But there were more stars than you could 23 and they had colortoo. He said that if there were no clouds, we had no blankets and were 24 to the universe. Our warmth was going to 25 the whole universe. When there were clouds, they were like blankets and we were not exposed to the universe. I 26 feel on the edge of space on a very clear night.
I am sure there were many other lessons that I 27 but no longer remember. What I did 28 , in general, was that there were explanations and that the more I understood them, the more comfortable the world was to live in.

At night, bats fly through the air, catching hundreds of insects and other small animals. But during the day, they hardly move at all. Instead, bats pass the time hanging upside down from a secret spot.
There are a couple of reasons why bats rest this way. First of all, it puts them in a position for takeoff. Unlike birds, bats can’t fly into the air from the ground. Their wings don’t produce enough lift to take off from a dead stop, and their hind legs are so small and underdeveloped that they can’t run to build up the necessary takeoff speed. Instead, they use their front claws to climb to a high spot, and then fall into flight.
During the hours when most enemies are active, bats gather where few animals would think to look and most can’t reach. This allows them to disappear from the world until night comes again. There’s also little competition for these resting spots, as other flying animals don’t have the ability to hang upside down. Bats have a unique physiological adaptation that lets them hang around this way without using any energy. For you to hold your fist around an object tight, you contract（紧缩）several muscles in your arm, which are connected to your fingers by tendons（腱）；as one muscle contracts, it pulls a tendon, which pulls one of your fingers closed. A bat’s talons（爪）close in the same way, except that their tendons are connected only to the upper body, not to a muscle. To hang upside down, a bat pulls its claws open with other muscles. To get the talons to take hold of the surface, the bat simply lets its body relax. The weight of the upper body pulls down on the tendons connected to the talons, causing them to hold tight. Therefore, the bat doesn’t have to do anything to hang upside down.
38. Bats hang upside down because________．
A. they haven’t developed a pair of strong claws [http://wx.jtyjy.com/ HT
B. they can’t start to fly from the ground directly
C. they have no hind legs to support their body
D. they can’t find quiet places to stay during the day
39. The third paragraph tells us that bats’ hanging upside down_______.
A. is to save their energy for night movement
B. is a way to fight against flying animals
C. is a great way to hide from danger
D. is a skill to compete for the flying places
40. Why can bats hang upside down easily?
A. Because their upper body is light.
B. Because they have strong muscles.
C. Because their talons are linked to muscles tightly.
D. Because their tendons are linked to their upper body.[
41. What is the passage mainly about?
A. The living habits of bats. B. How and why bats hang upside down.
C. The importance of bats’ hanging upside down.
D. How bats use their energy at night.
D When a child is told he is "uncool", it can be very painful. He may say he doesn't care, and even act in ways that are opposite of cool on purpose. But ultimately, these are simply ways to handle sadness by pretending it's not there. Helping a child feel better in school had to be careful. If you say, "Why are you worried about what other children think about you? It doesn't matter!" children know that it does matter. Instead, an active way may be best. You could say, "I'm going to do a couple of things for you to help you feel better in school." If a boy is having trouble making friends, the teacher can help him. The teacher can arrange things so that he has chances to use his abilities to contribute to class projects. This is how the other children learn how to value his good qualities and to like him. A teacher can also raise a child's popularity in the group by showing that he values that child. It even helps to put him in a seat next to a very popular child, or let him be a partner with that child in activities, etc. There are things that parents can do at home, too. Be friendly when your child brings others home to play. Encourage him to invite friends to meals and then serve the dishes they consider "super". When you plan trips, picnics, movies, and other shows, invite another child with whom your child wants to be friends. What you can do is to give him a chance to join a group that may be shutting him out. Then, if he has good qualities, he can start to build real friendship of his own. 42. A child who has been informed of being "uncool" may ________. A. care nothing about it B. develop a sense of anger C. do something uncool purposely D. pretend to get hurt very much 43. A teacher can help an unpopular child by ________. A. seeing the child as the teacher's favourite B. asking the child to do something for partners C. forcing other children to make friends with the child D. offering the child chances to show his good qualities 44. How can parents help their child fit in better? A. By cooking delicious food for him. B. By being kind to his schoolmates. C. By forcing him to invite friends home. D. By taking him to have picnics in the park. 45. Which of the following is TRUE? A. Children doesn't care others' comments on them. B. It's only teacher's work to make children popular. C. Parents should take their children out for picnic and shows more often. D. Inviting children's friends to family activities is good for them to make friends. 46.The passage mainly talks about ________. A. how to help an unpopular child B. why some children are unpopular C. who is responsible for unpopular children D. how to find out good points of unpopular children E
ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia – One of the world’s most famous fossils (化石) – the 3.2 million-year-old Lucy skeleton (骨骼) unearthed in Ethiopia in 1974 – will go on an exhibition tour abroad for the first time in the United States, officials said Tuesday.
Even the Ethiopian public has only seen Lucy twice. The Lucy on exhibition at the Ethiopian National Museum in the capital, Addis Ababa, is a replica while the real remains are usually locked in a secret storeroom. A team from the Museum of National Science in Houston, Texas, spent four years discussing with the Ethiopians for the U.S. tour, which will start in Houston next September.
“Ethiopia’s rich culture of both the past and today, is one of the best kept secrets in the world,” said Joel Bartsch, director of the Houston museum.
The six-year tour will also go to Washington, New York, Denver and Chicago. Officials said six other U.S. cities may be on the tour. But they said plans had not been worked out.
Travelling with Lucy will be 190 other fossils.
Lucy, her name taken from a Beatles song that played in a camp the night of her discovery, is part of the skeleton of what was once a 3-foot-tall ape-man (猿人).
47. The author writes this text mainly to ___ .
A. introduce a few U.S. museums B. describe some research work
C. discuss the value of an ape-man D. report a coming event
48. What does the words “a replica” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A . A painting of the skeleton B. A photograph of Lucy
C. A copy of the skeleton. D. A written record of Lucy.
49. How many cities has Lucy’s U.S. tour plan already included?
A. Four. B. Five. C. Six. D. Eleven.[来
50. What was the skeleton named after?
A. An ape-man B. A song. C. A singer D. A camp.

“Look it up in the dictionary” is the usual comment when people are in doubt about the meaning or spelling of a word. Dictionaries are considered the final authority on these matters as well as on pronunciations and other facts about a word.
Until a few hundred years ago, however, people could not “look it up” because there were no English dictionaries. The ancient Greeks and Romans and the scholars of the Middle Ages had made lists of Latin and Greek words. 51 The first great English dictionary listing both common and uncommon words was written by Samuel Johnson in 1755.
In America, the most famous name in dictionary writing is that of Noah Webster. He stressed American rather than British ways of speaking. His great dictionary, which first appeared in 1828, has been republished many times. 52 The latest edition is still considered “the” dictionary. It defines over 450,000 words, including radar, television and many others undreamed of by Webster.
53 The huge ones that rest on stands in libraries are called unabridged, meaning “not shortened.” They tell not only a word’s meaning and spelling but also its pronunciation, origin, history, part of speech, grammatical forms, and ways of use. The smaller ones do not provide all this information.
54 A bilingual（两种语言的） dictionary, such as a Spanish-English dictionary, translates words from one language into another. A thesaurus（分类词汇） lists other words that mean the same as each listed word. A gazetteer lists place names, and a glossary is a small dictionary in a book defining technical words in that book. There are also dictionaries of scientific terms and ones on many other topics. There is even a dictionary of slang. 55 The dictionary is one of our most valuable language tools.
A. Each time, it has been updated.
B. General dictionaries are not the only kind.
C. Thus there are many kinds of special dictionaries.
D. In a general dictionary, each word may have multiple meanings.
E. Dictionaries that list all kinds of words are known as general dictionaries.
F. Over the previous 150?years more than 20 dictionaries had been published.
G. But it was not until 1604 that a book of uncommon English words appeared.

In the picture, two goats are tied to each other with a rope. They both see some grass in opposite directions, and try to pull to get their own food. They are unsuccessful, because the rope is too short to allow them to eat the food at the same time.
The picture is trying to tell us that cooperation is better than conflict. Both of the goats want their food at the same time, which has formed a conflict between them. However, if they decide to cooperate and eat the grass on the left first, and then the grass on the right, they will both be able to get their food. Thus things will turn into a "win-win" situation.
Therefore, remember that sometimes our goal is not that we get something and the other gets nothing, but that all people get what they want. Cooperation will benefit everyone.

At night, bats fly through the air, catching hundreds of insects and other small animals. But during the day, they hardly move at all. Instead, bats pass the time hanging upside down from a secret spot.
There are a couple of reasons why bats rest this way. First of all, it puts them in a position for takeoff. Unlike birds, bats can’t fly into the air from the ground. Their wings don’t produce enough lift to take off from a dead stop, and their hind legs are so small and underdeveloped that they can’t run to build up the necessary takeoff speed. Instead, they use their front claws to climb to a high spot, and then fall into flight.
During the hours when most enemies are active, bats gather where few animals would think to look and most can’t reach. This allows them to disappear from the world until night comes again. There’s also little competition for these resting spots, as other flying animals don’t have the ability to hang upside down. Bats have a unique physiological adaptation that lets them hang around this way without using any energy. For you to hold your fist around an object tight, you contract（紧缩）several muscles in your arm, which are connected to your fingers by tendons（腱）；as one muscle contracts, it pulls a tendon, which pulls one of your fingers closed. A bat’s talons（爪）close in the same way, except that their tendons are connected only to the upper body, not to a muscle. To hang upside down, a bat pulls its claws open with other muscles. To get the talons to take hold of the surface, the bat simply lets its body relax. The weight of the upper body pulls down on the tendons connected to the talons, causing them to hold tight. Therefore, the bat doesn’t have to do anything to hang upside down.
38. Bats hang upside down because________．
A. they haven’t developed a pair of strong claws [http://wx.jtyjy.com/ HT
B. they can’t start to fly from the ground directly
C. they have no hind legs to support their body
D. they can’t find quiet places to stay during the day
39. The third paragraph tells us that bats’ hanging upside down_______.
A. is to save their energy for night movement
B. is a way to fight against flying animals
C. is a great way to hide from danger
D. is a skill to compete for the flying places
40. Why can bats hang upside down easily?
A. Because their upper body is light.
B. Because they have strong muscles.
C. Because their talons are linked to muscles tightly.
D. Because their tendons are linked to their upper body.[
41. What is the passage mainly about?
A. The living habits of bats. B. How and why bats hang upside down.
C. The importance of bats’ hanging upside down.
D. How bats use their energy at night.
D When a child is told he is "uncool", it can be very painful. He may say he doesn't care, and even act in ways that are opposite of cool on purpose. But ultimately, these are simply ways to handle sadness by pretending it's not there. Helping a child feel better in school had to be careful. If you say, "Why are you worried about what other children think about you? It doesn't matter!" children know that it does matter. Instead, an active way may be best. You could say, "I'm going to do a couple of things for you to help you feel better in school." If a boy is having trouble making friends, the teacher can help him. The teacher can arrange things so that he has chances to use his abilities to contribute to class projects. This is how the other children learn how to value his good qualities and to like him. A teacher can also raise a child's popularity in the group by showing that he values that child. It even helps to put him in a seat next to a very popular child, or let him be a partner with that child in activities, etc. There are things that parents can do at home, too. Be friendly when your child brings others home to play. Encourage him to invite friends to meals and then serve the dishes they consider "super". When you plan trips, picnics, movies, and other shows, invite another child with whom your child wants to be friends. What you can do is to give him a chance to join a group that may be shutting him out. Then, if he has good qualities, he can start to build real friendship of his own. 42. A child who has been informed of being "uncool" may ________. A. care nothing about it B. develop a sense of anger C. do something uncool purposely D. pretend to get hurt very much 43. A teacher can help an unpopular child by ________. A. seeing the child as the teacher's favourite B. asking the child to do something for partners C. forcing other children to make friends with the child D. offering the child chances to show his good qualities 44. How can parents help their child fit in better? A. By cooking delicious food for him. B. By being kind to his schoolmates. C. By forcing him to invite friends home. D. By taking him to have picnics in the park. 45. Which of the following is TRUE? A. Children doesn't care others' comments on them. B. It's only teacher's work to make children popular. C. Parents should take their children out for picnic and shows more often. D. Inviting children's friends to family activities is good for them to make friends. 46.The passage mainly talks about ________. A. how to help an unpopular child B. why some children are unpopular C. who is responsible for unpopular children D. how to find out good points of unpopular children E

A team from the Museum of National Science in Houston, Texas, spent four years discussing with the Ethiopians for the U.S. tour, which will start in Houston next September.
“Ethiopia’s rich culture of both the past and today, is one of the best kept secrets in the world,” said Joel Bartsch, director of the Houston museum.
The six-year tour will also go to Washington, New York, Denver and Chicago. Officials said six other U.S. cities may be on the tour. But they said plans had not been worked out.
Travelling with Lucy will be 190 other fossils.
Lucy, her name taken from a Beatles song that played in a camp the night of her discovery, is part of the skeleton of what was once a 3-foot-tall ape-man (猿人).

C. discuss the value of an ape-man D. report a coming event
48. What does the words “a replica” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A . A painting of the skeleton B. A photograph of Lucy
C. A copy of the skeleton. D. A written record of Lucy.
49. How many cities has Lucy’s U.S. tour plan already included?

“Look it up in the dictionary” is the usual comment when people are in doubt about the meaning or spelling of a word. Dictionaries are considered the final authority on these matters as well as on pronunciations and other facts about a word.
Until a few hundred years ago, however, people could not “look it up” because there were no English dictionaries. The ancient Greeks and Romans and the scholars of the Middle Ages had made lists of Latin and Greek words. 51 The first great English dictionary listing both common and uncommon words was written by Samuel Johnson in 1755.
In America, the most famous name in dictionary writing is that of Noah Webster. He stressed American rather than British ways of speaking. His great dictionary, which first appeared in 1828, has been republished many times. 52 The latest edition is still considered “the” dictionary. It defines over 450,000 words, including radar, television and many others undreamed of by Webster.
53 The huge ones that rest on stands in libraries are called unabridged, meaning “not shortened.” They tell not only a word’s meaning and spelling but also its pronunciation, origin, history, part of speech, grammatical forms, and ways of use. The smaller ones do not provide all this information.
54 A bilingual（两种语言的） dictionary, such as a Spanish-English dictionary, translates words from one language into another. A thesaurus（分类词汇） lists other words that mean the same as each listed word. A gazetteer lists place names, and a glossary is a small dictionary in a book defining technical words in that book. There are also dictionaries of scientific terms and ones on many other topics. There is even a dictionary of slang. 55 The dictionary is one of our most valuable language tools.
A. Each time, it has been updated.
B. General dictionaries are not the only kind.
C. Thus there are many kinds of special dictionaries.
D. In a general dictionary, each word may have multiple meanings.
E. Dictionaries that list all kinds of words are known as general dictionaries.
F. Over the previous 150?years more than 20 dictionaries had been published.
G. But it was not until 1604 that a book of uncommon English words appeared.

When we learn English, we always find we have difficulties in remembering the names of the months. Therefore, if we know something about the history of the months, possibly it won’t be very harder for us to remember them. The following is one of example. January named after God Janus. He was a strange god because he has two faces. He could look in two directions. He could look forward or backward at the same time. He was the god of endings and beginnings. January is the month on which one looks forward to the New Year and it’s also a period of time how people think about the past year.
Now can you share with us the stories about rest of the months?

In the picture, two goats are tied to each other with a rope. They both see some grass in opposite directions, and try to pull to get their own food. They are unsuccessful, because the rope is too short to allow them to eat the food at the same time.
The picture is trying to tell us that cooperation is better than conflict. Both of the goats want their food at the same time, which has formed a conflict between them. However, if they decide to cooperate and eat the grass on the left first, and then the grass on the right, they will both be able to get their food. Thus things will turn into a "win-win" situation.
Therefore, remember that sometimes our goal is not that we get something and the other gets nothing, but that all people get what they want. Cooperation will benefit everyone.
