Many of them fly to a place with nice weather in winter and return home in spring. We call it migration.Another good way to be away from the cold is to sleep through it. Many animals hide themselves during the winter such as snakes, frogs and bears. They sleep and do not eat for the whole winter. We call it hibernation.Some animals store food in their homes. They save some food in summer and fall and live on them. This is what squirrels (松鼠) do.Other animals do not leave. They do not hide. Sometimes nature helps them out.

成都武侯外国语学校八年级英语下册期末阅读理解汇编
成都武侯外国语学校八年级英语下册期末阅读理解汇编一、八年级英语下册阅读理解专项训练1.阅读理解North American black bears are shy animals. They are fearful by nature, and will usually run away if they see or hear people. Because of this, it can be difficult for scientists to learn about these animals.In order to study black bears, researchers from New Jersey, the US, catch bears and use drugs to help them go to sleep. Researchers then work out the size and the weight of the bears, take blood, to test for diseases, remove a tooth and take it to the lab to find out its age. From these studies, researchers want to find out how many bears live in New Jersey, how long they live, and how many babies they produce.But in Minnesota, the US, researchers study bears that are completely awake. The bears know the researchers' voices and they are not afraid of the research team. With the help of a few grapes to keep the bears busy, researchers can touch them to check their hearts, look at their teeth, and do other jobs. Researchers can also walk or sit with bears for hours and make videos to learn about their everyday lives."In both places, the main purpose is the same—to make sure there is a healthy population of black bears. But the research methods and the kinds of information that researchers are able to collect are quite different.(1)In the first paragraph, we can learn that North American black bears are __________.A. shy and fearful animalsB. not found todayC. well known to scientistsD. not afraid of people(2)The word "remove" in the second paragraph probably means in Chinese.A. 拔下B. 移植C. 清洗D. 修补(3)Which of the following may NOT be included in the New Jersey studies on black bears?A. The age.B. The way of their communication.C. The weight.D. The number of babies they produce.(4)In the Minnesota studies, researchers ________.A. can never get close to the bearsB. study the bears while they are asleepC. use grapes to make the bears fullD. learn a lot about the bears' everyday lives2.阅读理解You may feel interested in students in other countries. Do they have so much homework? What do they do in their free time? Do they often go to parties? People did a survey in China, Japan, South Korea and the US last year. Here are the results.Who studies the hardest?Chinese students spend the most time in studying. About one in two spends more than two hours on their homework every day. Why? Maybe they' just want to improve themselves, or they do that just because of the school and their parents.Who sleeps most often in class?About 45 percent of Japanese students doze off in class. 32% of us students feel sleepy in class,while in China, there are 5% students sleeping in class. Why do Japanese students get tired and sleepy in class more easily? Because they always like to stay up late at night!Who is the most distracted?American students are the most active in class, but also the most distracted. 64.2% of them talk to friends in class. 46.9% of them eat in class, and 38.9% of them send e-mails or read other books in class.What do they do after school?In their free time, most Chinese students study or surf the Internet. Most American students hang out with their friends or go to parties. Most Japanese students do exercise while most South Korean students watch TV.(1)What percent of Chinese students spend more than 2 hours doing their homework every day?A. 32%B. 45%C. 50%D. 64.2%(2)What does a "distracted student" usually do in class?A. He listens to his teachers very carefully.B. He keeps quiet and does his homework.C. He always falls asleep in class.D. He does things that have nothing to do with learning.(3)What does the passage mainly want to tell us?A. The students from different countries have different character.B. Chinese students work much harder than those from other countries.C. The students around the world do something different in their free time.D. Most students in the world are interested in going online or watching TV.3.阅读理解Zhao Min, China I have great interest in stamps. I have started collecting many kinds of stamps since 2011. I have collected over 300 different stamps. They're really amazing.Julia, the US This toy bear is my only toy. I have kept it for three years. A volunteer who came to our village gave it to me. The toy bear has become my best friend. He knows all of my secrets (秘密).Frank, England Look! I have a toy gun. My uncle gave me the first toy gun when I was five.

Mor e and more y oung people in the USA volunteer to spend their school holidays working for others. And they don’t do it for money. Here are some of their stories.Alice Hamilton, 17I’m going to help the Forest Center build new hiking paths (小路) in the mountains. It’s going to be great fun — I’ll spend the whole summer living in a forest and breathing the clean mountain air. I’m going to sleep under the moon and stars. It will be a nice sport, and I’ll be able to do something good at the same time!Jason Moore, 18This summer, I’m going to volunteer with Special House Program. They build good, less expensive houses and sell them to families that are not very rich. They’ll teach me w hat to do, so I’ll help people and also have a chance to learn how to build houses.Trish Anderson, 16I’m going to teach children who have trouble in reading. I’ll work for a program called Reading for Life. Every day, I’m going to help them choose and ead books that they like. I want to be a teacher and I love children and reading, so this is going t o be a great experience for me.39. What does the word “volunteer” mean?A. Help parents do the houseworkB. Do something and mak e some moneyC. Learn how to build new housesD. Offer to do something, not for money40. What does Alice plan to do in summe r ?A. T o sleep under the moon and stars.B.

Which is the most possible title (标题) for this p assage ?A. Reading for LifeB. A Special House ProgramC. The Forest CentreD. Y oung American V olunteersCSome animals can be trained to help humans(人类). For example, speciallytrained dogs help blind people walk ar ound the town safely . Some kinds of monk eyscan be taught things too. They can learn how to help people who can’t use theirarms or legs. The monk eys pick up the phone when it rings, carry shopping bagsand do housework.In the wild, animals and humans are not usually friends, but there are a few interesting examples where they can work together . In Africa, the honeyguide bird works withhumans to find food. The bird likes to eat the grubs (幼虫) — a type of insect thatlives inside a beehive (蜂巢,蜂窝). It knows how to find beehives but it can’t openthem and get the grubs. People like to eat honey, but they aren’t very good atfinding beehives, so the bird and the people help each other . The bird flies to abeehive and people follow it. When the people open the beehive and tak e the honey , they give the(grubs to the bird.In Laguna in the south of Brazil, fishermen and dolphins work as a team. The oceanisn’t very clean, so the fishermen can’t see the fish. However , dolphins can findthem easily by using sounds. When the dolphins find a large group of fish, theymak e a noise to tell the fishermen. Then the dolphins push the fish to the beach.The fishermen wait in the water near the beach and catch a lot of fish in theirnets. The fishermen’s nets make it easier for the dolphins to catch fish too. In Laguna, fishermen and dolphins have been working together for many years. The fishermen teach their children how to work with the dolphins. The dolphins must be happy to help because they teach their babies how to work with the humans!43. How do some dogs help people?A.
