《2025年春如金卷初中英语暑假作业本八年级》

Over one hundred years ago, there lived a man named Phileas Fogg. For many years, he led a very quiet life. He spent every day at his club, where rich men went to meet their friends.
Every morning, he left his house at exactly 11:30 and walked 576 steps to his club. Then he ate lunch. After lunch, Fogg read three newspapers from cover to cover. Then he ate supper. After that, he played cards with friends. At midnight, he went home to bed ... before doing exactly the same the next day.
But one Wednesday, everything changed. Fogg read some amazing news in his paper.
“Listen to this,” he announced (宣告) to his friends. “It says it’s possible to travel around the world in only eighty days!”
Although his friends had a laugh over that, Fogg was sure he could do it.
When one friend bet (打赌) that it couldn’t be done, Fogg replied, “I will bet twenty thousand pounds that I can go around the world in eighty days or less!”
Everyone thought he was crazy but Fogg had made up his mind. “I shall be back on December 21st,” he said.
As soon as he arrived home, Fogg asked Passepartout, his butler (男管家), to pack a small bag. Luckily, Passepartout moved very quickly.
In less than ten minutes, they were on their way to the station ... and at 8:45 exactly, the train pulled out, Fogg and Passepartout were off on their great adventure (冒险).
They were heading for the coast, where they could catch a boat to France. But they were also heading straight for trouble.
