The world is a lot greener thanks to a young man named Felix Finkbeiner. Ever since he was 9 years old, he has been trying to save the planet. In 2007, the German created an environmental organisation (组织) called “Plant-for-the-Planet”. It encourages and trains children from around the world to plant trees as a way of fighting against climate (气候) change. The first tree for Plant-for-the-Planet was planted in Starnberg, Germany in March 2007.
Since its creation, the organisation has already made great progress with the help of over 100,000 children between the ages of 9 and 12. One year after it was created, 150,000 trees had been planted. And four years after it was created, it had planted a total of 1 million trees around the world.
Felix once said in a speech, “Forests are not only the livelihood (生计) of billions, but for us children forests are our future.” It inspired (激励) kids from over 90 countries to join his movement.
In 2011, the United Nations handed over (移交) its Billion Tree Campaign to Plant-for-the-Planet. The Billion Tree Campaign was inspired by Wangari Maathai from Kenya, an African country. Her Green Belt Movement planted more than 30 million trees in Africa. In 2017, the Billion Tree Campaign became the Trillion Tree Campaign: to plant one trillion trees in the next 30 years. There are about 3 trillion trees alive in the world today, so planting a trillion more would be a huge increase. That's about 150 trees for every person on Earth.
( ) 6. The man behind Plant-for-the-Planet is ______.
A. German
B. African
C. old
D. shy
( ) 7. Plant-for-the-Planet had planted 1 million trees by ______.
A. 2008
B. 2009
C. 2011
D. 2012
( ) 8. What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 3 refer to
A. The forest.
B. The future.
C. Plant-for-the-Planet.
D. What Felix said in his speech.
( ) 9. What can we know about Wangari Maathai
A. She is from the same country as Felix.
B. She started the Billion Tree Campaign.
C. Her organisation planted over 30 million trees in Africa.
D. Her organisation planned to plant 3 trillion trees in the world.
( ) 10. Which can be the best title for the passage
A. Come and join Plant-for-the-Planet!
B. Fun free-planting activities for kids
C. He is getting the world to plant trees!
D. Tree-planting organisations around the world
C
My sister Kimberly and I build our own spacecraft (航天器) and launch (发射) them. We started our spacecraft project as a family three years ago, with our mum and dad. Making the spacecraft was the biggest part. We thought of ideas together, designed (设计) it, bought the materials (材料), and then built it ourselves. So far, we've done three launches.
It's fun to learn. But building and launching a spacecraft is a lot of work. We have to do everything by a certain time, plan it, and test everything. We can't expect someone else to fix problems that come up. We have to fix them ourselves.
In 2016, we were invited to the White House Science Fair to present our project to President Obama! We got the call the day before April Fool's Day, so we thought it was a joke. We were so excited when we later realised it wasn't. When we got to the State Dining Room, a lot of people wanted to take photos with us. Then a ton of cameras were set up. Reporters started interviewing us, and then President Obama walked in. We were nervous as we waited our turn to talk to him. But when he spoke with us, our nervousness faded. He was really nice. We shook his hand, and he asked a lot of questions about how the spacecraft worked.
Sometimes people have doubted (怀疑) that we—two girls—had the power to do all this on our own. But a project like this is not about how old you are; it's about how much hard work you put into it. This is what we want to tell girls: Science is something we can all get into. And it's fun!
( ) 11. The sisters started their spacecraft project ______.
A. to be popular
B. two years ago
C. with their parents
D. to enter a science fair
( ) 12. Paragraph 2 is mainly about ______.
A. how to launch a spacecraft
B. the three launches the sisters have done
C. the fun of building and launching a spacecraft
D. why building and launching a spacecraft is not easy
( ) 13. When the sisters heard the invitation in a call, they first felt ______.
A. it was unbelievable
B. it was boring
C. excited
D. nervous
( ) 14. The underlined word “faded” in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ______.
A. developed
B. disappeared
C. returned
D. passed
( ) 15. What message do the sisters want to send to girls
A. Get into science and enjoy it.
B. Try to do things on your own.
C. Work hard and become a leader.
D. Take part in more family activities.

六、任务型阅读（本大题共5小题，每小题2分，共10分）
阅读下面短文，根据短文内容完成句子。
Students generally find it difficult to prepare for a speaking test because they have nobody to practise with or correct their mistakes. But that doesn't mean you can't test yourself!
Whether you're taking an end-of-course test or an official (官方的) exam like PET or IELTS, there's one great tool you can use: your mobile phone. Nearly every smartphone these days has an inbuilt recording feature (内置录音功能) which you can use to test your speaking skills. You can record yourself speaking, play the recording back, and correct your own mistakes.
I practised this way in Italian. I chose some speaking questions from PET and did the exercise three times. The first time, I made a few grammar mistakes and didn't speak for long enough. The second time was a bit better, and the third time was nearly perfect.
All in all, I made a real improvement with my grammar, pronunciation and how long I spoke. Also, recording myself put me under the pressure (压力) I would experience during an important speaking test.
Many students found this method useful. Nelia, from Brazil, said that she could hear her mistakes when she listened to her voice. She was mainly using the wrong verb tense (时态) and using prepositions (介词) incorrectly. When she tried the exercise again, she got it right! Donghyeon, from South Korea, said that the exercise helped him to improve his English skills in general.
1. The passage gives information on how to prepare for a(n) __________.
2. A smartphone can be a useful tool to test speaking skills because it has a(n) __________.
3. The first time the writer did the exercise, he __________ and didn't speak for long enough.
4. The writer improved his grammar, pronunciation and __________ by recording himself.
5. In the last paragraph, the writer uses two examples to show that his method is __________.

An unforgettable trip
On 16th May, my classmates and I started our three-day trip in Beijing. On the first day, we visited the Palace Museum. We saw lots of buildings that were built in Ming and Qing Dynasties. They're wonderful! On the second day, we visited Tian'anmen Square. After visiting it, I knew it's not easy to found our country. We should study harder to make our country more powerful. On the last day, we climbed the Great Wall. What a great man-made wonder it is!
During the three days, we had fun and learned a lot. I'll never forget the trip!
