Jake liked having a picture that said something important that showed he cared. He just never expected to get a chance to save a real whale, one right in his own neighborhood.It was a Saturday morning when the newspaper first reported the whales coming.A group of the animals were swimming close to the beach in Jakes hometown. All the local people rushed out to the beach to see them. They were expecting a beautiful show, better than a movie, but nothing theyd have to do anything about.Then one whale swam in the direction, directly towards land. It came in with the waves, and when the waves receded, it stayed. Its huge body rested on the sand. Suddenly, Jake and his family and all the others were no longer sightseers. They had to become rescuers.A few people ran towards the animal. They pushed and tried to force the whale back into the water, but it was no use.An animal rescue service team soon arrived in a truck with heavy lifting machinery, to help move the animal. Jack and his family couldnt do much on the beach, so they went back to their house and made sandwiches and hot tea for the rescuers. At least, Jake thought, they could help in some way.Back at the beach, they offered the food to the rescuers and were happy to see that it was needed. It was getting dark. Some people lined up their cars along the beach and shined the headlights on the sand. The rescuers would not give up. After trying many times they were finally able to lift the whale into the water. Everyone cheered when it headed out to sea. It swam out about a mile and then disappeared for a moment under the sea. Then, in what looked like a jump of joy, it rose high above the watera thank-you to those who had worked so hard to save his life.根据材料内容选择最佳答案。6.

It is the largest of all land animals, and is found both in Asia and Africa. One of the main places in Asia where the elephant lives is the island of Ceylon. The huge forests onthe island become the home of thousands of elephants. The trees grow thick and tall. They make many parts almost dark, while bright sunlight is above and around them.Living habitsThe elephant likes the deep part and the coolest places of the forest.There he will stand swinging his ears，to drive away the flies；or he will pull down a branch(树枝) from a tree to fan himself.He likes bathing，and to be near a lake or running water.There he takes in the water with his trunk，and spreads it all over his body.FoodThe elephant enjoys the fruits in the forest, and also the leaves of the trees. There is plenty of food for him in the forests, though he is not always happy with what he finds there.Way of movementWhen a group of elephants moves about in the forest，the oldest goes first. The young elephants and their mothers are in the middle，where they are safest. Then all move along with a great noise，the branches of the trees bending and breaking before them. Though the elephant is usually harmless，no one dares to attack(袭击) a group of them moving through the forest.How people treat themIn Asia the elephant is trained to work.At one time the African elephant also was trained.Soldiers in ancient times often went to fight on the backs of African elephants.But now the elephant that lives in Africa is illegally(非法地) hunted mainly for its valuable ivory.In order to protect them, governments around the world have developed laws to stop this.根据材料内容选择最佳答案。11.

If we do, we will not have enough water in the future. 16 It is not a difficult question to answer. If we remove more fresh water than nature replaces, we have taken too much.Many cities run campaigns(运动)to get people to stop wasting water.They show their ways they can cut back on water use. 17 Whats more, they carry out programs that offer money to reduce water use. For example, they give people shower heads and toilets that use less water. 18 Another threat(威胁)to our water supply is pollution. When our sources of fresh water get polluted, we can no longer use this water. This also endangers(危及)the animals that depend on the water. 19 We can save lots of water by not letting taps(水龙头)run while we brush our teeth or by turning off taps right after washing hands.
