Perhaps this is the strangers hiding place. The place is empty. But there is a loaf of bread and the remains of a fire inside the cave. This must be his place! So I decide to hide in the cave and wait. After a while I hear footsteps.“It is a lovely evening, my dear Watson,” says a voice I know well. “How are you?”The tall thin stranger is at the entrance it is Sherlock Holmes!“Holmes! Im so happy to see you,” I say as get up. “What are you doing here? Why are you not in London?” “Im trying to find out what is happening,” replies Holmes. “And Ive got some interesting information. Miss Stapleton is not Mr Stapletons sister, but his wife.”“Good heavens, Holmes! Are you sure of this?”“In your report you say that Stapleton was a teacher. After a little investigation, I discover the teacher is clearly our Mr Stapleton.”“Look, Watson, you must go back to Baskerville Hall and stay with Sir Henry.”Suddenly we hear a terrible scream. “Oh, my goodness!” I gasp. “What is it?”“The hound!” cries Holmes. “Come, Watson! Come!” We run quickly over the moor.“We are too late, Watson.”A man is lying on the ground. As we come near, we see the dead body of Sir Henry Baskerville! He is wearing his brown tweed suit.“Oh, no!” says Holmes,“It is not Sir Henry why, it is the escaped prisoner, Selden!”Then, suddenly, it is all clear to me. I remember that Sir Henry gave his old suit to Barrymore, and Barrymore probably gave it to Selden.“Then Selden is dead because of this suit,” says Holmes. “Think, Watson! Someone gives the hound some of Sir Henrys clothes.”Suddenly we see someone walking towards us. It is Stapleton.Then he sees the dead body and adds: “Oh no! Whats this? Is our dear friend Sir Henry dead?”Taken from The Hound of the Baskervilles33. The underlined word “remain” in Paragraph 1 probably means “_”.A. 指纹B. 路标C. 线索D. 残余物34.

Because he wants to find out if Sir Henry is dead.D. Because he wants to check Selden is all rightCPeople usually use mouth and also some body languages to talk with each other. When we have good news, we want to talk about it with our good friends and when something bad happens, we make it known to others soon. But do you know that some trees can also talk about news with each other? Of course, no trees move lip and say words just as people do. It may sound strange, but some trees really try to talk with each other in other ways. Willows (柳树) are the best-known of these trees. When insects begin biting (叮) a willow, the tree sends out a special smell at once. This smell tells the other willows that harmful insects are coming near. All of them quickly make a chemical (化学物质) in their leaves. This chemical may kill the insects. The insects do not like it and will fly away soon. In this way, the willows protect themselves from the insects.The next time when you take a walk in the woods, maybe the trees are talking to each other quietly. How magical nature is!37. What can we know from Paragraph 1?A. Few people like using their body languages to talk with each other.B. Some trees can say words just as people do.C. When some bad things happen, we dont want to tell others.D. Some trees can talk with each other in other ways.38. What does a willow use to talk?A. Its smell.B. Its leaves.C. Its branches.D. Its fruit.39. Why do insects fly away when they “feel” willows talk? Because _.A. it makes them stop eatingB. it makes them sleepyC. it may make them dieD. it makes them feel noisy40. Where can we read this passage?A. In a storybook.B. In a science book.C. In a travel guide.D.

However, most Chinese people think the Americans habit of drinking ice water is also strange and even unhealthy. Some old people would carry a tea kettle (茶壶) when they travel. Chinese doctors advise (建议) more people to take on the habit of drinking hot water especially for women.But in Western countries, drinking hot water isnt common. Westerners often have drinks with ice, not just on hot days but almost every day.There is a story online about an American, who has been in Beijing for over five years.

Finally the man received the hot water but felt cold stares from every corner of the restaurant.Westerners wonder why Chinese people drink hot water as Chinese are wondering why Westerners drink cold water. This cultural difference is not a simple problem, but related to (与有关联) history, culture and science.As a matter of fact, many teenagers now like bottled water for daily drinking.
