When you visit Taiwan, Green Island is a wonderful place not to be missed.
Green Island, with clear blue water around it, is an island in the Pacific Ocean, 33 kilometers east of
Taitung. The old name for Green Island was Huoshandao, meaning "fireburning island". The island got its
name because people on the island used to set up fires at night to help people who went fishing home.
Another story goes that in the Qing Dynasty there was a fire and most of the island"s trees and grass died.
The coastline (海岸) of the island is only 20 kilometers long, the tallest mountain is only 281 meters high

In many high schools, there are strict rules about using mobile phones. If your phone rings in class,
for example, the teacher will be very angry.
Every mobile phone has a ringtone (铃声). It tells you that someone is calling you. Now,there is a ringtone
called "mosquitotone (蚊子铃声)". Using it, students can receive calls and text messages (短信) in class but
the teacher will not realize what is happening. How?
Mosquitotone has a special sound. Only children and teenagers can hear it. As we get older,we are unable
to hear some sounds with high frequencies (频率). As a result,a child or teenager can hear the mosquitotone
ringtone, but it"s inaudible to someone 20 or older.
But sometimes,people over 20 can hear the ringtone. One British student"s phone uses mosquitotone.
In class, the student"s phone rang. The 32-year-old teacher looked at the student and became unhappy. "I
heard that. You know the rule:no mobile phone in class."
Not all the students are interested in mosquitotone. Jerry Jones,a high school student of 17, says, "Using
mosquitotone too often is bad for our hearing. I may use it for pleasure,but not in class. It"s unfair to the
teachers!"
What do parents think of mosquitotone? "I think it is perfect for places like movie theaters," says Connie
Neeson, 44. "Think about it. Yon"re watching a film and someone"s mobile phone rings. Mosquitotone is good
because many people don"t hear it. However,it also has a bad influence on their study if students use it in
class." |
| 1. Mosquitotone works because ________. |
A. it is very loud
B. it has no sound
C. it has a beautiful sound
D. it uses high frequencies |
| 2. The under lined part "it"s inaudible to" means "________". |
A. it can"t be seen by
B. it can"t be heard by
C. it isn"t popular with
D. it isn"t healthy for |
| 3. The 32-year-old teacher felt unhappy because the student ________. |
A. was late for class
B. didn"t do his homework
C. couldn"t answer her question
D. was using a mobile phone in class |
| 4. Connie Neeson thinks that mosquitotone ________. |
A. has no bad influence
B. is unfair to the teachers
C. has its advantage and disadvantage
D. can"t be used in any public place |

| | 阅读理解。 | Cats are the most popular pets among Americans. So it is not surprising there are many expressions
about cats. Do you know any of them? Now let me introduce some to you.
Some cats like to catch small birds, like canaries. If someone looks very proud or satisfied with himself,
we say he looks like the cat that ate the canary.
Sometimes, a cat likes to play with a small animal it catches. So if you play cat and mouse with someone,
you change between different kinds of behavior when dealing with another person. For example, a child might
offer something sweet to her little brother, and then take it away when reaches for it.
A cat will often catch a small animal and present it to its owner. The saying that looks like something the
cat dragged in describes something in bad condition.
A fat cat is a person with a lot of money.
