7．Once there was a king who had given his daughter a beautiful diamond necklace．However，the necklace was stolen．Some said a bird might have taken it．The king then asked all his people to search for it．And he put up a reward of￡50，000 for anyone who found it．
One day，a man was walking along a river．Suddenly，he saw something shiny in the river．He thought that it might be the diamond necklace．So he decided to get it so that he could get the reward．He put his hand into the dirty river and tried to grab the necklace，but somehow he missed it．Having taken his hand out，he saw that the necklace was still there．Then he walked into the river and put his arm in to grab the necklace．He still missed it!
He came out and decided to walk away．Just when he was about to leave，he saw the necklace again．This time，he jumped into the river and searched everywhere，yet he failed to find the necklace．He came out，puzzled．
Then a wise man saw him and asked him what ha d happened．The man told him nothing，thinking he might take the necklace for himself．Nevertheless，the wise man could see that he was in search of something．He asked him again，and promised that he wouldn't tell anyone．After hearing this，the man told the wise man about the necklace and how he had tried to grab it，but kept failing．The wise man then told him that perhaps he should look up，towards the braches of a tree．The man raised his head，only to see the necklace on a branch of the tree．What he had been trying to get was just a reflection of the necklace all the time．

4．It was the summer of 1965．Deluca，then 17，visited Peter Buck，a family friend．Buck asked DeLuca about his plans for the future．"I'm going to college，but I need a way to pay for it，"DeLuca recalls saying．"Buck said，'You should open a sandwich shop．'"
    That afternoon，they agreed to be partners．And they set a goal：to open 32 stores in ten years．After doing some research，Buck wrote a check for﹩1，000．DeLuca rented a storefront （店面） in Connecticut，and when they couldn't cover their start-up costs，Buck kicked in another﹩1，000．
    But business didn't go smoothly as they expected．DeLuca says，"After six months，we were doing poorly，but we didn't know how badly，because we didn't have any financial controls．"All he and Buck knew was that their sales were lower than their costs．
    Deluca was managing the store and going to the University of Bridgeport at the same time．Buck was working at his day job as a nuclear physicist in New York．They'd meet Monday evenings and brainstorm ideas for keeping the business running．"We convinced ourselves to open a second store．We figured we could tell the public，'We are so successful，we are opening a second store．'"And they did--in the spring of 1966．Still，it was a lot of learning by trial and error．
    But the partners'learn-as-you-go approach turned out to be their greatest strength．Every Friday，DeLuca would drive around and hand-deliver the checks to pay their suppliers．"It probably took me two and a half hours and it wasn't necessary，but as a result，the suppliers got to know me very well，and the personal relationships established really helped out．"DeLuca says．
    And having a goal was also important．"There are so many problems that can get you down．You just have to keep working toward your goal，"DeLuca adds．
     DeLuca ended up founding Subway Sandwich，the multimillion-dollar restaurant chain．

12．When we think someone is smart，we say they have a big brain．But are there any facts to prove that statement？
Yes！In a new study done by Michael McDaniel，a psychologist at Virginia
Commonwealth University，bigger does mean smarter．"For all ages and sex groups，"he says，"it is now very clear that intelligence has something to do with brain volume（容量）．"
McDaniel reached his conclusion after measuring the size and volume of 26brains with the help of some instruments．He then used standard IQ tests to measure the intelligence of the owners of these brains．
But do IQ tests really reveal intelligence？McDaniel believes that they do，and here are other studies to back up that point of view．One study last year found that IQ is related to the amount and distribution（分布）of gray matter in the brain．The study showed that the amount of gray matter in certain places was strongly related to high IQ．The distribution of gray matter in the brain，which is different for different people，could explain why one person with a high IQ is good at math but poor at spelling，while someone else with the same IQ has just the opposite ability．
Yet another recent study found that women have more gray matter（compared with white matter） than men！However，the study also showed that in the areas of the brain specifically（特别地） related to intelligence，men had much more gray matter，which is needed for some tasks，such as doing a math problem．Women，on the other hand，had more white matter，which is necessary for collecting information．And the point is that intelligence can be influenced in different ways．
"On average，"McDaniel says，"smarter people learn more quickly，make fewer mistakes，and are more productive．"He believes in the use of IQ tests to examine those who want to find a job．So，be well，do good work，and…exercise that brain!
8．What does Michael McDaniel's new study prove？B
A．Women have more white matter than men．
B．The bigger the brain is，the cleverer the person is．
C．IQ has nothing to do with the amount of gray matter．
D．The brain is filled with large amounts of gray matter．
9．The underlined phrase"back up"in Paragraph 4meansD．
A．express   B．share   C．change   D．support
10．What can we learn from the text？D
A．Men are smarter than women．
B．Age has an influence on one's intelligence．
C．McDaniel suggests people do more IQ tests．
D．People with the same IQ may have different abilities
11．The author thinks Michael McDaniel's study isC．
A．crazy   B．difficult   C．correct  D．subjective （主观的）
19．Healthy diet should _______ some nutrition，_______ sugar，protein and calcium．（　　）
A．contain； includedB．containing； including
C．be contained； includedD．contain； including
16．Snow falls in the Earth's extreme North and South throughout the year．However，the heaviest snowfalls have been reported in the mountains of other areas during winter．Snow is even known to fall near the Equator （赤道），but only on the highest mountains．
Snow contains much less water than rain，but much of the water the world uses comes from snow．（36）C In the western United States，mountain snow provides up to seventy-five percent of all surface water supplies．
Snowfall helps to protect plants and some wild animals from winter weather．Fresh snow is made largely of air trapped among the snow crystals （晶体）．Because the air has trouble moving，the movement of heat is limited．（37）B The surface of the snow takes in，or absorbs，sound waves．As snow grows older or if there have been strong winds，it can become hard and flat．Then，the snow's surface will help to send back sound waves．
（38）GIt is responsible for the deaths of hundreds of people．Many people die in traffic accidents on roads covered with snow and ice or from being seriously stuck in the winter storm．（39）F．
People may not be able to avoid living in areas where it snows often．However，they can avoid becoming victims of snowstorms．People should stop driving and stay at home until the storm has passed．People living in these areas should carry emergency supplies in their vehicle（车辆）．（40）A

A．These include food，emergency medical supplies，and extra clothing to stay warm and dry．
B．Snow also influences the movement of sound waves．
C．Melting（融化了的） snow provides water for rivers，electric power stations and agricultural crops．
D．Mountain snowfall is always heavier than that in the South and the North Poles．
E．In many places，streets were blocked； houses fell down and supplies ere short．
F．Others die from heart attacks caused by too much physical activity out in the cold．
G．Snow may be beautiful，but it can be deadly（致命的）．
