外研版初中英語(yǔ)八年級(jí)上冊(cè)期末復(fù)習(xí)（題型專練）：閱讀理解（I）卷姓名:_ 班級(jí):_ 成績(jī):_一、 閱讀理解 (共10題；共100分)1. （10分） Some people think that as more and more people have televisions in their homes, fewer and fewer people will buy books and newspapers. Why read an article in the newspaper, when the TV news can bring you the information in a few minutes and with pictures? Why read the life story of a famous man, when a short television program can tell you all that you want to know?Television has not killed reading, however. Today, newspapers sell in very large numbers. And books of every kind are sold more than ever before. Books are still a cheap way to get information and enjoyment. Although some books with hard covers are expensive, many books are printed today as paperbooks (平裝本), which are quite cheap. A paperback collection of short stories, for example, is always cheaper than an evening at the cinema or the theater, and you can keep a book for ever and read it many times.Books are a wonderful provider of knowledge and pleasure and some types of books should be in every home. Every home should have a good dictionary. A good encyclopedia (百科全書), though expensive, is useful, too, because you can find information on any subject. Besides, you can have such books as history books, science textbooks, cookbooks, and collections of stories and poems. Then from time to time you can take a book of poems off your shelves and read the thoughts and feelings of your favorite poets. （1）It can be inferred from the passage that _.A . Fewer and fewer people will buy books.B . A good dictionary should be kept in every home.C . Books with hard covers sell better than paperbooks.D . More people like TV programs about famous men.（2）What does the sentence “Television has not killed reading, however.” underlined in the second paragraph suggest?A . People only need reading, though.B . Reading is still necessary today.C . Reading is more fun than television.D . Watching television doesnt help reading.（3）What can we learn from the passage?A . TV programs are a chief provider of knowledge.B . Cinemas are the best choice in getting information.C . Reading is cheap way of learning and having fun.D .

Many of the earthquakes first come under the sea and then happen anywhere on the earth. Especially they often happen near the mountains and seas such as Wenchuan, Japan and Indonesia.When an earthquake happens, its very easy to cause a tsunami (海嘯). Houses fall down, many people are injured and even died.Now scientists are trying their best to study earthquakes. They make maps to show the “earthquake belts (地震帶)”.

Also, they can tell us what to do and how to do. People can even use earthquakes to do something for us humans.（1）Earthquakes often happen in Japan.（2）Sometimes an earthquake happens with a tsunami.（3）Many people lost their lives in the earthquakes because they didnt help each other.（4）In areas in the “earthquake belts”, people build strong houses.（5）Scientists can prevent earthquakes happening.7. （10分）閱讀下面短文，從短文后各題所給四個(gè)選項(xiàng)（A、B、C和D）中，選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。A man in Pakistan is now working to help children get an education.
