    Just two more days till Christmas! Marcus sat by his window, staring at the 1  lights on other buildings. His little brother, Peter, sat beside him.

    "When are we getting our Christmas tree, Marcus?" Peter asked.

    On hearing this, Marcus walked slowly to his room and 2  his piggy bank. Only seven dollars! Far from enough! Mama was too 3  to make a living. He decided to earn more on his own. 

    He delivered the milk on his way to school and after school, he pushed carts to help shoppers. In the evening, he 4 the baby for neighbors. Two days later, six more dollars jingled (发出叮当声) in his pocket. "My lucky day," he thought. Thirteen dollars should buy a small tree

    He 5 all the way to the street with the excited Peter. But even the smallest trees were $ 15 or more. Suddenly, he saw a small tree planted in a can. "Is that one for 6 , sir?"

    "Yes, that's my last 7 tree," the seller said. "It's small now, but it will grow tall."

    "How much does it cost?" asked Marcus.

    "It's Christmas Eve. For you, $ 8." answered the man.

    "It's so small," Peter complained.

    "Being small isn't a bad thing. You're small, but you are 8 . I can find you wherever you are." Marcus told his brother as he 9 the tree. "It will grow bigger, just like you." Peter's eyes opened wide. "There are 5 dollars left. Let's go to the10 ," Marcus said.

    They shopped quickly: a scarf for Mama; a coloring book for Peter; a wallet for Marcus. They hurried home. Marcus set their tree on the table and Peter couldn't wait to place straw birds on the branches.

    When they were 11  decorating the tree, Mama came in. What came to her sight really astonished her. Straw birds were hanging on a small lovely Christmas tree; 12  were on the sofa. 

    "What 13 The Santa Claus came?" asked the Mama

    "Marcus is the Santa!" Peter replied, running to mom. "He worked after school and earned some money. He bought the Christmas tree and presents."

    "But I can't afford a big tree, mom," Marcus 14 his head and said.

    "My dear, it is the biggest and most beautiful tree in my heart!" said mom. 15 the two boys tightly, Mama couldn't contain her joyful tears.

    Waterproof Clothes and Windows

    Scientists are developing a new coating (涂层). It contains (包含) the same chemical people use in house paint, which can help water jump off the surface. Now, people have sprayed (喷) the coating onto a jacket and used muddy water for testing. It really works! Besides, after making the coating stronger, people can even use it on windows. 

    Walt Disney has formed a team to explore how the company could use AI though there are ongoing worries about AI in Hollywood. The company plans to use AI across different areas, from film production to theme parks, to get more customer support and interactions (互动). But many people in the film industry are afraid AI will take their jobs away. 

    Oil-free Lego Bricks

    Danish toymaker Lego found out that a new material which they tried actually produced more emissions (排放), so they stopped trying to make its bricks without using oil-based plastics. Lego's CEO said they tested many materials but couldn't find a material that is environmentally friendly and still looks and sounds like the old plastic bricks, but they are still working on this and want to make their toys using eco-friendly materials by

    It was dark and freezing cold outside. The wind kept blowing. At that time, the bell rang loudly, and everybody walked orderly to the school gate, including David. His mother would come and pick him up from school but today she was absent. David wondered what had happened, but he was not worried at all. It usually took only ten minutes for his mother to get to school by riding an electric bike. However, half an hour passed, and there was no sign that his mother would come.  ★  

    On his way home, David could hardly see any passers-by. The trees shook with the wind and the leaves fell from them without making any noise. David was lost in thinking what was wrong with his mother. Some terrible thoughts jumped out of his mind. Little David burst into tears and quickened his step. 

    Finally, David stood in front of his beautiful house. He opened the door hurriedly. He turned on the lights unhesitatingly. Everything was in order. David pushed all the doors and was eager to look for his mother. Still, he couldn't find her anywhere. It was hard for him to control his nervousness. He ran to the telephone and began to make a phone call to his mother.

    Suddenly, there was a knock on the door and came a familiar voice. It was his mother. He hurried to the door and opened it excitedly. His mother wore a big smile, saying, "I just want you to be independent. And I followed you along the way. You made it. I am proud of you. "David held his mother tightly, promising that he would never worry her and he would become brave.

    (1)、Which of the following can be put in  ★ 
    A、David made a call to his mother B、Tears rolled down from his eyes C、David decided to walk home D、David turned around and walked towards the school
    (2)、From paragraph 2, why did David burst into tears? 
    A、He was worried about his mother. B、He was worried about his safety. C、There were no passers-by on his way home. D、He was afraid his mother couldn't pick him up.
    (3)、The underlined word "unhesitatingly" in paragraph 3 means ____.
    A、unwillingly B、at once C、suddenly D、on time
    (4)、It is inferred that ____.
    A、David's mother was very busy B、David often walked home C、David was angry with his mother D、David's mother watched him closely
    (5)、What would be the best title for the passage?

    With the summer vacation coming, study tours of primary and middle school students have become popular. Children come in groups to different places of interest, museums and universities to learn while enjoying them. 

    The study tour is the most traditional way of learning and education in different countries in the world. Since old times, the Chinese think highly of the role of study tour in developing personality and knowledge. Confucius led disciples (门徒) to travel around the world, broadening their horizons (视野) and shaping their characters. Therefore, there is a tradition to have study tour in China. 

    With the development of economy (经济) and society, children today have become dependent on phones, tablets and computers for both learning and fun. This is not only harmful to their eyes but also reduces their chances to connect with nature and social life. Therefore, it is necessary for children to get more experiences and memories by learning while traveling. It is undoubtedly good for children. 

    Study tours can improve children's understanding of the knowledge in books. China has a saying, "It is better to travel ten thousand miles than to read ten thousand books. "By experiencing firsthand knowledge during their travels, they can turn the textbooks into real experiences, thus getting a deeper understanding of the knowledge.

    Study tours offer children a valuable chance to become more independent. In the school environment, children often put their heart into studies, leaving little room for activities such as practical labor or sports, which are necessary for a well-rounded person. By independent living and problem-solving with other children of the same ages, students can learn to deal with real-life situations. 

    However, the current market appears to be chaotic (混乱的). Some businesses might charge high fees (费用) without offering meaningful education. What's more, some teachers might not have the required qualifications (资格), which raises worries about the safety of students.

    It depends on each family to decide whether to join in study tours or not. To make the right decision, time and money should be considered, along with children' needs and interests. Of course, the decision does not necessarily dictate (决定) a child's future. The key to a child's development lies in day-to-day education and the environment provided by the family.

    (1)、Confucius is mentioned to ____.
    A、introduce the topic B、suggest he is great C、explain what the study tour is D、show the importance of study tour
    (2)、Study tours can make students ____.
    A、put their heart to studies B、become dependent on phones C、reduce the chances to connect with real life D、independent and get a deep understanding of knowledge
    (3)、The sixth paragraph mainly tells us ____.
    A、the costs of study tours B、the problems from study tours C、the market for study tours D、the businesses for study tours
    (4)、Which isn't talked about in the last paragraph?
    A、Study tours are necessary for us. B、The key to a child's development C、How to make a right decision about study tours. D、Different families will make different decisions.
    (5)、The writer's writing purpose is to ____.
    A、say "yes" to study tours B、make study tours more popular C、draw attention to study tours D、look for ways to develop children
