(2022·四川绵阳·中考真题)
Snow forests make up about 30% of the world’s total forest areas. These wonderful woodlands are not as famous as the Amazon rainforests but they are just as important.
Snow forests are found in the far north of the world, in areas that are quite cold and usually have a lot of snowfall. They lie across parts of Canada, China, Finland, Japan, Norway, Russia, Sweden and the US. Snow forests have very cold winters that can last up to six months. But even so, they are home to many kinds of animals, including foxes, mice and wolves. In the US and Canada, as many as five billion birds from more than 300 species live in the forests in the breeding (繁殖) season.
These woodlands perform an important job: helping to take in harmful gases. The gases are given off by burning coal, oil and gas, which can cause climate change. However, snow forests are facing several problems. Trees are being cut down faster and faster for their wood, which can be used for building. Some forests are being cleared to make space for new roads and houses, or to allow coal and gas industries to grow. What’s worse, as the world gets warmer, Canada and Russia have seen terrible fires spread through the forests.
Luckily, environmental and wildlife groups around the world are working hard to protect snow forests. This means that cutting down trees is controlled in some areas and the forests are seen as areas of special scientific interest. When wood is needed, replanting plans and careful forest management help to reduce the human influence so that the forests are managed in a way that they can survive and regrow.
21.Where are snow forests mainly found
A.In South America. B.In the north of the earth.
C.In the UK and Canada. D.In the south of the earth.
22.What do we know about snow forests from this passage
A.They need a long time to grow up.
B.They are famous just like rainforests.
C.They produce best wood for building.
D.They are important to many animals and birds.
23.What mainly causes snow forests to be in danger
A.Heavy snowfall. B.Air pollution.
C.Human activities. D.Animals’ waste.
24.What’s the purpose of this passage
A.To call on us to protect snow forests. B.To invite people to visit snow forests.
C.To compare rainforests to snow forests. D.To describe the wildlife in snow forests.
25.What does the writer think of snow forests’ future
A.Hopeful. B.Awful. C.Doubtful. D.Wonderful.

Babies will naturally share food with hungry strangers, even when they’re hungry themselves, according to a new study published in Scientific Reports.
In the study, the researchers first did an experiment on 19-month-olds. The time was about 75 minutes after their last snack or meal. In the experiment, an unfamiliar adult reached for pieces of fresh fruit that had been placed on a dish in front of a child, and the child could choose to either share the fruit with the adult or keep the fruit and eat it himself/herself. Almost 60% of the children shared at least one piece of fruit with the adult.
In a follow-up experiment, the researchers had the children’s parents bring them in just before their next scheduled snack or meal, so on average, it had been more than 130 minutes since they last ate. The researchers wanted to know whether these children, who were hungry themselves, would still share food with someone in need.
The results showed that almost 40% of the children were willing to share at least one piece of fruit with the adult who reached for the food. Some other experiment results also showed that children as young as one year old liked to help others in need, even when they themselves wanted to get something.
31.Where can we read the new study
A.In a children’s book. B.In Scientific Reports.
C.In the food magazine. D.In a popular newspaper.
32.Whom did the researchers do the first experiment on
A.Some adults. B.19-month babies.
C.Children’s parents. D.Many strangers.
33.What does the underlined word “scheduled” most probably mean
A.Left the day before. B.Overcooked.
C.Planned ahead of time. D.Home-made.
34.What can we know from the third and fourth paragraphs
A.The babies ate things very slowly.
B.The babies didn’t like snacks or meals.
C.Though young, the babies shared food with parents.
D.Though hungry, the babies were still willing to share.
35.Why did the researchers carry out the experiments
A.To show babies like to share naturally. B.To know how much children can eat.
C.To teach children how to help others. D.To advise adults to look after babies.

What is nature
Nature means the world around us that is not man-made, including birds, mountains, trees, the sea and the stars. It’s also a force that controls things like weather. We can find nature wherever we are and wherever we go —beaches, gardens, parks, rivers, and even unexpected places like cracks (裂缝) in the stones.
Why does nature make us feel good
Spending time in nature brings peace, joy and wonder to our lives. It takes us outdoors, gets us active and lets us care more about the environment. Even a little gift of nature can make us feel free and hopeful, such as breathing in fresh air, listening to the wind in the trees or standing at a mountain. Ralphie, who is 10, likes being close to nature on a bike with his family. He says, “It makes us feel happy and takes our mind off things because we have to pay attention. We are away from traffic and we hear more birdsong and see more wild animals.”
How can we feel closer to nature
Feeling closer to nature is easy. We can build a connection with nature wherever we are using our senses. Try listening closely to birdsong, smelling flowers and feeling sand between our fingers. Paint a picture and take photos of the natural places that we like best. They may help us feel closer to the natural world. It’s important to try and connect with nature, notice its beauty and how it makes us feel.

Dear friends,
Garden City was hit by a typhoon last week. It’s reported that the typhoon was so strong that many people lost their lives and got hurt. Many houses and schools were destroyed. People there are living a hard life now.
People all over the world are trying their best to help them, not excepting us. Offer your love to them. What you can do is only to donate a pencil, a bag, some coats that you don’t want to dress in, or a little pocket money. A little love is a great help to them. If possible, you can work as a volunteer to help some homeless students with their life and work.
Please donate your love and give out your hands without hesitation.
Thank you for your attention and care.
Yours,
Li Hua
