21、Living in China, it is very easy for us to get clean water. However, in many other places around the world, clean water is unavailable. Take Liberia (利比里亚) as an example. Many people there have no choice but to drink dirty water. Every year, many children die of diarrhea (腹泻).

Destinee Whitaker learned this when she entered high school. The problem worried her a lot. The American girl wanted to make a difference. She shared her wish with her schoolmates. Together, they discussed how to help people in Liberia.

The students decided to donate water purification systems (水质净化系统) to Liberia. To raise money, they held bake sales at their school. Finally, they collected enough money. Whitaker gave a check (支票) to people in Liberia. The local people were excited about the “gift”. They were moved by what the students had done.

Remember: Not everyone in this world has what we have. Not everyone lives the way we live. By putting her “big dream” into action, Whitaker changed the lives of many Liberian people. Then, what can you do to make this world a better place?

22、   Animals do many different things to get through the winter. Some of them migrate. They travel to other places where the weather is warmer or they can find food.

Many birds migrate in autumn. Because the trip can be dangerous, some travel in large groups. For example, wild geese fly in noisy, "V"-shaped groups. Other kinds of birds fly alone.

  Some animals stay active in winter. They must change themselves as the weather changes. Many change their doing or their bodies. For example, snowshoe rabbits grow white fur to help them hide in the snow.

Water makes good protection for many animals. When the weather gets cold, they move to the bottom of lakes and rivers. Frogs and many fish hide under rocks or fallen leaves. Cold water holds more oxygen than warm water, and frogs can breathe through their skin.

Every type of insect has its own life cycle and that is the way it grows and changes. Different insects spend the winter in different forms of their lives. Some insects also spend the winter without moving. Some insects spend the winter as pupae(蛹).Other insects die after laying eggs in autumn. The eggs change into new insects in spring and everything begins all over again.

根据短文内容，判断句子正（T）误（F）。

【1】Some birds fly in large groups in order to be safe._____

【2】Snowshoe rabbits spend the cold winter by sleeping for the whole winter. _____

【3】Frogs and fish will die in winter. _____

23、Different weather makes people feel different. It influences(影响) health, intelligence (智力) and feelings.

In August, it is very hot and wet in the southern part of the United States. People there have heart trouble and other kinds of health problems during this month. In the Northeast and the Middle West, it is very hot at some times and very cold at other times. People in these states have more heart trouble after the weather changes in February or March.

The weather can also influence intelligence. For example, in a 1983 report by scientists, the IQ (智商) of a group of students was very high when a very strong wind came, but after the strong wind, their IQ was 10% lower. The wind can help people have higher intelligence. Very hot weather, on the other hand (另一方面), can make it lower. Students in many schools of the United States often get worse on exams in the hot months of the year (July and August).

Weather also has a strong influence on people’s feelings. Winter may be a bad time for thin people. They usually feel cold during these months. They might feel unhappy during cold weather. But fat people may have a hard time in hot summer. At about 18℃, people become stronger.

Low air pressure(气压) may make people forgetful. People leave more bags on buses and in shops on low-pressure days. There is “good weather” for work and health. People feel best at a temperature of about 18℃.

Are you feeling sad, tired, forgetful, or unhappy today? It may be the weather’s problem.

【1】What can cause problems on health?

A．Hot and wet weather.

B．Wind.

C．Warm weather.

D．Clear water.

【2】A report shows that people may have higher intelligence when ________ comes.

B．a strong wind

C．very hot weather

D．low air pressure

【3】What does the writer want to tell us in the third paragraph?

B．Weather influences people’s feelings.

C．The IQ changes when weather changes.

D．People feel good on low-pressure days.

【4】Which is the best title for this passage?

A．Hot Weather Causes Health Problems

B．Different Weather Makes People Feel Bad

C．Weather Influences Feelings

D．Weather Influences Health, Intelligence and Feelings

24、What picture do you have of the future? Will life in the future be better, worse or the same as now? What do you hope for about the future? Scientists think that life will probably be very different in 2050.

First of all, it seems that people won’t use TV channels(频道) by 2050. Instead, people will choose a program from a “menu”and a computer will send the program directly to the television.

Water will become a very serious problem. We’ll need much more water, but there won’t be enough. Some scientists think that water would be the cause of war(战争).

Cars will run on new, clean energy and they will go very fast. And there won’t be any accidents with the help of computers. On the other hand, space planes will take people around the world in two hours.

Robots will work in factories instead of people. Many factories have already used robots. Big companies prefer robots－they do not ask for money, and they work for 24 hours a day…

In a word, by 2050, our life will change a lot and our future will be quite different from now.

A creative publicist named Tom was walking by the blind and s【2】 to see that the man only had a few coins in his hat. He put a few of his o【3】 coins in the hat.
