阅读理解。     Thirty years ago, Lake Ponkapog in Hartwell, New Jersey, was full of life. Many birds and animals
lived beside the water, which was full of fish. Now there are few birds, animals, and fish. The lake water
is polluted. It is in a colour of dirty brown, and it is filled with strange plants.
     How did this happen? First, we must think about how water gets into Lake Ponkapog. When it rains,
water comes into the lake from all around. In the past, there were forests all round Lake Ponkapog, so the
rainwater was clean.
     Now there are many homes around the lake. People often use the chemicals (化学制品) in their gardens.
They use other chemicals inside their houses for cleaning and killing insects. There are also many businesses.
Businesses use chemicals in their machines of shops. Other chemicals fall onto the ground from cars or
trucks. When it rains, the rainwater picks up all the chemicals from home and businesses and then carries
them into the lake. They pollute the water and kill the animals.
     Boats on the lake are also a problem. Lake Ponkapog is a popular place for motorboats (汽船). But oil and
gas (汽油) from boats often get into the lake. So more bad chemicals go into the water this way.
     People in Hartwell are worried. They love their lake and want to save it. Will it be possible? A clean lake
must have clean rainwater going into it. Clean rainwater is possible only if people are more careful about
chemicals at home and at work. They must also be more careful about gas and oil and other chemicals on
the ground. And they mustn"t use motorboats any more on the lake. All these may change people"s lives. Only
then can Lake Ponkapog be a beautiful, clean lake again. 1. In the past, the water in Lake Ponkapog was made clean by ______. [     ]
A. forests
B. rain
C. birds
D. fish 2. Chemicals from homes and businesses ______. [     ]
A. are always clean
B. can help the animals
C. are good for the lake
D. get into the rainwater 3. Cleaner rainwater will mean ______. [     ]
A. more boats on the lake
B. more dirty things in the lake
C. a cleaner lake
D. a dirty lake 4. To save Lake Ponkapog, people need to ______. [     ]
A. be more careful about chemicals
B. use the water
C. grow fewer plants in the gardens
D. use more motorboats on the lake 5. The passage is about ______. [     ]
A. boats on the Lake Pankapog
B. why the water is dirty in Lake Ponkapog
C. clean rainwater
D. dirty lakes

laugh hard, tears will also come down from your eyes. But tears have a more important job than showing
your feelings.

阅读理解。    If you spend two or three hours playing outdoors each day, it"s less likely (可能的) to get short-sighted,
a research shows. It challenges the old belief that short-sightedness is caused by computer use, watching
TV or reading in weak light. 
    The Australian scientists believe that sunlight is good for people"s eyes. They did a research among 100
seven-year-old children in Singapore and Australia. According to the result, about 30% of the Singaporean
children were short-sighted while there were only 3% Australian children get short-sighted. 
    Both groups spent almost the same time reading, watching television and playing computer games.
However, the Australian children spent an average (平均) of two hours a day outdoors-90 minutes more
than the Singaporean children.
    Professor (教授) Ian Morgan said. ""Humans are naturally long-sighted, but when people begin to go to
school and spend little or no time outdoors, the number of short-sighted people gets larger. There"re also
more and more short-sighted children in cities all around the world-and the main reason may be that city
children spend less time outdoors." 
    Daylight can be much brighter than indoor light. But why does playing outside stop us from becoming
short-sighted? Scientists believe that natural light has a special chemical (化学物质) which is good for our
eyeballs and stops people becoming short-sighted.
    So go outdoors, It doesn"t matter if that time is spent having a picnic or playing sports. 1. Who did the research? [     ]
A. Singaporean scientists.
B. Singaporean children.
C. Australian scientists.
D. Australian children. 2. Many people believe            caused short-sightedness in the past. [     ]
A. computer use
B. watching TV
C. reading in weak light
D. All above 3. How much time did the Singaporean children spend outdoors on average every day in the research? [     ]
A. 2 hours.
B. 90 minutes.
C. 1 hour.
D. 30 minutes. 4. What is the main idea of the fifth paragraph (段)? [     ]
A. Why people become short-sighted.
B. Why natural light has a special chemical.
C. Why playing outside can stop people from becoming short-sighted.
D. Why daylight is much brighter than indoor light. 5. Which of the following is true according to the passage? [     ]
A. People will all become short-sighted after they begin to go to school.
B. Playing outdoors for 2 or 3 hours every day help protect (保护) your eyesight.
C. Children in Australia are more likely to get short-sighted than those in Singapore.
D. If you spend 2 or 3 hours playing outside every day, you will never get short-sighted.
