B The Value(价值)of Gold People have treasured gold for thousands of years.But just what makes gold so valuable( 重的)？Gold has several important properties(属性；性能)that cibute toits value..First it reflects(反射)light very well and has an attractive(有魅力的)yellow color,making it ideal(理想 的)for use in jewelry((珠宝).Second,it is very malleable(韧性的)，or easy to shape..Because gold is soft and easy to work with,.it can be hammered(敲打)into thin sheets(薄片)that do not crack(a破裂).These sheets can then be used to add decorative(做装饰用的)details to artwork((艺术品)or buildings.Third,it does not rust(生锈)or wear away(磨损).It keeps its shape,which means that gold jewelry and art objects can pass from generation()to generation and become more valuable over time.Fourth,gold is an excellent conductor() of electricity(电)，making it a good choice for electronics(电子设备). One of the most important reasons that gold is valuable,however,is that it is rare(稀有的)， Although gold exists()in many places throughout the world,it is not easy to find or to mine(开采).People who mine gold usually have to work very hard to get even tiny(极小的) amounts(数量)of the precious(珍贵的)metal(金属).The fact that it is both beautiful and useful makes people want more of this precious metal than they can easily get,which drives up its price. Finally,gold is valuable because people perceive(认知)it to be a symbol of wealth(财富)， Throughout recorded history,.gold has been associated with(与.相联系)wealth and power(权利).Today we still value it for many of the same reasons that our ancestors(祖先)did. l5.What evidence(证据)does the author use to support(支持)the idea that gold is ideal for use in jewelry? A.It reflects light well and is pretty. B.It is very malleable and conducts electricity. C.It is rare and hard to mine. 16.Which piece of evidence explains why gold is commonly used in electronics? A.It keeps its shape.B.It conducts electricity well. C.It is very malleable. 17.Which statement does not explain why gold is valuable? A.Gold has several properties()that make it useful.B.Gold is difficult to mine. C.Gold has been treasured for thousands of years. 18.Which statement(陈述)best supports(支持)the idea that gold is rare? A.It is associated with wealth and power. B.It is both beautiful and useful. C.It is not easy to find or mine. 八年级英语试题第3页（共8页） 19.Which of the following statements is TRUE? e5C05-1s0s A.Our ancestors didn't value gold as much as people do today. B.As time goes by,gold isn't as valuable as it used to be. 路可受照 C.Gold is not easy to crack. 0出衡，图谓形种 C 阅读C篇，根据短文内容，将下面方框中的句子还原到文章当中，使短文内容完整。请将答案 写在答题卷指定位置。 Winston Churchill once said,"We make a living by what we get,but we make a life by what we give."These are certainly words that millions of volunteers around the world could agree with.
