蚂蚁和蚜虫的关系简直可以说是亲密无间的，有时候，你会看到一群蚂蚁背着蚜虫川流不息地跑来跑去，那是蚂蚁在给蚜虫搬家。当蚜虫在一片植物上大肆蚕食，只剩下残茎败叶之后，蚂蚁就把这群祸害转移到另一处食物充足的地方去，使蚜虫能够饱食终日，好排泄出更多的蚜蜜来。在蚂蚁搬家的时候，也不会丢下为它提供美餐的好朋友不管。确定了新居之后，小蚂蚁就会把蚜虫一个一个搬到附近的植物上去。蚂蚁不仅是蚜虫的“卫士”，还是蚜虫的“保姆”。冬天临近了，雌蚜排出了一个个越冬卵。蚂蚁很担心这些卵会被冻坏，便不辞劳苦地把它一个个搬到外面晾晒，晒完后再搬回巢去。到了次年早春，蚜卵孵化了，这下又忙坏了小蚂蚁，它又主动承担了喂养小蚜虫的任务。直到春暖花开，蚂蚁又把小蚜虫一个个搬出洞来，放到植物上，让它去啃食鲜嫩的茎叶，以便自己从它的屁股后面捞取一点蚜蜜。（选自《中学生必读文库》）

The Guidance Department （教导处）at Berryville High School has a staff of eleven teachers. Most of their work is done with the students. But the staff sees a lot of parents, too.
“Parents meetings make clear monthly diagram（图表）.”says Mildred Freman, head of the Guidance. “This diagram stays much the same from year to year. The busy months are October, March and May. ”
September, the beginning of a new school year, starts rather slowly. Few parents come in. Most of these want to talk about the schedules. October brings many problems caused by some students. Some parents are called in. Others come by themselves. Things quiet down in November. December is a quiet month. “It’s the holiday. ”Ms Foreman says, “People want to come in, I know, but they decide to wait until after New Year’s Day.”
Report cards go home just before Christmas holidays. Bad marks bring parents in as school opens again. This happens again in March, another report card month. May is always the year’s busiest month. That’s when parents begin to think that their children may be asked to stay in the same grade again. They come in to see if anything can be done before things are decided in June.

Has helping people become a thing of the past? Walking through the crowds of today’s busy cities, you might think so. It seems people are too busy or too afraid to lend a hand to someone they don’t know. But at Radio Beijing today, two friends would like to share their experiences with the listeners.
Hazel Johansen
One Sunday morning, I was running late for work. As I drove off, I noticed an elderly lady from the neighborhood. She was pulling a large piece of wood out of the rain. I wanted to help, but I was in a hurry.
I hesitated （犹豫） for a moment. Then I stopped my car, got out and helped her move the wood. Months went by. Then one day, I was walking in the street and saw some workmen cleaning out an old store. There in the dark and dirty corner was a large Coca-Cola cooler. How fun! The workmen said I could have it, so I picked it up and started home. I didn’t get very far. It was much heavier than I thought. How could I get this to my home? Then out of the blue, the elderly lady appeared — with a handcart! I had helped her, and just when I needed it, she was there and returned the favor （帮忙）.
Rachel Swats — The Irish Helper
Going to the hospital is no fun —— especially when you live in a foreign culture. I recently went to see a doctor in the US. When I got there, I discovered I had forgotten to bring enough money to pay for my treatment. I had my credit card in my pocket, and I thought I could use that. However, I was wrong! For some reason, my card didn’t work. And even the hospital’s ATM wouldn’t let me take money. Since I couldn’t pay, I couldn’t get the treatment I needed.
I was so sad that I began to cry. Unluckily, when I started crying, I had trouble stopping. I was making quite a big noise!
Everybody else in line was getting impatient （不耐烦的）. Just at that very moment, a lovely Irish woman appeared and asked me what I needed. I told her my problem. She immediately handed me $1,000, along with her business card, so I could repay her later.
I was able to pay and get the treatment. When I got back home, I emailed the Irish woman. We’ve been in touch ever since!

New York City is a very large city with 8 million people. How do so many people move on their way to work and school?
In New York you can travel by subways, bus, taxi and private (私人的) car. The subway runs on the railroad lines under the city. It crosses the city at different points and goes to all parts of the city. Travelling by subway is the fastest way to get around the city.
The second way to travel is by bus. It is a slower way to travel.
You can also travel by taxi. This is very expensive, but the taxi will take you to every place you want to go to. If traffic is heavy, the taxi will be slow. During the mornings and afternoons, there is the “rush hour”. This is the time when the traffic is very heavy with people going to and from work..
The last way is to use your private car. It’s not good to drive during the “rush hour”. If there is an accident on the road, you will have to wait for a long time.
The best time to travel is from 9 a.m to 4.pm . Traffic will be less crowded during this time because most people are already at school or at work at that time.
【小题1】How many ways of travelling are mentioned (提到) in the passage?
| A．Two | B．Three | C．Four | D．Five |
| A．高峰时间. | B．匆忙时间 | C．冲刺时间 | D．繁忙时间 |
| A．by bus | B．by subway | C．by taxi | D．by private car |
| A．there is no “rush hour” from 9.am to 4 p.m. |
| B．traffic is heavy at noon. |
| C．most Americans have lunch at home. |
| D．people go to work and school at 9:00. |
| A．Because New York City is a modern city. |
| B．Because New York City is a very large city. |
| C．Because New York City is new. |
| D．Because the people in New York City are very busy. |
