So instead of spending their whole school day learning, Mathilda and her classmates start their day by spending two hours to the closest river fetching water -water that is anyway most likely not safe to drink. They do the same thing again in the afternoon, so they often lose around half of their school day fetching water.Mathilda has to do the same thing outside of school hours to get the water her family needs at home, leaving her little time for studying. Because of rising temperatures, water has bee harder and harder to find here, and people have to spend more and more time trying to find it.This is just one small example of how climate change is making it harder to realize peoples rights to water, education and security. Unfortunately, most higher-ine countries remained silent on the issue.This is despite studies showing that munities already facing marginalization(边缘化),such as women and children, mostly suffer from climate change. This is especially the case for those in Z-x-x-kcountries with limited resources and fragile ecosystems.Meanwhile, women consist of the majority of the world s poor，and so are more dependent for their livelihood on natural resources that are threatened by climate change. And around the world, women and girls are the most likely to be responsible for fetching water for their families.This exposes them to danger and leaves them with less time to attend school, earn money, or simply to rest. But the fact is that the effects of climate change will be felt globally.Despite the difficulties she is facing, trying to get an education, Mathilda says she hopes to serve her munity in a leadership role when she grows up.“All of the worlds leaders need to work together to solve this problem that we are all facing,” she said.24. Mathilda has to spend _fetching water every school day.A. two hours B. four hours C. more than four hoursD. almost a whole day25. The first two paragraphs are intended to tell us_.A. the cause and effect of lack of water B. one serious consequence of climate changeC. the difficulties in fetching water in the semiarid regionD. the hardship of life for the people in the semiarid region26. We can conclude from the passage that_.A. climate change is everyones business B. water is being rare because of rising temperaturesC. fetching water takes up Mathildas half of studying timeD. females are more responsible for fetching water for their families27. The passage is mainly about the problem caused by_.A. rising temperatures B. fetching water C. climate change D. water shortageC Chinas admiration of outstanding scholars has turned the well-preserved childhood home of Tu Youyou, the Chinese pharmacologist(药理学家) who won this years Nobel Prize in physiology(生理学) or Medicine, into a popular tourist destination. Since it was announced on Monday that 84-year-old Tu had bee the first Chinese citizen to win this international prize, her former home in the old town of Ningbo, Zhejiang province, has attracted visitors, especially parents and their children-even though it is not open to the public. The house, where Tu lived until she went to university in Beijing, covers an area of 2,200 square meters and is priced at 150 million yuan( $ 23. 6 million) . It is part of a plex of 37 traditional buildings, including several city-and-district-level cultural relic preservation sites, that have been trans formed into a high-end art, and mercial zone, . There are continually parents taking their children, from infants in strollers to college students, to take photos in front of Tus former home. Security guards have been ordered to go on patrol around the clock, said Mr. Zhao, a salesperson from Ningbo Real Estate Inc Co. Shanghai resident Xu Lingfei, who was on a trip to Ningbo, took her 9 year-old son to walk around the plex on Wednesday. Chinese people believe in exams and awards and have a strong preference for high performers. Taking children to visit the former dwelling places of celebrities(名人) is a way to inspire them to study harder, Xu said. Something similar happened after Mo Yan won the Nobel Prize for literature in xx.

Animals cant talk, but can they lie in other ways? Can they lie with their bodies and behavior? Animal experts may not call it lying, but they do agree that many animals, from birds to chimpanzees, behave dishonestly to fool other animals. Why? Dishonesty often helps them survive.Many kinds of birds are very successful at fooling other animals. For example, a bird called the plover sometimes pretends to be hurt in order to protect its young. When apredator（猎食动物）gets close to its nest, the plover leads the predator away from the nest. How? It pretends to have a broken wing. The predator follows the hurt adult, leaving the baby birds safe in the nest. Another kind of bird, the scrub jay, buries its food so it always has something to eat. Scrub jays are also thieves. They watch where others bury their food and steal it. But clever scrub jays seem to know when a thief is watching them. So they go back later, unbury the food, and bury it again somewhere else.Birds called cuckoos have found a way to have babies without doing much work. How? They dont make nests（鸟巢）. Instead, they get into other birds nests secretly. Then they lay their eggs and fly away. When the baby birds e out, their adoptive(收养的) parents feed them. Chimpanzees, or chimps, can also be sneaky.After a fight, the losing chimp will give its hand to the other. When the winning chimp puts out its hand, too, the chimps are friendly again. But an animal expert once saw a losing chimp take the winners hand and start fighting again.Chimps are sneaky in other ways, too. When chimps find food that they love, such as bananas, it is natural for them to cry out. Then other chimps e running. But some clever chimps learn to cry very softly when they find food. That way, other chimps dont hear them, and they dont need to share their food.As children, many of us learn the saying You cant fool Mother Nature. But maybe you cant trust her, either.32. A plover protects its young from a predator by_.A. getting closer to its young B. driving away the adult predatorC. leaving its young in another nest D. pretending to be injured33. ByChimpanzees, or chimps, can also be sneaky(paragraph 5), the author means_.A. chimps are ready to attack others B. chimps are sometimes dishonestC. chimps are jealous of the winners D. chimps can be selfish too34. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Cuckoos fool their adoptive parents by making no nests.B. The losing chimp won the fight by taking the winners hand.C. Some chimps lower their cry to keep food away from others.D. Some clever scrub jays often steal their food back.35. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. Do animals lie? B. Does Mother Nature fool animals?C. How do animals learn to lie? D. How does honesty help animals survive?第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Why eyesight is so importantEyesight plays a very important role in our daily life.
