Little George lived in a poor village. One summer day George’s mother sent him to the field to pick up some dried wood for the fire. George looked very hard. By the time the sun was high, he was very hot and wished for a cool place to rest and have some food. As he walked along, he found some shade, and by it were some fine, wild strawberries.
“How good these will be with my bread and butter,” thought George. He picked up all of the strawberries. As he was lifting the first strawberry to his mouth, he remembered his sick mother, alone in her dark, cold room in the village.
With this in mind, he put the strawberry back again. “Shall I save them for her ” he asked himself.
He thought how refreshing they would be for her, yet was still looking at them with a longing eye.
“I will eat half, and take the other half to her,” he said.
He divided them into two heaps(堆), but each heap looked so small. He put them together again.
“I will only eat one,” he thought.
But, as he again lifted it to his mouth, he saw that he had taken the finest, and he put it back. When the sun was beginning to sink, George set out for home. How happy he felt, then, that he had all his strawberries for his sick mother.
He heard his mother’s faint voice calling him. “Is that you, George I am glad you have come back. I am thirsty, and am longing for some tea.”

You might have heard that some cities are running out of water. How can a city run out of water To answer this question, we need to take a look at where our water comes from.
Water covers 70 percent of Earth’s surface. But most of that is seawater. Fresh water is what we use to drink, take showers and cook food. Less than 1 percent of the world’s water is fresh and can be used.
Usually, fresh water comes from rivers and lakes. But the number of water which can be used changes over time. People build reservoirs（水库）to help store water so that they always have enough water to use. During rainy times, the reservoir stores water from rivers. When it is dry, the reservoir lets water back into the rivers.
Underground water is another source of fresh water. For example, water from wells is a kind of underground water.
The ocean can also give us water. But we need to remove its salt before we can use it.This can be expensive. So it is not very common in poor countries.
Take Cape Town, the second-biggest city in South Africa, as an example. It almost ran out of water in 2018. Its water problem was caused by population growth and a record drought（创纪录的干旱），National Geographic reported. Now, people in this city are trying to save water. Each person is using less than 100 liters of water a day, according to Xinhua. The government in Cape Town is trying to find a way to use ocean water to help solve the problem.
Most of the water on Earth’s surface is________.
underground water B. seawater C. lake water D. water from wells
38. People build reservoirs to ________.
A. save water for dry seasons B. protect people from heavy rain
C.save water from wells D. turn seawater into fresh water
39. Why did Cape Town run out of water in2018
a.People wasted too much water. b. It has too many people.
c. It suffered a drought that year. d. People dug too many wells.
A.ab B.ac C.bc D.bd
40. How might Cape Town solve its water shortage
A. By using ocean water. B. By building reservoirs.
C. By digging more wells. D. By sending its people to other cities.

As is known, Albert Einstein was one of the greatest scientists of all times. 41 Here are some interesting things about him.

Many children wrote letters to ask him for help with their homework. One day, he wrote a letter to a young girl to tell her not to worry about her Maths homework because he thought Maths was difficult too.
Einstein considered time to be important.
He never wore socks because he thought putting on socks was a waste of time as people already wore shoes. He also thought remembering things found in books was not worth it. That’s why he never remembered his own phone number. 44 It is true that if we are going to do great things in our lives, we cannot waste time.
Einstein liked to joke too.
In one exam, a student asked him why all the questions were the same as last year’s. Einstein replied the questions were the same, but the answers were different!
If we ever feel like giving up when we have problems, we should think of Einstein. When he was a child, his teachers used to say he was not clever. However, Einstein kept working hard and surprised the world with his achievements. 45
A. Give students a chance to correct their mistakes.
B. He was also a really great person.
C. So, never be discouraged(气馁的)!
