26、   Scientists are urging that deep sea metal mining should be stopped temporarily. They warn in a report that it can cause severe damaging effects on Pacific Ocean areas.

The recently-released report examined more than 250 published studies on deep-sea mining. The research was examined by the Deep Sea Mining Campaign — a collection of not-for profit organizations. The report centers on mining activities related to small metallic particles(金属颗粒)，called nodules, found on the seabed. The material can contain different metals. Increasing demand for these metals has led to a rise in deep-sea mining operations. The metals are commonly used in battery manufacturing and other technology products.

However, the scientists warn that mining for these nodules will cause irreversible(不可逆的) damage to an ocean already under pressure. The operations will affect areas across the South Pacific, including the nations of Kiribati, the Cook Islands, Nauru, Tonga and Papua New Guinea.

The report notes that a moratorium is the only responsible way to move forward until certain conditions surrounding deep-sea mining can be met. The scientists are calling for additional study to fully understand the environmental, social and economic risks.

Andrew Chin is the report's lead researcher. He says in a statement that nodule mining will likely result in the loss of sea life and cause damage to deep seabeds for thousands of years. He adds that the operations can put people at risk who depend on the ocean and its continued health.

A company planning to be one of the first to carry out mining operations in the area is Canada's DeepGreen, which aims to begin by 2024. It seeks to mine metallic nodules to be used in power systems for electric vehicles. DeepGreen Chief Executive Officer Gerard Barron defended the company's plans in reaction to the report. He said deep-sea mining offered the best alternative to surface mining, which has long history of pollution and destroying forests and wildlife.

【1】Why are deep-sea mining operations on the rise?

A．More metals are needed.

【2】Which of the following best explains the word “moratorium" underlined in paragraph 4?

C．Permanent deal.

D．Temporary stop.

【3】What can we learn from Andrew Chin's words?

A．Conditions surrounding deep-sea mining are great.

B．The damage caused by nodule mining is reversible.

C．Nodule mining can cause harm in various aspects.

D．People sure less likely to be affected by nodule mining,

【4】What's Gerard Barron's attitude towards deep-sea mining?

A．Opposed.

B．Supportive.

C．Ambiguous.

D．Unconcerned.

【5】This article aims to_______.

A．introduce a new mining technology

C．draw attention to environmental protecting

29、   On the first day of school, all the excited students walked into the room expecting to start: everyone but David.

He had had a hard summer. His father was in jail (监狱). His mother had to work nights, so she wasn't at home in the evening and was sleeping when he woke up.

As the weeks went on, David slowly gave up doing his homework and staying on task, and began to get into more troubles out on the playground. He was going downhill quickly. It was clear that he was looking for any kind of attention—even if it was negative. I also knew that he was not getting much support at home. If David was going to pass the fifth grade, I need to come up with a plan.

One day, David and I sat in the library and just talked. I told him that I knew that he was not an “F” student and that I was not going to let him fail. It was my job to teach him, but his job was to try. We talked about home and what he did after school. He knew what I expected him to do and that I respected him as a person. As a result, his behavior in my room improved. From then on David and I periodically sat in the library and just talked. He told me that his goal was to pass the fifth grade and not be suspended (停学). Finally, the last day of school arrived. David had met his goal.

During Teacher Appreciation (感谢) Week, the students had written about any teacher they wanted. In my booklet, on a wrinkled piece of paper, it reads. “You never give up on me and focus on the silver lining because you know I am smart. And for that I not only appreciate you, but admire you”, signed David. After reading that, I sat down with tears rolling down my face. We, as teachers, never know when or how we affect our students. But it's the note like this that makes all we do worthwhile.

【1】According to the passage, we know the writer is_____________.

A.talented B.brainless C.patient D.selfish

【2】Why did David like to make troubles in school?

A.Because his father was put into prison.

B.Because he was disappointed to the society.

C.Because he was laughed at by classmates.

D.Because he wanted to attract attention.

【3】Which of the following quotes can express the writer's feeling?

A.Teachers appreciate being appreciated, for teacher appreciation is their highest award. —William Prince

B.Teach the children so that it will not be necessary to teach the adults.—Abraham Lincoln

C.What the teacher is, is more important than what he teaches.—Karl Menninger

D.The very spring and root of honesty and virtue lie in good education.—Plutarch

32、阅读下面短文, 根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。

Children start out as natural scientists, eager to look into the world around them. Helping them enjoy science can be easy: there’s no need for a lot of scientific terms or expensive lab equipment. You only have to share your children’s curiosity. When having a science discussion with them, you need to notice at least three things.

Firstly, give them time to think. Studies over the past 30 years have shown that after asking a question, adults typically wait only one second or less for an answer, no time for a child to think. When adults increase their “wait time” to three seconds or more, children give more logical, complete and creative answers.

Secondly, watch your language. Once you have a child involved in a science discussion, don’t jump in with “That’s right” or “Very good”. These words work well when it comes to encouraging good behavior. But in talking about science, quick praise can signal that discussion is over. Instead, keep things going by saying “That’s interesting,” or “I’d never thought of it that way before.” or coming up with more questions or ideas.

Lastly, show, don’t tell. Real-life impressions of nature are far more impressive than any lesson children can learn from a book or a television program. Let children look at their fingertips through a magnifying glass(放大镜), and they’ll understand why you want them to wash before dinner. Rather than saying that water evaporates(蒸发), set a pot of water to boil and let them watch the water level drop.
