People will use a dictionary for help when they have difficulty in reading a passage or doing English exercises. You will make more progress if you know how to use a dictionary efficiently (高效地). 1 Choose a suitable (合适的) dictionary. 2 You can choose a dictionary which is suitable for your English level, needs and interests. For a middle school student in Grade 8, you can choose OXFORD INTERMEDIATE LEARNER’S ENGLISH-CHINESE DICTIONARY. Try to guess the meaning of a new word before you use a dictionary. You may have had such an experience when you are reading a passage; there’re some new words in it and you have difficulty in understanding the full passage. What will you do in this situation? I think you should guess the meaning before you use your dictionary. Learn culture from a dictionary. You don’t just learn a new word’s pronunciation, meaning, part of speech and other usages (用法). 3 A dictionary is a good friend for learning English. It’s a waste for you not to use a dictionary in your study. But don’t think the more you use a dictionary, the better result you can get. 4 If you can do as I have told you, I think you will improve your English soon. A．You can learn some cultural knowledge from a dictionary as well. B．You should use your dictionary in the right way. C．Here are some ideas on how to use a dictionary efficiently. D．Choosing a good dictionary is very important for an English learner. E．I think everyone who wants to learn English well should all own a dictionary. Passage 2 As school kids, we have many dreams. These dreams can be very big, such as winning the Nobel Prize. Or they can be small. 1 Once you have found a dream, what do you do with it? Have you ever tried to make your dream 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！ 2 come true?Follow Your Heart by Australian writer Andrew Matthews tells us that realizing our dreams is life’s biggest challenge. You may think you’re not very good at some school subjects, or that it is impossible for you to become a writer. 2 In fact, everyone can realize their dream. The first thing you must do is to remember what your dream is. Don’t let it leave your heart. Keep telling yourself what you want, and you will realize your dream faster. Do this step by step. A dream cannot be realized in one day. 3 There must be problems on the road to realize. But the biggest problem comes from yourself. You need to decide what is the most important. Studying instead of watching TV will lead to better exam results, while saving five yuan instead of buying an ice cream means you can buy a new book. 4 . This is good as long as you have the chance to learn more skills and find new interests. A．These kinds of thoughts stop you from getting your dream, the book says. B．You may just want to become one of the good students in your class. C．As you get closer to your dream, it may change a little. D．Then it may help them to be confident to face challenges. E．A big dream is, in fact, made up of many small dreams. Passage 3 You are what you wear. Clothes are important and necessary to us, but do you know how to choose suitable clothes in a correct way? 1 When you go shopping and want to buy some clothes, you should think about which kind of clothes you really need and decide how much money you can spend on them. 2 They tell you how to take care of the clothes. The label for a shirt may tell you to wash it in warm water. A sweater label may tell you to wash it in cold water. The label on a coat may say “dry cleaning only” and cleaning in water may destroy this coat. If you do as the directions say on the label, you can keep your clothes looking their best. 3 When buying new clothes, you had better check if they need to be dry-cleaned. You can save money if you buy clothes that can be washed be that are well made. Well-made clothes last longer. They still look good after they have been washed many times. Clothes that cost more money don’t always mean they are better made. 4 On the 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！ 3 other hand, less expensive clothes may sometimes look better and fit you well. A．Many clothes today must be dry-cleaned. B．Here are some suggestions for you. C．They may not fit you, either. D．We need to know how to look after the new clothes. E．Then look at the labels (标签) that are inside the new clothes. Passage 4 Money may not buy happiness, but it helps. Many teenagers want to learn how to manage money before going out into the world. 1 This idea is raised by Dr. Mara Harvey, a money expert. The following are some of her tips. Learn to make money. Ask parents or neighbors if you can do chores to make pocket money. These could include washing a car or taking the dog for a walk. Agree on the value of different jobs before you start. In this way, you can also improve your communication skills, which will help when you have a grown-up job, too. Help your money grow. Money can’t grow if it’s sitting inside a piggy bank. Put your money in the bank and you can get interest (利息). 2 One day you may feel surprised at how much money you have. Make a plan. If you have a big event, such as a holiday coming up, it might mean you will need to spend more of your pocket money. Try making a plan for spending and saving. 3 Then it will help you take control of your money. 4 Figure out how much you can reasonably spend each month. Spend your money on what you truly need. Then try to cut down on spending. For example, rather than eating out, you can choose to cook at home. A．Spend your money wisely. B．Be smart with your money. C．Set a goal of saving money. D．Save your money in the long run. E．Write down how much money you have and what you are spending. 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！ 4 Passage 5 Love is not a simple feeling. Although we love our family and friends, sometimes we just don’t know how to show our love to them. In fact, people give love in different ways. Each way can be called a “love language”. 1 First, offering praise. 2 Praise means attention and care. “You’ve done a good job.” “These shoes look nice on you.”...Such praise will make others pleased. Second, giving gifts. A gift means “I care about you.” The gift does not have to be expensive. Perhaps a piece of chocolate is OK. Third, spending time together. Have a relaxing time and do things we all enjoy. Don’t be busy all the time. Have a picnic with the family. 3 Fourth, being a good listener. 4 When someone is down, what he wants is our understanding. Don’t talk about ourselves too much. These love languages help us to express love. They also make us understand love from others. A．This kind of language uses words to show love. B．Or visit grandparents to talk to them. C．Do you know what “love language” is? D．Be ready to listen and try to understand. E．Here are some love languages. Passage 6 If you ask people of different countries “Could you tell me the way to the post office?”, you will get different answers. In Japan, people use landmarks (地标) instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to the travelers, “Go straight down to the corner. 1 The post office is across from the bus stop.” In Kansas, America, there are no towns or buildings within miles. So instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distance. For example, people will say, “Go north two miles. 2 . People in Greece sometimes do not even try to give directions. They will often say, “Follow me.” 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！ 5 3 . 4 You might not understand a person’s words, but maybe you can understand his or her body language. He or she will usually point to the correct direction. Go on in that direction and you may find the post office! A．Turn east, and then go another mile. B．But one thing will help you everywhere. C．People there think “I don’t know.” is not polite. D．Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. E．Then he or she will take you through the streets of the city to the post office. Passage 7 Where do you get ideas for inventions? Improve the existing things. 1 If you can improve upon a thing that already exists, you are making the invention happen. If you’re really creative and good at engineering, you could try inventing a new car that saves more energy and helps protect the Earth. 2 There are all kinds of problems in your daily life, such as forgetting to bring the keys, losing the phones and so on. 3 However, you can think of ways to solve them. While it’s possible to come up with the problem you’re going to solve after you have an idea for an invention, it’s much easier to identify the problem first. Keep an open mind. Let your ideas flow freely, and don’t write a possible product off just because it’s a little strange. Some of the best ideas are developed accidentally. 4 For example, Thomas Edison tried 2000 different materials before he made the light bulb. Some people asked him to give up the experiments. 5 A．Inventions don’t need to be totally new ideas. B．But he accepted every failure and finally succeeded. C．They usually drive you crazy. D．Think about the problems. 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！ 6 E．So treat your failures like progress. Passage 8 Sometimes the bad news around us may make the world look like an unhappy place to live. 1 If you make even one person smile today, you can help make this world a better place. Here are things you can do to put a smile on someone’s face. Send a handwritten letter 2 As we know, in this day and age, everything is sent by e-mail, QQ or WeChat. So putting pen to paper and writing a few words to a friend can be an easy way to make others smile. Even a postcard with a few sentences could really make someone happy! Volunteer (做志愿者) Volunteering is one of the nicest things you can do. 3 And you can also visit sick children in a hospital. There are so many chances, so you are sure to find one that is right for you. And it doesn’t have to take up all your time it could be once a week or several times a year. Make something special Whether you’re creative or not, taking time to make something special for someone shows how much you appreciate (感激 ) him or her. 4 Some ideas could include a card, painting, drawing or cake! Say “I love you” It can be anyone—your parent, your grandparent or a friend. And you don’t even have to say “I love you”. Perhaps you can tell someone how much you care about him or her. 5 A．However, you can make a difference. B．You can volunteer to help someone in need. C．It will be a surprise to receive a letter by post. D．Even if you think you’re not creative, the receiver will feel lucky to get such a special gift. E．Sometimes, in our busy lives we forget to take a moment to tell people what they mean to us. Passage 9 Are you bored with your daily life?

B．If you can’t swim well, you won’t be able to do some water sports. C．Collect something. D．Try at least one kind of team sports. E．You could collect all kinds of stamps. Passage 10 As people have more and more competition in the modern world, the pressure from education, job or family will be heavier and heavier. 1 A person with bad mood will do worse in his job and often have problems with his family, friends or workmates. If this goes on for a long time, he may lose his job, friends, or even his family. 2 But it is easier said than done. How can you keep a good mood every day? Firstly, always keep a smile on your face. 3 This will make all the things around you nice and peaceful. It will help you to keep yourself in a good mood. 4 This kind of music can make you relaxed and reduce sad feelings, especially when you are too angry to say a word. Just listen to it, for some time. It will make you happy again soon. Thirdly, eating is also a good way to keep a good mood. 5 But I think it is wrong. As for me, nothing is better than eating some delicious food.

Write down important facts. If your teacher writes notes on the blackboard, that’s great. 1 . Different teachers do things differently. For example, some teachers may focus on lots of facts in class, but they only write the important ones on the blackboard. Other teachers may not write anything down, but they may say something important again and again. Ask. Don’t be afraid to ask your teacher to repeat (重复) what you miss. 2 . Compare.

Passage 12 People started using the abacus（算盘）over four thousand years ago to calculate numbers. It was 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！ 9 used in ancient China, Rome, Egypt and Greece. 1 The Chinese abacus is called Suan Pan and is made of beads and thin rods. The beads and rods are usually kept in a wooden frame. A horizontal bar divides the abacus into upper and lower parts. The upper part has two beads on each rod and the lower parts have five beads on each rod. 2 Each bead above the bar represents five while each bead below the bar represents one. There are more than seven rods for a Chinese abacus. Starting from right to left, the first rod is one, the next rod is ten, the third rod is hundred, etc. When using the Chinese abacus, the first thing to do is to clear the numbers. 3 When a bead above the bar is moved down, or when a bead below the bar is moved up, it becomes active and takes value. Recording numbers on an abacus is quite easy. To represent one, simply push up one bead on the first rod below the dividing bar. 4 It is quick and easy to add or subtract numbers with an abacus. 5 A really good abacus user can even calculate square roots. A．A five is represented by moving down one bead above the bar. B．But it is much slower, many people don’t like to use it. C．This is done by moving all beads away from the dividing bar. D．Beads in the two parts have different values. E．However, it takes more time and practice to do multiplication and division. F．Today some people still use the abacus.

Second, you have lots of things to take with you for a vacation. 3 For example, your ticket! You want to visit one place, but when you arrive at the airport (机场), you forget to bring your plane ticket! You may be late for the plane. Third, making a vacation plan can help you save a lot of money. 4 If you surf the Internet before you go on a vacation, you may find some cheap plane tickets and hotel rooms. Next time when you go on a vacation, try to write down some plans. 5 A．We needn’t make plans when we go on vacation. 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！ 10 B．a vacation plan can make sure that everything goes well. C．No one wants to spend more money than they want to. D．You need to plan what things you have to buy and what things you need to put in bags. E．Making vacation plans is very important. F．They can help you have more fun in your vacation. Passage 14 1 Artificial Intelligence（人工智能）, or AI in short, is the science of giving computers and machines ability to think and work like humans. AI scientists and engineers have made a lot of cool technologies. AI is getting close to the human ability to read faces. As a result, facial recognition（面部识别） is used a lot in the world. Chinese police use this technology to find criminals. They even caught six criminals on a famous singer’s concerts in six different cities. 2 AI is also used in self-driving cars. Carmakers are testing a light signal system to help them “speak” to humans. The system can tell passers-by（行人）that the car is about to speed up. It seemed that it can soon take the place of a real person. 3 4 Service Robots can show you how powerful AI is. Imagine this—you come back from school and your robot housekeeper is wait g for you at the door. After dinner, he teaches you to play the piano just like a real music teacher. Such thoughts will soon happen in the real world. In the future, more and more service robots will become good home helpers.

C．Do you know what Artificial Intelligence is? D．AI age is coming, are you ready for it? E．Have you ever wished to have a robot? F．AI is cleverer than human beings.

That will make your handwriting straight. 2 Be sure to fill the lined space completely. And make sure these capital letters are written properly. Slow down If your writing is hard to read, just slow down a little. 3 If you write too quickly, it’s hard for you to stop where you should, and you may make more mistakes easily. 4 When you hold your pencil in the correct way, writing is much better. Some kids press down really hard when they write. That makes the handwriting bad. Try to be relaxed and don’t hold the pencil so hard. Let your writing appear nice and clean. If you do so, people will guess you are a student with a good habit. Draw more pictures 5 While you are drawing pictures, you need to use the skills to control your pencil better. Even though you have no chance to draw at school, you can practice by drawing at home. Handwriting is very important.
