Frogs are animals that can live both in water and on land. There are more than 5,000 kinds of frogs on the earth. The earliest known frogs lived about 190 million years ago and the frogs today still look the same. Here are some fun things that you might not know about frogs. Enjoy!
The Biggest and the Smallest Frogs
Some frogs can be very big. The biggest kind of frog is the Goliath Frog in West Africa. Its body can be nearly 30cm long, about the size of a large cat. The Gold Frog and the Poison Frog are the smallest frogs in the world. They are less than 1cm long. Though the Poison Frog is very small, it is not weak at all. It is dangerous. Any animal that eats it will die very soon.
The Best Jumpers
Frogs are very good at jumping. They developed jumping legs so that they would not be eaten by other large animals. Using their big strong legs, more frogs can jump over 20 times their own length. It is like a person jumping over about 30,48. The Australian Rocket Frog can even jump over 2m, which is 50 times its body length(5.5cm). That might be the reason why frogs are called the best jumpers on the earth.
The Cryogenic Animal
Some frogs like the Common Wood Frog have a special ability to live in very cold places. When the temperature goes down, they become ice frogs. 2/3of their body water freezes. Their hearts stop, and their breathing stops too. You may think they are dead, but in fact they are not. Maybe we humans can learn the way that the frogs do for medical purpose.
1.The earliest frogs lived about ________ million years ago.
A. 20 B. 30 C. 50 D. 190

From driving to landing on moon, more and more human tasks are being taken over by artificial intelligence(AI-人工智能). It will make everyday tasks easier and bring benefits to different industries.
And yet, like any other technology, AI will also bring risks and dangers. When people mention that AI could be dangerous, they think of the situation in films where an AI program decides to kill or enslave all humans. While this possibility is unlikely for now, there are many other dangers that AI could bring to mankind.
In February 2018, a group of AI experts got together to discuss the possible misuse of AI. What they found was that “Every AI advance by the good guys is an advance for the bad guys, too”. Their main worry was that criminals could use AI for many bad purposes, including using AI to create websites that could steal people’s personal information. Another possible risk was faster hacking(黑客)—AI programs could be taught to find weaknesses in software and break into computer systems. Some other risks were as dramatic as the ones we see in books and movies. For example, long-distant attacks could be made easier through the use of AI. And, finally, there were some worries on imitating voices as well. It is possible that AI could be used to make false photos and videos. In china, tech giant Baidu has developed a program called Deep Voice that can “clone” anyone’s voice by studying a 3.7-second audio sample (声音样本).
Many people in the tech world have expressed worry about AI. People like US businessmen Bill Gates and Elon Musk have called for the industry to be more strictly controlled, as there are few laws currently governing the use of AI. Famous British Physicist Stephen Hawking even thought AI could finally cause the end of mankind. “Once humans develop artificial intelligence, it will take off and redesign itself at an alarming rate. Humans…couldn’t compete and would be replaced.”
1.What cannot possibly be done by AI right now?
A.Driving cars. B.Landing on moon.
C.Playing games. D.Ruling all humans.
2.Which saying has a similar meaning with the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3?
A.Every coin has two sides. B.Prevention is better than cure.
C.Risk nothing, gain nothing. D.One’s meat is another’s poison.
3.How many misuses of AI are mentioned in Paragraph 3?
A.One. B.Two.
C.Three. D.Four.
4.Why does the author mention Stephen Hawking’s words?
A.To show Hawking’s perfect prediction.
B.To strengthen the high position of Hawking.
C.To help readers understand the serious situation.
D.To introduce the famous scientist--Stephen Hawking.
5.What does the whole passage mainly talk about?
A.Risks and dangers of AI. B.Guidance of AI usage.

Penguins are flightless birds that spend half their time on land and half in the water.
1. They have dark and white feathers, and their wings have evolved into flippers (脚蹼). Most penguins feed on fish, squid and other forms of sea life caught while swimming.
2. They are mostly found in groups that include thousands of penguins. Penguins each have their own unique mating call, and they use that to locate their mate and chicks in such a large group.
Although almost all penguin species are native to the Southern Hemisphere, they are not found only in cold Antarctica.3. Several species are even found in the temperate zone, and one species, the Galátpagos penguin, lives near the equator (赤道).
Unfortunately, many penguin species worldwide are facing threats. The biggest is climate change and global warming. As the earth warms up, the sheets of ice have melted, and the algae (藻类)that grow under the ice decrease. The algae are eaten by tiny creatures called zooplankton. When there is a drop in zooplankton, it affects the fish that depend on it.4.
Another major threat is from oil spills. If coated with oil, penguins cannot float or swim in water. Also, if oil is swallowed, penguins will die from poison.5.
A.These birds are very social.
B.In fact, only a few of them live so far south.
C.Penguins are highly adapted for life in the water.
D.The biggest threat for penguins comes from humans.
E.They have a tendency to live in a community together.
F.As a result, penguins have less fish to eat and thus starve.
G.Others include overfishing, illegal egg harvesting, and natural enemies.

This activity will melt away the pounds, build your body and leave you on an emotional high. Yet the form of exercise, the fitness trend of the year, does not require gym membership or a personal trainer. All you need to do is walk.
"Walking is a refreshing alternative to complicated aerobic （氧）routines and overpriced gym membership," says personal trainer Lucy Knight, author of a new book on the exercise. “It is free, enjoyable and already a part of everyday life. All you need to do is correct your technique, walk faster and for longer and you will lose weight?"
There is much evidence of the benefits of walking. Scientists at the University of Pittsburgh recently discovered that overweight people who walked briskly （快）for 30 to 60 minutes a day lost weight even if they didn't change any other lifestyle habits. Another American study found that people who walked for at least four hours a week gained less weight than couch potatoes as they got older. Researchers at the University of Massachusetts medical school found that people who walked every day had 25 percent fewer colds than those who sat a lot. Best of all, walking makes you feel good about yourself "For people suffering from depression, walking three to four times a week for 30 minutes has been shown to lift their mood,” says Knight.
But how to walk your way to weight loss and wellness? Health experts recommend that we should walk 10,000 steps a day to stay healthy. Actually, you would probably need to walk at least 16,000 steps a day to lose weight. "Your workout plans depend on your level of fitness. You should aim to progress by increasing your walking time by five minutes every two weeks, and walk a bit faster. In just three months, the results should speak for themselves," says Knight.
1.What is the latest fitness trend according to the passage?
A.Brisk walking. B.Losing weight.
C.Working out in a gym. D.Exercising with a personal trainer.

When kids believe they can achieve success in math and reading, they are more likely to achieve high test scores in those subjects, new research suggests.
Researchers used one US data set (1,354 American children) and one UK data set (13,901 British children) to measure self-concept and standardized assessments of early and later academic achievement. Self-concept is how students perceive（感知）their abilities to succeed on academic tasks. The data involved youth aged 5 to 18.
The study considered children’s earlier achievement and their characteristics and backgrounds, including birth weight, race, gender, age, and their mother’s education.
The researchers found that children’s self-concept of their ability in math predicted later math achievement, while their self-concept of their ability in reading predicted later reading achievement.
The finding suggests that the links between self-concept of ability and later achievement are specific to areas; that is, there is a link from students’ self-concept about reading to reading achievement, and from students’ self-concept about math to math achievement.
“It is not unusual to see standardized measures of achievement predict achievement later in schooling, but it shows that there is more to understand.” says study coauthor Pamela Davis-Kean.
The research also showed that success was not limited to students who perform at the top levels.
“It involves in students with different levels of achievement in math and reading,” says Maria Ines Susperreguy, an assistant professor at Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Chile, who led the study. “Even the lowest-performing students who had a more positive view of their math and reading abilities had higher levels of achievement in math and reading.”
Researchers say they don’t know what parents or students did to create these beliefs, but it’s an issue they will research further.
1.What can we know about the children in the study?
A. They succeeded in maths. B. Their ages ranged from 5 to 18.
C. They were from all over the world. D. They were well-performing children.
2.What was considered when scientists did the research?
A. Mother’s career. B. Children’s weight.
C. Children’s age. D. Family background.
3.What inspiration can we get from this text?
A. Success lies in hard work.
B. Intelligence is a must to success.
C. Abilities can contribute to success.
D. Positive view matters much in success.
4.What will the researchers probably study in the future?
A. The effect of children’s beliefs.
B. Students’ learning methods.
C. Children’s future achievements.
D. Ways to develop children’s confidence.

As more and more books become movie adaptations, I can’t help but think how this will affect English classes in America. Thinking back to my years in middle and high school—ten years ago, I would be rewarded if I had read a number of classics. Today, a majority of those books are now also movies: Life of Pi, The Great Gatsby, Much Ado About Nothing and Anna Karenina, to name a few.
Even modern books such as The Hunger Games and Harry Potter have been adapted for the big screen. In discussion with my students, I often hear them say they are not going to read books because movies will come out soon, which makes me wonder what effect movie adaptations have on modern-day students. Will the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) encourage them to read books more carefully or to use movies to improve their understanding of the text?
The CCSS requires students to provide text-based evidence when reading and discussing a book. By focusing on such evidence, teachers can pull specific details from a book that may have not made the final cut when the book was adapted for the big screen. For instance, after reading and watching The Hunger Games, there were a number of details from the book that were missing from the film-many people were disappointed with Rue’s meek（温顺的）movie role. A student who failed to read The Hunger Games would not quite understand Rue’s impact on the games in the same way as someone who had read the book and remembered all the details that went into her death.
I am not saying the CCSS will stop students from cutting corners, but I believe if teachers use the support the CCSS provides, it can be a great roadway to ensure all students are digging deep into texts and not just hitting the play button.
1.Ten year ago, students in America were ____.
A. fond a reading all kinds of novels
B. forbidden to discuss movies in class
C. not allowed to watch movies in the cinema
D. encouraged to read many literature works
2.Which of the following might be the effect that movie adaptations have on modern-day student? ____
A. They spend less time in studying.
B. They can’t understand English texts.
C. They spend less time in reading.
D. They discuss movies more frequently.
3.What can we learn from the third paragraph? ____
A. The Hunger Games is the worst movie adaptation.
B. It is a waste of time reading and discussing a book in class.
C. Movie adaptations may bring trouble in understanding the books.
D. Rue’s impact on the games is perfectly presented in the movie.
4.According to the text, it seems that the CCSS ____.
A. prevents students watching movies
B. provides students with well-known movies
C. encourages students to write novels
D. provides guidance on teaching and learning.
