2020-2021年人教版英语 八年级英语下册阅读理解专题复习练习(含解析)

一、八年级英语下册阅读理解专项练习（含答案解析）
1．阅读理解
    Every morning my father buys a newspaper on his way to work. Every evening my mother looks through magazines at home. And every night, I look at the posters with photos of David Beckham and Yao Ming on my bedroom wall before I go to sleep. Can we imagine life without paper or print?
    Paper was first created about 2,000 years ago, and has been made from silk, cotton, bamboo, and, since the 19th century, from wood. People learned to write words on paper to make a book. But in those days, books could only be produced one at a time by hand.  As a result, they were expensive and rare. And because there weren't many books, few people learned to read.
    Then printing was invented in China. When printing was developed greatly at the beginning of the 11th century, books could be produced more quickly and cheaply. As a result, more people learned to read. After that, knowledge and ideas spread quickly.
    Today information can be received online, downloaded from the Internet rather than found in books, and information can be kept on CD-ROMs or machines such as MP3 players.
    Computers are already used in classrooms, and newspapers and magazines can already be read online. So will books be replaced by computers one day? No, I don't think the Yao Ming posters on my bedroom wall will ever be replaced by a two-metre-high computer!
（1）What does the writer do before he goes to sleep?
A. He reads books.                                                B. He reads newspapers.
C. He looks through magazines.                         D. He looks at the posters on the wall.
（2）When was paper first created?
A. About 2,000 years ago.                                    B. In the 19th century.
C. About 1,000 years ago.                                    D. In the 11th century.
（3）Why were books expensive and rare before the invention of printing?
A. People could not read.
B. People could not write words on paper.
C. People could not find silk, cotton or bamboo.
D. People could only produce books one at a time by hand.
（4）What happened after books became cheaper?
A. People didn't want to buy books.                 B. Printing was invented in China.
C. Knowledge and ideas spread quickly.           D. The Internet was introduced to people soon.

2．阅读理解
    When you communicate with others, you express your thoughts and feelings not only through the words you choose, but also through your body language.
    To learn another language is more than just learning words and grammar. It involves （包括） learning about another culture too. Body language is different from culture to culture, so there is something that language learners should know about.
    Sometimes, cultural differences in body language can cause discomfort or misunderstanding. For example, there are cultural differences in how much distance should be kept between two people who are talking with each other. If you would like people to keep a distance, you may feel very uncomfortable when someone keeps trying to stand close to you at a party.
         In some Asian countries, a smile can show embarrassment（尴尬） or apology. However, smiling back at a teacher who is unhappy with you, or someone whose foot you accidentally stepped upon is probably not a good idea in most English-speaking countries.
    In most countries, nodding your head means "yes" and shaking your head means "no". However, nodding and shaking your head have the opposite meanings in Albania.
    Even speakers of the same language, such as British, American or Australian people, may not use the same body language .So learning how to understand and use body language is important to you to improve your communicative abilities.
（1）To learn another language, we need to learn its         .
A. words                             B. grammar                             C. culture                             D. A, B & C
（2）Which of the following sentences can be put in the blank of the fourth paragraph?
A. The world shines when a smile is on your face.
B. Another example of misunderstanding is the use of the smile.
C. Just smile, you will find the world is so peaceful and beautiful.
D. Never forget to smile because it is sometimes better than an apology.
（3）In Albania, shaking your head means         .
A. yes                               B. no                               C. thank you                               D. excuse me
（4）Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Body language is the same in every country.
B. In every Asian country, a smile can show apology.
C. Speakers of the same language use the same body language.
D. You should keep a comfortable distance when talking with someone.
【答案】 （1）D
（2）B
（3）A
（4）D
【解析】【分析】主要讲了怎样理解和使用肢体语言的重要性。
（1）细节题。根据To learn another language is more than just learning words and grammar. It involves （包括） learning about another culture too.可知我们需要学习单词、语法和文化，故选D。
（2）细节题。根据第三段Sometimes, cultural differences in body language can cause discomfort or misunderstanding.可知肢体语言文化差异可能导致误解，所以第四段讲的是微笑带来的误解，故选B。
（3）细节题。根据However, nodding and shaking your head have the opposite meanings in Albania.可知在Albania点头是no，摇头是yes，故选A。
（4）细节题。根据there are cultural differences in how much distance should be kept between two people who are talking with each other.可知两个人交谈时应该保持合适的距离，故选D。

4．阅读理解
    Most American children eat potatoes. But many children don't know what of the potato is the best food. Take a knife and cut from the middle of the potato a piece as thin as paper. I hold the piece between your eyes and light. You will see that the potato has skin（皮）, an outside rim（边缘）and an inside part. The outside rim which is right under the skin of the potato, is the most valuable part of all. But this is often thrown away with the skin. Even the skin itself is better for food than the inside. When eating a cooked potato, if you choose the inside and leave the outside, you are throwing the best part of it. If you can't cat the whole potato, eat the outside rim first and leave the inside part.

A. It has only one part, outside rim.

（2）What is the best part of a potato?
A. Outside rim.                          B. Inside part.                          C. Middle.                          D. Skin.

（4）D
【解析】【分析】短文大意： 这是一篇科普性短文，我们只知道土豆有皮和内肉组成，真的不知皮和内肉之间有一层边缘，而且边缘部分的营养价值更高。我们在吃土豆时，即使舍其肉也不可丢其边缘，切记。
（1）细节理解题。根据 You will see that the potato has skin（皮）, an outside rim（边缘）and an inside part. 可知洋葱包括三部分。故选C。
（2）细节理解题。根据  The outside rim which is right under the skin of the potato, is the most valuable part of all.  可知外面边缘是最好的一部分。故选A。
（3）细节理解题。根据 Even the skin itself is better for food than the inside. 甚至皮本身比里面更好。故选B。

【点评】此题考查阅读理解。 细节题的命题方法很多，如可能是对某个细节用同义结构转换后进行考查、也可能是将文章中的几个细节（通常是四个）放在一起要求考生判断是非（选出正确的一项或选出错误的一项）或对几个细节进行排序等。解答这类试题时，一个常用的方法就是运用定位法，即根据题干或选项中的线索词从原文中找到相关的句子，与选项进行比较从而确定答案。对于主旨大意题要根据文章的主题句或文章的中心思想确定。
