　　A young man named Charles Lyell had different ideas．He wrote a book about them called Principles of Geology．The earth, according to Lyell, was not only thousands of years old, it was millions of years old．As to(关于)the common belief that changes in the earth's surface happen suddenly because of a single earthquake or flood, he said that this might happen once in a while, but usually these changes took place very slowly．He believed that the surface of the earth had been changing from the beginning of time．The changes, he said, were caused by the long-term action of the winds and seas, and by forces such as volcanoes breaking out under the earth's surface．Once in a great while he thought, a mountain might appear for the first time after an earthquake．But usually mountains would rise slowly and steadily．Professor Henslow was interested in Lyell's ideas, but he did not actually believe them．Charles Darwin could not make up his mind about them．But they set him thinking along lines which would later change the beliefs of thoughtful people all over the world．

　　At Cambridge, Charles Darwin studied just enough to pass the examination, and received his college degree in 1831．During this time, he had become more and more interested in geology．At the end of the school year, he went to North Wales with one of his teachers to examine the rock formations(构成)and to search for fossils(化石)．Fossils are the remains of ancient living things．They are usually found fixed in rocks in the earth's crust(地壳)．Fossils may be of animals, such as fish, insects, birds, or humans．They may be of plants from tiny leaves to huge trees．When a living creature dies, it usually decays(腐烂)or is eaten by animals．However, if it sinks into a riverbed or is quickly covered by the blowing sands of a desert storm, the bones are kept up in the earth．Over many years the soft inner parts of a bone disappear, leaving the inside hollow．Water containing mineral enters into the hollow．Slowly the mineral hardens and makes the bone hard and heavy, like stone．

(1)

According to Charles Lyell, it is mainly ________ that the earth has been formed like today's shape．
[　　]
A．	from the beginning of time
B．	past some experiences of big flood
C．	over a very long period of years

(2)

Charles Lyell believed the fact that a mountain is formed ________．
[　　]
A．	more by seas than by volcanoes
B．	more slowly than suddenly
C．	more by an earthquake than by winds
D．	more steadily than quickly

(3)

Unlike Professor Henslow, Charles Darwin ________．
[　　]
A．	never thought Lyell's ideas were right
B．	did made up his mind not to accept Lyell's ideas
C．	thought about what the world were then thinking about
D．	thought over Lyell's ideas and developed them

(4)

The main purpose of Darwin's going to North Wales was to ________．
[　　]
A．	make a study of fossils
B．	appreciate the rock information
C．	do research work into dead animals
D．	look for plants from tiny leaves to huge trees

As Amy Hagadorn rounded the corner across the hall from her classroom, she knocked into a tall boy from the fifth grade running in the opposite direction.

“ 36 ”the boy shouted．Then, with a silly smile on his face, the boy 37 his right leg and walked the way Amy limped（跛行）when she walked.

Amy closed her eyes. “ 38 him!” She told herself as she headed for her classroom.

But at the end of the day, Amy was still thinking about the tall boy’s 39 way. It wasn’t as if he were the only one. It seemed that ever since Amy started the third grade, someone laughed at her 40 . Kids made fun of her about her 41 or her limping. Amy was 42 it. Sometimes, even in a classroom full of other students, the teasing（嘲笑）made her feel 43 alone.

Back home at the dinner table that evening, Amy was 44 . Her mother knew that things were not going well at 45 . That’s why she was happy to have some exciting news to 46 with her daughter.

“There is a Christmas 47 contest on the radio station,” Amy’s Mom announced．“ 48 a letter to Santa, and you might win a prize. I think 49 at the table with blonde（白肤金发的）curly hair should enter.”

A 50 took hold of Amy when the idea first came to her. Out came pencil and paper, and Amy went to work on her letter. “Dear Santa Claus,” she began.

While Amy worked at her letter, the rest of the family tried to 51 what she might ask from Santa．Amy’s sister, Jamie, and Amy’s Mom both thought a three-foot Barbie doll would 52 Amy’s wish list. Amy’s Dad guessed a picture book. But Amy wasn’t 53 to tell her secret Christmas wish just then. Here is Amy’s letter to Santa, which she wrote that night:

Dear Santa Claus,

My name is Amy. I am nine years old．I have a problem at school. Can you help me, Santa? Kids laugh at me 54 the way I walk and run and talk. I have cerebral palsy（脑瘫）. I just want one 55 when no one laughs at me or makes fun of me.
