AA farmer had a brother in town who was a gardener, and his brother had a garden full of the finest fruit trees. So his skill and his beautiful trees were famous everywhere. One day the farmer went into the town to visit his brother, and was surprised at the trees that grew quite well."Look, my brother," said the gardener. "I will give you an apple tree, the best from my garden, and you, and your children, and your children's children will enjoy it."Then the gardener called his workmen and ordered them to take up the tree and carry it to his brother's farm. They did so, and the next morning the farmer began to wonder where he should plant it."If I plant it on the hill," he said to himself, "the wind might catch it and shake down the delicious fruit before it is ripe. If I plant it close to the road, passersby will see it and take away the apples--but if I plant it too near the door of my house, my children may pick the fruit." So, after he had thought the matter over, he planted the tree behind his barn (谷仓).Time passed, but the tree had no fruit the first year, nor the second-then the farmer called his brother. When the gardener came, the farmer said angrily, "You have cheated me, and given me a useless tree instead of a fruitful one. This is the third year and still it brings out nothing but leaves!

专题05 绿色生活低碳环保(2022·海南海口·海南华侨中学校联考模拟预测)Tree planting has become a tradition in China now. The idea of planting trees was first put forward in 1911 by Sun Zhongshan, the great pioneer in China’s history. He said more trees were needed as protection against flood (洪水) and drought (干旱). In 1915, April 5th was named as Tree-planting Day. Since 1979, the day has changed to March 12th.Besides improving the environment, tree-planting in China has a cultural connotation(内涵). Some ancient thinkers believed that people with talents are in many ways like trees. Guan Zhong (管仲), a great thinker in the Spring and Autumn Period (770-476 BC) summarized this idea in his work. Today, almost all Chinese people are familiar with a sentence: “___▲___.” It means making a small tree into wood needs a long time. Also, it is not easy to develop a talent.Since 2013, President Xi Jinping has taken part in tree-planting activities. Xi said that he aimed to make his contribution to building a beautiful China and call on the whole of society and all young people to plant more trees to make China’s environment greener. He also said,“___▲___.”Everyone has heard of the Great Wall, but have you heard of the Great Green Wall(绿色长城)? That’s the biggest tree-planting project of all. The Gobi Desert(戈壁沙漠)in the north of China was growing every year. The government and local farmers plant trees all year around. Since 1978, China has planted over 66 billion trees in the north. It is known as “the Great Green Wall”. For example, Saihanba in Hebei Province was once a desert, but now it has become the biggest man-made forest in China. “China is making the world much greener than before. It sets a good example and has many lessons to share with the world.” said the United Nations Environment Program.Every year millions of trees are planted by people in China. My parents planted a tree when I started school. And my cousin planted one on his wedding day. We do it for the environment andfor ourselves.1.What was the date of Tree-planting Day before 1979?A.It’s April 12th.B.It’s April 5th.C.It’s March 12th. 2.Which sentences can be best put in ▲ in Paragraph 2 and ▲ Paragraph 3?① Trees are so tall that leaves fall to their roots.① It takes ten years to grow a tree, but a hundred years to cultivate people.① Clear waters and green mountains are as good as mountains of gold and silver.A.①①B.①①C.①①3.According to the passage, how long has President Xi taken part in tree-planting activities?

D In Paris, one freezing winter evening, I was having dinner with my friend, Mr. Dupin, the famous detective. We had just finished our meal, when there was a loud knocking at the door. Dupin opened it. There stood Mr. Germain, the chief警长)of the Paris Police. We welcomed him warmly, for he was an old acquaintance(熟人)whom we hadn't seen for a great time.

In fact, we examined everything in the house but found nothing."… A month later, Dupin asked Germain and me to his house. There he took out a letter and handed it to the Chief. We were both very surprised. Dupin explained, "I know Minister Danton very well. He could not hide the letter in any of the usual hiding places. I realized that he might have left the letter out in the open, right under everyone's nose, where no one would search for it." "Then I visited him with my dark glasses on to help me observe(观察)better. While we were chatting, a dirty, torn letter in the letter holder suddenly caught my eyes-unusual for the Minister, who is careful and neat." "I was sure it was the letter." "Then I purposely left my gloves behind so I could come back again."

CIf music makes you smarter and exercise helps you to think, surely exercising to music can turn you into a clever person.A team of scientists from Ohio State University did experiments on 33 volunteers who were getting better from heart disease after operations. They found those volunteers who exercised while listening to Italian musician Antonio Vivaldi's The Four Seasons did much better on language ability tests than without music. It is also used in medical fields for patients who have had head hurts because of its moderate tempo (舒缓的节拍).“Exercise seems to cause positive changes in the nerve (神经) system and these changes may improve the learning ability of people with heart disease,” said the ps ychologist Charles Emery, who led the study. “And listening to music is thought to enhance understanding. We just wanted to put the two results together,” he added.The volunteers said they felt better emotionally and physically after exercising with or without music. But their improvement on the test doubled after listening to music during exercise. Scientists have proved that music can be good for health and education. It helps reduce stress and sadness, encourage relaxation or sleep, wake up the body and improve memory and thoughts.Scientists have been studying the results of exercise to music on learning and understanding since the early 1950s. A study showed that students who listened to Mozart's violin pieces and exercised went on to get higher marks in an IQ test. With important exams drawing near, your parents will not probably allow you to listen to music or play sports. But perhaps now you have good reasons to argue with them.(1)What does the underlined word enhance mean?A. produceB. provideC. improveD. impress(2)From the last paragraph we can learn that .A. you should follow your parents' wordsB. you have some good reasons to join in an IQ testC. good marks depend on listening to music and excisingD. exercise to music might help you get higher grades in tests(3)Which of the following statements is true?A.

Some people think only school children do not agree with their parents, however, it is not true. Communication is a problem for parents and children of all ages. If it's hard for you to communicate with your parents, don't worry about it. Here are some advice for you to bridge the generation gap (代沟). Don't argue (争辩) with your parents. Don't get to your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably won't consider your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you can't express yourself well if you are angry. Go someplace to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you don't think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter. Try to reach a compromise (和解). Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Michael's mother didn't agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days. Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect (尊敬) to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong. Talk about your values. The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care about, and why. Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life. A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person. It is worth having a try! (1)According to the passage who have a communication problem?
