There are many useful inventions in the world. Do you want to have an umbrella that makes your hands free? Alan Kaufman has thought up the “Nubrella”, which means “new”+ “umbrella”. It is the first truly hands-free umbrella in the world.

One cool feature of the Nubrella is that you don’t hold it like a usual umbrella, you can wear it. The shoulder straps(肩带) of the Nubrella allow people to be hands-free, so when walking in the rain with the Nubrella, you are able to use your cell phone or drink a hot cup of coffee. Also, the Nubrella is safer than traditional ones and will never be inverted(颠倒) in the wind.

The idea for the invention began on one rainy day. Mr. Kaufman was standing in his shop amd began to look at people’s umbrellas. He found that they had to try very hard to keep their umbrellas in the right place. At that moment an idea came into his mind. He ran to his desk and drew pictures.

There are many things we need to know that we do not learn at school. For example, if we want to use our money wisely, we need to shop carefully.

We have to realize that the choices we make can affect(影响) the rest of our lives. Just as importantly, our choices can also affect other people.

八年级英语单选题困难题查看答案及解析

There are many colors in nature. But do you know if a color has weight? I think you’ll say “no”. But I am afraid you are wrong. If you don’t believe， you may do a small experiment(实验).

First， put two objects with the same weight into two boxes. Then cover the boxes. Third， wrap(包裹) one box with a red piece of paper， the other with a white piece of paper. OK. Now hold the boxes with your hand one by one. It is certain that you will think the red one is a little heavier.

Why do you think so? A scientist found that different colors have different weight in a man’s mind. So he did many tests and at last he got the result. That is to say， every color has its own weight in our mind and their order is the same. The heaviest color is red， then blue， green， orange， yellow and white.

The scientist told us that colors also have smell. Can you smell the color? Of course not. Then why did the scientist say so? That is because every color stands for(代表) a kind of light with a certain wavelength(波长). It reaches our brain through sense organs.

According to this discovery， scientists say that people accept the colors they like， and refuse the colors they hate. So your body and mind will be healthy by using the colors you like. Or you’ll be nervous or even get ill. For example， if you stay in a room with red windows， wallpapers and furniture(家具) for two hours， you’ll feel you have been there for four hours. But if the room is blue， you’ll feel you have been there for only an hour. Another example， if a person walks out of a red room and into a blue room， his temperature will fall. That means our body temperature will change with different colors.

1.From the experiment， we know that .

A. the two boxes have the same weight

B. colors can change the weight of an object

C. the red paper is heavier than the white paper

D. colors have different weights in people’s mind

2.From the fourth paragraph， we can infer(推断)____________.

A. the smell of colors is changeable(可变的)

B. people can sense the light from colors

C. people can smell the colors through the nose

D. ll the colors have the same smell for the blind

3.Which of the following is true?____.

A. White color is heavier than red color

B. People may get ill if they refuse the colors they don't like

C. People can stay longer in red rooms than in blue rooms

D. People’s body temperature will change with different colors

4.The passage is probably____.

A. a short novel　　 B. a news report

C. a science report D. an advertisement

There are many different kinds of disasters(灾难) around the world. As an adult, you know what to do during a disaster, but what about the children? Some adults think it would probably never happen to them, so they don’t teach their children what to do. Before it’s too late, here are ways to help you prepare your child for a disaster:

Educate: It is always good to let your child know about possible disasters. This doesn’t mean children have to live in fear. When teaching them about disasters, keep the conversation positive（积极的）by telling them there is a solution to the disaster. Keep the conversations short, allow for questions and answer honestly.

Prepare: Always be prepared. That is the best advice for children. For example, when preparing for bad weather, get the tools you need, like candles, radios, food, water and medicine. Teach your child what is needed in certain disasters so that they know what is available for them, if ever needed.

Plan: You should always have a plan for you and your child for any dangerous situation. Write out a simple list that they can read. The plan could start with “listen to an adult’s advice or call 119”.

Practice: Once you have got the correct safety tools and worked out the right plan, practice every few months. Practicing what to do during a disaster with your child will help them if the time comes.

Disasters can’t be avoided but they can be lessened（减轻）once you are prepared and ready for one.

1.What is the correct thing to do for adults?

A. Have positive conversations with children.

B. Try not to talk about disasters with children.

C. Make the children scared of disasters.

D. Ask children lots of questions.

2.What’s the most important thing for children?

A. Always ask adults for help.

B. Always be prepared for a disaster.

C. Always listen to an adult’s advice.

D. Always remember where the tools are.

3.What is NOT suggested doing?

A. Remembering what is needed in certain disasters.

B. Getting the children to know the plan well.

C. Helping people in disaster areas.

D. Getting radios for bad weather.

4.The passage mainly tells us____________.
