英语课外阅读二(一)Many lovers like to hang their love locks on famous tourist sites. They hope their love will be remembered forever. For example, in Paris, there is a bridge called Pont des Arts. Lots of people often go there and hang their love locks on the bridge. But what if there are too many love locks on the bridge? What will happen to the bridge? Of course, too many love locks might cause trouble because they are too heavy.Two years ago, the city of Paris began to remove love locks from two of its bridges. There were more than one million love locks on the two bridges, weighing about 65 tons. They could be too heavy for the bridges to bear.How did Paris deal with so many love locks? It decided to remove the love locks and sell them to the public. So far, those love locks haven't been sold out. If you are interested in them, you can buy one of them.The income from selling the love locks will go to refugee( 难民) groups. It is a good way to make use of the love locks. The love locks will spread love to the refugees. 一、全文翻译许多相爱的人喜欢把他们的爱情锁挂在著名的旅游胜地。

渡舟阅读答案

渡舟阅读答案

渡舟①生命的日子里,有晴天,也会有阴天、雨天、雪天。

②人生的路上,有平川坦途,也会撞上没有舟的渡口、没有桥的河岸。

③烦恼、苦闷常常像夏日里的雷雨,突然飘过来,将心淋湿。

挫折、苦难常常猝不及防地扑过来,你甚至来不及发出一声叹息就轰然被击倒。

④倒在挫折的岸边,苦难的岸边,四周是无边的黑暗,没有灯火,没有星星,甚至没有人的气息。

恐怖和绝望从黑暗里伸出手来紧紧地钳住可怜的生命。

有的人倒在岸边再没爬起来,有的人在黑暗里给自己折了一只船,将自己摆渡到对岸。

⑤二十岁忽然残了双腿的史铁生,为自己折了一只船。

这是一只名为“写作号”的船。

他是在看穿了“死是一件无须着急的事,是一件无论怎样耽搁也不会错过的事”,才在轮椅里给自己折了这只船,将自己从死亡的诱惑里摆渡出来,“决定活下去试试”。

⑥正攻读博士学位,却患上了运动神经细胞病,不能说、不能动的史蒂芬•霍金,做了一场自己被处死的梦。

梦醒后,万念俱灰的他突然意识到,如果被赦免的话,他还能做许多有价值的事情。

于是他给自己折了一只思想的船,驶进了神秘的宇宙,去探讨星系、黑洞、夸克、“带味的粒子”、“自旋”的粒子、“时间”的箭头……⑦在苦难的岸边匆匆折成的船,成了不幸命运的救赎之路。

⑧也许一生中我们不会遭遇这样的大灾难,然而我们何曾摆脱过阴天、雨天、雪天,何曾摆脱过绝望的纠缠!折磨人生的情景,常常突然间就横亘在面前。

⑨当我们知道苦难是生命的常态,烦恼、痛苦总相伴人生时,我们何必要自怨自艾早早地放弃,早早地绝望?⑩有的人将求生的本能折成一只船,将自己摆渡出绝望的深渊。

有的人将新的欲望折成一只船,渡过了挫折后的痛苦与沮丧。

有的人将希望折成一只船,驶过了重重叠叠的黑暗。

实在无船可渡的人,哪怕用幻想折只小船呢,也要奋力将自己摆渡到对岸。

也许我们不曾经历感情的剧痛,不曾经历失败的打击,不曾经历无路可走的绝望,可是晴朗的日子里也常会有阴风晦雨袭来。

它像一只乌鸦扇着翅膀在你周围鼓噪着,足以将一个好心情蹂躏得乱七八糟。

初中英语阅读教程八年级上册Understanding the world around us can be a complex task, especially when it comes to the intricacies of language and culture. However, the journey of learning English as a second language can be an enlightening experience, opening doors to global communication and understanding.In the eighth grade, students are often at a pivotal point in their language learning journey. They have moved beyond the basics and are now diving into more complex structures and ideas. At this stage, reading becomes a crucial tool for language acquisition and cultural exploration. Through reading, students can encounter a variety of text types, from fictional narratives to informative articles, each offering unique challenges and learning opportunities.One of the key aspects of reading at this level is the development of critical thinking skills. Students are encouraged to not only understand the text but also to analyze and question the information presented. This involves looking for the author's purpose, identifying the main ideas and supporting details, and evaluating the effectiveness of the text.To foster these skills, a reading curriculum might include a diverse selection of materials. For instance, a narrative about a teenager's adventures in a new country can provide insights into cultural differences and the challenges of adapting to new environments. Similarly, an article discussing the latest technological advancements can stimulate curiosity and encourage students to think about the impact of technology on society.Vocabulary development is another essential component of a middle school English reading curriculum. By encountering new words in context, students can expand their lexicon and learn to use these words in their own writing and speaking. This not only enhances their ability to express themselves but also their comprehension of more complex texts.Grammar and syntax are also emphasized at this stage. Understanding the structure of the English language helps students to construct their own sentences correctly and to comprehend the nuances of meaning in the texts they read. Activities that involve sentence construction, identifying parts of speech, and practicing verb tenses are common in the classroom.Cultural awareness is woven throughout the curriculum, as students explore texts from different English-speaking countries. This exposure helps them to appreciate the diversity of the English language and the various ways it can be used to convey meaning.In conclusion, the eighth-grade English reading curriculum is designed to be a comprehensive program that not only improves language proficiency but also fosters a deeper understanding of the world. Through a combination of reading, critical thinking, vocabulary building, and cultural exploration, students are equipped with the tools they need to navigate the complexities of the English language and to engage with the global community.This journey through language and culture is not just about acquiring a skill but about opening one's mind to new perspectives and possibilities. It is a path that leads to personal growth, intellectual development, and a greater sense of connection with people from all walks of life. As students continue to explore, learn, and question, they become not just better English readers but also more informed and empathetic global citizens. 。

八年级英语下册(江西专版)人教版八年级下册英语 文章 《鲁滨逊漂流记》

八年级英语下册(江西专版)人教版八年级下册英语  文章    《鲁滨逊漂流记》

《鲁滨逊漂流记》《鲁滨逊漂流记》是英国小说家丹尼尔•笛福的代表作,是一部流传很广,影响很大的文学名著。

它表现了强烈的资产阶级进取精神和启蒙意识。

作者用生动逼真的细节把虚构的情景写得使人如同身临其境,使故事具有强烈的真实感。

小说主人公鲁滨逊也成为欧洲文学史上一个著名的文学形象。

我父亲原来指望我学法律,但是我却一心想去航海。

有一天,我去赫尔城,我的一位同伴正要坐他父亲的船到伦敦去,再没有什么比这更让我动心了,我必须跟他而去——这是1651年的8月,当时我十九岁。

船刚驶出海口,便碰到了可怕的风浪,使我感到全身说不出的难过,心里十分恐怖。

我在痛苦的心情中发了誓,假如上帝在这次航行中留下我的命,我在登上陆地后,就一直回到我慈爱的父母身边,从此一定听从他们的忠告办事。

可是第二天风停了,浪也歇了。

太阳西沉,继之而来的是一个美丽可爱的黄昏,这时又喝了我的同伴酿的一碗甜酒,我就把这次航行后便回家的决心丢到九霄云外去了。

我的这种习性给我的一生招来了巨大的不幸——任性的行动常给我带来灾难,可我总不肯在灾难来临的时刻乘机悔改。

待到危险一一过去,就忘掉了所有的誓言,又不顾一切地投入了我的毫无名堂的生活。

在第一次狂风暴雨似的航行后,我又有过几次不同的冒险。

在去非洲的几内亚做生意时,我被一艘土耳其的海盗船俘虏,被卖为奴隶,经过许多危险,我逃到了巴西,在那里独自经营一个甘蔗种植园,生活过得很顺遂。

可这时我却又成了诱惑的牺牲品。

巴西因为人工不足,有几个种植园主知道我曾为做生意而到过非洲的一些奴隶市场口岸,他们竭力哄诱我作一次航行,到那一带去为他们的种植园买些黑奴回来。

听从坏主意,人就会倒霉。

我们的船在南美洲北岸一个无名岛上触了礁,所有的水手及乘客全都淹死了,上帝保佑,只有我一个人被高高的海浪卷到了岸上,保住了一条命。

当时我所有的只是一把刀、一只烟斗和一个盒子里装的一点儿烟草。

待到我的体力恢复,可以走路了时,我就沿着海岸走去。

使我大为高兴的是,我发现了淡水。
