In Shakespeare’s HAMLET, Plnius asks the prince, “What are yu reading, my Lrd?” Hamlet replies, “Wrds, wrds, wrds.” Either, as is likely, Hamlet wasn’t interested in what he was reading, r, less likely, he didn’t understand the wrds he was reading. In this case, Plnius shuld have lent Hamlet a gd dictinary.
Dictinaries are essential tls fr peple wh like t read. There are s many wrds in English that even the mst educated persn will smetimes meet an unfamiliar wrd and have t lk it up. Languages keep changing, t, with new wrds cnstantly being added and new meanings being applied t ld wrds. Fr example, the 12th editin f Xinhua Dictinary, the mst ppular dictinary in China, has added new wrds such as “chu xin” “fen si” “er wei ma” etc. As fr new meanings, “girl” nce meant “a small child f either sex”. And “naughty” didn’t mean yu were “enjying playing tricks”; it meant yu were pr.
A printed dictinary can’t keep pace with all the changes, which is why mst dictinaries have websites and apps t help yu keep up-t-date. Hwever, I still prefer printed dictinaries because they give yu mre definitins and mre examples f hw a wrd is used. Even a simple wrd, such as “set”, has 430 meanings (the mst f English wrds) but an nline dictinary wuld nly ffer tw r three. A printed dictinary als gives yu the pprtunity t discver new wrds as yu run yur finger dwn the page lking fr the wrd yu want.
There is n “fficial” English dictinary, but the Oxfrd English Dictinary is cnsidered t be the best. Fr English language learners, hwever, I wuld recmmend the Cllins COBUILD Dictinary fr Advanced Learners. Hamlet, by the way, was Danish and a cllege student. He wuld have appreciated the Cllins Dictinary t help himself with his wrds, wrds, wrds. This dictinary has ver 40,000 wrds and gives yu full-sentence definitins with gd examples f hw wrds are used.
4.What’s the functin f paragraph 1?
A.T intrduce the tpic.
B.T let the readers knw mre abut HAMLET.
C.T aruse readers’ interest in Shakespeare.
D.T explain when it’s necessary t use a dictinary.
5.Why des the authr mentin “girl” in paragraph 2?
A.T shw hw pwerful Xinhua Dictinary is.
B.T supprt the idea: languages keep changing.
C.T prve new wrds are being added t dictinaries.
D.T imply “girl” als means “by” in sme cases.
6.What’s the authr’s attitude t printed dictinaries?
A.Favrable.B.Ambiguus.C.Negative.D.Critical.
7.What’s the authr’s purpse f writing the last paragraph?
A.T intrduce the histry f dictinaries.
B.T call n learners t use dictinaries.

"The really frightening thing abut middle age,"the actr Dris Day is said t have jked, “is that yu knw yu’ll grw ut f it."We may bravely try t claim that life begins at 40-but fr many peple, it can feel mre like the beginning f the end.
Mid life wasn't always seen this way. It isn’t clear why we have a mre negative view tday, but Margie Lachman, directr f the lifespan develpment lab at Brandeis University in Massachusetts, suggests it may be linked t the pressures that begin piling up in ur 30s. “Midlife is a perid f high stress tday, mre s than in the past,"she says." One is exactly in the middle f wrk and family careers. This can affect ne's ability t fcus r ne's wn well-being."
There are, hwever, many reasns t feel psitive abut this crucial perid. In a series f experiments, Laura Germine at Harvard Medical Schl has tested tens f thusands f peple t examine the differences in cgnitive abilities between age grups. Germine's studies have included the famus "mind in the eyes" test, fr instance, which gets peple t infer emtinal states frm small differences in facial expressins. She fund that peple n their late 40s scred highest. This may be due t practice, she suggests."When yu think abut the amunt f scial differences that ne has t learn acrss the lifespan— that's where we think that cmes frm.'
Germine fund similar patterns in a task demanding cntinuus attentin. In this, the participants had t watch different scenes fade int ne anther and adapt their respnse accrding t what they saw—pressing a buttn when they saw a city and releasing it when they saw a muntain. 40-smethings fund it much easier t "get int the zne than yunger peple.
It is interesting t nte that middle-aged peple frequently bring in the mst supplies in traditinal hunter-gatherer scieties. Accrding t varius studies, hunter-gatherers ften take decades t learn their skills, and these abilities cntinue t grw int their 40s.
There are sme dwnsides t hitting this age, f curse. Our skin tends t becme lse and ur bdy fat starts t be redistributed arund the midriff. But after a drp in life satisfactin, happiness is already set t rise at the end f this decade and the beginning f the next.
Cntrary t ppular pinin, humans seem t have evlved t flurish int middle age and beynd.
8.What can we infer frm the first paragraph?
A.Dris Day felt excited in her 40s.B.It's believed that life begins at 40.
C.Lts f peple feel wrried at 40.D.We are suppsed t be braver at 40.
9.Which f the fllwings is TRUE accrding t the text?

B.There seem t be reasns fr us t be ptimistic abut middle age.
C.The participants in their 40s did badly in Germine's experiments.
D.Humans' physical appearance definitely gets wrse in their40s.
10.The underlined wrd "flurish" in the last paragraph is clsest in meaning t

If yu have ever tried t catch a resting butterfly, yu knw it is surprisingly difficult. A new study helps explain why.
Previus research had suggested that a butterfly's verhead wing clap frces the insect frward. Researchers thught the wing clap likely frmed a pcket f air that shts ut like a jet. But n ne had tested that until nw.
T analyze their flight, they placed six butterflies ne at a time inside a wind tunnel which was filled with smke and then used a laser t light up the smke just behind the butterfly. Fur high-speed cameras were placed in the tunnel t take phts f the mvement f the butterfly and the smke as the butterfly was taking ff. This let the researchers create a 3D picture f that air mvement as the insect flapped its wings.
They analyzed a ttal f 25 takeffs by six butterflies. Each included up t three wingbeats after takeff. The butterflies prved mre likely t clap their wings tgether during the first few wingbeats than later in flight.
The phts shw that frces created by the wings give rise t a flight path. The butterflies rise as their wings mve dwn and sht frward as their wings mve up. A wing clap n takeff, paired with a quick turn, allwed the butterflies t fly away quickly. They als nticed the wings frmed an air pcket just befre clapping and that the wings' flexibility and this pcket imprved the jet frce created by the clap.
“The study is exalting,” says Aydeji Bde-Oke, a mechanical engineer in Charlttesville. That means “we have slved the lngtime puzzle abut hw butterflies fly, and it prves nthing is impssible n the rad f scientific research. I can't wait t learn abut hw the study might infrm designs fr small flying vehicles.”
12.Why was laser used in the experiment?
A.T frighten the butterflies int flying.B.T help researchers bserve the butterflies.
C.T help take clear phts f air mvement.D.T guide the butterflies thrugh the smke.
13.What is the finding f the research accrding t paragraph 5?
A.Butterflies fly frward as wings mve dwn.
B.An air pcket frms after butterflies clap wings.
C.Butterflies beat wings three times befre taking ff.
D.Upward wing mvements help butterflies fly frward.
14.What des the underlined wrd “exalting" in the last paragraph prbably mean?
A.Puzzling.B.Exciting.C.Simple.D.Impssible.
15.What can be the best title fr the text?
A.Why Can Butterflies Fly Like a Jet?B.Hw Can Butterflies Make Wing Claps?

Trpical Rainfrest
Trpical rainfrests are a wrld like nne ther. 16 Unparalleled in terms f their bilgical diversity, trpical rainfrests are a natural reservir f genetic diversity. They ffer a rich surce f medicinal plants and ther useful frest prducts. They are an imprtant habitat fr migratry animals and preserve as much as 50 percent f the species n earth, as well as a number f diverse and unique riginating cultures. Trpical rainfrests play an elemental rle in regulating glbal weather in additin t maintaining regular rainfall, while buffering(緩沖)against flds, drughts,and sil ersin (腐蝕). 17
Despite their mnumental rle, trpical frests are restricted t the small land area between the latitudes 22.5 degrees nrth and 22.5 degrees suth f equatr. The majrity f the earth's land is lcated nrth f the trpics. 18
Trpical rainfrests are a scarce resurce in the 21st century. What ever carpeted the earth’s land surface a mere five generatins ag has been reduced t scattered fragments(碎片); tday, mre than tw-thirds f the wrld's trpical rainfrests exist as fragmented remainings. 19 Over half f this frest lies in Brazil, which hlds abut ne-third f the wrld's remaining trpical rainfrests. Anther 20 percent f the wrld's remaining rainfrests exists in Indnesia and Cng Basin, while the balance f the wrld's rainfrests are scattered arund the glbe, in trpical regins
20 It is based rughly n fur frested cntinental regins: the Ethipian r Afrtrpical, the Australasian r Australian, the Oriental r Indmalayan Asian, and the Netrpical.
A.They take in adequate fresh water and xygen.
B.In that case, new rain frests are seen t be discvered.
C.Their glbal distributin can be brken up int fur bigegraphical areas.
D.Their imprtance t the glbal ecsystem and human existence is vital.
E.As a cnsequence, rainfrests are naturally limited t a relatively small area.
F.They stre vast quantities f carbn while prducing a significant amunt f the wrld’s xygen.
G.The largest unbrken stretch f rainfrest is fund in the Amazn river basin f Suth America.

8.推理判斷題。根據第一段中“We may bravely try t claim that life begins at 40- but fr many peple,it can feel mre like the beginning f the end.(我們可能會勇敢地嘗試聲稱生命從40開始,但對許多人來說,它會感覺更像是結束的開始)”可知,我們能從第一段推斷出“很多人在40歲時感到擔心”。故選C。

Fur high-speed cameras were placed in the tunnel t take phts f the mvement f the butterfly and the smke as the butterfly was taking ff. This let the researchers create a 3D picture f that air mvement as the insect flapped its wings.(為了分析它們的飛行,他們把六只蝴蝶一次一只放在一個充滿煙霧的風洞里,然后用激光照亮蝴蝶身后的煙霧。4臺高速攝像機被放置在隧道中,以拍攝蝴蝶的運動和蝴蝶起飛時產生的煙霧。這使得研究人員能夠繪制出昆蟲扇動翅膀時空氣運動的3D圖像)”可知,在實驗中使用激光是為了幫助拍攝清楚的空氣運動的照片。故選C。
13.細節(jié)理解題。根據第五段中“The butterflies rise as their wings mve dwn and sht frward as their wings mve up.(蝴蝶在翅膀向下移動時上升,在翅膀向上移動時向前飛行)”可知,蝴蝶的翅膀向上移動,它們就會向前飛。故選 D。
