But rats may soon be mans new good friends.What happens after an earthquake? We send in rescue(援救)dogs. Why? Because they can smell people. Dogs save lives. They help rescuers to find living people. But dogs are big and they cant get into small spaces. So now a new research project is using a smaller animal to save lives： the rat.How does it work? First， the rat is trained to smell people. Whenthishappens， the rats brain gives a signal(信号). This is sent to a small radio on its back， and then the rescuers follow the radio signals. When the rats brain activity jumps， the rescuers know that someone is alive. The rat has smelled that person.Although there are already robots which can do this job， rats are better. “Robots noses dont work well when there are other smells around. Rats are good at that.” Rats can also see in the dark， they are cheaper and quicker to train than dogs， and unlike robots， they dont need electricity!The “rat project” is not finished， but a scientist says， “It would be great. A rat could get into spaces we couldnt get to， and a rat would get out if it wasnt safe.” Perhaps for the first time in history， people will be happy to see a rat in a building (but only after an earthquake， of course).26 . In the writers opinion， rats may become mans new friends because.Athey can be food for peopleBthey can help rescuers to find living peopleCthey are lovelyDthey can completely take the place of man to carry out rescue jobs27 . What does the underlined word “this” mean?AAn earthquake.BThe rat has smelled a personCThe rat has smelled that someone is alive .DThe rat has found a robot.28 . Which of the following is NOT true?ARats dont need electricity.BRats are better than robots when smelling.CRats are as clever as radios.DRats can see things in the dark when doing rescues.29 . Why does the “rat project” sound great according to the passage?ABecause rats can get into very small spaces.BBecause rats have better noses than dogs.CBecause rats dont like robots.DBecause rats are brave.30 . Which is the best title of this passage?AWays of saving peopleBRats and robotsCAfter earthquakeDRats for rescueHenry has recently received a letter from Paul, his pen-friend living in Canada. Here is the letter:Dear Henry,Thanks very much for your email, which I want to reply to for ages. I have finished all my exams. The last one was History. Its extremely horrible because our teacher set a lot of long questions but only a few multiple choice items. I think this subject is difficult because therere lots of facts and dates to remember. Ive got a poor memory and I hate to remember things. Im afraid I wont pass the examination. So this is the end of Year 8, my second year at secondary school. I did eight subjects in total. The worst were History and French. I find them very boring and difficult to learn. Ive already forgotten most of the things I was taught! I need to study hard next year. I liked Geography best this year, but we only had it twice a week. Our Geography teacher, Mr. Hill, is great. He taught the subject very well. He didnt like to spoon-feed students with lots of facts. He preferred to let us learn independently. He didnt give us any homework the whole year. Perhaps he hated doing homework when hes a student!We did a project with Mr. Hill about several countries in Europe and Asia. Some of my friends went to the library for photos and I used the internet to search for appropriate information. Mr. Hill gave us a lot of valuable advice. At the end of the term, we gave an oral presentation in front of the class. Id like to be a pilot, then I could travel and see all those places. Im going to visit Tokyo with my three classmates next month. We wont stay in a hotel because my uncle has a large house there. You visited Tokyo last year, didnt you? Do you think we need to learn some Japanese before our journey? Youve told me that Japanese food is delicious, havent you? Well have the opportunity to try it ourselves soon! Ive saved money for the journey for nearly half a year. Were all very excited about it. Please tell me about your year at school. Were your exams easy?Best wishes,Paul31 .

He got angry easily and often shouted at those who loved him.One day, his father gave him a bag of nails and told him,“Every time you lose your temper, hammer a nail into the fence.”The first day the boy drove 37 nails into the fence. Then the number got smaller. The boy found that it was easier to hold his temper than to drive those nails into the fence.Finally the day came when the boy didnt lose his temper at all. He told his father about it and the father said, “Now, my son, pull out one nail each day when you are able to hold your temper.”Days passed and the young boy was finally able to tell his father that all the nails were gone. The father took his son by the hand, led him to the fence and said, “You have done well, my son, but look at the holes in the fence. The fence will never be the same as before. When you are in anger, what you do leaves a scar just like this. You can put a knife into a man and draw it out. Now matter how many times you say sorry, the hurt is still there. ”37 . What did the boys father advise him to do when he got angry?AHe should cry out.BHe should shout at those who loved him.CHe should count the nails.DHe should hammer a nail into the fence.38 . What did the boy find much easier?ABeing angry.BHolding his temper.CDriving the nails into the fence.DPulling out the nails.39 . The underlined word “scar” in this passage means _.A伤痕B怒气C洞D抱歉40 .

When you were a baby you had about 330 bones, and now you have just over 200 bones. The number reduces because some bones join together as you grow. Your wonderful bones work together to protect you and support your body.Many usesMany bones protect your body. For example, the bone that makes up your head is called the skull. The skull surrounds your brain and protects it. The ribs that cover your chest protect your heart and lungs.Other bones are used to support the body. The many bones in your feet allow you to walk, and stand on your tiptoes. Your hands and feet have more than half of the bones in your body!Biggest BoneThe longest and strongest bone in your body is in your leg. It is called the femur and it goes from your hip to your knee. It is a very important bone because it carries all of your weight and helps you move from place to place.Smallest BoneWould you believe the smallest bone in your body is in your car? It is about the size of a grain of rice and is called the stirrup. When sound waves come into your car the stirrup shakes back and forth, allowing the sound waves to reach your brain. When the waves reach your brain you bear the sound.“Funny” BoneHah! The funny bone isnt really a bone at all. It is actually a nerve (神经). When you hit the nerve that is near your elbow, it really hurts or tingles. Whats so funny about that? The funny bone probably got its name from the bone that is above your elbow. That bone is called the humerus, which sounds like the word “humorous”, meaning “funny”.The bones that make up our bodies help us grow, and allow us to move. When you think, about it our bones really are wonderful.TitleWonderful 76 . Man bodyYou have more than 200 bones when you 77 . up Your bones work together to protect you and support your body.Many usesTo protect your body*The skull protects your brain 78
