The Owl Count
Annie slept in the front of the seat with her father drove through the darkness. ”We’re almost there!” Dad announced cheerfully. “Soon well be observing and counting owls at the state park.” Yawning, Annie nodded and smiled. The time was 4:30 a.m. Looking out into the darkness, Annie remembered learning in School that most owls are active at night, when they hunt for food. During the day they sleep in hard-to-find spots.
“Dad, why do you need to count owls?” she asked. “It’s important for the scientists to have current information about bird populations,” he explained. “We want to know which birds have decreased in number and whether any newDad pulled into the parking lot of the state park. Then, with flashing in hand, they began their hike into the woods. Annie zipped up her coat and tried to keep from trembling. She had not expected the morning to be so frigid. Luckily her gloves were in her pocket.
Suddenly Annie’s father stooped and gestured for her to be still. Obeying, Annie did not take another step. She thought she heard a low crying up head. “That’s certainly a screech owl,” her father whispered. “Let’s get a look at it.” After looking more closely, Annie could see that it was a small owl. Sensing danger, the owl narrowed its eyes and pulled its feathers tightly against its body. Annie carefully wrote down in her notebook that they had seen a screech owl.
Walking a little farther, they came to a tall oak tree. “This looks like a perfect spot to attract owls,” Dad said. “I’m going to play a recording of common call of the barred owl. Maybe we can get one to answer.’ Annie could hardly believe her ear. The recorded all sounded as if the bird were asking, “who cooks for you?” Moments later Annie thought she heard a return call in distance. She held her breath and waited. Suddenly a huge bird landed very quietly on a branch above them.
Annie had long forgotten how cold it was. She stood in wonder, shining her flashlight on the bird and studying it carefully. The barred owl was nearly tow feet tall. Gray feathers surrounded its dark eyes. The bird did not matter. Annie would never forge the image of the powerful barred owl.

Indoor Plants
As with any house guests, indoor plants require a certain amount of basic, regular attention if they are going to feel at home. The first consideration when purchasing plants is to make reasonably sure that they are suitable for the condition in which they are going to be housed.
A general rule for most plans being brought indoors for the first time isPlants love company. When plants are growing together, they create an atmosphere of damp around themselves which is far more beneficial than hot dry conditions. A group of plants will also present a more pleasing picture and provide an opportunity for a creative arrangement. There is no secret to this. Just rely on your natural feeling for harmony.
Watering and feeding plants are probably the two areas of care that are the least well understood, but, again, if you follow a few simple rules, your plants should do well. Cold Slightly warm water is therefore the answer. It is usually better to pour water on to the soil on the surface of the pot rather than put the water into the pot holder at the bottom. Avoid giving small amount of water at regular intervals- it is much better to wet the soil right through the pot in one go and then to allow it to dry noticeably before giving it a further watering.
The majority of indoor plants will be in active growth from March until October, and during this time, the established ones will benefit from regular feeding. This may mean feeding with a weak liquid fertilizer(肥料) at each watering or at intervals of a week or ten days with fertilizer at a standard strength. It is important, however, to ensure that plants are not fed when growth is inactive, when the soil in the pot is dry, or too soon after the plants has been potted up.
63. In Paragraph 2, the author mainly tells us to___________.
A. but plants that help clean indoor air
B. create a new environment with plants
C. put plants on the sunny side of the room
D. make sure of suitable conditions for plants
64. What’s the benefit of plants growing together?
A. It provides owners good company.
B. It helps the air around them slightly wet.
C. It makes it convenient to look after them.
D. It allows owners to draw a pleasant picture.
65. While watering the plants, what should we remember to do?
A. Use water that is a little warm.
B. Pour the water into the pot holder.
C. Give small amount of water at one time.
D. Consider further watering in dry weather.
66. What is the best time to feed the plants?
A. When the soil is dry.
B. When their growth is active.
C. When the temperature is high.
D. When they have just been planted.
D
As people have accurately observed, smiles are absent from early photographs. In 1852, for instance, a girl sat for her Daguerrotype, her head slightly turned, giving the camera an unsmiling look. She is preserved forever as a very serious girl indeed. Charles Darwin, a loving and playful parent, looks frozen in photographs. Why did our ancestors, from unknown sitters for family portraits(肖像画) to the great and famous, because so sad in front of the camera?
The severity is everywhere in Victorian photographs. However, you don’t have to look very long at these unsmiling old photos to see how incomplete the seemingly obvious answer is-that they are freezing their faces in order to keep still for the long exposure times. In Julia Margaret Cameron’s Portrait of Tennyson, the poet dreams, his face a shadowed mask of genius. This is not simply a technique. It’s an emotional choice.
People in the past did not go around in a continual state ofPeople who sat for early photographs understood it as a significant moment. Sitting for the camera was cheaper, quicker and meant that people who never had a chance to be painted could now be photographed; but people seemed to have taken it seriously in the same way they would be a painted portrait. Like a portrait painting, it was intended as a timeless record of a person.
To me those unsmiling people probably had as much fun as we do, if not more. But they felt no need to prove it with pictures. Instead, when whey sat for a photograph, they thought about time, death and memory. Perhaps we should stop smiling sometimes, too.
67. What do we know about the people in Victorian times?
A. They laid importance on religious events.
B. They were skillful at portrait painting.
C. They valued their family life.
D. They enjoyed themselves.
68. The author mentions Portrait of Tennyson in Paragraph 2 to__________.
A. prove a theory B. support his opinion
C. introduce a painting D. describe a technique
69. The author thinks early people look frozen in old photos because____.
A. they lived in a traditional society
B. they had to stay still for a long time
C. they regarded photography important
D. they held negative views about painting
70. What is the author’s attitude towards people not smiling in old photos?
A. Skeptical. B. Critical. C. Neutral. D. Positive.

根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。
According to statistics published by the University of Scranton, about 45 percent of Americans usually make New Year’s resolutions------and the most popular resolution is losing weight. Of those who make resolutions, a mere 8 percent achieve them.
___71___ Are we just setting ourselves up for failure? Learn how to make realistic resolutions and how to overcome the roadblocks along the way.
Setting a resolution to lose pounds isn’t a goal that’s achievable now. It may be a good long-term goal. ___72___ Registered dietitian Elisa Zied says”… to be real when you make a resolution. It’s okay to shoot for the stars like making a resolution, but why not set a smaller goal and train smart?”
The same concept applies to weight loss. ___73___ These goals should help develop healthy habits that will finally help achieve your long-term resolution.
Notice that these goals are simple and achievable. “Instead of going from zero to 60, from never going to the gym to going four to five times a week, why not start with three days a week, get consistent and build from there,” Zied says. Set yourself up for success and map out your course by making appointments with yourself to be active. ___74___
You also need to be aware of your current exercise and eating habits to make achievable goals. Keeping a diary of your food and exercise habits can help. Record everything you eat and drink for three to five days and review it. ___75___For example, if you notice a tendency to snack on unhealthy fare, set a goal to eat a fruit or vegetable with each snack. Building on these smaller goals over time can help you achieve your long-term goal.
why do so many of us fail to achieve our goals?
you notice your not-so-good habits, start fixing them.
between one to three weekly goals that you want to achieve.
lutions usually involve a commitment to sticking to your goals.
ver, in order to reach it, you need to take baby steps to get it down.
you treat your goals like set appointment, you’re more likely to achieve them.
ng weight, as well as getting a better job, is among the most popular resolutions for adults.

I first met Paul Newman in 1968, when George Roy Hill, the director of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, introduced us in New York City. When the studio didn’t want me for the film - it wanted somebody as well known as Paul - he stood up for me. I don’t know how many people would have done that; they would have listened to their agents or the studio powers.
The friendship that grew out of the experience of making that film and The Sting four years later had its root in the fact that although there was an age difference, we both came from a tradition of theater and live TV. We were respectful of craft(技艺)and focused on digging into the characters we were going to play. Both of us had the qualities and virtues that are typical of American actors: humorous, aggressive, and making fun of each other - but always with an underlying affection. Those were also at the core(核心)of our relationship off the screen.
We shared the brief that if you’re fortunate enough to have success, you should put something back - he with his Newman’s Own food and his Hole in the Wall camps for kids who are seriously ill, and me with Sundance and the institute and the festival. Paul and I didn’t see each other all that regularly, but sharing that brought us together. We supported each other financially and by showing up at events.
I last saw him a few months ago. He’d been in zxx.k and out of the and I both knew what the deal was,and we didn’t talk about was a relationship that didn’t need a lot of words.
was the studio unwilling to give the role to author at first?
Newman wanted it. studio powers didn’t like his agent.
wasn’t famous enough. director recommended someone else.
did Paul and the author have a lasting friendship?
were of the same dge. worked in the same theater.
were both good actors. han similar charactertics.
does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 3 refer to?
r belief. r care for chileden.
r success. r support for each other.
is the author’s purpose in writing the test?
show his love of films. remember a friend.
introduce a new movie. share his acting experience.

Terrafugia Inc. said Monday that its new flying car has completed its first flight, bringing the company closer to its goal of selling the flying car within the next year. The vehicle-named the Transition – has two seats， four wheels and wings that fold up so it can be driven like a car. The Transition, which flew at 1,400 feet for eight minutes last month, can reach around 70 miles per hour on the road and 115 in the air. It flies using a 23-gallon tank of gas and bums 5 gallons per hour in the air. On the ground, it gets 35 miles per gallon.
Around 100 people have already put down a $10,000 deposit to get a Transition when they go on sale, and those numbers will likely rise after Terrafugia introduces the Transition to the public later this week at the New York Auto Show. But don’t expect it to show up in too many driveways. It’s expected to cost $279, it won’t help if you’re stuck in traffic. The car needs a runway.
Inventors have been trying to make flying cars since the 1930s, according to Robert Mann, an airline industry expert. But Mann thinks Terrafugia has come closer than anyone to making the flying car a reality. The govemment has already permitted the company to use special materials to make it easier for the vehicle to fly.

When a leafy plant is under attack ，it doesn’t sit quietly.

These chemicals come from the injured parts of the plant and seem to be an the plants pump through the air is a mixture of chemicals known as volatile organic compounds,VOCs for short.
Scientists have found that all kinds of plants give out VOCs when being attacked ’s a plant’s way of crying is anyone listening?Apuse we can watch the neighbours react.

In study after study,it appears that these chemical conversations help the neighbors damage is usually more serious on the first plant,but the neighbors ,relatively speaking ,stay safer because they heard the alarm and knew what to do.
Does this mean that plants talk to each other? Scientists don’t know. Maybe the first plant just made a cry of pain or was sending a message to its own branches, and so, in effect, was talking to itself. Perhaps the neighbors just happened to “overhear” the cry. So information was exchanged, but it wasn’t a true, intentional back and forth.
