Long before Wikipedia and Encyclopaedia Britannica, there was Historia Naturalis. Its writer was Pliny the Elder. Pliny worked hard and read a lot. His helper read to him while he was having meals and while he was bathing. His helper even carried him around Rome in a chair while he was reading. He thought walking was a waste of time.

It was thought to be the oldest encyclopaedia in history. Historia Naturalis covered almost everything, from mice to Mars. "No Roman writer has completed such a project," Pliny said proudly. Unluckily, two years after the encyclopaedia appeared, Pliny died.

The world always changes, and accidents can hardly be stopped. Editors of encyclopaedias like Pliny collect and write down the knowledge of our world. I think an encyclopaedia is not only a record of what its editors know, but also a record of what they don't know.

Pliny was wrong when he said there were seven planets, including the Sun and the Moon. After all, Historia Naturalis was a book thousands of years ago. Those were all Pliny knew at that time.

Similarly, both Wikipedia and Encyclopaedia Britannica have some wrong information.

Roger Lewinter, an American researcher, thinks encyclopaedias can't record all human knowledge, but just some of it. They can never be completed. They are always waiting for someone—perhaps you—to improve them.

A. Historia Naturalis came out in 77 AD.

B. Pliny took notes carefully all the time.

C. Luckily, these things can be written down.

D. Even the best encyclopaedias only show what their editors know.

E. He was also wrong when he said Africans were black because of the Sun.

What happened to personal information online?

Many free apps get paid by businesses who want to know about the users of the apps. What a business wants is the exact information about customers. Data brokers collect your data—everything from your name, location and education level to the topics you search for, the websites you visit and the people you follow. And then, sell them to businesses.

________?

The data is valuable. Businesses can use the information from data brokers to target their ads. It means they will show their ads to the people who are most likely to be interested in their products or services.

What can we do about it?

Many countries have made laws to protect personal information. For example, a law in the United States says businesses must get parents' permission (许可) to collect personal data from kids under 13. China's law on personal information protection came into effect (生效) on November 1st, 2021. At the same time, we should try to protect our data. If an app asks for something like your location, consider saying "No" first. In short, information about you is very valuable. Try to protect it.

I saw the quote every day while walking home from school. One day I decided to write one of my favourite quotes on the fence for someone else to see. When I came back to the fence, I saw another quote under mine. I added another, and we kept at this pattern for quite a while.

A few days later, I was writing another quote on the fence. And the old man, one of my neighbours, who owned the fence, saw me. He came out and I was afraid he would be angry with me for writing on his fence. He was not known to be a very friendly person. He looked at me angrily and then read the quotes on the fence. Without saying a word, he went back inside. I was terrified for a while, but when I went back to the fence. I noticed two words had been added: "Thank you".

Later, I saw the old man in his front yard. He called me over and told me that he was glad to see that young people still had values. We are now good friends. I still don't know who wrote that very first quote, but I'd like to say thank you to that unknown hero.

Dear Sue,

I have a problem and I need your help. My parents are really strict with me.

they care about me, sometimes I feel quite nervous. Last Sunday, my friends invited me to play soccer, but my parents (refuse). They wanted me to go to animal hospital to volunteer. They said it was important to learn to care for others. In the end, I went. I spent many hours (look) after the animals there. Yesterday, I wanted to go to the movies with my friends after school. But my mom said I must help housework first. She was cleaning the living room and she asked    (I) to sweep the floor. I did it (angry). I told her I was too tired. She got mad at me. Now, we aren't talking to each other. I know she is busy and tired and I know it's not only the (parent) job to do the housework at home. But I also need some free time (relax).

(play) with friends is a good way to relax. And volunteering at the animal hospital is also something I enjoy doing. But I don't like it when they always decide everything for me. Do you think I'm right?

What should I do?

I'm looking forward to your reply.

Best regards.

A few years later, I saw the only twig started to die. The lower branches (树枝) became poor. Only the top was still green. I did my best to save it, but it didn't work.   

Later one morning, I went out and looked at it again. I wondered if it would be better to just cut it down. However, I saw something moving on the branches. It was a robin (知更鸟) building its home there! I was surprised when I looked at it. I thought maybe this tree was still useful. It might not be healthy or beautiful, but it still gave a bird a home. It made me know that nothing is meaningless. Until we die, we still have things to do, love to give, and joy to share.

Many birds fly from one place to another. Most of the time, they live in the wild, such as forests and wetlands. They might see small trees and flowers inside a window and want to rest on these plants. The birds do not know there is glass between them and the plants.

Some birds fly at night. They use the moon and stars to help guide them in the right direction. Tall buildings with lights on at night can confuse (迷惑) the birds. The birds see the light, but they cannot tell that the light is coming from inside a building. They fly toward the light and crash into a building. On many mornings, there might be several dead birds lying on the ground.

Many office buildings now turn off their lights at night. This helps reduce the number of birds that fly into buildings and it also helps save energy.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

A. The answer is glass.

B. People are trying to solve the problem.

C. These birds have no idea what glass is.

D. As a result, they fly right into the glass.

E. This is a big problem, especially on foggy and rainy nights.

根据语篇内容，判断下列句子正（T）、误（F）。

Parents bring warmth (温暖) to children's lives. They usually shower kids with love and support. As a child grows older, he finds warmth in the parent-child relation in other ways. Warmth can lead children to do very well in all things.

In fact, parents are the children's role models. They can teach children not to depend on parents or others. They are also very strict with children. That's to say, children must do as they are told. Setting limits (限制) can help children focus on (集中) the work. For example, limiting television time can help them finish homework on time.

From early childhood, the home becomes a school. And the dinner table might become the desk after dinner. Parents will educate their children much if the parent-child relation is strong. For example, reading books to them will improve their language skills and playing games with them will help them think.

Mom and Dad play different roles in children's lives. Moms are their life teachers. They teach children not to be afraid of new environments. They also spend time on simple and fun activities with children. Dads are their growing teachers. Fathers play an important role in children's feelings and development. The father-child relation always helps children learn to show and control their feelings.

根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。

Honesty is where a good friendship starts. You must tell true feelings to your friends. Keep their secrets to yourself and never break promises, or you may lose your friends.

Generosity means sharing, and sharing makes the friendship grow. You don't have to give your lunch money or your clothes, of course. Instead, you share your ideas and feelings.

Understanding can be valuable to a friend. Everyone needs understanding and help with a problem. Talking about the problem can make it easier to solve. You must try to put yourself in your friend's place, so you can understand the problem better.

No two friendships are ever exactly alike (相像的). But all true friendships may have some things in common. In fact, good friendships will just not easily last. Many people want others to be their friends, but they don't give the friendship back. That is one of the reasons why some friendships don't last very long. Therefore, to keep a lasting friendship, you must give as much as you take.

Some people think they know everything. Anansi, the spider didn't think that. He was a 1 spider. And he knew to have real wisdom, he had to learn more from others.

One day, Anansi found a (an) 2 gourd (葫芦) on the ground and he had an idea. "3 I get advice from others and put it in this gourd, then I'll be wiser than 4 else in the world."

So, he went from house to house and asked the other creatures (生物), "What's your best piece of 5? And they were all happy to share their wisdom, because they could see that Anansi 6 it.

The snail said, "Don't be in a hurry. 7 is not a 100-meter race."

The butterfly said, "Life is short. Enjoy every day."

The ant said, "You'll 8 be great on your own. Everyone needs the help of others."

Anansi was very happy with all the advice. He took it and put it in his gourd. And when he'd filled the gourd, he thought to himself, "Now, I have more wisdom than the others. I must 9 the wisdom, so no one can steal it." He 10 and saw a hole high up in a tree, and he had an idea.

Anansi held the gourd with two legs and tried to 11 the tree with his other six legs. But the gourd was too big and he couldn't climb. His son was nearby watching him. "Daddy," he said, "why don't you 12 the gourd to your back and then climb the tree?" "That's very good advice," said Anansi. "Thank you for sharing it with me." And then Anansi realized that advice is only 13 when we share it with someone.

So he climbed the tree with the gourd on his back. And when Anansi reached the 14, he held the gourd up to the wind. All the advice flew into the sky and traveled 15 the land. And wisdom came to everyone.
