阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出最佳选项。

Get a reward for every bug you bring to live in new science museum exhibit.

In a city with trillions of American cockroaches(蟑螂), the Houston Museum of Natural Science has agreed to pay a quarter per bug-up to 1,000-as it seeks to populate a new insect exhibit alongside its Cockrell Butterfly Center.

Nancy Greig, the museum’s director insists the public payday for roaches isn’t just a marketing ploy(炒作).

“Absolutely, this wasn’t devised as a joke,” Greig said. “We needed more roaches for the exhibit, so I sent this message out to everyone in the museum asking people to bring them in. Well, someone decided to tell the press, and all hell has broken loose.”

“But we really do need cockroaches.”

“One might be forgiven for never considering how to catch a live cockroach. But it’s simple enough to fool them,” Greig said, “and even easier to catch them.” American cockroaches are the most common kind in Texas, measuring up to 2 inches long and invading homes.

Despite their less-than-attractive reputation, cockroaches actually aren’t that dirty. Greig even went so far as to call them “fastidious” saying they don’t enjoy rooting(用嘴拱食) in waste. They’re only dirty if, say, they used a sewer(下水道)line to gain access into a home.

The roaches collected by the museum will become part of a display in a new exhibit that showcases insects such as cockroaches, dung beetles and termites.

There’s more to like about roaches, too. They don’t bite, and they don’t carry diseases like a mosquito, so they’re generally safe to handle.

56.For what does the museum pay for cockroaches?

       A.For a marketing ploy.              B. It’s devised to make fun.

       C.People really need them.            D. For a new exhibit.

57.The underlined word “fastidious” probably means extremely ________.

       A.clean           B.dirty            C.unpleasant           D.fast  

58.What do we know about American roaches?

       A.It’s not easy for people in Houston to collect roaches.

       B.They all measure 2 inches and are often found in homes

       C.They don’t bite and they are free of disease.

       D.We have reasons to like them.

59.Which of the following can serve as the best title for the passage?

       A.The Houston Museum of Natural Science

       B.A new exhibit

       C.Quarters for cockroaches                       

       D.A cockroach is lovely

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。
D
The first MP4 player was born years ago. Soon many music fans were wondering how fantastic it is! If you have been into technology enough, perhaps you may have a knowledge of the MP4. If not, you do need to know something before buying one, even if you are familiar with MP3. MP3 is the CD-like disc with greater capacity. How about MP4? This small digital product will really enrich the joy from listening to music. You can even feel the “touch” of music to your soul!
Now, some similar digital products advertised as “MP4 player” are simply MP3 players, which do not play video and MPEG format and also lack other particular functions. These products confuse some buyers, as they may think the “MP4” players simply mean they can do more than MP3.
What is MP4?
It is a multimedia container. It is not only used to store digital audio and digital video streams, especially those of MPEG, but can also be used to store other data such as subtitles and pictures. As a most modern container format, it allows streaming over the Internet.
With the help of a piece of MP4 video equipment, you can change various programs such as MPEG to MP4, ASX to MP4, AVI to MP4 and so on, which can be done very quickly and easily without any effect on the sound quality. By installing DVD-MP4 software, you can transfer particular music from a DVD to an MP4 video file. It really excites your listening music experience.
Then, there is MP4 advanced and you can set your own collection of all the programs—TV shows, games, and music. You can even see movies which are still running in cinema. What else digital product could you possibly ask for?
【小题1】 It is suggested here that you should ______ before buying an MP4 player.

A.first be a music fanB.have a knowledge of MP4
C.get familiar with MP3D.buy a CD-like disc
【小题2】From the passage, we can see that MP4 is ______ MP3.
A.much bigger thanB.just as advanced as
C.not so particular asD.more functional than
【小题3】Which function of MP4 is NOT directly mentioned in this passage?
A.Storing digital audio and video streams.
B.Recording some movies in cinema.
C.Playing TV shows, games and movies.
D.Transferring particular music from a DVD.
【小题4】From the last sentence, it’s clear that the writer tries to tell us it is ______.
A.reasonable to buy other digital products
B.impossible to buy something else
C.a very wise choice to buy an MP4
D.an exciting experience to buy an MP3
