21、In only a few months, a disease has completely changed the world. Thousands of people have died and millions of people have fallen ill. For the rest of us, our way of life has become totally different.

From New York to London, the busiest pubs and theaters have been left empty. International flights are being canceled. People are working from home. These are all aimed at controlling the spread of the COVID-19. However, all of these changes have also led to another unexpected benefit: a drop in carbon emissions（碳排放）. Compared with this time last year, levels of pollution in New York have been reduced by nearly 50 percent.

So will the COVID-19 turn out to save the environment?

Kimberly Nicholas is an environmental scientist in Sweden. To answer that question, she says, you have to find out why emissions have dropped. Take transport as an example. It makes up 23 percent of global carbon emissions. These emissions have fallen as people are staying at home. Nicholas says they will remain lowered until the COVID-19 is totally brought under control. But what will happen after this outbreak（爆发）is over?

“It’s hard to say,” Nicholas says. While staying at home, many people have realized the importance of family. In the short term, some people will still avoid travel and spend time with their families instead. However, some people are feeling bored after not being out for a long time. They are eager to return to their old habits and may even travel more often. If that happens, transport-related emissions could come back.

But Nicholas says she and many other scientists have seen hope. The outbreak of the COVID-19 shows that at the national and international level, if we need to take action, we can. When we look out for each other, we all can make a big difference.

【1】From New York to London, people are working from home in order to ________.

A．save time

B．make less carbon emissions

C．save money

D．control the spread of the COVID-19

【2】According to Kimberly Nicholas, will the COVID-19 save the Earth in the end?

A．Yes, it will save the Earth in the end.

B．No, it won’t save the Earth in the end.

C．The COVID-19 will only cause more pollution in the end.

D．It’s hard to say whether it will save the Earth or not.

【3】According to Nicholas, some people will still avoid travel for some time after the COVID-19 outbreak is over because ________.

A．they want to continue to save the Earth

B．they have lost their interest in traveling

C．they have realized the importance of family

D．they don’t have enough money to travel abroad

【4】Why has Nicholas seen hope?

A．Because she has discovered a new method of saving the Earth.

B．Because she has seen that people can take action if they need to.

C．Because many people have changed their attitudes towards family.

D．Because more and more people have realized the seriousness of climate change.

【5】Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A．New York has shown a record drop in pollution after the COVID-19 broke out.

B．Nobody has been killed by the COVID-19.

C．Most people will travel more often after the COVID-19 outbreak is over.

D．The COVID-19 would make the Earth cleaner.

23、Dear Simon,

I am glad to know that you have joined your school reading club. I enjoy reading, too. I want to introduce to you my favorite novel, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (《查理和巧克力工厂》).

The novel tells the story of a boy named Charlie Bucket and his adventures (冒险经历) in Mr. Wonka's chocolate factory. The Bucket family is very poor. Charlie loves Wonka chocolate bars. But he only receives one chocolate bar a year on his birthday.

One day, Mr. Wonka decides to open up his factory to five lucky children. They can find golden tickets in their Wonka chocolate bars. On his birthday, Charlie's family all hope that his chocolate bar will contain a golden ticket. But sadly, it doesn't. Three days later, Charlie finds a coin on the ground. He buys some chocolate bars with it. To his great surprise, he finds a golden ticket!

Charlie goes to the factory with his grandfather. It is an amazing place. There is even a chocolate river! One by one, the other four children on the tour cause trouble. They are all taken away. Charlie is the only child who doesn't cause any trouble. Mr. Wonka tells him that he wins the contest.

Do you know what Charlie wins? You will find the answer in the novel. Do share your feelings about the story with me when you finish reading it. I'm looking forward to your reply. I hope you will like this novel.

With love,

24、Here is some information about the Yangtze River Dolphin. It makes its home in the Yangtze River. Over 20 million years ago, the Yangtze River Dolphin left the sea, swam up the Yangtze River and has lived there ever since. It has smaller eyes than other kinds of dolphins and the small size helps to protect its eyes. However, because it has such small eyes, it cannot use its eyes to look for food. Instead, this kind of dolphin uses sound waves (声波) to look for food. This makes it so unusual.

In the past, there were thousands of dolphins in the Yangtze River, but today, not many people can see the dolphins. The number has decreased greatly. Scientists say that the number of the dolphins has gone down because the population (人口) along the Yangtze River has gone up. They also say that the new dam (大坝) across the river is also making the dolphins die because they don’t have food to eat. Scientists have tried different ways to save this “panda in the water”, but nothing has helped. What would you do to save this kind of dolphin if you had a chance?
