For many years, she was only interested in making money. Then one day she had a serious car accident which changed her life. “I had a terrible car accident. It took me 10 months to recover from the accident. During that time, I realized I wanted to find a more meaningful reason for being here on earth,” said Hill. As soon as Hill recovered, she travelled to California. One day she found a company wanted to cut down part of a forest. In the forest there were lots of redwood trees. One of the trees was more than 1, 000 years old. Hill learnt that a group was trying to save the redwood forest from the company. They decided to find someone to live in a redwood tree and hoped this would stop the company from cutting the trees down. Hill volunteered. Hill lived in the tree for over two years without ever going down. It was cold and wet in the redwood tree. There were even very serious winter storms while Hill was in the tree. Finally the company decided to protect the tree Hill lived in. They agreed never to cut down the big redwood tree or the trees around it. When Hill put her feet on the earth, she began to cry. But she continued to do other things to protect the environment. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 6. What does the underlined word “recover” in Paragraph 1 mean? A. get nervous B. get well C. get busy D. get tired 7. Hill travelled to California to ________. A. work in a restaurant B. continue her study C. do something meaningful D. encourage people to join the group 8. How long did Hill live in the redwood tree? A. For one year. B. For less than one year. C. For two years. D. For more than two years. 9. According to the passage, Hill’s life in the tree was ________. A. difficult B. comfortable C. hot D. boring 10. Which of the following is TRUE about Hill? A. She opened a hotel after she left school. B. At first, she didn’t want to help the group. C. She did lots of things to protect the environment. D. She went down from the tree she lived in every week. C 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! 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 11. How does the writer start the passage? A. By listing facts. B. By giving examples. C. By asking questions. D. By using pictures. 12. Which of the following cards should the second group of bees fly to? A. ①④ B. ②③ C. ①② D. ③④ 13. 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 instead of 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. 14. What can we learn from the last paragraph? A. Bees have a great ability to learn numbers. B. Bees like odd numbers more than even numbers. C. Scientists know how bees learn numbers. D. Scientists know why bees can tell different numbers. 15. In which section can we read this passage in the newspaper? A. Animal World. B. Sports Life. C. Festival Week. D. Beautiful Cities.
