We need to drink a lot of water every day. We also need water to cook, wash and do many other things. We can only live three or four days without water. But there isn’t enough water on the Earth. Billions of people in the world don’t have clean water. Some people even have to spend hours every day walking to other places to get clean water. So let’s develop good habits of using water and start with little things in our life.

They can pick up and carry heavy things with their trunks. Elephants are like us in some ways. They are clever. For example, they can remember one another and places with food and water after many years. Elephants are very kind too. They look after other elephants when they don’t feel well. The big elephants also help the baby ones. Elephants are an important part of Thai life and culture. However, they are in danger.

They help clean the air, provide shade, and give homes to animals. But many trees are cut down every year. To protect the environment, a group of students from Green School planted 200 trees last weekend. They dug holes, put the young trees in, and watered them. The students said they felt tired but proud. “We hope these trees will grow big and make our city greener,” said one student. 1．Why are trees important? 2．How many trees did the students plant? 3．What did the students do after putting the trees in the holes? 4．How did the students feel about the activity? 5．What is the purpose of planting trees according to the passage? Most of you may think of clams (河蚌) as part of delicious food. But these little things can do an important job: testing (测试) the cleanliness (洁净度) of water in nature and people’s drinking water. The important water plant in Warsaw, Poland, gives water to its people there. It uses eight clams to help test the water every day. Clams can find very small changes quickly in water. If the water is not very clean, the clams will close their shells (壳). People in the water station connect (连接) their shells to a computer. When four or more clams close their shells at the same time, the workers can get a tip (提示) from the computer quickly. To make the clams always find very small changes quickly in water, the workers choose some new ones to work for them every three months. “It works well and it helps save people’s drinking water, rivers and lakes,” the worker in the water station said. 根据短文内容，回答下面问题。 1．What important job can clams do according to the text (根据文章)? 2．How many clams do the people in Warsaw use to test the water? 3．When can the workers get a tip from the computer? 4．Why do workers change clams every three months? 5．What do you think of the clams’ work? Water is everywhere around us. It is under the ground, in the ocean, and even in the sky. On sunny days, water evaporates (蒸发) from rivers, lakes, and oceans and goes up into the air. When it reaches the sky, it forms clouds. This is part of the water cycle, which helps bring rain and keep our planet alive. Water is very important for us. We need to drink water every day to stay healthy. We also use water for many other things in our daily lives, like washing, cooking, and cleaning. Because of all the water on Earth, our planet is often called the Blue Planet. However, not all water is useful for us. Most of the fresh water is snow and ice near the North and South Poles (南北极). In fact, only about 1% of the water on Earth is fresh water that we can use directly. We have little fresh water, so it is important for us to save every drop of water. 1．Where can we find water on Earth? . 2．Why is Earth called the Blue Planet? . 3．How much water on the earth can we use directly? . 4．What is the main idea of the passage? . 5．Do you think water is important to us? Why? . 阅读下面短文，根据短文内容，完成下列各题。 The Importance of the Ocean The ocean is a vast body of water that covers a large part of the earth. It is very important for many reasons. First, the ocean provides a home for millions of different kinds of plants and animals. Some of these creatures are very small, while others are very large. The ocean is like a big family for them. Second, the ocean gives us a lot of food. We can catch fish and other seafood from the ocean. It is an important source of protein for many people around the world. Third, the ocean helps to control the earth’s climate. It absorbs heat from the sun and releases it slowly. This helps to keep the earth’s temperature stable. 1．What does the ocean cover? 2．What does the ocean provide for plants and animals? 3．What can we get from the ocean as food? 4．What does the ocean absorb from the sun? 5．What does the ocean help to keep stable? 重难语篇练习 阅读下面的短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 You are a nature lover? Then you must visit Zhangye Geopark (地质公园) in China! It’s recognized by UNESCO as one of the best geoparks in the world. Here, you can enjoy the beauty of the rainbow hills. They are low hills that look like waves and have many different colours, just like a rainbow! There is little grass growing on the land. When you see the hills from above, it’s like you’re looking at rainbows painted on the ground. You may wonder how these colourful hills came to be. Millions of years ago, this area was under a lake. Over time, rivers brought in sand and stones with different kinds of metal elements. These were left in layers on the bottom of the lake. Some layers were red, some yellow, and others turned purple or blue. Later, as the climate became colder and drier, the lake dried up. Then, something amazing happened! The underground land began to rise up and push against each other. The layers of sandstone were lifted higher and higher. Through years of wind, sun, and rain, they formed the colourful hills we see today. June to September is the most wonderful time to visit. The mornings and evenings are cooler than the hot days, giving you the perfect weather to enjoy the sunrises and sunsets. Sunshine after a summer rain will make the colours even brighter and more beautiful. 1．What can you enjoy in Zhangye Geopark? 2．What colours were the layers? 3．How did the layers form the colourful hills we see today? 4．When is the most wonderful time to visit the park? 5．What do you think of Zhangye Geopark? 阅读回答问题 When my children were younger, we often walked on a graveled trail (碎石小道) around the lake near our home. One spring day my daughter and I saw a lot of trash (垃圾) along the trail. So the next day we brought a big trash bag with us and started to slowly pick up the trash along the way. There were paper bags, broken boxes and even an old shoe. We stopped and picked up each one. The bag was full in a short time! Tired but happy we put the bag in a trash bin (垃圾桶). We stopped before we went home and took one last look at the lake as the sun went down. It looked more beautiful. I know that sometimes this world's problems can seem quite big and you wonder what you can do to make a difference (有影响). But the truth is that everything you do makes a difference! Every time you stop to pick up a small piece of trash, you make a difference in the world. Every kind word you say makes a difference. Every flower you plant, every animal you save, everything you do, no matter how small, makes a difference in this world. 1．What did the writer and the daughter do when they saw the trash? 2．How did they feel after their work? 3．Why did the lake look more beautiful? (in your own words) 4．Should we learn from the writer and the daughter? What small thing did you do in your daily life to make a difference?

One spring day my daughter and I saw a lot of trash (垃圾) along the trail. So the next day we brought a big trash bag with us and started to slowly pick up the trash along the way. There were paper bags, broken boxes and even an old shoe. We stopped and picked up each one. The bag was full in a short time! Tired but happy we put the bag in a trash bin (垃圾桶). We stopped before we went home and took one last look at the lake as the sun went down. It looked more beautiful. I know that sometimes this world's problems can seem quite big and you wonder what you can do to make a difference (有影响). But the truth is that everything you do makes a difference! Every time you stop to pick up a small piece of trash, you make a difference in the world. Every kind word you say makes a difference. Every flower you plant, every animal you save, everything you do, no matter how small, makes a difference in this world. 1．What did the writer and the daughter do when they saw the trash? 2．How did they feel after their work? 3．Why did the lake look more beautiful? (in your own words) 4．Should we learn from the writer and the daughter? What small thing did you do in your daily life to make a difference? (Write 20 words or more.) 【答案】1．They picked up the trash./They brought a big trash bag and slowly picked up the trash (along the way). 2．Tired but happy. 3．Because it was cleaner(clean)/they made the lake clean/they collected the trash... 4．Yes. When my classroom was dirty, I cleaned it after school. I picked a lot of trash out of it. When my teacher and classmates came the next day, they were very happy. We felt happy when we studied in a beautiful and clean classroom. 【导语】本文讲述了作者与女儿在一次散步时，发现家附近湖边的碎石小道上有很多垃圾，于是第二天带着大垃圾袋沿途捡拾，尽管疲惫却很开心。看着清理后更美的湖面，作者感悟到：世界上的问题看似庞大，但每个人所做的每件事，无论多小，都会产生影响——捡起一块垃圾、说一句善意的话、种一朵花等，都是在让世界变得更好。 1．根据第一段“So the next day we brought a big trash bag with us and started to slowly pick up the trash along the way.”可知，她们带了大垃圾袋，沿途慢慢捡拾垃圾。故填They picked up the trash./They brought a big trash bag and slowly picked up the trash (along the way). 2．根据第二段“Tired but happy we put the bag in a trash bin.”可知，她们虽累但开心。故填Tired but happy. 3．根据“we brought a big trash bag with us and started to slowly pick up the trash along the way.”可知，因为作者和女儿清理了湖边的垃圾，湖面环境变干净了，所以看起来更美。故填Because it was cleaner(clean)/they made the lake clean/they collected the trash... 4．开放性试题。Yes.
