     "I guess I"ve always known that many students are just_9_my course to get a requirement out of the
way, " Naumoff said."But it was    10    to see that some couldn"t even go to the trouble of  11   the
name of the person teaching the course."
      The other UNC professors at the  12   began sharing their own stories about the troubling state of
curiosity on  13  . All of them have noted that such ignorance isn"t  14  -students have always possessed
far less knowledge than they should.But in the past,   15   tended to be a source of shame and motivation.
Students were far more likely to be  16   by not-knowing, far more eager to fill such gaps by learning.
  17  , nowadays as one reviewer once said, "It"s that they don"t  18   what they don"t know."
     In our increasingly complex world, the amount of information required to master any  19   
discipline-e.g.computers, life insurance, medicine-has expended geometrically (成几何级数增加地).
We are forced to  20   specialists, people who know more and more about less and less.Curiously, in a
world where everything is worth knowing, nothing is.

     In a cold winter, a couple had to move out from the luxury villa because of bankruptcy. The husband
worked day and night to support the family but with no care of his wife. So she thought, "he doesn"t love
me anymore, he just cares his business—not me".
     One day, she began to take a bath, he stopped her at the door, "Let me take it first, OK?" "Why not
let me shower first," she asked. "I was tired, sweetie, you take it later, OK?" She was totally depressed.
     On a morose day, she found nothing to do and turned on his computer, a few words blurred her eyes
—it was his diary:
     Today, I was quite sad, she asked me why I was always taking the bath first, and I said to her, I was
exhausted. She was unhappy, in her mind, I treated her not as well as usual, but how can I do? I wasn"t
as rich as before! We moved to the small apartment, there was only a shower in such a freezing winter.
But I found that if one person took the shower first, the room could get a litter warm, so every time I
rushed to the bathroom first. I was thinking that, when she took the shower, the room would get warmer,
at least1℃,2℃or 3℃
     Now I can"t give her comfortable life, bring her the luxury restaurant, buy expensive dresses for her,
but at least, I can give her 1℃love.
1. Why was the husband always taking the bath first?
A. Because he was tired from work.
B. Because he didn"t love her anymore.
C. Because he wanted to get the bathroom warmer.
D. Because he treated his wife not as well as usual.
2. What does the underlined word "bankruptcy" in the first paragraph probably mean?
A. crash
B. moving
C. diseases
D. failure
3. The best title of the passage may be ______.
A. A trouble
B. 1℃love
C. Husband and wife
D. A romantic love story
     One kind of female butterfly mates only once in its life —and then closes its wings to avoid
"harassment" when pursued by persistent and unwanted males, a Japanese researcher said.
     Observations of the Small Copper Butterfly, a colourful orange and black butterfly, showed that some
females closed their wings when males flew by, but only when they were males of their own species, said
Jun-Ya Ide, an associate professor at Kurume Institute of Technology in Fukuoka, western Japan.
     "When we looked into why, the males were courting the females. They do this very stubbornly, so the
females sometimes try to get away-or prefer to stay unobserved," he added.
     Ide and his colleagues brought a model of a male butterfly near the females to test their reactions and
found that young females that had yet to mate kept their wings open, but those that had already mated
closed them.
     Not only can the persistent attentions of unwanted suitors harm the delicate females, fleeing from them
—with the male often in pursuit —uses up strength and can even shorten their lives, he added.
     "Closing their wings makes them less visible, helping them avoid communication with their own species. We figured they were trying to avoid harassment by males," Ide said.
1. What does the word "harassment" mean in the paragraph?
A. sexual invasion  
B. embarassment  
C. attack  
D. threat
2. Why some some females closed their wings when males flew by?
A. because the female butterfly mates only once in its life.
B. because they close their wings to avoid "harassment" when pursued by persistent and unwanted
males.
C. because they don’t like the male butterfly at all.
D. because they are afraid of the male butterfly.
3. According the the passage, which is correct?
A. The females closed their wings when males flew by.
B. The female butterfly mates only once in its life.
C. Only the model of a male butterfly can make the young female butterflies to keep their wings open.
D. Not only can the persistent attentions of wanted suitors harm the delicate females, fleeing from them
—with the male often in pursuit -- uses up strength and can even shorten their lives.
