    Thomas Edison was one of ten said to be the greatest genius（天才） of his age. There are only a few men in all of the history, who have changed the lives of other men as much as the inventor of the first useful electric light. But Edison could never be happy only because someone said he was a genius. “There is no such thing as genius,” Edison said. He said that what people called genius was mostly hard work.

    But Edison was a dreamer as well as a worker. From his earliest days as a child he wondered about the secrets of nature. Nature, he often said, is full of secrets. He tried to understand them; then, he tried to learn what could usefully be done with them.

    Edison enjoyed thinking. He knew that most people will do almost anything instead of the difficult work of thinking, especially if they do not think very often. But he knew, too, that thinking can give men enjoyment and pleasure.

    Edison could not understand how anyone could be uninterested in life. As he loved to think, he also loved to work. On the day he became 75 years old, someone asked him what ideas he had about life. “Work,” he answered. “Discovering the secrets of nature and using them to make men happier.” He said he had enough inventions in his mind to give him another 100 years of work.

    1.Edison thought ________.

    A. he could be happy if he was a genius

    B. genius plays the most important part in one’s success

    C. hard work could do better than genius

    D. genius could do better than hard work

    2.In Edison’s opinion, ________.

    A. thinking can supply people with enjoyment and pleasure as well as help

    B. people’s success lies mostly in genius

    C. hard work is the second important thing in making people successful

    D. there are few secrets for him to discover later

    3.The last sentence in the passage most probably implies(暗示） ________.

    A. life is too short for Edison to invent more for human beings

    B. Edison made 100 inventions in his life

    C. Edison was able to live and work for 100 years

    D. people of his time were ready to give Edison another 100 years’ work

    The Internet has opened up a whole new online world for us to meet, chat and go where we’ve never been before．But just as in face-to-face communication, there are some rules of behavior that should be followed when on line. 1. Imagine how you’d feel if you were in the other person’s shoes.

    For anything you’re about to send：ask yourself, “Would I say this to the person’s face?” If the answer is no，rewrite and reread. 2. If someone in the chat room is rude to you, your instinct(本能) is to fire back in the same manner. But try not to do so. 3. If it was caused by a disagreement with another member, try to fix the situation by politely discussing it. Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room.

    4. Offer advice when asked by newcomers, as they may not be sure what to do or how to communicate. When someone makes a mistake, whether it’s a stupid question or all unnecessarily long answer, be kind about it. If it’s a small mistake, you may not need to say anything. Even if you feel strongly about it, think twice before saying anything. Having good manners yourself doesn’t give you license to correct everyone else. 5. At the same time, if you find you are wrong, be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended．

    It is not polite to ask others personal questions such as their age, sex and marital status. Unless you know the person very well, and you are both comfortable with sharing personal information, don’t ask such questions．

    A．The basic rule is simple：treat others in the same way you would want to be treated.

    B．Everyone was new to the network once.

    C．Repeat the process till you feel sure that you’d feel comfortable saying the words to the person’s face.

    D．It’s natural that there are some people who speak rudely or make mistakes online.

    E．When you send short messages to a person online, you must say something beautiful to hear.

    F．You should either ignore the person, or use your chat software to block their messages.

    G．If you do decide to tell someone about a mistake, point it out politely.

    Camels are large animals living in dry areas. There are two species of camels; the Arabian camel with a single hump(驼背) from the dry desert areas of West Asia, and the Bactrian camel with two humps from Central and East Asia. Camels are over 7 feet tall and weigh over 1,600 pounds. They will live up to 40 to 50 years. Most camels are domesticated(驯化) and fed by people. Camels are plant-eaters．

    Camels are very strong animals with wide, padded feet. They have thick leathery pads on their knees and chest. Camels have nostrils(鼻孔) that can open and close, protecting them from the desert environment. Bushy eyebrows and two rows of long eyelashes protect their eyes from sand. Their mouth is extremely tough, allowing camels to eat thorny(带刺的) desert plants. Their widened feet help them move without sinking into the sand. Their thick coats reflect sunlight, and also protect them from the intense heat from desert sand. Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground.

    Camels can go without food and water for 3 to 4 days. They do not store water in their humps as is commonly believed．The humps are actually a container of fat. Camels are incredibly well-adapted to their environment. When conditions heat up, camels can increase their own body temperature, which prevents sweating and therefore water loss. They may not sweat at all during the day.

    Camels are sometimes called “ships of the desert” because people ride them around the hot, dry deserts of the world. However, the number of camels is becoming smaller for various reasons.

    1.According to the passage, camels usually live in ________.

    A. Asia B. Africa

    C. America D. Australia

    2.Paragraph 2 is mainly about ________.

    A. camels are useful animals

    B. camels are clever animals

    C. camels’ body structure and function

    D. camels’ characteristics and habits

    3.The reason why camels lose little water in deserts is that they ________.

    A. get water from green foods

    B. can adjust their temperature

    C. store enough water in the humps

    D. can manage without water

    4.What will the author probably talk about following the last paragraph?

    A. Ways to protect camels.

    B. Habitats of camels.

    C. Reasons for raising camels.

    D. Functions of camels.
