一、阅读理解(共3小题)
There were three big fish in the lake. One of them, Demo, was wise; another one, Jimmy, was half-wise; Martin, the third one, was stupid.
Some fishermen came to the bank of the lake with their nets. The three fish saw them.
Demo decided at once to leave, to make the long and difficult trip to the ocean. He thought, "I won't discuss with these two about this. They love this place so much that they call it home and will stay on. How silly they are! They still haven't realized we are in great danger now. Their ignorance will cost them their lives."
Seeing the wise fish had left, Jimmy thought, "My guide has gone and now I've lost my chance to escape." He felt sorry for it and then thought, "What can I do to save myself from these men and their nets? Perhaps I should pretend(假装)to be already dead, giving myself totally to the water." So he did that. He went up and down with the water, helpless, within arm's reach of the fishermen.
"Look at this! The best and biggest fish is dead." One of the men lifted him by the tail, and threw him up on the ground. He rolled(滚动)over and over and moved secretly toward the water, and then, back in.
The third fish was aimlessly jumping about, trying to escape with his speed and cleverness. The net, of course, finally closed around him, and as he lay in the hot frying-pan bed, he thought, "If I get out of this, I'll never live again in the limits of the lake. Next time, the ocean! I'll make it my home."
The traditional Chinese lunar calendar divides the year into 24 solar terms. Grain Rain (谷雨), as the last term in spring, starts on April 19 and ends on May 4.

You may not realize it, but you are doing much more than just studying when you are at school. School is also the place where you learn to get on well with people. But this is not always easy. What can you do if you just don't like one of your classmates?
If you discover that you have problems getting on with your classmates or friends, the most important thing to learn is tolerance. Tolerance is the ability to realize and respect the differences in others. We can not change the way that other people do, so it is important to learn to live happily with them.
Tolerance will make everyone get on better with each other. Getting to know someone may help you understand why they do things differently. Something different does not exactly mean that it is bad. Tolerance teaches us to keep a temperate and open mind.
You need to remember an old saying, “Treat others how you want to be treated”. If you tolerate something, it does not mean that you have to like it. No one is asking you to change who you are or what you believe in. Tolerance just means that you should respect the differences in others and not try to make them change.
It is important to practice tolerance, because it will make everyone's life easier. Learn to accept people for their different abilities and interests. The world is very different, and practicing tolerance in your own school and city can help make a difference.

There are usually some people around us who need help. So it's great to be volunteers. But what can we do? Here are some great ideas.
Not every child can go to school in our country. That's because most of them are too poor to pay for their education. But if we try to raise enough money for these students, they'll be able to finish their schools and have better futures.
The city is our home. However, we pollute it every day. It's time to make it cleaner and greener. We should try to pick up rubbish whenever we see it. We can even go to clean up the city streets, the city parks or the rivers near our city when we are free.
They usually have many problems with their everyday life. An easy thing for a common person may be very difficult for them. Reach out your hands to help to carry their bags, take them to cross the roads. Only a little help can make them feel warm
Many of them have no sons or daughters, so they need someone to spend time with. On weekends or some special days, go to see them. It's a good idea to sing or dance for them. Or just tell them small stories to make them feel less lonely.
They are our friends, but some of them are in danger. We should try to protect and save them. If you are lucky to be their doctor, you'll learn more about how to care for them. And when you see them get better, you'll feel happy and proud.
