If anyone had told me three years ago that I would be spending most of my weekends camping,I would have laughed heartily.Campers,in my eyes,were people who enjoyed insect bites,ill-cooked meals,and uncomfortable sleeping bags.They had nothing in common with me. 1
The friends who introduced me to camping thought that it meant to be a pioneer. 2 We slept in a tent,cooked over an open fire,and walked a long distance to take the shower and use the bathroom.This brief visit with Mother Nature cost me two days off from work,recovering from a bad case of sunburn and the doctor’s bill for my son’s food poisoning.
I was,nevertheless,talked into going on another fun-filled holiday in the wilderness. 3 Instead,we had a pop-up camper with comfortable beds and an air conditioner.My nature-loving friends had remembered to bring all the necessities of life.
4 We have done a lot of it since.Recently,we bought a twenty-eight-foot travel trailer complete with a bathroom and a built-in TV set.There is a separate bedroom,a modern kitchen with a refrigerator.The trailer even has matching carpet and curtains.
5 It must be true that sooner or later,everyone finds his or her way back to nature.I recommend that you find your way in style.
A.This time there was no tent.
B.Things are going to be improved.
C.The trip they took me on was a rough one.
D.I was to learn a lot about camping since then,however.
E.I must say that I have certainly come to enjoy camping.
F.After the trip,my family became quite interested in camping.
G.There was no shade as the trees were no more than 3 feet tall.

Companion planting is the idea that some kinds of plants can help each other grow.Plants that are compatible(兼容的,能共处的) together generally have similar needs in terms of nutrients,soil and moisture levels.
Advice about which plants are compatible is sometimes based more on tradition than proof.But experts say there is evidence to support certain combinations.These can improve harvests,reduce disease and help with pest control by attracting helpful insects.
For example,some kinds of soil bacteria take nitrogen from the air and make it into a form that plants can use.The plants hold the nitrogen in their roots.Legumes(豆科植物)are especially good at this nitrogen(氮)fixing.Then any crops that share the same space with the legumes can get the nitrogen when the roots are broken down.
Beans and potatoes can also share territory well because their roots reach different levels in the soil.Deep-rooted vegetables get nutrients and moisture from lower down in the soil,so they do not compete with plants with shallower roots.
But some plants placed together may harm each other’s development.For example,tomatoes do not like wet soil but watercress does,so you would probably want to keep them separated.
Some kinds of produce should be kept apart even after being harvested.This is because of ethylene gas(乙烯气体).Ethylene is a plant hormone(激素)that can cause some foods to ripen too quickly.Apples release ethylene gas.Apricots,melons and tomatoes also release a lot of ethylene.Some vegetables are easily affected by ethylene,including asparagus,broccoli,cabbages and cucumbers.
This risk of ripening too soon is why markets often separate high ethylene-producing foods from those that are sensitive to the gas.But if you put an apple in a bag with a green banana,the ethylene from the apple will make the banana ready to eat sooner.
What about peaches,plums and nectarines These kinds of fruit do not need any help from an apple—they release enough ethylene to ripen themselves.But that does not mean there is no way to get the job done faster.
Growers suggest placing the fruit in a fruit bowl or in a paper bag with the top folded over.Keep the fruit at room temperature,out of direct sunlight.Once the fruit is soft enough,either use it or put it in the refrigerator to keep it from getting too ripe.
1.Companion planting refers to the idea that .
A.some crops can grow together to benefit each other
B.some crops have the similar needs of nutrients,soil and water level
C.some plants can damage each other if grown together
D.a good farming method to prevent natural disasters
2.According to the text,which of the following cannot grow together
A.Beans and potatoes.
B.Tomatoes and watercress.
C.Legumes and corns.
D.Rice and sugarcane.
3.What is the function of ethylene
A.To improve the quality of fruits.
B.To produce a poisonous gas.
C.To keep vegetables fresh.
D.To make fruits ripen earlier.

Kusa,a 10-year-old boy,has looked out for his big sister,12-year-old Pahnuly,for as long as he can remember.At school,he helps her unpack her things at her locker.At home,they read together,play games and practice counting.
Pahnuly has autism (自闭症).People with autism often have trouble talking with others.They might repeat things over and over,or be interested in only one subject.But it was Pahnuly that inspired Kusa to think differently.One day,they played ping-pong with their parents at home in Brooklyn Park.But Pahnuly struggled with it.So Kusa wanted to find a way to make it more suited to his sister’s needs.He came up with a new game based on ping-pong.It is called Aeropong because the ball seems to float in the air.In Aeropong,a ping-pong ball hangs from a frame.The players hit the ball back and forth.It’s kind of like tennis,but no one has to chase the ball.
At first,Pahnuly didn’t show much interest.But soon,Kusa heard a sound coming from the front room.Clack(啪嗒声).Clack.Clack.Pahnuly had picked up a paddle (乒乓球拍) and was tapping the ball.Then,she started hitting it back and forth with Kusa and their dad.Eventually,the family took a trip to Menards to buy some PVC pipes and fashioned a portable frame for the ball to hang from.They also designed rules and ways to score points.
Word spread at school about Kusa’s game.His teacher,Stasica,asked him to tell his class about Aeropong.“Kusa was usually shy,but when he talked about his game,his face lit up with excitement,”Stasica said.Kusa told his classmates the game was meant to make people smile,especially his big sister.“When she scores,” he said,“she dances.”
Paragraph 1:
Aeropong has become an essential family activity in Kusa’s home.
Paragraph 2:
Widely spreading on the Internet,Kusa’s game got attention across the country.

As is encouraged to protect the environment,rubbish classification is very necessary.It can save the money and the time for a country to deal with rubbish and it also can enhance the quality of people.
Faced with the new rule,many citizens find it a little too complicated,with every item of waste now under careful examination and classification.Besides,some of them don’t want to waste their time on this.So they don’t do well in rubbish classification.
In view of these circumstances,I think we should take some measures.Firstly,give people more patience and let them get familiar with the rules of rubbish classification.Secondly,more regulations should be made and carried out by authorities to oversee and enforce it.Thirdly,it is necessary to improve people’s awareness of environmental protection,getting them into a habit.
Only by doing these can we help people develop more environmentally friendly living habits and make China a more beautiful country.

Paragraph 2:
Widely spreading on the Internet,Kusa’s game got attention across the country.It soon gained great popularity.Meanwhile,a toy company decided to produce Aeropong on an industrial scale.Now,he dreams of becoming a “creator and businessman”.He said his big sister had already inspired him to create other inventions.Unit 5 Learning from nature-Section Ⅰ课时同步练习

That month,when earthquakes rocked Southern California on back-to-back days,it was a shocking reminder that we may one day experience the “Big One”,a quake with the power to kill and destroy.However a few people saw something else:a photo opportunity.
Tourists flocked to a large crack in a highway to see evidence of the damage for themselves and,of course,take a quick selfie(自拍).
It was only the latest example of how our modern love of sharing photos we take of ourselves in notable situations is colliding with nature and the world,often in confusing and even dangerous ways.
In Canada,a sunflower farm barred visitors last year after selfie-seekers destroyed flowers and left the land looking like a“zombie apocalypse”(僵尸启示录).In Spain,a man was gored in the neck last weekend while trying to take a video selfie at the annual running of the bulls in Pamplona.
The selfie phenomenon entered the mainstream after Apple and other phonemakers added front-facing cameras starting in 2010,the same year Instagram and other photo-sharing apps were becoming popular.From 2011 to 2017,more than 250 people died while taking selfies,according to a study by researchers in India,which had by far the highest number of such deaths,followed by Russia and the United States.Many died after drowning,falling or being attacked by an animal.Most were under the age of 30.
It’s easy to be uncomfortable with selfies and even mock them,especially when they’re risky or in bad taste.But some researchers have explored different questions:Why do we take selfies Can they ever be a healthy form of expression Can selfies be used for good
1.Why does the author mention the earthquake happened in Southern California
A.To show how severe the earthquake is.
B.To warn the readers of the dangers in the earthquake.

A.there are too many visitors
B.the farm used to be devastated by selfie-seekers
C.the sunflowers are supposed to be well protected
D.the farm owner did not want others to enjoy the beautiful sunflowers
3.What is the right order of the following countries according to the number of selfie deaths

I can hear the sound of insects and feel autumn is nearing.This means my year of study at Nara University of Education is coming to an end.
The time I’ve spent here has flown by so quickly.It seems as if I came here a month ago,but in reality I have to go home soon.When I came here,I missed my family and friends and found it hard to overcome loneliness,but on the other hand,I was interested in the new environment and had a lot of fun.
I had visited Japan three times before coming to study at this university,but when I started living in Japan,many days were filled with a mixture of anxiety and excitement.I sometimes made silly mistakes,but I thought this was the best way to learn about Japanese culture.I was not the only one that was not accustomed to the different customs of Japanese people.
My plan before coming to Japan was to make friends with some Japanese students in universities.However,I found my best friends were those who came from other countries.I didn’t know much about other countries but I came to be more interested in them through making friends from different places,which made me aware of many differences and sometimes hard-to-understand customs.Furthermore,I was surprised to see myself thinking more about my own culture and realised I should come to know it better.
I am really happy that I came to Nara.During my stay,I felt the closer connection between humans and nature here than in Europe.
4.What is the author’s purpose in writing the text
A.To look back on his study.
B.To call on readers to visit Nara.
C.To show the beauty of Japanese culture.
D.To share his experience of studying abroad.

A.The author felt puzzled all the time.
B.The author is adjusted to the life.
C.Many foreigners live in the city of Nara.
D.Many students like the author felt anxious.
6.What does the underlined word “them” in paragraph 4 refer to
A.Different countries.
B.Different cultures.
C.Many different places.
D.Foreign students.
7.What do we know about the Japanese according to the text
A.They value their lives much more.
B.They are difficult to get along with.
C.They are mindful of protecting the environment.
D.Many Europeans love to make friends with them.
