There are many kinds of heroes. Even animals can be heroes. This month’s newsletter tells about three amazing animals. Each one is a hero!
Thumper the Dog
Thumper was a dog that lived with a family which had a three-year-old son named Benjamin. One day Benjamin wandered into a large field. The grass in the field was taller than he was, so he could not find his way out. Hundreds of people began to search for Benjamin. When they found him, they saw Thumper stayed with Benjamin and kept him warm. So Benjamin had stayed safe and calm.
Lulu the Pig
The Altsmans had a pet pig named Lulu. One summer the couple went camping and took Lulu with them. The husband went fishing one morning. The wife didn’t feel well, so she and Lulu stayed in the camper. Suddenly Mrs. Altsman fell to the floor. Lulu pushed the camper door open and climbed out to locate help. When a car came by, she lay down in front of it. When the driver got out, Lulu led him back to the camper. The man called for help and Mrs. Altsman was taken to hospital.

this didn’t make Sugar any less special. Mrs. Woods loved Sugar. Later the couple moved to a new farm in Oklahoma.

However, Sugar walked across deserts and mountains and traveled more than 1,500 miles to the Woods’ new farm! Mr. and Mrs. Woods could hardly believe their eyes. No one knows how Sugar found her way to Oklahoma.

Cooking Kills Four Million People a Year
Polluted airborne particles(大气悬浮颗粒)kill 7 million people a year, reports the World Health Organization.
That news may not come as a surprise to anyone who has seen images of chimneys in Beijing, Delhi or Mexico. But those factories—or even the jammed roadways of modern cities—are not the biggest killer. Each year, some 4.3 million people die earlier than they should because of polluted air inside their homes, says the WHO.
What’s causing the air inside people’s homes to be so poisonous that it kills around 11,000 people a day? Stoves. “Having an open fire in your kitchen is like burning 400 cigarettes an hour.” says Kirk Smith, a professor at the University of California at Berkeley, whose research suggests that household air pollution from cooking killed between 3.5 million and 4 million people in 2013.
Not all stoves cause this kind of harm. The ones Smith’s talking about are those that the 3 billion people in the developing world use for heat and cooking, which burn solid fuels such as wood, coal, or crop waste instead of gas. The smoke from those fires produces harmful fine particles and carbon monoxide into homes. Poor ventilation then prevents that smoke from escaping, raising fine particle levels 100 times higher than the limits that the WHO considers acceptable.
Breathing this air day in day out finally causes a lot of diseases: more than a third of the 4.3 million die of a stroke, while a quarter die of heart disease. And around one-third of annual lung disease deaths worldwide are due to waste from coal stoves.
Exposure tends to be extremely harmful for the people who spend the most time around the fire—usually women and young children. In fact, the WHO reports that household air pollution almost doubles the risk for childhood lung disease.
33. According to Kirk Smith’s research, ________.
A. factories are the biggest killer worldwide nowadays
B. burning 400 cigarettes an hour is extremely dangerous
C. household air pollution from cooking is surprisingly harmful
D. some 4.3 million people die earlier each year than they should
34. What should be the deadly killer in a household kitchen?

36. The author intends to tell people ________.
A. how to avoid polluted air in their homes
B. to stop cooking in the household kitchen
C. to guard against household pollution from cooking
D. how to prevent childhood lung diseases in household
四、任务型阅读(共 10分,每小题2分)
We need to be responsible for our environment. Being a frugal consumer(节俭的消费者)is one way to help. But, what exactly does that mean?
Use It Up
You can use things up instead of wasting them. Squeeze that last bit of toothpaste out of the tube. Use the last little piece of soap. Don't throw away any bits of the biscuit at the bottom of the box.
Wear It Out
You do not always need to have new things. Suppose your sneakers have broken laces, but they still fit you. Repair them and wear them longer. You don't have the latest iPhone until the old one doesn't work anymore. Then you can get a new one. Think twice before replacing something that still works.
Make It Do
When something you want is not on hand, look for something else that you already have to take its place. Suppose you are packing your lunch for tomorrow and want a butter sandwich. You are out of butter. Have a cheese sandwich instead so that you can use all of the cheese. Learn to fix broken toys instead of just throwing them away. With a little thought, you can make something do, instead of buying something new.
Do Without
Think about all those things that you would like to have. Do you really need them? How long will you really play with that new toy you saw on TV? Making the things that we want uses up your world's resources(资源). And, getting rid of the things we don't want any more takes up even more resources and space.

Good morning, class. Today I’m going to give a talk about saving our earth.
As we all know, it is very important to do with the rubbish in cities. Why is that? This is because rubbish not only pollutes the environment but also do harm to our earth. What will you do in face of these problems?
Above all, we’re trying to find some ways of doing with the rubbish. For example, we can collect the rubbish in different kinds; some kinds can be recycled such as waste paper, old bottles and glass. Besides, water pollution, of course, is a big problem in the world. A good way we could deal with the problem is to stop the factories from pouring waste water into the rivers.
Government is trying hard to take measures too. For instance, our country has passed some laws to protect the environment. So now, what should we do as a teenager? Sure, we shouldn’t litter anything or spit in public places. In a word, we must do our best to make a contribution to protecting the environment. After all, we have only one earth.

Did you save water today?
I was greatly shocked by the six pictures, especially the one which shows a six-year-old child is helping carry water home. Because of the worst drought, every drop of water seems so important to a family.
I think it’s a great shame to waste water while millions are in great need of water. I used to waste water. I sometimes left the water running when I was brushing teeth. Now I find it wrong to do so and I’ll remember to turn off the tap when I am doing the washing. Besides, I’ll save the used water for later use. It’s also a good idea to encourage my friends and family members to join me!
Water is important in our life and everyone has the duty to save it. I believe if everyone makes a little effort, we can make a big difference.
解析:写作要点齐全,注意过去时态,一般将来时态的准确使用;词汇要丰富,尽量使用课本上有关环保话题的好词好句。
