第四天 一．美文晨讀 If you put a buzzard in a pen six to eight feet square and entirely open at the top, the bird, in spite of its ability to fly, will be an absolute prisoner. The reason is that a buzzard always begins a flight from the ground with a run of ten to twelve feet. Without space to run, as is its habit, it will not even attempt to fly, but remain a prisoner for life in a small jail with no top. The ordinary bat that flies around at night, who is a remarkable nimble creature in the air, cannot take off from a level place. If it is placed on the floor or flat ground, all it can do is to shuffle about helplessly and, no doubt, painfully, until it reaches some slight elevation from which it can throw itself into the air. Then, at once, it takes off like a flash. A bumblebee if dropped into an open tumbler will be there until it dies, unless it is taken out. It never sees the means of escape at the top, but persists in trying to find some way out through the sides near the bottom. It will seek a way where none exists, until it completely destroys itself. 　 In many ways, there are lots of people like the buzzard, the bat and the bumblebee. They are struggling about with all their problems and frustrations, not realizing that the answer is right there above them. 二．詞匯訓練 1. He ______ ______ ______ （習慣于）getting up early. 2.

Bees must learn which flowers contain their food from the smells of the flowers. 1 the bees do not learn which smells mean food, they will starve. Researchers in Britain found that pesticides 2 (use) by farmers and gardeners can switch off the part of a bee’s brain that is responsible 3 associating smells with food. Lead researcher Dr. Geraldine Wright said pesticides could seriously impact the 4 (survive) of honeybee colonies. She said, ―Bees that cannot learn will not be able to find food. This also 5 (mean) bees will not pollinate (給……授粉) crops and wild plants. Bee populations around the world have been declining. Scientists have searched for a long time for a reason 6 so many bees are disappearing. This new research may be 7 important clue. However, the British government does not want to stop the use of the pesticides that may prevent bees from learning. 8 wants to carry out more tests to make sure pesticides are the real reason for the decrease in the number of bees. A spokeswoman from the Friends Of The Earth charity said the government must act 9 (soon) rather than later. ―Bee health is far too urgent to wait 10 more research has been completed. Controls should be placed on these pesticides until bee safety can be guaranteed, she said. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 四．完型填空 Recently, I experienced a wonderful lesson in how little things still mean a lot. My home is on the Big Island of Hawaii. About a month ago, when I 1 my car and was about to drive off, I 2 at the roadside. A piece of paper 3 my eye. I picked it up and read it 4 . Instantly, I was grateful that I had done that. The form turned out to be a receipt from the State Motor Vehicle Division, documenting the owners’ 5 of their Vehicle’s Registration fees. Quickly, I put myself in their shoes and 6 : no one would throw this away, especially 7 it was current. I also looked over the form for contact or any personal 8 , perhaps a license tag or telephone number. But that seemed 9 . The form had been blown by the wind, so 10 would I find the owners? Had it been lying there for a few minutes or a week? So I checked the date and 11 the names of the owners, who must 12 in our town, I believed that the best and easiest step to take was to put the form in a(n) 13 addressed to the couple and mail it by post. Further, I imagined that if I had posted the receipt to a wrong 14 ,how frantic（慌亂的）I’d be. But it was much 15 to attempt to return it than to leave them angry, upest, etc. over the 16 , so I did as I thought. My hunch（預感）was right. On the weekend, a happy couple 17 my house and brought me a big gift. They said they had panicked（恐慌）and 18 the receipt madly everywhere before giving up. Without it they would have to 19 another $8,000.

I can well remember an incident that happens on a rainy Sunday afternoon. I was on my way to the bookstore and was waiting the green light at a crossing when a girl of about ten was knocked on by a passing car, it drove off quickly. A man immediately rushed to a girl to give her first aid and I joined in without hesitation. Luckily she was not badly injured but we sent her to the nearest hospital. Comparing with the escaped driver, I am proud of what I did. As a member of society, I am aware of that being responsible is that it takes to make a better society.  第四天 二．詞匯訓練 1.is/gets used to 2.apology 3.absorbs 4.experienced 5.afford 6.exchanged 7.risked 8.majority 9.booked 10.put up 三．語法填空 1.
