Not just wolves and dogs, but also sheep, bears and even monkeys are able to look after human children, Daily Mail reported. There is the case of Ivan Mishukov, a 6-year-old boy from Moscow. Police found him living with dogs in the city's streets in 1998. There, he had been begging for two years. Ivan found food to feed the dogs. And in return, the dogs kept him warm and protected him while he slept. When he was saved, he could hardly speak. Luckily, he later joined the army and lived like a normal adult. But not all children who are raised by animals can adapt to human society. In 1848, British soldier Colonel William Sleeman found a little boy living with many wolves in India. He took him to a village, taking care of him and trying to teach him to speak. But nothing worked. The boy still behaved like a wolf, eating raw (生的) meat and refusing to wear clothes, no matter how cold the weather was. About two years later, he got very sick and passed away. Some animals are believed to have strong maternal instincts (母性本能), which guide them to care for young animals, even those of other species (物种). However, people need to know that children raised by animals may experience long-term negative effects when they enter human society, according to Daily Mail. 1. Ivan Mishukov was raised by ____ . A. wolves B. monkeys C. dogs D. bears 2. What could the dogs do for Ivan? A. They begged food for him. B. They warmed him. C. They talked with him. D. They took him to join the army. 3. The case of the boy raised by wolves shows us that children raised by animals ____ . A. can learn from animals B. can live longer C. can speak animal language D. may harm human beings 4. What did the Daily Mail say? A. Animals can take good care of human babies. B. Some animals have strong maternal instincts. C. Some animals can’t tell themselves apart from other species. D. Children raised by animals are stronger than other people. 5. Where might you find this passage? A. A fashion magazine. B. A science-fiction novel. C. A sports article. D. A science magazine. 【答案】CBABD C From different TV dramas or books, we can often hear titles like quanzi, taoli and kaimo. In fact, they are part of Chinese history and culture. In China, it’s a modest (谦虚的) way for Chinese parents to introduce their sons by calling quanzi while they use linglang to show respect for others’. Although their children are successful, they don’t usually talk about this in public. Instead, they try to play it down. This is similar to hanshe that Chinese people may call their big houses. There is another Chinese expression taoli mantianxia, which means a teacher has lots of students across the country, like trees full of peaches and plums (李). It comes from a story about Zizhi. As a teacher, Zizhi was kind and strict. He often pointed at the peach or plum trees in his yard to ask his students to work hard. “You should try to be a successful person in your fields, just as the peach and plum trees,” he said. Keeping these words in minds, many of his students did as he said and made it. In Chinese, kaimo means “role model”. Both words have a “木” on their left side. People believe that kai and mo might be two kinds of trees in ancient China. It was said that there were many kai trees growing near Confucius’ tomb (孔子墓). These trees were so straight that they made people think of Confucius’quality — straight and honest. The mo trees were said to grow near the tomb of the Duke of Zhou. The straightness and the leaves’ pure color of trees were like his wonderful quality. Since kai and mo trees grew near the tombs of two great people, kaimo was then used to stand for role models. 1. According to paragraph 2, Chinese play it down by ____ . A. inviting friends to visit their hanshe B. calling others’ sons linglang C. wanting their children to be successful D. calling their own sons quanzi 2. Taoli is used to refer to ____ from paragraph 3. A. peach and plum trees B. hard-working teachers C. flowers and fruit of trees D. successful students in their fields 3. What do kai and mo trees have in common (共同点) from the last paragraph? A. They are both straight. B. They have pure leaves. C. They are planted in the same place. D. Their names both have a “木” on the right side. 4. What’s the main idea of the passage? A. It tells us how to be a good teacher like Zizhi. B. It shows us different ways Chinese people respect others. C. It introduces some Chinese words about history and culture. D. It explains why Chinese people like to plant trees near tombs. 5. Which is the right structure of this passage? A. ①②/③④ B. ①/②③④ C. ①②③/④ D. ①/②③/④ 【答案】DDACB D Writing In the Dark Paul Korchagin sat by the window, though he could see nothing but darkness. After losing his eyesight in the war, his hands became his eyes. “I will write a book,” he told his wife Dasha. “Words will be my weapon to keep fighting.” 　　He began working on The Birth of the Storm, a novel about young revolutionaries (革命分子). Writing but unable to see was painful: his pencil slipped (滑落，脱落), words were tangled (缠结) up. Dasha begged to help, but Pavel refused. “If I surrender to this darkness, I lose everything,” he said. He used a wooden board with grooves (凹槽), threading strings (线，弦) across it to guide his pencil. Day after day, he ran paper under the strings, tracing words along the grooves. When the first six chapters were destroyed in a post office fire. Pavel calmly resharpened his pencil. “Then I’ll rewrite them,” he said. “Steel only grows stronger in fire.” After five months, he gave the full manuscript to Dasha’s hands.

The distance (距离) between the crest and the trough is the wave __▲__ . The distance between one crest and the next is the wave length. How far waves go Waves stop when the wind stops giving them energy. If the wind continues giving them energy, they can travel to the other side of the world. On rocks, waves break, and make a lot of water. On a beach, the sand or stones slow the bottom part of the wave. The crest rises to the highest point then moves over the top.
