Put 2 February in your diary! It is World Wetlands Day! It marks the date that the
Convention(公约) on Wetlands was signed(签署)in1971.This special day was first celebrated in 1997 and it is celebrated every year.
The celebration is a call for action. It is a way to show people how important and
useful the wetlands are for people. On World Wetlands Day, people around the world take
part in many wetlands activities. People take trips to the local wetlands. There are talks
about how important the wetlands are. People get together to clean up their local wetlands
Children draw pictures to advertise the day. People also compete(比赛)in boat races.
The World Wetlands Day is important! If there are no wetlands, there will be no water for anyone in the future. Wetlands help protect nature and resources(资源)like fresh water. Already,  more than 10000 million people in the world do not have fresh water.
Many people do not know how important the wetlands are. They can understand why an
elephant or a tiger is important because they are big, beautiful animals. It is much harder for
them to understand how important the animals in the wetlands are. These small animals,
such as frogs and snails, play a very important part in keeping the balance of nature.
All plants and animals are part of the food chain(链).If the small wetlands animals
die, some animals in the food chain will have nothing to eat. They will also die. People
need the wetlands to keep the balance of nature in the world. If we do not protect nature
today,it will be gone tomorrow

Since several years ago, more and more people have used micro blogs in our country.Recent surveys (调查) shows that most students in middle schools have a micro blog and some even update (更新) their blogs over five times per day.
“We learn many fresh and interesting things on micro blogs and they have become popular topics in class,” said Kitty Jiang, 14.“If you do not know about them, you are out of loop.” It is also a great place for students to say something about themselves.“My parents always ask me to study hard, and encourage me before exams, but it really gives me pressure (压力),” said Alan Wang, 15.“I share these feelings on my micro blog.My friends always give me answers in the same situation.This makes me feel better.”
But parents worry that micro blogging could be a waste of time.Some unhealthy information may even bring danger to kids, they said.
Mr Shen, a professor (教授) asks parents not to worry too much as long as kids are not crazy about micro blogging.Maybe it can become a window for parents to understand their children.“If parents can read their children’s micro blogs, they’ll know what they think, they can know more about their children and help them solve their problems,” he said.He also gives some advice for kids.

Are you an only-child in your family? Are you feeling alone at home? How are you dealing with it?
Zhang Luwen, 12, feels lucky to have a 4-year-old “brother”. “With him, I never feel lonely at home. He goes with me wherever I go,” said the girl of Sichuan Province. But it is not easy to be a sister. Zhang has to help her parents bath her “brother” every week. This is because he is hairy — he is a dog.
As the number of pet owners in China grows more and more, Chinese students have animal friends at home. Experts say that these small animals give these only-children lessons in love, care, teamwork and generosity.
This month, the first study on the influence of pets on the children came out. It is a survey of 402 Beijing primary school students. It shows that animal friends are good for children.
China had more than 90 million only-children by 2006, according to the government. “In families of three, most children feel lonely. They don’t have many chances to learn how to love and be responsible for others,” said Zhou Xia in the study group. “So having a pet can help with the problem.”
However, some students complain that their parents don’t allow them to have pets. “They are afraid a pet would stop me studying,” said Chen Qi, of Chongqing.
Perhaps he could learn from Qin Yixing, 13, of Beijing. “I don’t play with my dog until I have finished my homework. I made the promise to my mom and I must keep it,” said the girl

  1. 1.

    According to the passage, experts think _______

    1. A.
      it is good for students to have animal friends at home
    2. B.
      only-children families in China will be fewer and fewer
    3. C.
      small animals at home are bad for students
    4. D.
      parents should buy more pet animals for their children
  2. 2.

    What can we learn from the passage?

    1. A.
      Zhang Luwen’s parents bath every week
    2. B.
      Zhou Xia thinks a pet animal can solve the problem that children feel lonely
    3. C.
      Chen Qi of Chongqing has got a pet animal
    4. D.
      Qin Yixing’s parents don’t want her to have a pet
