Ann Moore introduced the idea of a baby carrier to American people nearly 50 years ago.Ann spent two years in Africa in the early 1960s. She worked as a nurse there. Ann saw babies wrapped in bright cloth tied to their mothers backs. The

23、babies snuggled (依偎) close to their mothers, and the mothers could use their hands to do other things.In 1964, Ann had her own baby. She tried making a carrier like the one African mothers used. The carrier was like a backpack. Everywhere Ann went with her baby in the carrier, people asked, “Where c

24、an I buy one?” In 1965, Ann and her mother began to sell handmade carriers. Ann received a patent (专利) for the baby carrier in 1969. By that time, the baby carrier had leg holes and straps (带子) that could be made longer or shorter. It could also be worn on the back or front.By 1979, the baby carrier

25、s were made in a factory. These baby carriers cost less to make and more than 25,000 were sold every month.When Ann made her first baby carrier, she just wanted to keep her baby close and still have her hands free to do other things.

29、e first city in the US to join the “Lights Out Plan”. People turned off the lights in the citys tallest buildings, so that thousands of birds could get to their winter homes. Every year in autumn, some birds fly over Chicago on their way to the south, and come back the next springLights mean danger

30、to birds. Birds find their way by looking at the stars in the sky. Lights in tall buildings are so bright that birds may mistake them as stars. This means they can not find the right way to go homeThis month, about 300 types of birds are flying over Chicago to go back to the south to live through th

31、e cold winter. Birds fly to warmer places for a few reasons. Many birds cannot live in the cold, so they fly to warmer places. But there are other reasons，too. Birds need to look for food in the south. Another reason is that they want to have baby birds. Many birds like to have their baby birds in t

32、he same “house” they lived in last year, so they fly back there.There are about 9,000 kinds of birds in the world, and about 600 kinds of birds migrate（迁徙）. Some birds can fly a very long way. Sometimes they fly to other countries. We have fewer birds today because there are fewer places for birds1W

35、 of birds migrate in the worldD16、Last night I had an unusual dream. I dreamed that I was flying. When I moved my arms up and down, I moved higher into the sky. I felt as free as a bird. Martha, aged 35 I had a bad dream that kept coming back. I walked out of my bedroom, and a monster came out and c

36、hased me. Jason, aged 14Just like a movie, a dream has a story to tell and it has something to do with your life. Dreams are like scenes in a movie. So, take a closer look at your dreams, your dreams may be telling you something. Dreams can open doors into your world. Flying is a positive symbol in

37、a dream. Flying in dreams may mean success, confidence, and “being on top of it all.”Monsters in dreams often show fears. For Jason, the monsters may stand for the adults who control his life. Or it may mean Jasons fears about growing up and he is very upset.Here are some other common symbols in dre

38、ams:Mountains: Mountains are difficulties, so to dream of successfully climbing a mountain can show a true feeling of achievement. Big waves: Water is peaceful in life. But a big wave(波浪) in dreams probably means an emotional(情感的) worry.Food: Food is a symbol of knowledge, because it nourishes the b

39、ody just as information nourishes the brain. However, it could just be food.According to Scientific American, an American science magazine, dreaming is a way to create a memory of your current(当前的) emotion. You may dream the same things again and again. They are like a bridge which connects your exp

40、erience with your emotion and memories. They will help you get a better understanding of yourself.1What might Marthas dream tell her?AShe may be afraid of flying.BShe may like flying a lot.CShe may be very successful.DShe may be very upset.2What does the underlined word “it” refer to?AMovie.BDreamCS

41、tory.DLife.3If you dream of climbing mountains successfully, how may you feel?AAfraid.BPeaceful.CWorried.DSatisfied4What might happen to Jason before he slept according to his dream?AHe went swimming in the pool with friends.BHe was forced to take after-school classes.CHe felt very confident about h

42、is schoolwork.DHe read a book about making Russian soup.5What can you learn from the passage?AJason chased the monster in his dream.BFood in a dream means the fear of life.CYou wont dream about the same things again.DYou may know more about yourself from dreams.E17、 Science has a lot of uses. It can

43、 uncover laws of nature, cure diseases, make bombs, and help bridges to stand up. Indeed science is so good at what it does that theres always a temptation(诱惑) to drag it into problems where it may not be helpful. David Brooks, author of The Social Animal: The Hidden Sources of Love, Character, and

44、Achievement, appears to be the latest in a long line of writers who have failed to go against the temptation.Brooks gained fame for several books. His latest book The Social Animal, however, is more ambitious and serious than his earlier books. It is an attempt to deal with a set of weighty topics.

45、The book focuses on big questions: What has science uncovered about human nature? What are the sources of character? And why are some people happy and successful while others arent?To answer these questions, Brooks studies a wide range of disciplines（学科）. Considering this, you might expect the book

46、to be a simple description of facts. But Brooks has formed his book in an unusual, and perhaps unfortunate way. Instead of introducing scientific theories, he tells a story, within which he tries to make his points, perhaps in order to keep the readers attention. So as Harold and Erica, the hero and

47、 heroine in his story, live through childhood, we hear about the science of child development and as they begin to date we hear about the theory of sexual attraction. Brooks carries this through to the death of one of his characters.On the whole, Brooks story is acceptable if uninspired. As one woul

48、d expect, his writing is mostly clear and, to be fair, some chapters stand out above the rest. I enjoyed, for instance, the chapter in which Harold discovers how to think on his own. While Harold and Erica are certainly not strong or memorable characters, the more serious problems with The Social An

49、imal lie elsewhere. These problems partly involve Brooks attempt to translate his tale into science.1The author mentions the functions of science at the beginning of the passage to_.Aexplain where science can be appliedBshow the value of Brooks new bookCremind the reader of the importance of science

50、Dexplain why many writers use science in their works2According to the author, which of the following could be a strength of the book?AIts strong basis.BIts clear writing.CIts convincing points.DIts memorable characters.3What is the authors general attitude towards the book?AContradictory.BSupportive

51、.CCautious.DCritical.4What is the author likely to write about after the last paragraph?ADeath of the characters.BBrooks life experience.CProblems with the book.DBrooks translation skills.F18、 A teacher says music education in schools has kind of turned into amusement, Classroom lessons focus heavil

52、y on pop while understanding the classical （古典的）art form and its history should be paid attention to. A professor in music and music education at the University of NSW, Robert Walker, argues that all students should study the works of Western classical composers such as Haydn and Tchaikovsky. Profes

53、sor Walker says students are missing out on an important part of the culture heritage （遗产）because they fail to study classical music, as the little music that children learn at school is mainly pop. The lack （缺乏）of music teaching is serious, especially in government schools where there are not enoug

54、h specialist （专业的） music teachers. A national review in 2005 made 15 suggestions, but Professor Walker said it still failed to deal with the lack of classical music taught in schools. Im not against pop music, but its very simple, and not difficult either to play or to sing, Professor Walker says. B

55、ut classical music is challenging and although it is part of Australias culture heritage, most children learn it only through Hollywood films. At least children ought to know whats happening in Western culture. Its part of culture heritage, he says. Asian students know more about Western classical m

56、usic than most children in the West. Professor Walker has taught music and music teachers in Britain, Canada and Australia and is a former chief （首席的）examiner for the International Baccalaureate and a former chairman of the research committee of the International Society for Music Education. Profess

57、or Walker says no school curriculum （课程）in Australia lists a piece of music that children should study , such as the Mendelssohns. This lack of standard texts means that some children can be brought up totally on Western classical music, others on Elvis Presley, or on any music the teacher wants to

58、teach. The situation should be changed as soon as possible, he says.1Whats the problem in music education in Professor Walkers opinion?AChildren know nothing about their culture heritage.BClassical music education isnt valued in schools.CPop music is simple and not difficult to play and sing.DAustralian schools need more specialist music teachers.2According to the passage, students should study classical music because it is _ .Apart of culture heritage
