Thailand's giant pandas have finally produced a baby. Chiang Mai zoo director Thanapath said eight-year-old female Lin Hui gave birth to a baby panda weighing about 200 grams.

  The pandas, Lin Hui and Chuang Chuang, the zoo's star residents(居民)，had shown no interest in reproducing the traditional way since they both arrived on a 10-year loan from China in 2003. The zoo workers' efforts of artificial insemination(人工受孕）worked. The baby panda will officially belong to China but Thailand will raise it for about 24 months, Thanapath said.

  Thanapath said Lin Hui is very protective of her child and won't allow any officials to get close. " She holds the baby very carefully，" he said. " She knows how to be a mother even though she has never been one before. " The baby panda appears to be getting along well with its much larger mother.

  The birth appeared on the front pages of many Thai newspapers，which carried photos of the baby which is so tiny that it can be held in the hands of a zoo keeper. Other pictures showed the mother Lin Hui gently holding her baby. Thanapath said, "It is of great happiness to see the baby panda. We are so happy that we can breed a panda. Every worker at the zoo is proud and I think every Thai will be proud too."

  Breeding pandas is a common practice in China，where dozens are born each year. But it is a rare thing outside of the country. Giant pandas are among the world's most endangered ani?mals. Nearly 1 ，600 pandas are believed to survive in China and about 180 are being raised in zoos worldwide.

(   ) 6. After about two years,the baby panda is likely to      

A.     remain in Thailand with its mother

  How I Turned to Be Optimistic

  I began to grow up that winter night when my parents and I were returning from my aunt's house, and my mother said that we might soon be leaving for America. We were on the bus then. I was crying, and some people on the bus were turning around to look at me. I remember that I could not bear the thought of never hearing again the radio program for school children to which I listened every morning.

  I do not remember myself crying for this reason again. In fact,I think I cried very little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives. When we were leaving I thought about all the places I was going to see―the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures. The country I was leaving never to come back was hardly in my head then.

  The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism, but the idea did not come to me at once. For the first two years in New York I was really lost―having to study in three schools as a result of family moves. I did not quite know what I was or what I should be. Mother remarried, and things became even more complex for me. Some time passed before my stepfather and I got used to each other. I was often sad,and saw no end to "the hard times".

  My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew English better than everyone else at home. I wrote letters, filled out forms,translated at interviews with immigration of?ficers ,took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there, and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives.

From my experiences I have learned one important rule：almost all common troubles even?tually go away！Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up，and just wait a little！I believe that my life will turn out all right,even though it will not be that easy. 

(   ) 1. How did the author get to know America?

A.     From her relatives.

B.     From her mother.

C.     From books and pictures.

D.     From radio programs.

(   ) 2. Upon leaving for America the author felt      

A. confused    B. excited

C. worried    D. amazed

(   ) 3. What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 4?

A.     She worked as a translator.

B.     She attended a lot of job interviews.

C.     She paid telephone bills for her family.

D.     She helped her family with her English.
(   ) 4. The author believes that      

A.     her future will be free from troubles

B.     it is difficult to learn to become patient

C.     there are more good things than bad things

D.     good things will happen if one keeps trying

 Deserts are found where there is little rainfall or where rain for a whole year falls in only a few weeks' time. Ten inches of rain may be enough for many plants to survive if the rain is spread throughout the year. If it falls within one or two months and the rest of the year is dry， those plants may die and a desert may form.

Sand begins as tiny pieces of rock get smaller and smaller as wind and weather wear them down. Sand dunes(沙丘)are formed as winds move the sand across the desert. Bit by bit,the dunes grow over the years,always moving with the winds and changing the shape. Most of them are only a few feet tall，but they can grow to be several hundred feet high.

  There is,however, much more to a desert than sand. In the deserts of the southwestern United States, cliffs(懸崖)and deep valleys were formed from thick mud that once lay beneath a sea more than millions of years ago. Over the centuries, the water dried up. Wind,sand,rain,heat and cold all wore away at the remaining rocks. The faces of the desert mountains are al?ways changing―very，very slowly―as these forces of nature continue to work on the rock.

  Most deserts have a surprising variety of life. There are plants, animals and insects that have adapted to life in the desert. During the heat of the day，a visitor may see very few signs of living things, but as the air begins to cool in the evening, the desert comes to life. As the sun begins to rise again in the sky,the desert once again becomes quiet and lonely. 

(   ) 1. Where do you often find a desert according to the description of the author?

A.     Where it never rains or snow the whole year.

B.     Where no rivers flow through all the time.

C.     Where you can hardly find any plant and even signs of life.

D.     Where it seldom rains.

(   ) 2. Why does it often take quite a long time for a desert to come into being?

A.     Because the change of climates is very slow.

B.     Because the land is too large to be changed.

C.     Because most deserts come from seas.

D.     Because rocks are hard to be worn down.

(   ) 3. Most living things seemingly tend to be active      

A. in the morning    B. in the afternoon

C. in the evening    D. all day and night

(   ) 4. Which of the following can act as the title of the passage?

A.     How Did the Desert Coming into Being?

B.     All You Should Know of the Dry Land―Desert

C.     The Life around the Mysterious Desert

D.     Desert, the Dead Place for Life
