Three Boys and a Dad
Brad closed the door slowly as Sue left home to visit her mother. Expecting a whole day to relax, he was thinking whether to read the newspaper or watch his favourite TV talk show on his first day off in months. “This will be like a walk in the park.” he’d told his wife. “I’ll look after the kids, and you can go visit your mom.”
Things started well, but just after eight o’clock, his three little “good kids”---Mike, Randy, and Alex --- came down the stairs in their night clothes and shouted “breakfast, daddy.” When food had not appeared on within thirty seconds, Randy began using his spoon on Alex’s head as if it were a drum. Alex started to shout loudly in time to the beat(节拍) . Mike chanted “Where’s my toast, where’s my toast” in the background. Brad realized his newspaper would have to wait for a few seconds.
Life became worse after breakfast. Mike wore Randy’s underwear on his head. Randy locked himself in the bathroom, while Alex shouted again because he was going to wet his pants. Nobody could find clean socks, although they were before their eyes. Someone named “Not me” had spilled a whole glass of orange juice into the basket of clean clothes. Brad knew the talk show had already started.
By ten o’clock, things were out of control. Alex was wondering why the fish in the fish bowl refused his bread and butter. Mike was trying to show off his talent by decorating kitchen wall with his color pencils. Randy, thankfully, appeared to be reading quietly in the sitting room, but closer examination showed that he was eating apple jam straight from the bottle with his hands. Brad realized that the talk show was over and reading would be impossible.
At exactly 11:17, Brad called the daycare center(日托所).“I suddenly have to go into work and my wife is away. Can I bring the boys over in a few minutes?” The answer was obviously “yes” because Brad was smiling.
1.When his wife left home, Brad expected___________.
A. go out for a walk in the park
B. watch TV talk show with his children
C. enjoy his first day off the work.
D. read the newspaper to his children
2.Which of the following did Randy do?
A. Drawing on the wall B. Eating apple jam
C. Feeding the fish D. Reading in a room
3.Why did Brad ask the daycare center for help?
A. Because he wanted to clean his house.
B. Because he suddenly had to go to his office
C. Because he found it hard to manage his boys
D. Because he had to take his wife back home.
4.The text is developed ____________.

Some unwelcome visitors from North America have been turning up in the waters off the coast of Great Britain.
North American lobsters (龙虾) have been found in the North Sea (between Great Britain and Northwest Europe), far from their own habitat. The lobsters usually live along the eastern coast of Canada and the United States.
It is impossible that the lobsters could have made the 5,600-kilometre journey on their own. They were probably brought to Britain and then got away from containers. Some of the lobsters that were caught had elastic bands (松紧带) holding their legs shut, like lobsters that are kept in containers in stores or restaurants.
Many may have been “set free” from some ships passing through the area. Sometimes passengers order a live lobster from a tank in the dining room and then ask the waiter to throw it overboard instead of cooking it.
According to official records, 26 North American lobsters have been caught in waters off Great Britain since 1988. However, it is believed many more have been found but not reported.
It is against the law to let North American lobsters come into British waters. If they settle down in European waters, it would be bad for the local lobsters. The
two live in the same place and eat the same food. But North American lobsters are larger, stronger and more aggressive (好斗的) than European lobsters, and they produce young more quickly.
As a result, they could take food and space away from the local lobsters, and from other types of shellfish that live in the same area. These lobsters may also carry diseases that could harm the local lobsters.
1.Those unwelcome lobsters _____.
A. could travel 5,600 km a day on their own
B. used to live in waters off Great Britain
C. would soon disappear in British waters
D. might have escaped on the way to Britain
2.What can we learn about European lobsters?
A. They are growing too fast to be kept under control.
B. Shellfish often take away their food and space.
C. They are easily harmed by North American lobsters.
D. People become ill easily if they eat these lobsters.
3.The author's purpose of writing the text is most likely to _____.
A. discuss B. report
C. advertise D. introduce

According to a team of researchers, an animals' ability to perceive(感知)time is linked to their pace of life.
"Our results lend support to the importance of time perception in animals where the ability to
perceive time in a very short time may be the difference between life and death for fast moving
creatures." commented lead author Kevin Healy from Trinity College Dublin.
The study was done with a variety of animals using a phenomenon based on the maximum speed of flashes of light an individual can see before the light source is seen as constant. Dogs, for example, have eyes with a refresh rate higher than humans.
One example of this phenomenon at work, the authors say, is the housefly and its ability to avoid being hit. The research showed flies "observe motion in a shorter time than our own eyes can achieve," which allows them to avoid being hit.
Professor Graeme Ruxton of the University of St Andrews in Scotland, who worked jointly(共同地) on the research project, said in a statement, "Having eyes that send updates to the brain at much higher frequencies than our eyes do is of no value if the brain cannot process that information equally quickly. Thus, this work highlights the impressive abilities of even the smallest animal brains. Flies might not be deep thinkers, but they can make good decisions very quickly."
In comparison the tiger beetle(虎甲虫)runs faster than its eyes can keep up, basically becoming blind, which requires it to stop periodically to re-evaluate its prey's(猎物)position.
Our results suggest that time perception offers an as yet unstudied dimension along which
animals can specialize and there is considerable range to study this system in more detail.
1.What is the research mentioned in the passage mainly about?
A. Pace of life of animals. B. Time perception of animals.
C. Lifetime of small animals. D. Impressive abilities of animals.
2.Why can houseflies avoid being hit?
A. They can think very deeply before they act.
B. They can fly much faster than their eyes can keep up.
C. They can process the information as quickly as they receive it.
D. They can send information to brain more quickly than to their eyes.
3.What will a tiger beetle have to do to catch a moving prey?
A. Try to run as fast as it can. B. Prevent itself from becoming blind.
C. Slow down to gain its time perception. D. Stop occasionally to spot the prey again.

In the top 10 of unpleasant sounds, a crying baby ranks very high. It instantly makes a key part of your brain called the amygdale (杏仁孔) active, which, among other things, acts as a sort of radar for emotional threats. So why would babies need to cause this sort of urgent reaction? To get you to respond and fast to ensure their survival.
Babies can’t fend for themselves. They are like chicks in their parents’ nest, depending on others to keep them warm, fed and safe. Like chicks, their cries signal driving necessities such as a need for food or protection from danger. But human babies can also convey a range of other needs with cries.
Human babies are also highly social, and are interested in engaging in a dialogue with their caregivers. So they are equally attentive to their parents’ signals: the messages conveyed by the body language of their caregivers — how the parent smells, touches, holds, rocks, as well as their tone of voice. In relaxed moments with the parent, they soon discover how smiling at an attentive adult tends to cause a positive response in return.
On the other hand, these early attempts at communication between the parent and child can be very hit-and-miss. In the first few weeks, most babies cry for about two hours a day. When the parent and baby aren’t “getting” each other, crying can increase. In particular, long difficulties with breast-feeding can lead to a pattern of “established firmly” crying behavior.
Crying is a signal that can mean many different things. The lessons that are learned from these early experiences are highly significant for individual lives, but collectively they also have a great effect on our culture.
1.According to the first paragraph, what is babies’ purpose of crying?
A. To change their comfortable situation at the present time.
B. To communicate with parents and learn to use body language.
C. To make caregivers fast respond to guarantee their survival.
D. To get something that they want to get as quickly as possible.
2.What does the underlined phrase “fend for” in Para.2 mean?
A. feed B. look after
C. support D. make up
3.Why do human babies pay attention to their parents’ signals?
A. Because they hope to get more from their parents.
B. Because they want to convey messages to their parents.
C. Because they need to learn from their parents how to communicate.
D. Because they are social and interested in talking with their parents.
4.What is the best title of the text?
A. Cry or Don’t Cry? B. Why Do Babies Cry?
C. How to Express Babies’ Feelings? D. Human Babies Are Similar to Chicks’?
