21、Once upon a time, there were some goblins (小精灵) living in a forest. Their neighbor was a poor old man. He couldn’t move, see or hear. So, they spent a lot of time making fun of him. They showed no respect (尊敬) for his age.
When the Great Wizard (大巫师) found out about it, he was very angry. He decided to teach the goblins a lesson. He cast a spell (施咒语). From that moment, every insult (侮辱) they gave the old man actually improved him, but had the opposite effect on the goblins themselves. Of course, the goblins knew nothing about the spelling. Every time they called the man an “old fool”, he became a little younger and smarter, while the goblins became a little older and more foolish.
As time went on, these goblins were becoming very old, ugly and foolish, but they had no idea.
Finally the Great Wizard asked the goblins to look at themselves. They were too afraid to see that they turned into ugly monsters. And when they finally knew what they did, it was too late. Respecting others is not only important for the effect it has on others, but also for the effect it has upon ourselves.

22、The latest colorful 3D cartoon movie, Zootopia, has become a great success. It has not only won the hearts of children but also drawn the attention of adults.
The film tells about a rabbit called Judy who was born in carrot farmers. All her life, she's dreamed of being a police officer and finally leaves for Zootopia, a beautiful modern city, to go for her dream. It's a place where, according to her understanding, “anyone can be anything.”
At first, she is put on parking duty, because nobody believes a rabbit can become a great policewoman compared to other big and strong predator animals(食肉动物).While on duty, she gets to know a sly-looking fox, Nick . They once misunderstand each other and have words with each other. But they work together to solve a secret case successfully in the end .
From the movie we also can get a clear and powerful message: prejudice(偏见), in any form, is a terrible thing. We should say no to it. Luckily, we can see both predators and prey-predators(食草动物) can live in peace in Zootopia finally.
Anyway, Zootopia is a great piece of work with important life lessons: life's a little bit messy, and we all make mistakes;no matter what type of animal you are, change starts with you. So stick to your dream and work for it. You know, “everything is possible.”

23、When the air is polluted we wear masks to protect ourselves. What about bees and butterflies? They can’t wear masks.
New Scientist magazine recently reported findings from Dr. Ryall. His study found that air pollution is bad for pollinators (传花粉者) like bees, butterflies, bugs and other insects. They can’t smell flowers because of the pollution.
Pollinators are important. They spread pollen (花粉) among plants with flowers. This helps the flower produce seeds and fruit. Without pollinators, farms cannot make food.
To do their study, Dr. Ryall’s team built some areas. They sent some bad gas (气体) in there. In these areas, they found that only 30% pollinators flew in. Once they were there, they didn’t hand around.
“The results were much more severe than we thought,” said Dr. Ryall. “The pollution was so serious that it would be bad for the growth of flowers.”
Scientist explained that bad gas can break down the scents (气味) of flowers. This makes it hard for pollinators to find their food. Shannon, a scientist in India, pointed out if we do nothing to solve the problem of air pollution, pollinators will become fewer and fewer.
【1】Pollinators CANNOT be ________.
A.bees
B.flowers
C.butterflies
D.bugs
【2】Pollinators may ________ because of air pollution.
A.make food
B.spread less pollen
C.have more fruit
D.produce more seeds
【3】What happened to pollinators in the areas with bad gas?
A.They found food more easily.
B.They could not find each other.
C.They didn’t hang around.
D.They flew in more than usual.
【4】What does the underlined word “severe” probably mean in English?
A.serious
B.typical
C.fantastic
D.different
【5】This passage is mainly about ________.
A.bees and butterflies
B.pollen and flowers
C.bad gas and scents
D.air pollution and pollinators
