适合八年级的英语阅读短文【汇集20篇】

As the development of the world, there is more and more entertainment for people to kill time. Reading used to be an important amusement. But now there are less and less people fond of reading. But there are still a large number of people stand on the side of reading. For me, I think reading is very important. The reasons are as following.

First of all, reading can broaden our vision. The main way we learn the things happen long time ago is according to the book. People will try their best to write the things in their stage in their way. When we read books, we have the opportunity to learn everything. The content in the books contains the knowledge all over the world and every aspect. We can read the knowledge about biography, science, technology, culture, economic and so on from the book. It is hard not to broaden vision from reading.

Secondly, reading can cultivate our taste. I am sure that reading some elegant sentence or the beautiful things described in the book will make us feel relax and comfortable. And we all know that the more knowledge a person has, the better-behaved he will be. I think this is the charming of reading. If there are more people like reading, the world will become more civilized.

The importance mentioned above just a part of reading. It has so many advantages that I can’t list all in a short time. It is irreplaceable in human beings’ life.

随着世界的发展，越来越多娱乐供人们消磨时光。阅读在过去常常就是一种重要的娱乐。但现在却越来越少人喜欢阅读了。但仍然还有很多人是喜欢看书的。对我来说，我认为阅读是很重要的。理由如下。

首先，阅读可以开阔我们的视野。我们了解很久以前发生的事情的主要方式是通过阅读。人们用他们自己的方式尽自己最大的努力写关于他们那个年代的事情。我们看书的时候，我们才有机会了解到一切。书中的内容包含知识的方方面面。通过书籍我们可以了解到关于传记，科学，技术，文化，经济等方面的知识。从阅读中，我们的视野很难不被拓宽。

其次，阅读可以陶冶我们的情操。我相信阅读一些优美的句子或者书中描述的美丽东西会使我们感到放松和舒适。我们都知道一个人拥有的知识越多，那个人就会表现得越好。我觉得这就是阅读的魅力。如果有更多的人喜欢阅读，这个世界会变得更加文明。

上面所提到的重要性只是其中一部分。阅读有很多的优点，在短时间内我都不能一一列举我不能列举。它在人类的生活中是不可替代的。

A group of penguins at a zoo in Japan take a walk to lose weight. Every day, 15 king penguins there walk 500 meters twice. "Just like human, penguins dont exercise much during winter. They become fat easily," says a zookeeper.

在日本的一个动物园里一群企鹅在散步减肥。哪里的15只金企鹅媒体散步两次，每次500米。 动物园工作人员说：“和人类一样，企鹅冬天不怎么运动，容易发胖。”

There are celebrities in the world since the ancient times have introduced the benefits of reading, some scholars also once said, reading a good book is like a conversation with noble people.

培根说：“读书足以怡静、足以博采、足以长才。”说明阅读是增加知识的不二法门。

由古至今，世界上有很名人都曾介绍阅读的好处，也有学者曾说过读一本好书，犹如同高尚的人谈话。

阅读，可以令你增广见闻，每天阅读一篇文章已令你的学问增加不少。阅读不但令你增广见闻，还可以增加课外知识。课本里的知识是不足够的，要靠自已去阅读课外书才行，因此读书足以博采。

阅读更可以帮助你解闷，当你十分纳闷时，你可以读读书、看看文章，就可以助你陶养性情……

除此之外，你还可以选择不同的书籍来阅读，例如：惊险刺激的侦探小说、刻骨铭心的爱情小说、有关历史的历史书……阅读科幻小说，可以幻想自已是主角，再回想书内的情景，已经回味不已。阅读一些有关旅游的书籍，犹如到世界各地游览……

阅读不但可以怡到静、博采、，而且是增加知识的不二法门，所以大家应该每天抽点时间阅读。

Mrs. Li has left a very good first impression on us. She is a beautiful young lady, enthusiastic and energetic. Now we know that she is a really wonderful teacher. Not only does she explain everything clearly but also she is very patient with us. Besides, her class

is well organized and in class she always encourages us and avoids making us feel embarrassed even when we make mistakes, so every student is very active in the class discussing.

So far, Mrs. Li has been teaching us for only two weeks, but she has already been popular with all of the students in our class! With Mrs. Lis help, we have learnt a lot of new words, phrases and sentence patterns. I am sure that we are going to make great progress in English with Mrs Li teaching us.

In today＇s society, more and more adults return to the university, sit in the classroom, open the textbook again in order to further their education.What they study involves a lot of subjectsnot only English and computer used in all trades as tools,but also more professional ones such as MBA courses. Different from thecollegestudentswho may know little aboutwhat they＇ll major in the college before they are engaged in it, the adults make their choices for some simple and definite reasons,which can be roughly classified into three groups, the requirement of the job market, the desire for higher salary and the need for entertainment and relaxation.

In the era characterized of rapid development of technology,it is not so easy to find or to secure a job for the intense competition. As a result, adults feel what they studied in school is far from enough to deal with the work in hand. Thus, "to charge the battery" is listed into schedule by more and more people. For example, Mr. Wang, an accountant in a big company, suddenly realized it was too hard for him to understand technical terms coming from his young colleagues. And worst of all, they ap

peared in the program of their new business. So, firmly, he entered for a weekend course on accountancy for a further degree.

But in some cases, people prefer reeducation just for money,which partly results from the professional job title system in China. Although virtually unrelated to people＇s own jobs, a few certificates are fervently pursued by some middle aged men and women just because they are the criteria for a higher title, which means some one hundred Yuan or so will be added to their salary. So it＇s the eagerness to grasp money rather than to study render them to return to the class.

It is true that severe pressure of making a living stirs some people to pursue further education.However,this is not the case as far as another group of people are concerned. These people, with domestic and occupational stability, feel a lack of interest in their life. So, they turn to some courses such as music and arts and literature, which may be their childhood dream. Education of this type can relax their nerves, make them more graceful and their life more colorful.

Mainly for the three reasons mentioned above, an increasingly large number of adults in modern society came back to classroom after they stepped out of the campus.Whatever reasons lead to their reeducation, our society benefits a lot from the endeavor of these adults.To name just a few, the workers＇ quality improves, and the income of education industry increascs... And more people are continuing to join the team of adult learners.By the way,if youpay a little attention to your parents, you＇ll probably find a brand new College English Course which you have just finished is on his or her desk now.

The ways to keep healthy Everyone wants to live long, however, that just

depends on your bodys health. Do you know how to keep healthy? Id like to

offer you two ways: 1) Proper Dinners: Generally speaking, one should eat 3

times every day. But some students who get up late will ignore the breakfast,

which will do a very bad effect on their healty.

Anyway, some girls who would

prefer to be thin will avoid eating anything or only little during the meal

time. Both of the two ways are bad habits of dining. We shouldnt feel hungry or

full after dinners. Students are usually very busy with their homework, so

they cannot take time to do exercises or too lazy to do them. This is another

killer to health. We should at least take time to have P.E lessons or do morning

exercises everyday to keep health. All in all, Being in fitness is our goal,

its also the basic of all contributions and success.

WHERE THERE IS A WILL, THERE IS A WAY

The secret of success (The key to success) is not so much money as a strong will. A great man is one who has a strong will and an indomitable spirit. In other words, if a man does not have a strong will to win (get) the final victory, he will never succeed in his life. He is no more than a failure.

It is quite obvious that there is no difficult thing (nothing difficult) in the world. if you make up your mind to do it, you will certainly accomplish your end. That stands to reason.

people often say that gold and silver are the most valuable things in the world. but i dont think so. in my opinion, to read books is more valuable than anything else.the old saying“to open a book is always helpful”clearly shows us how good it is to read a book.

books are our friends. they introduce us different kinds of knowledge.they lead us down the road to success.books are our teachers. they teach us truth, science, literature, and philosophy of life, besides they increase our knowledge, enlarge our experience, strengthen our character and do many other things which we can not do without them.we have to learn as long as we live. but our life is limited, and the knowledge is boundless. there are many things which are very necessary to learn and there are also many which should be avoided. books tell us what is good and what is evil. and only books can tell the good from the bad.

therefore to read more books is the best policy for our young students。

人们常说金子和银子是世界上最有价值的东西。但我不这么认为。在我看来,读书比任何其他事情更有价值。俗话说“打开一本书总是有益”清楚地显示了我们是多么好的阅读一本书。

书是我们的朋友。他们介绍我们各种各样的知识。他们引导我们成功之路。书是我们的老师。他们教我们真理、科学、文学和生活的哲学,除了它们增加我们的知识,扩大我们的经验,加强我们的性格,做许多其他的事情,我们离不开他们。我们必须学习,只要我们生活。但是我们的生命是有限的,知识是无限的。有许多事情是非常必要的学习和应该避免的也有很多。书告诉我们什么是善,什么是恶。只有书能告诉坏的好。

因此,读更多的书对我们的青年学生是最好的政策。

As long as everyone sacrificed a little love, the world will become a better future. We should love each other, the world will become better.

只要人人都献出一点爱，世界将变成美好的未来。我们应该相互关爱，这个世界才会变的美好。

在我身边处处有人互相关爱，其中一位陌生人帮助我的是记忆深刻。

九岁那年的暑假，我去姑姑家带两个六岁以下的小表弟，才发生了那件事。

记得有一天，我和几位小伙伴、两个表弟在后花园的小巷奔跑时，看见了一把破烂不堪的雨伞。我们几个好奇地望望雨伞，一下玩性大发，一个接一个跳到伞的另一边去。我也正在向前跑，突然，一块大石头绊住了我，我一个踉跄，跌了下去，一根又尖又长的东西划伤了膝盖，我爬起来一看，惊呼;‘‘天啊!’’一条又深又粗的伤口正在不停地流血。我急了，疼痛难忍的我嚎啕大哭，声音穿过了好几条巷子。小伙伴和表弟问;‘‘你怎么样了?我们去找人来救你。’’我点了点头。姑姑出去忙了，不能求助于她。正在小伙伴和表弟满世界找人的时候，邻居阿姨闻声出来，一看见我正在淌血的膝盖，马上翻出医药箱，提着跑了过来。她从医药箱里翻出了一瓶碘酒，用棉花蘸一下，涂抹在我的伤口上。我咬咬牙，望了一下阿姨，她头上大汗满淋，嘴里还喃喃地说;‘‘你是怎么回事?伤成这样是很严重的……’’我感动了，轻轻地说;‘‘谢谢您，阿姨!’’她正在为我的伤口治疗，无心去听我的话。不一会儿，伤口完全包扎好了。我正要感谢阿姨时，她却走远了，边走边说;‘‘你下次小心点儿，希望别留下疤痕呀!’’我的眼泪夺眶而出，别人七嘴八舌地说些什么，我也听不进去了。

后来，我的膝盖上还是留了伤疤，我永远都不会忘记那位外表冷酷，内心热情的品德高尚的邻居阿姨。

伸出我们的友爱之手，让我们互相关爱。

readingcan make us roam in the ocean of knowledge, I am very fond of reading.

看书可以让我们遨游在知识的海洋里，我就十分喜欢看书。

每一次放学时，我就边走边想：“昨天读到了什么地方?那本书放在了那里?恩....左边...不对，右边?对!右边第二排第七个。”一想到可以看书了，我就特别高兴，想马上就到家。一回到家里我就如饥似渴地看书，常常回因为太专著而忘了做作业，直到天色渐渐暗了下去，我才恋恋不舍地放下书，打开作业本。每当做车时，我也常常因为看书而一直坐到终点站。我看过的书有许多《上下五千年》《一千零一夜》《少年大世界》....每一天我都畅游在书的海洋里，去看食人鱼、去远古看野人、去外星看建筑.....现在，我的肚子里的墨水也有几桶了!

看书可以让人增长知识，我以后还要读更多的书!

The life in the future

What do you think the life in the future will be like?

Every family will have computers and robots. Computers will help us know a

lot all over the world. Robots will help us do most of the housework. They can

help us do some cleaning， cooking or washing. We can do some shopping and see a

doctor without going out. Students can study at home on computers. People will

live to be 200 years old because of the better medical care.

Our life will be better and better. For this， we should study hard. I

believe we’ll be able to do this.

Children in costumes race from house to house asking for treats. A carved pumpkin, called a jack-o’-lantern, grins from a porch as the children pass. According to legend, jack-o’-lanterns protect people in their homes from ghostly spirits.

It’s all part of the fun on Halloween! The roots of Halloween stretch back thousands of years and borrow customs from several parts of the world.

Halloween is a holiday celebrated on October 31. By tradition, Halloween begins after sunset. Long ago, people believed that witches gathered together and ghosts roamed the world on Halloween. Today, most people no longer believe in ghosts and witches. But these supernatural beings are still a part of Halloween.

The colors black and orange are also a part of Halloween. Black is a symbol for night and orange is the color of pumpkins. A jack-o’-lantern is a hollowed-out pumpkin with a face carved on one side. Candles are usually placed inside, giving the face a spooky glow.

Dressing in masks and costumes is a popular Halloween activity. Costumes can be traditional and scary, such as a witch’s pointy hat and black gown. Costumes may also have a modern flavor. Many children dress up as movie characters or a favorite superhero.

But Halloween is not just for children. Many adults enjoy showing off their costumes at Halloween parties!

Once in costume, children go from house to house saying “Trick or treat!” In the past, children might play a “trick” on people who did not give treats. They might pelt houses with eggs or old tomatoes, or play other pranks. Today, children’s cries of “Trick or treat!” are usually rewarded with candy.

One of the oldest Halloween traditions comes from the ancient Celts, who lived in western and central Europe long ago. The Celts celebrated a holiday

y called Sa amhain on October 31. After sunset that day, people believed that spirits of the dead would rise and walk the earth. The Celts made offerings of food and drink to keep the spirits away.

Beginning about 2,000 years ago, the Roman Empire conquered many Celtic peoples. But Celtic traditions, including Samhain, remained strong in areas such as Ireland and Scotland, even after the Roman conquest.

The Roman Catholic Church tried to replace Samhain in 835 with All Saints’ Day, a day to honor saints of the Church. The eve of All Saints’ Day is October 31. It is called Allhallows or Hallowmas by the Church.

Halloween first came to America with early settlers from Celtic areas in Europe, such as Ireland and Scotland. But other American settlers with strict religious beliefs, including the Puritans from England, rejected Halloween. The arrival of many Irish immigrants during the 1800s helped spread Halloween’s popularity.

But by the late 1800s, fewer people believed in ancient superstitions of ghosts and witches. Halloween became more a holiday for children to receive treats and dress in costume.

儿童服装竞赛挨家挨户要求对待。,南瓜,称为的南瓜灯笑容从玄关,孩子们通过。根据传说,南瓜灯保护人们从可怕的精神家园。

这是所有的一部分乐趣在万圣节!万圣节的根源可以追溯到数千年,借世界海关从几个地方。

万圣节是一个10月31日庆祝的节日。按照传统,万圣节在日落之后开始。很久以前,人们相信女巫聚集和万圣节鬼在世界。今天,大多数人不再相信幽灵和巫婆。但这些超自然仍然是一个万圣节的一部分。

颜色黑色和橙色也是万圣节的一部分。黑色象征着晚上和橙色是南瓜的颜色。鬼火是一个中空的南瓜脸雕刻的一侧。蜡烛通常放在,面临着一个令人毛骨悚然的发光。

穿着面具和服装是一个流行的万圣节活动。服装是传统和可怕的,比如一个女巫的尖尖的帽子和黑色的礼服。服装也有现代气息。许多孩子装扮成电影人物或最喜欢的超级英雄。

但是万圣节不仅仅是为了孩子。许多成年人喜欢炫耀他们的服装在万圣节派对!

最古老的万圣节传统之一来自于古老的凯尔特人,很久以前住在欧洲西部和中部。凯尔特人庆祝一个节日

y称为Sa amhain 10月31日。日落之后那一天,人们相信死者的灵魂会上升,地球走。凯尔特人的食品和饮料保持精神献祭。

大约在2000年前开始,罗马帝国征服了许多凯尔特民族。但凯尔特传统,包括夏末节,保持强劲的地区如爱尔兰和苏格兰,即使在罗马征服。

In the English Reading Week, one of my classmates recommended a quote to us, which goes like this: “Your future depends on many things, but mostly on you.”

在英语阅读周，我的一个同学推荐了一个报价给我们，这是这样的：“你的未来取决于许多事情，但主要是在你。”

As far as I’m concerned, I completely agree with the view. Of course, our future depends on many things such as our living environment, opportunities, luck, others’ help and etc. But it is we ourselves that determine our future. Our positive attitude, our determination, our confidence and our sense of discipline are the keys to our future.

就我而言，我完全同意这一观点。当然，我们的未来取决于我们的生活环境、机会、运气、别人的帮助等，但我们自己决定了我们的未来。我们积极的态度、决心、信心和纪律是我们未来的关键。

Madame Curie was a good example to us. In her times, women were not admitted to university in her motherland, Poland, so she was forced to leave her homeland and studied in France. She often said: we should believe every one of us can do something and above all we should believe in ourselves. It was her confidence that made her discover radium and later win the Nobel Prize. So I firmly hold the belief that our future is in our hands.

居里夫人是我们的好榜样。在她的时代，妇女在她的祖国，波兰不承认，所以她被迫离开她的祖国，在法国学习。她常说：“我们应该相信我们每个人都能做些什么，首先我们应该相信自己。是她的信心，使她发现镭，后来赢得了诺贝尔奖。所以我坚信我们的未来是在我们手中。
