Can you say the meaning of “Zero”? Can you do addition and subtraction (加减法)? Most people can. But do you know bees can do these things too? A study shows that bees have even greater math abilities. After some training, they can know the difference between even numbers (ending in 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8) and odd numbers (ending in 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9).
Some Australian scientists put up different cards with an odd or even number of triangles (三角形). They used the numbers 1 to 10. Then they trained the first group of bees to choose odd numbers and the second group to choose even numbers. If a bee flew to the right card, it would get sugar water. If it chose the wrong card, it got bitter (苦的) water.
In a short time, all the bees knew what odd numbers or even numbers were. They could fly to the right numbers 80% of the time. After that, the scientists added new cards with the numbers 11 and 12. The bees never saw the numbers in their training before, but they could choose rightly 70% of the time. Surprisingly, the bees even learned odd numbers more quickly than people.
How did the bees learn the numbers so fast? Scientists didn’t have a clear idea. But they believe if they find the answer, it will help them build better and faster computers. After all, a bee’s brain is about 86,000 times smaller than ours!
32. How does the passage start?
A. By listing facts. B. By giving examples. C. By asking questions. D. By using pictures.
33. Which of the following card should the second group of bees fly to?
A. ①④ B. ②③ C. ①② D. ③④
34. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Our brains are 8,600 times bigger than bees.
B. Bees like bitter water rather than sugar water.
C. After training, bees can learn even numbers more quickly than people.
D. After training, bees can know the difference between even numbers and odd numbers.
35. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. Bees have a great ability to learn numbers.
B. Bees like odd numbers better than even numbers.
C. Scientists know how bees learn numbers.
D Scientists know why bees can tell different numbers.
36. Where can we read this passage in the newspaper?
A. Animal World. B. Sports Life. C. Festival Week. D. Beautiful Cities.
D
The number of people living in the rainforest is rising, but the rainforest itself is becoming smaller!
During the 20th century, huge areas of rainforests were cut down. More and more people in Brazil and Indonesia moved into rainforest areas to find land for living. Local farmers cut down trees to grow crops (庄稼). Large companies have also moved into the rainforests to develop their factories.
The problem is that the area of the rainforest is becoming smaller and smaller. Scientists say that destroying (破坏) the rainforest is ▲ the earth and should be stopped. But why? Rainforest plants help to clean the air. What’s more, different parts of rainforest plants can be used to produce useful medicines and may be the key to solving serious health problems.
So how can we solve the problem? Governments can make some rules to protect their forests. Companies can create jobs elsewhere, so that fewer people have to live and work in the rainforests. Farmers are encouraged to plant crops in certain areas, and this helps to stop the soil from being washed away and produces better crops.
More than half of the plants and animals that live in the rainforest can’t be found anywhere else in the world. It is important to make sure that these forests are used well and protected by people.
37. Which of the following can describe the number of people living in the rainforest? ________
A. B. C. D.
38. Why did some people in Brazil and Indonesia move into the rainforest areas? ________
A. To live a quiet life.
B To enjoy the fresh air.
C. To protect the rainforests.
D. To search for land.
39. Which of the following can be best put in ____▲____?
A. saving B. describing C. harming D. finding
40. How can farmers protect the rainforest? ________
A. By making some rules for forests.
B. By creating jobs elsewhere.
C. By planting crops in certain areas.
D. By producing better crops.
41. What’s the purpose of the passage? ________
A To ask more people to protect the rainforest.
B. To call on people to plant trees in the rainforest.
C. To ask people to learn more about the rainforest.
D. To tell funny facts about the rainforest to people.

Can you say the meaning of “Zero”? Can you do addition and subtraction (加减法)? Most people can. But do you know bees can do these things too? A study shows that bees have even greater math abilities. After some training, they can know the difference between even numbers (ending in 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8) and odd numbers (ending in 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9).
Some Australian scientists put up different cards with an odd or even number of triangles (三角形). They used the numbers 1 to 10. Then they trained the first group of bees to choose odd numbers and the second group to choose even numbers. If a bee flew to the right card, it would get sugar water. If it chose the wrong card, it got bitter (苦的) water.
In a short time, all the bees knew what odd numbers or even numbers were. They could fly to the right numbers 80% of the time. After that, the scientists added new cards with the numbers 11 and 12. The bees never saw the numbers in their training before, but they could choose rightly 70% of the time. Surprisingly, the bees even learned odd numbers more quickly than people.
How did the bees learn the numbers so fast? Scientists didn’t have a clear idea. But they believe if they find the answer, it will help them build better and faster computers. After all, a bee’s brain is about 86,000 times smaller than ours!

The number of people living in the rainforest is rising, but the rainforest itself is becoming smaller!
During the 20th century, huge areas of rainforests were cut down. More and more people in Brazil and Indonesia moved into rainforest areas to find land for living. Local farmers cut down trees to grow crops (庄稼). Large companies have also moved into the rainforests to develop their factories.
The problem is that the area of the rainforest is becoming smaller and smaller. Scientists say that destroying (破坏) the rainforest is ▲ the earth and should be stopped. But why? Rainforest plants help to clean the air. What’s more, different parts of rainforest plants can be used to produce useful medicines and may be the key to solving serious health problems.
So how can we solve the problem? Governments can make some rules to protect their forests. Companies can create jobs elsewhere, so that fewer people have to live and work in the rainforests. Farmers are encouraged to plant crops in certain areas, and this helps to stop the soil from being washed away and produces better crops.
More than half of the plants and animals that live in the rainforest can’t be found anywhere else in the world. It is important to make sure that these forests are used well and protected by people.

【答案】 Some Advice for Foreign Guests
Welcome to China.When visiting a Chinese family, foreign guests should keep a few things in mind.
Firstly, dressing appropriately is essential. While casual attire is generally acceptable, it’s best to avoid overly revealing or inappropriate clothing, as this might cause discomfort to your hosts. Secondly, be mindful of conversation topics. Avoid sensitive or controversial subjects like politics, religion, and personal finances. Stick to lighter, more neutral topics like culture, food, or travel experiences. Thirdly, respect the privacy and space of your hosts. Don’t wander around the house uninvited or open closed doors. Also, remember to remove your shoes when entering the house, as it’s customary in many Chinese households. As for gifts, bringing something small and thoughtful is always appreciated. Consider items like chocolates, wine, or a small souvenir from your country. These gifts show your appreciation and respect for your hosts. Lastly, punctuality is highly valued in Chinese culture. Arrive on time or a little early to show your respect. Being late might give the impression of disrespect or carelessness.
By following these simple guidelines, foreign guests can ensure a pleasant and respectful visit to a Chinese family.
