But a 15-year-old schoolboy from Adelaide has just finished an experiment（实验）to tell us that it is not true. He shows everybody that the goldfish is smarter than we think.“I dont believe that they had a three-second memory because animals need their memory, so they build up over time a knowledge of where the food is,” said Roy Stokes, a student at the Australian Science and Mathematics School.He did the experiment in small tank（鱼缸）of goldfish. “I decided to get a bit of red Logo and just feed them next to that. Every day Id put it in and spread food around it.” He said.“At first they were a bit scared of it, but by the end of the three weeks, they were actually almost coming before I put the food in.”After leaving the fish alone for a week, Rory placed the red Logo block in the tank again.“They remembered perfectly well,” he said.“They actually had a time faster than the average of the three feeds before I left.”The goldfish showed that not only could they store information, they also had the ability to get it back as a later date.Culum Brown, a research fellow at Sydneys Macquarie University, has studied fish behavior for more than ten years.He says his studies of Australian native fish show fish were intelligent creatures that know how to avoid enemies and catch food like any other animal.“The thing that I really liked about Rorys experiment is he not only got that classical conditioning going but the fact that he could get them next just to that specific coloured market. I thought it was really good.” He said.（1）Rory began his research by _. A . discussing with his classmatesB . making friends with goldfishC . asking his teacher for adviceD . questioning a popular belief（2）Rory put a red Logo in the tank to _. A . connect food with the colorB . make the tank nicer to look atC . feed the fish at the same placeD . give the fish something to play with（3）Whats the right order of Rorys experiment?a. find a tank of goldfishb. feed the fish next to the Logoc. leave the goldfish alone for a weekd. take out the Logoe. put a red Logo into the tankf. put the Logo back into the tankA . adbecfB . aebdcfC . dabefcD . adebcf（4）What do the last three paragraphs tell us? A . Rorys research was highly praised by experienced experts.B . Rorys experiment failed to meet the scientific standard.C . Many scientists had already done the experiment before.D . Fish are the cleverest animal in Australia.（5）What can we learn from the story? A . Fish can become smarter with the help of red color.B . What everybody believes is not necessarily true.C . Scientists should learn from middle school students.D . Young people are generally smarter than aged ones.二、 根据句意完成已给出首字母或汉语提示的单词，使补全后的句子意思 (共8题；共21分)4. （1分）Before you go to England，youd better change some p_in the bank5. （1分）Henry is my _ (music) partner and my best friend. 6. （1分）Look!

Disgust(厌恶)creates not only a blue-yellow color around the lips, but also a red- green color around the nose and forehead.“We believe these color patterns are the result of small changes in blood flow triggered(触发) by the central nervous(神经) system. Lead researcher Alex Martinez said._ Does the color alone or also facial expressions help people tell others emotions?To figure this out, scientists added color patterns to pictures of faces that showed no facial expressions. _They were able to tell the emotions 75 percent of the timewithout any difficulty._ For example, when two people are heatedly arguing over something, we say they are red in the face. When a person is very angry, wed say he or she is blue in the face.A. But this raises a question.B. It is shown that human emotions are influenced by colors on the face.C. The
