26、You may have heard the saying “The Yangtze River is China’s mother river.” It’s almost 6,400 kilometers long. As the world’s third-longest river, it covers one-fifth of China’s land area. The Yangtze River Economic Zone (长江经济带) covers eleven provinces and municipalities (市，自治区), making up about forty percent of China’s total population and GDP.

On December 26, China passed the Yangtze River Protection Law, which came into force on March 1, 2021. It is the first law to protect a waterway in China.

The mother river is in great need of protection because something is wrong with it. For example, because of overfishing and water pollution, the river’s Chinese paddlefish has died out there. There’s also decertified land and soil pollution near the river.

According to the law, fishing will not be allowed in all of the Yangtze’s natural waterways, including its major tributaries (支流) and lakes. Those who are caught fishing will be fined (罚款) 50,000 to 500,000 yuan.

Digging (挖掘) sand will be strictly limited (限制) in the river. Many companies are digging sand along the river. However, this has led to lower water levels on the river, which has caused the river’s water to decline.

Companies and factories along the river will need to focus on green development. If their activities do harm to the waterways, they will be moved away, the law says.

【1】What does the first paragraph tell us about the Yangtze River?

A．How old it is.

B．Why it’s important.

C．What problems it has.

D．Where it joins the sea.

【2】What do we know about the Yangtze River Protection Law?

A．It was passed on March 1, 2021.

B．it came into force about ten years ago.

C．it has increased the population of the area.

D．It’s the first law to protect a waterway in China.

【3】What does the underlined word “decline” in Paragraph 5 mean?

A．Disappear.

B．Become less.

C．Be hard to test.

D．Be easy to control.

【4】According to the passage, which is true about protecting the river?

A．People can’t fish in the river’s major tributaries.

B．Digging sand will not be allowed in the river anymore.

C．Companies along the river will be moved to other places.

D．Anyone who causes pollution will be fined at least 50,000 yuan.

27、选择最佳答案

Dear Emma,

Your problem is like a circle. The harder you study, the less time you have to make friends and the less friendly you look to your classmates. The fewer friends you have, the harder you study to make yourself feel better.

Try to break this bad circle. Perhaps you are afraid of meeting new people, because you are too shy or too serious. You are not. Everyone has a fun side. Push your shy side away and show your classmates how much fun you can be.

Look at your classmates. Are there any people with whom you feel you have a lot in common?

First, smile at your classmates. Do this as often as you can, until your classmates become used to your smiles and smile in return.

Next, talk to your classmates. Do this between classes or during your lunch break. You may find it easier to start by talking to people when they are alone.

Perhaps you could ask a classmate about your studies. They are likely to respond (回应) in a very positive way. People like to feel important and helpful.

There must be someone else in your class who is also quiet. It might be easier to try to talk with him or her. Your problem is mainly about confidence. Smile first, talk next and slowly you will make friends. Once you have more confidence, you can make as many friends as you want.

Editor
