New research shows that sheep are clever
People often make jokes about how dull sheep are, but new research shows they may be cleverer than we think. Researchers at the University of Cambridge discovered that Welsh mountain sheep have brainpower that equals rodents (嚙齒動(dòng)物). Tests found that the sheep can map the area they live in, and some may even be able to plan ahead.
Young fish prefer noisy neighbors
A new study has shown that young fish like to live on reefs with noisy neighbors! Researchers from the universities of Auckland and Bristol found that young fish looking for a home choose areas where other noisy fish live. The scientists produced all kinds of sounds which had been recorded in different natural environments. The young fish seemed to prefer the sounds of natural reefs, complete with noisy animals! The scientists compared the choice to a music fan wandering around at a music festival, choosing to set up a tent closest to the music they like best!
Butterflies are disappearing
A new study has shown that 17 species of butterflies found in Europe have dropped by 70% in the last 20 years. The information collected from 3,000 sites across 15 countries shows it may be caused by the loss of grasslands covered with flowers. You can encourage butterflies to come into your garden by planting flowers.
21. According to the first paragraph, we may infer that sheep ______.
A. are less clever than rodents B. can find their home
C. can read maps D. are good planners
22. When young fish are looking for a home, they like to______.
A. live in a noisy environment B. live in areas close to their parents
C. choose the reefs which are quiet D. choose other kinds of fish as neighbors
23. Which seems to have to do with the number of butterflies?
A. The species of grass in grasslands. B. The species of trees in grasslands.
C. The number of flowers in grasslands. D. The number of animals in grasslands.

I grew up in London, a place where there are so many people of different nationalities and races. So when I left London to start university, it came as a surprise that the student community was so divided. Chinese students, especially, stood apart. They cooked Chinese food every day and only socialized with their Chinese friends. At first I wondered “Why are Chinese students so eager to come to the UK, yet not willing to make friends with the local students and learn about their culture?” But then I studied in China for a year, and I realized that all the foreign students there behaved in exactly the same way. They ate in foreign restaurants and only socialized with students from their own countries. It was a shock. Why were so many foreigners going to China if they didn’t want to meet local people and learn about their culture?
Our natural instinct (本能) when we move abroad into an unfamiliar environment is to seek out the things we know and distance ourselves from those we don’t. So we look for friends of the same nationality or race, and eat the food from our home country. I was not different from other foreign students in the beginning, but I tried to change. So every day I played basketball with my Chinese peers after class, I had meals with them in the campus canteen and I joined a band with other Asian students. Those are probably the three best ways to make friends when there is a risk of language or cultural barriers getting in the way: play together, embrace (欣然接受) each other’s food and share your passions.
24. When the author started university, he was surprised that ______.
A. there were so many Chinese students studying in the UK B. it was difficult to find a suitable student community
C. London was crowded with people of different nationalities and races D. students mostly stayed with others of the same nationality or race
25. The reason why foreign students don’t like to make friends with local people is that ______.
A. they want to stick to what they know
B. they look for the things they know and keep themselves away from those they don’t
C. they don’t want to be involved into the local community
D. the local people are not friendly
26. What is the best way to join the local community in the author’s opinion? A. Sharing hobbies with local people. B. Teaching local people how to play music. C. Learning to cook local food. D. Visiting local families frequently.
27. What is the best title for this article?
A. Ways to make friends B. Respect cultural differences
C. Let’s embrace the unknown D. Difficulties in studying abroad

The number of people hiding their identity while surfing the web has risen in the past year.
Research shows that the level of “encrypted” internet activity has risen dramatically across the world, suggesting that millions of people have begun to use software that hides who they are while accessing the web. According to Sandvine, the technology networking company, hidden internet traffic in peak hours in Europe has been up to 6.1 per cent of all web activities compared with about 1.5 per cent a year earlier. In North America encrypted traffic went up to 3.8 per cent from 2.3 per cent a year earlier, while in Latin America it jumped to almost 10.4 per cent from 1.8 per cent.
Experts said that the changes in online behavior were the result of exposure(曝光) about widespread internet spying by intelligence agencies, such as that exposed by Edward Snowden, the US National Security Agency whistleblower.
“It will be interesting to see how these trends develop,” said Ernesto Van der Sar, the pen-name used by the editor-in-chief of Torrentfreak.com, the website that first reported the figures. “In any case, it’s clear that internet services and their users are becoming more aware of their privacy online, which is generally a good development.”
Last week Sir Tim Berners-Lee, the British inventor of the web, defended the right of agencies to spy on the internet for law enforcement (強(qiáng)制實(shí)施) . He said, “We have to figure out how to balance that against rights.”
28. The word “encrypted” in Paragraph Two has the closest meaning with ______.
A. false B. hidden C. cheating D. changed
29. Which area has seen the largest rise in “encrypted” internet activity?
A. Europe. B. North America. C. Latin America. D. Eastern Asia.
30. Why do more people hide their identity while surfing the web?
A. To cheat others. B. To have more fun.
C. To follow the fashion. D. To prevent their privacy being spied on.
31. What’s Sir Tim Berners-Lee’s opinion on some agencies’ spying on the internet?
A. It’s illegal. B. It’s totally right.
C. It’s against human rights. D. It’s acceptable to some degree.

Happiness is a decision. 36 Don’t make a happy time just a high point of your life--make everyday a high point. And this starts with a decision to do so and rise above chaos and a disappointing environment. Be happy during the ordinary moments, not for the exciting adventures.
★ Remove the Negative
Remove things in your life that are negative or no longer bring you joy anymore. 37
If you’ve put off cutting off relationships that are unpleasant, or feel that you’re stuck in a routine, start getting rid of negative influences.
★ Get Creative
Start a new hobby, or get out more in the world. When we constantly remain in our world or thoughts, we become an auto person. 38
★ Conquer Fear
39 This can defeat fear of heights, crowds and speaking up, so that you will become more confident. There is a ton of material to help you in this area. Also learning to be grateful will get your mind off problems.
★ 40
Find something you enjoy doing alone. This can be writing, traveling, painting, or serving others. If you don’t have anything, start now. ★ Forgive

As a mother, I believed my children were old enough to their rooms. But they thought 41 . My complaints were 42 on deaf ears. Very often a whole afternoon’s shouting 43 end with their tears. I realized I needed to 44 my methods of “mothering”.
One day while they were at school, I had great fun tidying their 45 . On their desks, in plain 46 , I left the cards “Dear Bill (the other card was 47 to Sarah), your room was messy and I’m sure you like it clean. Love, the House Fairy.” 48 arriving back, the children were 49 excited to receive the notes from the House Fairy. The next day, their rooms were fairly tidy. 50 , there was another note waiting for them, thanking them for their nice “gift” of a clean room and 51 asking them to play a certain violin piece. Each day, 52 notes would be written differently to keep the ideas 53 .
Sometimes the House Fairy would propose a little 54 . “If you can finish your homework and 55 your lessons before dinner, I’d like to watch a particular television program with you tonight.” Sometimes some colored markers or other little items would be left in 56 of well-done jobs.
57 I can’t remember how long “the House Fairy” continued leaving her love notes. When they were older, we used various versions of Post-Its. The bathroom mirror became the 58 centre of our home. Appointments, lesson schedules, and changes in plans could be posted.
We all benefited from and 59 the idea of sharing reminders and daily details of life through notes. I believe the true advantage of the House Fairy notes survives in our frequent and 60 communication.

Dear fellow students,
Good morning I’m Li Hua. I’m glad to have the chance to run for captain of the voluntary organization. If I can be the captain, I will do the following things to help the students in our school.
First of all, I, together with other volunteers, will clean the campus every Friday afternoon so that we can have a clean and peaceful environment. Secondly, in order to make full use of the learning resources, I will call on students to donate their used books to set up a small library, where everyone can come to get what they are interested in. Thirdly, we will visit the nursing house near our school regularly. In this way we can learn to love and care for others.
I think I am fit for the work. Please trust me!
That’s all. Thank you!

W: What kind of music do you like then?
M: Classical music.
Text 5
W: I don’t think holding a big party is a bad idea. I love big parties. What’s more, we should pay back all our friends who invited us to their parties.
M: But big parties are so expensive. Don’t you think a smaller one would be more practical?
Text 6
M: Let’s have a party.
W: Good idea! When shall we have it?
M: What about Sunday evening?
W: That’s great. And where shall we have it?
M: I’m thinking of your flat.
W: Oh, you know what my landlady is like. She won’t let us have a party there.
M: Then let’s ask Gillis. Perhaps we can have it in his flat.

M: And you will have to please them, too.
W: Well, you have to do that in any job, don’t you?
M: That’s true. What do your parents think about it?

M: Then what will you do?
W: Well… I haven’t decided yet. But I usually get my own way in the end.

During my last year of school, I was given the opportunity to visit an advisor and I drove her crazy with my choices.
My first choice was a chocolate tester. I discovered that chocolate testers earn a lot of money, so I was sure I had found my dream job. However, when I found out that chocolate testers don’t just sit around eating chocolate all day and they are also involved in the marketing and promotion of the product, I finally gave it up.
Next, I thought of becoming a football referee (裁判員). I had loved football since I was young, but I couldn’t play well. Anyway, it seems that referees must be able to run 2.5 miles in less than twelve minutes and they are required to take exams throughout their training. On top of that, only after many years of experience—and if they are lucky—do they get the chance to referee big professional matches. So, my dream of showing David Beckham a red card disappeared.
Finally, I had this perfect idea of becoming a dog stylist after I realized how much our dog stylist was being paid. However, once, while she was styling our Philipo, I noticed he tried to bite her. As you can imagine, that really put me off.
All this research made me realize I had a gift for collecting information, so I had decided to become a journalist.
