The plants and animals have enough food and clean water to keep them healthy. The wind carries pure air, and the rain comes down clear and clean. But recently, Lucy Lake and her friends have been seriously ill. All the plants and animals get together to talk about the problem. “Why are we sick?” “What can we do?” ask all of them. No one has any answers. Just then two hikers(背包客) appear. The animals tell them about their problems. “Can you help us?” they ask. “Yes,” one hiker says. “I think its because of acid rain which comes from chemicals(化学物质) in the air. The pollution comes from factories, cars and trucks.” “So, although I dont want to, I help the pollution travel through the air!” says the wind. “And I carry it to the land!” cries the rain.(黑体)“If you can help us think of some ways to solve the problem, we will send a message to tell people how to clean up our environment,” one hiker says.With the help of the plants and animals, the two hikers make a list of ideas for saving Lucy Lake and her friends.Time passes, and the forest and lake begin to feel a little better. The next time the hikers climb up the mountains to Lucy Lake, they smile at what they find. “Were glad things have started to change,” one hiker says. “And were glad you helped us make a difference,” says the other. （去掉横线）41.

And how do you take notes in class, with a pen or on a keyboard? We all know that typing is fast and writing is slow. We type to save time .And in the classroom, we can write more notes on a computer or laptop. But the slow process of writing is actually good to help us learn, according to a new study. Two psychologists(心理学家) of two world-famous universities found out that laptops are terrible for taking notes in class. So what was their main discovery? It turns out that handwriting is better because it slows the learner down. By slowing down the process of taking notes, learning becomes faster. It works like this：in the classroom，a typist is able to write down almost every word that the teacher said. But this process doesnt need any critical thinking(批判思考能力). If you are taking notes by hand, you wont be able to write down every word the speaker says. You must think of summaries and ask questions about what you dont understand. At this time, you are sending a signal to your brain that it is worth(值得) remembering. Many scientists have found that handwriting is good for the brain areas connected with memory formation(形成). That may explain why some kids come up with more ideas when they are writing compared to typing.Do you agree with the new research? If so , will it change the way you studying in the future?45.What does the new study find out?A. Its better to message a friend by typing. B. Taking notes on a keyboard saves time.C. Writing notes can help students learn better. D. Laptop are no better than computer.46.While students are writing on the computer_.A.they cant write down every word. B.They can understand what they have put down.C.They cant do any critical thinking. D. They have more time to think and summarize.47. Some kids often have more ideas when writing because_A. their brains are different from those who type. B. Writing helps them remember things quickly. C. They like asking question more than others. D. They are usually smarter than others.CIn Europe many people died during the Second World War. As a result, at the end of the war there were many orphans（孤儿）there. A man called Hermann Gmeiner wanted to help these children. His idea was simple. He wanted orphans to have a home, and he wanted them to have the care and kindness of parents. Gmeiner asked people to give him some money. With this money he built the first SOS Childrens Village at Imst, in Austria. It opened in1949. This is how the SOS stand for “Save Our Souls（灵魂）.” This means, “Please help us!” An SOS Childrens village gives help to orphans. Hermann Gmeiners idea for helping orphans soon spread all over the world. By 1983 there were 170 SOS Childrens Villages in the world. People in many countries give money to help the villages. Today the children from the first village have grown up. Now some of them work in other SOS Childrens Villages. In SOS Villages orphans live in family groups. There are several houses in each village. The biggest village has 40 or 50 houses! Between seven and ten children live in a house. A woman lives with each group of children and looks after them. She gives the children a lot of love and kindness. She cooks meals for them and makes comfortable, happy home for them. Of course, the children dont spend all their time in the village.
