B
A mosquito is an insect that is found all over the world．There are thousands of different kinds of mosquitoes in many different sizes and colors．The female mosquito needs blood from vertebrates （脊椎动物）to lay eggs and produce more mosquitoes．She has a special part of her mouth that she uses to suck blood，and her saliva（spit）thins the blood so she can drink it．In fact．It’s the mosquito’s saliva that makes the bites itch（痒）!
A person who gets bitten by a mosquito will notice a wheal，which is a bump around the bite．
The wheal will be round，with pink or red around the edge and white in the middle．The wheal will
itch a lot．Soon the wheal will disappear, but the itch will stay．
If you’ve been bitten by a mosquito，wash the bite with soap and water．Put on some calamine lotion to help stop the itching，or an adult can find an anti-itch cream at the drugstore for you．Placing an ice pack on the bite may also help．Tell an adult you’ve been bitten by a mosquito，especially if you live in the eastern United States．But if you develop an allergic reaction and feel dizzy or sick，tell a doctor immediately．He can treat allergic reactions with sole medicine．
The best way to avoid mosquito bites is to wear an insect repellent．Repellents that include one of these ingredients are best：BEET and lemon eucalyptus．Ask a parent to help you apply them．
Since mosquitoes lay their eggs in water，it’s also a good idea to empty out buckets，flower pots，toys and other things in your yard that may have collected water during a rainstorm．And when it’s possible，you’d better wear long-sleeved shirts and long pants to keep mosquitoes away from your skin．
60．What makes you itch after the mosquitoes’bites?
A．A bump around the bite． B．The mosquito’s saliva．
C．Some calamine lotion． D．An antic-itch cream．
61．The underlined word“wheal”（Paragraph 2）is closest in meaning to________．
A．a small mouth that can prevent an insect
B．a small mark after an insect bite that usually itches
C．an illness after an insect bite that always spreads nearby
D．an illness from mosquitoes’ bites and other pollution diseases
62．Which of the following is TRUE according to this passage?
A．There are thousands of mosquitoes in the same sizes and colors．
B．The wheal will never disappear forever but the itch will disappear soon．
C．Ask a doctor for some medicine if you develop an allergic reaction for the bite．
D．Ask a parent for an insect repellent if you see mosquitoes laying their eggs in water．

A year ago, Dave Fuss and his wife,Cerrie,lost their jobs… Then Dave and Gerrie received a timely gift——＄7，000，a legacy (遗产) from their neighbors Ish and Arlene Hatch, Dave hadn’t expected that the Hatches would leave him or Gerrie anything but memories after they died. But the Fusses weren't the only folks in Alto and the neighboring town of Lowell to receive unexpected gifts from the Hatches.
Neighbors helping neighbors-that was Ish and Arlene Hatch's story.
After their marriage, Ish and Arlene moved to Lowell. There they lived in the farmhouse. Ish farmed the surrounding 300 acres, while Arlene taught English and math at the junior high school. For years after he retired from cattle farm in Lowell,he spent time with friends talking about world events or the price of grain, but often they talked about their town-about poor families trying to pay medical bills, pay for college. At sundown, Ish would walk back home, full of neighborhood news for his wife.
Through the years, the Hatches discreetly paid for local children to attend summer camp when their parents couldn't afford it, and they made certain no child went without warm clothing when winter came to the farmlands south of the Grand River.
Several years ago, somebody planted a sign in front of the old farmhouse that read "Honk If You Wish Ish Hatch a Happy 90th Birthday." So many passing cars blew their horns that for three nights, Ish and Arlene had a hard time sleeping.
The story of Ish and Arlene Hatch-memories of the Depression, service in the war, hard work, and frugal living-seemed much the same as the stories of millions of other Americans of their generation.

A. Ish and Arlene Hatch B． Checks games after Couple’s Death
