the natural zoo has given people the chance to adopt animal by paying for all of its food for one year. one of the animals that needed parents was a young tiger named brocky. the people at the zoo said that it would cost about $900 a year for the food for brocky.not many boys and girls have $900 to spend. that is why several hundred children and grown-ups each have sent a little money to the zoo to help pay for brockys food. some children sent in only a quarter because that was all the money they had. other children sent in more money than that.since so many people sent money to the zoo to help pay for brockys food, he now will be able to eat as much as he wants. brocky surely must be a happy tiger to know that he has so many adopted parents. many children must also be happy to know that they have helped to feed him. it really will be thrilling for those children to go to the natural zoo to visit their adopted tiger brocky.51. several hundred people give money to the zoo to help brocky because _.a. its food is too expensive for one person to affordb. people dont want to spend too much money on brockyc. people dont love brocky enoughd. the zoo forces them to do so52. children

nature reserve is in them. more than 700 milu deer live freely there. there are not many red-crowned cranes in the world, but every winter you can see some in the red-crowned crane nature reserve in the yellow sea wetlands.the temperature in the wetlands is usually neither too high nor too low. there us a lot of rain and sunshine , too. they are really good places for wildlife. offering(提供) food and home for some special kinds of animals is not the only reason why we need to protect wetlands. wetlands are important because they also prevent flood. but some people want to change the wetlands to make more space for farms and less space for wildlife.luckily , more and more people are beginning to realize the importance of wetlands and wildlife . every year , on february 2nd , many activities are held to tell people more about wetlands.55. usually the weather in the wetlands is _ a. hot b. pleasant c. cold d. dry 56. the world wetlands day is on _a. april 22 b. june 25 c.

him, and he became so nervous and worried that one night he left his home without telling his parents. another student, a 14-year-old schoolgirl from shanghai, was very afraid of exams. while she was reading the exam paper, she couldnt think of anything to write.a recent report from a newspaper says about 18% of the young students in shanghai have mental problems. they often feel worried and very unhappy. unluckily many of them wont go and ask for help. some think they will look stupid if they go to see a doctor. others wont talk about their secrets.at the end of the meeting, mr. ma gave some good ideas to young people:u talk to your parents or teacher often.u join in group activities.u try to get on well with the people around you.u go to see a doctor if you often feel unhappy.59. the
