This is what she told us about her job:“My office is at Heathrow Airport, but I spend 60% of my time in the air. I teach air-hostesses (空姐)and help them with any problem. I also go to lots of meetings. My hours are usually from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. but sometimes I work from 1 p.m. to 9 p.m. At work, the first thing I do is check plane times on my computer and then I speak with some of the air-hostesses.Sometimes I go on long flights to check how the air-hostesses are doing. That’s my favo urite part of the job, but I like office work, too. Traveling can be hard work. When I get back from a long trip, all I can do is to eat something and then go to bed!

We hadn’t seen each other for a few months, so I decided to start a talk with her. My cousin is studying in a college of our city. Her hobby is surfing the Internet. Every time I am on the computer, she is always online, listening to music or decorating her “personal space”. I like visiting her space. It’screative and modern. I can’t design such a colorful web page as hers.When I read the sentences she sent to me, I noticed that the Chinese characters had been changed, but I could still guess their meanings. I took a strong interest in this type of new characters. Further watching made me realize that they added some common Chinese radicals(部首) to the original characters, making them more vivid(生动), a little like Japanese. My cousin said this gives new life to the Chinese language and culture.It is true that the Internet has reinvented our language, but I still can’t a ccept this new change. Some Chinese characters have meanings in the shapes; one shouldn’t superficially(浅薄地)change them by adding an additional radical. So I advised my cousin to change her new idea and use standard characters to communicate. And she willingly accepted my advice.( )6. The author’s cousin was a(n) ________.A. engineerB. teacherC. modelD. student( ) 7. The author would like to visit his co usin’s space _________.A. because he wants to design a web pageB. because the music is well worth listening toC. because it is very creative and modernD. because it is the best one on the Internet ( ) 8. The second paragraph mainly tells us that ________.A. the Internet may have changed the Chinese charactersB. all the Chinese people have learned a lot from the InternetC. the QQ message online is very useful to everyoneD. the writer doesn’t like sending QQ messages( ) 9. The underlined word “reinvented” in the passage means “_________”.A. 摧毁B.改良C. 发现D.生产( ) 10. We can learn from this passage that _________.A. the writer is a teacher in a collegeB. the writer can design a creative webpageC. the Chinese characters have been changed into JapaneseD. the writer thinks people shouldn’t change our languages.【阅读表达】Having good manners is an important part of life. You know that you should never shout in public. But what about when it comes to the online world? When you use social media apps(社交媒体应用),like WeChat and Sina Weibo, you must also remember to mind your manners.For example, sometimes I need to add a new friend on WeChat. But I haven't met him or her yet in real life. So when I send them a friend request, I explain who I am and how I got their contact information.One of my friends likes to send really long voice messages on WeChat. It is difficult to keep up with all his messages and remember everything. I think this is a bit bad!There are many other things that you shouldn't do on social media. Take a look and remember to do your best to be polite.Don't share your friends' WeChat contact information with strangers. Ask your friend first before sharing.Don't add someone new to your group chat without askingthe other members. They might not want new people to join the group.If you use English, don't use all capital letters. IF YOU TYPE LIKE THIS, IT LOOKS LIKE YOU'RE SCREAMING. DON'T DO IT.1. What should you remember to do when you use social media apps?2. Why does the writer think it a bit bad to send really long voice messages on WeChat?3. Are social media apps like WeChat and Sina Weibo important in your life? Why or why not?【书面表达】请根据下列要点提示写一篇短文。

There are so many different kinds of museums and you first need to find one that you like. It's easy for you to choose one and start an enjoyable visit!Do some research online. Every museum now has a website which allows you to look through the information about it. On the website, you may look for such things as: •The exhibits(展品)–See what is on show at the museum at all times, and what special exhibitions are held for a short time.•The history of the museum –There will often be very interesting stories about the exhibits and the benefactors(捐赠者). That can make your visit more interesting.•Activities –See whether there are talks, tours our special activities on the day when you visit. Many museums hold some activities that meet the interests of all age groups.•C ost,food or shortage–It's important how much the visit will cost. You have to decide whether or not you can eat there. You might also need to find out transportation needs, as well as storage for coats, bags etc.Learn at least one thing on your visit. It is always good to take away something new from your visit.Plan breaks into your visit. When you walk around, standing here and studying exhibits there, you may become very tired. So it is important to take breaks. A break is a good opportunityfor you to think of what you have seen and what else you might want to do in museum.Take a friend or two. Visiting museums is always a lot more fun when you are with someone else. You can talk over what you’re seeing. A friend also brings another way of thinking when you talk about the exhibit.( )6.

His order always included three packets of my dad's tea. How Mr Green could drink that much tea each week was a mystery to me."See you later, Chen," said Dad.He always called me by my Chinese name.My dad's parents came from China in the 1950s. I had a one-yuan coin they brought with them. I cycled out into the sun, wishing I could drive—it would be so much quicker to make deliveries.Dad always said the exercise was good for me. I knew he was right, but I'd already decided that when I left home, the first thing I would do was to buy a car.I loved anything to do with cars, and I'd decided I would be a mechanic, although I knew it wasn't what Dad had in mind for me. He'd already started saying to his friends, "When Chen goesto university..." If that happened,I would be the first person in my family to go,and it would be a great honor for my dad.

Businesses canceled large meetings. Many movie theaters are closed. Church services and other religious events are canceled in many places. Tourists canceled vacation trips. Hotels, restaurants, and many other businesses are losing money. Planes, trains, buses, and taxis have no one to transport. Many university and college students are taking classes online.

That was several years ago, but Japan is still trying to clean up the nuclear waste from the accident.Many people don’t want nuclear power in their countries. They say that it’s not safe.

Sometimes they get together to show their strong disagreement with nuclear energy.Many people hate nuclear energy, but more and more countries are using it.

They are smart and adventurous. But a real spy’s life is not that exciting. They must live a life of lies. Their work is dangerous and they may have to pay for it with their lives. American spy Nathan Hale(1755-1776) was one of these people.Why does someone want to be a spy? Some do it for their country. Some for money. Some just love it. Nathan Hale became a spy for the first reason. He lived during the American Revolution (革命). He and his people fought the British army.In 1774, Hale joined the American army. Before that, he was a school teacher. Two years later, he chose to be a spy. He had to get information from the British army. He went to the city where the British army was staying. He told them that he was a school teacher and wanted to find a new job. As a young spy, Hale didn’t have enough experience. He had told his secret to somebody else. But that person sold him out to the British army. He tried to get information for the American army. Hale finally got something important and decided to go back. He hid some papers in his boots. Hewent to the river bank and waited for a boat to pick him up. However, British soldiers caught Hale at the river bank and found the papers in his boots.Hale died on Sept 22, 1776.

It’s unfair that his country didn’t bring him a reward.(G)When you are shopping for the week’s food, you may get a large box or two of bottled water. On your way to a soccer game, it’s easy to take a cold one out of the fridge, right?But all those plastic bottles use a lot of fossil fuels (矿物燃料). In fact,Americans buy more bottled water than any other country in the world, about 29 billion water bottles a year. In order to make all these bottles, 17 million barrels ( 桶) of crude oil are used. That’s enough oil to keep a million cars going for twelve months.Americans drink bottled water because they think it is better for them than water out of the tap, but that’s not true. In the United States, local governments make sure water from the tap is safe. People love the convenience ( 便利) of bottled water. But maybe if they realized the problems it causes, they would try drinking from a glass at home or carrying water in a steel container instead of a plastic bottle.Plastic bottles pollute the environment but recycling can help---instead of going out with the rubbish, plastic bottles can be turned into useful items. Sadly, for every six water bottles we use, only one makes it to the recycling bin. The rest are sent to landfills. Or, even worse, they end up as rubbish on the land and in rivers, lakes, and the ocean. Plastic bottles take many hundreds of years to disintegrate under the ground.Betty Mclaughlin, who runs an organization called the Container Recycling Institute, says we should try using fewer bottles: “If you take one to school in yourlunch, don’ t throw it away---bring it home and refill it from the tap for the next day. You refill a bottle as many times as you can before you recycle it. ”Remember this: Recycling one plastic bottle can save enough energy to power a 60-watt (瓦) light bulb for six hours.1. Which one is NOT the reason why Americans like bottled water?A. Because it is cleaner.B. Because it is cheaper.C. Because it is healthier.D. Because it is easier to take with.2. In Paragraph 2, how does the writer support the fact?A. By giving numbers.B. By telling reasons.C. By expressing opinions.D. By discussing problems.3. The word “disintegrate” in Paragraph 4 probably means “______________”.A. turn into rubbishB. become usefulC. break into piecesD. mix with water4. Which of the following is an opinion?A. Americans buy the most bottled water in the world.B. Bottled water is much better than that out of the tap.C. Only one of the six bottles is put into the recycling bin.D. 17 million barrels of oil are used to make bottles year.5. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this article?A. To tell us to give up bottled water.B. To tell us to save natural resources.C. To tell us to protect the environment.D.

Try laughing for no reason at all. That's how thousands of people start their day at Laughter Clubs around the world. and many doctors now think that having a good laugh might be one of the best ways to stay healthy.The first Laughter Club was started in Mumbai, India, in 1995 by Dr Madan Kataria."Young children laugh about 300 times a day. Adults laugh between 7 and 15 times a day, "says Dr Kataria. "Everyone's naturally good at laughing. It' s the universal language. We want people to feel happy with their lives."There are now more than 500 Laughter Clubs in India and over 1300 worldwide.Many doctors are also interested in the effects of laughter on our health. According to a 5-year study at the UCLS School of Medicine in California, with laughing there is less stress in the body. Laughter improves our health against illness by about 40%.So, what happens at a Laughter Club? I went along to my nearest illness club in south London to find out. I was quite nervous at the beginning of the class, to be honest, I wasn't interested in laughing with a group of strangers, and I was worried about looking stupid. Our laughter teacher told us to clap our hands and say" ho ho ho, ha ha ha, "while looking at each other. However, our bodies can't tell the difference between fake laughter and real laughter, so they still produce the same healthy effects. Surprisingly, it works! After ten minutes, everybody in the room was laughing for real and some people just couldn't stop! At the end of the class, I was surprised by。

Place a piece of raw carrot in your mouth and chew. Then, as you are still chewing, let go of your nose. Do you taste the difference?The sense of taste and the sense of smell work together as you eat The taste buds (味蕾)on your tongue have 4 nerve receptors(神经感受元)in them. They can respond to only four different tastes—sweet, sour, salty, and bitter. All the other hundreds of tastes come from how foods smell to you.Foods give off invisible (无形的)fumes (烟,气)that breathe into your nasal, passages (鼻道). The olfactory (嗅觉的)or smelling nerves (嗅感神经) react to these fumes and you become awareof (意识到)the specific smell of these foods.When you have a cold, however, your nasal passages are clogged (阻塞,填满)with mucus (黏液).Your sense of smell is cut off,just as it is when you hold your nose.When you can’t smell the foods you eat, it becomes hard to tell them apart.( )1. “Let go of your nose” means ______.A. t ake your nose awayB. r elease your hold of noseC. n ose aroundD. nose something out( )2.

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. Many people are shy when they speak English, so before you begin, take a deep breath and smile! Smiling always helps.The third question is about vocabulary. Oliver, from Anhui wrote, “I want to remember all the new words. I wrote them down, but I forget them quickly. What should I do?” Try to remember eight or nine 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?1. How many basic questions do the students often ask?A. Two.B. Three.C. Four.D. Five.2. What is Oliver’s problem?A. He’s too shy to talk with others.B. He’s not able to count English words.C. He can’t remember new words.D. He d oesn’t know what real English is.3. What’s the best title of this passage?A. How to learn EnglishB. Talking about English filmsC. Advice about English writingD. The way of beginning an English conversationLOver 30% of the natural world has been seriously destroyed by humans (人类) over the last 30 years. This is because the number of people living on Earth is nearly six billion (十亿). All of these people need food, space and energy. As a result, lots of Earth’s natural resources will be used up. When we destroy our earth to get natural resources such as wood or oil, animals often lose their living space. They cannot have enough food, and they will get hurt or die.The World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) is an international charity. It tries to prevent humans from destroying more of nature than is necessary. For example, in China WWF is working with the local government to reconnect (重新连接) some small lakes in Anhui Province to the Yangtze River and to create(创造) more protected areas so that China’s natural beauty will not be lost in the future. WWF works in more than 50 countries, saving rainforests and stopping hunters from killing rare animals and protecting traditional ways of life in areas where they are in danger of being lost. WWF’s main goal is to encourage development that does not harm the environment and the animals that live in it. Even though the charity is known all over the world, and a lot of people support the goals of WWF, not so many donate money often. This makes it difficult for the charity to do all the things it wants to do.1. Why has over 30% of the natural world been destroyed?A. Because hunters are killing rare animals.B. Because not enough people help WWF.C. Because WWF does not have enough money.D. Because there are so many people living on Earth.2. How has WWF helped in China?A. They have protected traditional ways of life.B. They have helped to protect China’s natural beauty.C. They have saved many rainforests in Anhui Province.D. They have built some bridges over the Yangtze River.3.What is WWF’s main goal?A. To save rainforests.B. To stop hunters killing rare animals.C. To get more people to donate money.D. To protect the environment while developing.4.Why is it difficult for WWF to do all the things they want to?A. Because too many people do not know WWF.B. Because WWF doesn’t have enough money from donationsC. Because there are too many problems for them to solve.D. Because WWF doesn’t encourage development.参考答案A文章大意:本文介绍了目前中国最红的童星之一“小杰克逊”王一鸣,他因为能惟妙惟肖地模仿杰克逊而出名。

阅读组合训练英语八年级Reading and Combination Training for 8th Grade EnglishLearning a language is a continuous process that requires consistent practice and dedication. For 8th-grade students, the focus on reading and combination training in English is crucial for developing their language proficiency. This essay will delve into the significance of reading and combination training in the context of 8th-grade English language learning.Reading is a fundamental skill that underpins language acquisition. It exposes students to a vast array of vocabulary, grammatical structures, and idiomatic expressions. Through reading, students can better understand the nuances of the language, improve their comprehension, and expand their linguistic horizons. In the 8th grade, students should be encouraged to engage with a wide range of literary genres, from fiction and non-fiction to poetry and plays. This exposure not only enhances their reading skills but also broadens their cultural understanding and critical thinking abilities.Furthermore, reading can be a powerful tool for language learning when coupled with combination training. Combination traininginvolves the integration of various language skills, such as reading, writing, listening, and speaking, to create a more comprehensive and effective learning experience. By engaging in combination training, 8th-grade students can apply the knowledge and skills they acquire through reading to other language-related tasks, reinforcing their understanding and improving their overall language proficiency.One effective approach to combination training is the use of reading comprehension exercises. These exercises challenge students to read passages, analyze the content, and demonstrate their understanding through a variety of tasks, such as answering questions, identifying main ideas, and drawing connections between different parts of the text. This not only strengthens their reading skills but also requires them to engage in critical thinking, problem-solving, and written expression.Another valuable aspect of combination training is the incorporation of writing exercises. By encouraging students to write responses, summaries, or essays based on their reading, teachers can help them develop their written communication skills, improve their grasp of grammar and syntax, and foster their ability to organize and express their thoughts effectively. This integration of reading and writing further solidifies the students' language skills and prepares them for more advanced academic and professional demands.Listening and speaking activities can also be seamlessly integrated into combination training. Students can listen to audio recordings or engage in discussions based on the texts they have read, allowing them to practice their comprehension, pronunciation, and verbal expression. These activities not only reinforce their language skills but also promote effective communication and collaboration, which are essential for academic and social success.In the 8th-grade context, combination training in English can be further enhanced by incorporating real-world applications and cultural elements. For instance, students can be asked to read articles or literature related to their local community, current events, or global issues, and then engage in activities that require them to analyze, compare, and share their perspectives. This approach not only strengthens their language skills but also cultivates their cultural awareness, critical thinking, and problem-solving abilities.Moreover, technology can play a significant role in facilitating and enhancing combination training in 8th-grade English. Online platforms, educational software, and digital resources can provide students with a diverse array of reading materials, interactive exercises, and collaborative learning opportunities. By leveraging technology, teachers can create a more engaging and personalized learning environment, catering to the diverse learning styles and needs of their students.In conclusion, the emphasis on reading and combination training in 8th-grade English is crucial for developing well-rounded language proficiency. By engaging in a comprehensive approach that integrates various language skills, students can strengthen their understanding of the English language, improve their communication abilities, and cultivate essential critical thinking and problem-solving skills. As 8th-grade students navigate the exciting journey of language learning, a focus on reading and combination training will undoubtedly equip them with the necessary tools to succeed in their academic and personal endeavors.。

Tokyo One offers us the following information except _______.A. locationB. telephone numberC. websiteD. food priceBHave you ever stayed in a hotel? Most Chinese hotels often provide guests with things like disposable (一次性的) toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoo and slippers. Many guests like the idea because they don't have to bring their own. But, if you travel to Beijing, remember to bring your own things. Starting from June, some hotels in Beijing will no longer provide guests with these disposables. They want to ask people to use less disposable things.Many disposable things are made of plastic. People throw them away after only using them once. It is a waste of natural resources (资源) and is very bad for the environment. Do you know, one Chinese person makes as much as 400kg of waste a year! Most of that waste comes from disposable things. In Beijing, people throw away about 19,000 tons of plastic bags and 1,320 tons of plastic lunch bowls every year! Plastic can take between 100 and 400 years to break down. So the less plastic we throw out, the better. So, wherever you travel, bring your own things and use them again and again.Back at home and school, you can also do something to make our world a better place. Try to do these things in your dailylife: Use cloth shopping bags, not plastic ones. After using a plastic bag, washit out and let it dry. Then you can use it over and over again. Do not use paper cups. At your school canteen(食堂), use your own bowl and chopsticks instead of disposable ones.( ) 1.

What can we do to make our world a better place at home and school?A. Use shopping bags made of plastic.B. Do not throw away paper cups.C. Use disposable plates, bowls and chopsticks.D.
