“Where is Papa going with that ax (斧子)?” said Fern to her mother as they were setting the table for breakfast.

“Out to the hoghouse,” replied Mrs. Arable. “Some pigs were born last night.”

“I don’t see why he needs an ax,” continued Fern, who was only eight.

“Well,” said her mother, “one of the pigs is a runt (发育不良的小动物). It’s very small and weak. So your father has decided to do away with it.”

“Do away with it?” shouted Fern. “You mean kill it?”

“Don’t shout, Fern!” she said. “Your father is right. The pig would probably die anyway.”

Fern pushed a chair out of the way and ran outdoors. The grass was wet and the earth smelled springtime. Fern’s shoes were wetting by the time she caught up with her father.

“Please don’t kill it! It’s unfair,” she said.

Mr. Arable stopped.

“Fern,” he said gently, “you will have to learn to control yourself.”

“This is a matter of life and death, and you talk about controlling myself.” Tears ran down her cheeks and she took hold of the ax and tried to pull it out of her father’s hand.

“Fern,” said Mr. Arable, “I know more about raising a group of pigs than you do. A weak pig makes trouble.”

“But it’s unfair,” cried Fern. “The pig couldn’t help being born small. If I had been very small at birth, would you have killed me?”

Mr. Arable smiled. “Certainly not,” he said, looking down at his daughter with love. “But this is different. It’s a pig.”

“There is no difference,” replied Fern.

1.What puzzled Fern at the beginning?

A.Why her father refused to eat breakfast.     B.If the hoghouse was big enough for many pigs.

C.How pigs were born at night.               D.What his father would do with an ax.

2.Why couldn’t Fern control herself?

A.Because she was afraid of killing a pig.        B.Because the pig was treated unfairly.

C.Because she loved pet pigs very much.       D.Because her father was rude to her.

3.According to the passage, Fern’s father thought that ______.

A.it was natural for pigs to be born small       B.he couldn’t afford to have so many pigs

C.a weak pig needed more attention          D.he was troubled by raising a weak pig

4.It can be inferred from the passage that Fern was _________.

A.kind-hearted       B.brave             C.shy              D.patient

   Most of us think that when we step under a shower we’re getting clean.We are, but we’re also giving a home to lots of tiny little creatures we didn’t even know about.

   A showerhead carries thousands of bacteria (细菌) called Mycobacterium.These can cause problems like coughs and tiredness, and a general feeling of poorliness (身体不舒服).When you turn on the water, the bacteria go from the showerhead onto and into your body.

   This is a finding of Norman R.Pace and his team at the University of Colorado, in the US.The scientists investigated bacteria in all kinds of human environment, including showers.

   Pace's team looked at 45 showerheads in nine American cities.They discovered that 30 percent of them had large amounts of flying Mycobacterium.

   But Pace said that they pose few threats to the health.Only those with a frail (脆弱的) immune (免疫的) system might need to worry.

   He told the New York Times that the bactertia are not as unpleasant as might be thought.He said that having a shower is no more dangerous than anything else we do in the morning.

   But for those who feel sick about the idea of all those microorganisms (微生物), he had some advice.

   Let the water run for 30 seconds before getting into the shower.Why? The number of bacteria is smaller than when the water is just turned on.If that seems like a waste of water, he added that you could also change your showerhead every few months.

   But Pace had good news too.He has also been testing the air in US subways.Apart from iron particles (粒子), which are ground off the track by the wheels of trains, subway air is fresh.The reason is that a train’s movement pumps fresh outdoor air into the tunnels(隧道).

   Pace explained that he wanted to understand the natural microbial(微生物的) environments of public places.This kind of knowledge might help detect the microbes to be used in a bioterrorist (生物恐怖分子) attack.

49.According to the finding of Norman R.Pace, after taking a shower, we might ______.

       A.get much dirtier                 B.be covered by bacteria

       C.get a frail immune system      D.catch a cough or feel tired

50.Pace’s research into showers shows that ______.

       A.there is no reason to fear microorganism

       B.shower water contains much less bacteria after being left to run for 30 second

       C.having a shower in the morning is more dangerous than at other time

       D.of 45 showerheads surveyed in nine cities, 30 carried large amounts of Mycobacterium

51.According to the research of Pace’s team, which of the following contributes to fresh air in US subways?

       A.Train wheels.                B.Iron particles.

       C.The movement of the trains. D.Air conditioners on the trains.

52.The word “detect” in the last paragraph probably means “______”.

       A.to discover      B.to protect        C.to make   D.to prevent
