6．How did the sea horse get its name？It's not hard to guess．The top half of this fish looks like a small horse．But looking at the sea horse's tail，you might think"sea monkey"is a better name．Then there's the sea horse's pouch．"Sea kangaroo"might also be a good name for this fish．
Sea horses live in warm ocean waters all over the world．They keep safe from other fish by hiding in plants and grasses that grow under the sea．They can also change color to match their surroundings．A sea horse remains in one place for hours at a time by winding its tail around a plant．It feeds on live food，such as small shrimps．For a fish that doesn't move around much，the sea horse eats a lot-in just one day，a sea horse can eat 3，000 shrimps!
A sea horse keeps the same mate for its whole life，and it's the male sea horse that gives birth to baby sea horses．How does this happen？Baby sea horses start out as eggs，which come from the female's body．The male carries the eggs in its pouch for about three weeks until they hatch．Soon after the babies are born，the female gives her mate a new set of eggs．
Sadly，the number of sea horses is becoming smaller．Why is this happening？Some places where sea horses once lived have been filled in to make new land．Also，many sea horses are caught and sold as aquarium fish．This really is not a good idea because most sea horses don't live long in aquariums．The best place for a sea horse is the ocean．

20．Bamboo（竹子）is one of nature's most surprising plants．Many people call this plant a tree，but it is a kind of grass．
Like other kinds of grass，a bamboo plant may be cut very low to the ground，but it will grow back very quickly．A Japanese scientist reported one bamboo plant which grew 1.5metres（4feet）in 24hours!Bamboo grows almost everywhere in the world except Europe．There are more than 1，000kinds of bamboo．
Not all bamboo looks the same．Some bamboo plants are very thin．They may only grow to be a few centimeters wide while others may grow to more than 30centimetres（1foot）across．This plant also comes in different colors，from yellow to black to green．
Bamboo has been used to make many things such as hats and kitchen tools．Because it is strong，bamboo is also used to build buildings．
Many Asian countries have used bamboo for hundreds of years．They often use bamboo for buildings and supporting new buildings and bridges while they are being built．

7．A report by the US'Open Syllabus Project found that the most read books among US college students in the past year were the likes of The Republic by ancient Greek philosopher Plato and The Clash of Civilizations by US political scientist Samuel Huntington．And according to reports released by Chinese college libraries，the most popular books among Chinese students are novels like Journey Under the Midnight Sun by Japanese writer Keigo Higashino and Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils （《天龙八部》） by Chinese author Louis Cha．
This is considered by many to be one of the reasons why Chinese students are sometimes not as good at critical thinking or observing global perspectives as US students-they read too many bestseller novels．
"By reading texts in social studies，science，and other disciplines，students build a foundation of knowledge in these fields that will also give them the background to be better readers in all areas，"Robert Pondiscio，vice president of the Core Knowledge Foundation in the US told The Washington Post．
According to China Youth Daily，there are usually five stages when it comes to reading，with popular novels at the bottom．More advanced readers normally go on to read classic fictional literature，history and philosophy，or books with critical ideas．The fifth stage involves students making their own reading lists based on the ideological （意识形态的） systems they have built throughout the years．
We spend hours，days or even weeks on a book，so it's only natural that we want to learn something useful in return for our efforts．Many see reading as an investment in themselves．
But this practical view of literature and the thought that history and philosophy books are superior to novels is not agreed by everyone．After all，what they offer are two different kinds of satisfaction．While the former provides knowledge，the latter brings sentimental （情感的） experiences．"Fiction and poetry are medicines，"UK writer Jeanette Winterson once wrote．"What they heal is the rupture （裂痕） reality makes on the imagination．"

24．The purpose of paragraph one is toD．
A．compare the popular books between the US and Chinese students．
B．introduce the different discoveries from China and the US．
C．analyze the cultural differences of the two countries．
D．state why Chinese students are sometimes not good at critical thinking
25．To know something in each area，students should readB．
A．famous novels which has won many prizes
B．texts in social studies and other disciplines
C．modern magazines which have gained great popularity
D．science fictions involving knowledge in many areas
26．According to China Youth Daily，which is the highest stage while reading？A
A．Books based on the readers'thought．
B．Classic fictional literature．
C．Books with critical ideas．
D．Popular novels．
27．What can we infer from the last two paragraphs？B
A．History books are superior to novels．
B．Jeanette Winterson thought fiction and poetry are also useful．
C．Philosophy books help the readers get emotional experience．
D．The writer prefers to read the historical and scientific books．
