Nature is amazing! Take a close look at the world of insects (昆虫) and you will discover
many unbelievable things. Consider butterflies, for example. They have beautiful, colorful wings,
and strong. steady flying skills. On summer days, we see them flying gracefully over flower
gardens and wild fields.
But, do you know that butterflies live three separate lives before they become the flying
insects we all know? They begin their lives as one thing, change into another, and then another.
Finally, they change into beautiful flying insects. It's true. And it's one of the wonders of nature. In
the beginning, there is an egg, it's usually small and colorful. A female butterfly lays an egg on a
leaf of a plant When you look at this tiny egg, it's hard to believe that in a few days, it will become
something completely different.
In time, it changes into a new life. No longer the small egg becomes a walking insect. This
insect is called a caterpillar. It now has legs, eyes, a mouth and a large body. A new life has begun.
The caterpillar eats, and eats, and cats. It can walk. It can see. But it is still not a butterfly. Soon,
after growing big, the caterpillar makes a cover for itself. It wraps (包裹) itself in this nice
protective blanket and goes to sleep. This stage (阶段) of a butterfly’s life is known as the“pupa”
stage.
What happens next is truly amazing!
After a period of time, the blanket breaks and a wet, weak butterfly appears. It now has six
legs, a mouth, eyes and wings. Soon, the wings fill with blood, and the beautiful, colorful butterfly
spreads its wings and flies away.
After a few weeks pass, this adult bitterly lays her eggs, and the cycle begins all over again.
This is just one example of the wonders of nature. Look around the natural world, and you will
learn many truly amazing things.
54. is a “caterpillar.
55. According to the passage, it's clear that butterflies .
A. have three separate lives in all
B. have colorful wings with no legs
C. can be seen in flower gardens in summer
D. are small eggs with no color at the beginning
56. The last paragraph means we should .A. take a close look at the insect world
B. protect all kinds of animals and plants
C. discover the different forms of different things
D. go into the nature and enjoy the wonders of the world

I failed a test. I felt terrible. It hurt me both inside and out. I was embarrassed. Just think

58 She said, “So, you failed a test. But do you know about another test that is even
more important?”
“What is it?” I looked at my mother, puzzled.
“It is whether or not you can learn from your mistake,” my mom continued.“ 59 . To me,
that is more important than what you scored on a test.”

I caught a cold. It was really a bad cold. Actually, the doctor later told me that I had the flu
(流感).
My head was pounding. My throat was hurting. My body was aching. My voice
became hoarse and I could hardly speak. I never experienced anything like this before. Worst of
all, my sore throat was so serious that I couldn't even swallow (吞咽)!
I knew I should drink more fluids- water, soup or juice—and maybe take some medicine. But
I couldn’t. Each time I tried to sallow, it hurt so much. So my dad to me to the hospital.
A doctor came in. He checked my throat. He then checked my lungs. After his examination, he
said, “Nothing to worry about. You have the flu."
“Why is it so serious?” I asked. “Can you give me some medicine so that I don't suffer as
much?”
“No.” the doctor said.“No medicine can cure (治愈) your flu. Don't be sad. Your body is an
amazing thing. It will cure itself without any help,” “What? My body will fix things on its own?”
I cried in disbelief.
“Yes, your body's immune system (免疫系统) will fight the virus (病毒) for you. No doctor
or medicine will cure you.” repeated the doctor.My tears rushed out. I had not realized this in the past. Everything had always seemed so
natural. I've had my meals every day for thirteen years. I drink water like taking a breath—without
thinking about it at all.
Now, I understand that even a simple thing like swallowing is like a miracle (奇迹). The parts
of my body do their jobs amazingly well—and yet quietly, without me even noticing.
I don't remember how many days it took me to be well again, but I do remember what my
father told me. He said that we should all appreciate our bodies and the miracle of how they are
built.

One possible version:
A Morning or Evening People?
Different people have different sleeping habits. Some are morning people, some are evening
people. My parents are morning people. They go to bed early and get up early. They say there's not
much sleep for them at their ages. As for me, I never stay up late. I often go to bed before 9:00 pm,and get up early for school the next morning.
I think everyone should have good sleeping habits. They can help our bodies relax and rest
well. Many studies show that it's much healthier to go to bed early and get up early. I prefer to be
a healthy morning people.
