21、   It was a village in India. The people were poor. However, they were not unhappy. After all, their forefathers（祖先） had lived in the same way for centuries. 

Then one day, some visitors from the city arrived. They told the villagers there were some people elsewhere who liked to eat frog's legs. However, they did not have enough frogs of their own, and so they wanted to buy frogs from other places.

This seemed like money for nothing. There were millions of frogs in the fields around, and they were no use to the villagers. All they had to do was catch them. Agreement was reached, and the children were sent into the fields to catch frogs. Every week a truck arrived to collect the catch and hand over the money. For the first time, the people were able to dream of a better future. But the dream didn't last long. 

No one noticed the change at first, but it seemed to be more insects around recently. So they had to use the money they made to buy pesticides(杀虫剂)and medicines. Soon there was no money left.

The change was hardly noticed at first, but it seemed as if the crops were not doing so well. More worrying was that the children fell ill more often, and, there seemed to be more insects around lately. 

Then the people realized what was happening. It was the frog. They hadn't been useless. They had been doing an important job-eating insects. Now with so many frogs killed, the insects were increasing more rapidly. They were damaging the crops and spreading(传播) diseases.

Now, the people are still poor. But in the evenings they sit in the village square and listen to sounds of insects and frogs. These sounds of the night now have a much deeper meaning.

【1】From Paragraph 1 we learn that the villagers _____.

A.worked very hard for centuries

B.dreamed of having a better life

C.were poor but somewhat content

D.lived a different life from their forefathers

【2】Why did the villagers agree to sell frogs?

A.The frogs were easy money.

B.They needed money to buy medicine.

C.They wanted to please the visitors.

D.The frogs made too much noise.

【3】What might be the cause of the children's sickness?

A.The crops didn't do well.

B.There were too many insects.

C.The visitors brought in diseases.

D.The pesticides were overused.

【4】What can we infer from the last sentence of the text?

A.Happiness comes from peaceful life in the country.

B.Health is more important than money.

C.The harmony between man and nature is important.

D.Good old days will never be forgotten.

23、Sitting at a desk in a classroom all day can be pretty boring. The teachers at a primary school in the US noticed that, so they changed their students’ desks for exercise bikes as part of the Read and Ride program!

This program began six years ago. A special classroom has enough bikes for every student in any class. Teachers bring in their students to read the books while riding the bikes. There’s also one exercise bike in the back of each classroom for students to exercise.

Their teacher Mr. Ertl said many children found it boring when they read books. This program makes reading fun. They feel happy when they read books while riding the exercise bikes. As a result, the school found that students that spent more time reading and riding did better than others in reading tests.

This program not only helps students do better in study, but also helps them keep healthy. Mr. Ertl said many students were fat and it was difficult for them to take exercise. On the bikes, they try their best to exercise at their own level.

【1】Teachers changed desks for exercise bikes for the students to ___.

A. make reading fun

B. keep students cool

C. make students study better

C. They learned more words.   D. They felt happy when they read.

【3】The best title of the passage is ___.

24、Parking lots again came up for discussion in Shanghai. Another 220, 000 private cars will hit the roads this year, and the need to buy a car is still very high among people. More than 270,000 cars have no designated(指定)parking areas at night. In a middle school in Changing District, trees were cut in a green area to make way for car parking. The school had not considered car parking when it was being built,

A private car is used about an hour daily for driving and stays parked for 23 hours. Many private cars are used even less. Car-sharing offers users all kinds of cars. The cars are parked in car-sharing stations, lying throughout the city. Customers of car-sharing can book(预定)a car at any time ( day or night) by telephone or on the Internet. The customer then picks the booked car up at the set time. After finishing his/her business, they return the car to the same place where they picked it up. Maybe, this is one way to solve the car parking problem.

On the other hand, the idea of Park & Ride has been suggested. This means that underground train and city train should be developed quickly. You can leave your cars in car parks nearby subway and bus stations and then you can ride public transports to go to the city centre within minutes—great in wet weather or when you're carrying heavy bags. Park & Ride services can save you a little more time to do something you enjoy: catch up on e-mails, chat with friends, read the paper or simply relax, and prepare for the day ahead. Then the city will cut down the number of parking lots in the city centre.

【1】Why does the writer mention what the middle school did in Paragraph 1?

A. To say car parking has been a problem for along time.

B. To show the car parking problem is becoming more serious.

C. To warm the middle school didn't care about environment.

D. To tell people to learn from the school for more parking areas.

【2】How does the writer like the car-sharing service?

A. Expensive.   B. OK.

C. Not possible.   D. Not convenient.

【3】According to the text, private cars   .

A. are not useful at all

B. are not used very often

C. are responsible for the city train development

D. help drivers reach the city centre more quickly

【4】According to the idea of Park & Ride, we can infer(推断)the city will have to   .

A. build more parking lots near subway and bus stops

B. offer more cars to the customers in the city centre

C. encourage people not to drive cars to the city

D. ask people not to buy more cars
