Millions of trees are being cut down to make paper . If everyone uses a little paper carelessly and throws it out , soon we would not have any trees left . Other things are also being wasted , and people don’t know what to do with the waste in big cities . So it is necessary to reduce the waste .2. ReuseYou should always think of reusing the usable things before throwing them out . Give your clothes you do not use or the ones which are too small to the poor . Within a family , you may pass on such clothes to younger brothers or sisters .3.RecycleBottles , cans and paper can easily be recycled . By doing so we save lots of time and money . For example , coke cans are sent to a factory , where they are smashed flat and melted and the metal things are made for new coke cans .4.RecoverWhen you buy a box of apples , there may be a few rotten apples , you have two choices: one is to throw the whole apples away , or you could cut off the rotten parts and use the good parts . In this way , you recover the eatable parts of food .5.RepairIf one of the legs of your table is broken , you can repair it instead of throwing the table away . If you want to change for better ones , it is better for you to sell the old things or give them to other people who can use them after doing some repair . It is true that North America is a “throw-aw ay” society , but the time has come to change our way of life so that we can protect our environment .

牛津英语上海版初二阅读理解练习第一篇:牛津英语上海版初二阅读理解练习Years ago, I lived in a building in a large city.The building next door was only a few feet away from mine.There was a woman who lived there, whom I had never met, yet I could see her seated by her window each afternoon, sewing or reading.After several months had gone by, I began to notice that her window was dirty.Everything was unclear through the dirty window.I would say to myself, “I wonder why th at woman doesn't wash her window.It really looks terrible.”One bright morning I decided to clean my flat, including washing the window on the te in the afternoon when I finished the cleaning, I sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for a rest.What a surprise!Across the way, the woman sitting by her window was clearly visible.Her window was clean!Then it dawned on me.I had been criticizing(批评)her dirty window, but all the time I was watching hers through my own dirty window.That was quite an important lesson for me.How often had I looked at and criticized others through the dirty window of my heart, through my own shortcomings?Since then, whenever I wanted to judge(评判)someone, I asked myself first, “Am I looking at him through my own dirty w indow?”Then I try to clean the window of my own world so that I may see the world about me more clearly.76.The writer couldn't see everything clearly through the window because_____.A.the woman's window was dirtyB.the writer's window was dirtyC.the woman lived nearbyD.the writer was near-sighted77.The writer was surprised that_____.A.the woman was sitting by her windowB.the woman's

passage, we can learn ______.A.one shouldn't criticize others very oftenB.one should often make his windows cleanC.one must judge himself before he judges othersD.one must look at others through his dirty windowsPalaeontologists can tell much about how a dinosaur lived from the shape of its teeth or its beak, if it had no front teeth.Giraffes’ teeth are different from zebras’ teeth because giraffes eat tender leaves from the top of trees, white zebras eat tough, dry grass.In the same way, different families of dinosaurs evolved different kinds of teeth and beaks to cope with a variety of plants.Protoceratops, one of the smaller horned dinosaurs, had a parrot-like beak for shearing off plant stems, and scissor-like teeth to slice up its food.Camarasaurus, an 18-m(59-ft)longsauropod, had spoon-like cutting but no grinding teeth.However, it could reach high into trees to tear away leave.Corythosaurus, a duckbill, tore off leaves with its horny beak, stored them in its cheek pouches, then used rows of strong interlocking teeth to grind them.Plateosaurus, an early, long-necked giant, had leaf-shaped teeth to pluck off the leaves of soft plants such as ferns.It did not have grinding teeth.Iguanodon browsed on tough plants such as horsetails, and used its horny beak to nip off leaves.Its rows of ridged, grinding teeth crushed the leaves into a pulp.STRANGE BUT TRUE Heterodontosaurus, a plant eater from the early Jurassic Period had three kinds of teeth;on the lower jaw it had a horny beak.Then it had two pairs of large, fang-like teeth, with grinding teeth at the back.33.A palaeontologist is a person who studies __________.A.teeth B.giraffes and zebras C.animal eating habits D.life in the distant past35.The Heterodontosaurus is unusual because

dinosaurs livedC.the type of plants dinosaurs ateD.when dinosaurs died outDear Sir, I am writing to make a strong complaint about the impolite treatment my guests, my colleague and I received when we visited your restaurant last Friday evening.On booking a table for four by telephone on Tuesday we were assured that there would be room for us despite the fact that your restaurant had been open only for a few weeks and all the tables had already been booked.We appreciate that there must be great demand for restaurant meals at this time of the year in such a popular and historic area but we were not expecting such an ill-mannered reception on the part of your head waiter.Our Chinese friends are currently touring the ‘Shakespeare Country’ and were looking forward to a traditional English dinner in such a charming setting.But our hopes for an enjoyable evening out were instantly spoilt when your head waiter informed us that he had received no booking in our name and, so, no table was reserved for our party.My colleague and I protested at this and asked to speak to the Manager, who, we were told, was unavailable.Your staff then offered us a table which we all had to share with another couple and no effort was made to smooth over the unpleasantness we had experienced.We also had to wait for some considerable time before the menu was brought to us.I trust you will give this complaint your prompt attention as the whole embarrassing incident was a great disappointment to our guests and set a bad example to our English hospitality.Yours sincerely, Mr Paul J.Weller42.Mr

restaurant being closed D.will cause the quick dismissal of the head waiterHappiness is for everyone.You don't need to care about those people who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of money and so on.Why? Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads at their free time.In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it.When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you;when you study hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health;when you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you;when you do something worng, people around you will help you to correct it.And when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too.All these are your happiness.If you notice them, you can see that happiness is always around you.Happiness is not the same as money.It is a feeling of your heart.When you are poor, you can also say you are very happy, because you have something else that can't be bought with money.When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge yourself.So you cannot always say you are poor and you have bad luck.As the saying goes, life is like a revolving(旋转)door..When it closes, it also opens.If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person.91.Happiness is for_________.A.those who have large and beautiful houses B.thosewho have cars C.those who have a lot of money D.all people92.When you do something wrong,.A.people around you will help you B.you will have no chance to challenge yourself C.your classmates will laugh at you D.you will be happy93.Which is true according to the passage?.A.When you get success, your friends will be very proud of you.B.You can get help from others when you make mistakes.C.You can still be a happy person even if you have little money.D.All the above.94.Why do we say “Happiness is not the same as money”?

He called the other fishes together and said, “Did you hear what the fishermen said? We4 leave this pond at once. The fishermen5 tomorrow and kill us all!”The second of the three fishes agreed. “You are right,” he said, “We must leave the pond.”6 the youngest fish laughed. “You are worrying without reason,” he said. “We have lived in this pond all7 lives, and no fisherman has ever come here.

They are not able to talk about what they feel until the age of 12. A Feelings Chart can help children find what they are feeling.A Feeling Chart shows the different feelings a child might have during the day. How could you make a Feelings Chart? First, parents need to talk with children about what kinds of feelings should be on the chart. Next, parents or children can draw colorful faces on a big piece of paper. Then they write words next to the faces to describe them. After completing the chart, put it up on the wall.Most parents find it good to talk with children about their feelings before bedtime. It doesn’t matter how many faces children choose to describe their feelings. The key is that the chart will help children learn to express their feelings with words. Tim, a five-year-old boy, described his feelings by “I am really angry about that” when another two boys laughed at him. Judy, asix-year-old girl, said “That made me very excited!” about one of her birthday presents. On the other side, parents should encourage children to describe their feelings by asking them questions like “Can you tell me how you felt at that time?” or “How do you feel, happy, excited, angry or sad?”( )21. Most children can’t talk about their feelings until they are ____ years old.A. 9.B. 10.C. 11.D. 12.( )22.

Some of these rooms are used like rooms in our own homes. Prairie-dog towns have bedrooms, children’s rooms, bathrooms, and rooms for keeping food.Prairie dogs are social animals.

牛津英语上海版-初二阅读理解练习

Years ago, I lived in a building in a large city. The building next door was only a few feet away from mine. There was a woman who lived there, whom I had never met, yet I could see her seated by her window each afternoon, sewing or reading.After several months had gone by, I began to notice that her window was dirty. Everything was unclear through the dirty window. I would say to myself, "I wonder why that woman doesn't wash her window. It really looks terrible."One bright morning I decided to clean my flat, including washing the window on the inside.Late in the afternoon when I finished the cleaning, I sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for a rest. What a surprise! Across the way, the woman sitting by her window was clearly visible. Her window was clean!Then it dawned on me. I had been criticizing (批评) her dirty window, but all the time I was watching hers through my own dirty window.That was quite an important lesson for me. How often had I looked at and criticized others through the dirty window of my heart, through my own shortcomings?Since then, whenever I wanted to judge (评判) someone, I asked myself first, "Am I looking at him through my own dirty window?"Then I try to clean the window of my own world so that I may see the world about me more clearly.76. The writer couldn't see everything clearly through the window because_____.A. the woman's window was dirtyB. the writer's window was dirtyC. the woman lived nearbyD. the writer was near-sighted77.

Giraffes’teeth are different from zebras’teeth because giraffes eat tender leaves from the top of trees, white zebras eat tough, dry grass. In the same way, different families of dinosaurs evolved different kinds of teeth and beaks to cope with a variety of plants. Protoceratops, one of the smaller horned dinosaurs, had a parrot-like beak for shearing off plant stems, and scissor-like teeth to slice up its food.Camarasaurus, an 18-m (59-ft) long sauropod, had spoon-like cutting but no grinding teeth. However, it could reach high into trees to tear away leave.Corythosaurus, a duckbill, tore off leaves with its horny beak, stored them in its cheek pouches, then used rows of strong interlocking teeth to grind them.Plateosaurus, an early, long-necked giant, had leaf-shaped teeth to pluck off the leaves of soft plants such as ferns. It did not have grinding teeth.Iguanodon browsed on tough plants such as horsetails, and used its horny beak to nip off leaves. Its rows of ridged, grinding teeth crushed the leaves into a pulp.STRANGE BUT TRUEHeterodontosaurus, a plant eater from the early Jurassic Period had three kinds of teeth; on the lower jaw it had a horny beak. Then it had two pairs of large, fang-like teeth, with grinding teeth at the back.33. A palaeontologist is a person who studies __________.A. teethB. giraffes and zebrasC. animal eating habitsD. life in the distant past35. The Heterodontosaurus is unusual because __________.A. it had a beak and teethB. it had three kinds of teethC. lived in the early Jurassic PeriodD. the beak was made of horny material36. A dinosaur that did NOT have grinding teeth was the __________.A. HeterdontosaurusB. PlateosaurusC. CorythosaurusD. Iguanodon37. One difference between the Corythosaurus and the Iguanodon was ____.A. that Iguanodon could grind up its foodB. the way they took leaves from plantsC. that Corythosaurus had a beakD. the Period in which they lived38. From the study of teeth palaeontologists can tell __________.A. how long each dinosaur livedB. in which Period dinosaurs livedC. the type of plants dinosaurs ateD. when dinosaurs died outDear Sir,I am writing to make a strong complaint about the impolite treatment my guests, my colleague and I received when we visited your restaurant last Friday evening.On booking a table for four by telephone on Tuesday we were assured that there would be room for us despite the fact that your restaurant had been open only for a few weeks and all the tables had already been booked.We appreciate that there must be great demand for restaurant meals at this time of the year in such a popular and historic area but we were not expecting such an ill-mannered reception on the part of your head waiter.Our Chinese friends are currently touring the ‘Shakespeare Country’and were looking forward to a traditional English dinner in such a charming setting. But our hopes for an enjoyable evening out were instantly spoilt when your head waiter informed us that he had received no booking in our name and, so, no table was reserved for our party. My colleague and I protested at this and asked to speak to the Manager, who, we were told, was unavailable.Your staff then offered us a table which we all had to share with another couple and no effort was made to smooth over the unpleasantness we had experienced. We also had to wait for some considerable time before the menu was brought to us.I trust you will give this complaint your prompt attention as the whole embarrassing incident was a great disappointment to our guests and set a bad example to our English hospitality.Yours sincerely,Mr Paul J. Weller42. Mr Weller could be described as being _______.A. disappointedB. impoliteC. moderately dissatisfiedD. hurt and angry43. The writer had the unpleasant experience in _______.A. a hotelB. a Chinese restaurantC. a restaurant in Shakespeare’s birthplaceD. a bar in London44. Mr Weller hopes that this letter of complaint _______.A. will be looked into at onceB. will embarrass the managerC. will result in the restaurant being closedD. will cause the quick dismissal of the head waiterHappiness is for everyone. You don't need to care about those people who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of money and so on. Why? Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads at their free time.In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you; when you study hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health; when you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you; when you do something worng, people around you will help you to correct it. And when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too. All these are your happiness. If you notice them, you can see that happiness is always around you.Happiness is not the same as money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor, you can also say you are very happy, because you have something else that can't be bought with money. When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge yourself. So you cannot always say you are poor and you have bad luck. As the saying goes, life is like a revolving(旋转) door. . When it closes, it also opens. If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person.91.Happiness is for_________ .A. those who have large and beautiful housesB. those who have carsC. those who have a lot of moneyD. all people92. When you do something wrong, .A. people around you will help youB. you will have no chance to challenge yourselfC. your classmates will laugh at youD. you will be happy93. Which is true according to the passage? .A. When you get success, your friends will be very proud of you.B. You can get help from others when you make mistakes.C. You can still be a happy person even if you have little money.D. All the above.94. Why do we say "Happiness is not the same as money"? Because .A. money always brings happinessB. money doesn't always bring happinessC. everything can be bought with moneyD. only rich people have happiness95. Which is the title of the passage? ____________.A. HappinessB. Happy and LuckyC. Do Something Good to OthersD. Life and Success。

Some students become worried because they have to study very hard. Other students have trouble getting on well with people around them like their parents and classmates. Parents and teachers should care more about this problem.”Then Mr Ma gave some examples. One patient, a middle school student from Xi'an was doing badly in his lessons.

While she was reading the exam paper, she couldn't think of anything to write.A recent report from Jiefang Daily says about 18% of the young students in Shanghai have mental problems. They often felt worried and very unhappy. Unluckily, many of them won't go to ask for help. Some think they will look silly if they go to see a doctor.

Years ago, I lived in a building in a large city. The building next door was only a few feet away from mine. There was a woman who lived there, whom I had never met, yet I could see her seated by her window each afternoon, sewing or reading.After several months had gone by, I began to notice that her window was dirty. Everything was unclear through the dirty window. I would say to myself, "I wonder why that woman doesn't wash her window. It really looks terrible."One bright morning I decided to clean my flat, including washing the window on the inside.Late in the afternoon when I finished the cleaning, I sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for a rest. What a surprise! Across the way, the woman sitting by her window was clearly visible. Her window was clean!Then it dawned on me. I had been criticizing (批评) her dirty window, but all the time I was watching hers through my own dirty window.That was quite an important lesson for me. How often had I looked at and criticized others through the dirty window of my heart, through my own shortcomings?Since then, whenever I wanted to judge (评判) someone, I asked myself first, "Am I looking at him through my own dirty window?"Then I try to clean the window of my own world so that I may see the world about me more clearly.76. The writer couldn't see everything clearly through the window because_____.A. the woman's window was dirtyB. the writer's window was dirtyC. the woman lived nearbyD. the writer was near-sighted77. The writer was surprised that_____.A. the woman was sitting by her windowB. the woman's window was cleanC. the woman did cleaning in the afternoonD. the woman's window was still terrible78. "It dawned on me" probably means "____".A. I began to understand itB. it cheered me upC. I knew it grew lightD. it began to get dark79. It's clear that _____.A. the writer had never met the woman beforeB. the writer often washed the windowC. they both worked as cleanersD. they lived in a small town80. From the passage, we can learn ______.A. one shouldn't criticize others very oftenB. one should often make his windows cleanC. one must judge himself before he judges othersD. one must look at others through his dirty windowsPalaeontologists can tell much about how a dinosaur lived from the shape of its teeth or its beak, if it had no front teeth. Giraffes’teeth are different from zebras’teeth because giraffes eat tender leaves from the top of trees, white zebras eat tough, dry grass. In the same way, different families of dinosaurs evolved different kinds of teeth and beaks to cope with a variety of plants. Protoceratops, one of the smaller horned dinosaurs, had a parrot-like beak for shearing off plant stems, and scissor-like teeth to slice up its food.Camarasaurus, an 18-m (59-ft) long sauropod, had spoon-like cutting but no grinding teeth. However, it could reach high into trees to tear away leave.Corythosaurus, a duckbill, tore off leaves with its horny beak, stored them in its cheek pouches, then used rows of strong interlocking teeth to grind them.Plateosaurus, an early, long-necked giant, had leaf-shaped teeth to pluck off the leaves of soft plants such as ferns. It did not have grinding teeth.Iguanodon browsed on tough plants such as horsetails, and used its horny beak to nip off leaves. Its rows of ridged, grinding teeth crushed the leaves into a pulp.STRANGE BUT TRUEHeterodontosaurus, a plant eater from the early Jurassic Period had three kinds of teeth; on the lower jaw it had a horny beak. Then it had two pairs of large, fang-like teeth, with grinding teeth at the back.33. A palaeontologist is a person who studies __________.A. teethB. giraffes and zebrasC. animal eating habitsD. life in the distant past35. The Heterodontosaurus is unusual because __________.A. it had a beak and teethB. it had three kinds of teethC. lived in the early Jurassic PeriodD. the beak was made of horny material36. A dinosaur that did NOT have grinding teeth was the __________.A. HeterdontosaurusB. PlateosaurusC. CorythosaurusD. Iguanodon37. One difference between the Corythosaurus and the Iguanodon was ____.A. that Iguanodon could grind up its foodB. the way they took leaves from plantsC. that Corythosaurus had a beakD. the Period in which they lived38. From the study of teeth palaeontologists can tell __________.A. how long each dinosaur livedB. in which Period dinosaurs livedC. the type of plants dinosaurs ateD. when dinosaurs died outDear Sir,I am writing to make a strong complaint about the impolite treatment my guests, my colleague and I received when we visited your restaurant last Friday evening.On booking a table for four by telephone on Tuesday we were assured that there would be room for us despite the fact that your restaurant had been open only for a few weeks and all the tables had already been booked.We appreciate that there must be great demand for restaurant meals at this time of the year in such a popular and historic area but we were not expecting such an ill-mannered reception on the part of your head waiter.Our Chinese friends are currently touring the ‘Shakespeare Country’and were looking forward to a traditional English dinner in such a charming setting. But our hopes for an enjoyable evening out were instantly spoilt when your head waiter informed us that he had received no booking in our name and, so, no table was reserved for our party. My colleague and I protested at this and asked to speak to the Manager, who, we were told, was unavailable.Your staff then offered us a table which we all had to share with another couple and no effort was made to smooth over the unpleasantness we had experienced. We also had to wait for some considerable time before the menu was brought to us.I trust you will give this complaint your prompt attention as the whole embarrassing incident was a great disappointment to our guests and set a bad example to our English hospitality.Yours sincerely,Mr Paul J. Weller42. Mr Weller could be described as being _______.A. disappointedB. impoliteC. moderately dissatisfiedD. hurt and angry43. The writer had the unpleasant experience in _______.A. a hotelB. a Chinese restaurantC. a restaurant in Shakespeare’s birthplaceD. a bar in London44. Mr Weller hopes that this letter of complaint _______.A. will be looked into at onceB. will embarrass the managerC. will result in the restaurant being closedD. will cause the quick dismissal of the headwaiterHappiness is for everyone. You don't need to care about those people who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of money and so on. Why? Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads at their free time.In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you; when you study hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health; when you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you; when you do something worng, people around you will help you to correct it. And when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too. All these are your happiness. If you notice them, you can see that happiness is always around you.Happiness is not the same as money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor, you can also say you are very happy, because you have something else that can't be bought with money. When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge yourself. So you cannot always say you are poor and you have bad luck. As the saying goes, life is like a revolving(旋转) door. . When it closes, it also opens. If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person.91.Happiness is for_________ .A. those who have large and beautiful housesB. those who have carsC. those who have a lot of moneyD. all people92. When you do something wrong, .A. people around you will help youB. you will have no chance to challenge yourselfC. your classmates will laugh at youD. you will be happy93. Which is true according to the passage? .A. When you get success, your friends will be very proud of you.B. You can get help from others when you make mistakes.C. You can still be a happy person even if you have little money.D. All the above.94. Why do we say "Happiness is not the same as money"? Because .A. money always brings happinessB. money doesn't always bring happinessC. everything can be bought with moneyD. only rich people have happiness95. Which is the title of the passage? ____________.A. HappinessB. Happy and LuckyC. Do Something Good to OthersD. Life and Success。
