         One of the most famous scientists to study adaptations (适应能力) was Charles Darwin (达尔文).
    He was born in England in 1809. He wasn't the best student in his school, but when he was 16,his father
    sent him to a medical school. Charles liked spending time outdoors observing (观察) nature more than
    attending medical classes. He dropped out without graduating.
         Next, Charles' father sent him to school to become a minister (牧师). This time he made it to graduation.
    But he didn't want to do the work of a minister. His friends encouraged him to follow his interest in science.
         After graduation, Charles was invited to sail on the Beagle as an unpaid scientist. He wasn't the first
    choice but he was the lucky one to go. The Beagle was to travel to South America and then around the world.
    The crew's task was to make maps of the places they visited.
         On December 27th,1831, Charles Darwin sailed from England on the Beagle. The trip was planned to
    last two years. In fact, it lasted five. During this time, he saw many amazing things. He collected lots of
    plants and animals and took them back to England to study.
         Twenty-three years later, Darwin published a scientific paper with another man named Wallace. Darwin
    described how some animals have adaptations that help them survive. They are passed on to offspring (后代).

    阅读下列短文，从每个小题所给的选项中选出最佳答案。
         A young man was getting ready to finish school. For a long time he had looked forward to getting
    a beautiful sports car. He knew his father could well afford it, so he told him that was all he wanted.
         Then on the morning of his graduation (毕业), his father called him into his private study. His father
    told him how proud he was to have such a fine son, and told him how much he loved him. He handed his
    son a beautiful gift box. Surprised, the young man opened the box and found a lovely Bible (《圣经》) with
    his name on it. Angrily, he raised his voice to his father and said, "With all your money you give me a Bible?"
    He then rushed out of the house, leaving the Bible.
         Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business. He had a beautiful home
    and a wonderful family, but realizing his father was very old, he thought perhaps he should go to see him.

    a phone telling him his father had passed away. He had to come home immediately and take care of the things

    阅读下列短文，从每个小题所给的选项中选出最佳答案。  
         Sixteen years ago a boy gave me an important gift.  It was a smile.      
         It was the early autumn of my first year at a middle school, and my old school was far away.  
    As a result, no one knew who I was.  I was very lonely, and afraid to make friends with anyone. 
    Every time I heard the other students talking and laughing, I felt my heart break. I couldn't talk with 
    anyone about my problems.        
         Then one day, my classmates talked happily with their friends, but I  sat at my desk unhappily as
    usual. At that moment, a boy entered the classroom. I didn't know who he was. He passed me and
    then turned back. He looked at me, with a smile.
          Suddenly, I felt the touch of something bright and friendly. It made me feel happy, lively and warm.
    That smile changed my life. I started to talk with other students and made friends. Day by day, I became
    closer to everyone in my class. The boy with the lucky smile has become my best friend now.
          One day I asked him why he smiled, but he couldn't remember smiling at me!
           It doesn't matter because all the dark days have gone. I believe that the world is what you think it is.
    If you think it lonely, you might always be alone. So smile at the world and it will smile back.

    1. When did the writer get the gift?
    [     ]
    A. When she was 16 years old.
    B. After she made friends with the boy.
    C. In her first year at a middle school.
    D. After she became closer to everyone in her class.
    2. Why was the smile an important gift?
    [     ]
    A. Because the writer's old school was far away.
    B. Because the writer didn't know who the boy was.
    C. Because the smile didn't mean anything to the boy.
    D. Because it made the writer feel happy, lively and warm.
    3. Where does she now think her feeling of unhappiness came from?
    [     ]
    A. From her old school.
    B. From her parents.
    C. From herself.
