1、八年级英语专项练习 首字母填空（1）Heres a part of an e-mail answer from Joe giving some advice to his son in college. “When I was young, I often met t1 about what to do and what not to do. My grandmother told me not to worry about those things. I o 2 did them once a year or once a lifetime. I 3 , I should try to do
2、 well those things, and I do them every day. For example, I need to eat every day, so I should learn how to c4 . I need to talk to o5 every day, so I should learn how to work with d6 people and know how to s 7 well. I walk every day, so my s 8 should be all right and comfortable. Every night I sleep
3、, so my bed should let me have a good rest. Taking care of the e 9 things m 10 that you do a better job of the one in a lifetime things as well.”（2）Which animal do we need m 1 ? Dogs? Horses? No! The a2 to the question is cows. Why cows? Cows give us milk. And milk is one of our most important k3 of
4、 food.Suppose(假设)that all the milk cows make in one year were put i4 bottles. And suppose these bottles were put side by side. The line of bottles would go all around the world 400 t 5 That is a lot of milk, less than half of it is used for d 6 and cooking. Most of it is u 7 to make butter cheese, i
5、ce cream and many other things. It takes many cows to give us that m8 milk. But not as many as it used to. A cow used to give only about 1,500 quarts(夸脱)of milk a year. Now a fine cow may g 9 more than 3,000 quarts in a year.Why do cows give more milk today? Now farmers have better cows. The cows ge
6、t better c10 and better food.（3）( S=salesgirl; H=Han mei )S: Good morning. Can I help you?H: Yes. I b1 this blouse last week, but theres something wrong with it. When I w 2 it, the colours ran. I cant w 3 it now. I want you to c4 this blouse or give me my m5 back.S: Let me see. Did you wash it in h6
7、 water? H: Of course not.S: It s 7 as if it hasnt been washed following the i 8 . Did you leave it in water b 9 you washed it?H: No, I didnt do that, e 10 . I didnt put it in cold water until I washed it.（4）If you dont use your arms or your legs for some time,they will become weak; when you start us
8、ing them again,they will gradually （逐渐地）become stronger again.Everybody knows this. Yet many people do not seem to know that it is the s 1 with memory. When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he d 2 give it enough chance to become stronger. If a friend says that his arms an
9、d legs are weak, we k 3 that it is his own fault. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his p 4 are to blame, and f 5 of us know that it is just his own fault. Have you e 6 found some people cant read or write but they usually have b 7 memories? This is b 8 they cannot
10、read or write and they h 9 to remember things; they cannot write them down in a little notebook.They must remember dates, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the whole time being exercised. So if you want a good memory, l 10 from these people : practise remembering.（5）A storm dropped(降) hea
11、vy rains on central and southern parts of China.The radio says that a1 the Xiangjiang River in Hunan, floods caused by terrible r 2 in the past weeks killed 25 people and 13 others were missing.The Chinese Government warned some parts in Yunnan and the city of Chongqing of possible heavy rains over
12、the f 3 few days.In Changsha water levels rose(水位上升) to 38 metres early Monday morning, about 3 metres a4 the danger line.In Guangdong, at l5 21 people have been killed, while three were s6 hurt and seven went missing w 7 heavy floods hit northern parts by Saturday.The cities of Shaoguan, Meizhou an
13、d Heyuan w 8 hardest hit and many people were left homeless(无家可归).About 620 million yuan has been lost in the floods. Guangdong has sent something u 9 to Meizhou, Heyuan and Shaoguan to help the people who had lost homes build their h 10 again. （6）Traveling to all countries of the world gets easier
14、and easier, but how well do we know and u1 each other? Here is a simple test. Imagine(设想) you will hold a m 2 at four oclock, what time should you e 3 your foreign business friends to come? If they are German, they will a4 on time. If they are American, theyll probably be fifteen minutes early. If t
15、hey are British, theyll be fifteen minutes late.The British seemed to think since the English l5 was widely used in the world, what they did was certain to be widely understood. Very soon they f6 they were completely(完全地) wrong. For e 7 , the British are happy to have a business lunch and discuss bu
16、siness matters with a drink during the meal; the Japanese p 8 not to work while eating. Lunch is a time for them to relax and get to know e 9 other, and they dont drink at lunch. The Germans like to talk about business b 10 dinner; the French like to eat first and talk afterwards. They have to be we
17、ll fed and watered before they discuss anything.（7）Once Effendi had a joke with the Prime Minister（首相）. He said the Minister w 1 die the next day. The next day, the Minister really f 2 off the horse and died. When the king h 3 of this, he got angry and sent his men to c 4 Effendi at once.W 5 Effendi
18、 came, the king shouted a 6 “Effendi, since you knew when my minister would die, you must also know the date of your own death. Say it out, or youll die today.”Effendi l 7 at the king and answered, “But how can I know? Ill die two days e 8 than you.” The king was a 9 that he would die if he killed E
19、ffendi. He thought he must keep Effendi alive（活着）as long as he could. So he l 10 him go.（8）Heres a part of an e-mail answer from Joe giving some advice to his son in college. “When I was young, I often met t1 about what to do and what not to do. My grandmother told me not to worry about those things
20、. I o 2 did them once a year or once a lifetime. I 3 , I should try to do well those things, and I do them every day. For example, I need to eat every day, so I should learn how to c4 . I need to talk to o5 every day, so I should learn how to work with d6 people and know how to s 7 well. I walk every day, so my s 8 should be all right and comfortable. Every night I sleep, so my bed should let me have a good rest. Taking care of the e 9 things m 10 that you do a better job of the one in a lifetime things as well.”2
