The day for the great balloon competition finally arrived．Every insect in the garden had been hard, and now they were preparing to begin their routines．The balloon competitions were always something really special．
Each time, the flying insects were favourite to win, because they could seize the balloon strings and fly off in all directions, creating all sorts of in the air． , on this occasion there were some rather unusual insects taking part: a group of ants．Of course, expected that they could do anything special．They were so light that no ant had ever to take part, but it was quite impressive to see all the ants all organized and prepared．
So the competition began, and the insects took their turns, performing beautiful movements with the balloons．As always, the butterflies left everyone with their twist and turns, and their wonderful colours．When it was time for the ants to perform, it seemed like the competition had already been decided．
For the time in living memory, the ants shared just one balloon between them, and one by one they climbed up the balloon string, a thin black thread of ants．When all the string was covered, the last ant climbed his teammates to reach the balloon． he got there, he climbed onto the top of the balloon．
This strange attracted everyone's curiosity, and they were just about to witness the most important : the ant opened his jaws as wide as he could．．．and then he made a violent movement at the balloon with all his strength!
The result was powerful! The balloon began blowing out its air, flying about, here and there, doing a thousand turns and spins, while the ants made all kinds of beautiful shapes out of the string．
Of course, that acrobatic(杂技般的) flight with quite a hard landing, but it didn't ．The creativity and teamwork of the ant performance was so that the crowd didn't even have to vote for there to be a winner．
From then on, in that garden, everyone understood how much could be achieved by working ．In the years to come, the balloon competitions were full of displays carried out by teams, and they put on some wonderful routines; something those individual insects could never have achieved on their own．

For several days I saw little of Mr. Rochester. In the morning he seemed very busy with business, and in the afternoon gentlemen from the neighborhood called and sometimes stayed to dine with him. When his foot was well enough, he rode out a great deal.
During this time, all my knowledge of him was limited to occasional meetings about the house, when he would sometimes pass me coldly, and sometimes bow and smile. His changes of manner did not offend me, because I had nothing to do with the cause of them.
One evening, several days later, I was invited to talk to Mr. Rochester after dinner. He was sitting in his armchair, and looked not quite so severe, and much less gloomy. There was a smile on his lips, and his eyes were bright, probably with wine. As I was looking at him, he suddenly turned, and asked me, “Do you think I am handsome, Miss Eyre?”
The answer somehow slipped from my tongue before I realized it: “No，sir.” “Ah，you really are unusual! You are a quiet, serious little person, but you can be almost rude.” “Sir, I'm sorry. I should have said that beauty doesn't matter, or something like that.” “No, you shouldn't! I see, you criticize my appearance, and then you stab (刺) me in the back! You have honesty and feeling. There are not many girls like you. But perhaps I go too fast. Perhaps you have awful faults to counterbalance your few good points.”
I thought to myself that he might have too. He seemed to read my mind, and said quickly, “Yes, you're right. I have plenty of faults. I went the wrong way when I was twenty-one, and have never found the right path again. I might have been very different. I might have been as good as you, and perhaps wiser. I am not a bad man, take my word for it, but I have done wrong. It wasn't my character, but circumstances which were to blame. Why do I tell you all this? Because you're the sort of person people tell their problems and secrets to, because you're sympathetic and give them hope.”
It seemed he had quite a lot to talk to me. He didn't seem to like to finish the talk quickly, as was the case for the first time.
“Don't be afraid of me, Miss. Eyre,” he continued. “You don't relax or laugh very much, perhaps because of the effect Lowood school has had on you. But in time you will be more natural with me, and laugh, and speak freely. You're like a bird in a cage. When you get out of the cage, you'll fly very high. Good night.”
51. At the beginning, Miss Eyre's impressions of Mr. Rochester was all except __________.
A. busy B. sociable C. dull D. changeable

53. From what Mr. Rochester told Miss Eyre, we can conclude that he wanted to __________.
A. tell her all his troubles
B. tell her his life experience
C. blame her for misunderstanding him
D. change his circumstances
54. At the end of the passage, Mr. Rochester sounded __________.
A. rude B. cold C. polite D. encouraging

A. Miss Eyre was at Lowood School before she came to Mr. Rochester’s house.

C. Miss Eyre was honest, brave and confident.

Not many organisms can survive in this severe environment, the Sahara Desert, where daytime temperatures can reach 140 degrees Fahrenheit. But an insect called the Saharan silver ant grows well. They rush out onto the sand from their protected nests to gather up the bodies of insects that have died from the heat.
“The hotter the day, the more insect bodies they will find. The more food they have.” said Sarah Pfeffer, an animal behaviorist at Ulm University in Germany. She says that to avoid sinking into the Saharan sand, where they could meet the same fate（命运）as their lunch, silver ants have to be fast.
To document just how quickly the ants move, Pfeffer and her colleagues set up high-speed cameras above a channel between the entrance to the hungry ants’ nest and a food source. The researchers recorded top speeds approaching 35 inches per second.“But if you really look at how big the animals are and you calculate the body length per second, you will come up with a walking speed that is an astonishing 108 body-lengths per second.”That figure makes them the fastest known ant on the planet. By comparison, cheetahs(猎豹）top out at about 16 body lengths per second. The videos showed how the ants achieve such amazing speeds. As they accelerate, their leg movements become synchronized(同步). They increase their running length by bringing all six feet off the sand at once, which Pfeffer describes as a gallop. “Really all legs are lifted from the ground. They are in the air, but it’s not jumping. It’s a very smooth run that they have.”
A closely related ant called Cataglyphis fortis only reaches about 24 inches per second, or two-thirds of the silver ant's max.
The Saharan silver ants' speeds may be impressive, but two insects are even faster. The Califormia coastal mite (壁虱) and the Australian tiger beetle, both of which also grow well at near-deadly temperatures. It seems that to beat the heat, it pays to be fleet.
1.What does the underlined word "they" refer to?
A.The insects. B.The silver ants.
C.Pfeffer and her colleagues. D.The high-speed cameras.
2.How long is a Saharan silver ant?
A.About 0.14 inches. B.About 0.08 inches.
C.About 0.22 inches. D.About 0.32 inches.
3.How do the ants accelerate while running?
A.By jumping smoothly. B.By lifting all their legs.
C.By sinking into the sand. D.By flying in the air.
4.Why does the author mention another two animals in the last paragraph?
A.To introduce two speedy animals.
B.To present the near-deadly environment.
C.To show high temperature makes fast speed.
D.To indicate silver ants rank third in speed.
