To make it worse, there’s often someone next to you eating loudly.Eating and drinking is not rare(罕见的) among Chinese passengers.

They talked for a long time.“Have a look at your watch, please,” said the girl. “What time is it now?”“Sorry, something is wrong with my watch,” said Jack. “Where's yours?”“I left it at home.”Jack thought for a moment and found a way.

The good news is that there are seven times as many trees for everyone as we thought. A few years ago, scientists believed that the world had 400 billion trees. However, a new study from Yale University shows that there are around three trillion trees. That's a three followed by 12 zeroes. That means there are about 420 trees for everyone in the world today.The bad news is that thousands of years ago, the earth had six trillion trees. Humans cut in half the number of trees on the planet. Take Europe for example, it was a large forest thousands of years ago. Now much of it is cities and towns. And another 15 billion trees are lost each year.Dr. Thomas Crowther is one of the scientists from Yale University. He said the new number of trees from their study would change nothing. "The study only shows we need to do more to protect our forests," he said.31．The passage is about a study of ________ in the world.A．the kind of trees B．the number of treesC．the kind of animals D．the number of animals32．________ is one trillion.A．10,000,000,000,000B．1,000,000,000, 000C．10,000,000,000D．1,000,000,000 33．In the past, we thought everyone had about ________ trees.A．400B．12C．60D．420 34．Thousands of years ago, ________ covered Europe.A．many mountains B．a large sea C．many cities and towns D．a large forest35．What can we learn from Dr. Thomas Crowther?A．We still have enough trees to cut down.B．We can find more trees in the future. C．We should do more to protect forests.D．We should stop cutting trees down now.In 2015, seven college students in America started a project (项目) called Spokes. They planned to ride across the United States. Did they start the project for health reasons? No. They did this to get more kids interested in science. On their way, they would stop in small towns and hold classes for younger students. The trip began in Washington, D．C on June 1 and finished in California at the end of August. The Spokes team went to schools. They invited students from grades 6 to 12 to join their classes. Some of their lessons were about engineering (工程学). Others were about computer science. The students learned many interesting things from these classes, such as how to make model planes and robots. They liked the lessons so much. Spokes members were glad to see this. “We can’t teach them programming (编程) in a day,” Bent, a member of the Spokes team, said. “But we can get them excited about programming and show them science is cool. Then, kids might think about taking jobs in science when they grow up.”36．Why did the college students start the Spokes project?A．To keep healthy.B．To visit beautiful places.C．To make friends with kids.D．To get kids interested in science. 37．How long was the trip?A．Ten days.B．Eight weeks.C．Three months.D．Half a year. 38．What can’t we learn from their lessons?A．Making robots.B．Making music.C．Making model planes.D．Computer programming.39．What does the underlined word “this” refer to (指的是) in the third paragraph?

I worked with Mr. Simpsons, and our job was to plan activities for the old people. I read them letters from their children and helped with special days like Ice Cream Day, Summer Picnic Day, and Clown Around Day. I also took the sick people for walks. We also had birthday parties and exercise days.Through my volunteering I have made a new friend—Irene. She has family, but they live far away and cannot come to visit her often. She grew up in Shelton and lived in Milford before she came to the home. She has two sons who don’t often visit her. Her grandchildren, however, do visit her every weekend. Through our talks, I have found that like me, Irene was a cheerleader (拉拉队队员) in high school.My volunteer experience showed me that I could bring happiness to the old people. Everyone will have to face having parents and grandparents growing older. Volunteering at the nursing home made me a stronger and more caring person.56．Why did the writer volunteer at the nursing home?__________________________________________________________________________ 57．What’s the writer’s job at the nursing home?__________________________________________________________________________ 58．Who did the writer take for walks?__________________________________________________________________________ 59．When do Irene’s grandchildren visit her?__________________________________________________________________________ 60．How does the writer feel about the experience?__________________________________________________________________________B 书面表达。
