Zoos are places where different kinds of animals are Kept and shown for the public. At most modern zoos people can see, smell and hear animals in their natural way. Some zoos even have “friendship farms” where people can touch some of the animals. Here are four reasons why people need zoos.

Firstly, zoos educate people about animals and their natural environment. They give interesting information about each animal, such as where it comes from and how it lives. Special teachers at the zoo help children to understand more about the animals. Trained guides show visitors around the zoo.

Secondly, zoos are working hard to find out more about animals. New knowledge leads to improved ways of looking after animals in the zoo, and better understanding of the same animals in the wild.

Thirdly, zoos play a part in protecting animals and stopping them from disappearing. Zoos work together with each other to help the animals in danger. For example, gorillas(大猩猩) from Taronga Zoo were sent to live with gorillas at the Melbourne Zoo in the hope that they would give birth to babies.

Finally, zoos are important for people’s enjoyment. People enjoy getting close to animals without having to cross the plains（平原）of Africa or climb the mountains of China. In the past, animal shows were common in zoos. Visitors were excited by monkeys in human clothes, and they even took rides on elephants or horses. However, today people prefer to see animals behaving naturally.

So a modern zoo is a place where animals are well cared for.

1. Special teachers at the zoo___________.

A. show visitors around the zoo

B. ride elephants or horses

C. look after animals in danger

D. help children know about animals

2. According to Paragraph 5, visitors to the zoos enjoy themselves because they_____

A. can get close to animals

B. prefer to cross plains

C. like climbing mountains

D. can organize animal shows

3.Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?

A. Modern zoos have improved ways of looking after animals.

B. At modern zoos people like to see animals behaving naturally.

C. At modern zoos baby animals are usually born on the “friendship farms”.

D. Modern zoos educate people about animals and their natural environment.

You have waited 45 minutes for the valuable 10 minutes’ break. But when the bell for the next class rings, you can’t believe how quickly time has passed. If you have this experience, you’ll know how time flies when you are having fun and drags when you are bored. Now scientists have come up with a reason why this happens.

They have found that the brain changes its way to work according to how we direct our attention to a task. When we are bored, we pay more attention to how time is passing. And this makes our brains think the clock is ticking more slowly.

Recently some researchers who want to understand the conditions carried out an experiment. In the experiment, twelve volunteers watched a picture while researchers monitored（关注）their brain activity.

The volunteers were told to first notice how long a picture appeared, then the color of the picture, and thirdly, study the both. The results showed that the brain was more active when the volunteers paid attention to more subjects.

It is thought that if the brain is busy noticing many aspects（方面）of a task, it has to spread its resources, and pays less attention to the clock. Therefore, time seems to go quickly. If the brain is not so active, it spends its full energy on the passing of time. As a result, time seems to move slowly.

Next time you feel bored in class, perhaps you should concentrate(专心于) on what the teacher is saying.

1.What does the underlined word “drags” probably mean?

A. passes slowly B. runs quickly.

C. moves actively D. goes silently

2.What have the scientists found?

A. Time goes by fast when we have nothing to do.

B. The ten minutes’ break is important to students.

C. The brain works in different ways in different situations.

D. Students pay more attention to the pictures than the passing of time.

3.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. We will be full of energy if we’re busy.

B. Concentrating on things is a way to make people less bored.

C. Time goes slowly when the brain is noticing many things at the same time.

D. We should pay no attention to time when we are doing something.

4.Which is the best title of the passage?

A. The best way to save time

B. The importance of planning time

C. Why time passes quickly

D. The reason for time flying and dragging

Note-taking is a skill that can help you do well in all your schoolwork. It can make you confident when you are studying. But unluckily, most students don’t know how to take notes.

★Write down key facts. If your teacher writes notes on the blackboard, that’s great. You can copy them or write down the most important facts of all in class. Different teachers do things differently. For example, some teachers may focus on (关注) lots of dates and facts in class, but they only write the important ones on the blackboard. Other teachers may not write anything down, but they may say something important again and again.

★Ask. Don’t be afraid to ask your teacher to repeat what you miss. If your teacher speaks too fast and you can’t follow what he is saying, you can ask him after class.

★Compare. Comparing your notes with your classmates’ can be good for your learning. It can also help you and your classmates correct some mistakes.

★Organize(组织). Note-taking also needs organization. Keep notes for each subject in one notebook, so that you can find everything easily when a test comes.

★Good note-taking takes time. If you decide to recopy your notes every evening, you’ll surely have less time to watch TV. But you’ll save time in the coming test.

One day at the end of the class, a wise teacher told each of her students to bring a plastic bag and a bag of potatoes to school.

The next day she told her students, “From today on, for every person you don’t like in your lives, you can choose a potato, write the person’s name and the date on it and then put it in the plastic bag.” Day after day, some of the students’ bags were very heavy. They were then told to carry this bag with them everywhere they went for a week. They would put it inside their quilts at night, on the seats when sitting in a car or on a bus, and next to their desks at school. The days carrying the bag around with them made students get to know what a weight they were carrying in their minds. They had to pay attention to it all the time so that they wouldn’t forget it. As time passed by, the potatoes went bad and smelt nasty(恶心的). They all tried to get rid of them.

Too often we think of tolerance(宽容) as a gift to other people, and clearly it is for ourselves! If we choose to keep our sadness and hatred in our hearts, we will have to carry them around all our lives.

A . The names of the persons they didn’t like and the date.

C. Their own names and the date.

D. The names of their family members and the date
