A 90-year-old tortoise (烏龜) is going twice its usual speed after being equipped (裝備) with a set of wheels. The animal, called Mrs T, was facing a terrible future after losing her two front legs in a mouse attack while she was sleeping in winter, but her owners glued the wheels onto her shell (外殼).

“She’s going double the speed she used to,” said the owner Jude Ryder, “She uses her back legs to push herself along and seems quite happy.”

The 58-year-old owner was surprised when she went to check on her loved pet last month and found her front legs had been eaten in the mouse attack. The local animal doctor tried his best to save Mrs T. But he was afraid that the tortoise would not survive without being mobile. After paying £1,000 for the treatment, Mrs Ryder turned to her son Dale for help. Dale designed the front wheels and used resin (樹脂) to add them to the front of the shell. Mrs Ryder said: “She liked them immediately, but she must learn how to turn and stop. She can get a good speed up, much faster than before. Mrs T is still quite young for a tortoise. She could go on for another 50 years. All she needs is a new set of tyres (輪胎) sometimes.”

When Mrs T was sixty years old, she was bought as a pet for Dale, an 8-year-old boy. It liked running happily in Mrs Ryder’s garden in spring and summer. When winter came, Mrs T slept in the garden shelter. A mouse got in last month and chewed (咬) off both her front legs. Mrs Ryder said: “We were afraid she would be sure to die, but her new set of wheels have saved her life. She can run in the garden again and we can always find her because she leaves very strange footprints behind wherever she goes.”

Mice attacking tortoises is not uncommon around us—in 2013 Britain’s oldest tortoise died after a mouse attack. The tortoise called Thomas was 130 when he was bitten at his home in Guernsey. He spent five days on strong antibiotics (抗生素), but the wound became so infected (被感染的) that his owner had no choice but to have him put to sleep.

1. After being equipped with a set of wheels, Mrs T can move by using .

A. her back legs to push herself

B. her front legs to pull herself

C. her back wheels to pull herself

D. her front wheels to push herself

2.According to the passage, Mrs Ryder’s son is about .

A. 8 years old B. 28 years old

C. 38 years old D. 58 years old

3.Which of the following shows the right order of the story?

a. A mouse chewed off Mrs T’s two front legs.

b. Mrs T’s owners glued the wheels onto her shell.

c. Mrs T learned how to turn and stop with equipped wheels.

d. The local animal doctor tried his best to treat Mrs T.

e. Mrs T was bought as a pet for Dale when she was sixty.

A. e-a-b-c-d B. a-b-c-d-e

C. a-e-b-c-d D. e-a-d-b-c

4.What can we learn from the passage?

A. Mrs Ryder is able to move much faster than before.

B. Tortoises attacking mice is not uncommon around us.

C. The animal doctor added the front wheels to the shell.

D. Mrs T can go faster after being equipped with wheels.

In classes, your teachers will talk about topics that you are studying. The information they provide will be important for you to know when you take tests. So you must be able to take good written notes from what your teachers say.

Here are the three stages(階段) of taking notes and what you should do during each stage.

1.Before Class

Review your notes you have taken before you come to class. This will be good for remembering what was covered. Get you ready to understand new information your teacher will provide.

2.During Class

Keep your attention on what your teacher is saying and “the signal words” that tell you what your teacher is going to say and it is important to write in your notes. Examples of signal words are “The most important point…” and “Remember that…”. Be sure to include the information that your teacher repeats or writes on the blackboard. Write quickly to include all the important information in your notes. Do this by writing abbreviations such as med for medicine, using symbols such as % for percent, and writing short sentences.

3.After Class

Rewrite your notes to make them more complete and accurate(準(zhǔn)確的) by changing abbreviations into whole words, symbols into words, and shortened sentences into longer sentences. Use them to answer your questions. If necessary, ask your teacher for help.

根據(jù)短文信息,寫出表格空缺處所填單詞的正確形式,每空一詞。
