I like different seasons for different reasons. But my favourite season is 1 . Growing up, I spent a lot of time 2 my dad and his friends on their farm in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina. In summer, I would swim and go fishing with my dad. In winter, I􀆳d spend hours sliding on a hil and 3 snowbals, and then I􀆳d come inside to 4 my feet by the fire. In spring, my grandma and I would go hunting for trees and flowers. In fal, the weather was usualy perfect, warm enough to play in the river by day, cold enough at night to comfortably sit down and listen 5 my grandma or my dad was teling me stories. But my best fal memory 6 with rain when I was 6. We drove to the farm in a light rain. The next day, when the clouds parted, I went out to see a sight I would never forget.

Then she 8 . “That􀆳s not fire,” she said. “That􀆳s 9 fal.” I think you may have seen it. Those leaves left their mark on my heart. Fal became my favourite season not just for its 10 , but for other things—books we read, talks we shared and good times we spent together. We did al those things in every season. 11 in fal, the days grew shorter, and 12 evenings gave us more time for things that meant the most. That was long ago, but I stil remember it 13 . Some memories are gifts that stay with us forever. When seasons change, they remind us that life keeps moving. We recal(回忆) good old days, give thanks for 14 and look forward to what lies ahead. Fal wil always be my favourite time of a year. But the best season to enjoy life is any 15 , any place, and any chance we􀆳re given. 1. A. spring B. summer C. fal D. winter 2.

For example, while forests in Australia are on fire, fields in Egypt are covered in snow. Environmental scientists explain that events such as these are due to climate(气候) change. They say that if we can􀆳t protect the environment from polution, we wil surely destroy the Earth. However, many people say that scientists have lied to us and that there is no such thing as climate change. This passage wil look at both sides of the argument to see who is teling the truth. First of al, it is necessary to remember that scientific opinions have changed many times. For example, in the 1950s, the temperature in many countries seemed to be rising. Some of the world􀆳s best scientists said that the world was becoming hotter. However, in the early 1970s, the world began to freeze. As a result, scientists made new predictions: the world was not becoming hotter, but much colder. After the freezing winters of the 1970s, the world temperature began to rise again. Scientists changed their predictions again and thought the world was becoming too hot. Some people have said that these examples show that climate change is not real. And it􀆳s true that scientists have made mistakes. However, I don􀆳t believe this means that they are wrong about climate change. It􀆳s very difficult to make predictions about the future of weather. Although scientific predictions can sometimes be wrong, it does not mean that climate change is not real. In conclusion, environmental scientists have made mistakes but the important point is not whether the world is becoming hotter or colder but that climate is becoming worse. We have a chance to stop climate from changing and take action. 1. According to the passage, it􀆳s believed that . A. forest fires and snow have changed the world􀆳s climate B. polution has caused problems al around the world C. climate change is a lie to people in the world D. stories of terrible weather are not true 2. Scientists changed their minds in the 1970s because . A. the weather didn􀆳t change as they had predicted B. they couldn􀆳t predict changes of weather C. the temperature of the world rose D. the scientific opinions changed many times 3. According to the passage, which is the writer􀆳s opinion? A. Scientists are wrong about climate change. B. We shouldn􀆳t believe the predictions about the weather. C. We can do nothing to stop climate change. D. There is climate change in the world. 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 􀥈 Unit 7 Seasons us so I only took a notebook. 10.
