If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they will become weak, and when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way.
When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.
If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents may be blamed, and few of us know that it is just his own fault (過(guò)錯(cuò)). Have you ever found that some people can't read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write and when they have to remember things, they cannot write them down in a small notebook. As a result, they have to remember days, names, songs and stories, so their memory is being exercised the whole time.
So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: practice remembering things in a way as other people do.
小題1:Someone can't have a good memory if ________.
A.he can't read or write
B.his parents haven't a good memory

A.Your memory needs chance for practice.
B.A good memory is inherited(遺傳) from parents.
C.Your memory works in the different ways as your arms or legs.
D.Don't learn to read and write if you want to have a good memory.
小題4: Few people know that if someone has a poor memory it is ________.
A.his own faultB.his parents' fault
C.his teachers' faultD.his friends' fault
小題5: The writer wants to tell us ________.
A.how to read and write well

Can plants eat people? Probably not, but there are many plants that eat meat. Some of them are big. And they can eat small animals. One famous meat-eating plant is the Venus flytrap(捕蠅草).
The Venus flytrap is a very strange plant. It grows in dry parts of the United States. Its leaves are like the pages of a book. They can open and close very quickly. Inside the leaves, there are three small hairs. If a fly touches one of the hairs, the leaf closes quickly. The fly cannot get out. In about half an hour, the leaf presses the fly until it is dead. Then, the plant covers the fly. Slowly, the plant eats the fly.
Why do plants do it? Most plants get what they need from the sun, the air, and the ground. In some places, the ground is very poor. It doesn't have all these important things, especially nitrogen(氮). Animal meat has a lot of nitrogen, so some plants eat meat to get what they need. Let's hope that some of the bigger plants don't get the same idea!
小題1:The Venus flytrap is a kind of _________.   
A.plantB.a(chǎn)nimalC.foodD.meat
小題2:The underlined word "presses" probably means _________ in Chinese.
A.?dāng)D壓B.關(guān)上C.打開(kāi)D.松開(kāi)
小題3:Why do some plants eat animal meat?
A.Because plants are dangerous to animals.
B.Because animals are dangerous to plants.
C.Because plants want to get what they need from animal meat.
D.Because plants want to protect themselves against animals.

A big, mighty(高大的) tree stood in a forest. Its branches(樹(shù)枝) spread out and its roots (根) went deep in the earth. A lot of people came here to have a rest under it. And a lot of birds stood on its branches to sing and dance. The big tree was very proud all the time.
At the foot of the tree, there was a little plant. The plant was thin, and seemed to be blown down by any of a little wind.
One day, the two neighbors were having a little chat.
“Well, little one,” said the tree to the plant, “why not put your feet deeply in the earth, and raise your head high in the air as I do?”
“I see there is no need to do so,” said the plant with a smile. “In fact, I think I may be safer in this way.”
“Safer?” said the tree. “Are you safer than I am? Do you know how deep my roots are in the earth and how strong my branches are? Who can possibly pull me out by the roots or bow my head to the ground?” And the tree didn’t want to say anything to the weak plant.
But the tree was to regret its words very soon. One evening, a great hurricane(颶風(fēng)) came. It blew the trees off their roots and almost destroyed the forest completely. It uprooted(將……連根拔起)the mighty tree and blew it away with great force.

C.Because a lot of birds stood on its branches to sing and dance.
D.All of the above.
小題3:Why didn’t the big tree want to say anything to the little plant?
A.Because the big tree was tired.
B.Because the little plant knew less than the big tree.

More and more people around the world are joining in dangerous sports. Some people climbed the highest mountains; some traveled into unknown parts of the world; some sailed small boats across the largest sea. Now some people begin to look for new excitement.
Bungee jumping (蹦極) and motorcycle racing (摩托車賽) are quite dangerous sports. Bungee jumping only lasts a few minutes or even seconds. You jump from a high place, 200 meters above the ground, and there is a rubber band (橡膠帶子) tied to your legs. When you jump down, the rubber band pulls you up. About 2,000,000 people around the world have tried bungee jumping.
Why do people join in these dangerous sports? Some scientists say that it is because modern life has become safe and it is not interesting. In the past, people lived in danger. They had to go out and look for food, and life was like a fight but was interesting.
Many people think that there is little excitement in life. They live and work in safe places, buy food in shops, and there are doctors and hospitals to look after them if they become ill.

The rockets take astronauts and man-made satellites into space. The satellites are used for communication, weather monitoring and research. But how do satellites stay up without falling down?
There are two opposite forces (力量) acting on the satellite. One of them is the force of gravitation (地心引力), which tries to pull the satellite towards the earth. The other force is created by the rotation (旋轉(zhuǎn)) of the satellite around the earth. This force tries to take the satellite away from the earth. With these two forces, the satellite goes round and round. The gravitational pull of the earth (the force which pulls everything towards the ground) is like a rope which keeps the satellite from flying away.
Everything that goes up has to come down. It is only a matter of time before a satellite comes back to the earth. As time goes by, the satellite loses its speed, which makes the gravitational pull stronger than the force pulling it away. This makes the satellite crash (墜落) down to the earth.
小題1:Which of the following uses of satellites is NOT mentioned?
A.communication
B.monitoring the weather condition
C.doing some research
D.taking pictures
小題2:The force that pulls the satellite towards the earth is created by ________.
A.the earth
B.the satellite itself
C.the rotation of the satellite
D.the rope
小題3:Why can’t the satellites fly away?
A.Because of the force from the earth.
B.Because the satellite is too big.
C.Because of the force created by the rotation of the satellite around the earth.
D.Because people on earth have made ropes to tie the satellites tightly.
小題4:The satellite will finally crashes down to the earth ________.
A.when it flies faster
B.when its speed slows down
C.when people cut the rope
D.when there is no electricity in it
小題5:Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.There are four forces acting on the satellite.
B.The force of gravitation makes the satellite go round and round.
C.As time goes by, the satellite will finally fall down.
D.The satellite will stay in space forever.
