It is very small. The government of Puerto Rico takes care of the island and has made it a natural reserve. That means the island’s animals and plants are protected from being hurt by people. Mona Island is different from most places because only park rangers (管理员) are allowed to live there. Their job is to keep Mona Island beautiful and make sure that the land and animals are safe. One thing that most people enjoy is getting to see the Mona Island iguana (鬣蜥蜴). Almost 2,000 iguanas live on Mona Island. People also come to the island to get a close-up view of many kinds of fish and other sea life. The water is almost transparent. Through the clear water, divers (潜水者) can see the bright colours of fish. Visitors can also explore caves (探索洞穴). Some of the caves even have paintings and drawings on the walls. After a full day of fun activities, visitors can see the stars in the huge sky. Because the island is far away from other places, it is surrounded (包围) by darkness, and the stars are easier to see. Watching the stars is a perfect end to a perfect day. 4. What do park rangers on Mona Island do? A. Offer some help to visitors. B. Protect the land and animals. C. Play with animals on Mona Island. D. Manage the government of Puerto Rico. 5. What does the underlined word “transparent” in Para 2 probably mean in Chinese? A. 透明的 B. 黑暗的 C. 模糊的 D. 饮用的 6.

At the suggestion of New American Pathways, they started a bake sale to raise money. Whenever they had time, they would bake cakes by themselves or called for families and neighbours to join them to help. With their great work, they ended up getting 240 schoolbags. They also hope to inspire (激励) others to make a difference no matter (不论) how small it is. “No matter how small you might feel your voice is,” Lily told Daily Viral News, “just know that you can make a difference. You just have to go for it.” 8. What do Lily and Evie have in common? A. They are at the same age. B. They both work in the UK. C. They share the same hobby. D. They are both Afghan refugees. 9.

It was not easy to make the trip so I could hardly believe I was in Singapore when I got off the plane. Many places in Singapore interested us. First, we visited Singapore Zoo and Jurong Bird Park. Both the places were very large and many animals lived there. So we had to spend a day seeing all the animals. However, the most unforgettable event was the bird show in Jurong Bird Park.

I thought that humans should protect birds and live in peace with them. Their existence (存在) shouldn’t be for entertaining (娱乐) humans. Second, after spending a week visiting some places of interest in Singapore, my sister and I decided to take part in an English course. The students there had to speak English during the lessons. We thought it would be a good chance for us to improve our English. We really didn’t want to waste it. Finally, we finished the course in a week and we made great progress in our English.

The government of Puerto Rico takes care of the island and has made it a natural reserve. That means the island’s animals and plants are protected from being hurt by people. Mona Island is different from most places because only park rangers (管理员) are allowed to live there. Their job is to keep Mona Island beautiful and make sure that the land and animals are safe. One thing that most people enjoy is getting to see the Mona Island iguana (鬣蜥蜴). Almost 2,000 iguanas live on Mona Island. People also come to the island to get a close-up view of many kinds of fish and other sea life. The water is almost transparent. Through the clear water, divers (潜水者) can see the bright colours of fish. Visitors can also explore caves (探索洞穴). Some of the caves even have paintings and drawings on the walls. After a full day of fun activities, visitors can see the stars in the huge sky. Because the island is far away from other places, it is surrounded (包围) by darkness, and the stars are easier to see. Watching the stars is a perfect end to a perfect day. 4. What do park rangers on Mona Island do? A. Offer some help to visitors. B. Protect the land and animals. C. Play with animals on Mona Island. D. Manage the government of Puerto Rico. 5. What does the underlined word “transparent” in Para 2 probably mean in Chinese? A. 透明的 B. 黑暗的 C. 模糊的 D. 饮用的 6.

It was not easy to make the trip, so I could hardly believe I was in Singapore when I got off the plane. Many places in Singapore interested us. First, we visited Singapore Zoo and Jurong Bird Park. Both the places were very large and many animals lived there. So we had to spend a day seeing all the animals. However, the most unforgettable event was the bird show in Jurong Bird Park. The workers had trained the birds carefully for long so they could dance, sing and even play basketball. The show was great, but I felt a little sad for the birds. I thought that humans should protect birds and live in peace with them. Their existence (存在) shouldn’t be for entertaining (娱乐) humans. Second, after spending a week visiting some places of interest in Singapore, my sister and I decided to take part in an English course. The students there had to speak English during the lessons. We thought it would be a good chance for us to improve our English. We really didn’t want to waste it. Finally, we finished the course in a week and we made great progress in our English. The trip to Singapore was really a nice experience in my life. During the trip, I learned much about Singapore’s culture and history and I improved my English. 46.
