A Day at the Nature Center

Emma stared (凝视) sadly out of the window of the bus. Only 50 miles outside town was the farm. She thought about the farm all the time, especially the animals.

When her family sold the farm and moved to nearby town, Emma was excited, got to the new school, she felt very lonely.

With a sigh (叹气), Emma turned her attention back to the present. The bus came to a stop. “Welcome to the Leinweber Nature Center,” her teacher said. “A guide will give us a presentation about animals, and then you’ll help to feed the baby squirrels. Now, I want everyone to find a partner. ”

Emma didn’t have any friends yet — who would be her partner? Emma got close to Julia, a talkative and outgoing girl. “Could I be your partner?” Emma asked uncertainly.

“Sure,” said Julia warmly.

Together, the girls walked into the center. After the presentation, a keeper showed them how to hold the bottle of milk for baby squirreLs. Then the girls started to feed their own baby squirrels.

After the babies finished eating, the keeper asked, “Would you like to help feed the adult squirrels, too?”

Emma was quick to volunteer, but when the keeper opened the first cage, the squirrel inside jumped out. Emma remained calm (镇静的), held out her hand, made quiet sounds, and then quickly got it.

“Wow!” Julia said. “You’re always so quiet, I thought you were afraid of everything, but you are brave.”

“I know that when animals are frightened or excited, you have to stay calm. ”

The keeper nodded in agreement and asked Emma, “Would you be interested in volunteering to help out with the animals at the center?”

“Interested? I would love to work here! What an opportunity!” Emma was excited.

That afternoon, in the bus on the way back to school, Emma sat next to Julia, her new friend. A rush of newfound happiness washed over her.

“Please don’t go to Wuhan if it’s not really necessary.” Zhong Nanshan, a famous expert, said when the COVID-19 (新型冠状病毒肺炎) hit Wuhan. At the same time, Zhong, 84, went on a trip to Wuhan to fight the disease.

Chinese people shared his pictures and words online, saying “they believe every word Zhong says”. He gave Chinese people confidence and hope in winning this fight.

As a doctor, Zhong said his goal was always to save as many lives as possible. In 2003, when SARS hit China, he asked other doctors to send their most serious patients to him. After months of hard work, he saved thousands of lives.

Now, Zhong was once again leading an expert team to deal with the COVID-19. This new virus was more dangerous to old people, but Zhong worried little about his own safety. On Jan. 18, 2020, he took a high-speed train from Guangzhou to Wuhan. Two days later, he became the first expert to tell the public that the virus could go from person to person. On Jan. 29, he and his team spent over four hours online checking five patients.

In difficult times, many people always bring others hope and confidence. 84-year-old Zhong Nanshan is one of them.

59．From the first paragraph we can know that _________.

A．no one could go to Wuhan B．Zhong is a great hero

C．the disease is not serious D．many doctors went to Wuhan

60．The underlined word “confidence” in the second paragraph means “_________” in Chinese.

A．信心 B．财宝 C．才华 D．回答

61．How did Zhong go to Wuhan from Guangzhou?

62．What did Zhong do when he got to Wuhan two days later?

A．He checked many patients online. B．He told people the disease was dangerous.

C．He went to the hospital to work at once. D．He had a good rest and then went to work.

Good manners mean politeness. Politeness can be seen in our daily lives, such as in one’s way of dressing, speaking and standing. Everyone should pay enough attention to his manners all the time. A man with good manners is welcome everywhere and can make friends easily. On the other hand, a man with bad manners is thought to be rude and nobody wants to be friends with him. He would feel lonely and unhappy.

If you want to be a person with good manners, you should learn to use one useful expressions, such as “please”, “thank you”, “excuse me” and “sorry” on different occasions. Also, where help is needed, you should be happy to lend a hand.

Like customs（风俗）, good manners may be different from country to country. Good manners in one country may not be good in another. In order to behave like a person with good manners in different places, it is necessary for one to learn about cultures of other countries.

64．A person’s good manners can be seen from the following EXCEPT ________.

A．dressing B．speaking C．standing D．sleeping

65．A man with bad manners is thought to ________.

A．be welcome here and there B．make friends easily

B．People with good manners say “sorry” all the time.

C．People with good manners are happy to help others.

Rubbish sorting (分类) probably doesn’t sound like much fun. But there is a new mobile game that may change your opinion about it, and you might even learn something while you play it—Meet Sortee.

Meet Sortee is a puzzle game developed by Flow Studio, a UK company. It makes you think deeply about everyday objects and their meanings.

The rule of the game is quite simple. Two bins are placed on either side of the screen. Each of the bins has a label next to it and the label explains what it is for. When an object, such as a car or an apple, appears on the screen, you need to decide which bin it should be sorted into and then send it there by moving your finger.

The game seems easy enough at first. But as you move on to more levels, it gets harder. The number of bins increases to three or four and the time given gets shorter. You need to think and move faster. That can be really difficult.

There are 400 objects in total and more than 100 bins in the game. The more objects you correctly sort, the more game coins you can get. It’s a bit like working in a rubbish recycling center, but it has no bad smell.

You can download the free game from an app store, but it only lets you play the first few levels. If you want to open the next 40 levels, you need to pay 6 yuan for the full game.

69．Paragraph 3 is mainly about ________.

A．how to sort the rubbish B．where to sort the rubbish

C．how to play the game D．where to play the game

70．Which of the following can we infer from the passage?

A．You can play the full game for free. B．You can play the full game easily.

C．There are only 2 bins in each level. D．There are over 40 levels in the game.

71．The writer of the passage thinks ________.

A．the rule of the game is quite difficult

B．rubbish sorting in the game is boring

C．the rubbish smells good in a rubbish recycling center

D．the game can help people learn about rubbish sorting

72．What’s the best title of the passage?

A．A mobile game B．Rubbish sorting C．An app store D．A recycling center

E

Long long ago, there was a spider （蜘蛛）, she lived in a field. She liked this home and planned to stay there for the rest of her life.

One day, the spider caught a little bug （虫子）. The bug said, “If you let me go, I will tell you something important that will save your life. ” The spider stopped and listened carefully. “You’d better get out of this field, ” the little bug said. “The harvest （收割）is coming!”

The spider smiled and said, “What is the harvest you are talking about? You are just telling me a story.” But the little bug said, “Oh, it is true. The owner of this field is coming to harvest it soon. The machines will kill you if you stay here.”

The spider said, “I don’t believe you. I have lived here all of my life, and the owner has never come here.” And then the spider ate the little bug for lunch.

The next day was a beautiful sunny day. As the spider was going to have a rest, she saw some thick clouds moving towards her. She could hear the sound of a great machine, and she said to herself, “What would that be? Is the bug right?”

81．Dear Tom,

Thank you for your letter. I’m glad to share with you my plan for the coming summer holiday.

First of all, I will spend 7 to 10 days travelling in Sanya, Hainan Province in July. I’m going to take a plane there with my parents. I think I will have a wonderful time playing and relaxing on the beautiful beach there. Then, in August, I plan to spend at least a week doing voluntary work in the community. I can help the children with their English because I am good at English. What’s more, I can also teach kids to play soccer since I play it very well. While I am staying at home, I also have many things to do. Every day, I will spend at least 30 minutes in the morning exercising in order to keep healthy. In the afternoon, I will help my mother with housework. I will not forget to go over the lessons and do homework in the evening. On weekends, I think I will do some reading about Chinese history and culture.

I am sure I will have a wonderful and meaningful summer holiday. What about yours? Do you have any plans for your holiday?

Yours,

Li Hua
