21、We often hear stories of animals rescuing people. But now someone has managed to return the favour(恩惠).

The event took place on one snowy January morning. Thomas Smith was walking his dog, Jack, in the park. “As I was walking, I just saw Jack running onto the ice towards the ducks in the middle, and then he fell into the water and couldn’t climb out,” said Smith. He realized he had no choice but to try and save his dog. “Someone else told me the lake was only one-metre deep, but it was at least twice that. I had to break my way through the 6cm ice. Finally, I got Jack by the neck and pulled him out. I don’t think I’d ever felt so cold by the time we got back to dry land. And when we got there, everyone was asking if Jack was okay — no one was particularly worried about me!”

A neighbour, Julie Brown, saw it all happen. “The dog went onto an icy lake. All of a sudden, it started to go under. There were crowds of people around, and they were all shouting and screaming. Before I knew it, the owner (Smith) was in the water forcing his way through the ice. I can’t begin to imagine how cold it was. Everyone was very nervous, but he was as cool as a cucumber — he just crawled back out, put the dog on its lead(皮带), and went home.”

Many regard him as a hero, but Mr. Smith is quitelaid-back(安详放松的) about it. “Most dog owners are the same as me. They would do what I did without a second thought. But in the future, I’m going to make sure he’s on a lead near any icy ponds.”

Pets are members of our family. Would you do the same for them?

22、   The locusts(蝗虫) in East Africa continue plaguing(造成麻烦) Asian countries such as Pakistan after they “visited” Qatar,Kuwait，and Bahrain.

On Thursday,it's reported that China will send an army of 100,000 ducks to Pakistan to help eat out the locusts there. By Thursday noon,the 100,000 ducks ready to eat locusts in Pakistan has been one of the hottest topics of Sina Weibo.

There has been much discussion on domestic social media(国内社交媒体) networks about the problem.Besides ducks,many also suggest sending hens,while some make it further by suggesting catching the locusts,to cook and eat them.

The hen and duck strategy was used in 2000 when Xinjiang suffered its worst locust plague. An army of about 700,000 hens,roosters and ducks were transported from Zhejiang Province to Xinjiang and helped defeat the locusts quickly.

However,neither the duck nor hen strategy can always be useful. Hens and ducks are good at picking locusts and eating them,but this time the locusts from Africa are mostly grown-up ones that can fly up to 2,000 meters in the sky. It is unrealistic to expect hens or ducks to eat all the locusts alone.

The best way of controlling a locust plague lies in the preventive(预防的) stage. One opinion among scientists is that the locust plague this year has much to do with the EI Nino effect of 2019,which caused heavier rainfall in East Africa,which in turn resulted in more locust eggs hatching.

The same effect caused droughts(干旱) in Australia and South America,which is an important reason why the wildfires in Australia have been so bad.It might be old talk,but it really is time to control climate change.

【1】Which animal isn't mentioned in the passage?

A.Hen. B.Rooster. C.Duck. D.Turkey.

【2】What have been one of the hottest topics of Sina Weibo?

A.The locusts have “visited” Qatar,Kuwait,and Bahrain.

B.The 100，000 ducks are ready to eat locusts in Pakistan.

C.The locusts in East Africa continue plaguing Asian countries.

D.Africa would send a lot of army men to Pakistan on Thursday.

【3】What other advice do people have to control a locust plague according to the passage?

A.Sending roosters to Pakistan.

B.Making less discussion about the problem.

C.Catching the locusts，to cook and eat them.

D.Using domestic social media to solve the problem.

【4】What does the underlined word “It” refer to according to the passage?

A.The hen and duck strategy.

B.Picking locusts by humans.

C.Flying up to 2,000 meters to catch locusts.

D.Controlling a locust plague.
