Along the Ulungur River in Altay, the northernmost area of Xinjiang, lives a species of beaver(海狸). This animal, which feeds on the shrubs (灌木) that grow near the river, has a strong sense of territory (领地) and won’t leave its surroundings easily. So if people ruin the river, the beavers’ homes will be destroyed and they will no longer survive. But fortunately for these picky animals, they have a responsible protector, Beaver Princess, Chu Wenwen.
Chu had a very different childhood. She was introduced to the wild at the age of 2 by her father who is an animal conservationist. So when the other children were reciting ancient Chinese poems and English alphabet,Chu was working hard to remember the names of different animals and plants. So instead of being a white-collar worker after graduating from Beijing Forestry University, Chu decided to return home and follow in her father’s footsteps.
In Chu’s hometown of Altay, there are 466 species of wild animals and 74 state-protected ones living in the surrounding 110,000 square kilometers. In 2018, Chu founded the Altay Natural Conservation Association which is aimed at animal protection.
The first public project Chu started was for beavers. “We took the beavers as a priority because they were greatly endangered at that time,” Chu said. “The beavers, which can build dams, are known as ‘engineers’ in the animal kingdom. Their dams can change water levels, gather fish, attract birds to nest and bring insects,” Chu explained.
Chu developed the “Beavers Canteen” program which calls on people to donate to help plant a species of shrub that is an important food resource for the beavers. The shrub is also the building material of the beavers. The clever animal makes full use of it.
(28) What can we know about beavers
A.They feed on shrubs and fish.
B.They abandon their homes easily.
C.They are good at finding new territory.
D.They are picky about their surroundings.
(29) What can we infer from paragraph 2
A.Chu had a difficult childhood.
B.Chu dreamed of being a white-collar worker.
C.Chu could identify different plants and animals.
D.Chu preferred reciting poems to English words.
(30)Why did Chu start the first public project for beavers
A.Chu likes beavers most. B.Beavers can build dams
C.Chu took her father’s advice. D.Beavers will probably go extinct soon.
(31)What's the best title of the text
A.Beaver Princess B.Beaver Projects
C.How to Protect Beavers D.How to Improve Environment
D
It would be nice if eating a particular food could magically protect you against all the boring illnesses. It’s not that simple, of course. Hand washing remains your best defense against picking up illnesses, and sleep is a strong defense too. But what you eat does play an important part. Though it isn’t because of just one or two foods, what you eat in your daily diet have an effect on how weak or strong your immunity(免疫力)is.
We’d better eat fruits and vegetables every day. They contain key vitamins needed in the immune system. For example, Vitamin C and A in foods help immune system work well to keep us healthy. Remember that eating the actual fruit or veggie is better than eating single-vitamin supplements(补品).
Getting too little protein(蛋白质) can weaken your immune system. Protein-rich foods supply the amino acids(氨基酸)you need to build important proteins in the body. Animal foods like beef and pork also contain zinc(锌), which your body uses to make t-cells.
Fermented foods are foods that are naturally protected by bacteria(细菌), and they’re good for the micro biome(微生物).That’s the name for the bacteria that live in your stomach, where a lot of cells in immunity actually live. Fermented foods like yogurt help beneficial bacteria develop fast in the stomach, leaving less room for harmful bacteria.
(32) What does paragraph 1 mainly tell us
A.Hand washing is necessary. B.Illnesses make people bored.
C.Immunity has much to do with your diet. D.More sleep does good to health.
(33) Why does the writer suggest we eat fruits and vegetables every day
A.They are rich in vitamins we need.
B.Vitamin A is helpful for immunity.
C.Fruits supply our body with Vitamin C only.
D.Eating single-vitamin foods does little good.
(34)What can we infer from paragraph 3
A.Amino acids can help to make t-cells.
B.Healthy body needs plenty of protein.
C.The immune system can be hurt easily.
D.We should eat animal foods as many as possible.
(35)What is the main idea of the text
A.Different foods have different uses.
B.Fruits and vegetables keep us healthy.
C.Many illnesses do harm to the immunity.
D.Proper daily diet protects our immune system.

One day my grandfather gave me a gift—a piggy bank(存钱罐). It had an opening through which one could put money in. But the opening was not big enough to reach in and get the money out.
"That's the whole idea," my grandfather explained. "The piggy bank will help you save your money so that, at the end of the year, you might have enough for that bike you dream about." He added, "Will you put some of the money given by me in the following days into the piggy bank " I said “yes" and promised.
Whenever he gave me a little bit of money, he would say, "This is for spending. But you can save some and put it in the piggy bank if you want to save it up." When he gave me larger amounts, it was clearly for saving in the piggy bank. For some time, this worked fine. I loved shaking the piggy bank and hearing the sound of the coins. As it became heavier, I grew excited, dreaming about what I could do with my savings.
One day my friend and I visited the new ice-cream shop in town. but we didn't have enough money to buy just one ice cream. So my friend asked me to take some money out of my piggy bank. "No, I can't." I replied. "There is an opening for putting the money in, but no way for taking any out. Besides, my grandfather told me that I need to save money until the end of the year."
"Come on…" said my friend. Finally, I gave in. We took the piggy bank to the park and tried our best to shake out the money. We succeeded. From then on, I became good at taking money out of my piggy bank. Soon, it became a habit. And I started taking out money whenever I wanted it.
One day I was doing that again when my grandfather walked in. I was frightened.

Dear Maria,
I’m very happy that you are interested in Chinese culture, especially the festivals. Now let me tell you something about the Dragon Boat Festival. The Dragon Boat Festival, also called the Duanwu Festival,is celebrated on the fifth day of the fifth month according to the Chinese calendar.
The festival is best known for its dragon-boat races, especially in the southern places where there are many rivers and lakes. It’s very popular. People always eat Zongzi and watch dragon boat races to celebrate the festival. The Zongzi is made of glutinous rice, meat and so on. And Dragon Boat Festival is for Qu Yuan. He is an honest minister who is said to have committed suicide by drowning himself in a river.
Overall, the Dragon Boat Festival is very interesting!
Your friend

The piggy bank fell out of my hands and broke. Grandpa asked me what happened. I showed my resourcefulness in an emergency, lying to Grandpa that I was about to put some coins into piggy bank, but because I had just washed my hands, they were so slippery that the bank slipped from my hands. It seemed that Grandpa believed in what I said and told me to be careful.
The next day, Grandpa gave me another piggy bank. Obviously, he was aware of my lie yesterday and just didn’t expose me. I also realized my mistake, feeling ashamed of what I had done and from that day on, I never secretly took money from the piggy bank again. At the end of the year, I successfully bought a bike that I had been longing for. Watching me riding on the bike, Grandpa’s face wore a satisfied smile.
