Six months ago I made a rash(輕率的) promise. The leader of the youth 41 in our village rang me in March saying, “We’ re thinking of running a children's play program for a 42 in October half-term. Would you be prepared to 43 ?” My response was, “Sure,why not?” 44 I was a little flattered(榮幸的) to be asked,even though working as a care assistant with old people hardly 45 me for the role. Still,I put the date in my diary. Time flew and 46 I knew it,the day finally came.

   I arrived at the youth centre that morning feeling full of 47 . There were 12 helpers including me and each pair had been allocated(分配) a particular 48 group. Mine was the 10 to 11 year olds.

  All too quickly the children began 49 . A handful of them were already members of the club but the other forty-five were from the local primary schools. 50 I asked myself why I had decided to spend a day with all these “l(fā)ittle monsters” 51 when I have two of my own!I needn't have 52 of course as it turned out to be a 53 day. We learned “action” songs,decorated biscuits and played memory games. I say because I rediscovered my inner 54 and joined in all the activities.

   The most 55 was the final performance of “He's got the whole world in his hands” in the 56 part of the day. The children knew the words and actions off by heart and sang so 57 it was almost enough to bring the roof down. It made you 58 to witness something so magical.

   There was one 59 for the children and that was that the play program was only running for a day,and not the whole week. As I said goodbye to my group,one of the children 60 and said “Can we do it again in the next holiday,Miss?” My response was, “Sure,why not?”

   I strong recommend that physical activities in children are encouraged. Parents who are supposed to make sure that their children get some form of exercise one hour daily because exercise is better for character building. When this comes to exercise,many people end up picturing heavy exercise at the gym. As matter of fact,exercise for children can mean going out and having funs. For example,they can walk or cycle to nearby places instead of take a bus. They can take their dogs out for 15-minute walks twice a day.Beside,children should be encouraged to make new friends for whom they can actively play sports.

   Cities,whether big and small,should be clean. Only when we live in a clean city we live a happy life. As we know,a clean city,that disease may be reduced and people’s health may be better,are good both to our mind and body. No one believes people lived in a dirty city with waste everywhere can live happy. However,for more and more people moving into cities,it is not easy to keep our city clean. Beside,some factories still pour out waste into the air,* river and onto the ground,making it is hard to keep our city clean. To make our city the better place to live in,we still have a lot to do.

   Nobody likes feeling lonely,and isolation (孤立) isn’t only a psychological problem. Loneliness increases a persons risk of death by 26 percent,an effect comparable to the health risks posed by obesity.

   So some researchers are investigating what it is,exactly,that makes lonely people stay lonely. One long-held theory has been that people become socially isolated because of their poor social skills — as they spend more time alone,the few skills they do have start to fail from lack of use. But new research suggests that this is a fundamental misunderstanding of the socially isolated. It's just that when they’ re in situations where they need those skills the most,they choke.

   Professor Megan L. Knowles and her team tested the social skills of 86 undergraduates,showing them 24 faces oif a computer screen and asking them to name the basic human emotion each face was showing: anger,fear,happiness,or sadness. In the end,the lonelier students did worse than the non-lonely students on the emotion-reading task — but only when they were told they were being tested on their social skills. When the lonely were told they were just taking a general knowledge test,they performed better than the non-lonely.

   So the lonelier people are,the better they are at accurately reading facial expressions and decoding tone of voice. Lonely people may be paying closer attention to emotional cues (暗示) precisely because of their willingness to belong somewhere and form interpersonal connections,which results in technically superior social skills.

   This presents a fairly new way to think about lonely people. It's not that they need to improve the basics of social skills,which they,ve likely already shared. Instead,lonely people may need to focus more on getting out of their own heads,so they can actually use the skills theyve got to form friendships and begin to find a way out of their isolation.

29. According to the traditional point of view,why do lonely people stay lonely?

   A. They are happy to stay alone.

   B. They are difficult to get along with.

   C. They have few chances to practice social skills.

   D. They are likely to misunderstand others’ opinion.

30. In the test mentioned in Paragraph 3 ,the lonely performed better when they.

   A. felt not very lonely

   B. were under great pressure

   C. were told it was a test on social skills

   D. did not know the real purpose of the test

31. Compared to non-lonely people,lonely people.

   A. can better control their emotions

   B. can better express their emotions

   C. can better read people's emotions

   D. can better handle peoples emotions 

32. What inspiration may lonely people get from the text?

   A. Be brave to make friends.

   B. Show sincerity in friendship.

   G. Find ways to learn social skills.

   D. Make good use of your lonely time.

   At first glance,why anyone would want to save California  condors(禿鷹) is not entirely clear. Unlike the closely related Andean condors with their white neck feathers,California condors are not much to see. Their dull black color,featherl'ess head and neck and oversized feet are hardly signs of beauty oi^ strength. Their appeal begins to become evident when they take flight. California condors can fly almost effortlessly for hours,often covering hundreds of miles a day 一 far more than other creatures of the air.

   When it was discovered that the condor population was becoming dangerously small,scientists and zookeepers sought to increase condor numbers quickly to preserve as much of the species’ geneic(基因的) diversity as possible. From studying wild condors,they already knew that if a pair lost an egg,the birds would often produce another. So the first and sometimes second eggs laid by e往ch female were removed,and artificially hatched. Such techniques quickly proved effective.

   Despite these successes,the effort to save California condors continues to have problems. Artificially hatched condors released(釋放) to the wild have died at what to some people are alarmingly high rates. Others have had to be brought back again after they acted foolishly.

   Some of the odd behavior on the part of these re-released birds is hard to explain. At times they landed on people's houses,walked across roads and airport runways,walked into park visitor centers and fast food restaurants,and took food offered by picnickers and fishermen. None are known to have died by doing so,though. Most recently,some of the first chicks hatched in the wild died after their parents fed them bottle caps,pieces of plastic and other man-made objects.

   Mike Wallace,a wildlife specialist at the San Diego Zoo,has suggested that some of the condors’ problems represent natural behavior that helps them survive. The real key to successful condor reintroduction lies in properly socializing young condors as members of a group that follow and learn from older,preferably adult birds. That,he argues,was missing from earlier condor releases to the wild.

28. What is the California condor's most impressive feature?

   A. Its beautiful colors.

   B. Its remarkable flying ability.

   C. The large size of its neck and feet.

   D. The similarity it has to the Andean condor.

29. In the initial stage of the conservation programme, .

   A. eggs were taken from the nests of wild condors

   B. female condors were caught and studied carefully

   C. scientists and zookeepers tried to create genetic diversity

   D. condors were encouraged to produce a lot more eggs

30. What did some of the condors released into the wild do?.

   A. They adapted surprisingly quickly to their new surroundings.

   B. They showed a tendency to seek out human contact.

   C. They died from eating too much fast food.

   D. They kept changing their eating habits.

31. According to Mike Wallace,there will be fewer problems if .

   A. young condors are trained not to eat man-made objects

   B. the chicks are surrounded by older birds when they hatch

   G. the chicks are released into the wild as soon as they hatch

   D. young condors are taught appropriate behavior by adult birds

   In science,people copy ideas from nature or natural processes to solve problems or to create products which will serve a specific purpose to help us. This is called biomimicry and its influence can be seen in many everyday products.

   We are all familiar with Velcro? (魔術貼) .It was invented in 1941 by a Swiss engineer called George de Mestral,who found some seeds stuck to his dog's hair. Under the microscope,he discovered that these seeds had hooks (鉤) on them,so they could easily stick to clothing or hair. He copied this idea and invented Velcro?. It was initially unpopular with fashion companies but after it was used by NASA (美國國家航空航天局) to stop items floating in space,it became popular with children's clothing companies.

   More recently,swimwear has also been influenced by nature. The Speedo Fastskin?, a controversial swimsuit,was seen at the Beijing Olympics and worn by 28 of the 33 gold medal winners. The technology is based on the rough patterns on a shark's skin,which allows the shark to swim faster. Shark skin also stops bacteria growing on it'so scientists are copying this surface to design cleaner hospitals.

   For NASA. protecting astronauts' eyes from the sun's rays and other dangerous radiation is very important. Scientists studied how eagles see things clearly. They discovered that a substance(物質(zhì)) called yellow oil in their eyes does the trick. NASA copied this oil and it is now used by astronauts and pilots in Eagle Eyes? glasses. In addition to protecting eyes from all the dangerous rays,these sunglasses also help people see more clearly in even poor weather conditions such as fog.

   It appears that the influence of biomimicry is unlimited,so it will be interesting to see what solutions nature provides us with in the future.

32. George de Mestral invented Velcro? .

   A. to challenge fashion companies

   B. after he examined some seeds

   C. after he studied his dog's hair

   D. to satisfy NASA’s demand 

33. At the Beijing Olympics,the Speedo Fastskin?  swimsuit .

   A. was recommended by champions

   B. helped swimmers perform better

   C. received widespread approval

   D. made swimmers healthier

34. What makes eagles see clearly?

   A. The size of their eyes.

   B. The shape of their eyes.

   C. The colour of their eyes.

   D. The substance in their eyes.

35. What's the best title for the text?

   A. The future of biomimicry
