It is the year 3000. I come to a place where I can’t see any water, plants or animals but black clouds in the sky and sand everywhere. It’s very dry so I drink some water that I carry with me. A native sees what I do and asks “What is it?” I pour some water and tell him it’s called water. “Oh, I’m so lucky that I can see water!” the man shouts in an excited voice. “You have never seen water? But how can you live without water?” I ask.
“Harry, get up, it is 7 o’clock, or you will be late!” a voice comes to my ears. “Oh! What a strange dream I dreamed just now!”
In class, I always think of that dream. And I also think of the fresh air, clean water, blue sky, green plants and animals in our world nowadays. How beautiful our life is!
But in order to make more money, people have built more and more factories. These factories send out waste smoke and water with chemicals which are harmful to the environment. The pollution is becoming worse and worse, and as a result, some animals and plants die out. With the development of agriculture, farmers spray aerosol (喷雾) and fertilizer, which also pollute the water and air. In the street the cars and buses are sending out heavy smoke which pollutes the air badly. Even tourism is harmful to the environment. When some tourists travel somewhere, they throw the plastic bags and rubbish onto the ground.
These behaviors are polluting the environment and the environment will become the greatest problem of the world. We shouldn’t pollute the environment any more. Otherwise more and more animals and plants will disappear. And maybe my dream will come true in the future.

According to some researchers, you should not praise children for everything that they do. It does not help them build self-confidence.
Most parents and teachers agree that praise can help increase children's self-confidence-the more, the better. However, according to some researchers, only proper praise is good for children. If adults praise everything children do, it makes children look for praise all the time, not trying to do their best. "Teachers should not say things like 'good job 'or 'nice work' whenever a child does anything. They should encourage them to continue to improve,” some researchers advise.
Another idea is that children with high self-confidence are happier, and do better at school. About this, Marshall Duke, a researcher in children, says, "High self-confidence brought in by too much praise does not make children happier, get more, or become able to do more. Finding a child's advantages and developing them can help build confidence more than too much praise can." Praise also loses its effect if it is given equally to all students.
"It's important to tell children the truth about what they've done. Honest feedback（反馈）is far better than empty praise," Duke adds. "People have got into the habit of not telling children when they’re wrong. That makes it hard for them to deal with difficulties when they grow up. That's just how the world is."

3.Which of the following is TRUE, according to the passage?
A.Praise makes children become successful.
B.Children don't know what they’re really good at.
C.The same praise for all children has no meaning.

5.What is the last paragraph about?
A.It's important to have the habit of praising children.

I hardly have any good memories of my summer holidays two years ago. All I can remember is that I was busy doing drugs with my friends for most of the time. I said to myself that I would give up drugs before I went back to school，but when school started I was still addicted to them.
I went back to school like the other students but I had become a very different person. Most students came back to school with smiles on their faces，but not me. I became a different person that didn't care about anything but drugs. It was like I was walking around in a different body.
I went from being an above average student to a really bad student. I started to do things that I never thought I would do before -like bullying（恐吓）students，and fighting with people just because they looked at me in the wrong way. I rarely smiled or played sports like I used to. I was always moody and angry with my friends and teachers. I started to skip school（逃学）once or twice a week. No one seemed to care，so I was soon absent nearly everyday. I started stealing money from my parents and I lied to other people just to get some money for drugs. When my parents found out that I stole their money and sold their jewellery, they got really angry. I started to hang out with my drug addict friends for days and nights without going back home. I even slept by the side of the road and woke up without caring what people would think about me.
Now I have changed a lot. Drugs are terrible. Stay away from them.
