Light travels at a speed which is about a million times faster than the speed of sound. In one second, light travels about 300,000km, but sound travels only 344m. You can get some idea of this difference by watching the start of a race. If you stand some distance away from the starter, you can see smoke come from his gun before the sound reaches your ears. This great speed of light produces some strange facts. Sunlight takes about 8 minutes to reach us. If you look at the light of the moon tonight, remember that the light rays(光线)left the moon 1.3 seconds before they reached you. The nearest star is so far away that the light which you can see from it tonight started to travel towards you four years ago at a speed of nearly 2 million km per minute. In some cases the light from one of tonight’s stars started on its journey to you before you were born.
Thus, if we want to be honest, we cannot say “ The stars are shining tonight.” We have to say, “ The stars look pretty. They were shining four years ago but their light has only just reached Earth.”
小题1: Light speed is ________ than sound speed.
A.millions times fasterB.a million times slower
C.about millions of times fasterD.about a million times faster
小题2:If you stand 200 meters away from a man who is firing a gun to start a race, you will find out that _____.
A.you can hear the gun before you see the smoke.
B.sound does not travel as fast as light.
C.the sound of the gun will reach you before the man fires his gun.
D.sound travels about a million times faster than light.
小题3:What does “ it” refer to?
A.moon lightB.light raysC.the nearest starD.the moon
小题4:The scientific way of saying “ The stars are shining tonight” should be________.
A.the stars have been shining all the time.
B.the stars seen tonight will be shining four years later.
C.the stars were shining long ago but are seen tonight.
D.the starlight seen today could be seen four years ago.

The saying that children don’t like reading any more has been proved untrue. A new study finds that 75 percent of kids between five and 17 say that although they love technology, they still want to read books.
The Kids & Family Reading Report also says that 62 percent of kids prefer reading printed books rather than those on a computer.At the same time, those who search an author’s website or use the Internet to find books by a particular author, are more likely to read books for fun every day.
The study also once again proves that the time kids spend reading books for fun decreases after the age of eight and continues to drop through the teen years.The report is a follow-up to a 2006 study.But this time the focus is on the role of technology and when kids’ interest in reading starts to drop.
“Despite the fact that after the age of eight more children go online daily than read for fun daily, high frequency Internet users are more likely to read books for fun every day,” says Heather Carter, a writer of the report.
One in four kids between five and 17 say they read books for fun every day and more than half of kids say they read books for fun at least two to three times a week.One of the key reasons kids say they don’t read more often is that they have trouble finding books they like - a requirement that parents underestimate(低估).
The study also finds that parents have a strong influence on kids’ reading, but only about half of all parents begin reading to their kids before their first birthday.The percent of children who are read to every day drops from 38 percent among five-to eight-year-olds to 23 percent among nine-to 11-year-olds - exactly the same time that kids’ daily reading for fun starts to drop.
“Parents’ engagement in their child’s reading from birth all the way through the teen years can have a great influence on how often their children read and how much they enjoy reading,” adds Carter.

If you want to improve your child’s results at school, you could do a lot worse than ensuring that they do plenty of exercise. Scientists have already shown that physical activity can make you brainier. But a team in America has used scans to show that an important part of the brain actually grows in children who are fit. These youngsters tend to be more intelligent and have better memories than those who are inactive.
  Scientists also found that one of the most important parts of their brains was 12 percent larger than those of unfit children. They believe that encouraging children to take exercise from a very young age could help them do better at school later. Researchers from the University of Illinois, in the U.S., studied the brains of 49 children aged nine and ten using a magnetic resonance imaging scan (核磁共振摄影扫描), a technique which provides very detailed pictures of organs and tissues in the body.
  They also tested the fitness levels of the children by making them run on a treadmill (跑步机). The scientists found that the hippocampus, a part of the brain responsible for memory and learning, was around 12 percent larger in the fitter children.
  Professor Art Kramer, who led the study published in the journal Brain Research, said the findings had important implications for encouraging individuals to take part in sport from a young age. “We knew that experience and environmental factors and socioeconomic status all impact brain development,” he said. “If you get some terrible genes from your parents, you can’t really fix that, and it’s not easy to do something about your economic status. But here’s something that we can do something about.”
小题1: If you want to improve your children’s result in school, ____________.
A.it is worse to ensure that they do plenty of exercise
B.you can have their brain scanned
C.it could be better to make sure that they do a lot of exercise
D.you can do a lot except ensuring that they do exercise
小题2: According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true?
A.The fitness level of the children is linked to their intelligence.
B.Children who have a larger hippocampus will probably have better memories.
C.You can do something about the genes from your parents.
D.Unhealthy children will probably have a smaller hippocampus than others.
小题3:All the following factors that have some influence on one’s brain are mentioned EXCEPT ____________.
A.genetic factorB.economic statusC.physical fitnessD.economic development

The German shepherd runs off and noses around in the grass of Kenya’s Laikipia Plateau. “OK, Oakley,” the dog’s handler orders, “Find it!”
Oakley sniffs (嗅) until he comes to a bush, then stops, sits, and looks up at his handler. She bends to see what he has found: the waste of an endangered African wild dog. “Good dog!” she praises. The handler pulls a tennis ball from her pocket. Oakley jumps for his reward.
“He doesn’t actually want the waste,” says Aimee Hurt, a founding member of the U.S.-based group Working Dogs for Conservation. Hurt is in Kenya to train both Oakley and his handler. “He finds it so he can play with his ball. We’re the ones who want the waste.”
Detection dogs are sometimes taught to locate actual animals. Black-footed ferrets (雪貂) have been studied with their help. But more often the dogs learn to locate the waste of creatures such as bears, wolves and mountain lions.
What the dogs find provides scientists with data about a species. Scientists can use the DNA collected from animal waste to identify individuals, sex, and population sizes — all without ever seeing the animal itself. “It can take years to gather this kind of information if you have to trap animals,” Hurt explains.
Waste analysis might make a huge difference when wild species are accused of attacking domestic livestock (家畜). Hurt says, “A good detection dog will find the waste so we can see what the animal is actually eating.” This may help reduce problems between people and wildlife.
小题1: The underlined word “She” in Paragraph 2 refers to  “_____”.
A.the German shepherd
B.an African wild dog
C.Aimee Hurt
D.the handler
小题2: Oakley is interested in finding the waste because _____.
A.he wants to study endangered animals
B.he can get a tennis ball to play with
C.he wants to eat it
D.he wants to play with it
小题3:Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.Trapping animals is not difficult.
B.People are making efforts to protect the environment.
C.Detection dogs attack domestic livestock frequently.
D.Collecting animal waste is a good way to gather information.
小题4:What is the main idea of the passage?
A.Detection dogs can help scientists study wildlife.
B.Detection dogs can defend wildlife.
C.Detection dogs can help the police catch the criminals.
D.Detection dogs can help local people defend domestic livestock.

Researchers who helped discover a new species of Mexican butterfly are offering to sell the naming rights to raise money to fund more research. Co-discoverer Andrew Warren is hoping to raise at least $50,000 by auctioning(拍卖) off the rights to name the 4-inch “owl eye” butterfly, which lives in Sonora, a Mexican state bordering Arizona.
“That would support at least two years of research for our team down in Mexico,” Warren said. “Money goes a long way down here in Mexico.”
According to the scientific tradition, discoverers of a new species have the say in naming it. In recent years, some discoverers have auctioned off their naming rights to raise money.
Warren said the amount being sought for the butterfly is not out of the question, noting that naming rights for a new monkey species brought in $650,000 two years ago. A group of 10 new fish species that went on the naming auction block at the same time earlier this year brought in a total of $2 million.
The butterfly discovered by Warren and researcher George Austin ranges as far north as Mexico.
The butterfly was actually in a collection, misidentified as an example of another new species, at the McGuire Center for Lepidoptera and Biodiversity at the Florida Museum of National History in Gainesville, said Warren. They soon began the hard process of determining that it was indeed a “new” model of butterfly.
After checking photos and comparing it with other known species, they determined it was a separate species.
小题1:Where did the researchers discover the new species of butterflies?
A.In Sonora.B.In Mexico state.
C.In a place in US.D.Near the US-Mexico border.
小题2: Why will the researchers sell the naming rights of the butterfly?
A.To raise money for wildlife protection.
B.To raise money for more research.
C.To cause people’s attention to the new discovery.
D.To cover the cost of the research.
小题3:When the butterfly was first discovered, people thought ______.
A.it was a new species at once
B.it wasn’t a species of American butterfly
C.it belonged to the monarch branches
D.it belonged to a new species
小题4: We can infer from the passage that ______.
A.the new species of butterfly live both in the US and Mexico
B.it took the researchers a lot of efforts to determine the new species of butterfly
C.the researchers are not sure whether they can get the money they want from the auction
D.it is the first time that the new species of butterfly has been found
