Toucans, a colorful bird. Take a look at these facts about toucans, and you may learn something you didn’t know before.
Where do they live
Toucans can be found in the tropical forests of South America. Their home is still in danger. The government asks people not to buy rainforest wood. It’s important to protect the habitat of toucans.
What do they look like
Toucans have a black body and a white neck. The colorful beak is about 8 inches long. It makes up 1/3 of the bird’s total length. It may look pretty big but thankfully, for the toucan, the beak is not too heavy. It is made of keratin, which makes it much lighter than you would think just by looking.
What do they eat and drink
Toucans use their beaks to eat different kinds of fruits, which happens to be the kind of food they eat most often. Sometimes toucans will choose to snack on insects, frogs, and the eggs of their birds. Toucans get most of their water from the fruit they eat, so they don’t need to drink too much water.
Believe it or not!
Toucans can be rather lazy birds and they like to stay in one place generally. They don’t fly high up in the sky or very far away from home. They enjoy staying in trees with their delicious fruit to eat.
Wild cats are the predators of toucans in the rainforest. Other predators include larger birds. Some snakes may attack smaller toucans but typically are more interested in the toucans’ eggs instead.
44. How long is a toucan
A. About 2.5 inches long. B. About 8 inches long.
C. About 11 inches long. D. About 24 inches long.
45. Which food do toucans like best
A. Insects. B. Eggs. C. Fruits. D. Frogs.
46. The underlined word “predators” in the passage probably means “________”.
A. animals that kill and eat other animals
B. animals that are similar to other animals
C. animals that are friendly to other animals
D. animals that are the food for other animals
47. What is the best title for the passage
A. The Habitat of Toucans B. The Appearance of Toucans
C. The Facts about Toucans D. The Ways to Protect Toucans
C
On 10 March, eight-year-old Tani won the New York Chess Championship of his age group. But the boy, who was homeless at the time, began learning the game less than a year ago.
Tani and his family arrived in New York City from Africa in 2017. A church helped him enter a school. Here the boy was first introduced to chess by a teacher Makofsky, owner of a chess club. Interested in the game, the seven-year-old boy asked his mother to allow him to join the club. As she didn’t have enough money for the chess classes, she e-mailed Makofsky. To her surprise and joy, Makofsky agreed that Tani could learn it for free.
Though the chess club helps, it’s largely believed that Tani’s success lies in his hard work. The boy practices the game for many hours a day on the floor with his board. Every Saturday, Tani goes to a free 3-hour class to improve his game skills.
New York Times reported Tani’s story. This has brought him great support from the society. Soon after the young boy won the New York Championship, Makofsky began a GofindMe activity for Tani and his family. It raised $ 200,000 in just ten days, and the money goes on coming, far more than they expected. But the family donated most of the money to the church and other poor families.
While Tani is excited about his new life, he is ready to meet greater challenges. He is busy preparing for the next National Primary Championships. Winning the competition will bring the chess player closer to his dream of becoming the world’s youngest chess grand master（最高段的棋手）. The Russian chess player Karjakin has kept the record for 17 years. He won the title at the age of 12.
48. Tani first learned to play chess from ________.
A. a teacher in a church B. a friend in Africa
C. the owner of a chess club D. his mother at home
49. Paragraph 3 mainly tells us ________.
A. how hard Tani works at chess B. how the chess club helps Tani
C. what Tani’s mother does for him D. when and where Tani practises chess
50. After winning the New York Championship, Tani ________.
A. got a lot of money from Makofsky B. went to another club to learn chess
C. became the richest boy in New York D. got much support from the society
51. From the passage we know ________.
A. Tani began to learn chess at the age of six
B. Tani’s family donated most money to the chess club
C. Tani still has a long way to go before realizing his dream
D. Tani is the youngest chess grand master in the world now

That evening Holmes again wore different clothes, and a large, black hat. He changed his face, his hair—everything. He was a different man.
We walked together to Serpentine Avenue. “You see,” said Holmes to me, “I don’t think she wants others to see the photo. But where is it At her bank No. Such a woman likes to keep important things herself. I’m sure it’s in her house.”
“But how will you know ” I asked. He said, “She’ll show me. She’ll have to.”
Just then Irene’s taxi arrived. One of the men in the street ran to open the door and then another man pushed him. Other men were also pushing and shouting, and a fight began. Irene was in the middle of it, but Holmes ran to help her. Then suddenly he fell to the ground, with blood running down his face. Irene hurried to her front door, but she looked back. “How kind of him to help me! Is the poor man hurt ” she called.
Some people carried Holmes into the house. I waited outside the window and watched. Then Holmes put up his hand, and I threw the smoke-stick into the room. At once, the people in the street and in the house all began to shout “Fire!” very loudly.
The house was full of smoke. I walked away, and ten minutes later Holmes came to meet me.
“Well done, Watson,” he said. “Have you got the photo ” I asked.
“I know where it is. She showed me,” he answered.
“But why did she show you ”
“It’s easy,” he said, and laughed. “You saw all those people in the street I paid them to help us. It wasn’t a real fight and the blood wasn’t real. When people shout ‘Fire!’, a woman runs to the most important thing in her house, her baby, her gold, or...a photo. Irene ran to find her photo which is in a cupboard in the living room. I saw it. But I did not take it. Tomorrow we will go to the palace and tell it to the King first. The King himself can take the photo from the cupboard. And then we will go.”
52. At first, Holmes changed his clothes to ________.
A. make him smarter B. take a taxi easily
C. hide his real looks D. make Irene surprised
53. What can we know about the photo
A. The woman hid it somewhere carefully.
B. It was at Irene’s bank and nobody knew.
C. The king put it in the palace’s cupboard secretly.
D. The king asked Holmes to burn it at Irene’s home.

b. Holmes helped Irene.
c. Watson threw the smoke-stick.
d. Irene ran to the cupboard.
e Holmes paid a lot of men.
A. a-b-c-d-e B. a-c-d-e-b C. e-a-b-c-d D. e-c-d-b-a
55. The story is mainly about ________.

Toucans, a colorful bird. Take a look at these facts about toucans, and you may
learn something you didn’t know before.
Where do they live
Toucans can be found in the tropical forests of South America. Their home is
still in danger. The government asks people not to buy rainforest wood. It’s
important to protect the habitat of toucans.
What do they look like
Toucans have a black body and a white neck. The colorful beak is about 8
inches long. It makes up 1/3 of the bird’s total length. It may look pretty big but
thankfully, for the toucan, the beak is not too heavy. It is made of keratin, which makes it much lighter than you

would think just by looking.
What do they eat and drink
Toucans use their beaks to eat different kinds of fruits, which happens to be the kind of food they eat most
often. Sometimes toucans will choose to snack on insects, frogs, and the eggs of their birds. Toucans get most of
their water from the fruit they eat, so they don’t need to drink too much water.
Believe it or not!
Toucans can be rather lazy birds and they like to stay in one place generally. They don’t fly high up in the
sky or very far away from home. They enjoy staying in trees with their delicious fruit to eat.
Wild cats are the predators of toucans in the rainforest. Other predators include larger birds. Some snakes
may attack smaller toucans but typically are more interested in the toucans’ eggs instead.
44. How long is a toucan
A. About 2.5 inches long. B. About 8 inches long.
C. About 11 inches long. D. About 24 inches long.
45. Which food do toucans like best
A. Insects. B. Eggs. C. Fruits. D. Frogs.
46. The underlined word “predators” in the passage probably means “________”.
A. animals that kill and eat other animals
B. animals that are similar to other animals
C. animals that are friendly to other animals
D. animals that are the food for other animals
47. What is the best title for the passage
A. The Habitat of Toucans B. The Appearance of Toucans
C. The Facts about Toucans D. The Ways to Protect Toucans

On 10 March, eight-year-old Tani won the New York Chess Championship of his age group. But the boy,
who was homeless at the time, began learning the game less than a year ago.
Tani and his family arrived in New York City from Africa in 2017. A church helped him enter a school.
Here the boy was first introduced to chess by a teacher Makofsky, owner of a chess club. Interested in the game,
the seven-year-old boy asked his mother to allow him to join the club. As she didn’t have enough money for the
chess classes, she e-mailed Makofsky. To her surprise and joy, Makofsky agreed that Tani could learn it for free.
Though the chess club helps, it’s largely believed that Tani’s success lies in his hard work. The boy
practices the game for many hours a day on the floor with his board. Every Saturday, Tani goes to a free 3-hour
class to improve his game skills.
New York Times reported Tani’s story. This has brought him great support from the society. Soon after the
young boy won the New York Championship, Makofsky began a GofindMe activity for Tani and his family. It
raised $ 200,000 in just ten days, and the money goes on coming, far more than they expected. But the family
donated most of the money to the church and other poor families.
While Tani is excited about his new life, he is ready to meet greater challenges. He is busy preparing for
the next National Primary Championships. Winning the competition will bring the chess player closer to his
dream of becoming the world’s youngest chess grand master（最高段的棋手）. The Russian chess player

That evening Holmes again wore different clothes, and a large, black hat. He changed his face, his hair—
everything. He was a different man.
We walked together to Serpentine Avenue. “You see,” said Holmes to me, “I don’t think she wants others
to see the photo. But where is it At her bank No. Such a woman likes to keep important things herself. I’m
sure it’s in her house.”
“But how will you know ” I asked. He said, “She’ll show me. She’ll have to.”
Just then Irene’s taxi arrived. One of the men in the street ran to open the door and then another man
pushed him. Other men were also pushing and shouting, and a fight began. Irene was in the middle of it, but
Holmes ran to help her. Then suddenly he fell to the ground, with blood running down his face. Irene hurried to
her front door, but she looked back. “How kind of him to help me! Is the poor man hurt ” she called.
Some people carried Holmes into the house. I waited outside the window and watched. Then Holmes put
up his hand, and I threw the smoke-stick into the room. At once, the people in the street and in the house all
began to shout “Fire!” very loudly.
The house was full of smoke. I walked away, and ten minutes later Holmes came to meet me.
“Well done, Watson,” he said. “Have you got the photo ” I asked.
“I know where it is. She showed me,” he answered.
“But why did she show you ”
“It’s easy,” he said, and laughed. “You saw all those people in the street I paid them to help us. It wasn’t a
real fight and the blood wasn’t real. When people shout ‘Fire!’, a woman runs to the most important thing in her
house, her baby, her gold, or...a photo. Irene ran to find her photo which is in a cupboard in the living room. I
saw it. But I did not take it. Tomorrow we will go to the palace and tell it to the King first. The King himself can
take the photo from the cupboard. And then we will go.”

Dear Bob,
I’m glad to tell you the great changes in my hometown. Many changes have taken place in my hometown over the years.
In the past, the houses were very old and the streets were narrow. But now there are a lot of new tall buildings. The streets are very wide so that the traffic is less heavy. In the past, the pollution was heavy. The rivers were dirty and full of rubbish. But now the sky is blue and the air is fresh. In the past, people had no entertainment, but now people can listen to radio or watch TV after supper. They can get information through computers and Internet. As for transport, people used to work on foot or by bicycle. But now they can go somewhere by bus or underground.
I am glad to see these changes.
Yours,
Li Hua
