A
The locusts(蝗虫) in East Africa continue plaguing(造成麻烦)Asian countries such as Pakistan after they “visited” Qatar,Kuwait and Bahrain.
On Thursday,it's reported that China will send an army of 100,000 ducks to Pakistan to help eat out the locusts there. By Thursday noon,the 100,000 ducks ready to eat locusts in Pakistan has been one of the hottest topics on the internet.
There has been much discussion domestic social media(国内社交媒体 networks about the problem. Besides ducks many also suggest sending hens,while som make it further by suggesting catching th locusts to cook and eat them.
The hen and duck strategy was used i2000 when Xinjiang suffered its worst locus plague. An army of about 700,000 hens, roosters and ducks were transported from Zhejiang Province to Xinjiang and helped defeat the locusts quickly.
However, neither the duck nor hen strategy can always be useful. Hens and ducks are good at picking locusts and eating them,but this time the locusts from Africa are mostly grown-up ones that can fly up to2,000 metres in the sky. It is unrealistic to expect hens or ducks to eat all the locusts alone.
The best way of controlling a locust plague lies in the preventive(预防的) stage. One opinion among scientists is that the locust plague has much to do with the EI Nino effect of 2019,which caused heavier rainfall in East Africa,which in turn resulted in more locust eggs hatching.
The same effect caused droughts in Australia and South America, which is an important reason why the wildfires in Australia have been so bad. It might be old talk,but it really is time to control climate change.
1. Which animal isn't mentioned in the passage
A.The hen. B.The rooster.
C.The duck. D.The turkey.
2. What has been one of the hottest topics on the internet
A. The locusts have “visited” Qatar,Kuwait， and Bahrain.
B. The 100,000 ducks are ready to eat locusts in Pakistan.
C.The locusts in East Africa continue plaguing Asian countries.
D. Africa would send a lot of army men to Pakistan on Thursday.
3. What other advice do people have to control a locust plague according to the passage
A. Sending roosters to Pakistan.
B.Making less discussionabout the problem.
C. Catching the locusts to cook and eat them.
D. Using domestic social media to solve the problem.
4.What does the underlined word “It”refer to according to the passage
A. The hen and duck strategy. B. Picking locusts by humans.
C. Flying up to 2,000 metres to catch locusts. D. Controlling a locust plague.

After being treated in the hospital, he still had breathing problems, which made it hard for him to do physical activities. He became very frustrated and lost interest in his hobbies.
However, Alex's family, teachers and classmates didn't give up on him. His parents took him to different doctors for better treatment. His teachers helped him with the schoolwork he missed during his hospitalisation. His classmates organised a study group to help him catch up.They also invited him to join in some light-hearted activities to make him feel included.
One touching moment was when his classmates prepared a surprise party for him on his birthday. They decorated the classroom with colourful balloons and brought a big cake. They told him that they were all proud of his courage. This made Alex feel warm and loved,and he decided to fight harder for his recovery.
Now,Alex's health has improved a lot. He can breathe normally most of the time. He has returned to his normal school life and even joined the school's debate club. He is more confident than ever before and often shares his story with others to encourage them to face difficulties bravely.

五、One possible version:
Last summer,we had a terrible disaster in our hometown. A big flood happened because it kept raining heavily for days. Our houses came down and people ran in all directions in a hurry. What was worse,some people even lost their lives in this flood.
Luckily,many kind people helped us.They provided places for us to live and food for us to eat. They also helped us build houses again.
I think we'd better not cut down trees because trees can help prevent floods. We should plant more trees. We should also help others in need. If everyone can give a helping hand,our world will be better.
