We often express our love to our mothers by giving flowers or other presents. April Fool’s Day is a funny festival, because you can play some small tricks on your friends and they can’t be angry with you. Anyway, June 1st is a dream day for all the kids around the world because it’s Children’s Day. On that day, they can get their favorite toys and have fun with their friends.

24、It’s reported that India is facing one of the worst water shortage in its history. 26-year-old Ramveer Tanwar knew a thing or two about it years ago. The young man comes from a small village in Greater Noida in India. A trip back to his hometown has totally changed his life.

During the trip, Ramveer noticed that many lakes where he used to swim and play with his friends dried up because of pollution. What’s worse, many water bodies were disappearing fast. Instead of waiting for the government to take action, the young man decided to take matters into his own hands as soon as possible.

In the beginning, Ramveer went from door to door or held meetings to educate local villagers on the importance of water protection. He believed by teaching people the situation could get better. But later he found that was not enough. So besides talking to villagers, he teamed up with them and began to bring lifeless lakes back to life in the area. “We tried making a lake live again by removing all its waste. Many of the villagers came to help. Some of them worked with us while others offered us tools (工具) and equipment,” Ramveer said. They even succeeded in getting support from the forest department, which provided them with plants to be planted around the lakes.

Since 2014, with the help of the volunteers, Ramveer has brought about twelve dead lakes back to life. Of course, he doesn’t plan to stop there. Today he is using his power and influence to call on more people to join him.

【1】What caused the lakes in India to dry up?

A．The reduction of forest.

B．The loss of farmland.

C．The activities of animals.

D．The problem of pollution.

【2】Except which of the following did Ramveer do to revive the dead lakes?

A．Make special tools.

B．Clean the waste.

C．Plant trees.

D．Educate the villagers.

【3】What can we infer (推断) from the last sentence in Paragraph 2?

A．The local villagers would give a hand to Ramveer.

B．Indian government has never cared for pollution.

C．The problem of the dead lakes was so serious.

D．The dead lakes could revive easily.

【4】What will Ramveer do next according to the last paragraph?

A．Join the forest department.

B．Stop his work in his hometown.

C．Go on with his water protection.

D．Become the leader of the volunteers.

25、Have you ever been ill? When you are ill，you must be unhappy because your body becomes hot，and there are pains all over your body. You don't want to work，you stay in bed，feeling very sad.

What makes us ill? It is germs(细菌). Germs are everywhere. They are very small and you can't find them with your eyes，but you can see them with a microscope. They are very small and there could be hundreds of them on a very small thing.

26、“Five, four, three, two, one, blast off.” At 0:23 on October 16, 2021, China launched the manned spaceship Shenzhou-13, sending three astronauts to its Tiangong space station. About 6.5 hours after the launch, the spaceship successfully docked (对接) with the Tianhe core module of the station.

The three-person team is the second crew (工作组) to have entered Tiangong. The team is led by China’s first spacewalker Zhai Zhigang. The other two astronauts are Wang Yaping and Ye Guangfu. They will live and work together at the station for six months. This will be China’s longest-ever manned mission (任务).

During their six-month stay, the crew will carry out a number of tasks. They will do two to three spacewalks to fix equipment to prepare for future work. And lectures will be held and presented by Chinese astronauts. This will bring space closer to the general public. For example, on December 9th, 2021, they gave a science lecture from China’s space station to students on the Earth. They showed the kids their space life and did some fun science experiments. Wang made a water ball to show that water in space is different from that on the Earth. It will not flow downward if you try to pour it into a cup.

Shenzhou-13 was China’s last main space mission in 2021. Another six missions are planned for this year to finish the construction (建设) of the space station. Once it’s completed, Tiangong will be about one-fifth the size of the International Space Station (ISS). The ISS will reach the end of its life in 2024. Tiangong is likely to be the only operational near-Earth orbit (近地轨道) space station by then. China looks forward to hosting astronauts from other countries.

Denis Simon, at Duke Law in the US, told Xinhua that China’s success in space continues to be impressive (令人赞叹的). “It is now well on its way to being a leader in space exploration.” he said.

【1】Shenzhou-13 will probably return to the earth in ________.

A．March, 2022

B．April, 2022

C．March, 2024

D．April, 2024

【2】The underlined word “presented” in Paragraph 3 means ________.

A．watched

B．driven

C．gifted

D．given

【3】What do we know about water in space?

A．It does not flow downward.

B．Its color is different from water on the Earth.

C．It will break a cup if people try to pour it.

D．It flows quicker than it does on the Earth.

【4】What can we know about Tiangong space station?

A．The three-person team has entered Tiangong twice.

B．The construction of Tiangong will be finished in 6 months.

C．The size of Tiangong will be 50% of ISS.

D．Tiangong will welcome foreign astronauts in the future.

【5】The passage is written mainly to ________.

A．show China’s achievements in space field

B．introduce the missions of Shenzhou-13

C．explain the success of launching Shenzhou-13

D．describe the importance of Tiangong space station

The Lake

The day when Robert was born was the happiest day of my life. Unfortunately my wife decided she no longer wanted to be married to me. My little boy and I had to part, only getting to see each other every     weekend.

One day, I decided to go fishing with my son, who was about 5 years old, at a nearby lake. We arrived at the lake early. Getting out of the car, we brought out all of the fishing equi pment and our life jackets and the cooler that had our tasty lunch in it. I could just       the day in my mind in hopes that it would never end. We both went out onto the dock（船坞）and I thought, “Do I put his life jacket on first or load the boat first?” I saw him skipping rocks on the water, so I decided to load the boat first.

I was just finishing up when I heard the splash. I turned and looked quickly expecting to see Robert    standing there, but I did not see him anywhere. I jumped into the water to save my son immediately. I searched and searched but found him nowhere. I came up for a breath hoping to see him above water, now wondering how I could find him in the murky（浑浊的）water. I finally decided to go all the way to the bottom and      around, not coming up until I found him.

Finally, there on the bottom he was, his arms wrapped around the wooden pole that holds up the dock. I brought him to the     and put him on the bank. While both of us were coughing and spitting out water, I just hugged him and was   that I had found him in time.

When things finally calmed down, I asked one simple question, “Robert, why were you    onto that pole on the bottom of the lake?” He looked at me with the most innocent and loving eyes and simply replied, “I was waiting for you, Daddy. I knew you would come to     me.”

I thought that I could not be any prouder or any madder at the same time and I just told him, “I sure do love you, sweetheart.” He replied, “I love you too, Dad.”

There is no amount of money or cars or jobs or any material thing that could replace being loved and   someone so much. I am lucky to have the ability to love on such a high level, and the ability to forgive on the same level.
