Hi! My name is Mark. I live in a town in the west of Shanghai. Over the past twenty years, great changes have taken place here.

In the past, my hometown was only a small village. There were no tall buildings. But now more and more tall buildings appear and the roads get broader. My father used to work in a small post office. We contacted each other mainly by sending letters. Now we can get in touch by using telephones, mobile phone, the Internet and so on. The world becomes smaller and smaller.

We can find our life more comfortable. We live in big flats. We can enjoy milk, vegetables, fruit and meat for meals. We can also enjoy wonderful films, and listen to music with MP5. In the past, we couldn’t enjoy life like this.

On the other hand, pollution has become a serious problem in our daily life. In the past, there were not many factories. So the water was clean and the air was fresh. However, the water and the air aren’t clean any more, because too many factories have polluted them. The government has taken action to reduce the pollution. Now things have been better.

I am sure my hometown will be more and more beautiful.

I live in a new town with my family. There are lots of tall buildings in the town. The streets are busy and the traffic is heavy， but the pollution is not very serious .

In our town， more than half of the buildings have fifteen to thirty floors. Most of the people live in such tall buildings， but they don’t have to climb the stairs. They use lifts to go up and down.

Many restaurants， supermarkets， cinemas and theatres are in very tall buildings. They are big， bright and modern. So people enjoy eating， shopping， seeing films and watching plays in them.

The people in our town never put rubbish everywhere or put dirty water into the river， so you cannot see much pollution in our town. I hope you’ll come to visit our town if you like.

八年级英语单词拼写中等难度题查看答案及解析

Hi, my name is Wang Jun. Do you want to know about my staying in America? Well, to tell you the truth, it is really an eye-opening experience here.

In China, I had English classes five times a week since Grade Five. But I didn’t know textbook English could be so different from everyday English until I came to Hotchkiss School, Connecticut. When I first studied English, I was told to say “I’m fine.” when people say “How are you?” But in the USA, I found that people say “I’m good.” or “I’m tired.”

One day, someone greeted （问候） me with “What’s up?” It made me confused. I thought for a moment and then smiled because I didn’t know what to say.

Since then, I have learnt more and more differences between Chinese and American cultures. To my surprise, American girls spend a lot of time in the burning sun getting a tan (晒黑的肤色). In China, girls try every possible way to keep their skin white.

American students are hard-working like Chinese students. In China, schoolwork is almost everything, so we study hard and that’s it. But here, a “good” student not only gets good grades, but also does a lot for the public. That is to say, they get lots of knowledge at school and learn many life skills from social （社会的） work.

1.In China, Wang Jun had _______ English classes every week.

A．five              B．four              C．three             D．two

2.Wang Jun found that _______ when he came to Hotchkiss School in the USA.

A. it was really important to learn English well

B. English he learnt in China was helpful to him

C. American students were more hard-working than Chinese students

D. textbook English was different from everyday English

3.What does the underlined word “confused” mean in Chinese?

A．困惑的           B．滑稽的           C．紧张的           D．伤心的

4.American girls make Wang Jun feel surprised because _______.

A．they work hard at school                  B．they try to keep their skin white

C．they hope to get a tan                    D．they do lots of social work

5.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?

A．My wonderful travel in the USA            B．After-school activities in American schools

C．What American students learn at school      D．My study experience in the USA
