Wildlife scientists hope so. They are trying to protect the big cats by letting people know about their situation and thinking out some ways to keep them safe.

22、 Why do plants grow in some places and not in others? Why does some land have so much growing on it, while other land has almost no plants growing on it at all?
To grow, plants need several things. One is warmth. In very cold places almost nothing grows. Plants also need water. In very dry parts of the earth only a few unusual plants can grow. That’s why dry deserts everywhere are almost not covered by trees or grass.
Plants must also have a place in which to put down their roots and grow. They find it difficult to grow on hard land. The town is built on hard land. The plants here have only the soil found between the cracks (缝隙) of the stones to grow in.
Another thing plants must have before they can grow is food.
What will happen if we try to make things grow on the sandy beach? A few plants, such as beach grass, will grow in sand, but most plants won’t. Even if the weather is warm enough and we water the plants each day, many of them will die because the sand on this beach has almost no food for plants.

23、
In ancient times, a king had a big stone placed on a roadway. He wanted to see if anyone would move the stone out of the way. Some of the king's richest business men and courtiers (朝臣) came by and just walked around it.
Many people even loudly blamed the king for not keeping the roads clear, but none of them did anything about getting the stone out of the way. They just complained and went away.
A farmer then came along carrying a large bag of vegetables. When getting closer to the stone the farmer laid down his bag and tried to push the stone out of the road. After trying and pushing for long time, he finally. succeeded.
After the farmer went back to pick up his vegetables, he noticed a wallet lying in the road where the stone had been. In the wallet there were many gold coins and a note from the king explaining that the gold was for the person who moved the stone from the roadway.
If you were on the way, what would you do? Complain it or move it away?

24、 Stonehenge, a rock circle, is not only one of Britain’s most famous historical places but also one of its greatest mysteries (秘密). Every year it receives more than 750,000 visitors. People like to go to this place especially in June as they want to see the sun rising on the longest day of the year.
For many years, historians (历史学家) believed Stonehenge was a temple where ancient leaders tried to communicate with the gods. However, historian Paul Stoker thinks this can’t be true because Stonehenge was built so many centuries ago. “The leaders arrived in England much later,” he points out.
Another popular idea is that Stonehenge might be a kind of calendar. The large stones were put together in a certain way. On midsummer’s morning, the sun shines directly into the center of the stones. Other people believe the stones have a medical purpose. They think the stones can prevent illness and keep people healthy. “As you walk there, you can feel the energy from your feet move up your body,” said one visitor. No one is sure what Stonehenge was used for, but most agree that the position of the stones must be for a special purpose. Some think it might be a burial (埋葬) place or a place to honor ancestors (祖先). Others think it was built to celebrate a victory over an enemy.
Stonehenge was built slowly over a long period of time. Most historians believe it must be almost 5,000 years old. One of the greatest mysteries is how it was built because the stones are so big and heavy. In 2001, a group of English volunteers tried to build another Stonehenge, but they couldn’t. “We don’t really know who built Stonehenge,” says Paul Stoker. “And perhaps we might never know, but we do know they must have been hard-working-and great planners!”
【1】Visitors like to go there in ________ to enjoy ________ on the longest day of the year.
A.June; sunrise B.July; sunrise C.June; sunset D.July; sunset
【2】When was Stonehenge most likely (可能) built?
A.750,000 years ago. B.Six centuries ago. C.In 2001. D.5,000 years ago.
【3】What do most people think was Stonehenge built for?
A.Ancient leaders built it a temple to communicate with the gods.
B.It might be a kind of calendar to tell people the summertime.
C.It can prevent illness and make people feel energetic.
D.It must be for a special purpose because of the position of the stones.
【4】What aren’t people interested in about Stonehenge?
A.Who built it. B.Where it was built.
C.When it was built. D.Why it was built.
【5】What does Paul Stoker mean by “we do know they must have been hard-working-and great planners”?
A.He thinks Stonehenge is really a great mystery.
B.He has known who built Stonehenge.
C.He believes he will find out who built Stonehenge.
D.He encourages volunteers to build another Stonehenge.
25、 Most children are introduced to a study of history early in their school life by hearing stories of people who lived in other times and places. They learn that the world has not always been e【1】 as it is today. Later in the elementary grades a more formal study of this subject may include local history, n【2】 history, world history, and contemporary history (现代史) or current events. Most schools in the United States r【3】 pupils to take one year of United States history in grade 7 or 8, and a【4】 year in grade 11 or 12. Other history courses, such as ancient history and English history, are sometimes offered as selective course.
Various m【5】 are used to add to the information given in the regular history books used in a course. Students may increase their knowledge of history by watching filmstrips, picture slides, and films. The class may take a field trip to some historical places, visit a museum or an art gallery, or p【6】 a play that dramatizes (将……搬上舞台) a historical event. Other interesting p【7】 include making collections of coins, stamps, or objects from a particular period or country, making scrapbooks (剪贴簿), and constructing models of buildings or historical scenes. Older children especially enjoy reading historical novels that describe vividly a period in the past.
