   Spiders are actually useful. They do not harm plants, as some people think. Instead, they protect plants by controlling insects. If you see spiders in a garden, it doesn’t mean the garden is unhealthy. It means the spiders are helping the garden stay healthy.

       If you spend some time watching spiders, you may be surprised by what you see. There are many wonderful webs. They may perform skillfully on their thin silk threads. However, some spiders spin (织) no webs at all. They follow insects on the ground with all the skill and cruelty of a tiger hunting big game.

       Scientists have named about 30,000 species of spiders, but they think this is only one-fourth of all the different kinds of spiders in the world. In most species, people can easily tell the female spider from the male because the female is much bigger. For example, the female black widow (黑寡妇) weighs about one hundred times as much as the male.

       Female spiders lay eggs. After hatching (孵), most spiders live less than a full year, but some don’t. Tarantulas (狼蛛) do not become adults until they are 10 or 11 years old. Female tarantulas often live an extra 10 years! The baby spiders that hatch from the eggs are called spiderlings.

56. The underlined in Paragraph 2 part “a tiger hunting big game” refers to “______.”

   A. laying eggs                   B. hatching baby spiders

   C. spinning webs                D. catching insects

57. How many kinds of spiders are there in the world according to the passage?

   A. About 30, 000.       B. About 60, 000.    C. About 90, 000.    D. About 120, 000.

58. What can we know from the passage?

   A. If there are spiders in your garden, it means it is unhealthy.

   B. All spiders can spin webs.

   C. Normally, a male spider is smaller than a female one.

   D. All spiders can live 10 or 11 years after hatching.

59. What will be probably talked about after the last paragraph?

   A. The way spiders spin webs.                     B. Something about spiderlings.

   C. How the spiders protect plants.                 D. The way spiders stay healthy.

The early morning fire damaged the historic Gallad House today. It destroyed the third floor of the building so fire fighters saved the first and the second floors. There were only a few elderly people live in the building at the time and they carried out to safety. The Gallad House was built in 1718 and was used for a hotel for over 150 years. George Washington stayed in here in 12. The Gallad family owned the building for the elderly. Several fire department were called to the scene. When Fire Chief Andrew Bond asked when the fire started, he answered that perhaps a burning cigarette caused it. Chief Bond had promised to further examine the cause.

It happened in a morning that I was walking in the street .I ate up a banana and threw their peel on the corner of the road. Short after that I heard a scream behind .I looked back to see what was happened .A little girl about 8 years old fell down and the banana peel was exactly under her left shoes . She stood up without cry .Then she picked up the banana peel and ran toward the dustbin .On that moment ,I realized my fault , and went to apologize her for that ,but my vanity (虚荣心)prevented me . The little girl had taught me a good lesson by her action.. And now, after I do everything, I’ll think carefully whether it’s right or wrong. I’ll do my best to be in good habits and qualities.            

I am angry about the act of dishonesty in the exams. I’m not saying that I’m a good student and that I’ve never cheated. I once write the answer on my hand for a history test but, unluckily, caught by my teacher. Because she     was one of my most favorites, there were no words to describe how sorry I felt at once. I thought cheat would help me keep my straight A’s. Little I know that I was hurting not only herself but also my teachers. From this lesson I know teachers want students to succeed by learning with their own and do the best they can, not by cheating.
