It was a large, old, wooden house and my room was on the top floor. I jumped out of bed, opened the door and stepped
19、 outside the house. There was full of thick smoke. I began to run, but as I was still only half-awake, instead of going towards the stairs I went in the opposite direction. The smoke grew thicker and I could see fire all around. The floor became hot under my bare feet. I found an open door and ran i
20、nto a room to get to the window. But before I could reach it, one of my feet caught in something soft and I fell down. The thing I had fallen over felt like a bundle of clothes, and I picked it up to protect my face from the smoke and heat. Just then the floor gave way under me and I crashed to the
21、floor below with pieces of burning wood all around me. I saw a doorway in fire, then I put the bundle over my face and ran. My feet burned me terrible, but I got through. As I reached the cold air outside, my bundle of clothes gave a thin cry, I nearly dropped it in my surprise. Then I was in a crow
22、d gathering in the street. A woman in a night-dress and a borrowed mans coat screamed as she saw me and came running madly. She was the Mayors wife, and I had saved her baby.41.

24、C44.He put the bundle over his face and ran in order to _.A. save the baby B. call for help C. protect his face D. run quicklyB Light travels at a speed which is about a million times faster than the speed of sound. In one second, light travels about 300,000 km, but sound travels only 344m. You can
25、get some idea of this difference by watching the start of a race. If you stand some distance away from the starter, you can see smoke come from his gun before the sound reaches your ears. This great speed of light produces some strange facts. Sunlight takes about 8 minutes to reach us. If you look a
26、t the light of the moon tonight, remember that the light rays left the moon 1.3 seconds before they reached you. The nearest star is so far away that the light which you can see from it tonight started to travel towards you four years ago at a speed of nearly 2 million km per minute. In some cases t
27、he light from one of tonights stars started on its journey to you before you were born. Thus, if we want to be honest, we cannot say “The stars are shinning tonight.” We have to say, “The stars look pretty. They were shining four years ago but their light has only just reached the earth.”45. If you
28、stand 200 meters away from a man who is firing a gun to start a race, you will find out that _.A. you can hear the gun before you see the smoke.B. sound does not travel as fast as light.C. the sound of the gun will reach you before the man fires his gun.D. sound travels about a million times faster

38、grow up, they become curious about different kinds of things. When they are babies, they are interested in the parts of their bodies and in the smiles of their mothers.

39、ings that people have made: wheels, bicycles, cars. And when they are adults, their curiosity continues.

41、hey say that when you are quiet, your heart normally beats sixty-five or seventy-five times a minute. Your heart is a pump (泵) that pumps blood to all parts of the body.

42、them. The muscles need oxygen, too . So your brain sends a signal to the heart. The signal means that the muscles need more nutrition and oxygen. Then the heart beats fast and sends blood quickly to the muscles. It may beat 90 to 140 times a minute.Of course, scientists cannot answer all of our ques
43、tions. If we ask, “Why does the ocean water taste salty” scientists will say that the salt comes from rocks. When a rock gets very hot or very cold, it cracks. Rain falls into cracks. The rain then carries the salt into the earth and into the rivers. The rivers carry the salt into the ocean. But the
44、n we ask, “What happens to the salt in the ocean? The ocean does not get saltier every year.” Scientists are not sure about the answer to this question.We know a lot about our world, but there are still many answers that we do not have, and we are curious.52According to the passage, which of the fol
45、lowing statements is true? APeople are curious in the same way. BPeople in different countries are interested in different things. CMen and women are curious about different things. DPeople of different ages are interested in different things 53Scientists who work with the biological sciences study_
