         Entering a university is an important part of a person's life. Today, many people go to study and train for
    a future job in subjects like law, medicine or education. But the university is not a modem invention. It has a
    history that is over a thousand years.
         The world's oldest university, AL-Azhar, is in Cario, Egypt. It was first built as a mosque for religion
    (宗院) in A.D.972. A few years later, learners and teachers began meeting in the mosque. They read and
    talked about the subject of law. Around 988, leaders in the city of Cario decided to open up a school for higher
    learning and the University of AL-Azhar was founded.
         At AL-Azhar, there were many university 'firsts'. Different subjects were set up. The earliest ones taught
    at AL-Azhar were in law and religion. In a course, students read and studied with the teacher, but there was,
    also free discussion. Often, students and teachers talked about a topic, and there was no 'right' answer. Finally,
    famous teachers from around the world came to AL-Azhar to teach and do deep studies on the subjects they
    were interested in. At the university, people studied the past, but it was also a place for exchanging new ideas.
         Over a thousand years later, AL-Azhar is still an important university in the world. Its library keeps more
    than 250,000 of the world's oldest and most valuable books.Today, many of the world's most important
    universities such as Oxford and Harvard still follow the traditions started at AL-Azhar.
    1. From the first paragraph we know that ______.
    [     ]
    A. universities are important to the city life
    B. the university is a quite new invention
    C. university education may help a person find a job
    D. the university has a history of a thousand years
    2. AL-Azhar was first built for ______.
    [     ]
    A. education
    B. religion
    C. a meeting
    D. law
    3. Which of the following are the earliest subjects taught in the University of AL-Azhar?
    [     ]
    A. Education and medicine.
    B. Religion and law.
    C. Free discussion.
    D. History and' tradition.
    4. Choose the right order according to the passage.
        ①Then the heads of the city thought it the idea for a school for higher learning.
        ②One of the earliest subjects taught there was law.
        ③A mosque was built in Cario in A.D. 972.
        ④Teachers from around the world came to the university to study and teach.
        ⑤The mosque was used as a meeting place for teachers and learners.

         John, 83, got on a Chicago bus and saw a sign saying that senior citizens could ride for half fare. When
    he dropped his three quarters in the box, the driver asked him for ID card. John took out an ID card. "You
    need a special CTA (Chicago Transit Authority) card, "said the driver. John didn't have it because he lives in

    C. When farmers cut down trees, tigers can no longer hide and hunt
    D. Steve says that we can help by creating more space for animals and plants
    E. A species can become endangered for different reasons
                                                              Are we endangered?
         Steve Jones is an environmental expert who tries to keep animals and plants from becoming endangered.
    "We are not alone in the world. We human beings could not survive (生存) without all the plants and animals
    around us. 1           , but we don't always do as we say," Steve says as he takes us on a tour of Green Park
    in Birmingham. Many of the earth's plants and animals have already died out, and several other species are
    endangered. If we want to live a better life and have a bright future, we must learn to act in ways that do not
    harm other living things.
         If we know more about what causes endangerment, we may be able to take measures (采取措施) before
    it is too late. 2           . Animals and plants must have a habitat, or home, which is comfortable and clean,
    and where there is enough food and other resources. They are all used to their environment; that is, they have
    learnt how to live successfully in their habitat. When the habitat of a species is changed or destroyed, the
    animal or plant had to either adapt to the change or find a new home. If this is not possible, the species becomes
    endangered. If a new species arrives, the animals and plants of the habitats must change again. 3          , some
    of the original (原始的) species may become endangered. A species may also die out if humans or other animals
    use too much of a plant or kill too many animals.

         People believe that climbing can do good to health. Where can you learn the skill of climbing then? If you
    think that you have to go to the mountains to learn how to climb, you're wrong. Many Americans are learning
    to climb in city gyms. Here, people are learning on special climbing walls. The climbing wall goes straight up
    and has small holding places for hands and feet.
         How do people climb the wall? To climb, you need special shoes and a harness (保护带) around your chest
    to hold you. There are ropes (绳索) tied to your harness. The ropes hold you in place so that you don't fall.
    A beginner's wall is usually about 15 feet high, and you climb straight up. There are small pieces of metal that
    stick out for you to stand on and hold on to. Sometimes it' s easy to see the new piece of metal. Sometimes,
    it's not. The most difficult part is to control your fear. It's normal (正常的) for humans to be afraid of falling,
    so it's difficult not to feel fear. But when you move away from the wall, the harness and the ropes hold you,
    and you begin to feel safe. You move slowly until you reach the top. 
         Climbing attracts people because-it's good exercise for almost everyone. You use your whole body,
    especially your arms and legs. This sport gives your body a complete workout. When you climb, both your
    mind and your body can become stronger.
