When we are born， we are given names that stay with us for our whole lives．Some names include good wishes and hopes from parents， while others may be special and easy to remember．But do you know how the new coronavirus got its name？

The task of naming a virus is no less important than naming a person． When a disease breaks out，the official（官方的）naming of a new virus is often late and may lead to many problems．Over the past ten years，some improper names have caused problems． In 2009，the "swine flu（猪流感）"was widely used before the official name， HINI virus， was announced．This led Egypt to kill all of its pigs even though it didn't spread among people who hadn't been near pigs．In 2015， the name MERS （Middle East Respiratory Syndrome，中东呼吸综合征） made people of this region angry．

So in 2015， the World Health Organization （WHO）announced that the names of viruses should be easy to remember but avoid being named after places，people，animals and foods．Following these rules，the new coronavirus we are suffering from was named "COV﹣ID﹣19" by the WHO on Feb 11，2020． In this name，"CO" means "corona"，"VI" stands for "virus" and "D" means "disease"．

（1）When our parents name us， they 　　．

A．	often put their hopes on us
B．	try to make the names special
C．	can easily remember our names
D．	let the names stay with us longer

（2）What does the underlined sentence mean？　　

A．	Naming a virus is not very important．
B．	Naming a person or a virus is a difficult task．
C．	Naming a virus is as important as naming a person．
D．	Naming a person is more important than naming a virus．

（3）Which is true according to the second paragraph？　　

A．	MERS killed many pigs in Egypt．
B．	HINI virus could spread among people．
C．	A new virus isn't often named officially in time．
D．	Improper names caused viruses to spread widely．

（4）What do we know about MERS virus？　　

A．	It broke out in 2009．
B．	It was named after places．
C．	It got its name from WHO．

It's a common belief that fish can't remember anything for longer than seven seconds． It may seem sad to think that every moment in their lives would be like seeing the world for the first time．But don't be so quick to feel sorry for them． A new study has found that fish have much better memories than we used to think．

In the study， researchers from Mac Ewan University in Canada trained a kind of fish called African cichlids to go to a certain area of their tankto get food． They took the fish out and then waited for 12 days before putting them back in the tank again． They found that after such a long break the fish still went to the same place where they first got food．

In fact， scientists had been thinking for a long time that African cichilds might have a good memory．But there was no clear evidence until the latest findings．

Just as a good memory can make our lives easier， it also plays an important part when a fish is trying to survive in the wild．"If fish are able to remember that a certain area contains（容纳） safe food， they will be able to go back to that area without putting their lives in danger，" lead researcher Trevor Hamilton told Live Science．

A．	they have bad memories

（3）What does the underlined word "tank" in Paragraph 2 mean？　　

A．	A kind of fish food．
B．	A kind of hiding place．
