1、Have you ever been to Singapore? 1. For many Chinese tourists, this small island in Southeast Asia is a wonderful place to take a holiday. On the one hand, more than three quarters of the population are Chinese, so you can simply speak Putonghua a lot of time. On the other hand, Singapore is an English-speaking country, 2. 所以这也是一个练习英语的好地方。
Most large cities have zoos, but have you ever been to a zoo at night? Singapore has a night zoo called the “Night Safari”, 3. It might seem strange to go to a zoo when it’s dark. But if you’ve ever been to a zoo during the daytime, you might understand why this zoo is so special.
5. 许多动物只在晚上醒来, so this is the best time to watch them. If you go to see lions, tigers, or foxes during the daytime, they’ll probably be asleep! At the Night Safari, you can watch these animals in a more natural environment than a normal zoo.
One great thing about Singapore is that 5. the temperature is almost the same all year round. This is because the island is so close to the equator. So you can choose to go whenever you like—spring, summer, autumn, or winter! And, of course, it’s not too far from China!

21、 During my childhood, I was looking forward to growing up. When I began to learn math, I couldn't tell “6” from “9”. The two numbers looked the same to me. This was the beginning of my struggles(挣扎)in school. The teachers in the kindergarten(幼儿园) let students work out some math problems. But at that time, I still couldn't understand which one was “9” and which one was “6”. The teacher said, “You are a stupid kid.” My tears poured down like heavy rain on a summer night.
My parents were top students when they were young. So they had a high expectation for me. They said, “If you don't do well in school, you'll get a spanking(打屁股).”
As time went by, I became a middle school student. Math was still a big problem. I was afraid to get bad grades and I often argued with my parents. I was very worried and tired out and I no longer wanted to grow up.
However, one day I realized that my painful times wouldn't stay with me for my whole life. My pain may be there for a moment, but it will leave after I learn how to deal with it. And all of these painful experiences well reward me, as long as I don't give up. What I need to do is making progress by trying and working as hard as I can.

23、Think about what you like to wear on the weekend. You probably like to put on a pair of blue jeans. At any moment, about half of the world’s people are wearing jeans. But according to a new study, our love for jeans may be bad for Earth. Denim(牛仔布) may be putting some sea animals in danger.
Every time we wash our jeans, very small bits of denim will flow out of our washing machines, down into the rivers, lakes and oceans.
You might wonder: Isn’t denim made of cotton, a natural material? How can it become a danger to nature? Well, when people make jeans, denim is treated with many kinds of man-made chemicals(化学物质). Some improve its durability. A pair of jeans may be worn for many years. Others give jeans their blue color. It makes jeans fashionable.
Scientists studied the Great Lakes in America and the Arctic Ocean in northern Canada. They found denim waste in all of the samples(样本). In the study, the scientists also washed jeans to see how many bits of denim each pair would drop each time to wash. The answer was terrible: About 50,000. Not all of them make their way into the environment. Some good plants hold back 83 to 99 percent of them. This may sound pretty good. However, one percent of 50,000 bits are still 500 per wash. Now think about the number of jeans around the world and the times each of them gets washed.
Does this mean we shouldn’t wear jeans? Probably not. “We need to buy fewer jeans and only wash them when we truly need to do it,” says Sam Athey, one of the scientists. “You don’t need to wash your jeans after wearing them only several times.”
【1】According to the passage, what may not denim be bad for?
A.Rivers.
B.Sea animals.
C.Lakes.
D.People in jeans.
【2】Why does denim pollute the environment?
A.It is made of cotton.
B.It is treated with chemicals.
C.It has bad smells.
D.It has a simple color.
【3】What does the underlined word “durability” mean in paragraph 3?
A.重要性
B.可塑性
C.耐用性
D.时尚性
【4】According to paragraph 4, which of the following is TRUE?
A.Denim waste was found in all the oceans.
B.Some good plants can stop most of denim bits.
C.500 denim bits go in the environment every day.
D.Scientists doing the study are from America.
【5】What should we do according to Sam Athey?
A.We should not wear jeans anymore.
B.We should keep wearing dirty jeans .
C.We should buy fewer jeans and wash less.
