But my parents and I were not going to leave our house because we thought the 3 wouldn’t be too serious. Around 8:00 p.m, the wind 4 to blow. We could see the leaves 5 everywhere. About an hour later, it started to rain 6 . The branches (树枝) of the trees started to break off. I felt the wind pushing me back 7 I opened the door. At about 10:00 p.m, I tried to 8 but the wind kept making noises. Suddenly, my parents and I heard a 9 noise and knew that something bad happened. The storm broke a 10 into pieces and started to come in. After seeing this, we were so shocked that we couldn't say a word. We were in 11 for a while and decided to do something. I got some rubbish bags to cover the TV and computer in our house. My parents pushed an old bed to block (堵住) the window, but the wind kept blowing it down. So they found some 12 to prop up (支撑) the bed. Luckily, the storm didn't become worse again. The storm lasted 13 12 hours and stopped the next morning.

However, the 4 changed direction and the fire was pushed closer. Everyone was surprised but nobody was scared, because a fire couldn’t jump the river. That evening, the wind changed again. Kyle and his group were 5 surrounded (被围绕) by a forest fire. There was only one way to escape (逃脱). They had to keep rowing the boat to the next camping area so that they could be safe. It was very hot and the thick smoke 6 their eyes, so they put wet towels over their faces.

Governments are working hard to 11 people affected by the floods. They are getting people out of 12 areas, and sending thousands of rescue workers to help.

When she was born, she 1 just 100 grams and looked like a white mouse. When she was 4 months old, she began to go 2 for a walk for the first time. At first, Xi Wang drank 3 mother’s milk instead of bamboo. When she was 20 months old, she began to 4 herself. 5 , there are only about 1,600 pandas in the wild, and they face serious problems. For example, it is very 6 for pandas to have babies and many baby pandas 7 when they are very young. Also, giant pandas live mainly 8 a special kind of bamboo, but the bamboo forests are becoming smaller and smaller. As a result, pandas are now 9 . We should do something to 10 giant pandas. Here are some ideas. Scientists should take 11 right away to help pandas have more babies and help them 12 healthily. The government should build more panda 13 so that they will have a place to live and food to eat. Moreover, we need to make 14 to protect pandas. If someone hurt pandas, they will be punished.

When people catch sharks, they 2 their fins and throw the sharks back into the 3 . This is not only cruel, but also 4 to the environment. Without a fin, a shark can no longer 5 and slowly dies. Sharks are at the 6 of the food chain in the ocean’s ecosystem. 7 their numbers drop too low, it will bring danger to all ocean life. Many believe that sharks can 8 be endangered because they are the 9 in their food chain. But in fact, over 70 million sharks are caught and traded in this industry every year. The number of some kinds of sharks has 10 by over 90 percent in the past few years. Animal protection groups 11 the world are teaching the 12 about how to protect the animals.

Alex asked Mario, “There are so many animals 1 . Do you know any of them?” Mario said, “Yes. I know blue whales. My sister studies animals which are in the 2 . She once told me about blue whales. They’re the largest animals we’ve ever 3 to be on the earth.” At once, Alex became interested, saying, “That means they’re 4 bigger than dinosaurs (恐龙).” For the rest of the school day, Alex couldn’t stop thinking about this animal. As soon as he came home, Alex used his computer to 5 blue whales. He learned that an adult blue whale 6 around 200,000 kilos. That’s about forty times 7 than an adult elephant. While Alex was 8 the information online, his mother came. She asked, “Why do you show a sudden 9 in blue whales?” “We’re learning about endangered animals, and the blue whale is one of them,” said Alex. “People 10 them for meat and oil. Some ships even hurt them 11 making noise to stop them from communication. So there are fewer of them now. In the future, the beautiful whales may not 12 on the earth any more.” “That would be 13 ,” replied Alex’s mother, “It would be bad for environment.” Thinking for a while, Alex said with 14 , “Mom, I know what I want to do when I grow up. I want to study animals! I’ll help save blue whales and make a 15 to them.” His mom said, “Yes, I’m sure you will.” 1．A．in peace B．in danger C．in fact D．in silence 2．A．ocean B．forest C．sand D．mountain 3．A．know B．knowing C．knew D．known 4．A．very B．even C．really D．pretty 5．A．look like B．look at C．look up D．look after 6．A．weighs B．eats C．covers D．needs 7．A．taller B．heavier C．wider D．longer 8．A．sharing B．drawing C．writing D．reading 9．A．interest B．change C．dislike D．habit 10．A．keep B．feed C．throw D．kill 11．A．by B．with C．through D．without 12．A．die B．hide C．live D．plant 13．A．safe B．lucky C．terrible D．boring 14．A．fear B．fairness C．excitement D．difficulty 15．A．joke B．team C．wish D．difference Passage 4 Giant pandas are like the superstars of the animal world.

In the 1980s, their number 3 to just about 1,110. But here’s some good news. The number of pandas is becoming larger and larger. There are about 2,000 pandas in the wild in China now. 4 does China do it? Let’s take a look. Eating well Pandas sometimes eat small animals and fish, but bamboo is their favourite 5 . And these guys are big eaters! A panda needs 10—38 kg of 6 a day. China set up the first panda reserve more than 50 years ago. Now there are more reserves. People plant lots of bamboo there 7 provide pandas with enough fresh food. Remembering to be gentle Baby pandas are only 15 cm long—that is as 8 as a pencil! They can’t see 9 when they are born, and only open their 10 six to eight weeks after birth. So researchers (研究者) need to 11 them well in labs. When pandas grow big enough, researchers 12 them to the wild. But researchers try not to trouble other pandas’ lives. When they get close to wild pandas, they dress up 13 a panda. Saying hello to the world China has also welcomed international organizations (国际组织) to study pandas. The most famous visit was 14 1979 by the World Wildlife Fund (WWF). Its logo is the panda, so it makes the panda 15 all over the world. China also sends pandas to other countries as special “ambassadors (大使)”.

But here’s some good news. The number of pandas is becoming larger and larger. 4 the IUCN, the latest research shows there are about 1,864 pandas in the wild in China. 5 has China done it? Let’s take a look. Eating well Pandas sometimes eat small animals and fish, but bamboo 6 99 percent of their diet. And these guys are big eaters! A panda needs 10 to 18 kg of 7 a day.

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 summer, I would swim and go fishing with my dad. In winter, I’d spend hours sliding on a hill and 3 snowballs, 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 fall, the weather was usually 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 telling me stories. But my best fall 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. I shouted and my grandma came 7 . “What’s the matter?” said my grandma nervously. “Look!” I shouted, pointing at what looked to me like flames (火焰). “The mountains are on fire!” She looked. Then she 8 . “That’s not fire,” she said. “That’s 9 fall.” I think you may have seen it. Those leaves left their mark on my heart. Fall 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 all those things in every season. 11 in fall, the days grew shorter, and 12 evenings gave us more time for things that meant the most. That was long ago, but I still remember it 13 . Some memories are gifts that stay with us forever. When seasons change, they remind us that life keeps moving. We recall (回忆) good old days, give thanks for 14 and look forward to what lies ahead. Fall will 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．fall D．winter 2．A．for B．with C．as D．from 3．A．throwing B．eating C．building D．washing 4．A．move B．control C．hit D．warm 5．A．or B．while C．since D．however 6．A．continued B．folded C．began D．ended 7．A．running B．pressing C．feeling D．realizing 8．A．cried B．changed C．guessed D．laughed 9．A．never B．just C．instead D．neither 10．A．month B．food C．colour D．place 11．A．But B．Nor C．Though D．Unless 12．A．larger B．longer C．higher D．smaller 13．A．quickly B．suddenly C．hardly D．clearly 14．A．now B．past C．future D．days 15．A．reason B．person C．time D．thing Passage 2 Clouds often appear in the 1 , but do you really stop to 2 at them? Do you wonder their names? The activity is called cloud spotting (观云). Ji Yun, 36, is a cloud spotter in Beijing. He enjoys 3 about them, such as knowing their names according to their 4 . Ji loves 5 deeply. He began to find out more about the beauty of clouds after taking some photos of a solar halo (日晕). “I can’t stop myself from 6 them,” said Ji. In October 2013, Ji got a (n) 7 from a friend. There were very 8 clouds-asperitas clouds (糙面云)-in Beijing, and they were quickly going southeast. “ 9 I got the information, I rushed out of my home,”Ji said. 10 a second thought, he took a high-speed train to Tianjin. At that time, the trains weren’t as 11 as today. In the end, he 12 took photos of the clouds in Tianjin’s Wuqing area. The cloud was one of the world’s 13 10 rarest (罕见的) clouds. Ji’s story made 14 popular. Around that time, he created some WeChat groups to 15 the same love for clouds with fans. He said, “Can a cloud or an evening sky make you stop and look up?

But for 1 in Western cultures, autumn is a difficult season to describe. On the one hand, it is the 2 of the summer, and so a little sad. When you 3 in the morning, there’s mist (薄雾) and it’s 4 . You know that winter is 5 . American writer Ernest Hemingway wrote in his book A Moveable Feast: “You expected (认为) to be 6 in the autumn. Part of you died each year when the leaves fell from the trees…” On the other hand, autumn has its 7 side. There are so many 8 in nature at this time of year: The red and brown colours that the leaves change to, and the way they fall 9 the trees. French writer Albert Camus even thought autumn was a second spring: “Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower.” Another 10 theme (主题) is wisdom (智慧). The coming of the season is just like a person becoming mature (成熟的). At this time it’s thought that people could 11 a thing or two about life. Of course, there are many 12 themes and subjects in the literature (文学作品) of autumn. For example, it’s the start of a new term of the school year. 13 autumn can be a writing topic for 14 children and young people. But autumn writing is usually about the changes in 15 . And writers often use it as a symbol for changes in human life. 1．A．dancers B．visitors C．writers D．singers 2．A．top B．end C．middle D．start 3．A．get up B．stay up C．set up D．put up 4．A．colder B．cooler C．warmer D．hotter 5．A．doing B．going C．shining D．coming 6．A．happy B．excited C．sad D．quiet 7．A．good B．simple C．difficult D．hard 8．A．problems B．changes C．mistakes D．processes 9．A．into B．down C．over D．from 10．A．spring B．summer C．autumn D．winter 11．A．learn B．forget C．reduce D．collect 12．A．another B．others C．the other D．other 13．A．As B．If C．So D．Or 14．A．among B．both C．from D．all 15．A．shape B．nature C．idea D．life Passage 4 There are four seasons in a year. Which 1 do you like best? Different people like different seasons. Some like spring because they say it is the 2 of a year. Some like autumn because it’s the season to 3 . Some like winter because it can be 4 and they can have snowball fights 5 make snowmen outside. I like 6 best because there is always a long holiday during my school time every year. I bet every student must have the same 7 as me. When the summer holiday is coming, I often have a good plan for it and chat with my friends about 8 to go or what to do. The coolest thing in summer, I think, is to 9 together with my friends or family in streams, rivers or lakes. 10 , I also know that we should be 11 when we swim because it is dangerous.

When I first saw Lila in our school last term, I felt she was quite 1 —she only brought a notebook and a tape recorder to lessons. 2 we hurried to write down every word the teacher said, she just sat quietly, 3 on the blackboard. One day, our math teacher gave a surprise 4 . Most of us didn’t know how to answer the questions, but Lila finished 5 . When the teacher showed her paper with full marks to all of us, someone finally asked, “How do you remember everything without 6 ?” Lila smiled and played a short recording. It was the 7 voice explaining key points. “I don’t write every word,” she said. “I record the parts I might 8 , then listen to them while walking home. Writing down too much makes me 9 the teacher’s explanations.” We soon noticed more about her. After class, she often stayed to ask the teacher follow-up questions 10 rushing to play. When she made mistakes in homework, she would write down the 11 clearly, not just the correct answers. What impressed (给……留下印象) me most was her willingness to help others. Once, she spent three lunch breaks helping our classmate understand grammar rules—she 12 made simple cards for him. Now 13 thinks Lila is strange. She teaches us that being a good learner isn’t about working the hardest, but working the 14 . It means listening carefully, asking questions bravely, and never being afraid to 15 mistakes.

I was too 1 to speak in class. I always thought my answers might be wrong. My English teacher, Steven, found my problem. One day after class, he said to me, “Everyone makes 2 . It’s not important to be perfect. The most important thing is to try.” His words 3 me. I decided to make a change. I started to listen 4 in class and read English books every day. When I had questions about English, Steven and my classmates always lent me a 5 . My friend Lily, who is 6 at English than me, noticed my problems. One afternoon, she helped to make conversations with me. At first, I stuttered (结巴) a lot and wanted to stop, 7 she smiled and said, “Take your time—you work harder than yesterday!” We spent 20 minutes every day 8 . Thanks 9 her help, I began to understand that making mistakes is just part of learning. I knew she was my 10 friend. 11 , I became more confident (自信的). I even put up my hand to answer questions in class. To my surprise, I found that speaking English was not as 12 as I thought. Now, English is one of my 13 subjects. I got an “A” on the last test!

As I couldn’t speak Chinese, it was 1 for me to ask for directions, order food and communicate with people. So I didn’t 2 at home. I didn’t want to learn Chinese at first. My first week in Beijing was 3 because the customs were not the same as in my country. I couldn’t communicate with the local people well.

I didn’t have weekends to relax. My first Chinese class was not easy. 7 , I was surprised by my classmates. They all did better than me. But that 8 did not stop me. I was in the process of learning a new language. It was normal but I needed to be 9 . It was impossible to learn Chinese as fast as I could. The 10 process could help to get good results. Chinese classes are a great tool. I learned grammar, listening, reading 11 them. But classes are not everything. It’s necessary to 12 every day and make a habit of it. In my opinion, taking classes is 50% of the way to learn Chinese. The other 13 is to use it in the real world. In the beginning, I learned some new words. But I couldn’t use them 14 I was too shy. To change it, I started to 15 to everyone, from teachers and classmates to strangers in the street. After five months, I was able to talk with local people.

What about you?” “I’m really excited.” Diana saw the soccer coach (教练) bouncing the ball from knee to knee. She hoped he would teach her, too. When she walked toward the coach, Lisa pulled her arm. “ 3 are you going? Cheerleading (啦啦队) signups are over there.” Lisa pointed to a woman with a colourful board. “We’re all signing up. Emma, Ella and me. You are pleased to sign up with 4 , aren’t you?” “Eh…” To be honest, Diana couldn’t decide that. “Lisa, I’ve been practicing for 5 .” Lisa looked at her in surprise. “Soccer!

She smiled. “Well, my best friends, Emma and Ella signed up for cheerleading. I thought it would be 12 to join together with them.” Diana also believed that it would be interesting to join a sport with all her friends. “You’re right. Maybe I’ll join cheerleading, too.” She finally made a decision and started to walk toward her 13 , but Lisa pulled her arm again. “Wait. What will you do 14 I join soccer with you?” Lisa asked. “Really?” Diana was surprised. Lisa answered, “Yeah.

When I first saw Lila in our school last term, I felt she was quite 1 —she only brought a notebook and a tape recorder to lessons. 2 we hurried to write down every word the teacher said, she just sat quietly, 3 on the blackboard.

When the teacher showed her paper with full marks to all of us, someone finally asked, “How do you remember everything without 6 ?” Lila smiled and played a short recording. It was the 7 voice explaining key points. “I don’t write every word,” she said. “I record the parts I might 8 , then listen to them while walking home. Writing down too much makes me 9 the teacher’s explanations.” We soon noticed more about her. After class, she often stayed to ask the teacher follow-up questions 10 rushing to play. When she made mistakes in homework, she would write down the 11 clearly, not just the correct answers. What impressed (给……留下印象) me most was her willingness to help others. Once, she spent three lunch breaks helping our classmate understand grammar rules—she 12 made simple cards for him. Now 13 thinks Lila is strange.
