25、Do teenagers in small villages do chores at home? How about the teenagers in big cities? To know the answers, we made a survey last month. We asked 4,000 teenagers in China. Half of them come from big cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. The others are from small villages. We made a chart(图表)according to our survey. Let’s have a look at it.
We can find out that teenagers in small villages do more chores than those in big cities. Maybe it is because they live a harder life. We will give our advice to parents in big cities. We think parents should give their children some chores to do because it’s a good chance for teenagers to learn how to take care of themselves.
根据短文内容,判断下列各句正(T)误(F)。
【1】People wanted to know if teenagers in small villages do chores at home, so they made the survey.
【2】4,000 teenagers from big cities were asked some questions to make a survey.
【3】More than 3,000 teenagers take out the rubbish.
【4】The number of teenagers in big cities is more than that in small villages in doing the dishes.

26、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
