There are more benefits than you can imagine. Kids can not only get some skills, but they can also get a sense of satisfaction.

China 0. 2 Japan 0. 4 France 0. 5 Britain 0. 6 America 1. 2 In fact, helping at home is a universal thing. Everyone in the family should play a part in doing the chores.

Tom asked more friends to come over. They stood on each other’s shoulders, trying to make a human pyramid (金字塔) . But the apple was so high that they couldn’t go higher and the pyramid fell.

They keep our air clean, make less pollution, make water cleaner and provide food and building materials. Just like us, trees change a lot as they grow. At one to three years old, young trees learn how to protect themselves. For example, many trees grow thorns (刺) to stop animals from going near. At the age of four years old, trees begin to grow very quickly and become strong enough to face many difficulties (困难) later in life. At the age of 15, trees become young adults (成年人). They grow more slowly and begin to produce (生长) flowers and fruit. When the tree is 20 to 25 years old, it becomes a real adult. The tree reaches its largest size. It gives us shade and provides a great place for a tree house, or a place for us to read a book, listen to music and so on. If we all learn how to protect the adult tree, it will live healthily for many years. Little by little, trees begin to grow older and older and even die. At this time, older trees are still very important in nature. When a tree becomes hollow or part of it dies, it can be a home to small animals. In many ways, the life of a tree is similar (相似的) to our own life. When looking at the life of a tree, we should enjoy every minute of its life and take care of the tree! 36. From the article, we know trees learn to protect themselves at ________. A. 1-3 years old B. 4 years old C. 15 years old D. 20-25 years old 37. What does the underlined word “hollow” in Paragraph 5 mean? A. 实心的 B. 空心的 C. 茁壮的 D. 健康的 38. About the growth of the tree, which of the following is the right order (顺序)? a. Grow very quickly. b. Become a real adult. c. Learn how to protect itself. d. Grow older and die. e. Produce flowers and fruit. A. b-a-c-d-e B. c-e-a-b-d C. c-a-e-b-d D. a-c-e-b-d 39. What can we infer (推测) from this article? A. We can find flowers and fruit on 4-year-old trees. B. Older trees can be great places for people to live. C. An adult tree can live long and well if we all learn how to protect them. D. The life of the tree is the same as the life of people. 40. What’s the structure (结构) of the article? (P: Paragraph段落) A. B. C. D. (D) It is a bright sunny morning. A man is carrying a bag of salt onto his donkey. He is going to sell the salt at the market. The man is very happy, but the donkey is not. The salt on his back is very heavy. The two keep walking. There is a river ahead. They must cross it. The donkey says, “Oh, no! A river! I am tired and weak. The river will be hard to cross.” Just then, the donkey slips and falls into the water. The man shouts, “Oh, no! Get up, donkey! Get up quickly! Get up before the salt melts (融化) !” The man keeps pulling at the donkey. After a while the donkey finally gets up and they cross the river. Suddenly, the donkey feels his back is light. He is so happy. However, the next day, the man carries more salt onto the donkey and heads for the market again. This time the donkey comes up with an idea. He falls down into the water again. The man pulls at the donkey, but it doesn’t get up for a long time. Later all of the salt is melted. The man is so angry that he decides to teach the donkey a lesson. The next day, the man carries the donkey’s back again, It’s very light. After a while, the two reach the river once again. The man tells the donkey, “Don’t fall down again today. If you do, you will be sorry. " But the donkey doesn’t think so. This time, the man doesn’t help the donkey get up. Instead, after a while, the donkey tries to get up by himself. But this time, his back feels so heavy. The donkey can’t understand the reason now. (Adapted from Aesop’s Fables) 根据文章内容，判断句子正（T），误（F）。 41. The man wanted to use the salt for his own cooking. 42. The donkey felt happy at first because the salt on its back was light and easy to carry. 43. The donkey fell into the water by accident the second time to make its back lighter. 44. Something “light” the man prepared on the third day might be something that absorbs (吸收) water. 45. The story tells us that we shouldn’t be like the donkey, who only focuses on tricks. We should keep our feet on the ground and be responsible.

In 1903, a British official named George Litton said Yunnan was very beautiful. Under the winter sun, its forests and mountains seemed to attract people. Long ago, people thought Yunnan was a place with simple food. But as more people traveled there, its special food charm (魅力) spread. Yunnan has many ethnic (民族的) groups and is a place where different cultures meet. These two things make its food special. Chef Zhang Yingfei says Yunnan food is “green”. It uses fresh, natural things for cooking. Yunnan has different kinds of land, like places with tall, thick plants and areas with high altitude (海拔) . With so many ethnic groups, some even say there’s no single “Yunnan food” to describe it. Architect Lu Jing notes, “Our food has all tastes, including rare (罕见的) bitter ones and things you can only eat in certain seasons.” Mushrooms are the most famous part of Yunnan food. It has over 250 kinds of wild mushrooms — that’s two-thirds of all eatable wild mushrooms in China. Though some people get sick from eating the wrong wild mushrooms, their freshness still draws many people. Mushroom tourism is growing too: Nanhua County, called the “Kingdom of Wild Mushrooms”, gets lots of visitors. A town named Longpeng has a mushroom festival every year. People living in cities love Yunnan’s healthy food. Some take trips to Yunnan to make local cheese or pick tea. On the other hand, Yunnan food comes to cities. National chain restaurants do well. Like Yun Hai Yao, workers wear beautiful necklaces and earrings from ethnic groups to attract customers. Shanghai even has restaurants with Lijiang style. Chef Zhang says, “Chefs will take Yunnan food to other countries. It’ll become more creative!” 根据短文内容，完成下列问题. 51.

There’s a saying, “A friend in need is a friend indeed.” I think friends can be both similar and different. My friend Tom and I are similar. We both enjoy sports, especially basketball, and often play together. This makes our friendship stronger. But my friend Lucy is different. She’s very outgoing and loves new things. Her being different has encouraged me to try new stuff too. In my view, whether friends are alike or not, the key is that they support each other. With such friends, we can grow together. 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
