八年级英语单选题中等难度题查看答案及解析

Every year several thousand people are killed(杀害) on the roads in Great Britain. Every year between one and two hundred thousand people are hurt. These people are killed or hurt in road accidents.

There are rules to make the roads safe, but people do not always obey the rules(遵守规则). They are careless. If everybody obeys the rules, the roads will be much safer. How can we make the roads safer?

Remember this rule. In Great Britain traffic keeps to the left. Cars, buses and bikes must all keep to the left side of the road. In most other countries traffic keeps to the right.

Before crossing the road, stop and look both sides. Look right and left. Then, if you are sure that the road is clear, it is safe to cross the road. If you see small children or old people, help them to cross the road. We must teach small children to cross the road safely. We must always set them a good example. Small children must not play in the street.

1.If we want to make the roads safer, ______.

A. everybody must be careful and obey the traffic rules

B. traffic should keep to the right

C. don’t cross the roads too often

D. roads must be clear

Every year more people recognize that it is wrong to kill wildlife for “sport”. Progress in this direction is slow because shooting is not a sport for watching, and only those few who take part realize the cruelty and destruction.

The number of gunners, however, grows rapidly. Children too young to develop proper judgments through independent thought are led a long way away by their gunning parents. They are subjected to advertisements of gun producers who describe shooting as good for their health and gun-carrying as a way of putting redder blood in the veins. They are persuaded by gunner magazines with stories honoring the chase and the kill. In school, they view motion pictures which are supposedly meant to teach them how to deal with arms safely but which are actually designed to stimulate（刺激）a desire to own a gun.

Wildlife is disappearing because of shooting and because of the loss of wild land habitat. Habitat loss will continue with our increasing population, but can we slow the loss of wildlife caused by shooting? They seem to forgive shooting for sport because they know little or nothing about it. The only answer, then, is to bring the truth about sport shooting to the great majority of people.

Now, it is time to realize that animals have the same night to life as we do and that there is nothing fair or right about a person with a gun shooting the harmless and beautiful creatures. The gunner like to describe what they do as character building, but we know that to wound an animal and watch it go through the agony of dying can make nobody happy. If, as they would have you believe, gun-carrying and killing improve human character, then perhaps we should encourage war.

1.According to the text, most people do not seem to be against hunting because _______.

A.they have little knowledge of it B.it helps to build human character

C.it is too costly to stop killing wildlife D.they want to keep wildlife under control

2.The underlined word “agony” in the last paragraph probably means _______.

A.form B.condition C.pain D.sadness

3.According to the text, the films children watch at school actually _______.

A.teach them how to deal with guns safely B.praise hunting as character-building

C.describe hunting as an exercise D.encourage them to have guns of their own

4.It can be inferred from the text that the author seems to _______.

A.blame the majority of people B.worry about the existence of wildlife

C.be in favor of war D.be in support of character-building

There are so many traffic accidents now. Many people are killed or hurt every day on roads. It’s becoming a more and more serious problem. Why?

Sometimes drivers drive too fast or don’t drive carefully enough. They talk or answer the cellphone during the driving. Some drivers drive against the red lights.
