I took out my phone and took him on an online travel by showing him beautiful videos and pictures of popular attractions. Watching the grandpa smile brightly, I felt extremely happy too.

The children knew the trees would fall on the railway line.If the train hit the trees,there would be a big accident.They had to stop the next train.The next train was arriving at 11:29, only five minutes away,and it was just 15 kilometers from them. "We can run towards the train and wave to the driver,"Phyllis said.

Being friendly and helpful is a good thing.It helps you build friendships.However,trying to please others without thinking about your own happiness can make you anxious.Luckily, there are some steps that you can take to stop being a"people-pleaser". To start with,it's important to know your limits(R)in your life.Be clear about what you want to do.You can also tell others you are only free for a certain period of time.When someone asks you for help,tell him or her that you need some time to think about it.Use this time to ask yourself:Do you really want to do this?How much time will it take?By giving yourself some time to think,you'll be better able to make right decisions. People always try to please others because they have little confidence in themselves.In this situation,you can try meaningful self-talk.Remind yourself that you have dreams too.You don't have to waste your time to do things that don't bring you joy.Making a sudden change can be hard,so start by taking small steps.You may,for example,send a message to say"no".Then, continue to say"no"face to face.Practise this in different kinds of situations,such as talking to a salesperson or ordering at a restaurant. Stopping being a"people-pleaser"doesn't mean you have to give up being kind and helpful. You can still do good things,but on your own situations. 46.How does the writer start the passage? A.By telling stories. B.By asking questions. C.By giving examples. D.By explaining reasons. 47.What does the underlined word"anxious"mean in Paragraph 2? A.frightened. B.proud. C.pleasant. D.worried. 48.According to the text,what can you do to stop being a "people-pleaser"? a.Build up confidence. b.Start by taking small steps. c.Set limits in your lives. d.Ask others questions before providing help. A.abc B.abd C.acd D.bed 49.Which of the following best shows the structure of the text? A.①/②③④⑤ B.①/②③④/⑤ C.①/②/③④/⑤ D.①②/③④⑤ 八年级英语试题第6页（共8页） 50.What's the main purpose of the passage?
