听力与阅读专项训练
听力与阅读专项训练一、为啥要搞听力与阅读专项训练嘿，同学们！咱来说说为啥要搞这听力与阅读专项训练。
你想啊，英语这门课，听力和阅读那可是大头！要是这两块搞不好，考试的时候可就抓瞎啦。
而且，以后咱要是想出国旅游、跟老外交流，听力不行咋听懂人家说啥？阅读不行咋看懂外文资料？所以说呀，这专项训练就是为了让咱们在英语的海洋里畅游无阻！二、听力专项训练1. 听啥咱得先知道听啥。
可以听听英语新闻，像 BBC、CNN 啥的，了解下世界大事的同时还能练听力。
还有英文电影、电视剧，一边看一边听，多有意思！还有那些专门的听力教材，可都是精华。
2. 咋听听的时候可不能瞎听，得有方法。
一开始可以先听慢速的，把每个词都听清楚，然后再慢慢加快速度。
听的时候要集中注意力，别走神。
听完一遍可以对照着原文再听一遍，看看自己哪里没听懂。
3. 反复听别听完一遍就拉倒，要反复听，直到能完全听懂为止。
这就跟背单词似的，得多重复才能记住。
三、阅读专项训练1. 读啥阅读的材料那可多了去了。
英文报纸、杂志，比如《纽约时报》《经济学人》。
还有英文名著，像《简·爱》《傲慢与偏见》。
当然，阅读理解的练习题也不能少。
2. 咋读读的时候不能光看，要动脑子。
先快速浏览一遍，知道大概讲啥，然后再仔细读，把不懂的单词和句子画出来。
读完之后可以总结一下文章的主要内容，锻炼自己的概括能力。
3. 积累单词和句型读的过程中遇到好的单词和句型，赶紧记下来，以后写作文的时候就能用上啦。
四、训练计划1. 每天安排一定时间咱不能三天打鱼两天晒网，得每天都安排点时间专门练听力和阅读。
比如说早上听半个小时听力，晚上读半个小时文章。
2. 做好记录把自己的训练情况记录下来，看看自己有没有进步，哪里还需要加强。
3. 定期测试隔一段时间就给自己来个小测试，检验一下训练效果，找找问题。
听力与阅读专项训练虽然有点辛苦，但只要坚持下来，肯定能看到效果，让咱们的英语水平蹭蹭往上涨！加油吧同学们！。

初中英语听力与阅读八年级上册听力材料
初中英语听力与阅读八年级上册听力材料全文共6篇示例，供读者参考篇1My Name is AlexHi there! My name is Alex and I'm 10 years old. I'm in the 5th grade at Oakwood Primary School. Today I want to tell you all about my life as a primary school student.I wake up at 6:30am every morning because my mom has to leave for work early. I get dressed, eat a quick breakfast of cereal and fruit, and then my dad drives me to school at 7:45am. The classes start at 8:15am.My favorite subject is science because I love learning about how things work. In science class, we get to do a lot of fun experiments. Last week, we made little volcanoes out of modeling clay, baking soda and vinegar. It was so cool to watch them "erupt"! I also really enjoy art class because I love drawing, painting and working with clay.The hardest subject for me is math. I struggle a bit with fractions, decimals and word problems. But my teacher, Ms.Jenkins, is really nice and patient. She always takes extra time to explain things to me until I understand. I just have to work a little harder in math.At 11:30am, we have our lunch break. I pack a lunch from home most days - usually a sandwich, an apple, some carrots and a cookie or chips. My best friend Jacob and I always sit together at lunch. We talk about video games, sports, movies and anything else kids our age enjoy.After lunch, we have recess for 30 minutes. There's a playground with swings, slides, monkey bars and a big field where we can run around and play sports like soccer or kickball. Recess is probably my favorite part of the school day because I have so much energy and I love being active.In the afternoon, we have more classes like social studies, reading and writing. I enjoy learning about history and different cultures in social studies. In reading, we're studying a really cool book called The Chronicles of Narnia. I love the magical world and all the adventures the characters go on. For writing, we're currently working on short stories. It's fun to use my creativity and imagination.School ends at 3:15pm. My mom picks me up a couple days a week, and other days I go to my grandma's house after schoolwhile my parents are still at work. At home, I have a snack, work on any homework I have, and then I have some free time to play videogames, read or go outside until dinner.After dinner, I take a bath and then I'm allowed to watch a little TV or play on my tablet until bedtime at 8:30pm. I really cherish this downtime after a long day at school.On the weekends, I love hanging out with my friends. We have sleepovers, go to the movies, play at the park or sometimes go bowling. I'm involved with a soccer team too, so I have games or practices some weekends.Sunday nights are my least favorite because I know I have to go back to school the next day. But overall, I really like being a primary school student. My classes are interesting, my teachers are kind, and I've made some great friends. Being a kid is hard work but it's a lot of fun too!So that's a typical day and week in my life. Being a 5th grader keeps me busy but I'm enjoying this age. I'll be off to middle school before I know it! Thanks for reading about my life as an elementary student.篇2Hi everyone! My name is Alice and I'm a student in 8th grade. Today I want to tell you all about my experiences with English listening and reading this year. Get ready, because there's a lot to cover!Let me start with listening. Man, English listening can be really tough sometimes! All those different accents, the fast speech, the slang words – it's enough to make your head spin. But you know what? I've found some great ways to improve my listening over the past few months.First up, listening to English songs. I know it sounds kind of silly, but it's honestly been super helpful. At first, I could hardly make out any of the words. But as I listened to the same songs over and over again while reading the lyrics, it started to click. The rhythms and sounds became more familiar, and soon I was singing right along! Singing forces you to really listen closely to pronunciation and word forms. Give it a try if you haven't already – pick your favorite artists and jam out while studying the lyrics.Another listening tip: Watch English TV shows and movies! Again, use subtitles at first if you need them. But try to minimize the subtitles as you get more comfortable just listening. I've been obsessed with sitcoms lately because the language is pretty conversational and there's a lot of humor that relies on listeningclosely. My comprehension has improved a ton from watching shows like Friends and The Office. The different characters have such unique ways of speaking too, which helps train your ear.Podcasts are another awesome listening resource. There are so many great ones out there on every topic you can imagine. Best of all, you can listen while doing other things like chores or exercising. I've been getting into true crime podcasts recently, which are kind of spooky but really engage my listening skills with all the details and narration. Highly recommend giving podcasts a shot!As for reading, one of the biggest things I've learned is not to get hung up on words I don't know. It's so easy to get stuck wheneverthere's an unfamiliar vocabulary word and lose track of the overall meaning and context clues. I used to constantly pause and look everything up, which was exhausting. Now I try to use context to determine the gist first, and only look up words if I absolutely have to after multiple read-throughs.Expanding my English reading outside of textbooks has helped tremendously as well. Novels, magazines, websites, you name it – reading more interesting,real-world English content is way more engaging. It exposes me to diverse styles of writing and topics which really improve my comprehension and criticalthinking abilities. Some of my favorite books I've read this year include Harry Potter, The Hunger Games, and The Hate U Give. I'm obsessed!I also make sure to read out loud sometimes, which sounds silly but seriously improves my retention and fluency. Hearing and seeing the words simultaneously creates stronger connections in my brain. I record myself too so I can listen back and identify areas to improve my pacing, intonation, etc. It's Like getting personalized pronunciation practice.Those are some of my biggest tips for English listening and reading, but I'm still learning every day. There's always room for improvement! Let me know if you have any other strategies that work well for you. I'd love to hear different perspectives. Study hard and keep at it, everyone! We've got this.篇3Hi everyone! My name is Emily and I'm in the eighth grade. Today I want to talk to you about my experiences with English listening comprehension and reading over the past few years.English has always been one of my favorite subjects in school. I find it really interesting to learn about a different language and culture. When I was younger in elementary school,listening comprehension was pretty easy. The dialogues and stories were short and simple, mostly about everyday topics like family, food, hobbies and so on. The vocabulary was basic too.However, once I got to middle school, the listening materials became a lot more challenging. The passages were longer and covered more complex subjects like science, history, literature and so on. There was a lot of new academic vocabulary to learn. The speakers also started speaking faster with more natural speech patterns and idiomatic expressions.At first, I really struggled with the step up in difficulty. I would listen to a passage and only catch a few words here and there. I felt lost and discouraged. But my English teacher gave me some great tips that really helped.First, she said to listen for context clues – things like names, numbers, transitional phrases and so on that give you a sense of the main topic and how the information is organized. Once you grasp the gist, it's easier to fill in the details.She also recommended listening to the same passage multiple times, focusing on different elements each time – the introduction, conclusion, key details, etc. Repeated listening is so important for training your ear.Another useful strategy is taking good notes as you listen –jotting down key words, dates, names, unfamiliar vocabulary and so on. Having a written record helps reinforce the information.My teacher emphasized not worrying about understanding every single word too. If you miss a section, move on and refocus rather than dwelling on what you missed. Over time, the missed details tend to become clearer through context.I took my teacher's advice to heart and started using those techniques. It wasn't easy at first, but gradually my listening skills improved tremendously. I became much better at identifying main ideas, picking out important supporting details, and comprehending more complex vocabulary and linguistic structures.The reading passages were challenging in their own way too. The texts we had to analyze got much longer and denser, packed with figurative language, idiomatic expressions, complex grammar and so on.My biggest struggle was keeping everything straight –keeping track of all the characters, remembering key events and plot points, analyzing author's purpose and point of view, identifying rhetorical devices, and so on. It was a lot to process!What helped me the most was taking diligent notes as I read, writing down my thoughts, questions and reflections in the margins. I would pay close attention to the introduction and conclusion since those tend to encapsulate the main idea. I looked for signal words like "for example," "in contrast," "additionally" and so forth to understand the logical flow.I also started keeping a running vocabulary list of unfamiliar words to look up later. Knowing the precise meanings of the language was key to really comprehending the deeper meaning of the text.Another habit that served me well was reading passages multiple times – the first just for a general sense, then going back with a more critical, analytical eye. On subsequent readings I would focus on literary devices, tone, pacing and other more subtle elements.Once I implemented all those active reading strategies, my comprehension really took off. I went from just skating by to truly understanding and appreciating the material on a much deeper level.I can't say that listening and reading comprehension in English is easy, even now. It still requires diligent focus and effort. But the techniques I've learned have made me a stronger studentoverall. I feel much more confident analyzing complex texts and recordings.I'm really proud of how far my English skills have come over the years. It just goes to show that with the right strategies and hard work, anything is possible. The key is being an active, engaged learner – not just letting the information wash over you.I still have a lot more to learn, of course. English is a rich, nuanced language full of incredible diversity in vocabulary, idiomatic expressions, accents, writing styles and so on. That's what makes it so fascinating to study and master.No matter what career I pursue, I know having excellent English listening and reading comprehension will serve me well. Those are invaluable skills for effectively communicating, analyzing information critically, and understanding different perspectives.So those are my experiences and tips so far. Let me know if anyone has questions! I'm always happy to discuss my journey and maybe we can swap strategies. Thanks for listening, everyone!篇4Hi everyone! My name is Emily and I'm a student in 8th grade. Today I want to tell you all about my experience learning English over the past few years. Get ready, because this is going to be a long story!I'll start from the very beginning. When I was in 3rd grade, my parents decided it would be really important for me to learn English from an early age. They wanted me to have an advantage when applying for good high schools and universities later on. So they enrolled me in an after-school English program.At first, I absolutely hated going to English class after my regular school day was over. I was exhausted and just wanted to go home and play. The lessons seemed so boring - learning the English alphabet, simple vocabulary words like "apple" and "book", and really basic phrases. I remember thinking English was the worst and didn't understand why I needed to learn another language.But my parents kept encouraging me to stick with it. They said being bilingual opens up so many opportunities in life. I'm really glad they pushed me, because after a few months, English class started getting more interesting. We began reading simple storybooks and watching cartoons in English. Slowly but surely, I started picking it up.By the time I got to 4th grade, my English skills had improved a lot. I could understand most of what my English teachers said during class. Reading children's books was pretty easy. And I could introduce myself, talk about my family, and discuss my hobbies in English, although I still made a lot of mistakes with grammar and pronunciation.That whole year, we spent a lot of time working on conversation skills. We did roleplays where we pretended to order food at a restaurant, go shopping, and other daily situations. Looking back, it was pretty silly, but it really helped me get comfortable speaking English out loud. I also loved the games and songs we used to practice vocabulary.In 5th grade, things started getting more challenging in English class. We had started learning how to write simple paragraphs and essays. We also read more advanced storybooks like folklore tales from different cultures. I remember learning about stuff like Johnny Appleseed, Paul Bunyan, and some Greek myths. My writing abilities were still pretty bad, but my reading comprehension was getting better day by day.That year we also started learning about English-speaking cultures and customs. I found it fascinating to learn about holidays like Christmas, Halloween, and Thanksgiving that aren'tcelebrated in my own country. We watched videos about English-speaking countries and even had a "culture day" where we tried food from places like America, Britain, Australia, and India. Getting that cultural exposure definitely motivated me to keep working hard at English.Then came 6th grade, which was a really pivotal year for my English learning. We had relocated to a new city over the summer, so I switched to a new school. The English program at my new school was much more intensive than what I was used to. We were expected to read short novels and stories in English, write multi-paragraph essays, and really work on our listening skills.It was so hard at first that I almost gave up. I remember crying out of frustration many days because I couldn't understand what we were reading or the instructions my English teacher gave. My parents had to hire a tutor to come over twice a week to help me catch up. But eventually, through a lot of perseverance and hard work, everything started clicking into place.Looking back on 6th grade, I'm so glad I stuck it out despite wanting to quit English so many times. By the end of that year, I was having conversations in English with minor mistakes,reading at an 8th grade level, and writing five-paragraph persuasive essays. I had come so incredibly far from just learning the alphabet a few years prior.Last year in 7th grade, English class was still challenging but not nearly as overwhelming as 6th grade had been. We focused a lot on more advanced writing skills like literary analysis. We read classics like To Kill A Mockingbird and The Outsiders and had to write essays analyzing the major themes. We also practiced lots of different forms of writing like narratives, research papers, and poems.My listening abilities also improved tremendously thanks to a great curriculum that incorporated audio books, podcasts, English movies and篇5Hi there! My name is Emily, and I'm a 13-year-old student in the 8th grade. Today, I want to share with you a story about my summer vacation last year. It was an adventure that taught me a valuable lesson about friendship and accepting others.During the first few weeks of summer, I was feeling a bit bored and restless. All my friends were away on family trips, and I was stuck at home with nothing much to do. That's when mymom suggested that I sign up for the local summer camp. At first, I wasn't too excited about the idea, but after some persuasion, I decided to give it a try.On the first day of camp, I was nervous and a little shy. I didn't know anyone there, and I worried that I wouldn't make any friends. As I walked into the camp grounds, I noticed a group of girls sitting together, laughing and chatting. They seemed like they were already best friends, and I felt a little intimidated.That's when I met Sarah. She was a friendly girl who introduced herself to me and invited me to join their group. I was hesitant at first, but Sarah's warm smile and welcoming attitude made me feel more at ease.Over the next few days, I started to open up and participate in the camp activities with the group. We played games, went on hikes, and even learned how to make friendship bracelets. Sarah was always by my side, encouraging me and making me feel included.One day, during a team-building exercise, we were paired up with another group of campers. That's when I met Aisha. She was a quiet girl who seemed a little shy and reserved. The other girls in our group seemed to ignore her, and I could sense that she felt left out.Sarah noticed this too, and she made an effort to include Aisha in our activities. She would ask her questions and make sure she was comfortable. At first, Aisha was hesitant to open up, but slowly, she started to participate and even cracked a few smiles.As the days went by, I realized that Aisha was actually a really cool person. She was talented at arts and crafts, and she had a great sense of humor once she felt more comfortable. I started to feel bad for judging her based on her initial shyness.One day, during a campfire night, Sarah brought up the topic of friendship and acceptance. She talked about how it's important to be kind and inclusive to everyone, regardless of their differences. She encouraged us to step out of our comfort zones and get to know people who might seem different from us.That night, I had a realization. I had almost missed out on getting to know Aisha because of my own preconceptions and judgments. I vowed to be more open-minded and accepting of others, no matter how different they might seem at first.From that day on, our group became inseparable. We laughed together, shared stories, and supported each other through the challenges of camp life. Sarah's kindness andacceptance had brought us all together, and I was grateful for her friendship.As the summer came to an end, I realized that I had learned a valuable lesson. True friendship isn't about judging others or only surrounding yourself with people who are just like you. It's about being open-minded, accepting differences, and giving everyone a chance to show their true selves.That summer camp experience changed me for the better. I became more confident, more accepting, and more appreciative of the diversity of people around me. And it all started with Sarah's simple act of kindness and inclusion.So, my friends, remember to always be kind and welcoming to others, no matter how different they might seem. You never know the amazing friendships and life lessons that might come your way when you open your heart and embrace diversity.篇6My English Class AdventuresEnglish class has always been one of my favorite subjects in school. I find the language so fascinating and love learning about different cultures through reading materials and listeningexercises. This year in 8th grade, our first semester English textbook has some really cool stuff!One of the listening exercises we did was about a boy named Jack who went on a camping trip with his family. The audio described all the preparations they made like packing tents, sleeping bags, cooking supplies, and hiking gear. It was fun to listen for vocabulary words related to camping that I had learned. When they got to the campsite, the narrator vividly described the sights and sounds of the forest. You could almost smell the pine trees! Some challenges Jack faced included putting up the tent properly and building a campfire. His little sister wasn't too thrilled about sleeping outdoors at first. But by the end, the whole family had an amazing bonding experience. Listening to dialogues like this really helps me practice my comprehension skills.Another cool unit was on extreme sports. We read some articles profiling daring athletes who participate in activities like rock climbing, bungee jumping, and white water rafting. The writers described the gear and equipment needed for each sport in great detail. There were also harrowing tales of narrow escapes and times when the athletes really had to dig deep for courage and perseverance. Some of the descriptions were sointense, it felt like I was there! I have a lot of respect for those who pursue such adventures, even though I'm more of a calm, indoor activity kind of person. The readings pushed me to infer meanings from context clues for much of the advanced vocabulary.My personal favorite was a unit on international cuisines. The readings and listenings highlighted signature dishes from all around the world - China, Mexico, India, Italy, Morocco, and more. They broke down the key ingredients and traditional cooking methods. My mouth waters just thinking about it! One of the listening passages was an interview with a chef who specializes in fusion cuisine. That's where you blend flavors from multiple culinary traditions. He described some innovative crossover dishes he created by combining techniques and components from different regions. It all sounded so creative and delicious. I asked my mom if we could try making some of the recipes at home on our next free weekend!Not everything in the textbook was fun and games though. We also covered some more serious topics like natural disasters and environmental protection. Through reading first-hand accounts, I learned what it's like to experience events like earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions. While incrediblydevastating, the resilience of the human spirit always shines through. On the environmental front, we examined how factors like pollution, deforestation, and overpopulation pose threats to delicate ecosystems around the globe. It made me feel fortunate for what I have, while also inspiring me to find ways to reduce my carbon footprint. Some of those listening passages featuring activist speakers were quite moving.Overall, this semester's materials have been very engaging and opened my eyes to so many fascinating realities about the world. My English skills haveleveled up for sure, but more importantly, I feel like a more worldly person with greater cross-cultural understanding. Vocabulary and grammar are great, but that broader awareness is the true gift of language learning. I'm already looking forward to the wonders that await me next semester!。
