Living places
The home of the elephant is in the deep forest. It is the largest of all land animals, and is found both in Asia and Africa. One of the main places in Asia where the elephant lives is the island of Ceylon. The huge forests on the island become the home of thousands of elephants. The trees grow thick and tall. They make many parts almost dark, while bright sunlight is above and around them.
Living habits
The elephant likes the deep part and the coolest places of the forest. There he will stand swinging his ears, to drive away the flies; or he will pull down a branch (樹枝) from a tree to fan himself. He likes bathing near a lake or running water. There he takes in the water with his trunk, and spreads it all over his body.
Food
The elephant enjoys the fruits in the forest, and also the leaves of the trees. There is plenty of food for him in the forests, though he is not always happy with what he finds there.
Way of movement
When a group of elephants moves about in the forest, the oldest goes first. The young elephants and their mothers are in the middle, where they are safest. Then all move along with a great noise, the branches of the trees bending and breaking before them. Though the elephant is usually harmless, no one dares to attack (襲擊) a group of them moving through the forest.
How people treat them
In Asia the elephant is trained to work. At one time the African elephant also was trained. Soldiers in ancient times often went to fight on the backs of African elephants. But now the elephant that lives in Africa is illegally (非法地) hunted mainly for its valuable ivory. In order to protect them, governments around the world have developed laws to stop this.
41. The Africa is found both in Asia and America.
A. Right. B. Wrong.
42. Elephants like bathing and running.
A. Right. B. Wrong.
43. Elephants are not always happy with the food they find in the forest.
A. Right. B. Wrong.

Tea and coffee are two of the most popular drinks in the world. However, people usually like one more than the other. These drinks also have very different uses.
Tea drinking started in China over 4, 000 years ago. Tea is made from leaves. These days, some people drink tea for health, using it to help with stress (壓力) or losing weight. However, most people in tea - drinking counties think of tea as more than just a healthy drink. In fact, tea drinking in some counties is a part of the culture. In Turkey (土耳其), tea is always there when people meet. Whether in someone's home or a company, tea is always offered as a way of welcoming. In the UK, homes and offices usually have tea time. Tea and other dishes are served at tea time in the afternoon. It is a way of relaxing with friends or co-workers (同事).
Coffee came much later than tea, just over 1, 000 years ago. Coffee is made from beans. Something in the coffee beans makes a person feel active. Most people do not drink coffee to relax. Instead, they drink coffee to get going. Many people drink coffee in the morning to help them wake up. Others will also drink coffee during short breaks in the afternoon to keep going through the working day. Some people may visit coffee shops just to meet and talk with friends. However, many people in coffee shops drink coffee while working on their computers.

46. Where did tea drinking start?
A. In China. B. In Japan. C. In Turkey. D. In the UK.

If you have brothers or sisters, the order in which you were born may make a big difference to choosing your job. A group of British scientists studied 500 people from 11 different career groups.
They found that elder children are more likely to become astronauts and scientists. NASA astronaut Neil Armstrong is the eldest child in his family. That's probably because parents usually treat elder children more strictly than younger children. This helps them form a more disciplined (遵守紀(jì)律的) personality.
The scientists also found that middle children are 30 percent more likely to become CEOs. The scientists said that this could be because middle children need to do more to get attention from their parents. This makes them more flexible. Bill Gates, the former CEO of Microsoft, is the middle child.
Younger children, on the other hand, get attention by learning to pay attention to other people's thoughts. This makes them sensitive (善解人意的) to others' feelings. Therefore, younger children are more likely to become musicians. German musician Johann Sebastian Bach and Austrian composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart are both the youngest children in their families.
The study results also suggested that an only child is more likely to become an artist. He or she gets full attention from his or her parents and is freer to develop himself or herself. This makes him or her more creative.
51. In the research in this article, British scientists studied _________.
A. 11 career groups with 500 people B. 11 age groups with 500 people
C. 500 successful people D. 500 career groups

54. Why is an only child more likely to become an artist?
A. Because he or she gets full attention from his or her parents.
B. Because he or she is freer to develop himself or herself.

We all know there is a problem with plastic pollution. Five trillion (萬億) plastic bags are used every year. One million plastic drinking bottles are bought every minute.
What if we could use plastic waste to build roads? This is exactly what Toby McCartney has done.
In 2019, McCartney's UK- -based company, MacRebur, built the world's first plastic road in Elgin town, Scotland. The plastic waste was made into grains (顆粒) and then mixed with bitumen (瀝青). The road looks just like any other road. But it is more stretchy (有彈性的) thanks to the plastic.
“Our technology can help solve the problem of plastic waste. It can also produce roads that deal better with changes in the weather, reducing potholes (坑洼).” McCartney told the BBC.
McCartney's idea came from a trip to India. “I saw people in India would put plastic waste into potholes and burn it. The plastic would melt down (熔化) in the hole.” said McCartney.
“I know there must be some similarities between the plastic and bitumen, which both come from oil. That's how I started to think about mixing them.” he said.
After lots of testing, McCartney found the perfect idea. And now his company has built many plastic roads around the world, from Australia to Europe. A one - kilometer stretch of road uses about 684, 000 plastic bottles or 1. 8 million plastic bags. The road itself can be recycled at the end of its lifespan (壽命). The materials can be reused to build new roads.
“We are just a small part of ending the plastic problems, but it is nice to be part of it,” McCartney said. “I just don't want my daughters to live in a world where there are more plastics in our oceans than fish.”
56. Paragraph 1 is written to show that plastic pollution is ________.
A. faster than imagined B. better than other pollution
C. mostly unknown D. a serious problem
57. Compared with common roads, the plastic road _________.
A. is easy to break B. is afraid of hot weather C. is more stretchy D. costs more money
58. What inspired (激發(fā)) McCartney to build the plastic road?
A. Indian people's way of repairing roads. B. Seeing cracks and potholes on roads one day.
C. His wish of reducing plastic pollution. D. His knowledge of plastic and bitumen.
59. _________ plastic bottles are needed to build a 10 - kilometer stretch of plastic road.
A. 684, 000 B. 6. 84 million C. 1. 8 million D. 18 million
60. What does McCartney mean in the last paragraph?
A. Children should also join to reduce plastic pollution.
B. Plastic pollution will soon be solved with his help.
C. Plastic pollution will become more and more serious.
D. He is willing to offer help in reducing plastic pollution.

There, our head teacher tells us news about the school. At 9: 05 am the bell rings, and lessons start. Each lesson lasts for an hour. We have a break from 11: 05 am until 11: 15 am, then another lesson, and then lunch for an hour. In the afternoon, we have two more lessons before school finishes.
This year I have ten subjects: maths, English, physics, chemistry, French, history, geography, music, IT and PE. Some people learn German instead of French. It's lucky we don't have exams in every subject.
We have a large sports ground for football and tennis. We can play both during and after school hours in it. After - school activities, such as sports clubs and language societies, are popular too.

Dear Tony,
I'm happy to hear that you will come to China. You have asked me about Chinese way of life and traditions. Here are some of my ideas.
First, when Chinese people meet for the first time, they shake hands or nod their heads. Second, we use chopsticks instead of knives and forks. Most people like to chat with others during the meal. Third, on birthdays we usually have a birthday cake and get presents. We should accept presents with both hands. Besides, Spring Festival is the most important festival in China. People have a traditional family dinner together. Children get hongbao which means lucky money. You' d better not have your hair cut during the Spring Festival month.
I am looking forward to seeing you soon. I hope you like China very much.
Yours,
Li Hua
