A little boy named Tyler was walking down the street. His schoolbag was heavy and his feet were slow. He kept on going, stopping now and then only to pick up an empty can or a piece of paper. His heart felt as heavy as his schoolbag when he opened the door to his house and went inside.His mother was in the kitchen and making supper. She smiled and said, “Tyler, what happened? Is everything okay? “Nothing is Okay, Mum. Nothing will ever be okay again.”He stood in the middle of the kitchen. “It seems that you have had a bad day, Tyler. Is there anything I can do to help?”“That’s just the thing, Mum. We can’t help. There’s nothing we can do.”He sat down at the table and put his head in his hands. His mother sat down and waited for a moment until he began to speak again. “Today, the teacher talked about the Earth Day. I’m worried about our environment.” His mother thought for a minute and said, “It seems that you are very concerned about it, but did you know that you can do a lot to protect the environment? For example, you can take part in the activities on Tree-Planting Day. You can be an environmental volunteer. Don’t you worry so much?”Tyler smiled after hearing what his mother said.( )36.

The patron came to see his picture, “It must be finished by now. Today I will see it!” he shouted.The artist said, “That’s fine.” And he pulled aside the 20-foot curtain.Bartoli stood for a minute.

He showed the first girl a picture for five seconds and then hid it.“This is a suspect. How would you find him?”The first girl said, “That’s easy. He only has one eye!” He said, “Well…,uh…,that’s because the picture shows the side of his face.”Then he showed the picture to the second girl and asked her the same question. The second girl laughed and said, “Ha! He’d be really easy to catch because he only has one ear!”He said angrily, “What’s the matter with you two? Of course, you can only see one eye and one ear because it’s a picture of his side!”He felt disappointed. At last, he showed it to the third girl. The girl looked at the picture carefully for a moment and said, “Hmm, the suspect wears a contact lense.”He was surprised because he really didn’t know himself whether the suspect wore contact lenses or not. He went to the office, checked the suspect’s file in his computer, and came back with a smile on his face. “Wow! I can’t believe it. It’s TRUE! The suspect does wear contact lenses. Good work!

In a few years you may be able to do this. Scientists are trying to make a type of tape that may let humans climb walls. These scientists say that people will be able to put on tape-covered gloves and socks and then hang upside down!Scientists got the idea for the tape by studying small lizards called geckos. Geckos can stick to any surface. They can even hang upside down by a toe. For a long time scientists did not know how geckos could do these things.Some people surmised that geckos had tiny suction cups on their feet. But scientists learned something different. Scientists learned that the gecko’s feet are sticky because of millions of tiny hairs called setae. These hairs are on the gecko’s toes. Each hair acts like a magnet when the gecko is walking.Scientists studied the tiny hairs of the gecko foot. Then the scientists made a new kind of tape. They did this by making very small plastic hairs. They stuck the hair to a flat surface. This tape is both sticky and strong. But the tape becomes less sticky after a while. The tape also costs a lot to make.Until scientists find a better way to make the tape, it is not likely to be used by many people.Scientists think that people will be able to use gecko tape in many ways. It could be used to make tires that grip had roads and robots that can climb walls. It might also be used to hold skin together after surgery.Scientists are very excited about how this tape can be used. Gecko tape may become another invention that uses ideas from nature to help improve people’s lives.( )66. Why does the author talk about Spider-man in paragraph 12?A. To help the reader understand how sticky the tape is.B. To explain to the reader how the scientists think.C. To get the reader to try something new.D.

Scientists got the idea for the tape by studying small lizards called geckosD. Scientists think that people will be able to use gecko tape in many ways.( )68.

Has hairs on its toes that act like a magnet.C. Has helped scientists make a new type of tape.D. Has something that make scientist satisfied.( )70.

Reading to the unborn child can have a good effect even though the unborn child is, of course, unable to understand the words. The voice of the mother and the father can have acalming effect on the baby.As the child grows and becomes able to understand more, reading to the child becomes even more important. Recent research by the University of Nebraska—Lincoln points out that, generally, the younger the age at which a child’s parents begin to read to him, or her, the faster that child will develop thinking skills. It is helpful for the child to be able to speak and read themselves.Of course, that’s not to say parents should start reciting Shakespeare’s works to one-year-old child! It is just as important to choose suitable reading materials as it is to read at all.For the first twelve months of baby’s life, it is impossible for the child to make any real connection between the spoken and written word. During this period, the child is more likely to enjoy books with lots of bright colors and pictures. Between the ages of 1 and 2, as the child learns to talk, they will begin to collect different sound groups. Books with lots of repetition and rhyming are therefore appropriate. From the age of 2 the child should be able to understand and appreciate more text and simple stories. Parents can show their children books that they enjoy. ( )71. From the passage we can know that reading to the unborn child____.A. is not an easy thingB. can have a good effectC. may take a lot of timeD. can make the child happy( )72. For the first twelve months babies, what kind of books are they likely to enjoy?A. Books with long stories.B. Books with simple stories.C. Books with lots of bright colors and rhyming.D. Books with lots of repetition and rhyming.( )73. What does the underlined word “appropriate” mean in Chinese?A. 方便的B. 轻松的C. 古怪的D.适合的( )74. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Parents just need to read to their children after they are born.B. Reciting shakespeare’s works to one-year-old children is not necessary.C. The unborn child is able to understand the words that his/her parents read.D. When the child is able to understand, reading to the child becomes less important. ( )75. The best title for this passage is ____.A. Early Reading for childrenB. How to Read for the Parents.C. How to Help Children with Reading.D. Children Who Enjoy Reading.BCDBA。
