浙江省天台县坦头中学2018-2019学年八年级下学期英语第一次学情检测试卷(含听力音频)

阅读理解

    As a volunteer teacher, I traveled a long way to a small village school in Longzhou, Guangxi. On my way there, I thought about the village, the school, and the children there. However, my heart sank when I arrived there. It wasn't what I expected. It didn't look like a school at all! The school had only three rooms, one for Grades 1, 2 and 3, and the other for Grades 4, 5 and 6. There was a third one for me.

    The children welcomed me warmly on my first day. They asked me a lot of questions, and I told them stories about myself and my life in Beijing. The next day, I gave them a test to find out their level(水平). To my surprise, though the test was very easy, over half of the students couldn't pass it. I knew they needed me.

    I was busy preparing lessons, reading test papers every night. I enjoyed teaching these lovely and hard-working children, and I could see that they were making progress with my help. I have also learned a lot from them. I understand their lives better, and we are now good friends.

    I have worked in Longzhou for a year now. I'm happy, and the experience has been very useful for me. I love the small village and the children. In fact, I would like to continue working here.

A few days ago, the British polar explorer and environmentalist (极地探险家及环境学家) Robert Swan visited our school and we asked him to give a talk on his trips. He was the first person walking to both the North and South Poles and he did something really amazing by reaching the South Pole only on renewable energy (可再生能源) . 

Swan's stories of his trips really impressed me. It was more than 30 years ago when he first went to the South Pole. There was nothing they could use to talk to people outside there and the nearest person to him and his teammates was 2, 500 kilometers away. So they had to face all the problems by themselves. He also told us that when taking a shower during the trip, you had to take off all your clothes in the temperature of -30℃ and finished the shower as fast as you could. 

In 2017, Swan set foot on the South Pole again, this time with his son. The trip was highly great, not only because Swan was already 61 years old, but also because it was the world's first trip to Antarctica (南极洲) to be made only using renewable energy. 

Also, he talked about the importance of saving energy and taking good care of our planet (星球). After his talk, I was sure what I should do and the hope for the wonderful future washed over me.
