Richard Rudd was so forgetful that he sometimes forgot what he was talking about in the middle of a sentence. His wife had to always remind him about his appointments, is classes-even his meals! Since Rudd was a professor at a wee-known university, his forgetfulness often caused him a lot of trouble. It wasn’t that he was unintelligent. He was just very, very absent-minded.
One hot summer day, Professor Rudd decided to take his children to the beach. The seaside town he planned to visit was about a three-hour train ride away. To make the trip more interesting for his young children, he kept the name of the town a secret. Unfortunately, by the time Rudd had arrived at the train station, the poor forgetful man had forgotten the name of the town Luckily, a friend of his happened to be in the station. He offered to take care of the children while Rudd went back home to find out where he was going.
The professor’s wife was surprised to see him again so soon, but she was amused when she heard what was the matter. She distrusted his memory, so she wrote the name of the town on a piece of paper.

阅读下面短文,从每小题所给的四个选项中,选出一个最佳答案。
Cicadas(蝉) that appear from underground only once every 17-years are making big news in the US. The first signs are little holes in parks and fields. Then, big, red-eyed bugs start crawling(爬) out. Thousands of these black, winged insects cover sidewalks, mailboxes, tree branches, and roofs across certain areas of America.
Many insect lovers are going out to parks to observe what scientists believe to be the largest emergence of an insect group in history. But you don't have to live in the US to study the amazing bugs that inhabit our world. Summer is coming. With it come warm days and many chances to have a look at bugs. These creatures keep our ecosystems(生态系统) running and make up the majority of our planet's population!
Many people use the words “bugs” and “insects” to refer to anything with more than four legs. But an insect actually has six legs, a three-part body, and an exoskeleton, which is a skeleton(骨骼) on the outside of its body. Ants, butterflies and cicadas are all insects.
Insects keep our environment working by recycling garbage and dead plants. They serve as food for animals, and pollinate(授粉) plants. Doctors have even found ways of using them in medical treatments to help sick people.
Tracking down insects to watch can be as simple as going to your local park to look for ants, or as complicated as walking out into the woods to find rare beetles(甲虫) Just look carefully and be patient, and something will turn up.
If you want to do more than just watch, you can collect bugs. Take along a butterfly net to catch flying insects and tweezers(镊子) to pick up bugs. Take clean, empty food jars with small air holes poked(戳) in the lids, so you can keep the bugs for a little while, perhaps overnight.
Great creatures to look out for during summer include beetles, butterflies and dragonflies(蜻蜓).However, creatures to watch but not disturb are spiders(蜘蛛) , bees, wasps(黄蜂) , and centipedes(蜈蚣).All of them may leave a painful bite if you touch them and some bites can be dangerous.
When handling and watching the insects you find, remember: they may look different from us, but they have many of the same feelings, such as fear and pain. Have a look, but no poking or pinching(捏) , please!
