【題目】Have you ever wondered why birds sing？Maybe you thought that they were just happy.After all，you probably sing or whistle when you are happy.

Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy.However，they sing most of the time for a very different reason.Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.

Do you know what a “territory” is？A territory is an area that an animal，usually the male，claims (聲稱) as its own.Only he and his family are welcome there.No other families of the same species are welcome.Your yard and house are your territory where only your family and friends are welcome.If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you，you might shout.Probably this would be enough to frighten him away.

If so，you have actually scared the stranger away without having to fight him.A bird does the same thing.But he expects an outsider almost any time，especially at nesting season.So he is screaming all the time，whether he can see an outsider or not.This screaming is what we call a bird’s song，and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.

Birds sing loudest in the spring when they are trying to attract a mate and warn others not to enter the territory of theirs.

You can see that birds have a language all their own.Most of it has to do with attracting mates and setting up territories.

【1】What is a bird’s “territory”？

A. A place where families of other species are not accepted.

B. A place where a bird may shout at the top of its voice.

C. An area for which birds fight against each other.

D. An area which a bird considers to be its own.

【2】Why do birds keep on singing at nesting season?

A. Because they want to invite more friends.

B. Because their singing helps frighten outsiders away.

C. Because they want to find outsiders around.

D. Because their singing helps get rid of their fears.

【3】How does the writer explain birds’ singing?

A. By describing birds’ daily life.

B. By reporting experiment results.

C. By comparing birds with human beings.

D. By telling.

【題目】閱讀理解
When her five daughters were young, Helen An always told them that there was strength in unity (團結(jié)). To show this, she held up one chopstick, representing one person. Then she easily broke it into two pieces. Next, she tied several chopsticks together, representing a family. She showed the girls it was hard to break the tied chopsticks. This lesson about family unity stayed with the daughters as they grew up.
Helen An and her family own a large restaurant business in California. However, when Helen and her husband Danny left their home in Vietnam in 1975, they didn't have much money. They moved their family to San Francisco. There they joined Danny's mother, Diana, who owned a small Italian sandwich shop. Soon afterwards, Helen and Diana changed the sandwich shop into a small Vietnamese restaurant. The five daughters helped in the restaurant when they were young. However, Helen did not want her daughters to always work in the family business because she thought it was too hard.
Eventually the girls all graduated from college and went away to work for themselves, but one by one, the daughters returned to work in the family business. They opened new restaurants in San Francisco and Los Angeles. Even though family members sometimes disagreed with each other, they worked together to make the business successful. Daughter Elizabeth explains, “Our mother taught us that to succeed we must have unity, and to have unity we must have peace. Without the strength of the family, there is no business.”
Their expanding business became a large corporation in 1996, with three generations of Ans working together. Now the Ans' corporation makes more than $ 20 million each year. Although they began with a small restaurant, they had big dreams, and they worked together. Now they are a big success.
（1）Helen tied several chopsticks together to show ________.
A.the strength of family unity
B.the difficulty of growing up

【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，選擇最佳答案。
Scientists investigated why Ebola virus is so deadly when it spreads from animals to humans and then from human-to-human contact. The research team looked at the Zaire Ebola virus in an animal system to understand how it gains strength. This virus is responsible for the current outbreak in West Africa. They found that initially the animal systems were not affected by the virus, but succeeding transmission(傳送) into other animals caused the virus to “hot up” and become more severe.
The team analyzed the viruses at different stages and were able to identify several changes in its genetic material that were associated with increased disease.
Professor Julian Hiscox, who led the study from the University's Institute of Infection and Global Health, explains: “The work tells us that the evolutionary goal of Ebola virus is to become more fatal.”
“We were able to show through genetic analysis which parts of the virus are involved in this process. The information we have gathered will now allow us to monitor for such changes in an outbreak as well as develop future treatment strategies.”
Professor Roger Hewson, leading the study from Public Health England, Porton Down, said: “Ebola virus is such a destructive infection to the people affected by the disease and the economy of West Africa.”
“Our understanding of Ebola virus biology is way behind that of other viruses and our cooperation shows how we can bring together our specialists' skills to close this knowledge gap.”
Professor Miles Carroll, a co-author of the work, said: “This study has allowed the team to be at the forefront of developing methodologies to analyze patient samples recently taken by the European Mobile Laboratory from West Africa to understand disease evolution during the current outbreak.”
（1）What does the first paragraph mainly tell us?
A.How severe Ebola virus is.
B.How Ebola virus spreads.
C.How Ebola virus gradually becomes deadly.
D.What contributions scientists have made on Ebola virus.
（2）Which of the following statements is mentioned in the passage?
A.In the first stage, the virus hurts its victims much.
B.As the virus spreads, it'll change and become more and more deadly.
C.The research in Ebola virus is more advanced than that in other viruses.
D.The scientists have a negative attitude to the research in Ebola virus.
（3）The underlined word “fatal” has the closest meaning to ______.
A.optimistic
B.deadly
C.common
D.fantastic
（4）Where can we probably read this passage?
A.In a science report.
B.In a storybook.
C.In an advertisement.
D.In a textbook.

【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，選擇最佳答案。
In the United States, when one becomes rich, he wants people to know it. And even if he does not become very rich, he wants people to think that he is. That is what “keeping up with the Joneses” is about. It is the story of someone who tried to look as rich as his neighbors.
The expression was first used in 1913 by a young American called Arthur Momand. He told this story about himself. He began earning $ 125 a week at the age of 23. That was a lot of money in those days. He got married and moved with his wife to a very wealthy neighborhood outside New York City. When he saw that rich people rode horses, Momand went horseback riding every day. When he saw that rich people had servants, Momand and his wife also hired a servant and gave big parties for their new neighbors.
It was like a race, but one could never finish his race because one was always trying to keep up. The race ended for Momand and his wife when they could no longer pay for their new way of life. They moved back to an apartment in New York City.
Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with rich lifestyle of their neighbors. He saw the funny side of it and started to write a series of short stories. He called it “Keeping up with the Joneses” because “Jones” is a very common name in the United States. “Keeping up with the Joneses” came to mean keeping up with rich lifestyle of the people around you. Momand's series appeared in different newspapers across the country for over 28 years.
People never seem to get tired of keeping up with the Joneses. And there are “Joneses” in every city of the world. But one must get tired of trying to keep up with the Joneses because no matter what one does, Mr. Jones always seems to be ahead.
（1）Some people want to keep up with the Joneses because they ________.
A.want to be as rich as their neighbors
B.want others to know or to think that they are rich
C.don't want others to know they are rich
D.want to be happy
（2）It can be inferred (推斷) from the story that rich people like to ________.
A.live outside New York City
B.live in New York city
C.live in apartments
D.have many neighbors
（3）Arthur Momand used the name “Jones” in his series of short stories because “Jones” is _____.
A.an important name
B.a popular name in the United States
C.his neighbor's name
D.not a good name
（4）According to the writer, it is ________ to keep up with the Joneses.
A.correct

Make sure the lights can store enough energy.
Different solar lights can store different amounts of energy Therefore, you should choose lights that are able to store enough energy to last for a few hours or more,at least those that will last from nightfall throughout most of the night and part of the morning.
