         I went home one Saturday afternoon in the autumn of 1993 to get some work done in the garden. While
    sweeping leaves on the ground, my five-year-old son Nick came over and asked me to write something on
    a piece of paper to make a sign for him.
         "What for?" I asked.
         "I'm going to sell some of my stones," he answered.
         Nick was fascinated with stones and had collected many stones from all over.
         "I'm too busy to do that for you. Go and ask your mum for help," I said.
         A short time later, Nick, returned with a sign, reading, "Stones, One Dollar Each". He took the sign, a
    small chair and 4 of his best stones and walked to the road in front of our garden. There he put the stones
    in a line and sat down on the chair.
         After half an hour, nobody passed by. I walked to him and asked him to go back, but he didn't.
         Another half hour later, a small car came down the road. I watched as Nick stood up, holding his sign up.
    A woman rolled down a window and read the sign. I couldn't hear their talk, but I saw the woman turn to the
    driver and the man reach for his pocket.

         You may have heard of the famous saying, "East or West, home is the best."
         What does the word "home" mean to you? How do you say the word in French? In Chinese? In your
    language? Although people usually know what the word means, it sometimes has no exact translation. It's
    not surprising, because the idea of home is"different from country to country, and from person to person.
    A home is more than a roof and four walls. It's the cooking, eating, talking, playing and sleeping that go
    on inside. And at home you usually feel safe and relaxed.
         Homes look different in different countries. They also have different things inside. For example, in cold
    northern Europe, there's a fire in the living room or kitchen and all the chairs face it. In the south, where
    the sun shines a lot and it's more important to keep the heat out, there are small windows and cool stone
    floors.
         We asked some people about their homes.
         How often do people move house in your country?
         "In my country many people don't stay in one place for a very long time. They often move every ten
    years or so."
                                                                                                                           -Cherry, Boston, USA.
         What a e features (特征) of homes in your country?
         "In Britain, even in town, there's always a garden. We have separate bedrooms and living rooms. But we
    don't often have balconies (阳台). The weather isn't warm enough!" 
                                                                                                                            -Pat, Exeter, England
    1. The word "home" sometimes has no exact translation because _____.
    A. people can't find this word in the dictionary
    B. no one knows what it is
    C. it has different meanings in different countries
    D. people can't understand each other very well
    2. According to the passage, at home, you can do everything except _____.
    A. making friends
    B. cooking and eating
    C. playing and talking
    D. sleeping and relaxing
    3. Why is it important to keep the heat out of the houses in southern Europe? 
    A. Because they want to breathe fresh air outside.
    B. Because there's a fire in the living room.
    C. Because they wear heavy clothes all day long.
    D. Because the sun there shines a lot.
    4. From the second paragraph, what kind of homes people have depends on _____.
    A. whether they are rich or not

         A fish that lives in America can live out. of water for months at a time, similar to how animals got used
    to land millions of years ago, a new study shows.
         The Mangrove Rivulus, a kind of little fish, lives in small pools of water. When their living place dries up,
    they live. on the land, said Scott Taylor, a researcher in Florida.
         The fish can grow as large as three inches. They group together and breathe air through their skin before
    they can find water again.
         The new scientific discovery came during a trip.
         "We were travelling for fun. and one day I kicked over a log (圆木) and the fish came out," Taylor told
    reporters by telephone. He said he would make his study on the fish known to the public in an American
    magazine early next year.
         In lab tests, Taylor said he found the fish can live up to 66 days out of water without eating.
         Some other fish can live out of water for a short period of time. The walking catfish found in Southeast
    Asia can stay on land for hours at a time, while lungfish (肺鱼) found in Australia, Africa and South America
    can live out of water, but only in a not active (活波的) way. But no other known fish can be out of water as
    long as the Mangrove Rivulus and keep active, according to Patricia Wright, a biologist at a Canadian
    University.
         More studies of the fish may tell how animals changed over time.
         "These animals live in conditions similar to those millions of years ago, when animals began to move from
    water onto land," Wright said.
    1. The Mangrove Rivulus is a type of fish that _____.
    A. lives on land in Africa

    A. breathe through its skin
    B. be found in Asia
    C. keep alive out of water

         Many kinds of birds live in the United States, but the number of the birds is becoming smaller every year.
    One of the leading reasons is the growing number of pet cats. By keeping your pet cats in your home, you
    can help give birds a better possible chance to live.
         Of the 90 million pet cats in this country, about two-thirds are allowed to go outside. It is said that these
    cats kill hundreds of millions of birds each year, as well as billions of small animals such as rabbits and field
    mice.
         They can also bring illness to the animals that live in people's yard (院子), further weakening the health
    of the natural populations.
         Allowing pet cats to go outside is not just bad for birds and wildlife, it's also bad for the cats themselves.
    Outdoor cats can get sick very easily. They are in danger from traffic and attacks (攻击) from other animals.
    In fact, outdoor cats usually don't live past the age of five, while indoor cats often live to be 17 or older.
         Keep your pet cat inside! If you raise a young cat, it's your duty to let it play inside.
    Problem The number of birds is becoming 1._________; at the same time,many pet cats are in
