The eyes are extremely precious (宝贵的) to us. That is why we say “Mind your eyes” when telling someone to be careful.
Not only human beings and animals have eyes; many things also have “eyes”—the eyes of a ship, the eye of a needle, the eye of a typhoon(台风), and so on. Some eletric apparatuses（设备） also have an eye—a magic eye(电子眼). It is an eletronic device that controls something like the automatic opening of a door.
Our eyes have a completely different use from that of animals’ and the eyes of things. When you “ have an eye to do something”, it means you “ plan to do it”. If you see “see eye to eye with your friends in this respect”, you can tell whether they are good or not.
The most important use of our eyes is “opening our eyes”. “To see with half an eye the truth of a situation” is to see if somebody is lying.
1. What do you mean by saying “ Mind your eye”?
A. Do you mind using your eyes? B. Take care of your eyes.
C. Be careful. D. Can you see everything clearly?
2. When we use “ a magic eye:, in fact we use _____ .
A. the automatic opening of a door B. the eye of eletric apparatuses
C. the way to make something work
D. the thing which controls something automatiaclly
3. What’s the Chinese for “ have an eye for… ”?
A.对…有鉴赏力 B 有一只看…的眼睛
C.能观察… D. 喜欢看…
4. You can see _____ that he and his wife are happy together.
A. with your eye open B. with half an eye
C. with eye to eye D. with your eye over
5. Which is the best title for the passage?
A. Take Care of Our Eyes. B. Everything Has an Eye.
C. We Must Love Our Eyes. D. Eye.
加拿大人是怎样对待自己的宠物的呢？阅读短文，选择最佳答案回答问题。
In Canada you can find dogs, cats, horses etc. in almost every family. These are their pets. People love these pets and regard them as their good friends. Before they keep them at their houses, they take them to animal hospitals to give them needles so that they won’t carry disease. They have special(特殊的)animal food stores, though they can get animal food in almost every store. Some people spend around two hundred Canadian dollars a month on animal food. When you visit people’s homes, they would be very glad to show you their pets and they are very proud of them. You will also find almost every family has a bird feeder in their garden. All kinds of birds are welcomed to come and have a good meal. They are free to come and go and nobody is allowed to kill any animals in Canada. If you killed an animal, you would be punished.

感冒是怎样发生的？又该如何预防呢？阅读病人与医生间的对话，选择最佳答案回答问题。
Dear Dr. Cory,
Since December every one of my sisters has been sick with the flu, including me. Aren’t sickness supposed to stop since it is spring? How can I stop getting sick?
Dear Alicia and Natalie,
Influenza (In-flew-En-za,流感), or flu, is caused by a group of viruses(病毒). These viruses can easily be passed from one person to another.
Flu viruses enter your body through your nose or mouth. They are spread from person to person by direct contact with a person infected with the flu, by droplet infection(飞沫传染), or by touching your hand to your nose or mouth. Droplet infection occurs when someone talks, sneezes, or coughs and sprays(喷射) viruses into the air on little droplets of saliva(唾液) or mucus(黏液). You become infected by breathing these droplets in through your nose or mouth.
In the United States, flu season can begin as early as November and continue through March, although this can vary by region. Regular handwashing is one of the best ways to protect yourself from flu viruses, along with avoiding contact with sick people.
There are also flu vaccines (疫苗) available that should be given to children with chronic(慢性的)conditions such as asthma (气喘) . Flu vaccine can be given to any healthy child six months of age or older. The vaccine helps to prevent flu and infections and prevent spreading flu to others. There is a new nasal(鼻子的)-spray flu vaccine that will probably be available in the near future. A nasal-spray vaccine would be a nice change from getting another shot!
1. According to the passage, what question do Alicia and Natalie ask Dr. Cory?
A. The question is “ Where can they be given flu vaccines”.
B. The question is “ How can flu viruses enter people’s body”.
C. The question is “ How can they stop getting sick”.
2. Which following statement is NOT true?
A. Only flu viruses enter your body through your nose or mouth.
B. We will get sick by shaking hands with an inflected person.
C. In the US, flu season can begin as early as winter and late through early spring.
3. How can a six-month child be prevented from getting flu?
A. Do more exercises and take some medicine. B. Be given flu vaccines.
C. Stop contacting with some other people.
4. What is the best title for this passage?
A. Flu Virus B. Ask Doctor Cory
C. A New Nasal-spray Flu Vaccine
