Dear Simon,
I'm writing this email in London. We a 1 here on Tuesday after staying in Paris for five days. London is one of the most interesting c 2 in Europe(欧洲), but unluckily, it's also one of the most expensive places to stay in. People in Paris are very humorous and often tell funny j 3 .But it was more d 4 to communicate(交流) with them because I didn't know their language.
Of course, I ate much delicious food here and learned a lot about the food culture of theUK. They have d 5 names for meals, including“breakfast”,“brunch”,“elevenses”,“lunch”,“tea” and“dinner”! What and when people eat can be very different. In some parts of the UK, people may eat their meals at different times. And in some parts of the UK,“dinner”means“lunch”, and“s 6 ” means“dinner”.

My aunt, who comes from England, says that B 7 food is better than French food, but she's wrong about that!
This evening, my aunt and uncle will take me to a musical(音乐剧) show c 8 ThePhantom of the Opera. They say it's one of the most wonderful shows in London. I think it would be more exciting to see a pop s 9 show, but that would be the worst thing in the world for my uncle and aunt.
We will fly to Sydney in five days. I am looking f 10 to seeing you!
Yours,
Daniel

五、跨学科阅读理解。
Scientists in Australia have found that bees seem to understand the idea of zero. This is surprising since bees have very small brains. Studies have shown that only humans and a few animals such as monkeys and some birds understand zero. And humans usually don't understand it until they' re around four years old. But bees are smarter than they look. Scientists already knew that bees could count up to four. They also knew that bees could“talk to” each other. By dancing in some ways, bees could tell other bees how far away the food was and in what direction.
Scientists at RMIT University in Australia came up with a smart way to test whether bees understood the concept(概念) of zero. They prepared some cards with different numbers of shapes on them. First, they had to train the bees by giving them sugar water to make them choose the cards with fewer shapes on them. They put something sour(酸的) under the cards with more shapes on them. Soon the bees knew there was sugar water under the cards with fewer shapes.
After about 40 tests, the bees learned to choose the cards with different numbers of shapes.Then came the interesting part. The scientists put a card with nothing on it. Even though they had never seen it, the trained bees chose the blank(空白的) card. This showed that they knew that zero or“none” meant less than“some”.
Bees' brains are about 86,000 times smaller than the brains of humans. How are they able to do so much with such a small brain? Scientists want to study more bees to find out more. Many are now trying to create machines that can“think” like bees. By learning how the bees’ brains work, they may be able to use some of those ideas to teach computers and robots some new tricks.
( )1. What can we learn from Paragraph 1?
A. Bees are smarter than monkeys. B. Most animals can count up to four.
C. Humans can understand zero since birth. D. Dancing is a form of bees' communication.
( )2. Why did the scientists use sugar water?
A. To train the bees to choose the cards with more shapes.
B. To check if bees could tell sweetness from sourness.
C. To test if bees understood the meaning of numbers.
D. To encourage the bees to choose the cards with fewer shapes.
( )3. The interesting result of the test was that .
A. the bees chose the blank card B. the bees landed on the sugar water
C. the bees flew towards the sour water D. the bees chose the cards with some shapes
( )4. The underlined word“tricks” in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to“ ”.
A. numbers B. skills C. ideas D. goals
( )5. Which is the best title for the passage?
A. Bees Are in Need of Protection. B. Bees Are Important to Humans.
C. Bees Know the Meaning of Zero. D. Bees Have Funny Social Activities.
