八年级英语试题
一、阅读六选五：本大题共5小题，共10分。
We all compare ourselves with others sometimes. （1） It’s OK to think paring is a common thing in our daily life, but it can bring different feelings.
If we use it wisely, it can help us find what to improve and make progress. （2） For example, if you see your deskmate doing homework more carefully, you can learn from him or her. However, if we only focus on others’ strengths and don’t notice our own progress, we may lose confidence.
So how can we compare in a positive way
● First, compare yourself with your past self. （3） This will make you feel good about your self-improvement.
● （4） Everyone has their own shining points, and yours are also valuable.
● Third, learn to say congratulations to others when they do well. （5）
Don’t let blind comparison affect your day. Just remember: the best “winning” is to do better than you did yesterday.
A．Sincere praise warms their heart and keeps you happy, too.
B．Second, focus on your own strengths and what you’re good at.
C．Learning from others is never a bad thing.
D．Maybe you think your classmate is better at English than you, or your friend runs faster in PE class.
E．We should try our best to be the top student.
F．Ask yourself: Am I doing better than before

In some situations, finding people in danger can mean the difference between life and death (死亡). Now, robots are here to help! Imagine a building falling down and you can’t get out—you can’t move, so you have to wait for someone to help you. Suddenly, a robot appears and looks at you through a small opening—robots are doing a great job in saving people!
We face many disasters on Earth. Sometimes, bad things happen like big storms, earthquakes (地震), or fires. These disasters can put people in danger and cause a lot of problems. For a long time, people had to search for the living all by themselves (独自). But now, robots are joining them.
Robots play an important role in this field. Robots can go to places that are too dangerous for humans. Some robots can fly and look for people from the sky. Others can move on the ground or even swim in water. Scientists around the world are making new kinds of robots to help in disasters.
Scientists get new ideas from animals to make these robots. For example, some robots look like snakes and can move through small spaces. Others are like bees and can work together to find people.
These robots might not be ready to work right now, but they will be very helpful in the future.
