Learning is natural. It begins as soon as we were born. Our  36  teachers are our families. At home we learn to talk and to  37  and feed ourselves.
Then we go to school. A teacher tells us   38   to learn and how to learn. Many teachers teach us, and we pass many   39  .Then people say we are   40  .
Are you really educated? Let’s think about the real meaning of   41   .Knowing facts does not   42 being able to solve(解決) problems. Solving problems   43   creativity(創(chuàng)造性),not just a good  44  .Some people who don’t know many   45 are good at solving problems.
Henry Ford is a good   46  .He left school at the age of 15. Later when his company could not build cars   47  enough, he solved the problem. He  48  of the assembly line(裝配線).
What does a good teacher do? Does he give students facts to  49  ? Well, yes, we must remember facts. But a good teacher   50  how to find answers. He brings us to the  51  of knowledge so we can drink for ourselves. When we are thirsty, we know where to go.
True learning combines(結(jié)合) intake(輸入) and output. We take information   52 our brains. Then we use it. Think of a   53  —it stores a lot of information, but it can’t think. It only obeys commands. A person  54  only remembers facts hasn’t really learned. Learning takes   55 only when a person can use what he knows.

Many of us don’t like what we see around us but the last thing we do is to change it. I think that is the beginning of failure and that is why what we hate remains around us. If you don’t want to see things around you, don’t just hope it’ll change.
We have such an amazing power of creativity inside us to change the way things work around us. Only lazy people go about and say that is the way things have been working. I’ve come to discover that things around us depend on our actions and inactions. What I mean is that the circumstances that we like depend only on the things we do and the things we don’t do.
Do you want your country to change? Start by changing the small things around you. Before you think too far about any small thing to change, your habit should be the first thing to change. Change what you think about and talk about. Can you remember how difficult it was for you to break a habit that you desired to break some years back? If so, then you must accept that things aren’t just going to change by a magic thought. If it isn’t so easy to change yourself when you want to, it isn’t going to be so easy to change the people around you.
I think the best way I’ve changed people around me is that I changed myself. When you change, they’ll change. Just change yourself and see how many people will tell you later that you are the one who changes them. That’s one simple way young people can change their nations.
小題1: According to the text, why do we fail to change what we don’t like? _______
A.Because we lack the power of creativity.
B.Because we never plan to change them.
C.Because they cannot be changed.
D.Because we don’t have the ability.
小題2:The author can change people around him because he has realized that     .
A.things around us decide what we do
B.the further you think, the better
C.his actions can affect things around him
D.he has to change the nation first
小題3:The third paragraph aims at     .
A.telling readers one of the author’s interesting experiences
B.giving an example to show how to change things around us
C.showing readers how to change a nation
D.a(chǎn)sking us to remember to change our nation
小題4:What can we learn from the text? ________
A.Circumstance creates a person.
B.It is never too late to change your habits.
C.A long journey begins with the first step.
D.Changing ourselves means changing others.

The hole in the earth's protective ozone layer(臭氧層)won't repair itself until about two decades later than had been expected, scientists announced.
The ozone layer blocks more than 90 percent of the sun's ultraviolet radiation(紫外線輻射), helping to make life on Earth possible. For many dacades, ozone was depleted(削減) by chlorine and bromine gas in the air. A hole in the ozone layer formed over the Southern Hemisphere.
Computer models had forecast that the hole would fill back in by 2050. An improved computer model forecasts the recovery won't occur until 2068. The model, fed with fresh data from statellites and airplanes, was supported by the fact that it accurately reproduced ozone levels in the Antarctic stratosphere(平流層)over the past 27 years.
The ozone hole is actually more of a broad region with less ozone than ought to occur naturally. It is not limited to Antarctica, as is often believed.
Over areas that are farther from the poles like Africa or the US, the levels of ozone are only three to six percent below natural levels. Over Antarctica, ozone levels are 70 percent lower in the spring. This new method allows us to more accurately estimate(估計)ozone-depleting gases over Antarctica, and how they will decrease over time, reducing the ozone hole area.
Paul Newman, a scientist,said that the ozone hole has not started to become smaller as quickly as expected. They figure it will not become much smaller until 2018, after which time the recovery should proceed more quickly. And the hole will not be filled in again until 2065.
小題1:According to the passage, the ozone layer _______
A.a(chǎn)bsorbs as much as sunlight as possible
B.protects man against ultraviolet radiation
C.controls the changes in temperature
D.prevents the production of carbon dioxide
小題2:The improved computer model is believable because _________
A.it was once proved by facts
B.it has been studied for 27 years
C.it was created by many scientists
D.it is related to satellites and airplanes
小題3:The underlined word “they” in the fifth paragraph refers to ________
A.the levels of ozone
B.ozone-depleting gases
C.the ozone holes
D.the areas far from the poles

Because plants cannot move or talk, most people believe that they have no feelings and that they cannot receive signals from outside. However, this may not be completely true.
People who studied plants have found out that plants carry a small electrical charge (電荷). It is possible to measure this charge with a small piece of equipment called “galvanometer”. The galvanometer is placed on a leaf off the plant, and it records any changes in the electrical field of the leaf. Humans have a similar field which can change when we are shocked or frightened.
A man called Backster used a galvanometer for his studies of plants and was very surprised at his results. He found that if he had two or more plants in a room and he began to destroy one of them - perhaps by pulling off its leaves or by pulling it out of its pot - then the galvanometer on the leaves of the other plants showed a change in the electrical field. It seemed as if the plants were signalling a feeling of shock. This happened not only when Backster started to destroy plants, but also when he destroyed other living things such as insects (昆蟲).
Backster said that the plants also knew if someone had destroyed a living thing some distance away, because they signalled when a man who had just cut down a tree entered the room.
Another scientist, named Sauvin, achieved similar results to Backster’s. He kept galvanometers fixed to his plants all the time and checked regularly to see what the plants were doing. If he was out of the office, he telephoned to find out about the signals the plants were sending. In this way, he found that the plants were sending out signals at the exact times when he felt strong pleasure or pain. In fact, Sauvin could cause a change in the electrical field of his plants over a distance of a few miles simply by thinking about them.
小題1:Backster was surprised at the results of his studies because _____.
A.he destroyed an insect
B.he destroyed a plant by pulling off its leaves
C.he found that plants could express feelings of shock
D.he found that plants could move and speak after all
小題2:The plants sent out signals _____.
A.only when Backster Started to destroy plants
B.when Backster destroyed plants or other living things
C.only when he destroyed things such as insects
D.only when Backster placed the galvanometer on the leaves of the plants
小題3:The scientist called Sauvin _____.
A.did not agree with Backster’s ideas
B.did not get the same sort of results as Backster did
C.got different results from Backster’s
D.found out some of the same things that Backster did
小題4:Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A.The electrical charge plants carry may shock or frighten us.
B.A tree will signal when it has been cut down.
C.Sauvin could make his plants send out signals some distance away.
D.Plants have feelings because they can receive signals without moving.

When you watch TV programs about wild animals, it is surprising to see how an antelope can escape a lion’s attack. In the wilderness, everyone has a stunt. Even plants have their own ways of fighting off enemies.
Over millions of years of evolution, plants have developed a unique defence system. Chemicals are wildly used for survival. By making their leaves, flowers, roots and fruits distasteful or poisonous(有毒的) to enemies, plants can fight back.
One such plant is the Golden Wattle tree. The British scientist David Cameron has found when an animal eats the tree’s leaves, the amount of poison increases in the other leaves. “It’s like the damaged leaves telephoning the others telling them to fight together against the enemy, ” he said.
The tree also sends defence messages to neighboring plants by giving out a special smell. Golden Wattle trees in the surrounding 45 meters will get the message and produce more poison within 10 minutes. Now, if an enemy eats too many of the trees’ leaves, it will die.
Every species of plant or tree is good at the production of a particular set of chemicals. A herbivore that can safely eat the leaves of one tree may be poisoned by its neighbor.
In this way, plants have developed not only individual defence system, but also shared it with others. This makes it impossible for a single animal to destroy even a small area of forest.
小題1: Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?
A.Plants Fight back with Poisons
B.Plants Can Kill Animals
C.Animals and Plants
D.Lions and Antelopes
小題2:According to the study, if one Golden Wattle tree is attacked by animals, it can________.
A.tell other trees to protect it
B.produce more poison within 10 minutes
C.send defence messages to the neighboring plants
D.kill the animals with its leaves
小題3: In this passage the underlined word “herbivore” probably means animals which ________.
A.live on both animals and plants B.feed on smaller animals
C.live on treesD.feed on plants or grass
小題4:The last paragraph of the passage suggests that this kind of defence system________.
A.does great harm to the animals B.does good to the forests
C.is helpful to some animalsD.harms the forests

Morocco is located at the northwest of Africa and is bordered in the north by the strait of Gibraltar and the Mediterranean Sea. The Atlantic Ocean keeps the west and the north of the country more temperate(溫和的). The country also offers the broadest plains some of which run along the Atlantic Ocean and the highest mountains in North Africa including the Atlas Mountains.
Starting with the symbol of Morocco, Marrakech is a beautiful city that has remained unspoiled by the volume of tourists that flock there each year. One of the finest monuments in Morocco is greatly benefited by this amount of tourism. Actually their high volume contributes in a positive way to preserve one of the greatest monuments of Morocco.
Fes is the third largest city in Morocco and is the capital of the Fes-Boulemane Region. It is separated into three parts, Fes el Bali more commonly known as the old walled city, now classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Fes-Jdid and the Ville Nouvelle. Fes el Bali is believed to be the largest car-free urban area in the world. Fes is a splendid place to visit to heighten the senses with the colours, smells and sounds.
Casablanca is an enormous city which is near the capital of Morocco and a place where any European would feel at home. Casablanca was made famous by the movie and gives the impression of being a romantic place. Unfortunately like many other popular cities around the world, it is crowded, noisy, and polluted, a far cry from the romantic ideal of the film. Because it has the biggest port, Casablanca being the important city of Morocco, has everything that the tourists need.
Asilah is a city situated on the Atlantic Ocean and is one of the most stunning(出色的) old cities of Morocco. The city is set along the cliffs which make it beautifully presented and an ideal place to continue adding to its economy by the fishermen.

Which animal has the fastest snapping jaw (顎)? If you're guessing a shark or perhaps a larger animal, you'll have to think smaller. The trap­jaw ant, which lives in Central and South America, moves its mouth parts at 35 to 63 meters per second. Another way to think about this is that the ant's jaws close at 125 to 233 kilometers per hour. That's 2, 300 times faster than the blink of an eye.
Scientists were able to measure the amazing jaw speed using high­speed video techniques. Sheila Patek, a biologist, says the key is that the jaws have a springy (有彈性的) system, which is critical in getting explosive (爆發(fā)性的) speeds.
Consider a bow and arrow. If you try to throw an arrow with your arm, it won't go very far. If you use a bow, elastic energy stored in the bow is released almost instantly when you release the arrow with your finger or a latch. The combination of the springy bow and latch mechanism is what makes the arrow zoom through the air.
Maybe even more amazing than how fast these ants grab food or even enemies is how they use this same energy to move. As the ant closes its jaws, it uses them to push off the ground—all faster than the eye can see without slow motion video. A snap of the jaw can send an ant up to 8.3 centimeters into the air. That's like someone who is 1.7 meters jumping 13 meters high! Not only can they quickly escape from enemies, but often a group of ants will start jumping all at once. It would be hard for their enemies to grab just one.
People have suspected the ants used their jaws to jump for over a century, but could only prove it with today's modern video equipment.
小題1:The fast speed of the trap­jaw ant's jaw lies in ________.
A.its light body
B.its springy system
C.its living environment
D.the length of its jaw
小題2:The passage uses “a bow and arrow” as an example to show ________.
A.how an arrow gets so much energy to fly
B.why the trap­jaw ants have springy system
C.why the trap­jaw ants jaws move so fast
D.how a bow and arrow works
小題3:Which of the following may amaze the scientists most?
A.How high the ants can leap by using their jaws.
B.How quickly the trap­jaw ants can move on the ground.
C.How wonderfully the springy system in the trap­jaw ants' jaws works.
D.How quickly the trap­jaw ants can grab food or enemies.
小題4:According to the passage, the trap­jaw ants' jaws keep them safe because ________.
A.they can catch their enemies easily with their jaws
B.their jaws make them difficult to recognize
C.their jaws help them find food easily
D.their jaws help them escape from their enemies

Psychologists(心理學(xué)家) have known that what's going on inside our head affects our senses. For example, poorer children think coins are larger than they are, and hungry people think pictures of food are brighter. Professor Remi Radel wanted to investigate(look into) how this happens -- whether it's right away, as the brain receives signals from the eyes, or a little later, as the brain's higher-level thinking processes get involved.
Radel chose 42 students and each student was told to arrive at the lab at noon after three or four hours of not eating on the day of the test. Then they were told there was a delay. Some were told to come back in 10 minutes; others were given an hour to get lunch. So half the students were hungry when they did the experiment and the other half had just eaten.
For the experiment, the participant looked at a computer screen. One by one, 80 words flashed on the screen. A quarter of the words were food-related. After each word, the person was asked how bright the word was and asked to choose which of two words they'd seen -- a food-related word like gateau (cake) or a neutral (中性的) word like bateau (boat).
Hungry people saw the food-related words as brighter and were better at identifying food-related words. Because the word appeared too quickly for them to be reliably seen, this means that the difference is in perception (直覺), Radel says—it's not because of some kind of processing happening in the brain after you've already figured out what you're looking at.
"This is something great to me, that humans can really realize what they need or what they hope for, to know that our brain can really arrange for our motives and needs," Radel says. "There is something inside us that selects information in the world to make life easier.”
小題1:The purpose of Radel's research is to let us know ____.
A.how our thinking has effect on our senses happens
B.what it is the good time for students to have lunch
C.whether poorer children think coins are larger than they are
D.whether hungry people think pictures of food are brighter
小題2:In the experiment 20 words that flashed on the screen had something to do with “____”.
A.boatB.food C.mind D.weather
小題3:Which of the following is true about the experiment?
A.The students should stare at the words in the book.
B.Each word appeared slowly in order that the participant could read it exactly.
C.After each word flashed on the screen, the person was asked to finish two tasks.
D.On the day of the test, all the students were very hungry because of the delay of their lunch.
小題4:What does the new study find?
A.Actually our brain can arrange for our motives and needs.
B.In the experiment the brain was totally controlled by the senses.
C.People who had just eaten saw all the words more clearly than hungry people.
D.The participants saw the words look different long after the brain dealt with the information.
