In a mango orchard (芒果林) outside a village there lived a mischievous (淘气的) monkey. He kept on eating the ripe mangoes. The orchard keeper tried to trap the monkey. But every time, the monkey escaped from the trap.
One day, the monkey walked about and went into the nearby town. “The town people are so busy. It is so crowded here,” the monkey thought. Soon, the monkey was sneaking into houses and running away with food. By evening, he had made life quite different for the town people. “The town is more fun than the orchard. I will stay here,” he thought. Days went by, and the monkey was considered by the town people as something very frightening. “Here he comes again!” they screamed when they saw the monkey.
One day, a juggler (玩杂耍的人) came to the town. The people of the town went to him. “We want you to help us get rid of the monkey,” they said to the juggler. The juggler said in return, “Do not worry. Get me some jars (罐子) with narrow necks.” When the jars were brought to him, he put some peanuts into them and placed them out of a field. The monkey became curious when he saw the peanuts. “Yummy! Let me quickly get the peanuts and run,” he thought. He put his hand inside a jar and grabbed a big handful of peanuts. But he could not pull out of his clenched fist (紧握的拳头), as the neck of the jar was so narrow. If the monkey had dropped some of the peanuts back into the jar, he could have pulled his hand out. But he was greedy. So he didn’t drop any of the peanuts. The town people trapped the monkey with his hand inside the jar. They got hold of a rope and tied him to a post. Then the monkey was sold to a zoo. That was the end of the greedy monkey.

It took 100 years, but finally, scientists, from CalTech, MIT and the LIGO Scientific Collaboration, proved Albert Einstein's theory that gravitational(引力的) waves exist. The waves were predicted as part of Einstein's General Theory of Relativity nearly 100 years ago. It was the theory of the physics behind the workings of our world and the universe. The idea was that the waves are like ripples in space, caused by some of the violent and energetic processes in the Universe. For example, two black holes crashing into each other.
What are these gravitational waves? Well, imagine throwing a rock into a pond. When the rock hits the flat surface of the water, it creates ripples or waves. Space time is like the surface of the water. So that means gravitational waves are like the ripples moving out from where the rock hits the water. It might be hard to understand, but those gravitational waves expand and contract space and time as they move through space. And when they get to the Earth, the waves pass through, and contract and expand the planet as the wave goes by.
It was Einstein who said these gravitational waves should be observable. But these are not huge waves. They are very, very small, which is why it took so long to find them. You cannot see them with your eyes. They are smaller than the size of an atom.
How did the scientists find them? For years, scientists have been watching two black holes in another galaxy faraway with the help of the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory. The two were spinning around each other, moving closer and closer together. When they finally crashed into each other, it was with such power and force, that gravitational waves rang throughout the universe, like a giant bell. Those waves, traveling at the speed of light, finally reached the Earth, some 1.3 billion years later. They are the same waves that the scientists announced this past week.
The National Science Foundation tweeted that each of the black holes was thought to be 29 to 36 times the mass of our sun. So, what does this discovery mean? Abhay Ashtekar, a Penn State physicist, who was not on the discovery team, said: "Our understanding of the heavens changed dramatically."
1.According to the 1st paragraph, we can learn that_______.
A. gravitational waves were part of Einstein's General Theory of Relativity
B. scientists proved that gravitational waves existed 100 years ago
C. gravitational waves were the theory of the physics behind the universe
D. gravitational waves result from two black holes crashing into each other
2.From the passage we can know that the gravitational waves______.
A. are not supposed to be observed.
B. are very huge.
C. are easy to be found.
D. can’t be seen with our eyes.
3.Why did scientists spend years watching two black holes?
A. Because they wanted to see how the two black holes crashed into each other.
B. Because they wanted to find the gravitational waves.
C. Because they wanted to see the gravitational waves reach the Earth.
D. Because they wanted to know how black holes formed.
4.What can we infer from the passage?
A. The discovery has no relation to Albert Einstein's theory
B. Throwing a rock into a pond can generate gravitational waves
C. The discovery will considerably affect people’s understanding of universe
D. gravitational waves can’t contract and expand the Earth

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项.
Do you know electricity can change the way we taste food? Proving this fact is a revolutionary electric fork designed by Japanese researchers that can make any dish taste salty.
According to Hiromi Nakamura, a Post Doc Research Fellow at
Tokyo’s Meiji University, the technology can be very useful for people on
special diets. Patients with high blood pressure, for instance, can easily go
on a low-salt diet and still enjoy delicious food. And with the fork, there’s absolutely no risk of over-salting their food. Luckily, the voltage(电压) is so small that there is no risk of electrocution(触电) either.
The idea of adding electricity to food was first exposed as an experiment at the Computer
Human Interaction Conference in Austin, Texas, in 2012. Nakamura and her team connected a wire
to a 9-volt battery and passed it through a straw placed in a cup of sweet lemonade. Volunteers
reported that the charged lemonade tasted ‘blander’, because the electricity created the taste of salt.
Nakamura has improved the technology to be able to transfer an electric charge to food through
forks and chopsticks. “The metallic part of the fork is one electrode（电极）, and the handle is the
other,” Nakamura explained. “When you take a piece of food with the fork and put it in your mouth,
you connect the circuit. When you remove the fork from your mouth, you disconnect the circuit. So
it actually works as a switch.”
Simon Klose, host of food program Munchies, who recently visited Nakamura to try out the
fork himself, called this form of ‘food hacking’ one of the greatest eating experiences he’d ever had.
“When I first heard of electric food, it sounded scary,” he said. He later continued to use a charged
fork to eat pieces of fried chicken, and found that the saltiness considerably increased as the electricity was connected.
Nakamura has been eating ‘electric’ food for the past three to four years in an attempt to
understand it better. “For me, ‘food hacking’ is about strengthening or weakening real food,” she
said. “It may seem like we’re cooking but we’re actually working on the human senses.”
1.The electric fork may benefit people who__________.
A. need to go on a diet B. have high blood pressure
C. prefer food free of salt D. show interest in tasty food
2. Paragraph 4 mainly tells us _________.
A. how the electric fork works
B. what makes the circuit connected
C. how the technology was improved
D. why the electric fork was invented
3. From the passage, we learn that the electric fork______.
A. creates virtual taste B. changes people’s diets
C. helps cure diseases D. replaces salt in cooking

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
We all use money every day. It is essential because we can pay money for whatever we want.Money is recognized as banknotes and coins.
However,many years ago people couldn’ t go to the shop and buy what they wanted.They had to get what they wanted through the barter trade(实物交易).It was really difficult,for the barter often depended on coincidence of wants.For example,the seller of grain has to find a buyer who wants to buy grain and who also could offer something the seller wants to buy.And one more example,if a wheat farmer needs what a fruit farmer produces,a direct exchange is impossible because seasonal fruit would spoil before the grain harvest.The solution is to trade fruit for wheat indirectly through a third intermediate commodity(中间的商品),such as cattle,salt,shells,wine.However,commodity money had their disadvantages.For example,cattle,fur,precious stones couldn’ t be cut into smaller pieces and it was inconvenient to keep and transport them.Thus coins were invented.
The earliest known coins in the western world came from Lydia in about 650 B.C.Greek cities,the Great Persian Empire and Roman Empire quickly adopted the new useful technique of metal currency.And by the end of the 6th century,coinages were common throughout the region.However,coins as well as commodity money had many disadvantages.For instance,coins quickly show wear(磨损) and they usually have small value,so it’ s difficult to count large sums of coins.
At first,paper money was used in China in about 650 A.D.After then,it was used in Persia and Japan.In Europe,paper money was firstly produced in the Netherlands in the 16th century and in the USA in the 17th century.Paper money is worthless but symbolic.In other words,paper money is just a note.It has a purchasing power because the government announces it as money and citizens accept it universally.
1.The writer explains the difficulty of barter trade by_______.
A. telling stories B. using examples
C. presenting a theory D. making a comparison
2.What do we know about the early coins?
A. They usually had large value.
B. They were first used in Greece.
C. They still had many disadvantages.
D. People didn’ t like the metal currency.
3.Paper money was used earlier in_______.
A. Rome B. Greece
C. the USA D. the Netherlands
4.What is the passage mainly about?
A. Function of money. B. History of money.
C. Invention of money. D. Types of money.

Hi, Lee,
How are you? When I visited you at last time, I read part of a history book in your school library. Now I wanted to order a copy so that I can finish read it. Unfortunately, I can’t remember the title, I remember that it had the word “Tang Dynasty” in it. I remember very much that the price was on the back cover but I could only read a 8. I think it is a very recent book---write after 2000. Its author is a famous professor, but I have complete forgotten the name. Could you please find the book and let him know its ISBN?
Joe
