The panda is one of the most loved animals in the world. It has black and white fur and looks like a soft toy. But wild pandas are rare and need our protection.
Pandas live in the bamboo forests of central China. They eat almost nothing but bamboo, and they must eat for about 12 hours a day to get enough energy. A baby panda is tiny at birth, no bigger than a mouse.
Years ago, there were very few pandas left because people cut down the forests. Thanks to hard work by scientists and the government, their number is growing again.

Mysteries of the Deep Sea
Most of our planet is covered by ocean, but we know less about the deep sea than about the moon. Down there, it is dark, cold and full of strange life.
The anglerfish carries a light on its head. It uses the light to attract small fish, then swallows them in the dark. The giant squid has eyes as big as dinner plates.
Coral reefs are like underwater cities, home to thousands of colorful fish and other creatures. They grow slowly but can be destroyed quickly by pollution.
Scientists believe many deep-sea animals are still unknown to us. Every time they send a robot down, they find new species. The ocean is truly a world of wonders waiting to be explored.
( )28. Why is the deep sea hard to study?
A. It is too hot B. It is dark and cold C. It has no life D. It is too small
( )29. What does the writer think of the deep sea?
A. It is too dangerous to visit B. There is little food in it C. It is full of wonderful things to discover D. It will soon be polluted
( )30. What are coral reefs compared to?
A. Underwater cities B. The moon C. Dinner plates D. Robots
( )31. What does the writer think of the ocean?
A. Boring B. Full of wonders C. Dangerous D. Too small
D
Lucy is a 14-year-old student who loves birds. Every Sunday morning, she goes to the park with her notebook and counts the different kinds she sees. So far, she has recorded more than fifty species.
Her favorite is the kingfisher, a small bird with bright blue feathers. It sits still by the river, then dives like an arrow to catch a fish. Lucy says watching it never gets old.
Last month, she joined a group that builds nest boxes for swifts. These little birds lose their homes when old buildings are pulled down. The boxes give them a safe place to lay eggs.
Lucy hopes to become a scientist one day. 'Birds tell us if the environment is healthy,' she says. 'If we listen, they teach us how to care for the earth.' Her small hobby may grow into a big difference.
( )32. What does Lucy do every Sunday?
A. Feeds birds B. Counts bird species C. Draws birds D. Sells notebooks
( )33. What is special about the kingfisher?
A. Its blue feathers B. Its big size C. Its loud song D. Its long tail
( )34. What can we learn from Lucy's story?
A. Birdwatching is an expensive hobby B. Small actions can make a big difference C. Scientists need students' notebooks D. Old buildings should be pulled down
( )35. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage? (①=Paragraph 1, ②=Paragraph 2, ③=Paragraph 3, ④=Paragraph 4)

Pandas and cheetahs are both amazing animals, but they live very different lives. The panda is the national treasure of China. It lives deep in the bamboo forests of Sichuan, and almost all of its food is bamboo — a panda may spend twelve hours a day just eating! Pandas are also good at climbing trees. Cheetahs come from Africa. They eat meat and run after other animals for food. The cheetah is the fastest animal on land — it can run at 120 kilometers in a single hour, much faster than a car in the city! Sadly, both animals are in danger now, because their living places are getting smaller and smaller. Let's protect them before it is too late.

My Favorite Animal
My favorite animal is the panda. It has black and white fur and looks like a soft toy. Pandas live in the bamboo forests of central China. They mainly eat bamboo and spend most of the day eating and resting. I like them because they are cute and peaceful. But pandas are endangered, so we must protect them. We can plant more trees and stop cutting down forests. If we work together, these lovely animals will have a safe home forever.
