湖南省衡阳市2016-2017学年八年级上学期英语期末考试试卷

阅读理解

    How do animals communicate (交流) with each other? They have special “languages”. In fact, they are using signals (信号). Different signals have different meanings.

    For example, when a bee (蜜蜂) finds food somewhere, it flies home quickly. It can't speak, but it can tell others by dancing. Other bees will know where and how far the food is.

    Some animals show their feelings by making sounds. For example, when a dog is angry, it barks (吠). At this time, you'd better stay away from it. Birds can make several sounds to show different meanings. Sometimes we humans show feelings by making sounds instead of by speaking. For example, when we feel painful (疼痛的), we cry“Oh!”or“Ouch!”.

    We humans have languages and words. We can communicate face to face by speaking. We can write down what happened in order to remember clearly. We can also send (寄) messages to people far away. But animals can't.

Going Green

Green is no longer just a color. It is a new way of thinking about the world and a way of living your life. It's catching on all over the world. More and more people decide to "go green" because they know that we only have one planet to live on. We won't be able to live on it much longer if we keep wasting energy, and destroying(破坏) our home with air, land, and water pollution.

"Green Living" means:

    Understanding that your choices affect(影响) not just you, but everybody everywhere.

    Understanding that your choices affect not just today, but the future.

Understanding that when we talk about "saving the planet" or "saving the environment," we are actually talking about saving ourselves!

You may be thinking: "Hey, I'm just one person, on a planet with billions. I can't really make a difference." Well, have you ever seen a group of people do "the wave(波浪)"? It always starts off with one or two people, jumping up and down like crazy. Soon thousands of people are joining in. "Going green" is just like that. It starts with small, simple actions. It can soon build into a wave that will change the whole planet and lead us all to healthier, happier lives.

    Many students have already shared with us their efforts to help the environment:

Gabrielle, 12, writes, "I have helped my community plant a garden and I ride my bike or skateboard to school."

Kaitlyn, 10, says, "Lots of paper towels are thrown away, so I use a reusable cloth towel to dry my hands instead."

"I always recycle(重复利用)" says Natalie, 13. "You can call me a recycler! I always look at the bottom of things. I want to see whether they have the little sign that tells you it can be recycled. So I almost recycle everything!"

Now it's your turn to think about how you can "go green". Make important choices and take actions to improve the environment right around you and the health of the whole world.
