14．Are animal brains too simple for thoughts and choices？Stories about animal kindness have really changed my point of view．In fact，some stories are amazing，especially when animals are meeting with people．Here are two stories that interest me：
James，a wildlife writer，told a story about how an African woman had placed her baby in the shade of a tree while she was working．An elephant group walked by and saw the baby．Several elephants pulled lefy branches from the tree and covered the sleeping baby．Flies can be a problem in Africa and the branches protected the baby from the flies．The elephants were so gentle and quiet that they did not even wake up the baby．Then the elephants walked away．
An English magazine offers another story．Bill，the cat，stayed at home while its master was away on a trip，but the man was injured in a railway accident and died a few days later in a hospital．At the funeral （葬礼），the man's brother was surprised to see that Bill was there．The faithful cat had traveled a long way tothe hospital，looked at the coffin （棺材），and then sadly returned home．
Humans are only one part of the earth．The beautiful flowers are our sisters； the deer，the horse，the great eagle，these are our brothers．The sky and mountains，the cows and men，all belong to the same family．These stories，I hope，will inspire more people to treat animals as our friends rather than pets or our next meal．

29．What did the author use to believe？B
A．People meet with animals often．
B．Animal brains are too simple to make choices．
C．We should change our old views about animals．
D．Animal stories have many amazing facts．
30．Why does the author write this passage？B
A．He wants to make animals become our sisters and brothers．
B．He wants to inspire more people to treat animals as friends．
C．He wants to warn people against having more food or pets．
D．He wants to make the earth a whole family．

Goals and actions can help us accomplish more in a year than what some people will accomplish in a lifetime．To prove this （55）C，read the biographies of 56Apeople and you will see that goals and actions（ 57）Dplayed a big role in their success．
Remember the （58）Bof Mary Kay Ash，who said，"Don't limit yourself．"Many people limit themselves to what they think they can do．You can go （59）Cyour mind lets you．Whatever you believe，remember，you can achieve．"

Several thoughts（44）Amy mind as I watched him work．He wasn't well-dressed．He had on a pair of shorts and a（n）（45）CT-shirt．The bicycle he rode was not by any means the kind modern（46）Dwould want to be seen riding on．But he seemed（47）Bwith life．There he was，working hard at his small business，（48）Aat passers-by and stopping to chat now and then（49）C elderly men and women on their way to the market nearby．

19．In the Stone Age，people didn't need to find salt．They were hunting a lot of their food，and eating a lot of red meat．Red meat has plenty of salt in it，and naturally，people at that time didn't have to go and find extra salt．But when people began to farm，about 10，000BC，they started to eat mainly grains like rice and very little meat．Then they really needed another way to get salt．People sprinkled（洒） salt on different kinds of food，because there were no refrigerators．
The earliest evidence we have for people producing salt comes from northern China，where people seem to have been harvesting salt from a salt lake by 6，000BC and maybe earlier．
By about 4，500BC，Central Asian people along the shores of the Caspian Sea were mining rock salt underground．This is the earliest known salt mine in the world．
By 800BC，Chinese written records tell us that people in China were producing salt by boiling ocean salt water until the salt was left．About the same time，in Europe，the Indo-European Celts（凯尔特人）were mining salt underground in modern Austria，Hungary，southern Cermany and Poland．
By 252BC，a Chinese governor named Li Bing also worked out how to mine salt．Men dug deep wells down to where there were natural underground salt water pools，and took the salty water out．
Because everyone needed salt，but only a few people could produce it，salt was something everybody bought．Governments，therefore，began to tax it to raise a lot of money．Both the Han Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty，in China，got a lot of their money from the salt trade．About 1，000 AD，businessmen brought salt across the desert on the backs of the camels．The businessmen used the salt to buy slaves and goods from West Africa．Then they forced the slaves to mine even more salt．

24．People in the Stone Age didn't have to find salt becauseA．
A．they ate lots of red meat which contains salt
B．they didn't know how to preserve food
C．they couldn't adapt to the taste of salt
D．they gave meat to others in exchange for salt
25．According to the passage，how did the Central Asian people get salt？D
A．By boiling ocean salt water
C．By taking salt water from salt water pools
C．By harvesting salt from a salt lake
D．By mining rock salt underground
26．What can be inferred from the last paragraph？C
A．Many people couldn't afford to buy salt
B．Salt once functioned as money in ancient times
C．Salt was the main source of economy in the Tang Dynasty
D．West Africa learned how to mine salt from China．
6．You might think that fitness and fun can hardly ever go together．Well，that is changing with the Color Run，or a 5km run （5k） where participants get colored dust thrown at them．Sounds crazy，right？Well，this is known to be a very fun activity in the US，and it's getting more popular in China too．
（36）BThis is an ancient cultural festival that came from legends that talk about good beating evil，（37）E Everyone throw colored dust at each other and yells"Happy Holi!"This year Holi fell on March 24．
The Color Run is called the"Happiness 5k on the Planet"．The race is not timed and there are no winners or prizes．The only rule is that runners must start the race wearing all white．（38）C
There is a color station once every kilometer．Each color station is associated with a different color and volunteers throw colored dust at runners when they pass each color station．（39）AThere is even a color dance party at the end!
（40）G Well，it is made of corn that comes in your food，so it is safe and easy to clean off．But it's best to try and kep it out of your eyes．
Do you want to join in the fun race？

A．By the end of the race，runners are covered in all the colors of the rainbow．
B．An Indian festival called Holi inspired this colorful run．
C．The point is for everyone to forget about the competition and enjoy the unique experience．
D．It has therefore become the largest five-kilometer event series in the United States．
E．But today it's all about having fun．
F．The first Color Run event took place in March 2011 in Phoenix，Arizona．
G．You might think the dust would be dangerous to throw at people．
3．A new article in The Wall Street Journal has given us a deeper understanding of the relationship between what we earn and how we feel．（36）DWell，not true．People with higher incomes are happier than those who struggle to get by．To put a smile on your face with your money，you need to spend it strategically．Here are some ways to better spend your bank notes．
Buy experiences，not material things．
（37）FPeople think that experiences are only going to provide temporary happiness，but they actually provide both more happiness and more lasting value that help you better manage your life．
（38）EAnything you buy，including a product you think is special will become just another object．Buying small things can give us frequent small pleasures that are different each time they occur，as they forestall（抢先）adaptation．
（39）B
It's also important to consider how what you're buying will affect how you spend your time．For example，you may have to spend a very long time on the road if you get a big house in the suburb，which will totally lower overall life satisfaction．
Try giving it away．
Elizabeth Dunn，associate professor of sychology at the University of British Columbia in Canada，found tht in countries as diverse as Canada，South Africa and Uganda，giving away money consistently made people happier．（40）G

A．Buy what you like．
B．Be sure to buy time，too．
C．More money，more smiles？
D．Money can't buy happiness，right？
E．Buy lots of little things，rather than one big thing．
F．With no much money to spare，people tend to stick to material goods．
G．This was even true for people who were ly poor themselves．

Dear Mr．Green，
I am very excited to learn that we are going to start a magazine together
It is indeed a wonderful idea and everyone hopes for its success．
I would like the magazine to have three columns：News，Teachers'Advice and Students'Voice．From the News column we can learn about what is going on in both of our schools．In Teachers'Advice，our teachers can give us such help as we may not be able to get in the classroom．Students'Voice will allow us to freely express our thoughts and feelings about our lives and studies．
Yours faithfully
Li Hua．
