The world itself is becoming much smaller by using modern traffic and modern communication means (通信設(shè)備). Life today is much easier than it was hundreds of years ago, but it has brought new problems. One of the biggest problems is pollution. To pollute means to make things dirty. Pollution comes in many ways. We see it, smell it, drink it and even hear it.
Man has been polluting the earth. The more people, the more pollution. Many years ago, the problem was not so serious because there were not so many people. When the land was used up or the river was dirty in one place, man moved to another place. But this is not longer true. Man is now slowly polluting the whole world.
Air pollution is still the most serious. It's bad for all living things in the world, but it is not the only one kind of pollution. Water pollution kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us angry more easily.
Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. They stop people from burning coal in houses and factories in the city, and from putting dirty smoke into the air. Pollution by SO2 is now the most dangerous kind of air pollution. It is caused (引起) by heavy traffic. We are sure that if there are fewer people driving, there will be less air pollution.
The earth is our home. We must take care of it. That means keeping the land, water and air clean. And we must take care of the rise in pollution at the same time.
1.________, our world is becoming much smaller.
[ ]
A.Because of the rise in pollution
B.Thanks to science development
C.Because the earth is being polluted day and night
D.Because the earth is blown away by the wind every year

If you go into the forest with friends, stay with them. If you don't, you may get lost. If you get lost, this is what you should do. Sit down and stay where you are. Don't try to find your friends-let them find you. You can help them find out you by staying in one place. There is another way to keep your friends or other people to find you. You can shout or whistle (吹口哨) three times. Stop. Then shout or whistle three times again. Any signal (信號(hào)) given three times is a call for help.
Keep up shouting or whistling. Always three times together. When people hear you, they will know that you are not just making a noise for fun. They will let you know that they have heard your signal. They will give you two shouts or two whistles. When a signal is given twice, it is an answer to a call for help.
If you don't think that you will get help before night comes, try to make a little house with branches (樹枝). Make yourself a bed with leaves and grass.
When you need some water, you have to leave your little branch house to look for it. Don't just walk away. Pick off small branches and drop them as you walk in order to go back again easily. When you are lost, the most important thing to do is to stay in one place.

Last Sunday the elephant keeper at London Zoo, Jim Robson, was killed by one of the elephants he loved. This was terrible, and it could be a big problem for the future of London Zoo-and maybe for all of Britain's city zoos.
London Zoo said that it would move its three elephants to a wild animal park outside London. Its director-general (總經(jīng)理), Michael Dixon, said, “We are sorry that the elephants are leaving; there have been elephants at London Zoo since 1931.”
One British newspaper said that though many small animals were very interesting, most people wanted to see big animals-and most of all elephants.
London Zoo is not only losing its elephants. The tigers will also leave soon and most of the bears have already gone. Outside the elephant house at London Zoo, a woman called Mary said she hoped the zoo could keep big animals. “This is the only way the young people can see animals without traveling to other countries,” she said.
Zoos are not very good places for animals, but they can help to keep them well. Children can also learn a lot about the animals when they visit zoos.
Another visitor, a man called Alan, was very angry. “If we send them back to the wild they will die. If you take away big animals, people will stop visiting London Zoo. It can survive (繼續(xù)生存) at the moment, but it won't survive in the future.”
However, Mary Rosevear, director of the Federation (聯(lián)合會(huì)) of zoos, believes that city zoos can survive without keeping large animals.
1.London Zoo has kept elephants ________.
[ ]
A.since last Sunday
B.for more than one hundred years
C.for less than one hundred years
D.ever since it was built
2.Zoos are important because ________.
[ ]
A.they can make a lot of money
B.there are many animals living in them
C.there are some big animals there
D.they can keep some big animals and help children learn about them
3.The underlined word “It” in the passage refers to (指) ________.
[ ]
4.London Zoo might face a big problem because ________.
[ ]
A.the elephant in the zoo will be killed
B.the elephant may also kill other people
C.it may have fewer visitors in the future
D.no one would like to be an elephant keeper any more
5.Which of the following is NOT true?
[ ]
A.The writer hopes that big animals except elephants should be kept in London Zoo.
B.London Zoo and the public have different ideas about where to keep the big animals.
C.Some animals in the park are still dangerous to visitors.
D.Some people think that the big animals will die if they are sent to the wild animal park.

Have you ever taken part in a marathon? A marathon is 42km long. It is the longest race in the world. To make the runner's body work harder, training is quite necessary. A runner should start to prepare for a marathon at least three months before. Preparation includes races many hours of running at different speeds, and changes in diet.

Two weeks before the marathon, the training program is reduced, from 100km per week down to 60 and then to 30km in the final week. On the last two days they may not run at all.
Breakfast should be eaten at least three hours before the race. Easily digested food such as cereal, toast and scrambled egg is best, with as much fluid as possible. Runners should drink water about half an hour before the race to keep up the body fluid levels.
