Rainforests are some of the most amazing places on earth. 12 These thick forests are found in warm and wet areas near the equator.
The rainforest is like a huge, green world. The tall trees form a canopy (天蓬，顶棚), which is like a big roof high above the ground. Under this canopy, there are many smaller plants, vines, and flowers. The air is always humid, filled with the sounds of birds, insects, and animals.
Rainforests are very important for our planet. They are often called the “lungs of the earth” because they absorb a large amount of carbon dioxide and release oxygen. 13
14 Monkeys swing from tree to tree, colourful birds fly among the branches, and strange insects crawl on the leaves. There are also big cats like jaguars, which are excellent hunters.
However, rainforests are in danger. 15 This is destroying the homes of many animals and plants. We need to protect the rainforests to keep our planet healthy.
A. This helps to keep the air clean and healthy for us to breathe.
B. They are full of life, with thousands of different plant and animal species.
C. People are cutting down trees for wood, farming, and building.
D. Some animal lovers become animal doctors.
E. They even prefer to work in the rainforest for a living.
F. Many animals live in the rainforest.

五、阅读表达(共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，计 10 分)
阅读短文，回答下面 5 个问题。
Boys and girls, do you often read stories about Chinese idioms (成语)?
The idiom caigao badou is a cool way to talk about a person who is really smart. It is said that the idiom comes from a story about a man called Cao Zhi. He was one of Cao Cao's sons during the Three Kingdoms. Cao Cao was a leader, but his son Cao Zhi wasn't. Cao Zhi was an amazing poet. His poems were like magic (魔法), painting pictures in your mind. Almost every Chinese knows his Seven Steps Poem.
Xie Lingyun was a famous poet who lived after Cao Zhi during the Northern and Southern dynasties. He was quite proud of his own writing, but also admired (欣赏) Cao Zhi's talent. He once said if all the smartness in the world was put into one dan, Cao Zhi would have eight out of ten! Xie felt he was worth (值得) one dou and the rest of the poets could find out how to share the last one.
In this story, they talk about dan and dou. In fact, dan and dou are old ways to measure (度量), like how we might measure rice in kilos. One dan has ten dou. So, saying some one has eight dou of talent is like saying they are super smart.
注：每题答案不超过 10 个词。
1. When did Cao Zhi live?
2. What was Cao Zhi good at doing?
3. What were Cao Zhi and Xie Lingyun according to the passage?
4. How many “dou” did Xie Lingyun think Cao Zhi had?
5. Do you like Cao Zhi's Seven Steps Poem? Why or why not?
