3．阅读理解

When Daniel woke up yesterday morning, he found he was a bit late for school, so he started running to catch the bus. Moments later, he saw a dog, but not its lead. He tripped over the lead and fell down. He jumped up quickly, went on running and got on the bus. After a while an old coach broke down in the middle of the road, and the driver couldn't move it. It was eight o' clock, the middle of the rush hour, so it soon created a terrible traffic jam. The bus driver tried to go round the coach. Unfortunately a taxi was coming in the opposite direction. The driver tried to stop the taxi, but he couldn't prevent the accident-the taxi crashed into the front of the bus! Luckily nobody was hurt.

When Daniel finally got to school out of breath, the science lesson had been on for five minutes. Daniel said sorry to the teacher and sat at his desk. He reached out for his school bag-no，it was nowhere to be found.

4．阅读理解

More than 1,000 different kinds of pieces of plastic, including 115 cups, 25 bags, four bottles and two pairs of shoes, have been found inside a dead whale（鲸鱼） in Indonesia, according to local officials.

When the whale was found on the island, it was already decomposing when animal doctors arrived. So they were unable to be sure if the plastic caused its death, said Lukas, the leader of the World Wildlife Fund in Indonesia. The plastic weighed about 6 kilograms, or 13 pounds, he said.

But pictures of the dead whale caused a warm discussion. The people in the country have started to realize that it is because of using too much plastic. So has the government. Indonesia, a nation of about 260 million people was the world's second-biggest producer of plastic waste in 2018, behind only China.

If the whales eat too much plastic, they will have a wrong feeling. They think that they are full. And that will lead them to eat less food that provides all the good things they need, said Nicholas who is the leader of the Ocean Conservancy. Moreover, eating too much plastic can make them reduce their weight, their energy and slow down their swimming. As a result, whales are easier to be hurt by the sharks and many other dangerous animals in the sea.

More than 800 kinds of animals in the sea are affected by about 8.8 million tons of plastic which is thrown away freely in the ocean each year. Plastic can also stop the animals moving

freely and sometimes they will cause them to die because they have to be under the water for too long. Some plastic can make a small hole in their stomachs after they eat it.

（1）What does the underlined word "decomposing" in Paragraph 2 mean?

A. 腐烂.

B. 吸收.

C. 凝固.

D. 飘散.（2）Which country produced most plastic waste in 2018?

A. India.

B. China.

C. Indonesia.

D. America.

（3）What happens to the whales after eating too much plastic?

A. They will feel hungry.

B. They will die at once.

C. They will eat less healthy food.

D. They will attack sharks actively.

（4）According to the passage, what can we infer?

A. Pictures of the dead whale caught few people's attention.

B. People kill whales because they are dangerous animals.

C. Plastic can stop sea animals moving freely, even cause them to die.

D. Indonesia government will take action to stop the sea pollution.

【答案】（1）A

（2）B

（3）C

（4）D

【解析】【分析】这篇文章讲述在印度尼西亚发现了一头死去的鲸鱼胃里有很多塑料。由此引起了人们对过度使用塑料的反思。

（1）细节题。根据后文So they were unable to be sure if the plastic caused its death…可知这只鲸鱼在被发现时已经死了，可推知decomposing描述的是它死后的状态，结合选项，腐烂的意思符合语境，故选A。

（2）细节题。根据第三段Indonesia, a nation of about 260 million people was the world's second-biggest producer of plastic waste in 2018, behind only China.印度尼西亚是第二大产国，仅次于中国，可见中国产生的塑料垃圾最多，故选B。

（3）细节题。根据第四段And that will lead them to eat less food that provides all the good things they need…可只吃了太多塑料，“吃饱了”的错觉，会让鲸鱼不吃健康的食物，故选C。

（4）细节题。根据第三段The people in the country have started to realize that it is because of using too much plastic. So has the government.这个国家的人们已经开始意识到这是因为使用了太多的塑料。政府也意识到了，由此可推知政府将会采取措施阻止海洋污染。故选D。

On the first day of the New Year 2019, I made up my mind to go to Thailand to teach English as a volunteer. At the beginning, all I cared about was travelling and seeing the country. I didn't

know how fantastic my life would be in the coming months!

My journey began with attending TESOL certification course in my home state of New York last February. After 3 weekends of study and another 40 hours' study online, I received my TESOL certificate.

I was asked to contact Philip, who is Program Director of the Teach in Thailand. After discussing with Philip, I chose my school and after many months of excitement, I finally flew to Thailand in early April and I couldn't wait to explore the country!

After a few weeks of single travel, I met up with Philip and the other new teachers in my program in Bangkok. It was great to meet other people who were on the same journey as me, see some cool sights and walk in Thailand's cities! After that, I attended the week-long training. At the end of the training, I was sent to my school—Anuban Buriram Primary School.

I truly love my job—I teach Grades 5 and 6 and I have the cleverest and most active kids in the world. It's a truly fantastic thing that you can see the difference you make in someone else's life, right in front of you!

Buriram is a small city with green rice fields. People here are more friendly than anyone I've ever met—I've never been anywhere where a smile is so easily received, where everyone you pass is so friendly to say "Hello" and "Good morning". I've been taken out to countless dinners, and been lent a guitar, a camera, and I am given Thai treats and the most delicious fresh fruits many times a week. I only hope to repay them in the future.

I've been dancing since I was 14, when my best friend asked me to go to an after-school dance class with her. I enjoyed that dance class and from then on, I began to dance. After every class, I always have to stretch out（拉伸）my legs and back! It feels like as much exercise as a sport.

On the other hand, many people think that dancing is a sport. No matter what kind of dance

you do, you always use all of your muscles （肌肉）. So, dancers are often just as athletic as football players, runners or swimmers.

In my opinion, dancing is both a sport and an art form. It has brought me great fun and improved my health.

Anyway, whether you think of dancing to be a sport or an art form, the important thing is to enjoy it! Dancing is a really fun way to exercise!
