It was    1    by Ernst Haeckel, a German biologist. He joined two Greek words: oikos, meaning "house", and logie, meaning "the study of". Together they mean "the study of the house". The "house" Haeckel had in mind is our    2   , Earth. Earth is home for all living things—humans, animals, plants, and even tiny microbes. To study a house is to learn how its residents(居民)use it. An ecologist is a scientist who studies the    3    between organisms (生物) and their environment. The environment is an organism's surroundings. It may    4    water, gases, rocks, and temperature. Ecologists also study the balance of using the environment while protecting it. An ecologist once asked a boy    5    he thought it meant to protect the environment. The boy said, “You go into the forest and look for somebody who wants to cut down a tree. You take away his axe. You tell him about how    6    trees are. You say they are good for natural beauty, saving soil, and giving shelter to birds and other animals. ” “ Good answer,” said the ecologist, “    7    it may not be easy to find a woodcutter to talk to. Also, remember that sometimes it's    8    to cut down a tree. If we cut down too many trees, the forest will disappear. If we don't cut down any trees, we won't get any resources from the forest. We have to find the right    9   . ” “I get it,” the boy said. “We need the forest's    10    for wood and paper or we might not have desks or notebooks for school. ” “Exactly—and school is a good place to learn about ecology,” added the ecologist. “Then you will know how to protect the natural environment. ” 1.A. proved B. invented C. marked D. accepted 2.A. planet B. building C. project D. surface 3.A. feeling B. relationships C. distance D. competitions 4.A. pollute B. control C. include D. reduce 5.A. who B. whose C. why D. what 6.A. wild B. common C. wealthy D. important 7.A. but B. and C. so D. or 8.A. comfortable B. tiring C. impossible D. necessary 9.A. mystery B. temperature C. balance D. symbol 10.A. soil B. resources C. landscape D. wildlife Ⅳ One day, a famous scientist was interviewed by a newspaper reporter. The reporter asked him    1    he thought he was able to be so much more creative than common people. He told the reporter it all came from a(n)    2    with his mother when he was about two years old. He had been trying to get a bottle of    3    from the refrigerator, but suddenly it fell. The milk spilled all over the kitchen floor. When his mother came into the kitchen, instead of    4    at him, she said, “Robert, what a great and wonderful mess you have made! I have never seen such a sea of milk. Well, the damage has already been done. Would you like to get    5    and play in the milk for a few minutes before we clean it up?” Indeed, he did. After a few minutes, his mother said, “You know, Robert, whenever you make a mess like this,    6    you have to clean it up and make everything in good order”. So they cleaned up the spilled milk together. His mother then said, "You know, what we have here is a failed experiment in order to find a good way to carry a big milk bottle with two    7    hands. Let's go out in the back yard and fill the bottle with water and see if    8    can discover a way to carry it without dropping it." The little boy learned that if he took the bottle at the top near the lip (瓶盖) with both hands, he could carry it without dropping it. It was the    9    lesson for him! It was at that moment that he knew he didn't need to be afraid to    10   .

I think I am the    3    person for the job," he wrote. What are Sam's    4   ? For one, he wrote, "My sister says I act like an alien (外星人)." Sam also said he had watched almost all the    5    movies he could find. His last sentence may touch people's hearts, "I am young, so I can learn to think like an alien." Sam soon got a    6    from Bill Black, director of the agency. "We have received your letter. It is great that you are interested in the job. This job is to    7    the earth from germs (细菌) on things brought back from other planets." Bill ended the letter with some warm words,    8    Sam to study hard and do well in school.

Here are some    1    that helped me and my friends through this season. When the stress of exams is really hitting me, I stop and take a walk. I usually borrow my neighbor's dog and    2    for about fifteen minutes. Many boys would simply choose to run for a while, or play ball games. Having some    3    drives away your stress easily most of the time. And    4    you find music helpful, give it a go. Listening to your favorite songs will surely make you    5   . The best thing about this is that you don't have to go    6   . But if you are a book lover just like me,    7    a book you like for half an hour. Reading can take you to places you've    8    been. Putting yourself into a new world helps you forget your stress in this world for a little bit. For sure, there's nothing better than laughing. Laughing is the best medicine. It can really keep    9    off your mind! Very often I call my best friend and we    10    our good times or something funny, and I'm feeling better before I know it. Remember many others also face the problem of stress just like you, and it is not something that cannot be dealt with. 1.A. ways B. reasons C. habits D. results 2.A. walk B. jump C. stand D. sit 3.A. jokes B. sports C. tasks D. lessons 4.A. before B. until C. since D. if 5.A. lovely B. friendly C. happy D. sleepy 6.A. somewhere B. everywhere C. anywhere D. nowhere 7.A. copy B. write C. print D. read 8.A. ever B. never C. seldom D. always 9.A. worry B. pity C. surprise D. pain 10.A. think about B. talk about C. care about D. hear about Ⅷ Pencil: I'm sorry. Eraser: For what? You didn't do anything    1   . Pencil: I'm sorry that you get hurt    2    me. Whenever I make a mistake, you're always there to erase it. But when you make my mistakes disappear(消失), you also    3    a part of yourself. You get smaller each time. Eraser: That's true. But I don't really    4   . You see, I was made to do this. I was made to    5    you whenever you make a mistake. I know I'll be gone one day and you'll replace (取代) me with a(n)    6    eraser. But I'm actually happy with my job. So please, stop being    7   . I don't want to see you feeling sad. Parents are like    8    and their children are like pencils. They're always there for their children, cleaning up their mistakes. Sometimes they get hurt along the way. They become smaller, older and    9    pass away finally. Though they cannot accompany (陪伴) their children for life, parents are still    10    with what they do for their children and always hope that their loved ones can be happy. I am the pencil now, but I know I will be the eraser one day and do the same thing my parents used to do for me. 1.A. wrong B. meaningful C. strange D. reasonable 2.A. together with B. such as C. instead of D. because of 3.A. break B. lose C. burn D. cut 4.A. understand B. know C. mind D. believe 5.A. replace B. teach C. help D. follow 6.A. big B. old C. small D. new 7.A. worried B. funny C. angry D. excited 8.A. pencils B. mistakes C. papers D. erasers 9.A. even B. still C. just D. yet 10.A. angry B. happy C. surprised D. sorry Ⅸ Tom's got a big smile on his face. He's thinking about    1    again. Tom's an excellent swimmer. Right now he's daydreaming about swimming in the sea. Tom meets a lovely fish in the water. "Ahhhh," he says. "That's nice. What's your    2   ? Can you speak?" Tom hears children's laughter first, then, "My name is Mrs Potter! As you know! Tom,    3   . You're daydreaming again!" Tom opens his eyes and looks up. Mrs Potter, his teacher, is looking at him. He gives    4    his best smile. However, she turns her back to him and walks away, saying, "No play time for you today, Tom." Tom sighs and looks across the classroom at May. Yesterday he    5    to play table tennis with her. May's very good at table tennis. Tom looks around at his classmates. Fatima's good at singing. Charlie's best thing is painting. Ollie's the town's chess champion. He moves his thoughts around the classroom, stopping at each child to name their    6    thing. Dora's good at horse riding, and Huang's brilliant at languages. Then he looks at    7    and thinks, "She's very patient. She's the best teacher ever!" Tom looks at May again. He can't see her face    8    he knows she's sad. "I need a plan to keep my promise," he thinks. "Why not talk to Mrs Potter and ask for her forgiveness?"... Just as the bell rings and all the children shout "   9   !" and move towards the door. A few minutes later Mrs Potter looks out of the window into the playground. Fatima and Ollie are playing chess under the tree. Charlie and Dora are sitting together on a bench. Huang's having a conversation with Mr Domingo, the French teacher. May and Tom are playing tennis. "Tom's right. Table tennis is May's best thing." She says to herself    10   .

One day, he and his schoolmates had different opinions on a question. To get a    1    answer, he went to visit Cheng Yi, the famous philosopher. At Cheng's house,    2   , the guarding kid told him that Mr. Cheng was meditating(冥想)in his room and asked him to go back. Yang    3    to leave, so the little boy left him alone and went in. After a while, it began to snow    4   . The little boy came out again and reminded Yang that Mr. Cheng might spend the whole afternoon meditating. He invited Yang to    5    himself in the house to avoid the wind and snow. But Yang kept standing in the snow and waiting outside in order that he could ask Cheng's    6    on the question. As soon as Cheng finished meditating, the boy reported that Yang was waiting outside. When    7    this, Cheng came out to see Yang. When the door was opened, everyone was    8   . The snow was more than a foot deep, but Yang stood still,    9    moving his feet. “Young man, why are you so silly? You could have come again someday!” Cheng took Yang to the room at once. “As a student... if I want to learn from the teacher... I should... of course... respectfully wait outside...” said Yang, shaking with cold. Cheng was very happy and accepted Yang as his student because of Yang's politeness and effort to learn. He taught Yang all his philosophical thoughts. That made a big    10    to Yang's life. Later, Yang really learned a lot and made great contributions(贡献)to his country. 1.A. similar B. correct C. wrong D. difficult 2.A. besides B. however C. anyway D. instead 3.A. hoped B. agreed C. refused D. wanted 4.A. heavily B. early C. deeply D. wisely 5.A. warm B. find C. cool D. hide 6.A. method B. rule C. record D. opinion 7.A. hearing B. seeing C. feeling D. receiving 8.A. excited B. relaxed C. shocked D. interested 9.A. by B. with C. on D. without 10.A. choice B. difference C. decision D. plan XI Last Monday, a teacher named Celina cheerfully asked her students what their weekends were like. A boy said that he had spent a    1    weekend—he had his teeth    2    out and they still hurt. “Why do you always seem to be so happy?” he asked. Hearing the    3   , Celina answered with a smile, “Every morning, you have a choice about how you will treat your whole day. I    4    to be cheerful.” “And today is my lucky day.” she added. “   5   ?” the whole class were curious. “This morning, I    6    a mobike and rode to school as usual. Suddenly, the mobike didn't work, so I had to go another kilometer down the road.” “The mobike is broken and it's your lucky day?” The students were    7   . “What do you mean, Celina?” one girl asked. “It broke down a quarter before class, so I left it at a proper place and    8    the road. You know, it's spring now. The beautiful flowers, green trees and sweet bird songs were greeting me all the way. So I had the chance to enjoy them. It    9    me ten minutes to arrive and I was still able to teach my class on time." The students' eyes opened wide, and then they smiled. Celina smiled back. Somehow, her story touched them.

Perhaps most of us didn't know this great name until she was introduced in a CCTV programme. Wang Zhenyi was a great Chinese    1   . She was born in the Qing Dynasty. At that time,    2    had no chance to get a formal education. However, her father and grandfather were open - minded. They thought girls should share equal    3    with boys. They    4    her to read the books in their home library. Wang Zhenyi educated herself and read a lot about astronomy (the study of the stars, planets, etc.), maths, geography as well as medicine. Later, she decided to    5    astronomy. In her time, many people expected the stars to tell what was going to    6   . They thought certain events in the sky, such as lunar eclipses (月食) happened when gods were angry. But Wang Zhenyi thought    7   . She believed in facts and observation. In order to explain those "strange" events, she did some    8   . In one, she used a round table as the Earth, a lamp as the Sun and a mirror as the Moon. She moved them around to show what    9    happens during a lunar eclipse: when the Earth is passing directly between the Sun and the Moon, the sunlight cannot reach the Moon and the Moon "disappears". Throughout her short life, Wang Zhenyi wrote many articles about her research. In her articles, she explained difficult ideas in clear and    10    ways so that people could understand science more easily. She helped make science available to more people. 1.A. doctor B. scientist C. lawyer D. teacher 2.A. girls B. kids C. the poor D. the disables 3.A. money B. opportunities C. time D. height 4.A. invited B. selected C. followed D. encouraged 5.A. rely on B. show off C. focus on D. talk about 6.A. run B. take C. happen D. express 7.A. carefully B. quickly C. silently D. differently 8.A. exercises B. drawings C. reviews D. experiments 9.A. actually B. suddenly C. nearly D. recently 10.A. simple B. polite C. funny D. traditional 页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
