Have you ever seen or used a saw, or “ju” in Chinese Do you know who invented it The inventor was Lu Ban. He was born in the state of Lu in ancient China more than 2,500 years ago. That is where Qufu lies in the east of Jining.
Lu Ban was the greatest carpenter (木匠) in his time. Once the king ordered him and his team to build a palace
in a very short time. They would be punished if they missed the deadline(最后期限). They had only axes, or fuzi in Chinese, to cut the trees and prepare the wood for the palace, so work was very slow.
One day Lu Ban rushed up the hill to see how things were going. Suddenly the sharp teeth of a leaf cut his hand. Then a bright idea came into his head. Soon he made a tool with teeth along the side of a long iron bar (条状物). With this tool, work became much faster, and they completed the work before the deadline.
That is how the saw was invented.
Lu Ban invented many other useful tools for carpenters and interesting toys f children. The Wooden Bird, for example, could stay in the air for three days. That’s why he is regarded as the God of Carpentry.
23. In which picture can you see a saw
A. B. C. D.

A. Use only axes. B. Build a palace quickly.
C. Cut the trees. D. Prepare the wood.

A. How Lu Ban’s hand was hurt. B. Why Lu Ban invented the saw.
C. How the saw was invented. D. How the palace was completed.

Sometimes when the rain falls hard and fast on you, it might hurt a little. But what happens when it hits a mosquito (蚊子)
In 2012, David Hu, a scientist at Georgia Tech, became interested in this problem and decided to do a research. He used a high-speed camera so that he could watch the mosquitoes in very slow motion and find out what they’re doing when they’re out in the rain.
What he found is that when a raindrop falls on a mosquito, it’s like when a bus hits a person. Besides, the little insect (昆虫) is hit by a raindrop about once every 20 seconds. So why don’t we see many dead mosquitoes after it rains
A mosquito is as big as a raindrop, but it is much lighter —0.002g only. This saves its life in raindrop hits. Because the mosquito is so light, when it is hit by a raindrop, it won’t experience a force that is strong enough to kill
it.
The study also found that when a mosquito is hit by a raindrop, the insect is pushed by the raindrop and falls together with it. But the mosquito doesn’t get wet easily because it is covered with hairs which keep off water. After dropping about 6 cm, it will roll off the raindrop and fly away.
However, this trick isn’t always successful. If the mosquito flies too low when it is hit by the raindrop, it won’t have time to fly off. Then it will hit the ground and meet its death.
27. What does the underlined word “motion” mean
A. Time. B. Movie. C. Step. D. Movement.
28. What protect mosquitoes in the rain
A. Their mouths and their noses. B. Their eyes and their ears.
D. Their body weight and their hairs. C. Their legs and their wings.
9. When is it dangerous for a mosquito in the rain
A. When it flies too close to the ground.
B. When the rain falls too hard and too fast.
C. When it is hit by raindrops too many times.
D. When it drops for more than 6 cm in the rain.
30. Which of the following is a proper title for the passage
A. How Raindrops Hurt Mosquitoes B. When Mosquitoes Are in Danger
C. Why Mosquitoes Aren’t Hurt in Rain D. When Mosquitoes Meet Their Death
