Some people might think of oysters (牡蛎) as delicious seafood or beautiful pearls (珍珠). But for some people, oysters are environmental superstars. Demi Johnson, a 15-year-old girl, is one of them. "They're really important," Demi says. A single oyster can clean up to 50 gallons (加仑) of seawater a day. They are important helpers for our oceans.
Demi learned about oysters' superpowers through "oyster gardening"—raising young oysters in cages not to eat, but to help the environment. In fact, she knew nothing about oyster gardening when she started in 2022. After taking a free class, now she has become an expert. This year, she even won a master oyster gardener prize. "You don't have to do a lot to take care of them, but the influence on the environment is great," Demi says.
There used to be lots of oysters in coastal waters. But their numbers have declined. This is mainly because of pollution and storms. Oyster gardening is a way to help. Now, Demi has several cages. Every week, she pulls the cages from the water to check her oysters and make sure they are healthy. When the oysters grow big, they are put into the sea to help other sea animals.
Up to now, Demi has already helped raise over 1,500 oysters! She also won an award and used the prize money to help more people start oyster gardening. Demi shows how young people can make a real difference for our planet.
(1)、What can oysters do for the oceans according to paragraph 1?A、They can produce pearls. B、They can protect coastlines.
C、They can clean seawater. D、They can feed sea animals.(2)、How did Demi learn to be an oyster gardener?A、By attending a free class. B、By joining in a competition.
C、By winning a national prize. D、By watching a video online.(3)、What does the underlined word "declined" in paragraph 3 probably mean?A、Fallen. B、Grown. C、Disappeared. D、Remained.(4)、Why does Demi pull the cages out of water weekly?A、She needs to collect pearls from the oysters.
B、She plans to sell the cages to other gardeners.
C、She hopes to count the number of oysters inside.

Do you know how astronauts take a shower (淋浴) in space?It is easy on Earth,but in space,it was a big problem because of low gravity.
In the 1960s,astronauts took sponge baths—they cleaned their bodies with a wet towel(毛巾),soap(香皂) and a little water.Because there wasn't enough water for a full-body cleaning.And they wore the same clothes inside their spacesuits for a long time.As a result,astronauts often returned to Earth with a bad smell.
Things got better in 1973.A space station got its first real shower.However,using it was not easy.Astronauts had to tie their feet to the wall so that they wouldn't float away.Each person got only about three liters of water,and taking a shower usually took over two hours!After showering,they faced the most important work:carefully collecting every drop of water because floating water could break the machines inside the space station.
Today,on the International Space Station,astronauts use a better"sponge bath"way to clean themselves.They use a wet towel,a special kind of soap and a little water.The biggest improvement is the airflow system.It helps dry astronauts' hair and bodies quickly and recycle all the water.In this way,astronauts can stay clean every day.
The development of space showers doesn't end here.Maybe one day,taking a shower in space will be just as easy as that on Earth.
(1)、How was taking a showing in space according to paragraph 1?A、Interesting. B、Difficult. C、Wonderful. D、Dangerous.(2)、Why did astronauts smell bad in the 1960s?①There wasn't enough water.
②There was no place to shower.
③They seldom change their clothes.
④They had no soap for keeping clean.
A、①③ B、②③ C、①④ D、②④(3)、What should astronauts do after showering according to paragraph 3?A、Check the shower time. B、Tie their feet to the wall. C、Design new machine parts. D、Collect water drops carefully.(4)、What can we learn about the airflow system in paragraph 4?A、It dries the air in space stations. B、It keeps the astronauts warmer. C、It makes astronauts shower better. D、It produces fresh air for astronauts.(5)、What is the best title for the text?A、showering in Space B、Experiments in Space C、Life without Showers D、History of Space Stations -
