         Having Fun "Growing" and "Stealing"? Recently, an Internet game has become a new fashion among
    young office workers and students. People can "farm" on a piece of "land" and "grow", "sell" or even "steal"

         Butterflies are common all over the world but the ones in hot countries are usually bigger and more brightly
    colored than those in cooler countries, and there are more different kinds. Usually the male (雄性) butterfly is
    more brightly colored than the female (雌性).The females have bigger and heavier bodies because they carry
    the eggs. The gay (艳丽的) colors of the male help to attract the female and the dark colors of the female make
    them difficult to be caught by enemies before they have laid their eggs.
         Some butterflies have bright colors on their wings (翅膀) which show when they fly, but when they stop
    on a tree or leaf, they close their wings. On their wings there are green and brown marks which look like the
    tree or leaves. They are difficult to see. The best example of this is the Dead Leaf Butterfly. When its wings
    are closed, it really looks like a dead leaf. There are even marks that look like the holes in a dead leaf. When a
    bird is running after a butterfly, and it closes its wings, it seems to have disappeared completely.
         Many butterflies have round marks on their wings that look like eyes. When they are resting, and their wings
    are folded, these can't be seen. When a bird sees one, and begins to attack it, the butterfly opens its wings. The
    bird thinks that it sees two eyes staring (凝视) at it, and, frightened, it flies away.
    1. The male butterflies are usually ______ than the female butterflies.
    [     ]
    A. heavier
    B. bigger
    C. more brightly

    3. There are green and brown marks which look like the tree or leaves on the butterflies' wings
         in order ______.
    [     ]
    A. to see themselves
    B. not to be found
    C. show themselves
    D. to be showed
    4. When a bird attacks a butterfly, the butterfly may ______.

         Each nation has many good people who help to take care of others. For example, some high school and
    college students in the United States often spend many hours as volunteers in hospitals, orphanages or homes
    for the aged. They read books to the people in these places, or they just visit them and play games with them
    or listen to their problems.
         Other young volunteers go and work in the homes of people who are sick or old. They paint, clean up, or
    repair their houses, do their shopping or mow their lawns. For boys who no longer have fathers there is an
    organization called Big Brothers. College students and other men take these boys to baseball games or on
    fishing trips and help them to get to know things that boys usually learn from their fathers.
         Each city has a number of clubs where boys and girls can go to play games or learn crafts (手艺). Some
    of these clubs show movies or organize short trips to the mountains, the beaches, museums or other places
    of interest. Most of these clubs use a lot of high school and college students as volunteers because they are
    young enough to remember the problems of younger boys and girls. Volunteers believe that some of the
    happiest people in the world are those who help to bring happiness to others.
    1. Where can you often find volunteers in the United States?

         Now and then we all get ill. Then we usually go to see a doctor. Doctors know a lot about what makes
    us ill. They may give us something to take. The medicine often makes us well again.
         But sometimes the doctor's medicine doesn't work. A sick person does not get well. The pain will not
    go away. This happened to one man. He was in hospital, but he was not getting well. Then he found a new
    "doctor" inside himself. This "doctor" was his own sense of humor. He saw funny films. He read funny
    books. And something wonderful happened. Laughing took away his pain. Then he was able to sleep and
    rest. His own happy feeling helped him to feel well again. He said laughing was his best "medicine". His
    doctor thought so, too.
         Another man was ill, and he had a terrible pain in his back. The doctors could not stop it from hurting.
    So the man began to "Picture" his pain. In his head he "drew" a picture of a dog. He imagined it as a real
    dog. And he made friends with the dog. And his pain went away!
         These stories may surprise you. But more and more people are getting well in this way. So visit the
    "doctor" inside your own head and you can stay happy and well.
    1. Does medicine always work?

    4. Why does the writer ask us to visit the "doctor" inside our head?
