仁爱英语八年级阅读理解测试题和答案
仁爱英语八年级阅读理解测试题和答案（一）第5单元(一)I felt very sad because I was not able to get the ticket to the film Hero last Friday. I learned from the newspaper that tickets could be bought at the cinema box office in Richland Hills any day between 10:00 a. m. and 4:00 p. m. Since I work from 9:00 a. m. to 5:30 p. m. , the only time I could go to the cinema is during my 45 minutes’ lunchtime. It is a pity that the cinema is on the other side of the town and the bus service between my company and Richland Hills is not very good. But if you are lucky, you can make the round trip in 45 minutes.Last Monday, I stood at the bus stop for 15 minutes waiting for a bus. By the time I saw one come round the corner, there was not enough time left to make the trip, so I had to go back. The same thing happened on Tuesday, and again on Wednesday. On Thursday my luck changed. I got on a bus right away and arrived at the cinema in twenty minutes. But when I got there, I found a long line of people at the box office. I heard one man said he had been waiting in line for over an hour. I found I would not have enough time to wait in line. I caught the next bus and went back across the town.By Friday I understood my only hope was to make the trip by car. It was expensive, but I felt it would be worth it to see the film. The trip bycar only took 10 minutes, but it felt like an hour to me. When I reached the cinema, I was delighted to see that nobody was waiting in line. But I quickly found out that it was because they had already sold out all the tickets.根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。

You will find nothing special about this old wall if you just look at it. But for the students in my class, it is a special wall. Take a good look at it, and you will get to know the real feelings and thoughts of us, the 9th graders.In the middle of the wall, there is a big “VICTORY”. It was written in pencil. I guess it must have been written by someone who got a good mark in an exam.A little higher above the formulas, there is a poem. It only has two sentences. It reads: All those sweet memories have disappeared. Like tears dropping in the heavy rain.Oh! It must have been written at the end of the last term in middle school. Classmates had to leave school and good friends had to part. What a sad poem!If you “explore” the wall more carefully, you will find many other interesting things, like a crying face, or a happy face, and other patterns(图案). There are still some patterns and letters that I can’t understand, but they all show the feeling of the students who drew them.For years, the wall has witnessed(目睹) all the things that have happened in the classroom. I don’t know how it will be next year, two years from now, or even ten years from now. But I hope more smiling faces will be drawn on it.（）1.

The officer of the army told Mei to perform for them and promised to give him a reward. Mei refused at the risk(风险) of his life and from then on he did not appear on stage during the war.

On the steps of building, a group of engineering students were waiting for the last exam. On their faces was confidence.They knew the exam would be easy. The professor (a teacher at a college) had said they could bring any books or notes during the test.Right after they came into the classroom. The professor handed out the papers. There were only five questions on it.Three hours passed. Then the professor began to collect the papers. The students no longer looked confident. On their faces was nervous expression. The professor watched the worried faces before him, and then asked, “How many of you have completed all five questions?” No hand was raised. “How many of you have answered four?” Still no hands. “Three? Two?” The students moved restlessly in their seats. “One, then? Certainly somebody has finished one.” But the class kept silent. The professor said, “That is exactly what I expected. I just want to make you know clearly that even though you have completed four years of engineering. There are still many things about the subject you don't know. These questions you could not answer are common in everyday practice.” Then, smiling, he added, “You will all pass this course, your education has just begun.”The years have obscured the name of this professor, but not the lesson he taught.（）16.

But some of them have some wrong ideas about it.A plate of chicken is a good meal before games because it has much energy.In fact, the best meal before games should have carbohydrates(碳水化合物). Foods like potatoes, bread, bananas are rich in it, but chicken and meat are not. Carbohydrates are the best and most easily used form of energy. The energy that you get for today's game is from what you ate yesterday!The best time to exercise is early in the morning.No. Morning is a good time to exercise, but it may not be suitable for you. If an afternoon or evening period suits you, and you enjoy the feeling of getting healthier, you can choose any time to exercise. There is no fixed time for you to exercise.If you drink water when you exercise, you'll get headaches and feel tired.The fact is that you must have some water during breaks when you exercise. And after exercising, you must have enough water. If you don't drink enough water, then you'll probably get headaches and feel tired.Exercising the same body part every day is the fastest way to improve strength.False. Exercising the same body part every day is the fastest way to cause problems. Toimprovestrength, you want to work your muscles(肌肉) hard, but then you need to give those muscles a day of rest. Too much exercise can cause serious problems to muscles.Girls who do strength training will make their muscles big.Wrong. We usually connect those big muscles with bodybuilders(健美运动员)but girls don't have enough of male hormone(雄性激素) to make their muscles big like men. Strength training is a good way to make their muscles strong for girls.（）21. You had better eat _____ before games.A. bananasB. chickenC. meatD. beef（）22.

Strength training might make girls become silly.B. Evening is the best time to exercise as it's always cool.C. You should eat food full of energy today for tomorrow's games.D. Exercising the same body part every day is the fastest way to improve strength.（）24. The writer advises you to _____.A. take exercise only in the morningB. make your muscles small through exerciseC. drink enough water after exercisingD. become a bodybuilder by strength training（）25 Which of the following would be the best title for the article?A. Results of sports and exercise.B. Proper time for sports and exercise.C. Reasons for sports and exercise.D. False ideas about sports and exercise.FAs space science develops, man has learned more and more about space. Space is not only amazing but also dangerous. While working in space, spacemen are facing danger as well as success.Scientists have found out that the radiation（辐射）is the greatest danger to spacemen in space. When spacemen are working in space, they are in danger of the radiation from the sun and other stars, which is bad for their health. The harm of the radiation won’t be found until their children even grandchildren are born. Some special medicine may work a little, but no really effective medicine has been found so far.Space rubbish is also thought to be a great danger to spacemen. It’s reported that there were 9,000 man-made things flying in space. About 30% of these are satellites, 10% are spaceships, and the rest are space rubbish. An explosion（爆炸）in space in 1999 made a cloud of 300,000 fragments,each at least 4mm in size. A small piece of these even knocked a spaceship window and caused some damage（损坏）.Scientists are watching and reporting any possible danger all the time. They are working to deal with space rubbish. Although space is really dangerous, it interests many people on the earth. In the near future, it may become possible for people to spend a few days in a space hotel. We may even choose to leave the earth and live in space in a few years. So we should do something to help improve the space environment.（）26. ______ shows the man-made things in space in the correct way.A. B. C. D.（）27. The radiation from the sun and other stars is ______ to spacemen.A. goodB. helpfulC. usefulD. harmful（）28. The underlined word “fragments” means “______”.A. 碎片B. 泡沫C. 烟雾D. 飞碟（）29. The passage talks about _________ kinds of danger in space.A. twoB. threeC. fourD. five（）30. Which of the following is TRUE?A. Scientists have found out ways to solve any problem in space.B. Every one of us can have a travel to space in ten years.C. The harm of the radiation may be found in the spacemen’s children.D. Space is really dangerous, so it doesn’t interest anyone on the earth.三、单词拼写（每小题1分，共15分）根据文章内容和首字母提示，写出单词正确形式Happiness is for everyone.

As he waited for his parents to return home, he watched a film on TV. His eyes became heavier and heavier as time passed by.Suddenly Bob's eyes opened wide- what was the sound in the next room? Bob heard the window being opened slowly. For a minute, Bob was so frightened that he could not move, and his body felt like ice. He knew that he couldn't lose his head and began to think of the things he could do.Again he heard the sound of someone trying to climb into his home through the window.Bob's drums were standing in the corner near the TV. "Wait, maybe there is something I can do," thought Bob. He beat his drums as hard as he could. The sound was so terrible that Bob surprised even himself.

However, when she first walked past the students in the school, her excitement turned to fear, and then to loneliness（孤独） over the next few days. "Why didn't anyone say 'hi' to me or invite me to his or her lunch table? Is it because of my clothes or my hair?" she wondered. Almost every day during the first week, Anna stayed alone, thinking that there must have been something wrong with her or that nobody saw her at all!What caused Anna's problem? The reason was that nobody knew her. Most people don't like talking with strangers. So it's your job to volunteer to make contact with people who you want to know. The easiest way to catch their attention is to notice them first. Make eye contact with them, and smile at them. When you smile at them, you are doing your best to show your kindness to them, and they are sure to understand that you are saying, "Hey, how's everything going?" In thisway, you are taking the first step towards the road to friendship.When Anna realized this, she started talking to her classmates. Guess what happened? It really worked. She had made two friends by the end of the month.In fact, saying "hi" or making friends with strangers is not hard. And the joy it brings you is really great. So try to open your heart to strangers!（1）Which of the following shows the change in Anna's feelings?A. excited→afraid→lonely→happyB. happy→lonely→sad→proudC. afraid→relaxed→nervous→happyD. nervous→angry→happy→sad（2）The underlined word "contact" in Paragraph 2 means .A. agreeB. greetC. praiseD. communicate（3）According to the writer's opinion, which is the easiest way to catch others' attention?A.

The bike that the service company provides has GPS or Bluetooth on it, and those bikes can be easily unlocked with a smartphone and left anywhere in public. Bike-sharing allows people to borrow a bike from one place and return it at another place easily.In some cities, we can see more and more people riding this kind of sharing-bikes. It's very convenient to use the bikes if you have a smartphone. First, you have to download such an app on your smartphone. Then what you need to do is find a nearest hike through the app, scan the QR code on the bike or connect your phone with the bike over a Bluetooth wireless connection. You will find the bike can be unlocked itself. Then you can enjoy your trip. What's more, the greatest advantage of hike- sharing is that you can easily find one and never worry about where to park it. The cost of riding depends on the time that you spend. Normally, every hour you ride, you need to pay one yuan. It doesn't cost so much, does it?At the same time, some people park the hikes in their own homes. Besides, some people don't value the bikes. Now service companies are trying to solve the problems like being stolen.Technology and science have changed our social lifestyles. We have to say bike- sharing brings us more convenience without doubt. And we also hope that people can not only enjoy it but also put it to good use.（1）From the first paragraph, we know ______.A. bike-sharing is invented in ChinaB. sharing-bikes are used by some peopleC. most people in cities don t driveD. sharing-bikes can be borrowed anywhere（2）II you want to use a sharing-bike, you must _________ first.A. have a smartphone and download an appB. download an app and pay for the tripC. unlock the bike and download an appD. find a nearest bike and borrow it from anyone（3）Which of the following is NOT mentioned in this passage?A.

It makes the quilt strong. If life is a quilt, love should be a thread. Love is inside."I couldn't understand her until the next spring. At that time, my father suddenly got sick seriously.

They were so kind to each other and it seemed they were the happiest couple.After two months my father still couldn't walk by himself."Dad, how are you feeling now?

Others grow up small and unhealthy. In search of food, hungry deer move closer to where humans live. They eatfarm crops, vegetables and even trees. Besides, increased numbers of deer near roads can cause traffic accidents.People admire the grace and fast speed of deer. Most people don't want these animals to be hungry and ill. Should people take action to control the growing deer populations?Should People Take Direct Action?Many people think that hunting（打猎） is the best way to control the animal populations. Wildlife managers will see if there's enough food in an area and decide its carrying capacity（容量）. Then hunters with licenses are sent to help control the number of deer. Hunting is usually not allowed in cities or suburbs, however.Some people have the idea to catch the deer and move them to other places. But this methodis expensive and requires finding another place that can accept the deer without breaking the balance of ecosystem（生态系统）.Scientists are also working to develop chemicals（化学药品） to control the birth rate（率）in deer populations. But this plan works for only one year at a time.Should People Take Indirect Action?Some suggest bringing in natural enemies of deer, such as wolves, lions and bears, to areas with too many deer. But these animals could also hurt dogs, cats, and even humans. Other communities have built tall fences（篱笆） around areas to keep out the deer. However, this is impossible for farmers.▲Some people are against any kind of action. They support leaving the deer alone. Animal populations in an area naturally go up and down over time. Doing nothing means that some deer will die of hunger or illness. But finally, the population will reach a size within the carrying capacity（容量） of the environment. So, let nature go its own way.（1）According to the passage, increased numbers of deer can bring to people in the area.A. water pollutionB. traffic accidentsC. serious illnessesD. growing populations（2）Which of the following is the best to fill in the " ▲ " in the passage?A. Should People Do Nothing?B. Should People Protect the Deer?C. Should People Take Special Action?D. Should People Drive the Deer Away?（3）The writer most probably agrees that .A. farmers can build fences to keep the deer outB. people should leave the deer alone in the wildC. hunting is the best way to control the deer populationsD. it's great to catch the deer and move them to other places（4）The writer organizes this passage by .A. telling storiesB. using numbersC. giving opinionsD. describing scenes （场景）7．阅读理解By Anna Matteo28 January, 2019A 3-year-old boy who was lost in the woods for two days is now safe at home with his family.

Police followed up on the information and found Casey at about 9:30 that night. He was in good health.Casey told the rescuers he had hung out with a black bear for two days, a bear he called his "friend".The police officer Chip Hughes spoke with reporters from several news agencies. He said Casey did not say how he could survive in the woods for two days in the cold, rainy weather. "However," the police officer said, "he did say he had a friend in the woods that was a bear with him."Hundreds of people helped in the search and rescue efforts, including some 600 volunteers, police and members of the army. Doctors at the medical center gave Casey some examination. He was then sent to his family on January 25.His mother talked with reporters and thanked everyone who joined the search for her son.

Some colors can make people feel relaxed, and some colors can make people feel nervous. Now, this kind of knowledge is being used in many places. For example, school walls are always painted green because green makes students feel relaxed. It is also good for the students' eyes. Some books are also green or light blue for the same reason. Restaurant owners not only have to know how to make food, but also have to know how to make money. Here are some things they've learned from scientific studies. The color red makes people hungry. Many fast food restaurants have red furniture or walls. Soft colors like pink and light blue make people feel relaxed, so they spend more time eating. Loud music may be nice at first, but it soon makes people want to leave. Hard seats also make customers want to eat quickly and leave. Many restaurants, especially fast food restaurants, use this knowledge to make customers eat faster.（1）How does the color green make the students feel?A. Hungry.B. Nervous.C. Angry.D. Relaxed.（2）Which color isn't mentioned in this passage?A. Green.B. White.C. Light blue.D.

Communication is a problem for parents and children of all ages. If it's hard for you to communicate with your parents, don't worry about it. Here are some advice for you to bridge the generation gap （代沟）.Don't argue （争辩） with your parents. Don't get to your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably won't consider your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you can't express yourself well if you are angry. Go someplace to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you don't think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter.Try to reach a compromise （和解）. Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something.You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Michael's mother didn't agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days.Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect （尊敬） to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong.Talk about your values. The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care about, and why. Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life.A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person.

It is the world's most unlikely sporting team, because the sport breaks taboos in a country where in many traditional communities, women are not allowed out of the house.The head coach faces frequent threats and the girls' families do not always approve "If it's not their fathers trying to stop them, it's a brother or uncle."Two members of the team, Massouma, 18, and Zarab, 17, are sisters.

The ladder is for him."I knew at once what he was telling me. I had often heard the old saying,"A lie is a jump from the top of a house"I said nothing .But I felt like crying.The minutes went by. What would people think about the ladder? It stood by the front door. I was afraid it might be there a long time. I had to do something!At last I went to Grandfather. He was reading a book.

It was being talked a lot among teachers and students in Foshan city.All schools have their own rules. In most schools, boy students are not allowed to wear long hair while girls are not allowed to dye their hair. And most school rules say that students should wear their school uniforms at school.

When she went back to school the next day, the teacher of her class got very angry with her. When she was asked why she had her hair dyed, she just answered, “I like it.” She says that she works hard at her lessons and does well in every subject. She just doesn’t know why the teacher doesn’t allow her to dye her hair while women teachers can dye their long hair. Some boys think that their stars often wear long hair, so they think that they will look cool too if they wear long hair and wear the hairstyle like their favorite stars.It is not wrong for teenagers to admire stars, wear their favorite clothes or hairstyle. However, a school has its own rules for all the students to follow so that the school can be in good order. Students should not break the rules at school. But if they are outside school, they have their right to wear what they like.（）36. What is the passage mainly about?A. Schoolboys and Schoolgirls.B. School rules.C. Students and famous stars.D.

This competition will provide a platform for students to showcase their reading comprehension abilities, expand their vocabulary, and develop a deeper appreciation for literature.The primary objective of this competition is to encourage students to read extensively, engage with diverse literary genres, and enhance their overall English proficiency. By participating in this event, students will have the opportunity to challenge themselves, gain recognition for their achievements, and cultivate a lifelong passion for reading.The competition will be structured in three distinct stages, each designed to assess different aspects of the students' reading abilities.Stage 1: Preliminary RoundIn the preliminary round, students will be required to read a selection of short stories, articles, or excerpts from novels. These materials will cover a range of genres, including fiction, non-fiction, and poetry, and will be carefully curated to challenge the students' reading comprehension and critical thinking skills.The preliminary round will consist of a written exam, where students will answer a series of multiple-choice and short-answer questions based on the reading materials. This stage will test the students' ability to comprehend the main ideas, identify key details, and draw inferences from the text.The top-performing students from the preliminary round will advance to the next stage of the competition.Stage 2: Literary AnalysisIn the second stage, the selected students will be required to conduct a comprehensive literary analysis of a longer work of fiction or non-fiction. This stage will assess the students' ability to deeply engage with the text, analyze the author's writing style, and interpret the themes and messages conveyed.The students will be given a choice of several pre-selected books or literary works, and they will have a designated period of time to read and analyze the assigned text. During this stage, the students will berequired to submit a written essay or a multimedia presentation that demonstrates their understanding of the literary work and their ability to think critically about its content.The panel of judges, comprising experienced English teachers and literature enthusiasts, will evaluate the students' literary analyses based on criteria such as depth of analysis, clarity of expression, and originality of interpretation.Stage 3: Oral PresentationThe final stage of the competition will focus on the students' oral communication skills. The top-scoring students from the literary analysis stage will be invited to participate in the oral presentation round.In this round, the students will be given a new, previously unseen text and will be asked to deliver an engaging, informed, and well-structured oral presentation about the work. The presentation should demonstrate the students' ability to comprehend the text, identify its key themes and elements, and effectively communicate their interpretation to the audience.The oral presentations will be assessed by a panel of judges based on criteria such as clarity of speech, depth of understanding, the ability to engage the audience, and the overall effectiveness of thepresentation.The competition will culminate in an awards ceremony where the top-performing students will be recognized and celebrated for their achievements. Prizes and certificates will be awarded to the winners, encouraging them to continue their pursuit of excellence in English language and literature.To ensure the success and smooth operation of the 8th Grade English Reading Competition, the following logistics and organizational details will be considered:Participant EligibilityThe competition will be open to all 8th-grade students within the school district. Participation will be voluntary, and students will be encouraged to sign up through their English teachers or the school's administration.Timeline and ScheduleThe competition will be held over the course of several weeks, with the preliminary round taking place in the first month, the literary analysis stage in the second month, and the oral presentation round in the third month. The awards ceremony will be held at the end of the third month, allowing ample time for the students to prepare and participate in the various stages.Promotion and PublicityTo generate excitement and maximize participation, the competition will be widely promoted within the school district.

八年级英语上册阅读理解测试题及答案一、八年级英语上册阅读理解专项练习（含答案解析）1．阅读理解Many of you have watched a Superman cartoon or movie. But did you know he first appeared in comics（连环漫画）? Do you want to learn more about popular comic books around the world? Take a look!Do you find reading boring? Have a read of some comic books. You will learn to love their colorful pictures and simple language.Comic books usually tell stories through cartoons. The US and Japan have some great comic books. But they are not the same.Their names are different. People say "comic books" in the US but "manga" in Japan.American comics are often about superheroes—characters like Superman and Spider Man. So action is a major part of American comics. But Japanese manga like to tell stories of ordinary people. Luffy in One Piece（《海盗王》）is such an example.American comics make people excited with super powers, while Japanese manga comfort（安慰）people with moving stories. Natsume's Book of Friends is about a teenage boy. He can see spirits（精灵）.

Suddenly, a strong wind blows up the hill and lifts Daniel right off his feet. Daniel holds on to his kite tightly and is blown into the clouds. Finally he lands in a small town with a sign, “Nowhere: The Town Nobody’s Ever Heard Of”. This worries Daniel.He asks people around where Nowhere is. But all of them say, “Nowhere. Nobody knows.” He tries hard to find out the way home but he cannot. It is like an adventure until he comes across the King. Daniel talks to him and he decides to help Daniel. He claps his hands twice. A great wind comes up and pulls the kite, along with Daniel, into the clouds and back to Peace Hill.Comment (评论):The story is so amazing that I could not stop reading it.

Since 2013, Torobohas taken the national college entrance exam with other Japanese students. However, the robot has failed to get the required (必需的) score for Todai every year. This year was no exception.Torobo is part of a project called “Can a Robot Get into the University of Tokyo?” Japan’s National Institute of Informatics started the project in 2011. Torobo does not walk around. It is a robot brain that has arms to complete the test.Researchers of the project want to find out what intellectual abilities (智能) will be replaced by machines. Results show that Torobo has grown in ability year by year. This year it got a score higher than Japan’s national average(平均分), which is enough to enter other good universities, but not Todai. With its big database, Torobo is good at solving knowledge-based questions and mathematical calculations (数学运算). That’s why it got good scores in physics, history and math. But Torobo has a hard time thinking independently (独立地). As a result, it got weak scores in language and writing.Luckily, after four years of suffering, researchers have decided to free Torobo from taking the test.

There are also two breaks for Christmas and Easter.Most schools have a uniform, which might be a sweatshirt, a T-shirt with the school’s logo(标志), grey or black trousers for boys and a skirt for girls. Most children wear a thick coat to school because of the cold weather.But sometimes it is nice not to have to wear school uniform. About two or three times a year, many British schools have “No uniform Day”. On that day, the children come to school wearing their usual clothes, and give some money to charity(慈善).All school children in the UK learn the same subjects, such as Maths, Science, Computers, Music, Geography and History.

Improving EnglishSendyourquestionstotheLanguageDoctor,*************.Many students ask for advice about improving their English. There are three basic questions. ※ The first question is about real English. Li Hao from Hubei wrote, “I enjoy watching English films and listening to real English songs. But it takes a long time. What do you think?”This is a great way to learn English! Talk about the film or song with your friends, and guess the meaning of the new words. Just enjoy yourself!※ The second question is about speaking. Sam from Suzhou wrote, “Our school has a foreign teacher. But I’m shy and can ’t speak to her. What should I do?”When I visit China, lots of people in the street say, “Hello! How are you? Where are you from? Do you like China?” These are good questions to start a conversation (对话). Many people are shy when they speak English, so before you begin, take a deep breath (呼吸) and smile! Smiling always helps.※ The third question is about vocabulary. Oliver from Anhui Province wrote, “I want to remember all the new words. I write them down, but I forget them quickly. What should I do?”Try to remember eight or ten words a day . Write them on pieces of paper and place them in your bedroom. Say the words when you see them, and change them every day . And when you ’re shopping, how about counting the English words, or saying the English names for everything you see? ( ) 36.

On that day, students usually have lots of races, games, matches and competitions. They join in the "field day" and win prizes.Because of her brace, my mind raced, "She must be very upset.

Then Sarah said, "I had an advantage（优势）."Ahha. I knew it. She must have been given a head start……some kind of physical（身体上的）advantage. I thought in my mind. But again, before I could say anything, she said, "Daddy, I didn't get a head start…My advantage was I had to try harder!"（1）Sarah .A. is always very upsetB. always wears a braceC. has problems with her handD. is able to run freely（2）The underlined words "get her down" in paragraph 3 means__________.A. make her feel sadB. make her come downC. make her write downD. make her feel tired（3）Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A.
