The World's Largest Insect
This giant insect can be used as a toy.?
A child ties one end of a string to a stick and the other end around the "neck" of an insect. Holding the stick, the child lets the insect go. With a loud whirring sound, the insect takes off, pulling the string in a large curve over the child's head. The child laughs as the stick jumps around.
The child is African, and the toy is the African Goliath beetle, the largest insect in the world.? The Goliath is a true insect because it has six legs and a body that is divided into three parts. Like all beetles, it has two pairs of wings. The front pair are thick and stiff and protect the back pair, which are soft. It is these soft back wings that make the beetle fly forward. They also cause the loud whirring sound the beetle makes when it flies. To steer, the beetle twists and turns its legs the same way you steer a bike by turning its front wheel.?
African children often use the Goliath beetle as a toy. Although it is over 15 centimeters long, it is quite harmless.? 1. The African Goliath beetle is _______.?? A. the world's largest insect? B. a toy used in many parts of the world? C. the only insect found in Africa? D. the world's smallest insect? 2. What made the whirring sound that the child heard? A. The curved string. ???? B. The beetle's soft wings.? C. The beetle's six legs. ???? D. The beetle's body.? 3. We know the Goliath beetle is a true insect because it _______.?? A. makes a whirring sound when it flies??? ? B. has both soft and hard wings? C. has six legs and a body with three parts ? D. can fly?

Chinese high school students have the longest study hours compared to their peers (同龄人) in Japan, the US and the Republic of Korea, a survey conducted by the four countries said.
The survey, released by the China Youth and Children Research Center (CYCRC) on Monday, was jointly conducted with institutions in the four countries in September—October of 2008. It covers nearly 4,000 students in senior high schools and vocational high schools in the four countries.
About 78.3 percent of Chinese students said they spend more than eight hours at school and 56.7 percent said they study at least two more hours each day at home. By contrast, only 24.7 percent of their peers in the US, 20.5 percent in Japan and 15.4 percent in Korea study more than two hours after school.
Around 60 percent of all students surveyed said their burden for studies was the heaviest; however, the Japanese felt their burden was the worst with respondents (应答者) reaching 79.2 percent.
Among the five biggest headaches for young people in the four countries were: over－scheduling ranked first, followed by a boring leisure life, unsatisfied appearance, little time for exercise and making friends, and no spare money.
“Moderate (适度的) study pressure can better drive students to develop, however, too much will squeeze (挤) their development space, and can even cause harm to their physical and psychological health,” the survey said.
“Balancing their studies and all－round development is a very important task,” it said.
4. What would be the best title for the text?
A. Chinese High School Students Study More
B. High School Students Need More Rest
C. Heavy Burdens of High School Students
D. Big Headaches of High School Students
5. Which of the following is NOT true about the survey?

B. It was conducted in four countries.
C. Nearly 4 000 students took part in it.
D. It was done only in senior high schools.
6. Which of the following troubles the high school students most?
A. Being busy. B. Feeling bored.
C. Lacking pocket money. D. Feeling unsatisfied with their teachers.
7. According to the survey, __________.
A. study pressure is harmful to students' health
B. students need to achieve all-round development
C. the Chinese students felt their burden for studies was the heaviest
D. most students are suffering from physical and psychological health problems

The world we live in gets more mechanized every year. Some countries which were mainly agricultural a hundred years ago have now become industrial. New factories and towns have been built on good agricultural land. There are now fewer farms to serve a much greater population, so these farms must be more efficient in order to produce as much food as possible. There is no place in the modern agricultural world for the inefficient farmer. Unfortunately, many of the picturesque aspects of farming are disappearing in the search for efficiency. The more tractors are used, the fewer horses are needed. Everyone agrees that horses are far more pleasant to look at than tractors. But they are less efficient. Cows are usually milked by machinery nowadays, and even pigs are fed automatically. There is not much art or poetry on the modern farm, and the old traditional idea of a farm as a slow, peaceful, romantic place is totally wrong nowadays.
The modern farmer has to be a mechanic, a scientist, an accountant and a gambler. The more mechanized farming becomes, the more expert the farmer has to be. He must understand what machinery is necessary for his kind of farm, and he must know how to use it efficiently. He must also understand the new technical advances in agriculture, and how to use chemical and synthetic products to improve his crops. The more workers a farmer employs, the more he must know about the problems of wages and taxes. As in any other industry，most modern farmers find it necessary to employ office staff to deal with these. But although he has more modern equipments and far more scientific aids than his grandfather had, the farmer is still dependent upon the weather. As he can never be sure what the weather will do, he must be prepared to take risks, and face the possibility of losing everything.
8. The underlined word “mechanic” means __________.
A. a skilled farmer B. a skilled person in using and repairing
C. a worker D. a driver
9. Why the idea of a farm as a slow, peaceful, romantic place is wrong nowadays?
A. Because nowadays, the world gets more mechanized.
B. Because cows are usually milked by machinery and pigs are fed automatically.
C. The fewer horses are needed.
D. No farm needs the inefficient farmer.
10. How to explain “The more mechanized farming becomes，the more expert the farmer has to be”?
A. With the development of agriculture, it needs farmers to become a skilled man to operate those agricultural machines.
B. With the development of agriculture, the farmer should be an accountant.
C. With the development of agriculture, the farmer should be mechanized.
D. With the development of agriculture, the farmer has to be a driver.
11. Which of the following is NOT TRUE?
A. The weather is a very important factor in agriculture.
B. It’s necessary for modern farmers to have modern equipments.
C. The farmers don’t have to know about their wages and taxes today.
D. Nowadays, it’s necessary for farmers to use office staff.
D
Living and dealing with kids can be a tough job these days, but living and dealing with parents can be even tougher.
If I have learned anything in my 16 years, it is that communication is very important, both when you disagree and when you get along. With any relationship, you need to let other person know how you are feeling. If you are not able to communicate, you drift apart. When you are mad at your parents, or anyone else, not talking to them doesn’t solve anything.
Communication begins with the concerns (关心) of another. It means that you can’t just come home from school, go up to your room and ignore (不理睬) everyone. Even if you just say “Hi”, and see how their day was for five minutes, it is better than nothing.
If you looked up the word “communication” in a dictionary, it would say “the exchange of ideas, the conveyance （表达）of information, correspondence （通信）, means of communication: a letter or a message”. To maintain (保持) a good relationship, you must keep communication strong. Let people know how you feel, even if it’s just by writing a note.
When dealing with parents, you always have to make them feel good about how they are doing as a parent. If you are trying to make them see something as you see it, tell them that you’ll listen to what they have to say, but ask them politely to listen to you. Yelling or walking away only makes the situation worse.
This is an example: one night, Sophie went to a street party with her friends. She knew she had to be home by midnight after the fireworks, but she didn’t feel she could just ask to go home. That would be rude. After all, they had been nice enough to take her along with them. Needless to say, she was late getting home. Her parents were mad at first, not when Sophie explained why she was late, they weren’t as mad and let the incident go. Communication is the key factor here. If Sophie’s parents had not been willing to listen, Sophie would have been in a lot of trouble.
Communication isn’t a one-way deal: it goes both ways. Just remember: if you get into a situation like Sophie’s, telling the other person how you feel-listening is the key factor to communication. 12. In the writer’s view, dealing with parents is __________ than with children. A. more difficult??? B. easier
C. more uninteresting?? D. more interesting 13. The main idea of the second paragraph is __________. A. the importance of friendship B. to make your feeling known to others C. the importance of communication D. the disagreement between generations 14. When parents and children are in communication, the key to a happy relationship is that __________. A. children should always obey their parents
B. they should be equal C. parents play the leading part
D. both make the opposite know their feelings 15. The example in this passage proves that ___________. A. Sophie’s parents are willing to listen to her B. Sophie is very polite to her parents C. Sophie did well in explaining her being late D. communication is the solution (解决办法) to misunderstanding

Question: I have recently got a senior position within my company. One of my new tasks is to make monthly progress reports on my department in front of other senior officials. During my first meeting, I presented and then opened the floor to questions.
1 . My first reaction was to answer defensively. Later, I realized that I shouldn’t feel that way. But how can I keep cool and effectively answer questions in this type of settings?
