Most people have heard the sound of bees among flowers. Bees live almost everywhere in the world except in the Arctic areas.
Many kinds of agriculture depend on these small, social insects. Without bees, fruit and nut growers as well as many other farmers would not have a crop.
There are more than 20,000 kinds of bees. But only honey bees make enough honey for people to use. Honeybees are highly-organized social insects. They work together in a group, called a colony(群體). Each colony lives in a hive(蜂房). It contains one queen bee -- she lays all the eggs from which the members of the colony come. Each colony has only a few hundred males, called drones. The majority of all bees in a colony are workers, which are all females.
Bees even have a special stomach, called a honey stomach,  which is used to store sweet fluid that the bees gather from flowers. Bees also have long hairs on their body and legs. These hairs capture pollen(花粉) as bees go from flower to flower. Some of the pollen is taken back to the hive. Some, however, is passed to the next flower. This is how many plants are fertilized. Pollen is the reproductive material of plants. Many important agricultural crops depend on bees for fertilization.
Inside their hives, bees store sweet liquid from flowers and pollen as well. They may even gather sweet liquid from some other kinds of insects. These kinds of sweet liquid are also stored in the hive.
Bees make honey through a process. They add liquid from their own mouths to sweet liquid into simple sugar. As the honey is stored, it dries. It becomes thicker and darker.
Although bees are often thought of as honey makers, they provide a surprising number of products. Also, their greatest economic value is in fertilizing crops-not in making honey.
【小題1】The passage is mainly about             .

A.bees and their colony
B.the way for bees to pass pollen
C.bees and agriculture
D.the process for bees to make honey
【小題2】Honeybees are social insects because         .
A.they work in groupsB.there is queen bee in every colony
C.they live in a hiveD.each of them does the same job
【小題3】The most valuable thing honeybees do for people is in             .
A.making honeyB.fertilizing crops
C.making flowers grow betterD.producing pollen
【小題4】The word “fertilize” in the sentence “This is how many plants are fertilized” probably means “    ”.
A.to make plants strong and productive
B.to make soil rich for plants
C.to start the development of young flowers
D.to introduce pollen into plants

If you watch British television on Friday March 15, you might be surprised to see celebrities wearing funny red noses and joking around. But don’t worry, they’re not mad, it’s all part of a biennial fund-raising event called Red Nose Day.
Organized by the charity Comic Relief, founded in 1985 by two British comedians, the aim of the event is to raise money to fight poverty and injustice in the UK and Africa.
Celebrities and public figures support the event by making appearances on comic TV shows broadcast by the BBC. This year, for example, UK Prime Minister David Cameron appeared in a music video by One Direction, which the band produced for the event.
But Britons don’t just raise money for charitable causes on one day a year, they do it all year round. One way of doing so is by shopping in charity shops.
These small, inconspicuous shops sell clothes, books and household goods just like any other shop. But there’s one big difference—it’s all secondhand.
There are nearly 10,000 charity shops in the UK, according to the Charity Retail Association. Their business model is simple: Anybody who has things they don’t want anymore can donate them to a charity shop, where they are checked for damage, cleaned and priced. Most items go back on sale at a small part of their original price and the money that is made by selling them is used for a charitable cause.
The idea of buying used clothes may sound off-putting, but for shoppers who have less spending money, such as the elderly or those in low-paying jobs, it has been a welcome option for years.
Now, “thrifting”—shopping at charity shops— is also becoming popular with young people looking for alternative fashion.
“I love shopping at thrift stores. You can find very unique clothes for a very cheap price. It doesn’t bother me that other people may have worn them, I simply wash them before I wear them,” said Anne Marie, a 19-year-old Internet user from the US, in a comment on a Yahoo forum.
So next time you spot a charity shop, why not go inside? Who knows, you might find a lovely dress for just a few pounds. Even better, you can enjoy wearing it in the knowledge that your money helped a good cause.
【小題1】What do famous people in Britain do in support of the Red Nose Day event?

A.Appear on comic TV shows.
B.Donate large sums of money.
C.Donate expensive clothes to charity shops.
D.Play in a music video with the Prime Minister.
【小題2】What do we learn from the passage about Comic Relief?
A.It was founded in 1985 by two British comedians in Africa.
B.It organizes the Red Nose Day fund-raising event.
C.It runs nearly 10,000 charity shops in the UK.
D.It is financially supported by the UK government.
【小題3】One reason for the popularity of the thrift shops is that __________.
A.they sell a wide variety of goods
B.their business model is simple
C.their goods are carefully checked, cleaned and priced
D.they provide things, sometimes special, at low prices
【小題4】The passage is written mainly to __________.
A.inspire more people to join in charitable causes in the UK
B.introduce the traditions of the Red Nose Day
C.a(chǎn)nalyze why charity shops are popular in the UK
D.explain how charity shops work in the UK

To me, the ocean is our greatest wilderness. I love swimming in it , surfing its waves, watching it from shore and thinking about all the life living unseen under the surface.

When I take my little kids to check out tide pools, we’re overjoyed when we find a sea star or some shellfish. Lately, though, I've noticed a change in my favorite pools: there are more sea grasses and fewer animals with shells.

I can't help feeling these small changes portend something more troubling about our oceans. It matches what scientists are telling us: our oceans are being troubled by carbon dioxide that threatens corals, colorful fish, salmon, sea otters, even whales. Our oceans are facing a major change.

Every hour, a million tons of carbon dioxide from cars, factories and power plants rain down on the world’s oceans. Carbon pollution brings about a chemical reaction that turns sea water more acidic (酸的) and takes away things important for sea animals .

Some of us are already feeling the effects of this growing crisis(危機(jī)). Shellfish farmers in the Pacific Northwest have reported a decrease in natural and farmed oysters(牡蠣). Just this week, a new studyproved the link between the huge reduction in the numbers of oysters and ocean acidification. As polar waters become more acidic, Alaskan fishermen are troubled by the future of smaller fish.

Without action, ocean acidification will have a disastrous influence on the food chain, affecting not only sea life but the people who depend on it for food and their living. Already, our oceans have become 30 percent more acidic since preindustrial times, and it gets worse every day. We can stop this frightening dream, but only if we act now.

That's why the Center for Biological Diversity has started a petition (請愿書) requesting President Obama and the Environmental Protection Agency to develop a plan to deal with ocean acidification. Decisive action can save sea life as we know it.

Now it isn’t too late to save our oceans and sea life. With immediate action to reduce carbon dioxide release we can start taking important steps today to deal with this disastrous situation. Join me in our petition calling for a national plan to save our oceans.

1.The author’s recent visits to the tide pool brought her ___ .

A.happiness         B.a(chǎn)nger             C.concern          D.comfort

2.The underlined word “portend” in Paragraph 3 probably means ___ .

A.predict           B.prevent           C.replace           D.reduce

3.What the author worries about most is ____ .

A.the harm of sea grasses

B.carbon pollution in the sea

C.that the petition may be turned down

D.how fishermen can make a living in the future

4.What is the main purpose of the text ?

A.To inform.         B.To educate.        C.To persuade .       D.To instruct.
