2024-2025初中英语八年级上册期末必刷 阅读理解专项练习30篇 附答案及解析 In 1621, the Plymouth colonist (殖民者) and Wampanoag Indians shared an autumn harvest festival that is known today as one of the first Thanksgiving Celebrations in the colonies (殖民地). For more than two centuries, days of thanksgiving were celebrated by colonies and states themselves. It wasn’t until 1863, in the midst of the Civil War, that President Abraham Lincoln made it known to the public that a national Thanksgiving Day will be held each November. In many American families, the Thanksgiving celebration now centers on cooking and sharing a big meal with family and friends. Turkey has become a symbol of the holiday. Today, however, nearly 90 percent Americans eat the bird—whether roasted, baked or deep-fried on Thanksgiving. Other traditional foods include stuffing (火鸡填料), mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce and pumpkin pie. Volunteering is a common Thanksgiving Day activity, and communities often hold food drives and host free dinners to the people in need. Parades have also become an important part of the holiday in cities and towns across the United States. Presented by Macy’s department store since 1924, New York City’s Thanksgiving Day parade is the largest and most famous, attracting some 2 to 3 million people along its 2.5-mile route and drawing a huge number of television audience. Beginning in the mid-20th century and perhaps even earlier, the president of the United States has “pardoned” (赦免) one or two Thanksgiving turkeys each year, sparing the birds from slaughter (屠杀) and sending them to a farm to live a happy life. A number of U.S. governors also perform the turkey pardoning activity every year. 1.When did Thanksgiving become a national holiday? A.In 1621. B.In 1863. C.In 1924.

Urumqi No 37 Middle School students in Xinjiang have been doing it since 2005. Grapes are grown intensively (多产地) in Xinjiang. It’s the reason the school decided to teach students how to make red wine four years ago, according to Zhu Dacheng, vice-principal (副校长) of the school. “We hope the students can find out about something in real life and learn practical skills,” he said. The students got to work in September, when the grapes in Xinjiang ripen (成熟). They were divided into groups. They needed about 5kg of grapes each, some yeast (酵母), a basin and a jar (罐子). Making the wine Yang Lili, 13, told Teens how the four students in her group made their wine. “We worked like a production line (流水线),” she said. One student washed the grapes, another pulled them from their stems (茎); the others squashed (压扁) the grapes in a big basin. Then they put the grapes and the yeast into a jar and sealed (密封) it. The process takes about an hour. Then what? A lot of waiting! After 45 days, the students filtered (过滤) the wine twice and then put it into bottles. At last, the wine was ready. Yang said that of the 11 groups in her class, there were just three failures. In March, the whole class had a wine-tasting party to celebrate. Xu Hao, 13, said they were excited to taste the results. “The wine is so sweet,” he said. “We made better wine than you can buy in the supermarket!” “It’s because our wine is made from 100% grapes,” he added. At the party, the teacher also taught the students about wine culture. For example, how to hold a glass, and how you can judge the quality (质量) of a wine by its color. 63.Urumqi No 37 Middle School students in Xinjiang have been________ since 2005.

However, some shows are good and we can learn many things from them. Here are a few of my favorite shows. Blue Peter When I was a child, this was the only show I could watch. I watched it on Monday, Wednesday and Sunday every week. You can learn about different countries around the world from it. As the show is for children, the language in it is easy. The Great British Bake Off This show is about making bread, cakes and so on. The show wants to find Britain’s best amateur baker (业余烘焙师). You can watch the show and learn how to bake different kinds of bread and cakes by following their steps. Frozen Planet This show is about life in cold places. There are many special animals in this show. I love this show not because of the cute animals, but because it teaches us why we have these animals and what we need to do to save them. Pointless This show is great for you to think. It is a quiz (知识竞赛) show. It may be about sports, weather, movies and so on.

Students in China currently only have long holidays in two seasons-summer and winter. These holidays are usually 10 to 12 weeks in total. “If we had spring and autumn breaks, I would have time to taste all four seasons instead of burying(埋)myself in my studies,” Gao Yiran, a 15-year-old boy toldChina Daily.Seasonal holidays during autumn and spring may be something new in China, but not in other countries. In the USA, students usually have three holidays. Summer holiday is the longest one, and runs from mid-June until early September. Summer camp is one of kids’ favourite places to go to, where they can make new friends and try some new activities. Winter holiday starts from mid-December and ends in early January. Most kids and their parents go to spend time together over the Christmas period. Spring break comes in mid- March and it is usually a 10-day holiday. Schools in Japan start in April, as most people think that spring is the perfect time for new things. For school children, summer holiday lasts from July 20th to August 31st. Most kids are busy with club activities including sports and dancing. Spring break starts at the end of March and continues till early April.

My son wanted to invite him to have lunch with us and I agreed. My son gave him some delicious food and the boy ate it up. My son even shared his favorite cake with the boy. After lunch, the boy went away without saying "thank you". I was a little disappointed(失望的), but I knew my son was very happy today. What's more, he learned about sharing.

This time is so special that schools often give students a two-week break from their schoolwork to enjoy the winter holidays. My family takes this chance to spend two weeks together. We build a tree and decorate it with many colorful lights. On the top of the tree, we put a shining star. As night sets in, the dark room is warmlylit upby a bright Christmas tree. Then, on Christmas Eve (前夕), our family have all the traditional American foods: turkey, sweet potatoes, vegetables, nuts, pies, and other good dishes. On this very night, there is an old story, namedSanta Claus. Santa Claus will fly from the North Pole and give presents to the children under the Christmas tree. However, he only gives presents to those who have behaved(表现)well the whole year. So children across America try to do one last good deed(行动)before the night by baking (烘烤) Santa some cookies, trying to ask him for presents. This is why Santa is so fat! That night, children are often excited, hoping to find presents. The next day, they rush out of bed very early.

People all over the world celebrate(庆祝)Halloween. It falls on October 31st every year. On that night, children dress up in costurnes(戏服)and go door-to-door to ask for candy. They shout, "Trick or treat!" This means "give me a gift like sweets or a toy, or I'll play a trick on you!" It's a big part of the holiday. But some US cities have rules about trick-or treating. They say kids above the age of 12 can't go trick-or-treating. Some people just think it's silly(可笑的)for older teens to go trick-or-treating. Others think that teenagers stop tick-or-treating at a certain age anyway. They go to a party with their friends instead. I stopped tick-or-treating around my early to mid-teens.

In Canada and the United States, people enjoy entertaining(请客)at home.They often invite friends over for a meal, a party, or just for a coffee and conversation. Here are the kinds of things people say when they invite someone to their home: “Would you like to come over for dinner Saturday night?” “Hey, we're having a party on Friday.

But we would feel lonely if we never had a friend. No two people are just the same. Friends sometimes don’t get on well. That doesn’t mean that they no longer like each other. Most of the time they will make it up and become friends again. Sometimes friends move away. Then we feel very sad. We miss them very much but we can call them or write to them. We can also make new friends. It is encouraging to find out how much we like new people when we get to know them. There’s more good news for people who have friends. They live longer than people who don’t. Why? Friends can make us feel happy. Being happy helps you stay well.

The way we spend our time can be divided into three “bottles”. These are the necessary tasks(任务) bottle, the voluntary(自愿的) tasks bottle and the happiness bottle. Every day, we spend time filling the necessary tasks bottle with useful things, like making money, buying food and paying bills. We then fill another bottle with voluntary tasks. These are things that we do for others, but we may not enjoy them. This bottle gets filled with tasks like taking children to activities, cooking family meals, and washing your husband’s socks. Those bottles are very important. If we don’t fill them each day, our family won’t run well. However, we often forget to fill the third bottle—the happiness bottle that we fill with enjoyable activities. Is your happiness bottle sometimes empty at the end of the day? Between doing all the necessary and voluntary tasks, time flies fast, and before we know it, it is time for bed. We all have days like that. This is why each day we must try to fill our happiness bottle. I usually fill mine by going to the dancing class. But this week, I had the happiness of taking part in a guitar practice in my neighborhood. We showed our musical talent and practiced music for charity. It was a time of fun, friendship and music making. At the end of the evening, my happiness bottle was filled to top. .Will your activities bring joy to your life? Are the other two tasks eating up all your time? Try to find ways to achieve a balance(平衡) between how you fill your three bottles. 137.Which activity is NOT a necessary task? A.Making money B.Paying bills C.Sending your son to a piano lesson Sunday 138.What does the underlined word “it” mean in Paragraph 3?

This means "give me a gift like sweets or a toy, or I'll play a trick on you!"”,可知,“trick or treat”表示“给我像糖果或玩具的礼物,否则我就会捉弄你”,trick意味着“捉弄你”,所以treat就表示“给某人糖果”,故选A。 99.细节理解题。根据“But some US cities have rules about trick-or treating.
