Once a baby cries, the parents will go to see what happened as soon as possible. According to a new study, a baby’s cry can make adults react very quickly, even if they are not related(相關的).
Oxford University researchers used a game called Whack-a-mole for the study. The game needs people to hit one buttons(按鈕). The players must react as quickly as they can to hit the button that lights up at random(隨機的). It is a game that requires speed and accuracy(準確度).
The study included 40 men and women volunteers aged 19 to 59. Some of them had sons or daughters but none had a baby at the time. They played whack-a-mole after listening to different sounds, including babies’ crying, the crying of adults in trouble and birds’ song that sounds like babies’ crying.
The volunteer’ scores  were higher after listening to the sound of crying babies. Men and women had similar scores. The results showed that a crying baby gets special attention.
“Few sounds make people react quite like the cry of a baby,” said Morten Kringelbach of Oxford’s psychiatry department, who led the study.
He added that a baby’s cry can increase adults’ heart rate and blood pressure. This is understandable, because in the course of human evolution(進化), taking care of babies has always been an important job for adults. When a baby is hungry or feeling bored or unwell, it will cry. As a result, human brains and bodies develop a special reaction to a baby’s cry.
小題1:According to the passage, how many volunteers took part in the study?
A．80B．40 C．19D．59
小題2:In the passage, the underlined word react means__________.
A．表演B．打擊C．反應D．演示
小題3:The game “whack-a-mole” shows__________.
A．a baby’s cry can get special attention from adults
B．men and women have different reaction speed and accuracy
C．adults without babies react more quickly to a baby’s cry
D．women react to a baby’s cry more quickly than men
小題4:According to the passage, a baby’s cry__________.
A．can get the same attention from adults as the birds’ song
B．is the noisiest sound
C．can increase adults’ heart rate and blood pressure
D．is good for its health
小題5:From the last paragraph, we learn that_________.
A．taking care of the younger babies was the most important thing in the past
B．human brains and bodies have developed to take care of babies
C．baby cries are a good way make adults react quickly
D．baby cries have developed a lot during the course of human evolution

A big, mighty(高大的) tree stood in a forest. Its branches(樹枝) spread out and its roots (根) went deep in the earth. A lot of people came here to have a rest under it. And a lot of birds stood on its branches to sing and dance. The big tree was very proud all the time.
At the foot of the tree, there was a little plant. The plant was thin, and seemed to be blown down by any of a little wind.
One day, the two neighbors were having a little chat.
“Well, little one,” said the tree to the plant, “why not put your feet deeply in the earth, and raise your head high in the air as I do?”
“I see there is no need to do so,” said the plant with a smile. “In fact, I think I may be safer in this way.”
“Safer?” said the tree. “Are you safer than I am? Do you know how deep my roots are in the earth and how strong my branches are? Who can possibly pull me out by the roots or bow my head to the ground?” And the tree didn’t want to say anything to the weak plant.
But the tree was to regret its words very soon. One evening, a great hurricane(颶風) came. It blew the trees off their roots and almost destroyed the forest completely. It uprooted（將……連根拔起）the mighty tree and blew it away with great force.
When the storm had gone, the villagers living nearby came to check the damage. The mighty tree lay on the ground, but the little plant still stood there.
小題1:Who was the big tree’s neighbor?
A．People.B．Birds.C．A little plant.D．Branches.
小題2:Why was the big tree proud before its neighbor?
A．Because a lot of people came to have a rest under it.
B．Because it was tall and thick.
C．Because a lot of birds stood on its branches to sing and dance.
D．All of the above.
小題3:Why didn’t the big tree want to say anything to the little plant?
A．Because the big tree was tired.
B．Because the little plant knew less than the big tree.
C．Because the strong wind came.
D．Because the big tree looked down upon(看不起)the little plant.
小題4:What did the villagers living nearby see after the hurricane had gone?
A．They saw the forest was flooded.
B．They saw the big tree lying on the ground.
C．They saw the big tree was still mighty.

Have you felt annoyed when a cell phone (手機)rings during the class? Something must be done to stop this. Now in New York City, USA, a rule is carried out（執(zhí)行） in schools. Students can’t even bring cell phones to school. Is it a good thing or not?
Anxious（焦慮的） parents say that cell phones are an important tool in holding New York City’s families together.
“I worry about it,” said Elizabeth Lorris Ritter, a mother of a middle school kid. “It’s necessary in our everyday life. We have a washing machine, we have running water, and we have cell phones.”
A number of Americans think cell phones connect them to children on buses, getting out from subways, walking through unknown places.
“I have her call me when she gets out school,” said Lindsay Walt, a schoolgirl’s mother. “No one in New York is going to let their children go to school without a cell phone.
What about the cell phone owners, the students? Most of the students said that cell phones were necessary and the cell phone was like an extra(額外的)hand or foot for them.
“I feel so empty,” said May Chom, 14. “There is also no way to listen to music on the way to school without my phone. It will be a really, really boring trip.”
小題1:. Elizabeth Lorris Ritter is worried that ______________.
A．students are not allowed to bring cellphones
B．students spend too much time in listening to music on the cellphones
