La Gomera is the only place in the world that has a whistle language. We do not know how and why it began because we do not know the complete history of the island. But we can certainly imagine the reasons for the beginning of the whistle language. There are many deep valleys on the island. A person on one side of a valley can not easily shout to a person on the other side. But he can whistle and be heard. Some of the best whistlers can be heard from four miles away and the record is seven miles.
The people who live on the island usually have good teeth, and this helps them to whistle well. They must also have good ears so that they can hear other whistlers.
We can understand why the whistle language continues. It is very useful on the island, and quite easy to learn. When somebody is hurt or ill, the whistle language takes the place of telephone. If the sick person is quite far away from the town, people pass the message from one to another. A boy guarding cattle on a hillside whistles to a man fishing from his boat. The last one is able to describe the trouble fully and exactly to the doctor in town. People help one another in the same way when a car breaks down or a cow is lost.
The whistle language is hundreds of years old, and probably it will continue to live on for hundreds of years more. Radio and TV often kill the special ways of speaking in different parts of a country. But on La Gomera you are nobody if you cannot whistle. Perhaps soon after TV arrives on the island, people there will be whistling the news and other facts and opinions.
If a person on La Gomera is ill, ______.
A.the whistle language will help pass the message to the doctor |
B.people will take him to town by carriage |
C.his family will take him to the hospital |
D.others will phone the doctor in town |
La Gomera is special because ______.
A.we don’t know its complete history |
B.people have to shout if they want to communicate |
C.people there have good teeth and ears |
D.people there use the whistle language to communicate with each other |
Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A.The whistle language has been used for hundreds of years on the island, but will not be used any longer. |
B.The whistle language can only be found on La Gomera. |
C.It is not easy for a person to live on La Gomera if he cannot whistle. |
D.The record shows that one best whistler can be heard by others from seven miles away. |
Which of the following will be the best title of this passage?
A.The Secret Language |
B.Do You Know the Whistle Language? |
C.The Life of Islanders |
D.La Gomera-a Mystery |

To many web-building spiders, most of whom are nearly blind, the web is their essential window on the world: their means of communicating, capturing prey (猎物), meeting mates and protecting themselves. A web-building spider without its web is like a man cast away on an island of solid rock, totally out of touch and destined to starve to death.
So important is the web to an orb-web spider’s survival that the animal will continue to construct new webs daily even if it is being starved. For 16 days the starving spider builds completely normal webs. Then, as the animal gets scrawnier (憔悴的), it constructs a wider-meshed web using fewer strands (线). Such webs would only trap larger prey, which is more economical from the perspective of a starving spider.
The spider stores energy by recycling web protein. It simply eats its own web each evening and re-uses it to produce new silk. In studies with radioactively labeled materials, it was found that 95 percent of web protein reappears in the next day’s web. Most of the energy needed for web-building is used in walking over the strands as they are laid down.
Scientists are impressed by the adaptability of the spider’s highly preprogrammed brain, which is larger for its size than the brain of any other invertebrate (无脊椎动物). If web-building is interrupted, or if some of the existing strands are destroyed, the spider simply goes back to see where the web is left off and then finished building a normal web. One spider will even finish building the incomplete web of another.
What is probably the best title for the passage?
A.Secrets of Spiders’ Adaptability |
B.Importance of Webs to Spiders |
C.Secrets of the Spiders’ Life |
D.Spiders’ Highly Preprogrammed Brain |

A.it is 16 days old |

A.it has a highly preprogrammed brain |
B.it reuses its web protein to reproduce new silk |
C.the web is everything for a spider |
D.it is able to rebuild a destroyed web |

Everybody in this world is different from one another.But do you know that understanding differences can help you better manage your money?
As we grow up,we gradually develop a set of our own values or beliefs.These are influenced by society,our family,the education we receive and so on.Once this value system is set up,it's not easy to change later in life.
Financial experts say that everyone also has their own belief of how to manage their finances.This is part of our value system and it has a great impact on the way we look after our money.
According to our different values,experts put us in three categories.They are:the ant,the cricket and the snail.
The ant works first
Just like ants who work heart and soul in summer in order to store food for winter,these people don't care about enjoying the moment.They work very hard and save money they earn so that they can enjoy life when they get old and retire.The ant loves to save but they could make more out of their money if they were willing to invest in some funds and stocks with low risk.
The cricket fun first
The cricket wants to enjoy everything now and doesn't think too much about the future.They even borrow money when they really want something.Many young people now belong to this group.These people have little savings.When they get old,they might have problems.They should learn to save and buy insurance.
The snail lives under pressure
The snail refers to people who make life difficult for themselves.They take big long term loans from the bank in order to buy things such as luxury houses.They are happy to take big loans even though they are not sure whether they can afford it.This can cause problems in the future.They should plan more carefully.

School is much more than a place where students gather to learn. For children, school is their first opportunity for social development and introduction to people outside of their family unit Lessons learned in school go beyond mathematics and language arts. Students learn to develop individual interests and find other people who share their interests.
Music is one of the ways like-minded children come together. When many people talk about the benefits of music education, they're quick to point out all of the numerous and measurable results 0f music education: many studies show the positive impact music programs can have on children in other areas of study.
Dr. Laurel Trainor, a professor of psychology, at McMaster University, has said young children who take music lessons show different brain development and improved memory compared to children who do not receive musical training. Stanford University researchers have found that musical training improves how the brain processes the spoken word, a finding that researchers say could lead to improving the reading ability of children who have dyslexia and other reading problems.
Furthermore, in an analysis of data on more than 25 ,000 secondary school students, researchers at the United States Department of Education found that students who report consistent involvement in instrumental music during middle school and high school perform significantly belter in mathematics.
There are many reasons why music education can help to make a child a better student, but there also being involved in music is also a social endeavor that can set the course for lifelong friends and help create social groups that last through school and beyond. Music education breeds familiarity during a school career ,when going from class to class or from school to school every year can be nerve wracking and unfamiliar.
What is the function of the first paragraph?
A. To show school is the place for students to learn.
B To stress the importance of learning knowledge
C To lead to the main topic of the passage
D To explain what the author really thinks of
According to the researchers, we can know that .
A. music lovers tend to use their brain in wise way
B music training can cure children of many diseases
C learning music is beneficial to students' performance in mathematics
D senior students disliked attending music lessons
What does the underlined word "dyslexia" mean?
A.Having difficulty with reading |
B.B Receiving training for music |
C.Gaining knowledge from learning |
D.D Losing the ability to read music |
It can be concluded from the passage that .
A. music can ensure you have lot of close friends
B changing schools is a bad experience for everyone
C music does offer social and understanding benefits
D few schools really focus on music education
