It usually comes around April 20th. At this time, the weather gets warmer, and it often rains. These rains help the crops(庄稼)grow well, so it is called Grain Rain. During Grain Rain, farmers are busy planting rice and other crops. The rain gives life to everything in nature. Flowers are blooming(开花) everywhere, and trees turn green. There are some interesting traditions during Grain Rain. People like to drink tea. They believe that the tea picked during Grain Rain tastes the best. Also, people fly kites in the open air. It is a lot of fun. Grain Rain is an important time because it shows the beauty of nature and the hope of a good harvest(收获). 26. What is Grain Rain? A. A month. B. A color. C. A kind of rain. D.

When bees fly from one flower to another to collect nectar(花蜜), they carry pollen on their bodies, This pollen helps plants grow seeds and fruits. Without bees, about 80 percent of the world's plants can't grow well. That means we would have fewer fruits, vegetables, and nuts to eat. Second, bees make honey. Honey is a delicious and healthy food. Bees work together to make honey— they collect nectar from flowers and store it in honeycombs. A group of bees can make more than 10 kilograms of honey in a year. Third, bees help keep the ecosystem balanced. Many animals, like birds and bears, eat honey or bees. If there were no bees, these animals would lose an important food source. This would break the balance of nature. However, the number of bees is dropping. This is because of pollution, bad weather, and the use of chemicals in farms. We can help bees by planting more flowers, avoiding chemicals, and building beehives in gardens. Bees are small, but they play a big role in our lives. We must protect them! 31. What is the first reason why bees are important? A. They make honey. B. They help with pollination. C. They keep the ecosystem balanced. D. They are food for other animals. 32. Which of the following steps shows how bees make honey? ①Store nectar in honeycombs. ②Collect nectar from flowers. ③ Work together in groups. A.③→②→① B.②→①→③ C.①→②→③ D.③→①→② 33. What would happen if there were no bees? A. We would have more fruits. B. Plants would grow better. C. Some animals would lose food. D. The weather would be better. 34. What is the main idea of this passage? A. How to make honey. B. Why bees are important and how to protect them. C. How bees fly from flower to flower. D. What animals eat bees. 35. What is the best title for this passage? A. Bees and Honey B. Pollination by Bees C. Bees: Our Important Friends D. How to Protect Bees C There is almost no water in the desert(沙漠), but many animals can live in it. How do these animals get water and stay alive? Everything is hot and dry in the daytime, but the night is cold. Plants often have dew(露水) on them in the early morning. This is because cold air can't hold as much water as hot air. Small insects can drink the dew, and bigger animals eat the plants with the dew on them. Some small animals get water from the bodies of insects. Bigger animals get water from the bodies of small animals. This North American bird is called a roadrunner(走鹃). It runs fast and catches small snakes, lizards and scorpions. Some animals can wait many years for water. When the rain falls, baby shrimps(虾) come out of their eggs. They grow quickly and lay new eggs. Then the water dries up, and the shrimps die. But the new eggs do not die. They wait in the ground for the next rain. They can wait for 50 years. Most big animals can't live in the desert because they need a few litres(升) of water every day. They can't keep water in their bodies for a long time. But camels are different. They can drink90 litres of water in ten minutes, and then drink nothing for a week. 36. From the passage, we know that the desert is a place with A. no animals B. not much water C. no plants D. a lot of plants 37. Insects can drink . A. when there is dew B. when the sun goes down C. when bigger animals eat D. when the night comes 38. The North American bird roadrunner doesn't eat . A. snakes B. lizards C. insects D. scorpions 39. Which of the following are the ways that desert animals get water? ①Small insects drink the dew on plants in the early morning. ②Bigger animals get water by eating plants with dew.影 ③Small animals get water from the bodies of bigger animals. ④Camels drink a large amount of water at one time and then don't drink for a week. A.①②③ B.①②④ C.①③④ D.②③④ 40. Which is TRUE according to the passage? A. Without water, the shrimps and their eggs can't live. B. Most of the big animals, like camels, need water every day. C. Bigger animals get water from the bodies of insects and small animals. D. Hot air can hold more water than cold air. 五、补全对话(本大题共5小题，每小题1分，共5分) 根据对话内容，从方框内选择恰当的句子将对话补充完整。(选项中有两项是多余的) A.
