• 1．The Fennec fox is also known as the desert fox since it survives in the Sahara Desert（撒哈拉沙漠）.It is the smallest of the species of foxes，and quite a few people wish to raise it as a pet because of its appearance.However，this is very rare，as it needs special care and attention.Let's take a look at the basic information on the Fennec fox，including its physical appearance，natural habitat and diet.
     Physical Appearance
     The Fennec fox is the smallest type of fox，with a body length of about 9.5—16 inches，and 6-inch-long ears.It weighs only around one kilogram.It has a cream-colored furry body with a black-tipped tail.
     Their ears are the largest among all foxes relative to the body size，which not only provide them with great hearing，but also radiate the extreme desert heat and thus help to keep the body cool.Moreover，in order to walk on the hot sand，a Fennec fox's feet are covered with thick fur.Besides that，the feet also help in digging，as this animal lives under the ground.
     Habitat and Lifestyle
     The habitat of this animal is mainly in the Sahara Desert，and also in other parts of North Africa.The Fennec fox is usually active during the night.This character helps it deal successfully with the extreme heat in the desert.
     As an extremely social animal，it often lives in groups of ten and each group has its own land.This animal is，however，aggressive too，ready to attack，especially in the mating（交配） season，when they all compete with each other for a mate.
     Diet
     The Fennec fox is an omnivore（雜食動(dòng)物）.While it can survive on plants，it also needs other items such as insects，rabbits，birds and eggs.Getting used to living in the desert allows it to survive for long periods without any water.They take in water when eating food，and they will drink water if available.
  
  （1）The reason why quite a few people wish to raise the Fennec fox is that it

  .
  A．has small body size
  B．has great hearing
  C．gets active at night
  D．has special appearance
  （2）The underlined word "radiate"（paragraph 3）is closest in meaning to "

  ".
  A．release
  B．measure
  C．survive
  D．seek
  （3）What can we infer about the Fennec fox？

  
  A．It's the smallest animal in the desert.
  B．It's not easy to raise it as a pet.
  C．It can survive without any water.
  D．It seldom attacks others.

• 2．There are many gardening tips．Some suggest playing music for your houseplants，having conversations with them，or even giving them a gentle touch now and then．Most of these practices are probably more for the benefit of the gardener than the garden，and generally harmless enough but except the last one．Your plants really dislike it when you touch them．
     A new study out of the La Trobe Institute for Agriculture and Food has found that most plants are extremely sensitive to touch，and even a light touch can significantly stunt（阻礙） their growth． "The lightest touch from a human，animal，insect，or even plants touching each other in the wind，can cause a huge gene response in the plant，" Jim Whelan，who led the new study，said． "Within 30 minutes of being touched，10% of the plant's genome（基因組） is changed．This involves a huge expenditure（消耗）of energy which is taken away from plant growth．If the touching is repeated，then plant growth is reduced by up to 30%．"
     Whelan and his team are still trying to find out why plants respond，at the genetic level，so strongly．They do have some theories，however．We know that when an insect lands on a plant，genes are activated（激活） preparing the plant to defend itself against being eaten，" said Dr．Yan Wang，co-author of the study．
     Until more research is done，it's just a guess at this point．Still，the findings might already lead to new methods for how agriculturalists deal with their crops，to best promote healthier growth．
     It's worth noticing that while the study found that plants often respond to just a single touch in negative ways，it's really repeated touching that causes lasting stunted growth．That's because the plants are looking for patterns in the touching，to tell harmful touch from random touch．So it doesn't matter if you accidently brush up against a bush during a walk through the woods．
  
  （1）How is the passage mainly developed？

  
  A．By comparing
  B．By giving examples
  C．By listing numbers
  D．By showing results of studies
  （2）Why can touching stunt a plant growing according to the study？

  
  A．It leads to the plant's energy expenditure．
  B．It makes the plant sensitive to threats．
  C．It causes a genetic disorder in the plant．
  D．It prevents the plant absorbing nutrients．
  （3）What's the importance of the study by Whelan and his team？

  
  A．It gives us more useful gardening tips．
  B．It helps find ways to ensure plants' healthy growth．
  C．It contributes to the further study on genes．
  D．It uses data to warn people not to touch plants．
  （4）What is the passage mainly about？

  
  A．Something is done to help plants grow．
  B．Plants' genome can be changed easily．
  C．Plants don't really like to be touched．
  D．What we do every day may destroy plants．

• 3．My school appeared on the news last week because we had made an important change in our local area.Our class had planted a large garden in what was once only a vacant lot.It was a lot of work but it was all worth it.I got blisters（水泡） from digging，and we all got insect bites，too.
     I learned a lot about gardening and collaboration（合作），and then I learned about the media.Our teacher telephoned the TV station and informed them of what we had accomplished.She spoke with the producer.The producer checked with the directors，but they said there were plenty of stories similar to ours.They wanted to know what was special about our particular garden，since many schools plant them.
     The teacher explained that，after going on the Internet to learn about the prairie（大草原），we had made a prairie garden.We had gone to a prairie and gotten seeds from the plants，and then we planted them.We did not water the garden，but we did weed it.We decided to let nature water it with rain，since that was how prairies grew in the past.We sent a picture of the garden to the news station.In the picture，the grass was so high that it stood taller than the fourth grade students.
     As a result，the producer sent a reporter to our school.He interviewed the headmaster and asked him many questions about the garden.After that，they interviewed us，and we explained to them what we had learned through this project.
     That night，we watched the news，and there we were.The news reporter told our story.It was only two minutes long，but it was us.We were famous.All that work，all those blisters，it was worth it.We knew that when we saw the garden every day，but now we knew that the whole city thought so，too.
  
  （1）What seemed to be the TV directors' initial（最初的） reaction to the garden？

  
  A．They were excited.

• 4．Your teenage best friend could be good for your long-term mental health，according to a new study published in the journal Child Development.According to the findings，teenagers aged 15 to 16 who had a close friendship rather than a larger group of friends they were less close to had a greater sense of self-worth by the time they were 25 years old.Those people with a very close best friend were also less likely to experience social anxiety，the study found.
     A past research has suggested that teen friendships are important.Friendships during the teenage years predict academic success and improved mental health.But the new research further explores the type of friendships teenagers have.
     Many study participants did not continue to have a close relationship with their high-school best friend，leading the researchers to wonder what exactly was responsible for the mental health benefits.They thought that the skills and ability to build such a friendship may be more important than the friendship itself.
     And as the researchers point out，those skills are not necessarily brought to bear in the world of social media. "As technology makes it increasingly easy to build a social network of shallow friends，focusing time and attention on developing close connections with a few individuals should be a priority，" one of the researchers，Joseph Allen，said in a statement.
  
  （1）What is the benefit of having a close teenage friendship？

  
  A．Good performance in high school.
  B．Mental health by early adulthood.
  C．A large social network in the future.
  D．A greater sense of self-worth all the time.
  （2）What can we learn about the past research？

  
  A．It attached importance to teen friendships.
  B．It explored the types of teenage friendships.
  C．It helped improve teenagers' mental health.
  D．It was totally different from the new research.
  （3）What did the researchers think might lead to the mental health benefits？

  
  A．Having many best friends in high school.
  B．Knowing how to build a close friendship.
  C．Understanding the world of social media.
  D．Studying hard and getting good grades at school.
  （4）What did the researcher Joseph Allen suggest？

  
  A．Widening your social circle.
  B．Learning to use social media.
  C．Concentrating on high-quality friendship.
  D．Improving the basic skills of making friends.

• 5．How to Exercise Exercise is a key part of staying healthy，but figuring out how to get more active can be tough.（1）

  Always listen to your body's limits，and ask your doctor for advice in case of any medical issues.Importantly，create an exercise routine.
     （2）

  When you warm up，target the muscles you plan on exercising，but use less intense movements.For instance，walk for 5 to 10 minutes before jogging or doing a lower body workout.
     Try to get 30 minutes of aerobic exercise per day.As a rule of thumb，you should get at least 30 minutes of moderately intense aerobic exercise daily.Examples include going for brisk walks and a jog，running，cycling and swimming.
     Include strength training at least 2 days per week.Strength training involves using free weights，resistance bands，or your own body weight to strengthen your muscles.For starters，try doing upper and lower body workouts 1 day a week. （3）

  
     Mix up your routine to keep things interesting.（4）

  That can motivate you to stay on track.Additionally，switching your workouts will exercise your entire body and help prevent injury.
     Walk for 5 to 10 minutes and stretch to cool down.（5）
