21、Billions of locusts (蝗虫) are moving through farms and fields in the East African countries of Ethiopia, Kenya and Somalia.

Locusts are grasshoppers (蚱蜢). Normally grasshoppers don't travel in groups so they do little harm. But when there are lots of them, their bodies and behavior change. That’s when they become locusts. Locusts travel in huge groups,

laying eggs along the way, which produces even more locusts. In a single day, a small swarm (群) of the insects can eat as much food as 35 ,000 people do.

The locust swarms in Ethiopia and Somalia are the worst in 25 years. These locusts are desert locusts. They began swarming about six months ago. By moving with the winds, desert locusts can travel up to 90 miles a day or more.

Locust swarms are more common when heavy rains follow a long dry period. The insects lay their eggs in the wet ground. This season, East Africa has had its heaviest rainy season in 40 years.

When the insects swarm (成群地飞来飞去), one square kilometer of land can hold as many as 150 million locusts. There are 700 square kilometers of land covered by the insects in Kenya alone.

The insects are a threat to lives in the regions, where food is already in short supply. Already many farmers who keep animals are struggling because locusts have eaten up the plants the animals usually live on

In East Africa, farmers have been shooting into the air or making noises in the fields, but that doesn’t work against so many insects. Experts say that spraying pesticides (杀虫剂) over large areas from airplanes is the only way to reduce the number of the insects. The UN has released (释放) $ 10 million to help deal with the locust problem. The UN says about $70 million is needed to truly control the locusts with pesticides.

【1】Which is TRUE about locusts?

A．Normally they don’t travel in groups.

B．A small swarm of locusts eat a lot of food a day.

C．They lay eggs in the wind.

D．They do little harm to the plants.

【2】East Africa has got the locust problem because ________.

A．the land is too dry to grow crops

B．farmers pull out all the grass there

C．poor people love to eat locusts as food

D．it has too much rain after the dry season

【3】How many locusts are there in Kenya?

A．About 150,000,000.

B．About 700,000,000.

C．About 1,850,000, 000.

D．About 105,000, 000,000.

【4】According to the passage, a “threat” probably can ________.

A．bring good luck to people

B．make people live a happy life

C．cause danger in the future

D．help keep more animals

【5】We can infer from the last paragraph that ________.

A．farmers are trying to scare the insects off

B．spraying pesticides can’t solve the locust problem

C．the UN thinks the locust problem isn’t serious

D．East Africa has required no more help so far

22、As a man was passing the elephants, he suddenly stopped, he was surprised to see that these huge elephants were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg. It was clear that the elephants could easily break away from their ropes but for some reason, they did not.

He saw a trainer nearby and asked why these animals just stood there and didn’t run away. “Well,” the trainer said, “when they are very young and much smaller we use the same size rope to tie them and, at that age, it’s enough to hold them. As they grow up, they believe they cannot break away. They believe the rope can still hold them, so they never try to break free.”

The man was surprised. These animals could at any time break free from their ropes but because they believed they couldn’t, they were stuck(困在) right where they were.

Like the elephants, how many of us go through life hanging onto a belief that we cannot do something, simply because we failed at it once before?

In December 1903, New York Times questioned the intelligence of the Wright brothers efforts to invent a machine that would fly. But one week later, at Kitty Hawk, the Wright Brothers took their famous flight.

Albert Einstein did not speak until he was four and did not read until he was seven. His teachers and even his parents thought he was very slow. And while he may have been a 'slow starter', I'm sure you'd agree that he was very successful in the end.

Failure is part of learning; we should never give up the struggle in life.

【1】Why do the elephants never try to break away from the ropes?

A. Because they are too young to do it.   B. Because the rope is very strong.

C. Because they think they can’t.   D. Because they think the trainer will beat them.

【2】How did the man feel after he heard what the trainer said?

A. Excited   B. Relaxed   C. Happy   D. Surprised

【3】Which of the following is right according to the paragraph?

A. The trainer takes very good care of the big elephants.

B. The same size ropes can hold the big and small elephants.

C. The Wright brothers didn’t invent the first plane.

D. Albert Einstein did not speak or read until he was seven.

【4】What can we learn from this passage?

A. Failing is part of learning.   B. We should learn from the trainer.

C. Training animals is interesting.   D. We should give up the struggle in life.

【5】What is the best title for this test?

A. Young And Old Elephants.   B. A Clever Trainer

C. The Elephant Training   D. The Elephant Rope

23、   The Wilsons decided to go overseas for a vacation. They had a family meeting to plan the vacation.

“First,” Mr. Wilson said, “we should decide where we want to go.”

“I don’t agree,” Mrs. Wilson said. “I think we should decide when we want to go first. We don’t want to go to some countries where it’s cold.”

Mr. Wilson agreed, so the family’s first decision was when to go on vacation. They decided to go in July, when it’s warm throughout the northern hemisphere(半球).

 “Now we can decide where to go,” Mr. Wilson said.

“But, Dad,” Ben said, “don’t you think that where we go depends on how we go? If we plan to fly, we can go a long way. If we plan to drive, we can’t go so far.”

Again Mr. Wilson agreed, and they discussed this. At last they agreed to travel by plane.

Then Mr. Wilson said, “Now, where do we want to go?”

 “Actually, Dad,” Trudy said, “l think we should work out how many days we’ll have before we can decide where to go.”

And so the meeting went on. The next day, one of Mr. Wilson’s friends at work asked, “Have you planned your vacation yet?”

“We’ve decided when we want to go, how we want to get there and how many days we can spend,” Mr. Wilson told him, “but we still haven’t decided where we’re going!”
