    What should we do when we are in a bad situation? Some may choose to give up. But is that what we should do? The following news report may get you encouraged.

    With a population of 156 million, Bangladesh has one of the largest populations in the world. What makes the situation worse is that most of the country is situated on the low-lying Ganges delta(三角洲). As a result, it often suffers flooding, especially during the rainy season from July to October. In this period, the rivers rise as much as 12 feet. In such situations, people can only get to certain places by boat.

    The problems are particularly serious in the Chalanbeel region, a poor area where people survive by farming on the rich delta soil when it is not underwater. But many parents there don’t want to send their children to school and there are not enough teachers. As a result, many kids living there do not attend school on a regular basis. The problem becomes worse during the rainy season when land schools cannot be reached. Many students never return to school after the forced breaks.

    How to help students attend school regularly? 22-year-old Bangladeshi architect Mohammed Rezwan decided to take action. In 2002, the young man used $500 he had received in scholarships to start Shidhulai Swanirvar Sangstha. The non-profit organization’s mission was to set up floating schools. It took Rezwan four years to raise enough funds to open his first boat school. But as the world began to know about the organization’s worthy cause, money started to pour in. Until now, Shidhulai Swanirvar Sangstha has built 22 floating schools, some with playgrounds on the upper deck. Now a lot more children in the Chalanbeel region go to school regularly.

    We should keep in mind that there is always a solution to every problem.

    1.Which of the following statements about Bangladesh is TRUE?

    A. It hardly suffers floods after October.

    B. There are not many rivers around the country.

    C. It is situated on the low-lying Ganges delta.

    D. It sees a lot of floods from July to October.

    2.It is implied in Paragraph 3 that in the Chalanbeel region, ________.

    A. children can’t receive a good education

    B. farmers don’t have rich soil to grow crops

    C. parents consider education very important

    D. teachers lose jobs as there aren’t enough students

    3.Knowing about the cause of Mohammed Rezwan’s organization, many people ________.

    A. realized education is very important

    B. decided to do what they could to help

    C. didn’t think his idea could be carried out

    D. were encouraged and tried to solve their problems

    Dear Sir,

    How are everything going? I am writing to tell you that I have made a lot of progresses.

Besides, his friends are always visiting him, that disturbs me a lot. So I hope to draw your attention to this problem. I am surely you will agree that the only solution for I is to get a room of my own, one not in the same building and as near to the school campus as possible. I would appreciate very much if you could do me the favor.

    Best wishes.

    Yours sincerely,

    Li Ming

    Imagine you are in a jumping contest. Animals and insects can also enter this contest. But they might just leave humans in the dust!

    The first event is the long jump. The human athlete is Mike Powell. In 1991, he jumped nearly 30 feet, which is the world record for the long jump. That is about five times his own height.

    His competitor in the long-jump contest is a frog named “Rosie the Ribbiter.” Rosie set the world record for frogs in 1986 by jumping more than 21 feet. Her record has never been broken by any other frog. Compared to Mike Powell, Rosie’s jump is not that amazing. But wait! Rosie is only about 10 inches long when her legs are stretched to their full length. She can jump more than 25 times her size. Rosie, the frog, wins the long-jump event.

    The next event is the high jump. Javier Sotomayor, the world record holder, can jump a bar (横杆) 8 feet high. That is about as high as the ceiling in most homes.

    Looking around for someone to challenge his record, Javier might need a magnifying glass (放大镜). The next contestant is a tiny insect called the spittlebug (吹沫虫).

    The spittlebug can jump 28 inches into the air. It is only a quarter-inch long, less than the width of a pencil. If the spittlebug were the same size as Javier, it would be able to jump 600 feet into the air. That is like a human jumping over a building 55 stories high!

    Though the humans lose the “jumping contest,” their competitors would probably agree that Mike and Javier are still pretty excellent athletes. If only Rosie and the spittlebug could speak!

    1.The underlined word “contestant” in Paragraph 5 means “_____”.

    A. coachB. teammateC. challengerD. record holder

    2.What can we learn about the spittlebug?

    A. It likes living on the ceiling.

    B. It is good at flying in the air.

    C. It is the same length as a pencil.

    D. It has a wonderful jumping talent.

    3.In the author’s opinion, Rosie and the spittlebug’s jumping abilities are ________.

    A. surprisingB. promisingC. doubtfulD. fearful

    4.How does the author develop the text?

    A. By giving instructions.

    B. By making comparisons.

    C. By following the order of time.

    D. By following the order of importance.
