It is like a visit to the moon! When you are under water, it is easy for you to climb big rocks because you are no longer heavy. Here, under water, everything is blue and green. During the day, there is enough light. When fish swim nearby (附近), you can catch them with your hands. When you have a tank (罐) of air on your back, you can stay in deep water for a long time.

They even sound better than the violins made today. Violin makers and scientists try to make instruments like the Italian violins. But they arent the same. Musicians still prefer the old ones.Some people think it is the age of the violins. But not all the old violins sound wonderful. Only the old violins from Cremona are special. So age cannot be the correct answer.Other people think the secret to those violins is wood. The wood must be from certain kinds of trees. But the kind of wood may not be so important. It may be more important to cut the wood in a special way. Wood for a violin must be cut very carefully. It has to be the right size and shape. The smallest difference will change the sound of the violin. Musicians sometimes think that it is the secret of the Italians. Possibly they understood more than us about how to cut the wood.Size and shape may not be the answer either. Scientists can make new ones which are exactly the same size and shape. But the new violins still do not sound as good as the old ones. Some scientists think the secret may be the varnish (清漆). Varnish is what covers the wood of the violin. It makes the wood look shiny. It also helps the sound of the instrument. But no one knows what the Italian violin makers used in their varnish.（1）Violins first made in Cremona . A . are worse than the violins made todayB . are the same as the violins made todayC . sound better than the violins made todayD . have the same varnish as the violins made today（2）Why is the violin painted with the varnish?

A . Scientific ideas about violins made today.B . The ways of making good violins.C . The musical instruments.D . The old Italian violins.4. （8分）阅读理解We walked all afternoon with Infadoos and Scragga. Their men walked about a hundred metres ahead of us.“When did your people, the Kukuana, come to this place?”“They came from the north many thousands of moons ago,” Infadoos explained. “When they reached the mountains, they could go no farther. They stayed here where the land is good and there is water.”“Do you live here in peace?” I asked.“There have been two wars. Once an army came down from the north, but we killed most of them. Soon after that, we fought among ourselves.” He said, “The king at that time had two sonstwins. When he died, both young men wanted to be king. One of the twins, Twala, killed the other and became king.”“Did the dead man have a wife and children?” I asked. I knew that if he did, the fighting could start again one day.“Yes. He had a wife, Imotu, and a son, Ignosi. They ran away.” He pointed to a village a short way ahead. “That is the village where Imotu and Ignosi first hid,” he said. “We shall stay there tonight.”As soon as we were within a mile or so of the village, an army of men came out. As we passed them, they shouted a welcome.Their women were in the village. They stopped whatever they were doing to watch us pass by, but they were not rude. As soon as we were comfortable in a hut, they came with milk, honey, and cooked food.A young man brought a fat young ox which he killed and cut into pieces. We took a few pieces for ourselves and gave him the rest. We dont want them to think we were selfish.（选自所罗门王的宝藏，有删节）（1）The Kukuana people moved a long way _before they stayed in this place.

It is used in foods around the world such as cakes, bread, frozen meats, fish and vegetables. In the beginning, people thought MSG was safe just like salt and sugar. However, in 1968 some people reported they seemed to have bad reactions (反应) to MSG after having had a meal at a restaurant. They included headaches and quick heartbeat (心跳). It was also reported that MSG excited a persons brain and caused his death in Japan. Scientists think that MSG may lead to many neurological disorders (神经紊乱). In mice studies done by a university, the evidence showed the mice didnt want to eat the food including MSG.Today many food companies “hide” MSG on food labels (标签) by using different names. If you see “natural flavorings”, “hydrolyzed protein” and “spices” in a food label, you are probably seeing a hidden way to “report” MSG in a food label. Every time we have a meal in a restaurant, we always feel the food very delicious to taste, but sometimes it is dangerous for our health because some poisonous food additives have been added to the food.To protect peoples health, our governments, from central to local, are taking actions to stop factories producing poisonous food additives.（1）Monosodium Glutamate is _. A . a foodB . an additiveC . a factoryD . a country（2）MSG is often used in _. A . frozen meatsB . cupsC . clothesD . book covers（3）The examples in the second paragraph tell us _. A . the food including MSG is delicious B . people like to eat in a restaurantC . mice like eating the food including MSGD . MSG is not safe sometimes（4）If you see “natural flavorings”, “hydrolyzed protein” and “spices” in a food label, you will know_. A . you must eat the food in a hidden wayB . the food label must be hiddenC . MSG is probably added to the foodD . you must report the food to your parents（5）The underlined word “substance” in the article means _. A . colourB . materialC . tasteD .

Well, maybe you should first learn something about the struggles (奋斗) of great scientists.The American Psychological Association did an interesting study. More than 400 students from schools in New York City took part in it. The students were divided into three groups. Group 1 read a typical textbook that describes the achievements of great scientists. Group 2 read about those scientists personal struggles. For example, as a Jew, Einstein (爱因斯坦) ran away from Nazi Germany to avoid persecution (迫害). The last group read about the scientists intellectual struggles, such as Marie Curies failed scientific tests. These stories about struggles also told students how the scientists dealt with these obstacles(障碍) .The students took a science exam before the study. After the sixweek study, they took another. Scientists found those in Groups 2 and 3 improved their science grades. Students in Group 1 didnt see a grade increase. Some of them even had lower grades after the study.The study was led by Xiaodong LinSiegler, a teacher at Columbia University. According to Xiaodong, kids often think Einstein was truly intelligent. They believe they will never match him.Many of them fail to realize that any success requires a long journey. Along the way, there are many failures(失败) . Students who read the struggle stories more probably said that great scientists were like themselves. The great minds also had to overcome obstacles to achieve success.Xiaodong says todays science textbooks fail to bring science to life. As a result, students seldom regard science as part of their everyday lives. Instead, they just see a long list of facts that they have to remember. Xiaodong thinks textbooks should include more stories about how great scientists had to struggle to succeed. And students should focus more on how these scientists dealt with the obstacles they met along the way.（1）According to the article, students can improve their physics and chemistry grades by _. A . reading the achievements of great scientists more carefullyB . listening more carefully to their physics and chemistry teachersC . learning about how great scientists dealt with their obstacles（2）All of the students who took part in the study _. A . were interested in physics and chemistryB . went to school in New York CityC . wanted to improve their physics and chemistry grades（3）Andy Hunt was one of the students who took part in the study.

A . tell students directly that Einstein was born a common manB . make the long lists of facts山at students have to remember more interestingC . include more stories about how great scientists had to struggle to succeed9. （10分） One day, in an English class, the students are having their lessons. Their teacher, a young woman is very happy. She sings some nice songs with them and then she goes to the blackboard and writes “SMILES” on it. “This is the longest（最长）word in English,” she says to the class.A girl stands up and says, “It has only six letters. How can it be the longest word in English?”The teacher smiles and says, “Oh, look! There is a mile（英里）between the first letter and the last one.”（1）One day, the students are having _.A . a go
