It had not rained in almost a month. The crops were dying. Cows had stopped giving milk. If it did not rain soon, we would lose everything. On this day, I witnessed(目睹) a wonder.I was making lunch when I saw my 6-year-old son, Billy, walking very slowly toward the woods. Minutes later he came running out again, toward the house. Soon after, I saw him walking toward the woods again. This went on for an hour. Finally I walked out of the house quietly and followed him.Billy cupped both hands in front of him as he walked, careful not to drop the water he carried. Leaves slapped his face but he kept walking into the woods. Then I saw an amazing sight. Several large deer stood in front of him. Billy walked right up to them. I saw a tiny baby deer lying on the ground. It was dying of thirst, and it lifted its head with great effort to drink the water in my boys hands.When the water was gone, Billy ran back to the house. I followed him to the tap. Billy opened it and a small trickle(细流) came out. He knelt down, letting the drops slowly fill up his cup.Now I understood what was going on. The week before, he tried giving water to our horses but I told him not to waste water. Now when he stood up and turned, I was there in front of him. His eyes filled with tears, “Im not wasting,” he said. I joined him with a small pot of water from the kitchen. I let him walk to the baby deer alone while I stood at the edge of the woods. As tears rolled down my face, they were suddenly joined by other drops. and more drops. as if the sky itself was crying.（1）What did the writer think of the son?A . Clever.B . Wasteful.C . Helpful.D .

While wed love to start a never-ending discussion over the true self, were here to talk about the cells(细胞)in your body.Do you know how your fingernails and hair are constantly growing and replacing themselves? The same thing happens almost everywhere in your body. Your outer layer of skin makes way for fresher skin, and inside your veins(血管), blood cells turn over to make way for fresh blood. Its probably no surprise that these types of cells are short-lived, even some of the most seemingly permanent(永久的)parts of your body replace themselves over time-including your bones.Strong as your bones might seem, the cells theyre made of wont last a lifetime. Bones are masters at rebuilding themselves, which is why most broken bones can heal on their own into the right shape.Bones have special cells called osteoclasts(破骨细胞)whose job is to break down bone, even if it isnt broken, and send the minerals into the blood stream. This may sound frighteningly like your bones are wearing away, but your body knows what its doing. As osteoclasts break down bone, osteoblasts(成骨细胞)build up new bone to replace the old. By the end of each year, about 10 percent of your entire adult skeleton will have been rebuilt through this process.If 10 percent of your bone breaks down every year, it must take about ten years to renew 100 percent of your skeleton. That would be a great guess, and it lines up nicely with the medical myth that the human bodys cells are fully replaced every seven years, but the body is a bit more complex. That 10 percent is just an average-some bone grows faster than that, and some grows slower. While some parts of your bone will turn over quickly, other parts will stick around for decades. In fact, most bone cells could live as long as 50 years.So before you get wrapped up in an identity crisis(危机)about the cells in your body disappearing on you, know that you can lose some hair and you can cut your nails, but the bones of you arent going anywhere-at least not very soon and not all at once.（1）Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A . All the cells in our body are the same ones that we were born with.B . Our blood cells are constantly growing and replacing themselves.C . It must take about 10 years to rebuild 100 percent of our skeleton.D . Osteoblasts can break down skin and also rebuild it over time.（2）The underlined words wearing away probably mean _. A . building upB . taking offC . dying outD . turning on（3）What does the passage mainly talk about? A . Our skeleton seems permanent but renews itself over time.B . It is not surprising that some cells in our body are short-lived.C . There are two types of cells in our bones: osteoclasts and osteoblasts.D . We are not the same person we were five years ago because of personality.四、 填空题 (共2题；共15分)20. （5分）用括号内所给单词的适当形式填空（1）December is the _（twelve）month of a year.（2）Lily always helps her mother clean the house.
