Here is an experiment to see how ants can organize some clever teamwork. 1. First, you need some ants. You may have to wait until summer to find them on the ground. 2.

What will happen if one ant finds food? A. The ant will eat all the food. B. The ant will watch other ants. C. The ant will lead others to the food. D. The ant will wait until others come. 23. What will the ants do if you move the fruit? A. They will go back to their home. B. They will still follow their old route. C. They will find a new way quickly. D. They will stop walking and stay there. 24. What is the purpose of this experiment? A. To find out what food ants like best. B. To count how many ants live together. C.

Many houses are destroyed and thousands of people die. To fight these fires, there are special heroes called smoke jumpers. Smoke jumpers are a special type of firefighter. Instead of driving fire trucks, they jump from planes. They land in faraway places that cars or people cannot reach easily, such as the middle of a mountain or a deep forest. When they arrive at the fire, their main goal is to stop the fire from spreading. They use basic tools to clear dry grass and wood. They also carry water, but only a little. Their job is to control the fire until more firefighters arrive. To be a smoke jumper, one must be strong and healthy. The most important thing is to have the right weight and height. In the United States, for example, smoke jumpers must weigh between 54 and 91 kilograms. This makes sure they don’t get hurt or carried away by the wind when they land. The job is dangerous and the working hours are long. However, smoke jumpers love their work. They enjoy the excitement of jumping from planes and living in nature. As the 28-year-old Russian smoke jumper Alexi Tishin says, “This is the best job for the strong and brave.” 31. ________ 32. ________ 33. ________ 34. ________ 35. ________ 四、语言运用(本大题分为 A、B两部分，共15分) A．短文填空(本题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) 请从方框内选择适当的词，并根据需要用其正确形式填空，使文章完整连贯。注意每空一词，每词仅用一次，有两词为多余选项。请将答案写在答题卡对应题目的答题位置上。 for difficult they quick different on job worker teach require special touch My grandpa had a very simple job when he was young.
