The cat’s ears were folded, bent forward, on its head. In fact, this was a new kind of cat. People named it the “Scottish Fold (苏格兰折耳猫)”.The Scottish Fold has a round head and large eyes. Its neck and legs are short, which makes it look very cute. Interestingly, all the Scottish Folds are born with straight and unfolded ears. And when they are growing up day by day, some cats’ ears will begin to fold. So, the Scottish Fold comes in two types: folded ears and s traight ears.Besides, there is a nickname for the Scottish Fold. It is the “Messenger o f Peace (和平使者)”. Why? Because the Folds are sweet and friendly animals. They can get along well with other cats. And unlike some other cats, they can even get along well with dogs! In ma ny different environments, such as at a noisy hou se, or in a cat show, you can see them playing with other animals happily.Well, when you come to a new school, do you think it’s difficult to get used to the new environment? Perhaps you can learn from the Scottish Fold. That is: always be sweet and friendly to others.1. The Scottish Fold _______.A. is born with folded earsB. is born with straight earsC. always has folded earsD. always has straight ears2. What does the Scottish Fold look like?A. It has a round head and small eyes.B. Its neck and legs are long.C. It looks very cute.D. It looks very scary.3. Why are the Scottish Folds named the “Messengers of Peace”?A. Because their ears are folded.B. Because they look very cute.C. Because they can get on well with other animals.D. Because they can stay at a noisy house or in a cat show.4. According to the passage, what is the writer’s suggestion to u s when we are in a new environment?A. We should have a nickname.B. We should learn from the cats.C. We should get along well with dogs.D. We should always be sweet and friendly to others.5. Which is the best title for the passage?A. Scottish FoldB. CatsC. Cats and DogsD. Messenger of PeaceBThere are many colors in nature. But do you think that a color has weight? I think you'll say “no”. But I'm afraid you are wrong. If you don't believe it, you may do a small experiment．First, put two objects with the same weight into two boxes. Then cover the boxes. Third, wrap(包裹) one box with a red piece of paper, the other one with a white piece of paper. OK. Now hold the boxes with your hand one by one. It is certain that you will think the red one is a little heavier.Why do you think so? A scientist found that different colors have different weights in man's mind. That is to say, every color has its own weight in our mind.The scientist told us that colors also have smell. Can you smell the color? Of course not. Then why did the scientist say so? That is because every color stands for a kind of light with a certain wavelength. It reaches our brain through sense organs．According to this discovery, scientists say that people accept the colors they like, and refuse the colors they hate. So your body and mind will be healthy by using the colors you like. Or you'll be nervous or even get ill. For example, you like blue and hate red. If you stay in a room with red windows, wallpaper and furniture for two hours, you'll feel you have been there for four hours. But if the room is blue, you'll feel you have been there for only an hour. And, if a person walks out of a blue room and into a red room, his temperature will rise. That means our body temperature will change with different colors.6．From the experiment, we know that .A．the two boxes have the same weightB．colors can change the weight of an objectC．the red paper is heavier than the white paperD．colors have different weights in people's mind7．From the fourth paragraph, we can infer ．A．the smell of colors is changeableB．people can sense the light from colorsC．people can smell the colors through the noseD．all the colors have the same smell for the blind8．Which of the following is TRUE?A．White color is heavier than red color.B．People may get ill if they refuse the colors they don't like.C．People can stay longer in red rooms than in blue rooms.D．People's body temperature will change with different colors.9．We can infer from the last paragraph that ．A．red color is bad for our healthB．people may get nervous in a red roomC．blue color can raise our body temperatureD．colors can influence our mood and health10．The passage is probably .A．a short novel B．a news reportC．a science report D．an advertisementCAre some people born clever, and others born stupid? Or is intelligence（智力）developed by our environment and our experience? Strangely enough, the answer to these questions is yes. In some degree, our intelligence is given to us at birth, and no education can make a talent out of a child born with low intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich environment. Therefore, the limits（极限）of person’s intelligence are fixed at birth, whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This point of view, now is held by most experts.It is easy to show that intelligence is something that we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be intelligence. If we take two strangers by chance from the population, it seems that their degree of intelligence will becompletely different. If, on the other hand, we compare two twins, they will very likely be asintelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually havesimilar intelligence, and this clearly suggests t hat intelligence depends on birth.Imagine now that we take two twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory separately where the work is boring.We would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this shows that environment as well as birth plays an important role. This conclusion （结论）is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact（接触）with each other, but who are not related at all are likely to have similar degree of intelligence.11. How is man’s intelligence given ?A. At birth.B. Through education.C. Both at birth and through education.D. Neither at birth nor through education.12. What does the underlined word “fixed”mean in the first paragraph?A. 确定B. 修理C. 发展D. 安排13. According the passage, if a child is born with low intelligence, what might happen to him later?A. Become a genius.B. Still become a genius if he should be given special education.C. Reach his intelligence limits in rich environment.D. Never reach his intelligence in his life.14. What can we learn from the example of the twins going to a university and to a factory?A. The importance of their intelligence.B. The role of environment on intelligence.C. The importance of their jobs.D. The part that birth plays.15. What statement is TRUE according to the passage?A. No education can help make a genius.B. Personality is important as intelligence which was given to people at birth.C. People who have similar degree of intelligence must be relatives.D. Environment influences people in intelligence developing.四．七选五Have you ever been bored and decided to check social media, only to find out that your best friend is at Disneyland, that one of your classmates is eating delicious pizza at your favorite pizza store, and that one of your soccer teammates is climbing the Eiffel Tower in Paris? Have you ever had that feeling that others are experiencing things and enjoy ing life more than you are? Oh, man! You’re missing out! 1.__________ Researchers call that feeling the fear of missing out or FOMO (Fear of Missing Out).Over 75% of young people report feeling FOMO from time to time.2._________ Unluckily, we only have so much time in the day and only so much money to spend on food or entertainment. It would be impossible for us to enjoy all the same activities we see others take part in on social media.Rather than realizing this basic truth, though, we usually let FOMO lead us to compare our lives with those of others on social media. This certainly leaves us feeling dissatisfied. Why? We know all the sides of our lives--both good and bad. 3.____________4.______________ FOMO makes us check social media more frequently, leading toaddiction and a negative(消极的）cycle that can be hard to break. Researchers have found that social media and FOMO can cause serious negative results, including feeling of depression, loneliness and boredom.So how do we break the cycle and avoid FOMO? 5._______ Instead, we should focus our attention on our real lives, including the people around us and all the things we’re grateful for.A. Have you ever experienced FOMO?B. At least that’s what you might think.C. As famous Theodore Roosev elt said, “Comparison (比较）is the thief of joy.”D. Researchers advise that we stop looking to social media for happiness.E. It’s so easy today to see what your friends are doi ng from the social media.F. But all we see on social media are the picture-perfect moments others share.G.If you let FO MO control you, the only thing you’ll really be missing out on is your own life.五．书面表达幸福是什么？幸福是父母为你营造的温馨的家，幸福是老师望向你时赞许的目光，幸福是孤独时朋友送来的一杯奶茶，幸福是……，请以“My Happiness”为题，写一件曾经发生过的令你感到幸福的事情，并谈谈你的感想。
