We've all heard about the man who discovered gravity （重力） and the apple that fell from a tree and hit him on the head.However，the 17th-century "aha moment" is actually a bit of a lie!Newton did witness an apple falling from a tree one day and this got him thinking about what actually caused the apple to fall to the ground.
Newton later developed his theory of Gravity，believing that Earth has a force that pulls objects down，which prevents objects from aimlessly floating around.
While we know that Isaac Newton discovered Gravity，he also made many other scientific discoveries.Newton is also credited with discovering the three laws of motion.These three laws，or principles，explain how things move.
Law 1：An object at rest stays at rest.A moving object keeps moving.Objects continue doing what they're doing unless a stronger force acts on them.
Here，the stronger force is the wall.It stops the truck but not the boxes，so they keep moving forward. Law 2：It takes more force （力量） to move a heavy object than a lighter one.Newton came up with a scientific formula （公式） to explain this：
Force=Mass×Acceleration
（质量）（加速度）
Large weights with a lot of mass require more force to lift than smaller，lighter weights do. Law 3：For every force，there is an equal reaction （相等大小的作用力） in the opposite direction.
Air from an untied balloon rushes out in one direction.As the air escapes，it pushes the balloon in the opposite direction.
21.The picture in Law 1 shows that ______ .
A. the boxes are a stronger force than the truck
B. the truck stays at rest，but the boxes do not.
C. the wall acts on the truck but not on the boxes.
D. the truck moves forward，but the boxes move backward
22.The underlined word "this" in Law 2 refers to "______ ".
A. the law. B. the force. C. the object. D. the formula.
23.From the example in Law 2，we can know that ______ .
A. adults are stronger than children.
B. more force is required to lift a heavier object.
C. the larger an object is，the faster it is to lift it.
D. an object moves more quickly when a heavy man lifts it.
24.Which law of motion can explain the following picture？______
A. Law 1. B. Law 2. C. Law 3. D. Law of Force.
25.The purpose of the passage is to ______ .
A. introduce how Newton discovered the three laws.
B. provide the formulas for Newton's laws of motion.
C. explain how Newton's laws of motion work in our life.
D. encourage students to learn Newton's laws of motion well.

Mama pulled the car into a small alley （小巷）.When she shut the engine off，everything got in quiet.
I hung a beach towel over the clothesline that Mama had strung along the middle of the car to make me a bedroom.I could picture my classmate Luanne，lying in her pink-and-white quilt with her toy animals lined up along the wall beside her，and I surely felt sorry for myself.
Then I curled up on the seat，turning every which way trying to get myself comfortable.Finally，I settled on my back with my feet right against the car door and looked out at the starry sky.
And then I saw it.A sign，up there on a telephone pole right outside the car window.An old sign that said：REWARD （酬谢）＄ 500.And under that was a picture of a bug-eyed little dog with its tongue hanging out.
And then under that it said：HAVE YOU SEEN ME？MY NAME IS MITSY.
Five hundred dollars!Who in the world would pay five hundred dollars for that little dog？
"Mama？" I whispered through my beach towel wall.
Mama rustled （沙沙作响） some in the front seat.
"Would five hundred dollars be enough money to get us a place to live？" I asked.
Mama sighed. "I suppose so，Georgina.Now go to sleep.You got school tomorrow."
I looked up at Mitsy and my mind started racing.
What if I could find that dog？I could get that money，and we could have a real place to live instead of this dirty old car.
But that dog could be anywhere.I wouldn't even know where to look for it.Besides，that sign was old.somebody had probably already found Mitsy and got that five hundred dollars.
I stared out the window at the sign，thinking about Mitsy and wondering if there were other people out there who would pay money for their lost dogs.
And that's when I got a thought that made me sit up so fast that Toby mumbled in his sleep and Mama hissed， "Shhhh—."
I folded my legs up and lay back down in my beach towel bedroom.The car seat smelled like oily French fries and bug spray.I closed my eyes and smiled to myself.I had a plan…

31.阅读短文，回答下面5个问题。（每题答案不超过10个词）
In January，some special artworks were shown at Lillian M.Jacobs School in Hull，Massachusetts.The sculptures are made entirely of rubbish collected by sixth-graders!
The school lies on the coast of the Atlantic Ocean.In February 2024，the students spent a cold day cleaning up a nearly 1-mile area of Nantasket Beach.They collected more than 40 bags of rubbish.
"I often go to the beach and don't notice the rubbish，" says Derek DeGallo，who is now a seventh-grader. "But when I looked for it，I realized how much there was."
Every year，billions of pounds of rubbish end up in oceans all over the world.The students found many things on the beach，from fishing lines to old shopping carts.Most of it is plastic.This waste makes beaches dirty and can hurt sea animals — many get stuck in the plastic or eat it by mistake，falling ill.
After their beach cleanup，the students sorted the rubbish into groups like glass，plastic and foam and counted each piece of rubbish.They sent the data to the Center for Coastal Studies，an organization that helps protect the ocean near Massachusetts.
Then，a local artist named Jackie Ranney and the school's teachers helped the students turn the rubbish into sculptures of fish and other sea creatures，like whales and seahorses.The artworks show people how important it is to take care of the earth.
"I hope kids see these artworks and think about how they use plastic，" says Ranney，the local artist. "They might ask themselves， 'Do I throw away and recycle my rubbish in the right way？'"
Derek，now a seventh-grader，feels proud that he and his classmates helped stop rubbish from getting into the ocean.
"Our town's beaches are wonderful，" he says. "We want to make sure they stay clean."
(1) Why are some artworks shown at Lillian M.Jacobs School special？
______
(2) What did Derek realize when he collected rubbish？
______
(3) How does rubbish hurt sea animals？
______
(4) What did students do after cleaning the beach？
______
(5) What do you think about the students' activities？Why？
______
