5、 读后续写
It was an art lesson. Rachel sat at the desk watching her classmates busy preparing the water jars and paints. She understood why Mrs Weston asked her to sit down and got Lisa to fetch everything for her. It was always a disaster when Rachel tried to do art!
Rachel sighed and reached out to dip her brush in some black paint and—oh, no! She knocked over the jar. The water spread across the desk and drowned the paper. Lisa called Mrs Weston to see what Rachel had done. Rachel went red in the face. She jumped to her feet to get a cloth. Her chair fell over backwards. She turned round and her paintbrush caught Lisa across the face, giving her a black moustache. Lisa was so surprised that she fell back against a wire bookstand. It was knocked down and the books went all over the floor.
How clumsy(笨拙的)! Rachel thought as she went home on the bus. The bus stopped outside her house. She jumped up and her elbow(肘部) knocked a woman's hat right over her eyes. Oh, no! Rachel said sorry, got off and ran indoors. Mum wasn't in the kitchen but lay in bed as she caught a bad cold. Rachel offered to make a cup of tea but mum would rather wait for dad. Rachel sighed. She understood mum was afraid she would spill it.
"But would you go to Mrs Willow for some cold medicine?" asked mum. Rachel turned to the door at once. "But Rachel, Mrs Willow's house is full of beautiful things, so if she asks you to come in, you'd better say no. " Rachel sighed and ran out.
Mrs Willow was an old lady with white hair and sharp blue eyes living in an old house. She opened the door and invited her in. Rachel said why she came and that she preferred to wait outside remembering her mother's warning. Mrs Willow insisted Rachel come inside. Rachel took a deep breath and stepped in. She looked round Mrs Willow's sitting room and saw at once why mum had been worried.

A City in the Jungle
In the summer of 1848, in Guatemala, a man called Ambrosio Tut went out into the jungle, as he did almost every day. Tut was a gum collector, looking for gum in the jungle. One day, he got to the top of one tree and something caught his eye. He looked out across the trees and saw the tops of some old buildings.
He ran to tell the local governor excitedly, and together they walked into the jungle. There they found Tikal, the city that the Mayans had built many hundreds of years before. The two men saw pyramids, squares and houses.
For a long time before that day, local people had known that somewhere in the jungle there was an old Mayan city. Between 200 and 900 AD, the city of Tikal had been the centre of Mayan civilisation(文明) in the area, but then the Mayans left it—nobody knows why!After 1000 AD, the jungle began to cover it.
Seven years before Tut found Tikal, two British explorers had gone to Guatemala and had written a report about Mayan treasures in the jungle—but they hadn't mentioned Tikal. Even earlier than this, local Indians had told people about a great city hidden in the trees, but no one had listened to them. Now the lost city had been found again, and people went there immediately to see it.
A. But no one had seen it for centuries.
B. To do this, he had to climb the trees.
C. And then people forgot that it was there.
D. So they lost the chance to find the treasure.
E. Tut found many other treasures after that.
F. More and more scientists began to study the Mayan city.
G. Tut didn't really know what he had seen but he knew it was something special.

By the end of the century, if not sooner, the world's oceans will be bluer and greener thanks to a warming climate, according to a new study.
At the heart of the phenomenon lie tiny marine microorganisms(海洋微生物) called phytoplankton. Because of the way light reflects off the organisms, these phytoplankton create colourful patterns at the ocean surface. Ocean colour varies from green to blue, depending on the type and concentration of phytoplankton. Climate change will fuel the growth of phytoplankton in some areas, while reducing it in other spots, leading to changes in the ocean's appearance.
Phytoplankton live at the ocean surface, where they pull carbon dioxide into the ocean while giving off oxygen. When these organisms die, they bury carbon in the deep ocean, an important process that helps to regulate the global climate. But phytoplankton are vulnerable to the ocean's warming trend. Warming changes key characteristics of the ocean and can affect phytoplankton growth, since they need not only sunlight and carbon dioxide to grow, but also nutrients.
Stephanie Dutkiewicz, a scientist in MIT's Centre for Global Change Science, built a climate model that projects changes to the oceans throughout the century. In a world that warms up by 3℃, it found that multiple changes to the colour of the oceans would occur. The model projects that currently blue areas with little phytoplankton could become even bluer. But in some waters, such as those of the Arctic, a warming will make conditions riper for phytoplankton, and these areas will turn greener. "Not only are the quantities of phytoplankton in the ocean changing, " she said, "but the type of phytoplankton is changing. "
(1)、What are the first two paragraphs mainly about?A、The various patterns at the ocean surface. B、The cause of the changes in ocean colour. C、The way light reflects off marine organisms. D、The efforts to fuel the growth of phytoplankton.(2)、What does the underlined word "vulnerable" in paragraph 3 probably mean?A、Sensitive. B、Beneficial. C、Significant. D、Unnoticeable.(3)、What can we learn from the text?A、Phytoplankton play a declining role in the marine ecosystem. B、Dutkiewicz's model aims to project phytoplankton changes. C、Phytoplankton have been used to control global climate. D、Oceans with more phytoplankton may appear greener.(4)、What is the main purpose of the text?A、To assess the consequences of ocean colour changes. B、To analyse the composition of the ocean food chain. C、To explain the effects of climate change on oceans. D、To introduce a new method to study phytoplankton. -

California has lost half its big trees since the 1930s, according to a study to be published Tuesday and climate change seems to be a major factor.
The number of trees larger than two feet across has declined by 50 percent on more than 46, 000 square miles of California forests, the new study finds. No area was spared or unaffected, from the foggy northern coast to the Sierra Nevada Mountains to the San Gabriels above Los Angeles. In the Sierra high country, the number of big trees has fallen by more than 55 percent; in parts of southern California the decline was nearly 75 percent.
Many factors contributed to the decline, said Patrick McIntyre, an ecologist who was the lead author of the study. Woodcutters targeted big trees. Housing development pushed into the woods. Aggressive wildfire control has left California forests crowded with small trees that compete with big trees for resources.
But in comparing a study of California forests done in the 1920s and 1930s with another one between 2001 and 2010, McIntyre and his colleagues documented a widespread death of big trees that was evident even in wildlands protected from woodcutting or development.
The loss of big trees was greatest in areas where trees had suffered the greatest water shortage. The researchers figured out water stress with a computer model that calculated how much water trees were getting in comparison with how much they needed, taking into account such things as rainfall, air temperature, dampness of soil, and the timing of snowmelt.
Since the 1930s, McIntyre said, the biggest factors driving up water stress in the state have been rising temperatures, which cause trees to lose more water to the air, and earlier snowmelt, which reduces the water supply available to trees during the dry season.
(1)、What is the second paragraph mainly about?A、The seriousness of big-tree loss in California. B、The increasing variety of California big trees. C、The distribution of big trees in California forests. D、The influence of farming on big trees in California.(2)、Which of the following is well-intentioned but may be bad for big trees?A、Ecological studies of forests. B、Banning woodcutting. C、Limiting housing development. D、Fire control measures.(3)、What is a major cause of the water shortage according to McIntyre?A、Inadequate snowmelt. B、A longer dry season. C、A warmer climate. D、Dampness of the air.(4)、What is a suitable title for the text?A、California's Forests: Where Have All the Big Trees Gone? B、Cutting of Big Trees to Be Prohibited in California Soon C、Why Are the Big Trees Important to California Forests? D、Patrick McIntyre: Grow More Big Trees in California -
