If you want to watch and know something about birds, you must find a good place near the bird nest（巢）.
Birds sit on eggs and take care of their babies from April to June. Because the baby birds are too young to leave the nest, parents often go to look for food and come back in several minutes. So it is good to watch birds. When we watch birds, we’d better hide ourselves in a close place to the nest, and it’s better to use binoculars .
But how to make a bird nest? A good bird nest must be very fine, strong, thick and comfortable. If you want to make one, please follow these:
a) Each nest must have six boards (木板). Don’t make the boards too slippery (滑).
b) Dig a small hole in the front of the nest as a “door”. The “door” is big enough so birds can fly in or out easily.
c) Make sure the rainwater can’t go into the nest.
d) One piece of the board should be easy to open.
e) Don’t forget to color the nest.
( )56. The most important thing in watching birds is to .
A. look for a place near the bird nest B. climb up to the trees
C. catch a bird D. kill a bird
( )57. We have to hide ourselves to ___________, when we’re watching birds.
A. take better care of them B. use the binoculars
C. make them do everything as usual D. kill them at last
( )58. If we make the nest too slippery, .
A. it won’t be very beautiful B. it won’t be easy to make
C. it won’t be strong D. it’s very difficult for birds to hold or stand on it
( )59. We should leave a hole in the front of the nest so that easily.
A. we can clean the nest B. birds can fly in or out
C. we can hang（挂） D. we can make it
( ) 60. What’s the best title of this passage?

六、任务型阅读(5分)
Now students’ English handwriting gets worse and worse. That makes their teachers feel worried. Is your English handwriting beautiful? If not, here are four steps that really work!
◆Use paper that has lines
Using paper that has lines can keep you writing straight when you write English words or sentences. Those lines on the paper can help you to write words in the right size. Be sure to fill the lined space completely. And make sure those capital letters(大写字母) are written properly.
◆Slow down
If your writing is hard to read, try slowing down a little. For some kids, going slower makes the handwriting clear. If you write too fast, it’s hard for you to stop where you should, and even worse, you may make more mistakes.
◆ Hold your pencil right
When you hold your pencil the correct way, writing is much easier. Some kids press(按,压) down really hard when they write. That makes the handwriting not nice. Try to relax yourself and don’t hold the pencil so hard. Let your writing appear nice and clean. If you do so, people will guess you are a student with a good habit.
◆Draw more pictures
Drawing can improve your handwriting. You need to use the skills to control your pencil better when you are drawing pictures. Even though you have no chance to draw at school, you can practice by yourself at home.
Handwriting is very important. Imagine you are a world-famous movie star or a well-known sports player, what do you do when your fans run up to you? Give them your autographs (亲笔签名), of course！


Four?? 1? ??to make your handwriting beautiful
Use?paper 2 lines Using paper that has lines can stop you from writing up or 3 when you write English words or sentences. Be sure to fill the lined space completely. And make sure those capital letters are written 4 .

七、阅读表达(5分)(答案不超过5个单词)
In ancient times(古代), people thought that their gods(神) lived on the tops of mountains. They believed that anything above them was nearer to their gods than them. They thought that birds were messengers(信使) from the gods. There were many beliefs(信念) about how to treat birds. Some people even believed that killing a bird was an act against the gods and would bring bad luck. In some parts of the USA, people believe that if they hear an owl(猫头鹰) in the early evening, it means death. Another link(联系) with these past beliefs is in an English expression. People no longer believe that birds are messengers of the gods, but when someone knows a secret about another person, he or she might say, "A little bird told me about it."
Where did people think their gods live?

Which was nearer to gods than humans?

Dear Mr Zhang:
I’d like to join the Birdwatching Society. I am a Grade 8 students .I am interested in learning about different kinds of birds. My favourite subjects are Science and Biology. I enjoy the natural beauty.
Last week, I with my classmates went to Yancheng Nature Reserve to watch the birds. It is home to different kinds of birds. Some birds live in the reserve all year round, while some only go there for a short stay. The cold weather makes the birds fly south to spend the winter. Some writers like to include birds in their poems.
Birds are part of our life. The Chinese government has made laws to protect the birds. I decide to invite my classmates to help me count and describe the birds.
You can call me at 0523-87666789 or e-mail me at Kimi@163.com (?mailto:Kimi@163.com?)
Yours sincerely
Kimi
