     Bees live in little houses made of wood. Each house has a very small door for them to come in and out.
We call their houses hives (蜂箱). When the flowers of plants in the fields begin to come out, the bees fly
away very early in the morning to get the sweet juice (甜汁) of the flowers.
     A bee has a long tongue (舌头). It goes into the flower to suck up the juice. Then it carries the juice to
the hive, and turns it into honey (蜜). When the bee flies out to look for flowers it may go to places very
far, but it never loses its way. When the rain comes down, the bee will hide in some little hole in a wall or
among the leaves of a tree. When the sun comes out again, it will fly home.
     Bees collect not only the juice but also the pollen (花粉) from inside the flowers. They carry the pollen
home to make beebread for the young bees.

     Students learn their lessons in class. In class teachers teach them. Students sit in the classroom listening
to the teacher. This is a way of learning. Is this the only way for students to learn something? Of course not.
There is another way to learn. It is that students can teach themselves. For example, if you can't remember
something when you are doing your homework, you can look at your book to find the answer. This is a way
to teach yourself. And it is not a difficult thing. We can do this at any place and at any time.
     How do you teach yourself? The first thing you must do is reading. Read something you are interested in,
or you have to read. The second is that you must ask yourself questions. The question is something you don't
understand, or you want to know more about. You can write down these questions. A clever student is usually
good at questions. The third is to answer the question yourself by thinking hard, by reading the text or other
books, and sometimes by asking other people. This is the way of teaching yourself. And you must do this all
by yourself. If you keep doing like this for a long time, you are sure to succeed (成功) in your study.

     Maybe you are more interested in sports than in history you probably think you will never be a top
student. In fact, anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. If you can use your time
well, you may improve your study without much work. Here's how:
     Plan your time carefully. When you plan your week time, you should make a list of things that you
have to do. First write down the time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. then decide on a good time for
studying. Of course, studying shouldn't take all of your time. Don't forget to leave yourself enough time
for hobbies.
     Find a good place to study. Look around the house for a good study place. Keep this space, which
may be a desk or just a corner of your room. No games, radio, or television! When you sit down to work,
think only about the subject!
     Make good use of your time in class. Listen carefully to what the teacher says. Careful listening in class
means less work later. You also need to take notes in class, because it can make it easier for you to learn
well.
     There are only a few ways mentioned here to help you with your studying. I believe you can find many
other ways besides these.
1. Can anyone become a better student if he or she wants to?

     Is your schoolbag too heavy to carry? The e-schoolbag will help you.
     In fact, the e-schoolbag should be called the e-textbook. It is a small computer for students. Heavy
schoolbags are not good for them. But the e-schoolbag will change (改变) everything. It is light and small,
but it can save all the things for study, like a textbook, an exercise book and so on. There are some chips

textbook page by page on the screen. And they can also use the e-schoolbag to take notes (做笔记) or send
emails to their teachers.

     Everyone may know tree rings tell us how old a tree is. But do you know they can tell us what the
weather was like?
     A tree grows well in a climate (气候) with lots of sunlight and rainfall (雨量). And little sunshine or
rainfall limits (限制) the growth of a tree. We can see the change of climate by studying the tree rings.
For example, to find out the weather of ten years ago, you can count the rings of a tree from the outside
to the inside. If the tenth ring is far from the eleventh ring, then we are sure that it was sunny and rainy
most of that year. If it is near to the eleventh ring, then the climate of that year was bad.
1. Tree rings can tell us not only the ___ of a tree but also the ___.
[     ]
A. age; weather

      When some plates of the earth move sunddenly, an earthquake happens. Many earthquakes begin under
the sea. In fact, earthquakes may happen anywhere on the earth. They often happen near mountains.
       During an earthquake, the shakings make rocks rise suddenly and even crack (断裂) open. Houses fall,
people are killed or hurt, and sometimes whole villages or cities are destroyed.

made maps that show" earthquake belts (带)". In these belts, it's possible for earthquakes to happen. In these
areas we can build strong houses to fight against earthquakes.

     The moon is the earth's largest and only natural satellite. A satellite is a small body that goes around a
planet. The first man-made satellite went into the orbit in 1957. By 1968 there were over three hundred
satellites in the orbit. Some satellites send back weather pictures. Others send out radio waves. Some
satellites are what we call "junk". In 1963, the United States put millions of small pieces of wire into orbit.
They were used to carry radio waves. Many of these wires may still be there. Some space junk was not
put in the orbit. For example, one piece of space junk is a glove lost by an astronaut!
     Space is very big. Does it matter if there is junk in the orbit? Many scientists think so. They say we
must pay much attention to how we use this new resource. They think anything man puts into space
should be made to come back to earth when its work is done. They say it's dangerous to have space junk,
because it's possible for spacecraft to collide with the junk.
1. The first man-made satellite was sent up into space in _____.
[     ]
A．1957
B．1963
C．1968
D．1975

      Have you ever noticed an advertisement which says "Learn a foreign language in six weeks, or your
money back! From the first day your pronunciation will be excellent. Just send…" and so on? Of course,
it never happens quite like that. The only language that is easy to learn is the mother tongue. And think
how much practice that gets! Before the Second World War people usually learned a foreign language in
order to read the literature (文学) of the country. Now speaking the foreign language is what most people
want. Every year many millions of people start learning one. How do they do it? Some people try at home,
with books and tapes; some use radio or television programmes; others go to evening classes. If they use
the language only two or three times a week, learning it will take a long time, like language learning at school.
A few people try to learn a language fast by studying for six or more hours a day. It is clearly easier to learn
the language in the country where it is spoken. However, most people cannot afford this, and for many it is
not necessary. They need the language in order to do their work better. For example, scientists and doctors
mainly need to be able to read books and reports in the foreign language. Whether the language is learned
quickly or slowly, it is hard work. Machines and good books will help, but they cannot do the students work
for him.
1. In the advertisement it is possible for a person to learn a foreign language ______.
[     ]
A. more than two month
B. half a year
C. six months
D. less than two month
2. Before the Second World War people learned a foreign language in order to ______.
[     ]
A. speak to each other
B. listen to the radio
C. read something they didn't know
D. write the literature of the other country
3. The easiest way for us to learn a foreign language is ______.
[     ]
A. using the language six or more hours a day
B. learning the language at school
C. studying the language in the foreign country
D. reading the foreign stories as many as possible
4. Most people now learn a foreign language to ______.
[     ]
A. read books and reports in a foreign language
B. talk to foreign friends
C. go to the other country to learn a language well
D. try their best to work better
5. The passage tells us that ______.
[     ]
A. the more you spend, the quicker you'll learn the language
