12."Serena,don't forget your promise to me that you will mow(割)Mrs.Martin's yard this weekend,"said Dad."Don't let me down."
Serena was the oldest child in the family,and one of her chores was to mow their yard.Mrs.Martin,their elderly neighbor,was unable to take care of her yard,so Serena's Dad had volunteered Serena for this job.Since Mrs.Martin's yard was not very big,Serena knew the job would go quickly.However,she still resented her dad's promise.
"Why didn't you ask me first?"Serena had complained.
"Did you ask me first when you volunteered me to be in the school festival last fall?"asked Serena's father.
"Well,no,I didn't ask you first,but you would have done those things anyway.You're always willing to help."
"I try when I can,"Dad answered."Serena,we have known Mrs.Martin for a very long time.She has often helped our family.Now we can do something for her.Besides,the feeling you get from helping someone makes you wonder who is really helping whom."
"I don't know,Dad,"said Serena."The only feeling I get from mowing our yard is tired."
"Just you wait and see,"said Dad.
After breakfast,Serena made her way to Mrs.Martin's yard.She was good at her job and soon had Mrs.Martin's yard looking tidy.Mrs.Martin came outside with a big glass of orange juice and offered it to her.Serena stopped her work and gratefully enjoyed the drink,while Mrs.Martin talked to her about all of the flowers in her yard.Seeing the joy in Mrs.Martin's eyes,Serena began to understand how much the yard meant to Mrs.Martin.
After finishing her drink,Serena returned to work with a new attitude.A warm feeling began to spread(蔓延) through her body.Her dad was right.It was hard to tell who was helping who!

20.Some people believe that a Robin Hood is at work,while others think that a wealthy person simply wants to distribute his or her fortune before dying.But the donator who started sending envelops with cashes to deserving causes,accompanied by an article from the local newspaper,has made a northern German city believe in fairytales.

7.Does your country have a national species?In early 2013,BBC Wildlife magazine held a poll to ask readers to select a symbol for the UK.There were 10species to choose from,including the badger,the red squirrel,the otter and the robin.And the winner,with over 3,849votes(about 40% of the total),was the hedgehog!
The hedgehog is a small mammal with quills(刺)on its body.ft weighs between 250and 550grams,eats mostly insects,and curls up into a little ball when it feels threatened.It'sanocturnal(夜間活動的)animal that can be found in parts of Europe,Asia and Africa.There are no hedgehogs native to Australia or the Americas.
The name"hedgehog"came into use around the year 1450.It comes from the Middle English"hegge"(meaning"hedge").a(chǎn)nd"hogge"(which means"hog").Sadly,hedgehog numhers are declining in Britain.They've almost halved over the past 20years to less than a million.
Some people were disappointed that there were so few insects on the list.But Ben Hoare,an editor of BBC Wildlife,had a different opinion.He said,‘'All the other insects are very important,but I'm not sure they make a good national symbol.Fur and feathers tend to win over creepy-crawlies(爬行類昆蟲).'
The hedgehog has long been popular in the UK.It's generally seen as a hard-working and friendly animal.And one of the characters from Beatrix Potter's books is a hedgehog called Mrs.Tiggy,Winkle.It's also popular with gardeners as it eats garden pests such as slugs and snails.
"Of course we consider them to be friendly because we see them in our gardens,"said Ben"And seeing all those hedgehogs run on the roads probably makes us even fonder of
them.

28.Why was-the hedgehog selected as a national symbol of the UK?D
A.It's good一looking.
B.It's rare in the UK.
C.It's endangered.
D.It's very popular.
29.Paragraph 2is mainly about the hedgehog'sA.
A.basic feature      
B.a(chǎn)ppearance         
C.eating habits       
D.weight
30.What is Ben Hoare's attitude towards hedgehog's victory?C
A.Doubtful.  
B.Disappointed.  
C.Supportive.  
D.Unsatisfied.
31.Mrs.Tiggy,Winkle might beB.
A.the name of a book     
B.a(chǎn) hedgehog       
C.a(chǎn) gardener         
D.a(chǎn) novelist.
