    Zheng He was an amazing man. He was born in 1371. Eleven years later, he was caught by the army of a rich young man called Zhu Di and made to work for him. Over time the rich man saw that Zheng He was very clever and strong and they became close friends. In 1403 Zhu Di became the emperor of China and he asked Zheng He to join his government.

    The emperor wanted to learn more about the world and show other countries his power. He ordered many new ships to be built and made Zheng He their leader. Between 1405 and 1433, Zheng He led seven sea trips to different parts of the world. He certainly travelled to India, Africa and the Middle East. A few people think his ships have even reached South America and Australia.

    Each trip lasted between two and four years and it is believed that he sailed more than 50,000 kilometres during the years of his travels. Zheng He led a fleet with about 28,000 men and over 300 ships, such as boats for food, water and even soldiers' horses.

    On these trips he brought with him many Chinese goods like silk and medicine to give to foreign kings or to sell for local goods. He returned from each trip with boats which were filled with expensive things such as gold and treasure, foreign guests and strange animals like a giraffe.

    It is a pity that we may never learn everything about Zheng He's travels. The Columbus of the East, Zheng He, died in 1433. After that, the new emperor had these trips stopped and he burned almost all the books about Zheng He's travels, because he believed the trips were unlucky and too expensive. It is only in the last 50 years that historians have begun to carefully study the adventures of great Zheng He.

(1)、Why did Zhu Di want Zheng He to sail to many different countries?
A、To learn more about the world. B、To bring new countries under the control of China. C、To show other countries his power. D、Both A and C
(2)、What do we know about Zheng He from the passage?
A、He travelled to India and Africa. B、Each trip lasted six years. C、When he died, he was 72 years old. D、He was a great king.
(3)、Which of the following did Zheng He take to foreign countries from China?
A、Gold. B、Treasure. C、Giraffes. D、Silk.
(4)、What's the best title for this passage?
A、The emperor's seven sea trips B、Zheng He's travels to Western countries C、Zheng He, the Columbus of the East D、Zhu Di, the great emperor

Medflies (果蝇) are a big headache for farmers worldwide. They can lay their eggs in over 300 kinds of fruits and vegetables. The worst thing is that when they make their way into an area, it is hard to keep the products free of them.

Medflies lay eggs inside the poor fruits or vegetables. When the eggs break, they turn into worms that can seriously damage the products. The problem is that it can be hard to know that the flies are there until it's too late. The fruits and vegetables still look normal even after the eggs are laid inside. Once the damaged fruits and vegetables are sent to other places, the Medflies spread and reproduce at a surprisingly fast speed.

In the 1980s, three Medflies were found on a farm in California. To stop the problem from spreading, the local government set up a quarantine area (隔离区) where no fruits, nuts, or vegetables can be moved out. Meanwhile, it developed a program to keep Medflies under control. The plan involved using planes to spread millions of male Medflies out over the area. According to the scientists, these Medflies all have been treated with a special method to make sure that they can't help produce new Medflies. That means even though new eggs are laid, they will never grow.

Dropping millions of Medflies sounded like a bad idea, but to everyone's surprise, the program worked well. The government says the number of Medflies in California has shrunk by over 90%. Now we can fight Medflies with Medflies!

We all know that it is important to be honest, but who can honestly say that they've never told a lie(谎言)? Perhaps we comfort ourselves that most of the lies are "white lies". For example, someone cooks a terrible meal for us, but we lie and say that the food is"delicious". Or if a friend asks us what we think of his or her new haircut, we say"It's great!", even if we think it's awful. 

One of the main reasons that we tell a white lie is to try to make others feel better. However, when we lie and say that someone's haircut looks good, or when we say that we love a meal that we secretly don't like, are we really hoping to improve the situation for someone else?

Another reason for telling a white lie is to give encouragement. For example, when your friend asks you what you think of his or her singing, you say it's"wonderful", although you think it's not good. Perhaps your friend wants some frank opinions from you to improve. 

Finally, we may also tell a white lie when we want to protect others from bad news. If you have a bad day, do you tell your parents about it, or do you hide your tears and lie that your day is"fine"? When you tell a lie, don't you think your parents would want to listen to you and understand your feelings?

Perhaps the meal you said was"delicious" will be served every time you visit. Your friend may not trust your opinion again if he or she found out you had lied about his or her"wonderful" singing. Others couldn't truly understand you if you only share good news instead of bad news.

A big test makes students feel fear and anxiety(焦虑). But taking tests is something faced by all students at all levels of schools. How do you prepare for the tests as well as reducing fear?{#blank#}1{#/blank#} Maybe they will be of use to you.

Calm down. Don't panic(恐慌). {#blank#}2{#/blank#}You will be focusing on the fear, and not the coming test. Many times, fear can even prevent you doing well. If you panic, take deep breaths, and think that you can do this.

Take notes and ask questions. If you come across what you can't understand, write it down.
