一、阅读理解1.It is true that people with better education* are usually able to get better paying jobs. In other words, they have more chances to choose a good job while people with little or no education don’t. It seems that the purpose* of education is to make people get jobs. But not all the people agree with this idea.Some people may think that a person should spend the best years of his life to get education in order to make more money in the future. This was probably one of the earliest purposes ofed ucation. In fact, if education is just a way to make a living, people don’t need to spend so much time in school. They can get education for a living in a short time. Subjects like history and geography need not be taught to everyone. And people don’t have to learn maths and languages so carefully. So it is clear that education is much more than teaching a man to get a way of living.So what is education for? Education is well-rounded and it should improve a man in many ways. It is not only to teach him to speak, read and write, but also to develop his creative* thinking and other abilities. After that, it is to make him a wise man and thankfully enjoy the achievements of human. Education is to make a man lead a better life. Educated people are expected to be able to listen to good music, read good books, watch plays and most of all, take an interest in the world.I would agree that making a good living is an important reason for education, but certainly not the most important or the only reason.1)People with better education usually __________.A.have fewer chance to choose a good job B.have more chances to get a good job C.make less money than others D.spend the best years making money2)The earliest education was probably to __________.A.teach a man to think creatively B.teach people to read good books C.improve a man in many ways D.help people make more money3)What does the underlined word “well-rounded” in Paragraph 3 mean in Chinese?A.圆满的 B.崭新的 C.全面的 D.公平的4)It is expected that educated people will be able to ___________.A.write good books by themselves B.learn all the subjects very wellC.take an interest in the world D.lead a richer life than others5)The passage mainly tells us that ____________.A.making a living is not the only purpose of education. B.people can get education in a short time.C.people should study hard to get better paying jobs. D.all subjects are very important for a way of living.2.阅读短文,判断正误。

And he loves to pick on little boys like Danny.”Mrs. Green, Danny’s teacher, was concerned a lot. “I didn’t know that Danny was being picked on,” she said. “He’s never said anything about this to me!” Mrs. Green looked at Danny. “How long had this been going on?” she asked. Danny could only shake his head and look at the floor. He knew if he said a word about this, he would have trouble at school.Danny hadn’t said anything about the problem because he wanted to do things with the boys in the neighborhood.

But it is also true that many children today are using computers at school before they can write. What does this mean for the future? Are these children lucky or not?Many people who do not know about computers think of them as machines that children play with.

202X天津市八年级英语上册期末阅读理解汇编doc一、八年级英语上册阅读理解专项训练1.阅读理解Have you ever wondered how and why a fall leaf changes color? We first have to understand what leaves are and what they do.Plants are the world's food factories. Plants take water from the ground and take CO2 from the air. Plants use sunlight to turn water and CO2 into glucose(葡萄糖). Glucose is a kind of sugar. Using it as food, plants get energy and grow. Plants using sunlight to turn water and CO2into sugar is called photosynthesis (光合作用). Chlorophyll helps photosynthesis. It gives plants their green color.As summer ends and autumn comes, the days get shorter and shorter, and trees "know" to begin getting ready for winter. During winter, there is not enough light or water for photosynthesis. Trees rest during this time and live on the food they store during the summer. They begin to shut down their food﹣making factories. As the green chlorophyll disappears from the leaves, we begin to see yellow and orange leaves. These colors have been in the leaves all the time. We just can't see them in the summer, because they are covered up by the green chlorophyll.The bright reds and purples we see in leaves are made mostly in autumn. In some trees, glucose is caught in the leaves after photosynthesis stops. Sunlight and the cool nights of autumn turn this glucose into a red color. The brown color of trees is made from waste left in the leaves. It is mixture of all these things. It makes the beautiful leaves during autumn.(1)The underline word "chlorophyll" in the passage means in Chinese.A. 胡萝卜素B. 叶绿素C. 维生素D. 花青素(2)When they rest in winter, trees live on the food they store during the .A. summerB. autumnC. winterD. spring(3)Plants use sunlight to turn into sugar.A. water and chlorophyllB. water and CO2C. CO2and glucoseD. water and glucose (4)What's the main idea of this passage?A. What's photosynthesis?B. How and why leaves change colors?C. Different kinds of leaves.D. How the seasons change.2.阅读理解Up to two thirds of children don't get as much sleep as they should do, and this can make them nervous and slow at school, researchers say.So how long should young people sleep each night? The answer is between 8 and 10 hours. If you don't get enough sleep at night, you'll have less energy the next day.But the researchers say many children have missed out on 4,500 hours of sleep by the time they are seven years old. They say that children miss sleep because they have TVs and computers in their rooms, and busy parents don't read to their younger children at night any more. The traditional “bedtime story” helps children to relax and fall asleep peacefully. Children with TVs and computers in their bedrooms were more likely to sleep badly, and to get less than eighthours' sleep. Even losing one hour's sleep a night can mean that children do less well at school.German scientists think that your brain keeps working while you're asleep. To show that they were right, they gave two groups of people a problem to work out. One group went to sleep, and the other group stayed awake. The result? The people who slept worked out the answer more quickly, suggesting their brains had been trying to find the answer while the people were asleep. So, make sure you get enough sleep tonight, and you'll be at your best tomorrow!(1)What happens to children at school if they don't get enough sleep?A. They walk more slowly.B. They can relax.C. They watch more TV.D. They do less well at school.(2)The main idea of the second paragraph is .A. how much sleep we needB. children don't get enough sleepC. our brains never really go to sleepD. TVs and computers are the problem(3)How does a bedtime story help children get a good sleep?A. It helps children to relax and fall asleep peacefully.B. Children lose more sleep.C. Children have more energy.D. Children get to sleep later.(4)Why is it better to sleep in a room without a TV or computer?A. You can read stories before you go to sleep.B. You sleep better and get more sleep.C. You have less energy.D. Your brain works better.(5)What did the German scientists' experiment show?A. Sleep helps children learn to read.B. Losing sleep means children don't learn well.C. Your brain works while you are asleep.D. Parents should read bedtime stories.3.阅读理解In 1969, humans landed on the moon for the first time.

【备考期末】天津市八年级英语上册期末阅读理解汇编
【备考期末】天津市八年级英语上册期末阅读理解汇编一、八年级英语上册阅读理解专项训练1.阅读理解Can you swim? Do you like swimming? Yes? Well, how can you learn to swim? I think the best way is to go into the water and learn. I'm afraid you'll never learn to swim just by reading books about swimming or looking at others swimming. It's the same with the English study. We must practice, practice and practice.Listening and speaking are very important for beginners. Especially for the children in English-speaking countries. First, listen to others. Then, try to imitate and speak. We can listen to English programs on radio. You may just understand a few words. It doesn't matter. Just be relaxed, try to catch every word. Somebody may be a good listener. But he dare not speak. He's afraid of making mistakes. You know we sometimes make mistakes when we speak Chinese. Don't be afraid. We must be brave. If you really want to learn English well, you must try to speak with everyone as long as he knows English. Whether you know him or not is not important, when there's nobody to talk with, you can talk to yourself in English. It's interesting and also a good way to practice your spoken English. Remember, the more you speak, the fewer mistakes you'll make.Reading and writing are more important for senior school students. First we must choose the books we're interested in. A lot of reading will improve your language sense. This is the most important.Keep writing English diaries. We can also write English articles. You may even post them to English magazines. Don't be afraid of failure. Failure is the mother of success.Easier said than done. Well, let's do more practice from now on. I'm sure you'll learn English well in this way.(1)You can learn to swim by _________.A. reading books about itB. looking at others swimmingC. having lessons on itD. going into the river and learning(2)We should learn English by _________.A. listening and speakingB. reading and writingC. both A and BD. swimming(3)What will you do with mistakes when you speak?A. Don't make mistakes.B. Study hard.C. Try not to speak English.D. Don't be afraid. 2.阅读理解"What! You too? I thought I was the only one." Have you ever said this to someone? If so, you may have ended up becoming friends with this person.It seemed that similarity often helps form friendships. The Greek philosopher(哲学家)Aristotle once said, "Some define(下定义) friendship as a matter of similarity. They say that we love those who are like ourselves."Now, there is some science behind this idea. Scientists from University of California said friends have similar brains, Scientific American reported.The scientists invited 42 university students to take part in an experiment. Each student watched the same set of videos, which included a comedy, a discussion and a soccer match. Meanwhile, scientists studied their brains and recorded their brain activity.According to their study, friends who watched the same video clips reacted in similar ways. Similar parts of their brains lit up while watching the videos, especially parts that were connected with motivation(动力), learning and memory.However, people who weren't friends had different reactions to the same clips."Having close friends whose brains react like ours may be rewarding because it makes one's won values, opinions, and interests strength," scientist Carolyn Parkinson told Business Insider. But brain similarity is not the only thing that can result in friendship. Scientists from the University of Leipzig, Germany, found that friendship is also based on how physically close you are to someone.They did an experiment with first-year college students who met in class for the first time. In this experiment, students who sat in neighbouring seats were more likely to become friends.(1)What does "this idea" in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. Many friendships start with small chats.B. Friends try to develop similarities between themselves.C. People with similarities may become friendsD. We like those who like us first.(2)The 42 university students in the experiment_____________.A. are all from the University of CaliforniaB. were close friends before the experimentC. watched the same set of videosD. reacted differently from each other(3)What did the study of the students' brains show?A. They had watched the same video clips.B. Friends had similar reactions to the same clips.C. Watching videos improves one's memory.D. It's good to have friends who react similarly.(4)According to the story , what else may help build friendship?A. Being fun and helpfulB. Studying at the same college.C. Having similar appearancesD. Being physically close.(5)The best title of the passage is "__________"A. What is friendshipB. Friends can think alikeC. An experiment about friendshipD. How can we build friendship3.阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

Somebody mentions hard-work, others suggest knowledge, love and luck.If you arrange(排列) the 26 English letters in order(顺序) and use numbers to represent each of them, for example, 1 for a, 2 for b, 3 for c…26 for z, you can change an English word into a number. So hard-work becomes 8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11=98, meaning 98 is its mark(分数). Knowledge: 11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5=96, love:12+15+22+5=54, and luck: 12+21+3+11=47, a small mark. None of these words can give one a full mark. What about money? It can’t , either. Then what else? Don’t be worried. You can always find an answer to a problem in your life, when you change your way of looking at things or doing things, or your attitude(态度). Yes, attitude is the word. See for yourself: attitude:1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5=100,a full mark.Different attitudes lead to(导致) different courses of life. Most time people hope for a better life. It is possible that they will have a better life if they change their attitudes. When you change your manner and became friendly towards others, you’ll meet more smiling faces towards you.

He was so well known for his wide knowledge of almost everything that lots of people from all over the country came to learn things from him. The great man taught his students whole—heartedly and answered their questions with great patience.One day a student asked him, “My dear teacher, didn’t you say you yourself have many, many more questions about things than we do? But I think we students have far more than you.”With a smile on his face, the teacher drew two circles,one as large as a big wheel, the other smaller. Then he said, “Of course, I’ve learned much more. But it’s wrong to think that a teacher has fewer questions than his students. Now, look at these two circles. The inside of the bigger one is my knowledge of things, and the inside of the smaller one is yours. Out of the circles is what is still unknown to us. Since mine is larger, I have to use the longer line to draw the bigger circle. That means I have more chances to face what is still unknown. And that’s why I mys elf have more questions than you do. The more you learn, the more questions you have. You will never learn enough, you know.So, there is no limit(限制) to knowledge. Whether the old or the young, everybody needs to learn every day. You have no right to be pleased with yourself, even though you are the first in your class or your school.根据短文内容,正确的写(A), 错误的写(B)1)The learned man was famous all over the world and respected by all the people.2)The teacher drew two circles to explain the student’s question.3)T he other smaller stands for the teacher’s knowledge.4)The more questions we have, the more knowledge we may get.5)From the passage we know it’s never too old to learn.12.阅读短文,从各题所给的三个答案中选择最佳答案回答问题或完成句子。
