请阅读下面语篇，根据其内容回答问题。

If you have a chance to learn by yourself, what might you do? Perhaps you choose to practice football skills; you would prefer to discuss something together; and you might just read. This is the most important thing of “unschooling”. It is also known as “natural learning” or “independent learning”. For this kind of educational practice, people think differently. Here are their comments（意见）.

Know More Schooling is education that children receive at school. Home schooling is the practice of educating that children learn at home with a parent or a tutor. Unschooling is an educational practice that allows children to decide how, what and where they want to learn.

Agree Independent learning teaches children to be responsible for themselves. With no teacher around, children must manage themselves, and this is a really important skill for later life. Unschooling allows children to learn what they are really interested in. If learning is enjoyable, it’s more successful. Very young children learn in a natural way. Without being taught, they know colors and voices, they learn smiling and walking. Why shouldn’t people continue to learn like this? Unschooling gives children more time for sports, volunteering and museum or park visits. They may meet different people who share their interests.

Disagree Unschooling requires parents’ support and attention. They need to create a learning space that excites children and remind them of their daily routines. Teachers can push children to learn what they don’t enjoy but can be important later in life. Unschooling sounds too good to be true. It can be helpful when children are very young. But it puts too much pressure on children because they can learn difficult subjects easily only with teachers’ help. Unschooling happens at home, so children could have less contact with others at their age. This means they could end up becoming shy.

When deciding how you are going to learn, it’s necessary to think about which works. Choose what is suitable for you and what can have a positive influence on your growth.

For Emma, PE class was the most difficult part. She didn’t mind the tiredness but the looks her classmates gave her. Emma was bigger than others of her age. A group of students often ran behind her, laughing and talking about how Emma ran.

“Just one more year,” Emma kept telling herself, “One more year and I’ll graduate and won’t have to take this stupid PE class anymore.”

Technology is the first power!

It is a great joy and a matter of pride to see China’s high technology is brightly shining from the sky to the ground.

It is widely known that China has well-developed high-speed railway network（铁路网）in the world. Now, the country is breaking its own speed record with the CR450. The CR450 can travel at a top speed of 453 kilometers an hour. Once put into use, it will take just about 2.5 hours to travel from Beijing to Shanghai, which takes at least 4.5 hours at the moment. Even though it can travel so fast, it can also start braking（刹车）quickly, taking just 1.7 seconds, and its noise level keeps low. It creates a safe and comfortable environment for passengers. With the advantages, the CR450 shows China’s leading role and great power to the world.

The AG60E is China’s self-developed lightweight two-seat electric plane. It is 6.9 meters long, 2.6 meters high and 8.6 meters wide. It is mainly designed for pilot training, flight experience, and private travel. It uses an electric power system. Compared with the traditional plane, it doesn’t send out greenhouse gases, and its noise level is much lower. The AG60E electric plane draws the world’s attention, for it is a practice of China’s aviation industry（航空工业）towards air pollution. The AG60E is only a starting point. It is expected to become an important force to achieve green and low-carbon development in the field of aviation.

Dogs and cats are the most popular pets in the world. Some people think dogs are our finest friends. Others believe cats are our best pals. Let’s see who is perfect.

A. Who is smarter? B. Who talks more? C. Who senses better? D. Who is more social? E. Who has more sports talent?

（1）＿＿＿＿＿

Cats don’t use words, but they make a lot of sounds to tell what they’re thinking about. So do dogs. They use different sounds to “say” what’s on their minds, and “chat” with other dogs or their owners.

（2）＿＿＿＿＿

Cats are great climbers. They love to stay in trees and even on the top of houses. They can jump long and almost always land on their feet. Still, when it comes to traveling far, dogs are hard to beat. Some of them can run or work all day.

（3）＿＿＿＿＿

Dogs’ noses know better. They smell the air and get a lot more information than cats, for they have twice as many scent cells（细胞）as cats. But cats’ hearing is king. They can hear many sounds that dogs would never notice.

（4）＿＿＿＿＿

Most dogs like to hang out with other dogs. Most cats prefer to be alone. In order to get along, cats usually have to be raised together. Cats might like to be held in their owners’ arms, but they leave the pet parties to the dogs.

（5）＿＿＿＿＿

Dogs can be trained to follow different orders and do all kinds of tasks. They can help search for lost people. They can serve as guide dogs for blind people. Some can even help police officers to catch criminals. Cats can be trained to jump through hoops, catch toys and give high fives.

When a cat curls up on your lap, or a dog rubs your head or licks your face, you’ll know who the perfect pet is. Whichever one you own!

Born in a small village, I saw how busy farmers were in spring, and what the season meant to them. Spring is a time when the land wakes up from its long sleep, and the fields are ready for crops（庄稼）. If you are lazy in spring, you will get nothing in autumn. So, farmers seem to compete with time in spring.

When I was a little girl, every weekend I was busy planting crops. Whatever it was, I had fun and learned a lot. For example, when we planted potatoes, we needed to cut the sprouted（发芽的）potatoes into pieces and made sure every piece of “seed”（种子）had one or two sprouts. It was really like a math game.

Farm work is also teamwork. That’s why every spring field is busy with people of all ages working in it. While planting beans, my father dug small holes, and I carefully put some seeds into each hole. The work was hard and boring, but when we worked together, it seemed easier and more interesting.

I felt magic of life in spring as well. In a few weeks, the seeds sprouted, encouraging us to care for them by watering and so on. As time went by, they grew into healthy plants.

Because of these wonderful childhood experiences, I hold such a special feeling for spring.

（1）________ is the best season to plant crops.（仅填1词）

（2）If you don’t work hard in spring, you will ___________________.（不超过5词）

Spring Planting
Ideas or Feelings	Farm work

So far, China has successfully sent a large number of satellites（卫星）and spaceships into space. Space scientists have been greatly inspired（赋予灵感）by the old stories and ancient famous people when giving them names.

Since thousands of years ago, Chinese people have dreamed of going to the moon. Chang’e Flies to the Moon is one of the most popular stories. As you can see, China’s first man-made satellite to circle around the moon was named Chang’e I. More interestingly, the moon rover（巡视器）was named after the Jade Rabbit, who is the partner of Chang’e in the story. These old stories carry people’s best wishes and dreams. With the development of science and technology, our scientists have made them come true.

Kua Fu Runs After the Sun is another story to show how much ancient Chinese people wanted to know about the unknown world. Now, Kua Fu is going with the scientists to “visit” the sun, because we have a space project called KuaFu Mission.

Besides the ancient stories, space scientists also get ideas from ancient famous people. For example, Mozi, an ancient scientist, discovered that light travels in a straight line over 2, 000 years ago. His discovery made space study take a big step at that time. So, China’s first quantum（量子）science satellite was named Mozi, making China the first country in the world to achieve quantum communication between satellites and the ground.

From such simple things as giving names to the satellites, we can see how great our traditional culture is and what influence it has on our modern science and technology.

（1）In China, space scientists get ideas from ________ when naming satellites.

①old stories

②traditional projects

③ancient famous people

④ popular inventions

A．

①②

C．	By giving an example.	D．	By reporting a result.

（4）Which is the right structure of the passage?
