Jackson was walking home from school one afternoon when his untied shoelaces(鞋带) caught his foot. He almost fell. He put down his backpack and tied them.
Eva and Dave were riding down the other side of the street. Suddenly, Dave stopped and pointed.
“Whoa! Did you see that ” he asked. “Jackson just totally fell down there!”
“Oh, no! Is he okay ” asked Eva.
“It looks like he hurt his knee.”
Just as they were still talking about this, Mandy caught up with them. “What are you guys talking about ” she asked.
“Jackson just fell and hurt his knee,” said Eva.
“Was he bleeding(流血) ” asked Mandy.
The story began to spread. Within an hour, Kevin heard the whole story. “Jackson got hit by a car on his way home. There was blood everywhere, and he was sent to hospital.
That night, Oliver got more information. “______ He doesn’t even remember anything about the accident! He won’t be at school for at least four weeks.”
The next morning, everybody at school was talking about Jackson.
“Lucky Jackson,” Maya said. “He gets to miss so much school.”
“The poor guy can’t even move, and you think he’s lucky ” said Kathy.
Bob shook his head sadly, “He was so good at soccer- what if he can never play again ”
“Maybe we should send him a card or visit him in the hospital,” suggested Bill.
“Will he even remember us ” asked Gina.
“I can’t believe he lost his memory!” Lisa cried.
Just then, Jackson came around the corner and walked over to Gina and Lisa. “Hey guys, what’s going on ” he asked.
Everyone stopped talking and stared at him.

People know animals do have feelings, but they are not sure if these feelings are correctly understood. In recent years, scientists have done research about the feelings of cows, frogs and pandas. ______ It says that humans can tell whether a chicken is happy or sad by listening to its calls.
The researchers put a bowl behind a door. Inside the bowl, sometimes, there was something chickens love to eat, such as rice or insects. Sometimes, there was nothing. When the chickens saw food behind the door, they seemed happy and produced fast and loud sounds, known as food calls. When there wasn’t food, the chickens made low and long noises to express disappointment. The researchers recorded all these sounds and studied their waves.
Then the researchers chose 16 recordings of such chicken noises. Half were from the chickens seeing the food and half were. from the chickens finding no food. The recordings were played to 194 volunteers. Sixty-nine percent of the volunteers correctly understood whether the chickens were feeling happy or not, and some of them even had no experience of taking care of chickens.
The result shows that humans have the natural ability to understand the feelings of chickens. Hopefully, this finding can bring about new technology to help with chicken-raising, a big industry in many countries. Some scientists are already working on a smart computer program that can identify chickens’ feelings. This is good news for farmers who want to make the birds happier and healthier.
58. Which of the following can be put in “______” in Paragraph 1
A. Humans may not like animals. B. A new study adds chickens to the list.
C. Nobody knows why this happens. D. Scientists know nothing about it.
59. Which is most probably the sound wave of a happy call by a chicken
A. B. C. D.
60. What does the underlined word “identify” mean in Paragraph 4
A. Control. B. Hide. C. Recognize. D. Hurt.
61. What is the best title for the passage
A. Chickens’ Food Calls B. Happy Chickens, Sad Chickens
C. Farmers’ Best Choice D. Smart Farmers, Healthy Farmers
D
Do you get in trouble for feeding your dog on food from dinner under the table A new study suggests that by sharing “people food”, you might actually be helping to keep your pet healthy.
Many dogs are fed dry processed food. Science has shown that a diet(饮食) of processed food is not healthy for humans. Scientists from the University of Helsinki, in Finland, say this diet is not good for our pet dogs, either.
The scientists discovered that the food a dog might find in an owner’s home such as eggs, fish, meat and vegetables may be better than a diet of just dog food. This is because having different kinds of food leads to more variety(多样性) in microbes, which are little living things, too small to be seen with our eyes. There are millions of them in human and animal bodies. Some are bad for us, but many are good for us, and they play important roles in helping us digest (消化) food.
A total of 8,500 young pet dogs took part in the study.4,500 of them were under 6 months old, and the rest were between 6 and 18 months old. The owners were asked about what food they had fed their pets and how often. When the dogs reached adulthood, their owners reported that about20% of the dogs showed CE symptoms(慢性肠胃不适症状) such as weight loss. However, if dogs had been fed a mixed diet while young, it was 22% less possible for them to experience CE symptoms later in life.
Dr. Anna Hielm Bjorkman told The Times of London “Dog food on sale is described as providing a complete diet. But what we show is that variety is important. Nobody would give 12 years of the same food to a child- why should a dog be different ”
62. According to the new study, dog owners ______.
A. must offer dry food to their dogs B. can feed dogs on “people food”
C. had better buy more processed food D. shouldn’t make food by themselves
63. Paragraph 3 mainly explains why ______.
A. dogs need different kinds of food B. little living things stay in human bodies
C. scientists study dry processed food D. people should keep dogs at home
64. How does the writer describe the study in Paragraph 4 to make it believable
A. By using pictures. B. By giving examples.
C. By telling stories. D. By listing numbers.
65. Which part of a magazine is the passage probably taken from
A. History. B. Business. C. Science. D. Culture.

Saturday was the day of Becky’s picnic. Becky’s mother prepared the picnic food. No adults went with the children, just some young teachers. They all met at Judge Thatcher’s house and then they went on the ferry together.
They played games at the wooded place where the ferry stopped. Then there was the picnic meal, and finally a visit to some nearby caves. It was quite late when they started back towards the town.
Huck was already on duty watching the tavern. He heard the door closing softly. Two men walked past him, and one had something under his arm. It must be the box! It was too late to call Tom now, so Huck decided to follow them. They went up Cardiff Hill and down the other side into the dark trees. Then they stopped. Huck heard Indian Joe’s voice just in front of him.
‘Widow Douglas has got guests - there are lights on!’
‘Let’s go back,’ said the other man.
‘Go back I’m going to leave this country forever and this is my last chance to get my revenge(报仇) on her. I’m not interested in her money - you can have it. But her husband jailed me many times for being homeless and whipped me in front of the whole town. He’s dead, but I’ll take revenge on her!’
‘Let’s start now!’
“No, we must wait until the guests have gone and the lights are out.”
Huck listened in horror. Then he walked backwards very carefully until he was a good distance from the two men. Then he ran down the hill until he reached the Welshman’s house. He banged(猛敲) on the door. The old man put his head out of the window.
“What’s all that noise What do you want ”
‘Let me in - quickly! I’ll I tell you everything!’ The door opened and Huck told his story. Three minutes later the old man and his sons were up the hill walking quietly. After a silence there was a sudden explosion of guns and a cry. Huck ran back down the hill as fast as he could.

The next morning, Long John Silver sailed the ship to the place where the anchor was drawn on the map. This was b 81 Skeleton Island, and the main island, a few hundred metres from both shores. Trees came down from the hills to the water line all around us. It was very q 82 , and there was no sound but the waves breaking on the beaches.
The crew were unsettled(不安宁的) and they didn’t want to do any work and we were afraid of mutiny (叛变). The squire called his three servants, Hunter, Joyce and Redruth, and explained the s 83 . Then he gave them loaded pistols.
The captain decided to let the crew go ashore. The men s 84 pleased to get off the ship. They talked to Silver-who was openly in charge-and thirteen of them, including Silver, decided to go ashore. That left six of Silver’s men on board. At the last moment, I j 85 into one of the boats. Silver was in the other one and he looked over at me a 86 . As soon as we were under the trees, I caught a branch and swung myself out and jumped into the nearest bushes.
“Jim! Jim!” shouted Silver from the second boat.
But I r 87 as fast and far as I could through the trees until I could run no more.
I was pleased at having escaped from Long John Silver and I began to enjoy myself l 88 at the strange place I was in. I felt like an explorer but soon I h 89 some men talking close by. The voices got c 90 and I recognized Silver’s voice so I hid. I listened to Silver and the other man, Tom, talking.

Looking back at my growth, I think I have changed a lot. I used to be a shy and timid person, but now I’m more confident and independent. I can express my opinions bravely and make decisions on my own.
When dealing with problems, I first keep calm and analyze them carefully. Then, I search for possible solutions either from books or by asking for advice. If one way doesn’t work, I’ll try another.
Among those who have influenced me, my mother stands out. She has always been there for me. When I failed, she comforted me with warm words. Her belief in me and her encouragement to be brave have given me the strength to face difficulties and move forward in this journey of growth.
