21、   On Saturday morning, every boy in town was happy, except Tom Sawyer. Tom’s aunt said he had to paint the fence (围墙). It was very big! Tom painted a small part and then had a rest. Soon some boys came along and made fun of him. Just then, he had a wonderful idea. He picked up his brush and went back to work.

Ben came happily with an apple in one hand. “I’m going swimming,” said Ben. “Do you want to come? Oh, but you have to work, don’t you?” “Work?” Tom said. “I don’t think that this is work. It’s fun. Does a boy get a chance like this every day?”

Ben thought about this. Tom went on painting. Ben was watching Tom’s every move. He was getting more and more interested. Then he said, “Tom, will you let me do some painting?”

Tom said, “No, Ben, I can’t. You see, Aunt Polly wants it to be done perfectly. I’m the only one that can do it right.”

“Oh, please, Tom,” begged Ben. “I’ll be really careful. I’ll give you my apple.”

“Well, all right, Ben,” said Tom. “But you must be careful.”

He gave Ben his brush with worry on his face but joy in his heart. He sat down under the tree, and started to eat Ben’s apple.

23、   When humans try to make the best use of the nature, it also fights against us at the same time. As a result, many natural treasures are disappearing(消失) quietly these years.

The Himalayan Glaciers (冰山)

The Himalayan glaciers are melting(融化) faster than ever at speed of 33-49 feet every year because of the rising temperature. Melting glaciers could bring too much water to India, China, and Nepal and break down living places for lots of animals. And for mountain climb, they may face more dangerous challenges.

Yangtze Area

Our cute pandas are living in the forests of the Yangtze area of China. Their home used to be beautiful and big. But humans cut down too many trees, so their living areas are becoming smaller and smaller. Food is also less and less. The Three Gorges Dam(三峡大坝), the largest dam in history, is also breaking down the Yangtze River area.

Amazon Rain Forest

________ However, rising temperature and over tree-cutting are changing the forest's role into carbon sink(碳汇集地), making 30-60% of the rainforest into dry places. Scientists show the forest could disappear completely by 2050.

24、   A new series of Chinese Maths textbooks was published in the UK following the success of the previous edition, with an expert saying Chinese Maths textbooks are generally more difficult for UK students. However, new Chinese Maths textbooks teach UK students learning skills.

Yi Ke Yi Lian, or One Lesson, One Exercise, is a series of popular textbooks for primary and junior high schools in Shanghai. For about 20 years, this series has helped students to practice what they have learned in class. This summer, the Maths textbook series was published in the UK.

The British version has 11 volumes (册), as there are 11 grades from primary school to high school in the UK. The publishers cut out part of the content in the Chinese version to go with the curriculum setting (课程安排) there. They also changed some terms (术语) and background knowledge. But the overall difficulty level is the same.

The move follows the British government’s efforts to learn from Shanghai’s Maths teaching methods starting from last year. In the 2012 Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA.国际学生评估项目), Shanghai students got the first place on the Maths exam while British students got 24th place.

In September, the British government invited 60 of Shanghai’s top Maths teachers to British schools to share their teaching experience. A number of teachers from the UK also visited Shanghai for experience.

“It seems that the Shanghai teaching methodology (方法) uses resources much more effectively,” said Liz Truss, a government education officer. We have stagnated (停滞) in our Maths performance for the last 15 years, and it’s time for us to learn and apply good practices.”

【1】The British publishers ________ before publishing the textbooks.

A.added more content to the books

B.changed the curriculum setting

C.changed some of the book’s background knowledge

D.changed the overall difficulty level of the books

【2】In the 2012 PISA, students from which country got the first place on the Maths exam?

A.The UK. B.China. C.Japan. D.The USA.

【3】What’s the main idea of the passage?

A.The UK is using Chinese Maths books. B.How to improve UK kids’ Maths skills.

C.Lots of practice can make a difference. D.China has the best teaching methodology.
