24、Thirty years ago, Lake Ponkapog in Hartwell, New Jersey, was full of life. Many birds and animals lived beside the water, which was full of fish. Now there are few birds, animals, and fish.

The lake water is polluted (污染的). It is in a color of dirty brown, and it is filled with strange plants.

How does this happen? First we must think about how water gets into Lake Ponkapog. When it rains, water comes into the lake from all around. In the past there were forests all around Lake Ponkapog so the rain water was clean.

Now there are many homes around the lake. People often use chemicals (化学品) in their gardens. They use other chemicals inside their houses for cleaning or killing insects (昆虫). There are also many businesses. Businesses use chemicals in their machines or shops. Other chemicals fall onto the ground from cars or trucks. When it rains, the rain water picks up all the chemicals from homes and businesses and then carries them into the lake. They pollute the water and kill the animals.

Boats on the lake are also a problem. Lake Ponkapog is a popular place for motorboats. But oil and gas (油和汽)  from boats often get into the lake. So more bad chemicals go into the water this way.

People in Hartwell are worried. They love their lake and want to save it. Will it be possible? A clean lake must have clean rainwater going into it. Clean rainwater is possible only if people are more careful about chemicals at home and at work. They must also be more careful about gas and oil and other chemicals on the ground. And they mustn't use motorboats any more on the lake. All these may change people's lives. Only then can Lake Ponkapog be a beautiful, clean lake again.

【1】In the past, the water in Lake Ponkapog was made clean by ______.

A. forests   B. rain   C. birds   D. fish

【2】Chemicals from homes and businesses ______.

A. are always clean

B. can help the animals

C. are good for the lake

D. get into the rainwater

【3】Cleaner rainwater will mean ______.

A. more boats on the lake

B. more dirty things in the lake

C. a cleaner lake

D. a dirtier lake

【4】To save Lake Ponkapog, people need to ______.

A. be more careful about chemicals

B. use less water

C. grow fewer plants in the gardens

D. use more motorboats on the lake

【5】The passage is about ______.

A. boats on Lake Ponkapog

B. why the water is dirty in Lake Ponkapog

C. clean rainwater

D. dirty lakes

25、

Nowadays many people go camping for fun. Camping can be enjoyed in the backyard or deep in the wilderness. Whether camping for one night or several weeks, being prepared is the key.

Endless fun

Once the tent, your base, is put up and the fire area is prepared, there is lots to do. Fishing and hiking are just some of the fun activities. At night, campers often sit by the fire, talking and telling stories. If the weather turns rainy, campers usually wait it out in their tents, reading, drawing or playing games.

Required equipment

Shelter, bedclothes, food and water are necessary. Deciding what else you will need depends on the kind of camping trip you are planning and the length of your trip. Pack light if you are going to carry equipment any distance. Clothing should be prepared enough to protect against weather and insects. A hat, whistle, bug repellent (驱虫剂) and rope may come in handy. Don’t forget a flashlight, a compass, cookers and a first-aid box.

Various tents

There are many types and styles of tents. You should choose your tent based on your needs. If you are camping alone in the backyard, a simple lean-to or small tent may do. If you are camping with your family, a larger cabin tent or camping trailer may be best.

Proper locations

Where you decide to set up your campsite is very important. Look for a high and dry location if it rains. The ground should be level because hills and rocks are uncomfortable to sleep on. A sunny exposure (接触) in the morning with shade in the afternoon is ideal.

5

26、Think of life as a game in which you are playing with five balls in the air. You name them work, family, health, friends and spirit and you keep all of them in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber(橡胶) ball. If you drop it, it will bounce( 反弹 )back.

But the other four balls, family, health, friends and spirit, are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be broken. They will never be the same. You must understand that and try to have balance in your life. How?

Don’t look down on your worth(价值) by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different and each of us is special.

Don’t let other people set goals for you. Only you know what is best to yourself.

Don’t give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.

Don’t be afraid of difficulties. Be brave!

Don’t run through life so fast that you forget not only where you have been, but also where you are going.

Don’t be afraid to learn. Knowledge is a treasure(宝藏) you can always carry easily.
