阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项
A
I lie there, listening to my four brothers. James, the youngest, laughs in his sleep. His dreams are funny. Sometimes he wakes himself up laughing, but he never remembers the joke. The light comes in through the window. A bird begins its song.
"How can you live in that place, all crowded together like olives in a jar?" This is Max
talking. He is an only child. He knows only space and light and science. But we don'tcomplain. No one gets lonely. The winter can't hurt us with all that body heat.
A month ago, six relatives came. I didn't even know their names. I slept in the bath with a towel for a sheet. In the summer, when my distant cousins arrived, I slept in the yard, in an old tent. The air was cool, and the tent full of holes, so I could see the stars. They stayed a month, like a traveling circus, all shouts and action and fighting until the sun went down. When they left, it felt like a storm passing over the hills. I returned to my bed, my sleepless nights, and James' laughter.
The bird sings louder now. It's finding its voice.
My mother is a widow. She is raising us alone. You could say I'm the man of the house. That's why I take care of the boys. She cleans all day in a rich man's apartment, comes home, and carries on cleaning. There's always one of us with blood on his knees or a face full of dirt. If she had six pairs of hands, it wouldn't be enough. I work after school, with my friend Max and his father-in-law. We move furniture from house to house: tables, chairs, pianos as big as cars. They say I'm a good worker. I take after my mother.
Suddenly the light hits me in the face and someone says, "Get up, sleepyhead. " The bird's song is lost in the sound of water running and yawns and bodies moving. James laughs. A new day begins.
56. Who is the writer?
A. He is the eldest brother of James. B. He is the eldest brother of Max.
C. He is the youngest brother of James. D. He is the youngest brother of Max.

B. He hates his brothers because they are naughty.
C. He wishes he could live as'cheerful a life as his friend's.
D. He loves his family and works hard for it.

What is the top hit single of 2006? It's "Don't Wanna Grow up"!
Taiwan girl band S. H. E took home the gold hit award at the 2006 Hong Kong TVB8Top Chart Awards (金曲榜) last week, with "Don’t Wanna Grow Up" from their eighthalbum "Once Upon A Time".
It's the first time S. H. E has won the award. The three members, Selina, Hebe and Ella were all very excited about it. They not only performed the song at the award ceremony, but also offered big hugs (拥抱) when giving awards to other artists.
"Don't Wanna Grow Up" is a song with light tunes and easy words. Its music writer Zuo Anan used the tunes from Mozart's Symphony No. 40 as the refrain (副歌). That
gives the song a very classical feeling. The song has a similar theme to that of Peter Pan, the boy who doesn't grow up. "I don't wanna grow up. When I grow up there won't be fairy tales in the world. I don't wanna grow up. I'd rather be ignorant and foolish. " In the song, S. H. E expresses young people's common fear of the adult world and the desire to stay young forever.
The song has been quite popular among high school students since it came out. Xiao Xue, a Senior 1 student from Shanghai, said that she often hums (哼歌) the refrain part herself.
"I like the words too," she said, "I often wish that I could go back to my childhood, when I had enough time to play and didn't have to worry about all the exams. "
S. H. E said that the song also expresses their true feelings. Their great success in the past six years has led to the three young girls heavy workloads and forced them to grow up very quickly. "When we first started singing, we were quite carefree and we had our own musical dreams," said S. H. E; " 'Don't Wanna Grow Up' reminds us of those happy times and of our original dreams. "
60. Which would be the best title of the passage?
A. Children's fear towards growing up
B. Pop singers with the name S. H. E
C. Song about Xiao Xue from Shanghai
D. Top hit single of 2006
61. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. The girl band S. H. E has many fans among students.
B. The song "Don't Wanna Grow up" was composed by Zuo Anan.
C. Peter Pan is a disabled boy who stays young.
D. S.H. E does have their dreams of music.
62. The tunes of the refrain of the song are
A. pop B. classical C. folk D. hip--hop
63. We can learn from the passage that
A. Taiwan girl band S. H. E were less excited when awarded the prize
B. teenagers are somehow in fear of growing up nowadays
C. the members of S. H. E are actually foolish in mind
D. girls can easily succeed when they step into the field of singing
C
Have you ever watched a dog put up its ears and bark at the air? That dog has just
heard a sound that is too high-pitched for you to hear.
The Science of Sound
Objects that are vibrating (震动), moving back and forth quickly, make sounds.Rhythmic sound vibrations produce sound waves. Sound waves travel in every direction,like ripples in a lake after a rock is thrown in. The frequency of a sound is the number of waves that pass a given point each second. The more rapidly an object vibrates, the greater the frequency of sound it makes. Frequency is measured in hertz. One hertz equals one sound wave per second.
The frequency of sound determines the degree of highness or lowness of the sound. A high-pitched sound has a higher frequency than a low-pitched sound. Humans hear sounds that have frequencies from about 20 hertz to 20,000 hertz.
Seeing with Sound
Sound with a frequency higher than 20,000 hertz is called ultrasound （超声波）. In other words, ultrasound is too high-pitched for humans to hear. However, many animals can hear ultrasound. Bats can hear higher sounds than any other animal. Some can hear up to 210,000 hertz. Bats send out lots of high-pitched squeaks (尖叫声) and then listen to the echoes (回声) bouncing off things like insects. The shorter the time interval between the squeak and the echo, the closer they are to the insects. Using sound to find or "see" things is called echolocation.
Dolphin Sounds
Another animal that uses ultrasound is the dolphin. Dolphins can hear sounds up to about 150,000 hertz. Dolphins use sound waves to find food underwater. They make clicking sounds that hit whatever is around them and then bounce back to the dolphins. Dolphins can send as many as 2,000 clicks per second. Dolphins' ultrasound ability is so sensitive that they can detect small fish from 10 feet away.
Now what about the dog that heard a sound that you did not? The .sound was his owner using an ultrasonic whistle ( 口哨声) to call him home. Because dogs can hear up to 50,000 hertz, the dog at the park will head home.
64. Which of these statements is TRUE about the frequency of sound?
A. Frequency is measured in hertz per minute.
B. A high-pitched sound has a lower frequency than a low-pitched sound.
C. People can hear sounds that have frequencies less than 20,000 hertz.
D. Sound with a frequency higher than 20,000 hertz is called vibration.
65. Which animal can hear ultrasound over six times more than human beings?
A. A bat and a dog. B. A dog and a dolphin.
C. A dolphin and a bat. D. No other animal but bat.
66. Which of the following is an example of echolocation?
A. The bat caught the insect in mid-air and flew off to eat it.
B. The dolphin made clicking sounds that bounced off the fish and back to it.
C. The person heard an echo when he shouted into the valley.
D. The dog heard his owner's ultrasonic whistle because he used ultrasound.
D
