    In the rush to get to school, you drop a piece of toast on the floor. Do you throw it away or dec ide it’ s still OK to eat? If you’re like most people, you eat it. Maybe you follow the “5-second rule”, which claims foods are safe to eat if you pick them up within 5 seconds after dropping them. But you might want to think again. Scientists now say that 5 seconds is all it takes for foods to become polluted with enough bacteria（细菌） to make you sick.

         Bacteria can cause many kinds of illnesses. Some kinds of bacteria can grow on food. If you eat foods on which these bacteria are growing, you can become sick.

     One of these food-borne bacteria is Salmonella. It makes 1.4 million people sick every year. Salmonella is often found in raw eggs and chicken. Cooking kills these bacteria, which is why it is so important to cook eggs, chicken, and other foods thoroughly.

     But how long does it take these bacteria to pollute food? A team of scientists in South Carolina did an experiment. First, they placed an amount of Salmonella on three surfaces; wood, tile (瓦片), and carpet. They placed a piece of bread and a piece of bologna（大腊肠） on each surface for 5,30, or 60 seconds. After just 5 seconds, both the bread and the bologna picked up enough bacteria to make you sick.

     So forget the 5-second rule. If your toast drops on the floor, throw it away and get another piece of clean toast. This time, be careful not to drop it!

    1. In which part of a newspaper can you most probably find this passage?

    A. Culture B. Health C. Advertisement D. Technology

    2.After dropping a piece of toast , a person who follows the “5-second rule”will

    A. throw away dirty toast immediately and go away

    B. pick up the toast as quickly as possible and eat it

    C. eat the toast within 5 seconds and feel pleased

    D. get another piece of clean toast quickly and eat it

    3. The scientists in South Carolina did the experiment to

    A.see how quickly bacteria can pollute food

    B. show that the 5-second rule a correct

    C. see how harmful bacteria are to people’ health

    D. show that bacteria grow at different speeds on different foods

    4. What’s the writer’s attitude to the “5-second rule”?

    A. Positive B. Negative C. Neutral (中立) D. Cautious (谨慎)

    One kind of female butterfly mates only once in its life -- and then closes its wings to avoid "harassment" when pursued by persistent and unwanted males, a Japanese researcher said.

    Observations of the Small Copper Butterfly, a colourful orange and black butterfly, showed that some females closed their wings when males flew by, but only when they were males of their own species, said Jun-Ya Ide, an associate professor at Kurume Institute of Technology in Fukuoka, western Japan.

    "When we looked into why, the males were courting the females. They do this very stubbornly, so the females sometimes try to get away -- or prefer to stay unobserved," he added.

    Ide and his colleagues brought a model of a male butterfly near the females to test their reactions and found that young females that had yet to mate kept their wings open, but those that had already mated closed them.

    Not only can the persistent attentions of unwanted suitors harm the delicate females, fleeing from them -- with the male often in pursuit -- uses up strength and can even shorten their lives, he added.

    "Closing their wings makes them less visible, helping them avoid communication with their own species. We figured they were trying to avoid harassment by males," Ide said.

    59.What does the word “harassment”mean in the paragraph？

    A.sexual invasion   B.embarassment  C.attack  D.threat

    60.Why some some females closed their wings when males flew by？

    A.because the female butterfly mates only once in its life.

    B. because they close their wings to avoid "harassment" when pursued by persistent and unwanted males.

    C. because they don’t like the male butterfly at all.

    D. because they are afraid of the male butterfly.

    61.According the the passage, which is correct?

    A.The females closed their wings when males flew by.

    B.The female butterfly mates only once in its life.

    C. Only the model of a male butterfly can make the young female butterflies to keep their wings open.

    D. Not only can the persistent attentions of wanted suitors harm the delicate females, fleeing from them -- with the male often in pursuit -- uses up strength and can even shorten their lives.
