Jake liked having a picture that said something important: that showed he cared. He just never expected to get a chance to save a real whale, one right in his own neighbourhood.‎ It was a Saturday morning when the newspaper first reported the whales’ coming. A group of the animals were swimming close to the beach in Jake’s hometown. All the local people rushed out to the beach to see them. They were expecting a beautiful show, better than a movie, but nothing they’d have to do anything about.‎ Then one whale swam in the direction, directly towards land. It came in with the waves, and when the waves receded. Its huge body on the sand. Suddenly, Jake and his family and all the others were no longer sightseers. They had to become rescuers. A few people ran towards the animal. They pushed and tried to force the whale back into the water, but it was no use.‎ An animal rescue service team soon arrived in a truck with heavy lifting machinery, to help move the animal. Jack and his family couldn’t do much on the beach, so they went back to their house and made sandwiches and hot tea for the rescuers. At least, Jake thought, they could help in some way.‎ Back at the beach, they offered the food to the rescuers and were happy to see that it was needed. It was getting dark. Some people lined up their cars along the beach and shined the headlights on the sand. The rescuers would not give up. After trying many times they were finally able to lift the whale into the water. Everyone cheered when it headed out to sea. It swam out about a mile and then disappeared for a moment under the sea. Then, in what looked like a jump of joy, it rose high above the water—a thank-you to those who had worked so hard to save his life.‎ ‎31. What does the picture on Jake’s wall tell us about him?‎ ‎ A.

However, things went from bad to worse in March 2019 after heavy rains damaged the only power cables in the area. The villagers were forced to use oil lamps, which are not only expensive but also dangerous because of the harmful gases they produce.‎ Luckily, researchers at the University of Technology (UT) in Lima, Peru heard about their problem and ‎ found a wonderful solution. They made a lamp that can be powered by plants and soil, both of which can be easily found in the Amazonian rainforest where the village lies. The lamp takes energy from a plant growing in a wooden box and uses it to light up an LED light bulb.‎ While that may sound amazing and even impossible, the science behind the ides is quite simple. As plants create their food (using the sun’s energy, water and chemicals from the soil), they also produce waste which they return to the soil. Tiny animals in the soil eat this waste and they produce electrons – the building blocks of electrical energy. The UT team put special sticks inside the soil to capture the energy and keep it in the lamp’s batteries for later use. The researchers say a single charge can power a 50-watt Led light for two hours - enough time for local villagers to get their evening work done.‎ The university gave ten Plant Lamps to the villagers of Nuevo Saposoa in October 2019. So far, they have been a huge success! Elmer Ramirez, the UT professor who invented the lamp, believes the Plant Lamp could help improve the lives of many people, especially small rainforest communities, 42% of whom have no electricity.‎ ‎36. What are the problems of oil lamps according to Paragraph 1?‎ A . They are difficult to use and create pollution B. They are expensive to buy and easily damaged C. They are difficult to repair and produce little light D. They are expensive to use and can be bad for health ‎37. The electricity made by the Plant Lamp comes from______.‎ A. plant food B. plant waste C. the soil’s heat D. the sun’s energy ‎38. What is true about the Plant Lamp?‎ A. It can be made by local people B. It is much easier to use than oil lamps ‎ C. It can produce all the electricity the village need D. The things it needs to make electricity are easy to find ‎39. The Plant Lamp’s inventor believes it could be most helpful for _________.‎ A. rainforest communities B. cars C. poor people in cities D. farmers ‎40. What is the purpose of the passage?‎ A. To report on a new invention B. To explain a new scientific theory C. To describe how electricity is made D. To discuss the problems of poor villages ‎(D)‎ 体裁：议论文 话题：家庭 难度：★‎ How often do we hear people saying that the relationship they share with their parents is not as good as it used to be?

Students of Grade Seven worked as guides who took visitors to different rooms. And those of Grade Eight played a short opera, introducing Guangzhou history to tourists. As for students of Grade Nine, they made beautiful posters which helped people know Lingnan Culture better.     In my opinion, it is of great help to hold such activities. On one hand, it is a good chance for us students to develop a sense of responsibility as well as our work ability. On the other hand, the history and culture can be passed on from one generation to another.‎
