However, some parents think children should learn more useful things. They teach their children to do chores by themselves early. What are chores? Chores are things we need to do every day, like washing the dishes and sweeping the floor. Here are some benefits that helping out with chores will bring to children. ②First, doing chores teaches children life skills. Children will need to do many hard things by themselves one day, so they should learn more life skills as early as possible. Doing chores like cooking, feeding pets, and cleaning the house can help them become more independent and teach them how to solve problems. ③Second, doing chores helps children learn to respect others. If children are asked to clean up the house, they may know better about the mess they make. And they will respect others’ work more. ④Third, doing chores helps children be better at making plans and organizing their time. There are a lot of things to do every day, and it’s hard to fit them all in. Children need to do their homework, do housework, and make friends. Learning to do these well helps them know what the most important thing is and how to organize their time well. 根据短文内容，选择正确答案。 31. What are chores according to the passage? A. School subjects. B.

I searched the Internet for everything: the route (路线), the best time to visit, the weather and so on. And finally the big day came! My friends Janice and Devin came to my home early that Saturday. My mum would drive us to the Point Reyes National Seashore first. At about 7:30 in the morning, we set out (出发)! We three kids’ laughter (笑声) filled the small car. But about 20 minutes after we set out, it started to rain! And it seemed the rain wouldn’t stop soon. The drive was slow in the morning rain. Although Mum tried to cheer us up, we three kids felt unhappy all the way. Who wanted to walk in the rain anyway? But when we arrived at the Point Reyes National Seashore, the sun came out through the clouds. It made us happy. As we walked along the Coast Trail, we sang a lot. The sights along the way were fantastic. Devin told us excitedly that he saw a group of whales in the sea. After walking for an hour, we were nearly there! The idea of climbing down to the beach below made us nervous at first. The sharp rocks stuck up (突出) everywhere, and one wrong step could make someone fall. But Mum found a safe route down the rocky cliff (岩石峭壁). From the beach, we finally saw it: Alamere Falls. This great waterfall dropped 12 metres straight down! 根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。 36.

There are more than 300,000 kinds of plants, such as trees, flowers, grass and ferns (蕨类植物). Plants are very important for our planet’s health. They make their own food by photosynthesis (光合作用). To do this, they use sunlight, water and carbon dioxide (二氧化碳). When they make food, they produce oxygen (氧气). All animals need oxygen to breathe. Without plants, there would be no oxygen on the earth, and most living things could not survive (生存). Many animals need plants to live. Some animals eat plant leaves, flowers or fruits. Others use plants as their homes. Plants also help protect the environment. Their roots (根) hold the soil (土壤) tightly, so the soil does not get washed away easily. They can also make the air cleaner by taking in harmful gases. People use plants in many daily ways. We get food like vegetables, fruits and rice from plants. Cotton, which is used to make clothes, also comes from plants. Some plants can even be made into medicine to help people get better when they are sick. So it’s very important for us to protect plants and keep them healthy. 根据短文内容，判断下列句子正（T）、误（F）。 41. There are over 300,000 kinds of plants on the earth. 42. Plants produce oxygen when they make food. 43. All animals eat plants and use plants as their homes. 44. Plant roots can help stop soil from being washed away and make the air cleaner. 45. Most of the plants can be made into medicine and help people keep healthy. （E） China is a large country.

These girls took the baby sloth to Judy, the owner of a hotel. Judy wanted to help, but she didn’t know how to look after the sloth, so she called the zoo. With the help of the zoo, Judy took good care of the baby sloth. She named the baby sloth Buttercup. After her first success, more people brought Judy wounded (受伤的) sloths or baby sloths they found. Judy then opened a help center. Today, the help center has saved more than 500 sloths. Sloths live in the forests of Central America. We can also see them in South America. They hang onto the trees with their claws (爪子). There are two main types of sloths. You can know them by the number of their claws. Sloths hardly move. They spend most of their time sleeping in the trees. But now, with the increase of population, human beings cause a lot of problems for these slow and quiet animals. The main problem is that the forests are becoming smaller and smaller. When trees are cut down, sloths will fall and hurt themselves. Some sloths live near human beings and they sometimes are hit by cars or killed by dogs. 根据短文内容，回答下列问题。 51. Who did the three girls in Costa Rica take the baby sloth to twenty years ago? ___________________________________________________________________________ 52. What is the name of the baby sloth? ___________________________________________________________________________ 53.
