A
About 80 percent of Earth’s land animals make a home in the forests. Lots of people are working hard to protect forests, and you can, too. Follow these tips to help keep the planet’s forests standing tall.
Light Touch
Don’t take rocks, earth, flowers and leaves from the forest floor—they are an important part of the forest and provide homes for small animals like ants and snakes.
Gum Shoe
Clean the bottom of your shoes before walking in a new place—the seeds (种子) from other places might be under your shoes, which can harm the living areas of some animals and plants.
Trash Trooper
Bring an extra bag along on your walk: you can pick up litter as you go and help keep the forest clean.
Fire Safety
During dry seasons, wildfires can quickly burn down woods and forests. If you go camping, build campfires only in areas allowed, and make sure they’re fully put out before moving on.
Animal Help
Forest animals should live in the wild, not in people’s home or market. Never buy or pay to touch an animal that should be living in the wild, and ask your parents not to support those actions.

Dear Mum,
Today is my birthday and it is the first birthday I have spent far away from home. I miss you very much.
A few days ago, my teacher Miss Li told us that her primary school teacher made a huge difference in her life. She told us how her teacher encouraged her. But she didn’t have a chance to tell her. She was sad about it. This made me think a lot, especially when I am thousands of kilometers away from home. I am writing you the letter because I want you to know how much I love you.
A friend once said that a person’s happiness was mostly because of the love received in the childhood. I agree with her. I still remember the times when you held my hand and counted steps with me as we walked along. You told me stories about the brave elephant and encouraged me to be a confident girl. In cool autumn, we took many walks along the street, chatting and laughing together. My childhood was filled with these warm memories.
Time flies and so much has happened. There have been good times and bad times, ups and downs, but you were always by my side. When I won the swimming prize, you smiled and said you were proud of me. When I failed my math exam, you said everything would be fine. Now, when I have problems, I always think of your words and they help me a lot.
You have always said that we should judge people’s success by how they live their lives every day. I think I’m living a successful life and it’s all because of you. Thank you, Mum.
Love,
Feifei

Most people have an inner (内心的) voice. What you say to yourself, and how you say it, makes a difference to how you think, feel and behave, so it’s worth paying attention to it.
Your inner voice is always with you. You might notice it when you make a mistake, when you try something new, or when you solve a problem. Sometimes it sounds kind but at other times it can sound mean or scared. Young people’s coach Maria Evans says it should be treated with kindness. “It gets scared when you think about doing something that feels hard. Often all it needs is to be listened to and spoken to with love and reassurance.”
Your inner voice has an influence on you because you already pay attention to it. So what you say to yourself, and what you hear, sinks in. If you keep telling yourself you can’t do math or you’ re not good at making friends or you’ re not creative, over time you’ll believe what your inner voice is saying. When you talk to yourself like “I’ve got to tidy my room,” it makes the task feel harder. If instead you say, “I choose to tidy my room, and then I’ll be able to find the books I want easily,” it’s more positive (积极的). You’re telling yourself how you’ll get an advantage.
Noticing what your inner voice says and choosing to talk encouragingly to yourself can help you feel more confident. For example, when you get things wrong, tell yourself it’s okay and you’ll learn for next time. Or when you do something challenging, congratulate yourself for being brave and having a try. If you’re not sure what to say, imagine you’re talking to your best friends and trying to support and help them inside your head.
11. Why should you notice your inner voice?
A. It is always inside your head. B. It is different from your action.
C. It influences your thoughts and behavior. D. It helps you try something new and hard.
12. What does the underlined word “reassurance” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. pride B. comfort C. joy D. humor
13. What will happen if you keep saying no to yourself?
A. You’ll not be creative. B. You’ll meet math problems.
C. You’ll make no friends. D. You’ll believe what you say.
14. What is an example of positive inner voice?
A. “I’ve got to tidy my room.” B. “It’s hard to have a try.”
C. “It’s okay to make mistakes.” D. “I have to find the books.”
15. What’s the best title for this passage?
A. Talk Kindly to Yourself B. Make Friends for Yourself
C. Look Deep inside Yourself D. Build Confidence by Yourself
【答案】11. C 12. B 13. D 14. C 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文主要强调了内心声音的重要性以及如何以积极的方式与自己对话,以提升自信和改善行为。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据“What you say to yourself, and how you say it, makes a difference to how you think, feel and behave, so it’s worth paying attention to it.”可知,内心的声音会影响你的想法和行为,故选C。
【12题详解】
词义猜测题。根据“It gets scared when you think about doing something that feels hard. Often all it needs is to be listened to and spoken to with love and reassurance.”可知,当内心的声音感到害怕时,需要爱和安慰。所以“reassurance”表示“安慰”,与comfort同义。故选B。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据“If you keep telling yourself you can’t do math or you’re not good at making friends or you’re not creative, over time you’ll believe what your inner voice is saying.”可知,持续对自己说“不”,久而久之你会相信自己说的话,故选D。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Noticing what your inner voice says and choosing to talk encouragingly to yourself can help you feel more confident. ”可知,积极的内心声音是选择鼓励自己的话,“犯错也是可以的”符合,故选C。
【15题详解】
标题归纳题。通读全文可知,本文主要谈论的是如何与内心的声音友好交谈,故选A。
D
New research has found that wells dug by wild horses in deserts provide valuable drinking water. This helps other animals too, as black bears and American badgers have been found drinking at the wells.
A team of researchers from Australia, Denmark and the US set up remote cameras at four desert locations in the US. Wild horses had used their feet to dig wells as much as two meters deep at these sites, so they could reach water under dry river beds and streams. The cameras were used to watch over the sites and were set to record whenever an animal moved in front of them.
The scientists saw plenty of comings and goings by horses but they were most interested in which other animals came to drink at the wells. Over the course of three summers, beginning in 2015, the team recorded 57 kinds of other large animals visiting the wells, including wild cats and deer. The team also found that the wells offered water to desert plants.
Researcher Erick Lundgren, from Aarhus University in Denmark, described the wild horses as “natural engineers”—animals that change the environment around them. Perhaps the best known natural engineers are beavers (河狸). Beavers cut down trees with their teeth, creating space in woods where sunlight can reach smaller plants and allow them to grow. Then beavers use the wood to create dams across rivers, which help clean pollution in water and protect their homes.
More than 12,000 years ago, several kinds of horse-related animals lived in North America but they all died out. Today’s wild horses develop from animals that were brought to America by humans in the past few hundred years. By digging wells that help other animals, they may be providing a similar service of natural engineering once given by their extinct relatives.
16. Why did the wild horses dig the wells?
A. To protect themselves. B. To help other animals. C. To get drinking water. D. To create living space.
17. What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us about the study?
A. The result. B. The method. C. The purpose. D. The problem.
18. What can we learn about the wells?
A. They were dug with horses’ teeth. B. They were found near running rivers.
C. They reached as deep as four meters. D. They provided water for desert plants.
19. What advantage can small plants get because of beavers?
A. More sunlight. B. More water. C. Less pollution. D. Less space.
20. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Wild horses are changing deserts. B. Wild horses are natural engineers.
C. Wild horses were brought to America. D. Wild horses were found visiting wells.
【答案】16. C 17. B 18. D 19. A 20. B

【17题详解】
主旨大意题。根据“A team of researchers from Australia, Denmark and the US set up remote cameras at four desert locations in the US...The cameras were used to watch over the sites and were set to record whenever an animal moved in front of them.”可知来自澳大利亚、丹麦和美国的一组研究人员在美国的四个沙漠地点安装了远程摄像头,这些摄像头用于监视这些地点,并设置为记录动物在它们面前移动的时间,所以第二段主要告诉我们这个研究的方法。故选B。

Families all over the world create millions of tons of food waste each year. It’s time to become a “food-waste warrior” now.
“Food-waste warrior” means someone who makes the best of food that could have been thrown away. They care about every bit of food in daily life and try their best to reduce food waste. Apples, bananas, bread, and salad are the most common food that food-waste warriors try to save.
You may want to know the values of being a food-waste warrior. By making some small changes, you can not only cut food waste, but also save money. You can help the planet as well. After all, growing, packaging and transporting food uses a lot of Earth’s resources such as energy and water. Here are some simple tips that can help you and your family become food-waste warriors.
First, it’s a good idea to plan meals for the week with your family. Write a list before going shopping so that you buy what you really need.
Finding out just how much food goes into your bin helps too. Keep a diary and note down the food that gets thrown away most often and why.
Using your fridge is another way to save food. Keep fresh vegetables and fruit and maybe bread in there. You can freeze leftovers for another day, too.
Finally, use your senses. Some supermarkets take “best before” dates off fruit and vegetables to encourage people to use their nose and eyes to work out if something is still fine to eat.

A
About 80 percent of Earth’s land animals make a home in the forests. Lots of people are working hard to protect forests, and you can, too. Follow these tips to help keep the planet’s forests standing tall.
Light Touch
Don’t take rocks, earth, flowers and leaves from the forest floor—they are an important part of the forest and provide homes for small animals like ants and snakes.
Gum Shoe
Clean the bottom of your shoes before walking in a new place—the seeds (种子) from other places might be under your shoes, which can harm the living areas of some animals and plants.
Trash Trooper
Bring an extra bag along on your walk: you can pick up litter as you go and help keep the forest clean.
Fire Safety
During dry seasons, wildfires can quickly burn down woods and forests. If you go camping, build campfires only in areas allowed, and make sure they’re fully put out before moving on.

Forest animals should live in the wild, not in people’s home or market. Never buy or pay to touch an animal that should be living in the wild, and ask your parents not to support those actions.

Dear Mum,
Today is my birthday and it is the first birthday I have spent far away from home I miss you very much.
A few days ago, my teacher Miss Li told us that her primary school teacher made a huge difference in her life. She told us how her teacher encouraged her. But she didn’t have a chance to tell her. She was sad about it. This made me think a lot, especially when I am thousands of kilometers away from home. I am writing you the letter because I want you to know how much I love you.
A friend once said that a person’s happiness was mostly because of the love received in the childhood. I agree with her. I still remember the times when you held my hand and counted steps with me as we walked along. You told me stories about the brave elephant and encouraged me to be a confident girl. In cool autumn, we took many walks along the street, chatting and laughing together. My childhood was filled with these warm memories.
Time flies and so much has happened. There have been good times and bad times, ups and downs, but you were always by my side. When I won the swimming prize, you smiled and said you were proud of me. When I failed my math exam, you said everything would be fine. Now, when I have problems, I always think of your words and they help me a lot.
You have always said that we should judge people’s success by how they live their lives every day. I think I’m living a successful life and it’s all because of you. Thank you, Mum.
Love,
Feifei

Most people have an inner (内心的) voice. What you say to yourself, and how you say it, makes a difference to how you think, feel and behave, so it’s worth paying attention to it.
Your inner voice is always with you. You might notice it when you make a mistake, when you try something new, or when you solve a problem. Sometimes it sounds kind but at other times it can sound mean or scared. Young people’s coach Maria Evans says it should be treated with kindness. “It gets scared when you think about doing something that feels hard. Often all it needs is to be listened to and spoken to with love and reassurance.”
Your inner voice has an influence on you because you already pay attention to it. So what you say to yourself, and what you hear, sinks in. If you keep telling yourself you can’t do math or you’ re not good at making friends or you’ re not creative, over time you’ll believe what your inner voice is saying. When you talk to yourself like “I’ve got to tidy my room,” it makes the task feel harder. If instead you say, “I choose to tidy my room, and then I’ll be able to find the books I want easily,” it’s more positive (积极的). You’re telling yourself how you’ll get an advantage.
Noticing what your inner voice says and choosing to talk encouragingly to yourself can help you feel more confident. For example, when you get things wrong, tell yourself it’s okay and you’ll learn for next time. Or when you do something challenging, congratulate yourself for being brave and having a try. If you’re not sure what to say, imagine you’re talking to your best friends and trying to support and help them inside your head.
11. Why should you notice your inner voice?
A. It is always inside your head. B. It is different from your action.
C. It influences your thoughts and behavior. D. It helps you try something new and hard.
12. What does the underlined word “reassurance” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. pride B. comfort C. joy D. humor
13. What will happen if you keep saying no to yourself?
A. You’ll not be creative. B. You’ll meet math problems.
C. You’ll make no friends. D. You’ll believe what you say.
14. What is an example of positive inner voice?
A. “I’ve got to tidy my room.” B. “It’s hard to have a try.”
C. “It’s okay to make mistakes.” D. “I have to find the books.”
15. What’s the best title for this passage?
A. Talk Kindly to Yourself B. Make Friends for Yourself
C. Look Deep inside Yourself D. Build Confidence by Yourself
D
New research has found that wells dug by wild horses in deserts provide valuable drinking water. This helps other animals too, as black bears and American badgers have been found drinking at the wells.
A team of researchers from Australia, Denmark and the US set up remote cameras at four desert locations in the US. Wild horses had used their feet to dig wells as much as two meters deep at these sites, so they could reach water under dry river beds and streams. The cameras were used to watch over the sites and were set to record whenever an animal moved in front of them.
The scientists saw plenty of comings and goings by horses but they were most interested in which other animals came to drink at the wells. Over the course of three summers, beginning in 2015, the team recorded 57 kinds of other large animals visiting the wells, including wild cats and deer. The team also found that the wells offered water to desert plants.
Researcher Erick Lundgren, from Aarhus University in Denmark, described the wild horses as “natural engineers”—animals that change the environment around them. Perhaps the best known natural engineers are beavers (河狸). Beavers cut down trees with their teeth, creating space in woods where sunlight can reach smaller plants and allow them to grow. Then beavers use the wood to create dams across rivers, which help clean pollution in water and protect their homes.
More than 12,000 years ago, several kinds of horse-related animals lived in North America but they all died out. Today’s wild horses develop from animals that were brought to America by humans in the past few hundred years. By digging wells that help other animals, they may be providing a similar service of natural engineering once given by their extinct relatives.
16. Why did the wild horses dig the wells?
A. To protect themselves. B. To help other animals. C. To get drinking water. D. To create living space.
17. What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us about the study?
A. The result. B. The method. C. The purpose. D. The problem.
18. What can we learn about the wells?
A. They were dug with horses’ teeth. B. They were found near running rivers.
C. They reached as deep as four meters. D. They provided water for desert plants.
19. What advantage can small plants get because of beavers?
A. More sunlight. B. More water. C. Less pollution. D. Less space.
20. What is the main idea of the passage?
A Wild horses are changing deserts. B. Wild horses are natural engineers.
C. Wild horses were brought to America. D. Wild horses were found visiting wells.

Families all over the world create millions of tons of food waste each year. It’s time to become a “food-waste warrior” now.
“Food-waste warrior” means someone who makes the best of food that could have been thrown away. They care about every bit of food in daily life and try their best to reduce food waste. Apples, bananas, bread, and salad are the most common food that food-waste warriors try to save.
You may want to know the values of being a food-waste warrior. By making some small changes, you can not only cut food waste, but also save money. You can help the planet as well. After all, growing, packaging and transporting food uses a lot of Earth’s resources such as energy and water. Here are some simple tips that can help you and your family become food-waste warriors.
First, it’s a good idea to plan meals for the week with your family. Write a list before going shopping so that you buy what you really need.
Finding out just how much food goes into your bin helps too. Keep a diary and note down the food that gets thrown away most often and why.
Using your fridge is another way to save food. Keep fresh vegetables and fruit and maybe bread in there. You can freeze leftovers for another day, too.
Finally, use your senses. Some supermarkets take “best before” dates off fruit and vegetables to encourage people to use their nose and eyes to work out if something is still fine to eat.
