Each of her objects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled(贴标签)everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each other.War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, “Take your shoes away! Why under my bed! ” Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me. I jumped to my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder.The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call. Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled (爬)under her covers, sobbing.Obviously, that was something she should not go through alone.

Sadly, biological facts prevent us ever accomplishing such a thing without artificial aid-we simply weigh too much, and all our mass pushes down through our relatively small feet, resulting in a lot of pressure that makes us sink.However, several types of animals can walk on water. One of the most interesting is the common basilisk Basilicus basilicus, a lizard (蜥蜴)native to Central and South America. It can run across water for a distance of several meters, avoiding getting wet by rapidly hitting the waters surface with its feet. The lizard will take as many as 20 steps per second to keep moving forward. For humans to do this, we，d need huge feet that we could bring up to our ears in order to create adequate w hitting. But fortunately there is an alternative: cornflour. By adding enough of this common thickening agent to water (and it does take a lot), you can create a “non-Newtonian” liquid that doesnt behave like normal water. Now, if the surface of the water is hit hard enough, particles(粒子）in the water group together for a moment to make the surface hard. Move quickly enough and put enough force into each step, and you really can walk across the surface of an adequately thick Liquid of cornflour.Fun though all this may sound, its still rather messy and better read about in theory than carried out in practice. If you must do it, then keep the water wings handy in case you start to sink-and take a shower afterward!8. What do we know about Basilicus basilicus from the passage?A. It is light enough to walk on water.B. Its huge feet enable it to stay above water.C. It can run across water at a certain speed.D. Its unique skin keeps it from getting wet in water.9. What is the function of the cornflour according to the passage?A. To create a thick liquid. B. To turn the water into solid.C. To help the liquid behave normally. D. To enable the water to move rapidly.10. What is the authors attitude toward the idea of humans walking on water?A. It is risky but beneficial. B. It is interesting and worth trying.C. It is crazy and cannot become a reality.D. It is impractical though theoretically possible.二、完形填空（每题2分，共40分）A gentle breeze blew through Jennifers hair. The golden red sun was_11_.
