Dear Editor,

I used to be a physician in the children’s department of a hospital. From time to time I treated children who had poisoned by medicine with older family members. The children didn’t know the medicine was danger; they just knew it tasted sweet. Children easily open the bottle what we now use in China.

Some days before I talked about medicines with an American. He showed me a sort of plastic bottle. The design was quite simple and I’m sure our Chinese factories could produce these bottles. The top of the bottle can be opened by pressing down on them while turning, which is difficult for most young children to do so, though grown-up can open these bottles very easily.

I’m certainly that the expense of making such tops would be very small. As a doctor, I’d love to see this doing. And most parents would be grateful.

Sincerely yours

Li Hua

【题目】In the United States, when one becomes rich, he wants people to know it．And even if he does not become very rich, he wants people to think that he is．That is what “Keeping up with the Joneses” is about．It is the story of someone who tries to look as rich as his neighbors．

The expression was first used in 1913 by a young American called Arthur Momand．He told this story about himself．He began earning $125 a week at the age of 23．That was a lot of money in those days．He got married and moved with his wife to a very wealthy neighborhood outside New York City．When he saw that rich people rode horses, Momand went horseback riding every day．When he saw that rich people had servants, Momand and his wife also hired a servant and gave big parties for their new neighbors．It was like a race, but one could never finish this race because one was always trying to keep up．The race ended for Momand and his wife when they could no longer pay for their new way of life．They moved back to an apartment (公寓房间) in New York City．

Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with rich lifestyle of their neighbors．He saw the funny side of it and started to write a series of short stories．He called it ‘‘Keeping up with the Joneses”, because “Jones” is a very common name in the United States. “Keeping up with the Joneses” came to mean keeping up with rich lifestyle of the people around you．Momand’s series appeared in different newspapers across the country for over 28 years．

People never seem to get tired of keeping up with the Joneses．And there are “Joneses” in every city of the world．But one must get tired of trying to keep up with the Joneses because no matter what one does, Mr．Jones always seems to be ahead．

【题目】There are an extremely large number of ants worldwide. Each individual ant hardly weigh anything, but together they weigh almost the same as all of mankind. They also live nearly everywhere, except on frozen mountain tops or around the Antarctic. For animals their size, ants have been surprisingly successful, largely due to their wonderful social conduct.

In groups that vary in size from a few hundred to tens of millions, they organize their lives with a clear distribution of labor. Even more amazing is how they achieve this level of organization. While we use sound and sight to communicate, ants depend mostly on pheromone (信息素), which is a kind of chemical released by individuals and smelled or tasted by fellow members of a group. When an ant finds food, it produces a pheromone that will lead others straight to where the food is. When an ant comes under attack or is dying, it sends out an alarm pheromone to warn the whole group to prepare for a defensive fight.

In fact, when it comes to the art of war, ants have no equal. They are completely fearless and will take on an animal much larger than themselves, attacking in large groups and beating their target. They show so much devotion to their group that not only soldier ants but also worker ants will sacrifice their lives to help defeat an enemy.

United and devoted, these little animals have survived on the earth for more than 140 million years, far longer than dinosaurs. Because they think as one, they have a united intelligence greater than you would expect from one small individual ant.

【1】We can learn from the passage that ants are__________.

A. unwilling to share food

B. more successful than mankind

C. not used to living in cold environment.

D. too many to achieve any organization.

【2】Ants can use pheromones for __________.

A. tasting food B. communication

C. warning enemies D. arranging labor

【3】What does the underlined expression "take on" in Paragraph 3 mean?

A. Help out. B. Give in to.

C. Show favor to. D. Fight against.

【4】Ants have survived for so long mainly because of ____________.

A. their social cooperation.

B. their large group size.

C. their fearless attack.

D. their individual intelligence.

Like human beings，dogs may catch cold because of cold weather，wet conditions or can also get it from other sick dogs．If a dog has a running nose and watery eyes，coughs or sneezes(打喷嚏），then it is quite probable that the dog has caught cold．

A dog's cold can get over after a few days without treatment but it totally depends upon the owner to treat it with medications or improve its immune power （免疫力） to get rid of the cold naturally．Following are some of the things you can do if your dog gets a cold．

You can improve its immune power by giving it proper nutrient diet．Healthy food can really do wonders．Try to give it food which is either suggested by the vet（兽医）or is healthy for your pet．Increase the intake of food which is rich in vitamins A，C and E．

Keep your dog warm．The best place for your dog in winter is inside your house．Do not keep your dog outside when it is cold and wet．At home you can also keep the dog warm with the help of carpets．This will make him comfortable and help him to recover fast．

Increase the fluid（流质）intake as it helps a lot．Water can be the best choice but you can also add broth （肉汤）in water which will give your dog strength．Warm water will make your dog more comfortable and will also keep the dog away from the respiratory infections（呼吸道感染）．
