ANIMALS IN DANGER!
How much do you know about animals in danger? Read the short passages below.
10 million reptiles are killed every year. Their skin is used to make fashion items, like handbags and shoes.
The main reason whales are in danger is that man kills them for their meat and oils. Orangutans live in rainforests. They want to live in peace, but people are cutting down the trees for wood and farming. This is a big problem because the trees are the orangutan?s homes.
They are very difficult to find and study because they are shy animals. They are also our cousins! There isn?t enough bamboo for pandas to eat because man has cut down nearly half the bamboo forests. Research has shown that there are only about 600 giant pandas left in the wild in the world. Most of them live in China.
Some people steal the turtle?s eggs to eat. The skin of the turtle is used to make some jewellery. In the Far East, rhinoceros? horns are used to make medicines. They are also used to make ornaments.
So what can you do to help protect them?
●Try not to buy jewellery made from animals. ●Try to keep the earth clean and free from pollution. ●Tell other people about what you?ve learned. 50. Reptiles? skin is used to make __________.
A. fashion items B. oils C. some jewellery D. ornaments 51. There are fewer homes for orangutans because _________________.

I have become very interested in the importance of memory in our lives. Most people know that the brain controls how the body works. The brain also controls what the mind thinks, how we feel, how we work on information, and how we understand things. I am interested in how people remember, what they remember, and how they use and improve their memories.
Memory plays an important role in learning and thinking. People have different abilities to remember. Stress, fatigue, emotional problems, and illness can decrease the ability to remember. General good health contributes to good memory. Practice also improves memory. People gather and remember information in different ways. Some people remember colors or smells or sounds. Other people find it easier to remember spoken words. While still others remember printed words easily.
We have two kinds of memory — long-term memory and short-term memory. Long-term memory is the ability to remember events from the distant past. Long-term memory is often the strongest and lasts throughout a person?s life. One kind of long-term memory is called “screen memory.” This means that many experiences we get are put together in the mind as one memory.
Short-term memory is the ability to remember events in the recent past, for example, the name of someone you met at a party last night. Short-term memory is often challenged by stress, illness, and aging. Many of us have, or have had, grandparents who?re able to remember events from their childhood , but are unable to remember what happened yesterday. Most people can only remember seven items in order. This is why telephone numbers, for example, are seven digits ( digits: 0-9 ) long.
Not all memories are correct, but they all tell us something about the person who is doing the remembering. The memory may tell us what the rememberer likes or dislikes, what he or she wishes, and it may also tell us about his or her fears. The study of memory may also provide information about the health or illness of a person. This is a very exciting frontier in biological science. There is still a lot for us to learn.

Someone says that it is unfair to judge the book by its cover, or the man?s intelligence and abilities by his looks. It is true that Albert Einstein was not a picture of elegance (优雅) in his shapeless sweaters and baggy pants; and his refusal to wear ties and socks never hid his genius. But genius has its own special advantages, and Einstein never had to worry about people?s opinions about him. Among ordinary people, looks do mean something. While a man?s clothes don?t say anything about his intelligence, they say plenty about his personality, about his judgment （判断力）and about the opinion that he has of himself.
“If that man had any sense,” reasons a possible employer(雇主), “Wouldn?t he try to look attractive enough to make me want to hire him? Is he too lazy to make the effort? What kind of a worker can he be? Does he feel so bad about himself, and could his judgment be correct? Perhaps he doesn?t really want to work, or like to be taken seriously. Is he a trouble maker? Or is it just that he is, after all, stupid?”
The same kind of question will come to the mind of anyone who sees a person wearing, by

chance, the wrong kind of clothes for any special events. The man who appears at a party or a reception in a not-too-clean shirt, without tie, or at a business meeting with two-days growth of beard (胡须)will never be mistaken for an absent-minded genius. People will think it is true that he is rude, arrogant (傲慢的), or anxious to be “different”. Right or not, everyone reaches a decision about his personality and situation. If the decision is wrong, the man has nobody to blame but himself; he has delivered the wrong message.
57. What does the underlined phrase “had any sense ” mean? A. understood well B. had a clear meaning C. realized D. felt 58. Which of the following is NOT true?
A.People are very likely to judge a person by looks.
B. People?s judgment about a person is greatly influenced by his looks. C. People may make wrong decisions if they judge a person by his looks.
D. A person?s looks can hide his intelligence, personality or something else in some ways. 59. Which of the following can be the title for this passage?
A. How to Look Attractive B. Clothes Make A Man C. Never Judge A Book by Its Cover D. How Clothes Make A Man
