It's a day when people around the world work to help the planet, including kids. Here are what four kids have done for the planet.‎ Speaking Out Jaysa Hunter-Mellers , 14, spoke at the City Hall to ask leaders to shut the last coal power station nearby which brought her an asthma （哮喘）attack. She didn't think that people would listen to her, a kid. But the coal power station later said it would close. Jaysa learned to speak to her local government at a young age and now she wants to teach others to speak up too.‎ Helping Butterflies When Alden Wang was 6, he learned that local butterflies were in trouble because they needed a kind of grass, milkweed, to survive. But milkweed was disappearing. So Alden started growing milkweed in his house, on which the butterflies lay eggs. Alden is now 13 and he cares for eggs and lets them go when they turn into butterflies.‎ Doing Good for Gorillas （大猩猩）‎ When Addy Barrett was in the first grade, she learnt that the mountain gorillas were in danger. She wanted to protect them and set up a program called Gorilla Heroes. So far, Gorilla Heroes has raised more than $ 11 , 000 to help mountain gorillas. Addy says, “The feeling of having a fine effect on the world is like no other. It feels so good to know that I am making a ‎ difference. ”‎ Educating the Youth In the fourth grade, Jeremy Clark and Charlie Abrams saw a picture of the Statue of Liberty （自 由女神像）up to her waist in water. It was meant to show what the statue would look like if all the ice in the world is turned into water. In 2019, they started a team called Affected Generation to urge young people to become climate activists. The two also want schools to teach about climate change.‎ ‎21.

Jeremy Clark and Charlie Abrams.‎ B ‎“What's your 'Thing of the Day'?" I asked my fourteen-year-old son as he got a piece of potato onto his plate. This is a question our four kids and whichever friends are staying for supper expect to be asked each evening at suppertime. Usually, it's followed with, “Uhh.… Umm.. . We had pizza for lunch. ” And then I have to refuse the response and ask for something meaningful—either something he learned or something that happened with his friends.‎ But, this day, my son surprised me as he went into great detail about how he had been honestly wronged by a couple of classmates and laughed at in front of the class. I asked more questions and learned that the teachers were aware of the situation. The issue had been dealt with as much as the teachers and staff were able to. It was really just a matter of kids being mean and ‎ deciding to play a trick on someone.‎ I thought about the situation all night. I vacillated between meeting the teachers? meeting the parents of the classmates, and not doing anything since the story had been told to me in a matter-of-fact way—not overly excitedly.‎ I waited until the next day after school. On the car ride home, I questioned my son what about today after yesterday's situation. My son was surprised that I brought it up again. “What? No, it's over, Mom. They're my friends. They were just being stupid. They apologized. Forgive and forget, you know? We're all good.‎ I was worried that perhaps he was trying to hide his concern or sadness about the thing. But as I watched him over the next days and weeks, everything seemed “normal". Wouldn't it be great if everyone could live the “forgive and forget" way of life?‎ ‎24. How are children's usual answers to the author's daily question?‎ A. Serious. B. Worrisome.‎ C. Meaningless. D. Detailed.‎ ‎25. Why was the author sleepless that night?‎ A. Her son was made fun of unkindly. B. Her son invited his friends to dinner.‎ C. Her son was punished by his teacher. D. Her son lied to her about his mistake.‎ ‎26. What does the underlined word “vacillate" in paragraph 3 probably mean?‎ A. Give suggestions. B. Make sense.‎ C. Persuade oneself. D. Be undecided.‎ ‎27. What did the author learn from the whole story?‎ A. It is good to forgive and forget.‎ B. It is necessary to watch her son.‎ C. It is difficult to understand children.‎ D. It is surprising for her son to apologize.‎ C Churchill, Manitoba is a small town. The northern winds roll through it from Canada's Hudson Bay （海湾）.It might be just another point on the map if not for its seasonal settlers.‎ It happens like clockwork every fall that hundreds of polar bears make their way through the town to the freezing bay where they hunt for seals(海豹） after the ice packs enough to support ‎ their weight. The animals have been connected with Churchill since at least 1619. That's when Norwegian explorer Jens Munk and his sailors recorded making a meal of one bear while they wintered in the area. “It was of good taste and did not disagree with us. " That's what Munk wrote in his journal.‎ Over the years, the animals' coming has earned the town the name of “Polar Bear Capital of the World. Today, Churchill's bear population goes beyond its human population. There used to be about 7,000 residents but now only 813 living there. There was no such thing as an organized tour group to see the bears until 1980. The town might have been in terrible financial hardships. But the growing bear tourism industry helped.‎ Today, some 10,000 tourists come to the town to see polar bears for six weeks in autumn every year. But the reasons why they come are different from before. Everyone was happier and they had such a good time seeing polar bears. Now things have changed because the word is out that this Western Hudson Bay population of bears, Churchill Bears, are going to be the first population of polar bears to die out. So when the tourists come up, they all have a little bit of a lump in their throats （如鲠在喉）because they're looking at a beautiful bear, but they're also looking at a dying-out bear, which makes the whole attitude toward the bears different. Unfortunately，that's becoming the major part of the whole attraction of the tours as well. Come and see the bears before it's too late.‎ ‎28. What can we learn about Churchill polar bears from the text?‎ A. They have eaten up the seals in the Hudson Bay.‎ B. They come to Churchill at the same time every year.‎ C. They move to Churchill to escape the northern winds.‎ D. They are so dangerous that most natives left their home.‎ ‎29. What did Munk report in his journal?‎ A. They fed many polar bears. B. Polar bears were dangerous.‎ C. They hunted a bear for food. D. They found some seals in the bay.‎ ‎30. How do polar bears benefit Churchill?‎ A. They make many people settle down.‎ B. They attract many hunters to come here.‎ C. They bring much tourist income.‎ D. They supply food to locals.‎ ‎31. What is the main reason why tourists go to Churchill now?‎ A. To say good-bye to Churchill Bears. B. To help polar bears become happier.‎ C. To take photos with Churchill Bears. D. To stop polar bears going to the town.‎ D Earlier research had suggested we're best at learning grammar in early childhood. Then we hit a dead end around age 5. It's supposed to be much harder for older kids. The time when people can learn the rules and structure of a language well appears to last until around age 17 or 18. “But that's not so," says psychologist （心理学家）Joshua Hartshorne.‎ Hartshorne asked friends to take an online English grammar test. After completing the test, volunteers answered questions about where they had lived, the languages they had spoken from birth and the age at which they first started learning English. Hartshorne also asked how long they had lived in an English-speaking country. As he had hoped, people shared the test widely online. This let Hartshorne's group study the answers from 669,498 native and non-native speakers of English. The researchers used statistics to find out when people with different English-speaking experiences reached their top grammar ability.‎ If people moved to a new country and began speaking English by age 10 to 12, they finally spoke it as well as folks who had learned both English and another language from birth. But both groups scored a little worse than people who spoke English only, the researchers found. The test results showed that around age 17, people's ability to learn grammar took a sharp drop. And those who started learning English after age 10 or 12 never reached the same level of English skillfulness as people who started younger. Why? The researchers think it's because they had fewer years to practice before their skills dropped off at 17. But here's the surprise： Language learning did not end at 17. People's English skills kept improving a little until around age 30 , the new study found. And this was true among both native speakers and those who learned English as a second language. Still, most language learning happened by age 20, the new study decided.‎ ‎32. What age period is best for grammar learning according to earlier research?‎ A. From 17 to 20. B. From 5 to 12. C. Before age 5. D. From 20 to 30.‎ ‎33. How did Hartshorne get his study statistics?‎ A. By experimenting in the lab. B. By making an online survey.‎ C. By studying historical records. D. By collecting earlier study results.‎ ‎34. Which of the following agrees with Hartshorne's study results?‎ A. Language learning needs much practice.‎ B. Language learning ends at the age of 17.‎ C. The more languages you learn, the better.‎ D. It is best to learn language after 20 years old.‎ ‎35. What is the best title for the text?‎ A. How native speakers learn English?‎ B. What's the best age to learn a language?‎ C. What's the best way to learn a foreign language?‎ D. Why non-native speakers can never master a second language? ‎ 第二节（共5小题;每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分）‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。‎ How to stay focused in class Being relaxed during class is a bad habit， and it is also bad to your grade． Focusing in class not only proves to teachers that you are a capable student but also shows that you have the ability to control yourself，which will be very important．‎ ‎___36___ No matter how much you want to sit with your friends during the class， try your best to avoid them．Talking with friends around you is not going to give you the focus in class．This will get you into trouble．‎ Look at teacher and make eye contact．Your teacher is not just standing up there talking．___37___ Show the teacher that he or she has your full attention by looking them in the eye．This person should have your full attention at all times during class．‎ Take notes．By taking notes，you'll be able to "get into" the lesson．Write down key points as your teacher speaks．And listen to the key phrases such as "This is important" "This is the main idea" "This will be the test" etc．___38___ ‎ Get involved in class discussions．This is a wonderful way to become a more focused，successful student．When a teacher asks a question，offer to answer it．___39___This shows the teacher that you are listening carefully during the class．‎ Ask a question．___40___This really shows your teacher that you want to be better，and can recognize the things you are having difficulty with．Chances are that someone else in the class has the same question （and was too afraid to ask!）．They'll be relieved，and so will you．‎ A.

I ran to my class, causing my slight limp(跛行) to become even more apparent. Already, I could see that things would be different here. At my old school, I had a group of friends to protect me. However, in this new school, I was on my own. I took my place in the first row of desks and I was grateful for alphabetic(字母的） seating. My ‎ last name came at the beginning of the alphabet and Betsy’s last name came at the end. As the weeks went on, though, I made friends with two girls named Fran and Lisa who sat near me in class. Whenever Betsy made one of her comments, they would wave it off and tell me to ignore her.      Still, I hated that I didn’t walk like everyone else. I didn’t like not being able to run as fast or as straight as the other kids and I didn’t like getting picked last for teams in gym class. Mostly, though, I really hated it when people like Betsy made negative comments about how I walked.      One day, our teacher asked us to change seats. “Class,” our teacher addressed us one morning, “you’ve been in the same seats for a full semester and you’ve become friendly with the students around you. Now it’s time to change seats and make some new friends.” The class let out a collective moan(抱怨). As she assigned the new seating, Fran, Lisa, and I looked at each other and waited for our names to be called. We didn’t want to be separated. And we especially didn’t want to sit anywhere near Betsy. Finally, Betsy sat directly behind me.      I knew this wasn’t going to be good and I soon discovered I was right. Betsy often leaned into my back. She kicked my seat. When that didn’t work, she poked(戳)me. This went on daily until one morning I simply refused to go to school. I told Mom what had happened at school. ‎ Paragraph 1:     My mother sat me down and began to talk. ________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2:      Then one day I did what my mother taught me and amazing things happened. _______________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎【参考答案】‎ ‎1-5 CCABA 6-10 BBCCA 11-15 BCAAB 16-20 BCCBA 21---23BDD 24---27CADA 28---31BCCA 32---35 CBAB 七选五：36---40 A E B C G 完形填空：41--45.DBACC   46---50. ABDAA  51---55. ACDBD  ‎ ‎56.were 57.which 58.benches 59.an 60.homeless　61.to help 62.to　63.easily 64.was givenhas been given　 65．saying 写作 Dear Li Wei,‎ I have received your letter and I can understand you. You must feel bad when being laughed at your over-weight. Here is my advice for you.‎ Firstly, there is no need to care about what others think of you. The most important thing is to be confident, as it will help you have courage to face and overcome your trouble. Secondly, try to eat healthily. Keep away from high-fat food and eat more fruit and vegetables instead. A balanced diet is very important for losing weight. Thirdly, I strongly advise you to exercise more often. You’d better get up early in the morning and do some sports regularly. The more you exercise, the healthier you’ll be.‎ I hope my advice will be helpful to you.‎ Yours,‎ Rina 读后续写 One sample version:‎ My mother sat me down and began to talk. “Look,” she held my hand, “there will always be mean people like Betsy in this world. That is hard to change. But you can change the way you handle them. Have you ever heard of the saying ‘Treat them with kindness’?” I shook my head. “It’s simple. Just show your kindness to the girl now and then. If she drops her pen, pick it up and hand it to her. Things like that. Just be nice to her.”     Then one day I did what my mother taught me and amazing things happened. Our teacher announced seriously that there would be an exam the next morning. As Betsy was not good at ‎ study, I offered to help her review. Betsy was surprised but grateful. She said shyly, “You’re so nice. I truly regret making those rude comments on you. Can we be friends? ” I was glad that I had followed my mom’s advice. It was just what I needed. And probably just what Betsy needed, too.‎
