He went around the village with a basket and asked each person to give him some of their wisdom (智慧). The people laughed at Anansi because they knew that he needed wisdom the most. So each person put a bit in his basket and wished him good luck.Soon his basket was full, but Anansi was worried that his neighbors might be jealous (嫉妒) of his wisdom and take it from him. He decided to hide it at the top of a tall tree. He tied the basket to the front part of his body and tried to climb the tree, but it was too difficult. He tried again and again without success.Then his youngest son walked by. “What are you doing, Father?” he asked and Anansi told him. “Why don’t you carry the basket on your back instead?” his son said.Anansi put the basket on his back and climbed the tree easily, but he wasn’t happy. “I walked all over the village and collected so much wisdom that I am the wisest person ever, but my baby son is still wiser than me.

His palace was always decorated (装饰) with beautiful orchids (兰花) and other flowers. As the king grew older, he knew that one day he would have to give up his throne (王位). So he had to find someone to rule the country.The other day, the king had an idea. He asked his servants to travel to every part of the country and give every citizen a single orchid seed (种子). He then announced (宣布) that the person who grew the most beautiful orchid would take his throne.Everyone in the country then got their own seed. One young man named David was especially excited about the news, because he had experience in growing flowers himself.David planted his seed in a pot and put it in a place where it would get lots of sunlight. He watered it carefully every day. But hard as he tried, his flower simply would not grow.Finally, it was time for everyone to give their flowers to the king. David took his empty pot to the palace. “Your Majesty (陛下), I am sorry to say that l could not grow an orchid. But I hope you can see that l tried my best,” he said.The king was moved by David’s honesty. Although he did not choose David as the new king, he gave David a job as a royal court judge (法官). He believed that David’s honesty would make him the right person to make sure of the justice (公正) in the country.22．According to the king’s order, who could be the next king?A．The man who was the smartest.B．The man who was the most honest.C．The man who could plant the best seed.D．The man who could grow the most beautiful orchid.23．What do we know about David?A．He told a joke to the king.B．He failed to grow the king’s orchid.C．He was good at growing orchids.D．He was chosen to be the next king. 24．What can we learn from the story?A．David was the only winner in the end.B．It is stupid of the king to choose David as a judge.C．It is impolite of David to give an empty pot to the king.D．The king believed honesty was very important for a judge.25．Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A．Honesty is the Best Policy B．How to Grow OrchidsC．Flowers are the Best Gifts D．It’s Very Easy to Grow Orchids七①Have you ever heard that groundhogs can predict (预测) the end of winter? How about that elephants never forget things? Or that dogs can smell the strange? That may not be 100% true. However, many animals do have stronger senses than humans.①Do animals have a sixth sense that can tell the future? That may sound out of this world. However, many events seem to support this idea.①Thousands of years ago, a big earthquake hit Helike, Greece. Buildings came down. Many people were hurt. But there was something amazing. The city’s animals acted strangely days before the earthquake. Rats and snakes ran from the city in groups. Did they know an earthquake was coming? In 1975, one million people had to leave their hometown, Haicheng, Liaoning Province with the help of Chinese government. Why? They believed a disaster was coming. They thought this, in part,because of animals’ strange behaviours. Just days later, a large earthquake hit the city. Experts (专家) said 150,000 could have lost their lives if people stayed in the city at that time. In December 2004, the animals of Sri Lanka were acting strange. Elephants ran around. Dogs wouldn’t go outside. Zoo animals wouldn’t leave their home. Soon after people saw these strange behaviours, a tsunami (海啸) hit the island.①Animals seem to be pretty good at predicting (预测) disasters. But it doesn’t stop there! Some of them even seem to sense small changes in the weather before they happen. Bees are known to find places before it rains. Dairy farmers say they can tell a big storm is coming when their cows lie down. Cats and dogs are also said to know when a storm is on its way, as are birds and turtles. Can animals really tell the future?①Experts say it’s unlikely (不可能的) that animals can tell the future. However, they might hear or feel the earthquake before people do. Even though scientists have not proved animals have the ability to predict disasters before they happen and animals’ predictions aren’t always right, it’s not bad to pay attention to the animals. 26．According to the passage, we know many animals ________.A．can tell the future in different ways B．have better sense abilities than humans C．act strangely after some natural disasters D．use the sixth sense to predict earthquakes27．The word “behaviours” in Paragraph 3 probably means “________”.A．actions B．senses C．ideas D．feelings 28．How many examples do the writer use in Paragraph 3 to support the idea that animals can tell the future?A．Two.B．Three.C．Four D．Five. 29．What’s Paragraph 4 mainly about?A．Animals are good at helping farmers.B．Animals are good at finding their homes.C．Animals seem to know the future problems.D．Animals seem to know the weather changes.30．Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A．Can Animals Predict the Future?B．Do Animals Have Stronger Senses?C．How Do Animals Save People’s Life?D．What Are Animals’ Ways to Tell the Future?八Think back to a time in your life when you tried something new.When I was a teenager I volunteered to pass out water at a local race. I was so excited to see all the different runners who passed by and quickly took a cup of water. Some ran past, some walked past and a few wheeled past.I saw so many kinds of people doing it. I thought maybe I could do it too! The next year I decided to run for the race, but I had little running practice. I just wanted to finish.On the day of the race, it was terribly hot. After running for about 5 miles, I was thinking, “I must be crazy. Why did I do this? What was I thinking?” And at one moment, I said to myself, “I am never doing this again!”That first 10 km race was quite an experience. I jogged, I walked, I jogged and walked. At times, I didn’t know if I could finish.Near the end, a 70-year-old man ran past me, very fast, and I felt a little embarrassed (尴尬的) that I was more than 50 years younger than he and I couldn’t even keep up with him. But then I realized something. He was running his race and I was running mine. How often in life do we compare ourselves to others when we really shouldn’t? I decided that I would not give up on running races, and that one day I would be one of those 70-year-olds who were still running.As I crossed the finishing line, I was so proud of myself. I didn’t regret (后悔) having such an experience.31．Why did the writer join in the running race?A．He was crazy about running for the race.B．He just wanted to try something new.C．He though he had rich running experience.D．He expected to see if he was strong enough.32．How did the writer’s feeling change during the race?① He decided to keep on running.① He felt very proud of himself.① He was kind of embarrassed.① He regretted joining in the race.A．①→①→①→①B．①→①→①→①C．①→①→①→①D．①→①→①→①33．What did the writer try to tell us?A．We should volunteer as teenagers.B．We should cheer up for old people.C．We should run our own race in life.D．We should try our best to be No. 1.附答案及解析1．C 2．B 3．D 4．D 5．A解析：本文主要介绍富美子在纽约度过的快乐时光，及她对纽约的喜爱之情。

AImagine one day, the water taps(水龙头) in your house stop running. You have to buy water from shops. And still there isn’t enough for everyone. Your mother has to save the family’s shower water to do other things. Would you be able to stand that kind of life?Probably not. But that’s what kids in Yemen are experiencing. Experts said Yemen is going to be the first country in the world to run out of water. According to a report, the capital, Sana, will run out of drinking water as early as 2025.Because of the shortage, the government often cuts the water supply(供应). Hannan, an 18-year-old from Lahej, told Times: “In a good week we’ll have a water supply all week. But then the following week there will be water only for a day or two.”Hannan said only rich people have enough water to use. They can buy water from the shops or from the water trucks. Private companies own the trucks. They travel around the city every day to sell water—at very high prices. “A lot of people can’t afford it,” she said.The average (平均) person in Yemen uses 100 to 200 cubic（立方）meters of water per year. That is far below the international water poverty(贫困) line of 1,000 cubic meters.The government is thinking of making use of seawater. But it will cost a lot and it may not happen soon enough to help the people of Yemen.1．_____________ is the name of the capital city of Yemen.A. SanaB. LahejC. HannanD. Times2．A report shows that Sana will have ____________ as early as 2025.A. enough drinking water to useB. no drinking water to useC. no private companiesD. more water pollution3．What does the underlined word “shortage” in the third paragraph mean in Chinese?A. 充足B. 短缺C. 干旱D. 需求4．We can infer(推断) from the passage that _____________.A. the poor don’t have to worry about the water supplyB. the 18-year-old boy is from a poor familyC. private companies make a lot of moneyD. Lahej is a beautiful place5．Which of the following do you think is the best title for this passage?A. How to Save WaterB. How to Make Use of SeawaterC. How People Use Water FullyD.

八年级英语早读阅读理解训练 Titanic Museum Attraction 课文原文

Titanic Museum AttractionOver a hundred years ago, the world-famous Titanic hit an iceberg and sank. It was the biggest and fastest ship of its time and thought to be unsinkable. Sadly, it wasn’t and more than 1,500 people on it lost their lives.Not long ago, I visited the Titanic Museum Attraction in a mountain city in East Tennessee, USA. It is a museum built in memory of the famous ship and the victims.In 1987, moviemaker John Joslyn and his team went into the deep sea to film the Titanic’s wreckage. They did a successful job for their movie. But Joslyn didn’t stop there. He knew that like him, many people were interested to know what those victims really experienced. He dreamed of a place where visitors could share the experience. In 2010, his dream came true with the building of the Titanic Museum Attraction. With over 400 exhibits in it, it is the world’s largest Titanic museum. The museum is housed in a Titanic-shaped ship. It is half the size of the real one. I walked on the ship under a starry sky and touched an “iceberg”. Then I put my hands into the cold water of the sea. It was the same temperature as the water on that dangerous night: -2.22℃. I had a better understanding of the feeling of those hopeless people that night.It was a meaningful visit! The museum gave me a chance to experience that exciting but sad day.。

He Wows the Art WorldMikail Akar was born in Germany on October 9th, 2012. For his fourth birthday, he got a canvas and some paints. He liked them very much. A few days later, his father came home from work and found a painting on the table. It was really good. He thought it was his wife’s doing and he told her it was beautiful. But she said it was not hers. It was Mikail’s. Then Mikail’s parents realized for the first time that their son might be a born painter.That was four years ago. Since then, Mikail has developed his own style. People from around the world buy his work. They are all very surprised when they find how young the artist is. He is called the “pre-school Picasso”.When you read about young talented people, you always worry that they may run out of talent because of working too hard. This is certainly not the case with Mikail. His parents never push him. “He only paints when he wants to. Sometimes it is once a week. Sometimes once a month,” said his father. It seems that he is much happier when playing football with his friends. In fact, he says that when he is older, he wants to become a professional football player.Do you like Mikail’s paintings? Would you like to hang one in your room?。

⼈教版⼋年级英语下册Unit8专项练习阅读理解（附答案）⼋下Unit 8专项训练—阅读理解AMany kids help parents to do chores in the house. They may take out the trash, walk the dog or sweep the floor. In return, some kids get money or other rewards (报酬) from their parents, such as 20 minutes to play computer games.But some people do not think that kids should get rewards for doing chores. One of them is Jane Smith, a parenting educator and family coach. She believes if kids get rewards, they may think that work isn't worth doing unless you get something in return. For example, kids won't sweep the floor if they see it is dirty. But they will do it if their parents reward them for it.“Every house is a team effort, ” Jane said. “A home is a living place for everyone in the family. It's important for kids to see that we all have a responsibility (责任) to keep our home clean. ”Other people hold different opinions. They believe that money or other rewards encourage kids to do more chores. It also teaches them real world lessons. They can learn about how we need to work to make money.Now, there are also apps that encourage kids to do chores. The apps give kids points and digital (电⼦的) gifts that can be used either online or in life. With the app ChoreMonster, kids earn digital points after doing chores. Kids can exchange their points for real rewards, such as time to play video games or a trip to the mall. “Our goal is to encourage kids so they can earn rewards, ” says Joe Black, the founder of ChoreMonster.“Kids need positive (积极的) power to make them do chores. ”1.

深圳宝安区福永中学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.

八年级上学期早读阅读理解练习 He Makes Sculptures From Tires

He Makes Sculptures From Tires
While most artists have to spend money on their materials, Blake McFarland doesn’t have this problem — he uses recycled rubber tires to create amazing life-like sculptures of animals. He uses 100 — 400 tires for one sculpture and it may take him up to a month to complete it.
Blake was born in California, USA. He played many sports and was good at baseball at school. After being a professional baseball player for several years, he decided to be a full-time artist. He created his first tire sculpture in 2012 and was lucky that it was bought by a local art gallery. It was a very important time in his life because from then on he knew that he could try and create more sculptures.
