the air. more and more of the small, furry creatures appear. within a few minutes, a whole river of bats is pouring out of the cave, and they keep coming, millions and millions of them.sound like a scary horror movie? believe it or not, this scene takes place every night, all summer long, at bracken cave in texas, where 20 million bats fly outside to feed on insects. “it is magical，” says jim kennedy of bat conservation international in austin texas. “it is one of the most majestic animal movements on the planet.”every march or april, mexican freetailed bats migrate up to 1，000 miles (1，609 kilometers) from their winter home in mexico to this cave, where they raise their young. soon after they arrive, each mother gives birth to one pup. as many as 500 baby bats live crammed into one square foot (30.48 cubic centimeters) of space, all those bodies create nice warm temperatures to keep them cozy and comfortable. if youve ever lost sight of your parents on a crowded playground, you may be wondering how mother bats recognize their children. they use their sense of smell to tell which pup is theirs when it is time for the babies to nurse.the cave, a quiet place in winter, is full with life all summerand not just with bat residents. bat waste soon covers the floor, providing food for tiny organisms(生物体) like bacteria and fungi(真菌). and then there are the bugs.when the adult bats leave the cave at night to feed, they are helping humans. they eat tons of insects in a single night, including many pests that eat farmers crops. and they get rid of mosquitoes, too.56in the first paragraph, the author _aprovides some information about bats bdescribes the movement of batscadvises the reader to watch bats dstresses the danger of bats in summer57which of the following is true about the bats?athey are well protected by farmers. bthey smell better than other animals.cthey benefit from some tiny organisms. dthey travel from mexico to america yearly.58from the second paragraph, we can know kennedys opinion of the bats flying in group is _amysterious bfrightful ccrazy denjoyablebin shanghais grand theater, a fashionable, mainly young audience applauds enthusiastically as guo yong takes center stage. he holds a large bushy tree branch with leaves. blowing on one of the leaves, he produces a sound like the singing of birds as he plays a traditional buyi folk song. some other musicians are also playing the traditional instruments from various ethnic groups in china.its the first time such music has ever been performed in the grand theater. but all this is the efforts of zhu zheqin, a cantoneseborn singer, who has made it her mission to help preserve chinas traditional ethnic music.in 2009, after being appointed a united nations development program ambassador, zhu traveled through some of chinas remotest regions in an attempt to document the traditional music of various minority groups. in the course of the fourmonth trip, she recorded more than a thousand songs. but she noticed that many of the best musicians were old, and some of the music was at risk of dying out.“i was shocked by the beauty of what i heardit was so good，” she says. “but it needed support. i hope to let people see the beauty of these things in the contemporary times.”so zhu decided to introduce some of the musicians to a wider audience. by doing this, she hopes to rekindle(点燃) the interest of the younger generation. “young people dont like this music much; they prefer pop music and love songs. they think these songs are something their grandma sings. this kind of repackaging gives young people a new door into their heritage.”zhu believes china needs to look again at its own roots. “china today is basically all western art; in our conservatories (音乐学院) western classical music is the top，” she says. “for china to really contribute to the world, we need to go on our own path. so what can represent china today？” the answer, she suggests, is to move from “made in china” to “created in china”59from the first paragraph, we learn that_athe audience are all young peoplebguo yong is playing the buyi folk musiccguo yong is the only minority performer in chinadtree branches make good musical instruments60which of the following is true of zhu zheqin?ashe teaches music in a conservatory.bshe is helping preserve chinese ethnic music.cshe works as an official in the united nations.dshes created all the music for the grand theater.61what is zhu zheqins idea about chinese traditional music?ait is completely out of date.bonly old musicians play it well.cit needs changes to attract young people.dit is quickly dying out.62what does zhu zheqin mean in the last paragraph?athe traditional music should be repackaged.bchinese conservatories shouldnt teach western music.cchina has contributed a lot to the western art.donly the things created in china can be symbols of china.cchengdu, sichuanher training as a ballet dancer has served tian yu well in her bid to be a top equestrian(骑手)“i have learned how to balance myself，” said the 16yearold.a member of the national youth equestrian team, tian won a bronze in the jumping challenge at a youth event of the international federation for equestrian sports in south korea in april.a month later, she won a gold in the jumping challenge at the international equestrian masters in the national stadium in beijing.tian is conspicuous (引人注意的) at events because there are not many woman equestrian athletes in the countrymany parents do not want their daughters, mostly only children, to get involved and the practice is not covered by any insurance.“to be an equestrian, a woman has to be strong, be patient and work harder than a male counterpart，” tian said.because of her studies at the beijing national day school, a staterun middle school, tian can only practice about twice a week after school. during summer and winter vacations, she practices in the jingcheng horse club in beijings daxing district every day, even on biting cold winter days. last winter, the skin on the back of her hands cracked and became infected because of the cold, but she did not stop training. even during the spring festival she only took one day off. training can be repetitious and boring, and each day tian has to ride between four and six horses.she became interested in horses at the age of four when she visited a horse club in a beijing suburb and with the help of a coach sat on a horse and rode. she started formal training at age eight.though she has rarely fallen, her worst accident was when she tumbled(翻动) while practicing on a course in hebei province. lying on the field, she lost consciousness for about 20 seconds and bloodied her right hand. when she came to, instead of crying she stood up without the help of her coach, ji yuping.“unlike other girls, tian is strongminded，” ji said.equestrian athletes in the country do not receive much education. but tian insists she should attend college and major in literature or english.despite frequent competitions, tian has distinguished herself as a top student.the principal of her school allows tian to finish her schoolwork and send it to teachers via the internet when she is away for a competition.“i like horse riding but wont make it my profession，” tian said.63which of the following statements is not true according to the passage?atian achieved a gold medal at the international equestrian masters.btian won a bronze in the jumping challenge in beijing.ctian has been interested in horses since the age of four.da woman equestrian should be strong, patient and hardworking.64what can we infer from the ninth paragraph?atian was badly hurt. btian lost consciousness.ctian is very strong and brave. dtians coach helped her.65what can we learn from the thirteenth paragraph?atians headmaster and teachers all support her.btian often hands in her homework by the internet.ctian finishes her homework by the internet.dtian cant finish her homework because of her competition.das a boy growing up in india，i had longed to travel abroad. i used to listen to the stories my father would tell me about his
