They not only influence human technology, but also animals, reported Forbes.Studies show that many animals use changes in Earths magnetic field to find directions. These changes provide the animals a general compass(指南针) for south and north. Animals can also use them as landmarks.For example, scientists have found special cells in part of a birds eye nervous system(神经系统). They seem to react to changes in the magnetic field.Some fish species, like the common trout，have cells with magnetic sensors in their nasal cavity(鼻腔). In 1994 “magnetic sense” was also discovered in sea turtles.Some whale species may use magnetic sense to navigate (导航) the oceans. A dysfunction of this sense may explain the still mysterious beachings (动物搁浅). Sometimes several hundred animals, such as whales and dolphins, are driven out of water along beaches. They usually cant breathe under their own weight and die slowly.24 . What do many animals use to find directions?ASolar storms.BMagnetic field.CChanges in magnetic fieldDGeneral compass25 .

For learning English pronunciation(发音), Mr. Joe thinks songs are the most useful way to learn. At the same time, you can learn some new words and phrases while singing songs. Mr. Joe has used songs to help himself learn French, Spanish, Japanese and Chinese. You should do the same. Some words used in songs are not everyday English, so you have to be careful how you use song lyrics（歌词）when you speak. Most words and sentences are very useful. You dont have to sing songs aloud if you are shy, but after learning a song you should be able to follow the words without looking at the lyrics. When you can do that, you have learned something that you will never forget! Some good songs to listen to are from the Beatles, John Denver and the Carpenters. Their songs are not too fast and the lyrics are close to normal spoken English. Just for fun, you can try Mr. Joes favorite singer, B.B. King. His songs are not easy at all! If you can understand even 80% of Why I Sing the Blues, you are a very advanced student. If you become good at singing English songs, you can try to go to karaoke and sing with your friends. When you are able to sing a song in another language, even if you dont sing so beautifully, you will really impress(给.深刻印象) other people!33 . Which is Mr. Joes mother language?AFrench.BEnglish.CChinese.DJapanese.34 . The songs from the Beatles are easy to learn, one of the reasons may be_.Aeveryone likes the songsBJohn Denvers voice is sweetCthe lyrics of the songs are beautifulDthe lyrics are close to normal spoken English35 .

Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?AEnglish Songs.BThe Famous Band-The Beatles.CEnglish Songs helps English Learning.DHow to Learn English.When we think of paper, we think of newspapers and books. But there are many other uses. Only half of the worlds paper is used for books and newspapers.Paper is very good for keeping you warm. You have perhaps seen homeless men asleep on a large number of newspapers. In Finland, it is sometimes -40 in winter. The farmers wear paper boots（靴子）in the snow. Nothing could be warmer.Each year, more and more things are made of paper. We have had paper cups and plates for a long time. But now we hear that chairs, tables, and even beds can be made of paper. With paper boots and shoes, you can also wear paper hats, paper dresses, and paper raincoats. When you have used them once, you throw them away and buy new ones.The latest use of paper seems to be paper houses. These are not small houses for children to play in, but real, big houses for people to live in. You can buy a house with three rooms for about 500 dollars. You can put it up by yourself in a few hours, and you can use it for about five years.37 . Before we began to use paper to make chairs, tables and beds, _.Awe could buy paper boots and shoes in paper shopsBwe could wear paper hats and paper dressesCwe had already had paper cups and platesDwe had no paper cups and no paper plates38 . The latest use of paper seems to be paper houses. These houses are _.Anot big and strong enough to live inBmade for children to play in or for homeless men to live inCmade only for the rich peopleDnot expensive and easy to build up39 .
