【題目】A warm drink of milk before bed has long been the best choice for those wanting nights sleep. But now a study has found it really does help people nod off-if it is milked from a cow at night.

Researchers have discovered that" night milk" contains more melatonin(褪黑激素) which has been proven to help people feel sleepy and reduce anxiety.

The study, by researchers from Seoul, South Korea, involved mice being fed with dried milk powder made from cows milked both during the day and at night.

While the effect of cows milk harvested at different time has not been tested on humans up to now, taking melatonin drugs has been suggested to those who are struggling to fall asleep at night.

Country music, sometimes is called country-western, comes by two kinds of music. One is traditional music from the eastern United States. The other is traditional cowboy music from the west. The singers usual play guitars. At first it is popular mostly in the South. And during World War II, thousands of Southerners went to the Northeast and Midwest to work in the factories. They took their music with them. Soldiers which were from the rest of the country went to army camps in the South learned country music. Thus they became popular all over country.

【題目】The similarities between elephant and human behavior has been a curiosity to scientists worldwide. These huge beasts are not so different from us. Their devotion to their family is just as powerful as the friendships between humans. In order to prevent future elephant attacks, people must first understand the similarities between elephants and themselves.

Because deaths are felt so deeply in elephants, memories of people harming or killing other members are not forgotten. Due to the Uganda-Tanzania War in Africa, poaching (偷獵) elephant increased during the 1970’s and continued, despite government restrictions. However, ecologists like Eve Abe did not see this as simple poaching; they saw it as a “mass destruction. “Elephants that have witnessed the murder of a matriarch, are more likely to become violent and attack humans. Many aggressive elephants do not act without reason; they are suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). At a young age, humans invade their life, kill their parents, and ultimately destroy their peaceful environment. More and more calves live neglected lives without a mother figure, and have to become a parent early for survival. Humans that had a difficult childhood or early family life also suffer from aggression and pain. Young elephants have been known to have “nightmares,” waking up suddenly and screaming. These are clearly signs of stress, as males grow up to be increasingly hostile (敵對的) humans and target certain villages where painful experiences had occurred.

Although many see elephants as massive, violent, and simple-minded animals, their social structure is not unlike many human societies. Humans and elephants have been on parallel paths. However, if people continue practicing ignorance over the cruel treatment of these creatures, then collision will become inevitable. Cruel treatment of elephants still goes on, but by understanding the similarities between us, it can be stopped.

1In order to stop the hostile behavior of elephants, people should lay emphasis on ________.

A. stopping harming or killing the group members of elephants

B. understand the similarities between elephants and humans

C. taking good care of the young elephants

D. carrying out the government restrictions

2What does the underlined word “matriarch” mean?

A. young elephant.

B. male elephant.

C. strong elephant.

D. mother elephant.

3What can we infer from the passage?

A. Young elephants will grow up to be violent easily.

B. Humans and elephants have the same social structure.

C. Sometimes young elephants are forced to grow up.

D. Elephants attack villages when painful experiences occur.

4Why should we take good care of the young kids?

A. Because early family life counts.

B. Because they will be aggressive when grown up.

C. Because humans and elephants are on parallel paths.

D. Because signs of stress have to be stopped.

【題目】從A到F中選擇合適的一句,分別填入1題到5題中。注意:有一項多余項。
A. The benefits of visiting museums
B. Educational functions
C. Places for collections of objects
D. The history of museums
E. Precious chance to see famous masterpieces
F. Ways to improve their collections
Museums are places where collections of objects are preserved and put on show. The objects may be anything found in nature made by man. There are museums devoted to art, science, history, industry and technology.
But museums are no longer just storehouse for collections. Today nearly all museums, large or small, carry on educational programs. Museums offer guided tours, lectures, films, music recitals, art lessons, and other attractions. They organize field trips and clubs. They publish guides to help visitors to gain a better understanding of the collections.
All museums share a common aim —— to attract visitors and help them to understand and enjoy the collections. Museums are always on the watch for new additions to their collections. Works of art are bought from art dealers and private collectors. Museums also accept gifts, but the large museums no longer accept everything that is offered to them. They accept only objects of collections that meet their high standards.
Museums often arrange loan exhibitions of important works from private owners, art dealers and other museums. In this way a famous masterpiece may be viewed by people who otherwise might never have the chance to see it. For example, in 1963 the Metropolitan Museums of Art in New York city exhibited one of the world's most famous ladies —— Mona Lisa, painted by Leonardo Da Vinci. The government of France had lent the painting to the United States. Attendance at the Metropolitan reached an all-time high during the month Mona Lisa was shown there.
What is to be gained from visiting museums? Museum exhibits can teach us about the world in which we live —— the materials it is made of, the trees and plants that cover it, and the animals that have lived on it since its beginning. We can learn about the activities of man —— his history and development as well as his accomplishments in arts and crafts. Most people see a great work of art for the first time in a museum. We cannot all be explorers or collectors in other lands. But in a museum we can see for ourselves the objects that have been gathered from every part of the world.
