One Sunday evening, it was quite dark when old Stanley went for his walk. He
2was walking along the sidewalk, Suddenly, he saw a white car coming around the

Foods that are well known to you may not be familiar to people from different
3places around the world. Tourists and travelers often get to try some
unfamiliar food. That is part of the fun of traveling. Here are four people’s
experiences with foreign food.
David King is a Chinese student in France. “I never had cheese or even milk
before I came to France. Cows are seldom seen in my part of China. So there is
no milk or milk products. I drank some milk when I first arrived in France. I
hated it! I tried cheese, too, but I didn’t like it. I love ice cream, though
that’s made from milk.”
Birgit is from Sweden. She traveled to Australia on vocation. “I was in a
restaurant that was special in fish. I heard some other people order flake, so
I ordered some, too. It was delicious! Later, I learned that flakes is an
Australian name for shark. Now, whenever I see a new food, I try it on purpose.
You know why? I remember how much I enjoyed flake.”
Chandra is a dentist in Texas. She is from India. “ I’m afraid to try new
foods because maybe there is beef in them. I’m a Hindu(印度教信徒)and my
religion(信仰) stops me from eating meat from the cow. That’s why I can’t eat
hamburgers or noodles with meatballs.”
Nathan is from the United States. He taught for a year in China. “My friend
gave me some 100-year-old eggs to eat. I didn’t like their appearance at all.
The eggs were green inside, but my friends said the color was normal. Chinese
people put something on fresh eggs. Then they put them in the earth for three
months. So the eggs weren’t really very old. Even so, I didn’t want to touch
them.”

C
Monarch butterflies from eastern Canada make the most amazing journey in the
insect world. Each year, this butterfly travels about 3000miles to its winter
home in central Mexico(墨西哥). How can it fly so far? And why does it make
this long and dangerous trip? Scientists still don’t have an answer.
For many years, people in Mexico wondered where the orange-and-black
butterflies came from every winter. Then, in 1937, a scientist started to
follow and study the butterflies. For the next 20 years, he discovered that one
butterfly started its journey in Canada. Four months later, it arrived in
Mexico.
The length of the butterflies find their way back to the same place?
4Another amazing thing is that the butterflies always return to the same area in
central Mexico.
How do the butterflies find their way back to the same place? This is an
interesting question because only every fourth generation(代)makes the trip
south. In other words, the butterfly that travels to Mexico this year is the
great-great-grandchild of the butterfly that traveled there last year.
Each year, four generations of a Monarch butterfly family are born. Each
generation of the family has a very different life. The first generation is
born in the south in late April. It slowly moves north, reproduces(繁衍), and
then dies. On the trip north,two more generations are born, reproduce, and die.
Each of these generations of butterflies is born. This generation has a much
longer life. It lives for about eight months. This generation of butterflies
makes the amazing journey back to the winter home of its great-great-
grandparents. The butterflies spend the winter there, and in the spring they
reproduce and then die. Their offspring will be the first generation of the
next circle of life.
Today, people are still studying the Monarch butterfly. But they are not
clear about everything.
41.The best title of the passage can be ________.
A .Family of Monarch butterflies B. Mystery of Monarch butterflies
C .Monarch butterflies’ birthplace D .Monarch butterflies’ winter
home
42.It took the scientist ______ to find out that monarch butterflies came
from Canada.
A . 20 years B. four months C .five weeks D .eight
months
43.We know that the _____ generation of Monarch butterflies travel back to
central Mexico.
A .first B. second C .third D .fourth
44.The underlined word “offspring” in the passage is closest in meaning
to______.
A . seasons B. butterflies C .children D .parents
45.Which statement is true according to the text?
A .Monarch butterflies spend winter in eastern Canada.
B .The four generations have the same length of life.
C .Some generations die on the way north to Canada.
D .Scientists are clear about everything of the butterflies

Ma Yun became one of the richest men in China when his company Alibaba
went on the stock（股票)market last year with a value of around 140
billion-the largest public offering in history. Here are some stories about him
on the way to success.
Ma made his first trip to the a US in 1995 and used the Internet for the
first time. After searching for “beer”, he saw that no results came up about
China. Then he searched for “China” and still saw no results. He decided to
set up a Chinese website--the seed for Alibaba was sown(播种).
Ma said he was refused many times in his life. He failed the College
Entrance Examination in China three times and few companies offered him jobs,
including one at KFC. And he was refused by the famous Harvard University 10
6times.
It was difficult to learn English when Ma was a teenager because of limited
resources. However, he found that he could learn English well by giving
tourists free guides around his hometown Hangzhou. And he kept it for nine
years. Ma said that tourists opened up a new world for him because everything
they said and did was so different from what he had been taught at school and
by his parents.
Ma’s hero is Forest Gump who never gives up. When he made a speech about
his success at Davos(达沃斯论坛)in 2015,Ma said, “Life is like a box of
chocolates because you never know what you are going to get.”

Many companies today hold meetings to discuss their new plans. As people
are paying more attention to the environment problems, more companies are
looking for ways to reduce their bad influence on the environment. Many of them
achieve this by using web meeting.
Web meeting is a technology that allows people to communicate better over
the Internet. It’s an easy way of hosting and attending a meeting.
Participants(与会者) don’t have to leave the office. Each of them will receive
an invitation with the meeting time and date on it. When the meeting is ready
to begin, they must sit before their computers.
With web meeting, all participants can attend the meeting at their own
desks. They don’t need to drive a car to travel to and from the meeting. As a
result, no fuel（燃料) is used and less time is taken up in attending a web
meeting.
Materials for the meeting are simply e-mailed to all the participants
before it begins. Then participants can just read them on the screen. For the
company, this not only saves the use of paper but also greatly reduces the
mailing cost.
As a meeting hall is not used, the only power for a web meeting is the
power that is used by the computers. Besides, organized don’t have to pay for
food or accommodation（住宿)for the participants. All this means that less
energy is used.
In a word, web meeting is a cheaper, greener, and more friendly way of
7hosting and attending a meeting. Companies that hold web meetings are willing
to work hard for a better environment. So they can more easily find their
working partners who have the same green ideas. In return, they develop good
relationship with other companies and improve their business.

25.Many companies are looking for ways to _________ on the environment,
