In a rainforest there are tall trees. The top of these trees is called the canopy. Scientists want to learn about the canopy. They want to learn about everything that lives there. But it has not been easy to get to the canopy.
Meg is an American biologist, ecologist, explorer, writer, educator, and public speaker. Since she knows a lot about trees, she is sometimes called Canopy Meg. Meg has always liked trees. When she was a child, she made tree houses. Now, she has climbed to the top of trees all over the world and does great research, so she has got a nickname called "Einstein of the treetops".
Walkways in the rainforest were Meg's idea. Now, they are used by many people. A walkway is like a bridge that goes between the trees. It is safe and it doesn't harm the trees. A walkway, however, cannot help scientists reach the top.
One way to reach the top is by a light raft filled with air. It has a huge net on it. A hot air balloon drops the raft onto the trees. Scientists can stand on the raft and look into the trees.
A tower crane is also a good way to get to the top. It can go above the tree tops. It can go all the way down to the ground, too. Scientists are learning about life in the canopy. They have learned there are millions of insects that are eating leaves in these treetops.
Meg's job is to keep finding out more. She wants to help find the secrets of treetops. There are still millions of animals that no one has seen. Many of them are in the treetops.
(1) What do scientists go to the treetops for
A.To build walkways there. B.To learn about the rainforest.
C.To study living things there. D.To look at the things far away.
(2) Why is Meg called "Einstein of the treetops"
A.Because she has always liked trees.
B.Because she made tree houses in her childhood.
C.Because she is an American biologist and explorer.
D.Because she does great scientific research on treetops.
(3) How many ways of getting to the treetops are mentioned in the passage
A.One. B.Two. C.Three. D.Four.

The giant panda is one of the most popular animals in the world. A giant panda can grow up to 1.5 meters tall and weigh up to 160 kg. People think the giant panda is very lovely. So it is not surprising that the World Wide Fund for Nature chooses the giant panda as its symbol. The WWF tells people about animals that are in danger and raises money to save them.
The giant panda only lives in the wild in China. In the early 1980s, there were only 1,000 left in the wild. The main reason why pandas are endangered is that the area where pandas can live has become smaller.
The WWF works to help giant pandas in the wild in many ways. One of the ways is to increase the size of panda reserves (自然保护区). Some reserves need to be joined together by planting bamboo between them to make "corridors". These are paths that lead from one reserve to another. No one may harm the pandas in these areas. The corridors let pandas move from one habitat (栖息地) to another to look for food. People are working very hard to make sure the giant panda does not die out.
(1) 完成句子:
It's _____ that the World Wide Fund for Nature chooses the giant panda as its symbol.
(2) 简略回答问题:
How long and heavy can a giant panda grow to be
(3) 简略回答问题:
Why are the giant panda endangered
(4) 找出并写下第三段的主题句。

Visitors often get lost in a foreign country. So knowing the way is very important. People in different countries have different ways to show the way.
In Japan, people don't use street names, but they use landmarks (地标) in their directions (方向). For example, when you ask the way to a bank, the Japanese can say, "Go along the street, turn left at the hospital and you can see a fruit market. The bank is there."
In the countryside of America usually there are not many landmarks. Because there are no towns or buildings in miles (英里). If people show you the way, they usually use miles to tell you the way and say like this, "Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile."
People in Greece (希腊) are very kind. Many visitors can't understand the Greek language (希腊语). If you ask Greeks for the way, they often say, "Follow me." Then they can bring you through the streets of the city to the place where you want to go.

(2020·唐山市路南区·期末) A famous magician (魔术师) came to our city and gave some shows last month. Most of his shows were educational. He taught lessons about health, history and some other things about life through his magic. Both parents and children enjoyed his shows, the children mainly for fun and the parents mainly for education.
My mother took me to watch one of his shows the day before yesterday. The show taught children not to steal by describing how a person might feel when his or her thing was stolen. In the show, there was a shark (鲨鱼). He often stole things and never cared about the owners' feelings. Then one day he found his own things were stolen. He was angry and worried. From that experience, he learned how angry and worried others would be when they lost their things. From then on, he decided to stop stealing.
