21、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.

22、Dear Dongdong,
I have been in Hong Kong for a whole week and I will stay here for another week.
Hong Kong is really a great place to visit. There’s so much to see and to do here. And I have done so many wonderful things.
I’ve taken the cable car( 缆车 ) to the Peak Galleria ( 山顶广场 ). I’ve been to Hong Kong Racing Museum. I’ve learned a lot about horse racing there. I’ve also visited Ladies’ Street. In the street I bought some beautiful clothes for my mother. Last night I went to a Chinese concert. Chinese traditional music has always been my favourite. This morning I went to Ocean Park and watched the dolphin(海豚)show there. The dolphins are so clever. They can jump from the water to touch a ball, sway (摇摆) their bodies to music, kiss people and even do maths. Mr Host is going to take me to an Italian film festival in Hong Kong Cultural Centre tomorrow. I’m so excited because I have never seen an Italian film before.
That’s all. Hope to hear from you soon.
Yours
Daming

24、Does your school have charity sales? Our school had one a few days ago. Students brought many things for the sale. There were novels, magazines, toys, cartoon posters and beautiful candles. Most things were almost brand-new. Many students and teachers bought things at the sale. Wu Zhongyue, a Grade 8 student, found that novels for kids were much cheaper. Four copies written by Zheng Yuanjie cost her 10 yuan. Pan Liqi spent 20 yuan on posters and hoped the money would go to poor kids. At last the sale raised about 6,000 yuan.
The purpose of the sale is to help the children in Africa. Every day hundreds of them die because they have diseases or don’t have enough to eat. First, there is no work for the children’s parents, so they have no money to buy food or medicine. Second, the governments in many African countries are too poor to care for the poor. The land and the weather are bad for farming. There are many organizations trying to help these poor people. The organization we are trying to help, the Feed Africa Fund, spends millions of dollars every year on food for poor people in Africa. This money comes from people like you—kind, generous people who do not want to see children die from hunger.
【1】At the sale, Wu Zhongyue bought ________.
A.toys
B.magazines

D.cartoon posters
【2】How much did the charity sale collect in all?
A.10 yuan.
B.20 yuan.
C.About 6,000 yuan.
D.Millions of dollars.
【3】The underlined word “brand-new” in the passage means “_________”.
A.全新的
B.半新的

D.破旧的
【4】What do the African children need most according to the passage?

C.Medicine and books.
D.Food and toys.
【5】The money we raised at the sale will go to ________.
