A microscope is a useful instrument for observing small objects. By producing a bigger image, the microscope reveals details that are undetectable to the naked eye(裸眼).
Before using the microscope, please read the instructions below.
CAUTION: Microscopes are both delicate and expensive and must be handled with care.
1. Always carry the microscope with two hands — one supporting the base and the other on the arm.
2. Avoid stretching the wire of the lamp across a walkway.
3. Keep the stage clean and always use a glass slide for specimens(樣本).
4. To avoid crushing the glass slide when focusing, begin with the lens close to the specimen and gradually back off to focus.
5. Keep the microscope covered to prevent the dust while it is being stored.
HOW TO USE THE MICROSCOPE:
1. Plug(接通電源) in the lamp.
2. Place a sample of what you wish to observe on a slide.
3. Adjust the mirror so it reflects light from the room up into the objective lens. When the mirror is correctly adjusted, a complete circle of light iwll appear when you look through the eyepiece.
4. Place your slide with the specimen directly over the center of the glass circle on teh stage. If it is a wet slide, be sure the bottom of the slide is dry.
5. With the LOW POWER objective leans placed over the slide, use the coarse focus knob to lower the lens to the lowest point.
6. Look through the eyepiece with one eye while closing the other eye. Slowly raise the lens until teh focus is relatively clear.
7. Use the fine focus knob to fine -tune(微調)the focus.
8. Without changing the focus knobs, switch to the HIGH POWER objective lens. Once you have switched to HIGH POWER, use only the fine focus knob to make the image sharper.
小題1:Which of the following is the correct way to use a microscope according to the text?
A．Use one hand to carry the microscope
B．Place a sample directly on the clean stage
C．When stored, the microscope should be adjusted.
D．Look through the eyepiece with one eye.
小題2:If you want to observe a thin piece of hair, which of the following should you do first.?

Look closely at ,your hands-are they clean? It doesn't matter how many times you was  your hands. They're still crowded with microbes, which are also called "germs" or "bacteria". Microbes are everywhere. But don't worry-most microbes don't harm you. and many actually help you stay alive.
Now,  scientists say the microbes that live on our hands could be used in a surprising way: fighting crime.
When police visit the scene of a crime, they often look for fingerprints to try to identifythe criminal.  But according to a recent study, investigators could even use microbes to help break a criminal case.
Every person has his or her own set of microbes that live on their hands, according to scientists at,the University of:Colorado. That means the mix of different kinds of microbes on everybody's hand is unique-much like one's fingerprint.
The scientists wanted to know whether this microbe mix could be used as a new kind of fingerprint-especially in a crime scene where fingerprints might be hard to find.  And policemen use forensics such as studying fingerprints to identify the criminal.
"Microbe fingerprints are harder to hide," said Noah Fierer, one of the scientists.
"You can't sterilize(為……殺菌) a surface just by wiping it off. "
His team compared the bacteria on the hands of 273 people with the bacteria found on each person's computer keyboard. For the study, the keyboards had been used only by the people who were being tested. The study showed that the mix of microbes from each per- son's hands matched the mix of microbes on that person's keyboard. The scientists were easily able to tell the 273 people apart-just by looking at their keyboards.
But there are a lot more than 273 criminals. Other scientists wonder whetherthe microbe fingerprint can really be that useful. 
Fierer agrees that scientists have a lot more work to do before the microbe fingerprint will be a useful tool．
小題1:According to the passage,  microbes on people's hands_____
A．do more harm than goodB．are easy to get rid of
C．are almost the sameD．might help find crimes
小題2:The underlined word "forensics" in Paragraph 5 probably refers to________.
A．the scientific test used by police
B．a new kind of fingerprint
C．a kind of bacteria'in people's hands
D．a kind of newly invented keyboard
小題3:What did Fierer's team find through the study?
A．They found the criminal among the 237 people.
B．They could tell who had used which computer.
C．Computer keyboards couldn't keep people's microbe fingerprints.
D．People's characters could be identified by the keyboards they used.
小題4:We can learn from the passage that ______.
A．your microbes may give you away
B．scientists will come to a clear conclusion soon
C．many scientists think microbe fingerprints useless
D．the microbe fingerprint has been used in many cases
小題5:The main idea of the passage is about_____.
A．the importance of fingerprintsB．how to clean our hands
C．the usefulness of microbesD．different germs on our hands

Nature is full of color, from rainbows and roses to butterfly wings and peacock tails. Even the fruits and vegetables you eat have different colors: blue blueberries, red strawberries, green broccoli, and orange carrots.
Plant and animals often use color to attract attention. The substances responsible for these colors belong to a class of chemical called antioxidants(抗氧化物). Plants make antioxidant to protect themselves from the sun’s ultraviolet(UV)(紫外線)light.
Ultraviolet light causes chemicals called free radicals(自由基)to form within plant cells. They can destroy parts of plant. Free radicals also have damaging effects on human beings. Some of these effects like wrinkled skin can be seen. The damage is caused by the free radicals attacking cells in our bodies. Certain cancers and heart disease are linked to free radicals.
Our bodies have natural defences for fighting off free radicals. While we are young, our defences are pretty strong. However, they get weaker as we get older. The body’s built-in defences can only go so far without extra help.
The key to fighting free radicals with fruits and vegetables is to mix and match colors. It’s like sunscreen(防曬霜)for the inside of your body. Go for a range of very bright colors. Colorful foods contain hundreds of healthy chemicals not found anywhere else.
Research into how chemicals in blueberries affect the brain’s function in rats suggests that these chemicals may help our own brains work more efficiently.
Don’t just blame the sun. Ultraviolet light isn’t the only source of free radicals. If you breathe polluted air such as smog, automobile exhaust(廢氣), or wasted gas from a factory, you take in chemicals that also cause such damage. And, the body itself produces free radicals as it processes food.
小題1:Which of the following not true?
A．Antioxidants are responsible for plant colors
B．Plants use color to attract attention
C．Antioxidants can protect plants from UV light
D．Antioxidants help free radicals to attack plants
小題2:In which order do the following facts occur?
a Wrinkled skin can be seen
b UV light causes free radicals to form
c Free radicals damage cells in our bodies
d The sun gives out UV light
A．a,b,c,dB．d,b,c,a
C．c,a,d,bD．d,b,a,c
小題3:We need extra help for fighting off free radicals from fruits and vegetables because ____.
A．our bodies’ defences are not natural
B．we are too young to defend ourselves
C．our defences get weaker as we get older
D．our bodies’ built-in defences can only go away
小題4:Which of the following can not cause free radicals to form?
A．Colorful foodB．UV light from the sun
C．Polluted airD．The body itself

Fish have different personalities which change as they experience life’s highs and lows．according to British biologists．
Researchers identified different“personalities” in their fish by observing the boldness or shyness of individuals，according to The Nature．Like people，some fish are very confident in the face of novelty(新奇事物)or conflict；while others are silent and fear．
The scientists selected particularly bold and shy rainbow trout，and tested whether they changed their outlook depending on what life threw at them．They arranged some fish to fight and others to  watch to  see how both the participants  and  observers  responded to victories  and defeats．Winning or losing a fight，or even watching fellow fish overcome the difficulties influenced the future behavior of the creatures studied in the lab．
The researchers made fish compete with much larger or smaller opponents．to ensure that they would win or lose their fights．These bold fish that won their fights tended to be even bolder when later presented with  a novel food  item；losing their fight caused them to be  much more cautious．
Fish also learn by watching others．Bold fish watching a shy fish exploring a mystery object were much more nervous when later given a novelty item for themselves．
Predictably，shy fish that won a fight also gained more confidence，but surprisingly，shy fish that lost their fights also grew bolder when exploring strange new food，Sneddon said，adding that this could be due to what she calls a“desperado effect”(亡命徒效應)．
The new research suggests that animals can gradually adapt their personalities．The results echo the effects that life experience can have on human．
小題1:What does．the underlined word“creatures’’probably refer to?
A．Fish．B．Participants．C．Observers．D．Researchers．
小題2:The third paragraph of the text is mainly about—————．
A．a conclusion of the research
B．an explanation of fish characters
C．a statement of the experiment
D．a description of fish fights
小題3:What can we know from the research?
A．Bold losing fish become—e bolder when presented With a novel food item．
B．Losing their fights causes the bold fish to be much more courageous．
C．Bold fish watching a shy fish exploring a mystery get less nervous．
D．Shy fish losing fights grow more confident in exploring new food．
小題4:What’s the main idea of the text?’   
A．Fish have stress in the fierce fights．
B．Fish care about winning or losing a fight．
C．Fish have adaptable personalities．
D．Fish can learn a lot by watching others．

All parents know that one of their most important tasks is to prepare their children for an independent life, but any parent can tell you that it’s hard to let go of your children. That balance between keeping your children safe and allowing them to learn from their own mistakes can be heartbreaking. Years of experience means that parents often do know best, but on the other hand, the young, being less bound by tradition, are often more creative, more able to find new solutions to old problems. Revolutions are led by the young.
Good teachers make the growth of critical (批判性的) thinking easier in their students, only to find that this can lead to a questioning of the teachers’ basic beliefs. Schools encourage parents to become involved, but are often embarrassed when parents have reservations about some of the educational methods being used. Governments encourage unimportant groups to empower themselves in order to participate fully in the development process. And they are often surprised when the new leaders of these groups turn around and attack the policies of that same government. The rebellions (叛逆的)young and the newly unimportant groups are important in social development. They are not necessarily representatives of those they want to represent or not realistic in their demands, but their voices must be heard.
Good parents know that just forbidding particular behaviors does not prevent their children from finding ways to engage in these forbidden activities. Indeed, sometimes the forbidden fruit is more inviting, just because it is not accepted by authority. Parents must work with their children to educate them on the facts, know as much as possible about he lives of their children, provide a good example, encourage more wholesome activities but also support their children when they don’t follow what is expected of them. But the most important point is that they also need to learn how to let go.
小題1:By saying “Revolutions are led by the young”, the author indicates that young people are more     .
A．conventionalB．realisticC．creativeD．heartbreaking
小題2:From the second paragraph we know         .
A．teachers’ basic beliefs should be questioned by students
B．schools encourage parents to question their education methods
C．movement is satisfied with the new leaders’ attack on the policies
D．the voice of the rebellious young should be heard by the government
小題3:In order to educate children well, parents should          .
A．forbid particular behaviors in their daily life
B．know them well and set a good example to them
C．educate them with facts and expect much of them
D．know as much as possible as their children
小題4:From the passage we can learn that the author prefers         .
A．free parentingB．traditional parenting
C．critical parentingD．smart parenting
小題5:What is the best title of the passage?
A．Letting Go – for Children’s Independent Life
B．Parents’ Tasks – in Children’s Development
C．Way of Growth – for the Young Groups
D．Teaching Methods – for Teachers and Schools

One period of our lives when better results are demanded of us is, strangely enough, childhood. Despite being young we are expected to achieve good grades, stay out of trouble, make friends at school, do well on tests, perform chores (雜務)at home and so on. It’s not easy.
Likeable children enjoy many advantages, including the ability to deal more easily with stresses of growing up.In her book Understanding Child Stress, Dr. Carolyn Leonard states that children who are likeable and optimistic are able to gain support from others. This leads to focus and resilience（適應力）, the ability to recover from or adjust early to life stress. Much research shows that resilience has enabled children to succeed in school, avoid drug abuse, and develop a healthy self-awareness(自我意識).
Why does a likeable child more easily handle stress and do better in his or her life? Because likeability helps create what’s known as a positive feedback loop(回饋圈). The positive feelings you want to see in other people are returned to you, creating constant encouragement and motivation to deal with the daily stress of life.
This feedback loop continues into adulthood. To return once again to the example of teaching, learning becomes easier with a likeable personality. Michael Delucchi of the University of Hawaii reviewed dozens of studies to determine if likeable teachers received good ratings because of their likeability or because they in fact taught well. Delucchi found that “Students who perceive(察覺) a teacher as likeable, in contrast to(比照) those who do not, may be more attentive to the information that the teacher delivers and they’ll work harder on assignments, and they will learn more.”
You may have noticed this pattern in your own life when you try to give some advice. The more positive your relationship with that person, the more he or she seems to listen, and the more you feel certain that that person has heard you and intends to act on your words.
小題1:The writer implies in the first paragraph that __________.
A．life is not easy for every one of us
B．children are expected much than we usually think
C．better education results in smarter children
D．to be a likable child is almost impossible
小題2:According to Dr. Leonard, likeable children __________.
A．will work harder on assignments and learn more
B．can deal more easily with stress independently
C．can achieve more and understand themselves better
D．are always optimistic and ready to help those in need
小題3:The main purpose of the studies done by Michael Delucchi is to find __________.
A．how a likeable teacher’s teaching style is formed
B．how a teacher’s likeability gains popularity
C．if a likeable teacher draws more attention
D．if a likeable teacher has a positive personality
小題4:The passage aims at proving that __________.
A．likeable people give better advice
B．likeable people do better in their childhood
C．social creatures enjoy more advantages
D．likeable people do better in life generally
