By the age of 10, she was talking about going to Africa to live among the animals there. At the time, in the early 1940s, this was almost impossible 38 women did not go to Africa by themselves.

She expressed her 44 in the idea of studying animals by living in the wild with them, rather than 45 dead animals. Dr. Leakey and Jane 46 planning a study of a group of chimpanzees who were living on the shores of Lake Tanganyika in Kenya. At first, the British government did not pass their plan. At the time, they thought it was too dangerous for a woman to live in the wilds of Africa 47 . But Jane’s mother, Vanne, agreed to join her so that she would not be alone.

C James Naismith, a physical education teacher in Massachusetts, invented basketball in 1891. Naismith’s boss asked him to invent a game that students could play indoors during bad weather. He wanted to find a game that wasn’t as rough as soccer or football. Naismith tied apple baskets to a railing (鐵棍) ten feet above the floor at either end of the gym. The players used a soccer ball. A person sat on a ladder next to each basket at either end of the gym, and threw out the balls that landed in the baskets. To keep t he game from getting too rough, Naismith decided each team would have only five players and that the players could not play the ball with their feet. Two years later, net bags were used instead of baskets. In 1894, Naismith added the backboard behind each net and changed to a larger ball. In 1913, people began using the bottomless nets that are used today. During a basketball game, two teams of five players each throw the ball into two baskets at opposite ends of a court. Players bounce, or dribble the ball to the basket or pass the ball to teammates. A team scores points by getting the ball into their team’s basket. The team with the highest score wins. By the 1900s, basketball was the most popular indoor sport. People in nearly 130 countries play the game. Basketball is especially popular in the United States, China, and Puerto Rico. 54. When did people start to use a basketball? A. In 1891. B. In 1894. C. In 1913. D. In 1900s. 55. What does the underlined word “rough” probably mean? A. Boring. B. Popular. C. Hard. D. Quick. 56. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage? A. The Invention of a Popular Game B. The Rules of the Old Basketball C. What Naismith Found Indoors D. Why People Loved Sports D You have learned about energy. Do you know that HEAT is a form of ENERGY? Yep, this form of energy acts on everything. And, we’re going to look at a few experiments to learn how this form of energy acts and why we need to know all about it. The heat energy of something is decided by how active its atoms(原子)and molecules(分子)are. A hot object is one whose atoms and molecules are excited and show rapid movement. A cooler object’s molecules and atoms will be less excited and show less move ment. When these guys are in the excited state, they take up a lot of space because they’re moving around so fast. When the atoms and molecules settle down, or cool down, they take up less space. If a HOT high-energy atom comes into contact with a cool low-energy atom, the excited atom will loose some of its energy to the cool atom. The two atoms will reach an ener gy level that’s betwe en where they each started out. That level is called Thermal Equilibrium. Experiment: If you have a cup of really hot chocolate and want to cool it down, you may put an ice cube in the cup. After the ice has completely melted (disappeared), the hot chocolate and the melted ice have come to Thermal Equilibrium. Now that you have an idea of what heat is, let’s look at some of the effects of this form of energy. Here’s another experiment. Blow up a balloon, but not all the way. Put the balloon in a refrigerator for about an hour, then take it out. Did it become smaller? Why? It became smaller because the air molecules inside the balloon slowed down and are taking up less space. Now put the balloon in direct sunlight. What happened after it warmed up? Why? From the above experiment, we learned a very important fact—heat causes things to “grow”. We call this Thermal Expansion. If things “grow” when heated, what do you think happens to them when they get cold? If you get a chance to check out some railroad tracks, notice the gaps or separations between the rails. (Don’t get run over by a train!) Thermal expansion and contraction is why those gaps are placed there that way, and why expansion joints are placed in long highway bridges. You’ve probably felt expansion joints on old concrete highways. Remember the “thump–thump” sound as you rode over them? 57. How many experiments are mentioned in the passage? A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five. 58. What is Thermal Equilibrium? A. The fact that hot atoms loose some energy to cool atoms when they meet. B. The fact that there are always the gaps or separations between the rails. C. The fact that heat causes things to increase in size. D. The fact that heat is another form of energy. 59. Why is the first paragraph written? A. To explain what heat energy is. B. To sort energy forms for readers. C. To gi ve examples of heat energy. D. To tell readers what to read here. 60. What is the last paragraph mainly about? A. Why thermal expansion is on the tracks and highways. B. How to check railroad tracks and concrete highways. C. Why railroads and highways are built that way. D. How to remember the “thump–thump” sound. 七、閱讀短文，根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的五個選項中選出能填入空白處的佳選項。選項中有一項為多余選項。（共8分，每小題2分） Something very strange happened to Lisa.
