He was astonished to discover that it was a mouse trap!Retreating（撤退） to the farmyard, the mouse declared the warning, “There is a mouse trap in the house, there is a mouse trap in the house.”The chicken clucked and scratched, raised her head and said, “Mr Mouse, I can tell you this is a grave concern to you, but it is of no consequence to me, I cannot be bothered by it.”The mouse turned to the pig and told him, “There is a mouse trap in the house.” “I am so sorry, Mr Mouse,” sympathized the pig, “but there is nothing I can do about it but pray; be assured that you are in my prayers.”The mouse turned to the cow, who replied, “A mouse trap, am I in grave danger, huh?”So the mouse returned to the house, head down and depressed to face the farmers mouse trap alone.That very night a sound was heard throughout the house, like the sound of a mouse trap catching its prey. The farmers wife rushed to see what was caught. In the darkness, she did not see that it was an evil snake whose tail the trap had caught. The snake bit the farmers wife. The farmer rushed her to the hospital. She returned home with a fever. Now everyone knew to treat a fever with fresh chicken soup, so the farmer took his hatchet to the farmyard for the soups main ingredient. His wifes sickness continued so that friends and neighbors came to sit with her around the clock. To feed them, the farmer butchered the pig. The farmers wife did not get well, in fact, she died, and so many people came for her funeral. The farmer had the cow slaughtered to provide meat for all of them to eat. So the next time you hear that someone is facing a problem and think that it does not concern you, remember that when the least of us is threatened, we are all at risk.56. We may infer that the passage is most probably a _.A. fairy taleB. fableC. science fictionD. news report57. We could see from the passage that the mouse was _.A. kind and warm-heartedB. well-informedC. good at cheating othersD. foolish and rude58. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. The pig was comparatively less friendly than the others in the farmyard.B. The mouse trap that the mouse discovered was not a practical one.C. The farmer and his wife trapped an evil snake that night.D. The farmers family was in fact poor and they had no friends.59. The underlined word “ingredient” (Paragraph 7) refers to _.A. the mouseB. the pigC. the snakeD. the chickenB Our environment isnt as green and beautiful as it should be. There are steel monsters blocking out the sun, blowing out dangerous smoke, and letting out poisonous chemicals into rivers, cars producing harmful waste gas, people throwing out waste in a wrong way and all other kinds of sources that ruin the planet. Facing current environmental problems, people need to do their best to save the Earth.You can see many big garbage dustbins in the streets. Theyre not there for a show, but for you to drop your waste. We should realize that what a little we do does count. So next time you get that urge to throw gum or a chocolate package out of the car window, or “ accidentally” drop as you walk down the street, ask yourself how much waste youve been contributing to the environment with that bad habit going on for years.At home, the first thing we can do to protect the environment is avoid letting water run continuously and make sure that taps（水龙头）are not leaky（泄露的），which would help greatly in scrimping. Another is to use energy-saving lights, and turn them off before you leave the rooms. Its not only energy-saving, but also cuts down electricity costs.Recycling is a method to make items reusable. Many things you want to throw out can be made into new products through the reproducing process. Use your imagination to come up with ways on things that you can use again.Pass the message of simple ways to save the environment on to kids. Starting with kids is a good way of teaching the message early in their lives, in the hope that they can carry it forward as they grow older.With environmental protection awareness in mind, we can do what we can, for the results are to have a big effect on the planet. As long as we do our part, the world is one small step closer to being saved.60. The underlined word “scrimping” in the third paragraph can be replaced by _. A. saving B. cleaning C. cooking D. drinking61. From the fifth paragraph, we can know that _. A. protecting the environment begins with small chores B. protecting the environment should start from childhood. C. wonderful life comes from environmental protection D. protecting the environment benefits the country and the people62. Which of the following isnt true? A. The more people do their part, the greener the environment will be. B. Selling what you dont want any more is a kind of recycling. C. To protect the environment may help you save some money. D. Your bad habits for the environment are a valuable contribution.63. Which of the following can be the best title for this passage? A. The Use of Garbage DustbinB. How to Save Water and Electricity C. How to Save the EnvironmentD. Our Current Environmental ProblemsCJasmine Meyers had the last laugh when the ocean swallowed her SUV Monday morning and brought it up an hour later, damaged, on the beach.
