    As we know, there are differences between western culture and Chinese culture. We can see  differences  when we pay attention to the words that are used. Let’s look at the words about describing animals. Most phrases in Chinese about the dog. For example, “ a  homeless dog”, “a running dog”,  and “ a dog catching a mouse”, have negative meanings.
    But in western countries, dogs are considered honest and good friends of humans. In English, people use dogs to describe positive behavior. For example, ”You are  lucky dog” means you are a  lucky person.   And  “Every dog has its day” means__________. To describe a person’s serious illness, they say “sick as a dog”. The  word  “dog-tired”  means  “ very tired”. The  words  about animals are used in positive or negative ways in different cultures. We can learn about many differences in cultures by comparing how certain words are used.

    Think stars don’t move? Think again! When you look at the sky at night, the stars may appear to stay in the same place. But stars are always on the move—they are just so far away that the movement is hard to see.
    But some stars move in ways that appear to be strange to be real. In 2005, astronomer Warren Brown found one of these space oddities(奇特). It was located on the outer edge of the Milky Way, the galaxy(星系) we live in. The star was speeding away like nothing he’d ever seen. “It seemed unbelievable. No star in the galaxy has a speed like that,” Brown remembers. “I thought, oh my goodness, I have something kind of special here.”
    No one had ever seen a star like this one. What does a scientist do when the results don’t make sense?
    Brown didn’t give up. Instead, he kept looking. And he kept finding more of these strange and speedy stars, called hypervelocity stars. Hyper means “above” and velocity has to do with speed. He and his team just found six more of these “above speed” stars, bringing to the total of 16. And, he says, he’s found even more, and is just waiting for the scientific community to confirm them.
    小题1:In 2005, astronomer Warren Brown found___________.
    A．a star was speeding away very fast.
    B．a stars was moving away very slowly.
    C．some stars were not real.
    D．some stars were not in the Milky Way.
    小题2:Which of the following is TRUE?
    A．Stars never move at all.
    B．No star in the galaxy has a fast speed.
    C．It’s hard to see the stars moving.
    D．Brown has never seen something special.
    小题3:The underlined word “hypervelocity” in the last paragraph probably means”_____”.
    A．匀速的B．超速的C．超重的D．超常的
    小题4:The writer writes this passage to tell us____________.
    A．something about an astronomer.
    B．where the Milky Way is
    C．something about the speedy stars.
    D．how scientists do their research

    The first telephone cards, produced in 1976, were Italian. Five years later the first British card appeared, and now you can buy cards in more than a hundred countries. People usually start collecting cards because they are small and light and you do not need much space for them. It is also a cheap hobby for beginners, although for some people it becomes a serious business. In Paris, for example, there is a market where you can only buy telephone cards, and some cards cost up to ￡4,000. The first Japanese card has a value of about ￡28,000. Most people only see cards with prices like these in their collectors’ magazine.
