deserts, so people can live and grow food. They are learning a lot about the deserts.  But more and more

Scientists think that people make deserts. People are doing bad things to the earth.

some green plants are growing there. Small green plants and grass are very helpful to dry places. Plants
don"t let the hot sun make the earth even drier. Plants don"t let the wind blow the earth away. When a little
rain falls, the plants hold the water. Without plants, the land can become a desert much more easily.1. What may cause the land become a desert, according to(根据) the writer?A. Some places don"t get very much rain.

阅读理解。     Waste can be seen everywhere in the school. Some students ask for more food than they
can eat and others often forget to turn off the lights when they leave the classroom.
     They say they can afford these things. But I don"t agree with them. Waste can bring a lot of
problems. Although China is rich in some resources(资源) , we are short of (缺乏) others, for
example, fresh water. It is reported that we will have no coal(煤) or oil to use in 100 years.
So if we go on wasting our resources, what can we use in the future and where can we move?
Think about it. I think we should say no to the students who waste things every day. Everybody
should stop wasting as soon as possible.
     In our everyday life, we can do many things to prevent waste from happening, for example,
turn off the water taps(水龙头) when we finish washing, turn off the lights when we leave the
classroom, try not to order more food than we need, and so on. Little by little, everything
will be changed. Waste can be stopped one day, if we do our best.      1. From the passage we know that some students often _____ in the school.  A. eat too much    
B. don"t work hard
C. waste things    
D. throw rubbish everywhere2. Which is not mentioned in this passage?   A. Fresh water.  
B. Forest.
C. Oil.        
D. Coal. 3. Which of the following is right? A. Waste brings problems.  
B. Waste can bring no problem.   
C. China is rich in fresh water.  
D. Students never waste things.4. Which is the best title of this passage?A. Stop Wasting  
B. School life  
C. Waste in the School  
D. Rich Resources in China

阅读理解       Since the earliest times, trees have always been very useful and important to human beings who made use of them in many ways. Even today trees continue to serve us m so many ways.    
       Trees provide man with fruits and building materials in the form of wood. Without trees itwould be
impossible to build houses, boats and even bridges. Furniture such as tables, chairs andbeds is made of
wood.    
       In the tropics (热带地区) where it is very hot all through the year, trees protect man fromthe terrible
heat.  They are also useful in preventing good and rich top soil from being washed away during heavy rains which are so common in the tropics.      
       If there were no tree or vegetation of some kinds to hold back the soil with their roots, heavy rains
would wash away the rich soil that is so important and necessary to agriculture(农业). The result is that
the land becomes a desert.    
       There are so many desert areas in the world. A long time ago these desert areas must havebeen very
rich fertile(肥的) areas, but since our ancestors in the distant past do not have enough knowledge about
science of nature, they cut down all the trees in the areas where they lived and never planted new ones.  
By and by, the rich soil was blown and washed away by strong winds and heavy rains. In the end the land was turned into deserts where nothing could grow.1. According to the passage                .                A. ancient men didn"t know how to make use of trees                
B. trees are not as useful now as they used to be                
C. trees were more useful in the past than they are now                
D. human beings have always found trees very useful2. The underlined phrase "top soil" means                 .    A. useless soil which is of no use for agriculture          
B. soil on the surface of the earth which is good for agriculture          
C. soil found under the earth which is under roots of trees          
D. dry soil in desert areas which is bad for agriculture3. According to the passage, some desert areas were once          A. lands with good soil              
B. covered by ice and snow          
C. very cold                      
D. very dry and useless4. If there were no trees,                    .             A. the land would become more fertile            
B. heavy rains would clean the tropics            
C. the rich top soil couldn"t be held back            
D. there would be no agriculture at all5. From the passage, we know that                   .            A. man can do nothing to keep the balance of nature            
B. man may take no notice of the balance of nature            
C. man must do his best to keep the balance of nature            
D. the balance of nature is unimportant to man

阅读理解       Hundreds of years ago, life was much harder than it is today. There was no modern medicine. 
       Life today has brought new problems. One of the biggest is pollution. Water pollution has made our
rivers and lakes dirty. It kills fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us talk louder and become angry more easily. Air pollution is the most serious kind of pollution: It"s bad to all living things in
the world.
       Cars, planes and factories all pollute our air every day. Sometimes the polluted air is so thick that it is
like a quilt over a city. This kind of quilt is called smog(烟雾).
       Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. Factories must now clean their water before it is
poured into rivers; they mustn"t blow dirty smoke into the air.
       We need to do many other things. We can put waste things in the dustbin instead of throwing it on the ground. We can go to work by bus or with our friends in the same car. If there are fewer people driving,
there will be less pollution. Rules are not enough. Every person must help to fight pollution. 1. Hundreds of years ago, life was much harder than it is today because____.     A. there were not any modern machines
