“I dn’t knw what t write t yu, s I will tell yu a stry abut fur little rabbits named Flpsy, Mpsy, Cttntail, and Peter,” wrte Beatrix Ptter in 1893, in a letter t a little by wh was suffering frm fever.
A decade later, with small changes, these lines frmed the pening t ne f the mst ppular bks in children’s literature — The Tale f Peter Rabbit.
Like many children-stry authrs, Ptter (1866-1943) was nt a prfessinal writer. Her main interest was nature. During her childhd family hlidays in Perthshire and the Lake District, she gt t experience nature up clse. At the Lndn Natural Histry Museum, she carefully studied plants and animals. It was her backgrund that gave Peter Rabbit and Ptter’s later animal stries their unique sense f believable wnder.
Thanks t Ptter’s drawings, the humanized rabbits seemed t exist in a familiar place. As Ptter nce admitted, her studies f plants helped make her fantasy drawings real.
Althugh later stries cntained even mre detailed drawings, Peter Rabbit has charming pictures f its impudent her. In these pictures, Peter in the vegetable garden ate radishes (萝卜) r jumped ff walls and kncked ver pts f flwers. The picture f Peter planning t escape frm the garden while watching Mr. McGregr, his enemy, digging up nins gives us a feeling f tensin and adventure that appeals t the child in all f us.
Ptter’s lve f all animals is reflected in the many ther creatures she drew, including rbins, sparrws and starlings, a muse, gldfish and a beautiful white cat.
The Tale f Peter Rabbit was first published by Frederick Warne in 1902. Ptter wanted the bk t be small enugh t fit int a child’s hands and inexpensive (with black-and-white drawings), but Warne had a different pinin. Only after Ptter had the bk published privately did Warne change his mind. Tday, the riginal stries can be fund published by Warne, and tw millin Ptter bks are sld wrldwide each year.
4. What cntributes t the realness f Ptter’s drawings?
A. Her friendship with a sick child.B. Her prfessinal training as a writer.
C. Her effrt t becme a famus artist.D. Her cntact with nature in childhd.
5. What des the underlined wrd “impudent” prbably mean in Paragraph 5?
A. Brave.B. Rude.C. Clever.D. Shy.
6 What was Warne’s first attitude tward Ptter’s idea f bk publishing?
A. Supprtive.B. Dubtful.C. Excited.D. Uninterested.
7. Which f the fllwing is the best title fr the passage?
A. Nature and Imaginatin: The Stry Behind Peter Rabbit.
B. Inspiratin fr Art: The Histry f The Tale f Peter Rabbit.
C. Letters and Literature: The Origin f Children’s Literature.
D. Beatrix Ptter: A Talented and Successful Businesswman.

A year ag, I attended a special event in Nairbi, the capital f Kenya. It was t raise mney fr a wedding. Many f the guests were yung businesspeple wh carried lts f cash, eager t help the cuple. Suddenly, the hst asked thrugh the micrphne, “Shall we begin this harambee?”
Harambee is a Kenyan traditin. The wrd means “all pull tgether” in Swahili, Kenya’s natinal language. It is the natin’s fficial mtt (格言), and it appears n the cuntry’s cat f the emblem (国徽). Fr Kenyans, harambee means a simple rule: whether yu are rich r pr, everyne lends a hand t thse in need.
A harambee can be anything frm giving mney t emtinal supprt t a small act f kindness. Whenever smene needs help with a wedding r a funeral (葬礼), they will cntact an elder family member r tribal (部落的) leader. This leader will then call a meeting with ther elders. If the prblem is big, they will rganize a harambee. Peple cntribute mney, services r emtinal and physical supprt, and expect nthing in return.
A histrian frm the University f Nairbi said that, lng ag, Swahili wrkers shuted “Harambee!” t lift heavy things tgether. Accrding t Kenyan flk tales, in the 1890s, sme 30,000 Indian wrkers came t Kenya t help build the Kenya-Uganda railway under the rders f the British. As they wrked beside Kenyans, the Indians called n “Hare,” the divine pwer (神力) f Gd, and “Ambe,” the gddess f energy. The Kenyan wrkers ften jined. Slwly, the wrds “Hare” and “Ambe” mixed int “Harmbee”.
The wrd became ppular in 1963, when Kenya’s first president, Jm Kenyatta, encuraged peple t accept the mtt. The natin had just becme independent frm Britain. Kenyans were eager t pull the cuntry tgether and build a new natin. Tday, the spirit f harambee lives n in the hearts and minds f all Kenyans.
8. Why is the cat f Kenya’s emblem mentined in Paragraph 2?
A. T prve Kenyans’ lve fr their cuntry.
B. T praise Kenya’s independence frm Britain.

10. What can we learn abut harambee frm Paragraphs 4 and 5?
A. Indian wrkers inspired its creatin.B. Indian wrkers built a railway with it.
C. It was first used by Swahili wrkers fr fun.D. It was a Kenyan custm befre independence.
11. What best reflects the authr’s attitude tward harambee?

A strm surge (风暴潮) is a raised sea brught by trpical cyclnes (热带气旋), als knwn as typhns r hurricanes. These pwerful strms prduce strng winds that push the water int shre (岸), ften causing flding.
A strm surge is mainly caused by the relatinship between the winds and the cean’s surface. The water rises where the winds are strngest. In additin, water is pushed in the directin the winds are blwing. The rtatin (自转) f the Earth causes winds t mve tward the right in the Nrthern Hemisphere (半球) and tward the left in the Suthern Hemisphere. If a cyclne develps in the Nrthern Hemisphere, the surge will be the largest in the right-frward part f the strm. In the Suthern Hemisphere, the surge will be the largest in the left-frward part.
Atmspheric pressure (气压) als plays a key rle. In a cyclne the central pressure is lwer than at its edges (边缘). This pushes dwn the water in the uter parts f the strm, causing the water t rise in the center.
Mre factrs cntribute t the strength f a strm surge as it cmes t the cast. The water can reach as high as 10 meters if the strm surge happens at the same time as high tide. The cast’s slpe (坡度) matters t: shallw casts fld mre easily.
The strm surges are a serius danger fr castal areas. They typically frm in late summer when cean temperatures are highest, prviding the energy needed fr cyclne develpment. Histrically, strm surges have caused terrible lsses. Fr example, the 1900 Hurricane Katrina in the U.S. claimed ver 6,000 lives, while the 1970 Bhla Cyclne in Bangladesh resulted in abut 500,000 deaths.
Tday, imprvements in frecasting (预报) and warning help reduce damage dne by a strm surge. Infrmatin abut surges like speeds, heights and paths are prvided, allwing cmmunities t prepare and leave.
Castal cmmunities can prtect themselves against strm surges by prtecting lcal wetlands, which can take in the water and the energy f strm surges. But unfrtunately they have made way fr the city develpment.
12. What is a main cause f strm surges?
A. Heavy rainfall during cyclnes.B. Earth’s rtatin redirecting the winds.
C. Sudden rises f central pressure.D. Strng winds pushing seawater ashre.
13. Where is a strm surge the largest in the Nrthern Hemisphere?
A. Center f the cyclne.
B. Castal areas with wetlands.
C. Right-frward part f the strm.
D Left-frward part f the cyclne.
14. Why des the text mentin Hurricane Katrina and Bhla Cyclne?
A. T shw the increased cyclne frequency.
B. T stress the damaging effects f strm surges.
C. T explain the ecnmic benefits f wetlands.
D. T cmpare strm surges in tw hemispheres.
15. What will the passage prbably talk abut next?
A. Strategies t fix castal wetlands.
B. Methds t frecast cyclne paths.
