There are different kinds of plants and animals on Earth and they get their food in different ways.A food chain shows how living things get their food. Let's find out more about the amazing world of food chains.
Scientists call plants producers, because they use light from the sun to produce food.Animals can't produce their own food.Instead, they must eat plants or other animals. This is why scienists call them consumers (消费者).There are different kinds of consumer animals. The first kind only eats plants.The next kind only eats other animals.And the third kind eats both plants and animals.Bacteria and fungi (细菌和真菌)are also important in a food chain.They are decomposers (分解者).For example, giraffes eat leaves and then lions eat giraffes.The bacteria and fungi work on the lions' waste and their dead bodies.
Knowing about food chains is important because it helps us understand how all living things live together. If we hurt one part of a food chain,it could lead to problems for many different animals and plants.Studying food chains also teaches us to be kind to the envionment.When we learn how to protect animals and plants,we are helping to keep food chains strong.In this way,all living things can get the food they need and live happily.
( )26.Which of the following can be the producer in a food chain
A tree B.The sun C.A snake D.Some bacteria
( )27.How many kinds of consumer animals are mentioned in Paragraph 2
A.2 B.3 C.4 D.5
( )28.Which is the right order of the food chain according to Paragraph 2
( )29. How can we help keep food chains strong
By studying what food chains are.
By producing more food for consumers.
By learning how to protect plants and animals.
By taking notes about how all living things live together.
( )30.Which can be the best title for the text
Useful Producers
Better Environment
Different Consumers
Important Food Chains

( )31. I want to go bird-watching in the park but can't find them easily.I often walk for a long time and see few birds. ( )32.Hiking in mountains,I often get lost and can’t find my way back. ( )33.I collected plant samples on a nature trip but I haven’t kept them well—some are drying and browning. ( )34.I want to learn about stars and planets without a telescope(望远镜),but I don’t know other ways to study them. ( )35.I saw a hurt rabbit during nature exploration but didn’t know how to care for it without more harm. Before you go hiking, prepare a map and a compass.Learn how to use them. You can also make small marks as you go.If you get lost, stay calm and follow the marks back. To find birds easily, you can learn their calls first.Different birds have different sounds.You can download an app that plays bird calls. When you hear a bird call,walk quietly towards the sound. When you find a hurt animal,don't touch it with your hands directly. You can use a piece of soft cloth to gently wrap it.Then,take it to the nearest animal rescue center as soon as possible. You can use a phone app to study stars and planets.There are many free apps that can show you the names and positions of stars and planets when you point your phone at the sky. To keep plant samples well, you can press them.Put the sample between two pieces of paper, then put heavy books on top.After a week,you can put it in a notebook. When you go on a nature exploration, wear comfortable shoes and clothes. Bring enough water and snacks.Also, don't touch unknown plants or animals. If you want to take good photos of nature, learn to use the camera on your phone properly.Try to take photos in the morning or late afternoon when the light is soft.

In early 2024, a team of 15 scientists from different countries started a three-month exploration in the Amazon rainforest.Their goal was to study the effects of climate change on the rainforest’s ecosystem and find new plant species for medicine. The team set up a base camp in the central part of the Amazon rainforest.Daily, they split into small groups for research:some measured temperatures and rainfall, others studied tree growth and animal behavior,and botanists(植物学家) searched for new plant species-walking through dense forests, climbing hills, crossing rivers, and sometimes cutting thick bushes with machetes (砍刀). During the exploration, they made key discoveries: 12 new plant species (including a flower with bacteria-killing chemicals),slower growth of some trees due to higher temperatures, and a 15% drop in certain bird species over five years. They also faced challenges: hot and humid weather, many mosquitoes and insects, and occasional (偶尔的) equipment trouble (which they fixed with their tools). Once, a scientist was bitten by a poisonous snake, but luckily the team's doctor gave proper treatment. In April 2024, the team finished the exploration and returned home.They planned to write a report to share findings globally, hoping to help people understand the need to protect the Amazon rainforest.

My Nature Experience Trip
Last month,I took part in a nature exploration trip together by our school.My classmates and I went to a small forest near our city.
During the trip,we saw many interesting things.We watched colorful butterflies flying among flowers and heard birds singing in the trees.Our teacher taught us to recognise different leaves,and I even found a small frog under a stone.We took photos of the plants and animals and wrote down what we observed in our notebooks.
From this trip,I learned that every small creature plays an important role in nature.I also realized that we must protect the environment to keep nature beautiful.It was really a meaningful trip.I hope I can join in more such activities in the future.
