Do you know which animal lives the longest? Let’s read about some of these amazing animals. You probably know that the world’s fastest animal is the cheetah (猎豹). Cheetahs can run at about 120 kilometers an hour. However,they can only run at that speed (速度) for about 60 seconds. When cheetahs are running at that speed, they spend more time in the air than on the ground. The largest animal in the world is the blue whale. Here’s an interesting fact about these giant animals. They aren’t just the largest species (物种) right now. They are the largest animals that have ever existed (存在) on the earth. Blue whales are about 38 meters long, and they weigh around 170 tons. Blue whales eat about 3,600 kilograms of food every day. Of course, the smartest animals in the world are humans. The second smartest animal is the chimpanzee (黑猩猩). Chimps can make tools and build things. They can also solve (解决) problems. Some scientists have ever taught chimps sign language. Sign language is using your hands to make words and communicate (交流). Other very smart animals are dolphins and parrots. Most people believe that tortoises live the longest. It’s true that tortoises live longer than other animals on land. The oldest tortoises that we know about died at the age of 188. However, some ocean animals live longer. Some koi, a kind of goldfish, can live for more than 200 years. There’s even a kind of jellyfish that can change its cells (细胞) and make them new again. This means that whenever the jellyfish gets old and weak, it can make itself young again! The nickname of this jellyfish is “immortal jellyfish”. The most poisonous (有毒的) animal is also a jellyfish. In the last 60 years, box jellyfish have killed more than 5,500 people. If a person is stung by a box jellyfish, he or she must get help at once. Otherwise, that person’s chance of survival (存活) is almost zero. 49．What can we know from the passage? A．Cheetahs run faster than any other animal in the world. B．A chimp speaks the same simple words as a parrot does. C．Blue whales live much longer than tortoises in the ocean. D．A jellyfish isn’t so poisonous as the snakes on the earth. 50．According to the passage, the underlined word “immortal” describes _______. A．something is in great danger B．something can live forever C．something is similar to humans D．something can change its colour 51．What is the passage mainly about? A．The experience of helping humans live a long life. B．The importance of taking good care of the animals. C．Good ways of saving people’s lives from jellyfish. D．Some of the most amazing animals on the earth. C No matter where you live, you may hear about the natural disasters. They bring many serious problems to people in disaster areas. They become ill, homeless and some of them even die in the disasters. Japan is located in East Asia, but it is an island in the North Pacific Ocean. Japan has more than 1,000 islands, but there are four main islands. Lots of rains fall in Japan at a lot of times of a year, especially in summer. There is a rainy season in early summer, and typhoons hit parts of the country every year during late summer. The heavy rains usually destroy the crops and plants. What’s worse, the rains usually cause huge floods. Floods in Japan can take away many things, including many people’s lives. A Japanese housing developer recently invented a “flood-resistant house”. It can not only keep water out of the house during floods but also float off (漂浮) the ground. Because of floods, the loss of housing is a difficult problem all over the world. While engineers are trying to find solutions, few ways are useful. Now, the Japanese housing developer tells the public that he came up with an answer the other day. It can keep people’s homes from getting flooded. Their new “flood-resistant house” was recently on a popular Japanese TV show and received much attention online. According to engineers, most houses will be in the flood when water reaches the windows, but their “flood-resistant house” can float up to five metres above the ground, so water will not reach the windows, and everything else is shut in the house safely. 52．What is the main idea of Para.1? A．Natural disasters bring people much trouble. B．Natural disasters may happen everywhere. C．Natural disasters always make people ill. D．Natural disasters can be heard every day. 53．Which of the following is TRUE? A．Typhoons hit parts of Japan in early summer. B．The floods mainly happen in Japan in autumn. C．Japan is an island in the East Pacific Ocean. D．Heavy rains cause floods in Japan in summer. 54．Why did a Japanese housing developer invent a “flood-resistant house”? A．To protect people from earthquakes. B．To reduce the loss of housing in floods. C．To keep people away from the ocean. D．To protect people from typhoons. 55．What can we infer from the passage? A．The “flood-resistant house” can fly high up into the sky. B．The “flood-resistant house” is popular all around the world. C．Japanese people might build more “flood-resistant houses”. D．Japanese engineers are living in the “flood-resistant house”. 四、七选五 The flu (流感) is a common illness. During spring and winter, you may find people around you coughing or sniffing (抽鼻子). 1 Here is some advice for you. Keep your hands clean. You may keep yourself away from anyone coughing, but you’re more likely to pick up cold viruses from something you touch. Cold viruses are often on door knobs (把手), as they’re often touched. 2 “If there is no way to clean hands, try not to touch your eyes or nose,” says Dr Ross Walton. “This is a very common way for viruses to get into your body.” 3 When you’re sleeping, your body is able to produce something to fight viruses. People who sleep for 7—8 hours a night have better immunity (免疫力) than those who sleep less. According to a health expert, if you don’t have a good sleep during the night, a 30-minute daytime nap is enough to make up for it. Do exercise. 4 Having a strong immune system gives you a chance of fighting the virus off before it makes you ill. You can play the sport that you enjoy most. For example, you can walk, run, swim or dance. Get the flu jab (预防针). To stay away from the flu, 5 “It’s true that the jab can’t help us fight against all kinds of flu, but it can save lives. I certainly have one every year,” says Dr Walton. A．getting flu jabs is necessary and important. B．Having enough sleep is important. C．How can you stay away from the flu? D．Get enough sleep. E．Washing hands will keep you from picking up a virus. F．It doesn’t matter what kind of exercise. G．It can make the immune system work better. 1._______________2._______________3.__________________4._________________5.___________________ 五、词汇 A. 根据中文、首字母、英文解释或句意写单词 1.

You may already know that hurricanes are storms that can cause devastating(毁灭性的)waves，wind，and rain．They happen during“Hurricane Season，”which is from June 1st until November 30th in the Atlantic Ocean and from May 15th until November 30th in the Pacific Ocean. Categories(类别)of Hurricanes There are five categories of hurricanes, which are based on wind speeds. The categories help people know how much damage(危害)a hurricane may cause because the greater the wind speed，the more dangerous the storm is．For example，a Category 5 hurricane has winds over 155 miles per hour，which are strong enough to destroy the buildings along the shorelines completely． Hurricane Dangers When a hurricane happens together with heavy rainfall，there can be a devastating flood．The centre of a hurricane is called the eye．While most of a hurricane has dangerously strong winds，the eye is actually(事实上)a calm area in the storm．When the eye of a hurricane passes over land，people might think that it’s over，but before long the wind and rain increase again as the second part of the hurricane moves through． Hurricane Safety Tips There is no way to stop a hurricane or make it change direction，so if you ever find yourself in the path of a hurricane，be sure to remember the following safety tips． •Be sure you have a radio，batteries，fresh drinking water，and enough food． •Tell neighbours，friends，and family members your emergency plans．Tell them where you’ll go if you need to leave your home． •If you live near the ocean，leave your home and travel to a safe place．You could stay with a friend or a family member，in a hotel or in an emergency shelter area． •Stay inside during the storm．You could be seriously injured(受伤)if you go outside． 根据短文回答问题,不超过八个单词 1.
