The blue tits (山雀) have been inspecting the nest-box again this year. The male is the house-hunter but the female will make the final choice. He lands at the hole and turns his head to expose his white cheeks as a signal to attract the female from where she has been feeding.
Among many birds that nest in holes, the male has a light-coloured patch on its plumage (鸟羽) which acts as signal for drawing the female’s attention to a suitable nesting-place. Unlike the blue tit, the redstart (红尾鸡) may be only the male that strikingly coloured and the female is not beautiful.
A few years ago I was lucky enough to spot a pair to redstarts in action in a Walsh wood. The male was leading an interested female to holes that he had previously (先前) checked out. He sat at the entrance of each hole and put his head on to show off his white forehead, or his head in to reveal (显露) his tail.
If the female failed to react to his visual signals, the male sometimes sang for extra effect, while gliding towards her on spread wings and tail. Once the female accepts by following the male through the hose the displays stop, you must be at the right place at the right time to watch them.
39. How do the blue tits choose their nest?
A. They choose their nest together.
B. The male chooses their nest.
C. The house-hunter chooses their nest.
D. The female chooses their nest.
40. The writer was lucky to see .
A. how the male made his tricks
B. how an interested female played with the male happily
C. what the male displayed and won the female
D. that the male tried his best but failed to attract the female
41. You can spot a pair of redstarts in a Walsh wood .
A. at any time B. regularly C. in April D. occasionally
42. The writer is probably .
A. a bird expert B. a bird-hunter
C. a bird raiser D. a scientist
C
America is growing older. Fifty-eight years ago, only 4 out of every 100 people in the United States were 65 or older. To day, 10 out of every 100 Americans are over 65. The aging of the population will affect (影响) American society in many ways-education, medicine, and business. Quietly, the graying of America has made us a very different society-one in which people have a quite different idea of what kind of behavior (行为) is suitable (合适) at various, ages.
A person s age no longer tells you anything about his/her social position, marriage or health. There’s no longer a particular year in which one goes to school or goes to work or gets married or starts a family. The social clock that kept us on time and told us when to go to school, get a job, or stop working isn’t as strong as it used to be. It doesn’t surprise us to hear of a 29-year-old university president or a 35-year-old university president or a 35-year-old grandmother, or a 70 year-old man who has become a father for the first time. Public ideas are changing.
Many people say, “I am much younger than my mother-or my father-was at my age.” No one says “Act your age” any more. We’ve stopped looking with surprise at older people who act in youthful ways.
43. It can be learnt from the text that the aging of the population in America .
A. has made people feel younger
B. has changed people’s social position
C. has changed people’s understanding of age
D. has slowed down the country’s social development
44. The underlined word “one” refers to .
A. a society B. America C. a place D. population
45. “Act your age” means people should .
A. be active when they are old
B. do the right thing at the right age
C. show respect for their parents young or old.
D. take more physical exercise suitable to their age
46. If a 25-year-old man becomes general manager of a big firm, the writer of the text would most probably consider it .
A. normal B. wonderful C. unbelievable D. unreasonable
D
Happy April Fool’s Day. In celebration of the day, we have put together a list of some of the greatest hoaxes in history. They are the lies that have been designed for innocent people who are ready to believe them.
INSTANT COLOR TV
In 1962 there was only one TV channel in Sweden, and in broadcast in black and white. The station’s technical expert, Kjell Stensson, appeared on the news to announce that thanks to a newly developed technology, all viewers could now quickly and easily transform (转换) their existing sets to display color reception. All they had to do was pull a nylon stocking over their TV screen, and they would begin to see their favorite shows in color. Reportedly, hundreds of thousands of people were taken in. Actual color TV transmission only started to appear in Sweden on April 1, 1970.
SAN SERRIFFE
In 1977 the British newspaper The Guardian published a special sever-page supplement (增刊) in honor of tenth anniversary (周年) of San Serriffe, a small republic located in the Indian Ocean. A series of articles affectionately described the geography and culture of this unknown nation. The Guardian’s phones rang all day as readers asked for more information about the beautiful holiday spot. Few noticed that everything about the island was made up.
NIXON FOX PRESIDENT
In 1992 American National Public Radio’s Talk of the Nation program announced that Richard Nichard Nixon, in a surprise move, was running for President again. His new campaign slogan was, “I didn’t do anything wrong, and I won’t do it again.” Accompanying this announcement were audio clips (片断) of Nixon delivering his election speech. Listeners responded immediately to the announcement, flooding the show with calls expressing shock and anger. Only during the second half of the show did the host John Hockenberry reveal that the announcement was a practical joke, Nixon’s voice was copied by comedian Rich Little.

Death Valley is one of the most famous deserts in the United States, covering a wide area with its alkali sand. Almost 20 percent of this area is well below sea level, and Badwater, a salt water pool, is about 280 feet below sea level and the lowest point in the United States.

Death Valley’s present name dates back to 1849, when a group of miners coming across from Nevada became lost in its unpleasantness and hugeness and their adventure turned out to be a sad story. Today Death Valley has been declared a National Monument (纪念碑) and is crossed by several well-marked roads where good services can be found easily. Luckily the change created by human settlement has hardly ruined the special beauty of this place.
Here nature created a lot of surprising, almost like the sights on the moon, ever-changing as the frequent wind moves the sand about, showing the most unusual colors. One of the most astonishing and variable parts of Death Valley is the Devil’s Golf Course, where it seems hard for one to tell reality from terrible dreams. Sand sculptures (沙雕) stand on a frightening ground, as evening shadows move and lengthen.
