Some animals can easily find their way home after a long journey. How do they make it? Scientific research shows that they are born with certain unusual abilities for direction.

A certain kind of ants, for example, can count their steps to avoid getting lost. They can go as far as 110 metres and bring food home. These ants live in the open desert(沙漠), so they have nothing to guide them along the way. It's like someone walking six kilometres through a dark forest.

Some fish have an unbelievable sense of smell. They can smell even a single drop of their home water in a large sea area. Some sea birds have a similar ability. They are able to make a smell map of their flying area.

Some animals can sense the earth's magnetic field (磁场), while humans can't. This magnetic field guides a certain kind of fish when they swim a long way to a place and then back. How can this kind of fish do that? It is still a mystery. Scientists have no good answers yet.

However, animals with such unusual abilities still have difficulty dealing with environmental changes caused by human activities. For example, many birds depend on stars for direction, but they get lost easily at night when city light s are kept on all night. To solve this problem, we can simply turn off some lights at night. Clearly, one small act of humans may mean a lot to animals.

(1)、How can a certain kind of ants find their way?
A、By imagining the way. B、By counting their steps. C、By bringing food together. D、By walking through a forest.
(2)、What can some fish do with the help the earth's magnetic field?
A、They can swim as far as 110 metres and bring food home. B、They can smell even a single drop of their home water in a large area. C、They can swim a long way to a place and then back. D、They can make a smell map of their swimming area.
(3)、What are people advised to do according to the last paragraph?
A、To help animals. B、To travel at night. C、To keep city lights on. D、To develop unusual abilities.
(4)、What is the structure of the passage?
A、 B、 C、 D、
(5)、Which can be the best title for the passage?
A、Birds' Sense of Light B、Fish's Sense of Smell C、Animals' Sense of Direction D、Animals' Sense of Magnetic Field

   Americais a mobile society. Friendship between Americans can be close and real, yet disappearssoon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmasgreetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while, then no more,If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up thefriendship.

   Thiscan be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendship betweenus flows more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending(延伸) sometimesdeeply into both families.

   Americansare ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays and theirhome life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept theirhospitality (好客) easily.

   Anotherdifficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they includeus warmly in their personal everyday lives, they don't show their politeness tous if it requires a great deal of time.This is usually the opposite of thepractice in our country where we may be generous with our time. Sometimes,we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet afriend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends.Americans, however, express their welcome at home. But they truly cannot managethe time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine. They willprobably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. Andthey expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes,the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves to be treatedhospitably.

   ForAmericans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to theirhomes than to go to restaurants, except for purely business matters. So accepttheir hospitality at home!

Every year,Time magazine puts out its list of the year's best inventions.Some of them help us solve problems,while others make life easier or more fun.Here are three of the inventions on this year's list.Which one do you think is the best?

Life﹣like animals

At the Hologram Zoo(全息动物园) in Australia,you don't just see a giraffe.You see a group of giraffes running towards you and then over you."We show people things they have never seen before,"says the zoo's CEO.Visitors to the zoo can see life-like wonders.Thanks to hologram technology,the public can see wildlife while no animals have to be kept in cages.

Stopping fires

Alert California is a safety program in California.It uses AI to predict wildfires.The AI detector(探测器) uses more than a thousand cameras in forests across the state.It can spot smoke and other early signs of fire.In two months,the program correctly predicted 77 fires before any 911 calls came in.

Air on Mars

If astronauts land on Mars in the future,they'll need air to breathe and a way to get home.NASA's Moxie can help solve both problems.This small equipment can separate oxygen(氧气) from the atmosphere(大气) on Mars and help astronauts breathe.In addition,the oxygen can be used to provide energy for spaceships.This is important for sending astronauts home from Mars.
