Last Friday, a Tibetan(藏族的) postman became the first woman postal worker to give a speech at the World Postal Meeting in Bern, the capital of Switzerland. She was Nima Lamu, a postwoman of Yunling Post office, Yunnan Province.

She said, “I had to cross the Lancang River along a steel wire. My younger brother nearly died in the river before. I felt so afraid when I was asked for the first time to cross the river. But when I reached the other side, I found that I was flying.”

Her area is locked in (封闭) two snowy mountains and three big rivers. She said, “:What worries me most is the snakes on the way. Sometimes, I throw little stones toward them and I often tell my self ‘Keep going’. ”

Ten years ago, it took Nima five days to finish each week’s mail. She had to face snowstorms, floods, snakes and loneliness on her 350-kilometer journey. Nima said, “The situation has developed a lot these years. Now we have a bridge that was built across the Lancang River in 2006.”

Nima never dreamed she would become famous one day when she first look up her job, 12 years ago. Changes have been seen in recent years as more tourists visit Nima’s hometown. But one thing remains unchanged: she is still the carrier of the villagers’ hopes and dreams.

1.Nima was invited to the meeting in Bern because she was _________.

A. the only Tibetan postman in China            B. the first postwoman in the world

C. doing a hard job as a postwoman          D. making her village famous overnight

A. he once fell into the river             .    B. He was killed by a snake.

C. He died when swimming in the river.      D. He got hurt when building the bridge.

3.Which picture is TRUE about Nima’s crossing the river ten years ago?

4.What will Nima do if she finds a snake on the way?

A. Kill it with stones.         B. Keep it off and go on.

C. Throw it away and leave.     D. turn around and run.

5.What is RTUE about Nima?

Last week, Chicago became the first city in the US to join the “Lights Out Plan”. People turned off the lights in the city’s tallest buildings, so that thousands of birds could get to their winter homes. Every year in autumn, some birds fly over Chicago on their way to the south, and come back the next spring．

Lights mean danger to birds. Birds find their way by looking at the stars in the sky. Lights in tall buildings are so bright that birds may mistake them as stars. This means they can not find the right way to go home．

This month, about 300 types of birds are flying over Chicago to go back to the south to live through the cold winter. Birds fly to warmer places for a few reasons. Many birds cannot live in the cold, so they fly to warmer places. But there are other reasons，too. Birds need to look for food in the south. Another reason is that they want to have baby birds. Many birds like to have their baby birds in the same “house” they lived in last year, so they fly back there.

There are about 9,000 kinds of birds in the world, and about 600 kinds of birds migrate（迁徙）. Some birds can fly a very long way. Sometimes they fly to other countries. We have fewer birds today because there are fewer places for birds．

1.Why did people in Chicago turn off their lights last week?

A. Because people wanted to save money．

B. Because people liked the dark night．

C. Because people were afraid that birds would make much noise．

D. Because people were afraid that birds would lose their way．

2.Today we have fewer birds because __________．

A. lots of birds are often ill　　 B. people kill lots of birds

C. there are fewer places for birds　　 D. other animals eat them

3.Which of the following statements is NOT true?

A. All birds fly to warmer places every year．

B. Some birds have to fly to warmer places in autumn．

C. Some birds can fly a long way to other countries．

D. About 600 kinds of birds migrate in the world．
