James daughterBA bag is useful and the word “bag” is useful, too. It reminds us of an interesting phrase, i.e. “to let the cat out the bag”. In meaning it is the same as “to tell the secret”. And there is an old interesting story about it.Long ago, when farmers wanted to sell chickens at the market, most of the time they would just throw the chickens in cloth bags. But cats were cheaper than chickens, so many farmers would put cats into the cloth bag instead of chickens. One day, a woman asked a man for chicken. The man gave her a cloth bag in which there was a cat. The woman begged to see the chicken. When the man opened the cloth bag, a big black cat ran out. Not a chicken! The mans secret was out and everyone knew it.Now when someone lets out a secret, he “let the cat out of the bag”. And that is the story where the interesting phrase comes from.50. The phrase “to let the cat out of the bag” came from _.A. a woman and a chicken B. a man and a catC. a chicken and a cat D. an interesting story51. The woman wanted to buy _.A. a cloth bag B. a chicken C. a black cat D. a bag and a chicken52. Why did the farmer put cats into their cloth bags instead of chickens?A. Because the farmers liked cats.

Scientists say were all born with a sense of direction, but it is not property understood howit works .One theory is that people with a good sense of direction have simply worked harder at developing it. Research being carried out at Liverpool University supports this idea and suggests that if we dont use it. We lose it . “Children as young as seven have the ability to find their way around.” says Jim Martland, research Director of the project . “However if they are not allowed out alone or are taken everywhere by car ,they never develop the skills” Jim Martland also emphasizes that young people should be taught certain skills to improve their sense of direction. He makes the following suggestions.If you are using a map, turn it so it relates to the way you are facing.If you leave your bike in a strange place, put it near something like a big stone or a tree. Note landmarks on the route as you go away from your bike .When you return, go back along the same route.Simplify the way of finding your direction by using lines such as streets in a town,streams, or walls in the countryside to guide you . Count your steps so that you know how far you have gone and note any landmarks such as tower blocks or hills which can help to find out where you are. Now what you need never gets lost again!55Scientists believe that _. .Asome babies are born with a sense of directionBpeople learn a sense of direction as they grow olderCpeople never lose their sense of directionMartian Language They have created their own code-like online language. Its a mixture of English, Japanese and Chinese that perhaps only Martians can understand.This is an imaginative generation,though they need to be careful tokeep it out of their term papers.Deverybody posses a sense of direction from birth56What is true of seven-year-old children according to the passage?AThey never have a sense of direction without maps.BThey should never be allowed out alone if they lack a sense of direction.CThey have a sense of direction and can find their way around.DThey can develop a good sense of direction if they are driven around in a car.57If you leave your bike in a strange place ,you should _ .Self-portraitSaying “cheese” to their own digital cameras is routinefor this generation. A little bit of narcissism（自恋） never hurts anyone. It helps them reflect a little on their own lives. But be aware of the risks of posting private photos online.Atie it to a tree so as to prevent it from being stolenBdraw a map of the route to help remember where it is Cavoid taking the same route when you come back in it Dremember something easily recognizable on the routeD AAAGH！The Generation 90s is coming!Wearing earphones, using complicated Net language and constantly text messaging friends, the Gen-90s following the Gen-80s begin to make their world debut.Each generation or age group has its own symbols and lifestyle.

Of course,life is not always music to the ears.Text-messagingThey can type their mobile Phones as fast as they can speak. This is a generation that respects efficiency.

A sense of humor can be developed in our life.C. A sense of humor helps us from several aspects.D. A sense of humor means more than telling jokes.E. A sense of humor can be expressed in many ways.F. A sense of humor helps people to better enjoy life.61. _ As awareness of the benefits of humor increases, most of us want to get all the laughs we can. It seems that almost every day there is another new discovery about the power of humor to help us physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Every system of the body responds to laughter in some important or positive way.62. _ Many people mistakenly believe that we are born with a sense of humor. They think that when it comes to a sense of humor, “either youve got it or you dont.” This is false. What is true, however, is that the ability to laugh and smile is actually something we are born with. For example, we laugh when we are tickled under the arm, even without thinking about how to react.63. _ The parts of the brain and central nervous system that control laughing and smiling are mature at birth in human infants, but that is not the same thing as having a sense of humor. (After all, when a baby laughs in his small bed we dont rush over and say, “That kid has a great sense of humor.”) Your sense of humor is something you can develop over a lifetime. Dont be nervous before others and try to laugh at yo
