Fun facts about animals
Our animal world brings millions of amazing species（生物）that are smarter than you think.
These wonderful creatures that live on our land, beneath the dark blue oceans, and beyond will
surely make you smile when you discover fun facts about them.
Let's admit it, if you're ever feeling down you can always count on our friends to brighten up
your day with their cuteness.
Squirrels are responsible for planting thousands of trees worldwide
They may be small, but they play a key role in our environment in ways
you wouldn't imagine. These little furry friends plant thousands of trees every
year, worldwide, due to simply forgetting where they buried their acorns. How
cute!
Dragonflies create a heart with their tails while mating（交配）
Dragonflies symbolize（象征）change, transformation, adaptability
and a sign of spiritual growth. Not only that, but they embody love in
many ways. They even create a combined heart-shaped with their tails
when mating. Now that's true love.
Rats laugh when tickled（胳肢）
National Geographic wrote that the testing on rats showed that they, in
fact, love to be tickled, especially on their backs. When tickled, rats let out
an extremely high-pitched sound, associated with laughing. They even
search for the experimenter's hand when they stop and ask for more!
Ducks love to surf
Ducks love to go catch a wave or two in our deep-blue sea. They have been observed riding
the waves of the ocean to shore and swimming back out again to do it all over. Could this be their
favorite hobby?
Wild chimpanzees enjoy getting tipsy（微醺）
Just like humans, chimpanzees like to get tipsy from alcohol
（酒精）. In the Guinea jungle, these clever wild chimps have been
climbing the raffia palm trees to steal the alcoholic sap that humans
have been collected in containers（容器）. The total alcohol amount
in this fermented palm sap averages at 3 percent, equivalent（等同）
to a small beer!
An octopus has three hearts, nine brains, and blue blood
Our dark oceans are home to millions of known and mysterious specifies, the many wonders
of underwater sea-creatures. However, the giant Pacific octopus is truly something magnificent.
With three hearts, nine brains, and blue blood these eight-armed creatures are nothing short of
2extraordinary.
One main brain controls their nervous system with eight smaller
brains controlling each of their eight arms. Two hearts pump blood to their
gills with one larger heart circulating blood to the rest of the body. They
can release a toxic ink when alarmed. Amazing, right?
1. Why do squirrels plant trees?
______________________________________________________
2. What shape do dragonflies create with their tails while mating?
______________________________________________________
3. Where do ducks love to go surfing?
______________________________________________________
4. Do rats love to be tickled?
______________________________________________________
5. What animal likes to get tipsy according to the article?

6. How do octopuses protect themselves when alarmed?

Ghosts in the house （1）
—— Ann Weil and Rusty Fischer
Noises in the Night
It was the 1830s in rural New Hampshire. Since no school buses or cars existed back then,
Virginia had a long walk to and from school every day. She liked walking through the farm fields
because it gave her time to think. Sometimes she'd meet up with friends and they'd pass the time
talking.
One day, Caleb told her that he had heard strange sounds while staying at his grandmother's
house. His grandfather had died recently and many of his belongings were stored in the attic.
Caleb said that anytime he walked past the stairs, he felt a cold chill. Virginia asked him to stop
talking. She was getting scared. She too, lived in an old farmhouse with an attic. She too, heard
noises in her attic. She grew worried and wondered if her house was haunted.
When Virginia arrived home, she wanted to ask her mother if she believed in ghosts, but
decided against it. Instead, she quietly and feverishly did her chores. She
helped with dinner, washed all the dishes, and swept up afterward.
Later in the evening, she was so tired that as she worked on her
homework, she fell asleep in her chair. Her mother had to help walk her
upstairs to get ready for bed.
"Good night, Virginia. Sleep well." Virginia's mother kissed her daughter on the forehead as
she climbed under the quilt.
"Good night, Mother," said Virginia with a yawn, but as she drifted off to sleep, she dreamed
of ghosts.
Tip-tap...tip-tap...Virginia popped open her eyes with a burst of fear. What was that sound?
She sat up and listened carefully, holding her breath.
Tip-tap...tip-tap..."Mother, is that you?" Virginia whispered urgently, but there was no
answer, only a strange, mysterious sound. Was it ghosts? Her father always said that there was
usually a simple answer to a simple problem, and so she decided to find out.
Tip-tap...tip-tap...Virginia jumped out of bed and ran over to her bedroom
window to see if maybe a tree branch was brushing against the glass. While looking
outside, she watched the wind whip up leaves across the grass under a full moon.
Tip-tap...tip-tap...Virginia realized that the strange sound was not coming from
below her, but from above her. There were no bedrooms on the top floor, so it must be
5an animal, Virginia thought. Maybe a raccoon snuck into the attic and is clawing its way out.
Virginia got back in bed, feeling much better that she had convinced herself there were no
ghosts, and soon fell into a deep sleep.
Lies and Lullabies
The next morning at breakfast, Virginia told her parents about the
sounds she heard coming from the attic.
"I'll look up there after breakfast," said her father, with a quick glance
toward her mother.
"Can I go with you?" asked Virginia. She saw a flash of worry cross her mother's face. "No,
dear," said Mother. "The attic is dusty, and you'll get your dress dirty."
Virginia was disappointed, but she knew better than to argue with her mother.
Later that day, Virginia helped her mother hang meat to smoke behind the
fireplace. "I thought we had one ham left," said Virginia with a confused look on her
face. "What happened to it?" she asked. Her mother looked away without answering,
which Virginia thought was strange. Her mother was often short with her, but never ignored her.
That evening, at dinner, Virginia asked her father about the animal in the attic. "Did you find
anything?"
Her father shook his head saying only, "Maybe a couple of squirrels got in there, but it's
nothing to worry about." Virginia noticed a shared glance between her parents. That night,
Virginia lay in bed waiting to fall asleep but was having trouble because she was thinking about
the missing ham. She wondered if the missing ham and the sounds in the attic were somehow
connected. Had a giant raccoon somehow stolen their ham and dragged it upstairs?
Then Virginia thought she had heard sounds, but she didn't- she heard voices. Virginia sat up
and listened but could not hear any words, only the murmur of a whisper. Someone- a woman-
was singing very softly, perhaps a lullaby, but Virginia did not recognize the words or the melody.
She heard from Caleb at school that ghosts made strange sounds, but could they sing, too?
Virginia got out of bed and ran to her parents' room. "Mother! Father!" she called out. "There
are people in the attic! I heard someone singing!"
"Hush, child," scolded her mother, "you'll wake your baby sister."
"But I heard someone singing a lullaby, Virginia insisted.
"It must have been your mother," said Virginia's father. "She was singing to the baby."
Virginia glanced at her mother. She was leaning over the baby's cradle. "Go back to bed,
Virginia, "she said without raising her eyes. Virginia went back to her bedroom feeling annoyed
and confused because she knew all her mother's favorite lullabies. The tune she had heard earlier
was not any of them. But why would her father lie to her? Maybe our house is haunted after all,
thought Virginia. Maybe Mother and Father know about the ghosts and don't want me to be scared.
Virginia climbed back into bed, where she strained to hear more singing, but the house was
oddly silent. Virginia liked that less than the noises. Something- or someone- was directly above
her, but who, or what, was it? She slipped deeper under her quilt.

Ghosts in the house （2）
—— Ann Weil and Rusty Fischer
Shadows Beyond the Door
The next morning, Virginia went into the pantry to get a jar of peaches for breakfast, but
there were none on the shelf. Virginia remembered that there
had been three jars left the last time she looked. Who had eaten all
those peaches? Was it the same person or thing that took our ham?
"Do ghosts eat?" Virginia asked her parents at breakfast. Virginia's father chuckled, but
her mother was not amused. "What nonsense," she said.
Virginia was not sure if she believed in ghosts or not but was tired of being treated like a
kid, and so she decided she would sneak up and explore the attic on her own.
That night, Virginia forced herself to stay awake till after her parents were
asleep. Then she got out of bed, lit a candle, and tiptoed to the steps that went up
to the attic.
Virginia heard soft thumps and bumps and scraping noises along the way.
She paused several times, clutching her chest, but always kept going.
Her heart was beating so hard she thought that she might faint. She pushed on the door to the
attic, but it didn't move— it was locked.
Virginia peeked through the keyhole and saw shadowy figures moving inside. Ghosts!
She was right! Her house was haunted! And there wasn't just one- Virginia counted three
ghosts: two big ones and one that was about her size.
Suddenly, her candle blew out, and Virginia was left in darkness. She wanted
to scream! The only sound she could hear was the beating of her own heart!
As Virginia stumbled her way back down the stairs in a hurry, her hands
touched something soft. She nervously picked it up and scurried back to her
bedroom. Standing next to the window, she let the moonlight show her what she
held in her hands: it was a doll made from cornhusks.
While Virginia wasn't sure whether ghosts ate or not, she was quite sure they did not play
with dolls. She thought about the lullaby she had heard and the missing food and suddenly
realized no ghosts were in the attic- real people were, but who? Virginia devised a trap to find
out.
The next morning, Virginia quietly put the doll back on the attic stairs. As
she waited at the foot of the stairs, the attic door eased open. A little girl crept
out and picked up the doll. Then she looked up and spotted Virginia.
The frightened little girl gasped and started to cry. Before Virginia could
comfort the girl, a hand whisked her back into the attic and slammed the door.
Now Virginia knew the secret her parents had been keeping from her: the people in the
attic were not ghosts; they were fugitives-slaves escaping to freedom in the north. Virginia once
heard her parents whispering about the Underground Railroad, which was not a real railroad,
with trains and tracks, but a collection of routes and homes fugitives could use to escape to
Canada.
They could find freedom in Canada. Virginia's parents were stationmasters on the
9Underground Railroad, and now, so was she.
A few days later, Virginia realized the ghosts were gone. One of them had left a gift for
her on the attic stairs. It was the small doll made from corn husks. She kept it, but not for
herself. If ever another family should stop at their "station," she would have something to offer
them other than her own fear.
Epilogue
Around the 1830s, the effort to help slaves escaping from the
southern United States was called the Underground Railroad.
Although it was against the law, many individuals, both black and
white, opened their homes to help these fugitives find freedom.
Families like Virginia's often fed, clothed, and hid small groups of fugitives until it was safe
for them to move farther north. It could take from several months to an entire year for fugitives
to make it north to Canada, one of the only places they could be truly safe and free.

Task 1. Extensive reading.
Thousands of years ago, in the south of ancient China, there lived
Shennong, a man who had an ox (牛) head and human body. Seeing that
local people were suffering from disease, he built ladders and houses on
a high mountain to store hundreds of medical plants. To remember him,
people named the place Shennongjia.
The legend (传说) makes Shennongjia in Hubei an interesting place for tourists. Traveling
there is a unique experience, as you can see sceneries of the four seasons from different
altitudes. “When the bottom of the mountain is summer, the top is spring and while the foothill
12is autumn, the top is covered with snow,” local people say of the special climate of Shennongjia.
Shennongjia is also home to 5,000 species of animals and plants. Many animals in danger
live there, such as the golden monkey, the clouded leopard and the Asian black bear.
One interesting and mysterious thing about Shennongjia is its legend of wild men. Some
people once claimed that they saw big prints or big-foot creatures. Yet so far, scientists haven’t
proved it is true and some say they are just bears.
The beautiful place has recently received a new title. On July 17, 2016, Shennongjia
Forestry District was added to United Nations World Heritage list as a natural site. China now
has 50 world heritage sites (遗址), second only to Italy in the world.
1．Which of the following is right about Shennong?
A．Shennong had an ox body.
B．Shennong grew medical plants for people.
C．Shennong helped the local people.
D．Shennong named the place Shennongjia.
2．In Shennongjia, ________.
A．there are many medical stores along the way
B．people can experience four seasons up the mountain
C．there are 500 species of animals and plants
D．scientists have proved there are wild men there
3．What does the underlined word “title” mean in Paragraph 5?
A．标题 B．景点 C．称号 D．职务
4．Which of the following countries has the most world heritage sites?
A．Italy. B．The USA． C．China. D．Canada.
5．What’s the best title of the passage?
A．The legend of Shennong
B．Animals living in Shennongjia
C．The amazing Shennongjia
D．World heritage sites

Once upon a time, a town mouse went to the countryside and met a country mouse. The
country mouse asked the town mouse to come to his house. They sat down to eat a dinner of
peas and corn but the town mouse didn't like it." This food is boring!" the town mouse said. "You
should come and try the food in town."
"I will," said the country mouse.
They set off for the town. They went to the town mouse's house and opened the cupboard.
Inside, there was jam, chutney, rice and pasta. The country mouse was amazed. Then, the kitchen
door swung open and the cook came in. The mice ran to the mouse hole. The country mouse
was terrified. When the cook was gone, the mice went to find more food. They went to the
cupboard and found a jar of prunes to eat.
"Yum!" said the country mouse. "Thank you, the town mouse."
"Shhhh!" said the town mouse. The cat had crept into the kitchen. The mice tiptoed back to
the hole. They went to the cellar. There was even more food there. The country mouse saw a
tasty looking piece of cheese in the corner. He ran to get it.
17"Stop!" said the town mouse. "It's a mousetrap!"
"Oh dear!" said the country mouse. "I think it's time for me to go. There are too many
