When he was a child,Xu enjoyed reading books about Chinese mountains

At that time,many children studied hard to become officials.Xu was not
interested in that and Xu's father never forced him to take exams.He preferred
exploring nature and often wandered()in the countryside,taking a close
look at plants and rocks.This early curiosity shaped his future travels.After his
father passed away,Xu followed his mother's advice and began to travel when
he was about 22 years old.Before he left,his mother made him a hat for
travelling.
Xu travelled to 21 provinces and over 100 cities in China.He climbed
thousands of mountains and discovered over 300 caves.Xu was the first person
to find the highest peak of Mount Huangshan.And he discovered the Yangtze
River's real headwaters.
Xu travelled mostly on foot.He ate and slept in the wild.Sometimes he fell
into rivers or ran into dangerous animals..But Xu was brave(勇敢的)and he

It is hard to imagine a place that's more dangerous than
Death Valley.Death Valley is the hottest and the driest place
in North America.
Death Valley isn't an easy place to live.It gets less than
two feet of rain a year and it's hot too.In July,the temperature often reaches
over 46C.There is even a lake that has turned into salt crystals().But it
is cold at night.When it gets cold enough,the water on the ground will turn into
very thin ice.Then the strong wind-like a large hand-can move the rocks
along the icy ground.That is why the rocks can "walk"on their own in Death
Valley.
Although the weather conditions in Death Valley are terrible,it is still
filled with lives.Nothing can stop plants and animals from making it their
home.People have found more than 1,000 kinds of plants there.It also has 51
kinds of mammals(哺乳动物),6 kinds of fish,and more than300 kinds of
birds.The animals aren't all small,either.
Finding water is the biggest challenge for anything that lives here.Some
plants have roots()that go fifty feet under the ground to find water.
Kangaroo rats get the water they need from flowers.
Death Valley really creates a lot of surprising things!
)54.How much rain does Death Valley get a year?
A.Two feet.
B.At least two feet.C.Less than two feet.
()55.What does the underlined word“it”in Paragraph3 refer to?
A.The lake.
B.Death Valley.
C.The strong wind.
)56.What can we infer from the text?
A.Rocks sometimes move in the afternoon.
B.Some animals are large in Death Valley.
C.The plants in Death Valley have short roots.

Do you ever look closely at the paper money from different countries?You
will see more than numbers and colours.You will discover pictures of rivers,
mountains,buildings and famous people.
58.They are like small lessons in culture,history and nature.Paper
money isn't just for spending-it's also for learning.
Let's start with China.59._On the20 yuan note(纸币),there is the
Lijiang River in Guilin,with green mountains rising from calm waters.60.
On the 5 yuan note,you'll find Mount Tai,one of the most famous mountains in
China.A large number of poems were written in praise of it.
61.
Switzerland's notes include mountains,rivers,and even wind
patterns(图案)!Canada's have snowy scenery and maple(枫树)leaves..
Now many people use phones or cards as a way to pay.62.
But
paper money still has its value-not only in money,but in meaning.You can
hold it,look at it,and learn from it.It can be a tiny museum in your pocket.
So next time you hold your paper money,take a second look.
A.It's fast and easy.
B.It's an easy-to-learn lesson.
C.Other countries do this too,in their own way.
D.It's so beautiful that artists have painted it for centuries.

You are a nature lover??Then you must visit Zhangye Geopark(地质
in China!It's 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 formed.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()at 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 became 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 clear blue sky
and fresh air make every moment feel special.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.
63.The rainbow hills are
and look like waves.
64.As time passed,rivers carried
with different metal
elements to the area.
65.Because the lake dried up,the land at the bottom
and
pushed against each other.
66.The best time to visit Zhangye Geopark is from
67.Would you like to visit Zhangye Geopark?Why?

sports.
Once I spent too much time watching TV and playing computer games.So my grades
became worse and worse.I felt sad and didn't know what to do.My mother noticed my
changes.She had a long talk with me.She advised me to relax by listening to music and
running for an hour in the morning every day.A few months later,I found running could
make me healthy and happy.
In my opinion,when you meet some difficulties,you can share them with your parents
or teachers.They will give you some useful advice.

My Hobby Makes Me Better
Just as the saying goes,"Reading makes a full man."I always read in my spare time.
I think it can not only improve my knowledge,but also broaden my mind and strengthen my
character.
First of all,there are different kinds of stories in books.Some are interesting,some are
sad and some are wonderful.I can always learn a lot from them.Second,reading books
helps me do well in my studies.Books are quite useful when I meet with difficulties.
In a word,reading becomes part of my life.I think doing more reading can really make
me better.
