Without ants or flies in your house, it might sound great. However, the results may be out of imagination.The number of insects has dropped by half in the past few years, according to a British biologist Dave Coulson. You may think small insects are not important. But in fact they are the main part of the species(物种) on Earth.Insects are indeed on the way to extinction, according to the first review of insect population. The researchers say the main reason for this is the use of pesticides(杀虫剂) because they destroy insects' living areas. Also, weather change is another important cause.“Unless we change our ways of producing food, insects will go down the way to extinction in a few years," the researchers wrote in the review. “This will have huge influences on the planet's ecosystem(生态系统).”We need insects to pollinate(授粉) crops. They also break down(分解)dead plants and animals, which can keep the soil healthy. Without insects, many animals would have nothing to eat and die of hunger. Then, the ecosystem would be off balance.“If the number of insect species keep dropping, this will have bad influences on both Earth's ecosystem and the survival of us humans," said one of the writers of the review. “The first step to stop this is to let more people understand the values of the natural world," he suggests. “The best place to start is from our children, who should realize environmental protection from an early age.21. The underlined word “extinction” means “_______”.A. pollution   B. death    C. harm    D. protection22. Paragraph 5 is mainly about _______.A. the reason for producing food   B. the problem of animals and plantsC. the way to keep soil healthy    D. the importance of insects23. From the passage, we can know _______.A. insects may destroy the balance of the ecosystemB. ants and flies are the main part of the species on EarthC. humans' actions influence the number of insectsD. weather change has little influence on insectsBOne teacher praises a student by saying “You're so smart!" Another teacher says, “You must have worked really hard at this!" Which student does better in school? Studies show that students who hear the words of the second teacher will do better. Those students are learning that their effort is important.Psychologists (心理学家) looked at what students did after they were given different types of praise. Some students were told that they were good at a task. They didn't try very hard the next time. Other students were told that they had worked hard at a task. They worked even harder the next time. The first group of students was learning that they had a set amount of skill. They didn't think they could do any better. This is called a fixed mindset (思维模式) . The second group was learning that they could do better if they kept trying. This is called a growth mindset. People who have a growth mindset believe that the brain can grow; people can do better and learn new skills. If they work hard, they can be successful.How can teachers and parents help students succeed? They can focus mainly on effort and not simply on ability. When students succeed, teachers and parents should praise the actual work rather than intelligence(智力) or talent. When students fail, they should be told how they can do better. Teachers, parents and students need to value effort, not intelligence.Beliefs of Fixed and Growth Mindsets Fixed MindsetGrowth MindsetThings you’re born with that cannot changeThings you can grow and improve with hard workSomething to avoid—could show lack of skillSomething important—leads to successThings to avoid—in case you aren’t good enoughThings that help you learn24.

Before the reform, he placed a log（原木）at the gate and promised, “If someone can move the log, he will get a reward.” No one believed him until someone moved the log, Shang Yang really gave him a reward.Do you know Lu Ban lock? It is a removable toy. Lu Ban made it for his son. His son studied all night before opening it. He also invented many tools and weapons（武器）.Li Bing was an expert in water projects. He set up many water projects. Dujiangyan is the most famous. It made water helpful to the people.Once, an official fell unconscious（昏迷的）. Everyone thought he was dead except Bian Que. Bian Que felt his weak pulse and said. “He will wake up in three days.” Two days later, the official woke up. Everyone was amazed.When Bo Ya played, even the horses looked up, listened to his music and stopped eating. Bo Ya’s friend, Zhong Ziqi, understood his music. They liked each other.

And many of these stratagems can still be put into practice in many fields, such as war, politics, business and even daily life. The following are four of them. Let's enjoy the charm of our traditional culture.Stratagem One When a thief is in your house, you’d better shut your doors at once in order to prevent him from running away.Why? For our ancient Chinese, there are two reasons. First, if you let your enemy run away, he will come back. Second, once your enemy succeeds in running away, it is dangerous for you to chase him.Stratagem Two This stratagem is from a poem by Du Fu, a famous poet of the Tang Dynasty. A line in the poem reads: “To shoot the man on horse-back, shoot his horse first; To catch the robbers, capture their leader first.”In a war if you want to beat the enemy, attack the leader first. Once the leader is caught, their forces will break down and fall into chaos.Stratagem Three Chinese always believe that tigers are more powerful when they are in the mountains. Once they leave mountains, they will become less powerful. And there are a few Chinese sayings linking tigers with mountains.The stratagem advises you not to directly attack an enemy in his own area. Instead, you should try to make him leave his place first, making him lose the geographical advantage. In this way, your enemy will be beaten easily.Stratagem Four Experienced fishers all know how to prevent a hooked fish breaking the line. Move the fish line from side to side to gradually make the fish calm down and get tired, and then you can catch it easily.In the same way, once your enemy is trapped, he will often struggle, trying to run away. Leave him the false feeling that he still has a chance to run away. When he gets tired and loses his guard, you can capture him with less difficulty.30. Which of the following describes Stratagem Two?A. Shutting the door to catch the thief.B. Catching your enemy's leader first.C. Letting the enemy off to catch him later.D. Tricking the tiger out of the mountain.31. From the stratagems above, we know that _______.A. it is wise for you to attack enemies in their own placesB. it is impossible for people to make others lose their guardC. it is dangerous to give your enemies a chance to run awayD. it is better to shoot the man on horse-back first not the horse32. Where can we probably read Thirty-Six Stratagems?A. In a guide book.B. In an art book.C. In a science book.D. In a classical book.第四部分 信息还原(共5小题;每小题1分，满分5分)请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Every year, millions of birds are killed or hurt when they fly into buildings.
