It doesn’t matter when and how much a person sleeps , but everyone needs some rest to stay alive. That’s what all doctors thought , until they heard about Herpin. Herpin, it was said , never slept. Could this be true? The doctors decided to see this strange man themselves.
Herpin was 90 years old when the doctors came to his home in New Jersey. They thought for sure that he got some sleep of some kind. So they stayed with him and watched every movement he made. But they were surprised . Though they watched him hour after hour and day after day, they never saw him sleeping. In fact , he did not even own a bed. He never needed one.
The only rest that Herpin sometimes got was sitting in a comfortable chair and reading newspapers. The doctors were puzzled by this strange continuous sleeplessness. They asked him many questions, hoping to find an answer. They found only one answer that might explain his condition. Herpin remembered some talk about his mother having been injured several days before he was born. But that was all. Was this the real reason? No one could be sure. Herpin died at the age of 94.
46. The main idea of this passage is that_____
large numbers of people do not need sleep
a person was found who actually didn’t need any sleep
everyone needs some sleep to stay alive
people can live longer by trying not to sleep
47. The doctors came to visit Herpin, expecting_____
to cure him of his sleeplessness
to find that his sleeplessness was not really true
to find out why some old people did not need any sleep
to find a way to free people from the need of sleeping
48. After watching him closely, the doctors came to believe that Al herpin_____
needed some kind of sleep
was too old to need any sleep
needed no sleep at all
often sleep in a chair
49. One reason that might explain Herpin’s sleeplessness was _____
his mother’s injury before he was born
that he had gradually got rid of the sleeping habit
his magnificent physical condition
that he hadn’t got a bed
50. Al Herpin’s condition could be regarded as ______

Unit 4 Wildlife protection
Part One: Teaching Design (第一部分：教学设计)
Period 1: A sample lesson plan for reading
(HOW DAISY LEARNED TO HELP WILDLIFE)
Aims
To talk about endangered species
To read about wildlife protection
Procedures
I. Warming up by learning about animals
Look at the photos below and listen to me telling you about the animals, the endangered animals.
The Giant Panda is a mammal now usually classified in the bear family, Ursidae, that is native to central China.
The Giant Panda lives in mountainous regions, like Sichuan and Tibet. The Giant Panda is the symbol of the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), a conservation organization. Toward the latter half of the 20th century, the panda also became somewhat of a national emblem for China, and is now used in Chinese gold coins.
Giant Pandas are an endangered species, threatened by continued loss of habitat and by a very low birthrate, both in the wild and in captivity. About 1,600 are believed to survive in the wild.
Milu deer is a Chinese deer. It has a long tail, wide hooves, and branched antlers. Another Chinese name for it is “four unlikes,.” because the animals were seen as having the horns of a stag, the neck of a camel, the foot of a cow, and the tail of an ass.
These animals were first made known to Western science in the 19th century, by Father Arm and David, a French missionary working in China. At the time, the only surviving herd was in a preserve belonging to the Chinese emperor. The last herd of Milu deers that remained in China were eaten by Western and Japanese troops that were present at the time of the Boxer Rebellion.
These deer are now found in zoos around the world, and a herd of Milu deer was reintroduced to Dafeng Reserve, China in the late 1980s. They are classified as “critically endangered.” in the wild, but do not appear to have suffered from a genetic bottleneck because of small population size.
A tiger is a large cat famous for its beautiful fur of orange striped with black. Tigers live in Asia and are becoming very rare. This is due to people hunting them for their fur and destroying the forests they live in.
II. Pre-reading
Defining wildlife
What does the world wildlife mean?
The term wildlife refers to living organisms that are not in any way artificial or domesticated and which exist in natural habitats. Wildlife can refer to flora (plants) but more commonly refers to fauna (animals). Needless to say, wildlife is a very general term for life in various ecosystems. Deserts, rainforests, plains, and other areas—including the most built-up urban sites—all have distinct forms of wildlife.
Humankind has historically tended to separate civilization from wildlife in a number of ways; besides the obvious difference in vocabulary, there are differing expectations in the legal, social, and moral sense. This has been reason for debate throughout recorded history. Religions have often declared certain animals to be sacred, and in modern times concern for the environment has provoked activists to protest the exploitation of wildlife for human benefit or entertainment.
Reading to the recording
Now turn to page 26, listening and reading to the recording of the text. Try to keep pace with the native reader, making your reading resemble that of the reader, in speed, in intonation and in pronunciation.
Reading and transforming
Now you are to read the text for information to fill in the form.
What did Daisy see where she was?
In Tibet in China
Zimbabwe
In thick rain forest
Reading and underlining
Next you are to read the text and underline all the collocations at the same time.
HOW DAISY LEARNED TO HELP WILDLIFE
not long ago, wake up, find…by one’s side, a flying chair, get dressed, put on one’s jeans, fly away to…, turn around, with a sad face, use…to make…, kill…for…, take…from under…, take one’s picture, become endangered, destroy the farm, take photos, apply to, hunt…for…, make money for…, as a result, in thick rain forest, protect…from…, rub…over…, a powerful drug, pay attention to…, take…home
III. Closing up by matching animals to five risk categories
Different endangered species appear on different endangered species lists. And people who are trying to protecting animal use the following five risk categories to group the unlucky animal.
Now in groups of four try to group all the unlucky animals found in China.
List of Unlucky animals found in China
中国不幸动物分类名录
EXTINCT(灭绝动物)-A species formerly indigenous to Canada that no longer exists anywhere.
EXTIRPATED（根绝动物）-A species no longer existing in the wild in Canada but occurring elsewhere.
ENDANGERED（濒危动物）-A species threatened with imminent extinction or extirpation throughout all or a significant portion of its Canadian range.
THREATENED（危急动物）-A species likely to become endangered in Canada if the factors affecting its vulnerability are not reversed.
VULNERABLE（弱势动物）-A species particularly at risk because of low or declining numbers, small range or for some other reason, but not a threatened species.
Period 2: A sample lesson plan for Learning about Language
(The Present Progressive Passive Voice)
Aims
To learn about The Present Progressive Passive Voice
To discover useful words and expressions
To discover useful structures.
Procedures
I. Warming up by acting a text play
Good morning class. To begin with we shall put our text HOW DAISY LEARNED TO HELP WILDLIFE on stage, that is, to act out our story. Now the class acting team with their text play of HOW DAISY LEARNED TO HELP WILDLIFE!
II. Discovering useful words and expressions
1. Doing vocabulary exercises
Turn to page 28 and do the vocabulary exercises 1, 2 and 3. You can simply write your answers in the blanks on the very page of 28.
2. Playing a game
Let’s go on to play the game described on the top of the page 29. The following sentences are to be passed on.
Plant native plants in your backyard.
Do not dump weeds in the bush.
Build a frog pond in your backyard.
Put your rubbish in the bin.
Leave your pets at home.
Do not take anything out of the park.
Encourage your friends to keep patches of bush as wildlife habitats.
Join a community group and offer to do voluntary work.
Find out about conservation activities happening in your local area.
Participate in local clean-up, tree planting and weed control activities.
Learn About Threatened Species
Look out for wildlife
Refuse to buy any rare or endangered plant or animal product.
Be alert and drive slowly at dawn and dusk in rural areas where wildlife may be active.
III. Studying The Present progressive Passive Voice
1. Passive Voice
The passive voice is used when focusing on the person or thing affected by an action.
The Passive is formed: Passive Subject + To Be + Past Participle
It is often used in business and in other areas where the object of the action is more important than those who perform the action. For Example: We have produced over 20 different models in the past two years. Changes to: Over 20 different models have been produced in the past two years.
If the agent (the performer of the action) is important, use “by.” For Example:
Tim Wilson wrote The Flight to Brunnswick in 1987.
The Flight to Brunnswick was written in 1987 by Tim Wilson.
Only verbs that take an object can be used in the passive.
The following chart includes sentences changed from the active to the passive in the principal tenses.
Active
Passive
Time Reference
They make Fords in Cologne.
Fords are made in Cologne.
Present Simple
Susan is cooking dinner.
Dinner is being cooked by Susan
Present Continuous
James Joyce wrote Dubliners.
Dubliners was written by James Joyces.
Past Simple
They were painting the house when I arrived.
The house was being painted when I arrived.
Past Continuous
They have produced over 20 models in the past two years.
Over 20 models have been produced in the past two years.
Present Perfect
They are going to build a new factory in Portland.
A new factory is going to be built in Portland.
Future Intention with Going to
I will finish it tomorrow.
It will be finished tomorrow.
Future Simple
2. Passive Verb Formation
The passive forms of a verb are created by combining a form of the “to be verb.” with the past participle of the main verb. Other helping verbs are also sometimes present: “The measure could have been killed in committee.” The passive can be used, also, in various tenses. Let’s take a look at the passive forms of “design.”
Tense
Subject
Auxiliary
Past Participle
Singular
Plural
Present
The car/cars
is

Past progressive
The car/cars
was being

IV. Reading and identifying
Since you are clear about Passive Verb Formation, go back to page 26 and scan the text for all the examples of The Present Progressive Passive Voice.
Our fur is being used to make sweaters like yours.
She was being watched by an excited elephant.
…
Now try to put the following sentences into The Present Progressive Passive Voice.

Period 3: A sample lesson plan for Using Language
(ABOUT DINOSAURS)
Aims
To read and listen about dinosaurs
To speak about helping the dodo
To write to the dodo
Procedures
I. Warming up by reading to the tape
Let’s warm up by reading aloud to the recording of the text
ABOUT DINOSAURS on page 30.
II. Listening about DINOSAURS
Now I’d like to tell you something about DINOSAURS
■In formation about Dinosaur
Dinosaur means terrible lizard in Latin. They were called that because people used to think dinosaurs were lizards, but they were not. Dinosaurs first appeared about 200 million years ago. 65 million years ago, many kinds of dinosaurs became extinct. Birds are a special type of dinosaur and they were the only kind to live until today.
There were many kinds of dinosaurs. Some ate plants and some ate meat. The largest dinosaurs were plant-eaters like apatosaurus and brachiosaurus. They were the largest animals to ever walk on dry land.
Other plant-eaters had special weapons to help them fight off the meat-eaters. For example, triceratops had three horns on its face, ankylosaurus was covered in boney plates, and stegosaurus had spikes on its tail.
The meat-eaters all ran around on their back legs like people do. Some were very large, like tyrannosaurus, and some were small, like compsognathus. It was the smaller sized meat-eaters that evolved into birds. One of the first birds was archaeopteryx, but it looked half like a dinosaur.
There were large flying reptiles that lived at the same time as dinosaurs called pterosaurs, but they were not closely related to dinosaurs. There were also many kinds of large reptiles that could swim, like ichthyosaurs and pleisiosaurs, but they weren’t closely related to dinosaurs either.
III. Reading and copying
Next we shall go back to the text ABOUT DINOSAURS on page 30 again to read it and copy down all the expressions into your notebook.
Useful phrases from ABOUT DINOSAURS
During the history of the earth, live on the earth, tens of millions of years ago, came into being, eggs of five species, a rare new species, a bird-like dinosaur, climb tree, tell…from…, die out, hit the earth, put…into the air, get hot, live on, know for sure, in the same way, listen to the story about…, disappear from…
IV. Reading to answer questions
Read the questions in the table below and scan the text to answer them.
When did dinosaurs live on earth?
When did dinosaurs die out?
How did dinosaurs die out?
V. Listening about the dodo
Have you ever heard of the dodo, an animal that has also disappeared from the earth?
The Mauritius Dodo (Raphus cucullatus, called Didus ineptus by Linnaeus), more commonly just Dodo, was a metre-high flightless bird of the island of Mauritius. The Dodo, which is now extinct, lived on fruit and nested on the ground.
Next we are going to listen to the tape and do exercises 1 and 2 on page 30 on dodo.
VI. Speaking in pairs about helping the dodo
Zhao Yannan: The Dodo was driven to extinction by sailors when they discovered the island of Maritius in the 17th century. It is one of the first documented human induced extinctions.
Zhao Yanfei: What a pity that we can not find any dodo now. Imagine we are with the dodo, Yannan, what could we do to help it?
Zhao Yannan: Then I would intend to hide it in a cave, so that sailors could not find it.
Zhao Yanfei: If I were there, I would try to trap them as they were catching and killing the dodo. Putting man who is harmful to the dodo in a cage and attacking him is the best way to protect and save the dodo.
Zhao Yannan: I’d like to and I’m ready to, teach man how to be friends with animals, including the dodo. The man and the dodo can be living side by side on the earth. They can be happy together.
ZhaoYanfei: I would rather not tell you what I think of man. He is selfish and cruel. He cares only for himself and that is why so many animals have disappeared from this earth. Putting the bad men in a cage is the only way out, I am sure.
VII. Closing down by writing to the dodo
All right now, boys and girls, to end this period next you are to write a letter or an email to the dodo telling him what you are going to do to save him.
By 1681, the last dodo died, and the species became extinct. After hundreds of years, no one recalled what a dodo bird was, and it was regarded as a myth invented by imaginative sailors. It wasn’t until the 1900’s when the bones were found that the dodo was believed to be real.
Today, the dodo bird is a symbol of the harm humans can bring to other living things if we are irresponsible.

Section 1: A text structure analysis of HOW DAISY LEARNED TO HELP WILDLIFE
I. Type of writing and summary of the idea
HOW DAISY LEARNED TO HELP WILDLIFE
Type of writing
This is a piece of narrative writing.
Main idea of the passage
Daisy went by flying chair to Tibet, Zimbabwe and a certain thick rain forest to visit endangered animals, which made her know a lot about some destructive as well as protection behaviors that people had done to wildlife.
Idea of 1st paragraph
Daisy arrived in Tibet to see a sad antelope to learn that in three years they may all be gone.
Idea of 2nd and 3rd paragraphs
Daisy came to Zimbabwe to see an excited elephant and learned that his family was being protected by man.
Idea of 4th paragraph
Daisy landed in a thick rain forest to find a clever monkey and learned that no rain forest, no animals and no drugs.
Idea of 5th paragraph
Daisy returned home learning so much about wildlife.
II. A text play（课本剧）of HOW DAISY LEARNED TO HELP WILDLIFE
Daisy: (waking) Who are you? Why are you here in my bedroom?
Chair: Excuse me. I am the famous Flying Chair.
Daisy: What are you here for?
Chair: I am here to take you on a trip. Where would you go?
Daisy: I’d like to see animals that gave furs to make this sweater of mine.
Chair: During the history of the earth there have lived on the earth many, many kinds of animals. But many have disappeared because of various reasons.
Daisy: Yes, you are right. I learned from books that tens of millions of years ago, a rare new species of dinosaur, a bird-like dinosaur, came into being. It could climb trees and was very lovely. Then it died out because something hit the earth suddenly, putting much dust into the air. So the earth got too hot for the animal to live on.
Chair: But no one knows for sure what caused all those ancient animals to die out, disappearing from the earth for ever.
Daisy: I shall get dressed and put on my jeans and sweater soon. Then let’s fly away to Tibet China to see the antelopes.
Chair: Here we are in Tibet! Turn around. There is a antelope there with a sad face.
Antelope: Hello, friends. Welcome to my home. You two look so friendly, unlike those who came to kill us to use our furs make sweaters.
Daisy: Sweaters like the one I am wearing? Oh, I am terribly sorry.
Antelope: The bad men came in groups to kill my family members for the wool. They took it from under our stomach.
Chair: I shall take a picture of you and the antelope, to be shown to all the world people.
Daisy: Come Antelope! Let’s have a picture taken together. We shall be off to Zimbabwe too see elephants there.
Chair: Here we are. This is a national park for animals. People came to see them and help with them.
Daisy: Look, there comes an excited elephant. Hello, dear Elephant! Why are you so excited?
Elephant: We are all excited because things have changed a lot here.
Chair: Why? What happened?
Elephant: We became endangered years ago. People came to destroy the farm and kill us for trunks. They are actually our long teeth.
Daisy: I have heard of that. They take your teeth and make them into art work.
Chair: Man is really selfish and disgusting. But Daisy is a nice girl. Now let’s have a picture taken together.
Elephant: Those bad men used to come and kill us. But now are well protected by the government and the good people. We are happy now.
Daisy: Good- bye, Elephant!
Chair: Take care, Daisy. We shall hurry to our last stop, the thick rain forest in South America.
Daisy: Wow! Look to the right. A lovely mother monkey is there. She seems to be rubbing herself. Hi, Monkey Mother! What are you doing?
Monkey: I am rubbing a millipede insect over my body to protect myself from the mosquitoes.
Daisy: How intelligent you are!
Monkey: It contains a powerful drug which affects mosquitoes. There are lots of plants and little animals in the rain forest here which can be helpful to man.
Daisy: Is that so? I am going to take photos of all those useful plants and animals. I will show the photos to my classmates so that they understand you lovely animals and the forest better. I will apply to be allowed to work here to help you get a better living in the forest.
Monkey: Thank you so much! Some unfriendly people came to catch us, to put us in the zoo in the city. We monkeys prefer living in the forest.
Daisy: Good- bye, Monkey! I will report what I learned on this trip to WWF. I will invite all my schoolmates to join us in the protecting project. The future is to be bright for both you the animals and us the human beings. See you!

II. What is WWF?
WWF, the global conservation organization was originally known as World Wildlife Fund.
In 1986, it changed its name to World Wide Fund For Nature (except in the US and Canada) to better represent the spread of its work. It was founded on September 11, 1961 by, among others, the biologist Sir Julian Huxley, Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands, Max Nicholson and the naturalist and painter Sir Peter Scott who designed the original black and white panda logo. It is one of the world’s largest environmental organizations, with a network of offices in nearly 60 countries and a secretariat in Gland, Switzerland.
Probably the most famous name associated with WWF is HRH The Duke of Edinburgh. The Duke was the first President of WWF-UK from its foundation in 1961 to 1982, International President of WWF (1981-1996), and is now President Emeritus.
WWF is dedicated to stopping the degradation of the planet’s natural environment and building a future in which humans live in harmony with nature, by:
conserving the world’s biological diversity,
ensuring that the use of renewable natural resources is sustainable,
promoting the reduction of pollution and wasteful consumption.
WWF has a factual, science-based approach to conservation, which focuses on six priority issues of global concern: forests, oceans and coasts, fresh water, endangered species, and the insidious threats of toxic chemicals and climate change. For each of these issues, WWF has developed measurable targets and runs more than 1,200 field projects around the world in any year.
III. Antelope
The antelope are a group of herbivorous African animals of the family Bovidae, distinguished by a pair of hollow horns on their heads. These animals are spread relatively evenly throughout the various subfamilies of Bovidae and many are more closely related to cows or goats than each other. There are many different species of antelope, ranging in size from tiny to very big. They typically have a light and elegant figure, slender, graceful limbs, small cloven hoofs, and a short tail. Antelope have powerful hindquarters and when startled they run with a peculiar bounding stride that makes them look as though they are bouncing over the terrain like a giant rabbit. Some species of antelope can reach speeds of 60 miles per hour (100 kilometers per hour), making them among the fastest of land animals.
IV. Elephant
Elephantidae (the elephants) is the only extant family in the order Proboscidea. Elephantidae has three living species: the Savannah Elephant and Forest Elephant (which were collectively known as the African Elephant) and the Asian Elephant (formerly known as the Indian Elephant). During the period of the ice age there were more species, which are now extinct.
Elephants are the largest living land mammals. At birth it is common for an elephant calf to weigh 100 kg (225 pounds). It takes 20 to 22 months for a baby elephant to mature to birth, the longest gestation period of any land animal. An elephant may live as long as 60 to 70 years. The largest elephant ever recorded was a male shot in Angola in 1974, weighing 12000 kilograms or 26400 pounds.
Prehistoric human beings have been known to eat elephants, as recent findings of animal remains in central China show. The elephant is now a protected animal, and consumption is prohibited around the world.
V. Monkey
A monkey is any member of two of the three groupings of simian primates. These two groupings are the New World and Old World monkeys. Because of their similarity to monkeys, apes such as chimpanzees and gibbons are sometimes incorrectly called monkeys. Also, a few monkey species have the word “ape.” in their common name. Because they are not a single coherent group, monkeys do not have any important characteristics that they all share and are not shared with the remaining group of simians, the apes.
Monkeys range in size from the Pygmy Marmoset, at 10 cm (4 inch) long (plus tail) and 120 g (4 oz) in weight to the male Mandrill, almost 1 metre (3 ft) long and weighing 35 kg (75 lb). Some are arboreal (living in trees), some live on the savanna; some eat fruit, some eat leaves, and some eat insects; although most have tails (sometimes prehensile), others do not; some have trichromatic colour vision like that of humans, others are dichromats or monochromats. Although both the new and old world monkeys, like the apes, have forward facing eyes, the faces of Old World and New World monkeys look very different. To understand the monkeys, therefore, it is necessary to study the characteristics of the different groups individually.

Plan to encourage more birds to visit the waste area near the park
There are few birds in our town and we would like to encourage them to return to live here. We found there was a dirty area near the park. We cleared all the rubbish away. Then we began to plan our new design for the area.
First, we made a plan and a drawing to show what the area would be like when it was finished.
Then we asked our parents to make the birdhouses and feeding trays.We decided that the bird tables should be made of wood because they will need to last a long time outside. The feeding trays should be put on the tables or hung from the braches of the trees so the birds can easily get at them. Also the bird watchers need to see the birdseating. The nesting boxes should be hung from the trees so the birds can feel safe about their eggs. Bird nests should not be put close to the ground or cats or other animals will be able to take the eggs. The water containers should be put in the open sir so they can be changed without the birds getting upset or too excited. The observers should be put behind low bushes so they can see the birds but not upset them.课件83张PPT。Wildlife ProtectionBackground InformationWhat is WWF?World Wildlife Fund 世界野生生物基金会world’s largest privately financed conservation organization

S1: I would like to help Bengi. He sounds so kind and obviously needs a lot of help.
S2: OK. I think it's a shame that animals like Bengi are forced to be violent in order to avoid humans. The problem is that people are very unkind to tigers when they want something like their fur or their bones.
S1: I agree. People should be more thoughtful. If Bengi hadn't written, we might have thought all tigers were violent. So Bengi must try not to give people an excuse to attack him.
S2: Yes, poor Bengi. He cannot win! If he attacks people, they will use that as an excuse to attack him. If he doesn't attack and is friendly to people, they will attack him anyway for his beautiful skin.S1: We had better write and tell him to hide as much as possible.
S2: Yes. And perhaps we can try to make people change their minds about tigers and learn to like them!1. Ideas to help Li Kun
1 give up eating fish
2 eat grass carp, big head and mackerel 3 eat those species which are not endangered.
2. Ideas to help Bengi 1 keep away from people 2 if you see people, do not be too friendly or too fierce he will attack you3. Ideas to help Zhao Jing

allowed to live freely

live/ grow in the wildSpeaking on P661. What else threatens birds besides oil spills?2. How can we help protect the birds?3. How can we help people understand the importance of protecting the environment so that birds can live in peace?
1. Telling people about the problem. It is possible that small boat owners do not know that they are responsible for most oil spills.2. Asking them to think how they can help to solve the problem. Perhaps they could buy only organic food rather than food grown using pesticides. Perhaps they could tell others to be more thoughtful about the environment.3. Asking the local government leaders to lead the way. Protect trees by reusing paper; allow wild plants to grow in some areas to encourage the insects and caterpillars that birds eat; protect local areas so birds cannot be hunted or killed.
4. Providing a bird-friendly area where birds can be observed but not hurt.Sample dialogue:
S1: How do you think we can protect birds? There seems little we can do in this area.
S2: What about trying to persuade people not to kill birds? We can make posters and put them around our local area. Perhaps the local government leaders will let us talk to people who like to hunt birds for sport.
S1: Do you think that will be possible?
S2: Well, it’s worth a try!
S1: I know what my mum can do. She can try and buy organic food from a good supermarket. Pesticides kill birds when they eat infected food, so if we buy organic food we know we are not poisoning the birds’ food.
S2: That’s a good idea! I’d also like to find an area where we could put bird nests so they can lay eggs in peace.S1: Yes, that’s a good idea too. Perhaps we can write a letter to our local government leaders to stop them cutting down so many trees in our neighborhood.
S2: Yes. How can the birds build nests without trees to put them in?
S1: What a lot of ideas! Let’s hear what the others have to say... 课件43张PPT。Reading IIDinosaur is an animal that we can not see on the earth now.

My friend, Chen Ting, and I have been doing some research on endangered animals. We found that the habitat of polar bears is disappearing because the ice at the North Pole is getting warmer. I worry that when is disappears altogether, there will be nowhere for the polar bears to live. Sample letter First, I suggest we are very careful with the energy we use. Global warming happens because we are putting too much carbon dioxide into the air. One of the ways we do this is by driving everywhere by car. So I suggest we think carefully before using our cars unnecessarily. Second, instead of using our cars we should think about traveling by bus or by train. These forms of transport are more environmentally friendly and do not put so much carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Third, we can join WWF which is fighting to save the habitat of the polar bear. We can raise money to help them by making and selling cakes, selling crafts or giving talent shows and charging money for our parents to watch. I hope you will support us in our fight to save the home of the Polar Bears.
Yours sincerely,

How men first learnt to invent words is unknown; 26 ,the origin of language is a mystery. All we really know is that men, 27 animals, somehow 28 certain sounds to express thoughts, actions, and things, 29 they could communicate with each other; and that later they agreed 30 certain signs, 31 letters, which could be combined to represent those sounds, and 32 could be written down. These sounds, 33 spoken, or written in letters, we call words. The 34 of words, then, lies in their associations---the things they bring up before our minds. Words become filled with 35 for us by experience. 36 we live, the more certain words recall to us the glad and sad events of our 37 and the more we read and learn, the more 38 words that mean something to us increases.

If you see overweight like eighty million other Americans, there is still hope for you.
What you need is to change your eating habits forever. You begin by keeping a complete record of what, where, when and how you eat. Once you understand your bad eating habits, you will find it easier to exchange them for good ones. So keep a diary answering the following questions:
What do I eat during a day? Record every bit of food and drink you put in your mouth. This includes that cracker you ate while opening the can of soup. It includes that Coca Cola you sipped from your friend’s glass. It includes your chewing gum. And remember when you stuck your finger I the peanut butter jar. Remember everything! Most people are astonished at what they eat and drink in one day. Behavior Change: Make a list of what you plan to eat during the day and follow your plan.
Where and when you eat? Do you eat standing or lying? Do you eat while cooking, reading watching TV or driving? Do you eat when upset, angry, worried, or hurried? Do you reward or punish yourself with food? Behavior Change: Eat three planned meals only. Sit up straight at your table. Do nothing but eat.
How do I eat ? Most of us eat on the run. When we eat fast , our stomachs don’t get the message that we are full. So we keep eating. Behavior Change: look at your food . Give yourself a chance to resist its sight and small. Chew slowly. Cut up your food into small pieces and eat one piece at a time. Let your food digest and listen to the message from your stomach before you reach for seconds.

A new plan for getting children to and from school is being started by a local government in Eastern England. This could end the worries of many parents fearful for their children’s safety on the roads.
Until now the local government have been prepared to provide bus services for children living more than three miles from their school, or sometimes less if special reasons existed. Now it has been decided that if a group of parents ask for help in organizing transport they will be prepared to go ahead, as long as the arrangement will not lose money and children taking part will be attending their nearest school.
The new plan is to be fired out this term for children living at Milton who attend Impington School. The children live just within the three-mile limit and the local government said in the past that they would not undertake to provide free transport to the school. But now they have agreed to offer a sum of money for a bus service from Milton to Impington School and back, a plan which has the support of the school’s headmaster. Between 50 and 60 parents have said they would like their children to take part. Final calculations have still to be carried out, but a government official has said the cost to parents should be less than ￡20 a term. They have been able to arrange the service at a low cost because there is already an agreement with the bus company for a bus to take children who live further away to Impington. The same bus would now just make one more journey to pick up the Milton children. The official said they would get in touch with other groups of parents who in the past had asked if transport could be provided for their children, to see if they would like to take part in the new plan.
50. What is the aim of the plan?
A. To prevent the students’ road accident.
B. To relieve the traffic pressure.
C. To save time for the parents and students.
D. To help the parents save money
51. How can the local government arrange the new bus service at a low cost?
A. By letting the bus run in the morning only.
B. By limiting the number of the students.
C. By getting the support from the headmaster.
D. By linking(连接) the new bus service with the existing one.
52. Which of the following is possible if the plan is carried out?
A. The bus company will make much more money.
B. The children can choose whatever school they like.
C. The parents can get rid of their worries.
D. The students in Impington school can have free bus rides.
53. This passage is most probably ______.
A. a personal letter B. an advertisement
C. a headmaster’s report D. a newspaper article
C
Grown-ups know that people and objects are solid. At the movies, we know that if we reach out to touch Tom Cruise, all we will feel is air. But does a baby have this understanding?
To see whether babies know objects are solid, T.Bower designed a method for projecting an optical illusion(视觉影像)of a hanging ball. His plan was to first give babies a real ball, one they could reach out and touch, and then to show them the illusion. If they knew that objects are solid, and they show surprise in their faces and reach out for the illusion and found empty air, they could be expected movements. All the 16-to 24-week-old babies tested were surprised when they reached for the illusion and found that the ball was not there.
Grown-ups also have a sense of object permanence. We know that if we put a box in a room and lock the door, the box will still be there when we come back. But does a baby realize that a ball that rolls under a chair does not disappear or go to never-never land?
Experiments done by bower suggest that babies develop a sense of object permanence when they are about 18 weeks old. In his experiments, Bower used a toy train that went behind a screen. When 16-week-old and 22-week-old babies watched the toy train disappear behind the left side of the screen, they looked to the right, expecting it to reappear. If the experimenter took the train off the table and lifted the screen, all the babies seemed surprised not to see the train. This seems to show that all the babies had a sense of object permanence. But the second part of the experiment showed that this was not really the case. The researcher substituted(替换) a ball for the train when it went behind the screen. The 22-week-old babies seemed surprised and looked back to the left side for the train. But 16-week-old babies did not seem to notice the switch(更换). Thus, the 16-week-old babies seemed to have a sense of “something permanence,” while the 22-week-old babies had a sense of object permanence related to a particular object.
54. The passage is mainly about ______.
A. babies’ sense of sight B. effects of experiments on babies
C. babies’ understanding of objects D. different tests on babies’ feelings
55. In Paragraph 3, “object permanence” means that when out of sight, an object ______.
A. still exists B. keeps its shape C. still stays solid D. is beyond reach
56. What did Bower use in his experiment?
A. A chair B. A screen C. A film D. A box
57. Which of the following statements is true?
A. The babies didn’t have a sense of direction.
B. The older babies preferred toy trains to balls
C. The younger babies liked looking for missing objects.
D. The babies couldn’t tell a ball from its optical illusion.
