It's hard to avoid looking like a fool on April Fool's Day. On April 1st each year, people play jokes on each other. Classmates sometimes tie each other's shoelaces to their chairs and desks. Teachers make a surprise shout that scares students before they realize it's only a joke.
Newspapers and radio stations often announce fake stories, for example, a UFO lands in New York City. No one seems to know where this holiday came from, but people have celebrated it around the world for hundreds of years.
On April Fool's Day, a group of students in my high school played a very funny trick on teachers. They bought some chickens and set them free in our schoolyard. The chickens ran all around the school.
Teachers ran after the chickens and tried to catch them. Finally, they caught four of them. But the chickens wore numbered tags around their necks. The teachers had only caught chickens No. 1, 2, 3, and 5. Where was No. 4 chicken
The teachers looked and looked. Then they realized that the students had played a joke on them: there were only four chickens in the first place! The students had tricked them with the numbers on the chickens.
It is a long time since I was in high school, but that April Fool's Day remained one of my favorite memories from those years.

If you are hungry, what do you do Have your favorite meal and stay quiet after that. Just like your stomach, your mind is hungry, too. But it never lets you know, because it’s busy thinking about your dream lover, favorite star and many such things. So your brain just pays attention to your needs and never lets itself grow. When your mind stops growing, your creativity(创造力) stops, too. This is why we all sometimes think “What happens next ” “Why can’t I think ” “Why am I always given the difficult problems ” Well, this is because we always use our brain for thinking of meaningless(无意义的) things.
Hunger of the mind can be actually satisfied(满足的) through reading, because reading has been the most educative(教育的) tool used by us from the childhood. You have a large number of books, and they will answer your questions. When you read a book, you run your eyes through the lines, and your mind tries to explain it to you. The interesting part of the book is always stored in your mind. The more books you read, the wider your mind will open up. Also, this improves your creativity.
Actually, I used to have trouble in speaking English well, but as I read, I have made great progress. So join me and give food to your mind by reading, reading and more reading. Now what are you waiting for Go, get a book, and let me know!
43. According to this passage, we sometimes have trouble thinking because ________
A. we eat too much B. we don’t have a good sleep
C. we think of too many meaningless things D. we are too busy
44. We could ________ when our mind is hungry.
A. eat a big meal B. read a book C. watch TV D. chat with friends
45. The passage mainly tells us that reading can ________
A. bring us some problems B. make us think of meaningless things
C. get your favorite meal D. open up your mind
46. Accordig to the passage, we can remember the ________ part when we read a book.
A. educative B. interesting C. meaningless D. difficult

Last year, more than 500 students from different colleges took the test of “elephant driving license” at Yunnan College. Some of the students got an “elephant riding license” in Yunnan Province.
The license has the driver’s information on the left page and the elephant’s information on the right. Each elephant has its own name, such as “Shaobaogu” “Shaoerkuai” and “Xiaoyangyu”. Most of them are the names of food. So, can the students really ride an elephant with the license
Of course not. In fact, the license is a gift from the college to its new students. The teachers of the college wanted to tell their students to protect wildlife by doing this. They said that wild Asian elephants are under first-class protection in our country. Only less than 300 elephants remain. The students should never ride them. They are duty to learn to protect them, because they’re in great danger.
A group of elephants traveled north and finally came back to their home in Yunnan last year. They drew attention all over the world. And some people in other provinces think people in Yunnan go to school or work by riding an elephant. But actually, they don’t do that. The teachers of the college came up with this good idea. They hope to pass on the idea of protecting the Asian elephants to more people.
Volunteering with Asian elephants is the perfect way to discover the beauty of Asia. And we are supposed to protect one of the symbolic animals of the Asian culture at the same time.
47.Where do most of the elephants’ names come from
A. Great colleges. B. Popular food. C. Interesting games. D. Famous places.
48.What can the license help students do
A. Drive a car. B. Ride an elephant.
C. Feed the elephants. D. Learn to protect elephants.
49.What can we know from the text
A.The students can ride an elephant with the license.
B.All college students in Yunnan have an “elephant riding license”.
C.Students can buy an “elephant riding license” from their teachers.
D.Wild Asian elephants are in great danger in our country.
50.What does the writer want to tell us
A.How to get an “elephant riding license”.
B.People should learn to protect elephants.
C.New college students should learn special skills.
D.How to protect elephants and other wildlife.

During the Tang Dynasty, Emperor Taizong asked Feng Deyi to look for talented people. 51 “I tried my best, but there are not unusual people at all.” Feng said.
“People are like tools. What we need to do is to make good use of their talent. You should check yourself for not noticing talented people. 52 ” said the emperor.
It is really true that each tool has a specific use. 53 We can’t use a knife as chopsticks. Like a tool, each person has a special talent. Nobody is perfect. We can’t expect a person to be good at everything.
(
A good example is Ma Zhou, who grew up in a poor
family.
However, several months passed, he didn’t find
anyone.
A knife is made to cut things while chopsticks are made to pick up
food.
How could you say that there are no talented people in our
country
He helped deal with difficult problems and became a famous
person.
)With this idea in mind, Emperor Taizong discovered many talented people of different backgrounds. He offered them important positions, which helped them make the most of their talents. 54 Ma gave a lot of useful advice, so Emperor Taizong offered him a position and promoted ( 晋 升 ) him many times. 55 During that period, the important officials around Emperor Taizong, such as Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, Li Jing, all were the brightest and the best of the time with their own strong points.Emperor Taizong’s talented people helped the society develop and created a “golden age”.

When I was a child, my parents always told me that I should never talk to strangers. These were part of a whole list of things I should never do: Never accept food or candy from strangers; never get in a car with strangers and so on.
But if we don't start a conversation with strangers, we will never make new friends. We will never get a job. ①We may miss the joy that comes from talking with strangers. And the more people you know, the more chances you can get.
The following passage offers you some advice on how to break the ice.
Don't just stare at your shoes. Go and say “Hi” to that new guy. It will be easier to break the ice if you know more about different cultures.
British: Beautiful day, isn't it
The weather in Britain is changeable. So, it is one of the topics the British care about most. And there's a simple rule: say “Yes” whether you agree with the person's idea on the weather or not. ②That's because the British start a conversation with the weather so that they can continue their talk.
French: Where did you go on holiday
To talk with a French person, the safest way is to ask his or her last holiday. French students enjoy a 10 to 15 day holiday every two months. French employees (雇员) get more than six weeks of holidays per year.
American: So, where are you from
The US is so big and people move so often that the location is always a source(来源) of a talk. You can try to find a connection with the places they're from. For example, if someone is from Los Angeles, you can say: “Oh, I have a friend ③ studied there.”

How to live a green life
Everyone can make small changes in their lifestyle and help reduce pollution and waste.
First, we can ride bikes or walk to school rather than going by car, as this can help reduce air pollution. Second, we should turn off the lights when going out as well as turn off the tap when we brush our teeth. Besides, we shouldn’t use plastic bags when we go shopping, because plastic is harmful to the environment. Last but not least, we need to plant more trees and flowers to make the environment greener.
If we keep doing this, I believe the environment will be better and better. Let’s do everything we can to live a green life and protect our planet.
