Mike
Myers
is
a
teacher
at
Chauncey
Rose
High
School
in
Terre
Haute,
Indiana.
Last
year,
he
taught
his
students
about
the
world’s
rain
forests.
They
learned
that
rain
forests
are
important
because
the
plants
and
animals
of
the
rain
forest
give
us
food,
wood,
and
medicine.
Destruction
of
the
world’s
rain
forests
is
a
serious
problem.
Unluckily,
rain
forests
are
disappearing
at
a
rate
of
80
acres
per
minute!
As
part
of
a
class
project,
Myers’
students
bought
three
acres
of
rain
forest
in
Central
America.
They
paid
$25
per
acre.
The
students
hope
that
the
land
they
bought
will
be
protected
and
not
destroyed.
The
students
became
so
interested
in
rain
forests
that
they
decided
to
get
a
closer
look
at
a
real
rain
forest.
So
last
June,
Myers
and
four
of
his
students
took
a
boat
ride
down
a
river.
They
saw
alligators
and
crocodiles.
In
the
middle
of
the
week,
a
guide
took
Myers
and
his
students
into
the
rain
forest.
“The
monkeys
were
not
happy
that
we
were
in
their
forest.
They
broke
small
branches
off
the
trees
and
threw
them
at
us,”
one
of
the
students
said,
“It
was
a
great
learning
experience
for
all
of
us,”
said
Myers.
Each
student
chose
something
specific
about
Costa
Rica
to
study
involving
the
plants,
animals,
food,
and
culture.
During
the
last
few
days
the
group
had
time
to
do
fun
activities.
They
went
whitewater
rafting
and
horseback
riding,
and
visited
Costa
Rica’s
active
volcano.
Myers
hopes
to
make
the
trip
every
year
with
a
different
group
of
kids.
1．How
much
did
Myers’
students
pay
for
the
rain
forest
they
bought?
A．$25
B．$75
C．$80
D．$2000
2．What
did
Myers
and
his
students
do
at
the
beginning
of
the
trip?
A．They
went
into
the
rain
forest.
B．They
bought
acres
of
rain
forest.
C．They
took
a
boat
ride
down
a
river.
D．They
visited
Costa
Rica’s
active
volcano.
3．The
word
“Destruction”
in
paragraph
2
probably
means
“the
process
of
being
______.”
A．destroyed（破坏）
B．developed
（发展）
C．described（描述）
D．discovered（发现）
4．When
the

and
his
students,
they
___________.

B．felt

C．jumped
off
the
trees

the

to
protect
rain
forest
B．wanted
to
buy

rain
forest

When
I
was
four
years
old,
I
got
stung(叮)
by
a
bee,
twice
one
week
.
After
that,
I
was
really
scared
of
bees.
That
was
when
my
parents
s__1__
that
I
should
learn
about
bees
instead
of
being
scared,
I
read
p__2__books
and
watched
videos
about
this.
And
I
learned
how
important
these
i__3__
are
to
our
world.
Bees
help
make
the
food
we
eat
because
of
their
population(授粉)，which
helps
the
plants
grow.
The
bad
news
is
that
bees
are
struggling
to
survive(幸存).
Many
are
dying.
Some
scientists
think
it
might
be
because
of
chemicals
that
are
used
to
kill
o__4__
insects.
What
would
happen
if
there
were
no
more
bees?
I
wanted
to
help.
What
if
I
make
lemonade,
sell
it
and
r__5__
money
to
help
bees?
I
talked
to
my
granny,
Helen.
She
gave
me
her
recipe(配方)
for
lemonade.
It
came
from
a
cookbook
from
1918.
I
a__6__
honey
to
her
old
recipe
that
day.
I
could
sell
the
lemonade
and
donate
some
of
the
money
to
g___7__
that
are
helping
to
save
bees.
I
could
also
s__8__
local
beekeepers
by
using
their
honey
in
my
product
and
I
would
be
educating
others
on
the
importance
of
bees
and
helping
to
save
them.
My
dad
showed
me
how
to
make
a
budget
and
plan
for
supplies
that
I’d
need
to
buy.
At
first
I
sold
lemonade
at
a
stand(摊位)
at
a
kid’s
b__9__
event.
Now
more
than
30
grocery
stores
sell
it,
too.
This
year,
we
sold
about
140,000
bottles.
I
love
helping
to
save
bees.
It's
the
s__10__feeling
ever.

For
convenience（方便）.
plenty
of
people
prefer
having
a
takeaway（外卖）to
cooking
at
home.
Now
there
is
an
app
through
which
people
can
enjoy
delicious
and
cheap
takeaway
food.
Too
Good
To
Go,
an
app
being
used
in
the
UK,
allows
users
to
order
leftover（剩余的）food
at
a
low
price
from
restaurants.
The
purpose
is
to
cut
down
on
food
waste,
as
lots
of
restaurants
usually
throw
away
the
food
that
can
still
be
eaten
at
the
end
of
the
day.
Users
just
need
to
pick
a
restaurant
and
pay
through
the
app.
Then
they
pick
up
their
food
at
planned
times
usually
around
closing
time
or
after
peak
(高峰期的)
meal
times.
"Food
waste
is
one
of
the
biggest
problems
we
have
in
this
world,"
one
creator
of
the
app
said.
"The
restaurant
industry
is
wasting
about
600,000
tons
of
food
each
year."
By
the
end
of
August,
Too
Good
To
Go
had
helped
save
about
600
meals
in
the
UK.
Users
also
have
the
choice
to
give
meals
to
people
who
are
in
need
by
donating
one
British
pound
or
more
through
the
app.
By
the
end
of
August,
more
than
1,100
meals
had
been
donated.
Too
Good
To
Go
isn't
the
first
app
to
try
to
deal
with
food
waste.
In
Spain,
the
Yo
No
Desperdicio
app
allows
people
to
exchange
leftover
food
with
each
other.
In
the
US,
the
Food
Cowboy
app
allows
food
shops
to
sell
"ugly
vegetables"
that
most
customers
don't
buy
to
charities
and
food
banks
that
need
them.
