The flowers will start blossoming (开花)and the trees will be filled with colors. Its time of the year for people to plant trees. Planting trees is a good way to protect our environment. But most of us dont have a place to plant trees. So what can we do for protecting the environment? We can make a difference from the others. For example, we can think about a way to make people cut down fewer trees. As we know, paper is made from trees. If we use less paper, we can save a lot of trees. Then we may have a problem that how to use less paper. Let me tell you my ideas.Reducing Our Paper WasteEvery day we just use the paper and we dont think about where the paper comes from.Let us think about wasting a piece of paper is like wasting a tree. We can start with reducing the amount of paper products that we use. This could be done by such a simple way as using e-mail instead of writing notes.ReusingWe could reuse paper that is clean on one side for drafts, notes and even photocopies. As students, we could reuse paper by doing our research online or at libraries rather than buying lots of written paper. Sharing books or buying a used textbook for school is another way of reusing.RecycleWe should consider recycling notebook paper, newspapers, magazines and colored paper. We can buy paper towels, tissues, and toilet paper that have been made from recycled paper. Dont throw away the wasted newspapers or books which are not useful to you.（1）People can protect the environment by doing the following things except _.A . planting treesB . reusing paperC . drinking less waterD . cutting down less trees（2）We can reduce our paper waste by_.A . sending e-mailB . writing lettersC . sending cardsD . using paper bag（3）_isnt a way for you to reuse paper.A .

He sat there for several hours and watched the butterfly. Suddenly, a small opening appeared and the butterfly made its great effort(努力) to force its body through that little hole. Then it seemed to stop making any progress. It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could and it could go no further.（那个蛹好象忘记了它该怎样做, 也好象停止了挣扎）.So the man decided to help the butterfly. He cut off the remaining bit of the cocoon so that the butterfly would come out easily. But to his surprise, the butterfly got a heavy body and very small wings when it came out of the cocoon.The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that the body would grow smaller at any moment and the wings would become larger and be able to fly. But neither happened! In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling(爬) around with a heavy body and small wings. It was never able to fly.The man was in his kindness, but he didnt understand the nature rules. Before the butterfly came out of the cocoon, fluid(液体) from its body must be forced into its wings, and then would be ready for flying. It must have a hard struggle(拼搏) to get through the small opening to get its freedom from the cocoon.Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life. If God allowed us to go through our life without any difficulties, it would make us fail. We would not be as strong as we could have been, we could never fly.（1）What was the butterfly doing at the beginning of the story?A . It was trying to make a cocoon for it self.B . It was crawling around quietly on the ground.C . It was flying among the trees in the forest.D . It was struggling to get out of its cocoon.（2）The man cut off the remaining bit of the cocoon in order to _.A . take the butterfly homeB . help the butterfly come out easilyC . kill the butterflyD . stop the butterfly growing bigger（3）What do you think of the man?A . Patient but cruelB . Careful and wiseC . Kind but unwiseD . Brave and funny（4）What does the last paragraph (段落) tell us?A . Struggles are sometimes necessary in our life.B . Nothing is difficult if we put our heart into it.C . Every good deed will come back with good result.D . The greatest happiness in the world is to help others.（5）What is the best title of the story?A . The Love for the Cocoon.B . The Joy of Helping Each Other.C . The Lesson of the Cocoon.D . The Expectation (期待) for the Butterfly.14. （6分）阅读下面的短文，然后根据短文内容，在每小题所给的四个选项中选出最佳选项。(B)Are you carrying too much on your back at school? Im sure lots of children of your age will, say Yes. Not only the students in China have this problem, but children in the United States also have heavy school bags.Doctors are starting to worry that younger and younger students are having back and neck problems as a result of schools bags being too heavy for them.Its hard for me to go upstairs with my bag because its so heavy, said Rick Hammond, an 11-year-old student in the US.Rick is among students who have common school bags with two straps(带子) to carry them, but many other students choose rolling(有滚轮的)bags.But even with rolling bags, getting up stairs and buses is still a problem for children. Many of them have hurt their backs and necks because of the heavy school bags.But how much is too much? Doctors say students should carry no more than 10% to 15% of their own body weight(重量).Scott Bautch, a back doctor, said children under Grade 4 should stay with 10 % . But it is also important that older children dont stay with over 15 %, because their bodies are still growing. Children are losing their balance(平衡) and falling down with their school bags, he said.Parents and teachers are starting to tell children to only take home library books they will be reading that night. Some teachers are using pieces of paper or thin workbooks for students to take home.One of the best answers is, as some children said, to have no homework at all!（1）From the passage we can know that . A . only children in China carry too heavy school bagsB . children in other countries dont carry too heavy bagsC . both children in China and the US carry too heavy school bagsD . only children in the US carry too heavy school bags（2）Children feel it hard for them to go upstairs because _.A . they are too youngB . their school bags are too heavyC . they dont know how to go upstairsD . their parents dont always go upstairs with them together（3）According to the doctor, Scott Bautch, if a child in Grade 5 weighs(重)about 30 kilos, the school bag he carries should not be over A . 5 kilosB . 3 kilosC . 5. 5 kilosD . 4.5 kilos15. （10分）（2017河北）阅读理解CHere is a story: A man sees a butterfly(蝴蝶). The butterfly tries to get out of its chrysalis(蛹). Feeling sorry for it, the man decides to help. He cuts the chrysalis and the butterfly comes out easily. Surprisingly enough, the butterfly is unable to fly. If the butterfly doesnt struggle(挣扎；奋斗) to leave the chrysalis, it cant fly! The struggle develops the energy in the butterfly which makes it fly. Similarly, the challenges of life bring out the best in young people and make the fly.When people are young, meeting and overcoming challenges will make them strong and ready to face life. When we look at successful people, we see that the most successful of them are people who have had to struggle. One famous businessman, who now owns many big supermarkets, used to carry clothes on his back and sell them from door to door when he was young. Another successful man is Dennis. His father died when he was only twenty. His fathers death forced him to mature fast. He had to bring up a family of nine people. He took up the challenges and overcame them. Today his brothers and sisters are leading successful lives.Sometimes challenges do not appear to us because we keep away from them. So some parents and teachers actively encourage young people to face challenges. They might organize some activities for young people which provide them with challenges, like rock-climbing, camping, volunteer work and so on. However, just passing exams will not prepare a person for life. We must meet and overcome challenges. The young people of today will become the leaders of tomorrow. For countries to continue to become successful, it is important that the young people learn to meet challenges and overcome them.（1）From the story we know that the butterfly cant fly because _.A . it gets out by itselfB . the man feels sorry for itC . it tries to challenge itselfD . the man helps it come out（2）Denniss example shows that successful people should _.A . overcome the difficultiesB . take up business earlyC . become the leaders of tomorrowD . sell clothes from door to door（3）The meaning of the underlined word mature in the passage is _.A . wake upB . give upC . grow upD . bring up（4）What is the writer trying to do in this passage?A . Describe where a butterfly comes from.B . Encourage young people to face challenges.C . Suggest how to become a successful businessman.D . Explain what will happen if a person fails the exam（5）What is the best title for this passage?A . Successful People Have a Sense of AchievementB . Young People Must Develop Their Energy ActivelyC . Countries Should Continue to Become SuccessfulD . Challenges of Life Bring Out the Best in Young People16. （5分）配对阅读 根据左栏的介绍，请你在右栏为他们找到相关联的选项。并将答题卡上对应题目所选的选项涂黑。_Ferry wants to know something about lions, bears, kangaroos and birds._Susan wants to be a pianist.

It is quite true for students to enjoy a rest after a long and difficult year. But more and more parents fear their kids forgetting a lot of knowledge, so they send their children to summer schools. Because summer schools can help children go over the knowledge that they have learnt during the school year.In summer schools, students probably study in a more relaxing situation and can come up with interesting topics for discussion with their teachers. Usually, the number of students attending summer schools is smaller, so this gives them a good chance to connect with other students and teachers better. If a student has failed a course, summer schools may help him or her. Moreover, they are building their creativity （创造力）and imagination（想象力）as well as learning social skills.On the other hand, summer schools bring children problems at the same time. It takes children the whole summer vacation to learn without playing. That is too long. As a result, it may make them less interested in school during the coming year.For many students, taking summer classes can be a tiring experience. Teachers teach the subjects too quickly, which only harms the whole education of students. Summer schools are usually expensive. They usually offer only a few subject. So many students have to take classes that they dont like.A summer school can be a good chance for students who n
