After all the performances ended, I waited for her at the gate.
"Hi!" She stood in front of me with a bag and her crystal high-heeled shoes in her hands, and dressed as she used to be, but the making-up still could be seen. I expressed     42  to her. "I knew it would be wonderful." She could not hide her    43  , laughing like a child. Her crystal shoes were shinning in the wonderful    44   night.

Why did the chicken cross the road? To get to the other side.
Most people know this joke. But recently, some people have been much more worried about how the grizzly bear and mountain lion can cross the road.
“Millions of animals die each year on U.S. roads,” the Federal Highway Administration reports. In fact, only about 80 ocelots, an endangered wild cat, exist in the U.S. today. The main reason? Roadkill.
“Eco-passages” may help animals cross the road without being hit by cars. They are paths both over and under roads. “These eco-passages can be extremely useful, so that wildlife can avoid road accidents,” said Jodi Hilty of the Wildlife Protection Society.
But do animals actually use the eco-passages?  The answer is yes. Paul Beier of Northern Arizona University found foot marks left by mountain lions on an eco-passage that went under a highway.  This showed that the lions used the passage.
Builders of eco-passages try to make them look like a natural part of an area by planting trees on and around them. Animals seem to be catching on. Animals as different as salamanders（火蜥蜴）and grizzly bears are using the bridges and underpasses.
The next time you visit a park or drive through an area with a lot of wildlife, look around.  You might see an animal overpass!
小題1: The writer uses the example of “ocelots” to show that __________.
A．wild animals have become more dangerous
B．the driving condition has improved greatly
C．a(chǎn)n increasing number of animals are killed in road accidents
D．the measure for protecting wildlife fails to work
小題2:From the story, we know an eco-passage is __________.
A．a(chǎn)n underground path for cars
B．a(chǎn) fence built for the safety of the area
C．a(chǎn) bridge for animals to get over a river
D．a(chǎn) path for animals to cross the road
小題3: When the writer says that “animals seem to be catching on” (Para. 6), he means __________.
A．a(chǎn)nimals begin to realize the dangers on the road
B．a(chǎn)nimals are crossing the road in groups
C．a(chǎn)nimals are increasing in number
D．a(chǎn)nimals begin to learn to use eco-passages
小題4: The writer asks visitors and drivers to look around when traveling because __________.
A．wild animals may attack carsB．they may see wild animals on eco-passages
C．they may see wild animals in the parkD．wild animals may jam the road
小題5: The best title for the passage is __________.
A．Special bridges help animals cross the road
B．Endangered animals increase because of roadkill
C．Animals fail to cross the road
D．Take steps to protect animals in danger

Britain’s seed bank, the only one in the world aiming to collect all of the planet’s wild plant species, has reached its goal of banking 10 percent by 2010.
The Millennium Seed Bank Project, run by Kew Gardens—one of the oldest botanical gardens—will officially deposit the 24,200th species on Thursday, a pink, wild banana from China.
More than 50 countries are now on board with Kew's giant task but vast places of the globe, including India and Brazil, still need to join in and donate seeds, director Paul Smith said.                                                                                                                                                            
The seed bank is one of the largest and most diverse in the world with more than 1.5 billion seeds. Its goal is to help protect the planet’s bio-diversity during a time of climate change.
The wild banana seed is under threat of extinction(滅絕) in southwest China from agricultural development. It is a vital food source for Asian elephants and important for growing bananas for human consumption.
Stored at minus-20 degrees centigrade, so they can last for thousands of years, the seeds await the day that scientists hope never comes—when the species no longer exist in the wild.
It is a race against time, Smith said, because in the last decade alone, 20 plants held in the bank have already been wiped out in the wild. He estimates that between a third and a quarter will become extinct this century.
"It is urgent and it is happening now. An area, the size of England, is cleared of primary vegetation（植被）every year." Smith said.
Because most of the world's food and medicines come from nature, protecting wild plant species is quite important, scientists say. There are already many other seed banks safeguarding food crops, which only account for 0.6 percent of plant diversity.
For Kew's next goal—to collect a quarter of wild varieties by 2020—the botanists need 10 million pounds a year, or a further 100 million pounds on top of the 40 million they have already been granted.
小題1:What’s the final purpose of the Britain’s seed bank?
A．To collect enough money for the project.B．To safeguard food crops.
C．To protect wild plants from extinction.D．To help scientists study wild plants.
小題2:The wild banana seed in China is in danger because of _______.
A．the expanding of farming workB．the climate change in this area
C．the large number of Asian elephantsD．human’s large consumption
小題3: We can learn from the passage that _______.
A．the seeds in the bank can be used now and then all over the world
B．India and Brazil haven’t joined in the Seed Bank Project at present
C．there is only one seed bank in the world at present
D．the wild plants in places like India and China will never die out
小題4: What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 7 refer to?
A．The extinction of plant species.B．The Millennium Seed Bank Project.
C．Britain’s seed bank.D．Kew Gardens’ next goal.
小題5:Which of the following information isn’t mentioned in the passage?
A．The global partnership of collecting wild plant species.
B．The temperature condition of the conservative wild plant species.
C．The government’s financial support for the seed bank project.
D．Scientists’ concern on the extinct wild plant species.

Reading poems is not exactly an everyday activity for most people. In fact, many people never read a poem once they get out of high school.
It is worth reminding ourselves that this has not always been the case in America. In the nineteenth century, a usual American activity was to sit around the fireplace in the evening and read poems aloud. It is true that there was no television at the time, nor movie theatres, nor World Wide Web, to provide diversion. However, poems were a source of pleasure, of self-education, of connection to other people or to the world beyond one’s own community. Reading them was a social act as well as an individual one, and perhaps even more social than individual. Writing poems to share with friends and relations was, like reading poems by the fireside, another way in which poetry had a place in everyday life.
How did things change? Why are most Americans no longer comfortable with poetry, and why do most people today think that a poem has nothing to tell them and they can do well without poems?
There are, I believe, three culprits (肇事者): poets, teachers and we ourselves. Of these, the least important is the third: the world surrounding the poem has betrayed (背叛) us more than we have betrayed the poem. Early in the twentieth century, poetry in English headed into directions hostile (不利的) to the reading of poetry. Readers decided that poems were not for the fireside or the easy chair at night, that they belonged where other difficult-to-read things belonged.
Poets failed the readers, so did the teachers. They want their students to know something about the craft (技巧) of a poem, and they want their students to see that poems mean something. Yet what usually occurs when teachers push these concerns on their high school students is that young people decide poems are unpleasant crossword puzzles.
小題1: Reading poems is thought to be a social act in the nineteenth century because _______.
A．it built a link among peopleB．it helped unite a community
C．it was a source of self-educationD．it was a source of pleasure
小題2:The underlined word “diversion” in Paragraph 2 most probably means _______.
A．diversityB．change C．a(chǎn)musementsD．happiness
小題3:In the last paragraph, the writer questions _______.
A．the difficulty in studying poems
B．the way poems are taught in school
C．students’ wrong ideas about poetry
D．the techniques used in writing poems
小題4:According to the passage, what is the main cause of the great gap between readers and poetry?
A．Poems have become difficult to understand.
B．Students are poorly educated in high school.
C．TV and the Internet are more attractive than poetry.
D．Students are becoming less interested in poetry.

Adult butterflies use their senses of sight, touch, hearing, smell, and taste to survive in the world, find food and mates, lay eggs in an appropriate place, migrate, and avoid hungry predators.
Sight
Butterflies have large, compound (multifaceted) eyes, which allow them to see in all directions without turning their heads. Like most insects, butterflies are very nearsighted, so they are more attracted to a large stand of flowers rather than individual plants. Butterflies do not "see" colors such as red, green, and yellow, but sense polarized（偏振的） light, which indicates the direction the sun is shining, as well as ultraviolet light, which is present on many flowers and guides butterflies to nectar （花蜜）sources.
Smell
Butterflies have a very well-developed sense of smell, but it's not in their nose (since they don't have one). Sense receptors located in their antennae, feet, and many other parts of the body help butterflies find food (usually flower nectar), and mates (the female smells the male's pheromones).
Taste
Butterfly's feet have sense organs that can taste the sugar in nectar, letting the butterfly know if something is good to eat or not. Some females also taste host plants in order to find appropriate places to lay their eggs. Adult butterflies and moths feed using a proboscis, a long, coiled tube. Butterflies force blood into the tube to straighten it out, allowing them to feed. Butterflies get all their food from this tube.
Hearing
Butterflies don't have ears. Instead they "hear" sounds through their wings by sensing changes in sound vibrations.
Butterflies may possess senses we don't even know about yet because their anatomy is very different than ours, and therefore difficult to understand when perceived through our own human senses.
小題1:From the passage we can know that butterflies can see_____
A．thing behind themB．thing in the distance
C．most bright colorsD．flower nectar from a distance
小題2: Butterflies can easily find food resources by using their______.
A．sense organs of sight and smellB．sense organs of sight and taste
C．sense organs of smell and hearingD．sense organs of smell and taste
小題3: How do butterflies feed themselves?
A．by using their feetB．by using a tube.
C．by using sense receptorsD．by using their wings.
小題4:What is the passage mainly about?
A．The food sources of butterflies.B．The habits of butterflies.
C．The unusual body of butterflies.D．the sense of butterflies.

Ordinary foods contain specific vaccines. With the berries in their mouths, the kids head for the front door.
It’s time for you to go to work. Your car checks your fingerprints and unlocks the doors. “My office. Autopilot,” you command. Your car drives itself down the road and moves smoothly into traffic on the highway. You sit back and unroll your e-newspaper. The latest news downloads and fills the viewer.

   How men first learnt to invent words is unknown; in other words, the origin of language is a mystery． All we really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thoughts and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other; and that later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters． These letters could be combined to represent those sounds, and which could be written down． Those sounds, whether spoken, or written in letters, we call words．

I sometimes wonder if old Finchley has the right personality to be a research scientist. He keeps asking when he’ll be coming back. After all, it was his own fault. Nobody tries out what has just been invented on themselves any more but Finchley. Well, he must have pumped about a thousand c. c. s into himself before I noticed he was clearly becoming smaller.
It was funny watching him, because his clothes remained the same in size. They simply piled up around him so that he looked like a small boy in his father’s clothes. But he kept getting smaller and smaller. As my colleague Dawson and I watched him, he disappeared! All we could see was Finchley’s clothes on the floor. They looked so strange, because the lab coat was on top, shirt and trousers inside and, I suppose, underclothes inside again. It gave me a strange feeling, and I think Dawson was a bit shaken, too.
Dawson was sitting on his chair in front of a microscope he’d been using to examine a family of mites(螨蟲). He looked through the scope kind of absently again, and was nearly scared to lose awareness when he found old Finchley waving back from the other end.
It seems as if Finchley had taken a free ride on a dust mite and landed on the land of the mite family. Of course, we didn’t know till Finchley told us later. But anyhow, as I said, Dawson nearly passed out. He jumped off his chair and pointed at the microscope, to shocked to speak.
小題1:Finchley disappeared because ________.
A．he took something poisonous
B．he was changed into a dust mite
C．his father’s clothes totally covered him up
D．what he and his colleagues invented resulted in his disappearace
小題2: It frightened Dawson to see Finchley _______.
A．got into his scope by accidentB．was waving through his telescope
C．suddenly got lost in his clothesD．gradually disappeared in the lab
小題3: It can be inferred that Finchley, Dawson and the writer have possibly invented _____.
A．some kind of medicineB．a(chǎn) new powerful microscope
C．a(chǎn) machine to make people smallD．a(chǎn) new way to make a culture of mite
小題4: It can probably be concluded that Finchley ________.
A．passed out there and thenB．is not fit to be a scientist
C．is a devoted scientistD．will remain tiny all the time
