21、An old tree tell you…
Dear human beings,
I hesitated a lot before writing this letter. All I want to do is to ask you to have a look at your life. But I’m not sure whether or not you’ll pay attention to me.
I’m a pretty old tree. I’m eighty years old, so I’ve seen much of the world. We’ve lived on Earth with you for millions of years. Each day we release oxygen and remove harmful gas so that
you have pure air, we cool the air so that you don’t have to run your air-conditioners all the time, we help prevent the Earths soil from being washed away, and above all, we give all kinds of fruits, nuts, beans, as well as wood to you.
But we are in great danger now because of you. You are, in fact, destroying us at a terrible speed. You are burning and cutting down millions of us each year, but you’re not planting enough. For every tree being planted today, 30 trees are being cut down. What would you do if all of us died? Perhaps you would die, too. Without us, you wouldn’t get the ingredients (成分) for some of your important medicines, you wouldn’t have enough materials for buildings, furniture, paper products, and your cities would look ugly. Moreover, air pollution and noise pollution would become more and more serious, and your life would turn nasty…
Well, the list could go on and on forever, but I think I should stop. The best thing for you to do now is to stop your bad practice. Please stop destroying us and start protecting the environment, because we are the best fighters against pollution and we are your best friends!
I wish the best for you, and good luck!
Your friend,
An old tree

22、 Should children do chores? Some people think that children should not do chores, but many experts believe that children can benefit(受益)from doing chores. They can learn problem-solving and independence from doing chores.
However, most experts agree that the chores should fit the children. For example, young children shouldn’t wash the dishes or take out the rubbish. However, they can do the chores like picking up toys, putting books in the bookcase…to keep the home tidy. In fact, young children usually would like to do chores because they like doing what Mom or Dad does, and that helps them feel more grown-up.
As the children grow older, many experts advise giving them more difficult chores like washing the dishes and walking the dog. However, children usually do not want to do the chores. The middle school students may spend more than two hours a night on their homework. Perhaps more chores on the weekend, not on weekdays can be helpful.
【1】Which chore is the best for 5-year-old Lisa?
A.Washing the dishes.

【2】Why would young children like to do chores?

23、 Choose the best answer(根据短文内容,选择最恰当的答案):
For years I wanted a flower garden. I’d spend hours thinking of different things I could plant that would look nice together.
But then we had Matthew, and Marvin, and the twins, Alisa, and Alan, and then Helen. Five children. I was too busy raising them to grow a garden.
Money was tight(拮据的), as well as time. Often when my children were little, one of them would want something that cost too much, and I’d have to say, “Do you see a money tree in the yard? Money doesn’t grow on trees, you know.”
Finally, all five got through high school and college and were off on their own. I started thinking again about having a garden.
Then, one spring morning, on Mother’s Day, I was working in my kitchen. Suddenly, I looked out of the window and there was a new tree, planted right in my yard. I thought it must be a weeping willow(垂柳), because I saw things blowing around on all its branches. Then I put my glasses on — and I couldn’t believe what I saw.
There was a money tree in my yard!
I went to have a look. It was true! There were dollar bills, one hundred of them, taped all over that tree. There was also a note among them, “Thank you for your time, Mom. We love you.”
Later, my children bought me tools, a sunflower stepping stone and gardening books.
That was three years ago. My garden’s now very pretty, just like I wanted. When I go out and take care of my flowers, I don’t seem to miss my children as much as I once did. It feels like they’re right there with me.
I live in a city where winters are long and cold, and summers are too short. But every year now, when winter sets in, I look out of my window and think of the flowers, I’ll see next spring in my little garden. I think about what my children did for me, and I get tears in my eyes — every time.
I’m still not sure that money grows on trees. But I know love does!

24、 F1 is a very fast car race. It is one of the most popular sports in the world. The drivers go at over 300 kilometers an hour every race. But F1 cars didn’t always go so fast.
In 1895, the first F1 race began in France. During that race, it took the drivers 48 hours to finish 580 kilometers. In 1901, the best drivers had an average(平均) speed of 100 kilometers an hour. Modern grand prix(奖品) F1 racing began in 1950 in Britain. “Grand prix” is French. It means “large prize”. Today, 12 teams and 24 drivers race to get points. There are races at different tracks(路线) all over the world from March to October every year. There are also F2 and F3 racing. But the cars are slower and less high-tech.
During a F1 race, drivers have to make several stops to change tyres(轮胎) and put more petrol in their cars. A team of people do these tasks together to make the stops short. Some people lift the car up, others change the tyres. While this person works on the tyres, another person puts petrol in the car and a different person cleans the driver’s helmet. One more person talks to the driver about how to win. It’s amazing that all those people finish it in just a few seconds!
During 100-meter races, people count the players’ speed by 1/100th(0. 01) of a second, for example 10.81 seconds. In the world of car racing, however, the race has to be timed to 1/1000th (0. 001) of a second. That is 50 times faster than the time for a blink(眨眼).
F1 cars look very colorful. First, cars of different teams have different colors. Then there are a lot of advertisements on the cars.
【1】The drivers in F1 races can reach the speed of ____ an hour.
A.100 kilometers B.over 300 kilometers
C.580 kilometers D.1000 kilometers
【2】Modern grand prix F1 racing first began ____.
A.in France B.in Britain C.in 1895 D.in 1901
【3】Today F1 race is held ____.
A.at different tracks all the year round B.every month all over the world
C.from March to October every year D.in France and Britain every year
【4】When the driver makes stops in a race, a team of people will ____.
A.help him make the stops short B.lift the car up and change the tyres
C.put petrol in the car and clean the car D.clean the driver’s helmet
【5】In the world of car racing, the race has to be timed to ____.
A.second B.10. 81 second
C.1/100th of a second D.1/1000th of a second
25、Ⅱ.综合填空
Mrs Li has a small garden.She grows some vegetables in it.When summer comes,they【1】 (look) very nice and fresh.
One evening,Mrs Li looked at her vegetables and said,“Tomorrow I will 【2】 (pick) them and then cook them.” But the next morning,her daughter ran into the house and said,“Mum,come 【3】 (quick)!Some ducks of our neighbour’s(邻居) are eating our vegetables!” When she arrived,the ducks ate up all the vegetables!Mrs Li 【4】 (feel) sad.Her neighbour was really sorry.
