二、阅读理解(共5小题;每小题4分,满分20分)
From deserts (沙漠)and beaches to playgrounds, we can find sand everywhere. But you might not know that sand is also useful.
"Sand is the second most-used things in the world after water, "the BBC reported. However, the UN said we might be running out of it.
Sand is made up of very small pieces of rock, soil and minerals(质). It can take tens of thousands of years to form(形成). But now we are using sand more quickly than it is being formed. According to the BBC, we use about 15 billion tons of sand every year to build houses, roads and other things. That's enough to build a 20-meter-high and 20-meter-wide wall around the equator(赤道)every year.
People also put sand in the sea to make new islands. Singapore, for example, is now 20 percent bigger than it was in 1965. Palm islands are three large man-made islands in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. They took 94 million cubic meters of sand to build.
"If people keep using so much sand, it will run out in many places. For example, Vietnam may run out of construction(建造)sand by2020", Lie Science noted.
Since people need so much sand, they are trying to mine(开采)more of it. But this is bad for the environment. Mining sand may cause beaches to disappear and more floods to happen in places close to the sea. Also, this may affect the habitats(栖息地)of many plants and animals
11.From the story, we know sand
A. can only be found on beaches
B. is the most-used things in the world
C. can never be used up
D. can be used to build houses
12.How is Singapore becoming bigger
A. People build more houses in Singapore.
B. People build more roads in Singapore.
C. People put sand in the sea to make new islands.
D. People try to mine more sand.
13.How many tons of sand do we use every year
A. About9, 400, 000. B. About2, 000, 000, 000.
C. About2, 000, 000. D. About15, 000, 000, 000
14.What is the reason more floods will happen in places close to the sea
A. Over mining of sand. B. The weather there.
C. The increasing size of certain islands. D. The death of some plants.
15.What does the writer want to tell us
A. The UN said, "Sand is the second most-used things in the world after water.
B. We shouldn't over mine sand.
C. People took 94 million cubic meters of sand to build Singapore.
D. Sand is not being formed so quickly as we are using it.

三、书面表达
Dear Miss Zhang,
How time flies! My life in junior school will come to an end soon. Life has been happy in the past three years, but one bad thing in my mind is that I failed an important exam last year. I didn't prepare for the exam because I played computer games too much those days. I will never forget that day when you talked with me face to face. It's a pity that I failed an exam, but I'm happy that I learned a lesson from this failure with your help. That is, no pains, no gains. Hard work leads to success and no one can have a harvest without any effort.
Therefore, I will study harder than ever. I won't waste my valuable time any more.
Best wishes!
Yours,
Li Ming
