      Telepathy is the ability to communicate without the use of the five senses. It's an instinct which can be
woken up in times of emergency or need. When we feel that something is happening or about to happen by
instinct, we're using resources within the unconscious (無(wú)意識(shí)的) mind. When the resources of two persons'
unconscious minds link together into the same frequency (頻率), we call it telepathy.
       We can either send or receive telepathy. If you know who is calling before you answer the ringing phone,
you are probably a good receiver. If you think of a person and he/she calls you, you are most likely to be better
at sending. 
      You can easily put your ability to the test. Thinking of somebody and wish him or her to contact (聯(lián)系)
you. Be patient. The other person may not be a good receiver, but they should contact you much earlier than
would normally be expected. Or whenever the phone rings, try 'feeling' who is contacting you. Don't guess,
but try to feel it with your mind. However, if neither of these works for you, that doesn't mean that you have
no ability of telepathy. As mentioned earlier, telepathy is most likely to turn up in case of emergency.
      Telepathy dreams often contain telepathic messages. Two people may both dream of the other and find
that their dreams have a clear connection. These people are probably linking to each other's unconscious mind. 
      Telepathy & relationship. The more people spend time together, the more likely they are to be able to link
up to the other's mind, especially when separated. There are two reasons for this. One is that they understand
the other's mind through time spent together; the other is that there is usually a strong desire to communicate.
A mother will often sense that her child is in danger. This is due to the child's eagerly wanting his or her
mother, knowing that this is the person who would always want to be there for them, and the mother's deep
desire to protect her child from harm.
1. When does telepathy occur?
[     ]
A. It occurs when one senses that a close friend of his/her is in danger.
B. It occurs when one has very good five senses.
C. It occurs when one wants to call his/her best friend.
D. It occurs when one doesn't know a stranger.
2. Which of the following can be used as the title of the passage?
[     ]
A. Receiving Telepathy
B. Telepathy: Mind-to-Mind Contact
C. Telepathy: People's Dream
D. Dream of Telepathy
3. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
[     ]
A. The more people separate, the more likely that telepathy will occur.
B. It is by using the five senses that telepathy occurs.
C. Telepathy happens when people live far away and have no chance to see one another.
D. One is better at sending than receiving telepathy if one receives a friend's call as one wishes.
4. Which of the following belongs to telepathy?
[     ]
A. By accident, you are aware of a friend of yours is coming to see you.
B. People's communication over the telephone.
C. A mother's sense of her child is in danger.
D. A couple's long separation.

閱讀下列短文, 從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng) (A、B、C和D) 中, 選出最佳選項(xiàng)
A New Zealand fishermen caught what may prove to be a world-record-breaking colossal squid(魷魚).
In the cold, dark waters of the Antarctic hides a creature with eight arms, two super long tentacles(觸須) and eyes as big as dinner plates. Sound like something out of a science fiction movie? Think again.
On February 21, New Zealand fishermen landed a colossal squid the length of a school bus. They had been fishing with long lines for Chilean sea bass in the waters off the coast of New Zealand when they caught the rare squid. With two hours of hard work, the crew skillfully pulled the creature into a net and dragged in aboard their ship.
Scientists evaluate that the animal weighs about a half ton and is about 40 feet long. That would make this colossal squid the biggest on record.
First identified in 1925 after two tentacles were found in a whale’s stomach, the colossal squid has long been a mystery. The animals are not easy to observe because they can go down to ocean depths of 6,500 feet. What scientists do know from studying the bodies of a half dozen colossal squids is that they are fierce hunters.
The recently captured colossal squid has been frozen to keep it for scientific study. It will be transported to New Zealand’s national museum, Te Papa, in the capital city of Wellington. Experts believe it to be the first adult male ever caught undamaged. Scientists hope to learn more about the colossal squid’s diet, behavior and reproductive(繁殖)patterns.
“Scientists will be very interested in this amazing creature, ”said New Zealand Fisheries Minister Jim Anderson. “It adds immeasurably to our understanding of the marine environment. ”
1. Why is it usually difficult for experts to observe the squid?
A. Because it moves too fast                       B. Because it is too large.
C. Because it is dangerous.                      D. Because it can go down to deep ocean.
2. What can be inferred from the passage?
A. The squid is from a science fiction story 
B. The fishermen often meet colossal squids
C. Scientists know much about the colossal squid. 
D. The fishermen had some difficulty catching the large squid.
3. What’s the purpose of catching such a huge squid?
A. To make it into food  B. To set a world record 
C. To do research on it  D. To display it for visitors
4. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. The biggest squid ever found                      B. Scientific research on squid
