It was pretty late, and the sky was dark. There were no adults or parents around, so the teens

18、were just chatting and enjoying the fresh air. At about 10:15 pm, they were surprised to see a figure emerging from the bushes below. At first, they thought it was a fox or some other kind of animal. But they didnt want anything to end up dead.Dropping their conversation, the two rushed towards the

19、animal hoping to save it. But when they got closer, they realized it wasnt an animal it was a 3-year-old girl heading straight for a busy highway. The boys hadnt realized it was a little girl at first but now, time stood still. The little girl was all alone and there wasnt an adult in sight. But wha

20、t was even worse, they soon realized, there was a truck coming directly her way.Both teens raced for the little girl, but Dalaurence got there first.

Countries which actively encourage the development of different languages gain a range of rewards, from more suc

26、cessful exports to a more creative workforce.“Language matters on a larger national level and at the level of smaller companies,” said Hogan-Brun, a researcher in language study. Switzerland, for example, owes 10% of its GDP to its multilingual background. The country has four national languages. Br

27、itain, on the other hand, is thought to lose about 3.5% of its GDP every year since 95% of its population speaks English, which is the primary language of the country.What Hogan-Brun said is reasonable. Languages partly can help build trade relations. A study of small and medium-sized companies in S

28、weden and Germany found that those that invested more in languages were able to export more goods. German companies that invested heavily in multilingual staff added 10 export countries to their markets. Companies that invested less said they missed out on business deals.Researchers have also long s

29、tressed the individual benefits of speaking more than one language. Several studies show that languages help promote earning power. According to a Canadian study, women and men who can speak several languages earn 3.6% and 6.6% more than their English-only colleagues respectively. The twist: This is

30、 true even if they dont use their second language for work. “It seems that you dont have to actually speak a second language on the job to receive the financial rewards,” said an economics professor. He thought that this was because knowing a second language was seen as a sign of power. Beyond these

31、 immediate economic rewards, languages can help a countrys workforce in long-term ways. Multilingualism has been shown to delay memory loss. It has also been associated with a better ability to concentrate and process information.8. What can multilingual countries expect?A. Large numbers of imported

32、 goods.B. Productive workers with great creativity.C. New chances of developing education.D. Powerful comprehensive national power.9.

D 10. C 11. CDFossils discovered in Liaoning province have challenged the theory that the Archaeopteryx

35、 is the earliest known bird.Research of the fossils led by Pascal Godefroit and his team from the Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences revealed that the dinosaur bird Aurornis xui, like the Archaeopteryx, existed nearly 150 million years ago. Godefroit told British-based Daily Mail, “The evol

36、utionary development shows that dinosaur birds were already diversified in northern China during the Middle-Late Jurassic.”The study, published in the journal Nature, showed that Aurornis xui was 50 cm in length and had tiny teeth used for hunting and defense, similar to other dinosaurs. Godefroit s

37、aid the results support a “single origin of powered flight”, which suggests that all dinosaurs that became birds took flight around the same time, and eventually lost hunting and defensive features, like teeth, during adaptation.Hu Dongyu, a professor at Shenyang Normal University, pointed out that

38、fossils of some dinosaurs show that the legs initially had long feathers, which suggests they assisted wings in flight. “But the long feathers on the legs degenerated as the wings became strong enough. This is not the first time that fossil evidence has showed the evolution path from dinosaurs to bi

39、rds,” said Hu. “The initial question was whether these dinosaur birds existed before the Archaeopteryx, but as we dig deeper into them, the age became irrelevant. And now the bone of contention is whether all these dinosaur birds are dinosaurs or birds.”One fossil, found in Liaoning in 2009 and stud

40、ied by scientists led by Xu Xing from the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing, showed that the earliest dinosaur bird was Anchiornis huxleyi, a flying dinosaur that lived 160 million years ago. Another fossil studied by Xu and his colleagues, also believed to be a dinosaur bird, was named Xiaotin

41、gia zhengi. “Aurornis xui, Anchiornis huxleyi and Xiaotingia zhengi are similar dinosaur bird fossils,” Hu added. “The earlier research suggested that all dinosaur birds were dinosaurs, not birds. However, recent research suggests the opposite. So there is a long way to go to draw a conclusion.”12.

42、What is the topic of the text?A. The origin of birds.B. The adaptability of birds.C. The time when dinosaurs appeared.D. The reason why dinosaurs died out.13. In what way was Aurornis xui similar to other dinosaurs?A. The speed of its flight.B. The force of its defense.C. The length of its feathers.

43、D. The feature of its teeth.14. What does the underlined part “the bone of contention” in paragraph 4 mean?A. The bones of birds.B. The focus of debate.C. The similarity of theories.D. The conclusion of research.15. What does Hu think of dinosaur birds?A. They were dinosaurs.B. They need further stu

68、Walk waved her arm back just like her dad had taught her and threw the stone with full strength.She watched the stone skip once, twice. and to her amazement, the stone went on skipping and eventually, on the seventh skip, made it across the river onto the shore of the opposite side.
