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、We live in a fast-paced, technology-packed world where we spend most of our time indoors playing computer games or using social media. But do you remember when you spent most of your time outside, running, playing, and laughing with your friends?

Leaving your tech behind may seem difficult, but if you lose yourself in nature, you’ll probably forget all about it. Scientist Albert Einstein once said, “Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better.”

In the US, June is Great Outdoors Month. They want to get more kids outside to have active fun once again. Former US President Barack Obama wrote in a paper declaring (宣告) the day in 2012, “Nature offers each of us the chance to get active, discover something, and make our relationships with family and friends strong.”

The US Union Creek Resort website noted, “We all know how fast life can be, so it’s never too soon or too late to create happy memories that we will cherish and share forever.”

Apart from making us feel happy, science supports the idea that outdoor activities can cut down stress. “Fresh air and sunlight have the largest advantages,” wrote Susanne Preston, a mental health expert at South University, US. “With increased exposure (暴露) to natural sunlight, incidents of seasonal affective disorder (季节性情绪失调) fall and the vitamin D in people’s skin helps to relax their moods.”

What could be a better way to help out with daily stress than to enjoy the beauty of the great outdoors?

【1】What does the underlined word cherish mean?

A．Interest.

B．Appreciate.

C．Cheer.

D．Spread.

【2】What does Susanne Preston tell us?

A．There are scientific reasons why outdoor activities are good for us.

B．We should cherish the chance to take part in outdoor activities.

C．We can control our moods while taking part in outdoor activities.

D．Outdoor activities increase seasonal affective disorder.

【3】What’s the main idea of the last paragraph?

A．Leaving your tech behind may seem difficult.

B．It's nice to enjoy the beauty of the great outdoors.

C．There is only one way to escape daily stress.

D．We must stay at home to escape daily stress.

【4】What do we know from the passage?

A．People nowadays spend lots of time running or playing outdoors.

B．You’ll probably lose your tech if you lose yourself in nature.

C．Nature can help us have better relationships with family and friends.

D．Nature will always help you understand everything.

26、Once there was a small boy called Jason who belonged to a poor family.

27、Studying Abroad

Nowadays, studying abroad becomes popular in China. Many rich parents would rather send their children abroad to receive education than let them be educated in China.

There are advantages for people to study abroad. Firstly, he can use the foreign language in his daily life so that he can make great improvement in the language, because they have better chances than any other to practice their skills. While studying in a foreign country, he will meet many foreigners and it is possible to make friends from all over the world. This is not only exciting, but also could lead to important overseas contacts(海外联系) in his career(事业). He can get familiar with the latest knowledge in science. In this way, it is possible that he can open his mind.

Of course, attending schools abroad may bring about a lot of problems. The most serious problem is language barrier (障碍). Most of the students who go abroad don’t have enough skills in the local language. As a result, they will find it difficult to understand what the teachers say. They may also run into trouble in dealing with different kinds of situations. So, if you are given a chance to study abroad, you must consider the both sides of the matter carefully before making up your mind.

28、  Do you always agree with your teacher? Sometimes you might have a different a 【1】to a Maths problem．Or maybe they scold(责备) you when you don’t think you did anything w【2】．

What do you do then? A story on sina．com said that more and more students choose to s【3】out and sometimes even shout(喊叫) at their teachers．

It’s i【4】 for students to say what they think．In the past, few Chinese students dared(敢于) to speak d 【5】 to their teacher．It was an unwritten rule(不成文的规定) that what the teachers said is always right．But now students are b 【6】to think more of themselves and dare to say what they think right．

But students should choose the right way to speak out．We should respect(尊重) teachers．They are older than you and know more things．So, never use i【7】words when speaking to them．And don’t make them u【8】when you don’t agree with them．

Try to find the right time to talk to your teacher．For e【9】, talk about the problem after class．R【10】to talk about it in a friendly way．

29、When my dad finally finished the triathlon (铁人三项) in Montauk, the crowd cheered. It showed me how his great effort _________ off and it excited my curiosity. I wondered whether a small boy of my size could _________ something like that. I found myself saying this out loud and my father overheard me. He encouraged me and said I could train with him.

Training with my dad _________ out to be very challenging. We would get up early for a morning jog, or go for a swim in the pool after school. After a few weeks of training, I signed up for my first triathlon. Before the competition, I nervously waited for the gun. When someone _________ the gun, I was off, swimming towards the distant buoy (浮标) that marked my turn. I finished the half-mile swim and ran towards my bike. I was dripping _________, trying to get on it. Once on my bike, I experienced a particular excitement of _________. I went through the transition zone (转换区) again and switched to my running shoes. At the start of the run part of the triathlon, my legs already felt like they were made of cement (水泥) .

For me, the real competition began during the run, because now I could see each _________ as a goal. No matter my position in the field, each racer was either following me or being followed. The run part of the race boiled down to pain tolerance. “Shut up, legs”, one of my favorite sayings, kept me from thinking about the _________ feeling. Then I crossed the finish line. I took a breath and then began a celebration with the other finishers. The sense of achievement was there for all of us.

Looking back, I remember the small boy on that day in Montauk who thought he couldn’t do it. Now, that same boy is not only a huge fan, but also a training partner.
