In fact, the room was not made to be a gift. It designed for the palace of Frederick I. However, the next King of Prussia, Frederick William I, whom the amber room belonged, decided not to keep it. In 1716 he gave them to Peter the Great. And then , the Czar sent him a troop of his best soldiers. So the Amber Room became part of the Czar’s winter palace in St Petersburg. Late, Catherine II had the Amber Room moved to a palace outside St Petersburg when she spent her summers. She told her artists to add more details in it. In 1770 the room was completed the way how she wanted. Almost six hundred candles lit the room, and it’s mirrors and pictures shone like gold. Sad, although the Amber Room was considered one of the wonders of the world, it is now missed.

The pupils of Grangetown High have been busy getting to know their newest and tallest classmate — a 7-meter-tall giraffe outside their school.
The giraffe is a huge sculpture (雕像). The school’s headmaster noticed it in an artist’s garden as he drove past one day, and thought it would be perfect for his school. “I knew everyone would love it,” he said, “because our basketball team is known as the Grangetown Giraffes, and they wear giraffes on their shirts. So I asked them to write to the artist, asking how much it would cost to buy the giraffe. He was very kind and got it ready to deliver (递送) in six weeks — all for nothing! It was expected to arrive one Sunday morning, so that the pupils would see it when they got to school on Monday — at that time they had no idea that we were getting it.”
The artist, Tom Bennett was a university professor of chemistry before he retired in 2012 and only took up metalwork a couple of years ago. “I’ve always drawn pictures,” he said. I can even remember doing it on my first day at school — I drew a horse. I wanted it to be the best horse picture ever, but I don’t think I succeeded.” Tom’s first metalwork was a bicycle on which he and his wife could go cycling together, “It was the most uncomfortable bike ever created,” he said, “so I gave up making bicycles and went into sculpture instead.”
Meanwhile the pupils at Grangetown High are very happy with their new classmate. “We’re going to hold a competition to give it a proper name,” said one girl. “Everyone likes the expression on its face, so perhaps that will give us some ideas.”
1.What can we learn about the giraffe according to the text?
A. It was specially made for a basketball team.
B. It was given to Grangetown High for free.
C. It was as tall as a basketball player.
D. It was sent to Grangetown High on Monday.
2.How did the pupils probably feel when they got to school on Monday?
A. surprised B. sad
C. shy D. confident
3.Which of the following is TRUE about Tom Bennett?
A. He visited Grangetown High as a professor.
B. He did well in drawing, especially horses.
C. He learned a lot about sculpture at university.
D. He showed interest in art at an early age.
4.What’s the main idea of the text?

B. A metal giraffe arrived at Grangetown High.
C. Tom Bennett is famous as a sculptor.
D. The Grangetown Giraffes is a strong team.

As is often the case, parents are very shocked to discover their children have lied to them for the first time. But new research has suggested many parents may not even notice many of the lies their children tell them.
Psychologists have discovered that most parents are over-confident in their children’s honesty and this may impair their ability to discover a lie.
The findings may help to explain why some parents seem to be willing to let their children get away with almost anything even in the face of the evidence. They say parents suffer from a “truth bias(偏见)” with their own youngsters, but when faced with lies from other people’s children, they have less difficulty telling if a statement is true or not.
Dr Angela Evans, a psychologist at Brock University in Canada, said, “The close relationship that parents share with their own children may lead to parents failing to detect their children’s lies. Parents’ truth bias may result in parents being less suspicious of their children, allowing them to successfully cheat them.”
Most children are thought to start lying as early as two years old but start telling more believable lies at around the age of four years old. Learning how to lie is considered as a key part of cognitive(认知的) and social development in children. But many parents are shocked when their children start lying to them. In their study, Dr Evans and her colleagues filmed 108 children aged between 8 and 16 as they performed a test after being asked not to look at the answers. They were then asked afterwards if they had looked, with 50 truthfully denying looking, 49 lying about looking and 9 admitting to looking.
Videos of those denying looking were then shown to 152 parents of children aged 8 to 16, 80 of whom had children who had taken part in the test. The researchers found that the parents were less able to spot lies told by their own children than by other people’s children.
1.What does the underlined word “impair” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.Show. B.Develop. C.Recognize. D.Damage.
2.When lying to their parents, children can’t be easily found because ________.
A.their parents aren’t prepared for the lies
B.their parents can’t notice any of their lies
C.they are very good at hiding their lies
D.they know how to lie to their parents
3.What does Dr Evans want to find about children’s lying?
A.What makes parents lose trust in their children.
B.What causes children to tell lies to their parents.
C.What makes parents fail to see their children’s lies.
D.What affects children’s relations with their parents.
4.What can be inferred from Dr Evans’s study in the last two paragraphs?
A.Parents tend to protect their own children.
B.Lying is a part of children’s development.
C.Children aged 8 to 16 are very likely to tell lies.
D.Parents can easily judge lies told by children of others.
