When you look at the sky at night, the moon looks bigger than the stars. Actually, the moon is much smaller than the stars and the sun. It’s much smaller than the earth. But the moon is much closer to us than any star. That is why it looks so big. If you hold a coin close to your eye, it looks big. If you look at it across the moon, it looks small.
The moon moves around the earth. It makes one trip in about four weeks. The moon looks flat to us. But it is a round ball, like the earth.
People once thought the moon had fire on it. They thought the fire made it bright. Now we know the moon is like a mirror. It gets its light from the sun.
Our sunlight comes from the sun, too. What is the sun? The sun is a star. The stars we can see have their own light. There are many big stars we cannot see. Their light had burned out. Others are still bright, but they are so far away that we cannot see them. The sun looks bigger and much brighter than other stars because it is the nearest of all stars. The sun and the other stars we see are very hot, but the air around us saves us from the heat of the sun.
The sun gives us light and warmth. It makes plants grow and turns leaves green. It makes life possible on our earth. It is a life giving star.
小题1: It takes _______ for the moon to go around the earth.
A.more than a weekB.nearly a monthC.half a yearD.more than a year
小题2: The moon is bright because _______.
A.there is some fire on itB.it is near the sun, too
C.there is a big mirror on itD.it can get light from the sun
小题3: The passage tells us _______.
A.the sun is not the biggest starB.the sun is bigger than any other star
C.only the sun can shineD.the sun is one of the farthest stars to us
小题4: Why do we call the sun "a life giving star"?
A.Because it gives us warmth.
B.Because there are some living things on it.
C.Because plants and animals can’t live without it.
D.Because people have to live in the dark without it.

  We need to be responsible for our environment. Being a frugal consumer(节俭的消费者) is one way to help. But, what exactly does that mean?
  Use It Up
  You can use things up instead of wasting them. Squeeze that last bit of toothpaste out of the tube. Use the last little piece of soap. Don't throw away any bits of the biscuit at the bottom of the box.
  Wear It Out
  You do not always need to have new things. Suppose your sneakers have broken laces, but they still fit you. Repair them and wear them longer. You don't have the latest iPhone until the old one doesn't work anymore. Then you can get a new one. Think twice before replacing something that still works.
  Make It Do
  When something you want is not on hand, look for something else that you already have to take its place. Suppose you are packing your lunch for tomorrow and want a butter sandwich. You are out of butter. Have a cheese sandwich instead so that you can use all of the cheese. Learn to fix broken toys instead of just throwing them away. With a little thought, you can make something do, instead of buying something new.
  Do Without
  Think about all those things that you would like to have. Do you really need them? How long will you really play with that new toy you saw on TV? Making the things that we want uses up your world's resources(资源). And, getting rid of the things we don't want any more takes up even more resources and space.
 小题1:Do we need to be responsible for our environment?
 小题2: How do we deal with the last little piece of soap?
 小题3:When do we need to get a new iPhone?
 小题4: What should we do when something we want is not on hand?
小题5:What does the writer want to tell us?

But soon the laughter becomes real.”

It is said that another acre of the world’s forest will be destroyed forever. Why is this happening? There are two reasons — land and wood. In many countries the trees have been cut down because the land was needed for animals or crops. In other parts of the world the trees are cut down because their wood is wanted. This wood is used by local people for firewood or it is used for building. But many people don’t know that in most places the trees won’t be replaced. The soil in the forests is very thin, but it is protected by the trees. When the trees are cut down, the soil is washed away by the rain or blown away by the wind. Soon nothing can be grown on it. The  forest becomes a desert. Then more land will be needed, and more trees will be cut down.
When the forest is destroyed, it isn’t only the trees that are lost — the homes of millions of animals and plants are destroyed, too. All kinds of animals are in danger — fish,reptiles, birds, mammals, insects, and shellfish — as well as thousands of plants.
Who is to blame for this? The answer is simple: all of us. There are just too many people in the world. The world’s population is now six billion. Of course, it’s very easy to blame the local people. We don’t cut down trees. They do. But the products are bought by people like you and me — wood houses, beds, tables, chairs, paper… Why are the forests being destroyed? Just look around. You are probably using it right now.
小题1:People cut down large areas of trees in order to _________.
A.grow cropsB.keep animalsC.build housesD.get land and wood
小题2: In most places, __________after trees are cut down.
A.new trees can grow betterB.forests will become deserts
C.most animals can live thereD.people build new house there
小题3: According to the passage, we should  _________________ to protect the forest.
A.use fewer wood productsB.plant more trees
C.blame the local peopleD.protect the soil

To be a good teacher, you need some of the gifts of a good actor; you must be able to hold the attention and interest of your audience; you must be a clear speaker, with a good, strong, pleasant voice which is fully under your control; and you must be able to act what you are teaching, in order to make its meaning clear.
Watch a good teacher, and you will see that he doesn’t sit still before his class; he stands the whole time he is teaching; he walks about, using his arms, hands and fingers to help him in his explanations, and his face to express feelings.
There are very important differences between the teacher’s work and the actor’s.
The actor has to speak words which he has learnt by heart; he has to repeat exactly the same words each time he plays a certain part, even his movements and the ways in which he uses his voice are usually fixed beforehand(预先).What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem natural on the stage. A good teacher works in quite a different way. His audience take an active part in his play: they ask and answer questions, they obey orders, and if they don’t understand anything, they say so. The teacher can’t learn his part by heart, but must invent it as he goes along.
I have known many teachers who are fine actors in class but are unable to take part in a stage-play because they can’t keep strictly to what another has written.
小题1: What does the underlined word “gifts” mean?
A.presentsB.knowledge
C.skillsD.advantages
小题2:Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A.A good teacher should speak clearly.
B.A good teacher should sit still before his class and speak with his body language.
C.A good actor should speak as others have asked him to do.
D.A good actor should repeat exactly the same words each time he plays a certain part.
小题3:The skills of a good teacher are        .
A.draw his students’ attention.B.change his voice when needed.
C.act out what he is teachingD.all the above
小题4:From the passage, we know        .
A.a good teacher should be a good actorB.a good teacher may be unable to act well on the stage
C.a good actor should be a good teacherD.a good actor may act well in class
小题5:The title of the passage is         .
A.How to be a good teacherB.How to be a good actor
C.A good teacher’s knowledgeD.A good actor’s behaviour
