Some inventions are so useful, but seem so simple, that we wonder why no one thought of them long ago. Post-it Notes, the pieces of paper that you can fasten almost anywhere and then remove without leaving any sign that they were there, are an example of such an invention.
  Post-it Notes were invented about twenty years ago by Art Fry, a scientist at 3M Corporation. The idea for the product came from a frustrating experience he often had while singing in his church choir. Fry used pieces of paper as bookmarks to mark the places in his book of songs, but these bookmarks were always falling out. He knew he needed a bookmark that would stay where he put it, but that he could remove without damaging the pages.
  Around that time, Fry heard about a new adhesive (粘合剂) that a workmate, Dr. Spence Silver, had created. This adhesive was special because it was sticky, but not too sticky. It was strong enough to hold papers together, but weak enough to not tear the paper when it was removed. Fry saw that the new adhesive could help solve his bookmark problem. One morning, Fry put some of the adhesive on the edge of a piece of paper. Just as he hoped, it made a perfect bookmark.
A short time later, Fry realized that his new invention had even more uses than being a great bookmark. He came to this realization when he wrote a note on one of his new "bookmarks" and attached it to a report he was going to give to a workmate. Soon, co-workers were asking Fry for more samples of his invention so that they could use the new type of notes themselves.
  Fry and some other people at 3M believed so much in the new product that they persuaded the company to give away thousands of the "sticky pieces of paper" for trial use(试用). When some salespeople at 3M went to offices and showed workers just how helpful the new type of notes could be, they immediately received many orders. As more and more people discovered how useful Post-it Notes could be, the product took off.
小题1:The invention of Post-it Notes showed that Art Fry________ .
A.had a lot of knowledge
B.was very hard-working
C.was good at creative thinking
D.loved his job in the church
小题2: In what way did Dr. Spence help Art Fry?
A.They worked together and often discussed science.
B.His invention of a special adhesive made Art's invention possible.
C.He advised 3M Corporation to give away lots of Post-it Notes for trial use.
D.He worked together with Art by providing the new adhesive for Art.
小题3: The underlined phrase "took off" means_______ .
A.started to leave the groundB.disappeared from the market
C.had even more usesD.became popular very quickly
小题4:The biggest advantage of Post-it Notes is_______.
A.it can stay anywhere and leave no sign when removed  
B.it is very cheap to use  
C.it is good to write notes on
D.it is very thin and beautiful

阅读短文,并做后面的题目,从各题A、B、C、D中选出能回答所提问题或完成所给句子的最佳答案。

  I'm confused these days.We are taught at home and at school that using violence(暴力)is the least civilized(文明的)way to solve problems.For example, last week I thought about hitting my friend for winning a beautiful shell while we were playing at the beach.I talked with him instead and we came to an agreement.If two adults had a disagreement, and if they used violence towards each other in order to win, is it all right?

  When two countries disagree, they often fight a war.Why is using violence not okay at home, at school, or in your country but okay between countries? So many people have been killed because of wars, not only soldiers but ordinary people, even small children and babies.And refugees(难民)exist, too.

  A war is a great violence, like two people fighting over a shell, just much bigger.Adults say they are fighting wars in order to solve problems and make peace.But can you really “make peace” by killing so many people? I don't think bombs(炸弹)can reach people's hearts and change them.Bombs can't create love and caring, and that's what we need in the world.Why do adults use violence so quickly? Why can't they use their wisdom(智慧)and talk it over?

  Adults might say that things are not that easy.But they are the ones that teach us to be kind, not to hurt people, and not to kill.Why don't they act as what they say?

[  ]

A.

B.

Love and care for each other.

Don't use violence so quickly.

Stop using bombs in wars.
