“Everybody loves a bargain.” Is a well-known saying. One person’s useless, ugly, or broken object can be another person’s bargain. That is why so many Americans do not throw things away. They put them outside their house. They put on a "For Sale" sign. And, as simple as that, they have a yard sale.
The sellers put a paid announcement in a local newspaper. It tells when and where the yard sale will take place. These sales are very popular during weekends in spring, summer, and autumn.
Early in the morning, all the things to be sold are carried out of the house. Then they sit all day in the sunlight -- like tired guests at a party -- waiting for someone to take them home.
Just about anything can be sold at a yard sale. Sometimes, there are more clothes than anything else. Cooking equipment is also popular. So are old toys, tools, books, tables, and chairs. Then there are objects called "white elephants." A white elephant is something you think is extremely ugly or useless. It may be an electric light shaped like a fish. You feel a sharp pain whenever you look at it. To someone else, however, it might be a thing of beauty and joy.
Some people go to yard sales to find a special thing that they collect. It may be old toy trains, for example, or paintings of dogs. Experts say more Americans are collecting old things now than ever before. Most people who go to yard sales, however, are not looking for anything special. They might buy an object simply because it costs so little. They enjoy negotiating over prices, even if they really do not need the object. Later, they may hold their own yard sale to sell all the things they have bought.
1.What kind of things will go to a yard sale?
A.Cheap and ugly things. B.Things people no longer use.
C.Things out of season. D.Things of great value.
2.A white elephant refers to ______ .
A.something that can cause n feeling of pain
B.something disliked by the owners while appreciated by others
C.something sold at the lowest price
D.a toy shaped like a fish
3.Most people go to yard sales to ______ .
A.find Valuable paintings B.look for something special
C.find a bargain D.kill their time
4.Which of the following is NOT true about a yard sale?
A.It may not be held when the weather is very cold.
B.It can last for a whole day.
C.It is usually held with a party.
D.It is held outdoors.
5.We can infer from the last paragraph that ______ .
A.people may find something of great value on a yard sale
B.yard sales only attract those who have a low income
C.things on a yard sale can cost people a lot
D.most people who go to yard sales want to make money

Mary is digging in the ground for a photo, when along comes John. Seeing that there is no one in sight, John starts to scream. John’s angry mother rushes over and drives Mary away. Once his mum has gone, John helps himself to Mary’s potato.
We’ve all experienced similar annoying tricks when we were young—the brother who stole your ball and then got you into trouble by telling your parents you had hit him. But Mary and John are not humans. They’re African baboons(狒狒). __1._
John’s scream and his mother’s attack on Mary could have been a matter of chance, but John was later seen playing the same tricks on others. ___2.___
Studying behavior like this is complicated but scientists discovered apes(猿) clearly showed that they intended to cheat and knew when they themselves had been cheated. ___3.___ An ape was annoying him, so he tricked her into going away by pretending he had seen something interesting. When she found nothing, she “walked back, hit me over the head with her hand and ignored me for the rest of the day.”
Another way to decide whether an animal’s behavior is deliberate is to look for actions that are not normal for that animal. A zoo worker describes how an ape dealt with an enemy. “He slowly stole up behind the other ape, walking on tiptoe. When he got close to his enemy, he pushed him violently in the back, then ran indoors.” Wild apes do not normally walk on tiptoe. ___4.__ But looking at the many cases of deliberate trickery in apes, it is impossible to explain them all as simple copying.
It seems that trickery does play an important part in ape societies. ____5.__ Studying the intelligence of our closest relative could be the way to understand the development of human intelligence.
A. In most cases the animal probably doesn’t know it is cheating.
B. An amusing example of this comes from a psychologist working in Tanzania.
C. And playing tricks is as much a part of monkey behavior as it is of human behavior.
D. So the psychologists asked his colleagues if they had noticed this kind of trickery.
E. The ability of animals to cheat may be a better measure of their intelligence than their use of tools
F. This use of a third individual to achieve a goal is only one of the many tricks commonly used by baboons.
G. Of course it’s possible that it could have learnt from humans that such behavior works, without understanding why.
