An interesting experiment is taking place at the Children’s Hospital in London.

Dogs, cats, and even horses help sick children to get better. There are a number of reasons why this treatment(治疗) is important. Dr. Marcus Finch of the Children’s Hospital explains, “Children and teenagers have many changes as they are growing up. When they have problems, it’s not easy for them to open up and talk.

At the age of 16, Einstein failed in several courses because he mixed with a group of naughty kids. One weekend morning, Einstein held a fishing rod and

was about to fish with those kids, his father stopped him and said to him calmly," Einstein, you're so fond of playing all the day that you failed in the examination. I'm so worried about your future with your mother."

"What are you worrying about? Jack and Robert also failed, but don't they go fishing as usual?"

"My boy, you can't think so." Looking at Einstein, his father said lovingly," There goes a fable in our hometown. I hope you can listen to it carefully.

"There were two cats playing on the roof. Once a cat fell into the chimney holding the other. When the two cats climbed out of the chimney, a cat's face was stained with the soot while the other's face was clean. Seeing the soot-faced cat, the clean cat thought its face was dirty and ugly, so it quickly ran to the riverside and washed its face. The soot-faced cat saw the clean-faced cat, thinking its face was also clean, so it hung out in the street.

"Einstein, no one can be your mirror. Only you are your own mirror. Taking other people to be your mirror, even a talented person may become a fool."

Hearing this, Einstein was ashamed to lay down his fishing rod and returned to his small room. Since then, Einstein often took himself as a mirror to examine and reflect, and kept hinting himself: I am unique, and no one is the same as me, so I needn't be as mediocre as others. This was why he succeeded.

You must see yourself clearly. Your future doesn't depend on how others do, but on how you are going to do.

B. Einstein used to study with a group of smart students.

C. The clean-faced cat thought its own face was dirty.

D. Only Einstein’s father was worried about his study.

57. What does the underlined word mediocre mean?

A. special                                                     B. outstanding

C. common                                                  D. smart

58. According to the passage, why do you think Einstein succeed?

A. He always took other people to be his mirror and learned from them.

B. He kept examining himself and telling himself what to do.

C. He did everything as his father told him after listening to the story.

D. He returned to his study as soon as he gave up fishing.

archer fish         velvet worm              Chameleons

 

In the animal world, animals have to catch their own food without tools(工具). How do they do it?

The archer fish lives in river in Southest Asia. It catches and eats insects(昆虫) that fly too near to the water. It has two different ways of hunting(捕猎). If the insect is less than a metre away, the archer fish jumps out of the water and catches it. If the insect is between one and two metres away, the fish hits it with water from its mouth.

 

Some animals use a sticky liquid(粘液) or glue to hunt their prey(猎物). The velvet worm has two “glue guns’’. It fires these at insects and the glue comes out in strings about one metre long. When the glue touches the insect, it drives quickly and the insect is caught.

 

Chameleons have very strong, sticky tongues. In fact, a chameleon’s tongue is longer than its body! When an insect flies too close, and the chameleon pushes its tongue out of its mouth to hit the insect and catch it. The insect doesn’t usually see the chameleon’s tongue because it moves too quickly!
