or left-handed according to the chance and the people 3

they work or live with. Though right-handedness is more common than left-handedness, people no longer think left-handed people are strange or unusual. A long time ago, left-handed children were made to use their right hands like other children, but today they don’t have to. ( )1. How many people in the world are left-handed now? A. Less than one sixth. B. More than a half. C. About 40% D. The passage doesn’t tell us. ( )2.Which of the following has the closest meaning to the underlined word “damaged” in this passage? A. knocked B. changed C. broke D. harmed ( )3. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true? A. No one really knows what makes a person become right-handed. B. Left-handedness is cleverer than right-handedness. C. Today children are not made to use their right hands only. D. Scientists think there must be some reason why people become left-handed. ( )4. The best title for this passage is _______. A. Scientists’ New Inventions B. Left-handed People C. Which Hand D. Different Brains, Different Hands

2020-2021学年牛津译林版英语八年级下册期末复习之--阅读理解(含答案)

牛津英语8B期末复习之阅读理解提优训练阅读理解1New data coming out recently shows that over half of Chinese students have experienced hair loss problems during their university years. According to a survey by China Youth Network, nearly 56% of respondents from 643 colleges across the country said they were experiencing hair loss.Reasons for the trouble can be many. Some doctors believed staying up late, long-time mobile phone use and to much junk food were main causes. Huge pressure from work and school could also lead to receding hairlines (后退的发际线) .Today, baldness is becoming increasingly common among university students in China. A report earlier found that 250 million Chinese were troubled by hair loss. Most of them were aged between 20 and 40. Among this population, men were160 million. That’s nearly 23 percent of Chinese men. And many of them started to deal with hair loss at 30, twenty years earlier than the generation before. “Many people around me worry about hair loss,” said a college student in Beijing. Yet she believes that many young people do not actually meet baldness. Instead, they use the words as a way to joke about their stressful lives.According to the American Hair Loss Association, going bald is now a global problem. It says that 66 percent of US people started to lose their hair before the age of 35.1.If 1000 college students are surveyed by China Youth Network, how many of them are probably having hair loss trouble?A. About 230.B. Nearly 560.C. About 660.D. Nearly 1,000.2. Each of the following is the reason for the trouble of hair loss EXCEPT ______ .A. eating too much junk foodB. having lots of work to doC. going to sleep at late nightD. traveling for too long time3. From Paragraph 3, we know ______ .A. the generation before probably experienced hair loss at the age of 40B. now most people with hair loss trouble are less than 20C. among 250 million Chinese, 90 million women are troubled by hair lossD. many young people refuse to accept their hair loss trouble4. What’s the writer’s purpose of writing the passage?A. To tell us it’s time to deal with hair loss.B. To point out there are lots of people experiencing hair loss.C. To call on the government and society to pay more attention to hair loss.D. To compare the number of the people with hair loss n China to that in the US.5. Where does the passage probably come from?A. The Internet.B. A notice.C. An advertisement.D. A poster.阅读理解2You might have heard someone use the phrase “as blind as a bat” from time to time. But in fact, many kinds of bats have very good eyesight.Besides eyes, bats also use their ears to help guide themselves when they fly in the dark. So how is it possible for bats to use their ears to help them “see”?Bats fly around hunting for insects at night. Catching flying insects in the dark is a bit challenging, but bats have developed a special way to help them get right directions and catch insects.When hunting for insects, bats use the power of echoes. They send out sounds from their mouths and noses as they fly. As those sounds bounce off objects in front of them, such as trees or insects, bats hear the echoes that return.Bats’ brains are able to find out how long it takes an echo to return. According to the time of the echo’s return, bats can tell where the object is, how big it is and what direction it’s moving in.Do you know?1. Bats are the only mammals that can fly, and they spend much of their lives hanging upside down.2. Since bats are usually only active at night, their wings and faces have long been connected with scary caves and houses. However, most kinds of bats are completely harmless to human beings.3. The brown bat is the most common kind of bat. A brown bat can eat up to 1,200 mosquitoes in an hour. A group of Mexican free-tailed bats can eat up to30,000 pounds of insects in a single night.1. In general, bats mainly find flying insects in the dark with ______ .A. their earsB. their eyesC. their wingsD. their nose2. What is the closest meaning of the underlined word “bounce” in Paragraph 4?A. hitB. returnC. goD. send3. The underlined word “it” refers to ______ in Paragraph 5.A. a batB. a bat’s brainC. the objectD. the echo4. From the passage, we can infer ______ .A. all kinds of bats may kill 1,200 mosquitoes in an hourB. there are lots of mammals that can flyC. most kinds of bats are dangerousD. bats have very clever brains5. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. The scientific knowledge about bats.B. Some misunderstandings about bats.C. Bats’ secret of hunting food and life habits.D. The reason why people use the phrase “as blind as a bat”.阅读理解3Why do so many students hate or fear math?I think this has something to do with students’ role in math classes. Students seldom think they are in the classroom to discover the beauty of math. Instead, they think they are there to perform. From an early age, students realize math is different from other subjects. In many schools, math is more about answering questions than learning.Educators know how to improve the situation. In perfect math-learning environments, students work on difficult but interesting problems. They try a new idea, fail and then try another new idea. They receive positive messages about their unlimited potential. Students with a”growth”mindset believe their ability is not”fixed”. They know failure is a natural part of learning. These students perform at higher levels in math and in life. Unluckily, most students today don’t get the chance to see math as a”growth subject”. They have to work on closed questions. There is no room for failure. Many students finally say to themselves, “I m not a math person.”And, math looks more like a speed race than any other subject. Teachers usuallytake answers from the first student who raises his or her hand. Math tests are timed. No wonder students who think slowly and deeply often hate or fear math.Schools should encourage teachers to open up math. In this way, math becomes a learning subject, instead of a performance subject. Teachers should ask questions that have many solutions. They should give students the chance to discuss different ideas. They should also encourage students to ask questions that have never been asked.When teachers set students free, the beauty of math follows. More children will fall in love with this subject.1. The writer thinks many students hate or fear math because ______ .A. most math questions aren’t allowed to askB. the math textbooks in school are too difficultC. their teachers don’t understand the beauty of mathD. slow and deep thinking isn’t encouraged in math classes2. Students who perform at higher levels in math are those who ______ .A. think slowly and deeplyB. are the first to put up their hands in classC. have realized they have unlimited potential in mathD. can see the differences between math and other subjects3. In the writer’s opinion, math teachers should ______ .A. ask questions that only have one solutionB. help their students solve difficult questionsC. let their students see their potential in mathD. encourage their students to find out different solutions4. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Most children are born to fear math.B. Educators know how to help students love math.C. A good math question shouldn’t have only one solution.D. Difficult questions can help students become interested in math.阅读理解4In the United States, one name is closely connected with movies. What is it? Hollywood, of course! But have you ever heard of the name Bollywood?Bollywood is the Indian Hindi-language film industry based in Mumbai. It is also known as Hindi Cinema. The name “Bollywood” is clearly a play on the word “Hollywood”. The “B” comes from the Indian city of Bombay, which is now called Mumbai.The word “Bollywood” is often incorrectly used to mean the whole of Indian cinema. However, Bollywood is only a part of Indian cinema, which also includes several other production centers. These centers produce films in many different languages.The name Bollywood became popular in the 1970s. But Indian filmmaking began long before that. Today, people think of Bollywood as a style of film. When they hear the name, they think of movies that feature exotic musical numbers.Modern Bollywood films are called “masala films”. Masala is a Hindi word that means “spice mixture”. Masala films freely mix action, comedy, romance, drama, melodrama, etc. , along with musical numbers.The movie industry is one of India’s most profitable industries. In fact, Bollywood has surpassed Hollywood in terms of both the number of films made each year and ticket sales.1. The passage leads to the topic by ______ .A. giving some examplesB. asking some questionsC. showing some opinionsD. making some comparisons2. The Hindi movie industry mainly takes place in the Indian city of ______ .A. HollywoodB. BollywoodC. MumbaiD. Masala3. What can we infer about Indian movies from the passage?A. The music is very special.B. The stories are interesting.C. The performers are popular.D. The prices of tickets are low.4. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Indian filmmaking began in the 1970s.B. Indian cinema is also referred to as Bollywood.C. Bollywood has surpassed Hollywood in every field.D. Masala films mix different types of films with musical numbers.5. What’s the best title for the passage?A. Something about BollywoodB. The history of Indian moviesC. Bollywood and HollywoodD.

He founded the tech company Alibaba, which has changed the way Chinese people shop.In 1995, when Ma Yun first saw his American friend’s computer, he was scared. “Jack, it’s not a bomb. Just touch whatever you want,” his friend said to him. Years later, Ma’s tech company Alibaba is the king of China’s e-commerce (电子商务) industry.Ma has come along way from his rots in Hangzhou. As an English teacher at a local college, he went to the United States in 1995 and got his first taste of the Internet.Upon his return, Ma set up China Pages, the country’s first commercial website. In 1999, Ma and his friends set up Alibaba. Today, Alibaba’s online sales and income are higher than all US retailers.The 55-year-old businessman has become a symbol of China’s entry into the digital age;Time magazine noted.

Britons have been worried about the problem in the past few months.Two reasons lie behind the future water shortages. The first one is population growth. It is predicted that the population of the UK will have increased to 75 million by 2050. This will certainly cause stress on resources such as water and energy. On average, a person uses 150 liters of water a day. Much of this is water wastage. It is common to see people leave the tap (水龙头) running while brushing their teeth. The other reason is climate change. The UK might get hotter and drier in the near future. This could reduce water supplies by 10 to 15 percent and then cause drought across the country.Charities said that we could all reduce our daily water usage to 100 liters every day. Suggestions include taking shorter showers and choosing a well-used flush toilet. However, what a person can do is limited.Perhaps many Britons have forgotten the days when water was scarce. “I remember the 1976 drought,” says Adrian Butler, a senior teacher at Imperial College London. ”Many people, thankfully, have no idea of having to get your water from a standpipe in the street. But once you’ve been through that, you will realize water is really valuable. It is something that we have a collective responsibility for.” We can all take care to avoid wasting water.1. When will the UK probably face serious water shortages?A. In about 20 years.B. By the year 2050.C. In 100 years.D. In 2020.2. What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?A. How the growth of population will affect water supplies.B. How climate change will cause drought all over the UK.C. Why it is difficult for Britons to save water every day.D. Why the UK will not have enough water in 25 years.3. The underlined word “scarce” probably means “ ______ ” in the last paragraph.A. dirtyB. clean C valuable D. expensive4. According to the passage, which of the following is RIGHT about saving water?A. We needn’t take a long shower.B. We can’t brush our teeth every day.C. It’s boring to introduce standpipe systems.D. It’s a waste of money to choose flush toilets.5. We can infer ______ from the passage.A. Britons are not satisfied with the standpipe in the UKB. Adrian Butler clearly remembers the 1976 drought in the UKC. James Bevan is confident about solving the water shortages in the UKD. the British government hasn’t taken action to deal with water shortages in the UK阅读理解9Have you heard of parallel universes? Some scientists believe that there might be other universes right alongside ours. Our universe may be just a part of a tree of universes that are all there at the same time—only in different states of time with different pasts and different futures.What does this mean?It means there is a different”you”in these parallel universes. You might be a Hollywood star in one of them!In parallel universes, there may be completely different physical laws. World wars might have different results. Really, humans themselves might have become extinct in certain parallel universes!The idea of parallel universes dates back to 1954. Hugh Everett ①, a Princeton University student in the United States, developed the idea that parallel universes—exactly like and related to our universe—are there. However, many physicists and astronomers say that this theory can’t be tested, so it’s not really a theory at all.But since then, the idea has shown up in comic books, television and movies. Shows like Star Trek and Doctor Who use the idea to develop their stories.Parallel universes might not only be there in the movies. If their stories are true, some people might have already experienced other realities.First covered by newspapers in 1952, Cornelio Closa, a schoolboy from the Philippines, kept disappearing right in front of his friends and family. Sometimes disappearing for days, he would somehow disappear from his locked family home and crowded school classroom.While such stories may sound crazy, even the known universe is far older and larger than we are. So, who’s to say that one day we won’t learn to cross dimensions?1. What are parallel universes?A. Everyone lives in two universes.B. Other universes are right beside ours.C. They are past universes and future universes.D. Different countries are different universes.2. The idea of parallel universes was thought up by ______ .A. a physicistB. an astronomerC. a Hollywood starD. a university student3. After the idea of parallel universes started to appear, ______ .A. it was thought to be a theoryB. it showed up in comic bookC. it was experienced by some peopleD. it was considered to cause humans to die out4. Cornelio Closa’s story tells us parallel universes ______ .A. are really thereB. will be our homeC. have killed some peopleD. can make a person disappear5. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. The idea of parallel universes appeared a century ago.B. Star Trek and Doctor Who is a book about parallel universes.C. You may see another”you”in parallel universes.D. We will travel to another parallel universe.阅读理解10Who is the oldest man in the world? Where is the world’s highest waterfall? To find the answers, you can check the Guinness Book of World Records.The idea of the book came from a British man named Sir Hugh Beaver. He and his friends once argued about which European game bird was the fastest. They failed to find the answer in any book. Later, the twins Norris and Ross McWhirter were invited to write a book of facts and figures. It was called Guinness Book of World Records. Neither of them knew that the book would become an all-time bestseller.Since it fist came out in 1955, more than 100 million copies of the book have been sold in almost 40 languages, and a new edition comes out every year.Many people have tried to get into the book. There are over 50,000 applications from about 174 countries every year, according to the Guinness organization.Anyone who thinks he or she has a very special skill or talent can apply for aGuinness record. After that, Guinness judges will evaluate their application. After many rounds of research and check, they will finally send them an official Guinness World Records certificate!The person who holds the most Guinness records is Ashrita Furman from the US. Furman has held nearly 131 records, including the record for holding the most Guinness records.But there are some records that Guinness won’t accept. For example, they do not accept any activity that could harm people or animals.1. We know “______”about the Guinness Book of World Records.A. its first edition came out 65 years agoB. its writer is Sir Hugh Beaver from BritainC. over 50, 000 records get into the book every yearD. i came out because of an argument between a pair of twins2.

Why there is a certificate in the Guinness records.3. The person who holds the most Guinness records comes from ______ .A China B. Britain C. America D. Russia4. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. The Guinness Book of World Records.B. The first Guinness Book of World Records.C. The greatest human achievements since 1955.D. The person who holds the most Guinness World Records.阅读理解11Do you take your own shopping bag with you when you go shopping? Most people don’t. It’s easier to just ask for a plastic bag when you’re checking out. But the truth is that most of these bags will end up in the ocean, killing wildlife and even ending up in the seafood that we eat.Plastic pollution has become a major problem around the world. China creates about 59 million tons of plastic waste each year, while the US creates about 37 million tons, according to a 2018 scientific report.But two sisters from Bali are doing their part to stop this from happening. They started a global campaign called Bye Bye Plastic Bags (BBPB) . Its members encourage people to use fewer plastic bags. They also advise local leaders in their area to ban the bags.Melati Wijsen, 17, and her sister Isabel, 15, started BBPB in 2013 after learning about great leaders like Nelson Mandela and Lady Diana in school. They asked themselves, “What can we do as children living in Bali, now, to make a difference?”The Wijsen sisters have spoken to 20,000young people about the dangers of plastic. They also created two educational booklets for primary schools in Indonesia.They are crazy about their work, especially when it comes to protecting Bali. Their hard work pushed officials in Bali to make the island refuse plastic bags by 2018.The sisters have no plans to stop any time soon. Though they know there will bedifficulties along the way, they think their hard work will pay off. “Were not telling you it’s going to be easy. We’re telling you it’ going to be worth it,” Isabel said.1. What does the first paragraph talk about?A. How to go shopping.B. The dangers of plastic bags.C. The bad condition of the ocean.D.

The Wijsen sisters started BBPB because ______ .A. they want to make more moneyB. they want people to use fewer plastic bagsC. they want people to pick up the plastic bags in the oceanD. they want to encourage local leaders to produce better plastic bags3.

It encourages us to work hard.Yang Aixuan, 15I will design a badge for my school. I want the school badge to be green and white. These are the colors of our classroom buildings.

The shirt can be red, like our love for sports. The front of the T-shirt can be printed with different images. For example, it can show soccer players scoring a goal or runners sweating.

867y312aQAZedzxxbm Subject: Bonjour! Bonjour! (That means hello in French.) We hope you all had a great summer. Ours was a lot of fun. We have seen so many new things and met so many wonderful people. The French gave us a warm welcome and helped us get used to living here soon. We have so many things to share with all of you. We are going to send you more emails, but here are the best parts of our holiday in France so far. We had a fantastic time seeing the Tour de France this summer. It is the most famous bicycle race in the world. The riders travel more than two thousand miles in about a month! We got a quick look at the riders as they rode past! A few of you asked whether the French really eat snails(蜗牛). The answer is yes. We went out to dinner the other day, and our parents ordered some. We each tried one and it didn’t taste too bad. They don’t really have much taste. Mum’s favourite food here is the French pastries. Dad loves the red wine. Our favourite is the fresh bread from the shop down the street. We went to visit the Eiffel Tower a few weeks ago. We went all the way to the top. It was a sunny day, so we could see for miles and miles into the distance. Dad doesn’t like heights, so he stayed at the bottom of the tower and took pictures from the ground. We miss all of you a lot. Write back to us and let us know what is new at home. Au revoir! (Can you guess what that means in French?) Wendy and Jack Brown 46.What do the Browns think of French people? A. Friendly. B. Funny. C. Welcome. D.
