21、There are many wetlands(湿地)in China and some of them have become the world’s important wetlands．The Chinese Yellow Sea Wetlands are among them．They are in Yancheng，Jiangsu Province．They are home for many different kinds of birds and animals．The world’s largest Milu Deer Nature Reserve(自然保护区)is in them．More than 700 milu deer live freely there．There are not many red-crowned cranes in the world，but every winter you can see some in the Red-crowned Cranes Nature Reserve in the Yellow Sea Wetlands．

  The temperature in the wetlands is usually neither too high nor too low．There is a lot of rain and sunshine，too．They are really good places for wildlife(野生生物)．Offering food and home for some special kinds of animals and birds is not the only reason why we need to protect wetlands．Wetlands are important because they also prevent flood．But some people want to change the wetlands to make more space for farms and buildings．This means there will be less and less space for wildlife．

  Luckily，more and more people are beginning to realize the importance of wetlands and wildlife．Every year，on February 2nd，many activities are held to tell people more about wetlands．

22、We’re sitting too much and it’s dangerous. Most Americans spend more than seven hours sitting every day, and the more you sit, the weaker your body will be.

Fortunately, there are simple changes you can make during the day — anywhere, even at the workplace — to improve your health.

Park a few blocks away from the office each morning and walk to work.

This allows you to start off your mornings actively and be ready to take on the work. If you take the bus, get off one stop earlier to take some light exercise before 8 a.m.

Stand up and move around the office once every 60 — 90 minutes.

When you’re busy with work, it’s easy to forget the time. Set the alarm to remind(提醒) you to stand up and take a walk around the office. You can use this time to fill up your water bottle or go to the bathroom.

Ask questions and discuss questions face to face.

Go to your co-worker’s office to discuss questions face to face, rather than send an e-mail every time you have a question. This gives you a good excuse to move.

Use your lunch break to move around outside.

So many Americans today work during their lunch break. When possible, take advantage of(利用) this time to walk outside and enjoy the nice weather. Fresh air can make you keep a clear mind.

【1】The underlined word “Fortunately” in Paragraph 2 means __________.

A．unluckily

23、   The Earth has warmed by about half a degree (0.5度) over the last 100 years. It could be getting warmer on its own, but many scientists think people are making the Earth warmer by making a greenhouse effect (温室效应). The greenhouse effect is very important, Without it, the Earth would not be warm enough for us to live on. But just a little warmer than it is now could cause problems for humans, plants and animals.

Many of the things we do every day can change the Earth’s temperature. We send greenhouse gases (气体) into the air when we watch TV, turn on lights, dry hair, play video games, wash or dry our clothes or drive cars. The rubbish (waste) from factories and homes also produces (生产) greenhouse gases.

Even a small change in temperature can affect (影响) our weather. This can cause changes in the sea, the air, flooding (洪水) and our fresh water.

The change in the temperature can also cause changes in the living places for animals and plants.

Global warming (全球变暖) is a big problem, and we can do every little bit to help. We can also save many things. Remember: If you do a little, you can bring a better world.

【1】Which of the following does not send greenhouse gases into the air?

A. Turning on a light. B. Walking to school.

C. Driving a car. D. Watching TV.

【2】In this passage, the scientists are mainly trying to make the readers realize （意识到）________.

A. the earth could be getting warmer by itself

B. the earth is getting warmer in 100 years

C. the greenhouse effect is important

D. humans are making the earth warmer

【3】Without the greenhouse effect, we would ________.

A. not be able to live B. be safer

C. have a cleaner earth D. have a better world

【4】Global warming is a big problem, but ________.

A. we can’t do anything to help B. we don’t need to do anything

C. we can do something to help D. we can do something to stop it

24、Swimming and English Learning

          Can you swim? Do you like swimming? Yes? Well, how can you learn to swim? I think the best way is to go into the water and learn. I’m afraid you’ll never learn to swim just by reading books about swimming or looking at others who are swimming. It’s the same with the English study. We must practice, practice and practice.

          Listening and speaking are very important for beginners. The children in English-speaking countries first listen to others. Then they try to imitate and speak. We can listen to English programs on the radio. You may just understand a few words. It doesn’t matter. Just be relaxed, and try to catch every word.

          Somebody may be a good listener. But he or she dare not speak. He or she is afraid of making mistakes. You know we sometimes make mistakes when we speak Chinese. Don’t be afraid. We must be brave. If you really want to learn English well, you must try to speak with everyone so long as he knows English. Whether you know him or not is not important. When there’s nobody to talk with, you can talk to yourself in English. It’s interesting and also a good way to practice your spoken English. Remember, the more you speak, the fewer mistakes you’ll make.

          Reading and writing are more important for senior school students. First, we must choose the books we’re interested in. A lot of reading will improve your language sense. This is the most important.

          Keep writing English diaries. We can also write English articles. You may even post them to English magazines. Don’t be afraid of failure. Failure is the mother of success.

          Easier said than done. Well, let’s do more practice from now on. I’m sure you’ll learn English well in this way.

【1】You can learn to swim by  .

A．reading books about it

B．looking at others who are swimming

C．having lessons on it

D．going into the water and learning

【2】We can listen to English  , according to the passage.

A．by train

B．on the radio

C．every minute

D．now and then

【3】What should you do with mistakes when you speak?

A．Don’t make mistakes.

B．Study hard.

C．Try not to speak English.

D．Don’t be afraid.

【4】We should learn English by  .

A．listening and speaking

B．reading and writing

C．A and B

D．making mistakes

【5】What’s more important for senior school students?

25、阅读下面短文，根据语境、音标或所给单词的提示，在每个空格内填入一个恰当的词，要求所填的词意义准确、形式正确，使短文意思完整、行文连贯。

Hello, I’m from Canada. I love reading. Good stories can let me keep away【1】my everyday life and take me into a different and 【2】（color）new world.

Reading is also a good way of knowing more about other people: how they live and the【3】[ ri:zənz] why they do the things. Jane Austen wrote her novels in 18th-century England, 【4】some of the things she described are true even today. Her books are still very popular and several of them were made into【5】（movie）.

Before I came to China, I read several of Austen’s novels again and enjoyed them more than when I【6】（one）read them. I especially enjoyed Emma. I【7】['bɒrəʊd] the book from a library and I could see that many people had read Emma before me. I don’t know if it’s【8】[truː] in China, but in Canada, there were food stains（污渍）on the book almost every page.

If you are【9】（interest） in English literature（文学）, I will advise you to go to www. sparknotes.com. This website is built to help students with all their school subjects, but【10】is also very good for us to learn English literature.
