A
We all know that people sometimes change their behavior when someone is looking their way. Now, a new study reported online on April 2nd in Current Biology shows that jackdaws —birdsrelated to crows with eyes that appear similar to human eyes —can do the same. “Jackdawsseem to recognize the eye’srole in visual perception, or at the very least they are extremely sensitive to the way that human eyes are oriented,”said Auguste von Bayern, formerly of the University of Cambridge and now at the University of Oxford.
When presented with a preferred food, hand-raised jackdaws took significantly longer to retrieve the reward when a person was directing his eyes towards the food than when he was looking away, according to the research team led by Nathan Emery of the University of Cambridge. The birds hesitated only when the person in question was unfamiliar and thus potentially threatening.
In addition, the birds were able to interpret human communicative gestures, such as gaze alternation and pointing to help them find hidden food, they found. The birds were unsuccessful in using static cues, including eye gaze or head orientation, in that context.
Unlike most birds, jackdaws’eyes have a dark pupil surrounded by a silvery white iris. The researchers said they believe jackdaws are probably sensitive to human eyes because, as in humans, eyes are an important means of communication for them. The hand-raised birds examined in the study may be even better than wild jackdaws at attending to human gaze and responding to the gestures of the people who have raised them.
The findings are particularly notable given that most other species investigated so far, including our closest relatives the chimpanzee and “man’sbest friend,”the dog, are not particularly sensitive to eye orientation and eye gaze, von Bayern said. Rather, she continued, chimps and dogs seem to rely on other cues such as head or body orientation in determining the looking direction of others and do not appear to appreciate the eyes as the visual organs. The results suggest that birds may deserve more respect for their mental abilities.
21. A hand-raised jackdaw hesitates to take a preferred food when the feeder_______.
A. is looking away from the food
C. is looking at the food B. holds the food in his hand D. is unfamiliar to the bird
D. directing one’seyes towards the food
22. According to the researchers, jackdaws can notice human eye orientation probably because ______.
A. 1ike humans, they also use eyes to communicate
B. they are far more intelligent than other birds
C. they are mostly hand-raised by humans
D. their eyes also have a dark pupil
23. Why does the author refer to chimpanzees and dogs?
A. To suggest that they are much better at interpreting gaze alternation.
B. To illustrate how unique jackdaws are in being able to notice gaze orientation.
C. To show that they communicate more frequently with humans than jackdaws.
D. To make clear that they rely on other means in determining people’sintention.
24. What does the research finding suggest?
A. Not all jackdaws are good at attending to human gaze.
B. We may have underestimated jackdaws’mental abilities.
C. We know embarrassingly less about birds than we assume.
D. The closer we communicate with animals, the better we understand them.
B
When children learn to play a musical instrument, they strengthen a range of auditory skills. Recent studies suggest that these benefits extend all through life, at least for those who continue to be engaged-with music.
But a study published last month is the first to show that music lessons in childhood may lead to changes in the brain that years after the lesson stop.
Researchers at Northwestern University recorded the auditory brainstem responses of college students —that is to say, their electrical brain waves —inresponse to complex sounds. The group of students who reported musical training in childhood had more strong responses —their brains were better able to pick out essential elements, like p itch, in the complex sounds when they were tested. And this was true even if the lessons had ended years ago.
Indeed, scientists are puzzling out the connections between musical training in childhood and
language-based learning —for instance, reading. Learning to play an instrument may give some unexpected benefits, recent studies suggest.
We aren't talking here about the "Mozart effect", the claim that listening to classical music can improve people's performance on tests. Instead, these are studies of the effects of active engagement and discipline. This kind of musical training improves the brain's ability to discern the components of sound —the pitch, the timing and the timbre.
Indeed, almost everyone who qualifies as having truly absolute pitch turns out to have had musical training in childhood.
There's a fascination —and even a certain heady delight —in learning what the brain can do, and in drawing out the many effects of the combination of stimulation, application, practice and auditory exercise that musical education provides. But the researchers all caution that there is no one best way to apply these findings.
“Wewant music to be recognized for what it can be in a person's life , not necessarily, ' oh, we want you to have better cognitive skills, so we're going to put you in music,''' Dr. dark said. "Music is great, music is fantastic, music is social —let them enjoy it for what it really is. "
25. The underlined word "persist" in the second paragraph means ____.
A. refuse to stop
C. start to flow B. continue to exist D. begin to rise
26. Researchers at Northwestern University believe that musical training in childhood can help students to ____.
A. become smarter persons
C. select their majors B. remember complex sounds D. forget their tests
27. In the last paragraph, Dr. Clark expresses his idea that ____.
A. we often forget music in our life
C. we must be addicted to music
28. The best title for this passage is ____.
A. Learning Music Is a Must in One' Life
B. Children Should Learn to Play a Musical Instrument
C. Early Music Lessons Have Longtime Benefits
B. we often put music aside D. we need music in our life
D. A Passage About the "Mozart effect" in School

The United States is a country made up of many different races. But many of them still talk about where their ancestors came from. It is something they are proud of.

to keep their identity. Of course they are not the only ones who have done so. The Japanese have their Little Tokyo in Los Angeles and the Chinese a China Town in New York.

Their towns are like something from the 9th century. discriminated Although some groups have kept themselves separate and others have been against, all groups have helped make the United States a great country. There is no group that as not helped in some way. And there is no group that can say they have done the most to take it a great country.
A good example is the American project that let a man walk on the moon
was a scientist from Germany who was most responsible for doing that. It is certain that in the future the United States will still need the help of people from all racial groups to remain a great country.

A
The young boy saw me, or rather, he saw the car and quickly ran up to me, eager to sell his Hunches （串）of bananas and bags of peanuts. Though he appeared to be about twelve, he seemed to have already known the bitterness of life. “Banana300naira. Peanuts 200naira.”
He said in a low voice. I bargained him down to 200totals for the fruit and nuts. When he agreed, I handed him a 500naira bill. He didn't have change, so I told him not to worry.
He said thanks and smiled a row of perfect teeth.
When, two weeks later, I saw the boy again, I was more aware of my position in a society where it's not that uncommon to see a little boy who should be in school standing on the corner selling fruit in the burning sun. My parents had raised me to be aware of the advantage we had been afforded and the responsibility it brought to us.
I pulled over and rolled down my window. He had a bunch of bananas and a bag of peanuts ready. I waved them away. “What'sup?”I asked him. “I…I don't have money to buy books for school.”I reached into my pocket and handed him two fresh 500naira bills.
“Willthis help?”I asked. He looked around nervously before taking the money. One thousand naira was a lot of money to someone whose family probably made about 5,000naira or less each year. “Thankyou, sir,”he said. “Thankyou very much!”
When driving home, I wondered if my little friend actually used the money for schoolbooks. What if he's a swindler （骗子）? And then I wondered why I did it. Did I do it to make myself feel better? Was I using him? Later, I realized that I didn't know his name or the least bit about him, nor did I think to ask.
Over the next six months, I was busy working in a news agency in northern Nigeria. Sometime after I returned, I went out for a drive. When I was about to pull over, the boy suddenly appeared by my window with a big smile ready on his face.
“Oh,gosh! Long time.”
“Areyou in school now?”I asked.
He nodded.
“That'sgood,”I said .A silence fell as we looked at each other, and then I realized what he wanted. “Here,”I held out a 500naira bill. “Takethis.”He shook his head and stepped back as if hurt. “What'swrong?”I asked. “It'sa gift.”
He shook his head again and brought his hand from behind his back. His face shone with sweat. He dropped a bunch of bananas and a bag of peanuts in the front seat before he said, “Ihave been waiting to give these to you.”
31. What was the author's first impression of the boy?
A. He seemed to be poor and greedy.
C. He seemed younger than his age B. He seemed to have suffered a lot. D. He seemed good at bargaining.
32. The second time the author met the boy, the boy _____.
A. told him his purpose of selling fruit and nuts
B. wanted to express his thanks
C. asked him for money for his schoolbooks
D. tried to take advantage of him
33. Why did the author give his money to the boy?
A. Because he had enough money to do that.
B. Because he had learned to help others since childhood.
C. Because he held a higher position in the society.
D. Because he had been asked by the news agency to do so.
34. Which of the following best describes the boy?
A. Brave and polite.
C. Honest and thankful. B. Kind and smart. D. Shy and nervous.
B
On a hill 600feet above the surrounding land, we watch the lines of rain move across the scene, the moon rise over the hills, and the stars appear in the sky. The views invite a long look from a comfortable chair in front of the wooden house.
Every window in our wooden house has a view, and the forest and lakes seldom look the same as the hour before. Each look reminds us where we are.
There is space for our three boys to play outside, to shoot arrows, collect tree seeds, build earth houses and climb trees.
Our kids have learned the names of the trees, and with the names have come familiarity and appreciation. As they tell all who show even a passing interest, maple （枫树）makes the best fighting sticks and white pines are the best climbing trees.
The air is clean and fresh. The water from the well has a pleasant taste, and it is perhaps the healthiest water our kids will ever drink. Though they have one glass a day of juice and the rest is water, they never say anything against that.
We watch the maples turn every shade of yellow and red in the fall and note the poplars’（杨树）putting out the first green leaves of spring. The rainbow smelt fills the local steam as the ice gradually disappears, and the wood frogs start to sing in pools after being frozen for the winter. A family of birds rules our skies and flies over the lake.
35. What can be learned from Paragraph 2?
A. The scenes are colorful and changeable.
B. There are many windows in the wooden house.
C. The views remind us that we are in a wooden house.
D. The lakes outside the windows are quite different in color.
36. By mentioning the names of the trees, the author aims to show that ______.
A. the kids like playing in trees
B. the kids are very familiar with trees
C. the kids have learned much knowledge
D. the kids find trees useful learning tools
37. What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean?
A. The change of seasons is easily felt.
B. The seasons make the scenes change.
C. The weather often changes in the forest.
D. The door is a good position to enjoy changing seasons.
38. What is the main purpose of the author writing the text?
A. To describe the beauty of the scene around the house.
B. To introduce her children’shappy life in the forest.
C. To show that living in the forest is healthful.
D. To share the joy of living in the nature.

We all know that people sometimes change their behavior when someone is looking their way. Now, a new study reported online on April 2nd in Current Biology shows that jackdaws —birdsrelated to crows with eyes that appear similar to human eyes —can do the same. “Jackdawsseem to recognize the eye’srole in visual perception, or at the very least they are extremely sensitive to the way that human eyes are oriented,”said Auguste von Bayern, formerly of the University of Cambridge and now at the University of Oxford.
When presented with a preferred food, hand-raised jackdaws took significantly longer to retrieve the reward when a person was directing his eyes towards the food than when he was looking away, according to the research team led by Nathan Emery of the University of Cambridge. The birds hesitated only when the person in question was unfamiliar and thus potentially threatening.
In addition, the birds were able to interpret human communicative gestures, such as gaze alternation and pointing to help them find hidden food, they found. The birds were unsuccessful in using static cues, including eye gaze or head orientation, in that context.
Unlike most birds, jackdaws’eyes have a dark pupil surrounded by a silvery white iris. The researchers said they believe jackdaws are probably sensitive to human eyes because, as in humans, eyes are an important means of communication for them. The hand-raised birds examined in the study may be even better than wild jackdaws at attending to human gaze and responding to the gestures of the people who have raised them.
The findings are particularly notable given that most other species investigated so far, including our closest relatives the chimpanzee and “man’sbest friend,”the dog, are not particularly sensitive to eye orientation and eye gaze, von Bayern said. Rather, she continued, chimps and dogs seem to rely on other cues such as head or body orientation in determining the looking direction of others and do not appear to appreciate the eyes as the visual organs. The results suggest that birds may deserve more respect for their mental abilities.
21. A hand-raised jackdaw hesitates to take a preferred food when the feeder_______.
A. is looking away from the food
C. is looking at the food B. holds the food in his hand D. is unfamiliar to the bird
D. directing one’seyes towards the food
22. According to the researchers, jackdaws can notice human eye orientation probably because ______.
A. 1ike humans, they also use eyes to communicate
B. they are far more intelligent than other birds
C. they are mostly hand-raised by humans
D. their eyes also have a dark pupil
23. Why does the author refer to chimpanzees and dogs?
A. To suggest that they are much better at interpreting gaze alternation.
B. To illustrate how unique jackdaws are in being able to notice gaze orientation.
C. To show that they communicate more frequently with humans than jackdaws.
D. To make clear that they rely on other means in determining people’sintention.
24. What does the research finding suggest?
A. Not all jackdaws are good at attending to human gaze.
B. We may have underestimated jackdaws’mental abilities.
C. We know embarrassingly less about birds than we assume.
D. The closer we communicate with animals, the better we understand them.

When children learn to play a musical instrument, they strengthen a range of auditory skills. Recent studies suggest that these benefits extend all through life, at least for those who continue to be engaged-with music.
But a study published last month is the first to show that music lessons in childhood may lead to changes in the brain that years after the lesson stop.
Researchers at Northwestern University recorded the auditory brainstem responses of college students —that is to say, their electrical brain waves —inresponse to complex sounds. The group of students who reported musical training in childhood had more strong responses —their brains were better able to pick out essential elements, like p itch, in the complex sounds when they were tested. And this was true even if the lessons had ended years ago.
Indeed, scientists are puzzling out the connections between musical training in childhood and
language-based learning —for instance, reading. Learning to play an instrument may give some unexpected benefits, recent studies suggest.
We aren't talking here about the "Mozart effect", the claim that listening to classical music can improve people's performance on tests. Instead, these are studies of the effects of active engagement and discipline. This kind of musical training improves the brain's ability to discern the components of sound —the pitch, the timing and the timbre.
Indeed, almost everyone who qualifies as having truly absolute pitch turns out to have had musical training in childhood.
There's a fascination —and even a certain heady delight —in learning what the brain can do, and in drawing out the many effects of the combination of stimulation, application, practice and auditory exercise that musical education provides. But the researchers all caution that there is no one best way to apply these findings.
“Wewant music to be recognized for what it can be in a person's life , not necessarily, ' oh, we want you to have better cognitive skills, so we're going to put you in music,''' Dr. dark said. "Music is great, music is fantastic, music is social —let them enjoy it for what it really is. "
25. The underlined word "persist" in the second paragraph means ____.
A. refuse to stop
C. start to flow B. continue to exist D. begin to rise
26. Researchers at Northwestern University believe that musical training in childhood can help students to ____.
A. become smarter persons
C. select their majors B. remember complex sounds D. forget their tests
27. In the last paragraph, Dr. Clark expresses his idea that ____.
A. we often forget music in our life
C. we must be addicted to music
28. The best title for this passage is ____.
A. Learning Music Is a Must in One' Life
B. Children Should Learn to Play a Musical Instrument
C. Early Music Lessons Have Longtime Benefits
B. we often put music aside D. we need music in our life
D. A Passage About the "Mozart effect" in School

The United States is a country made up of many different races. But many of them still talk about where their ancestors came from. It is something they are proud of.
The original Americans, of course were the Indians. The so-caned white men who then came were mostly from England. But many came from other countries like Germany and France.
groups came to
Irish and Italians. One problem the United States has always had is discrimination. As new the United States they found they were discriminated against. First it was the Later it was the blacks. Almost every group has been able to finally escape this discrimination.The only immigrants who have not are the blacks. Surprisingly enough the worst discrimination
today is shown towards the Indians. One reason the Indians are discriminated against is that they have tried so hard
to keep their identity. Of course they are not the only ones who have done so. The Japanese have their Little Tokyo in Los Angeles and the Chinese a China Town in New York. The Dutch settlement Pennsylvania also stays separate from other people. Their towns are like something from the 9th century. discriminated Although some groups have kept themselves separate and others have been against, all groups have helped make the United States a great country. There is no group that as not helped in some way. And there is no group that can say they have done the most to take it a great country.
A good example is the American project that let a man walk on the moon
was a scientist from Germany who was most responsible for doing that. It is certain that in the future the United States will still need the help of people from all racial groups to remain a great country.

The young boy saw me, or rather, he saw the car and quickly ran up to me, eager to sell his Hunches （串）of bananas and bags of peanuts. Though he appeared to be about twelve, he seemed to have already known the bitterness of life. “Banana300naira. Peanuts 200naira.”
He said in a low voice. I bargained him down to 200totals for the fruit and nuts. When he agreed, I handed him a 500naira bill. He didn't have change, so I told him not to worry.
He said thanks and smiled a row of perfect teeth.
When, two weeks later, I saw the boy again, I was more aware of my position in a society where it's not that uncommon to see a little boy who should be in school standing on the corner selling fruit in the burning sun. My parents had raised me to be aware of the advantage we had been afforded and the responsibility it brought to us.
I pulled over and rolled down my window. He had a bunch of bananas and a bag of peanuts ready. I waved them away. “What'sup?”I asked him. “I…I don't have money to buy books for school.”I reached into my pocket and handed him two fresh 500naira bills.
“Willthis help?”I asked. He looked around nervously before taking the money. One thousand naira was a lot of money to someone whose family probably made about 5,000naira or less each year. “Thankyou, sir,”he said. “Thankyou very much!”
When driving home, I wondered if my little friend actually used the money for schoolbooks. What if he's a swindler （骗子）? And then I wondered why I did it. Did I do it to make myself feel better? Was I using him? Later, I realized that I didn't know his name or the least bit about him, nor did I think to ask.
Over the next six months, I was busy working in a news agency in northern Nigeria. Sometime after I returned, I went out for a drive. When I was about to pull over, the boy suddenly appeared by my window with a big smile ready on his face.
“Oh,gosh! Long time.”
“Areyou in school now?”I asked.
He nodded.
“That'sgood,”I said .A silence fell as we looked at each other, and then I realized what he wanted. “Here,”I held out a 500naira bill. “Takethis.”He shook his head and stepped back as if hurt. “What'swrong?”I asked. “It'sa gift.”
He shook his head again and brought his hand from behind his back. His face shone with sweat. He dropped a bunch of bananas and a bag of peanuts in the front seat before he said, “Ihave been waiting to give these to you.”
31. What was the author's first impression of the boy?
A. He seemed to be poor and greedy.
C. He seemed younger than his age B. He seemed to have suffered a lot. D. He seemed good at bargaining.
32. The second time the author met the boy, the boy _____.
A. told him his purpose of selling fruit and nuts
B. wanted to express his thanks
C. asked him for money for his schoolbooks
D. tried to take advantage of him
33. Why did the author give his money to the boy?
A. Because he had enough money to do that.
B. Because he had learned to help others since childhood.
C. Because he held a higher position in the society.
D. Because he had been asked by the news agency to do so.
34. Which of the following best describes the boy?
A. Brave and polite.
C. Honest and thankful. B. Kind and smart. D. Shy and nervous.

On a hill 600feet above the surrounding land, we watch the lines of rain move across the scene, the moon rise over the hills, and the stars appear in the sky. The views invite a long look from a comfortable chair in front of the wooden house.
Every window in our wooden house has a view, and the forest and lakes seldom look the same as the hour before. Each look reminds us where we are.
There is space for our three boys to play outside, to shoot arrows, collect tree seeds, build earth houses and climb trees.
Our kids have learned the names of the trees, and with the names have come familiarity and appreciation. As they tell all who show even a passing interest, maple （枫树）makes the best fighting sticks and white pines are the best climbing trees.
The air is clean and fresh. The water from the well has a pleasant taste, and it is perhaps the healthiest water our kids will ever drink. Though they have one glass a day of juice and the rest is water, they never say anything against that.
We watch the maples turn every shade of yellow and red in the fall and note the poplars’（杨树）putting out the first green leaves of spring. The rainbow smelt fills the local steam as the ice gradually disappears, and the wood frogs start to sing in pools after being frozen for the winter. A family of birds rules our skies and flies over the lake.
35. What can be learned from Paragraph 2?
A. The scenes are colorful and changeable.
B. There are many windows in the wooden house.
C. The views remind us that we are in a wooden house.
D. The lakes outside the windows are quite different in color.
36. By mentioning the names of the trees, the author aims to show that ______.
A. the kids like playing in trees
B. the kids are very familiar with trees
C. the kids have learned much knowledge
D. the kids find trees useful learning tools
37. What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean?
A. The change of seasons is easily felt.
B. The seasons make the scenes change.
C. The weather often changes in the forest.
D. The door is a good position to enjoy changing seasons.
38. What is the main purpose of the author writing the text?
A. To describe the beauty of the scene around the house.
B. To introduce her children’shappy life in the forest.
C. To show that living in the forest is healthful.
D. To share the joy of living in the nature.
