22、Every living thing needs to reproduce. Reproducing means creating more members of your group. In order for plants to reproduce, they have to spread their seeds (种子) to other areas. Plants have developed all kinds of ways to do this.

The simplest way is gravity. Many seeds are inside of fruit. When a piece of fruit gets too heavy, it falls from a tree to the ground. Sometimes animals will pick up the fruit and drop it in another area. That helps move the seed even farther away. Apples spread this way.

Other plants use wind to spread their seeds. Dandelions (蒲公英) are a good example of this.

Dandelion seeds are so light that when wind blows, it carries dandelion seeds to new places.

Maple (枫树) seeds also use wind. Their seeds are connected with long, thin leaves that look like wings. When the seed falls from the tree, its “wings” help it fly farther from the tree.

Some animals help plants spread their seeds. The animals eat the seeds. While the seed is in the animal’s body, it stays whole. When the seed leaves the animal, it’s in a new place.

Ants also help spread seeds. Some seeds have a special smell that attracts ants. The ants bring   the seeds back to their home, which of course is underground. They only eat part of the seed. They leave the rest of the seed underground. After that, the seed can start growing.

【1】What does the underlined word “gravity” mean in the second paragraph?

A．The action that makes animals drop seeds.

B．The help that moves seeds even farther away.

C．The need that comes from animals and plants.

D．The force that causes fruit to fall to the ground.

【2】What do ants do to help spread seeds?

a. They only eat part of the seed.                    b. They help seeds fall from the tree.

c. They carry seeds to the underground home.   d. They pick up the fruit and move it far away.   

e. They leave the rest of the seed underground.

A．b, d, e

B．a, b, d

C．a, c, e

D．b, c, d

23、For many Americans, baseball is not just a kind of sport. It makes them think of hot dogs, cold beers(啤酒) and sunny afternoons. Baseball is the game between fathers and sons. They practice catching balls with each other on the grass and in parks. A father’s favorite team becomes his son’s. Grandfathers talk to their grandsons about games played long ago.

Many American kids collect(收集) baseball cards. There are pictures of their favorite players on the cards. At school kids talk about the players on the cards. If they like each other’s baseball cards they often trade them just like they trade their lunches.

Americans call baseball players “the boys of summer”, because they like playing the sport mostly in warm months. You don’t need to be of a certain(某种) size or shape to play baseball. You don’t have to be as tall as a basketball player or as strong as a football player. When you want to have fun, you can just take part in it.

24、   You have probably dreamed about how you would change the world, only to find that it seems i【1】. However, you may have the power to make the world better with baby steps. That's the idea b【2】 the BA Challenge (BA挑战).

The BA Challenge is organized by Alibaba and Sina Weibo. It asks people to do something positive(正面的) and then records the c【3】 before and after. It has attracted millions of viewers and participants(参与者), including some superstars. For example, Chinese actor Huang Xiaoming sent mooncakes to old people who live alone. The young actor Xu Weizhou drew some trees in the desert and tried to show that  p【4】 the environment can give us hope for a better world. These things may be very small in our daily life, but it really brings a lot to the society.

“The Challenge makes everyone b【5】 in the miracle(奇迹) of good actions again.” wrote a man on Sina Weibo. As the old Chinese saying goes, "Don't f【6】 to do something good even if it's small; do not engage in evil even if it's small (勿以善小而不为，勿以恶小而为之).” Why don't we all set smaller goals"?

Then we may change the world s【7】 but surely, as a river changes a mountain.
