【題目】Looking back on my childhood, I am convinced that naturalists are born and not made. Although we were brought up in the same way, my brothers and sisters soon abandoned their pressed flowers and insects. Unlike them, I had no ear for music and languages. I was not an early reader and I could not do mental math.

Before World War I we spent out summer holidays in Hungary. I have only the dim(模糊的)memory of the house we lived in, of my room and my toys, Nor do I recall clearly the large family of grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins who gathered next door. But I do have a crystal clear memory of dogs, the farm animals, the local birds and above all, the insects.

I am a naturalist, not a scientist. I have a strong love of the natural world, and my enthusiasm has led me into various investigations. I love discussing my favorite topics and enjoy burning the midnight oil reading about other people’s observations and discoveries. Then something happens that brings these observations together in my conscious mind. Suddenly you fancy you see the answer to the riddle. Because it all seems to fit together. This has resulted in my publishing 300 papers and books, which some may light honor, with the title of scientific research.

But curiosity, a keen eye ,a good memory and enjoyment of the animal and plant world do not make a scientist: one of the outstanding and essential qualities required is self-discipline, a quality I lack, A scientist can be made a naturalist. If you can combine the two, you get the best of both worlds.

【1】According to the author, a born naturalist should first of all be

A. full of ambition B. self-disciplined

C. full of enthusiasm D. knowledgeable

【2】The first paragraph tells us that the author

A. lost his hearing when he was a child

B. didn’t like his brothers and sisters

C. was interested in flowers and insects in his childhood

D. was born to a naturalist’s family

【3】The author says that his a naturalist rather than a scientist probably because he thinks he

A. just reads about other people’s observations and discoveries

B. lacks some of the qualities required of scientist

C. has a great deal of trouble doing mental arithmetic

D. comes up with solutions in most natural ways.

【4】The author can’t remember his clearly because

A. He didn’t live very long with them

B. He was too young when he lived with them

C. The family was extremely large

D. He was fully occupied with observing nature

【5】Which of the following statements is true?

A. The author believes that a born naturalist cannot be a scientist

B. The author read a lot of books about the natural world and oil industry

C. The author’s brothers and sisters were good at music and languages

D. The author spent a lot of time working on riddles.

【題目】【改編】Can you believe everything that you read? It seems as if every day, some new articles come out about a new discovery about this or that. For example, water is bad for you, or good for you. The answer depends on which scientific study has just come out. People cannot decide which food items are healthy, how pyramids were constructed, and why dinosaurs disappeared. When we look for answers we sometimes can believe persuasive researches and scientists. But how trustworthy are they really? Here are two examples of scientific hoaxes.

As far back as 1726, Johann Beringer was fooled by his fellow scientists into thinking he had made an amazing discovery. The fossils of spiders, lizards, and even birds with the name of God written on them in Hebrew were unlike anything that had been found before. He wrote several papers on them and was famous for those only to have it revealed that they were planted by jealous colleagues to ruin his reputation.

When an early human being was discovered in 1912, scientists at this time were wild with excitement over the meaning it had for the theory of evolution. There were hundreds of papers about this Piltdown man over the next fifty years until it was finally discovered to be a complex hoax. The skull (頭骨) of a man had been mixed with the jawbone of an orangutan (猩猩) to make the ape (猿) man.

The next time you read the exciting new findings of a study of the best scientist, do not automatically assume that it is true. Even qualified people can get it wrong. While we certainly should not ignore scientific research, we do need to take it with a grain of salt. Just because it is accepted as the truth today does not mean it will still be trustworthy tomorrow.

【1】What is the main idea of the passage?

A. Everything in the newspaper is doubtful.

B. People are encouraged to suspect everything.

C. Not everything you read is believable.

D. Sometimes scientists may make mistakes.

【2】What does the underlined word hoaxes mean?

A. Truths. B. Tricks. C. Researches. D. Result.

【3】From the second paragraph we can know______.

A. Johann Beringer was envied by his colleagues.

B. Johann Beringer lived in the seventeenth century.

C. Johann Beringer found the Piltdown man.

D. Johann Beringer found he was fooled by others in time.

【4】According to the passage ,the discovery of Piltdown man______.

A. was significant to the theory of evolution.

B. proved orangutan developed from man.

C. didnt prove false until 50 years later.

D. proved that scientists were very careless.

【5】From the last paragraph we can infer the author thinks_____.

A. scientists are unreliable.

B. everyone can make a mistake.

C. we should ignore scientific research.

D. we should treat scientific research reasonably.

【題目】Perhaps the most challenging material you read at school is poetry. Though the message of some poems may be very simple, the way poets put words together often makes this message elusive. When you read a poem, you should begin by trying to understand what the poet is saying on the surface, then examine the way the poet expresses this content, and finally decide how the poem's meaning is created. Here are some steps to read a poem.

First, read the poem once slowly aloud without writing or marking anything. Don't stop until you finish the poem, even if you don't know the meaning or pronunciation of a word. When you've finished, think it over for a moment on any words, images, and characters that caught your attention. Then read the poem again silently. When you come to a word you don't know, look it up in the dictionary.

Understand the meaning of figurative (比喻的)language. Figurative language doesn't mean exactly what it says; instead, it suggests meanings. For example, in the line Love, all alike, no season knows, the poet doesn't mean love is unfamiliar with four seasons. Love cannot know anything at all; only people can know something. Thus, the poet is personifying(擬人化) love, giving it human qualities.

Examine and think about the poet's use of language. Why, for example, did the poet choose to compare his love to a red rose instead of a tree or a bird? We can use associations: we usually associate roses with beauty and love, but we also know a rose bush has thorns (刺). All of these associations may not be right for a particular poem, but many of them probably will.

Finally, read the poem one more time aloud.Practice using pauses and stress to make the poem's meaning come alive.

【1】The underlined word elusive in Paragraph 1 probably means ________

A.easy B. interesting

C.difficult D. boring

【2】What should we put on the first place when reading a poem?

A.The form of the poem.

B.The content of the poem.

C.The meaning of the poem.

D.The language of the poem.

【3】When reading a poem for the first time, we should________.

A.try to understand new words

B.examine the poem's language

C.try to understand its meaning well

D.a(chǎn)void being stopped by new words

【4】We can learn from the passage that figurative language________.

A.is useful in expressing love

B.helps us understand new ideas

C.is easy for most readers to understand

D.should be repeated while reading a poem
