• 2．It's a warm June afternoon，and in a group of bushes and trees，a bird sings.A small insect climbs over a leaf.The Muziekplein forest，next to an 18-storey building and a railway line，is about the size of a basketball court：before it was planted in 2018，the area was a parking place.The forest is one of seven such extremely small forests in the Dutch city of Utrecht，and 144 across the Netherlands.By the end of this year，according to IVN Nature Education，the organization proposing the country's initiative，there will be 200.
     Since the first forest was planted in the Netherlands in 2015，the concept has become popular.Daan Bleichrodt，who launched IVN's Tiny Forest initiative with the goal of making it easier for children to get into and connect with nature，said that he thinks it is popular because people are becoming more aware of major environmental challenges.Its a very practical way to do something positive in the light of climate change and loss of biodiversity.
     Jeroen Schenkels，a senior adviser for the city of Utrecht on green planning.jye.ai he sees the mini-forests as nature-based approaches that are able to help the city weather heat waves and improve water retention（保持）.But one of the biggest interests is social. "One of the most important things is that they give people the opportunity to be involved in nature in the neighborhood，" Schenkels said.
     Between 2018 and 2020，40 different plant and animal groups and 121 total animal species were found in the Muziekplein forest alone.According to Wageningen University researchers，across the 11 tiny forests in their study，volunteers observed 636 animal species.They also identified 298 plant species in addition to the original species planted in the plots.Maintenance of the forests occasionally involves removing aggressive weeds，but in general new plant species，such as wild flowers that appear，are allowed to grow.

  B．It sits in an urban area.

• 3．It looked just like another aircraft from the outside.The pilot told his young passengers that it was built in 1964，a Boeing KC-135 refuelling tanker，based on the 707.But appearances were deceptive，and the 13 students from Europe and USA who boarded the aircraft were in for the flight of their lives.
     For 12 months，science students from across the continents had competed to win a place on the flight at the invitation of the European Space Agency.The challenge had been to suggest imaginative experiments to be conducted in weightless conditions.
     For the next two hours the Boeings flight resembled that of an enormous bird which had lost its reason，shooting upwards towards the heavens before moving down towards Earth.The intention was to achieve weightlessness for a few seconds.
     The aircraft took off smoothly enough，but any feelings that I and the young scientists had that we were on anything like a scheduled passenger service were quickly dismissed when the pilot put the plane into a 45-degree climb which lasted around 20 seconds.Then the engines cut out and we became weightless.Everything became confused，and left or right，up or down no longer had any meaning.After ten seconds of free-fall descent （下降） the pilot pulled aircraft out of its nosedive.The return of gravity was less immediate than its loss，but it was still sudden enough to ensure that some students came down with a bump.
     Each time the pilot cut the engines and we became weightless，a new team conducted its experiment.First it was the Dutch，who wanted to discover why cats always land on their feet.Then it was the German team，who conducted a successful experiment on a traditional building method to see if it could be used for building a future space station.The Americans had an idea to create solar sails that could be used by satellites.
     After two hours of going up and down in the plane doing experiments，the dominant feeling was one of excitement rather than sickness.Most of the students thought it was an unforgettable experience and one that would be keen to repeat.
  
  （1）What did the pilot do with the plane？

  
  A．He climbed and then made the plane fall slowly.
  B．He climbed and then made the plane turn over.
  C．He quickly climbed and then stopped the engines.
  D．He took off normally and then cut the engines for 20 seconds.
  （2）What was the point of being weightless？

  
  A．To show the judges of the competition what they could do.
  B．To prepare the young scientists for future work in space.
  C．To see what conditions are like in space.
  D．To allow the teams to try out their ideas.
  （3）The pronoun "it" （in the last paragraph） refers to

  .
  A．the excitement
  B．the trip
  C．the opportunity
  D．the plane
  （4）The passage is intended to

  .
  A．report on a new scientific technique
  B．encourage young people to take science
  C．show scientists what young people can do
  D．describe the outcome of a scientific competition

      I have been in the teaching profession more than thirty years，and one of the best teachers I have ever known was Mr Rowe.I was lucky enough to co-teach fourth grade with him.Mr Rowe had infinite patience and understanding and I learned so much from him.He could perform miracles，like the one he performed with Steven，one of the unhappiest kids I had ever seen.Steven couldn't stand school.He didn't like the kids who raised their hands and knew all the answers，and most importantly，he didn't like himself.
      The first day he walked into Mr Rowe's classroom，he ignored the other students，looking angry and annoyed，and slid into his chair，knocking a couple of textbooks onto the floor.Mr Rowe walked over to him and touched Steven's shoulder，but Steven pulled away.Nevertheless，Mr Rowe welcomed him， "Hi，Steven.I'm happy you are in my class.We are gonna have a great year." Steven looked around the room as if Mr Rowe must be mistaken.No teacher in his right mind would want Steven to be part of his classroom.So，while Mr Rowe seemed cheerful and relaxed that day of school，it seemed that Steven was angry and confused.
      That day after class，Mr Rowe chose Steven to pitch the kickball at recess. "Hey，Steven，" Mr Rowe commented， "You are good at pitching things.Let me show you my secret trick." Mr Rowe taught Steven one of the tricks that not a single kid could perform.Steven learned fast and did quite well!Everyone cheered for him.
      After the kickball，Steven sat as close to Mr Rowe in class as he could.When a question was asked，Steven lit up；he knew the answer!He raised his hands.When he answered the question，his voice shook.However，he got the right answer!He said，with Mr Rowe，his days of fourth grade promised wonderful.
      That is not to say that every day went smoothly，but it was evident that Steven grew to love Mr Rowe more and more with each passing day.
  Paragraph 1：
  Time passed quickly that year，and before we all knew it，it was the last day of school.
    Paragraph 2：
  Many years later，Mr Rowe and I were surprised.
