Not only was he taking a turn，not only did he have a friend join in as well，but he was passing on the lesson to the next generation！

3．I was on vacation，and in my mind，vacation does not mean setting my hotel room alarm clock for 6am．But when you're in Aruba and hoping to reserve a beachside palapa（简陋草棚），that's exactly what you do．
Tourists begin lining up at the crack of dawn to secure these umbrella-like wood structures that are covered with dried and woven palm leaves．They then place towels on chairs and call them theirs for the day，whether they remain there or not．I knew nothing of this beach code of ethics on my first day in Aruba．I saw an empty chair covered with a towel and took it．It was a big mistake．
For many visitors，a week bathing in the sun is the only activity they wish to pursue．It sounded good to my girlfriend，Barbara，and me after Boston's awful winter．Six more inches of snow was predicted on the day we left．The sun，the sand，and the beach seemed just about right．
Aruba's slogan is"One Happy Island"，and it doesn't take long to understand why．Aruba is said to be on"island time"．Translation：No one is in a rush to do anything．When in Aruba，you go with the flow，however slow and lazy that might be．
Cooling trade winds，white sandy beaches，turquoise（蓝绿色）waters，and dazzling sunsets are all good reasons to visit．But this 20-mile island offers more than lazy days walking on the beach．There is amazing night life，casinos，golf，scuba diving（水肺潜水），fine dining，shopping，and a great national park．
But our first day was spent as you'd expect，swimming in the sea and enjoying cool drinks．Our drink of choice quickly became the Coco Loco．It's as refreshing as it sounds．

A．want to see the sunrise early

10．Butterflies are some of the most fascinating and beautiful insects in the world．Adult butterflies will live about 2to 4weeks．They use their senses of sight，touch，hearing，smell，and taste to survive in the world，find food and mates，lay eggs in an appropriate place，migrate，and avoid hungry enemies．
Butterflies have large compound eyes（复眼），which allow them to see in all directions without turning their heads．Like most insects，butterflies are very nearsighted，so they are more attracted to a sea of flowers than individual plants．
Butterflies do not"see"colors such as red，green，and yellow，but they can sense sunlight，which indicates the direction the sun is shining，as well as ultraviolet light（紫外线），which is present on many flowers and guides butterflies to honey sources．
Butterflies have a very well-developed sense of smell，but it is not in their nose，since they don't have one．Sense receptors are located in their antennae（触角），feet，and many other parts of the body．They can help butterflies find their favorite flower honey food，and mates．
Butterflies'feet have sense organs that can taste the sugar in flower honey，letting the butterflies know if something is good to eat or not．Some females also carefully choose host plants by tasting to find appropriate places to lay their eggs．Adult butterflies feed their babies using a long tube．Butterflies force blood into the tube to straighten it out，allowing them to feed．Butterflies get all their food from this tube．
Butterflies don't have ears．Instead they"hear"sounds through their wings by sensing changes in sound vibrations（振动）．
Butterflies may possess senses we don't even know about yet，because their body structure is very different from ours，and therefore difficult to understand，when observed through our own human senses．

28．How do butterflies hear sounds？C
A．Using their feet to sense the vibration of things
B．Using their ears to listen directly
C．Using their wings to sense the sound vibrations
D．Using their antennae to judge the sound
29．Why do female adult butterflies carefully choose the host plants？B
A．To find high-qualified honey．
B．To find a proper place for their eggs．
C．To make it easier for them to hide from the enemies．
D．To have a good place for living．
30．The text mainly focuses onB．
A．butterflies'living habits
B．butterflies'senses
C．butterflies'daily activities
D．butterflies'beauty．

20．A lack of confidence，bullying（欺辱弱小）and depression are the things that Canadian parents fear most for their children，according to a new national survey．
Sixty-two percent of parents see a lack of confidence as a threat to the long-term success of their children，says the survey，which was conducted by the Marketing Research and Intelligence Association．
Sixty percent of parents fear what bullying would do to their children and 57percent worry about depression．Surprisingly，things like drug and alcohol abuse are much lower down in the list of worries．
"The fact that we have a growing number of parents and schools coming to us with an increased demand for services suggests that children need help，"said Bruce MacDonald，president of the Marketing Research and Intelligence Association．
"The high percentage of parents who fear their children will lack confidence is somewhat surprising，"MacDonald said．"Parents expect their kids to have their own sense of self-respect and self-worth，so that they would be confident enough to make the right decisions when necessary．"
Of the parents surveyed，97percent said they thought guidance from a patient adult could help troubled teenagers and children．
"More and more parents and schools are reaching out and saying they need to find additional support，"MacDonald said．"I think society has changed over time．It's busier now，and parents might not necessarily have the time to spend with their children as they used to．"

A．An advanced hospital．
B．A special school for troubled children．
