Dear Mike,
I'm glad that you are interested in the
“Exploring Plants on Campus”activity at our
school.I can't wait to share something about it
with you.
Firstly,we took an exciting tour around the
schoolyard.Our science teacher showed us
different plants.It was so fun that some of us
picked up some beautiful fallen leaves.Then,a
teacher gave us an interesting speech about
different kinds of plants in the world.He used
simple stories to make the speech easy to
understand.Finally,we attended the plant
exhibition in our school hall,and it was
really cool.
This activity was really meaningful.It made
me realise how wonderful nature is and how
important it is to protect nature.I really hope
you can also join in such activity in the future.
Best wishes,
Li Hua

Protecting Nature,Starting from Me
Plants and animals are very important to
humans.They provide us with food,clean the
air,and keep the balance of nature.For
example,bees help flowers grow,and trees
make the air fresher.
We depend on nature to live,so we must
protect the environment.To live in harmony with
nature,we should save resources,reduce
pollution,and take part in environmental
activities.For example,we can use less water,
stop littering,and join tree-planting events.
Let's take action now to make our world a
better place!

Wetlands,the "Earth's kidneys,"are important for a healthy planet.They clean our water
and provide homes for wildlife.But for a long time,humans saw them as useless land,filling
them in for farms and cities,which caused water pollution and loss of animal homes.
Thankfully,the story is changing.People now understand the importance of wetlands
and are working to bring them back.A great example is the creation of wetland parks in
China,like the Xixi National Wetland Park in Hangzhou.It shows how humans and nature
can live in harmony.
Protecting wetlands starts with us.We can begin by learning about the wetlands near
us and the life they support.A visit to a wetland park can help us see their beauty and
understand their value firsthand.In our daily lives,saving water is also a powerful way to
help,as using less water means more clean water can flow to these areas.Finally,sharing
what we've learned with friends and family can spread the message of conservation further.
By taking these steps,we can all be part of protecting these wonderful places.
Protecting wetlands is not just about saving nature;it is about protecting our own future.
()5.Why are wetlands called the“Earth's kidneys”?
A.Because they help to clean water.
B.Because they are shaped like kidneys.
C.Because they are not useful to humans.
D.Because they are home to many animals.
()6.What is the correct order of the advice given in the passage on how to protect
wetlands?

wetlands.d.Visit a wetland park.

The Dead Sea is located in the Jordan Rift Valley(约旦河大裂谷)in southwest Asia.
It is about 50 kilometres long and 15 kilometres wide at its widest point.It sits at about 430
metres below sea level,making it the lowest point on Earth's land.
What's interesting is that the Dead Sea isn't actually a sea.It's a lake with a salt
concentration()of more than 30 percent,which is about eight times saltier than
typical seawater.This makes it one of the saltiest bodies of water on Earth.
The Dead Sea stays so salty due to its special natural conditions.Each year,it receives
very little rainfall,and only a small amount of fresh water flows into it.And the hot weather
around the Dead Sea causes the fresh water to evaporate quickly,which makes the salt
concentration even higher.For these reasons,it is also known as the Salt Sea.
If you were to swim in the Dead Sea,you wouldn't see any sea life-no plants or
animals.The high salt concentration makes it impossible for them to survive there.That's
actually why it's called the Dead Sea.
However,don't let the name or not having any sea life scare you.Even if you fall into
the Dead Sea and can't swim,you won't die.The high concentration of salt in the Dead Sea
allows anyone to float well,without the need for life buoys().In fact,many people
visit the Dead Sea every year on vacation.If you walk along the shore,you'll likely see
many people floating in the water,reading books or magazines.
()9.Where is the Dead Sea?
A.In a rift valley in Asia.
B.In the middle of a desert.
C.In a deep valley in America.
D.On a high mountain in Europe.
()l0.Why did the Dead Sea get its name from“dead”?
A.No water runs into it.
B.It has no living things.
C.It has very little rainfall.
D.Its water is too hot to touch.
)11.What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A.Swimming in the Dead Sea is tiring.
B.The Dead Sea is a popular place for tourists.
C.People must use life buoys to float in the Dead Sea.
D.The Dead Sea is dangerous for people who can't swim.

①In the Yellow River Basin(流域),scientists studied how human activities influence
nature.They looked at the area from 2001 to 2020 and found some interesting results.
Though human activities increased in 66.3%of the area,the quality of nature actually got
improved by 22.61%.That is to say,with the right actions,we can better nature even
when there are more and more human activities.
2One interesting finding was that some farmland was turned back into natural land.
Because of the government's nature-friendly program "Grain for Green",people are
encouraged to plant more trees and grass instead of growing crops.This added 15.994
square kilometers of natural land.The change helped to make the air fresher,the water
cleaner,and the homes for animals better.
3Another interesting finding was that 45.88%of the area had both more human
activities and better nature at the same time.This proves that humans and nature can develop
together if humans make good choices,such as recycling rubbish and saving energy.
4The study showed that the wild nature in 33.7%of the Yellow River Basin also
improved a lot.People started wetland protection activities and the area of wetland became 8.3
square kilometers larger.Many endangered birds came to live and some fish swam back.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
5In a word,only by carrying out eco-friendly activities and making good use of
environment can humans and nature live in harmony.

A.By telling a story.
B.By listing numbers.
C.By giving an example.
D.By explaining reasons.

D.It caused more pollution but helped animals find better homes.

Who is willing to drink the polluted water?19.

Trees are one of the oldest plants on Earth.They keep the air clean,reduce noise
pollution,make water cleaner,and provide food and building materials.
Just like us,trees change a lot as they grow.At 1 to 3 years old,young trees learn
how to protect themselves.For example,many young trees grow thorns()to stop animals
from going near.
At the age of 4,trees begin to grow very quickly and become strong enough to face
many difficulties later in life.At the age of 15,trees become young adults.They grow more
slowly and begin to produce flowers and fruit.
名师点评
When a tree is 20 to 25 years old,it becomes a real adult.The tree reaches its largest
size.The adult tree can give us shade(),oxygen and natural beauty.It is a great
place for us to have a rest or play games.With good care,the adult tree will go on to live
healthily for many years.
Little by little,trees begin to grow older and older and even die.At this time,they
still have their important place in nature.When a tree becomes hollow (or part of it
becomes dead,it becomes a home to small animals and a source()of food for many
other animals.
Trees are very important in our lives.They help us and nature at every stage of their
lives,even after they die.We should value and protect trees.
