The garden was overgrown with grass and weeds, but I could see some wild flowers and even a few birds flying around. One day, I met an old man who lived in the same building. He told me the garden used to be a place where children played, but no one took care of it after the playground was moved. "It's a shame," he said. "This garden could be a home for many small animals and plants." I decided to do something. I asked some neighbors to help me clean up the garden. We cut the grass, pulled out the weeds, and planted more native flowers. We also put up bird feeders and a small pond for frogs. Now, six months later, the garden is full of life. Butterflies fly from flower to flower, birds sing every morning, and sometimes I even see a small fox passing by. Neighbors often come here to relax, and kids love to watch the frogs in the pond. It's amazing how a little effort can bring nature back to the city. ( )1.How did the writer feel when he found the wild garden? A. Angry. B. Surprised. C. Bored. D. Sad. ( )2. Why was the garden neglected at first? A. Because it was too small. B. Because the playground was moved. C. Because no one liked wild plants. D. Because the old man didn't care about it. ( )3.

Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. The garden was a home for foxes from the beginning. B. The writer cleaned up the garden alone. C. The garden is now a lively place for nature and people. D. Kids don't like to visit the garden. ( )5. What's the main idea of the passage? A. How to build a garden in the city. B.

In this book, the writer tells us that trees are not just silent plants—they have their own ways of communicating and helping each other. For example, trees send nutrients to weak trees through their roots, and they warn each other about dangers like insects or drought. Wohlleben also explains how human activities are hurting forests. Cutting down too many trees and using chemicals can break the balance of the forest ecosystem. But he also gives hope: small actions like planting a tree or reducing waste can help protect forests. This book is not just a science book—it's a story that makes us see nature in a new way. It reminds us that trees are our friends, and we need to take care of them if we want to live a healthy life. 1.

I'm glad to share something about China's nature protection with you. China has set up many nature reserves to protect wild animals like pandas and tigers. We also make laws to stop people from hunting or harming them. My favourite nature place is Zhangjiajie, where I can see strange mountains and clear rivers. In daily life, I always recycle waste, plant trees with my classmates every spring, and never pick wild flowers. Small actions can make a big difference for nature. I'm looking forward to hearing from you soon. Yours, Li Ming 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
