Oliver’s brain is always verflwing with curisity and imaginatin, which makes it difficult fr him t fcus at schl r t feel like he fits in. First intrduced in Lynda Mullaly Hunt’s 2016 nvel, Fish in a Tree, the by has a starring rle in her picture bk fr readers aged six and up, Wish in a Tree. This is a bk celebrating creative thinking and ther things that set us apart.
Hunt did nt have t search far t find her inspiratin fr Fish in a Tree and its cmpanin. “This is my wn stry,” she said. “As a sixth grader with ADD (Attentin Deficit Disrder注意缺陷障碍), I vividly remember hearing ther kids writing smething n their papers and thinking, ‘I cannt d that. I must be really stupid.’”
“My teacher literally saved me that year by speaking t me abut hw I was ding, and asking me t help first graders with math.” Hunt recalled. Thse experiences inspired Hunt’s interest in becming a teacher, and she taught third and sixth grades fr 10 years befre turning t writing.
Thugh as a child she lnged “t wave a magic wand (魔法棒) and be able t fcus and get rid f the mind mvies that made my life depressing,” she said, “it turned ut t be a gift. I lve kids and as a teacher the fact that I have ADD has meant that I am able t help them in useful ways.” Attesting t the fact that her sensitivity and empathy (同理心) run deep in her fictin, Hunt ften hears that her bks make readers cry. “I almst never cry while writing nvels,” she said, “but when I wrte the line in which Oliver makes the wish ‘Please... please make me mre like the rest f them,’ it made me tear up. I was right back there with that same childhd lnging. It is s imprtant that we cntinue t deliver the message that yu are wh yu are, and yu have t hnr that. As I say in Wish in a Tree, ‘The tree is mst beautiful when all the leaves are nt the same.’”
4. What inspired Hunt t write Fish in a Tree?
A. A student’s creative thinking.B. Her childhd struggles with ADD.
C. A famus psychlgist’s advice.D. Her wn experience with a cmpanin.

C. By empwering her thrugh talks and tasks.D. By telling her what ADD meant t a teacher.
6. Why des Hunt cnsider her ADD a “gift” nw?
A. It made her a bestselling authr.B. It cured her childhd depressin.
C It allwed her t fcus n writing.D. It helped her cnnect with students.

Did yu knw that 1.3 billin metric tns f fd waste is prduced yearly arund the wrld? Did yu als knw that a charity in Cpenhagen has cme up with an incredible way t tackle this unbelievable amunt f waste? The rumrs are true — the wrld’s first ever fd surplus supermarket has pened in Cpenhagen. The stre, WeFd, aims t reduce the 700,000 tns f fd waste created by Denmark’s ppulatin yearly, by selling surplus fds at 30 t 50 per cent cheaper than average supermarkets.
The nly catch? The fd is past its fficial expiry (到期) date r has damaged packaging that wuld’ve caused it t be thrwn away at a regular stre. WeFd has frmed wrking arrangements with majr supermarket chains, butchers and fruit imprters acrss Denmark t cllect leftver fd fr sale at the surplus supermarket. The vlunteer based initiative hpes t attract bth lw-incme individuals and envirnmentally cnscius shppers, and has been receiving incredible internatinal praise since it pened its drs n Feb. 21st.
As a natin, Denmark has already been ding a gd jb cleaning up its fd waste act. The cuntry bins 25 per cent less fd than it did five years ag, and has put pressure n many f its supermarkets t sell fd near its expiratin date at lwer prices. On a wider Eurpean level, Denmark’s neighbr, France, has recently banned supermarkets frm thrwing away unsld fd, frcing stres t dnate unwanted fd t charities and fd banks.
While this is all amazing news, the glbal fight t end fd wastage is far frm ver, with fd waste increasing by 50 per cent in the US since 1990. Hwever, we need prjects like WeFd t ffer the much needed inspiratin n the matter, and t urge ther natins t take a lk at their wn fd waste situatins.
8. What is the main purpse f WeFd supermarket?
A T prvide luxury fd at lw prices.B. T cmpete with regular supermarkets.
C. T reduce fd waste by selling surplus.D. T replace traditinal charity fd banks.
9. What des “catch” in paragraph 2 prbably mean?
A. Refusal.B. Disadvantage.C. Imprtance.D. Characteristic.
10. What measure has France taken t address fd waste?
A. Redistributing unsld fd.B. Fining husehlds fr wasting fd.
C. Taxing expired fd heavily.D. Building mre surplus supermarkets.
11. What is the authr’s attitude tward glbal fd waste reductin?
A. Pessimistic due t US data.B. Satisfied with Denmark’s prgress.
C. Indifferent t individual actins.D. Hpeful but acknwledging challenges.

A recent deep-sea expeditin ff Chile’s cast has revealed extrardinary marine (海洋的) discveries, including mre than 100 ptentially new species and fur massive underwater muntains.
Between Jan. 8 and Feb. 11, researchers n bard the Schmidt Ocean Institute’s (SOI) research ship Falkr explred the seaflr ff the cast f Chile. The team mapped 20,400 square miles (52,800 km2) f seaflr, uncvering fur seamunts. The largest, named Slit (“alne” in Spanish), rises 11,581 feet (3,530m) abve the seaflr, making it mre than fur times taller than the wrld’s tallest building, the Burj Khalifa, which stands at 2,717 feet (828m) tall. Using an underwater rbt, scientists examined 10 seamunts, which revealed mre than 100 species that the scientists suspect are new t science, including crals, spnges, sea urchins, mllusks and crustaceans.
“This is far beynd ur expectatins,” said lead scientist Javier Sellanes. “Yu always expect t find new species in these remte and prly explred areas, but the amunt we fund, especially fr sme grups like spnges, is mind-blwing.”
The researchers tk samples f the creatures and will nw begin studying each ne t determine whether it is a newfund species. “Full species identificatin can take many years,” SOI’s executive directr Jytika Virmani said, and the “incredible number f samples” culd make this prcess even lnger. The researchers als nted that a majrity f the species make their hmes in sensitive underwater habitats like cral and spnge cmmunities. Human activities like mining and fishing threaten these areas. While new species within the Juan Fernández and Nazca-Desventuradas marine parks are legally prtected frm these threats, the seamunts alng the Nazca and Salas y Gómez Ridges are currently prtected.
This research trip is the latest f several SOI expeditins that have mapped seamunts in the sutheast Pacific in recent years. The institute previusly mapped fur ther huge seamunts during an expeditin ff the cast f Chile and Peru. Such “bilgical htspts” are critical t understanding marine bidiversity, said SOI directr Jytika Virmani, as they “advance ur knwledge f life n Earth”.
12. Why is the Burj Khalifa mentined in paragraph 2?
A T criticize human cnstructin prjects.
B. T explain why the expeditin tk place in Chile.
C. T emphasize hw tall a newly discvered seamunt is.
D. T cmpare mdern architecture with underwater structures.
13. Hw des Javier Sellanes feel abut the discveries?
A. Wrried.B. Surprised.C. Regretful.D. Grateful.
14. What is the main cncern abut the new species fund?
A. Sme f them are at risk.B. The water temperature is changing.
C. They are t dark t explre.D. There are t many turists visiting.
15. What is the last paragraph mainly abut?
A. The challenges f identifying new species.
B. The cntinuatin f SOP’s research and its value.
C. The imprtance f prtecting underwater habitats.
D. The cmparisn between different marine parks in Chile.

He suggested I talk t my grup members and prmised t ffer help if needed. Armed with this reassurance, I texted my grup: “Mr. Jhnsn wants prgress reprts tmrrw. Let’s meet after schl t finish ur parts tgether!” Surprisingly, all three replied instantly with thumbs-up emjis.
At ur next grup meeting, I tried t bring up my cncerns in a friendly way. “Since we’re a team , we’re all relying n each ther t d the best we can ,” I began, sliding printed research materials tward them. Vlcan sheepishly admitted he’d actually gathered sme interesting vlcan facts, while Ckie prduced a paragraph abut Hula dance. Even Cupcake surprised us with beautiful marine life phts between her selfies. As we glued everything nt the pster bard, I realized that true teamwrk isn’t abut perfect individual cntributins, but abut creating an envirnment where everyne feels mtivated t participate in their wn way.
