When a man was walking by some elephants, he suddenly stopped. He wondered why these huge animals were being held only by a small rope tied to their front legs. No chains, no cages. It was clear that the elephants could break the rope at any time, but for sonic reasons, they did not.
He saw a trainer nearby and asked why the animals just stood there and didn’t try to get away.“Well,” the trainer said, “ when they were very young and much smaller, we used the same rope to keep them from running away. At that age, it’s enough to hold them. As they grow up. They are conditioned(习惯于) to believe they cannot break the rope. They believe it can still hold them, so they never try to break free.
The man was surprised. These animals could break free whenever(无论何时) they wanted, but because they believed they couldn’t, they were stuck right where they were.
How many of us go through life like the elephants - holding onto the belief(看法) that we cannot do something simply(只是) because we failed at it once before
Failure(失败) is a part of learning. If we fail once, it doesn’t mean we can never succeed(成功). If we try again and again, maybe we will succeed one day. So don’t be afraid of failure and keep on trying.
29．Why did the elephants never try to break the rope after they grew up
A．Because they liked being tied. B．Because they Were too weak to break it.
C．Because they didn’t want to break it. D．Because they thought they couldn’t break it.
30．The underlined word “stuck” in Paragraph 3 means" _________ .
A．lent B．caught C．killed D．found
31．What does the writer want to tell us
A．Elephants should be set free. B．Failure can help us succeed.
C．Never let failure stop you from trying again. D．People should look after the elephants well.
C
Farmer John and Farmer Bob were neighbours. For more than 30 years, they had been getting along very well.
Then their good relationship (关系) broke. It began with a small thing. Then bitter (仇恨的) words, and then weeks of silence (沉默). One morning John woke up to find a stream (小溪) between the two farms. “It must be Bob,” John thought.
Then one day there was a knock on John’s door. He opened it to find a carpenter (木匠) standing at the doorway.
“I’m looking for a few days’ work.” the carpenter said.
“I do have a job for you,” John said. “Look across the stream at that farm. That’s my neighbour Bob. He dug (挖) a stream between the two farms. I want you to build a fence (栅栏) — an 8-foot fence. I don’t want to see his place or his face anymore. I don’t have such a neighbour!”
The carpenter said, “I think I know what to do, sir, and I’ll be able to do a job that makes you happy.”
About sunset when the farmer returned, the carpenter had just finished his job. The farmer’s eyes opened wide. There was no fence there at all!
It was a bridge! And the neighbour, Bob, was coming across, with his hand outstretched (伸出). “Hi, John! You’re quite a guy to build this bridge!”
Then they met in the middle, taking each other’s hands. “I’m terribly sorry for what I have said and done. We should be good to each other,” said Bob.
Then they turned to see the carpenter, who was ready to go. “No, wait! Stay a few days. I have a lot of other jobs for you,” said John. “I’d love to stay,” the carpenter said, “but I have more bridges to build.”
32．Farmer John thought that Farmer Bob dug the stream because _________.

33．What does the underlined sentence “You’re quite a guy to build this bridge” mean

C．John was silly to build such a bridge. D．John should build the bridge earlier.

Do you look like your parents What genetic traits (遗传特性) did your parents pass on to you Was it their eye color or their height It could be their sense of humor or their musical talent. Or maybe it was their fear of mathematics.
A research at Ohio State University in the US has found that genetics are partly responsible for children’s math skills and anxiety about math.
Scientists studied over 500 sets of twins to find out how genetics affect math anxiety. Over a period of 10 years, the twins completed math tests and filled out surveys about their levels of math anxiety. They found that fraternal twins (twins with different genetics) had different levels of skill and anxiety about math. Identical twins (twins with the same gene set) have similar levels.
This shows that people’s fear of math is partially affected by their genetic makeup (基因构造). Math anxiety has a strong effect on a child’s abilities. The University of Chicago found math anxiety can cause the same feeling as being physically hurt.
This anxiety means that some students are not willing to study math as much as they should. Therefore, they become even worse at math and less confident in their skill. This only adds to their fear.
But if you’re bad at math, don’t try to blame (责怪) it on your parents. The environment, including school and family, is also part of the equation (影响因素).
36．The underlined word “anxiety” in Paragraph 2 refers to a/an ________ feeling.
A．unhappy B．curious C．relaxing D．crazy
37．What did the researchers at Ohio State University find
A．Parents can pass their eye color on to their children.
B．Children’s math skills are determined by their parents.
C．Math anxiety has something to do with genetics.
D．Fear of math is very common among twins.
38．What do we know from the story
A．People are born with math anxiety.
B．There is no way to deal with math anxiety.
C．Parents should learn math well themselves.
D．Genetics is not the only cause for math anxiety.
39．According to the passage, what is responsible for children’s math anxiety
A．Genetics. B．The environment.
C．School and family. D．All the above.
40．Which of the following is TRUE
A．Math anxiety is the same as being physically hurt.
B．The feeling caused by math anxiety is not different from that of being physically hurt.
C．People’s fear of math is totally affected by their genetic makeup.
D．Fraternal twins have the same genetics.

Many people today like to play with their phones more than staying with friends and talking face to face. 51 When you take a trip outside by subway or bus, you can easily see some people writing messages to others using QQ or WeChat. 52 They may never see some of their friends in real life, but they feel happy because they think their friends are everywhere.
53 For them, friends are not just for writing messages or using emojis (表情包). Friends should also show their care for each other when they have some problems and need help. For example, when you’re lying on a bed in a hospital, it’ll make you happier to see your friends visit you than just getting some message on WeChat. When you don’t do well in a subject, it can touch your heart more when your friends study with you than just hearing them say “Come on (加油)”.
54 After years of being together, true friends never really leave each other. 55 Their words may not touch you, but they are always there to help you when you really need them.
A．They are unlike the online “friends”.
B．So they usually don’t have many friends.
C．Everyone wants to be around people who are nice to them.
D．As a result, most people’s friends today are on the Internet.
E．But some people think these kinds of friends are different from real friends.
F．They may be happy, bored, or surprised when they see their friends’ messages.
G．Though friends can have different ideas and be unhappy with each other, they reach for each other’s hand in difficult times.

At about 7 pm, I had to go back to Qingyuan because I had after-school classes on Saturday morning. It was a wonderful trip. I wish to come and visit Guangzhou with you one day.

【例文】
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am Lily, and I am a Grade 8 student.
I am tall and have short hair. I want to join the reading club. I enjoy reading. Reading plays an important part in our life. We can get knowledge by reading. Reading can open up our eyes. The more we read, the more we know about the outside world. Reading can not only improve yourself, but also make you more confident. What’s more, we can gain happiness through reading.
So I’d like to suggest that everyone read more books during our spare time and develop a good reading habit. And we should read more classics to learn more culture of the world. Let’s grow up with reading. Let reading become a part of our life!
I am looking forward to your reply.
Yours sincerely,
