At one time or another most farmers have problems with mice. This is especially true for grain farmers. Mice eat a lot of grain. They also carry diseases (疾病) ,which people can get from eating or touching grain the mice have made dirty. Farmers can use special grain storage buildings or they can kill the mice. However, both methods can be costly. Farmers must buy materials to build the special grain storage buildings or chemical poisons to kill the mice. Here is a way to kill mice without spending a lot of money. It is a simple but effective kind of mouse trap. The method is first used by some farmers in the west African country of Mali. An agricultural expert in Mali reported about the Mali mouse trap in a magazine. The expert reported that his gardener caught 150 mice in just one night. The gardener used four traps. The trap is easy to make. First, remove the top from a 20 liter metal or plastic container (容器). Put it in a hole in the ground. The top edge of the container should be the level with the surface of the ground. Fill the container with water to within eight centimeters of the top. Add tiny pieces of grain wastes. They should float on the water. Also put some wastes on the ground near the trap. During the night, mice will come out to eat the grain wastes. They will fall into the container and drown. Replace the food in the trap every night. |
1. According to the passage, _____ used the mouse trap first. |
A. an agricultural expert in the west Africa B. farmers in the United States C. an American gardener D. farmers in Mali |
2. What does the passage mainly tell us? |
A. A simple and effective method used by farmers to kill mice. B. Methods used by farmers to kill mice. C. Farmers have problems with mice. D. How to kill mice. |
3. Which of the following can't protect grain from being eaten by mice? |
A. A special grain storage building. B. Chemical poisons. C. A mouse trap. D. A hole in the ground. |

Today we talk about proverbs. A proverb is a short, well- known saying that expresses a common truth or belief. Proverbs are found in most cultures and are often very old. In American history, Benjamin Franklin was famous for his proverbs. He lived in the 1700s and was a leader of the American Revolution against English rule. He was also a scientist, inventor and writer. Franklin published a book called Poor Richard's Almanac. He included many proverbs he had heard or created. Some of them are still used today, like:" Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise." Here are other examples of proverbs that Americans use. The first ones are about love. Some people say, " All is fair in love and war." They mean that anything you do in a relationship or in battle is acceptable. Another proverb about love is," Absence makes the heart grow fonder." This means you love someone even more when he or she is far away. But other people say,"out of sight, out of mind."You may not even think about that person when he or she is not with you. Which of these proverbs do you think is most true? Another proverb says " Love is blind." In other words, when you are in love with someone, you may refuse to see anything bad about that person. Some people are only interested in having a relationship with someone who is very good-looking. You might tell them that "Beauty is only skin deep." Your girlfriend may be lovely to look at, but she may also have some bad qualities. Or your boyfriend is a wonderful person, but not good-looking. So what a person looks like is not really important. Sadly, we have no more time for this program. So we must say,"All good things must come to an end." Thanks for listening. |

Rem Koolhaas founded the Office for Metropolitan Architecture ( OMA) in 1975 together with three other people. Koolhaas graduated from the Architectural Association in London.

What do you do if you suddenly have the chance to visit Australia for the first time but only have one day to spend there? Why not just stay in Sydney, I advise. You'll find you can do a lot in Australia from there. And here's how: Wander along the South Circular Quay and chances are you'll come across an Aboriginal (土著居民) or two playing a didgeridoo (迪吉里杜管) But there's not much left of the Aboriginal heritage (遗产) in Sydney. It's a deep wound which even now remains very painful. A more exciting way to experience Aboriginal culture is to take a trip on the Tribal Warrior, a respected old pearling lugger (打捞珍珠的小帆船). Now it is being used as a tourist ship offering tours of Sydney Harbor. The tours, run by Aboriginals, take in some of the most popular sights of the harbor( such as the Sydney Opera House). Of all the sporting heroes Australia has produced, Sir Donald Bradman is widely considered the greatest. So it's nice to meet him-or at least a life-size model of him-face to face in the imaginative little museum within the famous Sydney Cricket (板球) Ground. The stadium has been hosting cricket matches since the 1850s. You can also meet ancient worthies such as Frank Spofforth and Tiger O'Reilly here. You really don't need to go any further than Sydney to experience the excitement of one of the country's great national hobbies, surfing. Bondi Beach is in a suburb (郊区) of Sydney easily reachable from the center. What a life! You can leave the office and within half an hour be out riding those waves at Bondi. Never surfed before? Head for Lets Go Surfing, a Bondi school offering surf classes for beginners and experienced surfers alike. If you've ever been interested in surfing, do it here. |
1. By taking a trip on the Tribal Warrior, you can ______ . |
A. buy pearls from Aboriginals B. see the Sydney Opera House C. learn how to play a didgeridoo D. circle around the Sydney city |
2. What do we learn about the Sydney Cricket Cround? |
A. We can talk with Australian sporting heroes there. B. We can visit a museum owned by Bradman there. C. It is a famous cricket stadium with a long history. D. It has been used as a cricket museum since 1850. |
3. From the last paragraph, we can learn that ______. |
A. Bondi Beach is a bit far from Sydney's center B. Lets Go Surfing is a surf school for beginners only C. surfing is the most popular sport in Australia D. people living in Sydney can go surfing after work |
4. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? |
A. How to Do Australia in a Day B. Most Popular Sights of Sydney Harbor C. Let's Experience Australian Culture D. Holiday Experiences at Bondi |

It doesn't have to be war. But sometimes, it is. As the caretakers of the family, mothers mainly control the family's course through the trouble of their daughters' adolescent (青春期的) years. As such, they often feel it their duty to make sure that each member survives and grows stronger. As a result, mothers often feel a greatly increased burden (负担 ) during their daughters' adolescence. It's far from easy to live with someone who is experiencing rapid changes in how she looks,thinks and feels. Mostly, girls' changing bodies usually make their mothers uncomfortable. Just when girls are turning into shapely young women, mothers are often in or near midlife. It may be difficult to live with adolescent daughters who remind them of their ever diminishing (减少的 ) youth. Mothers mainly describe feeling scrutinized (细察) by their teens. As one mother put it," Living with my daughter is like having my own personal X-ray machine." This is because your daughter's effort to develop her own individuality (个性) drives her to examine your every action. This is totally different from her early childhood, when you often could do no wrong or were the"best mother in the world". Some women have a hard time dealing with trouble, so their teenage daughters' challenging behavior is particularly unwelcome. Thinking back to when your daughter was a little girl, you probably expected her to get into quarrels with others. Since your daughter has reached adolescence, you may believe that your daughter should be beyond all that. She should know how to get along with people-especially with you. Remember that this period passes, and mothers and daughters often end up close friends. But for now, you're the adult, so enjoy the sufferings. |
1. According to the first paragraph, the "war" should happen between _____. |
A. mothers and fathers |
2. What does the second paragraph mainly tell us? |
A. Dealing with trouble may hurt mothers. B. Mothers become older and older. C. Daughters' growth affects mothers. D. Mothers often fall behind society's development. |
3. Why do mothers often feel scrutinized by their daughters? |
A. Daughters have X-ray machines. B. Daughters are building their own personalities. C. Daughters are strict with mothers' appearance. D. Daughters are making jokes on mothers. |
4. What is mothers' expectation of their adolescent daughters? |
A. They are friendly to people. B. They can face life's challenges. C. They make quarrels with others. D. They should do no wrong. |
