专题04 阅读理解之说明文15篇 天津市河西区2023-2024学年八年级上学期期中英语试题 We each have a memory(记忆力). That’s why we can still remember things after a long time. Some people have very good memories and they can easily learn many things by heart, but some people can only remember things when they say or do them again and again. Many of the great men of the world have got surprising memories. A good memory is a great help in learning a language. Everybody learns his mother language when he is a small child. He hears the sounds, remembers them and then he learns to speak. Some children are living with their parents in foreign countries. They can learn two languages as easily as one because they hear, remember and speak two languages every day. In school it is not so easy to learn a foreign language because the pupils have so little time for it, and they are busy with other subjects, too. But your memory will become better and better when you do more and more exercises. 51．Some people can easily learn many things by heart because ________.

How do so many people move on their way to work and school? In New York you can travel around the city by underground, bus, taxi and car. The underground train runs on the railway lines under the city. It crosses the city at different points and goes to all parts of the city. Travelling by underground is the fastest way to get around the city. The second way to travel around the city is by bus. It is a slower way to travel. This is because the bus moves on the road on which traffic is often heavy. You can also travel around the city by taxi. This is very expensive, but the taxi will take you to every place you wish to go to. If traffic is heavy, the taxi will be slow. During the mornings and afternoons, there are rush hours. This is the time when the traffic is very heavy with people going to and back from work. The last way to get around New York is using your own car. It is inconvenient(不方便的)since you will perhaps be driving in the rush hour. If there is an accident on the road, you will have to wait for a long time. The best time to travel around the city is from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. This is the time after the morning rush hour and before the afternoon rush hour. Traffic will be less crowded during this time since most people are already at work or at home. 56．How many ways of travelling around New York City are mentioned(提及) in the passage? A．Two. B．Three. C．Four. D．Five. 57．The fastest way to travel in New York is ________. A．by bus B．by underground C．by taxi D．by car 58．The expensive way to travel in New York is by ________.

So it is not surprising there are many expressions (表达) about cats. Do you know any of them? Now let me introduce some to you. Some cats like to catch small birds, like canaries. If someone looks very proud or satisfied with himself, we say he looks like the cat that ate the canary. Sometimes, a cat likes to play with a small animal it catches. So if you play cat and mouse with someone, you change between different kinds of behavior when dealing with another person. For example, a child might offer something sweet to her little brother, and then take it away when he reaches for it. A cat will often catch a small animal and present it to its owner. The saying that looks like something the cat dragged (拖) in describes something in bad condition. A fat cat is a person with a lot of money. There are many other expressions about cats in America. How interesting! Which kind of cat are you, or which kind would you like to be? 26．Americans like ________ best as pets. A．dogs B．pigs C．cats D．mice 27．The canary is a kind of ________.

Perhaps some bad reading habits (习惯) make you read more slowly. Now read these questions and check yourself by answering “yes” or “no” to these questions. ◆Do you move your lips (嘴唇) when reading silently (默读)? ◆Do you point to words with your finger as you read? ◆Do you move your head from side to side while you are reading? ◆Do you read one word at a time (一次)? If you answer “yes” to any of these questions, start at once to break the habit. If you move your lips, put your fingers over them, or hold a piece of paper between your lips while you are reading. Then if your lips move, you will know it and can stop them. If you point to words, hold the two sides of your book, one side with your left hand, the other side with your right hand. Then you won’t have a free finger to use in pointing while reading. If you move your head, place your chin (下巴) in one hand and hold your head still (静止不动的). If you read no more than one or two three words at a time, you need to work very hard in learning to take in more words at each glance (一瞥) as your eyes travel across the lines of words. Anyone who practices doing these things will be able to read faster. 31．If you learn to read correctly, ________.

That’s why we can still remember things after a long time. Some people have very good memories and they can easily learn many things by heart, but some people can only remember things when they say or do them again and again. Many of the great men of the world have got surprising memories. A good memory is a great help in learning a language. Everybody learns his mother language when he is a small child. He hears the sounds, remembers them and then he learns to speak. Some children are living with their parents in foreign countries. They can learn two languages as easily as one because they hear, remember and speak two languages every day. In school it is not so easy to learn a foreign language because the pupils have so little time for it, and they are busy with other subjects, too. But your memory will become better and better when you do more and more exercises. 51．Some people can easily learn many things by heart because ________.

How do so many people move on their way to work and school? In New York you can travel around the city by underground, bus, taxi and car. The underground train runs on the railway lines under the city. It crosses the city at different points and goes to all parts of the city. Travelling by underground is the fastest way to get around the city. The second way to travel around the city is by bus. It is a slower way to travel. This is because the bus moves on the road on which traffic is often heavy. You can also travel around the city by taxi. This is very expensive, but the taxi will take you to every place you wish to go to. If traffic is heavy, the taxi will be slow. During the mornings and afternoons, there are rush hours. This is the time when the traffic is very heavy with people going to and back from work. The last way to get around New York is using your own car. It is inconvenient(不方便的)since you will perhaps be driving in the rush hour. If there is an accident on the road, you will have to wait for a long time. The best time to travel around the city is from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. This is the time after the morning rush hour and before the afternoon rush hour.

History will never forget this day. A tsunami（海啸）hit the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant（福岛第一核电站）in Japan in 2011. It broke the nuclear reactors（核反应堆）, workers have been using a lot of water to keep them cool. The water touches the reactors, so it has a lot of radioactive materials（放射性物质）.

So processed（处理过的）nuclear wastewater is often seen as safe. But nuclear-contaminated water is not. WHAT DOES JAPANESE GOVERNMENT DO? Japan tries to mix the idea of the two kinds of water.

Many of them are still unprocessed. “The materials will in the end hurt people’s health,” Wang You, a Chinese ocean scientist, told CCTV News. WHAT DOES CHINESE GOVERNMENT DO? China started to stop buying seafood from Japan on Aug 24. Restaurants must not buy or use such seafood. As of Aug 28, both Russia and Thailand said that they were testing the seafood from Japan.
