　　[1]Rising temperatures have forced many plants to climb to higher elevations(海拔)to survive, researchers reported．

　　[2]More than two-thirds of the plants studied along six West European mountain ranges climbed an average of 29 meters in altitude in each decade since 1905 to better conditions on higher ground, the researchers reported in the journal Science．

　　[3]“This is the first time it's shown that climate change has a significant effect on a large set of forest plant species,” said Jonathan Lenoir, a forest ecologist at Agro Paris Tech in France, who led the study．“It helps us to develop our understanding of how ecosystems respond to temperature changes．”

　　[4]The French team's findings suggest plants at high altitudes face the same or greater impacts from rising temperatures．“Plants species move where it's the most suitable for them to grow,” Lenoir said．“If you change these good conditions, species will move to recover the same conditions．”

　　[5]Using database on plant species found at specific locations and elevations stretching back to 1905, the researchers showed many plants have steadily climbed higher to conditions best suited for survival and growth．

　　[6]Plants move higher when they disperse(分散)their seeds in the wind, which blows them ________ to high elevations and cooler temperatures similar to their former location, Lenoir said．

　　[7]The researchers tracked 171 forest plant species during two periods-between 1905 and 1985, and from1986 to 2005--along the entire elevation ranging from sea level to 2,600 meters．They found that two-thirds of the plants responded to warming temperatures over that time by ________．

　　[8]Plants at higher altitudes also appear most sensitive to warmer conditions because slight temperature changes at higher altitudes have a bigger impact．

1．What is the best title of the passage?(No more than 5 words)

2．Complete the following statement with proper words．(No more than 4 words)

Plants at high altitudes are quick to feel the warmer temperature because a tiny change there can ________ on them．

My name is Clara. I still remember that chilly December day, sitting in science class. I had finished a worksheet early and picked up a TIME for Kids magazine. A piece of news caught my eye: NASA (美国宇航局) was holding an essay contest to name its Mars rover (火星探测器). Before I even knew anything else about it, a single word flooded my 11-year-old mind, Curiosity.

I couldn’t wait for the bell to ring so I could get started on my essay. That afternoon, I raced home, sat down at the computer, and typed until my fingers ached. “Curiosity is an everlasting flame that burns in everyone’s mind…”

Five months later, my mom received a phone call, and immediately, a wide smile spread across her face.

On August 5, 2012, at 10: 31pm, the rover named Curiosity touched down safely on the surface of Mars, and I was honored to have a front-row seat in NASA.

Curiosity is such an important part of who I am. I have always been fascinated by the stars, the planets, the sky and the universe. I remember as a little girl, my grandmother and I would sit together in the backyard for hours. She would tell me stories and point out the stars. Grandma lived in China, thousands of miles away from my home in Kansas, but the stars kept us together even when we were apart. They were always there, yet there was so much I didn’t know about them. That’s what I love so much about space.

People often ask me why we go to faraway places like Mars. My answer is simple because we’re curious. We human beings do not just hole up in one place. We are constantly wondering and trying to find out what’s over the hill and beyond the horizon.

2.In which year was the author born according to the passage? (within 2 words)

3.Why did author have a front-row seat in NASA? (within 10 words)

4.What does the author remember about the time spent with Grandma? (within 15 words)[

Recently some Western countries have issued zodiac animal stamps, which attract a lot of attention as well.

A nurse of 78 this weekend celebrates 60 years of walking the wards - and she has no plans to retire.

Jackie Reid was 18 when she started work in 1953 - when the National Health Service (NHS) was just five years old - and is believed to be the oldest nurse in Britain.

The diabetes(糖尿病) specialist had to retire at 65 but returned as a nurse within two weeks and still does up to four seven-and-a-half hour shifts(轮班）each week.

Mrs. Reid said: "Nursing is hard if you do it correctly but I love my job. Working for the NHS has been my life. I have no other hobbies because I have worked all my life.

Jackie has worked at a number of different hospitals--including one in Scotland.

Her specialist field has been diabetes for the past 40 years. She retrained after her 12-year-old daughter Michelle developed the disease. She currently works at Southend Hospital, Essex.

Over the last 60years she has treated tens of thousands of patients.

Jackie believes nursing should be protected from government cuts. She said: "There're lots of things I would say to the government. If you are going to get good care you have to have the resources(资源), you can't do it without enough money. They shouldn't need the cuts that there are in the NHS. It's hard now because there's a shortage of staff."

Jackie has lived alone in Grays, Essex, since her husband did three years ago.

The couple have two daughters Michelle, 50, and Karen, 54.

Jackie added: "My youngest daughter worried about me - she doesn't think I should work as much as I do. I constantly say 'don't worry about me, I'm fine', but she never believes me. I don't like the thought of giving it up and will try to keep going forever."

2. What does Jackie think of nursing? (within 6 words)

3.When did Jackie retrain in the field of diabetes? (within 6 words)

[1] Perhaps you are an average student with average intelligence. However, you can receive better grades if you want. Yes, even students with average intelligence can be top students without additional work. Here’s how:

[2] Plan your time carefully. Make a list of your weekly tasks. Then make a schedule of your time. Be sure to set aside enough time to complete your normal reading and work assignments. Of course, studying shouldn’t occupy all of the free time on the schedule.

[3] Make good use of your time in class. Listening to what the teacher says in class means less work later. Take notes to help you remember what the teacher says.

[4] Skim before you read. Look over a passage quickly before you begin to read it more carefully. As you preview the material, you get some idea of the content and how it is organized. Later when you begin to read you will recognize less important material and you may skip some of these portions. Skimming helps double your reading speed and improve your comprehension as well.

[5] Review regularly. Go over your notes as soon as you can after class. Review important points mentioned in class as well as points you remain confused. If you know what the teacher will discuss the next day, skim and read that material, too. If you review your notes and textbook regularly, the material will become more meaningful and you will remember it longer. Regular review leads to improved performance on tests.

[6] Develop a good attitude towards tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. The world won’t end if you don’t pass a test, so don’t worry excessively about a single test.

[7] There are other techniques that might help you with your studying. Improving your studying habits will improve your grades.
