适合八年级的英语阅读短文（经典20篇）

There were three of them. There were four of us, and April lay on the campsite and on the river, a mixture of dawn at a damp extreme and the sun in the leaves at cajole. This was Deer Lodge on the Pine River in Ossipee, New Hampshire, though the lodge was naught but a foundation remnant in the earth. Brother Bentleys father, Oren, had found this place sometime after the First World War, a foreign affair that had seriously done him no good but he found solitude abounding here. Now we were here, post World War II, post Korean War, Vietnam War on the brink. So much learned, so much yet to learn.

Peace then was everywhere about us, in the riot of young leaves, in the spree of bird confusion and chatter, in the struggle of pre-dawn animals for the start of a new day, a Cooper Hawk that had smashed down through trees for a squealing rabbit, yap of a fox at a youngster, a skunk at rooting.

We had pitched camp in the near darkness, Ed LeBlanc, Brother Bentley, Walter Ruszkowski, myself. A dozen or more years we had been here, and seen no one. Now, into our campsite deep in the forest, so deep that at times we had to rebuild sections of narrow road (more a loggers path) flushed out by earlier rains, deep enough where we thought wed again have no traffic, came a growling engine, an old solid body van, a Chevy, the kind I had driven for Frankie Pike and the Lobster Pound in Lynn delivering lobsters throughout the Merrimack Valley. It had pre-WW II high fenders, a faded black paint on a body youd swear had been hammered out of corrugated steel, and an engine that made sounds too angry and too early for the start of day. Two elderly men, we supposed in their seventies, sat the front seat; felt hats at the slouch and decorated with an assortment of tied flies like a miniature bandoleer of ammunition on the band. They could have been conscripts for Emilano Zappata, so loaded their hats and their vests as they climbed out of the truck.

"Mornin, been yet?" one of them said as he pulled his boots up from the folds at his knees, the tops of them as wide as a big mouth bass coming up from the bottom for a frog sitting on a lily pad. His hands were large, the fingers long and I could picture them in a shop barn working a primal plane across the face of a maple board. Custom-made, old elegance, those hands said.

"Barely had coffee," Ed LeBlanc said, the most vocal of the four of us, quickest at friendship, at shaking hands. "Weve got a whole pot almost. Have what you want." The pot was pointed out sitting on a hunk of grill across the stones of our fire, flames licking lightly at its sides. The pot appeared as if it had been at war, a number of dents scarred it, the handle had evidently been replaced, and if not adjusted against a small rock it would have fallen over for sure. Once, a half-hour on the road heading north, noting it missing, wed gone back to get it. When we fished the Pine River, coffee was the glue, the morning glue, the late evening glue, even though wed often unearth our beer from a natural cooler in early evening. Coffee, camp coffee, has a ritual. It is thick, it is dark, it is potboiled over a squaw-pine fire, it is strong, it is enough to wake the demon in you, stoke last evenings cheese and pepperoni. First man up makes the fire, second man the coffee; but into that pot has to go fresh eggshells to hold the grounds down, give coffee a taste of history, a sense of place. That means at least one egg be cracked open for its shells, usually in the shadows and glimmers of false dawn. I suspect thats where "scrambled eggs" originated, from some camp like ours, settlers rushing west, lumberjacks hungry, hoboes lobbying for breakfast. So, camp coffee has made its way into poems, gatherings, memories, a time and thing not letting go, not being manhandled, not being cast aside.

英语作文阅读：AnEmptyBox

Once upon a time, a man punished his 5-year-old daughter for using up the familys only roll of expensive gold wrapping paper. Money was tight, and he became even more upset when on Christmas Eve, he saw that the child had pasted the gold paper so as to decorate a shoebox to put under the Christmas tree.

Nevertheless, the next morning the little girl, filled with excitement, brought the gift box to her father and said, "This is for you, Daddy!"

As he opened the box, the father was embarrassed by his earlier overreaction.

But when he opened it, he found it was empty and again his anger flared. "Dont you know, young lady, " he said harshly, "when you give someone a present theres supposed to be something inside the package!"

The little girl looked up at him with tears rolling from her eyes and said: "Daddy, its not empty. I blew kisses into it until it was all full."

The father was crushed. He fell on his knees and put his arms around his precious little girl. He begged her to forgive him for his unnecessary anger.

An accident took the life of the child only a short time later. It is told that the father kept that little gold box by his bed for all the years of his life. Whenever he was discouraged or faced difficult problems he would open the box, take out an imaginary kiss, and remember the love of this beautiful child who had put it there.

In a very real sense, each of us as human beings have been given an invisible golden box filled with unconditional love and kisses from our children, family, friends and God.

There is no more precious possession anyone could hold.

英语作文阅读：HappinessEquateswithFun

I live in Hollywood. You may think people in such a glamorous, fun-filled place are happier than others. If so, you have some mistaken ideas about the nature of happiness.

Many intelligent people still equate happiness with fun. The truth is that fun and happiness have little or nothing in common. Fun is what we experience during an act. Happiness is what we experience after an act. It is a deeper, more abiding emotion.

Going to an amusement park or ball game, watching a movie or television, are fun activities that help us relax, temporarily forget our problems and maybe even laugh. But they do not bring happiness, because their positive effects end when the fun ends.

I have often thought that if Hollywood stars have a role to play, it is to teach us that happiness has nothing to do with fun. These rich, beautiful inpiduals have constant access to glamorous parties, fancy cars, expensive homes, everything that spells "happiness".

But in memoir after memoir, celebrities reveal the unhappiness hidden beneath all their fun: depression, alcoholism, drug addiction, broken marriages, troubled children, profound loneliness.

The way people cling to the belief that a fun-filled, pain-free life equates happiness actually diminishes their chances of ever attaining real happiness. If fun and pleasure are equated with happiness, then pain must be equated with unhappiness. But, in fact, the opposite is true: More times than not, things that lead to happiness involve some pain.

As a result, many people avoid the very endeavors that are the source of true happiness. They fear the pain inevitably brought by such things as marriage, raising children, professional achievement, religious commitment, civic or charitable work, and self-improvement.

英语作文阅读：TodayisaGift

Two men, both seriously ill, occupied the same hospital room. One man was allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour each afternoon to help drain the fluid from his lungs. His bed was next to the room‘s only window. The other man had to spend all his time flat on his back. The men talked for hours on end.

They spoke of their wives and families, their homes, their jobs, their involvement in the military service, where they had been on vacation. And every afternoon when the man in the bed by the window could sit up, he would pass the time by describing to his roommate all the things he could see outside the window. The man in the other bed began to live for those one-hour periods where his world would be broadened and enlivened by all the activity and color of the world outside.

The window overlooked a park with a lovely lake. Ducks and swans played on the water while children sailed their model boats. Young lovers walked arm in arm amidst flowers of every color of the rainbow. Grand old trees graced the landscape, and a fine view of the city skyline could be seen in the distance. As the man by the window described all this in exquisite detail, the man on the other side of the room would close his eyes and imagine the picturesque scene.

One warm afternoon the man by the window described a parade passing by. Although the other man couldn‘t hear the band - he could see it in his mind‘s eye as the gentleman by the window portrayed it with descriptive words.

Days and weeks passed. One morning, the day nurse arrived to bring water for their baths only to find the lifeless body of the man by the window, who had died peacefully in his sleep. She was saddened and called the hospital attendants to take the body away.

As soon as it seemed appropriate, the other man asked if he could be moved next to the window. The nurse was happy to make the switch, and after making sure he was comfortable, she left him alone. Slowly and painfully, he propped himself up on one elbow to take his first look at the world outside. Finally, he would have the joy of seeing it for himself. He strained to slowly turn to look out the window beside the bed. It faced a blank wall.

The man asked the nurse what could have compelled his deceased roommate who had described such wonderful things outside this window. The nurse responded that the man was blind and could not even see the wall. She said, "Perhaps he just wanted to encourage you."

英语作文阅读：IsPackingImportanttoYou

A young man was getting ready to graduate from college. For many months he had admired a beautiful sports car in a dealers showroom, and knowing his father could well afford it, he told him that was all he wanted.

As Graduation Day approached, the young man awaited signs that his father had purchased the car. Finally, on the morning of his graduation, his father called him into his private study. His father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son, and told him how much he loved him. He handed his son a beautiful wrapped gift box. Curious, but somewhat disappointed, the young man opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible, with the young mans name embossed in gold.

Angrily, he raised his voice to his father and said, "With all your money you give me a Bible?" He then stormed out of the house, leaving the Bible.

Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business. He had a beautiful home and a wonderful family, but realizing his father was very old, he thought perhaps he should go to see him. He had not seen him since that graduation day. Before he could make the arrangements, he received a telegram telling him his father had passed away, and willed all of his possessions to his son. He needed to come home immediately and take care of things.

When he arrived at his fathers house, sudden sadness and regret filled his heart. He began to search through his fathers important papers and saw the still new Bible, just as he had left it years ago.

With tears, he opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. As he was reading, a car key dropped from the back of the Bible. It had a tag with the dealers name, the same dealer who had the sports car he had desired. On the tag was the date of his graduation, and the words… "PAID IN FULL".

How many times do we miss blessings because they are not packaged as we expected? I trust you enjoyed this. Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; but remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for. Sometimes we dont realize the good fortune we have or we could have because we expect "the packaging" to be different. What may appear as bad fortune may in fact be the door that is just waiting to be opened.

英语作文阅读：TheBabyEagle

Once upon a time there was a baby eagle living in a nest perched on a cliff overlooking a beautiful valley with waterfalls and streams, trees and lots of little animals, scurrying about enjoying their lives.

The baby eagle liked the nest. It was the only world he had ever known. It was warm and comfortable, had a great view, and even better, he had all the food and love and attention that a great mother eagle could provide. Many times each day the mother would swoop down from the sky and land in the nest and feed the baby eagle delicious morsels of food. She was like a god to him, he had no idea where she came from or how she worked her magic.

The baby eagle was hungry all the time, but the mother eagle would always come just in time with the food and love and attention he craved. The baby eagle grew strong. His vision grew very sharp. He felt good all the time.

Until one day, the mother stopped coming to the nest.

The baby eagle was hungry. "Im sure to die," said the baby eagle, all the time.

"Very soon, death is coming," he cried, with tears streaming down his face. Over and over. But there was no one there to hear him.

Then one day the mother eagle appeared at the top of the mountain cliff, with a big bowl of delicious food and she looked down at her baby. The baby looked up at the mother and cried "Why did you abandon me? Im going to die any minute. How could you do this to me?"

The mother said, "Here is some very tasty and nourishing food, all you have to do is come get it."

"Come get it!" said the baby, with much anger. "How?"

The mother flew away.

The baby cried and cried and cried.

A few days later, "Im going to end it all," he said. "I give up. It is time for me to die."

He didnt know his mother was nearby. She swooped down to the nest with his last meal.

"Eat this, its your last meal," she said.

The baby cried, but he ate and whined and whined about what a bad mother she was.

"Youre a terrible mother," he said. Then she pushed him out of the nest.

He fell.

Head first.

Picked up speed.

Faster and faster.

He screamed. "Im dying Im dying," he cried. He picked up more speed.

He looked up at his mother. "How could you do this to me?"

He looked down.

The ground rushed closer, faster and faster. He could visualize his own death so clearly, coming so soon, and cried and whined and complained. "This isnt fair!" he screamed.

Something strange happens.

The air caught behind his arms and they snapped away from his body, with a feeling unlike anything he had ever experienced. He looked down and saw the sky. He wasnt moving towards the ground anymore, his eyes were pointed up at the sun.

"Huh?" he said. "What is going on here!"

"Youre flying," his mother said.

"This is fun!" laughed the baby eagle, as he soared and ped and swooped.

"Yes it is!" said the mother.

书，是一个充满知识的海洋，是一个其乐无穷的缤纷世界。读书有很多好处，如：可以增长很多的知识;可以让一篇作文写得更生动更形象;还可以增长自身的修养……

我是一个小书虫。记得有一次，我放学回家，扔下书包就捧起一本书津津有味地看了起来，把做作业的事儿都给忘记了。妈妈回来，问我：“今天没作业吗?”我说：“有!”妈妈又问：“那你为什么不做?”我说：“我回来在看书，因为这本书太好看了，看着看着就着了迷，所以就把做作业的事儿给忘了!”妈妈说：“啊，你快点做，一会儿又要熬夜了!”我才依依不舍地放下书。

有时，我在看书的时候，忘了吃饭，忘了做作业。有时，我又会在吃饭的时候，上厕所的时候看书。当我在看一本名叫《培养孩子爱心的经典故事》的书时，懂得了做人要有爱心;当我在看一本名叫《培养孩子勇敢的经典故事》的书时，懂得了做人要勇敢;当我看了《森林报》的书时，还对大自然更加热爱了。

一本好书，就是一顿美味的大餐，让你细细地品尝;一本好书，又是你的良师益友，是帮助你开阔心胸的工具;一本好书，还是一个时光轴，带你来到一个充满快乐的世界……所以，我们要多读书，读好书，多增长一些知识。

环境对人类十分重要，可是有些人不爱护环境，也不知道环境对人类的重要性。

Environment is very important for human beings, but some people do not care for the environment, do not know the importance of the human environment.

你看，许多人都不爱护环境，它们随地扔垃圾，有些人认为：一个垃圾算什么?可是积少成多，小区里最好看的地方成了垃圾站。有些人为了建房子挖山砍树，美丽的小山变成了沙漠和房子。有些人没时间做饭，就在外面快餐店买了饭一边走一边吃，吃完饭后他们还把一次性饭盒，一次性筷子丢在地上。有些人为了展示自己家里很有钱就开着跑车在路面上到处跑。他们没有意识到既污染环境又浪费能源。有些工厂将一些污水、浓烟排入江河和天空。

But many a little makes a mickle, areas where the best places to see a garbage station. Some people in order to build a house digging trees, beautiful hill into the desert and the house. Some people have no time to cook, just outside the store to buy a snack food while walking after dinner, they also eat, disposable lunch boxes, disposable chopsticks on the floor. Some people in order to show that he has a rich family is driving a car to run around on the road. They do not realize that both environmental pollution and waste of resources.

For the sake of our environment, to our life, I hope people can throw rubbish into the dustbin, cut less than planting, try to go home for dinner. The waste gas and water into the underground, dont show his money, pay attention to energy saving and emission reduction.

她，有一头金黄的头发，还有两条小辫子，虽然已经三十几岁了，可却还是打扮得像小女孩一样，永远不会老。她，还有一双炯炯有神的眼睛，跟鹰眼一样(鹰的眼睛都是最亮的，什么都看到的)，她只要看到了有同学在讲话或是开小差，就用那双有神的眼睛盯那位同学一下，那同学马上就会意了，就专心听讲了，而且有一些同学在偷偷讲话、传纸条、偷看课外书啊，这之类的事她一眼就看出来了。

Today is thirty of the year, new years Eve. Every family is a family sitting together to eat a years dinner.

没吃一会儿门外就响起了“噌……碰”或者“啪啪啪……”的声响，我们一家人放下碗、筷，跑到门口看，这是哥哥说了一句话：不如我们也拿几个烟火出来放吧！我们所有人点头表示同意。我们将烟火放在门前，哥哥走到烟火旁用打火机点燃，便马上跑了回来。我听见“噌……”的一声就回过头来看，只见一朵花，无颜六色：红的象征着喜庆，蓝的象征着智慧、绿的象征着生机、黄的象征着温暖、紫的象征着浪漫……一会天女散花，一会枪林弹雨，七色的小球一颗颗落下，犹如一道彩虹。这是几乎所有的人家都开始放烟花了，一瞬间天空变成了烟花的海洋，各种色彩，各种样子，都在天空中绽开。快乐的寒假作文200字

“咱们个老百姓，真呀嘛真高兴。”我怀着愉快的心情，哼着小调来到学校，走进教室，只见我班一些同学手里紧握着书，口中念念有词，王俊呢，对着英语书悲愤地唱着：“我恨你，恨着你，就像老鼠爱大米，我真的想一口一口吃掉你……”这时，只见一同学说：“今天要英语考试！”“啊！”

我平生最怕的就是英语，今天竟然又将英语考试，“完了”，我想：“反正考不好，与其在那里依哇依哇乱叫，还不如玩我的。”

过了一会儿，重量级高手英语老师抱着试卷，一脸严肃走进教室，带来一股暗藏杀气的凉风，满场学生顿觉毛骨悚然，卷子很快发了下来，我一看卷子，它不认识我，我不认识它，唉，没办法，我只好硬着头皮一顿乱做。

过了几分钟，我做“完”了，抬头一看，我班大部分同学都做“完”了，大家像武林中人“成功似”地长长吁了一口气，好轻松呀！正当我们修心养性，得意洋洋的时候，老师说交卷了：“算了，死就死吧，反正我英语成绩历来不好，死猪不怕开水烫”。

第二天，老师带着一把“生死状”，杀气腾腾走进教室，说：“你们昨天考得真好啊！五个及格！”“哈！”我心想：“大家都没考好，我就不怕啦！”

老师讲了一番深刻的话语后，终于开始报分了，真是“不堪入耳”，50分，32分，43分，10分……我的心情也慢慢紧张起来，“万一我考个全班倒数第一，那就完了，“彭岭，37分。”我长长吁了一口气，幸好不是全班倒数第一，不过考这么差，班主任——英语老师不会把我活剥了吧？“李锋25分！”终于有人给我垫背了，压在我心上的石头将要放下的时候，说曹操曹操到，杨老师来整风了，只见杨老师气势汹汹，来者不善，我缩成一团，生怕老师把目光放在我身上，只见杨老师在台上讲啊讲啊讲了一大堆，只有最后一句“明天继续考”如雷贯耳。

苍天啊！饶了我吧！

Memory is important for everyone in all ages. How to improve it? It is a

complex question. I have several suggestions. Firstly, have enough rest. Enough

sleep can make sure brain works normally, because when people sleep, their brain

and other organs also can rest. Enough rest can provide enough energy. Secondly,

keep always thinking. Do not get used to the current situation. Keeping thinking

when meets things can exercise brain. Thirdly, eat some healthy food that is

good for memory, such as, radish, cabbage and spinach. I think these are helpful

to improve memory.

Gorky once said that books are the steps of human progress, book is also the source of my courage. Book is the sea, and I am a fish, swim freely in the sea; Book is the sky, and Im a bird, fly in the sky happily.

Im more like to read books, to see whether the book for a while before sleep every night.

From these things, I know reading is indispensable to everyone. I dont know how to express my love of reading. As long as a free, I drilled into the fairy tale world. And the Snow White and the seven dwarfs together; Cinderella and sometimes together; And sometimes, and Peter pan roam freely in the sky; And when dumbo waiting and looking forward to its mother, sometimes...

When free, I would walk into the composition and the house, to see their life and fun, think about how to enrich the life, the rich world. In a word, reading group bring you lots of fun, will enrich your life, your world.

许多人都喜欢读书，我也一样喜欢读书，书带给了我们人类许多乐趣，也让我们懂得了许多道理。高尔基说过，书是人类进步的台阶，书也是我勇气的源泉。书就是大海，而我是小鱼，在大海中自由自在地遨游;书就是天空，而我是小鸟，在天空中愉快地飞翔。

我从小就喜欢读书，那时候我不识字，只能看一些有图画的书，也常常让妈妈读给我听。上小学以后，我时常不是抱着一本童话故事书，就是拿着一本作文书。久而久之，我喜欢上了读书，不管是什么书，我都会认真地看。就这样，我从书中知睡道了许多知识，也从书中明白了许多道理，也积累了不少好词、好句。我的作文水平一下子提高了好多。我也更加喜欢读书了，每天晚上觉前都要看一会书。

从这些事情中，我知道了读书是每个人不可缺少的。我不知道该如何表达我对读书的热爱。只要一有空，我就钻到童话世界里去了。和白雪公主、七个小矮人在一起;有时又和灰姑娘在一起;又有的时候和小飞侠在天空中自由自在地遨游;还有时和小飞象在等待和盼望着它的妈妈，有时……

有空时，我又会走进作文屋里，去看一看他们的生活和趣事，想一想如何丰富生活、丰富世界。总之，读书会给你带来许多乐趣，会丰富你的生活，丰富你的世界。我喜欢读书，因为我从学到了很多的知识和道理，我想对每个人大声说：“我爱读书，书中自有黄金屋。”

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。

Suddenly a asked a question, what are the four great inventions in ancient China. Originally very lively classroom, instantly grew quiet. But I do remember I have seen a "Chinese history" is written with the four great inventions: papermaking. Gunpowder. A compass. Movable type printing. When I resounding answer, the teacher asked me how do you know that. I replied: I know from the book. The teacher finally said: study is very helpful.

书给给了我智慧和知识，也给了我力量和勇气。我从小就十分喜爱书籍和书结下了不解之缘。我把书当做不可缺少的营养品，看见书就像饥饿的人看到面包一样爱不释手。在我的房间里，放着一个大书柜，上面放的都是我喜爱的书。每逢我取的成绩时，父母亲问我要什么礼物，我都会脱口而出，“书，送我喜欢的书。”读书的时候我会沉浸其中。

读书能让我成为一个博学多才的人。有一次语文课上，老师在给我们将悠久的历史文化。冷不丁的问了一个问题，中国古代的四大发明是什么。原本十分热闹的教室，瞬间变得鸦雀无声。而我却清楚的记得我看过一本《中国历史》上记载着四大发明分别是：造纸术。火药。指南针。活字印刷。当我响亮的回答出后，老师问我你是怎么知道的。我回答道：我是从书中了解的。老师最后说：好好读书很有有益的。

读书不仅能增长知识，对我们的写作也很有帮助。读了几本优秀作文大全，写起作文以来也轻松了许多，作文水平也提高了。读好书还能让我树立正确的人生观，遇到困难不退缩，要有毅力去战胜困难，这是我从《钢铁是怎样炼成的》一书中受到的启发。

“书是知识的海洋”。书里五彩斑斓的世界吸引我们走近他，亲近他。
