Giving pandas a good life
What animal has 6 fingers and wears a black and white coat Yes, it’s the panda! Pandas are so popular because they are cute and shy. They are also friendly to people. They like eating bamboo. It seems that they like sleeping all day if possible.
It is known that pandas are endangered. For one thing, many people cut down lots of trees so they may have terrible living conditions. For another, they may die of illnesses easily because many of them are out of protection.
I hope the government can build more natural panda homes. Also, it is necessary that everyone should treat them as our friends and protect their homes.八年级英语练习

A
The koala
Appearance:
Size: 70—90cm Weight: 5—14kg
The koala with thick hair looks cute but it has very sharp teeth and claws (爪子).
The male koala is larger than the female one.
Food: The koala eats eucalyptus leaves (桉树叶). Each koala eats about 500 grams of leaves per day.
Habit: The koala sleeps for up to 16—18 hours. It prefers to move around in the evening.
Baby fact: A healthy female koala can have one child each year. A baby koala is very small when it is born—only a quarter of an inch. It has no hair and it can’t see either. It lives in its mother’s pouch (育儿袋) for half a year. During this time, it only drinks its mother’s milk.
Danger: The number of koalas in Australia is getting smaller every year, mainly because of people. People cut down a lot of trees, so many koalas have no places to live in and they don’t have enough leaves to eat. There are fewer than 100,000 koalas in the world. Some scientists say if people don’t protect them, we won’t have any koalas within 30 years.
51. When does the koala often move around during a day
A. In the morning. B. In the evening. C. In the afternoon. D. At weekends.
52. If someone sees a newly born koala, he will find that ________.
A. it can see everything B. it is really small C. it has thick hair D. it is very big
53. The koala is in danger now. The main reason is that ____________.

B
Animals do many different, amazing things to get through the winter. Some of them migrate. They travel to other places where the weather is warmer or where they can find food.
Many birds migrate in autumn. The trip can be dangerous, so some travel in large groups. For example, geese(鹅) fly in noisy, “V”-shaped groups. Other kinds of birds fly alone.
Some animals stay active in winter. They must change themselves as the weather changes. Many change their bodies. For example, snowshoe rabbits grow white fur to help them hide in the snow.
Some animals, like mice, collect lots of food in autumn and store it to eat later. Some animals eat different kinds of food as the seasons change.
Some animals hibernate(冬眠) for part or all of the winter. This is a special, very deep sleep. The animal’s body becomes cold, and its heartbeat and breathing(呼吸) slow down. It seldom moves. In autumn, these animals get ready for winter by eating much more food than in summer and storing it as body fat. They use this fat to keep them alive while hibernating.
Water makes good protection for many animals. When the weather gets cold, they move to the bottom of lakes and rivers. There, frogs and many fish hide under rocks or fallen leaves. Cold water holds more oxygen(氧气) than warm water, and frogs can breathe through their skin.
Every type of insect has its own life cycle and that is the way it grows and changes. Different insects spend the winter in different forms of their lives. Some insects also spend the winter without moving. Some insects spend the winter as pupae(蛹). Other insects die after laying eggs in autumn. The eggs change into new insects in spring and everything begins all over again.
54.The underlined word “migrate” in the first paragraph most probably means .
A. change the bodies　　 B. look for food
C. move from one place to another　　 D. sleep in the winter

A few days after the Party Jo saw Laurie again. He was standing at an upstairs window in the mansion(豪宅) and looking down at their garden. Beth and Amy were playing in the snow. They were throwing snowballs and having a lot of fun. Laurie's face was very sad.
“Poor boy!” she thought. He’s all alone. It's a shame .He needs some friends. She couldn’t stop thinking about him. She wanted to go and see him but how could she go to his house without an invitation
Then one snowy afternoon, while she was looking out of the window, she saw Mr Laurence. Laurie's grandfather He was getting into his carriage(马车). He was going out. This gave her an idea.
“Laurie is alone in the house now,” she thought. “ Perhaps he's looking out on his window.”
She put on her hat and an old coat and took a broom(扫帚) and a shovel(铁铲) from the kitchen.
“What are you going to do, Jo ” asked Meg when she saw her sister in the hall.
“I want to get some exercise,” answered Jo with a smile. “I’m going to clear the garden path”
Laurie was standing at the window again. He wasn’t looking at her so she threw a snowball to get his attention. When the snow hit the glass, he turned his head at once and a big snowball changed his pale, sad face. Jo laughed and shouted,“ How are you Are you ill ”
Laurie opened the window and said, I’m better now, thank you. I had a bad cold and I had to stay inside for a week.

Owls are active mainly at night. They hunt when it’s dark. Most of us go for our work and study in the daytime. We almost never see owls, but many of us like these night birds very much. Our love for owls has a long history, and it’s in all cultures. No matter how far you go back, there is always some type of art work or story that includes an owl. These days, we can find owls on company logos, in children’s books, etc. So what makes owls so popular
Some bird researchers believe owls’ popularity lies largely in their “cool” looks. In order to see clearly in the dark, owls have evolved (进化) to have large eyes. Unlike human eyes, their eyes are cylindrical (圆筒状的). So owls cannot roll (翻转) their eyes. Their heads have to do most of the rolling-around work. It’s also for this reason that owls can turn their heads almost around on their necks.
Owls also use sound to hunt. Their ears are lopsided (不平衡)—the left ear is a little higher than the right ear. A noise goes in one ear before it arrives in the other. This helps owls tell which direction a sound is coming from. To make their sense of hearing even better, the owl’s whole face acts like a satellite dish (圆盘式卫星接收器) for sound waves. Their beaks (鸟喙) are very small so that they won’t get in the way.
Thanks to such unusual looks and abilities, owls became known as strange and wonderful animals. For a long time, people made up lots of myths (神话) about them. Some have described owls as the goddess of wisdom. Some say owls are witches (女巫) in disguise (伪装). These stories have made more people become interested in owls and made them become more popular!
62．According to Paragraph 2, owls cannot roll their eyes because ________.
A．their eyes are too large B．their heads are too big
C．their necks are too short D. their eyes are cylindrical
63．According to Paragraph 3, where are owl’s ears usually located (位于)
A．①② B．③④ C．①④ D．②③
64．Which of the following is NOT the reason that owls have a good sense of hearing
A．Theirs ears are lopsided.
B．Their beaks are very small.
C．Their faces are like satellite dishes.
D．They turn their heads almost around on their necks.
65．The underlined word “them” in the last paragraph refers to (指) ________.
A．myths B．owls C．looks D．abilities

Nowadays, people usually shake hands when they meet each other. Do the Chinese always greet others like this In fact, handshaking was introduced to our country around 100 years ago.
There were several kinds of greeting in ancient China. Among them the fist and palm salute(拱手礼) was a quite common one, with a history of about 3,000 years. It was first used by people in the western Zhou Dynasty. In ancient times, if people met a stranger, their hands were always ready to hold something used for fighting. Holding out both hands could make people feel relaxed.
When people meet, men usually use their left hand to hold the right one. It’s believed that people considered the left as the important side for men in Chinese history. While for women, the important side is the right. So when they give the fist and palm salute, they should put their right hand on the top. When someone presents the fist and palm salute to you, you are supposed to do it back as well.
In many wuxia or kung fu TV series and movies, people greet each other with the hold fist salute, or baoquan in Chinese. The gesture(手势) is that the right hand is made a fist, while the left hand is to cover the right fist. It’s similar to the fist and palm salute, but they are different. Baoquan is widely used among kung fu masters and students. So, don’t make a mistake.
