Many people go to school for an education. They learn languages, history, geography, physics, chemistry and mathematics. Others go to school to learn a skill so that they can make a living. School education is very important and useful. Yet no one can learn everything from school. A teacher，no matter how much he knows, cannot teach his students everything they want to know. The teacher’s job is to show his students how to learn. He teaches them how to read and how to think. So much more is to be learned outside school by the students themselves.
It is always more important to study by oneself than to memorize some facts or a formula(公式). It is actually quite easy to learn a certain fact in history or a formula in maths. But it is very difficult to use a formula in working out a maths problem. Great scientists, such as Einstein, Newton and Galileo didn’t get everything from school. But they were all so successful. They invented so many things for mankind. The reason for their success is that they worked hard all their lives, wasting not a single moment. They would ask many questions as they read and they did thousands of experiments.
Above all, they knew how to use their brains.
1.The subject which is not spoken of in the article is _____
A. maths B. history
C. psychology D. physics
2.The teacher’s job is to teach ___________.
A. everything the students want to know
B. the students everything that they know
C. the students some facts of formulas
D. the students how to learn
3.Einstein, Newton and Galileo did so many things for mankind because_____.
A. they learned a lot at school.
B. they knew how to learn new things outside class by themselves.
C. they were so useful.
D. they went to college and learned form professors.
4.From the passage we know that if we want to be successful , we should _______.
A. only learn more at school
B. needn’t go to school
C. only learn science subjects
D. learn to learn at school and learn more outside school

Meet big brother Blue and his sisters Meadow and Little Willow,a family of three blind cats that just got adopted by the family Catherine Magno.

Catherine was worried about the special needs of her new pet friends:“My worry was that it's going to not only be challenging but also require a lot of adjustments on my part,”but apparently it wasn't that much different.“The only adjustment early on was keeping everything where it was but they are soon adaptive（适应的）.”And as she wonderfully put it:“Blind pets see through their hearts."

Many of us remember being in awe(敬畏) when we saw cloned dinosaurs running wild in the film Jurassic Park. And the idea of using technology to revive(恢复) extinct species has long fascinated not only writers and directors, but scientists as well.
According to The Telegraph, woolly mammoths(长毛猛犸象), which featured in the popular Ice Age animated movie series, “may walk the earth once more” now that scientists have taken another step toward realizing a long-held dream—recreating their DNA.
Mammoths became extinct around 10,000 years ago. However, since the discovery of near-perfect preserved remains in Arctic permafrost(北极冻土带) in May 2013, a variety of research studies have been carried out since.
Geneticists from Harvard University analyzed DNA from the remains, looking for genes which separated mammoths from elephants, such as hairiness and ear size. They then used the results to reproduce exact copies of 14 mammoth genes. “It is the first time that mammoth genes have been alive—although so far it has only been done in the lab,” George Church, lead researcher of the project, told the Sunday Times.
Church then used a new technique which allows scientists to edit DNA carefully, replacing sections of elephant DNA with the mammoth genes. So “we now have functioning elephant cells with mammoth DNA in them,” he said.
However, Church ruled out the possibility of bringing the mammoths back to life via cloning from frozen remains. He said he “preferred to focus on rebuilding the full mammoth genome(基因组) by analyzing DNA from preserved remains and putting it into the cells of its closest living relative – the Asian elephant,” reported The Telegraph.
Church argued that the return of the woolly mammoth—or rather, the return of something very similar—could help bring back fragile(脆弱的) ecosystems. However, some scientists believe that bringing back the mammoth would be unethical.
Professor Alex Greenwood, an expert on ancient DNA, said: “We may face the extinction of African and Asian elephants. Why bring back another elephant from extinction when we cannot even keep the ones that are not extinct around?” he told the Sunday Times. “What is the message? We can be as irresponsible with the environment as we want. Then we’ll just clone things back?”
“Money would be better spent focusing on conserving what we do have than spending it on an animal that has been extinct for thousands of years,” he said.
1.We can learn from the article that ______.
A. cloned mammoths followed cloned dinosaurs to get revived
B. the technology to revive mammoth genes is already mature
C. George Church and his colleagues tried to reproduce mammoth DNA
D. Church and his team managed to list all the genes that separate mammoths from elephants
2.According to Church, what is the significance of his study?
A. It could help prevent the extinction of the Asian elephant.
B. It could help people better tell elephant DNA from mammoth genes.
C. It could help bring back some extinct species and save fragile ecosystems.
D. It could help bring mammoths back to life via cloning from frozen remains.
3.The underlined word “unethical” in Paragraph 7 is closest in meaning to ______.
A. unacceptable B. misled
C. impractical D. illegal
4.According to the article, Professor Alex Greenwood believes that _______.
A. there is no need to worry about the extinction of African and Asian elephants at present
B. it’s necessary to bring back species that are beneficial to human beings from extinction
C. the return of the woolly mammoth would help to balance ecosystems
D. it’s more important to protect present species than to bring back extinct ones

My grandfather Andy Anderson is 99. His life story is one for the big screen -- he met my grandmother on a Saturday, and they married on the following Saturday. They stayed together until my grandma died 67 years later.Without going to college, Andy worked his way to the top. He became the manager of the dairy department of Safeway. He earned the nickname Mr. Cheese, which finally turned into Grandpa Cheese among the family. He has taught me a lot and here' s what he has learned in his 99 years.
Always keep a good sense of humor. Find something humorous in every single situation. Never be too good to start at the bottom. Exercise every day, even when you don' t feel like it. Don't spend more money than you make. Save your money now and spend it later.
You must be able to forgive, even if it' s difficult to do. Love is not always easy; sometimes you have to work at it. Your family is the most precious thing you will ever have in life.
If you are faced with a problem, don' t delay（延误）trying to solve it. But if there's no way to solve it, you have to forget about it. Make sure you' re doing what you love; don't be afraid to follow those dreams you have for yourself.
School education is important, but not necessary. Life can be an education in itself. Explore your world and stay curious; Having a bad job is better than having no job at all; Try not to take yourself so seriously. Don't ever be afraid to be your true self. Your life is delicate(易受损的), and if you fail to take care of yourself properly, you'11 spoil.Life is a gift that you must unwrap. It' s up to you to determine if what's inside will lead you to happiness or frustration(挫折). You have the power to make that decision for yourself.
All of above come from Grandpa Cheese. If you're wondering what Grandpa Cheese is up to these days, he' s riding his motorized scooter (踏板车) around Benicia, CA, and "planning on what I'm going to do when I start to get old," he says.

B. Whether life will be happy or miserable（悲惨的）is decided by yourself.
C. School education helps develop curiosity（好奇）about the world.
