第7课时 八年级上册 Units 7～10
一、阅读理解
(2016·山东济宁中考)I arrived in the UK last weekend to learn English. So far I have already made a few friends and had some traditional English food there. But after having three days of hamburgers, sandwiches and potatoes, I thought none could be more delicious than Chinese food, especially my favorite—huo guo. You can't imagine how excited I was when I got to know that there was going to be a free meal of hotpot to welcome the new students. On the way to the canteen, I seemed to smell huo guo in the air.
To my surprise, when I stepped into the room, I didn't see any sign of huo guo. Where was it?
With many questions in my head, I sat down to have the free meal. After talking with an English girl, I got to know that Chinese huo guo is completely different from hotpot. Chinese huo guo is written in two words—hot pot; and hotpot, one word, is a traditional English dish.
Hotpot is made from mutton and onion. On the top are pieces of potatoes. People put it in the oven all day in a heavy pot on a low heat. It takes very little effort to prepare. You can often see it at parties in the UK because it's easy to prepare for a large number of people and is not expensive.
Hotpot doesn't taste bad. However, I still miss huo guo—hot pot, two words!

五、阅读表达
阅读短文，根据要求完成文后的题目。
(2018·山东莱芜中考改编)Stress is a feeling you can have both in your mind and in your body. It can make you want to eat less, not talk to your friends and family.
A little stress in life is normal. But controlling stress is important because if you feel stressed for too long, it can seriously affect your body. Older people who have stress for a long time can develop heart disease, high blood pressure and other serious health problems.
The good news is, it can be very easy to control stress. Here are three tips：
Tip 1: Try to eat right. Some people who feel stressed try to feel much better by eating chocolates, icecream and other sweets. A little sugar isn't bad for you but don't stop eating fruit and vegetables.
Tip 2: Exercise regularly. People who are very busy with jobs or family life can feel tired a lot．Getting regular exercise can give you more energy and help you think about the things in your life that give you stress.
Tip 3: Most importantly, watch out for each other. Stress can make you feel alone. It's important to watch for stress in people that are close to you: friends look out for friends, teachers look out for students.

六、Dear Erin，
Hi, I'm your neighbor, Janet. I am really sorry to bother you, but I feel very terrible. These days you always sing and play music loudly at midnight. I find it very difficult to fall asleep. Last night you even played loud music until 3：00 in the morning. While you were having fun, I was counting stars and having a bad headache. Now I am studying for an important test. If I can't sleep well at night, I will be very sleepy in class and I can't concentrate on studying. That influences my study a lot. I have no other idea but to tell you the above. I wonder if you can keep quiet at night. Please understand me and forgive me. If you need any help, call me at any time when I am at home.
I am happy to be your neighbor and I hope we can help each other from time to time.
Sincerely，
Janet
