22、

In ancient(古代的) China, most kids never got a chance to go to school. They had to plant rice and vegetables, feed chickens or take care of their little brothers or sisters.

But if you were a boy, your father could spare you from the fields and send you to school. If there wasn’t a school in your village, you might have to live with your relatives or strangers in a town. Luckily, beginning in the Han dynasty, the school fees(费用) were paid by the emperor(皇帝). Boys worked very hard in school, because the school prepared them for the government tests. And whoever scored highly in the tests could get a good job.

Boys usually started school when they were about six years old. Elementary schools were very small with only one teacher for the whole school. Boys went to school every day, with no weekends, from about 6:00 in the morning to about 4:00 in the afternoon. There weren’t any Maths or science lessons. The students learned how to read and write, and how to paint pictures.

23、   Did you recently hear music and dancing from the other side of the world? It was Carnival, a big party that was held in Brazil, the largest country in South America, from Feb 21 to 26.

Carnival is one of the biggest parties in the world. It is held every February or March, the hottest time of the year in Brazil. People dance to samba (桑巴) music, wear colorful clothes and eat delicious food at this wild festival.

The parades are the most fantastic part of Carnival, with beautiful floats (花车)and thousands of dancers. The most interesting part is the "main parades", when top samba schools perform and compete (竞赛). There are big fields for the main parades.

The schools have different themes for their parades. This year, in the Brazilian city of Sao Paulo, one samba school had a China theme.

24、   Many people say dolphins are intelligent. They seem to be able to think, understand and learn things quickly. But are they as smart as humans, or are they more like cats and dogs? Dolphins use their brains quite differently from the way humans do. But scientists say dolphins and humans are very similar in some ways. How?

Like humans, every dolphin has its own “name”. The name is a special whistle(哨声). Each dolphin chooses a specific(特有的) whistle for itself, usually by its first birthday. Dolphins are like people in other ways, too. They “talk” to each other about a lot of things—such as their age, their feelings, and finding food. They also use a system of sounds and body language to communicate. Understanding dolphin conversation is not easy for humans. No one “speaks dolphin” yet, but some scientists are trying to learn.

Dolphins are also social animals. They live in groups called pods, and they often join others from different pods to play games and have fun—just like people. Scientists believe playing together is something only intelligent animals do.

Dolphins and humans are similar in another way: both species make plans for getting things they want. In the seas of southern Brazil, for example, dolphins use an intelligent plan to get food. When there are fish near a boat, dolphins signal(发信号) to the fishermen to put their nets in the water. Using this method, the men can catch a lot of fish. Why do dolphins help the men? There is an advantage for them: they get to eat some of the fish that escape(逃脱) from the net.

【1】What is a dolphin's “name”？

A.It is a kind of game.

B.It is a body sign.

C.It is a dolphin's age.

D.It is a specific sound.

【2】Scientists believe ________ is something only intelligent animals do.

A.singing songs B.playing together C.finding food D.making decisions

【3】What can we infer from the passage?

A.Some scientists can understand dolphins' system of sounds.

B.Dolphins probably help fishermen by using their body language.

C.Humans join dolphins' groups to get things we want.

D.Dolphins can talk to humans about their age and their feelings.

【4】What's the main idea of the passage?

A.Dolphins can communicate with each other at birth.

B.Dolphins are social animals because they play together.

C.Dolphins are smart and are like humans in some ways.

D.Dolphins help humans do many things like catching fish.

25、   Can you live without a home, food or clothes? Very few of us can, but Robinson Crusoe did it in the novel 【1】(write) by Daniel Defoe.

In the story, Crusoe got on 【2】 island alone after a shipwreck (海难). Being a【3】 on that island, Crusoe experienced a lot of difficulties. However, he didn’t l【4】 hope. Instead, he tried his 【5】 (good) to survive. He got water, food and some tools from the wrecked ship and built himself a shelter on the island. He even 【6】(grow) barley (大麦) and raised a few goats. Soon his life there was just fine.

He didn’t know that there were other people u【7】 one day he saw some cannibals performing a ceremony to kill and eat two men. He saved one of them and n【8】 him Friday. They stayed together after that and became good f【9】. Not long after that, some other people came to this island and Crusoe went back to his  h【10】with these people.

This book has been very popular with all ages around the world. People admire Crusoe for his bravery and courage.
