One night about nine oclock, Dr. Eyck, a surgeon (外科醫生), had a phone call from Dr. Haydon at the hospital in Clens Falls. The surgeon was asked to go there at once to operate on a very sick boy who shot himself while playing with a gun.
The doctor was soon on his way to Clens Falls. It was 60 miles away. And it was snowing heavily in the city. The surgeon thought he could get there before 12 oclock.
A few minutes later, the doctor was stopped by a man in an old black coat. Gun in hand, the man ordered the doctor to get out. Then the man drove the car down the road, leaving the doctor in the falling snow.
It was after two oclock in the morning when the doctor arrived at the hospital in Clens Falls. Dr. Haydon told him that the boy had died an hour before.
The two doctors walked by the door of the hospital waiting room. There sat the man in the old black coat with his head in his hands.

The 1993 movie Jurassic Park wasnt the first film to show dinosaurs in the modern world. But it did a good job of bringing the idea of cloning dinosaurs into popular culture. It represented dinosaur cloning in a way that made sense to a lot of people, and it was a successful film, making more than $900 million worldwide.
Jurassic Park built on the idea of getting DNA from mosquitoes kept in amber. While this might seem possible at first sight, its highly unlikely that scientists could find usable dinosaur DNA in mosquito fossils. Scientists would need a very specific sample—a female mosquito that had taken lots of dinosaur blood immediately before being trapped in amber. Since fossilization in amber is a relatively rare event, the chances of this happening are pretty small.
The lack of possible samples isnt the only problem. Most insect fossils found in amber are also too young to contain dinosaur blood—dinosaurs were gone by the time the insects became trapped. Many insects went bad from the inside out after they were trapped, leaving nothing inside for scientists to try to find. Finally, the sample would have to be very dry, since DNA can break down quickly in the presence of water.
But if researchers did find a perfectly kept mosquito with a body full of dinosaur blood, bringing back its DNA would still be difficult. The blood with the dinosaur DNA would be surrounded by the body of an insect, which has its own DNA. There could also be DNA from the other cells trapped in the amber. Then, of course, theres the DNA in the laboratory itself—and in the body of the scientist.
8. Why is the film Jurassic Park mentioned at the beginning?
A. To introduce the topic of cloning dinosaurs.
B. To encourage scientists to clone dinosaurs.
C. To give a simple introduction to dinosaurs.
D. To stress the possibility of cloning dinosaurs.
9. The key to cloning dinosaurs is to gain ____.
A. insect fossils B. dinosaur DNA
C. dinosaur blood D. mosquitoes in amber
10. What is the authors opinion on cloning dinosaurs?
A. Its a step away from success. B. It will be a fruitless attempt.
C. It requires further research. D. It lacks creative work.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Why was Jurassic Park successful? B. Reasons for dinosaurs dying out
C. Can scientists clone dinosaurs? D. Ways of cloning dinosaurs
D
Laughter is a kind of universal body language that is shared by people of all nationalities, skin colors, cultures and traditions. But did you know that the ability to tell real laughter apart from fake laughter also varies among cultures?
Greg Bryant, a professor of communication at the University of California, published a study in late July. In the study, 884 people from 21 countries were asked to listen to random recordings of laughter. Some of the recordings were made up of laughs from the bottom of the heart, while others were made by people who were asked to laugh on command.
The study showed that people around the world have the ability to pick out real laughter, although their abilities vary from country to country. Residents of the Samoan Islands, were particularly good at it, correctly identifying real laughter 56 percent of the time. According to Bryant, people from smaller, less industrialized nations “are more accurate in identifying a natural smile” because they rely heavily on emotional engagement in order to predict others behavior and create stronger social relationships.
But how do people from different cultures detect natural laughter so easily? And what characters does real laughter have? As Professor Jessica Wolf of the University of California told the Association for Psychological Science, in real laughter, we produce qualities, such as higher pitch (音調) and volume, as well as faster bursts of no clear sounds.
By contrast, fake laughter will “sound like speech”. Bryant further explained that this system has active ability, saying “with this speech system, you can make a lot of different noises, including crying, laughter or scream. Thats where fake laughter comes from”.
12. What did the study find?
A. Real laughter is produced from peoples heart.
B. People can tell real laughter from fake laughter.
C. People have trouble recognizing real laughter.
D. Laughter is a kind of universal body language in the world.
13. Why are residents of Samoan accurate in identifying natural laughter?
A. They put much emotion to knowing others.
B. They often predict others behaviors.
C. They arent well educated.
D. They have a strong social relationship.
14. What characters does real laughter have?
A. Clearer words. B. Slower speed.
C. Higher sound. D. More like a speech.
15. What can we learn about the fake laughter system?
A. It controls ears and eyes. B. It works like speech systems.
C. It encourages people to copy others. D. It can make people produce various noises.

Crows (乌鸦) are remarkably intelligent birds. Now these feathered geniuses are given a job: Six crows have been trained to pick up rubbish in the Puy du Fou historical theme park in western France. Whenever the six crows put cigarette ends or other small _1_ (piece) of trash in a special container, it offers a treat to reward the crows _2_ their efforts.
The idea came from one of the parks employees, Christophe. In 2012, the theme park held a show during which the crows picked up roses and brought them to a “princess”. It was the show _3_ inspired him. Since then, six crows _4_ (raise) and trained to do the same with rubbish. The training system is similar to the one for testing crows intelligence, _5_ a food dispenser(分發器) gives away a food reward when a crow _6_ (correct) performs a task. Christophe also introduced other species of birds to go through the training. _7_ (compare) with other birds, crows are much cleverer.
The purpose of _8_ (train) the crows is to educate the people to reflect on themselves. Since the birds are able to protect the environment, we need to care about it too. “It is _9_ funny way to remind people not _10_ (throw) the rubbish everywhere,” said Christophe.

There is a famous song called “Never Say Never”, which is one of my favorite song. The lyrics tell people no matter what happens, never give it up. And then you will be successful. I keep believe those words. But in last week, I watch a TV show in which the host asked people learn to give up sometimes. He explained that he met a boy who were not good at maths but extreme skilled in drawing. Therefore, he suggested the boy gives up the major and learn drawing. And now, the boy is the famous painter. It proves that giving up is not always a bad thing, because your potential is which really gives you the chance to succeed.
