牛津译林版八年级上册英语期中复习：任务型阅读练习题精选We all know that everyone has his own dream as well as his own future. But do you know what future really is? I have to say that future is now. That is to say we must treasure (珍惜) every minute now. If we want to have a bright future, we should know how important time is and use it well.There is an old English saying: “Gain time, gain life.”Then what’s time? Time is something that we can’t see or touch, but we can feel it passing by. Time is always with us. When we are at table, time passes; when we play, time goes by unnoticeably. We always say “Time is money”, but time is even more precious (珍贵的) than money, because when money is spent, we can earn it back. But if time is gone, it will never return (回来). So, some of us even say time is priceless.We should always remember: future is now. For us students, we should work hard in order to make our own future better. We should make the best use of every hour and be the master of today. We should do what we can to do everything as well as possible. And never put off what we can do today till tomorrow.As we all know, “Time and tide wait for no man.”If you waste today, you will regret (后悔) tomorrow. So from now on, work hard. Tomorrow will be better, and your future will be brighter. Remember: “No pains, no gains.”Today’s hard work is the cause(原因) of tomorrow’s harvest.Title: Future and 11. ___Today / Present___2. __useful_3. __Time___4. __come___5. __best__DIY means making or creating things on your own, with your own hands. It may take much time, but some people, now known as DIYers —do-it-yourselfers, enjoy doing it very much. They are interested in it because it is fun. And they also say it helps them save money, too. What’s more, they think it is a good way to protect the environment. It is a kind of green life. In fact, DIY is not a modern thing in China. Many people remember when it was once a way of life in the past. During the 1960s and 1970s, when there were not enough living things for people to live on, they had to use their own hands to do many things. If you wanted something, you had to do it yourself, and if you needed something, you made it yourself.Times have changed and DIY also has different meanings.。

The survey shows if people want to live longer and more happily, you need to have some friends who can share your sadness and happiness or can be helpful when you are in trouble.The following friends are just what you need to keep the doctor away.A Loyal Best FriendEveryone needs a friend who will support you in different situations. This kind of friend knows all of your deepest and darkest secrets, but still loves you all the same.A Friendly NeighborThese days, a lot of people don’t know their own neighbours. It’s a s hame, because some neighbors can be the most helpful people. If you forget to lock the front door when you are on holiday, you can call your neighbors to lock it for you. So it’s wonderful to have nice and helpful neighbors.A WorkmateYou’ll find it much easier to chat with someone than eating lunch along every day. Your workmate doesn’t have to be your best friend. If you two get along with each other, you can always start going out with them outside of the office.A Friend from a Different CultureIf everyone has a friend from a different culture, the world would be much better. Remember that don’t be friends with someone just because they are from a different culture.

It reminds people not to wastefood and fight hunger.A number of people in the world still don’t have enough food to eat. The food shortage(短缺) is a big problem all over the world. Now, there are more than 1000 million hungry people in the world according to the UN. Many children go to sleep hungry, and 15 million of them die of hunger each year.There are several reasons for food shortage. First, there are more natural disasters. Also, a growing population(人口) makes feeding everyone more difficult.Another big reason is food waste. Most people don’t realize how much food they throw away every day. The average(平均的) person throws away 50kg of food every year. According to the UN, more than one third of all food goes to waste each year.Over 1,300 billion kilograms of food is wasted each year. The food wasted in Europe can feed 200 million people, while in Latin America 300 million a year.So think twice before you throw away food. You’d better order as much food as you can eat at a restaurant. If you can’t eat all, take the rest home. Some food may not taste great, but your body needs it. Keep an eye on what food you have at home. Don’t buy too much. Don’t cook too much.When you throw away food, you are not just wasting the food itself. Resources(资源), such as energy, time and water, are also wasted while growing and cooking. So everyone should know that it is important to save food. Saving food is saving ourselves.Title: Introduction to World Food DayThe UN’s purpose(目的) to start this dayTo remind people not to 56 food and fight hunger.Facts of food shortage ◆57 1,000 million people are hungry each year.◆15 million children 58 their lives because of hunger each year.◆There are more 60 disasters now.◆The number of people is becoming 61 .59 for foodshortage◆The problem of food waste is serious all over the world.62 to stop food waste ◆63 order more than you can eat at a restaurant.◆Take the rest of food home if you can’t eat all you’ve ordered.◆Be sure not to 64 more food at home than you need.Conclusion Everyone should know the 65 of saving food.56. waste 57.

They are in Yancheng，Jiangsu Province. They are home for many different kinds of birds and animals. The world’s largest Milu Deer Nature Reserve（自然保护区）is in them. More than 700 milu deer live freely there. There are not many red-crowned cranes (丹顶鹤) in the world，but every winter you can see some in the Red-crowned Cranes Nature Reserve in the Yellow Sea Wetlands.The temperature in the wetlands is usually neither too high nor too low. There is a lot of rain and sunshine，too. They are really good places for wildlife. Offering food and home for some special kinds of animals and birds is not the only reason why we need to protect wetlands. Wetlands are important because they also stop flood(洪水). But some people want to change the wetlands to make more space for farms and buildings. This means there will be less and less space for wildlife.Luckily, more and more people are beginning to realize the importance of wetlands and wildlife. Every year, on February 2nd, many activities are held to tell people more about wetlands.( )1. The Chinese Yellow Sea Wetlands are in the _______ of China.A. eastB. southC. westD. north( )2.

However, we haven't found life on other planets yet.The Earth is a planet and it goes around the Sun. Seven other planets also go around the Sun. None of them has an environment with air, so people and things cannot grow. The Sun and its planets are called the solar system(太阳系). The solar system is a small part of our galaxy(星系).Scientists have also discovered many other galaxies in the universe. But they are a long way away because their light has travelled for many years to reach us.

It seems this may be a little difficult. But students from Xi’an did it.On April 10, more than 60 students from the Middle School Attached to Northwestern Poly technical University took part in the One Yuan Metropolis Survival. The charitable organization for teenagers called Imperceptible Education held this activity. Students not only have to live, but they also have to deal with a lot of hard tasks. It has happened in eight cities and is going to four others, including Beijing, in June.To make money, many students looked for part-time jobs and saw how hard life was. Zhang Qiyue, 14, asked more than 10 restaurants for a job and finally got one chance. “We were sad when they said no. But gradually(逐渐地), we got used to it,” he said.

Everybody in the United States uses this word again and again every day and everywhere. You pick up the phone and the first word you hear is “hello!” You meet a friend in the street and the first word you say is “hello!”Where did the word come from? The American inventor(发明家), Thomas Edison, was the first person to use “hello” in the late 18th century soon after the invention of the telephone.At first people greeted each other on the phone with “Are you there?” They were not sure the new thing could really carry voices.

He found a group of family members shouting in anger at each other. He turned to his students and asked: “Why do people shout in anger at each other?”His students thought for a while, and one of them said: “Because when we lose our calm, we shout.”“But, why should you shout when the other person is just next to you? You can just as well tell him what you have to say in a soft manner,” said the wise man.Students gave some other answers but none were any good.“When two people are angry at each other, their hearts become distanced(疏远的),” the wise man explained. “To cover that distance they must shout to be able to hear each other. The angrier they are, the louder they will have to shout to hear each other and cover that great distance.”The wise man then gave an example: “What happens when two people fall in love? They don’t shout at each other but talk softly because their hearts are very close. When they love each other even more, what happens? They don’t need to talk. They only look at each other and that’s all. That is how close two people are when they love each other.”He looked at his students and said: “So when you argue, do not let your hearts get distant. Do not say words that distance you from others. Otherwise, there will come a day when the distance is so great that you will not find the path to return.”51. What did they find when a wise man and his students were visiting a village?A. A group of people were traveling there.B. A group of family members were playing there.C.

When we argue, don’t let hearts become distant.(C)Hi, everybody! I’m Max, now I'm studying in an international school in Canada. Students here also spend much time on homework. How difficult the homework is depends on (取决于) what subject you are learning.For English, we usually put together presentations(展示). I will look for some information on the Internet. For example, I’m working on a one-minute presentation about recent Canadian news.I read about lots of news, and I will choose one thing to write about. Doing presentations is a good way to practice speaking skills and build confidence(自信). I still feel shy talking in front of many people. But my English has really become better.For geography and history, we usually do paper work and make posters. It takes a lot of time. We spent about a month on one article last year. We had to make outlines (提纲) and write out the main ideas. Our teacher fixed them and then we could start to write. For the posters, you can print or draw them. Last week, our teacher asked us to make a poster about our sense of place. So weput two pictures of our favorite places and wrote 10 words to describe them.Science was very hard for me at first. And it took me an hour to read three pages. But as I learn more and more words, I understand it better. Even if I don’t understand all the words, I can mostly guess what it is saying. So I get faster and faster at doing my homework.No matter what homework you get, just try your best.56. What decides the difficulty of students’ homework according to the passage?A. The teachers.B. The subjects.C. The students.D. The confidence.57. From Paragraph 2, we know that the writer has made her English better by ________.A. surfing a lot onlineB. reading Canadian newsC. working on presentationsD. building confidence from daily life58. In what order does the writer usually write an essay?①Get the outline back and start to write the essay.②Wait for the teacher to give some suggestions.③Make an outline and write down the main ideas.A. ①②③B. ③②①C. ③①②D. ②③①59. The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 means ________.A. the English presentationB. the geography posterC. the history essayD. the science homework60. What can we learn from the passage?A. Of all the subjects the writer likes science most.B. The writer always tries her best to complete her homework.C. Homework in Canada is more difficult than in China.D. Doing homework is a piece of cake for the writer.46-50CDCAD 1-55 DCBAD 56-60 BCBDBAWhat can you do when someone hurts you? Most people may be angry or even fight with theone who hurts him or her. But it’s not a good idea. The best way is to forgive(原谅) them.It is not easy for us to forgive people who hurt us, but it is possible. “ Forgiveness makes you more hopeful. And it is good for our health,” says Frederic, Ph D, the writer of the book called Forgive for God.But how can we forgive others?First, think of something beautiful and try to get yourself happy.Second, don’t want others to say sorry to you. If the people hurt you, he or she won’t say sorry to you. They may just want to hurt you or they just don’t see things the same way.Third, try to see things in others’ shoes. You can write a letter to yourself from the offender’s(冒犯者) point. That can make you understand others better and make yourself happier.At last, don’t forget to forgive yourself. For some people, forgiving themselves is the biggest challenge(挑战). And it also makes you more confident(自信).31.What’s the Chinese meaning of the underlined sentence?A.站在别人的鞋上看问题。

牛津译林版八年级英语上册专题练习--任务型阅读理解Creating a study planStudying is important to students. But it is always difficult to find enough time to study every subject you need. So a good plan helps you to make sure of your success in study.Then, how to make a study plan? Well, you can begin with listing all the subjects you need to study and make sure what you need to do for each subject. Next,you should decide how much time you should spend on differentsubjects. Now, it is a good idea to study at the same time every day.In this way, you actually have a plan you can remember easily.While arranging ( 安排) time for each subject, you also need tomake sure that you still have time for family, friends and rest. Thisis because you won't be able to succeed in your studies unless you balance Your personal life and your study.Once the plan is made, the next thing you need to do is to follow it. One of the biggest challenges in following your study plan is that you will be tempted ( 诱惑) to avoid it and do something relaxing, or fun instead. Luckily, you can fight this temptation by taking breaks. But be sure not to take extra breaks or too long breaks as it can affect your plan. So at the start of your break，set an alarm clock to remind you when your break is over. Also, you need to use your break wisely. For example, go for a short walk, eat a small snack, or listen to some music.To avoid forgetting to follow your plan, try to get into the habit of looking at your calendar every day. Sometimes our plans are herd to follow because some important people in our lives distract ( 使分心) us from our goals. In order to avoid this, tell people in your life about your plan. Put up a copy of your study guide at home so you and your family can see it, and email a copy to your friends so they know when you have spare time.Creating a study planThe(76) _________ of a study plan.

Just when you think you nearly reach it, something unexpected happens. This may puzzle you a lot.Here are some tips for helping you find happiness.Don’t put all your eggs in one basket. If you depend on one thing or one person to make you happy, it may be impossible. You need to enlarge your circle of friends and activities.Follow your heart. When we go against our own thoughts, we usually feel sad. Follow your strong feeling and let it guide you through your life. Day by day, you will be happier than before.Organize your ideas. Many people push away happiness when they think too much. Don't keep everything in head. Try to make a list of the things that you find difficult to do. You may find the list isn’t as long as you thought. You can do most of the things on your own.Look at your life as a whole. Most of the things that prevent us from feeling happy are just some little things.Remember that life will always continue, and everything will be fine in the end.Happiness can be hard to feel at times, but don’t feel worried.

Cherie Blair, wife of former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, said that she would prepare a packed lunch for her son if school dinners do not improve. So what do students of your age eat for lunch at school?JapanHigh schools have canteens, which serve everything from noodles to rice, but not burgers and chips. Other children bring food from home such as cold rice balls, meat or fish, pickles(泡菜) and vegetables.Students take home a menu for the coming month containing notes on nutrition value.Twice a year parents are invited to have a taste of the food. The class with the fewest leftovers(剩饭) at the end of the month receives a prize.United StatesA typical menu from a US school is made up of a hamburger with fried potatoes or roast chicken, lettuce and pickles, fruit and cookies. School lunches must also provide at least one-third of the daily dietary allowances(定量) of protein, vitamin A, vitamin C, iron, calcium and calories.AustraliaMeat pies, sausage rolls and hot dogs are all traditional dishes in Australian school shops. But as the nation pays more attention to children’s health, healthier foods have started to find their way onto school menus.Many schools have used a traffic light system. The sale of red-labeled foods, including pastries, chocolate and soft drinks, is served only twice a week. Healthier green-labeled foods such as sushi, sandwiches, corn and watermelon, however, are available every day.In some schools, students have a choice of up to 89 foods to choose from, including popcorn and rice.South AfricaMost of South Africa's schools do not serve meals at all. Classes end at 1:30 pm and students get their own lunches. Many students bring food from home, usually sandwiches.Fast food and fried food sell the best among students, which has led to a rise in obesity among children. But as more people began to realize the fact that being too fat may cause different diseases, some schools in towns have led the way towards better nutrition(营养). Now students at these schools are provided with lunches of porridge with vegetables, such as cabbages, onions, beans, carrots and tomatoes.Schools serve different foods in different (71) _____.Japan In high schools, children can buy everything, such as noodles and rice.

If you answered much happier, then you were right, according to a study in 2008. It found that people always become happier and experience less worry after age fifty. In fact, it found that by the age of eighty-five, people are happier with their life than they were at eighteen.The findings came from a Gallup survey of more than three hundred forty thousand adults in the United States in 2008. At that time, the people were between the ages of eighteen and eighty-five.Arthur Stone, a professor at Stony Brook University in New York led the study. His team found that adults between the ages of twenty-two and twenty-five had more life problems. Stress levels dropped sharply after people reached their fifties.Happiness was the highest among the youngest adults and those in their early seventies. The survey also found that men and women have similar emotional patterns (情感状态) as they grow older. However, women at all ages reported more sadness, stress and worry than men did.The researchers also considered possible influences like having young children, losing jobs or being single.But they found that influences like these did not affect the levels of happiness connected to the age.So why would happiness grow with age? One theory is that, as people get older, they become more thankful for what they have and have better control of their emotions (感情). They also spend less time thinking about bad experiences.Happiness is not the only thing that obviously improves with the age. In a study, people intheir eighties reported the fewest problems with their sleep.Scientists wanted to make people know that aging is connected with more sleep problems. For people, sleep is very important. The survey did find an increase during middle age, especially in women. But except for that, people reported that they felt their sleep quality improved as they got older.The 81 of a study in 200881. findings 82. something 83. eighteen 84. ages 85. highest86.

Many teenagers think that happiness comes from a good exam result or praise(赞扬)from other people. But you can still be happy when there are no such "good" things.Success comes from a good attitude(态度).If you learn from problems, you will have success in the future.Some school students have problems, such as being too tall or too short. But Matthews tells us that happiness comes from thinking in a positive(积极的)way. If you are tall, people notice you and you can get a better view(视线)at the movie; if you are short, your clothes and shoes take less room in your bedroom!This is Matthews' most important lesson; You choose to be happy!1.

We scanned(扫描)his microchip(微芯片)and we could find out his owner. The cat, whose name is Spas, has been missing for 12 years! " said a doctor. It is a way to recognize pets by scanning their microchips if the stray animals belong to anyone who muld be missing them It also allows animal services to know if the animals have a family waiting for them Linda was very thankful that she had Spas taken the microchip and was so excited to get him back!"I have a second chance to play with my cat, " she said.

They happen during "Hurricane Season", which is from June 1st until November 30th in the Atlantic Ocean and from May 15th until November 30th in the Pacific Ocean.Categories(类别)of Hurricanes: There are five categories of hurricanes, which are based on wind speeds. The categories help people know how much damage(危害)a hurricane may cause because the greater the wind speed, the more dangerous the storm is. For example, a Category 5 hurricane has winds over 155 miles per hour, which are strong enough to destroy the buildings along the shorelines completely.Hurricane Dangers: When a hurricane happens together with heavy rainfall, there can be a devastating flood. The centre of a hurricane is called the eye. While most of a hurricane has dangerously strong winds, the eye is actually(事实上) a calm area in the storm. When the eye of a hurricane passes over land, people might think that it's over, but before long the wind and rain increase again as the second part of the hurricane moves through.Hurricane Safety Tips: There is no way to stop a hurricane or make it change direction, so if you ever find yourself in the path of a hurricane, be sure to remember the following safety tips.●Be sure you have a radio, batteries, fresh drinking water, and enough food.●Tell neighbours, friends, and family members your emergency plans. Tell them where you'll go if you need to leave your home.●If you live near the ocean, leave your home and travel to a safe place. You could stay with a friend or a family member, in a hotel or in an emergency shelter area.●Stay inside during the storm. You could be seriously injured(受伤)if you go outside.1. When is Hurricane Season in the Atlantic Ocean?2. What are categories of hurricanes based on?3. What is called the eye?4. How many hurricane safety tips are mentioned(提到)in the passage?5. What should you do most probably if a hurricane happens?(自拟一句话)JEveryone needs friends. A friend can give us help and share our difficulties and happiness.

You should try to make a stranger feel at home wherever he happens to be. Think more of others than of yourself and never judge a person by his appearance and clothes.Second, friends should negotiate(商量)instead of quarrel(争吵)，When you don't agree with someone, please discuss with him.Finally, never believe in those who leave you when you are in trouble. And never leave your friend when he is in trouble. Remember, a friend in need is a friend indeed.Friends should be faithful to each other. So long as you can put your friend's interests in front of yours, you will have a lot of good friends.1. Why do we need friends?2. If we smile at others, what will happen?3. Put the underlined part into Chinese.4. What kind of people shouldn't we believe?5.

牛津译林版八年级英语上册分类练习：任务型阅读(含答案)
牛津译林版八年级英语上册分类练习：任务型阅读Good morning, boys and girl. Today I’ll give a talk about going online.We know that there are too many net bars around us. The Internet can make our lives interesting and enjoyable（令人愉快的）. Many of us like going online very much because we can learn how to use the computer. We can learn English and read some newspapers and magazines to know more around us. It can make us clever in playing computer games. Also when we can send e-mails to our friends，they can get them at once. It can help us communicate(交流)with people from all over the world.But some students spend too much time playing computer games and some stay in the net bars all day and all night. Some girls even get to have boyfriends or some boys get to have girlfriends online. They write too many letters to each other. It takes them too much time to chat online so they do worse in their lessons and they don’t study well any more. I think we mustn’t get online when it is time for us to study. We can do it in summer or winter holidays. I think we should get online with our teachers or parents.At the same time, if we have lots of free time, we can do some activities after school. We usually have activities from 4:50 to 5:50 in the afternoon . You can play basket ball or football. We also have some interest groups in school, such as drawing, singing and dancing. We can go to the English corner on Monday afternoon. We hope we can spend more time on our subjects or on such activities that we can learn a lot from and less time on the Internet.Title: A ____76_____ about going onlineAdvantages (优点) ● Make our lives interesting and make us____77____ our lives.● Learn how to use the computer and can get more information.● Send e-mails to our friends _____78_______.● Help us get in touch with people from______79_______ the world.Disadvantages （缺点）● It _____80______ them too much time to play computer games.● Some students write too____81_____ letters to each other and spend too much time _____82_____ online so they do worse in their lessons.Tips_____83____ it in summer or winter holidays; do some ____84_____activities and have some ____85_____ groups in school.76.talk 77. love/enjoy/love 78. quickly 79. around/across 80.takes81.many 82. chatting 83.Do 84. after-school 85. interest“Who would you like to change your life with if possible?” Last week, we asked many middle school students this question. The following are some of their answers.Zhang Yike, 12I want to change my life with my friend, Wang Xiaohui. She is studying in England now. She went to many countries several years ago, such as the USA and France. They are the places I wish to visit. What’s more, she speaks much better English than me. If I change my life with her, I can visit many beautiful countries, eat delicious food and meet different kinds of people there.Qiu Haoran, 14I’d like to change my life with my Chinese teacher Miss Zhao. Miss Zhao is a very kind lady. She knows a lot, so she always has so many interesting stories to tell us. We all like her classes. I also want to be such an excellent teacher and be popular with my students.Tan Bo, 13I will change my life with my brother. He is two years older than I. My brother is a college （大学）student now. He doesn’t have to go to class all the time. He can study what he is interested in. And he even has a part-time job to make money. To him, all of these sound very interesting. I really want a life like that.76 Who would you like to change your life with if possible?77of different students Zhang Yike 1.She wants to visit many countries 78 the USA and France.2.Visiting many beautiful countries, eating delicious food and79 different kinds of people will be possible if she changes lifewith her friend, Wang Xiaohui.Qiu Haoran 1.She 80 to change her life with her Chinese teacher.2.Her Chinese teacher always tells interesting stories 81she knows a lot.3.She also wants to be an excellent teacher and be 82 with her students.Tan Bo 1.He wants to change his life with his 83 brother.2.His brother can study what he shows 84 in.3.To him, 85 sounds interesting.76.

How you feel is controlled by many things. Your emotions can be affected by your personality, the actions of others and the events around you. Perhaps you don’t know your emotions can be influenced by the weather as well.People often say they feel good when the sun is shining and sad when it is cloudy. In fact, sunlight makes us feel good. When sunlight hits our skins, our bodies produce a vitamin. Vitamins are chemical substances ( 化学物质) which we all need to stay healthy.Sunlight helps our bodies produce vitamin D. Vitamin D helps our bodies make a special chemical substance. This special chemical substance affects our brains(大脑) and makes us feel happy. Forexample, there are long, dark winters of little sunlight in Sweden and Norway, so many people in these countries often feel sad. Without much sunlight, their bodies produce less vitamin D. Without enough vitamin D, their bodies make less of this special chemical substance which makes them feel good. To help the people in these countries feel better, special “ sunrooms” with artificial( 人造的) ligh ts have been built. People can go there and get ‘sunlight’ for an hour or two!76. weather 77.

In 1929, Burchett made a simple snowboard out of wood and tied (系) it to his feet.Snowboarding is now a popular winter sport, but twenty years ago, snowboarders could not do it in ski resorts (滑雪场) because resorts owners thought snowboarding was not safe. Snowboarders usually found other places to enjoy the sport. Today you can see snowboarders at most ski resorts. Snowboarding has become an Olympic sport.Snowboarding is an exciting sport, but it can also be dangerous. Many snowboarders get hurt every year. Before snowboarding, you should take lessons and make sure you are in good health. You should also make sure nothing is wrong with your snowboard.

But I’ve thought a lot about the life that you have ahead of you, and I write it down to help you along your path by sharing some of the best of what I’ve learned.Life can be unkindThere will be people in your life who won't be very nice. They’ll laugh at you or try to hurt you because you’re different. There’s not much you can do about these people except to learn to deal with them, and learn to choose friends who are kind to you and who make you feel good about yourself. When you find friends like this, treasure them, spend time with them and love them.Life isn’t a competitionThere are many people better than you, in school, in college, at work.

It might sound out of date, I know, but trust me, there’s no better rule in life. Love not only your loved ones, but your neighbors, your co-workers, strangers, even your enemy. The person who is hardest on you, unkind to you…, love him. He is most in need of your love. And most of all, love yourself and learn to love yourself for who you are.Finally, know that I love you and always will.

(每空一词)Christopher Columbus was born in Genoa, Italy. He was the oldest of five children in a worker’s family. He enjoyed going to the sea when he was a young boy.He heard that there was a lot of gold and other valuable things in East India. He wanted to find a short way to get to the Indies by ship. On August 3, 1492, he sailed toward the west from Palos, Spain with three ships. After many days, the sailors had covered a long distance on the sea and were ready to turn around for home when they saw land, an island Columbus named San Salvador. He thought he had found the Indies and called the people he saw there “Indians”. When they got to Cuba, he thought he was in Japan. The world was a lot larger than he thought.In his life, he made four trips across the ocean. His 13-year-old son, Ferdinand, went with him during the last time. He returned to Spain in 1504. Columbus did not become rich as he had hoped. At the end of his life he only had a pension(退休金) the king and the queen had given him because he was the first to reach the New World. He died in 1506, still believing that he had found a new route to East India and that he had reached Asia.Columbus didn’t get to school very much, but he learned to read and write Spanish during his travels. He also taught himself Latin because all the geography books were written in Latin. He is remembered by all not only for the New World he discovered, but also for the way he led for other explorers.答案：76.birthplace 77.age 78.trip 79.because 80.much81.mistake 82.another 83.Instead 84.remember 85.led六、任务型阅读(共10空；每小题1分，计10分）阅读短文，根据短文信息完成文后表格，在横线上写出空缺单词的正确形式。

Ideas/Tips Dear Seth,You’re very young , and at this point in your life you can’t read. But I’ve thought a lot about the life that you have ahead of you, and I write it down to help you along your path by sharing some of the best of what I’ve learned.Life can be unkindThere will be people in your life who won't be very nice. They’ll laugh at you or try to hurt you because you’re different. There’s not much you can do about these people except to learn to deal with them, and learn to choose friends who are kind to you and who make you feel good about yourself. When you find friends like this, treasure them, spend time with them and love them.Life isn’t a competitionThere are many people better than you, in school, in college, at work. To them, life is a competition. But here’s the secret: life isn’t a competition. It's a journey. Learn to enjoy t he journey and make it a journey of happiness, of continual improvement, of love.Love should be your ruleIf there’s a word you should live your life by, it should be this: love. It might sound out of date, I know, but trust me, there’s no better rule in life. Love not only your loved ones, but your neighbors, your co-workers, strangers, even your enemy. The person who is hardest on you, unkind to you…, love him. He is most in need of your love. And most of all, love yourself and learn to love yourself for who you are.Finally, know that I love you and always will. You are starting out on an unknown, tiring, scary, but badly wonderful journey, and always remember I will be there for you when I can.Love,Your DadA father’s 59 to his child59. letter 60. ways/suggestions/solutions/advice 61. right/proper 62. meet 63. everyone。
