Using what they have learned, kids will choose one species and tell how they survive in their living places. (3-4 hours)‎ Winged Wonders (3-5 grade)‎ ‎ Birds add color and sound to our world and play an important ecological (生态的) role. Students will learn the basics of birds, understand the role birds play in food ‎ chains and go bird watching using field guides and telescopes. Students will do hands-on activities. Students will use tools to build bird feeders, allowing them to attract birds at home.(3-4 hours)‎ Exploring Your Watershed (6-8 grade)‎ ‎ We all depend on clean water. Examining how our actions shape the waterways around us. Go on a hike to see first-hand some of the challenging water quality problems in a city. Students will test the water quality to determine the health of an ecosystem.‎ ‎● Each program is taught for a class with at least 10 students.‎ ‎● All programs include plenty of time outdoors. So please prepare proper clothing, sunscreen and ‎ insect killers for children.‎ ‎● To take part in a program , please email dcprograms@mdc.mo.gov.‎ ‎21. What can kids do at Becoming Bears?‎ ‎ A. Watch bears’ performances. B. Dress up as baby bears to learn about bears.‎ ‎ C. Take care of bears D. Learn how to survive a bear attack.‎ ‎22. Kids who are interested in plants will choose______________.‎ ‎ A. Winged Wonders B. Exploring your Watershed ‎ C. Whose Clues? D. Becoming Bears ‎23. According to the passage, all the four programs _____________.‎ ‎ A. have outdoor activities ‎ B. have the same teaching hours ‎ ‎ C. are offered during summer holidays ‎ D. are designed for primary school students B Many of us love July because it’s the month when nature’s berries and stone fruits are in abundance. These colorful and sweet jewels form British Columbia’s fields are little powerhouses of nutritional protection.‎ Of the common berries, strawberries are highest in vitamin C, although, because of their seeds, raspberries contain a little more protein (蛋白质), iron and zinc (not that fruits have much protein). Blueberries are particularly high in antioxidants (抗氧化物质). The yellow and orange stone fruits such as peaches are high in the carotenoids we turn into vitamin A and which are antioxidants. As for cherries (樱桃), they are so delicious. Who cares? However, they are rich in vitamin C.‎ When combined with berries of slices of other fruits, frozen bananas make an excellent base for thick, cooling fruit shakes and low fat “ice cream”. For this purpose, select ripe bananas for freezing as they are much sweeter. Remove the skin and place them in plastic bags or containers and freeze. If you like, a squeeze of fresh lemon juice on the bananas will prevent them turning brown. Frozen bananas will last several weeks, depending on their ripeness and the temperature of the freezer.‎ If you have a juicer, you can simply feed in frozen bananas and some berries or sliced fruit. Out comes a “soft-serve” creamy dessert, to be eaten right away. This makes a fun activity for a children’s party; they love feeding the fruit and frozen bananas into the top of the machine and watching the ice cream come out below.‎ ‎24. What does the author seem to like about cherries?‎ A. They contain protein. B. They are high in vitamin A.‎ C. They have a pleasant taste. D. They are rich in antioxidants.‎ ‎25.

A research paper. D. A travel brochure.‎ C ‎ "Mummy, I don' t know what to play with." Steve interrupts his mother, who is talking to a friend, for the fourth time. "You've got a room full of toys!" his mother says, impatiently. In fact it is the jumble of toys which is to blame for four-year-old Steve's lack of interest in his dolls, cars and stuffed (packed) animals. Each morning he tips out three washing baskets of toys all over his floor, listlessly pulls out something and shortly after is standing at his mother's desk or following her into the kitchen saying: "Mummy, I am bored." ‎ A family therapist (心理医生) explains why children lose interest when they have a whole "toy shop" at home: "According to their brain development, little children are not in a position to judge the quality of a variety of things at once. There is always just one favorite toy for the moment. All the rest is left lying about." What can parents do to stop their children from being oversupplied with toys? Under no conditions simply make something disappear without the child's knowledge. If he/she takes no more notice of a toy, a parent can ask if it can be stored or given away. Be warned though the child will always say he/she wants it then! A talk with relatives and friends may also help. Lyn is the mother of four-year-old Jessie, and we like her way. A small set of shelves in her child's room holds the toys and books that are the current (at present) favorites. When it seems to her that her daughter is tired of these toys, they put them away in a box together and select some other toys from a cupboard in another room. The box of "old" toys goes into the cupboard. When her child says she is "bored", they also get something from her cupboard - it may be something she has had for some time but because she hasn't seen it for a while it is almost like a new toy. ‎ Some favorite toys stay out all the time, and there is collection of dolls which sits in the corner, but in this way Lyn has found that she has fewer toys to put away at the end of the day and her daughter always has something "fresh" to play with. ‎ ‎28. Steve interrupted his mother several times because ________. ‎ A. he felt uninterested in his toys ‎ B. he disliked his mother's guest ‎ C. he didn't have enough toys to play with ‎ D. he hoped his mother would play with him ‎ ‎29. According to the therapist, children often complain that they have nothing to play with because ____. ‎ A. they can't play alone for a long time ‎ B. they are too young to play with so many toys ‎ C. they are too lazy to pick out their favorites ‎ D. they lack the ability to value too many things at a time ‎ ‎30. Which of the following can be used in place of "jumble"? ‎ A. Simple choice. B. Mixture in disorder. ‎ C. Ordinary appearance. D. Same shape. ‎ ‎31. Which is the advice given to parents in the text? ‎ A. Buy fewer toys for their children. ‎ B. Form good habits for their children. ‎ C. Spare some time to play with their children. ‎ D. Put some toys away without telling their children. ‎ D Humans are social animals. They live in groups all over the world. As these groups of people live apart from other groups, over the years and centuries they develop their own habits and ideas, which are different from other cultures. One important particular side of every culture is how its people deal with time.‎ Time is not very important in nonindustrial societies. The Nuer people of East Africa, for example, do not even have a word TIME that is in agreement with the abstract thing we call time. The daily lives of the people of such nonindustrial societies are likely to be patterned around their physical needs and natural events rather than around a time schedule（时间表）based on the clock. They cook and eat when they are hungry and sleep when the sun goes down. They plant crops during the growing seasons and harvest them when the crops are ripe. They measure time not by a clock or calendar（日历）,but by saying that an event takes place before or after some other event Frequently such a society measures days in terms of “sleeps” or longer periods in terms of “moons”. Some cultures, such as the Eskimos of Greenland measure seasons according to the migration of certain animals.‎ Some cultures which do not have a written language or keep written records have developed interesting ways of “telling time”. For example, when several Australian aborigines want to plan an event for a future time, one of them places a stone on a cliff or in a tree. Each day the angle of the sun changes slightly. In a few days, the rays of the sun strike the stone in a certain way. When this happens, the people see that the agreed-upon time has arrived and the event can take place.‎ In contrast(成对比), exactly correct measurement of time is very important in modern, industrialized societies. This is because industrialized societies require the helpful efforts of many people in order to work. For a factory to work efficiently (well, quickly and without waste), for example, all of the workers must work at the same time. Therefore, they must know what time to start work in the morning and what time they may go home in the afternoon. Passengers must know the exact time that an airplane will arrive or depart. Students and teachers need to know when a class starts and ends. Stores must open on time in order to serve their customers. Complicated（复杂的）societies need clocks and calendars. Thus, we can see that if each person worked according to his or her own schedule, a complicated society could hardly work at all.‎ ‎32. By saying “Humans are social animals”, the author means_______ .‎ ‎ A. they live all over the world ‎ B. they are different from other animals C. they live in one place, district or country, considered as a whole ‎ D. they are divided into many groups ‎ ‎33. Time is not very important in nonindustrial societies because people in those societies_________.‎ ‎ A. don’t have the word TIME in their languages B. don’t get used to using clocks and other timepieces C. don’t measure time in their daily-lives around an exact time schedule D. don’t need to plan their daily lives around an exact time schedule ‎34. The Australian aborigines’ way of “telling time” is based on ________.‎ A. the change of the sun rays B. the movement of the earth in relation to the sun C. the position of the stone D. the position of the tree or the cliff ‎35. Which of the following might be the best title for this passage?‎ A. Time and Culture B. The Measurement of Time C. Time Schedule and Daily Life D. Clock, Calendar and Society 第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Getting your children to study can be a little like getting them to eat their vegetables.‎ ‎__36__ Make a study time and have it at the same time every day.

We can also relax ourselves by listening to music or doing sports, such as playing balls, climbing mountains and taking a walk. Besides, enough sleep and a balanced diet will work as well.‎ Follow my advice and you will enjoy your school life.‎
