You probably know you should say “please” and “thank you” at restaurants. You probably know the rules of a library. You know you should respect and be nice to your classmates. But do you have music manners?
Keep It Down! You have to notice the volume of your music. You should not play your music so loud that everyone around you can hear it. Some people might even get angry. Usually, when you play the music loud on an MP3 player, other people can’t hear the words of the song. They just hear a loud sound. No one wants to listen to this. Very loud music can also be bad for your ears. So even if you are alone when listening to our MP3 players, you shouldn’t turn it up too high.
Take Them Off! You need to know when to turn your MP3 off and put it away. Libraries, and schools don’t allow MP3 players. There are other places, like museums, that don’t have rules, but it would be rude to have your MP3 player on. Sometimes, it doesn’t make sense to listen on your MP3 player at event. Why would you listen to music at a play, a movie or a sporting event? You would miss what is going on and others would wonder why you even came.
Take One Out! Once in a while it’s okay just to take out one earphone（耳機）and not the other. Imagine you are listening on your MP3 player when someone asks you the way. It would not be rude to take out one earphone, tell him the way, and put back the earphone and continue listening. You can also do this when you order food at a fast-food restaurant or when you answer the telephone and it’s not for you.
小題1:The underlined word “volume” in Paragraph Two probably means “_______”
A．the type of musicB．the amount of a sound
C．the length of a songD．the colour of an MP3 player
小題2:If we listen to our MP3 player at a play,  ________.

Honey from the African forest is not only a kind of natural sugar, it is also delicious. Most people, and many animals, like eating it. However, the only way for them to get that honey is to find a wild bees' nest and take the honey from it. Often, these nests are high up in trees, and it is difficult to find them. In parts of Africa, though, people and animals looking for honey have a strange and unexpected helper -- a little bird called a honey guide.
The honey guide does not actually like honey, but it does like the wax(蠟) in the beehives (蜂房). The little bird cannot reach this wax, which is deep inside the bees' nest. So, when it finds a suitable nest, it looks for someone to help it. The honey guide gives a loud cry that attracts the attention of both passing animals and people. Once it has their attention, it flies through the forest, waiting from time to time for the curious animal or person as it leads them tot he nest. When they finally arrive at the nest, the follower reaches in to get the delicious honey as the bird patiently waits and watches. Some of the honey, and the wax, always fall to the ground, and this is when the honey guide takes its share.
Scientists do not know why the honey guide likes eating the wax, but it is very determined (下決心) in its efforts to get it. The birds seem to be able to smell wax from a long distance away. They will quickly arrive whenever a beekeeper(養(yǎng)蜂者) is taking honey from his beehives, and will even enter churches when beeswax candles are being lit.
小題1: Why is it difficult to find a wild bees' nest?

There are many colors in nature. But do you know if a color has weight? I think you’ll say “no”. But I am afraid you are wrong. If you don’t believe, you may do a small experiment.
First, put two objects with the same weight into two boxes. Then cover the box. Third, wrap one box with a red piece of paper, the other with a white piece of paper. OK. Now hold the boxes with your hand one by one. It is certain that you will think the red one is a little heavier.
Why do you think so? A scientist found that different colors have different weight in a man’s mind. So he did many tests and at last he got the result. That is to say, every color has its own weight in our mind and their order is the same. The heaviest color is red, then blue, green, orange, yellow and white.
The scientist told us that colors also have smell. Can you smell the color? Of course not. Then why did the scientist say so? That is because every color stands for a kind of light with a certain wavelength. It reaches our brain through sense organs.
According to this discovery, scientists say that people accept the colors they like, and refuse the colors they hate. So your body and mind will be healthy by using the colors you like. Or you’ll be nervous or even get ill. For example, if you stay in a room with red windows, wallpapers and furniture for two hours, you’ll feel you have been there for four hours. But if the room is blue,  you’ll feel you have been there for only an hour. Another example, if a person walks out of a red room and into a blue room, his temperature will fall. That means our body temperature will change with different colors.
小題1:The purpose of the second paragraph is to tell us ___________.
A．a(chǎn) red box is heavier than a white one
B．a(chǎn) color has weight in one’s mind
C．white paper is lighter than red paper
D．you can know the weight of a color by holding it
小題2:Why did the scientist say colors have smell?
A．Because people can sense the light from colors.
B．Because we can smell colors with our nose.
C．Because every color has its own sweet smell.
D．Because every color can give off light of the same length.
小題3:It can be implied from the text that ___________.
A．colors have orders in weight
B．colors can change the weight of an object
C．people would stay longer in a room with red windows
D．colors can affect our mood and health
小題4:This passage is probably a ___________.
A．book reviewB．fiction novelC．fairy taleD．science report

In America, when people say ‘man’s best friend’, they don’t mean another person. Instead, they are talking about a lovely animal—a dog! These words show the friendship between people and animals. Dogs and other pets can give joy to people’s lives. Some people even leave all their money to their pets when they die!
Animals can help people, too. You can teach dogs to be the ‘eyes’ for blind (失明的) people or ‘ears’ for deaf (聾的) people. Scientists have found that pets help people live longer! They make people happier, too. Because of that, they bring animals into hospitals for ‘visits’.
Americans have ‘Be Kind to Animals Week’ in the first week of May. There are many pet shows during the week. Even if you don’t live in America, you can also show your love to animals. How? First think about how animals make your life richer (更豐富). If you have a pet, take more time this week to play with it. Remember to give it nice food. If you don’t have a pet, be kind to
animals around you. For example, if you see a street dog, don’t kick it. Just leave it alone, or make friends with it. If others around you do bad things to animals, try to stop them. As people, we must protect (保護) animals because they can’t speak for themselves.
