Module 8 Time off 任务型阅读（含解析）外研版八年级下册英语题型专项集训 My partner Chris and I went traveling around the world for a year, and in the end, we visited the Amazon rainforest. We spent ten days exploring the world’s largest rainforest. On the first tour, we set off from a small town to go through the forest’s wetlands. We met a group of six visitors in the town. Together with them, we made our way in a small boat, dreaming of seeing the anaconda—a kind of big snake! Our second tour led us deeper into the rainforest by boat, jeep and on foot. Both of our guides had lived in the Amazon rainforest since they were born and they knew clearly about the rainforest. As we slept in a small wooden house with water around, crocodiles (鳄鱼) would swim around us. There weren’t any walking paths deep in the forest, so we were glad to have guides leading us! We also got a chance to visit a tribe (部落). It was surprising how the local people lived off the land. We saw them make traditional baskets for carrying fruit and met the children from a local school. So much wildlife! The Amazon rainforest is full of different animals. We also went fishing for the piranha, the Amazon’s terrible sharptoothed fish! 根据文章内容，完成下列表格。 Exploring the world’s largest rainforest Tour One From a 1 to the forest Transportation: By boat Traveling with: A group of 2 visitors Expecting to see: A kind of big snake Tour Two In the deep forest Transportation: By boat , jeep and 3 Traveling with: Two guides Experiences: 4 in a wooden house with crocodiles swimming around Visited a tribe and learned about the life of the local people Went 5 阅读下面的语篇材料，根据所读内容，完成下列各题。 Alice White is a 13-year-old Australian girl and she came to China three years ago.

Alice felt excited about it because Guilin is very famous for its hills and rivers. Many people like to travel by air, but the Whites think that travelling by train is the best. It’s much cheaper and more enjoyable than a trip by air. They got up very early in the morning and got on the train at 9:00 a.m. The train was quite nice and tidy, and there weren’t many people in their sleeping car. The Whites could stand up and walk around. They kept watching the beautiful things out of the window. They talked, laughed and played cards. It was a long journey, but no one felt bored. Alice thought the train was like a big moving (移动的) party and it was so interesting. While she was listening to the sound of the running train, she was writing down her feelings and the interesting things in her diary. When it was 19:40, the train was already in Guilin.
