The bus ride took forty minutes and the bike ride took half an hour!The next day I bought myself a new bike. Now I don,t feel afraid. I love cycling to work, and I feel fit and well.Many people think in the same way as I do. That,s why you see a lot of bikes on the road. Who knows, perhaps in the future we,ll have roads for bicycles only. I hope so!1.What can we see on the road if we visit London now?2.

八年级英语上册阅读理解练习题一、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All over the world the need for laptops and smartphones increases each year. Networks have been part of our life. Probably everyone with a portable device(移动设备) has once logged on to a public Wi-Fi network without paying for it, while they are having a coffee, on a train, in a shopping mall or at a hotel. However, is this kind of public Wi-Fi network safe?Some networks are better protected than others because encryption (加密) methods are used. Therefore, they are safer than others. But a survey in 2015 showed that more than 950 million records were not protected, including addresses, emails, birth dates, phone numbers, passwords and so on. These open Wi-Fi networks are really not safe, because it is very easy for hackers (黑客) to break into the operating system and get people's private information.Most smartphones and laptops, by themselves, search and connect to Wi-Fi networks. They usually prefer a network with a connection that has been used before. Hackers' devices are able to record these searches and look like the trusted Wi-Fi networks. When these smartphones and laptops log on to the networks which are not real, hackers can easily steal their private information.So next time, when we want to use our laptops or our smartphones in public places which offer free Wi-Fi networks, please think it twice on take safe measures before using them.(1)Why do people like to log on to a public Wi-Fi network?A. It can provide useful information.B. The owner of the network is polite.C. It is free.D. It is safe.(2)We can learn from the passage that __________.A. not all the public Wi-Fi networks are safeB. none of the public Wi-Fi networks is safeC. in 2015 more than 950 million records were protectedD. there is no way to protect our private(3)Hackers would probably get the following EXCEPT __________ when we connect our laptops or smartphones to a public Wi-Fi network.A. our birth datesB. our passwordsC. our phone numbersD. our smartphones (4)Which of the following can be the best title for this passage?A. Don't use public Wi-Fi networksB. Why are the public Wi-Fi networks a possible danger?C. We needn't protect our private informationD.

I knew my show was successful.Two weeks later, I got into the final. Looking at the crowded(拥挤的) school hall, I felt nervous. As I waited for my turn(顺序) to perform(表演), I told myself, “It should be fine, and it will just be like the last show.”Then I heard the host(主持人) calling my name and I went on the stage(舞台). I looked at the audience(观众). It was noisy and then became quiet. I started playing the guitar and singing.Suddenly, the guitar got broken. I stopped singing and didn’t know what to do. At that time, I heard one boy shouting, “You could do it!” And then everyone started shouting. I took a deep breath and sang again.Many people told me I did a great job after my performance. I was glad to hear that. Of course I didn’t win the final, but it was a great experience(经历) to me.56.

On the playground.58. What happened when the writer was singing?A. All people left.B. The guitar was broken.C. A boy shouted suddenly.D. The stage became dark.59.

My show experienceBIn 1981, t he Chinese women’s volleyball team first stood on the top at the World Cup. And in 2019, it defended(保住) its World Cup crown with a record of 11 wins. The women’s volleyball team has been the pride of the Chinese people. To honor it, a film named Leap《夺冠》in English has been made.Based on the volleyball team’s stories, the film shows the struggles(奋斗) and achievements(成就) of the Chinese women’s volleyball team over the past 40 years. Gong Li, a world-famous Chinese actress, plays the role(角色) of Lang Ping, who has won the world championships many times with the team and is now the team’s head coach. In order to play the role well, Gong came to the training site of the team, observing Lang’s words and deeds(举止) carefully.Zhu Ting, captain of the Chinese wom en’s volleyball team, also plays a part in the film. It is the first time that she has taken part in a film shooting and she says it’s a little bit difficult. However, her playing volleyball is more difficult than being an actress. It took her at least 10 years to rise to fame(成名) in the field but playing herself in the film could be realized in a short time.The film hit the screen in January, 2020. The Chinese women’s volleyball team not only is a competitive sports team but also shows the spirit(精神) of struggling and never giving up.61.

Keep on fighting.B. Failure is the mother of success.C. Learn from mistakes.D. Seeing is believing.65. Where is the passage possibly from?A. A story book.B. An advertisement.C. A film magazine.D. A tour guide.CEver wonder why you can go over a book again and again and still be lost when tested on what you read? It may be because you haven’t practiced remembering.Remembering is a useful way to help us learn. Some of us remember best by listening; others by re-reading; and others learn best by using pictures and diagrams(图表). Schools try many of these different ways to help students “download” new information.But a recent study from Purdue University, US, says that successful learning means being able to recall information at any moment.“Our view is that learning is not about studying or getting knowledge ‘in memory’,” said Jeffrey Karpicke, the lead researcher. “Learning is about ret rieving(寻回, 检索). So it is important to make retrieval practice an important part of the learning process.The research studied two groups of students. Both groups learned something from a text. One group made diagrams about the text. This method(方法) is called concept mapping. The other group put the text away after learning it and tried recalling the concepts from memory.Then, both groups were tested(被测试) on the information they had learned. Both groups scored well at recalling the learned information. However, when they were asked to return one week later, the group who made diagrams scored better than the group who did not use concept mapping. So by drawing concept maps, we are able to recall information far better, which will help us to study.Our mind, just like our body, has to practice activities to become good at them.66. Which of the following ways of remembering is NOT mentioned(提及) in Paragraph 2?A. Listening.B. Re-reading.C. Speaking.D. Using pictures and diagrams.67. According to Jeffrey Karpicke, learning is about _______.A. studying knowledge from memoryB. getting and recalling knowledgeC. practicing drawing photos and mapsD. getting knowledge from memory68. What does the underlined part “concept mapping” in Paragraph 5 mean in Chinese?A. 心电图B. 概念图C. 规划图D. 线路图69. When both groups were tested on the information after one week, _______.A. they both scored wellB. the group that didn’t use concept mapping scored betterC. neither of the groups scored wellD. the group using concept mapping scored better70. What can we tell from the story?A. Our minds need to practice to remember things.B. It’s impossible to remember everything we’ve learned.C. How to get knowledge by concept mapping.D. Concept mapping is the only way to learn.答案:56-60 DABCD 61-65 BDCAC 66-70 CBBDA四、阅读理解阅读下列短文,根据短文内容选择最佳答案(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)AA huge fire swept through the top of the famous Notre-Dame de Paris(巴黎圣母院) on Monday evening, April 15, 2019, sending flames and huge clouds of grey smoke into the sky.Notre-Dame de Paris is one of the most famous buildings in the world.
