26、Dear Dad,

Today I was at the shopping center and I spent a lot of time reading the Father's Day cards. But as I chose and read, and chose and read again, it seemed that not a single card said what I really wanted to say. So I decided to write a letter to you.

You'll soon be 84 years old, Dad. You and I will have had 56 Father's Days together. I didn't think that you were too old. But the sad thing happened last week.I watched as you turned at the corner in your car. I didn't realize at once that it was you because the man who was driving looked so elderly.

Fifty years ago this spring, we planted carrots together in a garden in Charles City, Iowa. This week, we'll plant carrots together again, perhaps for the last time but I hope not. I don't understand why planting carrots with you is so important to me. Well, I don't quite know how to tell you this, Dad …I don't like carrots...but I like planting them with you.

I guess what I'm trying to say, Dad, is what every son and daughter wants to say to their Dad today. Praising a father on Father's Day is about more than a Dad who brings home money or shares a dinner. It's more about a Dad deeply loving children who knows everything and won't listen to anyone. It's about sharing. It's about loving someone more than words can say, and I wish that it would never end.

Love,

Jenny

【1】Jenny bought a Father's Day card in the shop.

【2】Jenny is 28 years younger than her father.

【3】Jenny didn't realize her father was too old until last year.

【4】In fact, Jenny prefers staying with her father to planting carrots.

【5】From this letter, we can learn that Jenny loves her father deeply.

27、People depend on plants. We use plants for food, cloth, shelter (住处), and even the air we breathe. Plants keep our air and water clean. Green plants give us oxygen (氧气). Oxygen is part of the air we breathe.

Plants are also part of the water cycle (循环). Most of the water that a plant takes in goes back into the air.

Plants give us lots of the food on the earth. Fruits, vegetables, and grains (谷物) come from plants. Without plants, we would not have bread, rice, carrots, apples, oranges, or bananas! Many people are growing plants to eat in their own gardens at home. Having your own garden helps the earth as well.

When you grow your own fruits and vegetables, you help cut down on pollution because big trucks don’t need to take your food to shops. You also help cut down on the amount of rubbish because you don’t need to use bags for packing your food. You can just pick it out of the ground or off a plant and put it into a basket!

Trees are an important plant resource (资源). Trees provide wood to build homes and furniture. Trees are used to make lots of things around your home and at your school. And trees provide fruits that are good for you. Without trees, the earth would be a very different place.

【1】________ is part of the air we breathe.

A．Sunlight

B．Water

C．Food

D．Oxygen

【2】What happens to most of the water that a plant takes in?

A．It goes back into the air.

B．It stays in the plant.

C．It goes into the ground.

D．It stays in the river.

【3】What does the phrase “cut down on” mean in Paragraph 5?

A．引起

B．接受

C．减少

D．除了

【4】What is the best title of the passage?

A．A Different Place

B．The Uses of Plants

C．Food on the Earth

D．Gardens at Home

【5】You would find the passage in _________.

A．an interesting novel

B．a book about animals

28、阅读短文，在空白处填入一个适当的单词或用括号内所给词的正确形式填空，使短文通顺、连贯。

In ancient China, people passed down plenty of classic stories from generation (一代人) to generation. Here are the stories of 【1】 (second) famous characters.

One person is Che Yin. He was from a poor family, 【2】 he loved studying. He had to work in the daytime, so he could only study in the evening. However, there was a problem. He couldn’t afford a lamp. He didn’t worry about that 【3】 summer. In the evening, he caught some 【4】 (firefly), put 【5】 (they) in a bag and used it as a lamp. This lamp was not very bright, but Che Yin could do some reading by lamplight in the evening.

The other person is Sun Kang. He was smart, but he was so poor that he couldn’t go to school. So he studied at home. He 【6】 (have) to read just at night. Like Che Yin, he couldn’t buy a lamp. On 【7】 (snow) nights, he went out and read in the snow. Why? Because there was the light of snow outside.

Later, people use “Nang Ying Ying Xue” to say that a strong spirit is very important no matter how hard the life is. When we are having 【8】 hard time in life, don’t lose heart. Never let life knock us down. Even in the 【9】 (hard) situation, there is hope that encourages us 【10】 (move) forward.
