We breathe in two different ways: chest (胸部) breathing and belly (腹部) breathing. We usually use chest breathing when exercising. So we can see our chest moving upwards (向上) and outwards. If we keep using chest breathing, it can put our body under stress. 36. ________Well, what is belly breathing?When we breathe in, our diaphragm (横隔膜) moves down and air moves into our lungs (肺), which pushes our organs (器官) in the belly down and forces our belly outwards.37. ________ Air moves out of our lungs. Our belly moves upwards helping let fee air out of our lungs.A growing number of studies suggest that belly breathing could help to have less stress and pain.38. ________ After you lie comfortably on the floor with head supported and knees bent, follow the following steps.39. ________ It will get bigger as you breathe in, and it will get smaller as you breathe out. Now, place your hand on your belly, breathe in slowly through your mouth, and feel it getting bigger. Hold your breath and count to three. Then breathe out slowly through your mouth. You can repeat this exercise a few times till you feel relaxed and calm. 40. ________A. It relaxes and moves up when we breathe out.B. Imagine your belly is a balloon (气球).C.

Scientists give a name to this: the whale fall (鲸落).Recently, some scientists on a Chinese research ship called Tansuo-1  found a whale fall at the depth of 1,600 meters in the South China Sea. 66. As far as we know, this is the first time for China to find this kind of special ecosystem. So far, less than 50 modem natural whale falls have been found by humans around the world.67. The whale fall is really important to deep-sea animals, as it provides food for them. Usually, the whale fall goes through three stages (阶段). The first stage comes just after the whale's death. As well as the whale dies, many marine animals will come to eat its body. This stage can last for months. At the second stage, smaller animals come for the whale's bones and leftovers (残留物). This stage can last one or two years. Bacteria (细菌) play an important role in the third stage, 68. because they are able to turn the rest of the whale into useful things to the sea.69.但是这个阶段能持续长达100年。The whale fall found in the South China Sea is 3 meters long. It is still in the first stage. The scientist will spend a long time in studying the whale fall to understand the deep-sea ecosystem better.People always say that one whale falls, everything lives.70.这提醒我们要保护鲸鱼而不是杀害它们。Don't forget that whales are in great danger, and they need our help.第四部分  书面表达（15分）如何做好有效沟通一直是家长头疼的问题。如今，越来越多的家长更加倾向于做“朋友型”的家长，与孩子互相学习，共同成长。与父母沟通也是孩子们需要认真思考的问题。请写出你与父母相处中遇到的问题，你是怎么解决的？提示词: communicate with; have different ideas要求：1．条理清楚，行文连贯；2．不能出现真实的人名和地名；3．词数70。  八年级参考答案1-5 BCBAB                   6-10BCACA11-15AACAB                 16-20BBABC21-25 ACBCC                 26-30 CABAA31-35 BCBCA                 36-40 ADEBC41.
