the rainforests are very important for us. we need them!the trees and other plants in the forest help to make the airthat we breathe. they give us wood, rubber, fruits and manyof our medicines.unfortunately, in many places, the rainforests are in danger. for example. many years ago there was a large rainforest in java. there were thousands of different plants and animals in the forest, but now there is nothing. people chopped down the trees because they wanted to grow rice. many animals lived in the rainforest. some of them went to other parts of java but many of them disappeared - forever. the same thing is happening now in many other parts of the world. the rainforests are in danger.33. in which of the following places can we find rainforests according to paragraph l?a. in the uk. b. in asia. c. in the usa. d. in france.34. which of the following belongs to a kind of reptile?a. a sparrow. b. a swallow. c. a snake. d. a butterfly.35. which might be the best title for paragraph 4?a. whats happening to the rainforests?b. what can we find in the rainforests in java?c. why did people chop down the trees in the rainforests?d. why did many plants and animals disappear in the rainforests?36. what is the writers purpose of writing the article?a. to tell us how to survive in the rainforests,b. to help us know some living things in the rainforests.c. to tell us to care about the protection of the rainforests.d. to give us advice on how to make full use of the rainforests.d parents often believe that they have a good relationship with their teenagers. but last summer, 70anna and henry noticed a change in their older son: suddenly he seemed to be talking far more to his friends than to his parents. the door to his room is always shut. joanna noted.tina and mark noticed similar changes in their 14-year-old daughter. she used to sit in my arms on the sofa and talk with me, said mark. now we joke that she does this only when she wants something. sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady. the problem is figuring out which time is which.before age 11, children like to tell their parents whats on their minds. in fact, parents are first on the list. said michael riera, author of uncommon sense for parents with teenagers. this completely changes during the teen years. riera explained. they talk to their friends first, then maybe their teachers, and their parents last.parents who know whats going on in their teenagers lives are in the best position to help them. to break down the wall of silence, parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say, and try to find ways to talk and write to them. and they must give their children a mental break, for children also need freedom, though young. another thing parents should remember is that to be a friend, not a manager, with their children is a better way to know them.37. the door to his room is always shut suggests that the son_.a. is always busy with his studiesb. doesnt want to be disturbedc. keeps himself away from his parentsd. begins to dislike his parents38. what troubles tina and mark most is that_.a. their daughter isnt as lovely as beforeb. they cant read their daughters mind exactlyc. they dont know what to say to their daughterd. their daughter talks with them only-when she needs help 39. which of the following best explains the wall of silence in the last paragraph?a. teenagers talk a lot with their friends.b. teenagers do not want to understand their parents.c. teenagers do not talk much with their parents.d. teenagers talk little about their own lives. 40. what can be learned from the passage?a. parents are unhappy with their growing children.b. parents have suitable ways to talk with their teenagers.c. parents should be patient with their silent teenagers.d. parents should try to understand their teenagers.第卷（三大题，共45分）三、单词拼写（共10小题；每小题1分；满分10分） 根据下列
