Now about 1, 000 companies are allowed to take children into the great outdoors without their parents.The reason why people like “Survival Holidays” is that they think being close to nature is good for children.

Even something like crossing a small river seems to be a hard challenge. Children are not comfortable with danger. Even slight danger like getting their feet wet or falling clown seems very terrible to them.Many people think the survival activities are good for children. Even years later, they will still remember what they have learned. Some have learned to stay calm in dangerous times. Some have learned how to keep safe. Others have learned how to work in a team.

When the rain stopped, people found that a dog, later named Huahua, swam across the river to an island (小岛) twice a day for two weeks. Why Because Huahua’s four children were there. The mother dog swam there every day to feed her babies. This story touched many people.It is not only humans, but animals, who are responsible. Animals know love as we humans do, and Huahua is only one of them. British scientist Jane Goodall spent 14 years living with chimpanzees (猩猩) in Africa. She found that chimpanzees cared for each other when others got hurt or lost parents.Two birds in Chengdu showed their parental love. Their baby was hurt and fell on the street in the center of the city. Cars were driving past but the brave parents flew down to the road and took the little bird away with their claws (爪子).Animals not only love their own children, but also care for other animal babies. A chimpanzee named Anjana in an American animal research center takes care of a baby lion. She feeds the lion carefully every day. “They are just like mother and son,” said a worker at the center.1. Why did Huahua swim to the island twice a day?A. To look for food.B. To feed her children .C. To play around.D. To visit her friend.2. The underlined word “responsible” in the second paragraph means _____.A. 勇敢的B. 多愁善感的C. 有责任心的D. 长寿的3. Who saved the little bird on the street?A. People from one of the cars.B. A chimpanzee.C. A ba by lion.D. The bird’s parents.of the following is the best title for this story?A. Humans’ love for animalsB. Love for the youngC. Love among animalsD. Give a hand to animalsCRivers are one of our most important natural resources(资源). Many of the world’s great cities are located on rivers, and almost every country has at least one river running through it that plays an important part in the lives of its people. Since the beginning of history, people have used rivers for transportation. The longest one in the United States is the Mississippi. The lifeline of Egypt is the Nile. To the people of India, the Ganges is great, but it is also important for transportation; ships can travel along it for a thousand miles. Other great rivers are the Congo in Africa and the Mekong in southeastern Asia. The greatest of all for navigation(航海), however, is the Amazon in Brazil(巴西). It is so wide and so deep that large ships can go about two thousand miles up it.Besides transportation, rivers give food to eat, water to drink, water for crops, and chances for fun. In order to increase the supply(供给) of water for crops, engineers sometimes build a dam (大坝)across a river and let a lake form behind the dam. Then people can use the water not only to irrigate(灌溉) their fields but also to make electricity for their homes and industries.However, large cities and industries that are located on rivers often cause problems. As the cities grow in size and industries increase in number, the water in the rivers becomes polluted with chemicals and other materials. People are learning the importance, however, of doing more to keep their rivers clean if they want to enjoy the benefits of these natural resources.greatest river for navigation is ________________.A.the Mississippi B.the NileC.the Mekong D.the Amazonis NOT true according to the passageA.Many cities are located on rivers.B.Almost every country has at least one important river.C.The Nile is in India.D.Rivers play an important part in the lives of people.rivers are dammed, people use the water for __________.A.keeping the rivers clean B.making electricityC.washing clothes D.irrigation and the production of electricitywater in rivers is polluted with ___________.A.people’s drinking water too muchB.people’s swimming in the river too muchC.chemicals and other materialsD.people’s building a dam across a riverCYou must be told many times about the four historical stories. However, have you learned anything different about them in history classesGeorge Washington lost his first adult tooth at the age of 22. When he became the first American president, he only had one real tooth left. All his other teeth were made of wood.Everyone knows that in 1492, Christopher Columbus sailed from Spain to prove (证明) that the Earth was round. However, the truth was that Columbus didn't think the world was round at first.Many of us believe that Isaac Newton was hit on the head by an apple and he had the idea about gravity (引力). In fact, he was never hit on the head by an apple. The story by Voltaire didn't appear until the year Newton died. Newton's story is interesting, but it isn't true.Besides being one of the greatest people in history, Napoleon Bonaparte is remembered as a tiny man. And thanks to a famous painting by Louis David, people think he always had his hands hidden in his coat. But in fact, his height was about meters. It is very normal even at present.Of course, sometimes it's difficult to tell whether some historical stories are true or not. However, most of them can bring us much fun and teach us a lot.9.. __________ was as tall as a lot of people at present.A. WashingtonB. ColumbusC. NewtonD. Napoleon10..

Zhangjiajie Forest ParkWhen you are about to do something brave, a cheerful wish of "Good luck!" from a friend can be helpful. But if you think you need lots of luck, what else might you do?In the UK and the USA there are some strange traditions for bringing yourself a little more good luck. Some are hundreds of years old and some are much newer.Have you heard the saying "When you wish upon a star"? If you are looking up at the sky on a clear night and you see a sudden flash of light, it is probably a shooting star! Seeing one doesn't happen very often. The saying goes that if you see one you will be very lucky, and so if you make a wish, it may come true.Maybe you have heard of the lucky rabbit's foot. Some people believe that rabbits are lucky animals, so they carry a part of the rabbit, its foot, 'for good luck. There are all kinds of strange, unclear rules about which of the rabbit's feet is the luckiest. It is said that this good luck tradition is the oldest one of all. However, as the funny saying goes, "Depend on the rabbit's foot if you will, but remember it didn't work for the rabbit!"People in Britain love trees. If it is autumn and leaves are falling from the trees, some people try to catch the leaves as they fall because they think each leaf they catch will bring them a lucky month in the following year-they will need to catch 12 falling leaves to have a whole year of good luck!)9. From Paragraph 3, we know that_______.A. shooting stars can often be seenB. people can see a shooting star on a rainy nightC. your wish may come true if you see a shooting star and make a wishD. people believe that it's unlu cky to see a shooting star)10.
