Gilbert joined the Science Club last summer．One day he was handed a piece of paper，a block of wood and four wheels；he was told to go home and   1   them all to “dad”．However，Gilbert's mom knew that his dad wasn't good at making things and decided that she would read the   2   and let Gilbert do the work．A few days later the block of wood was turning into a car that Gilbert    3   named “Blue Lightning”．Then he and his mother went to a car race together．But when they   4  there，Gilbert found that his car was the only one that had not been made by a “father-son” partnership（合作）．

The race began．One by one the cars were knocked out until it   5    to the final between Gilbert and Jimmy．Just before the race，Gilbert asked   6   they could stop for a minute so that he could make a wish．After a long minute，Gilbert said that he was   7  ．

People cheered as the race began．Jimmy stood with his father and watched their car racing down the road while Gilbert was surprised at the great    8    of his car as it rushed over the finishing line less than a second   9  Jimmy's．Gilbert jumped up and down with   10 ．

Soon the club manager came over and asked him．“So，Gilbert，your wish was to   11 ，right?” “Oh no，sir，” he replied．“I just wished that l wouldn’t cry if I lost．”

Children sometimes   12   adults with unexpected ideas．When Gilbert first saw the other cars，he didn't cry out，“Not fair! Other children had their fathers’ help!” Gilbert didn't wish for victory in the race；instead he wished for courage．

Each year Ben is glad when school is closed on Martin Luther King Jr. Day．Ben knows that this day honors an important man，but Ben does not feel connected to him．However，the small-world theory （理論） connects Ben to Dr. King．Ben's mom （0） has a close friend，Amy（1）．Amy’s uncle，Mark（2），once met and spoke to John Carter（3），the son of President Jimmy Carter（4）．Jimmy Carter knew Dr. King （5）． In a way，Ben is only “five people away” from Martin Luther King Jr．

 The small-world theory says that everyone in the world is connected through a short chain （鏈條）of people they know．Another name of this chain is degrees of separation．Each degree is a step that separates a person from someone he or she does not know．There are zero degrees of separation between a person and the people he or she knows directly．This means that there are zero degrees between Ben and his mom．There is one degree of separation when just one person separates someone from a person he or she does not know．Ben knows his mom，but he hasn't met her close friend Amy．Therefore，Ben is one degree away from Amy．As the chain continues，Amy's uncle，Mark，is two degrees．John Carter is three degrees，and his father is four degrees．Dr. King is five degrees away from Ben．The theory says that there are no more than six degrees of separation between any two people in the world．

The small-world theory has a lot to do with math．The theory assumes（假定）that each person knows 100 people. Each one of those 100 people knows 50 different people．Each of those 50 people knows another 50 people，and so on．When someone continues the calculation to six degrees，it is like this：100 × 50 × 50 × 50 × 50 × 50 = 31.25 × 10⁹．This number is greater than 31 billion（a billion = a thousand million）．There are over 6 billion people in the world．These numbers show it is possible that six degrees of separation could include everyone in the world．

Does the small-world theory work? No one has ever proved it．Maybe the theory just invites people to think a little more about their places in the world. ．

C．How people are connected in the world．     D．How the degrees of separation are set up．

4．We can learn from the article that                  ．

A．the small-world theory works

B．more research is needed to prove the theory

C．six degrees are needed to know the strangers

D．the writer's purpose is to help people find out their places

The Amazon rainforest is home to millions of different kinds of animals，plants，and birds．Most of the world's fresh water is here and the forest plants clean the Earth's air every day．

Chico was born near the Amazon town，Brazil，in 1944 and started working when he was very young．Like the rest of his family，the boy got the money by taking a little rubber from the trees in the forest．（The trees are not hurt when the rubber is taken．）The forest and its people lived together comfortably and peacefully．

But some people think too much about themselves and never think about the future．In 1980，the forest was burned to build roads，houses and factories．Chico was angry；he wanted to save the forest! He talked to the government workers，but they didn't listen to him．They were still clearing the rainforests to make quick，easy money．“Many voices are stronger than one，” he thought，so Chico held group meetings．He discovered that hundreds of people agreed with him．His hope grew．More people came together to try to stop the work of the forest clearers．Large areas of the forest were saved．Later he traveled to many other countries for international help．People soon became very much interested in this brave Brazilian．In the next few years Chico's name became famous all over the world．The government of Brazil started making plans to protect large areas of the Amazon rainforest．

But as Chico's dreams started coming true，someone stopped him in the only possible way．The famous forest fighter was murdered right outside his home on December 22，1988．Chico's life was cut short，but his brave new ideas continued in other people．One man changed the world's ideas．After his death，people around the world sent money to help Chico's work．
