Conservationists believe it has completed an incredible journey for such a young bird — it is estimated to be around 10 months old. The most likely explanation for its appearance in New Zealand is the hunt for food. Experts said it may also have rested on an ice floe (浮冰) during its travels and was carried north for a great distance before it made a swim for dry land. Colin Miskelly, a curator of New Zealand Museum, said, “They can spend months at a time in the ocean and come ashore only to moult (脱毛,换毛)or rest.” Mr. Miskelly said the brave bird would have to find its way back south soon if it was going to survive. He said, “It is probably hot and thirsty and has been eating wet sand.” “It doesn’t realize that the sand isn’t going to melt inside it because they typically eat snow — their only liquid.”
New Zealand residents have been warned to give the bird a wide berth — it can inflict (予以) painful bites if threatened.
小题1:Which of the following is True of Paragraph 1?
| A．A young penguin found himself far from home during a voyage of moulting. |
| B．A creature’s astonishing journey was incredible in the north of the North Island. |
| C．A woman witnessed a 2 feet bird waddled in the children’s film while walking her dog. |
| D．A penguin came ashore on a beach thousands of miles away from its habitate. |
| A．the young bird has completed a pleasant journey of 4,000 thousand miles |
| B．the young bird’s appearance in New Zealand is due to its hunt for food and delay of returning |
| C．the young bird comes ashore in New Zealand only to moult or rest during its voyage |
| D．the young bird is certain to be over 10 months old when it appears on a beach |
| A．The penguin could spend months at a time in the ocean and came ashore only to have young ones. |
| B．The young bird might have slept on an ice floe and could not swim for dry land. |
| C．The young penguin didn’t realize the sand wasn’t going to melt inside it like snow it eats. |
| D．The brave bird would have to find its way back north soon if it was going to survive. |
| A．The residents should keep well away from it when they want to watch the young penguin. |
| B．Some people do not realize the danger of the young bird and they are expected to touch it. |
| C．New Zealand residents want to keep the young bird but it wants to leave the shore. |
| D．If the local people threatened the young bird, it would do harm to other birds nearby. . |
A child born December is more likely to become a dentist while someone whose birthday falls in January will tend to a debt collector, they found. A February birth appears to increase the chances of being an artist while March babies appear to go on to become pilots. Meanwhile, April and May are said to have a fairly even spread of professions, births in the summer months mean a much lower chance of becoming a high-earning football player, doctor or dentist.
The study was derived (推导出) by researchers who analyzed the birth months of people in 19 separate occupations using information from the last census, the Daily Mail reported. Although these trends may be difficult to explain, correlations (关联) between birth months and specific health problems have a scientific basis. Spring babies are at greater risks of illnesses including schizophrenia, Alzheimer’s disease, asthma and autism. They may also be less clever than classmates born in other parts of the year.
小题1:What is the main idea of this passage?
| A．The year when a baby is born may not be associated with the job he or she will end up with. |
| B．Researchers have found the birth month could affect both intelligence and length of life. |
| C．The birth time can give signs of future development of what professions people will start. |
| D．The study indicates there are correlations between birth months and some terrible risks. |
| A．A child born in December is more likely to become an artist while someone born in January will tend to be a dentist. |
| B．A February birth appears to have the possibilities of being an artist while March babies appear to become pilots. |
| C．Children born in April and May are said to have equally balanced chances in their future professions. |
| D．Births in the summer months mean they have few chances to earn a lot of money as a football player, doctor or dentist. |
| A．Some serious diseases from births of many children. |
| B．A lot of mental illnesses caused by giving birth to children. |
| C．The secret of births and healthy problems. |
| D．The relationship between birth months and certain health problems. |
Both were shaking and bleeding from what appeared to be severe burns, said Hakon Eikesdal, a photographer with the Norwegian daily Dagbladet. Kaukonen, about 40, was in hospital in stable condition Sunday, contest spokesman Ossi Arvela said. The event, which had over 130 participants from 15 countries, had been held since 1999. It will never be held again, Arvela said. A pint of water is added to the stove every 30 seconds and the last person to remain at the sauna is the winner. There was no prize other than “some small things” Arvela said. He declined to provide details. Arvela said Kaukonen — the defending world champion — had refused to leave the sauna despite getting sick. Sauna bathing is a popular past-time in Finland, which has an estimated 1.6 million saunas for a population of 5 million.
Temperatures are normally kept around 158 to 176 degrees (70~80 degrees Celsius). “I know this is very hard to understand to people outside Finland who are not familiar with the sauna habit,” Arvela said. “It is not so unusual to have 110 degrees in a sauna. A lot of competitors before have sat in higher temperatures than that.” Arvela said all rules in Saturday’s competition were followed and the temperatures and times were similar to those in previous years.

A middle-aged couple from California got to the Pacific Ocean after a 4,900- mile-cross-country walk, becoming the first to backpack the American Discovery Trail by walking．
Marcia and Ken started the travel across 13 states, through 14 national parks and 16 national forests from Delaware and finally reached their destination a day nearly eight months later.
“We are sad that a great adventure is over. Now we just go home and do housework” said the couple, who went through cities, desert, mountains and farmland before reaching the Pacific alone.
They overcame deep snow in the East, a quicksand in Utah, close lightning strikes in the Mid- west and strong desert sandstorms in the West while averaging 22 miles a day and taking only four days off．But they enjoyed the French history of St.Louis and the beauty of the Colorado Rockies. They particularly remember kindness of strangers they met along the way.
“Americans are truly warm-hearted and wonderful. We got to meet people that we would never meet in our daily living at home. It" s an amazing country.” Marcia said．

Taking children to school on time doesn’t have to be a battle against the clock. Here are some rules for you to follow.
Lay out children’s clean clothes the night before. Who wants to be looking through unsorted clothes for three pairs of matching socks at 8:00am? Just have the clothes you know they will wear and the food they like ready and waiting. It makes life easier when you can’t spare the time in the morning.
Allow time for yourself. Whether it’s a hot shower, a cup of coffee or five minutes’ peace, leave yourself enough time. This doesn’t include “Just five more minutes” in bed, which will often turn into oversleeping followed by mayhem.
Stick to a routine. Make sure your children know what you expect from them every morning and stick to that routine, whether it’s that they should be fully dressed before breakfast or that they should brush their teeth straight afterwards. My personal top tip for the easiest way to a pain-free morning is no TV the night before.
Keep calm. If the bus is late or you have forgotten where you parked the car, or if you are late, don’t get angry and blame the children. Every one has such a bad morning. But if your children are often late for school, it’s up to you to start a more organized morning routine.
