21、Dear Tony,

I’ve been busy last few weeks, even though all the tests are over and we hardly have any homework. I’m busy preparing for an English spelling competition and volunteering in a museum. But I still keep reading.

I have just finished a funny book series called I Funny, I Even Funnier and I Totally Funniest. They talk about a kid, Jamie Grimm, who got in a car accident and had to move in a wheel. Because his parents died in the accident, Jamie had to live with his aunt and uncle. His aunt didn’t treat him well, and his cousin always made fun of him. Luckily, his uncle Frankie often helped him and was nice to him. One day, Jamie was telling jokes in his uncle’s restaurant. Then, his uncle told him to take part in the joke contest. The three books show his journey in the joke contest from city, state and country.

There are some really funny jokes in the books. I often laughed out loudly and told my mom one of the jokes. It’s too late today. I will share some with you next time.

22、   All the planets in the solar system go around the sun. There are eight planets in the solar system. Years ago, there were nine planets. Ever since Pluto (冥王星) was demoted (使降级), we’ve had just eight planets.

Some scientists have studied the farthest reaches（研究）of our solar system. They believe there might be another planet out there. They call it Planet Nine. What would Planet Nine be like? Scientists believe it could be about three times larger and ten times heavier than the earth.

If Planet Nine is out there, why haven’t we found it yet? Scientists are still reaching for it because it’s so far away. They believe it could take Planet Nine as long as 20,000 years to go around the Sun. Scientists also think Planet Nine could be as much as 10,000 times darker than Pluto.

It is very difficult to search for such a dark planet in the whole solar system. Could our solar system have a ninth planet? We hope to know the answer in the near future.

【1】From the first paragraph, we can know Pluto          .

A．goes around the Earth

B．was a planet years ago

C．was not demoted

【2】Scientists think Planet Nine may be          .

A．three times larger than the sun

B．out of the solar system

C．ten times heavier than the earth

【3】We haven’t found Planet Nine yet because          .

A．it’s far and dark

B．it doesn’t go around the sun

C．it’s large and heavy

【4】From the passage, we know that        .

A．scientists are still reaching for Planet Nine

B．it is easy to search for such a dark planet

C．our solar system can’t have a ninth planet

【5】Which of the following could be the best title for the passage?

A．Solar System

B．Dark Pluto

C．Planet Nine

23、Can you understand the following words? “Long time no see.” “Good good study, day day up.”

“I like your smile, but unlike you put your shoes on my face.”

Yes, we call these examples Chinglish, like “people mountain, people sea”.

Chinglish usually means English vocabulary with Chinese grammar on street signs or products. However, many English speaking tourists love them. Tom has been living in Beijing for years. “I think many Chinese people dislike Chinglish. But I love it. It’s quite interesting. I think if the translations of English in China are all perfect, something will be lost from Chinese culture.” However, Chinglish will probably become a part of history in future. Beijing has made a plan to correct Chinglish within five years. “It is so funny to see Chinglish on the signs. And they are a kind of trouble for communication between the Chinese and foreigners,” a Beijinger said.

However, some people in China like Chinglish. They think that English has “borrowed” a lot from other languages such as German, French and Spanish in the past, and now as Chinese’s turn.

【1】According to the passage, Chinglish is ________.

A．the English words easy to pronounce

B．the Chinese words difficult to translate

C．the English words with Chinese grammar

D．the Chinese words that foreigners love

【2】“People mountain, people sea” means ________.

A．there are many people

B．humans are powerful

C．all the people are running

D．humans respect nature

【3】According to the passage, all the following are wrong EXCEPT ________.

A．All foreign tourists hate Chinglish.

B．English can also borrow a lot from Chinese.

C．Chinglish is a part of history and shows Chinese culture.

D．Chinglish can help the communication between the Chinese and foreigners.

【4】We can learn from the last second paragraph that Beijing will ________.

A．put English words into Chinese

B．change English and Chinese

C．help foreigners to learn Chinglish

D．correct Chinglish in future

【5】Which one is not Chinglish?

A．Long time no see.

B．Good good study, day day up.

C．I very love you.

D．A miss is as good as a mile.

24、A fish that lives in America can live out. of water for months at a time, similar to how animals got used to land millions of years ago, a new study shows.

The Mangrove Rivulus, a kind of little fish, lives in small pools of water. When their living place dries up, they live. on the land, said Scott Taylor, a researcher in Florida.  

The fish can grow as large as three inches. They group together and breathe air through their skin before they can find water again.

The new scientific discovery came during a trip.

"We were travelling for fun. and one day I kicked over a log (圆木) and the fish came out," Taylor told reporters by telephone. He said he would make his study on the fish known to the public in an American magazine early next year.

In lab tests, Taylor said he found the fish can live up to 66 days out of water without eating.

Some other fish can live out of water for a short period of time. The walking catfish found in Southeast Asia can stay on land for hours at a time, while lungfish(肺鱼) found in Australia, Africa and South America can live out of water, but only in a not active(活波的)way. But no other known fish can be out of water as long as the Mangrove Rivulus and keep active, according to Patricia Wright, a biologist at a Canadian University.

More studies of the fish may tell how animals changed over time.

"These animals live in conditions similar to those millions of years ago, when animals began to move from water onto land," Wright said.

A. lives on land in Africa

C. keep alive out of water D. keep alive and walk on land

【4】Which one of the sentences below is not true?

A. The Mangrove Rivulus fish can live out of water as long as other animals if it has something to eat.

B. Millions of years ago, animals began to live onto land from water.

C. Lungfish found in Australia, Africa and South America can live out of water in a not active way.

D. The walking catfish found in Southeast Asia can stay on land for hours at a time.

【5】What can we say about the discovery of Mangrove Rivulus?
