They are the symbols of the International Red Cross Society and the Islamic version of the same group, the International Red Crescent Society. Both societies do the same thing: they help people who have been injured(受伤) in war or natural disasters such as floods and earthquakes.In June, 1859 a Swiss man named Jean-Henri Dunant organized emergency aid for hundreds of French and Austrian soldiers who lay wounded(受伤的) and dying after the Battle of Solferino in Italy. He wrote a book about what happened and suggested that voluntary relief groups should be organized in every country. People around the world read his book and in 1864 the first groups formed under the name “International Red Cross”.Their plan was to have ambulances (救护车) to help the injured in wartime. These ambulances would have large red crosses on them. Soldiers on both sides would know that these ambulances had injured men in them and would not attack them. It was not long before the Red Cross had hospitals on the battlefields(战地) and ships to carry the injured soldiers. Now they even have flying helicopters in the sky.As time passed the Red Cross grew larger. Now they have blood banks and take food to people who are starving（饥饿）. Wherever there is a disaster, either the Red Cross or the Red Crescent will be there.31. Which countries fought the Battle of Solferino? A. Italy and France. B. France and Austria. C.

Who read Dunants book? A. French and Austrian injured soldiers in the Battle of Solferino. B. All the people injured in natural disasters. C. People around the world. D. Only people in France and Austria.35. What is the main idea of this passage? A. Jean-Henri Dunant organized aid for hundreds of French and Austrian soldiers. B. The Battle of Solferino was fought more than one hundred years ago. C. The Red Cross & Red Crescent Societies help people injured in wars or natural disasters. D.

Poets, schools, publishers, booksellers and libraries will hold readings, competitions, book displays, educational events and other activities during National Poetry Month. The organizers goal is to bring attention to the great work of poets（诗人） in the past and today. It also wants Americans to know the pleasure of reading poetry. And it wants poetry to be a more important part of school educational programs.The United States Library of Congress（国会） chooses an official poet, called the Poet Laureate（桂冠）, every one to two years. Many of them have created new ways to celebrate National Poetry Month. For example, in April of 1998, Poet Laureate Robert Pinsky asked Americans to send in their favorite poems. Thousands of men, women and children did. The Favorite Poem Project collected video of Americans from all backgrounds, ages and places reading their favorite poems and talking about them.Ted Kooser served as Poet Laureate from 2004 to 2006. Mr Kooser has family in the news business. So his poetry project was connected to the media （媒体）. Ted Kooser started a weekly poetry column he provided free to newspapers and online media. He uses poems by current poets. Most of the poems are short and not complex. Mr Koosers project is called American Life in Poetry. He started it in 2005. He said he wanted to show common Americans that there is something in poetry for them.The Poet Laureate, Kay Ryan, opened this years National Poetry Month April first with a call to American colleges. Miz Ryan has been teaching English in local colleges for thirty years.So she focused her poetry project on college students.

The word “examine” is to look at or consider something in detail in order to discover something about them. After examining the remains （遗骸） of a dinosaur, scientists say they have found evidence it had bright-coloured feathers. The findings were printed in Science magazine.American and Chinese scientists did careful research and re-built the feathers of a flightless dinosaur. The small, two-legged creature （生物） lived about one hundred-fifty million years ago. It would have weighed only about one hundred ten grams. The dinosaurs remains were discovered in Liaoning Province in China. Researchers studied melanosomes（黑素体） in the feathers. These melanosomes are small, color-producing things, and they formed as the dinosaur was developing. The researchers compared them to the melanosomes that control the colour of feathers on modern birds. They were then able to make out the colors of the dinosaur feathers. The dinosaur appeared to have a dark gray or black body. The top of the creature was light brown in color. And, it had bright white wings. Each of the feathers had black on the end.Richard Prum，a biologist at Yale University，says the melanosomes were in very good condition. He says the dinosaur would be a beautiful creature if it were still alive.The discovery is useful to scientists in another way. It helps them better understand not only how dinosaurs looked but also how they lived in their daily life. Some researchers plan to use this way to study the colours of other feathered dinosaurs. 41. What have scientists discovered recently? A. Brown and gray dinosaurs. B. The first remains of a dinosaur. C. The magazine Science failed to come out. D. A kind of dinosaur with bright-coloured feathers.42. A flightless dinosaur means that the creature _. A. was able to fly B. could have no wings C. could not fly D. was unable to walk43. Where were the remains of the two-legged creature found? A. It would have weighed only about one hundred ten grams. B. They were discovered in Liaoning Province in China.C. It lived about one hundred-fifty million years ago.D. They were rebuilt by American and Chinese researchers.44.

Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage? The discovery helps scientists _.

Sometimes it also becomes food for other predators. Polar bears are the largest of all the land predators. They can run across snow and swim in icy water for hours without rest. Their favourite food is seal. Not all big animals live on small animals. Hippos have heavy bodies and huge mouths. But they dont eat animals. They just eat grass. Some predators use speed to catch their prey. Cheetahs are the fastest animals on land. They can run up to 70 km an hour. Other predators use their senses to find their food. Sharks can see, smell, hear, feel and taste. They can also sense electrical currents（电流）from other animals bodies. Some fish try to hide themselves, but with this sixth sense, sharks can always find them. Sharks have smooth bodies. This helps them swim without using lots of energy. They need to save their energy because they never really sleep and never stop hunting. Flying is a useful skill for many predators in the sky. The butcher bird is the most interesting predator. It has a special wa
