人教版八年级英语下册Unit10话题阅读周周练(二) 1、 阅读理解 A What I like most about school is being with my friends at break. But classes are fun too. For example, music always makes me happy. I just don't like French so much because I can’t understand the teacher. I like sports too—I'm on the school basketball team. I started playing three years ago. However, I don't like some school rules. They are very strict: We can't take our mobile phones to school and we must wear school uniforms. Linda, 13 Every morning when I wake up I feel bad because I must go to school. Lessons are boring. I also hate it when teachers give me lots of homework. But I like to read in the library alone and the lunch in the cafeteria is always delicious. It's also a good thing that I don't have classes in the afternoon. Steve, 12 The best thing about my school is the school library. I like to just sit and read there. I'm good at all of my subjects. My favorite subject is English. I like the songs we listen to in class. I have an English lesson on Mondays, Tuesdays and Fridays. I also love P.E. At break I always go to play football with my friends.

There were lots of subjects in class, but you made sure that I could understand every one. To tell the truth, you're the best teacher I've met. You explain things so clearly, and are also so kind. I really enjoyed every minute of your class. There were so many best parts this year. Whatever the subject, you made it fun and interesting to everyone. All of your students found learning new things so easy because of you. I really believe you have a great teaching skill. You should be very proud of the way that you help children learn. It is because of you that I've decided to become a teacher when I grow up. I have mixed feelings about school next year. I'm sad that you won't be my teacher anymore. However, I'm happy that other children will get to share your knowledge. I'm sure that they'll thank you for your good work. I didn't enjoy school much before this year. I was new to the school this year. At my old school, I found learning quite difficult. The last nine months have changed all of that. I'm now confident and looking forward to the next school year. Thank you once again for all of your help. You are really a great teacher and you've helped me greatly. I hope that we can share the same classroom again one day. Yours, Jacob Maclean ( )1.What did Jacob do in Miss Hooper's class? A. He heard lots of jokes. B. He answered questions a lot. C. He sat in the front of the classroom. D. He had no difficulty understanding her. ( )2.What does Jacob want to be in the future? A. A doctor. B. A teacher. C. A scientist. D. A reporter. ( )3.How does Jacob feel about Miss Hooper's stopping teaching him? A. Upset and angry. B. Surprised and angry. C. Upset but understanding. D. Surprised but understanding. ( )4.What can we know about Jacob at his old school? A. He fought a lot. B. He had few friends. C. He was not confident. D. He often slept in class. ( )5.Why did Jacob write this letter? A. To say sorry to his teacher. B. To ask his teacher for help. C. To give advice to his teacher. D. To say "thank you" to his teacher. Word bank knowledge n.知识 confident adj.有信心的 语篇导读 本文是应用文。文章是Jacob写给他的老师Miss Hooper的一封信，主要是对Miss Hooper给予自己的帮助表达感谢之情。 1.D。细节理解题。根据文章第一段第二句There were lots of subjects in class, but you made sure that I could understand every one可知，Jacob理解Miss Hooper的课没有困难。 2.B 细节理解题。根据文章第二段最后一句...I've decided to become a teacher when I grow up可知，Jacob将来想当老师。 3.C 细节理解题。根据文章第三段第一句可知Jacob对接下来的学年悲喜交加，而接下来的两句就对这种mixed feelings作了具体解释，Jacob对于Miss Hooper不再教自己感到悲伤（sad），但也为其他孩子可以做Miss Hooper的学生感到高兴（happy），结合选项可以发现，只有C项符合文意。C项的Upset but understanding是对第二、三句句意的同义改写。 4.C 推理判断题。Jacob 在文章最后一段开始说自己不喜欢以前的学校，他觉得在那里学习很困难。紧接其后说The last nine months have changed all of that. I'm now confident，由此可知Jacob在以前的学校不自信。 5.D 写作意图题。通读全文可知，本文主要是Jacob对Miss Hooper给予自己的帮助表达感谢之情。 微技巧 利用同义替换解题 在阅读理解的题目中，细节理解题可谓是占据了“半壁江山”，考生也通常觉得这类题比较好做。但有时虽然是考查细节理解题，所给的选项却并不是文章句子或表达的原文复现，而是文章句子或说法的同义表达。这就要求考生在正确理解文意的基础上，能够识别出这样的“同义替换或改写”，利用其来帮助解题。 本文中的第3小题就是一道典型例题。首先，题干中的Miss Hooper's stopping teaching him就是原文说法you won't be my teacher anymore的同义表达，而本题的正确选项C项中的Upset but understanding则是对文章第三段第二、三句句意的同义改写。考生如果可以识别这种同义替换或改写，正确解题也就不在话下了。 C Many students around the world have to deal with bullying. Some people think that if so many kids are upset by bullies, the bullies should be told to leave the school forever. However, there are many reasons why people bully others and kicking the bullies out of school certainly won't change that. Some bullies pick on kids who are smart or better than they are at something. Some experts say that this is because the bullies have difficulties with their schoolwork. However, if we make the bullies leave school, they won't have much chance to learn more. Other bullies shout at kids a lot or even hit or hurt others. Sometimes the bullies hurt others because they don't feel loved or cared about, or they might also be getting bullied or hurt themselves. However, if we just kick the bullies out of school, this will clearly make them feel even less cared about. Sometimes, people feel unhappy and think that there's nothing they can do to change their situation. This causes some people to bring others down because they are also feeling down. However, having to leave their school would make the bullies feel even worse. People might bully others if they feel they have no sense of control over the way they're treated. Treating other people badly is one way they try to get a sense of control in their lives. Kicking them out of school isn't going to address this problem. Kicking the bullies out of school will keep the kids at their old school safe, but what about the kids at the new school? There are many reasons why kids bully others. However, without teachers, friends and other people caring about them, and helping them to live and act differently, how will they ever change? ( )1.What's the writer's opinion in the text? A. Bullies are not big trouble-makers. B. Bullies are very difficult to live with. C. Bullies can't think well before they act. D. Bullies should not be driven away from school. ( )2.Why do bullies pick on clever kids? A. Because bullies can't learn well. B. Because bullies want to be noticed. C. Because bullies can't get their help. D. Because bullies want to get them out of school. ( )3.When might bullies hurt others? A. When they feel unloved. B. When they are in danger. C. When they are in control of things. D. When they feel unclear about something. ( )4.What does the underlined word "address" probably mean? A. Meet. B. Solve. C. Bring. D. Discuss ( )5.If we put the text into three parts, which of the following is the best? （①= Para.1 ②=Para.2 ③=Para.3 ④=Para.4 ⑤= Para.5 ⑥= Para.6） A.①; ②③④⑤; ⑥ B.①②; ③④⑤; ⑥ C.①; ②③④; ⑤⑥ D.①②; ③④; ⑤⑥ Word bank bullying n.霸凌 kick v.踢 chance n.机会 treat v.对待 语篇导读 本文是议论文。文章主要论述了为什么在学校一些学生会对其他学生进行霸凌，以及不应该把霸凌者强制赶出学校的原因。该篇章为“总-分-总”式结构，即开篇提出霸凌话题并指出霸凌者不该被强制赶出学校，接着详细介绍了原因，最后作者以反问句的形式表达了自己的观点：不应该把霸凌者强制赶出学校。 1.D 推理判断题。根据文章第一段最后一句However, there are many reasons why people bully others and kicking the bullies out of school certainly won't change that可知，作者认为把霸凌者赶出学校不是好的办法。 2.A 细节理解题。根据文章第二段第一、二句Some bullies pick on kids who are smart or better than they are at something. Some experts say that this is because the bullies have difficulties with their schoolwork可知，霸凌者欺负聪明的学生是因为他们自己学习不好，嫉妒别人。 3.A 细节理解题。根据文章第三段第二句Sometimes the bullies hurt others because they don't feel loved or cared about...可知，霸凌者自己得不到关爱时会去欺负别的孩子。 4.B 词义猜测题。作者反对把霸凌者赶出学校，因为她/他认为这“解决”不了根本问题。 5.A 篇章结构题。本文是“总-分-总”结构，作者在第一段提出自己的观点，中间四段列出依据，最后一段再次对自己的观点加以总结。 二、还原短文 There are many kinds of schools in the world. 1. ______ The Green School is on the Island of Bali. 2. ______ The founders of the school are Canadian born designer John Hardy and his wife Cynthia Hardy. They started to live in Bali in 1975 and became very successful in business.
