题目内容

You’re on the school bus. But as soon as you turn the corner, you find yourself at the end of a very long queue. It’s another traffic jam! It is stop-start for the rest of your journey. Meanwhile, at the same time in Antarctica(南极洲), snow covers the land. A group of emperor penguins crowd together to keep warm, using stop-and-go movements to protect themselves from the winds. Can you see the connection?
Emperor penguins move like cars in traffic jams to keep warm, that’s according to new research by the Alfred Wegener Institute, Helmholtz Center for Polar and Marina Research in Germany. A penguin only needs to move 2cm in any direction for its neighbor to do the same thing. These movements then flow(流动) through the whole group of penguins like a “traveling wave”.
These waves also help smaller crowds join bigger groups, keeping more and more of their friends warm. A single Antarctic “traffic jam” has thousands of penguins. Interestingly, the technology used for studying road traffic jams was used to study the penguins. This included studying time-lapse(延时) videos. Scientists also discovered that unlike on the road, these waves can be made by any penguin and in any direction.
With temperatures usually dropping below –50℃, and winds reaching speeds of up to 200km/h, these traveling waves are very important for penguins to keep warm.
These penguins can also teach us a lesson. In big groups, they learn to be orderly and patient, and to never crash into each other. These are skills we should all learn from them when we are on the road!

小题4:If a penguin is in a group, it _____.

A．needs to move orderly	B．can move as fast as it likes
C．will not leave others behind	D．should move as slowly as it can

A．penguins won’t move together if it is not very cold

B．traffic jams happen probably because people are impatient

C．penguins learn their skills from human beings

D．penguins are likely to crash into each other in a group

小题1:C
小题2:B
小题3:C
小题4:A
小题5:C

Now the boy is eating his ice cream.
“I will go out _____ a newspaper.” the man says and leaves. After the boy eats his ice cream up, he _______ and goes to the door.

That day was like any other day in his life. After school Michael walked past the shop in the street corner. He stopped to some shoes, and he felt sorry for himself. He wanted to have a pair of shoes for his birthday. He walked away sadly and thought of what to tell his mother. He knew she would give him if she could. But he also knew very well she had money. He decided not to go home , as he looked worried and his mother would notice it. So he went to the park and sat down on the grass. Then he saw a boy in a wheel chair. He noticed that the boy moved the wheels with his hands. Michael looked at him carefully and was to see that the boy had no feet. He looked at his own feet. “It is better to be without shoes than feet.” he thought. There was no reason for him to so sorry and sad. He went away and smiled, thinking he was more lucky in his life.

Luke says, “At first I was shocked that somebody would do such a thing, but then I saw Jenifer’s       and knew that I had to do something. I jumped up and started chasing him down the street and calling‘Thief, stop !’but nobody seemed       in stopping him. They were too busy staring, like it was a    or something. Luckily, I play soccer for the school team, so I’ve been training all year and I’m in pretty good shape, so I       to catch up with him on Third Avenue and knocked him down. Once he was on the     I sat on top of him and waited for the police to come. I know that people say you shouldn’t do that kind of thing,       you never know what the person can do to you, but I didn’t think about that at the time. I was too   ”
However, Jennifer is not the only one who’s grateful for Luke’s bravery. After police had arrested(送签捕) the thief, they      his apartment and found over a hundred stolen cell phones and, perhaps more   , an address book full of names of various criminal contacts(犯罪联络)， most of whom have now been brought in for     as police try to break a growing ring of cell phone criminals.
Cell phone theft(盗窃)is only one of a number of technology – related crimes that police say are on the rise. Businesspeople have been told to be extra   with their notebook computers, which are an easy target(目标) for criminals, and new police apartments are being set up to     crimes. In the last week alone, the New York Police Department has    over six hundred calls from people relating to one of the above crimes.
Thanks to Luke’s bravery and quick thinking, Jennifer didn’t     one of those victims (受害者) , and she knows       she’s going to thank Luke - by taking him for another meal at the same Indian restaurant. This time, however, she’s going to keep her cell phone in her purse.

A．questioning

C．think about

People often said Thomas Edison was the greatest genius(天才) of his age. There are only a few men in all of history, who have changed the lives of other men as much as the inventor of the first useful electric light. But Edison could never be pleased only because someone said he was a genius. “There is no such a thing as genius,” Edison said. He thought what people called genius was mostly hard work.
But Edison was a thinker as well as a worker. From his earliest days as a child he wondered about the secrets of nature. He tried to understand them, and then he tried to learn what he could usefully do with them.
Edison enjoyed thinking. He knew that most people would do almost anything instead of the difficult work of thinking, especially if they do not think very often. But he knew, too, that thinking could give men enjoyment and pleasure.
Edison could not understand why anyone could not be interested in life. As he loved to think, he also loved to work. On the day he became 75 years old, someone asked him what idea he had about life. “Work,” he answered, “Discovering the secrets of nature and using them to make men happier.” He said he had enough inventions in his mind to give him another 100 years of work.
小题1:What is genius according to Thomas Edison?

A．Hard thinking.

C．Useful ideas.

D．Useful inventions.

小题2:How did Edison always deal with the secrets of nature after exploring them?

A．To write down what he had learned.

B．To carry out a new experiment.

C．To make them useful in life.

D．To share them with others.

A．Edison was born to be a great inventor.

B．Edison was able to live another 100 years.

C．Edison was ready to make his 100th invention.

D．Life was too short for Edison to work for human beings.

Every Saturday, Grandpa and I walk to the nursing home to visit some of the old and sick people there because they can’t take care of themselves. First we visit Mrs. Sokol. I call her “The Cook.” She likes to talk about the time when she was a well-known cook in Russia. People would come from miles, just to taste her chicken soup. Next we visit Mr. Lipman. I call him “The Singer” because he loves to sing for us. Whenever he does, his voice fills the air, clear and full of energy. I also enjoy Mrs. Kagan’s stories about her own experiences during the old days. I call her “The Memory Lady.”
One day Grandpa got very sick and the doctor said they didn’t think he would get better.
It was time to visit the nursing home again. I had to go alone. Everyone was surprised when I told them that my grandpa was ill and in hospital.
A few days later, Grandpa was not able to sit up, eat and even speak. I went to the corner of the room so Grandpa wouldn’t see me cry. Suddenly, I heard someone singing. I looked up. It was The Singer. Behind her were The Cook. and The Memory Lady. The Cook brought her famous homemade chicken soup. The Memory Lady held Grandpa’s hand and told us how Grandpa once came to visit her in a snowstorm, just to bring her some roses for her birthday.
Before I realized it, visiting hours were up. That evening, Grandpa called the nurse in and said he was hungry. Soon he began to sit up. Finally he was able to get out of bed. It is really a miracle (surprising event), isn’t it?
