阅读理解

A wise man was walking from one town to another with a few of his followers, and they happened to pass a lake. So they stopped there to rest for a while, and the wise man said to one of his followers, "Could you please get me some water from the lake to drink?"

The follower walked to the lake. Some people were washing clothes in the water, and right at that moment, several carts (手推车) started crossing the lake. As a result, the water became very muddy. Then he went back and told the wise man that the water was very muddy and not fit to drink. After they had rested for about half an hour, the wise man again asked the same follower to go back to the lake and get him some water to drink. The follower went to the lake. This time he found that all the mud had settled(沉淀) to the bottom. The water was very clear and looked fit to drink. So he filled his water bottle and took it to the wise man.

The wise man took the water bottle and drank, then looked up at the follower. "See what you did to make the water clean?" he said. "You let it be for a while and the mud settled down on its own, so you could get some clear drinking water. Your mind can also be like that lake when it is disturbed by something. If you just let it be and give it a little time, it will most likely settle down on its own without putting in any effort at all to calm it. "

How much do you know about whales(鲸), a kind of fantastic sea animals? Now we are 1  an ocean park and learning much about them. 

We know whales 2  in the sea. Are they fish? A worker in the ocean park gives us the 3 , " Whales live in the sea and look like fish, but they aren't fish. "

We all get a 4  when we see such big whales. However, how big are they really? Another worker 5  us, " Blue whales are the biggest of all kinds of whales. They are 6  one of the biggest animals on earth. Most of them are more than 30 metres long and each of them is 7  enough to be about 130 tons(吨). "

We also learn about some interesting facts about whales. Whales 8  on sea life. Some eat seals and fish and some eat sea plants. Some whales like the blue whales don't have 9  and just swallow(吞下) food, but some can eat food with their teeth. And whales can't take in air under the sea 10 , so they need to jump out of water often. 

Are whales in danger? For some whales, landing(上岸) on beaches accidentally(意外地) is 11 . Beaches are not safe 12  for them. They need to stay in the 13 . Maybe they will lose their lives if they don't get back to the sea in time. Some kinds of whales are in danger14  people catch them for meat, fat and oil. To protect whales, people 15  stop killing them and polluting(污染) the ocean. 

Our visiting has taught us a lot about our fantastic friends—whales. 

 阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

Do you have any dreams? What would you like to be in the future? Some of you might dream of taking positions as a singer or a writer. Some might try to be a doctor or a scientist. However, Zara Rutherford, a student in Brussels, has a great ambition (抱负 ). She wants to become the world's youngest woman to fly around the world alone.

Rutherford's parents are both pilots. Under their influence, the girl fell in love with flying at a young age. She has been learning to fly since she was 14 years old. She got her first flying license in 2020, when she was 17 years.

Rutherford set off from her home city on Aug.18,2021 and finished her flight on Jan.20,2022. She covered 41 different countries on five continents, flying through wildfires, typhoons and dangerous low temperatures to reach her destination(目的地). She not only realized her dream but also made history. During her flight, the young woman met with some of the local girls. She says few pilots in the world are women. She feels sad about this. She wants to encourage more girls to learn flying and love it.

By flying alone around the world, Rutherford wants to set a good example for other girls. Once, she told them, "If you have a dream or a plan, you should go for it. If you don't try, you' ll never know how high you can fly."
