Donald Lubeck was lying in bed. Outside, lightening lit up the sky, and thunder shook the house. Suddenly he heard the smoke alarm sounding. Lubeck walled down to see what happened. He opened the door to the kitchen, and flames just went out.The sudden strong wind from the doorway immediately created a large fire from a small one, probably caused by lightening. Lubeck went back to his bedroom to call 911. "I felt safe because the room had a separate stairway," he explained.The phone didn't work, and when Lubeck tried to go down the stairway, he was stopped by wall of flames. Lubeck realized he was in trouble. His daughter and granddaughters, who lived with him, were away for the night.Up a hill lived Lubeck's neighbors, Jeremie Wentworth and his wife. From his house,Wentworth saw the black smoke. He rushed out, and headed towards Lubeck's house. He knew Lubeck lived in the house.He dialed 911. On the phone, the 911 worker warned Wentworth not to enter the house."But I told the worker, 'Sony, but I'm going in. I can hear Lubeck shouting. 'Help me!' I can't let myself do nothing in this situation,' " he says. "I went in and shouted, 'Don, where are you?Then I had to run outside to catch my breath."After one more try inside the house, he gave up. Then the wind parted the smoke just enough for him to see Lubeck on the second -floor bedroom. But there was no way to get to him. "I finally noticed a ladder （梯子）," says Wentworth. He set it against the wall and pulled Lubeck down. Just seconds later, the floor fell down.Within the year, Lubeck and his family built a new two-story house at the place. Wentworth and Lubeck don't run into each other often, but Lubeck now knows that if he ever needs help,Wentworth will be there.3A.B.C.D.Where did the fire start?In the kitchen.In the doorway.In the bedroom.In the living room.（1）A.B.C.Why did Lubeck feel safe at the beginning?Because he knew how to fight fire.Because he thought it was a small fire.Because he thought he could get out easily.（2）三、阅读D.Because he knew his neighbor would help him.A.B.

But on Thursday, Viesturs became the only American to climb to the top of the world's 14 highest mountains.His last hike was up Mount Annapurna, in Asia's snowcapped Himalayas. At 26,345 feet,its peak is the 10 highest in the world. It is the mountain that inspired him to start climbing."It tends to be the trickiest, the most dangerous," said Viesturs "There's no simple way to climb it. There are threatening avalanches （雪崩） and ice falls that protect the mountain."In high school, Viesturs read French climber Maurice Herzog's tale of climbing the icy Annapurna. Herzog's story was of frostbite （冻伤） and difficulty and near-death experiences.Viesturs was hooked right away.Viesturs got his start on Washington's Mount Rainier 1977, guiding hikes in the summer. 15years ago, he set out walk up to the world's highest peaks. Finally, he's done.4thThe pioneering climber talks about mountains as if they were living creatures that should be treated with respect. "You have to use all of your senses, all of your abilities to see if the mountain will let you climb it." said Viesturs. "If we have the patience and the respect, and if we're here at the right time, under the right conditions, they allow us to go up, and allow us to come down."What's next for a man who can't stop climbing? I'm going to hug my wife and kids and kind of kick back and enjoy the summer,” says Viesturs. But for a man who has climbed the world's 14 tallest mountains, he will probably soon set off on another adventure.A.B.C.D.What record has Ed Viesturs set?He has succeeded in climbing to the world's 14th highest mountain.He has been to the top of the world's 14 highest mountains.He has become the first man to climb to the top of 14 highest mountains in the world.He has become the first to climb to the height of 26,545 feet.（1）A.B.C.D.The underline word "hooked" in Paragraph 4 means "" .frightened discouraged interested upset（2）A.B.C.D.What Viesturs said in Paragraph 6 supports the view thatmountain climbing is a dangerous sportmountains should be regarded as living creatures those who like mountain climbing won’t stop climbing mountain climbing needs more skills than physical energy （3）A.B.C.D.What's the next probably plan of Viesturs?Stopping climbing and staying with his family.Climbing to the top of the world’s 14 tallest mountains again.Climbing another one of the highest mountains.Writing down the experiences about his adventure （4）A.B.C.D. What is the best title of the passage?14 adventuresThe world's 14 highest mountains The hike up Mount Annapurna The pioneering climber（5）C5Although love can make adults live healthily and happily, it is a bad thing for young people.Puppy love （早恋） may bring stress for young people and can lead to depression （沮丧）.The study shows that girls become more depressed than boys, and younger girls are the worst of all.The possible reason for the connection between love and higher risk of depression for girls is "loss of self" . According to the study, even though boys would say "lose themselves in a romantic relationship" , this "loss of self" is much more likely to lead to depression when it happens to girls. Young girls who have romantic relationships usually like hiding their feelings and opinions. They won't tell that to their parents.Dr Marian Kaufman, an expert on young people problems, says 15% to 20% young people will have depression during their growing. Trying romance often causes the depression. She advises kids not to jump into romance too early. During growing up, it is important for young people to build strong friendships and a strong sense of self. She also suggests the parents should encourage their kids to keep close to their friends, attend more interesting school activities and spend enough time with family.Parents should watch for signs of depression---eating or mood changes---and if they see signs from their daughters or sons, they need to give help. The good news is that the connection between romance and depression seems to become weak with age. Love will always make us feel young, but only maturity （成熟） gives us a chance to avoid its bad side effects.A.B.C.D.Which people are more likely to have depression?Young people who always have a strong sense of selfishness.Young girls who always hide their feelings and opinions.Young boys whose parents watch for their behavior.Careless parents whose children are deep in love.（1）A.B.C.D.The underlined word "it" in Paragraph 2 refers to ""loss of selfhigher risk of depression a romantic relationshiphiding their feelings and opinions （2）A.B.C.D.What can we learn from the passage?The older a woman is, the less likely she seems to lose herself in cking love can lead young people to grow up more quickly.Early love makes young people keep close to their friends.Love can make all people live healthily and happily.（3）A.What's the writer attitude towards puppy love?Surprised（4）B.C.D.Disinterested Scared Disagree.A.B.C.D.What's the main idea of the passage?Puppy love may bring young people depression.Parents should not allow their children’s love.Romance is a two--edged sword for adults.Romance is good for young people.（5）DChina's homegrown passenger plane took off on its first flight in Shanghai on Friday, May 5, 2017.

You don’t show your secret personality when you’re awake because you can control your behavior, but when you’re asleep, your sleeping position shows the real you. In a normal night, of course, people frequently change their position. The important position is the one that you go to sleep in.If you go to sleep on your back, you’re a very open person. You normally trust people and you are easily influenced by fashion or new ideas. You don’t like to upset people, so you never express your real feelings. You’re quite shy and you aren’t very confident.If you sleep on your stomach, you are a rather secretive(不坦率的)person. You worry a lot and you’re always easily upset. You’re very stubborn(顽固的), but you aren’t very ambitious. You’re us ually live for today not for tomorrow. This means that you enjoy having a good time.If you sleep curled up (卷曲),you are probably a very nervous person. You have a low opinion of yourself and so you’re often defensive. You’re shy and you don’t normally like meeting people. You prefer to be on your own. You’re easily hurt.If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a well-balanced personality. You know your strength s and weaknesses. You’re usually careful. You have a confident personality. You sometimes feel anxious, but you don’t often get depressed. You always say what you think even if it annoys people.1．According to the writer, you naturally show your secret and real personality .A．only in a normal nightB．only when you go to sleepC．only when you refuse to show yourself to the wordD．only when you change sleeping position2．Which is NOT mentioned in the second paragraph about a person’s personality?A．He or she is always open with others.B．He or she always likes new ideas earlier than others. 21*cnjy*comC．He or she is always easily upset.D．He or she tends to believe in others.3．Point out which sentence is used to show the personality of a person who is used to sleeping on his or her stomach?

B．On a notice board.C．In a film magazine. D．In a math book.C15、①What does the city of the future look like? Flying cars? Robots? Or smog（烟雾）-eating buildings?②Arconic, an American company, has made plans to build a 4.8-kilometer-high skyscraper（摩天大楼）. It says that thesuper tall building can clean not only itself but also the air around it by “eating” smog and pollutants（污染物）. But how is it done?③Sherri McCleary, s scientist at Arconic, says they have introduced a new technology called EcoClean. It is a special coating that pulls pollutants out of the air. With a little help from sunlight and water vapour（水蒸气），the coating will produce atoms（原子能）called free radicals（自由基）. It is these free radicals that will take in air pollutants, break them down, and then leave the air cleaner.④But “eating” smog and pollutants is not the only thing this skyscraper is able to do. In fact, thanks to 3D printing, the materials the building used will become even better and stronger---not only making the skyscraper look more modern, but also make it possible to stand strong winds and terrible weather.⑤However, some people don’t think it will work out well. Air pollution has its own character and it harms lots of cities. Does the smog-eating building have such a magical ability to stop the pollution? It seems impossible to bring the pollution under control in a short time. We should prepare ourselves for a hard fight against the pollution.⑥Sounds impossible? Anyway, Arconic believes a skyscraper of this kind will be built by 2062.1．EcoClean works by___________.A．standing terrible weather B．bowling out air pollutantsC．breaking down free radicals D．pulling pollutants out of the air2．The fourth paragraph is mainly about_________.A．what Arconic is B．how EcoClean worksC．what else this skyscraper can do D．why scientist want to build this skyscraper3．Arconic’s attitude（态度）towards the skyscraper can best be described as __________.A．hopeful B．regretful C．thankful D．unbelievable4．The writer’s purpose of writing this article is to______________.A．bring people some pleasureB．introduce a wonderful technologyC．show how to build the tall buildingD．tell us the importance of protecting the environmentD16、B根据表格内容，从题中所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选择最佳答案。

"Rosa would like these," Sam thought, "but would it be embarrassing to give her second-hand books for her birthday？"Sam decided that a second-hand gift was better than no gift at all.Besides,Rosa supported recycling in a big way.So,she would probably like it.With his last dollar,Sam bought the books and went home.He felt a little better.The party was on Saturday.Rosa opened all her gits and thanked everyone for the nice things they had given her.She paused （停顿） when she opened Sam's git,which made him wonder if she liked the books,but nothing was said.When Sam got home,he checked his email and found this note from Rosa.The week turned out to be a good one after all.（1）What is Sam's main problem in this story？ ___A.Sam's mother was out of work.B.Sam wasn't invited to Rosa's party.C.Sam's family would pay less rent on their apartment.D.Sam thought he didn't have enough money to buy Rosa a gift.（2）Why was Rosa so happy with the cookbook？ ___A.Her grandmother loved books about cooking.B.She dreamed of becoming a great cook.C.She had never tasted Shanghai foods before.D.She could learn to cook Shanghai foods.（3）After reading the thank- you note from Rosa,Sam will most probably ___ .A.write to Rosa to express his happinessB.learn to cook Shanghai foods like RosaC.ask Rosa to lend him the two booksD.look for more second-hand books（4）Which saying best expresses the main idea of this story？ ___A.Love me,love my dog.B.The best things in life are free.C.It's the thought that counts.D.A friend is easier lost than found.4.（填空题，8分）Can plants talk？Modem study has found something amazing：they do communicate with each other.It has been known for some time that plants use chemicals to communicate with each other.This happens when a plant gets attacked by insects.The plant gives out chemicals from the leaves hat are being eaten.This is like a warning,or a call for help："I'm being attacked!" When another plant gets the chemicals,it starts to give out its own,different chemicals.Some of these chemicals drive insects away.Others attract the wasps （黄蜂）!The wasps kill the insects that are eating the plants.Scientists hope to learn more about this plant warning system,so that we can use it to grow more crops.More surprisingly,plants also use sounds to communicate.People can't hear these sounds,but plants are making them.Some plants make noises with their and chili plants do this.Some trees make clicking noises when there is not enough water.Most surprisingly of all,plants have an amazing system of communication that can link nearly every plant in a forest.Scientists call this system the "wood wide web".The wood wide web is linked underground by fungi （真菌）.It links the roots of different plants to each other.It is in some ways similar to the Internet weing the wood wide web,plants can share information and even food with each other.However,it may lead to bad effects.Plants may use it to steal food from each other,or spread chemicals to attack other plants.Perhaps one day scientists will learn how to create a "firewall" to help prevent these attacks within the wood wide web.Scientists are learning more every day about the secret ways in which plants talk to each other.Maybe one day we will know enough about plant communication to be able to"talk" with them ourselves.（1）What will plants do when they are attacked by insects？ ___A.They will kill the insects by themselves.B.They will control the wasps to kill the insects.C.They will send out signals to ask for food.D.They will produce chemicals as a warning or a call for help.（2）How is the wood wide web linked by fungi？ ___A.By making noises with their roots.B.By spreading chemicals to each other.C.By connecting the roots of different plants to each other.D.By leading to bad effects.（3）What is the writer's purpose of the last paragraph？ ___A.To give people hope for further studies.B.To praise scientists for their great achievements.C.To call on people to protect the plants on Earth.D.To encourage people to grow more plants.（4）Which is the best title for the passage？ ___A.The secret language of plants.B.The plants that make sounds.C.The study on the wood wide web.D.The study on the wasps.5.（填空题，6分）If most museums,theaters and libraries are closed,you might miss the cultural activities you used to have during holidays.But don't worry.As we are living in the Internet age,virtual （虚拟的）museums,concerts and libraries are at our fingertips,ready to be discovered from our homes.A.See VR exhibitions.B.Join live-streaming classes.C.Learn to play the instruments like bianzhong.D.Watch some videos introducing the relics.（2）What can we infer from cloud concerts？ ___A.Online concerts are not popular.B.You can choose your favourite singer's online concert.C.You must pay for a ticket to enter the online concert.D.You can't pick songs for the singers to sing.（3）From the passage,we know that ___ .A.Confucius was born in 770 BC.B.you can read books for free through some online libraries.C.you can't write comments at the online concerts.D.singers can hold online concerts only during the holiday.6.（填空题，8分）Each of us has dreams and goals for our future.What makes us study and make progress each day is closely connected with our personal dream and goal.But why do you have dreams and goals,you still end up with nothing？What separates successful people from the dreamers is their persistent （锲而不舍的） action.When you learn your lessons at school,you must work hard and not give up.You will often find some of your lessons very hard.Try and keep trying,and you'll be sure to successfully deal with any difficulty you meet with.If we have a hard lesson today,let us try our best to learn it well and then we shall be prepared for a harder one tomorrow.This is the famous formula （公式） for success：Dream ＞ Believe ＞ AchieveMost people have what they want （Dream） and think they can realize their dreams （Believe）.And then they do nothing.They just imagine their dreams can come true.When they get tired and lose a lot,they say angrily how terrible their life is.I personally believe that if you really want to achieve your dreams and goals in life,you have to add one thing to your success formula：Dream ＞ Believe ＞ Act ＞ AchieveFor me,act is the most important thing for success,and that's to take persistent action （Act）.If you say "I can't do it" and give up,you can never do anything valuable.However,"I'll try" creates wonders.Let's remember that there will be obstacles in our life.We must face them bravely and solve them.Success is not something that falls from the sky.Most successful people made their dreams come true because of their persistent action.Please remember：Action is the bridge that connects our dreams and goals to reality.（1）What should you do when you find your lessons very hard？ ___A.Ask people for help.B.Try and keep trying.C.Get ready to create wonders.D.Prepare for a harder one.（2）The underlined word "obstacles" in paragraph 8 most probably means ___ .A.dangersB.difficultiesC.imaginationsD.wonders（3）Why does the writer use the formula"Dream ＞ Believe ＞Act ＞ Achieve'"？ ___A.To support his idea.B.To ask readers to explain it.C.To show what his goals are.D.To discuss the importance of dreams.（4）What is the best title of this passage？ ___A.Doing something valuable.B.Studying hard and making progress.C.Realizing dreams with persistent action.D.Separating successful people from dreamers.7.（问答题，5分）阅读短文及文后A～E选项，选出可以填入各题空白处的最佳选项。

Getting on stage is no small task for him. A brain disease he got as a child forces him to walk with crutches（拐杖）.Seeing him walk across the stage is hard to forget. He walks painfully, but gracefully（大方地）, until he reaches his chair. He sits down slowly, puts his crutches on the floor and places his legs in the correct place. Then he picks up the violin, puts it under his chin, nods to the conductor and starts to play.But suddenly something goes wrong. The violinist finishes the first few parts of the piece, but one of the strings on his violin breaks. Everyone hears it clearly.People think the violinist will need to stop to find another string or violin. But he doesn’t. Instead, he stops for a moment, closes his eyes and goes on. He plays from where he left off, with a passion and power that people had never heard before.It is impossible to play how he does with only three strings. But this musician refuses to give up. He seems to play the strings in new ways to make the sounds he needed from the missing string.When he finishes, everyone in hall bursts into applause. The musician smiles and says: “Sometimes it is up to the musician to find out how much music he can make with what he has left.1．The first two paragraphs aim to show that .A．the violinist is very famous B．it’s hard for the violinist to do such workC．the violinist is not confident in himself D．it took the violinist a lot of time to prepare2．What does the violinist do when his violin string breaks?A．He finds another string.

I prefer to ask for directions.Foreign visitors are often puzzled (迷惑的) in Japan because most streets there don’t have names. In Japan, people uselandmarksin their directions instead of street names. For exa mple, the Japanese will say to travelers, “Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go pass a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop.”In the countryside of the American Midwest, usually there are not many landmarks. There are no mountains, so the land is very flat (平坦的). In many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distance. In Kansas or lowa, for example, people will say, “Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile.”People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map: the measure (测量) distance by means of time, not miles. “How far away is the post office?” you ask. “Oh,” they answer, “it’s about five minutes from here.” you say, “Yes, but how many miles away is it?” They don’t know.People in Greece sometimes do not even try to give directions because visitors seldom understand the Greek language. Instead of giving you the direction, a Greek will often say, “Follow me.” Then he’ll lead you through the streets of the city to the post office.Sometimes a person doesn’t know the answer to your question. What happen in this situation? A New Yorker might say, “sorry, I have no idea.” But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answer, “I don’t know.” They think that it is impolite. They usually give an answer, often a wrong one. A visitor can get lost in Yucatan.One thing will help you everywhere. You might not understand a person’s words, by maybe you can understand his body language. He or she will usually turn and then point in the correct direction.1．What does the passage mainly talk about?A．we needn’t carry a map for travel.B．There are not many landmarks in the American Midwest.C．There are different ways to give directions in different parts of the world.D．Americans and Japanese have different body languages when you ask for directions.2．What does the underlined word “landmarks” mean？A．Building namesB．Street namesC．HotelsD．Buildings or places which are easily seen3．How many ways of giving directions in the passage?A．Four B．Five C．Six D．seven4．Why does a traveler get lost in Yucatan?A．People in Yucatan don’t know what the traveler said, so they give a wrong answer.B．People in Yucatan think that “I don’t know” is impolite, so they give a wrong answer.C．People in Yucatan like making a joke, so they usually give a wrong answer.D．People in Yucatan are bad men, so they usually give a wrong answer.5．Which of the following is WRONG?A．People in some places give directions in miles but people in other places give directions by means of time. B．Travelers can learn about people’s customs by asking questions for directions.C．People in different places give directions in different ways.D．A person’s body language ca n help you understand directions.C15、When you are curious about something and want to know more about it, you can use the way of asking questions.

He often tried to climb up the trees to eat the fruit, but couldn't reach.In the valley, an old man named Martin also had a few fruit trees that he looked after very well. But as he was getting older, he noticed that he didn’t have the strength to pick the fruit.Martin had the most beautiful fruit trees in the valley, which was why Howler had his eye on them. One day he decided to steal the fruit and started jumping up and down the tree.Martin looked out of the window and realized that the wolf was trying to steal fruit from his beautiful trees. Howler jumped and jumped, but he couldn’t reach even the lowest branches of such a big tree.Seeing this, Martin had a great idea: he offered Howler a ladder to climb up, but in return the wolf would have to give him half of the fruit. Howler accepted the deal and began to collect the fruit. For the whole morning, he went up and down the ladder filling his basket with the fruit.Howler soon r ealized that he could eat all the fruit if he didn’t give Martin some. He thought up a new and secret plan. Martin, on the other hand, trusted Howler and even began to think they would be friends forever.But the wolf stole the ladder and went off to other trees in the area for more fruit.Realizing that the ladder was missing, Martin went looking for it.

Usually it takes a long time, perhaps half a day, for passengers to stay in the plane. So airlines offer passengers food. But it is common that they feel bad about food taste. Do you agree?To solve this problem , airlines try hard to improve their food. They would like to do so because they don’t want to lose customers.However, according to scientific research, part of the reason why plane food tastes bad is that at high altitude( 海拔)we can not taste things as well as we do on the ground. Also scientists have found that our noses become very dry even before a plane takes off. As the plane moves up, the change in air pressure( 气压) reduces one third of thesensibility(感觉)of our taste buds( 味蕾).So our taste buds become senseless. The sad face, however, is that our noses don’t know it.All of these help explain why food on the plane tastes so bad. They also help explain why airlines choose to offer passengers salty and spicy( 辛辣)food. Without doing so, the food would be tasteless.Now there are many researches on this. According to one of them, some volunteers are asked to lie with their feet higher than their heads for weeks. And scientists write down their feelings about food taste.Though scientists try their best, it is not as easy as they thought. Because they can’t deal with the special environment successfully, such as the change in air pressure, making food taste good is still hard for them.1．In Paragraph2,“this problem” means _______.A．passengers stay long in the planeB．food on the plane tastes badC．passengers have no food to eatD．food on the plane is expensive2．Why do scientists feel it hard to made food on the plane taste good?A．The volun teers don’t know about food taste.B．The volunteers don’t understand them.C．They can’t find enough volunteers.D．They can’t deal with the special environment successfully.3．What is the best title of the passage?A．Taste of Airplane FoodB．Airplane TravelC．Scientific Research on NosesD．The Change in Air Pressure.B14、New Baby BrotherI was sitting in school when I heard the news.“Your baby brother is born,and wants to see you!”Dad got me from school and to the hospital with no delay.Hurrying on our journey,he almost forgot the way!My brother’s hands were tiny,and wrinkly soft, like a prune.After he smiled at me,Mom said, “He’ll come home soon!”Everyone “oohing” and “aahing”,they say “He is so sweet.And one day he’ll walk around on those little baby feet!”1．The writer was _____ when hearing the news.A．at school B．at homeC．in the hospital D．in the store2．The writer’s _____ took the writer to the hospital to see the baby brother.A．father B．motherC．brother D．teacher3．The family felt _____ to have the new baby.A．worried B．surprisedC．relaxed D．excitedC15、Bill was a boy of 15. His parents went to gambling (赌博) day and night. Nobody cared about him. He always failed in his exams. So his teachers didn't like him, nor did his classmates play with him.Bill often slept in class because his heart was not in school. He almost gave himself up.One day, Miss Jones, a new teacher, came to Bill's class. She was a smiling, beautiful woman. Bill was in love! For the first time in his young life, he couldn't take his eyes off his teachers; yet, still he failed.It was Miss Jones' class. She was asking a question. "I'd like the smartest boy to answer my question." Then she said loudly, "Bill, please!"Bill was surprised. And he stood up without a word."Just try it! I believe you can!"After school, Miss Jones had a long talk with Bill. She told him that she cared about him and believed in him.Bill thought a lot that evening. From then on he arrived at school on time every day. Miss Jones helped him withhis homework in the afternoon. She even cooked delicious food for him. She told Bill, "Nothing is impossible if you put your heart in it."Later, Miss Jones gave another exam. Bill did it with all his heart. He was very excited to find that he had passed the exam. Now Bill discovered that not only could he learn, but he could do it well. A change took place in Bill's heart.You see, one teacher saved one boy, it's simple.1．Nobody looked after Bill because _______.A．His parents moved to another city B．He lived with his grandmotherC．His parents went gambling all the time D．He was silent2．Bill always failed in the exams at first because he ________.A．went gambling B．talked in classC．didn't answer questions D．almost gave himself up3．Miss Jones changed Bill by ________.A．doing homework for him B．encouraging and helping himC．giving Bill another exam D．cooking delicious food for him4．From the passage we can learn ________.A．Miss Jones was a loving and careful teacherB．Bill's parents cared about him very muchC．Miss Jones loved to answer Bill's questionD．Bill didn't like to play with his classmates5．Which may be the best title for the passage?A．Parents' Duty B．A Lazy Boy C．A Boy's Change D．A Strict TeacherD16、We know that many animals do not stay ill one place. Birds, fish and other animals move from one place to another at a certain time. They move for different reasons: most of them move to find food more easily, but others move to get away from places that are too crowed.When cold weather comes, many birds move to warmer places to find food. Some fishes give birth in warm water and move to cold water to feed. The most famous migration (迁移) is probably the migration of the fish, which is called “salmon”(麻哈鱼). This fish is born in fresh water but it travels many miles to salt water. There it spends its life. When it is cold, it returns to its birthplace in fresh water. Then it gives birth and dies there. In northern Europe, there is a kind of mouse. They leave their mountain homes when they become too crowded. They move down to the low land. Sometimes they move all the way to the seaside, and many of them are killed when they fall into the sea.Recently, scientists have studied the migration of a kind lobster (龙虾). Every year, when the season of bad weather arrives, the lobster get into a long time and start to walk across tile floor of the ocean. Nobody knows why they do this, and nobody knows where they go.So, someti mes we know why humans and animals move from one place to another, but at other times we don’t. Maybe living things just like to travel.根据材料内容选择最佳答案，将其标号填入题前括号内。

Her mom is in the backyard cutting the grass with a lawn mower(割草机). The lawn mower is loud, and Clara wishes her mom would play with her instead. But her mom says because it’s been sunny and then rainy and then sunny again, the grass has had everything it needs to grow. Now it is very long and has to be cut.Suddenly, the lawn mower turns off. Clara’s mom looks upset. Clara wonders what is wrong. Her mom bends over and picks something up out of the grass, and walks over to the porch.Clara’s mom has a turtle in her hand! The turtle is small, and as Clara looks closer. she sees that one leg is at an odd angle. “I think I broke its leg,” Clara’s mom says. “I’m really very sorry. Will you help me nurse it back to health?”Clara feels bad for the little turtle. Turtles move slowly, so it probably could not run away when it saw the lawn mower coming. And Clara’s mom could not see the turtle in the long grass! It was a mistake, but Clara and her mom will make it right. Clara names the turtle Phillip.Clara and her mom take Phillip the turtle to the veterinarian. The vet takes an x-ray of Phillip’s leg, and confirms that it is broken. Phillip the turtle gets a little splint and bandage for his broken leg. The vet tells Clara that Phillip needs plants to eat and water to drink, plus a place to live. Clara and her mom buy a small tank and some rocks at the pet store on the way home for the turtle to recuperate in.At home, Clara takes good care of Phillip the turtle. She puts water and rocks in the tank. She brings him fruit and leaves to eat, and keeps his water bowl clean Phillip seems to be in a better mood.After eight weeks, Clara and her mom take Phillip back to the vet, who says that his leg is healed. Clara is both happy and sad. Happy because Phillip is better, but sad because she has to let him go now. When Clara gets home, she kisses Phillip’s shell, says goodbye, and lets him go in the backyard. Clara will always remember Phillip.26．How was Phillip’s leg probably broken?A．It was caught on a piece of grass in the backyard.B．Clara hurt it with a piece of grass.the end.

That is about 30% of the yearly food supply (供应). It is a sad fact, especially when you consider how many families and homeless people are in hunger.When Laura saw her school dining hall throw away food that was not eaten at all every day, she came up with an idea. She started a project to help her school dining hall to give away uneaten food to homeless shelters (庇护所) in her community. In the past three years, the same project has spread to other schools and some fast food restaurants throughout the city. The project is called Feed & Find, and has already fed thousands of people in her city.How does it work? Through an app, Feed & Find matches local homeless shelters with school dining halls and restaurants that have uneaten food to provide. When dining halls or restaurants have uneaten food left, they can use the app to share the information about the food. A truck driver working for the project is then sent to pick it up and take it to a shelter.Pretty cool, right?
