The world itself is becoming much smaller by using modem traffic and modern communication means (通訊設備). Life today is much easier than it was hundreds of years ago, but it has brought new problems. One of the biggest is pollution (污染). To pollute means to make things dirty. Pollution comes in many ways. We see it, smell it, drink it and even hear it.

Pollution by SO2 is now the most dangerous kind of air pollution. It is caused (引起) by heavy traffic. It is sure that if there are fewer people driving, there will be less air pollution.

一些經典的英語短文特別適合八年級的同學練習英語閱讀能力，下面我為大家帶來八年級英語閱讀短文，歡迎大家閱讀!
八年級英語閱讀短文篇一：
In 1963 a Lancaster bomber crashed on Wallis Island, a remote place in the South Pacific, a long way west of Samoa. The plane wasn't too badly damaged, but over the years, the crash was forgotten and the wreck remained undisturbed. Then in 1989, twenty-six years after the crash, the plane was accidentally rediscovered in an aerial survey of the island. By this time, a Lancaster bomber in reasonable condition was rare and worth rescuing. The French authorities had the plane packaged and moved in parts back to France. Now a group of enthusiasts are going to have the plane restored. It has four Rolls-Royce Merlin engines, but the group will need to have only three of them rebuilt. Imagine their surprise and delight when they broke open the packing cases and found that the fourth engine was sweet as honey -- still in perfect condition. A colony of bees had turned the engine into a hive and it was totally preserved in beeswax!
在1963的蘭開斯特轟炸機墜毀在沃利斯島，一個偏遠的地方在南太平洋，薩摩亞以西很遠的地方。飛機損壞的程度並不嚴重，但是，多年來，事故已被遺忘，殘骸仍然不受干擾。然後在1989，二十六年後墜毀，飛機被意外地發現了在航測的島。到這個時候，狀況良好的蘭開斯特轟炸機實屬罕見，值得搶救。法國政府讓人把飛機包裝和部分地搬回法國。一群熱心人去修復這架飛機。它有四個勞斯萊斯梅林發動機，但是他們只需要三的重建。想像的驚奇和興奮--當他們拆開包裝箱時，他們發現第四台發動機就像蜂蜜一樣甜--發動機完好無損。一群蜜蜂把發動機當作了蜂房和它完全保存在蜂蠟!
八年級英語閱讀短文篇二：
Last Christmas, the circus owner, Jimmy Gates, decided to take some presents to a children's hospital. Dressed up as Father Christmas and accompanied by a 'guard of honour' of six pretty girls, he set off down the main street of the city riding a baby elephant called Jumbo. He should have known that the police would never allow this sort of thing. A policeman approached Jimmy and told him he ought to have gone along a side street as Jumbo was holding up the traffic. Though Jimmy agreed to go at once, Jumbo refused to move. Fifteen policemen had to push very hard to get him off the main street. The police had a difficult time, but they were most amused. 'Jumbo must weigh a few tons,' said a policeman afterwards, 'so it was fortunate that we didn't have to carry him. Of course, we should arrest him, but as he has a good record, we shall let him off this time.'
去年的聖誕節，馬戲團老闆吉米，大門，決定送些禮物給兒童醫院。他打扮成聖誕老人，伴隨著儀仗隊的六個漂亮的女孩，他出發，沿著城裡的主要街道騎大象寶寶叫做。他應該知道，警察是不會允許這種事情的。一個警察走過來告訴吉米，他應該走一條小路，因為江伯阻礙了交通。雖然吉米同意馬上就走，但江伯卻拒絕移動。十五個警察不得不用很大的力氣把它推離主要街道。警察雖然吃了苦頭，但他們還是感到很有趣。"江伯一定有好幾噸重，"一個警察後來說，"值得慶幸的是它沒讓我們抬它走。當然，我們應該逮捕他，但由於它一貫表現很好，這次我們饒了它。"
八年級英語閱讀短文篇三：
In 1858, a French engineer, Aime Thome de Gamond, arrived in England with a plan for a twenty-one-mile tunnel under the English Channel. He said that it would be possible to build a platform in the centre of the Channel. This platform would serve as a port and a railway station. The tunnel would be well-ventilated if tall chimneys were built above sea level. In 1860, a better plan was put forward by an Englishman, William Low. He suggested that a double railway-tunnel should be built. This would solve the problem of ventilation, for if a train entered this tunnel, it would draw in fresh air behind it. Forty-two years later a tunnel was actually begun. If, at the time, the British had not feared invasion, it would have been completed. The world had to wait almost another 100 years for the Channel Tunnel. It was officially opened on March 7,1994, finally connecting Britain to the European continent.

;Ⅳ 八年級上冊英語閱讀理解：dolphins are not fish.they are mammals they live in groups and
Dolphins are not fish. They are mammals(哺乳動物). They live in groups and speak to each other in their own language. But they are quite different from almost all land animals. Their brain(大腦) is as big as men』s and they live a long life—at least 20 or 30 years.
Like some animals, dolphins use sounds to help them find their way around. They also use these sounds to talk to each other and to help them find food. They do not use their ears to receive sounds, but use the jaw — the lower part of the mouth.
It is strange that dolphins are friendly to men, and for thousands of years, there are many stories about dolphins and men. In the 19th century, in a dangerous part of the sea near New Zealand, there was a dolphin. The seamen liked him very much and gave him a very good name, Jack. From 1871 to 1903, Jack met every boat in the area and showed it the way. In 1903 a passenger on a boat with the name of 「The Penguin」 shot and hurt Jack. Luckily the dolphin didn』t die, and after a long time he was well again. He guides the boats through the area for nine more years, but he refused to help the boat 「The Penguin」.
Today, some people still kill dolphins, but many countries in the world now protect them. In these places, people are not allowed to kill them.
1 The underline word jaw means _________in Chinese.
A.下顎 B.嘴巴 C.鼻子
2. Who was Jack?
A. The writer B. A dolphin C.A seaman
3. The dolphin guides the boats for about________.
A.32 years B. 9 years C.41 years
4. How do dolphins find their way?
A. They use sounds to find the way.
B. They use their noses to smell the way.
C. They use their eyes to see the way.
d. They use their ears to hear the way.
5. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT right?
A. Dolphins are not fish.
B. Dolphins don』t live in groups.
C. Dolphins are kind and friendly to people.

More than seven hundred years ago, the Prince of Wales had a very big and brave dog called Gelert.
One day the Prince wanted to go hunting(打獵) with his men. He told his dog to stay at home and look after his baby son. The baby was in a wooden cradle(搖籃), which was like a small bed.
When the Prince came back from hunting, Gelert ran out to meet his master. He wagged(搖) his tail(尾巴) and jumped up to put his paws( 手爪 )on the Prince's chest. Then the Prince saw the blood(血) on Gelert's jaws(顎) and head.
"What have you done?" the Prince said. He rushed into his house and looked for his baby son. The cradle was lying on its side on the floor. The clothes were torn and there was blood on them.
"So you have killed my son?" the Prince said angrily. "You unfaithful dog!" He took out his sword(劍) and killed the dog. Just as Gelert was dying, he managed(設法) to bark. Then the Prince heard a baby call to the dog.
