20．Dolphins are interesting animals and researchers find them interesting to watch．They don't have hands，but can use tools to solve problems，just like us．Scientists have observed a dolphin trying to get a shy eel（鳝鱼） to come out of its hole by poking（捅）it with a dead fish．Many species of dolphin live in large societies．They have many different relationships and need a good communication system； they use a variety of sounds to communicate with each other．
There is currently no evidence that dolphins have a language of their own．But scientists still have a lot to find out about these animals and so there are certain to be a few surprises in the future．
At Kewalo Basin Marine Laboratory in Hawaii，the dolphin team have developed a sign language to communicate with the dolphins，and the results are amazing．Not only do the dolphins understand the meaning of individual words，they also understand the significance of word order in a sentence．For example，when they were asked to‘touch the ball with your tail and then jump over it'they generally responded correctly and straight away，which showed that they understood the language．
Most mammals seem to enjoy play-but dolphins seems to like making their games as challenging as possible．On a beautiful day in 1997，researchers working at a beach，off the southern coast of Brazil，observed a little dog going into the sea and swimming towards the dolphins．To their surprise，the dolphins approached the dog and then started throwing it into the air．The dog seemed to enjoy the‘game'and continued playing with the dolphins for more than an hour．From then on，different dogs were seem trying to interact with the dolphins．
Dolphins live in a very different world from ours，but they are very good at our‘intelligence tests'．For example，they will jump out of the water when they hear a whistle noise．They do this because they will get a fish as a reward．There is still much to learn about these flexible（灵活的）problem-solvers，but from the evidence so far，it would seem as though dolphins are very intelligent．

56．To get a shy eel to come out of its hole，a dolphin would poke it withC．
A．a tool

D．its mouth
57．At a laboratory in Hawaii，the dolphin team have developed aB to communicate with the dolphins．

C．the main structure
D．word order

With the mid-term examinations on the way，are you nervous about your grades？These days，I'm always thinking about．
Started on 10^th Nov.2014By Wilson Smith E-mail：Wilsmith16@yahoo．com
Stacey，14 10^th Nov.2014	I believe that cheating is wrong，but sometimes school can be so stressful （有压力的） that you have to look at your neighbor's paper or bring a cheat sheet．Many of your classmates cheat，so when you see them cheat and get good grades，you want to cheat as well．
Crystal，16 10^th Nov.2014	Students should not cheat．It is students'responsibility （责任） to get knowledge for college and life．People should know that cheating is wrong and feel some kind of guilt when they do it even though they may please their parents and teachers in this way．
Edison，17 11^th Nov.2014	It makes me feel good when I have a chance to cheat but I don't．In the eighth grade，we were taking a test and everyone got up out of their seats when the teacher left the room．But I didn't．I'd like to look at my report card and say honestly，"This is my grade．"

Fiona，16 13^th Nov.2014	I think，well，cheating is OK if it's the teacher's fault．You know，if a teacher isn't making the material understandable，you have to do something to keep your grades up．But it's not OK when the reason is just"I'm lazy，""I'm tired，""I don't like it，"or"I would rather sleep in class．"

2．Farmers，especially in developing countries，are often criticized for cutting down forests．But a new study suggests that many farmers recognize the value of keeping trees．
Researchers using satellite images found at least ten percent tree cover on more than one billion hectares of farmland．That is almost half the farmland in the world．Earlier estimates were much lower but incomplete．The authors of the new study say it may still underestimate the true extent worldwide．
The study found the most tree cover in South America．Next comes Africa south of the Sahara，followed by Southeast Asia．North Africa and West Asia have the least．
The study found that climate conditions alone could not explain the amount of tree cover in different areas．Nor could the size of nearby populations，meaning people and trees can live together．There are areas with few trees but also few people，and areas with many trees and many people．The findings suggest that things like land rights，markets or government policies can influence tree planting and protection．
Dennis Garrity，who heads the World Agroforestry Center，says farmers are acting on their own to protect and plant trees．The problem，he says，is that policy makers and planners have been slow to recognize this and to support such efforts．
The satellite images may not show what the farmers are using the trees for，but trees provide nuts，fruit，wood and other products．They also help prevent soil loss and protect water supplies．Even under drought（干旱）conditions，trees can often provide food and a way to earn money until the next growing season．
Some trees act as natural fertilizers．They take nitrogen（氮气）out of the air and put it in the soil．Scientists at the Center say the use of fertilizer trees can re-duce the need for chemical nitrogen by up to three-fourths．Trees also capture carbon dioxide，a gas linked to climate change．
35．Through the study，the researchers found thatA．
A．there are more trees on farmlands than expected
B．fewer trees are being cut in developing countries
C．most farmers still don't realize the value of trees
D．trees play a key role in preventing climate change
36．Which of the following has the least tree cover？B
A．Southeast Asia      B．West Asia．
C．South America．D．Africa south of the Sahara．
37．In Dennis Garrity's opinion，D．
A．most farmers care about nothing but their own interests
B．there are usually few people living in areas with few trees
C．government plays a small role in tree planting and protection
D．government should support farmers in planting and protecting trees
38．The sixth paragraph mainly tells aboutC．
A．how farmers plant trees           B．what products trees can bring
C．the importance of trees to farmers   D．the environmental value of tree cover．

20．We don't have beds in the space shuttle but we do have sleeping bags．During the day，when we are working，we leave the bags tied to the wall，out of the way．At bedtime we untie them and take them wherever we've chosen to sleep．
On most space shuttle flights everyone sleeps at the same time．No one has to stay awake to watch overthe space-plane； the shuttle's computers and the engineers at Mission Control do that．If anything goes wrong，the computers will ring an alarm and the engineers call us on the radio．
In the space shuttle，sleep-time doesn't mean nighttime．During each ninety-minute orbit the sun"rises"and shines through our windows for about fifty minutes，then it"sets"as our path takes us around the dark side of the Earth．To keep the sun out of our eyes，we wear black sleep masks．
It is surprisingly easy to get comfortable and fall asleep in space．Every astronaut sleeps differently．Some sleep upside down，some sideways，some right side up．When it's time to sleep，I take my bag，my sleep mask，and my tape player with earphones and float up to the flight deck．Then I crawl into the bag，and float in a sitting position just above a seat，right next to a window．Before I pull the mask down over my eyes，I have a rest for a while； listening to music and watching the Earth go by beneath me．
56．When it's bedtime，astronauts put their sleeping bagsD．
A．on the wall
