More than 50,000,000 people live in the rainforests of the world and most of them do not hurt the forest they live in. They eat the fruits that grow on the forest trees, but they do not cut them down. They kill some animals to eat, but they do not destroy them.
When we cut down the rainforests, we destroy these forest people, too. In 1900, there were 1,000,000 forest people in the Amazon forest. In 1980, there were only 200,000.
The Yanomami live along the rivers of the rainforest in the north of Brazil. They have lived in the rainforest for about 10,000 years and they use more than 2,000 different plants for food and for medicine. But in 1988, someone found gold in their forest, and suddenly 45,000 people came to the forest and began looking for gold. They cut down the forest to make roads. They made more than a hundred airports. The Yanomami people lost land and food. Many died because new diseases came to the forest with the strangers.
The Yanomami people tried to save their forest, because it was their home. But the people who wanted gold were stronger.
Many forest people try to save their forests. Chico Mendes was famous in Brazil because he wanted to keep the forest for his people. “I want the Amazon forest to help all of us-forest people Brazil, and all the Earth,” he said. A few months later, in December 1988, people who wanted to cut down the forest killed Chico Mendes.
In Borneo, people were cutting down the forest of the Penan people to sell the wood. The Penan people tried to save their rainforest. They made blockades across the roads into the forest. In 1987, they closed fifteen roads for eight months. No one cut down any trees during that time.
In Panama, the Kuna people saved their forest. They made a forest park which tourists pay to visit.
The Gavioes people of Brazil use the forest, but they protect it as well. They find and sell the Brazil nuts(堅(jiān)果) which grow on the forest trees.
【小題1】The number of the people living in the Amazon forest in 1980 was _______ of that in1900.

A.halfB.one-thirdC.two-fifthsD.one-fifth
【小題2】The people who _______ have destroyed the rainforest of the Yanomami.
A.pick fruits and kill animals to eat
B.use plants for food and medicine
C.have lived there for about ten thousand years
D.made the roads and the airports
【小題3】Those people built roads and airports in order to ________.
A.carry away the gold conveniently
B.make people there live a better life
C.stop spreading the new diseases
D.develop the tourism(旅游業(yè)) there
【小題4】We can infer the underlined word blockades probably means:
A.包圍B.障礙C.街區(qū)D.通道
【小題5】 From the passage, we learn that _________.
A.we need wood to build houses, so we have to cut down trees
B.the rainforest people have done something to protect their home
C.to humans, gold is more important than trees
D.we mustn’t cut down any trees or kill any animals

After spending years searching for a planet with life, scientists may have found one. In September 2010, a team of US scientists discovered an Earth-sized planet called Gliese 581g. It has a surface temperature neither too hot nor too cold for liquid(液態(tài))water. Scientists think there is a chance that the planet could have life.
The planet Gliese 581g goes around a star called Gliese 581, which is about 20 light-years from Earth. That is about 194 trillion(萬億)kilometres -500 million times farther away from us than the moon.
A spacecraft traveling at a one-tenth of the speed of light would reach Gliese 581g within about 220 years. A human can’t live that long, but robotic explorers could make the job easier. However, our fastest spacecraft don’t come anywhere near that one-tenth light-speed mark.
At present, scientists don’t know what the surface might be like on Gliese 581g. What they know is that the planet is at the sight distance from its star to have liquid water. It’s also at the right distance to have an atmosphere that could protect the water if it is on the surface.
Although spacecraft won’t be getting there anytime soon, one way to look for life on Gliese 581g is to turn our radio telescopes(望遠(yuǎn)鏡)towards the planet and search for radiation(放射). By studying the radiation, scientists would find out about the chemicals(化學(xué)物質(zhì))around the planet and discover it Gliese 581g has an atmosphere. If it has one, studying the atmosphere would give us a good idea if the planet has life or not. But it’ll probably be many years before we can do this properly.
People have been arguing about whether there is alien life on Gliese 581g. Any discussion about alien life is just guessing at this point, according to its discoverers.
【小題1】 What did scientists find in September 2010?

A.A planet with water. B.A planet similar to the earth.
C.A planet without life.D.A planet near the earth.
【小題2】According to the article, Gliese 581g ________.
A.is at the right distance from its starB.moves around the earth
C.is as far away from us as the moonD.can be reached in about 220 years
【小題3】 Paragraph 5 is mainly about ______.
A.the possibility of living on Gliese 581g
B.the kinds of chemicals around Gliese 581g
C.the way of looking for life on Gliese 581g
D.the aim of studying the radiation on Gliese 581g
【小題4】Which of the following is the best title for the passage above?
A.Gliese 581g, a Likely Living PlanetB.Gliese 581, a Likely Living Planet
C.Gliese 581g and Its StarD.Gliese 581g and Radiation

In Chicago, a computerized system has been developed that controls(管理)traffic on the city’s 235 miles of seven expressways. Now one—a controller—can follow the movement of Chicago’s traffic by looking at a set of lights. The system uses electric sensors(感應(yīng)器) that are built into each expressway, every half a mile. Several times a second, the computer receives information from each sensor and translates it into green, yellow or red lights on a map in the control room. A green light means traffic is moving forty-five miles an hour, yellow means thirty to forty-five miles an hour, and red means heavy traffic—cars standing still or moving less than thirty miles an hour.
“See that red light near Austin Avenue?”the controller asked a visitor.“That’s a repair truck fixing the road, and the traffic has to go around it.”At the Roosevelt Road entrance to the expressway, the light kept changing from green to red and back to green again.“A lot of trucks get on the expressway there,”the controller explained.“They can’t speed up as fast as cars.”The sensors show immediately where an accident or a stopped car is blocking the traffic, and a truck is sent by radio to clear the road. The system has lowered the number of accidents by 18 percent. There are now 1.4 deaths on Chicago’s expressway for each one hundred million miles traveled, while in other parts of the county there are 2.6.
Traffic experts say that the Chicago system is the “coming thing”.Systems like Chicago’s are already in use on some expressways in Los Angeles and Houston.“Chicago has taken the lead,”said New York City’s traffic director and he added,“Chicago’s a good example.”

Look closely at your hands. Are they clean? It doesn't matter how many times you wash your hands, tiny microbes (微生物) still stay on them. But don't worry. Most microbes don't harm you.
Now scientists say the microbes on our hands could be used in a surprising way; fighting crime, According to a recent survey microbes as well as fingerprints(指紋) could be used to indentify the criminal.
Everyone has his own set of microbes on the hands. That is to say, if you and your best friend were able to see and compare all the microbes on your hands, your hands probably would look different. Some microbes only show up on your hands while others live only on your friend's hands.
When you work on a computer you leave the microbes from your hands on the keyboard. The scientists can easily tell the owner of the keyboard by looking at the microbes on it. Even if you don't leave your fingerprints behind, your microbes may give you away.
Noah Fierer, a scientist, says. "You can only clean a fingerprint, but you can't sterilize (使無菌) a surface just by wiping(擦) it off," He says that scientists have a lot more work to do before the microbe is used as a useful tool.
【小題1】According to the passage,_______ could be used to identify the criminal.

A.fingerprints B.scientists' hands
C.microbes D.fingerprints and microbes on people's hands
【小題2】Paragraph 3 tells us that________.
A.our hands look similar B.the microbes will make the keyboard dirty.
C.we should compare hands oftenD.we have our own sets of microbes.
【小題3】When you work on computer, the microbes________.
A.just stay on our handsB.a(chǎn)lso stay on the keyboard

A.fingerprints are no longer useful in fighting crime
B.microbes can be found on everyone's hands.
C.unlike microbe fingerprints can be cleaned if people wipe them
D.the microbe is used as a useful tool

Sitting on exercise balls brings more than a smile to students and teachers.
Some fourth-graders at Conrad Weiser West Elementary School in Womelsdorf love their new chairs-—probably because they're not really chairs at all.
The kids are sitting on the air-filled balls. But different from those just for exercise, these have small legs that keep them from rolling. Sitting on a chair all day in school can make anyone want to move around. So, more and more teachers are letting students have a ball. By using exercise balls instead of common chairs, teachers find students' posture(姿勢(shì)) and attention improved.
Dotti Pownall, a fifth-grader teacher in West Virginia, has been using balls as chairs since December 2008. "The students love them." she says. Pownall took a survey of her students. She found that 80 percent, thought sitting on the balls helped them concentrate(專注) better:
"Besides, they’re fun,b" says Pownall.
According to WittFitt,b a company that has sold balls to more than 200 schools, they can improve kids' posture and classroom behavior.
Exercise ball chairs are getting popular in classrooms, from preschool to college. Some adults (成人) even use them at work.
Lisa Witt felt so strongly about the use of balls as chairs that she started WittFitt. She said the company not only encourages the use of balls but also educates teachers and students on how to use them. "We sell balls in 24 states in America, three provinces in Canada and Japan." says Witt.
【小題1】Sitting on exercise balls can______.

A.improve students' attentionB.make students smarter
C.keep students moving around D.help students become fit
【小題2】According to the passage, the company WittFitt______.
A.began to produce balls in 2008 B.sells balls in 24 countries
C.was set up by Lisa WittD.is famous around the world
【小題3】It can be seen from the passage that ______.
A.exercise balls have no legsB.Pownall works as a teacher
C.students hate exercise balls D.exercise balls are filled with sand
【小題4】The passage mainly tells us about______.
A.the shape of exercise balls B.the use of exercise balls

In many high schools,there are strict rules about using mobile phones. If your phone rings in class,for example,the teacher will be very angry.
Every mobile phone has a ringtone (鈴聲). It tells you that someone is calling you. Now,there is a ringtone called “mosquitotone (蚊子鈴聲)”. Using it,students can receive calls and text messages (短信) in class but the teacher will not realize what is happening. How?
Mosquitotone has a special sound. Only children and teenagers can hear it. As we get older,we are unable to hear some sounds with high frequencies (頻率). As a result,a child or teenager can hear the mosquitotone ringtone, but its_inaudible_to someone 20 or older.
But sometimes,people over 20 can hear the ringtone. One British student’s phone uses mosquitotone. In class,the student’s phone rang. The 32­year­old teacher looked at the student and became unhappy. “I heard that. You know the rule:no mobile phone in class.”
Not all the students are interested in mosquitotone. Jerry Jones,a high school student of 17,says,“Using mosquitotone too often is bad for our hearing. I may use it for pleasure,but not in class. It’s unfair to the teachers!”
What do parents think of mosquitotone?“I think it is perfect for places like movie theaters,” says Connie Neeson,44.“Think about it. Yon’re watching a film and someone’s mobile phone rings. Mosquitotone is good because many people don’t hear it. However,it also has a bad influence on their study if students use it in class.”
【小題1】Mosquitotone works because ________.

A.it is very loudB.it has no sound
C.it has a beautiful soundD.it uses high frequencies
【小題2】The under lined part “its_inaudible_to” means “________”.
A.it can’t be seen byB.it can’t be heard by
C.it isn’t popular withD.it isn’t healthy for
【小題3】The 32­year­old teacher felt unhappy because the student ________.
A.was late for classB.didn’t do his homework
C.couldn’t answer her questionD.was using a mobile phone in class
【小題4】Connie Neeson thinks that mosquitotone ________.
A.has no bad influenceB.is unfair to the teachers

A fish that lives in America can live out. of water for months at a time, similar to how animals got used to land millions of years ago, a new study shows.
The Mangrove Rivulus, a kind of little fish, lives in small pools of water. When their living place dries up, they live. on the land, said Scott Taylor, a researcher in Florida.                        
The fish can grow as large as three inches. They group together and breathe air through their skin before they can find water again.
The new scientific discovery came during a trip.
"We were travelling for fun. and one day I kicked over a log (圓木) and the fish came out," Taylor told reporters by telephone. He said he would make his study on the fish known to the public in an American magazine early next year.
In lab tests, Taylor said he found the fish can live up to 66 days out of water without eating.
Some other fish can live out of water for a short period of time. The walking catfish found in Southeast Asia can stay on land for hours at a time, while lungfish(肺魚) found in Australia, Africa and South America can live out of water, but only in a not active(活波的)way. But no other known fish can be out of water as long as the Mangrove Rivulus and keep active, according to Patricia Wright, a biologist at a Canadian University.
More studies of the fish may tell how animals changed over time.
"These animals live in conditions similar to those millions of years ago, when animals began to move from water onto land," Wright said.
【小題1】The Mangrove Rivulus is a type of fish that_________.

A.lives on land in Africa
B.can stay alive for months out of water
C.prefers living in dry places
D.is the longest living fish on earth
【小題2】Who will write a report on Mangrove Rivulus?
A, Scott Taylor.                     B. Some reporters.
C. Patricia Wright.                   D. Scientists from Europe.
【小題3】According to the passage, lungfish can___________.
A.breathe through its skinB.be found in Asia
C.keep alive out of waterD.keep alive and walk on land
【小題4】Which one of the sentences below is not true?
A.The Mangrove Rivulus fish can live out of water as long as other animals if it has something to eat.
B.Millions of years ago, animals began to live onto land from water.
C.Lungfish found in Australia, Africa and South America can live out of water in a not active way.
D.The walking catfish found in Southeast Asia can stay on land for hours at a time.
【小題5】What can we say about the discovery of Mangrove Rivulus?
A.ft was made by Scott Taylor, a researcher in New york.
B.It was helped by an American magazine.
C.It was helped by Patricia Wright.
D.It was made by a researcher while travelling.
