Mike Myers is a teacher at Chauncey Rose High School in Terre Haute,
Indiana. Last year, he taught his students about the world’s rain forests. They
learned that rain forests are important because the plants and animals of the rain
forest give us food, wood, and medicine.
Destruction of the world’s rain forests is a serious problem. Unluckily, rain
forests are disappearing at a rate of 80 acres per minute! As part of a class project,
Myers’ students bought three acres of rain forest in Central America. They paid
$25 per acre. The students hope that the land they bought will be protected and not
destroyed. The students became so interested in rain forests that they decided to get a
closer look at a real rain forest.
So last June, Myers and four of his students took a boat ride down a river.
They saw alligators and crocodiles. In the middle of the week, a guide took Myers
and his students into the rain forest. “The monkeys were not happy that we were in
their forest. They broke small branches off the trees and threw them at e us,” one
of the students said, “It was a great learning experience for all of us,” said Myers.
Each student chose something specific about Costa Rica to study involving
the plants, animals, food, and culture. During the last few days the group had time
to do fun activities. They went whitewater rafting and horseback riding, and visited
Costa Rica’s active volcano.
Myers hopes to make the trip every year with a different group of kids.
36. How much did Myers’ students pay for the rain forest they bought?
A. $25 B. $75 C. $80 D. $2000
37. What did Myers and his students do at the beginning of the trip?
A. They went into the rain forest. B. They bought acres of rain
forest.
C. They took a boat ride down a river. D. They visited Costa Rica’s
active volcano.
38. The word “Destruction” in paragraph 2 probably means “the process of being
______.”
A. destroyed B. developed C. described D.
discovered.
39. When the monkeys saw Myers and his students, they ___________.
A. felt excited B. felt angry C. jumped off the trees D. left
the rain forest
40. The passage mainly shows that Myers and his students __________.
A. did something to protect rain forest
B. wanted to buy the rain forest in Costa Rica
C. were interested in the culture of Costa Rica
D. went to the rain forest for various fun activities

Mayme Clayton collected books, magazines and letters
written by African Americans. Her son, Avery Clayton,
thought her collection was important. Unlike most books,
these were rare and hard to find. They were written
by writers who helped shape African American culture.
One book in the collection was written by Phillis Wheatley. Wheatley was a slave
who wrote poetry. She was the first African American to publish (出版) a book.
Wheatley herself signed (签名) the book in the Claytons’ collection. No one else
owns a copy signed by Phillis Wheatley.
By the time she passed away at age 83, Mrs. Clayton had more than 30,000 books
by or about black people. Her collection also includes papers about slaves,
photographs, movies, sheet music, and personal letters by black leaders and artists.
It is one of the biggest personal collections of African American history and culture in
the United States.
Avery Clayton’s dream was to create a museum for his mother’s treasures.
Scholars say that Mrs. Clayton’s collection is very important. Without her work,
part of African American heritage (遗产) would have been lost. “We didn’t know
these things existed,” says Sara Hadron of California’s Huntington Library.
The collections new home is likely to be in Culver City, California. Part of
Avery Clayton’s dream is to share the cultural riches his mother collected with others.
He especially wants kids to have a chance to see the collection. “ At present African
American culture is being explained by pop culture,” he says, “ It’s important to offer

Mike Myers is a teacher at Chauncey Rose High School in Terre Haute,
Indiana. Last year, he taught his students about the world’s rain forests. They
learned that rain forests are important because the plants and animals of the rain
forest give us food, wood, and medicine.
Destruction of the world’s rain forests is a serious problem. Unluckily, rain
forests are disappearing at a rate of 80 acres per minute! As part of a class project,
Myers’ students bought three acres of rain forest in Central America. They paid
$25 per acre. The students hope that the land they bought will be protected and not
destroyed. The students became so interested in rain forests that they decided to get a
closer look at a real rain forest.
So last June, Myers and four of his students took a boat ride down a river.
They saw alligators and crocodiles. In the middle of the week, a guide took Myers
and his students into the rain forest. “The monkeys were not happy that we were in
their forest. They broke small branches off the trees and threw them at e us,” one
of the students said, “It was a great learning experience for all of us,” said Myers.
Each student chose something specific about Costa Rica to study involving
the plants, animals, food, and culture. During the last few days the group had time
to do fun activities. They went whitewater rafting and horseback riding, and visited
Costa Rica’s active volcano.
Myers hopes to make the trip every year with a different group of kids.
36. How much did Myers’ students pay for the rain forest they bought?
A. $25 B. $75 C. $80 D. $2000
37. What did Myers and his students do at the beginning of the trip?
A. They went into the rain forest. B. They bought acres of rain
forest.
C. They took a boat ride down a river. D. They visited Costa Rica’s
active volcano.
38. The word “Destruction” in paragraph 2 probably means “the process of being
______.”
A. destroyed B. developed C. described D.
discovered.
39. When the monkeys saw Myers and his students, they ___________.
A. felt excited B. felt angry C. jumped off the trees D. left
the rain forest
40. The passage mainly shows that Myers and his students __________.
A. did something to protect rain forest
B. wanted to buy the rain forest in Costa Rica
C. were interested in the culture of Costa Rica
D. went to the rain forest for various fun activities

Mayme Clayton collected books, magazines and letters
written by African Americans. Her son, Avery Clayton,
thought her collection was important. Unlike most books,
these were rare and hard to find. They were written
by writers who helped shape African American culture.
One book in the collection was written by Phillis Wheatley. Wheatley was a slave
who wrote poetry. She was the first African American to publish (出版) a book.
Wheatley herself signed (签名) the book in the Claytons’ collection. No one else
owns a copy signed by Phillis Wheatley.
By the time she passed away at age 83, Mrs. Clayton had more than 30,000 books
by or about black people. Her collection also includes papers about slaves,
photographs, movies, sheet music, and personal letters by black leaders and artists.
It is one of the biggest personal collections of African American history and culture in
the United States.
Avery Clayton’s dream was to create a museum for his mother’s treasures.
Scholars say that Mrs. Clayton’s collection is very important. Without her work,
part of African American heritage (遗产) would have been lost. “We didn’t know
these things existed,” says Sara Hadron of California’s Huntington Library.
The collections new home is likely to be in Culver City, California. Part of
Avery Clayton’s dream is to share the cultural riches his mother collected with others.
He especially wants kids to have a chance to see the collection. “ At present African
American culture is being explained by pop culture,” he says, “ It’s important to offer

Dear Sir/ Madam
I’m writing to ask for information about the robot course for beginners at Starlight School.
Firstly, I’d like to know more about the course arrangement. For example, could you tell me how long the course will last? I prefer to know if there is any class for the weekend. Next, I’m interested in the visits to Friendly Robots Company. Would you tell me whether I need to pay? Finally, I wonder whether I’ll be able to design a robot myself at the end of the course.
Thank you for your time and I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Yours
faithfully
Daniel
