【英语】八年级英语下册阅读理解真题经典1一、八年级英语下册阅读理解专项练习（含答案解析）1．阅读理解A proverb is a short, well-known saying that tells a common truth or belief. Proverbs are popular around the world.Many listeners have sent us their favorite proverbs. They give advice about how to live. We begin with two popular proverbs about staying healthy by eating good food. One is" An apple a day keeps the doctor away." The other is" You are what you eat."Several proverbs about birds also give advice. You may have heard this one: The early bird catches the worm. This means a person who gets up early, or acts quickly, has the best chance of success. Another famous proverb is" a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush". This means you should not risk losing something you have by searching something that is not guaranteed（有保证的）.Another proverb warns "do not put all your eggs in one basket". This means you should not put all of your resources（资源） together in one place because you could risk losing everything at one time.Here is more advice: If at first you don't succeed, try, try again. Also," Never put off until tomorrow what you can do today."Yet another proverb advises us not to be concerned about something bad that you cannot change. It says," There is no use crying over spilled milk."Do you agree with the proverb" Children should be seen and not heard"? Maybe you have told your children that" hard work never hurt anyone". But other people say that" all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy". They believe it is not wise to spend all your time working but never having fun.Finally, here is one of our favorite pro-verbs: People who live in glass houses should not throw stones. This means you should not criticize other people unless you are perfect yourself.That's all for today. Thanks for listening.（1）A proverb is ________.A. a long sayingB. not famous at allC. about common truthD. only popular in China（2）The proverb "you are what you eat" advises us to ________.A. eat what we likeB. have a healthy dietC. eat an apple every dayD. eat as much as we can（3）If someone is slow in action, we can tell him/her the proverb "________".A. the early bird catches the wormB. do not put all your eggs in one basketC. all work and no play makes Jack a dull boyD. people who live in glass houses should not throw stones（4）What is this passage probably used for?A.

As the population is growing fast, there must be changes in our food.More land will be used for building houses for people. Then there will be less space for cattle and chickens, so meat will be more expensive. Instead, people will eat more fruit and vegetables. Scientists are always trying out new ways of growing food. Only one third of the Earth's area is land and the rest is sea, so some think maybe we can get more food from the sea.Besides, though rice supports more than half of the world's population, it needs a lot of water to grow. Scientists predict（预测） the climate will get drier during the next century. Therefore, it might be impossible to grow rice in the future. Some farmers are experimenting with new crops. Farmers like to grow beans because they don't need much water, and beans also improve the quality of the soil. The soybean （黄豆） makes a good substitute（替代品） for rice and meat.（1）Why won't some people eat meat every day in the future according to the passage?A. Because meat makes people fat.B. Because meat may be more expensive.C. Because people want to be healthier.D. Because people want to eat more vegetables.（2）Where can we get more food according to the passage?A. From the sea.B. From the land.C. From the rivers.D. From other planets.（3）Why might it be impossible to grow rice in the future according to the passage?A. Because growing rice is hard work.B.

Beans may be popular for farmers to grow.B. Beans need as much water as rice to grow.C. Beans improve the quality of the soil.D. Beans can take the place of rice and meat.【答案】（1）B（2）A（3）C（4）B【解析】【分析】短文大意：这篇短文讲的是将来人们的食物会是什么样的。

The old man was surprised and asked "Why don't you want the fish?"The girl replied, "I want the fishing rod（竿）in your hands.”The old man asked, "Why do you want the rod?""It doesn't take long to eat all the fish in a basket. But if I have the fishing rod, I can go fishing by myself and I won't be afraid of not having any more fish to eat."I think you will certainly say that the girl is very smart. Wrong!

【英语】八年级英语下册阅读理解专题复习1一、八年级英语下册阅读理解专项练习（含答案解析）1．阅读理解Every morning my father buys a newspaper on his way to work. Every evening my mother looks through magazines at home. And every night, I look at the posters with photos of David Beckham and Yao Ming on my bedroom wall before I go to sleep. Can we imagine life without paper or print?Paper was first created about 2,000 years ago, and has been made from silk, cotton, bamboo, and, since the 19th century, from wood. People learned to write words on paper to make a book. But in those days, books could only be produced one at a time by hand. As a result, they were expensive and rare.
