The moon is the nearest neighbour in space. It is our satellite (卫星) and men have visited it already. It is smaller than the earth. Plants can’t grow on the moon 18 there is no air or water on it.
The moon doesn’t have its own light. It shines back the light of the sun. When the sun is shining on the side of the moon which faces us, it 19 a great ball. We can’t see the other side of the moon. Because that side never faces the earth.
In fact, the moon isn’t as 20 as it looks. It is three hundred and eighty thousand kilometres away from the earth. Of course we can fly to the moon in a 21 .

The museum made the decision because it 23 that banning (禁止) cell-phones was useless because they were everywhere these days.
As museums 24 accept the presence (存在) of cell-phones, they also start to think about ways that they can work with 25 and technology. One way is to design apps that can provide visitors with more 26 . The Brooklyn Museum, for example, has an app through which visitors can ask the staff questions about artworks in real time.
Virtual reality (虚拟现实), too, is becoming part of the experience of going to museums. The British Museum has experimented with virtual-reality headphones.

三、任务型阅读
(2022上·上海金山·八年级校联考期末)More than 50,000,000 people live in the rainforests of the world and most of them do not hurt the forest they live in. They eat the fruits that grow on the forest trees, but they do not cut them down. They kill some animals to eat, but they do not destroy them.
When we cut down the rainforests, we destroy these forest people, too. In 1900, there were 1,000,000 forest people in the Amazon forest. In 1980, there were only 200,000.
The Yanomami people live along the rivers of the rainforest in the north of Brazil. They have lived in the rainforest for about 10,000 years and they use more than 2,000 different plants for food and for medicine. But in 1988, someone found gold in their forest, and suddenly 45,000 people came to the forest and began looking for gold. They cut down the forest to make roads. They made more than a hundred airports. The Yanomami lost land and food. Many died because new diseases came to the forest with the strangers.
The Yanomami people tried to save their forest, because it was their home. But the people who wanted gold were stronger.
Many forest people try to save their forests. Chico Mendes was famous in Brazil because he wanted to keep the forest for his people. In December 1988, people who wanted to cut down the forest killed Chico Mendes.
As time goes by, the problem still exists. We must do something to keep the rainforests now!
29.How many people live in the rainforests of the world
30.How long have the Yanomami people lived in the rainforest in the north of Brazil
31.Why did many Yanomami people die
32.Chico Mendes wanted to keep the forest for his people, didn’t he
33.What should we do to save the rainforests
(2022上·上海虹口·八年级上外附中校考期末)More than 65 million years ago, at the end of the Cretaceous Period(白垩纪), many species died off during a global disaster often called the K-Pg extinction. The end of the Cretaceous Period saw some very big changes in Earth’s oceans and on its lands. It wiped out up to 80% of all animal species, including the dinosaurs. But 20% of the animals that were alive with the dinosaurs did survive. What were these amazing animals How and why did they survive while so many others disappeared forever Behold the survivors of the K-Pg mass extinction.
Spider (Arachnid)
The earliest web-spinning arachnids (蛛形纲动物)produced silk from their abdomens about 386 million years ago. These ancient arachnids are closely related to today’s spiders. The original function of spider webs was probably to wrap eggs in a protective covering. Later, spiders evolved to use their silk to spin webs for catching prey. This ingenious invention helped them save energy while hunting and made it easier for them to survive.
Dragonflies (Meganeura 巨脉蜻蜓)
Today these flying insects have wings with a span of about 6 inches. But the earliest dragonflies used to grow to huge sizes 325 million years ago. The Meganeura dragonfly had a wingspan of almost 27 inches and would have dwarfed the largest modern dragonfly. In the oxygen-rich swamp environment of the Cretaceous, their large size helped Meganeura to absorb needed oxygen. But after the K-Pg extinction, the air and water contained less oxygen. Dragonflies adapted to their new environment by becoming smaller.
Crocodile (Sarcosuchus 帝王鳄)
The largest Sarcosuchus from the Cretaceous was 39 feet long. This is three times longer than the biggest modern crocodile. Crocodiles are predators and have probably hunted in much the same way for the past 225 million years. They have survived all this time by matching their relatively small size with their extremely powerful jaws that produce a great biting force.
Answer the following questions in complete sentences.
34.When did the K-Pg extinction happen
35.How did spiders survive
36.What were Meganeura’s large-sized wings used for
37.Dragonflies didn’t become smaller to adapt to the new environment, did they
38.Compared with crocodiles today, did crocodiles 225 millions ago hunt differently or similarly
