There was a kingdom long, long ago. It was ruled by king who loved riddles. Once a year the king made a new riddle. He gave a prize to the person who could solve the riddle.

There was a baker who also lived in this kingdom. Everyone agreed that he baked the finest breads. The baker had almost everything he needed except for a horse. If the baker had a horse, he could sell his fine breads from one end of the kingdom to the other.

One year the king made a new riddle that puzzled everyone. "I will give a prize to the person who can solve my riddle, " the king said. Whoever wins will have the pick of one of my strongest horses." He then drew a line down the middle of the courtyard "Make this line shorter without crasing(清除) any part of it," the king challenged.

People came from far and wide. They looked at the line and squinted at it. They even put their noses to the ground and scratched their heads.

"How can you make a line shorter without erasing any part of it?" the people in the crowd asked each other. Some of them tried. The dressmaker kicked dirt(泥土)over the line to hide it. The farmer poured water over the line to make it disappear. None of these efforts worked, and the people went home disappointed. Everyone was puzzled about how to solve this new riddle.

A week passed, and nobody had any new ideas. Then one day the baker came into the courtyard with a bag of flour(面粉).

"Your Majesty, "the baker said to the king," I can make your line shorter without erasing any part of it. "Then the baker opened his bag of flour. He poured out a line of flour right next to the king's line. The line the baker made was longer than the king's line.

"Now, good king, "the baker smiled, "your line is shorter."

The people were amazed. The king laughed and clapped his hands. "You have won the prize. I will give you a horse of your choice."

The baker was excited. Now he could sell his breads from one end of the kingdom to the other.

Beijing Opera is the most representative of all Chinese traditional dramatic art forms and the largest Chinese opera form. Having a history of about 200 years, it is developed from absorbing(吸收)many other dramatic forms, mostly from the local drama 'Huiban', which was popular in South China during the 18th century. It is a scenic(戏剧的)art integrating music, performance, literature, aria, and face painting.

Theatrical art forms in many other countries do not present singing, dancing and spoken parts in one single drama. An opera singer, for example, neither dances nor speaks on stage; there are no singing or dancing parts in a modern play; in a dance drama, the dancer has no speaking role and does not sing either. Traditional Chinese drama, including Beijing Opera, is a kind of entertainment which includes spoken parts, singing, dancing and acrobatics.

In addition to its presence in China, Beijing Opera has spread to many other places. Mei Lanfang, one of the most famous performers(表演者)of all time, was the first to introduce Beijing Opera to foreigners and made highly successful tours to foreign countries.

"You will be puzzled(困惑)all the way through and a little bored from time to time; but you will be charmed and interested. You will be strongly attracted to Beijing Opera even if you know nothing of the dramatic background. "This is how one American traveller described his firs experience in watching Beijing Opera.

Beijing Opera is China′s national opera and it is full of Chinese cultural traditions. Welcome to China and enjoy Beijing Opera!

There are almost as many ways to write as there are kinds of texts. Some writers cannot produce a word unless they are poised behind a desk, while others prefer to write sitting outdoors or in noisy restaurants. Some writers create an entire work before going back to read what they have written, while others may rewrite a single paragraph many times before moving on. Individual writers' techniques may be different, but successful writers do have one thing in common; the writing process(步骤). The writing process is made up of four stages, and each stage involves certain activities. The chart below summarizes what happens during each stage of the writing process.

Prewriting

●Choose your topic.

●Identify your purpose and audience, and select a writing form appropriate to that purpose and audience.

Writing

a Draft(草稿)

●Revise the draft to improve its content, organization, and style.

Publishing

●Proofread, or edit your final draft.

●Publish or share your finished writing with readers.

●Reflect on your writing experience.

Bats are the only mammals that can fly a great distance, but they have another ability. Many bats live a very long time for an animal their size.

European researchers are studying bats to understand why they live so long. They hope to make discoveries to fight the aging process (过程) in human beings.

Last week, the group of scientists said they had found important biological qualities in some bat species. The group studied bat chromosomes (染 色 体), a line of genes found in the nucleus(核) of cells. The scientists were most interested in parts connected to the ends of the chromosomes. They are called telomeres(端 粒). Telomeres protect the ends of chromosomes, which shorten each time a cell divides. Scientists believe this shortening process causes cells to break down.  

A report on bats was published this month in the journal Science Advances.

Among the leaders of the study was Emma Teeling, a biologist with University College Dublin in Ireland. Teeling said studying long﹣living mammals that have developed ways to fight aging "is another way to prove the molecular(分 子) basis of extended ‘health length.'" She added that studying bats made scientists able to learn more about the processes "that drive healthy aging."

The European researchers studied 493 bats from four bat species. The group used information that had been gathered over more than 60 years. Of these animals, the greater mouse﹣eared bat generally lived the longest, an average of 37 years.

The scientists said this and a related species, which are grouped together under the name Myotis, had telomeres that did not shorten with age. Another Myotis bat holds the record for oldest age, reaching 41 years.

The scientists' findings suggest that these bats' cells have the ability to keep and repair their telomeres. This, they said, helps guard against the aging process. Based on its body size, a bat like the greater mouse﹣eared bat would be expected to live four years. But, these mammals have been found to live nearly 10 times longer than that

The scientists found that Eighteen of these are bats. The only exception is an unusual African rodent, the naked mole rat.

(1)Which sentence can be put at the end of Paragraph 3?  

A.This makes scientists able to study bats.

B.That's why bats can fly a great distance.

C.They say this is what causes aging.

D.They discover the cells connected to humans.

(2)Why do some species of bats live a very long time?  

A.Because they have a line of long﹣living genes out of the cells.

B.Because their cells have the ability to keep and repair their telomeres.

C.Because they have another ability to live longer without any food or water.

D.Because telomeres protect the ends of chromosomes to stop cells dividing.

(3)The underlined word "that" refers to  

A.four years

B.body size

C.the aging process

D.the ability to repair

(4)What's the best title of the passage?  

A.Differences Between Long﹣Living Animals

B.A Science Report on Chromosomes

C.Do Bats Hold the Secret to Long Life?

D.Are Humans and Bats Similar in Protecting Themselves?
