阅读下面短文，请根据短文后的要求进行答题。（请注意问题后的字数要求）
[1] Hocus-pocus sounds magical, doesn't it? And the word comes from the world of magic playing in Medieval （中世纪） Europe． In the dictionary Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English, hocus-pocus is explained this way: a method or belief that you think is based on false ideas, e.g．He thinks psychology is a lot of hocus-pocus.
[2] I'm afraid this explanation isn't as interesting as the sounding of the word itself． But then again, the dictionary I mentioned is a dictionary for beginners．One can't expect much from it when it comes to such an interesting word as hocus-pocus．The Merriam-Webster dictionary online, on the other hand, gives a more detailed explanation:（1）sleight of hand;（2）nonsense or sham used especially to cloak deception．And it gives the origin of the word: probably from hocus pocus, imitation of a Latin phrase used by magicians.
[3] This explanation gets to the basic nature of hocus-pocus--exotic（外来的） but meaningless talk by the magician to fool the audience．Watch any magician at work and we'll notice that he sometimes talks constantly while performing tricks, using hocus-pocus, such as ear-catching words, eye-catching hand or body movements, to distract（分散） our attention while he gets a trick done.
[4] Hocus pocus reveals the nonsensical nature of the magician's talk on stage．And it was introduced into the English language probably just on the strength of the rhyming sound of it．Hocus-pocus, lovely.
[5] Well, knowing its origin which is from performing magicians in Europe, I'm sure you will find hocus pocus easier to remember．You'll also learn where to put it into use.
1．What is the passage mainly about? （Please answer within 10 words．）
2．Please list some examples of using "hocus pocus" mentioned in the passage．（Please answer within 10 words．）
① ② ③
3．Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one?
Hocus pocus shows magicians' completely ridiculous and pointless words while performing.
4．Translate the underlined sentence in the passage into Chinese.
5．In what situations do you think we can use hocus-pocus? Why? （Please answer within 30
words．）

Honesty comes in many forms．First there’s self-honesty．Is what people see the real article or do you appear through smoke and mirrors? I find that if I try to be something I’m not, I feel unsure of myself and take out a part from my PBA （personal bank account）．I love how singer Judy Garland put it, “Always be a first-class version （版本） of yourself, instead of a second-class version of somebody else.”
Then there’s honesty in our actions．Are you honest at school, with your parents, and with your boss? If you’ve ever been dishonest, I think we all have, try being honest, and notice how whole it makes you feel．Remember, you can’t do wrong and feel right．This story by Jeff is a good example of that:
In my second year of study, there were three kids in my math class who didn’t do well．I was really good at it．I would charge them three dollars for each test that I helped them pass．I’d write on a little piece of paper all the right answers, and hand them off.
At first I felt like I was making money, kind of a nice job．I wasn’t thinking about how it could hurt all of us．After a while I realized I shouldn’t do that anymore, because I wasn’t really helping them．They weren’t learning anything, and it would only get harder down the road．Cheating certainly wasn’t helping me.
It takes courage to be honest when people all around you are getting away with cheating on tests, lying to their parents, and stealing at work．But, remember, every act of honesty is a deposit （储蓄） into your PBA and will build strength.
1．The underlined part “appear through smoke and mirrors” in the first parapraph means “________”.
A．to be honest B．to be unreal
C．to become clear D．to come from an imagined world
2．Which of the following can best explain Judy Garland’s words?
A．Be your true self rather than follow others.
B．Don’t copy others or you can’t be the first class.
C．Make efforts to be the first instead of the second.
D．Don’t learn from others unless they’re excellent.
3．What does the author expect to show by Jeff’s story?
A．honesty can be of great help.
B．A bad thing can be turned into a good one.
C．Helping others cheat can do good to nobody.
D．One should realize the wrong in his bad deeds.
4．In the last paragraph the author mainly wants to express ________.
A．one must be brave to be honest
B．it’s difficult to be honest when others are not
C．one should be honest when making a deposit
D．honesty in one’s actions can help him in the future

Pets are no strangers to the White House. Many of American Presidents have been animal lovers. In recent times, White House pets have been tame dogs and cats. Long ago, however, presidential pets, like our nation itself, were wilder!
In 1806, President Thomas Jefferson lived in the White House. Passers-by often caught sight of his pet bears. Explorers had discovered these fierce bears, caught a pair of small ones, and sent them to Jefferson. While the President was excited about his bears, his enemies in Congress constantly laughed at his pets, calling the White House “The President’s Bear Garden”
By 1825, the bears were long gone from the White House scene. Now, the building was home to President John Quincy Adams and his crocodile. The green beast actually belonged to General Lafayette, a French hero who had helped the United States win the Revolutionary War. When Lafayette asked Adams to keep the crocodile for him, the President couldn’t refuse. While President Adams babysat the huge crocodile, First Lady Louisa Adams was busy raising thousands of silkworms. She used the silk from the silkworms to make cloth for her dresses.
When President Martin Van Buren moved into the White House in 1837, he brought his tigers with him. At first, Van Buren said the tigers were his. The Sultan of Oman had sent the tigers when Van Buren was elected, so Congress argued that the tigers belonged to the American people. A fight over the tigers continued for months. In the end, Congress sent someone to seize the tigers and put them in a zoo.
Twenty years later, President James Buchanan received another valuable gift when he was in his first year in the White House. This time, the King of Siam sent several elephants! Buchanan had no desire to share his building with the big creatures, so he sent them to the zoo. Buchanan did, however, keep another gift—a pair of birds. They were a fitting symbol of presidential power.
1．How did the Presidents mentioned get their unusual pets?
A．The pets were given to them by others. B．They bought them at the market
C．They got them in the forest. D．Their family members offered them the pets
2．What similar political effect did Jefferson’s bears and Van Buren’s tigers have?
A．The pets made them happy and gay.
B．It took them too much time to look after them.
C．It brought about dissatisfaction with them in Congress.
D．It made people believe that they were animal lovers.
3．According to the passage, we can infer that ________.
A．the pets the Presidents raised were all huge ones
B．the pets the Presidents owned were all their favorite ones
C．the Presidents kept the pets not only at home but in the zoo
D．the Presidents’ pets were not only cared about by their families
4． The passage mainly tells us _______
A．The president’s bear garden B．Historical American presidents’ pets
C．The White House as a zoo D．American presidents’ favorites
