When we read realistic, we have to imagine that the people we are reading about are just like us, even though we that we are real and they are . It sounds ,but it works. When we read, we fill in missing information and about the causes and effects of what a character does. We help the writer by that what we read is like real life. In a way, we are writing the book, too.

Most of us probably don’t think about what is going on in our when we are reading. We pick up a book and lose in a good story, eager to find out what will happen next. Knowing how we feel we read can help us become better readers, and it will help us discover more about the real magic of books.

When Christopher Columbus landed on the then unnamed Costa Rica in 1502, he saw many Indians wearing gold earrings. So he thought the land must be rich in gold. He named the place Costa Rica, which means “rich coast” in Spanish.

Though little gold was found, Costa Rica today is indeed rich with coffee and bananas. Coffee is the most important product in Costa Rica and most of it is exported (出口) to other countries like America and West Germany. Bananas are the country’s second most important export.

Boys and girls go to separate (單獨(dú)的) schools. Classes begin in March and end in November.

The Cuban iguana(大蜥蜴) is a species of lizard(蜥蜴) of the iguana family. It is the largest of the West Indian rock iguanas, one of the most endangered groups of lizards. This species with red eyes and a thick tail is one of the largest lizards in the Caribbean.

The Cuban iguana is primarily herbivorous; 95% of its diet consists of the leaves, flowers and fruits from as many as 30 plant species, including the seaside rock bush and various grasses.However, Cuban iguanas occasionally consume animal matter, and individuals have been observed eating the dead flesh of birds, fish and crabs, The researchers wrote that quite a few people on Isla Magueyes could have caused this incident.

The Cuban iguana is distributed throughout the rocky southern coastal areas of mainland Cuba and its surrounding islands with a wild population booming on Isla Magueyes, Puerto Rico. It is also found on the Cayman Islands of Little Cayman and Cayman Brac, where a separate subspecies occurs. Females guard their nest sites and often nest in sites half destroyed by Cuban crocodiles. To avoid the attack from them, the Cuban iguana often makes its home within or near prickly-pear cacti (仙人掌).

In general the species is in decline, more quickly on the mainland than on the outlying islands. One of the reasons for their decline is habitat destruction caused by the over consuming of farm animals, housing development, and the building of tourist resorts on the beaches where the animals prefer to build their nests. Although the wild population is in decline, the numbers of iguanas have been sharply increased as a result of captive-breeding(圈養(yǎng)) and other conservation programs.

1.The underlined word "herbivorous" (Paragraph 2) probably means .

A. dangerous B. gentle

C.flesh-eating D. plant-eating

2.Why does the Cuban iguana build its nest near prickly-pear cacti?

A. To keep itself cool.

B. To avoid crocodiles' attack.

C. To stay away from people.

D.To get the food easily.

3.How many reasons are mentioned for the habitat destruction?

A. Two. B.Five. C. Four. D. Three.

4.What's the author's purpose of writing the text?

A. To give us a brief introduction to the Cuban iguana.

B. To show he is concerned about the Cuban iguana.

C. To explain reasons for the Cuban iguana's decline.

D. To draw people's attention to the endangered Cuban iguana.

There are stock markets (股票市場(chǎng)) in large cities in many countries. Stock markets in Paris,

London, Tokyo, Shanghai and New York are among the largest and most well-known. The stock, also called stock exchange, is a place where people can buy or sell shares of a factory or company. And each share means certain ownership(所有權(quán)) of a factory or company.

Different people go to stock markets. Some are rich, who want to get more money than they

have. Others are not very rich, who buy stocks to try to become rich. Still others buy stocks as

part of their plan to save money.

Of course, investing (投資) money in the stock market is not the safest way to make money.

No one can tell exactly whether the shares will be doing well. The factory or company may

do badly. Then the stocks will go down, and the investors will lose money. The stock may go up or down for a number of untold reasons. Everyone wants the stock to go up, but sometimes even if a factory or company does a good job, the stock may still go down.

Going to the stock market is often like gambling (賭博). All want to make money by

“gambling’ in the stock market. Factories and companies that need money are pleased that so many people are ready to “gamble”. Indeed, the stock market is an attractive(吸引人的) but complex part of the business world.

1.If you are a good investor, ________ in the stock market.

A. you can always make money
