八年级上册期末复习专项-阅读理解(一) Are you an eating-lover? Do you want to eat every delicious food in the world? Then do you watch the popular program A Bite of China ? It's a TV program on Chinese delicious food which has been produced by CCTV. Is there any holiday that isn't celebrated with special festival food? Here are several traditional Chinese foods : Noodles are a symbol of long life in Chinese culture. They are as much a part of Chinese birthday celebration as a birthday cake with its candles lit in many Western countries. Since noodles mean long life, it is considered very unlucky to cut the noodles off. Although Westerners sometimes may be very sorry to see fish lying on the plate, in China a whole fish is a symbol of richness. In fact, at a party it is a tradition to serve the whole fish last, pointed towards the most valued guest. Fish also has a special meaning because the Chinese word for fish, yu, sounds like the word for richness or plenty, and it is believed that eating fish will help your wishes come true in the year to come.

She didn't sing well, and even out of tune(调). So it is really a noise pollution(噪音污染) for me. One day, soon after I sat down behind the computer, I heard the girl singing again. I felt it was too noisy, so I had my husband go to next door and complain(拖怨) about the noise. Ten minutes later, my husband came back with a sad look, saying, "That girl is only 17 but she had bone cancer. Her mother said that the more painful(痛的) it is, the louder(更大声地) her daughter sings. " I know now the singing helped reduce(减少 ) her pains. I said to my husband, "Please tell her mother that the girl can sing as she likes. We don't mind it at all. " From that day on, I no longer thought the girl did anything wrong and even got used to her singing. I felt as if(好像) it were like the smell of sunbeams and watching the flowers and plants.

Studies show that video games can be good for hand-eye skills, problem-solving (解决问题的 )skills, and the mind's ability(能力 ) . But too much video game playing can cause health problems. It's hard to get enough active play and exercise if you're always inside playing video games. And without enough exercise, kids can become overweight. Really too much video-game playing also can be bad for kids' friendship and school grades. But here's the good news, playing games some of the time can be OK. Just for no more than I or 2 hours a week and choose good games. What's a good game? That depends on how old you are. Your mom or dad can help choose some which is good for you.If you can choose one to make yourself better and make progress(迸步) , that's even better. As a teenager(青少年) , you might challenge(挑战) your mom, dad-or even your grandrna-to play with them or try some cartoons. By doing so, you can improve(提高 ) friendship with them and even make them feel good. But most teenagers dislike to do so. They prefer to play alone or with friends. But to be honest(坦白说) , this really makes a great difference. There's a lot of discussion(讨论) these days about video games. Parents and teachers want to know how to help kids to choose good games.1. Studies show that for kids video games are_______.2. It's_______ for school children to play too many video games.3. Children can choose good games with the help of______.4. The problem about playing video games is _________ .(十一) Art lovers around the world think about this question for so many years : why does Mona Lisa smile?

It would never let birds stay on its flower. Then all the birds started staying away from Gulaab. Behind Gulaab, there was a little yellow flower. People called it Junglee. Junglee wasn't more beautiful than Gulaab, but it welcomed the birds to stay on its flower. All the birds in the garden liked it. This year the king went to the garden as before. The gardener pointed at the rose and said to the king, "Your favorite flower, my king. " Of course, the king also saw the yellow flower behind it and asked, “What flower is that?" “ Oh!

If you smoke, you are twice likely to get a heart attack(心脏病). And the more you smoke, the earlier the heart attack is likely to get. For example, a 50-year-old who smokes more than 20 cigarettes a day is four times more likely to have heart disease than a non-smoker of the same age. What does smoking do to the heart? First of all, it makes the heart beat faster and increases the blood pressure(血压).The cigarette smoke also reduces the amount of oxygen(氧气) in the blood. Consequently, the heart has to work harder, with less oxygen. Finally, your arteries(动脉) will narrow(变窄) faster if you smoke. So if you want to reduce your chances of getting heart diseases, the answer is easy-not to smoke. Don't copy your friends and other people who smoke. If you smoke, find out how to stop. Stopping isn't easy, but you'll be healthier.1. If you smoke, you are_______ likely to get a heart attack.2. What does smoking do to the heart first?A. It makes your arteries become narrow.B.
