In this activity, children will take a closer look at leaves and find out more about leaf characteristics and how leaves can be used to identify plants.
Next time you are in a forest, you can collect leaves of different shapes, sizes, and colors on the ground. Ask these questions:
What differences and similarities can you see
What do the leaves feel like Do they have hairs Or teeth
Can you find the tree that each leaf came from
Explain that leaves can be used to identify trees. Use a field guide to identify a tree. Find a leaf from that tree, and compare the leaf in the field guide to the real-life leaf you found on the ground. How many other trees can you find with this same type of leaf
The edges or margins (边缘) of leaves can give us clues to the tree’s identity.
Another characteristic to identify a tree is the way its leaves grow on the twigs (嫩枝). Even needle leaves grow in patterns. For example, leaves on pines may grow in clusters (簇) of two, three, or more.
Now, make prints of the leaves you collect. To make a leaf crayon rubbing, place a leaf on a smooth and hard surface, vein (叶脉) side up, and cover it with a piece of paper. Rub a crayon back and forth across the paper, directly above the leaf. What do you see What will appear on the paper as you rub
21. Children look at leaves and they can tell ________.
① what leaves look like ② how old the tree is
③ which tree the leaves come from ④ the weather in the future
A. ①② B. ②③ C. ①③ D. ①④
22. What can children take with them in order to identify trees
A. A new camera. B. A small knife. C. A field guide. D. A city map.
23. To identify a pine, we can look at ________.
A. the margins of its leaves B. the way its leaves grow C. the sizes of its leaves D. where the tree lives
24. After making prints of a leaf, you can ________.
A. know where to buy a leaf crayon B. tell how to identify a tree
C. guess where you collect the leaf D. see the leaf’s margin and veins on a paper
25. Which is the best title for the passage

Something has been washed up on the beaches of Cornwall, England for the last 17 years. Some may call it treasure, but everyone calls it Lego (乐高积木)! That’s right—Lego pieces have been washed up on beaches since 1997!
On February 13, 1997, a shipping container filled with close to 5 million Lego pieces was thrown into the sea when the New York bound ship carrying it was hit by a huge wave. Sixty-one other containers were also thrown into the sea.
British writer Tracey William set up a Facebook page to show Lego discoveries and share them with the world. She also set up a beach-cleaning group, which encourages Lego fans to help keep beaches clean.
“These days we’ve found some pieces of octopuses or dragons on the beach,” Williams said. “I only know three octopuses have been found, and one was by me. It’s quite interesting. If you heard that your neighbor had found a green dragon, you’d want to go out and find one yourself.”
So far the pieces have only washed up on UK shores. About 3.2 million of the 4.8 million pieces were light enough to stay on the sea water. There is no way to know how many of them have been collected over the last 17 years.
“If you look at the washed-up Lego, it looks perfect, like it’s just come out of the box,” said Tracey. “Plastic in the sea is not going to just decompose (分解) and go away. So treasure searchers are being encouraged to take home any pieces they may find so that they don’t get washed back out into the ocean!”
26. What have been washed up on beaches in the last 17 years
A. Some fish. B. Some Lego pieces.
C. Some pieces of paper. D. Some pieces of octopuses.
27. How many shipping containers were thrown into the sea
A. Only one container. B. Five million containers. C. Sixty-two containers. D. Seventeen containers.
28. In Williams’ opinion, it’s ________ to find Lego pieces on the beach.
A. interesting B. difficult C. dangerous D. impossible
29. Which of the following is true
A. The Lego pieces have washed on many beaches in the world.
B. We don’t know how many of the pieces have been collected.
C. All the Lego pieces are light enough to stay on the sea water.
D. About 3.2 million pieces have been collected in the past years.
30. In the last paragraph, Tracy agrees that ________.
A. it’s good to take the plastic pieces home from the sea
B. it’s good to let the Lego pieces keep staying on the sea
C. it’s impossible to find all the Lego pieces in the sea
D. plastic pieces in the sea usually go away very soon
