【题目】You may have seen a talking parrot on a TV show, in a movie, or even in someone’s home. The parrot has learned to copy sounds that people make. Birds are not the only animals that can copy the noises they hear. Dolphins, bats, and some apes also copy sounds. Now we can add elephants to this list of copycats.

Dr. Joyce Poole is a zoologist. She studies the sounds of elephants. While she was in Kenya, she would hear strange noises made by Mlaika after sunset. Mlaika was a 10-year-old African elephant.

Mlaika lived near a highway. Dr. Poole says, “I could not tell the difference between Mlaika’s call and the distant truck noise.” She and other scientists studied Mlaika’s sounds. It turned out that Mlaika was copying the sounds of the trucks driving by. Why would Mlaika copy trucks that she heard going by on the highway? Animals that are able to copy sounds may enjoy practicing new sounds. When they are kept outside of their natural environment, they may copy unusual sounds. That may be why an elephant would copy the sound of a truck.

“Mlaika was not the only copycat elephant,” Dr. Poole says. Calimero is a 23-year-old male African elephant. He spent 18 years with two female Asian elephants. Asian elephants make chirping sounds (sounds made by birds) to talk with one another. African elephants usually do not make chirping sounds. But Calimero now does. He is copying his Asian elephant friends. Dr. Poole says that elephants need to form bonds with their family and friends. She says, “They make sounds to communicate with each other. When they are separated, they use sounds to keep in contact.”

Parrots, dolphins, humans, and elephants show that being a copycat is one way that animals and people make new friends and keep old ones.

【1According to the passage, what does Mlaika copy?

A. To clarify the meaning of copycat elephants.

B. To show the cleverness of African elephants.

【3From paragraph 4, we can know ________.

A. how long it takes for an elephant to learn a new sound

B. why the African elephant can make chirping sounds

C. why the Asian elephants make noises after sunset

D. how Asian and African elephants are alike

【4According to the passage, why do some animals like to be copycats?

C. To make new friends and keep old ones.

D. To avoid the danger from the outside world.

【题目】Blind imitation is self-destruction. To those who do not recognize their unique worth, imitation appears attractive; to those who know their strength, imitation is unacceptable.

In the early stages of skill or character development, imitation is helpful.When I first learned to cook, I used recipes (菜谱)and turned out some tasty dishes.But soon I grew bored.Why did you follow someone elses way of cooking when I could create my own? Imitating role models is like using training wheels on a childs bicycle; they help you get going, but once you find your own balance, you fly faster and farther without relying on them.

In daily life, imitation can hurt us if we subconsciously(下意识地)hold poor role models.If, as a child, you observed people whose lives were bad, you may have accepted their fear and pain as normal and gone on to follow what they did. If you do not make strong choices for yourself, you will get the results of the weak choices of others.

In the field of entertainment, our culture glorifies celebrities.Those stars look great on screen.But when they step off screen, their personal lives may be disastrous. If you are going to follow someone, focus on their talent, not their bad character or unacceptable behaviors.

Bless is that the person is willing to act on their sudden desire to create something unique. Think of the movies, books, teachers, and friends that have affected you most deeply.They touched you because their creations were motivated by inspiration, not desperation.The world is changed not by those who do what has been done before them, but by those who do what has been done inside them.Creative people have an endless resource of ideas.The problem a creator faces is not running out of material; it is what to do with the material knocking at the door of imagination.

Study your role models, accept the gifts they have given, and leave behind what does not serve.Then you can say, I stand on the shoulders of my ancestors tragedies and declare victory, and know that they are cheering me on.

【1】Imitation proves useful when you

A.know you are unique

B.lose the balance of life

C.begin to learn something new

D.get tired of routine practice

【2】To avoid the bad result of imitation, we should________.

A.forget daily fear and pain

B.choose the right example

C.ask others for decisions

D.stay away from stars

【3】According to the author, the world moves on because of those who are

A.desperate to influence others with their knowledge

B.ready to turn their original ideas into reality

C.eager to discover what their ancestors did

D.willing to accept others ideas

【4】The trouble a creator faces is

A.the lack of strong motivation

B.the absence of practical ideas

C.how to search for more materials

D.how to use imagination creatively

【5】What is the authors purpose in writing this passage?

A.To highlight the importance of creatively.

B.To criticize the characters of role models.

C.To compare imitation with creation.

D.To explain the meaning of success.

【题目】请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意:每个空格只填一个单词。

Research shows that the summer before college can be a dangerous time for teenagers, as they are between home and high school on the one side, and a more challenging and independent existence as a college student on the other

Take drinking for exampleResearch has reported that teenagers tend to increase their alcohol use during the summer before college and in their first termSuch drinking can lead to tragedy: it’s estimated that more than 1,100 college students at 18 to 24 years of age die each year from alcohol-related injuries, including car crashes, and almost 600, 000 are injured under the influence of alcohol.

In addition to drinking, future freshmen may also have gaps in their knowledge about other aspects of university lifeA study has found that students are “generally aware” of the fact that they have to place them into college courses and their school’s curricular requirementsIn addition, many students hold misunderstandings such as “Getting into college is the hardest part”, and “I can take whatever classes I want when I get to college”In fact, students’ courses may be determined by their level of preparation

It is found that college-bound high-school graduates are faced with a number of potentially frightening tasks during the summerFor example, colleges typically require students to take placement tests(分班考试)and fill out a lot of paperwork, including housing and medical forms, over the summerCompleting these tasks may be especially frightening for low-income and first-generation college-bound students whose families may be short of experience with the college-going process

In addition, it’s only in the summer after high-school graduation when students face the reality of paying the first college bill, which often includes unexpected costs like required health insuranceFor college-intending students, successfully controlling the post-high-school summer thus requires a level of finance that may be unrelated to their ability to succeed in the classroomAs a result, students who have already broken through many barriers to college admission may fail to enter college

Paring college-bound students with “fellow advisers”---students already in college who have been trained to support and coach their learners through the summer---improves the rate at which the learners show up at collegeEven more wonderful, a low-cost campaign of text messages---in which researchers sent recent high-school graduates and their parents a series of eight to ten text-message reminders of key tasks to complete over the summer---is just as effective in increasing the rate of students who successfully make the change to college

A little “summer pushing” could be a key step in getting students all the way across the finish line
