As they migrate（迁移) , butterflies and moths choose the winds they want to fly with, and they change their body positions if they start floating in the wrong direction. This new finding suggests that insects may employ some of the same methods that birds use for traveling long distances. Scientists have long thought that insects were simply at the mercy of the wind.
Fascinating as their skills of flight are, migrating behavior has been difficult to study in insects because many long distant trips happen thousands of feet above ground. Only recently have scientists developed technologies that can detect such little creatures at such great heights.
To their surprise, though, the insects weren't passive travelers on the winds. In autumn, for example, most light winds blew from the east, but the insects somehow sought out ones that carried them south and they positioned themselves to navigate directly to their wintering homes.
Even in the spring, when most winds flowed northward, the insects didn't always go with the flow. If breezes weren't blowing in the exact direction they wanted to go, the insects changed their body positions to compensate. Many migrating birds do the same thing.
The study also found, butterflies and moths actively flew within the air streams that pushed them along. By adding flight speeds to wind speeds, the scientists calculated that butterflies and moths can travel as fast as 100 kilometers an hour. The findings may have real-world applications. With climate warming, migrating insects are growing in number. Knowing how and when these pests move could help when farmers decide when to spray their crops.
1. What's the main idea of the text?
A. Windsurfing insects have real direction.
B. Wind helps insects greatly in migrating.
C. Insects migrate with the seasons.
D. Scientists have trouble in observing insects.
2.Scientists originally thought that _____.
A. insects were just blown about by the wind
B. insects chose the winds they wanted to ride
C. insects always waited for their favourable winds
D. insects positioned themselves in the winds
3. It is not easy to study the migrating behavior of the insects because ______.
A. the little creatures can fly very fast
B. their flight is long and high above ground
C. the wind's direction is hard to foresee
D. they have no regular migrating courses
4. We can learn from the text that _____.
A. insects never position themselves when flying low
B. insects travel more easily in autumn
C. insects fly in the way birds do
D. insects rest a lot when the wind pushes them along

American beekeeping operations have been hit hard by what scientists call Colony Collapse Disorder. Almost half of their worker bees have disappeared during the past season. C.C.D. has also been reported in Israel, Europe and South America. Bees fly away from the hive and never return. Sometimes they are found dead; other times they are never found. Many crops and trees depend on pollination （授粉） by bees to help them grow.
A new report says virus may be at least partly responsible for the disorder in honey bee colonies in the United States. This virus is called Israeli Acute Paralysis Virus. It was first identified in Israel in 2004. Ian Lipkin at Columbia University in New York and a team reported the new findings in Science magazine. Doctor Lipkin says the virus may not be the only cause. He says it may work with other causes to produce the collapse disorder.
The team found the virus in colonies with the help of a map of honey bee genes that was published last year. They examined thirty colonies affected by the disorder. They found evidence of the virus in twenty – five of them, and in one healthy colony. The next step is further testing of healthy hives.
The researchers suggested that the United States may have imported the disorder in bees from Australia. They say the bees may carry the virus but not be affected.
The idea is that unlike many American bees, the ability of Australian bees to fight disease has not been hurt by the varroa mite. This insect attacks honey bees, which could make the disorder more likely to affect a hive. Australian bee producers reject these suspicions.
And some researchers suspect that bee production in the United States is down mainly because of the weather. Honey bees gather nectar（花蜜） from flowers and trees. The sweet liquid gives them food and material to make honey. But cold weather this spring in the Midwest reduced the flow of nectar in many flowers. Many bees may have starved. Dry weather in areas of the country could also be playing a part.
Wayne Esaias is a NASA space agency scientist who keeps bees in his free time. He lives in central Maryland, where he has found that flowers are blooming a month earlier than they did in 1970, which may be partly responsible for the disorder. Wayne Esaias is organizing a group of beekeepers to document nectar flow around the country.
1. What is the author’s attitude to the causes of the bee disorder?
A. critical B. neutral
C. supportive D. negative
2. What is the passage mainly about?
A. American beekeeping industry has been strongly influenced by the bee disorder.
B. Studies are being carried out on the causes of the bee disorder, but questions remain.
C. How the causes of the bee disorder in U.S have been found.
D. The bee production in U.S is down.
3. How many possibilities may be involved in the bee disorder according to the passage?
A. Three B. Four C. Five D. Six
4.We can infer that from the passage.
A. Israeli acute paralysis virus should be responsible for the disorder.
B. The solution to the disorder will be found eventually.
C. American bees are more likely to defend themselves against hurt from other insects than Australian ones.
D. Many crop and plant production in U.S may be influenced by the bee disorder.

At a primary school in a small town in the east of South Carolina, second-grade teachers Garneau and Lynne are convinced that separating elementary-age boys and girls produces immediate academic improvement in both genders(性别).
David Chadwell, South Carolina’s coordinator of single gender education says, “Boys and girls learn, hear and respond to their surroundings differently. We can teach boys and girls based on what we now know.”
Male and female eyes are not organized in the same way, he explains. The composition of the male eye makes it sensitive to motion and direction. “Boys interpret the world as objects moving through space,” he says.
The male eye is also drawn to cooler colors like silver and black. It’s no accident boys tend to create pictures of moving objects instead of drawing the happy colorful family, like girls do in their class.
The female eye, on the other hand, is drawn to warmer colors like red, yellow and orange. To attract girls, Chadwell says, the teacher doesn’t need to move as much as in boy’s class. Using descriptive phrases and lots of colors in presentations or on the blackboard gets their attention.
Boys and girls also hear differently. “When someone speaks in a loud tone, girls interpret it as yelling,” Chadwell says. “They think you’re mad and can shut down.” Girls are more sensitive to sounds. He advises girls’ teachers to watch the tone of their voices. Boys’ teachers should sound more forceful, even excited.
A boy’s nervous system causes him to be more cautious when he is standing, moving, and the room temperature is around 69 degrees Fahrenheit. Stress in boys, he says, tends to increase blood flow to their brains, a process that helps them stay focused. Girls are more focused when seated in a warmer room around 75 degrees Fahrenheit. Girls also respond to stress differently. When exposed to threat and conflict, blood goes to their guts(肠道), leaving them feeling nervous or anxious.
These differences can be applied in the classroom, Chadwell adds. “Single gender programs are about maximizing the learning.”
1.What is David Chadwell’s attitude toward separating elementary-age boys and girls while learning?
A. Supportive B. Worried C. Concerned D. Uninterested
2. To engage boy in a class, the teacher ______.
A. must have a moving object in this hand B. needs to wear clothes in warm color
C. has to speak politely D. had better move constantly while teaching
3.Which of the following shows the organization of the passage?
(= Paragraph 1 ‚= Paragraph 2 ƒ= Paragraph 3 ….. ˆ= Paragraph 8)
C. 
D.
4.Which of the following is the best title of the passage?
A. Ways of teaching boys and ways of teaching girls
B. Boys and girls should be separated
C. How boys and girls learn differently
D. How to teach more effectively
5.Which of the following students is most likely to be focused?
A. A boy sitting in a warm room B. A standing boy who is faced with stress
C. A girl standing in a cold room D. A girl who is facing a lot of pressure
