Last week,Chicago became the first city in the US to join the “Lights Out Plan”.People turned off the lights in the city’s tallest buildings,so that thousands of birds could get to their winter homes.Every year in autumn,some birds fly over Chicago on their way to the south,and come back the next spring.
Lights mean danger to birds.Birds find their way by looking at the stars in the sky.Lights in tall buildings are so bright that birds may mistake them as stars.This means they can not find the right way to go home.
This month,about 300 types of birds are flying over Chicago to go back to the south to live through the cold winter.Birds fly to warmer places for a few reasons.Many birds cannot live in the cold,so they fly to warmer places.But there are other reasons,too.Birds need to look for food in the south.Another reason is that they want to have baby birds.Many birds like to have their baby birds in the same “house” they lived in last year,so they fly back there.
There are about 9,000 kinds of birds in the world,and about 600 kinds of birds migrate.Some birds can fly a very long way.Sometimes they fly to other countries.We have fewer birds today because there are fewer places for birds.

The National Football League (NFL) is a professional American football league with 32 teams in. How does one choose which team to support? Some people choose the team of their hometown, or where they now live, or the team that their parents or their friends follow.
A boy student from Oklahoma wrote a letter to each of the owners or presidents of the 32 NFL teams. He would see what answers he got, and then choose his team.
Bill was home from school sick. It was the week before Christmas. He was “kind of bored” and needed something to do. So he asked his parents if he could write to every professional football team. Bill wrote the 32 letters by hand.
“We weren’t quite sure what we could get back. He didn’t really have one team that he wanted to hear from,” his mother said: “He just wanted to see what kind of reply he’ d get.”
A letter to the Carolina Panthers’ owner Jerry Richardson was one of those posted. Bill wrote in his letter, “My family and I love football. They are fans of different teams.But I don’t have a team to cheer for yet. I am ready to pick an NFL team to cheer on for lifetime!”
A few weeks later, Bill’s mother was pulling into her driveway when a delivery man arrived with a box from the Panthers. When Bill came home, he excitedly opened the box. Inside he found a signed Carolina Panthers helmet(頭盔)as well as a handwritten note from Jerry.
The team owner had written to Bill, “We should be honored(光榮的)if our Carolina Panthers became your team. We would make you proud of your joining us.”
Bill was overjoyed with what he got. He decided that from then on he would support the Panthers. He keeps the letter from Jerry in his bedroom. His mother says, “It’s not the helmet they sent us. It’s what they told us.” That is what mattered to Bill and why he chose to become a Panthers’ fan.

This year the US will honour(紀念) one of the country’s most famous writers—Mark Twain (1835-1910). Most readers know that his real name was Samuel Longhome Clemens, but how many know where the pen name “Mark Twain” came from?
The answer shows Clemens’ colorful early life before he became a writer. “Mark Twain” was the cry shouted on a ship when the ship entered a part of a river that was two fathoms (6 feet) deep. “Twain” is an old-fashioned way of saying “two”. Twain trained as a ship pilot on the Mississippi river for two years, a time that he wrote about in the humourousLife on the Mississippi (1883).
The famous river would become an important theme in many of his works—who could forget the journey of the Huck and Jim along it in his most famous book. The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1884)?
With little education, he had to teach himself how to write stories. Whenever possible, he would go to public libraries. There he spent much time reading and thinking, which greatly helped him with his writing.
On the other hand, his life experiences gave him wonderful material to write about and attract readers. Twain wrote in a style that has been called “l(fā)ocal colour” because it shows great knowledge of local people and their customs.
This gift is very clear in the two books for which Twain is still celebrated today. The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (1876) and its follow-up The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, which many people call “The Great American Novel”.
The most amazing invention in the book is the voice of Huck himself. Huck did not enjoy schooling. It shows in the way he uses language, in a spoken style. Only a master like Twain could copy the way a young southern boy talked so well.
1. What does the underlined word “gift” mean in the passage?
A. Twain’s talent for self-teaching.
B. Twain’s “l(fā)ocal colour” writing style.
C. Twain’s good sense of humour.
D. Twain’s experiences as a ship pilot
2.According to the passage, what is the best part of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn?
A. The deep social meaning.
B. The exciting life experiences.
C. The special way that Huck talks.
D. The nice view of the Mississippi.
3. Which is the most suitable place in the passage for the sentence. “Twain did not come from the writer’s background you might expect”?
A. At the beginning of Paragraph 2.
B. At the beginning of Paragraph 3.
C. At the beginning of Paragraph 4.
D. At the beginning of Paragraph 5.
4. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Mark Twain’s career as a great writer.
B. Mark Twain’s interest in describing local life.
C. Mark Twain’s achievements in American literature field.
D. Mark Twain’s life experiences which influenced his writing.
