Sometimes they are brown or tan, and a few are even white. Black bears are usually about five or six feet long, and they are the smallest of the three kinds of bears.

Brown Bears

Brown bears are found in a few western states and in Alaska. They live in forests as well as in open areas called the tundra. Brown bears are usually light or dark brown and can grow to be very large. In fact, some are eight feet long!

Polar Bears

Polar bears can be found in Alaska, which is in a cold area near the North Pole called the Arctic, where there are no trees. Polar bears are white, and they are the largest of the three kinds of bears. They are a little longer and usually heavier than the brown bear.

Winter is when the female bears have their babies. All three types of bears have between one and four cubs. The cubs are born while the mother bear sleeps!

【題目】C)閱讀下面的短文,并根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容回答所提問題。

In September 1991, two German tourists were on holiday in the Alps (阿爾卑斯山脈). One day, they were walking along a road when they saw something in the ice. They stopped and looked. It was part of a body. They thought it was a climber, but they were wrong. This body was over 5300 years old. It was a man from the Stone Age (石器時代).

tzi, as the archaeologists (考古學家) called him, lived between 3350 BC and 3100 BC. He came from northern Italy and he was about forty-six years old. He was about 1.6 meters tall, and he had blue eyes and long, dark brown hair. We know that he was a farmer because scientists found pieces of corn in his clothes.

He changed our ideas about the Stone Age. Before tzi, archaeologists thought that copper () didn't arrive in Europe until 2000 BC. However, tzi was carrying a copper ax (斧頭) 1, 300 years earlier. He was also carrying a knife and some wooden tools. He was wearing warm clothes. These things show that Stone Age people were more amazing than we had thought.

1How old was the body that the two German tourists found in the ice?

_________________________________________________________________________

2tzi was about sixty years old when he died, wasn't he?

【題目】 What’s the first thing that you notice when you walk into your favorite restaurant? Is it the smell of fresh pizza, or the sight of your favorite desserts? Food that looks and smells good will probably taste good, but what about sound? Is that important?

Scientists now believe that the taste of food can change when your ears hear different sounds, but it has to be the right kind of sound. When you turn on a microwave with popcorn in it, it soon starts to pop. Do you think “That sounds tasty!”? Not really, you probably think it’s nearly ready. But when smell it, you go to get the salt and the butter. Hearing the popcorn make you think about it, but smelling it tells you that it tastes good. So what are the sounds to change the tastes of the things?

In an experiment in a fish restaurant, customers listened to the sound of the seaside while they were eating. Did it make a difference? Yes, it did. Listening to the seaside seemed to improve the taste of the food. It was fresher and saltier. When the restaurant tried the same experiment with the sound of the farm animals, there was no difference in taste. The results are going to be useful for restaurants. Perhaps they will try to use fewer unhealthy things, like salt and sugar in food. With the right music or sounds, perhaps we won’t taste the difference.

Restaurants are also setting a connection between food and the sound that the packet(包裝袋) makes. Pick up a packet of your favorite potato chips, what does it sound like? One restaurant recently changed the material that they used to make their potato chip packets because experiments show that the packet which makes a right sound will make customers think the potato chips are fresher. Another idea is that a list of music will begin to appear on food packets, so if you don’t like your green vegetables, the right music or sounds could help you learn to love them.

1According to the passage, what makes you think the popcorn tastes delicious?

A.Turning on the microwave.B.Smelling the popcorn in the microwave.

C.Hearing the popcorn.D.Taking the popcorn out of the microwave.

2What was the result of the experiment in the restaurant?

A.The sounds of the seaside made the food taste better.B.The customers didn’t like the food.

3Why is the material of the food packet important?

A.Because customers want it to sound and look right.

B.Because customers enjoy looking at the different materials.

C.Because customers think the food is good if it makes the right sound.

D.Because customers don’t like noisy packets.

4The passage mainly tells us .

A.sounds make a difference to the taste of food

B.the smell of food makes a difference to the taste of food

C.right music could help people love green vegetable

D.there is a connection between the sight of food and the taste of food

【題目】 The world itself is becoming much smaller by using modern traffic and communication means(工具). Life today is much easier than it was hundreds of years ago, but it has brought new problems. One of the biggest problems is pollution. To pollute means to make things dirty. Pollution comes in many ways. We see it, smell it, drink it and even hear it.

Man has been polluting the earth. The more people have, the more pollution becomes. Many years ago, the problem was not so serious because there were not so many people. When the land was used up or the river was dirty in one place, man moved to another place. But this is no longer true.

Man is now slowly polluting the whole world.

Air pollution is still the most serious. It’s bad for all living things in the world, but it is not the only one kind of pollution. Water pollution kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us angry more easily.

Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. They stop people from burning coal in houses and factories in the city, and from putting dirty smoke into the air. Pollution by SO2 is now the most dangerous kind of pollution, it is caused by heavy traffic. We are sure that if there are fewer people driving, there will be less air pollution.

The earth is our home. We must take care of it. That means keeping the land, water and air clean. And we must pay attention to the rise in pollution at the same time.

1According to the passage, ________, our world is becoming much smaller.

A.because of the rise in pollution

B.thanks to science development

C.because the earth is being polluted day and night

D.because the earth is blowing away by the wind every year
