Fred and his wife, Doris lived happily together1 their small old house. One winter night, the Luck Fairy(仙女) visited them.“Fred, you’re 2 good farmer. I’d like to give you a 3 .”said the Luck Fairy.“A wish?” said Fred.Fred and Doris smiled at each other. Then Fred said, “Thank you, Luck Fairy.

Although I’m very busy at my study, I will still try my 9 to read as many books as possible in my spare time.

Every year, more than one hundred people in our city 3 while they were enjoying themselves in the water, especially(尤其) in recent(最近的) years. Most of 4 were students. But some people are still not careful. They often think that they can swim so 5 that they will never get drowned(被淹死) in water. Summer is here again.

Since my parents often came home late, a prepared dough would help my family have supper sooner.Later, I fell in love with cooking. It's a good way to relax. More importantly, thanks to my cooking skills, I live better. Now I cook every meal instead of ordering food. It saves money.Besides cooking, I did a lot of farm work in my childhood. I got to know how to plant vegetables. Though it was hard work, the experience taught me things that many of my friends still don't know. For example, the part of a potato that has sprouts(芽) can be planted as a seed(种子). I once discussed this with my friends from the city. They were all sorry to have no chance to learn these things in their lives.Some might say we can learn these things from textbooks. But it can't compare to the joy of watching plants grow.

I hopeyou have enjoyed the music.The purpose of this concert is to raise money for children in Africa. Every day hundreds of children in Africa die, because they have diseases or have no enough food to eat. There are two main reasons. First, there are no jobs for the children's parents, so they have no money to buy food or medicine. Second, the governments in many African countries do not have the money to take care of poor people. Most African countries are poor. The land is not good for growing food and the weather is also bad for farming.The Feed Africa Fund, the organization(组织) we are trying to help, spends a lot of money every year on food for poor people in Africa. The money comes from people like you—kind, generous people who do not want to see children die from hunger(饥饿). Just one dollar can buy enough rice or corn to feed a family of four for three days. How much do you spend on food every day? Ten dollars? Twenty dollars?I am sure you can spend a little less on your own food so that you have a few dollars for the Feed Africa Fund.Ladies and gentlemen, we will now take a collection. Please be generous. Thank you.()66. What did the people probably see before this speech?A. Some famous actors.B. Animals doing tricks.C. A movie.D. Some musicians.()67. What will the money be raised for?A.

专题09 短文填空-八年级英语下期中专项复习(外研版)
专题09：短文填空2020-2021学年八年级英语下学期期中专项复习第一部分短文填空分类做题技巧英语首字母填空1. 通读短文知大意，看整体全面了解。
每篇短文段落之间必然承上启下、前呼后应。
因此通读全文时要一气呵成，只要能了解短文的大意即可，细节不理解可以跳过。
因此，在解题之前通读一遍短文，目的是对文章有个全面的了解，弄清其中心思想和大意。
2. 复读短文抓信息，前后照应巧猜词在了解文章大意的前提之下再次通读短文，目的是对短文有更进一步的了解。
在阅读时要特别注意一篇文章的开头（一般不设空）和结尾，它们能提供主要的信息，帮助了解全文所描述的事件或文章的中心思想。
要注意上、下文的关系，把握文章的整体意义。
另外，要学会跳读，即对不理解的地方采用暂时回避，待理解全文后再找解决方法。
有些短文填空题，出现约 3%~5% 的生词很正常，要求学生根据构词知识或上、下文的意思加以猜测，来确定它的词义。
3. 反复推敲多分析，慎重答题讲合理再次通读短文，对留空的句子进行全面的分析，看它在全文中所处的位置、作用和意义。
这一遍阅读要求是精心阅读，要留心找出关键词、短语或句子，还要结合所给首字母的提示，进行填写，并注意单词的正确形式。
4. 认真复查全文，把握整体和词形来源：做完以后，再认真读一遍，检查所填写的单词是否与文章要求相符，文章是否通顺，前后是否呼应，有无句型结构及语法错误。
选词填空该题型是初中英语的一个重要题型，它集词的用法与搭配、词语辨析、语法、单句理解等考查于一体，既考查了考生的语言知识水平，又检测了考生的分析判断能力和综合运用语言知识的实践能力。
1. 在拿到题目后，不要急于看文章，首先对备选的词汇研究几遍，对词性做简单的标记，例如：名词、动词、形容词、副词等等，同时对词义作初步的理解。
2. 仔细阅读句子，充分理解句子的意思，注意发现固定搭配关系，凭借语感积极主动地猜测空格中所缺的信息，根据需要去备选词汇中寻找匹配的答案。
