《2025年自我提升与评价八年级英语上册译林版》

五、短文填空
In China many students spend much of their time on their studies and don't help with housework at home. As a result, they lack(缺少)basic skills. $^{(1)}$Luckily, things are changing. Since last year, many schools have begun to teach students life skills.
In Hope Middle School in Jiangsu, students have a $^{(2)}$special life skill class. They learn to make jiaozi in $^{(3)}$different kinds of shapes. “I couldn't make jiaozi before, but now I am $^{(4)}$good at doing it. I really love my life skill class. It's my favourite class,” said Zhang Yan, a boy at the school.
Suren School set up some farming $^{(5)}$courses. Their students learnt to plant vegetables. “At $^{(6)}$first, I thought I could only grow some vegetables here, but later I learnt a lot about vegetables too,” said Chen Jia, a girl at the school.
In fact, $^{(7)}$learning life skills is as important as learning Chinese and Maths $^{(8)}$because it helps us prepare for our future life. $^{(9)}$Through activities, students can develop their hobbies and enjoy their school life.
Do you help your parents do housework at home? $^{(10)}$If not, maybe you should get started now.
