Move over Psy. There’s a new viral music video on the Internet that’s getting millions of people dancing and laughing. Psy is a singer who created Gagnam Style, a music video which featured a catchy tune and interesting dance.
The new music video called The Fox (What does the fox say?) has recently gone viral. At 123 000 000 views, it may even catch up to Gagnam Style. The video asks the question, “What does the fox say?” It’s a good question. And it seems, at least according to the music video, there is no good answer.
Actors in the video dress up like the animals they’re singing about. One of the brothers dresses up like a fox. There is a surprising and silly dance in the video that takes the viewer a bit off-guard. The video’s appeal is the song’s simple rhythm and catchy chorus (副歌).
The makers of the video never expected the video to do well or even to be taken seriously. In fact, it started out as a joke. The song was written by two brothers from Norway, Vegard and Bard Ylvis ker. The brothers have their own late-night talk show in Norway. They thought the video would be so bad that it would give them something to talk about on their show.
On their website, they say the video was “supposed to entertain a few Norwegians for three minutes — and that’s all.” But people started loving it. Some people say that once you listen to the delightfully silly song, you want to listen to it again and again.
The brothers have been guests on some major North American talk shows. They say they’re happy about the success of their video, but they know that tomorrow something else could come along and be even bigger.

You can love them or hate them, but no matter which tourist destination you visit, chances are you'll see someone with their head buried in a Lonely Planet guidebook．
Lonely Planet is one of the world's largest travel guide brands, publishing more than 500 different guides in eight languages．The popular brand also produces television shows, websites and podcasts (播客) all devoted to travel.
Some people praise Lonely Planet books because they make traveling easy and affordable．They also save time and make sure you don't miss the best things.
They also provide the reviews of hostels, hotels, restaurants and ticket information about your destination.
This can be great if you're a nervous traveler, or if you haven't traveled by yourself before．If you're in a country where you don't speak the language, sometimes there's nothing better than getting into a taxi and opening up a guidebook．You simply point to a map that directs the taxi driver to a hostel that's cheap and clean, with friendly staff and cold beer.
But others criticize Lonely Planet and other travel guide publishers like them．They say guidebooks take the fun and spontaneity (自发性) out of traveling, and that part of the enjoyment of travel comes from the fact that anything can happen．They also regret that if you follow a guidebook, you'll end up doing the same thing and having the same experience as everyone else．You might end up seeing the same group of people over and over, because everyone is reading the same book and following the same route.
Another criticism of travel guides is that they have a large impact on local communities．For example, some locals devote their lives to behaving in ways that attract tourists．They pretend to live a traditional lifestyle, wear traditional clothes and live in traditional houses in order to attract the tourist dollar．
1.The Lonely Planet guidebook can bring you the following advantages EXCEPT that _____.
A．you can speak a foreign language when opening a guidebook
B．you can easily find a nice place to stay in a strange city
C．it provides lots of useful information about your destination
D．it can help you save time and money when traveling
2.People criticize the guidebook because ________.
A．it is not as useful as most travelers expect
B．tourist destinations will be crowded if everyone follows the same route

3.What do we know about the Lonely Planet guidebook from the text?
A．It's a world-famous brand only producing guidebooks for travelers.
B．It's very useful to a person who's nervous about touring an unfamiliar place.
C．It's very useful to a tourist who likes to repeat others' experiences.

In the tenth grade，I began working for free at a vet’s that was run by a friend. I wanted to get experience for what I thought would be my future job. However，on one particular Saturday morning I learnt something perhaps more important.
The hospital was in the middle of one of the poorer sections of the city and some people could only pay for the most basic treatments. On this Saturday，a man and his young son，who was probably about 7 years old，walked in with a small cat in a cardboard box. There was something wrong with the cat’s left eye. But the man could not afford to pay for the cost of the medicine. He kept quiet for a while，and then he asked where the nearest animal shelter was. Hearing this，his son cried and started to argue with him. All of a sudden，an older woman who was sitting in the waiting room stood up，walked up to the counter，and told the man that she would pay for the cost. The man thanked her and the son got to keep a healthy cat.
I always thought it was the right thing to help out a needy person，but I only saw people do acts of kindness on TV or in movies. What the woman did made me believe that these things do happen in real life，and quite often.
Now，when I can’t decide whether to help someone who is in need，I remember this woman，and then I have the courage to step up to the plate. Sometimes other people follow.
1.We can infer that a vet’s is most probably a hospital for .
A．kids B．the poor C．animals D．women
2.For what purpose did the writer work at the vet’s?
A．To help out his friend
B．To make some pocket money
C．To gain some work experience
D．To learn more about society
3.What would the man probably do with the cat if the woman didn’t help him?
A．Take it home without treatment.
B．Give it to someone on the street.
C．Give it to the woman.
D．Give it up.
4.We can learn from this passage that .
A．the man doesn’t like keeping a cat
B．the older woman often helps people out
C．the man’s son didn’t agree to the man’s first decision
D．the hospital often asks for too much money
