Keane Everton is a 6-year-old British boy. He looks just like any other boy of his age,1 he has done an unusual thing. He has gone on a bike ride to 2 money for research on PNH (血紅蛋白尿) ，a disease that his grandfather died of last year.

   His mother,the 43-year-old Gail Everton,said,“3 Keane's grandfather's birthday came this year,I talked with my husband about last year's birthday. Keane heard it and asked what we were going to do for his grandfather's birthday this year,4 he had gone. I explicated (闡明) that we couldn’t really do anything for people's birthdays after they had gone. He was so 5 about this. Finally,we decided to do the ride to celebrate a( n) 6 birthday for his grandfather. ”

   “I think it will be good to 7 him to raise money for the research on PNH，” said Gail.

   A person from the PNH research team at St. James’ University Hospital said ,“We’re 8 to hear about Keane's fantastic story. This is clearly a wonderful thing and we should be 9 proud of him. ”

   “ We are also pleased to see he and his family make this endowment to our 10 . Every little effort really makes a difference ,” he added.

   英國(guó)男孩Keane Everton雖然只有6歲，卻做出一個(gè)非 同尋常的舉動(dòng):在全國(guó)各地騎車(chē)募捐，用于資助血紅蛋白尿疾病的研究，拯救像他爺爺那樣的病人。

1. C 上句介紹Keane Everton年齡很小;下句介紹他做了一 件不同尋常的事情。前后句之間為轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。

2. A他騎自行車(chē)為研究PNH募集錢(qián)款。

3. A根據(jù)下文可知，Keane Everton的爺爺?shù)纳諞](méi)到。由此判斷說(shuō)這番話(huà)是在生日來(lái)臨之前。所以時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從 句用before引導(dǎo)。

4. B上文介紹他們一家張羅著給爺爺過(guò)生日；下句則提到他的爺爺已經(jīng)去世。因此用連詞although連接該句， 表示讓步。

5. C上文提及Keane Everton的爺爺去世這件事。由此可知，upset“難過(guò)的”符合對(duì)Keane Everton的心情描述。

6. D既然Keane Everton的爺爺已經(jīng)去世，家人還是打算給他過(guò)生日。因此用special修飾birthday。

7. D由下文可知，男孩這么小就開(kāi)始自行車(chē)旅游募捐，家人給了很大的鼓勵(lì)。由此判斷動(dòng)詞encourage“鼓勵(lì)”符 合句意。

8. D該句引用的是研究這種疾病的學(xué)者的評(píng)價(jià)。對(duì)于騎車(chē)募捐這件事他應(yīng)該感到高興才是。

9. B這位學(xué)者很贊賞男孩的義舉，他認(rèn)為應(yīng)為該男孩驕傲。故certainly“當(dāng)然”符合語(yǔ)境。

10. B該句引用的仍然是研究該疾病的學(xué)者的原話(huà)。因此該里解為“make this endowment to our research”。

disease n.疾病 celebrate v.慶祝 fantastic 迷人的

   Do you long to have garden-fresh vegetables on your plate every night? Read on for information on how to take care of a garden.

   Never let the soil in your garden dry out. If it doesn’t rain for a few days and the soil feels dry,water your garden. Be sure the water gets all the way down to the roots (the parts that grow down into the soil) of the plants,but don't water too much. You could drown (淹死) your plants!

   You may see some plants in your garden that you didn't put there. These are weeds. Pull them out when the ground is soft and wet. Be sure you get out the roots,or the weeds will grow back.

   Tall plants such as tomatoes need sticks to hold them up. Without sticks,they’ll fall over. When your tomato plants get to be about two feet tall,it ,s time to stick to them. Push a long stick into the ground next to each plant. Tie the plant to the stick with a string. As each plant grows taller,you’ll have to tie it up again.

   If you’ve planted seeds,you can expect too many plants to come out. You have to clear some away,so that the plants left will have room to grow. This is called thinning. If you’ve planted lettuce seeds,wait until the baby plants are about 1. 5 inches tall. Then pull some of the plants out so that you can leave about 8 inches between plants.

   Now that you’ve done all the work to make a vegetable garden,it's time to enjoy what you’ve finished. Pick a red,ripe,juicy tomato. Eat it while ifs still warm from the sun. Or cut it up and put it in a salad-made with lettuce you picked yourself. If you have more vegetables from your garden than you and your family can eat,give them to friends and neighbors. It's fun to have the joy you get from your garden together with others.

  閱讀短文，回答下列問(wèn)題。

1. How should you water the garden?

2. What are some plants you didn't put in your garden?

3. Do tomatoes need special care?

4. Why should we do thinning?
