The moon formed 4.5 billion(十亿) years ago. The moon and Earth worked together very well. They
have a gravitational force(引力) on each other. The moon has been slowing down the rotation(转动) of
Earth, resulting in(致使) a day on Earth stretching(延伸) __1__ 5 hours to 24.
Yet the moon is still on the move. It’s moving __2__ Earth at a rate of 3.78 centimeters per year. It’s
now around 18 times further away from us __3__ when it was formed 4.5 billion years ago, according to
the BBC.
So how is this affecting(影响) Earth?
It doesn’t just __4__ that to the human eye, the silver moon has become smaller in the dark sky. The
moon’s gravitation plays an important role for the ocean’s tidal flow(潮汐流) on Earth. Without the moon,
ocean tides would still occur(发生), but its tides would become __5__.
The greatest effect would be in the long term. Experts say that the moon keeps Earth spinning(自转)
in a stable(稳定的) way. If we lost our moon, it would be __6__ that Earth would spin wildly, like Mars
does. This may cause some extreme __7__. Winters would be much colder and summers much hotter. This
could destroy life on Earth.

millions of __8__.
VII. Reading.

Many people have great difficulty in saying goodbye. But from goodbye moments, we can always
learn something.
Once, I overheard a father and daughter in their goodbye moment. The father said, “I love you, I
wish you enough.” The daughter answered, “Daddy, our life together has been more than enough. Your
lover is all that I need. I wish you enough, too, Daddy.”
They kissed and she left …
The father walked over towards me. I could see he wanted and needed a cry. He came over to me and
asked, “Did you ever say a forever goodbye to someone?” Before I could answer, he went on, “I am old
and she lives much too far away. I know her next trip back would be for my funeral(葬礼).” “When you
were saying goodbye, I heard you say, ‘I wish you enough.’May I ask what that means?”
He began to smile, “It’s a wish that has come down from my great-great-grandparents. And my
parents used to say it to me.”
He stopped for a moment and looked up as if trying to remember it. He smiled even more.
“When we said ‘wish you enough,’ we were wanting the other person to have a life full of enough
good things.”
Then, turning towards me, he shared the following “wish” from his heart.
I wish you enough sun to keep you bright.
I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun more.
I wish you enough happiness to keep you alive.
I wish you enough pain so that the smallest joys in life appear much bigger.
I wish enough hellos to get you through the final goodbye.
My friends, I wish you enough.

We have always been warned of the dangers of the forest fires. They cause damage to a forest. They
kill many plants and animals in an eco-system, which is a group of living things and their environment.
But have you ever heard of a forest fire that can be __1__ for a forest?
People start some of the fires with a special reason to actually do good to the eco-system.
In fact, fires are a natural part of any eco-system. Without fires, the oldest and largest trees would
stop sunlight from reaching the forest floor. Fires can __2__ some of these old trees. When the trees die,
they provide something good for the earth. New trees can grow strong and healthy in their place.
Some trees even need fires to grow. These trees hold their seeds (种子) inside. Heat from a fire allow
the coat of the seeds to open up. Then the seeds fall to the ground and have the chance to grow.
Scientist, who know about nature’s needs, start some of these fires, called controlled burns. A fire is
started and kept under control. This way, the fire does not spread out of the area or __3__ a large space of
the forest. Fires can be dangerous for animals. Even when animals continue to live after forest fires, they
can go hungry __4__ their food has been damaged in the fire. Small, controlled fires mean than animals
will not have to move far to find food. After some time, small plants begin to grow. Animals return soon
after the plants return. This __5__ makes an eco-system.
So the next time you hear about a forest fire, think about the good as well as the bad. It may take a
new eco-system a while to return, but it will likely come back stronger and healthier than ever.
1. A. helpful B. powerful C. harmful D. awful
2. A. take the place of B. get ready for C. be bad for D. get rid of
3. A. discover B. cover C. but D. waste
4. A. because B. although C. but D. so
5. A. almost B. again C. never D. even
C. Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words.
More years ago, when I was fresh out of school and working in Denver, I was driving to my parents’
home in Missouri for Christmas. Suddenly, I found black smoke p__1__ from the back of my car. I
stopped and wondered what I should do. A car pulled up b__2__ me. A couple came out. They said they
would take me to my parents’ home. We chatted on the way into the city, and when I got out of the car, the
husband gave me his business card.
I wrote him and his wife a thank-you n__3__ for helping me. Soon afterward, I received a Christmas

present from them. A note in it said that helping me had made their holidays m__4__.
Years later, I drove to a meeting in a nearby town in the morning. In late afternoon I returned to my
car and found that the battery was d__5__. Then I noticed that the Friendly Ford dealership-a shop selling
cars-was right next door. I walked over and found two salesmen waiting beside the door.
“Just how friendly is Friendly Ford?” I asked and explained my trouble. They quickly drove a pickup
truck to my car and started it. They would accept no p__6__. When I got home, I wrote them a note to say
thanks. I received a letter back from one of the s__7__. No one had ever taken the time to write him and
say thank you, and it meant a lot, he said.
“Thank you”-two powerful words. They’re easy to say and m__8__ so much.
D. Answer the questions.
Helen Monson has always been interested in helping her community. Her first volunteer experience
was for the American Red Cross when she was in high school. When she was a school teacher, she also
found time to volunteer. One year, she organized a Super Saturday Fun Day for kids in the community.
She also used to volunteer at the Mint Festival every year. One summer, she served food, another year she
organized an art programme.
After she retired, she started volunteering to help the old. When her father was older, he was not able
to see as well as he used to, which made her sad because he had always enjoyed reading. She decided it
would be fun to read to elderly people in her community. She also helped one woman write her stories.
Ann was almost 100 years old, and Helen wrote down information about her life when she visited her. She
put the information in a book and got it published. Ann was very excited to share her life story with her
children and her grandchildren.
After a hurricane(飓风 ) destroyed some southern cities, Helen volunteered again for the American
Red Cross. She prepared food and answered phones in a care centre. She says, “I have always liked the
Red Cross because the organization helps people in need no matter what.”
One day, Helen read an article in the newspaper about refugees(难民) who needed to learn English.
Now, she meets once a week with Sahra, a 38-year-old woman, from Somalia. Sahra is living and working
in a town about 30 minutes’ walk from where Helen lives. They work on reading and writing skills. Helen
gave Sahra a camera and asked her to take pictures of her daily life. She developed the pictures, and then
asked Sahra questions about them. In the end, they wrote a book together and used the photos in the book.
This helped Sahra learn many new words about her everyday life.
Helen says, “The most rewarding(有益的 ) part of volunteer work is becoming friends with the
people I help. They enrich my life as well as I enrich theirs.”
