Adult butterflies use their senses of sight, touch, hearing, smell, and taste to survive in the world, find food and mates, lay eggs in an appropriate place, migrate, and avoid hungry predators.

Sight

Butterflies have large, compound (multifaceted) eyes, which allow them to see in all directions without turning their heads. Like most insects, butterflies are very nearsighted, so they are more attracted to a large stand of flowers rather than individual plants. Butterflies do not "see" colors such as red, green, and yellow, but sense polarized（偏振的） light, which indicates the direction the sun is shining, as well as ultraviolet light, which is present on many flowers and guides butterflies to nectar （花蜜）sources.

Smell

Butterflies have a very well-developed sense of smell, but it's not in their nose (since they don't have one). Sense receptors located in their antennae, feet, and many other parts of the body help butterflies find food (usually flower nectar), and mates (the female smells the male's pheromones).

Taste

Butterfly's feet have sense organs that can taste the sugar in nectar, letting the butterfly know if something is good to eat or not. Some females also taste host plants in order to find appropriate places to lay their eggs. Adult butterflies and moths feed using a proboscis, a long, coiled tube. Butterflies force blood into the tube to straighten it out, allowing them to feed. Butterflies get all their food from this tube.

Hearing

Butterflies don't have ears. Instead they "hear" sounds through their wings by sensing changes in sound vibrations.

Butterflies may possess senses we don't even know about yet because their anatomy is very different than ours, and therefore difficult to understand when perceived through our own human senses.

From the passage we can know that butterflies can see_____

  A. thing behind them               B. thing in the distance

  C. most bright colors               D. flower nectar from a distance

Butterflies can easily find food resources by using their______.

A. sense organs of sight and smell     B. sense organs of sight and taste

C. sense organs of smell and hearing   D. sense organs of smell and taste

How do butterflies feed themselves?

  A. by using their feet                B. by using a tube.

  C. by using sense receptors           D. by using their wings.

What is the passage mainly about?

  A. The food sources of butterflies.     B. The habits of butterflies.

  C. The unusual body of butterflies.     D. the sense of butterflies.

It’s always awkward when you meet someone from a different country．You never know whether to shake hands, bow or even whether to kiss on the cheek．But what if you were a dog?

If you are a dog owner, you must be familiar with how your dog says hello to you．Seconds after you arrive home, your dog jumps up on you．You come face to face with a tail-wagging, wildly excited ball of fur that can’t get enough of you．If you’re not happy with that, it will shower you with wet “kisses” perhaps ruining your best shirt．

Like humans, dogs have five senses: smell, touch, sight, hearing and taste．

Unlike humans, dogs use smell rather than sight to identify others around them．A dog’s sense of smell is thousands of times better than that of humans．Your dog can’t just tell what a human being smells like, but it can also tell the difference between different members of its human family by their smell．

They also greet each other this way, not eye to eye, but nose to nose．

To be precise, when they first meet each other, they start with a quick sniff of each other’s noses．Then they will go side to side, working their way towards the back end．

Dogs smell everything they can during a walk．They sniff grass, bushes, trees and signposts．By doing this, dogs know not only what they are looking at, but which other neighborhood dogs have been around lately．

So next time you see your dog sniffing the wrong end of another dog, don’t regard it as a bad habit．They are greeting each other．（295 words）

Telepathy: Mind-to-mind Contact
Telepathy is the ability to communicate without the use of the five senses (sight, hearing, touch, smell, taste). It’s an instinct (本能) which can be woken up in times of emergency or need. When we feel that something is happening or about to happen by instinct, we’re using resources within the unconscious mind. When the resources of two persons’ unconscious minds link together into the same frequency, we call it Telepathy.
We can either send or receive Telepathy. If you know who is calling before you answer the ringing phone, you are probably a good receiver. If you think of a person and he/she calls you, you are most likely to be better at sending.
You can easily put your abilities to the test. Think of somebody and will him or her to contact you. Be patient. The other person may not be a good receiver, but they should contact you much earlier than would normally be expected. Or whenever the phones rings, but try “feeling” who is contacting you. Don’t guess, but try to feel it with your mind. However, if neither of these work for you, that doesn’t mean that you have no ability of telepathy. As mentioned earlier, telepathy is most likely to turn up in case of emergency.
Telepathy dreams often contain telepathic messages. Two people may both dream of the other and find that their dreams had a clear connection. These people are probably linking to each other’s unconscious mind.
Telepathy & Relationships. The more people spend time together, the more likely they are to be able to link up to the other’s mind, specially when separated. There are two reasons for this. One is that they understand the other’s mind through time spent together； the other is that there is usually a strong desire to communicate. A mother will often sense that her child is in danger. This is due to the child’s eagerly wanting his or her mother, knowing that this person who would always want to be there for them, and the mother’s deep desire to protect her child from harm.
64. Telepathy turns up when we ____.
A. sense a close friend in danger              B. use the five senses together
C. recall things from our memory              D. think of a stranger
65. You’re better at sending than receiving Telepathy if you ____.
A. can feel your mom is in danger               B. receive a friend’s call as you wish
C. can tell who knocks at your door             D. dream of a friend dreaming of you
66. Which is not the way to help people gain Telepathy?
A. Help them have a strong desire to communicate.   B. Separate them all the time.
C. Help them link up their unconscious minds.       D. Let them spend much time together.
