Beautiful GirlDWhen you read an article you will understand and remember it better if you can work out how the writer has put the ideas together. Sometimes a writer puts ideas together by asking questions and then answering them. For example, if the article is about groundhogs(土拨鼠), the set of questions in the writers head might be:What does a groundhog look like?Where do groundhogs live?What do they eat? In the article, the writer might answer those questions.Sometimes a writer writes out his questions in the article. These questions give you signals. They tell you what the writer is going to write next. Often a writer has a question in his head but he doesnt write it out for you. You have to work out his question for yourself. Heres a sample reading for you to practice this method:EarthwormsDo you know how many kinds of earthworms there are？There are about 1800 kinds in the world! They can be brown, purple, green. They can be as small as 3 cm long and as large as 3 m long.The best time to see earthworms is at night, especially a cool, wet night. Thats when they come up from their burrows(地洞) to hunt for food. Earthworms dont like to be in the sun. Thats because they breathe through their skin, and they cant breathe if their skin gets too dry. Earthworms must come out of the earth if it rains a lot, because they cant breathe in their flooded burrows. What a dangerous life!Earthworms dont have eyes, so how can they tell when its dark? They have special places on their skin that senses light. These spots tell whether its light or dark. If you shine a flashlight on an earthworm at night, it will quickly disappear into the ground.Earthworms dont have ears either, but they can hear by feeling movements in the earth. If you want to hear like an earthworm, lie on the ground with your fingers in your ears. Then have a friend stamp his or her feet near you. This is how earthworms feel birds and people walking near them.Earthworms are useful. Farmers and gardeners like having lots of earthworms in their land because the worms help to make better soil when they dig. That digging keeps the soil loose and airy(通风的). In one year earthworms can dig up as much as 23,000 kg of soil in an area about the size of a football field37. Whats the purpose of reading Earthworms?A. To show the special life facts of earthworms.B. To explain the differences from the groundhogs.C. To put the writers idea into real use.D. To make the readers think more clearly. 38. Which question CANNOT be answered in the passage?A. How do earthworms help with gardeners?B. What life are earthworms living with?C. When may people observe earthworms?D. Why can human listen like earthworms?39. How can you understand Earthworms better according to this passage?A. Read, ask and answer questions in your own head while reading.B. Read to work out all the questions in the writers head while reading.C. Read and check all the things that are not clear to you again and again.D. Read for general ideas and discuss or compare with other similar topics. 40. Whats the best title for the passage?A. One way to help with understandingB. One way to practice with a new ideaC. One way to learn to be a wise writerD. One way to be clearer about worms四、词汇检测（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）根据下列句子及所给汉语注释或通过上下文，在答题卡上标有题号的横线上，写出空 缺处各单词的正确形式。每空只写一词。41. When
