When he went by the train station, he saw a young man coming out with two bags in his hands. So he drove to him and asked, “Where are you going, sir?” “To the Golden Hotel,” the young man answered. When the taxi driver heard this, he didn't feel happy any more. The young man would give him only three dollars because the hotel was near the train station. But suddenly, he had an idea. He took the young man through many streets of the big city. After a long time, they arrived at the hotel. “Here we are! You should pay me seventeen dollars, please,” the taxi driver said to the young man. “What? Seventeen dollars! Do you think I'm a fool? Only last week, I took a taxi from the train station to this hotel and I only gave the driver fifteen dollars. I know how much I have to pay for the trip.”15ACBAA610CABBC1115BBCCB1620BACCB2125BABCCOne possible version:Dear Editor, I have read the survey about “After-school classes for Children”. I know many parents suggest their children should take after-school classes. They think its good for children to start learning from a young age. After-school classes can help kids get into a good university. They want their kids to be a successful person, they can find a better job and have a happier life.(选择同意观点)I agree with my parents. In my opinion, I think its important for me to take after-school classes, because the classes can cultivate my interest and I can learn more about my favorite subjects. Besides, I can gain more knowledge from the after-school classes so that I can improve our grades. (选择不同意观点)I dont agree with the parents. In my opinion, its a waste of time to take after-school classes, because thats not what I want to learn. Also, it influences my study and gives me too much pressure. It probably makes me hate studying. For us, we need more time to relax because we are too tired at school, and do what we like.八年级英语试题 第 3 页 共 3 页
