A篇
The Amazon is the world's biggest rainforest. It is in South America. It is so wide that it covers a little more than half the size of China! The Amazon River runs through the rainforest. It's the world's second-longest river. The Amazon covers much of Brazil. The green colour on the national flag of Brazil stands for the rainforest.
However, climate change and human activities make it "sick". Usually, the rainforest can fix itself. But now, it feels too "tired" to get better. According to a new study, many trees there may die, and the Amazon rainforest may turn into hot, dry grassland in a few years.
Why is the Amazon "sick"
The Amazon is one of the world's wettest places. But since 2005, three droughts have hit the rainforest. They were caused by climate change. The trees don't have enough water to grow. What's worse, as they become dry, they can easily catch fire.
Besides, people cut down rainforest trees for wood. They burn the forest to make farmland. All these kinds of activities have made about 17% of the rainforest disappear.
what will happen if we lose the "lungs of the Earth"
The Amazon is like the lungs of our planet. The rich plants there take carbon dioxide (CO ) out of the air and make oxygen (O ). They make more than 20% of the planet's oxygen. If the Amazon "dies", there will be more CO , and our Earth will become even hotter.
The Amazon is also home to over 3 million animals and plants. Many of them can't live anywhere else. They would very likely just disappear.
1. What does the green colour on the national flag of Brazil stand for

C. The land. D. The sky.

3. Which activity is NOT mentioned as a reason why the Amazon is "sick"
A. People cut down trees for wood. B. People burn the forest to make farmland.
C. People visit the rainforest too often. D. Trees don't have enough water to grow.
4. What can we infer (推断) about the future of the Amazon if we don't protect it
A. It will become even healthier. B. It may turn into a hot, dry grassland.
C. It will produce more oxygen. D. It will attract more animals.
5. What is the correct structure of the whole passage

Qomolangma is the highest mountain in the world, it is 8,848.86 metres high. It's called the "Roof of the World". But Mount Kilimanjaro is the highest mountain in Africa. It is one of the most beautiful places on the earth which is 5,895 metres above sea level, so it is often called "the Roof of Africa".
Climb lovers' dream place—Mount Kilimanjaro
It is one of the world's highest "walkable" mountains. People can climb the mountain all year round, but many people will choose to climb during the mountain's two "dry" seasons: January to March and June to October. If they want to reach the top of it, they can climb in the rainy season too, but the weather condition may not be good and it may be difficult to achieve.
The first recorded climb of Mount Kilimanjaro
It's believed that the first people known to have reached the top of the mountain were Hans Meyer and Ludwig Purtscheller. They successfully reached the summit on 6th October, 1889.
The beautiful snow cap of Mount Kilimanjaro
Even though it is hot there, the top of the mountain is covered with ice and snow the whole year. There are many famous stories of the snow cap of Mount Kilimanjaro. It formed about 11,000 years ago, but a research said that it might disappear.
