The world is full of successful teenagers and young people. They dreamt big and their dreams changed their lives and even the world. Steve Jobs and Bill Gates are the good examples. They have developed technology and brought great progress to human besides making money for themselves.Older people should believe that it is never too late to dream and that human mind is never too old to make dream turn into reality.

Have you ever wondered why?Locusts are super delicious food for birds, but it is not always an easy job for birds to catch them. It is neither because locusts are good jumpers or runners nor because they are smarter than their enemies. The reason is that the colors of locusts change with the colors of crops(庄稼). When crops are young, locusts look greens. But when autumn comes, locusts change to the yellow and brown color as crops do.Brown bears, tigers and other animals move quietly through forests. They can’t be seen easily by their enemies. This is because they have colors similar to the trees. For the sane reason, polar bears that live on a land of snow and ice are white. Butterflies and bees living among the flowers are colorful like flowers. Soil insects are mostly dark-colored and they live under the soil(土壤) in a dark and wet environment. However, insects with colors different from plants can easily be found and eaten by others. So in order to survive, they have to hide themselves in the daytime and appear only at night.Have you ever noticed some even stranger acts? The ink fish in the sea can send out some very black ink when it faces danger. As the ink spreads over, its enemies will find themselves suddenly in a dark world. At the same time the ink fish immediately swims away. That is how it keeps itself safe though it is not strong at all.( ) 11.It is not easy for birds to catch locusts because _________.A. locusts are good runnersB. locusts can jump very highC. locusts are smarter than birdsD. locusts can change their colors( ) 12.

The ink fish ________ so that its enemies will not see it.A. changes its colorB. makes the water around it blackC. appears only at nightD. hides itself in the sea rocks( ) 15. What is the main idea of this passage?A. Some insects and animals have different skills.B. Some insects and animals are cleverer that we think.C. Some insects and animals uses colors to protect themselves.D. Some insects and animals can get used to the environment easily.五、任务型阅读（每题1分，共10分）（2014江苏宿迁）Why should students play sports?

They don’t have enough time to relax or to stay with their family.Work hours are different from one country to another. In France, people spend about 1646 hours a year on work. In Japan, however, people work about 2159 hours a year. That means a Japanese worker works 513 more hours a year than a French worker.Why do people work so many hours? Some people work extra hours because they want to make more money. However, many companies don’t pay overtime. Their workers don’t get more pay for more work. Some people think it’s their duty to work more hours. Some are afraid of losing their jobs if they don’t work more hours.Many people say that their vacations are too short.

One study shows fewer than half of workers used all their vacation days. In Great Britain, there is a saying, “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.” If that is true, there must be a lot of dull people in the world.( )1.

Felipe’s heart was beating in Donna’s chest, but Donna didn’t know it. Her parents and doctors didn’t tell her. They waited until she was stronger; then they told her about Felipe. “I feel very sad,” Donna said, “but I am thankful to Felipe.”Three months later the operation Donna went back to school. She has to have regular checkups, and she has to take medicine every day. But she is living a normal life.Felipe’s brother John says, “Every time we see Donna, we think of Felipe.

Chen was an international student from China. He wanted to learn about American culture and hoped he and Eric would become good friends.At first, Eric seemed friendly. He always greeted Chen warmly before class. Sometimes he offered to study with Chen. He even invited Chen to eat lunch with him. But after the term was over and they were in different classes, Eric seemed more distant. They didn’t see each other very much at college. One day Chen called Eric ,But Eric didn’t seem very interested in talking to him. Chen was hurt by Eric’s change of attitude（态度）.“Eric said we were friends.”Chen said.“I thought friends were friends forever. As a foreigner, he doesn’t understand the way Americans view friendship.Americans use the word “friend” in a very general way . Their friendshipis based on common interests. When the shared activity ends, the friendship may die. Now as Eric and Chen are no longer classmates, their“friendship”has changed.In some cultures friendship means a strong life-long tie between two people—friendship develops slowly, since it is built to last. American society(社会) changes quickly. Studies show one-fifth of American families move every year. American friendship develops quickly, and it may change just as quickly.Learning how Americans view friendship can help non-Americans remove misunderstandings（误解）. It can help them make friends in the American way.。
