15.A Long Time to Wait
  Rob tapped his foot on the ground impatiently (不耐烦地). His friend, Steve, should meet him in five minutes. They were going to meet and watch a movie together, and Rob didn't want to miss a single minute of the show.
  Both of them really liked (1)       and tried to see one almost every week, but lately Steve had been arriving later and later. Rob complained about late friends in a low voice while he waited.
  Rob began pacing (踱步) back and forth. When pacing didn't (2)       him, he started to look at his watch from time to time. There were only three minutes left before he went in without his friend, Rob decided. Pacing was making him more impatient.

16.KIDS IN CHARGE
  Four young people got an early start inventing new things or creating their own businesses. They show us that it's never too early to follow our dreams.
LAVT Web
Laima Tazmln
Laima Tazmin borrowed her older brother's computer books and began creating Web sites for fun when she was 7 years old. Her hobby became a business idea in the third grade. From Laima's home office, she makes Web sites for small-business owners and artists now. 
Shay's Bones and Biscuits
Shay Hammond
Since starting her own business at age 11, Shay Hammond has attracted many customers. Shay sells homemade dog treats and also takes orders online. In three years Shay's company has grown. It earned about ﹩200 last year. 
ProPedder Kustoms
Buddy Dillenberg
Buddy Dillenberg saved enough money to buy a car when he turned 16. Instead, he bought a machine and started his own business. Buddy makes cool add-ons for his friends' scooters, called Go-Peels. He also sold his scooter parts online.
 
Over the Edge Wheelchair Lift
Christopher Whetzel
Christopher Whetzel, 12, has found another kind of success. Unlike the others, he hasn't started his own business. But like them, he has done something great. He made something to help those who are in wheelchairs to get back up and he won ﹩10,000 for his great idea.
 
17.  REACHING FOR THE SKY
  In 2007, Barrington Irving became the youngest person to fly solo (独自) around the world. He was just 23 years old. How did the young man achieve this?
  A PASSION FOR FLYING
  A turning point happened when he was 15. Irving was working in Miami, Florida. One of the store's customers was Gary Robinson, a professional pilot. One day, Robinson asked Irving if he was interested in flying. The next day, the pilot took Irving to an airport and showed Irving inside the cockpit of a Boeing 777. That experience changed Irving's life.
  Irving was determined to fly. To reach his dream, he worked different jobs. He washed airplanes and cleaned swimming pools. He also helped at a store. At home, he practiced his flying skills on a video game. Finally, he earned enough money for flight school.
  CIRCLING THE WORLD
  At flight school, Irving achieved his first dream — he learned how to fly. His next dream was bigger. He planned to build his own plane and fly solo around the world. On March 23, 2007, Irving began his round — the world trip. After 97 days — with 145 hours in the air — he landed back in Miami. Irving achieved his dream once again.
  SHARING THE DREAM
  When he landed, Irving saw many young people in the cheering crowd. This gave him an idea: "I had no money, but I was determined to give back with my time, knowledge and experience." Irving decided to start a program called "Experience Aviation." The program helps young people achieve their career dreams in aviation (航空) and science.
  "Everyone told me what I couldn't do," says Irving. "They said I was too young, that I didn't have enough money, experience, strength, or knowledge. But even if no one believes in your dream," he says, "you have to, for it."
18.Bags of Fun Bring Smiles to Hospitalized Kids
  In the weeks after 6-year-old Gabby Krause lost her battle with brain cancer in 2004, her mother and a close friend fought through tears as they discussed the best way to honor the little girl.
  Out of that conversation — and previous encouragement from Gabby herself-Bags of Fun was born. It provides to children with life-threatening illnesses the very thing that made chemotherapy and radiation treatment (化疗) a little easier on Gabby: bag full of toys, books, electronic devices (电子设备) and games to pass the time.
  "The bag" was something her family brought along from the beginning of her 19-month battle, and Gabby voiced her wish to bring the same joy to the kids around her after realizing that most patients at the Children's Hospital didn't have a bag of fun. It is a symbol of her selfless spirit.
  "The bags are tailored to age and gender (性别), but the two mast common things are an electronic device and noise putty that makes sounds that bring laughter to children", said Solomon, a volunteer for the organization. In all, there are usually between 14 — 18 things in each bag to help pass the hard time. "It's mostly about the power of play, what it's able to do for these kids who are sitting in a hospital worrying about what's going on, when the next needle poke or test is coming." said Solomon, who adds there is strong evidence to suggest the activities reduce stress on patients and their parents.
  A bag of fun, brought to Maelle Hicks on her first clay of treatment at the Children's Hospital in July 2014, had such a great effect that she and her family continue to volunteer and raise money for the organization, long after she left hospital. Her mother says Bags of Fun was a complete surprise to everyone, and Maelle will never forget it.
  The scope (范围) of Bags of Fun has gotten bigger since its beginning. Bags were first given to cancer patients, but now all children affected by a life-threatening condition are able to benefit from Bags of Fun.
19.
weather (n.) live (v.) sets (v.) warmest (adj.) 

  Greenland is a huge island in the far, far north of the world. The (1)             there is very harsh (恶劣的) and cold. Even the "hottest" summer day on Greenland is like a cool winter day in England. In the summer months, the sun never (2)            ; it is light all through the night. The (3)             part of the island is on the south coast and that is where most Greenlanders live. However, it is still very hard place to (4)             because of the cold. Over the years, different groups of people have tried to live in Greenland, but most found it too cold.
20.Butterflies at Risk
  What's causing problems for these beautiful insects?
  Something is harming the monarchs. One of the largest butterflies in North America, monarchs are famous for their long migrations (迁徙) covering thousands of miles. Yet the number of monarchs is dropping. Bad weather conditions, putting the butterfly population in danger. Some butterfly experts say that the number of monarch butterflies has been cut by 25 percent. In recent years, unusually cold temperatures and rain have caused monarchs to die in large numbers. These conditions have also caused new butterflies not to hatch (孵化).
  Will they return?
  Monarchs are very sensitive (敏感的) to change because of the long distances they travel. They cover thousands of miles each year, flying between their winter homes in Mexico or Southern California and their summer homes in the Midwest. Other animals also migrate. And many travel much farther. A bird called the Arctic tern goes round trip between the Arctic and the Antarctic every year. Like the Arctic tern, a type of gray whale has a long migration. It travels 12,400 miles from Baia California in Mexico to waters off Alaska and back. The longest migration ever recorded is by the sooty shearwater. Every year this bird flies 40, 000 miles from New Zealand to the northern part of the Pacific Ocean to find food.
  The monarchs don't travel as far as animals like the Arctic tern and the sooty shearwater, but their journey isn't safe. Every year as many as 100 million monarch butterflies leave Mexico for the first leg of the migration. It's hard to imagine that such a large number might be in danger. Yet many scientists tell us that the danger is very real.
  In Mexico people are destroying the natural environment. They cut down the trees where millions of monarchs, spend the winter and use chemicals to kill the milkweed, the monarch's favourite food. Monarchs spend the winter in Mexico and California. In both places, development is destroying these winter homes. Unless steps are taken to protect their habitats, the monarchs' migration could become a thing of the past.
  "If we lose the whole migration, we lose one of the nation's most magnificent phenomena," said Chip Taylor, a professor at the University of Kansas. These butterflies are the symbol of richness of biological diversity (生物多样性).

(1)Are monarch butterflies famous for their long migrations?
                                                                                
(2)What are putting the butterfly population in danger?
                                                                                
(3)Where are monarchs' winter homes?
                                                                                
(4)In Paragraph 2, what animal has the longest migration?
                                                                                
(5)What can people do to protect monarch butterflies?
                                                                                
21.你最好运动前热身。(had better, before exercise)
      
22.我昨天累得不想说话。(tired, too ...to)
      
23.保护野生动物很重要。(important, protect)
      
24.修建大兴机场花费了五年时间。(Daxing International Airport, take, build)
      
25.根据中文和英文提示, 完成一篇不少于50词的文段写作。 文中已给出内容不记入总词数,所给提示词语仅供选用。
