nothing on the purple martins (紫燕). These beautiful birds spend each winter in the warm climate of south
America,then return each spring to nesting places in the Southeastern United States.
Purple martlns are birds that are pleasant to watch. Many people also like to have the martins around
because the birds control insect pests. If hollow gourds (葫芦) with two-inch open spaces are hung out for
them,martins are happy to move in. They require only small open spaces to discourage wild animals from
eating them. The gourds should also be hung in an open place away from buildings or trees,so squirrels or
cats can"t disturb the birds.
Common garden grown gourds sometimes rot (腐烂) in the climate of the southeast, so many purple
martin lovers have tried using different materials to create stronger nest. Lengths of plastic pipe have been
used, along with old-fashioned wooden bird houses with martin-sized entrance holes,but the birds clearly
prefer the shape of a gourd. One company is now selling a plastic gourd, just the right size and shape with
a two-inch entrance hole for the martins. The hole is high enough to allow the martins about four inches.
The plastic gourd can be used for a long time.
The permanent (永久的)state is important for martin lovers because the birds can become almost part of
the family. Some families have had the same groups of martins returning to their yards each year for sixty
days.
B. describe homes for purple martins
C. discuss the season journey of purple martins
D. discuss the uses of gourds
B. Small open spaces in gourds discourage wild animals.
C. The swallows of Capistrano are actually purple martins.
D. Plastic gourds are now being sold as homes for purple martins.
B. purple martins never nest in the same place two years
C. too many purple martins nesting in one area can become a harm
D. plastic gourds are not as good as wooden bird houses
B. Durple martins refuse to live in any place but plastic gourds
C. purple martins are dangerous to small animals
D. Purple martins don"t like to live with squirrels.

举一反三
scores. They don"t care much about who wins or loses, and it doesn"t seem to worry them if the game is
not finished. Yet, they like games that depend a lot on luck, so that their personal abilities cannot be directly
compared. They also enjoy games that move in stages, in which each stage, the choosing of leaders, the
picking-up of sides, or the determining of which side shall start, is almost a game in itself.
Grown-ups can hardly find children"s games exciting, and they often feel puzzled at why their kids play
such simple games again and again. However, it is found that a child plays games for very important reasons.
He can be a good player without having to think whether he is a popular person, and he can find himself
being a useful partner to someone of whom he is ordinarily afraid. He becomes a leader when it comes to
his turn. He can be confident, too, in particular games, that it is his place to give orders, to pretend to be
dead, to throw a ball actually at someone, or to kiss someone he has caught.
It appears to us that when children play a game they imagine a situation under their control. Everyone
knows the rules, and more importantly, everyone plays according to the rules. Those rules may be childish,
but they make sure that every child has a chance to win.
B. They can test their personal abilities.
C. They want to pick a better team.
D. They don"t need rules.
B. wait for his turn
C. be confident in himself
D. be popular among his playmates
B. They find children"s games too easy.
C. They don"t need a reason to play games.
D. They don"t understand children"s games.
B. Because he can become popular among friends.
C. Because he finds he is always lucky in games.
D. Because he likes the place where he plays a game.
B. children should invite grown-ups to plays with them.
C. children"s games can do them a lot of good
D. children play games without reasons
again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows this. Yet there are many people who do not seem
to know that one"s memory works in the same way. When someone says that he has a good memory, he
really means that he keeps his memory in practice by exercising it regularly. When someone else says that
his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.
If a friend complains that his arms are weak, we know that it is his own fault. But if he tells us that he
has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame, or that he is just unlucky, and few of us
realize that it is really his own fault. Not all of us can become very strong or very clever, but all of us can
improve our memory by the same means-practice.
Have you ever noticed that people who cannot read or write usually have a better memory than those
who can? Why is this? Of course, because people who can"t read or write have to remember things: they
cannot write them down in a little notebook. They have to remember dates, prices, names, songs and stories,
so their memory is exercised all the time.
So if you want a good memory, learn from those who cannot read or write: practice remembering.
B. when they start using their arms of legs again, they slowly become strong again
C. a person"s memory becomes weak if he does not practice remembering things
D. it is their own fault if their arms or legs are weak
B. his parents are to blame
C. he is just unlucky
D. his arms must be weak
B. become very clever
C. improve our memory by practicing
D. know how to improve our memory
B. people who can"t write are cleverer than those who can
C. a little notebook helps people who cannot read or write get a better memory
D. people who practice remembering regularly have a better memory
B. how to improve our memory
C. how to read and write
D. how to remember dates and prices

Do you decide? Does the supermarket decide?
When you enter the supermarket, you see shelves full of food. You walk in the aisles between the shelves.
You push a shopping cart and put your food in it.
You probably hear soft, slow music as you walk along the aisles. This may be an attempt to please you,
so you will enjoy shopping. Some supermarkets want to increase their profits by playing soft and slow music,
because the slow music makes you walk slowly and you have more time to buy things.
Fresh fruit and vegetables are usually put near the entrance. When you arrive at the supermarket, you
concentrate on the kinds of fruit and vegetables you need first. Once you"ve got that out of the way, you can
relax and do the rest of the shopping without any hurry. Besides, if you see fresh goods first, it gives you a
"feel good" impression of freshness, so you can not help spending your money. Maybe you go to the meat
department then. There is some meat on sale, and you want to find it. The manager of the supermarket knows
where customers enter the meat department. The cheaper meat is at the other end of the meat department,
away from where the customers enter. You have to walk past all the expensive meat before you find the
cheaper meat.
Maybe you will buy some of the expensive meat instead of the meat on sale.
Most of the food in supermarkets is very attractive. It all says "Buy me quickly!" to the customers. The
fresh fruit and vegetables say"Buy me quickly!" as you walk by. The expensive meat says "Buy me quickly!"
The supermarket tells you what to buy.
B. makes customers walk slowly and buy more
C. can make customers relaxed and happy
D. can tell customers exactly where to go
B. which customers like slow music
C. where fresh meat should be put
D. which customers like cheap meat
B. pay no attention to it
C. look for some cheap meat
D. feel uncomfortable
B. it brings you good luck
C. it makes you spend less money
D. you"ll get a fresh impression
B. it looks very expensive
C. the customers come often
D. it seems cheap and fine
to make more decisions. For example, let them decide when and where to study, what to wear, what sports
team to join. However, keep in mind that some decisions can"t be discussed or changed. Parents need to set
limits that protect their children" health and safety.
2 . There"s something happy about the family sitting together around the dinner table. The evening meal
is often the time of the day when the family can sit together in one place and talk with each other. So make
dinner a family affair. You can use the chance to share the news of the day and make weekend plans.
3 . You can tell your children that you, too, sometimes feel angry or unhappy, which shows your
children that you"re not just a parent-you"re a human. Not only will your children feel closer to you, but he or
she may feel safe enough to disclose uncomfortable things or feelings.
4 . They maybe make some wrong choices sometimes. But if they"re over 18, give them the chance to
deal with problems on their own. After all, didn"t you want the same from your parents when you were their
age?
5 . Don"t read her diary, eavesdrop (偷听) on his phone conversations, or upset her with questions.
Remember that they are humans and have their own privacy (隐私) just like you. If you think they have some
problems, point it out directly, using five little words:"Can we talk about it?" For example, you can use the
words such as"I"ve smelled smoke when you walk into the room several times now. Have you been smoking?
Can we talk about it?"
B. Trust your children to make their own choices.
C. Allow your children to make their own decisions.
D. Don"t break your children"s privacy.
