delicious in addition to a kind of natural sugar. most people, and many animals, like eating it. however, the only way for them to get that honey is to find a wild bees nest (巢) and take the honey from it. often, these nests are high up in trees, and it is difficult to find them. in parts of africa, though, people and animals looking for honey have a strange and unexpected helper-a little bird called a honey guide. the honey guide does not actually like honey, but it does like the wax in the beehives (蜂房). the little bird cannot reach this wax, which is deep inside the bees nest. so, when it finds a suitable nest, it looks for someone to help it. the honey guide gives a loud cry that attracts the attention of both passing animals and people. once it has their attention, it flies through the forest, waiting from time to time for the curious animal or person as it leads them to the nest. when they finally arrive at the nest, the follower reaches in to get the delicious honey as the bird patiently waits and watches. some of the honey, and the wax, always falls to the ground, and this is when the honey guide takes its share. scientists do not know why the honey guide likes eating the wax, but it is very determined in its efforts to get it. the birds seem to be able to smell wax from a long distance away. they will quickly arrive whenever a beekeeper is taking honey from his beehives, and will even enter churches when beeswax candles are being lit.1. why is it difficult to find a wild bees nest?a. its small in size. b. its hard to recognize.c. its covered with wax. d.

importance to get along with your teacher because it makes the time you spend in the classroom more pleasant.and yes, its good to get along with your teacher because, in general, its smart to learn

right open,” says evelyn vuko, a longtime teacher who writes an education column (专栏) called “teacher says” for the washington post newspaper.in fact, kids who get along with their teachers not only learn more, but theyre more comfortable asking questions and getting extra help. this makes it easier to understand new material and do your best on tests. when you have this kind of relationship with a teacher, he or she can be someone to turn to with problems, such as problems with learning or school life, such as bullying.as a kid in a primary or middle school, youre at a wonderful stage in your life. youre like a sponge (海绵), able to absorb lots of new and exciting information. on top of that, youre able to think about all this information in new ways. your teacher knows that, in most cases, is very excited to be the person whos giving you all that material and helping you make it. remember, teachers are people, too, and they feel great if youre open to what theyre teaching you. thats why they wanted to be teachers in the first place to teach!some kids may be able to learn in any situation, whether they like the teacher or not. but most kids are sensitive to the way they get along with the teacher, and if things arent going well, they wont learn as well and wont enjoy being in class.5. in the passage, the author mainly talks about _.a. how to get along well with othersb. how much

doing some exercises, according to scientists. they say that socializing and meeting with friends help increase levels of brown fat in the body which burns calories to produce heat. living in an exciting social environment was found to reduce fat in mices belly by half over four weeks, even if they ate more. us researchers say that social excitement aids weight loss by turning white fat into brown. white fat stores calories and makes us fatter, while brown burns energy to produce heat. turning white fat into brown is extremely difficult，normally requiring longterm stay in cold conditions or exciting part of the bodys nervous system. however, scientists from ohio state university now think that having a busy social life is an even more effective way of changing white fat into brown. the team came up with their theory by studying the effects of various living environments on mice. those, who lived alongside a greater number of mice, had more space and toys to excite themselves and then lost far more weight over the course of the study than their “couch potato” fellows. study author, dr matthew during, whose teams findings appear in the journal cell metabolism, said, “im still amazed at the degree of fat loss that occurs.” explaining how new technology had threatened face-to-face socializing, he added, “its not just a sedentary（久坐的）lifestyle and high calorie foods, but an increasing lack of social activities.” co-author dr lei cao said, “loneliness is a potential factor for cancer and death; its equal to cigarette smoking to a certain extent. social activities are very vital.”12. what information can we get from the first two paragraphs?a. brown fat stores calories and makes us fatter. b. social excitement helps gain more weight.c. brown fat can burn energy to produce heat. d. it doesnt take long to turn white fat into brown.13. which of the following statement does the text support?a. levels of brown fat can be increased by socializing.b. the mice lacking social life lose more weight. c. the research findings havent been published so far.d. dr matthew during wasnt convinced of the result. 14. we can conclude from the text that _.a. the fat in mices belly was reduced because of the relaxing environment b. a sedentary lifestyle and high calories foods influence peoples social life c. cancer and death are mainly caused for lack of social lifed. surfing the internet may influence peoples face-to-face communication 15. whats the main idea of the text?a. socializing is unnecessarily important in peoples daily life.b. socializing contributes to peoples losing weight. c. white fat can be changed into brown fat. d. brown fat is beneficial to peoples health.第二节 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。eyesight plays a very important role in our
