21、   Monarch butterflies from eastern Canada make the most amazing journey in the insect world. Each year, this butterfly travels about 3, 000 miles to its winter home in central Mexico. How can it fly so far? And why does it make this long and dangerous trip? Scientists still don’t have an answer.

For many years, people in Mexico wondered where the orange and-black butterflies came from every winter. Then, in 1937, a scientist started to follow and study the butterflies. For the next 20 years, he discovered that one butterfly started its journey in Canada. Four months later, it arrived in Mexico.

The length of the butterflies’ trip is only one part of the mystery. Another amazing thing is that the butterflies always return to the same area in central Mexico.

How do the butterflies find their way back to the same place? This is an interesting question because only every fourth generation(代) makes the trip south. In other words, the butterfly that travels to Mexico this year is the great great-grandchild of the butterfly that traveled there last year.

Each year, four generations of a Monarch butterfly family are born. Each generation of the family has a very different life. The first generation is born in the south in late April. It slowly moves north, reproduces(繁衍), and then dies. Each of these generations of butterflies lives for only two or five weeks. In the autumn, the fourth generation of butterflies is born. This generation has a much longer life. It lives for about eight months. This generation of butterflies makes the amazing journey back to the winter there, and in the spring they reproduce and then die. Their offspring will be the first generation of the next circle of life.

Today, people are still studying the Monarch butterfly. But they are not clear about everything.

【1】What’s the best title of the passage?

B．Mystery of Monarch butterflies

C．Monarch butterflies’ birthplace

D．Monarch butterflies’ winter home

【2】It took the scientists ________ to find out that Monarch butterflies came from Canada.

D．eight months

【3】We know that the ________ generation of Monarch butterflies travel back to central Mexico.

A．first

B．second

C．third

D．fourth

【4】The underlined word “offspring” in the passage is closest in meaning to ________.

A．seasons

B．butterflies

C．children

D．parents

【5】Which statement is TRUE according to the text?

A．Monarch butterflies spend winter in eastern Canada.

B．The four generations have the same length of life.

C．Some generations die on the way north of Canada.

D．Scientists are clear about everything of the butterflies.

22、Years ago, if a teenager had some problems in his life, he might write them in his diary. Now he might get on the Internet and write them in his blog(博客). In many ways, a diary and a blog are almost the same. Then, what makes a blog different from a diary?

The biggest difference is that a blog is much more public than a diary. Anyone can read what you write in your blog. Usually, a teenager likes hiding his diary book and treats it as a secret. If you are not satisfied with a friend and write something bad about him in your diary, he will never know it. However, if you do this on the Internet, that friend may read your blog and get angry. So we have to be careful of what we write.

A blog has good points, of course. People choose to write in blogs. They know that their friends will read what they write. If you feel sad one day and write in your diary, no one will know about it. If you write the same words in your blog, your friends may quickly write back to comfort you and offer their help. Blogs help people know what their friends are doing.

Though it's a good way to write blogs about everyday life, I still prefer my old diary.

【1】Now when a teenager has some problems in his life, he might________．

A．talk to his friends

B．keep them in his diary

C．write them in his blog

D．keep them in secret

【2】________ is NOT mentioned in the passage.

A．Chatting on QQ

B．Getting on the Internet

C．Writing blogs

D．The difference between a diary and a blog

【3】The underlined word “comfort” means “________” in Chinese.

A．责怪

B．安慰

C．嘲笑

D．贬低

【4】From the passage we know that ________．

A．the writer thinks a blog is more helpful than a diary

B．the writer thinks a blog and a diary are the same

C．the writer likes a diary better than a blog

D．the writer likes a blog better than a diary

【5】The passage mainly talks about________．

A．the teenagers' problems in their lives

B．the difference between a diary and a blog

24、   Once a man was shipwrecked(遭遇海难) on a small, lonely island. There was no one living on this island, so he hoped that someone could come to save him. Every day he watched the horizon(地平线), but no ships ever appeared. The man grew sad.

He thought he should do something to save himself. He built a little house out of wood for shelter. But one day, after looking for food, he arrived home to find his little house on fire. The smoke rose to the sky. The worst thing happened and everything was lost. He was full of sadness and anger. “God, how could you do this to me?” he cried.

Early the next day, however, he was woken up by the sound of a ship. The ship was coming near to the island. It had come to save him.

“How did you know I was here?” the man asked these people. “We saw your smoke signal(信号),” they answered.

It is easy to get discouraged when things are going badly. But we shouldn′t lose heart, because hope is at work in our lives. Remember, next time your little house is burning to the ground, it just may be a smoke signal that brings better luck.

W【4】 asking for permission, he took the sign, turned it around and w【5】 a new message. Then he put the sign by the feet of the blind man, and left.

Later that afternoon the publicist r【6】 to the blind man and noticed that his hat was almost f【7】 of bills and coins. The blind man recognized (辨别出) his footsteps and asked if it was he who had changed his sign. He a【8】 wanted to know what the man wrote on it.

The publicist r【9】, “I just wrote the message a little differently.” He smiled and went on his way. The new sign read, “Spring has come, but I can’t see a【10】.”
