Mr. Jackson was our science teacher. On the first day of class, he gave us a talk about an animal called wampus. He told us that the wampus lived on earth millions of years ago during the Ice Age and died out because of the change of climate(气候). We all listened carefully and took notes of everything he said. Later we had a 1 .
When the exam paper was returned to me, I was surprised and sad, there was a big red "X" through each of my answers, I failed. But how come? 2 , on the test paper, I had written down 3 Mr. Jackson said in class.
Then I realized that no one 4 the exam at all. What had happened?
"Very simple," Mr. Jackson explained(解释). "I had made up all that story about the wampus. There had never been any such animal, so the information in your notes was not correct. Do you expect to get 5 marks for wrong answers?"

Wild animals are our friends, but there are fewer and fewer of them. We should try to protect them. The four animals below are now in danger.
Tibetan Antelopes
Tibetan antelopes(藏羚羊)are medium-sized animals. They mainly feed on grass. They are usually found in groups of about 20. They are killed for their wool, which is warm, soft and fine and can be made into expensive clothes. Although people can get the wool without killing the animals, people simply kill them before taking the wool. The number of them is dropping year by year. There are less than 75, 000 Tibetan antelopes left in the wild, down from a million 50 years ago.
Golden Monkeys
Golden monkeys are mainly in Sichuan, Gansu, Shaanxi province and Shennongjia mountainous area of Hubei Province. Golden monkeys have golden-orange fur. They move around in the daytime, usually in groups of as many as 100 to 200 heads, or 20 to 30 heads. They feed on fruits and young leaves of bamboos. But people are destroying(害)the environment where they live. Trees and bamboos are disappearing(消失), so goldenmonkeys have less and less to eat.
Elephants
Elephants are very big and strong. They are bigger than any other animal on land. They are grey and have long trunks(象鼻)and tusks(象牙). They have poor eyesight, but very good hearing and smell. They can lift heavy things and break down branches with their trunks. Elephants are very friendly towards each other and towards their neighbours. Normally, they live in a group for many years. Young male elephants do not leave the group until they are about 12 years old. Now, there are very few elephants in the world. The number of them is becoming smaller because their living areas are used for farming. Also, people hunt them for their tusks.
Wolves
Wolves are not very big. They have grey fur. Wolves have very good eyesight, hearing and smell. Wolves' food is various. They eat animals, insects and snails(蜗牛). They are friendly to each other and never attack people. Wolves are in danger too. They are losing their living areas because people cut down forests. Soon they will have no home or food.

( )2.Which of the following sentences is TRUE?

As teenagers(青少年), you have many dreams. These dreams can be very big, such as winning the Nobel Prize, or they can be small. You may just want to become one of the ten best students in your class.
Once you find a dream,what do you do with it? 1 "Follow Your Heart" by Australian writer Andrew Matthews tells us that making our dreams real is life's biggest challenge(挑战).
You may think you're not very good at any school subjects, or that it is impossible for you to become a writer. 2
In fact, everyone can make his dream come true. The first thing you must do is to remember what your dream is.
3 The discovery(发现)may not seem to be important. Keep telling yourself what you want. Do this step by step and your dream will come true faster because a big dream is, in fact, made up of many small dreams. 4 There will be difficulties on the road to your dreams. But the biggest difficulty comes from yourself.
You need to decide what is the most important. Studying instead of watching TV will lead to better exam results, while saving five yuan instead of buying an ice cream means you can buy a new book.
As you get closer to your dream, it may change a little. 5
A. This is good as you have the chance to learn more skills and find new interests.B. Don't let it leave your heart. C. Do you ever try to make your dream real? D. Everyone is able to make his dream come true. E. Please keep them forever. F. What is your dream? G. These kinds of thoughts stop you from getting your dream.
