Each individual (个体的) ant hardly weigh anything, but put together they weigh roughly the same as all of mankind. They also live nearly everywhere, except on frozen mountain tops and around the poles.Foranimals their size, ants have been astonishingly successful, largely due to their wonderfulsocial behavior.In colonies (群体) that range in size from a few hundred to tens of millions, they organize their lives with a clear division of labor. Even more amazing is how they achievethis level of organization. Where we use sound and sight to communicate, ants dependprimarily on pheromone (外激素), chemicals sent out by individuals and smelled or tastedby fellow members of their colony. When an ant finds food, it produces a pheromone that will lead others straight to where the food is. When an individual ant comes under attack or is dying, it sends out an alarm pheromone to warn the colony to prepare for a conflict as a defense unit.In fact, when it comes to the art of war, ants have no equal. They are completely fearless and will readily take on a creature much larger than themselves, attacking in large groups and overcoming their target. Such is their devotion to the common good of the colony that not only soldier ants but also worker ants will sacrifice their lives to help defeat an enemy.Behaving in this selfless and devoted manner, these little creatures have survived on Earth, for more than 140 million years, far longer than dinosaurs. Because they think as one, they have a collective (集体的) intelligence greater than you would expect from itsindividual parts.21.We can learn from the passage that ants are _.A. not willing to share foodB. not found around the polesC. more successful than all other animalsD. too many to achieve any level of organization22.Ants can use pheromones for_.A. escape B. communication C. warning enemies D. arranging labor23.What does the underlined expression take on in Paragraph 3 mean?A.

I dont even give it a second thought. In China, its a whole other story! Here, ordering is a fun game of trial and error, and the adventure begins before the food is even served!Many restaurants in central Beijing advertise “English language menus”, but the translations can just add to the confusion. Although accompanying pictures can be a helpful relief, the translations often make the whole experience even more amusing. During my first few weeks in China I tried some delicious dishes with off-the-wall names. As an experiment, my friends and I would order things like “students addicted to chicken gristle (软骨)” and “red burned lion head”. It was always fun to see what landed on our table. Eventually we learned that “lion head” was actually pork, and “students” are “addicted” to diced (切碎的) chicken with green pepper.Recently, I came across a busy restaurant down a narrow side street in a Beijing hutong. It was lunchtime and the small room was packed with people sitting on small stools (凳子) eating noodles. I was hungry and cold, and the steaming bowls looked irresistible! I sat myself down and called out for a “caidan!” In response, the waitress pointed to a wall at the back of the restaurant. The wall was full of Chinese characters describing numerous dishes. There was only one sentence in English: “crossing over the bridge noodles”.I had never heard of the dish and had no idea what it would taste like. I took a gamble and ordered one bowl of “crossing over the bridge noodles”. A few minutes later the waitress carried over a heavy bowl full of broth (肉汤) and I quickly dug in. It was the best bowl of noodles I had ever tasted! I have been back again and again and each time I point at the one English sentence “crossing over the bridge noodles”. I always enter a restaurant in China feeling excited and a little nervous. Who knows what the next ordering adventure will show?29.How does the writer find the English-language menus in many of Beijings restaurants?A. Confusing but amusing. B. Easy to understand.C. Boring and annoying. D. Accurate and helpful.30.The underlined word “gamble” in the last paragraph probably means _.A. taste B. look C. step D. risk31.The passage deals with _.A. the authors favorite Chinese dishesB. the fun the author had ordering food in Chinas restaurantC. a comparison between Western food and Chinese foodD. the correct way to translate the names of Chinese dishes into English32.The passage is developed mainly in the form of _.A. examples and statements B. comparison and conclusionC. causes and effects D. time and descriptionDMaintown Public LibraryJob ApplicationJob DescriptionThank you for your interest in the Part-Time Public Library Clerk position.
