The door opened slowly, and a lady came out. It was Wendy. The boys all took off their hats “Where am I ” Wendy asked.
Of course, Slightly was the first to get a word in.

They went in, and that was the first of the many joyful evenings they had with Wendy. By and by she made them comfortable in the big bed in their home under the trees.

Have you ever entered a tropical rainforest(热带雨林) Rainforests make up only a small part of the Earth’s surface(表面), about six percent, but there are more kinds of trees than any other area in the whole world.
Tropical rainforests are in Africa, Asia, Central and South America, Australia, and on the Pacific islands(太平洋岛屿). The largest tropical rainforest is the Amazon (亚马逊)Rainforest in South America, which covers almost five million square kilometres. The second largest rainforest is in Western Africa.
Rainforests provide us with many things. In fact, the Amazon Rainforest is the “lungs(肺) of the Earth” because it produces(生产) 20% of the world’s oxygen(氧气). Also, a quarter of the world’s fresh water is found in the Amazon Rainforest. What’s more, one half of the world’s kinds of animals, plants and insects live in the Earth’s rainforests. 80% of the food first grew in the rainforest. 25% of the medicines are made of plants that grow only in rainforests. Some of these medicines are even used to fight and cure cancer(癌症).
There are four different levels of trees in a rainforest. The forest floor is the lowest layer(层) full of animal life and receives the least amount(数量) of light. The under storey is the dark, cool environment under the leaves but over the ground. The canopy layer is the upper parts of most of the trees. The emergent layer contains a small number of very tall trees.
These different parts of a rainforest exist(存在) together to provide an ecosystem(生态系统) for many animals, plants and people.
7.The Amazon Rainforest provides us with ________ percent of the world’s oxygen.
A.twenty B.twenty-five C.fifty D.eighty

请认真阅读下面短文,用英语回答短文的问题,并将答案写在横线上。
A library is a place to keep books and store knowledge. Recently libraries are not as popular as before because people prefer to use the Internet to find out information, rather than books. With a click of a mouse, it is possible to find out almost anything people care to know.
But being in a room that is full of books is a fantastic thing. Just think about how many words there are in a library. Each of those words has been thought of, and carefully chosen, by tens of thousands of people. That must make it a special place to be.
Maybe all kinds of things can happen in libraries. Sometimes, you see that a library is used for poetry workshops or guitar lessons. Also, they may have writers visiting and talking about their books. All of these activities are much better because they are in a library.
Lots of schools have libraries. If your school has a library, it’s probably not just a place to read books. Libraries are also quiet places to be. They are calmer than the playground or the dining hall. It’s the books that keep us calm and peaceful.
1. Why are libraries less popular than before
2. What activities can be organized in a library
3. What type of book would you like to borrow from your school library Why
